Eugene subconsciously stretched his hands behind his waist.

In the place covered by the lower edge of the suit, there is a dagger that will never leave his body.His fingers touched the handle of the knife, but his eyes turned to Setsuna's eyes.The thin young man looks vulnerable and docile, reminiscent of a herbivorous animal that does not compete with the world.

His thumb had already pushed the lock of the leather cover, but he couldn't make the next move.

—a warmly furnished mansion, an unsuspecting audience, and, at the worst possible time, a prey that slams into his blade.

Shaw recognized the person as Eugene reacted.As if seeing the unnaturalness in Eugene's expression, the cyborg stood up, folded his formal coat with one hand, and stood between him and Setsuna.

"Hello. I heard that you are Mr. Sanqi's apprentice. We have some work that we want to entrust to you, so I took the liberty to visit." Xiao's delicate face showed an impeccable smile: "I am Xiao, this is You gold."

As he said this, his position did not move at all, and he firmly blocked the people behind him.

"Hello," the slender young man was startled, and immediately said his name: "My name is Suna (Ssuna). Is there anything I can do for you?"

Xiao quickly digested the name.It is not the same spelling as "Ksana" given by Basil, but goes back to the same origin*, and in the Paleoearth language family, both represent "instant", and "fleeting".

...not an auspicious name.

Xiao could feel the anxiety coming from Eugene behind him, and after thinking for a moment, he made his smile more obvious: "We have something we want you to repair. But you seem to be very busy today, we'll come back another day Bar."

However, Setsuna didn't seem to hear what he said, and now he narrowed his eyes and walked towards him curiously.

"Sorry, this question may be rude..." Setsuna turned his head to the side, staring straight at Xiao's face: "You are not human, are you?"

Before Xiao could make a sound, the thin young man stood on tiptoe and leaned in front of him, and then exclaimed slightly into his irises: "Really not! I have never seen a biochemical that looks so human-like." What about people..."

Xiao frowned slightly, the gentle smile on his face remained unchanged, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Seemingly aware of his recklessness, Shu Mo hastily bent over and apologized: "I'm sorry, I got too fascinated by accident..." He also discovered the violation in Xiao's posture, so he added in a remedial way: "Ah, your arm doesn't seem to be doing well. Is this what I need to fix? I can help you look right now!"

The young man's voice was so high that he thought it was too much, so he scratched his head in embarrassment, and lowered his voice to a whisper: "Really, I'm sorry, I've always been a little obsessed with the subject of biochemical humans... You, You are not a product of Sagrand, are you?"

Ruth, who was standing aside, almost wanted to cover his face.Shan Mo's heart has never been bad, but he has always been unable to speak, and his ability to read people's faces is also extremely worrying.Up to now, even she could feel Xiao's resistance to this question, but Shi Mo still looked at the other party purely, with some sparkling expectation in her eyes.

Eugene, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment.His voice was very low, and he didn't raise his eyes to look at the young man in front of him.

"...he is my lover."

After being gently reminded of his slip of the tongue, Setsuna started apologizing again in a hurry.Xiao ignored him completely, but looked back at Eugene—his human being still remembered to defend himself in this situation, which made his chest overflow with a weird warmth.The fake smile changed in a subtle way, and Xiao's expression revealed a gentleness that couldn't be faked.

He reached behind him and shook Eugene's left hand.The shallow and slender eyelashes drooped down, and Xiao asked softly: "Do you want to go back today?"

Eugene tried to smile: "I'm fine. You... If he is free, you might as well talk to him. I just happened to talk to Ruth."

Xiao looked at Eugene and nodded.

……

Eugene and Russ stayed in the long hall, while Setsu enthusiastically led Xiao to the workshop on the flank.As they walked all the way, the doors and windows in front of them were also closed along the way, as if gradually stepping from day to night.Xiao's footsteps were not fast, and after walking a certain distance, he couldn't help but look back at Eugene.

From this angle, he could still see Eugene.However, the shrunken figure of the other party made Xiao feel a subtle anxiety.

...Since they got together, the two of them have been inseparable almost every step of the way.At this moment when he should feel that the distance is too close, he still doesn't want to leave his human being very, very much.

He turned his head slowly.

This may be a natural dependence, or it may be excessive possessiveness.But beyond that, Shaw began to feel an unspeakable loss of control when he left Eugene.

Now that he is getting farther and farther away from Eugene, he seems to be getting farther and farther away from human feelings.As he stepped out step by step, the way he looked at Sha Mo's back began to look more and more like looking at a bug.

He had experienced this feeling before—in the hallucination, he witnessed Cornova gradually becoming a sea of ​​flames, but he could only feel a kind of sincere indifference.

The moment he was walking in front, he suddenly felt a glow on his back, and subconsciously looked back at Xiao.Facing the other party's flawless smile, a puzzled look flashed across the young man's face.

In the long hall at the other end, Eugene had sorted out his emotions, and was trying to bring the topic to San Qi with a decent expression and tone.

He sincerely said with emotion: "It's a pity that the teacher left suddenly, otherwise I really want to see him."

"It's not sudden," Ruth answered, sighing in a low voice: "To be honest, we are all prepared. Setsuna cried a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't be with someone who has nothing to do now. Same."

"Excuse me for being rude, is the teacher always sick?" He showed a hesitant look: "I seemed to have a heat stroke when I came last time. His appearance at that time... looked a little..."

This kind of hesitancy really aroused Ruth's uneasiness. She typed a few times to get off the topic, but Eugene didn't pick up her words.Facing the polite and candid curiosity on Eugene's face, Ruston hesitated for a moment.

After more than ten seconds of silence, the woman finally lost in this tug-of-war and twisted the skirt with both hands.When she spoke again, there was some embarrassment in her voice, but her attitude softened: "Are you foreigners? It's a bit hard to explain..."

Eugene listened to her speak slowly, his expression was very natural, but his eyes were too sharp.

……

In the workshop, Xiao took off his suit jacket indifferently, and pulled up the shirt sleeve on his left hand.His left arm was originally covered with bandages, but now he let go of it in circles, revealing a mess of wounds.Setsuna had just changed into a work apron, and when he turned around and saw this scene, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

The black-haired young man picked up a head-mounted monocular electronic mirror, put it on his right eye familiarly, and then moved closer to Xiao to have a look.

"This is difficult..." Saying that, Setsuna fiddled with the tissue on the surface of the wound with tweezers, then looked at Xiao's bare/exposed metal elbow with a frown.After finding a part of the serial number printed on it, he went to the box computer on the side and started typing.

"Are you a lover-model cyborg produced by the Alliance?" After a while, Shu Mo raised his eyes and looked at Xiao, his expression began to be a little surprised, but in an instant it seemed difficult: "We can't get the exact same repair materials here, so we can directly fill The wound is unlikely. Besides, your bones and joints won’t reach the original version in a while.” He returned to Xiao’s side, and naturally directed: “Take off your shirt, let me check you. The condition of the upper arm".

Xiao took a deep look at him, and did as he did, revealing his strong but still slender upper body.

Setsuna's expression was a little better this time, and he nodded while muttering "This is no problem".Xiao wanted to put his clothes back on quickly, but the other party saw the gauze in the middle of his chest: "That's where your main chip is, right? What's wrong?"

Xiao's expression changed slightly.

Shu Na suddenly showed a distressed expression: "This kind of injury is more serious! Come on, let me scan it..."

Before Xiao could stop him, the electronic mirror on his head instantly projected a red mesh projection on his chest.In the next second, Ji Mo's expression froze, and the question he asked was a bit unbelievable: "...Who removed your main chip?"

Xiao looked at him and raised his hand to button his shirt.

"……Myself."

He said.

——The lover model does not have a special chip for prohibition.The prohibition that binds them has been engraved on the main chip that controls all behaviors of biochemical humans from the very beginning.

Shi Mo's expression was stunned again.Such an answer is completely illogical. Without the main chip, how should this cyborg act?The only reasonable inference is that the other party has other chips.

Before obtaining Xiao's consent, the grid-shaped projection had already covered Xiao's whole body, and a red light flicked up and down quickly.Xiao squinted his eyes, got up from the workshop table where he was sitting, and strode towards Setsu.

The cyborg stretched out his hand expressionlessly to pinch the electronic mirror on the opponent's head, flicked his wrist, and roughly pulled it off.After the dull cracking sound, Xiao let go of his clenched fist, and the deformed metal mirror frame and crystal fragments fell from his palm and fell to the ground crisply.

Setsuna's light brown right eye was exposed, but he had already seen the location of another chip.

... right behind the cyborg's neck.

A huge sense of coercion leaked from Xiao's body, and it was an almost concrete killing intent.Setsuna's expression was still blank, but it wasn't because of fear.

He was recalling the scanned image in that short moment, and what Master Sang Qi had said to him.

——Although it looks similar to silicon, it is a completely different thing.

——This is a material that does not belong to our era and cannot be mined naturally.

——For things made of this material, we call it...

"...Inheritance." Setsuna finally raised his eyes to look at Xiao's eyes, his eyes were slightly out of focus, and the movement of opening his mouth seemed a little mechanical: "You are Inheritance."

Shaw didn't respond to him.

"Such a chip shouldn't be installed in such a fragile body." Shu Mo bluntly raised his hand and tapped himself on the head, as if trying to force himself to recover: "Why are you... Will you appear here with such a posture?"

Xiao still looked at him wordlessly, his gray-blue eyes seemed to belong to a merciless god.

……

After a long time, Xiao finally returned to the long hall.When they looked at Eugene, the two called each other's name at the same time.

"Eugene..."

"resemble……"

Eugene froze for a moment: "You speak first."

Xiao's gaze softened: "I've done a good check. In addition to needing to replace the arm, I also seem to need to repair the inner core."

Eugene's eyes suddenly became more worried: "Is there any problem?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that there's something wrong with the energy storage part." Xiao's voice was low and soft, even with a light and lazy ending: "...but the cost of repairs is very expensive, I'm afraid you won't want to pay."

Such words are no different from being coquettish, but Xiao's actions are astonishingly natural.Therefore, even with a heavy heart, Eugene still showed a helpless smile: "What stupid things are you talking about?"

Xiao smiled and stretched out his hand to wrap his lover between his arms.

...Standing aside, Ji watched the interaction between these two people, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

Before this, he had not seen the legacy with his own eyes.The only one who can touch things at that level is San Qi.

Sanchi would quietly introduce him to all kinds of legacy, especially the kind with mechanical characteristics.Instantly remembered their rich and terrifying abilities and traits, but never had any real feeling.Today, he finally saw this legendary existence, but the other party was put into an incompatible body.

Setsuna still doesn't know what the power of this legacy is, but he clearly understands that the energy required to drive the mechanical legacy is simply too much.Only high-purity blue crystals can support this kind of consumption for a long time.Judging from the energy that a biochemical human can store, this legacy can only exert one-thousandth of its effectiveness in a very limited time at most.

He proposed to the doll's inheritance to make him a brand new body, but the other party refused without thinking.At the end of the communication, the legacy finally agreed to install a blue crystal energy core.

He excitedly explained the possible ability increase to the inheritance, and the other party only responded with a lack of interest, as long as the problem of overheating was solved, he didn't want to achieve any other goals.

This made Setsuna very puzzled.He asked Legacy: "What do you want to do after that?"

Heritage looked in the direction of the long hall expressionlessly.

"... stay with him."

"It's enough to run for another 60 years."

The author has something to say:

*Ksana is Sanskrit for Setsuna, and Ssuna is the Japanese spelling of Ksana.

Xiao didn't collapse the character set, read the introduction of this chapter haha.
