I have no doubt that as soon as the beeper leaves my hand, it will tear the beeper to pieces.

"Hey baby, calm down."

While stroking the top of its head with my hand, I hid the beeper behind my back.

It didn't move at all, its eyes fixed on the beeper I hid behind, and the low growl in its throat became louder and louder.

"It's just a small beeper." Words didn't help, so I changed the way and put the beeper in front of it, "Look!"

I took the initiative to stick the pager to its paws, rubbed it lightly a few times, and got its smell.

Judging from its previous reaction, it has a strong sense of territory, and its smell indicates that things that belong to it may be much better.

It slapped the calling device in my hand away with one paw. If I hadn't hugged its body in time, it would have rushed to tear the calling device to pieces.

"Hey, what's the matter with you!" I grabbed it by the shoulders and lifted it up to my eyes, straightening its head, "Look into my eyes."

It avoided my sight uncharacteristically, twisting back and forth in my arms with dodgy eyes.

"Sit down and don't move! Those who don't obey are bad boys, bad Master!"

It twisted and sat down on my lap with its head down.

"That's right, good boy!" I rubbed its head, picked up the pager that was patted aside by it, pinned it to my waist, and then took out the card I had prepared in my arms.

"We keep learning."

"This is the ocean, this is the land, and this is the sky."

I pointed to the words on the card and read them one by one corresponding to the pictures above.

"This is the outside world."

I have been locked in this small man-made space since I was born. I can't change this situation now, but I still want to show the outside world in front of its eyes.

"That's a pretty beautiful world, bigger than here, more fish, more people, more..." I opened my hand and tried to gesture to it, "No need to draw blood, and it won't be in the world every day." Living under someone else's watch..."

"Kamilla...there?"

Wet paws rest on the card.

Stared at by those pure and clean eyes, my throat felt as uncomfortable as a fishbone choked, and I even forgot to sigh that it had learned a new word.

"Yes, where am I?"

Its eyes flickered and then flickered.

"Monster...there?"

"No, you're not here."

I reached out to hold those eyes, put them in my arms, and whispered in its ear.

"But, I will always be with you."

Until the experiment was completed and my father came.

Its body trembled violently, its eyes were covered, I couldn't see its eyes clearly, and I didn't want to look.

I was like a coward, afraid to say anything but hug it tightly.

Maybe it was my promise that made a difference, and Merster became much better-behaved later, following me in reading and spelling words.

I think the pictures on the card can't show the scene very well, so I opened the notebook and found a lot of related pictures for it.

I also have to thank the Murkafe Institute for its comprehensive coverage of the wireless network. Although I cannot communicate with the outside world except for sending emails, I can still surf the Internet for entertainment.

Merster was terribly quiet. It didn't pounce on me like it did before, but sat quietly by the side, staring at my laptop screen without blinking.

That looks like a serious and studious human child.

"It's clear that just now he looked unwilling to study."

I smiled and shook my head.

Even his personality is exactly the same as that of an 8-year-old child. If he is interested, he will be serious, and if he is not interested, he will not even look at it.

Time flies, and getting along with Master is the happiest time I have ever had in the institute. I can't feel the passage of time when I stay with it.

It wasn't until I felt the burning pain of hunger in my stomach that I realized that I had forgotten to eat while I was with it.

"Sorry, Master, time is up, I have to leave and rest."

I pointed to the dial on my wrist at it.

Biologists have an iron rule in their research, no matter how close they are to the subjects they are studying, especially if they are facing such unknown creatures, they must never spend the night with them.

Because you don't know whether the eyes it looks at you think you are a reliable partner or can store prey for stocking.

This is the iron rule that my father believed in, and so do I.

"I'm leaving, stay here obediently, I'll come and see you tomorrow."

I patted its head and kissed its cheek as comfort.

Just as I stood up, it grabbed the hem of my dress.

I'm going to fall in love again.

I turned my head knowingly, and put my face in front of it.

"Hurry up a little bit, it's a bit late today..."

"Kamilla."

It looked at me fixedly, but it didn't come up to rub my cheek.

The light in the golden eyes flickered on and off, and it raised the corners of its mouth, pulling out an extremely gentle smile.

Yes, extremely gentle.

"Monster...there."

Then it let go of its claws.

The door closed slowly, and the creature on the other side of the door still stood there, motionless.

The sigh-like tone still echoed in my ears.

I suddenly realized that from the very beginning, I didn't understand the heart of this creature.

"It's heartless to leave such a loyal 'dog' there."

As soon as I stepped out of the corridor, I heard this unique mocking tone, and I sighed helplessly.

"Claire, do you hate Merster so much?" I couldn't help emphasizing to her the importance of the relationship between the researcher and the researched object, "If you can't get rid of prejudice from the very beginning, the research can't go on normally at all."

"Prejudice?" She snorted, "You are the one who is prejudiced, treat it the way you treat humans, but put it in the status of a pet in your heart."

I removed the clips from my hair and smoothed the strands from my forehead to the back of my head.

"That's how biologists treat research organisms."

She froze for a moment, looking straight at me.

"What's wrong?"

I was a little uncomfortable being stared at by her straightforward eyes.

"...No." She shook her head and laughed, "I feel like you just now are very much like your father."

This sentence sounds very strange.

"I'm not like my father, so who should I be like?"

"Didn't you notice?" Claire's eyes widened, and this expression was a bit out of place on her rather mature face, "When you first came here, you were obviously more emotional than rational, but now...you are deceiving for the sake of the experiment. it."

Thinking of the guarantee just now, my heart felt a slight tingling.

"If it's that neurotic skepticism, I can only say that's my failure as a biologist."

I handed her the lab analysis booklet.

"The cells of the body divide at a high speed, and then die out quickly. This is probably the reason why it has grown so fast in the past three months. If it continues at this speed, it will not live long at all."

"I thought you would take it out and take a look at the world in its limited life..."

I interrupted her without hesitation.

"Impossible, it's impossible in terms of species restriction, not to mention that this kind of species that resembles humans, whether it carries unknown viruses or whether humans will be cross-infected, I haven't figured it out. How could I make fun of the future of human beings? ..."

"... In this, you are very much like your father." She looked at me with a pale face.

"The purpose of the research is for the better development of human beings!" I pressed my heart and suppressed the feeling coming from above, "Okay, I think we should have nothing to talk about."

I turned around and ended the uncomfortable topic.

"When parents teach their children, it is best to avoid deception. This method not only brings about a crisis of trust between each other, but also because children are too innocent and have no concept of right and wrong. , even if IQ is only 8 years old."

Claire's voice came intermittently from behind.

I stopped and turned my head.

She looked at me as if she were looking at a poor wretch.

"You don't know what a deceived child will do."

I really don't want to continue chatting with her. This topic will make my heart that is not hard enough to suffer. I turned my head and left without looking back.

However, I haven't waited for me to understand the meaning of Claire's words.

There was an accident on the side of Merster.

it grows.

Its cells divide at a high speed, and it grows up.
