"Xu, wake up!" Zhang Xu was dizzy, and waves of echo-like words came back and forth in his head.
"How long have I been unconscious?" Zhang Xu struggled to hold up a table and staggered out of the cold secret room.
"Xu, you have been unconscious for 12 hours, and it is already 8 o'clock the next morning."
"What?" Zhang Xu burst out in English. He didn't expect that his physique would not be able to endure it. How could Natasha in the video have no expression at that time.
"Would you like to try absorbing titanium metal?"
"Yeah! Let me try."
The result was puzzling. Zhang Xu stood in front of the titanium metal block and didn't react at all. Zhang Xu punched twice and found that there was no tendency to increase his strength.
what happened?
What Zhang Xu doesn't know is why the test subjects are all girls instead of boys. Because the Fara virus will cause instant death in males, and the survival rate is only 0.003%, so it is a miracle that they did not die!
If Xue He hadn't discovered that this medicine was extremely destructive, it almost turned Zhang Xu's arm tissue into black water. In the end, Xue He wrapped the Farra virus in his body, but it couldn't be excreted. It was a time bomb. Zhang Xu, who was unaware, was still worried about whether the potion had expired.
"I won't be able to digest this potion, haha." Zhang Xu shook his head. Even if he tested it with a quantum instrument, there was no improvement at all.
"It shouldn't be. Is there something wrong with those steps? But my daughter is fine too." The system manager's processor was running as fast as a fever, frantically calculating where the problem was.
"Forget it, nothing happened to me anyway." Zhang Xu waved his hand. He felt that it was Xue He who absorbed the potion.
"By the way, is Natasha feeling better? I want to see her."
"Okay, I'll give you permission."
Bah~ The pressure door sprayed out some gas and slowly rose, followed by Natasha's face. She was looking at Zhang Xu with a blank look on her face.
"Natasha?"
"Who are you?" Natasha took a few steps back, leaned against the chair without realizing it, and sat down all of a sudden.
"This is also one of the sequelae, transient amnesia. Metal titanium flows in the blood and sometimes compresses neurons, causing certain memories to be confused or blocked, thus causing transient amnesia."
"Natasha, don't be afraid. This big brother is here to play with you." The system housekeeper jumped out and explained clearly to Zhang Xu while gently comforting the frightened Natasha.
"Really? Brother, are you playing with me?" When Natasha heard this, her blue eyes blinked, like precious gems flashing under the light, and her voice was crisp and sweet, as if she had eaten honey. .
"Yes, Natasha, what do you want to play?" Zhang Xu smiled. Natasha happily took Zhang Xu's hand and jumped up and down. Children are so easy to coax.
"Shall we play riddles?" Natasha hadn't played a good game in a few months. Ever since she was caught in the laboratory here, she could only feel scared.
"Yes." There was a lot of doting in Zhang Xu's eyes. She was like a little angel who came to Zhang Xu in the apocalypse and let herself see his innocent childhood.
"I'll go first! Dad will find a few more difficult ones for me than you. Big brother turned around." Natasha lay in front of a monitor and secretly watched the riddles that the system steward had found for her. "No peeking. .”
"How can I?" Zhang Xu smiled, but he didn't expect that this girl was quite serious.
"A black child never opens his mouth. If he opens his mouth, his tongue will fall out. Guess what it is?" Natasha jumped up and down with joy, her two big eyes curved into crescents.
"So cruel, your tongue fell out when you opened your mouth, tsk..." Zhang Xu really couldn't guess, even if he studied well, but riddles are not about IQ.
Zhang Xu scratched his head, looking rather embarrassed. Not to mention, if he hadn't been defeated by zombies and mutated creatures, he would probably be defeated by this 7-year-old girl.
"The system search is completed, and the answer to the riddle is melon seeds." Zhang Xu secretly rejoiced. He had a nano-Bluetooth headset hidden in his ear. Fortunately, he had the help of a quantum instrument, otherwise he would have been embarrassed today.
"Brother, why can't you guess it?" Natasha grabbed Zhang Xu's arm and shook it. Her golden curly hair moved with it, and her smile was like a blooming flower, which was as charming as a drop of gold.
Zhang Xu scratched the bridge of her straight nose, smiled, and said enthusiastically: "The answer is melon seeds, right?"
Natasha stopped smiling and nodded with a disappointed look on her face: "Ah, I guessed it right." Zhang Xu frowned, what? Are you not allowed to guess correctly?
Natasha waved her little fist and said energetically: "Hmph, this time it will be even harder!"
"You are not afraid of water above, and you are not afraid of fire below; every kitchen has one."
"Haha, it's an iron pot used for cooking, right?"
"Huh? No, brother, you are actually right."
"..."
"Come again!"
"A little girl was born in the middle of the water, wearing a pink shirt and sitting on a green boat."
"This one is simple, it's a lotus flower."
"Wow, big brother, you are so awesome~" with an admiring look.
"That's right, don't look at how I dominated the primary school students' guessing contest and won the first place!" Putting his hands on his hips, someone's face is as thick as the corner of the city wall. Or is Xiao An just a system, otherwise his bragging would have been exposed long ago Dafa.
Just like this, the two of them looked at each other and said something to each other. Natasha was no longer afraid of Zhang Xu, but felt more close to him.
…
"Thank you, she hasn't laughed so heartily for a long time." The system housekeeper looked at Natasha lying on Zhang Xu's lap, sleeping soundly, with bubbles popping up from time to time on her nose.
"This is what I should do."
"I want to ask you a favor later..."
"Natasha, cough, wake up!" The image of the system housekeeper looked like he was vomiting blood, and he was speaking under the old body.
"Ahem!"
"Hmm~ Dad, are you injured?" Natasha, who was confused, saw her father in her heart coughing up blood and immediately started to do it, asking hurriedly.
Natasha was too young to know that the image of her system vomiting blood could be close to being injured.
"Natasha, I'm about to die. Before I die, I..."
"I don't care, I don't care, I just want my father to be alive, woohoo~" Natasha's mood became heightened at one point, and she fell on the screen and cried.
"I hope you follow Brother Zhang Xu, and he will take care of you for the rest of your life on my behalf~" After saying that, the system manager cruelly turned off his screen, and the black screen showed a black silence.
"Dad? Dad? Where have you been? Dad?" Natasha's eyes widened, hoping that this was a joke played by her father on her, a hide-and-seek, but what she answered was the quiet display screen.
"Boooo~ Dad, you and mom are gone, woohoo~" Natasha cried, covering her big red eyes.
At this time, Zhang Xu walked to her side, dipped her tears with a handkerchief, and wiped away her tears meticulously.
"Natasha, I'm sorry. I really can't do anything. I also want to save your father, but..." Zhang Xu felt a little guilty for deceiving a 7-year-old girl, but only in this way can she feel at ease. Follow yourself.
…
Finally, with Zhang Xu's efforts, Natasha choked and pulled Zhang Xu's hand, and just like that, they returned to the original Val Company through an emergency escape device.
The system manager's screen also lit up, and he sighed.
