Tesla hates being beaten to a pulp the most. If it’s yes, it’s yes. If it’s no, it’s no. What’s the point of beating around the bush? It’s a waste of time!
The main problem is that she often gets confused and gets tricked while she is still in a daze!
So, isn't it better for everyone to talk and do things honestly?
Einstein sighed helplessly under Tesla's angry glare and said:
"Cocolia didn't just brush us off. She was presenting facts and reasoning. Her reasoning made sense logically and was hard to disprove. We will meet the person involved next. The information we get from the child should be more valuable than our remote investigation."
"Tsk! Anyway, I don't believe that vixen! Even though Protocol Three is cool and they handled this disaster beautifully... Anyway, I will keep an eye on it. If that guy really dares to blaspheme Joyce, I will make her pay!"
Tesla grabbed his hair and saw that he had reached the top floor exit, so he rushed up quickly and entered the passcode without saying a word.
"Whoosh!"
The wind and snow from the top of the snow-capped mountains roared in with biting cold temperatures, causing the originally warm and comfortable passage to instantly begin to condense with frost.
Tesla and Einstein quickly put on the warm down jackets prepared by Cocolia, which slightly resisted the cold.
"A-choo! What the hell! Why is that child staying in a place like this? Cocolia is abusing the child!"
Tesla sniffed, and her nose and cheeks suddenly turned red. She quickly tucked her smooth red ponytails into her clothes, wrapped herself in the hood, and completely hid herself in the coat that she had just laughed at for being tacky.
Einstein rolled his eyes imperceptibly, made some adjustments to keep warm, and then started walking into the vast snow plain formed by the roofs of the base.
They walked forward, braving the heavy snow that obscured their vision.
Finally, just as Cocolia had told them in advance, they saw the little girl at the edge of the snowy rooftop.
She sat in a circular area without snow, wearing a thin, white, lovely long dress, quietly looking at the sleeping snow-capped mountains, like a holy, pure, and blameless lovely flower.
"Nindy..."
Einstein involuntarily called out the names that Cocolia had told them.
The girl then tilted her head and looked at them, her pure and flawless purple eyes seemed particularly empty.
Only then did Einstein and Tesla see each other's true face: delicate face shape, dreamy blond hair, purple eyes, and skin that was as shiny and smooth as if made of jade. It was as exquisite and lovely as a fiction.
Then the snow and wind suddenly stopped.
Einstein and Tesla were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked up and looked around, but in the distance, snow was still falling.
It turned out that it was not that the wind and snow had stopped, but that an invisible force had spread to where they were standing, like a round cover, bypassing the strong wind and the drifting snow as they passed by, and even their clothes and the snow under their feet were swept away without them noticing.
Although the temperature was very low, they suddenly felt much warmer in this environment.
"Such a skillful technique. This is not an uncontrollable experiment at all. It is even more skilled than a new Herrscher. It is almost as if..."
Like Joyce back then.
Einstein's heartbeat paused uncontrollably, and it took him a while to calm down, then he smiled at Nindy.
"Hello, we are..."
"Liesel, Frederica."
Nindy's small lips moved, and she pronounced their first names in a soft and ethereal voice, instead of the surnames that others often used.
Both Einstein and Tesla were stunned.
Tesla asked subconsciously:
"Do you know us?"
Ningdi looked at them with empty eyes, slowly tilted her head, and then pointed to her heart woodenly.
"Here, tell me your names, tell me I know you. It's nice to see you here... but these are not mine, I don't know you. So, who am I?"
Ningdy lowered her head in a daze, her slender eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and there was no ups and downs in her words, but it made people feel more sad and pity.
Einstein slowly grabbed his chest, his legs went weak in disbelief, and he took a step back.
Tesla stepped forward quickly, put his hands on Ningdi's weak shoulders, and said quickly and shockedly:
"Are you saying you have Joyce's memories!?"
"That is my source. I am familiar with him, but I am not him."
"The genes... the genes... and the memories... are wrong. It's impossible. He is a Herrscher, but it seems..."
Tesla's pupils trembled and he tightly grasped Nindy's shoulders. In his mind, he was filled with shock and disbelief, but an unstoppable expectation grew rapidly like a tree.
Ningdi stared at Tesla's chaos in a daze, without any reaction.
Until Einstein came up, pried Tesla's hands apart, and then sat on the eaves high above the snow-capped mountains with Nindy.
"What are you looking at, sitting here alone?"
"I didn't see it. It's just that it's very quiet here, just like when I was still in the incubator. It's comfortable."
"Are you confused then?"
"Well. I've been wondering what I am, but Mommy can't answer me. I know you're smart, so do you know?"
Ningdy raised her head and looked at Einstein, who was much taller than her. His mechanical and hollow purple eyes were like clean, transparent and fragile glass.
Einstein raised his lips and couldn't help but reach out to touch the top of Nindy's head. When he found that there was no resistance, he smiled even more deeply and said softly:
"This is almost the most complicated and simplest question in the world. Many, many people cannot figure it out until the day they die. However, Joyce figured it out, so you can too."
"Really?"
"Of course, I won't lie to you."
Einstein smiled very gently.
Ningdy looked at her smiling face straight, paused, raised her hands, and held Einstein's soft and smooth little hands.
"I like you."
Ningdi said so, her childish words were so light and innocent, coupled with her dull expression, but it made her sound so genuine.
Einstein's smile became even brighter, but a tear slipped from the corner of his eye without him noticing.
'Joyce, is that what you want to say to me? If you were still alive, maybe we would have a child too...'
Einstein knew that this was not the same as Nindy, and that Nindy's origin was a darker and unacceptable human experiment, but Einstein still couldn't help but fantasize about it.
Tesla also sat carelessly on the other side of Nindy at this time, put his hand on Nindy's shoulder, and said crisply:
"Don't listen to the nonsense. What's the point of thinking about such nonsense? The most important thing for a person is to be happy. Do you understand?"
"happy?"
"Yes! Be happy, be cheerful, and face every day with joy. This way you won't have any regrets!"
"Then...how can I be happy?"
"You have to find it yourself. However, if you sit here all day, thinking about this problem, and can't even see anyone, you won't find a way to make yourself happy! Come on, come back to the heated room with me, and I'll teach you how to play games!"
Tesla said this with a smile, but she couldn't hide her red eyes - like Einstein, she was also reminded of long-lost memories and longings.
Afterwards, seeing that Ningdi was just looking at him blankly without any reaction, Tesla simply pulled her up and walked back without saying anything.
Einstein sat there, looked at the snow-capped mountains for a while, smiled and shook his head, stood up, and followed in the footsteps of Tesla and Nindy.
Chapter 47 Walter: Trembling, Lighting a Cigarette
"Teacher Yang..."
"Teacher Yang?"
"Teacher Yang!"
Angel stood beside Walter Yang, holding the homework she had just collected, and puffed up her face to express her dissatisfaction at the fact that her voice was ignored.
Walter turned his eyes away from the unresponsive phone, turned his head, and smiled apologetically at Angie.
"I'm sorry, my family had planned to talk to me these past two days, but there has been no response. I'm a little worried. Thank you, Anqi, for helping me collect the homework. Thank you for your help."
"You're welcome. I'm a representative."
An Qi said this calmly, and at first it didn't sound like anything special, but seeing how she put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest, it was obvious that she was very proud.
Walter shook his head and laughed. He was fond of this lovely little classmate, but at the same time he couldn't help feeling worried.
"This child is also an orphan in Changkong City. If he and Mei and Bronya are killed in the future... Sigh, fate is especially cruel to kind people."
Walter sighed inwardly and took out a box of cookies from the drawer.
"Teacher, my salary is low, far from being as good as you, a B-rank Valkyrie. I can't afford to buy you good things. I can only give you a box of cookies. Thank you for your help these days."
"Thank you, Teacher Yang!"
An Qi held the cookie in her hands and tried hard to suppress her expression, but her eyes were shining uncontrollably.
Apparently, the little girl couldn't resist a tasty snack.
Walter laughed again and looked at Anqi's back with gentle eyes as she walked away with excited steps.
Then, in the office with only one person left, Walter picked up the phone again and frowned.
'Tesla and Ein said they were going to check the situation, so why is there no news? It's been several days, could Cocolia really dare... No, don't think too much, Ein is very cautious, she must have taken defensive measures, and she will ask me for help at the very least. Well, the situation must be more complicated than I thought, wait a little longer, if there is no news today, I'll contact them tomorrow.'
Walter hesitated for a while, but finally decided to trust the two close friends who were both his elders and companions.
After all, Tesla was alone, so he might have to worry about his occasional carelessness. But if the reliable Einstein was also traveling with him, then there would be no need to worry, right?
Then, today my phone didn't ring.
Walter sat in his room until dawn and finally called Tesla's communication line.
"Hey! Who is that? I'm busy!"
"Tesla, who else can use this channel? Of course it's..."
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, jump and hack him! Right there! I'll come and finish him off! Combo, combo... Woohoo! We win! Little Cindy, you're awesome, a genius, hahahaha!"
"Du~~"
Walter listened to Tesla's passionate noise, then watched his phone go off with a burst of laughter.
He tilted his head, looking confused.
"???"
After a moment's silence, Walter gave up thinking whether Tesla had hung up the phone on purpose or had accidentally ended the call, and instead contacted Einstein.
"Hello, is this Yang? What's going on?"
"Of course I am..."
"Hey, wait a minute. The apple pie is almost ready. I'll take it out for Little Nindy first. I'll contact you later if you need anything."
"Du~~"
Walter stared blankly at the screen which went out again. He didn't know why, but even though there was no wind in the room, he felt as if a cold wind had blown into his heart. It was so cold!
So who is Little Cindy?
Am I no longer your most beloved child...ah, the most trusted and caring family member! ?
……
After a long time, Walter, holding the cigarette left by Siegfried and which had been stored for many years, listened calmly to Einstein and Tesla telling the story of Nindy.
"It can be concluded that Nindy is a child born after a series of adjustments and modifications to Joyce's genes. It's hard to say whether this is a clone or a descendant. But in any case, Nindy is a good child, and she is the only one who is absolutely innocent."
"Yeah, yeah, she's super cute!"
"Joyce was the original Ruler of Reason after all, and some of his special characteristics may have penetrated into his genes. This is probably why Nindy still has a small amount of Joyce's memories. But Nindy is not Joyce. If you meet in the future, I hope you can remember this and don't let this child feel troubled."
"She learned to play games very quickly. She and I are a perfect match. I like her so much, hahahaha!"
"Now this child is like a blank sheet of paper, but some of Joyce's memories and thoughts are flowing into her, causing her to be confused about the world and herself. We have to guide and take good care of her."
"By the way, she even shares her apple pie with me! Ah, she raises her hands high and puts the pie into my mouth with such seriousness, so cute! Anyway, she is a thousand times cuter and more adorable than you when you were a kid. No, at least ten thousand times!"
Einstein described some basic information about Nindy.
Tesla gleefully stabbed Walter Young in the back.
After a while, Walter put out the stale cigarette in his palm, sighed, and said:
"So, you two have been guarding this child like this, and you even forgot to contact me?"
