Seriously, Ryan is very curious about Alice's father. Because he didn't know what it was to make his daughter hate him and love him madly.

Alice could see his confusion in Ryan's expression. "I could feel that my father loved me from the bottom of his heart, and even felt that I was as important as his life. I am also proud of his achievements in alchemy. ”

"But he's been working since I've been sensible, and I don't see him many times a year. And he's worried about my safety, and usually doesn't allow me to leave here when I'm alone. At this point, Alice looked a little frustrated.

"Wait a minute, I can find you a companion. Ryan heard this and suddenly thought of something, "But I'm going to leave for a while." ”

"It's okay, I can read a book. With that, Alice took a book from the cabinet next to her and began to look at it. Ryan hurriedly opened the spatial door and went to the Fallout World to retrieve things, and he didn't get out of the spatial door until half an hour later.

When Ryan came out of the space door, he saw Alice still spreading the book on her lap, but Ryan could feel her nervousness from the unturned pages of the book.

Alice looked up when she heard the commotion, and was surprised to see a cardboard box more than a person tall standing next to Ryan.

"What is this?" Alice put down the book and walked over, then looked at the box curiously.

"It's Mr. Skillful Hands. Ryan pointed to the large box that his men had found while searching an underground warehouse not long ago. "It's a robot that can do housework and chat with you, and it should be similar to the alchemy puppet you have here. In our side, he often worked as a domestic servant or nanny. ”

With that, Ryan waved his wand lightly, and the box automatically peeled off. A robot with three octopus-like eyes appears in front of the two.

"Well, let me look at the manual. Ryan pulled out a small notebook and instructed Alice on how to get the robot to confess as he looked. At the end of all the verification procedures, the robot violently activated the jet below, and the ejector was suspended in mid-air.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Alice. I will be your most loyal companion. You can call me Miss Helen. The robot greeted Alice in a soft female voice.

"The accent reminds me of Curie. Ryan, looking at the French-speaking robot in front of him, thought.

"Can I really be friends with her?" Alice asked Ryan after chatting with Helen the robot for a while. "Seriously, I haven't made a friend like this octopus. ”

"Definitely no problem, friendship is a communication between people's hearts, and it has little to do with appearance. I have a similar friend. After saying that, Ryan took out a photo, which was Curie taking a photo with Ryan in her lab after arriving at Plants vs. Zombies.

"Look, this is my friend. She's a very good doctor, and when she's done with it, maybe you'll get a chance to see her. Because I have the impression that she is very curious, knowing that I have found a new place, she is likely to come and see. ”

"It's amazing, but wouldn't it be a little too selfish for me to keep Miss Helen at home like this?" said Alice, in a voice of uncertainty that was not quite right.

"You're such a good-hearted girl, but you don't need to worry about that for the time being. These robots do not have their own independent souls at first, and only after they have been in close contact with humans for a long time will they slowly realize themselves. At the same time have a soul of their own. For example, my friend, who is in her 200s, was able to form her soul because her three former masters spent their entire lives communicating with her. Let her slowly understand what love is and what self is. ”

"Oh, that's right. Alice nodded, "I once heard my father say that many top-tier alchemy golems were created when they had souls but were mutilated. Only when these puppets have been in real contact with human life for a long time and understand what human beings are, can they gradually complete their souls and become real beings. ”

Speaking of which, suddenly there was a "gurgling" sound. Ryan followed the prestige and found that it was coming from Alice's belly. It's no wonder that Alice probably doesn't have much appetite to eat after she gets sick, even if she just got a nutritional injection to replenish enough nutrients for her, but she is hungry after chatting for so long with an empty stomach.

"Ah, that's a bit of a faux pas. Alice, who was born in an aristocratic family, felt a little embarrassed, and her whole face turned red. "By the way, it's time to eat, Ryan, come too. ”

Following Alice to the dining room, Alice took out plate after plate of dishes from an ornate copper enamel box next to her, each dish at just the right temperature. Seeing Ryan staring at the box in surprise, Alice puffed up her chest and said with some pride: "This is a special invention for me by my father, and any dish can last for a year if you put it in." And the dish is what it looks like when you put it in. Every time my father came home, he would bring me good food from all over the world. ”

Ryan smiled politely and thought, "Alice's father does love her daughter very much, but he really doesn't know much about taking care of babies. What's the difference between this and a rich man's family ordering a hotel takeout every day? In this case, Alice is not crooked, and she still maintains a kind soul like gold, which is really blessed by God. ”

Soon, the table was full of plates. It is a standard set of classic French meals consisting of 13 dishes. It's just that Alice brought up all these dishes for convenience, and did not serve them in the traditional order.

"Ah, I'm sorry. Alice stuck out her tongue. "I'm used to doing this when I'm eating alone at home. ”

"It's okay, I'm not an aristocrat, I don't pay attention to this. But you can tell Helen the robot about this later. As long as you teach her once, she can help you do this. ”

When Ryan sat down and realized that the French meal was for him, Alice opened the door and prepared to go out after putting the plate away. Seeing Ryan looking at her, Alice smiled and said, "My father told me that I can't eat too greasy when I'm sick, so I've been boiling the potatoes at home with yogurt these days." ”

It's no wonder that she couldn't move in bed before, and it was no wonder that she had a lung infection and malnutrition. Thinking of this, he took out his wand and added a warming charm to the dishes on the table, then stood up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen with you to take a look." ”

Soon the three of them came to the kitchen on the first floor (Helen followed on the way). Ryan saw a few large pockets of potatoes piled up in the corner of the kitchen and asked, "Aren't there any other vegetables?"

"But it's winter, and there really aren't any vegetables. The little vegetables that my father had stored had already been eaten. Alice was puzzled and said that she had the impression that there were no vegetables to eat in winter. Ryan turned his head to look out the window, and through the uncurtained window, Ryan saw that it was white outside. There was a lot of snow on the trees and on the ground.

Only then did he remember that Alice's father was an alchemist, not a druid. It is also normal not to cultivate winter vegetables, after all, this is the era of Louis XV, and it is already common knowledge that you can't eat fresh vegetables in winter. It's normal for people living in this era to not think of this.

"It's not enough to eat potatoes alone, I'll go find you some food. After saying that, Ryan opened the space door and went to the world of Plants vs. Zombies.
