About Me Being Picked Up by Tallulah for Adoption

"Huh—Alina?"

"Ha... ha... Orson, that's great, we've caught up."

For some reason, Xiaolu appeared in front of Orson's door, panting and showing a reassuring smile.

"This is my gift, Orson."

Alina handed several packaged books to Orson.

"Thank you... Actually, there's really no need to do this... Um, Alina?"

Orson looked down at the few books that he had carefully selected at first glance. At this moment, he suddenly felt a tickling feeling in his head.

"No ears really, Orson."

Alina gently stroked Orson's head with her left hand, then slightly lowered her head and rubbed against Orson with her horn.

"Okay, it's itchy...don't do that"

"Alina!"

Tallulah at the side couldn't sit still when she saw Alina's combo.

"Hey, this is a way to bring good luck, Tallulah wants to try it too?"

Alina raised her head with a smile and looked at Tallulah.

"Don't..., no, I want to...!"

At first, Tallulah was a little awkward and wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, she seemed to be making money without losing money, and she also blushed and wanted to fencing with Alina (?).

"Take a good rest, Orson, you have worked hard enough, please be a little lazy."

Alina smiled and nodded to Orson, and Orson said that he would not worry everyone anymore.

Although he still wanted to stay and watch Tallulah and Alina's post, but if Tallulah ignited, he would definitely be unlucky, so Orson could only drag his luggage out of the room.

"This is not a parting. Your behavior is a bit too formal. Do you want to create some memories with this, or do you hope to make you feel at ease in this way?"

Orson sat in the car, and Kelsey in the driver's seat asked Orson lightly.

"Because... I don't know, probably because everyone really cares about me."

"You have a good group of companions."

Kelsey ended the topic briefly, and then started the engine.

——In that case, why did you exist like that in the past?Is it because of me?Was it countless wars, betrayals, and despair that made you an 'evil spirit', and even led the tragedy that I will never forgive?

Kelsey didn't ask Orson, she knew that she was probably the only one in this world who would regard the young man next to her as a "doctor".

"This is a gift from Frost Star, [refrigerant bag that can be squeezed to cool down]? It looks very dangerous—click!"

Orson didn't finish his sentence, because of the bumping of the car, he accidentally crushed the refrigerator.

"..." "...throw that thing away!"

Kelsey directly summoned mon3tr to throw the refrigerator out of the cab. In the next second, half of the street behind him was instantly covered by a layer of ice.

"The cooling effect is too good... um, there is a note?"

Orson, who was still in shock, found a note in the wrapping paper of Refrigerator:

“[Sorry, Orson! Although I want to make a unique gift for you, but there is really not enough time, so I can only use semi-finished products as a substitute... All in all, don’t use refrigeration treasures outside of the fire scene]… ...?"

Orson sighed, with a look of helplessness on your face, while Kelsey glanced at the young man beside him.

——Thinking about it, at least this time the doctor is no longer the most "abnormal" existence.

Because there are a lot of guys in the integration movement who are even more outrageous (in every sense) than Orson. "Isn't this the route to the port?"

On the way, Orson noticed that Kelsey was not heading for the port, but the very familiar underground power zone of Qiecheng.

"The transport plane in Rhodes Island is still charging, and it will take about 40 minutes to arrive at Chernobog. During this time, I am going to observe the state of the sarcophagus."

Kelsey parked the car aside, not far away was the 'sarcophagus' where Amiya and the others had conflicted just before.

"Don't you need a scientific research team? I remember that Amiya brought many engineering operators here before."

Orson followed Kelsey and asked each other.

"No, no one understands sarcophagi better than I do—what are you laughing at, Dr. Orson?"

Kelsey frowned slightly, looking at Orson who suddenly burst out laughing beside him.

"It's nothing, I just feel like I heard a famous line."

Orson put away his smile, his initial reputation with Kelsey was already "hatred", he better not accidentally provoke her again.

The two arrived at the location of the sarcophagus. This time, Kelsey turned on the surrounding preparatory lighting equipment with ease, and the white light immediately illuminated the underground room where the sarcophagus was located.

Orson noticed for the first time that the so-called "sarcophagus" is actually not only a coffin board that can lie on people, but also a lot of complicated and unclear equipment behind it.

"..."

Kelsey reached out and touched the wall lightly. She seemed to recall something here, but she immediately withdrew her palm before Orson noticed her, and looked at the boy.

"How much do you know about this thing?"

Kelsey asked Orson, who was observing the mysterious object in front of him, and the latter tilted his head.

"The reactor that provides the energy to cut the city?"

"This is just one of the functions of the sarcophagus, and even this so-called function is just the excess energy to keep the sarcophagus on standby. The real purpose of the sarcophagus is medical equipment for a 'race' like you."

Kelsey walked up to Orson, and couldn't help but hold Orson's palm.

"Kay, Dr. Kelsey?"

"Come, touch here."

Kelsey took Orson's palm and rested it on a panel of the sarcophagus.

"Genetic test match, welcome, Dr. Orson"

The mechanically synthesized female electronic voice reappeared, and at the same time, many visual panels that Orson did not understand appeared around the sarcophagus.

"You mean [medical equipment]? How can this thing be used for medical treatment?"

Orson looked at the sarcophagus curiously, but couldn't connect it with medical supplies.

"I won't explain the details. I don't like to demonstrate unconfirmed conjectures. In short, what do you think is such a machine useful?"

Kelsey asked Orson what he was operating on the panel at the same time.

"Didn't it be said to be medical equipment before? In that case, it is saving people and treating diseases?"

If Kelsey hadn't said it was a medical device before, Orson would probably have guessed that it was an electric heating tub.

"Medical equipment is divided into many types, temporary treatment of wounds, slow penetration of blood, and auxiliary treatment for recovery, but these are not the capabilities of the sarcophagus. This machine—its treatment method is 'reverse regression'."

Kelsey was leaning against the sarcophagus, with her hands folded on her chest, as if she was looking at Orson, as if recalling something.

"Reverse regression...?"

Nouns I have never heard of, and I can't imagine the working mechanism from these words.

"This machine has been designed from the beginning to only allow the [human] species to treat injuries. As long as the subject's physiological functions have not completely stopped, injuries can be treated."

"You know a lot, Dr. Kelsey."

"Because I used to be the leader of the sarcophagus laboratory - Lyudmila's father was one of my students. I joined Ilya's scientific research team, and the goal is to analyze and prove the mechanism of this machine."

——Is that why Kelsey is so familiar with the sarcophagus and the surrounding environment?

The information that I never knew was told by Kelsey in this way.

"Of course, you should have heard the results of the laboratory from Lyudmila. All the participants were killed, and their families and children were connected. And I am the betrayer, the black hand behind everything."

"Is that really the case? Doctor Kelsey, when you think the time is right, you may be able to tell me and Lyudmila the truth of the incident. I believe you will not be that kind of person."

Orson interrupted Kelsey's self-cursing narration, which made the green cat Maotou slightly stunned.

"...You never trust anyone, but still, thank you for your trust."

Kelsey sighed and skipped the subject.

"I never thought I would meet you in this way, in this capacity, doctor—no, you don't even have the concept of [doctor] right now. But to me, you are her continuation, no matter what No matter what method is used, I will not change this observation result."

Kelsey said calmly, she knew that others could not understand her act of treating Orson as a 'doctor', but she still would not change or shake this point of view.

Because of this, Kelsey is always unable to separate him from the doctor when he has a special gentle (chi dun) personality in front of him, and this sense of difference has always made Kelsey very awkward.

"Doctor, just a doctor, as long as you don't suddenly use that monster to knock me to the ground..."

Orson rubbed his hair. Anyway, for him, it's not like he hasn't been the evil spirit of the Tower of Babel, or the fool of Rhodes Island.

Of course, even so, Orson still doesn't know what happened between the 'Doctor' and Kelsey, which is not mentioned in the original work.

"Three and a half years ago, I transported you, who was seriously injured, to the sarcophagus. This behavior was requested by you personally, because only the sarcophagus can heal the injuries you suffered at that time."

Kelsey glanced at the empty sarcophagus, regardless of the outcome, the "disappearance" of [Doctor] has become an established fact.

"As for the treatment method, as I just said, this machine will use [human beings] as the basic blueprint for reverse regression. First of all——"

Kelsey stopped again mid-sentence, but Orson knew it wasn't because the topic was top-secret this time, but because she was shocked by some kind of discovery.

"What's the matter, Dr. Kelsey?"

Orson approached curiously and asked, after all, Kelsey's surprised expression was rare in his impression.

"The sarcophagus is missing a module that fuses the transcriptional process."

Kelsey put her hands on the keyboard and kept searching for something, and then she brought up a window that looked like an error log, showing a surprised expression again.

"The sarcophagus was powered off three years ago, and the module was disassembled at that time—is it her act...?"

"What module?"

"The middle and back part of the reverse regression process is the [Fusion Transcription] module. The so-called reverse regression is to analyze and extract the user's conscious memory, go back to the physical body, and then transcribe the extracted thing back. And the fusion transcription module, as the name implies That is - a module that stores the extracted consciousness and imports it again."

Kelsey looked at Orson, and the PAD personal terminal in his hand displayed a picture, on which was a cube like a Rubik's cube, covered with electronic patterns.

"...I seem to have seen this thing before."

Although it was extremely hazy, like recalling a dream after waking up, Orson still vaguely felt that he had seen this strange device somewhere.

"—Sure enough, Dr. Orson."
