Chapter 446: Awakening (3)
Looking at the house in front of her, Leah's eyes couldn't hide her surprise.
The main body of the house is a three-storey apartment-style house, and the exquisite and simple design style makes it full of petty bourgeois atmosphere. Next to the house is a garage with two concrete walls extending from the garage and the side of the house and enclosing a yard. At the gate of the yard there is a concrete road that extends to the garage and the main entrance of the house, while the rest of the place is paved with green lawns.
These are real green grasses that don't have any mutant genes, and their only function is to decorate the venue. At the moment, a small rotary sprinkler is spraying water in all directions of the lawn from time to time to ensure that the green grass has enough water to grow.
Perhaps, in the old days, such a house was not unusual. But in those days, most people lived in rudimentary underground bases, or even shantytowns fenced with planks and barbed wire. A house like this is extravagant. Leah couldn't believe that Zero owned such a house.
She looked at Zero in surprise, and the latter nodded at her, "This is our house, do you like it?"
"It's like a fairyland, why shouldn't I like it?" sighed Leah.
"Let's go, let's go in and see. β
Zero started the engine, drove the car into the garage, and took Leah by the hand and walked into the apartment. The door to the apartment had long since been opened, and Lily and Betty, two beautiful maids, stood on one side. When they saw Leah, they both said in unison, "Welcome, Miss Leah." β
Leah didn't react for a moment, although passers-by had already told her that there were two maids to take care of his daily life. But seeing it with your own eyes now is another matter. Leah hurriedly said, "Don't call me Miss, call me"
Betty smiled and said, "You are the master's wife, of course you can't be called Miss." It's all Lily's assertions, in fact, I said a long time ago that I should call my wife. β
When she said this, Leah was even more overwhelmed. Zuihou still said: "Okay, Leah and I are both from the wilderness, and we are not used to being called Mrs. Master." Like I said before, you can call her by her name. β
Leah was relieved to know that Zero had already arranged everything, and that it was just two maids who were teasing her just now. The fact is also true, unless there are outsiders around, Zero doesn't like Lily and Betty calling themselves to the left and right. They are more like friends who live in the same house, but they have a different division of work.
Because of this, Lily and Betty are glad that they can serve a master like Zero. Here, they feel freedom and equality. Elsewhere, even Asgartri, which claims to be a liberal democracy, is rare.
Zero then takes Leah around the house to familiarize her with the location and function of each room. In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and when Lily and Betty were having lunch, Beon-Lise came. The arrival of the head of the Black Rose family surprised Zero, while Leah was at a loss. Zero didn't mention it to Leah about Beonliz, not because he didn't intend to show Leah about his relationship with Beonlith. It's just that Leah just woke up, and Zero doesn't want her to receive too much information at once.
While she was figuring out Beonrisse's intentions, the latter had already walked into the living room. Today, Beonliz wore a casual dress, a loose woolen jacket with a black lining, a pair of linen-colored casual pants underneath, and a pair of rhinestone-encrusted high heels, making Beonliz look beautiful and generous.
"You're Leah, I've heard Zero talk about you a lot. I heard that you have finally recovered recently, so I came to visit. You're so pretty, no wonder Zero likes you. Beonlise said as she sat down next to Leah as she looked familiar.
Leah said "Xiexie cares", then looked at Zero and said, "Who is this sister?"
Zero replied, but Beonise hurriedly said: "I am Zero's partner, the kind in business." Zero is very capable, he can help my sister and make a lot of money. β
As she spoke, Beonliz winked at Zero, like a naughty child.
Zero didn't know what she thought, so she simply chose to be silent. Beonlis, on the other hand, is very talkative, from beauty to maintenance, she knows almost everything about the topics that women are interested in, and she quickly talks and laughs with Leah.
Zuihou, BeonΓ©rith stayed and had lunch with the two of them, and then quit and left on the grounds of work. When she left, she left behind a bunch of nutritional products, mostly some auxiliary drugs developed by modern gene jishu, saying that they were for Leah's body.
In the afternoon, Leah took a nap in her room. I slept soundly this night, and there was no more of my previous dream. When she woke up, she heard the sound of banging in the courtyard downstairs. She pulled back the curtain, only to see Zero taking off her coat and pounding something naked. Leah was curious to the yard and saw that Zero was driving some metal components into the lawn.
He basically didn't use tools, and Zero's hands served as hammers and other equipment, which may be another convenience for those who are able. But Leah was more curious about what he was doing, so she asked, "What is this?"
Pocket tightened a screw with his hand and said, "It's a swing, I want to make you one." In the future, you can sit here and read a book, which is also a good way to pass the time. β
"Swing, the kind of thing in the old days that you could sit on and swing around?" Leah gestured, her expression excited.
"yes, how's that, do you like it?"
"Of course I do. As long as you do it, I like anything. Leah said with joy.
Zero pointed to the garage: "Then, go find me a wrench." β
"Yes!" Leah saluted like a creep, and ran into the warehouse. After a while, he ran back again, carrying a large wrench in his hand. So Zero asked Leah to give her a hand, and the two of them were so busy. It was busy until sunset, and a swing was successfully built.
"Try it. Zero pointed to the swing.
Leah sat down honestly and unceremoniously, and Zero gently nudged her from behind. With the swing of the iron cable, the swing took Leah up again and again. Leah was happy, and the feeling of swinging into the sky was like the whole person was about to fly. She laughed happily, leaving a series of silver bells in the courtyard.
Tired of playing, Leah sits on the swing, and she makes Zero sit down too. When Zero sat down, Leah changed to a comfortable position and leaned on Zero's body, and she said softly: "Zero, that sister at noon, she is also your woman, right?"
Zero's body suddenly stiffened, he didn't expect Leah to say that. But since Leah seems to be aware, he is not ready to hide it from her: "Beth is something I met after I came to this city, we have experienced something together, and we have a good feeling for each other, so Leah, I"
Leah burst out laughing, she looked up at Zero, shook her head and said, "I know, Zero." You don't need to say, grandpa said that there are many women for men who have the ability. Zero is so capable, and I'm already surprised that there is only one woman, my sister. So you don't have to say anything, I just need to know that a part of Zero's heart is mine, and that's enough. β
"Xiexie you. Zero saw that Leah did not object to him being with Beonlis, and he was naturally happy in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and hug this delicate girl. And he said, "How do you know that a woman's intuition is really that accurate?"
"Perhaps. Leah showed a thoughtful expression: "However, at that time, I seemed to hear my sister's voice. She's such a nice person, because I heard her say that I've just woken up and can't be overstimulated, so it's better to hide the matter between her and you for the time being. β
"You hear her?" said Zero, surprised.
Leah stuck out her tongue and said, "It seems that after waking up this time, I seem to be able to vaguely hear the voices of some people." Like Dr. Victor, he misses his wife all the time. Like Lily and Betty, they seem to like you too, otherwise you would have let them be your women. We can have many children for you, so we must be very happy. β
The previous words were okay, but Leah's last few words made Zero a little overwhelmed. However, Leah's performance seems to be a trace of gaining some abilities.
Listen to your heart? It should be the ability to perceive the domain, and it seems that we have to talk to Victor. Zero Heart.
That night, after Leah fell asleep, Zero set up a car and went to the lab alone. The various equipment in the laboratory has been packed and is being shipped to the underground base of Zero. The rebirth of Jihua has been completed, and Zero intends to let Victor move over as well, and a laboratory belonging to Victor himself in the underground base has been built, and Victor can study genetic potions and even ability potions in it.
Therefore, there is no longer a need for this temporary laboratory rented from Asgard. At this moment, the laboratory was dim, only the faint fluorescence was still flickering at the end, but it was Victor sitting in front of the computer, looking intently at some data. He was so engrossed in it that he didn't even know that zero was coming. Zero could only cough dryly before it caught the doctor's attention.
Victor turned around, saw that it was zero, and hurriedly beckoned: "You came just in time, I have something I want you to see." β
"I have something to talk to you about. "I suspect that Leah has an ability, as if it is the ability to perceive the domain. β
Victor was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "This is what I want you to see, some genetic data about Leah." β
Zero hurriedly leaned over, and Victor pointed to some data on the computer screen and said, "I also found out when I was just sorting out Leah's files, and when she woke up, the instrument recorded something." β
Clicking on some numbers that Zero couldn't understand, Victor said in a deep voice: "It's a genetic shock, and it's also the key to unlocking ability!"
Zero gently repeated the words "genetic shock" and said, "How could this happen." Leah didn't have any abilities before, and she shouldn't have been able to produce abilities when she was reborn with the genes extracted from her blood. β
"It's hard to talk about that. Victor spread his hands and said, "After all, Leah had already been infected with something else at that time, and those virus-like cells were very aggressive. Maybe when we extracted the genes, Leah's original genes had been mixed with new substances, so they would have the ability to produce now. β
Discord!
Zero certainly won't forget that it was because of the contamination of the Discord's blood that Leah had to leave the base. He worried, "Those things."
"Don't worry, even if that substance is mixed in, judging from Leah's genetic structure now, they are very stable and will not have any effect on Leah. Oh, it won't be, they give Leah powers. Victor added, "What's next? β
Zero thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I'll tell her, and if she wants, I'd like to send her to some classes on ability control and use." β
"You want to develop Leah's abilities, what, are you going to send her to battle?" asked Victor with a smile.
Zero shook her head and said, "No, I just want her to have the ability to protect herself." If you have the ability and don't guide it, the ultimate ability will only bring misfortune. β
"By the way, delete this information, I don't want anyone to know about Leah. Also, in the future, in Leah's side, please don't think about anything about the rebirth of Jihua. If I'm not mistaken, Leah's ability should be the fuzzy perception of the perceptual domain. Zero said solemnly.
"I understand. Victor laughed, "Actually, I was about to ask you to delete these materials after reading them." Without them, Leah would have been truly reborn. β
"Xiexie, Victor!" Zero nodded.
"Don't say that, we're friends, aren't we?" Victor hahadaxiao, patting Zero on the shoulder hard.
By the time Zero left the lab, all information about Leah had been completely erased, and the computer's mainframe had turned into a pile of char in front of Zero and Victor. They deleted it thoroughly, ensuring that not a single trace of information remained. After all this, Zero has learned not to leave anything that could threaten him or those around him.
When she got home, Leah was still asleep. Her expression was so calm that Zero gently kissed her on the face before taking off her coat and getting out on the bed. The quilt is warm and has a faint fragrance. As if sensing Zero's presence, Leah didn't wake up, but her hands naturally hugged Zero, just like the countless nights before. Zero put his arm around her with his backhand and listened to her breathing and drifted off to sleep.
The first night the two went home, and they spent it so peacefully.
The next morning.
"Going to school?"
Leah's eyes widened and she looked at Zero.
Zero nodded and said, "That's right, go to school." I want you to learn to control your abilities, of course, if you don't want to. β
"No, I'll go. Leah shook her head and smiled, "But if I can, I still want to learn a few more courses, not just one ability." β
"Oh, what else do you want to learn, I'll report it to you. Zero accidents.
"Economics, history, and politics are compulsory courses, and I haven't thought about the rest yet. Leah counted her fingers.
Zero was surprised: "Why are you learning so many things?"
Leah bit her lip and said seriously, "I feel that I can only help you in the future if I try to learn as many things as possible." I don't want to be your oil bottle!"
