While holding other children is similar, Chu Yinan is different. Jiang Xuanya had previously read about the different types of women's allure to men in various women's online magazines.

The charm of tomboys is quite interesting. The appeal of these girls to men lies in their lack of girlish affectation combined with their feminine cuteness. Simply put, they are as good as buddies, but can also satisfy physical needs when necessary.

Jiang Xuanya saw a similar side to Xiao Chu Nan: he was well-behaved and obedient, without any of the mischievousness of a spoiled little boy. Women always find it hard to resist such cute creatures, and he was also quite practical in some ways.

Having a younger brother like this means she no longer needs men; for her, it's truly perfect.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Xuanya became even more jealous of Bei Yutang. And Xiao Chunan was the same. Bei Yutang's personality was so terrible, how come he couldn't be coaxed?

What tricks did Bei Yutang use to make him so sympathetic to her?

"Why are you sweating? Did you just run? Your heart is pounding." Jiang Xuanya placed her hand on Chu Yinan's chest and could clearly feel the dampness and heat under his clothes.

Chu Yinan had no choice; he had just sprinted back at full speed, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to overtake Jiang Xuanya. He hadn't even warmed his seat yet.

Sweating is inevitable, but in this godforsaken place like Visbel, you have to be covered with a blanket even if you don't turn on the air conditioning, and you really do sweat if you don't do any strenuous exercise.

"This is... I rushed back because I had diarrhea, and went straight to the bathroom. It was quite stuffy there, so I've been sweating ever since. I'm almost completely exhausted from all the diarrhea." Chu Yinan subtly ignored the fact that her heart was beating fast.

"what?"

Jiang Xuanya supported him under his armpits, turned him around and picked him up, making him face her. The little guy's lips were indeed a bit pale (actually, he was exhausted from running).

"What did you eat? All the girls in your class seem fine. I have some medicine; I'll take you to my room later."

Chu Yinan shook her head: "No need, I'm much better now. I still need to go back to class to show my face later, and then I'll come back early to take a shower. As for food, a few boys in this class bought random things, like lamb testicles to roast, but they probably weren't roasted properly, and they all got diarrhea after eating them."

Jiang Xuanya didn't understand what "sheep testicles" meant, assuming it was some local specialty ingredient.

"It's alright. I'll take you back to your class later."

Given the little guy's condition, Jiang Xuanya felt it inappropriate to bring him to her class to play. She got up and went to the inner room to pour Chu Yinan a cup of hot water. After watching him drink it, she accompanied him back to his class, reminded him that he could get medicine from her if he felt unwell, and then left.

Honestly, returning to class was purely accidental. He still doesn't understand why Sister Xuan Ya wanted to see him, but it doesn't seem to be anything serious, so it's best not to investigate.

There weren't many people at the class's dormitory. Those with partners went to meet their partners, while those without partners went to chat with their colleagues from other departments.

Chu Yinan grilled a skewer of chicken wings, rinsed them in lemon water, ate them with relish, and then returned to his usual spot to squat down in the evening.

Will we not be fooled by that Vallis again this time?

After confirming his location and making sure it wouldn't be used by Valis, he chatted with the AI ​​sisters with peace of mind, explaining the situation to them in detail.

If it's related to the children of Turing Tower, it's better to ask the two older sisters in Turing Tower, which was the original nursery.

[Chu Yinan: ...That's how it is. This girl named Vallis, who can transform, is from Turing Tower, right?]

He was quite worried that someone might impersonate her, but with Valise's talent, ordinary people couldn't imitate her.

[Fu Xi: That child's real name is Vallis now. Your older sister used to bully you a lot when you were little, riding on your head and pulling your hair.]

Chu Yinan subconsciously touched his hair. This was too cruel. Luckily, my hair roots are strong, otherwise I would have gone bald.

However, after Fu Xi mentioned it, he vaguely remembered it.

Previously, when Aunt Liu showed videos of her baby, there seemed to be one video of a baby girl with red eyes riding on him and playing...

[Chu Yinan: So what are her abilities, and what about the price Vallis mentioned for her talent?]

[Qilin: The talent we gave Vallis is 'mask,' which you can think of as optical camouflage and pheromone disguise. These can change how others perceive her. She is still herself; it's just that your brain has been fooled. Take a picture of her, and she'll be exposed.]

Outrageous!

However, this kind of deception should only be one-way. For example, I might think that she is having an intimate conversation with Yu Tang, but someone who doesn't know Yu Tang would immediately recognize that this is Valis.

[Chu Yinan: I increasingly feel that my talent is useless, and Vallis even mentioned the price. What's going on?]

Chapter 54 Ask the teacher if you don't understand

[Qilin: It can indeed be understood as a cost, but our definition is compensation. For example, your 'reproduction' takes up too much nutrition, which prevents you from growing taller.]

If we categorize speech into different timbre levels, Marissa's vocalization requires significantly more energy. You could think of her as constantly humming high-quality lullabies, which leads to excessive physical exertion and weakens her body, resulting in a generally weak constitution.

Chu Yinan first heard the term "compensation" in the fitness field, specifically in the context of facial compensation.

Many more engaging fitness tutorials say that to evaluate the quality of your set of exercises and their training effect, you should look at how contorted your facial expression is, that is, how well your facial compensation is done.

Of course, this is just an interesting saying.

Chu Yinan wanted Marisa to be healthy, but although she was said to have a weak constitution, it wasn't really that obvious. Marisa was just a little less athletic, and she would get tired very quickly when shopping.

[Chu Yinan: What is Navarris's compensation?]

[Qilin: In terms of psychological needs, she constantly seeks higher levels of spiritual fulfillment, somewhat like Heinrich.]

She's a bit like the female father, which means they're both pleasure-seeking types.

However, there are definitely differences. Heinrich did it because he thought it would be fun, while Vallis probably had no choice but to do it.

[Fu Xi: Vallis's talent, under normal circumstances, makes it easy for others to see whomever they want to see. Constantly playing the role of a 'substitute' will accumulate distorted psychological pressure. But this is probably still considered a good thing.]

Chu Yinan was taken aback for a moment. Was Valise's condition considered "okay"?

[Chu Yinan: What kind of compensation did your older brothers and sisters receive?]

[Qilin: Gluttony, thirst, insomnia, etc. Incidentally, the thirst manifests as a persistent craving for water even when the body is intoxicated. We didn't immediately detect this compensatory mechanism, and even after discovering it, we couldn't stop it immediately.]

Chu Yinan was stunned for a moment, feeling as if several huge stones had been thrown into his heart, making him feel slightly heavy.

[Chu Yinan: Is it a classified document?]

Fu Xi: Yes.

If there were any conspiracy theories involved, Chu Yinan felt that it was somewhat unbelievable.

It is quite noticeable that the talents of the children from Turing Tower are gradually weakening, and the corresponding compensation is so light that it has almost no impact.

The various forms of compensation mentioned by Qilin are extremely serious and could potentially endanger their lives. They are unable to eat but have to continue eating, or they are already water intoxicated but have to keep drinking water... Correspondingly, the talents of their older brothers and sisters must also be incredibly strong.

This sounds like some kind of superhuman army. If AIs really want to create such an extraordinary group of children, is it necessary to weaken their talents and reduce the impact of compensation later on?

This doesn't align with the logic of how AI works.

It is estimated that there may have been other factors at the beginning of the "AI parenting" project. They were either kept in the dark about the compensation relationship, or they were forced to continue in accordance with some kind of mandatory contract after they knew about the compensation relationship.

Their method of resistance is to continuously weaken the impact of compensation.

Looking back now, it seems rather strange that the initial group of children were asked to be adopted and not allowed to grow up and grow old in Turing Tower.

So, wouldn't Chu Yinan be completely ignored because his talent was too useless? Instead, Aunt Liu picked him up and took him back to play with like a baby who never grew up.

The heaviness in his heart made Chu Yinan's fingers feel as if they were filled with lead. He sent a voice message in a low voice:

"I feel like I've accidentally learned something very serious."

[Fu Xi: There's no need to worry about it. What happened back then is over. You don't need to fret over something that wasn't your fault. If you really want to do something, you should find a way to keep Vallis here and take her to the Twin Islands.]

“I can recognize her already. Why don’t you just send a drone over to pick her up and take her back?” Chu Yinan felt that this was the safest approach.

[Qilin: You shouldn't be so rough with your own children.]

I think you were pretty rough with me that night, like you were trying to squeeze me like a sugarcane...

However, what Sister Qilin said makes sense. Valise's spirit is somewhat related to her talent, and it wouldn't be good for her to resort to violence against her own people.

Now that Vallis has come face to face with him, giving him the opportunity to compete head-on, it's already very good news.

"Okay, then I'll try my best to get a high score in this date mission."

----------

The barbecue party ended quickly.

The messy beach is cleaned up by designated personnel; students only need to pile their class's trash together.

The ebb and flow of the tide washes away the footprints left by the students on the beach, and the beach in Visbel falls into the tranquility of the night. The guests in the guesthouse area also gradually turn off their lights and go to bed.

Chu Yinan slept with two teachers again.

"Ms. Iori, don't you need to lock the door?" Chu Yinan looked at the living room door, which was not locked, and felt uneasy.

Risa Iori sighed wearily at her lost beauty sleep, explaining:

"The rooms in the teachers' area cannot be locked before midnight, in case some students need help and we can't find them in time. We have to keep watch until after midnight before we can sleep, and our mobile phones cannot be turned off or silenced."

That's terrible. I need to make sure no one around me becomes a teacher from now on!

Ms. Iori and the school doctor, Bachmann, had already finished showering. They were still wearing their nightgowns when they came out of the shower. After lying on the bed for about ten minutes, they remembered their night watch and got up to change their clothes.

However, Chu Yinan knew that the two of them had been lazy in their dressing... they weren't wearing any undergarments!

Don't ask how I know.

"Then, can I sleep in the empty room next door? I'm sleepy, I can't sleep with the lights on here." Chu Yinan sat on the straw mat on the floor, hugging his pillow, not daring to go to bed and fall asleep under the watchful eyes of the two mature and beautiful female teachers.

Ms. Iori sat on the edge of the bed, her two black-stockinged feet dangling in front of him: "I saw a mouse crawl across the bed next door. Besides, isn't it better to sleep on this bed?"

The claim that rats were crawling on the ground was a bit far-fetched. Chu Yinan could only offer an excuse:

"I have a stiff neck, so I'm not comfortable sleeping on a soft bed. The floor is fine."

There's a reason he doesn't want to sleep in bed, and why he's hugging a pillow right now—the roasted lamb testicles that Song Maren bought are really harmful, why are their effects so long-lasting!

"Whatever you want. If you're sleepy, go to bed early." The woman was casual; since the little one was asleep, they could play as they pleased.

Chu Yinan knew what she was up to and was a little hesitant to sleep. He yawned and suddenly remembered that he had sought advice from Teacher Yizhi before, and perhaps he could get some more ideas this time:

"Iori-sensei, I have a question for you. Are there any interactive games that are both competitive and won't cause any friction?"

Chapter 55 Failed Attempt to Catch Adulterers

Chu Yinan had tasted success with Teacher Yizhi last time, and now he wanted to use the same trick again.

Iori Risa, assuming he wanted to play games with his classmates, and since keeping watch was boring anyway, offered him some suggestions:

"Your request is too vague. 'Not hurting feelings' is a false proposition. As long as the other party is vindictive, even if you smile in a friendly manner, they will hold a grudge. As for competitiveness, playing cards is very competitive. Anything that has a winner and loser will be like that."

Chu Yinan knew that he had been too vague, but he couldn't describe Valise's strange condition directly.

He could only hold the pillow in one hand and scratch his ear with the other, racking his brains to come up with a few adjectives to precisely describe his requirements.

The school nurse at Bachmann was filming a moisturizing toner, and she also helped come up with this so-called interactive game. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"Let me suggest some simple games. Can we use our ears to identify songs? We can shuffle the accompaniment and lyrics of several songs and let the students guess them. They can even work together to guess. This would greatly reduce the chances of conflict. If they can even argue about this, I think it's more of a human problem."
