Chapter 163 Baby Robot 6
Chapter 163 Baby Robot 6
Two days before the banquet, Hurt reduced his travel and stayed in his room almost all day.
He has never even met the third prince Addison.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Song Xun always feels that Hurt is a little too tense, because when he plays games at night, he always hears the sound of someone turning over inside.
As Hurt's personal baby robot, Song Xun felt that he had an obligation to comfort him.
So at night, he pulled Hurt, who couldn't sleep, and watched one of the most popular cartoons in the world.
It tells the story of three brothers who get lost with their mother, go on adventures alone, and finally reunite as a family.
Children should do childish things. Don't worry about things all day long and end up making yourself depressed.
Song Xun thought it was quite nice, but Hutt refused to watch it.
Staring at Song Xun with disdain: "Childish."
How could a seven-year-old kid like him have the right to say the word childish? It really doesn't make sense.
Song Xun refused to compromise and held Hutt tightly, refusing to let him leave.
"I want to watch it, okay? Just think of it as accompanying me."
Hurt accepted this and sat down again with his chin raised proudly.
Song Xun was still not satisfied after watching the first episode and clicked on the next one, advising: "You see, even though the three Jack brothers were lost from their mother, they still remained optimistic and cheerful. We should learn from them and learn from their mentality."
After waiting for no response for a long time, Song Xun turned his head and felt a weight on his arm. The child had fallen asleep leaning against him.
One hand was still firmly grasping his cuff.
See, cartoons are really useful.
Song Xun gently pulled Hutt's hand away and carried him to bed.
After covering himself with the quilt, he stood up and prepared to leave, when he felt a tugging sensation at the hem of his clothes again.
Glance down.
While Hurt was sleeping, a hand suddenly reached out from under the quilt and tightly grasped the hem of his clothes.
What's wrong? Do you really need to hold on to something when you sleep?
Song Xun complained, hooked one foot on the chair and pulled it over, sat down next to the bed, and continued to watch the remaining half of the cartoon.
I successfully finished watching the entire series by dawn.
He stood up and stretched, then dropped his eyes and found that Hurt was awake.
She stared at him with her beautiful sky-blue eyes and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It's okay." Song Xun was not very willing to admit that he had finished watching the cartoons marked as suitable for children aged three to ten.
Hutt glanced at the ending display on the void screen that had not yet been retracted, and did not expose the robot that had learned to lie.
Today is the day when the banquet begins.
In the afternoon, the invited dukes and nobles had already gone to the palace one after another.
Hutt changed into a custom-made dress early in the morning.
Putting on a small vest and a small suit, he looks handsome like a little gentleman.
Song Xun's mind was filled with cuteness, and he couldn't help but stroke it.
The hair that had just been trimmed became frizzy after being rubbed by him.
Hutt stared at Songxun coldly: "Hasn't anyone taught you not to be disrespectful to your employer?"
Song Xun didn't take it seriously. He raised his hand and smoothed his hair again.
Hutt forgave the crime and said, "Your clothes are on the armchair, go and change them."
Song Xun was surprised: "Should I change too?"
"You are mine. If you dress too poorly, it will only bring shame to me."
In order to maintain Hurt's face, what else can he do? Just change it.
The clothing in this world tends to be gorgeous and gaudy.
Song Xun walked out of the dressing room and looked down at the delicate dark floral patterns on her clothes.
Some hesitation: "Isn't it too formal?"
The clothes fit perfectly, and I wondered when Hurt had prepared them.
But Song Xun rarely dressed so formally, and he felt uncomfortable all over.
"very nice."
Hutt stared at the man in front of him for a long time, thinking that the person who made Arnold must have put a lot of thought into it.
Arnold has shallow facial features and smooth and even bone structure, which makes him look always with a subtle gentleness.
It is completely different from the monotonous aesthetic of robots.
If it wasn't made clear, no one would realize that he was just a robot, but would think he was some rare descendant of the nobility.
"time to go."
Hutt looked away.
In the main hall located in the center of the palace, all the invited guests were present.
The air was filled with the sweet scent of perfume, and the lights reflected by the tassels were bright and dazzling.
Song Xun followed Hutt, passed the ladies' wide skirts, and came to Isabel's position.
Isabel waved at Hurt: "You sit with Yates. I asked someone to prepare your favorite sweet shrimp for you."
Yates's seat was next to the Queen, standing on a high step, and even Mallon had to sit below.
This shows the Queen's favor for Hutt.
Some people began to praise Isabel for this move.
Undoubtedly, treating the descendants of sacrificed heroes well is an act of kindness and benevolence.
It can also bring comfort to the soldiers on the border.
What the Koser Empire needs is a benevolent monarch.
Song Xun followed Hutt, stepped onto the high steps, and stood behind Hutt's seat.
From this angle you can observe everyone's actions.
Yates welcomed Hurt's arrival and poured him a glass of water personally.
Mullen, who was standing below, had a look of disdain on his face. Sitting next to him was Beecher. The two of them whispered something and suddenly started laughing.
Song Xun frowned, feeling that the two men had bad intentions and he didn't know what they were planning.
The dinner started with a dance party. Amid the melodious music, Isabel and her husband came down the stage and started the first dance.
It completely opened up the atmosphere.
Crazy men and women twisting their bodies on the dance floor, passionate music, gorgeous lights.
The air was filled with an intoxicating scent.
After the ball, everyone went into the side hall and sat at a long table that was hundreds of meters long to have dinner with the queen.
As the end was approaching, someone made a suggestion.
"I heard that Your Majesty has just acquired a top-grade Yunhu Yanluo. Why don't you let us see it?"
The Cloud Hu Yan Luo is a masterpiece among flowers. It has very demanding growing environments and is not easily found, let alone of top quality.
At once, more and more people agreed, and they all wanted to take a look at what this top-quality Yunhu Yanluo looked like.
Isabel readily agreed and led everyone along the green lake towards the green plantation.
It was completely dark outside and the street lights were dim.
Song Xun followed closely behind Hurt, feeling a sense of uneasiness and anxiety in his heart.
So I followed him even more closely.
Maren, who was originally beside Isabel, suddenly turned around and moved closer to him.
"Why are you, a robot, dressed so well? Could it be that Hurt really treats you as a human being?"
Song Xun really didn't want to get entangled with Ma Lun, so he quickened his pace.
"Stop, why are you walking so fast? I think you just don't take me seriously." Ma Lun grabbed him and threatened: "Do you really think I won't punish you?"
Being dragged like this, Song Xun was completely separated from Hurt, but his attention was always on Hurt.
Therefore, he was the first person to discover the incident.
The sound of someone falling into the water was clearly heard among the crowd.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the person who fell into the water was Hutt, the son of the late Marshal Surrey, who was favored by the Queen and sat at the top today.
Beecher on the shore had just withdrawn his hand, with a look of smug joy on his face as if his prank had been successful.
Princess Dorothy almost fainted and shouted angrily, "Beecher, what have you done!"
Beecher did not repent, and looked at Hurt struggling in the water with a smug look: "I was just playing with him for a while, but who knew he lost his balance and fell down."
Dorothy glared at her son and accused Isabel.
"Sister, it was just a playful act of children. Beecher just made a mistake."
Isabel's face was as gloomy as water. "He is really naughty. Take Beecher away. Don't let him out without my order."
Song Xun was so anxious that he was dying. Shouldn't the most important thing now be to save people? There was no point in punishing the criminals.
Swimming is not a popular sport in the Koser Empire. The nobles consider going into the water as impolite, and the common people also follow suit and think that not many people can swim.
Song Xun didn't care about anything else. He pushed away Ma Lun who was holding him, squeezed into the crowd on the shore who were only concerned with screaming, and jumped into the water.
At this time, Hurt's head had been submerged in the lake and he was struggling to stay afloat.
Song Xun stretched out his arms across the current and pulled him into his arms.
In panic, Hutt tightly grasped Song Xun's waist with both hands and buried his face in his chest.
Afraid that he would struggle due to nervousness, Song Xun leaned close to Hutt's ear and whispered soothingly.
"It's okay, relax."
Song Xun's swimming ability cannot be said to be good. The biggest difficulty in saving people in the water lies with the drowning person. The more he struggles and panics, the more it affects the actions of the rescuers, and the more difficult it becomes.
Fortunately, Hutt was very well behaved. He just put his cold face in his arms and didn't move.
Song Xun quickly brought him to shore.
Hutt's face was pale and he kept choking and coughing.
Song Xun was held tightly in his hands, not wanting to leave, and just patting his back gently.
At this time, the water attendant who was found finally arrived.
Isabel breathed a sigh of relief and said to Song Xun: "You did a good job. Take Hutt back to the room to rest."
She then ordered the attendant: "Why don't you call the doctor over?"
Song Xun now feels that Isabel does not really like Hurt as much as she appears to, otherwise her first reaction would not be to pursue Beecher, but to care about Hurt's safety.
He picked up Hutt from the ground and took him away from the crowd, walking towards the room.
The path was quiet and dim at night, and Song Xun could feel Hutt in his arms gradually relaxing.
So he asked, "Why did you let yourself fall into the water?"
The person in his arms tensed for a moment.
Song Xun has been keeping an eye on Hurt, so he naturally wouldn't miss any details.
Beecher did push Hurt, but he saw with his own eyes that Hurt quickly stabilized his body, and he should not have fallen into the lake half a meter away.
Hutt looked up silently: "Arnold, you are just a robot."
The expression on his face was calm, and he didn't look like he had just fallen into the water and was frightened.
This is not the reaction of a seven year old.
Song Xun knew that he didn't want to say it.
Since it's a robot, it doesn't need to know too much.
He stopped asking questions, but the mystery in his heart kept growing bigger and bigger, and he was in a fog.
Song Xun brought Hutt back to the room and prepared clean clothes for him to change into.
But bad things still happened.
Hurt was ill.
Song Xun was standing by the bed and could feel the warmth before he even put his hand close to the bed.
My forehead felt hot.
If it keeps burning, my head will be burned out.
Song Xun took some cold water, soaked a towel in the water and applied it to his forehead.
In his sleep, Het's little brows were tightly furrowed, the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, and he looked very aggrieved.
There was a fragility that was not usual.
Song Xun poked his cheek and said, "You deserve it."
The medical officer Isabel ordered was late in arriving, so he stood up and prepared to go over to urge him.
But a small hand grabbed my fingers and wouldn't let go.
Hutt's tightly pursed lips slightly opened, and he muttered a few words. Song Xun lowered his head and heard the pitiful voice of the child.
"Don't... don't go. Don't... leave me..."
"do not go……"
Song Xun said in a gentle voice: "No, I'll be back soon."
I don't know if he heard it or not, but Hutt still didn't let go of his hand, and his knuckles turned white.
Song Xun sighed and could only force it open.
"Don't go..." Hutt frowned and dropped two golden beans in grievance.
Why is he so clingy when he is sick? Song Xun wiped the tears from his eyes and thought that if Hurt still remembered his tears tomorrow, he would not destroy the evidence given his personality.
"I'll be back soon, just be good." Song Xun coaxed softly, and without further delay, he went out and rushed towards the clinic.
The palace servants had all gathered in the banquet hall to clean up, and not a single person was seen on the road.
Song Xun was not familiar with the routes in the palace and had no one to ask, so he could only grope around. After finally hearing some human voices, he hurried over to ask for directions.
As the distance got closer, things started to go wrong.
This voice... sounds a little familiar.
It's Isabel.
Song Xun suddenly stopped and hid himself behind the lush green plants.
In the deserted palace corridor, Isabel's face was filled with anger: "That idiot Beecher ruined everything I did."
The man, who was covered in a black cape and whose face could not be seen, said, "Your Majesty, please find another opportunity."
"I wish it was as simple as you said. Heart getting into trouble repeatedly in the palace will only arouse suspicion."
"Tell those people to retreat."
These two short sentences contain a huge storm.
Song Xun felt a chill all over his body in an instant.
——Isabel wants to attack Hurt.
But why? Hutt is just a child, worthy of the careful planning of Her Majesty the Queen.
The conversation between the two people under the palace continued, and the man's voice also had a familiar feeling.
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Hutt won't be able to achieve anything significant. In my opinion, he won't pose any threat to you."
Isabel did not take it lightly: "Edgeworth, don't forget what Gibbon said."
"Yes." The man nodded quickly.
"Keep an eye on him," Isabel said viciously, "It would be best if he stays like this."
The two entered the hall together while talking.
Song Xun took the opportunity to leave, his mind in a daze.
Gibberne did not recognize the two names that Isabel mentioned, but the name Edgeworth had appeared in Hutt's mouth before.
That was the housekeeper's name.
The mystery that had been lingering around for a long time finally cracked a crack and revealed a corner of the inside.
All of Hurt's odd behavior had an explanation.
He had noticed everything long ago. His sudden change of temperament was a talisman to confuse the outside world, and he fell into the water to save his life.
The only close person left wanted to kill him.
In the past, Song Xun always believed that the changes in the world were caused by Hurt, but at this moment, he finally understood who the problem was.
Isabel, she is the root cause of the chaos in this world.
What about the Surreys, is it really that simple that they died?
The more Song Xun thought about it, the heavier his heart became.
