void engagement [interstellar]

Edie didn't sleep well that night.

During the day, when he and His Royal Highness inspected some of the semi-finished products that were still imprisoned in the experimental base—because they had been preliminarily judged to be obviously dangerous and had to continue to be imprisoned in situ—a man who still maintained human intelligence but integrated gold The semi-finished human being with the beast gene fragment bit through the metal railing and the glass outer wall of the cage the night before, and quietly lay in ambush. When Edie passed by, he roared and rushed out.

Although Edie was not injured because Ye Xuanhe pulled her away in time, she was still a little frightened and had frequent nightmares that night.

In the dream, it was dark, the surrounding fields were empty, and only I was alone.The enemy has a human body, but has two lantern-like red eyes, emitting a faint and strange cold light.It opened its mouth wide, revealing the sharp teeth of the beast, and roared and rushed towards Edie again and again.

This time in the dream, there is no hero who can rescue him normally.Dad is not here, brother is not here, Ye Xuanhe is not here either.He knew he couldn't beat him, so he had to run, run, and run again.

But the enemy who doesn't know whether it should be called a human or a monster is obviously much stronger than him. No matter how Edie runs, he will be pressed to the ground by its paws every time, tearing, biting and devouring him, and he can't cry .

Back and forth, back and forth.

Edie also seemed to know that he was dreaming in the dream, and tried hard to wake up. After several times, he finally struggled to wake up when the enemy bit his body again.

Then he discovered that the dream was not completely a dream, and he did not get relief even if he woke up.

Although there are no monsters around me in reality, the exhaustion from being chased and the pain from being torn apart are all real.

His skin was burning, his ears were buzzing, and his body was dripping with sweat, which had soaked the bedding.

And in his head, there seemed to be thousands of steel needles stabbing constantly, and the continuous pain seemed to burst.

Have a fever again?

Although it was a little different from the feeling of being sick in the past, Edie thought of this possibility for the first time.

He called Nan Feng in a low voice, but the robot that usually came when he was called seemed to be dead, and did not respond to any calls.

He tried to get up with difficulty, trying to find the regular medical kit in the corner cabinet, but when he turned over, his limbs went limp, and he fell off the bed with a plop, and he couldn't get up after several attempts.

Ye Xuanhe, who was sleeping outside, was awakened when he heard the noise, and immediately got up and knocked on his door: "Little Edie, what happened to you?"

Ye Xuanhe's voice seemed to Edie to be near and far away, very ethereal, which gave him a faint illusion, as if he was still in that endless dream of being chased and hadn't woken up yet.

His hair was all soaked with sweat, and strands of it stuck to his forehead and cheeks in messy strands. Sweat slid down the corners of his brows and flowed into his eyes, forcing him to squint.

Edie felt that his current appearance must be extremely ugly.

Sitting on the carpet, he lowered his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead and face with the sleeve of his pajamas. After panting for a while, he finally had the strength to speak loudly: "...I'm fine."

This statement has no credibility at all.Now his ears are ringing and his eyes are dazed, he is in a trance, he doesn't know how heavy the sound he landed on the ground, nor how hoarse his voice is.

"I'm going in." Ye Xuan was in a hurry, and slammed into the door after saying that.The wooden bedroom door slammed open, bounced off the wall, and slammed again.

Before Edie could refuse, Ye Xuanhe had strode up to him. Seeing his expression, she was startled. She knelt down and stroked his face and forehead with both hands, and asked anxiously, "Why are you uncomfortable?" Do not call anyone!"

"I called Nanfeng...he didn't come out." Edie still didn't forget to defend herself in a daze, "I went to get the medicine, but somehow I fell."

Ye Xuanhe felt distressed and anxious at the same time, and hugged him tightly: "You are too dependent on Nanfeng. You are almost burning now, do you know that? Silly boy." The communicator on the wrist, "Little Edie has a fever, come over to my room to see what's going on."

On the other end of the communicator was the army doctor of the Third Legion, a beta, with a very calm temperament and a serious look.After receiving the communication, I carefully asked about Edie's symptoms.Normally, Ye Xuanhe would appreciate it, but now that he can't wait to see him, I just think he's being long-winded.

"Is the estrus period coming?" Hearing Ye Xuanhe's description, the doctor, who was a little sleepy, muttered.

Ye Xuanhe finally couldn't help shouting angrily: "If he is in heat, I won't know? Will I call you? Come here immediately! He will be punished by military law if he is late!"

The military doctor was sober, he was completely awake, and hurried over with his usual medicine kit.

"Don't be so loud. It hurts my ears." Edie was carried to the bed by Ye Xuanhe, and complained softly in his arms.For some reason, although he was still limp and weak, the pain that was screaming all over his body miraculously settled down, and his consciousness gradually recovered, "I don't feel so uncomfortable anymore, it's fine, just take some medicine and you'll be fine."

"Listen to me, boy, ask the doctor to examine you carefully." Ye Xuanhe really wanted to seriously criticize him for taking medicine indiscriminately without seeing a doctor, but since he was still sick, he endured it and just asked, "Do you take medicine casually at home?"

"Of course I didn't just take it casually." Edie was still weak, but showed a little smug expression, "It's just a fever. I don't need to see a doctor and I know what medicine to take. And I have special painkillers from my father. Dad Take one when you say you are too uncomfortable to bear, and it will work for any disease."

Ye Xuanhe glanced at him, thinking that he was a fairy tale, but she didn't refute it, but felt that she would pay more attention to him in the future.It is said that a long illness makes a doctor, but his frail little fiancé seems to be developing in an unscientific direction.

The intimidated military doctor soon appeared at the door of the room, sneaking a peek inside first, seeing that both of them were sitting on the bed in perfect clothes, and then went in.

Ye Xuanhe gave way to the doctor for an examination, while she sat aside and watched.

Doctor A tremblingly took Edie's temperature, took a blood test, and did a full-body scan, measuring various values. Finally, he looked at Ye Xuanhe with a faint "Are you kidding me?" expression.

Except for some overactive brain cells, some long-term weakness of the body, and a little low-grade fever, other values ​​show that everything is normal.

Most people can handle that low-grade fever by themselves.The doctor looked at Eddie's frail little body, and with one last stroke of the pen, prescribed him a fever-reducing medicine.

Ye Xuanhe still felt that something was wrong.The Edie he saw the moment he knocked in the door was nothing like normal.

"I said it was just a common fever, you see. I also have this medicine. It doesn't hurt very much now, and I don't even need my father's special painkillers." Edie said.

"What specific medicine?" Mr. Military Doctor became a little interested.

Following Edie's prompt, Ye Xuanhe brought him the small medical kit in the cabinet.Edie opened the bag, took out a medicine bottle, and showed it to the doctor as precious as a treasure.

No matter how you look at it, you feel that it is just an ordinary candy, and it still tastes like watermelon.These aristocratic kids really know how to play, I just can't understand them. Thinking about it, Doctor Beta took his medicine box, silently said goodbye and went back to sleep.

Edie's quilt was damp with sweat, and he couldn't sleep for a while, so Ye Xuanhe told him to go to his room.After experiencing those nightmares, Edie didn't want to sleep alone. Although she was very shy, she changed into dry pajamas and went to lie on the bed, pulling Ye Xuanhe's sleeves and slowly falling asleep.

Half asleep and half awake, Ye Xuanhe stretched out a hand, took him into his arms, and gently touched his cheek.

At dawn, Edie's low-grade fever subsided, and she looked a little like she was really normal, but she was still weak all over.Ye Xuanhe told him to rest at the station, and specially called the only omega doctor in the Ninth Legion to take care of him, while he went out to deal with the residents of Snow who had been transformed into monsters.

This time the doctor is a gossip kid.Not only did he know Edie, he knew his relationship with Lieutenant General Ling Si, he even remembered the first time Edie was marked by His Royal Highness in Amber Port.

When mentioning that incident, Edie still couldn't help but blush a little, and was thinking of interrupting her, when suddenly her eyes went dark, and she fell down on the coffee table with a bang.

Immediately afterwards, the continuous pain came fiercely, which caught him completely by surprise.

"I hurt... Nanfeng, Nanfeng..." Edie rolled on the sofa holding his head in pain, instinctively calling for the universal robot that had been with him since he was a child.

But there is only a cold mechanical voice in my ears: "The system is being upgraded, please wait..."

Dr. Ga was also panicked by this sudden change, hurriedly took out various intelligent treatment instruments and used them on him one by one.

The trauma caused by knocking on the coffee table just stopped bleeding and healed quickly. Edie was still holding her head, in extreme pain, without any sign of improvement.

In the end, the doctor had nothing to do. As soon as he put the instrument away, he turned around and ran outside: "Hold on, I'll find someone right away!"

Edie raised her head and wanted to call him, but found that all the white and dazzling lights flashed in front of her eyes.

He couldn't see anything.
