Before Suri could finish speaking, Saria silenced her with a kiss. However, even so, Saria and Suri could still communicate directly through telepathy.

'This is what you wanted, isn't it? You little rascal.' Saria thought viciously to herself, while tightening her grip on Suri, as if to satisfy her possessiveness.

"Weren't you just concerned about this being a public place?" Suri mocked Saria, only to be met with an even more forceful response from Saria.

'Hmph~'

On the beach, there were quite a few couples who gathered together for intimate moments under the evening glow, and Suri and Saria were among them.

However, most people only touch each other and kiss, after all, this is a public place.

However, Suri did find a nice spot in the scanned field of vision. It was quiet and had a good view. The courtyard, formed by the sea, would not be discovered by anyone. If she came at a different time, the sun would be shining brightly.

Suri showed the place directly to Saria, along with a map.

After seeing the route map, Saria, who was already quite impatient, immediately hugged Suri and tried to take him there, but Suri reached out and pressed down on her shoulder.

Although Suri was being held in Saria's arms and Saria's grip on her shoulders did nothing to stop Saria, Saria stopped and waited for Suri to continue after sensing that Suri wanted to soothe her.

"Ifrit is still here, and you're really planning to go away for several hours? By the time we're done, Ifrit will probably have already called Rhodes Island to say we're missing, right?"

“Can’t you just communicate with Ifrit directly using your phone?” Saria still thought she could convince Suri, only to be met with an annoyed glare from Suri.

“I already said it would be better to come tomorrow, the scenery would be even better. We can go back today too, don’t be in such a hurry. We still have Ifrit with us, it’s irresponsible of you to bring her like this.”

As Suri finished speaking, Saria's inner turmoil gradually subsided. After taking a deep breath, she slowly nodded to Suri: "I understand, Suri. Thank you for your reminder earlier."

"Hmm." Suri shrugged, running her fingers along Saria's collar:

"Let's go see if Ifrit has had enough fun. If it's about time, we should head back too."

"Mm." Saria nodded and pulled Suri towards Ifrit, who was also a bit tired from playing and whose movements in the water with her friends were not as energetic as before.

"Ifrit, it's about time, we should head back."

“Okay~” Ifrit drew out her reply, then quickly ran to Suri and Saria’s side:

"let's go?"

Suri reached out and touched Ifrit's forehead. It was warm, and she couldn't tell if it was sweat or seawater warmed by her body heat while they were playing.

Ifrit nuzzled Suri's hand, like a puppy being petted.

"What do you want to eat tonight?" Suri asked Saria, somewhat bored.

"The professor said you can cook, could you cook something for me to try?"

"Okay, but let's make it clear first, it's only edible, so don't get your hopes up."

Volume 4, Chapter 237: Saria: I was careless.

Children don't feel tired when they are playing, but they will feel sleepy after the excitement of playing wears off.

Just like Ifrit now, she was already getting drowsy after walking with Suri and Saria on the streets at night for only a short while.

Without saying a word, Saria picked up Ifrit and placed her on one of her arms. Then, she weighed her in her arms and looked at Suri with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong? I can walk by myself. You're looking at me strangely. What are you thinking about?"

Suri looked at Saria, who simply stared at her without saying a word.

"I was wondering how you can weigh less than Ifrit... even though you have a perfectly normal figure."

"Because of the different body density, although I appear to be a Vaiva, I am actually just a few attachments that are not easy to fall off added to my human body."

As Suri spoke, he displayed the scan results of his body in Saria's field of vision, comparing them with the scan results of Saria's own body:

"Although my physical strength, that is, my ability to withstand damage, is far superior to that of other Terrans, in terms of physical attributes, I am not as good as the original Vayvan. It's a bit like putting all my points into defense."

Although she didn't understand the numbers in the game, Saria could still understand the simplified way Suri had described it and nodded.

"Want to come?"

"What? This is all so abrupt! Say it all out loud!" Suri looked at Saria with a puzzled expression, then complained somewhat impatiently.

"Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of dying anyway, so why did the higher-level system set the defense to be so high? Is there a problem? Isn't this a waste of points? No, I need to have a serious talk with her about this."

Saria couldn't help but smile. As Suri began to confront the superior system, she came to Suri's side, squatted down, and put her free arm under Suri's legs, letting Suri sit on her other arm.

Thus, Saria carried Ifrit and Suri on either side of her as they walked through the night streets of Siesta towards Rhodes Island.

People passing by couldn't help but cast envious glances at her.

Suri glanced at Saria, sat on her arm, and began to discuss things mentally with the higher-level system:

"Mom? Are you there? Can we discuss the composition of my body?"

【no. 】

"Why? I can easily replace my body if it breaks down, so why have such high defense points?"

The superior system ignored Su Rui, but simply marked a dialog box to tell her that she was listening.

"And think about it, what if I could die protecting my loved one in a battle at the very end of the simulation? Wouldn't that be amazing? Just thinking about it makes me so excited..."

"...It will hurt a lot, are you sure?"

"There's no need to worry, it's just a little pain, I can handle it."

Su Rui was very confident about this. He was willing to give up his body, so why would he be afraid of this little bit of pain?

You'll regret this, but I promised. Next time the simulation starts, your physical defenses will be lowered, but your other armor types will be strengthened again.

"That's good. The conversation is over. By the way, is there anything you'd like to say?"

I will always be watching over you.

"Sounds like a peeping tom. Okay, I'm logging off now, Old Deng~"

Suri's temper changed faster than flipping through a book, and Saria couldn't help but think this after reading the entire conversation.

When they returned to Rhodes Island, Ifrit was already asleep, leaning on Saria's shoulder. Saria gently placed the little girl on the bed, and then they heard a knock on the door.

Saria opened the door in confusion and was surprised to find that it was the Doctor standing there.

Although you can't see the face under the hood, the doctor's smiling voice can still be heard during the forest tour:

"You want Suri to cook tonight, right? Mind if I come over for dinner?"

"Of course I don't mind. Do you know how good Suri's cooking is?" Saria stepped aside to let the Doctor into the room, asking with some curiosity.

"In the past, the actual quality was average, but it was still quite delicious. Now... it's hard to say."

The doctor shrugged: "But surely Suri wouldn't make us eat a lump of charcoal, would she?"

Saria nodded and chatted with the Doctor about their research at the dining table for a while.

"Speaking of which, didn't you ask Su Rui to help you coordinate the research data? It seems the experiment isn't progressing as quickly as you expected."

The Doctor's words startled Saria, and the Doctor, noticing Saria's expression, was also taken aback:

"Didn't Suri tell you? His ability is super computing power; scanning the field of vision is just a specific manifestation of this ability."

“…I remember, but I didn’t expect it.” Saria wanted to say that she just didn’t want to cheat during the research, but how could there be any cheating in research? As long as the result is genuine and can be repeatedly verified, that’s enough.

"I never expected that Saria would make such a mistake. But now that you know, you can get rid of Suri."

“Hmm.” Saria nodded, then looked towards the kitchen. “However, I want to spend a few days with Suri like this first, and then ask him for help.”

"She's very gentle. Suri will be very happy." The Doctor nodded. Saria didn't answer, but turned her head to look in the direction of the kitchen, her cheeks flushed slightly.

Suri, who was in the kitchen, also prepared a few dishes according to her memory, and then leaned against the kitchen doorway and looked at Saria: "Dinner is ready, come and help."

Dinner had a variety of options, including spaghetti bolognese, ham and cheese pizza, borscht, and of course, apple pie.

"Dishes from different countries, huh? By the way, are there any famous Colombian dishes?"

"I don't mean to be sarcastic, but does Colombia have any historically significant dishes? Or anything even remotely famous?"

Suri glanced at the Doctor with some confusion, then looked at Saria.

"Sandwich, hot dog, or hamburger?" Saria was also undecided.

“Well, this discussion is indeed a bit difficult for Columbia. What about Ifrit? She's asleep right now. Should we wake her up and get her something to eat?”

Suri skipped the topic and looked towards the bedroom.

Saria shook her head: "Ifrit should be fast asleep by now, how about we make it up to her tomorrow?"

A sly glint flashed in Saria's eyes. If Suri was cooking, she couldn't just make Ifrit's portion; then Ifrit could have another meal.

Volume 4, Chapter 238: Bright Sunshine

Okay, but just remember to wake me up, I tend to oversleep easily.

Suri didn't care about such a small matter; it was just cooking, and she had the patience for it.

The doctor looked at the dinner in front of him and a smile appeared on his lips. Different foods from three countries, it seems that Suri already has at least four hosts.

After dinner, the doctor greeted Suri: "Then I won't disturb you two young lovers any longer. Have a good time together."

"Goodbye, Doctor." Saria nodded, a hint of shyness in her eyes, and subconsciously glanced at Suri beside her.

Su Rui waved her hand dismissively: "Go away, go away. If you know, don't say it out loud."

The doctor smiled, turned and left the room, gently closing the door behind him.

After the Doctor left, Saria came to Suri's side, placed her hand on his shoulder, lowered her head, and whispered in Suri's ear:

"Could you lock the door?"

“Of course.” Su Rui nodded, then locked the electronic door to the dormitory.

Hearing the click of the electronic door locking, Saria smiled and then scooped Suri up in her arms.

Now that there's no risk of being discovered, she can do whatever she wants.

"Wait a minute, what if Ifrit gets woken up?"

Suri instinctively tried to struggle: "How about we go somewhere else?"

"Don't worry, Ifrit has been sleeping very soundly lately. Without the worries about those experiments, the little one is in very good spirits."

As Saria spoke, she reached out and hugged Suri, leading her towards another room. "Since you want to be safer, let's go to the study."

So, when Ifrit woke up the next morning, she found herself lying on a soft, large bed.

The dazed little girl slowly got up and went outside, where she found Saria leaning against the window of the balcony, looking somewhat listless. Saria was holding a steaming cup of coffee in her hand, but she didn't open her eyes.

Did Saria not sleep well? Ifrit instinctively covered her mouth, afraid that she might accidentally wake Saria.

However, with Saria's perception abilities, even without the warning from Suri's scanning vision, she still noticed Ifrit's actions of opening and closing the door.

Saria opened her eyes and paused for a moment when she saw Ifrit: "You're awake already, Ifrit. Suri is making breakfast, it'll be ready soon."

As she spoke, Saria picked up her coffee cup and slowly sipped it.

Evelyn nodded, sitting at the table with a hint of melancholy: "Okay~"

Today she's going out to set up her stall, and Ifrit finds herself starting to miss the fun she had yesterday.

The feeling of not wanting to go to work has begun to affect this young girl who has not yet entered the workforce.

How could this be? I quite like barbecue, after all. Ifrit was puzzled, so she turned her gaze to Saria:

"Saria, I feel like something's not right."

"Hmm, don't want to set up a stall? That's a normal feeling. I've been through that before, and you'll get used to it eventually."

Seeing Ifrit's expression, Saria could pretty much guess what she was thinking.

"I know."

Ifrit lay slumped over the table, her cheek pressed against the slightly cool surface, still unable to shake off her melancholy.

"Um, could you come with me this morning?"

"Suri and I are planning to go to the beach, so we should be going the same way as you."

Saria's words offered Ifrit a little comfort.

At this moment, Suri brought out breakfast: bread, milk, and apple pie—a very simple breakfast. Suri didn't put too much sugar in the apple pie, since the Sarkaz's tastes were different from other Terrans.

The sweet apple pie at least cheered Ifrit up a bit, but she still felt somewhat lost as she followed Suri and Seria to the beach.
