Chapter 124: The Stammering Doctor
April 13, 528 at 9:00 a.m
In a room without sunlight, the only things that can be used to judge the time are the clock hanging on the wall and the regular schedule of the red glow.
After Hongying got up, looking at the unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar breath around her, Hongying sighed boredly.
Although the king asks Red Ray to research food that can replenish her magical powers, Red Ray has no direction at all. Hongying sighed and opened the bathroom door next to the single bed. She filled the tub with hot water, took off her clothes, wrapped herself in a towel and lay down in the tub.
"Didn't you say someone would come and help me? It's been three days, what about people? ”
The red glow leaned against the bathtub, her eyes staring at the sky-blue tiles on the ceiling.
"Click......" There was a sound at the door.
Hongying stood up from the bathtub alertly, opened the bathroom door and poked her head out to look out.
"Who?"
A young man who looked to be in his twenties was pushed in by King Billy.
Hongying took a coat and draped it over her body and looked at King Billy: "Your Royal Highness? ”
King Billy looked at the towel on Hongying's body and kept dripping water and said, "Are you bathing?" He glanced at the young man and said, "It seems that you two are very inconvenient here." ”
King Billy raised his hands and made the room larger, quickly dividing two more rooms.
Hongying blinked her eyes and said, "What do you mean?" He, is he going to live with me? ”
The young man looked sven with glasses, and there was a blush on his face. He looked at Hongying a little shyly.
King Billy said, "Hongying, let me introduce to you, this is a student of Dr. Raka, a student of Dr. Raka, who specializes in magic tools in the Peony Kingdom, Dr. Zhang. He's also a great doctor. During this time, Dr. Zhang will conduct research with you. ”
Hongying shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she was very unhappy, but there was no way, it was the king's order.
King Billy left the room, closed the door, and locked the iron door outside.
Hongying looked at the man and said embarrassedly, "My name is Hongying, what's your name?" Will I call you Dr. Zhang? ”
Dr. Zhang nodded.
Hongying looked around uncomfortably, then turned around and opened the two extra rooms in the room, one was a small bedroom, and the other was an empty white room.
Hongying looked at the empty room and said, "Why is it an empty room?" ”
Dr. Zhang stood behind Hongying and said softly, "Here...... Should...... Be...... It's mine. Do...... Experimental...... Room. ”
"You are from the Peony Kingdom, why did you cooperate with King Billy?" Hongying felt a little strange and asked.
Dr. Zhang did not answer, but asked Hongying, "Your Highness...... Will do...... Cuisine? ”
Hong Ying frowned and looked at Dr. Zhang with some strange eyes: "Yes." What's wrong? Hongying didn't understand why Dr. Zhang was talking like that.
"Can you ...... Do a little ...... Give me? I...... Hungry. Dr. Chang walked to the middle of the empty white room with his head down, and looked around.
"Oh." Hongying felt that Dr. Zhang's tone was very annoying, but since they would be together in the future, it was better not to cause any trouble.
Hongying went back to the bathroom to change her clothes first, and then went to the kitchen to get busy.
Twenty minutes later, Hongying made breakfast.
Hongying knocked on the door of Dr. Zhang's room: "Dr. Zhang, breakfast is ready, do you want to come out to eat or will I bring it in?" ”
There was no reply in the room, so Hongying had to stand outside with breakfast for a while, and when Hongying knocked on the door, Dr. Zhang opened the door and reached out to take the breakfast from Hongying's hand.
When Hongying was surprised by Dr. Zhang's strange behavior, Dr. Zhang whispered, "Thank you." Then he closed the door.
Hongying shrugged her shoulders and went back to the kitchen, peeled off a hard-boiled egg from the pot and ate it in several bites. This hard-boiled egg is Hongying's breakfast.
Hongying's way of passing the time is to walk barefoot around the room, walking on the walls and ceilings. Hongying stood on the ceiling, and Dr. Zhang never came out of the empty room, which made Hongying a little curious, what was it doing inside?
Although Red Glow's magical perception cannot detect the space outside the room, it can still detect the interior of the room.
Through the door, Hongying watched Dr. Zhang sit in his chair, surrounded by a lot of strange instruments.
Hongying wondered, where did these instruments come from, which she hadn't seen just now?
Hongying used her magic power to sense a lot of depth, and looked at Dr. Zhang's body, but there was no trace of magic on his body. Hongying couldn't help but wonder if the current peony people had lost their magic.
Hongying couldn't help but be curious, she wanted to know what Dr. Zhang was doing there, and she also needed to talk to others.
Hongying wants to sneak into the lab, just as Dr. Zhang has his back to her. She smiled and shook her shoulders, and carefully twisted the door open.
Hong Ying walked sideways into the room, and Dr. Zhang, who was concentrating on his research, did not notice Hong Ying at all.
She closed the door and crept behind Dr. Zhang.
Hongying reached out and tapped Dr. Zhang's back, and Dr. Zhang screamed "Wow-" that scared Hongying.
Hongying took two steps back and laughed: "Hahaha......"
Dr. Zhang was so angry that he threw down his things and stood up sharply, his chair falling to the side. He turned around and glared at Hongying: "You! You! ”
Seeing that Dr. Zhang seemed to be angry, Hongying felt a little sorry: "I didn't expect you to have such a big reaction, I'm sorry." ”
Dr. Zhang lifted the chair up, then sat back down in the chair and picked up the gear that had been thrown on the table.
Hongying leaned aside curiously and asked, "Are you repairing your watch?" ”
Dr. Zhang's hands were trembling: "No. ”
"Why are your hands shaking so much?"
Dr. Zhang suddenly lifted his upper body, threw down what he was doing, and trotted all the way to the corner of the room.
"Don't!" Dr. Zhang yelled at Hongying.
Hongying looked at Dr. Zhang incredulously: "What's wrong with you?" How strange are you? ”
"Over...... Come here! ”
Dr. Zhang's long bangs and glasses on his forehead blocked his eyes, and Hongying couldn't see his expression clearly.
Hongying walked over: "What are you doing?" ”
Dr. Zhang's face instantly turned red, and as he watched Hongying walk towards him, his breathing became rapid, and he crouched down against the wall with his chest clutched, like a withered leaf.
Hongying looked down at Dr. Zhang: "You speak!" What are you doing? Am I that scary? Yes? ”
Dr. Zhang raised his red face: "Let's go...... Go away! ”
"I don't! You made it clear to me! Why are you so afraid of me? Hongying squatted in front of Dr. Zhang very domineeringly.
Dr. Zhang trembled and curled up, "I...... I'm afraid! ”
"What are you afraid of? I'm not a beast, and I won't eat you! Hongying glared angrily at Dr. Zhang.
"Magic...... Too strong. ”
Hongying sighed: "Can't you just say a complete sentence?" Sounds so tiring. Is my magic too strong to scare you? ”
Dr. Zhang nodded.
Hongying pouted: "Is it because you have no magic at all?" ”
Hongying stood up and took two steps back: "That's okay, right?" You are calm and calm, can you tell me what you were just doing? ”
"Watch...... It's broken, I, I'm ......"
Hongying sighed: "Are you stammering?" ”
Dr. Zhang blushed and stared at Hongying: "No, it's not! ”
Hong Ying puffed out her mouth, looking at the clenched fists beside Dr. Zhang, Hong Ying guessed that she should have said it, and he should not be willing to admit that he was a stammer. She looked at the empty plate on the table and tried to change the subject: "Breakfast and your appetite?" ”
"Hmm."
Hongying picked up the plate, then looked at Dr. Zhang: "You don't have to be so nervous, I will stay away from you in the future." If you need something, you can write it on the small blackboard outside, and if you need me to help you with something, you can also tell me directly, or alternatively, leave me a message. Anyway, you can come as comfortable as you want. ”
Hongying nodded at Dr. Zhang: "Then I'll go out first." You concentrate on your business, I won't bother you. ”
After Hongying left the room, she washed the dishes and put them in the cupboard. Then continue to sit in bed bored.
She looked at the empty ceiling, shook her head, and looked in the direction of the clock, which was two minutes before ten o'clock.
One minute and thirty seconds.
One minute.
Thirty seconds.
Hong Ying watched the second hand rotate one frame at a time, and in the last ten seconds, Hong Ying stood up.
She stood in front of the little blackboard, anxiously counting, three, two, one.
Hongying opened the small blackboard and looked at the box behind her that was full of things that Hongying wanted.
Red Ying kept taking out a stone the size of her palm from the chest, then took the stone in her hand, roasted it with her own flame, and stuck it to the ceiling.
Hongying looked up at her masterpiece and nodded with great satisfaction.
She stood on the wall, and the wall became the ground, using the ceiling as a wall.
Hongying happily jumped on the spot, and finally in such a claustrophobic environment, there was one more entertainment for rock climbing.
Hongying felt as if she hadn't been systematically exercising, and she happily moved around the ceiling.
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Dr. Zhang came out of the room.
Hongying jumped off the ceiling, which startled Dr. Zhang again. Although Hongying knew that it was not good to laugh at Dr. Zhang like this, she still couldn't help laughing.
Although Dr. Zhang was angry, he still looked at Hongying speechlessly.
Hongying puffed out her mouth: "Scared you again?" Hongying looked at Dr. Zhang a little mischievously.
Dr. Zhang said, "This ...... Here you go. ”
"What?"
"Table."
Hongying reached over and gently touched Dr. Zhang's palm with her fingers and picked up the watch.
"This watch looks a little different."
Dr. Zhang handed a piece of paper to Hongying.
The paper reads: "This watch can detect the approximate value of mana." ”
Hongying glanced at Dr. Zhang, then put the watch on her hand. She looked at Dr. Zhang curiously: "How do you get it?" ”
Dr. Zhang turned on the switch on his watch, and then looked at Hongying: "Okay. ”
Hongying raised her wrist, her hands were slightly forced, and the data on the table began to rise, and after a while, it exploded. She hurriedly covered the exploding watch with her other hand. He looked at Dr. Zhang with some embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean to. ”
Dr. Zhang looked at the remnants of his watch that had turned to ashes in surprise, then looked at Hongying with a light in his eyes, and stammered, "You, you, you're amazing...... Terrible. This data is my ...... Our kingdom is the most ...... Awesome ...... The Magic ...... Mage's ...... Mana, power cap. ”
Hongying listened to Dr. Zhang with difficulty, then rolled her eyes: "Do you want to know how powerful my magic is?" ”
Dr. Zhang nodded excitedly.
Hongying grabbed Dr. Zhang's wrist: "Let me take you to feel it?" ”
Dr. Zhang was grabbed by Hongying's wrist, and suddenly had a feeling of being about to suffocate, but Dr. Zhang was still full of curiosity about Hongying's powerful magic: "Sense...... Feel? How...... How, feelings? ”
Hongying took a deep breath and looked at Dr. Zhang and hooked the corners of her mouth: "It's coming." ”
Red Ying turned the magic into an elongated shape and wrapped it upwards from Dr. Zhang's wrist. Dr. Zhang felt as if his hand had been swallowed by a monster. He was nervous and unable to make an accurate judgment from the outside world.
The magic spread from his arms to Dr. Zhang's shoulders, neck, and then entire upper body.
Dr. Zhang stood there stiffly, looking at Hongying motionlessly.
Hongying grabbed Dr. Zhang's other hand and comforted Dr. Zhang: "Don't be nervous, take a deep breath, my magic is not so scary." ”
Dr. Zhang exhaled nervously, and then his whole body was enveloped in the magic of the red glow. Little by little, the magic seeped into Dr. Zhang's body, and he felt himself lighter, as if he was floating in the air.
Dr. Zhang did float, and Hongying dragged Dr. Zhang up with her magic.
Suddenly, there was a strange feeling in Dr. Zhang's body, and he looked at Hongying with a red face: "But ...... OK. I...... I, let me go...... Get down. ”
Hongying looked up at Dr. Zhang: "How is it?" It's not scary, is it? With me here, you can rest assured that I won't fall on you. ”
Dr. Zhang waved his limbs in the air: "Let me go...... I'll come down. ”
Hongying slowly put Dr. Zhang down, and Dr. Zhang's legs went limp, and his body fell forward.
Hongying stretched out her hands and hugged Dr. Zhang: "Dr. Zhang, are you okay?" ”
Dr. Zhang looked at the red screen in front of him, his face flushed, and he fainted with a quiet "ah".
Hongying picked up Dr. Zhang and put him on the bed, she gently patted Dr. Zhang's face: "Dr. Zhang? Dr. Zhang? What happened to you? Feed! ”
Hongying puffed out her mouth, looked at Dr. Zhang strangely, and said to herself, "Are you really so strange? I'm always blushing when I'm fine, and now I'm fainting again, why do you have so many problems? ”
Hongying looked at the time and saw that it was already noon, and lunch had not yet been made. Hongying was busy in the kitchen for ten minutes, and a simple lunch was ready.
Hongying watched Dr. Zhang lying there, sleeping soundly. Hongying couldn't help but mutter: "I thought that there was finally a big living person who could accompany me to eat, but I didn't expect it to be a big brother who was afraid of me." ”
Hongying sat down and sat next to Dr. Zhang, Hongying looked at Dr. Zhang's sleeping appearance, and couldn't help but complain again: "You look like you're in your twenties, obviously you're such a big person, why do you feel scared when you see a girl like me?" I won't eat you again, and under the watchful eye of the king, what do you have to fear? ”
Hongying was beside Dr. Zhang's bedside, crackling and saying a lot of things, as if she wanted to say all the things she hadn't said in the past few days.
Dr. Zhang seemed to be woken up by Hongying's verbosity, and he opened his eyes with a chirp, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Hongyingdi's face in front of him. Dr. Zhang swallowed and turned his head to look elsewhere.
Hongying stood up: "Are you okay now?" ”
Dr. Zhang didn't look at Hongying, and nodded to himself.
Hongying asked, "Are you hungry?" I made lunch. Can you eat with me? ”
Hongying stood up and looked at Dr. Zhang. Dr. Zhang was embarrassed to lie down any longer, so he stood up.
Hongying sat in her seat, waiting for Dr. Zhang to sit down in the chair across from her. Hongying said, "Eat." ”
Dr. Zhang carefully cut the steak made by Hongying and put it in his mouth, and after a while, he stammered, "Your Highness...... Breakfast...... and lunch...... All delicious. ”
Hongying smiled and said, "If you like it, it's fine." The king said he wanted us to make food that replenished our magic, do you have an idea? ”
Dr. Zhang nodded, then shook his head after a while. Then he tried to say something with some difficulty, but the words just couldn't come out of his mouth.
Hongying frowned and bit her lower lip, looking at Dr. Zhang a little impatiently, her communication with Dr. Zhang in the future will be a problem! Ah, no matter! Sick of it! I'm not going to ask that kind of question in the future!
Hongying smiled politely: "Forget it, just when I didn't ask, let's eat first." When the time comes, write it down. ”
Dr. Zhang lowered his head in some embarrassment and continued to eat.
Hongying has completely lost the urge to communicate with Dr. Zhang. She finished her meal with a somewhat depressed mood, and watched Dr. Zhang finish her meal with some unhappiness.
She began to mumble again: "Is that your character?" So shy, so shy, don't like to talk to people? ”
Dr. Zhang didn't raise his eyes to look at Hongying, lowered his head and nodded, "Yes." I...... I ......"
Hongying's speed of speech became a little faster because of her uncontrollable anger: "Have you been stimulated by anything before?" Have you ever been bullied? Mengtianxing didn't like to talk much before, but after a while, Mengtianxing became less shy. Maybe you can too. Dr. Zhang, it's okay to stutter a little now, if you talk to me more, you will definitely be fine. ”
After Hongying finished speaking, she nodded to herself: "Well, that's right, you'll be fine, I want to be patient with you." Whew......"
"I ...... I ......"
Hongying didn't wait for Dr. Zhang to start speaking, she herself began to say again: "You don't have to worry, I really won't be angry, I'm just a little anxious." Without further ado, I went to wash the dishes. ”
Hongying put away the plates on the table and walked into the kitchen. Only Dr. Zhang was left in a hurry with his mouth open, and the more anxious he was, the more the words went into his stomach.
