Abstinence Admiral Don't Bite, the Softer Mermaid Top Thug

Chapter 52 Take Good Care of My Baby

The cool moonlight shone in from outside the porch, forming a sharp contrast with the simple warm light embedded in the circular dome.

Just like Lu Lianbai's face which was half-lit and half-dark at this moment, he stood there motionless for a long time, as if he finally remembered something. He raised his wrist, paused for a few seconds, and then moved his long fingers to turn on the light brain.

Holographic surveillance showed that half an hour ago, a masked, silver-haired old man entered here. His action had a clear purpose. He placed the shell bed in the most conspicuous position in the whole house, and then disappeared outside the porch again.

Lu Lianbai repeatedly pulled the progress bar to check the figure that suddenly disappeared completely from the holographic screen. Finally, from the slightly flashing light in the lower right corner, he determined that it was an ultra-high frequency jumper.

Just as I was pondering the identity of this silver-haired old man, suddenly, the little fish eggs on the shell bed seemed to sense that they were being ignored by him. They stuck to the shell wall and rolled around, with the tips of their tails, which had not yet fully grown, drooping down in autism.

Lu Lianbai stared at the small fish eggs that rolled along the shell wall, then stood still for a few seconds. He walked over and was about to lift the shell bed when his fingers touched a piece of paper next to the bed.

Press your fingertips against the fold of the paper and unfold it.

【Take good care of my baby and don't come looking for me. 】

Lu Lianbai read the contents of the note over and over again, then with an expressionless face, he used the base's authority to enter the medical department's intranet, found Jing Weiman's previous employment application, and compared the application on the light screen with the note one by one. He soon confirmed that this was Jing Weiman's handwriting.

After confirming this fact, Lu Lianbai tightened the note in his hand without saying a word.

The dark corners of his eyes were slightly depressed, as if covered with a layer of frost.

The air pressure around him suddenly solidified.

But in less than half a minute, Lu Lianbai flattened the crumpled note in his hand, folded it back to its original shape, and put it back in his pocket.

Then he looked at the shell bed on the sofa again.

Perhaps he had prepared himself mentally, and he finally put on a straight face, bent down slightly, and picked him up.

Lu Lianbai has been accustomed to living alone since he was a child. When he was a child, he was taken care of by a bionic robot in the Lu residence for several years according to a set program day after day. He learned a programmed life from the behavioral education of the bionic robot.

Later, when he was a teenager, he went to military school. In order to facilitate training, he moved out of Lu's house and became independent early.

In Lu Lianbai's opinion, even the house he lives in now is just a place for him to live. Since he has been fighting outside for many years, his residence only needs to have facilities and space for him to rest and work.

But now, there is a little fish waiting to hatch in the house.

Lu Lianbai cleaned up the empty room next to the study.

Just as he placed the shell bed in there, he saw the little milkfish inside the eggshell sleeping with its tail curled up. His cold, inorganic eyes moved slightly, and the slender knuckles against his side bent, but finally retracted. He retreated silently and returned to his bedroom.

The night is cold and gloomy.

Lu Lianbai still couldn't fall asleep.

He lay on the bed, staring at the cold light patterns on the dome. His face seemed expressionless, but in his hand he held the note that Jing Weiman had left for her. He was reluctant to even use force, and just silently stroked a corner of the note.

Leave without saying goodbye.

He was not allowed to go find her.

And asked him to take good care of her baby.

What do you think of him?

One minute.

Two minutes. Three minutes...

Lu Lianbai silently lifted the quilt and stood up, opening the door to the next room again.

Through precise calculations based on the pupil and iris, it was found that the center of the cushion in the shell bed showed a slightly sunken arc, and the little fish egg was two millimeters to the right, which meant that just after he left, the little fish egg rolled around again in anxiety.

Lu Lianbai stood solemnly beside the crib, staring at the trembling little fish eggs with a gloomy look. After a while, he moved the shell crib out of the room that had just been cleaned up, and carried the crib and the fish eggs back to his bedroom.

Then, he placed the shell bed on the other side of his bed, and then he lay down again. With a cold face, he placed the restless little fish eggs in his palm with steady movements.

He almost held his breath as he meticulously monitored the little fish eggs that nestled softly and obediently in his palm.

The little fish eggs touched Lu Lianbai's fingers through a thin shell, as if they wanted him to touch their shells as well.

But General Lu didn't understand at the moment, and thought that he was not holding the little fish steadily enough, so he adjusted his sitting posture again, and his two hands holding the little fish were almost flat on his tense waist and abdomen, even more serious than when he took part in the major assessment of the military academy as a teenager.

Fortunately, the little fish egg got tired of playing soon, and curled up in the softest part of his palm and fell asleep obediently.

Lu Lianbai did not move the whole time until he confirmed through the transparent eggshell that the little fish had fallen asleep. Then he raised his arm and put the little fish eggs back in the center of the shell bed.

In the dark night, Lu Lianbai stared at the sweet and round little fish eggs on the shell bed and turned on his light brain again.

Not only did he not listen to Jing Weiman's words and withdraw the order to find her, but he also expanded the search range again using the access rights of high-frequency jumpers in major star fields of the empire as a clue.

Afterwards, Lu Lianbai put the note into the protective layer and locked it in the safe with ten layers of keys.

Only then was I able to fall asleep peacefully.

The next morning, Lu Lianbai arrived at the military's strategic hall on time. When the parliamentary process was halfway through and General Qin began to arrange tasks in local star regions, Lu Lianbai turned on the invisible screen of his optical brain.

From the perspective of the bystanders present, Admiral Lu, dressed in a neat military uniform, lowered his eyes and faced the invisible light screen in front of him, as solemn as if he was reviewing an extremely important military document.

In fact, the invisible light screen opens real-time monitoring from the bedroom of the house.

Lu Lianbai stared at the shell bed in the bedroom, carefully observing whether the small fish eggs nestled in the center of the bed had shifted at all.

At the end of the meeting, General Qin called Lu Lianbai into his office and asked, "Lianbai, you've looked very resentful these past few days. Did something happen again?"

Lu Lianbai: “…”

He handed over the transfer application he had prepared. "I'd like to take advantage of the recent stabilization of the war zone and apply to stay at the military base on the capital planet for the next six months."

General Qin was amused after hearing this. "Oh, this is really rare. You, General Lu, actually realized that you are not a bionic robot, but a human being who needs proper rest?"

"..."

General Qin continued to sigh, "This should have happened a long time ago. You really should have taken this opportunity to talk to someone. Tsk tsk, you don't understand how happy it is to have a wife and children and a warm bed."

General Qin took the transfer application and quickly signed it, a smile spreading across his face. "My wife recently redecorated a cozy little nest for the children. I'm so happy every time I get home. If it weren't for the busy schedule at the base, I'd really like to spend more time with my wife and children."

The land search captured the key words "decorate a warm nest for the children", "I am so happy to be back home", and "I really want to spend more time going back".

After a moment, he calmly said, "Take a picture and see."
