Want to be human, but cube-like

On the tranquil floating island, the blue-haired girl, carrying a heavy backpack, returned to the fishing pavilion.

She put down her backpack, patted the actually clean wooden floor, used her coat as a cushion, sat down on it, and then took out two eggs from the backpack next to her.

He picked one up and threw it into the pool below the pavilion.

"Snapped!"

A tiny egg was smashed into water that was only one meter deep, and it shattered instantly.

The broken eggshells floated away and disappeared in the water, while the yolks and whites were completely gone.

"I'm not moving..."

Xiangzi muttered something under his breath.

Then she threw down the egg she was holding in her other hand as well.

"Snapped!"

The second egg also perished almost in vain.

"I'm not moving..."

She repeated the sentence, and then reached into her backpack and took out two more eggs.

"Snapped!"

This was the third egg to fall into the water. The moment it cracked, a small white chick suddenly appeared at the spot where the egg was hit.

"...move away."

Watching the chick flapping its little wings and paddling towards the shore, Xiangzi remained silent for a moment before muttering a sentence.

This large backpack had a total of twenty-seven compartments for Xiangzi to store her things. She had just taken the backpack to the chicken farm and filled it with eggs from the ground, with each compartment holding 16 eggs.

In other words, there are now a total of 432 eggs in this backpack.

This item is one of the cheapest items in Skypiea, second only to rotten flesh, bones, and saplings.

Normally, not many customers order eggs at hamburger shops, so Xiangzi often sees Alex carrying a large pile of eggs and playing around with them at the chicken farm.

After all, even if we don't consume them like this, they'll just rot in the chicken farm. Even if we build another warehouse for the eggs, it won't be able to hold them all.

Besides being eaten, eggs have another function, one that she couldn't understand for a long time.

It's like throwing it out and smashing it, betting on a one in eight chance that a chick will hatch.

However, it must be said that this breeding method is much more convenient than feeding a flock of chickens wheat seeds.

Just then, Xiangzi was caught in a dilemma when she spotted the chicken farm in the distance.

So he simply went and filled a backpack with eggs.

Let the luck that has never been kind to her make the decision for her.

Thinking about her consistently bad luck, and for some inexplicable reason, Xiangzi set a rule: if the last egg hatched into a chick, she would move out of the hamburger shop.

Holding up the fourth egg, Xiangzi took a deep breath and looked away from the chick that had already come ashore and left.

"Snapped!"

This time, as she had predicted, she gained nothing.

"I'm not moving."

Even Xiangzi herself didn't realize that her voice seemed to have relaxed a bit.

"Snapped!"

The fifth one.

"Giggle!"

"...move away."

As the black chick suddenly emerged from the egg for the second time, Xiangzi subconsciously gritted his teeth, and his tone seemed to sink again.

"Snapped!"

The sixth one.

"Giggle!"

For the first time ever, two chicks appeared in a row. This probability even made Xiangzi a little suspicious, wondering if he had remembered Alex's prediction of the chicks' appearance probability in reverse.

"Move away..."

Her voice came out with some difficulty from her throat.

It's okay, there are still so many left in this bag. The last one is the one that will decide everything.

Once again, Xiangzi took a deep breath, then simply picked up his backpack, placed it in front of him, and reached inside with both hands, pulling out two eggs.

"I'm not moving..."

"Move away..."

It's okay, it's a matter of probability, she told herself.

"Move...move..."

Xiangzi paused slightly, then hesitated for a moment.

"Move...away...!"

This time, her voice even carried a hint of gritted teeth.

"I'm not moving!"

The sudden turn of events brought a touch of excitement to Xiangzi's voice.

"I'm not moving!"

As if in retaliation for the three consecutive appearances of chicks, the long-awaited two consecutive failures caused Xiangzi's eyebrows to rise slightly.

Her movements gradually quickened, and she kept muttering to herself until her throat became dry.

As the number of chicks thrown increased, the frequency of chicks appearing in the pool gradually exceeded the speed at which the chicks swam towards the shore.

The eggs start hitting the other chicks, sometimes even two or three times in a row. Then the three chicks will pile up on top of each other, flapping their wings in mid-air, unable to fall for a long time.

They continued until the pool was completely filled with chicks, to the point that the water surface was almost invisible.

Xiangzi then slowed down.

She peeked out.

There were only three eggs left in the backpack.

Looking up at the pavilion again, the surrounding open space was now completely filled with chicks. At a glance, it seemed that there were almost as many chicks as there were in the chicken farm.

There are definitely more than fifty of them here!

Is there something wrong with the probability that Alex told her?

With doubts arising in his mind, Xiangzi nervously looked down again at the three remaining eggs in his hand.

She sat quietly for a while, until all the chicks in the pond had come ashore, before continuing to throw eggs into the pond.

Nothing appeared.

"I'm not moving."

He licked his dry lips and said softly.

"I'm not moving..."

The second one also didn't have a chick.

She took out the last, crucial egg, held it in her hand, nervously swallowed, and then, with her eyes fixed on the pool water below, forcefully threw the egg in.

She held her breath, and felt time begin to slow down.

then.

"Snapped!"

After a crisp cracking sound.

“Giggle, giggle, giggle…!”

A little chick popped out right under Xiangzi's nose.

"move……!"

She instinctively wanted to speak, but then suddenly came to her senses and stopped talking.

The next second, Xiangzi watched helplessly as the chick scattered and became four.

"?!"

How can quadruplets exist?

"Move...move away...?"

She muttered something under her breath, quite reluctantly. Xiangzi sat there for a long time, then gritted her teeth, braced herself on the floor with her hands, and prepared to stand up.

The sudden appearance of four is definitely an exceptional case and doesn't count!

Go get some more eggs and continue!

Or, let's just take the result of the previous egg as the final decision...!

"Xiangzi? You're still awake...?"

With her mind a jumble of random thoughts, Xiangzi hadn't even fully regained her balance when a voice suddenly came from behind her.

A teleportation portal appeared not far away.

"Wow! How come there are so many chickens?!"

Alex is back.

"Ellie...!?"

Startled from his chaotic thoughts by the sudden voice, Xiangzi was immediately taken aback.

Then she lost her balance and slipped.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!"

A panicked scream followed.

"thump!"

He just fell into the pool below.

"Giggle..."

The four chicks that had just been bothering her flapped their wings and slapped Xiangzi's face several times as he fell into the water.

Alex tilted her head and looked over here, her eyes meeting those of Xiangzi who had popped his head out.

"...Are you alright?"

After a long while, she asked softly.

P.S. I don't know why, but I just really want to tease Xiao Xiang a little. So cute and cuddly!

Volume 1: Chapter 174 Protect Alex's purity!

I have a feeling this scene looks familiar...

Standing in the bathroom, Xiangzi, blushing, gave herself a quick rinse and glanced at Alex's blurry figure outside the bathroom door.

He secretly went to the Sky Island to do something silly, and then Alex happened to see him... How embarrassing!

However, after the brief incident, Xiangzi, who had been throwing eggs all by himself for half a day, managed to calm himself down.
