When the troops did not issue tasks, Ellis would come to Xi Tian's home.

The apartment is a standard one bedroom and one living room, with a small balcony and a separate bathroom that can only stand and shower.

The furnishings in the room are very simple, with a carpet in the middle of the living room, a soft brown sofa on it, and a low coffee table in front of the sofa.

In the bedroom, facing the door is a large bed with a desk and a chair beside the bed.

Because of Alice's arrival, the single room seemed to be crowded.

Xi Tian's home can't be called chaotic, but there are cardboard boxes scattered everywhere.The balconies are filled to the left and right, leaving only a window in the middle to let in light.

Xi Tian had no choice but to rearrange these messy cardboard boxes.Alice wanted to help, but just as he picked up the box at his feet, he found that it was extremely heavy, and Xi Tian put down the box in his hand with a nervous expression and hurried over, saying, "Go and hold that, and give this to me. "

At first he thought these things were sundries and didn't pay attention to them, but Xi Tian's attitude made him curious about what was inside.

He lightly weighed the box in his hand, it was rattling and heavy.

"What's in those boxes?"

Xi Tian put it in the backlit corner by the balcony, and heard Ellis ask.

Xi Tian found a folding knife and opened a package at hand. Ellis leaned over and saw paper books stacked inside.

Ellis gestured to the height of the stack to the ceiling, "Are these?"

Xi Tian nodded.

Simply unbelievable!

In the modern age where text has been digitized for many years, many books can be viewed through a terminal connected to a smart brain. Even very conservative government offices have established a paperless environment early.Printed products that do not have music, do not automatically change pictures, and display a single content are no longer popular with ordinary families because of their high prices. After all, buying a certain number of books is not as good as buying an ink screen that can be used repeatedly for several years monitor.Except for those who have a soft spot for paper prints, it is rare to see so many books.Even Ellis himself only has a classic ink screen reader, and it is said that the display method of text content is comparable to that of paper.But it has nothing to do with him, he doesn't even remember how long his reader sat on the bookshelf.

Xi Tian answered the call and opened the door to pick up the takeaway.

Taking advantage of this moment, Ellis leaned closer to read the name on the spine of the book carefully.

There are "Cognition and Behavior", "The Evolution of Desire", as well as the famous philosophical work "Utopia", Floyd's "XXX", and several foreign languages ​​that he does not know at all.

Xi Tian came back with the takeaway, "What are you looking at?" He opened the packaging bag, took out a copy and handed it to Alice, "It's too late for you."

"A lot of books, some of which I have never heard of."

"I've been keeping an eye on online bookstores. Last week was the Helmsman's Day. There was a [-]% discount on the website, and there were random free orders.

As soon as my brain got hot, I emptied all the books in the shopping cart and exchanged those three boxes. Xi Tian showed a weird smile, "For them, I really can't even afford to eat. "

Ellis only thought he was joking, but didn't take it seriously, "I don't know what was in the box I carried in the first place. It didn't seem like a book. It was heavy, like some kind of machine."

Xi Tian put down the things in his hands, and with a smile on his face, he pulled Ellis directly to the balcony. In front of the box, before the chopsticks in Alice's hand could be put down,

Xi Tian showed off in his tone, pointing to the boxy machine inside, "I entrusted a purchasing agent to find it from the earth. Paper books are very popular on the earth, and there are many small printers for home use. I checked this one. It took me a long time to buy the materials. Although Worm Planet and Earth are sister planets, home terminals don’t support printers at all, so I had to buy their personal computers again.”

"..." Ellis didn't know how to start a conversation, but he still praised sincerely: "It's amazing!".

Well, now he finally knows where Xi Tian, ​​who is not picky about his clothes and diet, spends his money.

The home terminal was placed in the bedroom. To facilitate discussions, Xi Tian asked Alice to sit on the bed while he sat on the chair in front of the desk.He used skilled shortcut gestures to operate the home terminal to switch pages, while asking for his opinion in a consultative tone.

Home terminals are similar to personal computers on the earth. They are more powerful than personal wrist terminals and are only the size of an adult's palm.Compared with the exquisite projection range of personal terminals, the family can have a larger projection area, clearer images, and higher color saturation.But because of its sophisticated internal structure, it is also more fragile.Therefore, it is very popular in ordinary families.

Xi Tian sat on a chair with a strange shape, quickly using gestures with both hands, and the brilliant light and shadow projected by the terminal seemed to become an embellishment around him.

Such a male son is actually going to be his partner.

Alice wondered.

They sat in the same position a few days ago, and Xi Tian pointed to the dazzling array of ring projections spreading in the air, and asked him which one he liked better.

Now, he is wearing the ring on his left hand, the surface is white and smooth, only the patterns of unknown plants are carved horizontally.Inside the ring, their initials are co-written.

The engagement of adult males and females has no legal effect, but they still signed an engagement agreement, the content of which seems a bit naive, for example: during the engagement period, both parties cannot marry someone other than the contract.

However, they really did a notarization at the notary office. The surprised and envious expression of the staff member, Ellis still feels sweet when he thinks about it.

While Alice was wandering, Xi Tian had already settled on the house while talking to himself.

"The area is definitely the best place I am familiar with. The transportation from the city center is convenient enough, but it can't be in the business circle, and it must be far away from the school and hospital."

The 2D floor plan of the new district was unfolded in the air, and the bright yellow dots represented the houses that could be purchased.With a flick of his finger, Xi Tian turned off the middle part.

"Need to be closer to his troops and not waste too much time on the road every day."

Blacked out a large area on the left hand side.

"I haven't considered the size of the apartment yet. I prefer double-storey, with plenty of sunlight and a garden. It's better to be quiet."

Filter by condition, sequentially turned off many yellow dots.

Finally, he draws a circle in the area where the remaining yellow dots are most concentrated.

Alice came back to his senses: what happened?The house has been settled, and the surrounding environment is very good.

He was used to Xi Tian's fast thinking speed, except that Xi Tian deliberately stopped to ask him.In fact, Xi Tian made the decision by himself.

Ellis didn't have to worry about anything, and he could focus more on the male.

If the female son Xi Tian chose was not him, would the male son still do these actions?

Alice was a little surprised by the sudden question, and he tried to apply what happened these days to another unknown female.

Finally came to a conclusion: "Yes, he will".

No matter who he chooses, Xiongzi will give these pre-marital preparations to his partner.

Not because Ellis is special, just because Yuko wants to.

Alice has a snack.

Soon, he adjusted himself again.

Now, this male son is his.
