“…… Therefore, at the turn of winter and spring, women who are troubled by height may wish to try cloak clothing, which can not only cover up the problem of the figure, but also highlight the mysterious temperament of women, whether it is cute or mysterious, it is a good choice......"

-- Fashion magazine "Beauty" article, "The new trend of fashion, the cloak becomes the favorite of short girls? appears on the torn pages of Helice's room, in which "concealing the problems of the figure" and "highlighting the mysterious temperament of women" are annotated with red pen.

"Green light, I'm in, Helice."

Ling Yu calculated the time and found that it should be daytime in Icarus at the moment, so Han Fei should be sleeping, so he didn't rush to check the email, but came to the basement first.

Ling Yu pressed the button, and the newly added electronic door after the modification retracted into the wall to the left, and what entered the young man's pupils was still the signature flowing welding sparks.

"Nitroglycerin in this environment, it seems that I still ignore the danger of your guy." Ling Yu looked at the sparks splashed on the flame-retardant material on the floor and walked to the workbench.

When preparing dangerous goods, I pay attention to the working environment.

Writing was displayed on the screen, and Helis looked up, raised her hand to push the mask away, and stopped what she was doing.

"No kind of working environment is good," Ling Yu shook his head helplessly, and it took some effort to veto Helis - especially when a little girl looked at him with a "I want that doll" expression, the young man always felt as if it was inhumane for him to do so.

"I said, why are you fiddling with these dangerous things?" Ling Yu silently recited dozens of times in his heart, "There are millions of people in this city" before he cleansed the guilt in his heart, "If you say that it is just a civilian one, this is obviously an attack drone." ”

Prepare for the next battle.

The girl blinked, a knowingly inquiring expression.

"No way!" Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, shook his hand fiercely, and then crossed his hands in front of his chest and made a "veto" gesture, "I didn't say that I was going to take you to the next operation, you will stay here honestly for me." ”

Why?

The girl asked expressionlessly.

"I didn't rescue you so that you could act as a thug for me," Ling Yu rubbed his hair. Retorted in a slightly complaining tone. "Children should do what children do!"

Do you question my combat prowess? Ling Yu?

Helis put down the welding torch in her hand and raised her leg in a kicking position.

"This has nothing to do with combat effectiveness," Ling Yu felt for the first time that communication was such a difficult thing, and if the scene really reached a situation that the current team couldn't handle. That's a little girl, and she's just sending her to death. "You're going to make me shameless to face the people who have gone to great lengths to drag you off the battlefield."

……

Helis's eyes flickered. It seemed to think of something, but immediately raised his head.

I have to warn you, Ling Yu. I am 23 years old since I was born in 2155 under the laws of the League, and you are not obligated to exercise guardianship over me, nor do you have the right to do so.

"I can't tell you, but if it doesn't work, it won't work."

Ling Yu was already going crazy, why did the women he met more able to say than the other?

Alas......

Helis breathed a sigh of relief, then reached out and sent a communication eyepiece to Ling Yu.

“…… Is there anything secret to tell? Ling Yu took the eyepiece and put it on his ear.

Where did you go yesterday?

The first question made Ling Yu feel a little bad.

"It's none of your business." Ling Yu took a step back and clasped his hands in front of his chest, "Private affairs." ”

Space is dangerous.

"This ......" Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, then rushed forward, pulled Helis aside, and then subconsciously turned his head to look at the locked door, "Why are you ......?"

Rest assured, it's safe here, and there are no people in this world who can eavesdrop while I'm on full energy.

Helis still looked up at Ling Yu with a blank expression, then closed her eyes and walked to the workbench.

"How do you know? How much do you know? Ling Yu bit his lower lip and asked in a low voice.

Not much, but I can know a qiē if I want to.

Helis picked up the welding torch and looked at the half-finished drone on the table, and was silent for a moment.

The isotope indicators on your body are abnormal, Sister Jeunsy has a wound on her left shoulder, and I also received abnormal gravitational wave signals before, the only reasonable explanation is that you went to space.

"Well, even if you're all right, what are you going to do? I don't think that's something to blackmail me. Ling Yu pursed his lips and looked at Helis's small back, "Actually, I don't have to keep it a secret. ”

But Sister Jess will keep it secret at any cost.

Helis picked up the welding mask and buckled it to her head, restarting the welding torch.

Ling Yu, I'm just depicting a possibility for you, a possibility that may mess up your current situation.

"You ......" Ling Yu gritted his teeth, indeed, although this matter was not necessarily fatal, it was definitely tricky.

I didn't mean to blackmail you, otherwise I wouldn't have told you about it first.

Soon, though, Helis turned the tide again.

I don't want to see you arguing with Sister Jeunse, and I don't want to see you in deep trouble, but, please don't threaten my life in the name of love, I have the right to choose my own path since the day I was born, I have no parents, and you have no right to dictate to me legally.

So your veto is invalid, boss, I'll go with you anyway.

"You ......"

Ling Yu spat out a word again, only, this time, it was more of a surprise than helplessness and anger.

"Oh—that's what I said."

After a short silence, Ling Yu finally put an end to the topic with a wry smile. "Well, indeed, I apologize if my protection of you seems a little too much to you."

Helis is right, although she is still a child, her mind can no longer be measured by a 12-year-old girl, not to mention that even if she is really a 12-year-old girl, she cannot be educated in a simple and crude way.

"Well, if you must insist on going," Ling Yu, who realized this, shook his head helplessly. It seems that he really isn't the material to be a father. "But promise me, don't be reckless, and once you encounter a situation that you can't deal with, you must put safety first."

Do I look such a big-chested person?

Herris put down the welding torch. snapped his fingers. Several robotic arms are lowered from the ceiling. Grab the drone on the workbench and hang it in mid-air.

Completely...... Unlike Ah ......, Ling Yu glanced at Helis's unheaving chest. wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead because of embarrassment, "Next time, don't use idioms you don't understand, it's embarrassing." ”

Do you care about the size of a girl's boobs?

Helis turned his head and suddenly looked at Ling Yu with an extremely serious gaze.

"No, no, no! You're completely misunderstood, okay?! Ling Yu was frightened by this sincere and confused gaze and jumped back a step, "I'm just saying...... Do you really understand the meaning of that word? ”

Again, I'm 23 years old! One year older than Sister Jeunse!!

Herris placed the torch on the table—as if the movements were not as gentle as before, and the text rarely used exclamation points.

According to the judicial interpretation of the seventeenth supplementary regulation of Article 3, Chapter 47, Chapter 3 of the Fifth Revised Edition of the League Implementation Measures for the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Persons with Disabilities in 2173, the long-term loss of cognitive ability (including the cognitive ability to save oneself) due to brain death (whether temporary or long-term) has been completely lost, and the disabled (vegetative person) who have no active activities still enjoy the civil rights granted by the Constitution! In other words, even though I slept for so long, I was still an adult at the age of eighteen! If you don't believe it, go to the welfare home and find a young brain-dead patient as a child! See if their families will call the police and arrest you!!!!!!

This time, not only is there a long list of exclamation points, but the exclamation points have been enlarged and red-edged.

"Alright, okay, I know, you're an adult, and a year older than Jesse, dear Helis. Miss Ivanova. Ling Yu subconsciously raised his hand to block it in front of him, as if this could block Helis's angry gaze.

So don't underestimate me! There is also something called dwarfism in this world, and there is also a genetic disease called congenital growth deficiency! Be careful that I hang you on social networking sites to discriminate against people with disabilities! Be careful that you walk down the street and are splashed with paint!!

Starting a fire is no different from a real 23-year-old woman, Ling Yu nodded busily to show that he knew the severity of the problem and his own mistakes, and pressed down with both hands to signal the other party to calm down.

Forget it, I don't care about you.

With a shake of his head with his hands on his hips and two gestures with his fingers on the camera on the wall, the robotic arm brought the new drone shell to the miniature wind tunnel and began the wind tunnel simulation.

Ling Yu.

Just as Ling Yu took off his eyepieces and wondered if there was nothing to do with him here, suddenly, a crisp prompt sound came from the main monitor in front of him, along with his name.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

I don't think I have told you yet......

Thank you.

"Ah...... Actually, it doesn't matter. Ling Yu shook his hand with a smile, indicating that he didn't care, and then crossed his waist with one hand, spread out his left hand, and spoke in a half-joking tone, "If you say it with your mouth, it's even better." ”

Is that so?

Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, looking at Helis who suddenly turned around, and then, he could clearly see that the girl's lips moved.

"Thank you."

Although the voice was small, it was indeed coming from Helis's mouth, with a not deep, but clearly visible emotional voice.

"Ah...... In fact...... Don't ......" Ling Yu, who was a little overwhelmed by the sudden opening, subconsciously scratched his head, but he didn't know whether it was a shy or embarrassed expression for only a second, and the young man regained his normal expression, he stepped forward and half-squatted down, and stretched out his hand to put it on Helis's shoulder.

"Actually, I don't want you to continue fighting, but as you said, if this is your heart's true desire, even if it's temporary, you have the right to pursue it, after all, if I just move you from one steel coffin to another, what I did would be meaningless."

Helis didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

"So, you don't need to say thanks, if you want to thank your companions for this kind of thing, then it's endless." Ling Yu closed his eyes, thought of Jiesi's thanks in the space station warehouse, shook his head silently, and then stood up, "However, if it's a companion, don't be too polite, if you need help, just say okay, me or Jiesi." ”

"It's a deal."

Helis's lips twitched again, and the second time he spoke, Ling Yu was once again speechless in surprise, and just when Ling Yu was a little overwhelmed, Helis stretched out his hand and made a high-five preparation.

"Hah...... Deal. Ling Yu stretched out his hand and hit Helis's small palm, the young man stood up, took a breath, and then rubbed Helis's head, "No problem, I have always kept my promises." ”

"If nothing else, I'll go first." Ling Yu looked at Helis who nodded lightly and gave a thumbs up, "If you have any questions, call me at any time." ”

Helis nodded again, then turned around and lay down in front of the workbench again, Ling Yu didn't mean to continue to bother, turned around and walked out of the door.

However, when the door was completely closed, the white-haired girl suddenly stopped working, stretched out her left hand, and lightly drew a few strokes on the workbench.

Those are two characters written in Chinese characters.

Companion. (To be continued......)

PS: Helis is cute~~~
