"Change partners?! What will Brother Guan do?" Qu Xiao still has Lao Guan in his heart. As the first person he met in this other world, Qu Xiao still can't let go.

"Don't worry, Mr. Guan. I discussed it with him yesterday. He will be with my former partner Lone Wolf. Don't worry, Lone Wolf is much more reliable than you."

"Haha, that's right..." Qu Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment. Thinking back to the fact that he had caused a lot of trouble to the old manager before, it would be a good idea to replace him like this. At least Xiaolan knew his true identity. Even if he was beaten by him,

Even if he was cheated, Qu Xiao would not feel a strong sense of guilt in his heart.

"Let's go out and talk to the captain."

After putting the map away and hiding it, Qu Xiao followed Xiaolan and walked out. At this time, no one else had gone out yet. After waiting in the square for a while, Muyu got dressed, yawned and opened the door and walked out.

Seeing Xiao Lan and Qu Xiao, Mu Yu was a little surprised: "You two got up very early today..."

It had been a long time since she had seen anyone around her get up earlier than herself.

"It's because you slept too late last night, captain." Xiaolan curled her lips, raised her finger and pointed at the clock hanging on the wall not far away and said, "It's already past the morning meal time. If you get up late again, you will

It’s time to get ready for lunch.”

"Ah?!" Seeing the time, Muyu's expression suddenly froze, and she touched her flat belly. Her face was filled with the word "uncomfortable", "It turns out it's already so late..."

Sitting next to the two of them with a grimace, Mu Yu knew that she would not be able to catch up with breakfast today. Recently, she had been reading information until very late every night, resulting in her not having a hot breakfast for several days.

"By the way, where are the others?"

Glancing around, Muyu found that the doors of other team members were still closed. Xiaolan shook her head, indicating that Muyu and the others probably hadn't gotten up yet.

"What a bunch of slackers!"

Gritting her teeth bitterly, Mu Yu felt that she was infected by other people's laziness in bed, but as a good captain, she was unwilling to forcefully wake up others when nothing was wrong, so she could only feel angry in her heart.

I thought that I must find an opportunity to reorganize the team's internal routine in the future.

"Oh, by the way." Suddenly remembering something, Mu Yu suddenly turned to look at the two of them and asked, "You want to apply to change partners, right?"

"That's right, captain." Xiaolan nodded, "9527 and I came out so early today just to confirm this matter with you."

"The old manager told me yesterday that he agreed to your proposal." Muyu said to Xiaolan, "But he said that he hopes that 9527 can find him later. He has something and wants to talk to 9527 alone.

"

After saying that, Mu Yu turned his gaze to Qu Xiao. Upon seeing this, the latter nodded immediately: "Okay, I have no problem!"

"In that case, from now on, you two will be a new partner." Megure patted the two of them on the shoulders and said, "Although I don't know when you two got together, I have to remind you.

, there is a containment mission to be done this afternoon."

"Are you going to interact with Split?" Qu Xiao rolled his eyes.

Muyu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Thank you for remembering. I will leave this task to you this time, because I can see that you really like it, but 9527 you have to remember that this time

No matter what, you cannot feed it without authorization. If something happens again, you will no longer be qualified to interact with it in the future."

"I understand, captain!" Qu Xiao responded excitedly, "Don't worry, I have deeply reflected on my mistakes last time, and I promise not to mess up this time!"

"Well, I'm willing to believe you again."

…

Returning to the room, Xiaolan also walked in. Qu Xiao asked him to follow him, saying that he had something special to tell him.

Seeing Qu Xiao's sneaky look, Xiao Lan felt a bad feeling in his heart. As expected, as soon as the former opened his mouth, he mentioned something about the afternoon interactive mission.

"I will secretly take away part of the glandular fluid during my mission in the afternoon. Then you can just turn a blind eye and pretend you didn't see anything, okay?"

"Why are you doing this?" Xiaolan was very confused, "Does the glandular fluid have any effect on you?"

Qu Xiao was not prepared to hide the reason, and explained directly: "It is useless for me in this world, but for me in another world, it is very useful. Remember what I told you in the morning that I am in another world.

Is it an identity in the world? As long as I have this thing, I can farm the land there and make a lot of money!"

"So...you can actually carry items from both sides back and forth?!"

"I can't go, I can only go back." Qu Xiao replied, "I can only bring things back from this world, but I can't bring things from that world, and the size of the things I can carry is also very limited. At present, the most is one

Something as big as the palm of your hand."

"So outrageous?!" Even though Xiaolan had an open mind, he also thought this thing sounded incredible. He originally thought that Qu Xiao could only travel by himself, but he didn't expect... that he could even travel with his things.

"No matter how outrageous it is, it's true." Qu Xiao continued to ask in a deep voice, "How about it, are you willing to help me with this?"

"We are now a united front. Of course I will help you." Xiaolan nodded and replied, "But there are surveillance cameras in the containment room. How are you going to avoid that thing's observation?"

"Don't worry about this, I have a way of doing it."

Grinning, Qu Xiao felt quite confident.

…

It wasn't until she and Qu Xiao entered Split's containment room in the afternoon that Xiaolan realized what the "method" Qu Xiao was talking about was.

This guy can actually order Split to temporarily cover the entire surveillance camera with the help of the mucus he spits out!

"How did you do that?!"

Watching Qu Xiao and Split laughing and playing in shock, Xiaolan couldn't believe her eyes!

Isn’t this a containment item?!

How could we be so close to humans!

Even if the two parties can communicate, ordinary people can't do it to this extent!

Seeing Split unsuspectingly slumped in Qu Xiao's arms, Xiaolan felt that the world view he had built collapsed. This was the first time he had seen such a close relative of a contained object, and he had no idea what kind of magic Qu Xiao had used.

.

"I just fed it a little something before." Qu Xiao, the person involved, explained.

As he spoke, Splett was still climbing all over his body, and Qu Xiao was completely indifferent to this.

Just like pets that have been kept for many years, Qu Xiao and Split have a wonderful tacit understanding. It is obvious that the initial contact between the two parties started with a transaction, but for some reason, it has become...

It evolved into friendship.

"I think it should know the sacrifices I made because of this matter." Qu Xiao pointed to the scar on his forehead, Xiaolan's eyes flashed, and he understood the meaning of Qu Xiao's words.

"Do you think it guessed that you were being tortured for feeding it?"

"Yes, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why it was so affectionate with me this time." Qu Xiao said as he reached out to touch Split, who was clinging to his chest and acting coquettishly. "I feel that its intelligence has far exceeded what is shown in the data.

At the level of recording, it not only has the same complete emotions as us, but also has a very excellent ability to think independently."

"So the appearance it showed before was actually a protective measure it took on itself?"

"I think so." Qu Xiao nodded, "Are you right? Jelly."

Jelly is the nickname given to Split by Qu Xiao. This name fits its soft elastic appearance very well, and Split accepts it very well. When Qu Xiao calls out, it spits bubbles in response.

"It's incredible..."

Looking at this harmless shelter in front of him, Xiaolan sighed in his heart. He had never seriously understood the situation of these shelters before. Now it seems that not only him, but most people in this base actually know about it.

These containments exhibit ignorance filled with foolish confidence.

People all think that they have thoroughly studied the contained objects, but as everyone knows, what they get from observing with a research attitude is simply the illusion of conflicting emotions.

Contained objects also have intelligence, and the true level of their intelligence can only be known through heart-to-heart interactions. Just like Splett's current attitude towards Qu Xiao, if Qu Xiao had not accepted cruel punishment at the expense of himself, Splett would have

How can you give him real trust?

The two sides may have been testing each other at first, but now, they have become friends who share the same hardships. Qu Xiao used his scars to prove his attitude to Split. In order to fulfill the promise he made before, he was even willing to go alone

Carrying the pain.

After playing with Split for half an hour, Qu Xiao and Xiao Lan finally took away two tubes of glandular fluid, one large and one small. The little guy was quite reluctant to leave Qu Xiao, but because he stayed for a long time, it would easily arouse suspicion.

, Qu Xiao still had to make up his mind to leave.

Quietly promising Split to play with him again in half a month, Qu Xiao hid the small tube of glandular fluid back in his room under Xiaolan's confidentiality. Then the two of them went to hand over the remaining portion of the glandular fluid. On the way

, Qu Xiao mentioned another need of his to Xiaolan.

"I still need some fin molting."

The fin is the name of the contained object. It looks like a large fin, hence the name.

Xiaolan's eyes narrowed after hearing this: "Fin? Why do you want it to shed its skin?!"

"This is a bit troublesome to explain. Anyway...it's also to make money." Qu Xiao replied, "How about it? Can you find a way to get it for me?"

"You treat me like a tool?" Xiaolan was a little unhappy. She had just changed partners on the first day, and this guy started to take advantage of her.

Qu Xiao just smiled shamelessly at this. His perceptual judgment told him that for people who are familiar with him, Xiaolan's personality should be considered a particularly easy-to-talk type: "Please, help me again~"
