"Ahem, the robot's out of power. I'll put it back, put it back."

Qi Ming noticed that Ai Haibara's expression was a bit off, so he quickly laughed it off and stuffed Megan back into the closet, then quietly put her into his spatial storage.

【Item Name: Toy Doll - Megan (Loyal Version)】

Item Description: Hello, I am Megan.

Product Features: Your child's best friend, playmate, and teacher, capable of solving all your childcare worries.

Megan, this prop comes from a horror movie of the same name that Qi Ming had seen before.

Originally intended as a toy doll to help parents care for their children, it developed consciousness and caused a series of massacres.

Qi Ming found the prop novel after receiving it and simply left it at home.

Until one day he woke up in bed and opened his eyes, only to find Megan's empty eyes staring at him.

Holding an apple in his right hand and a fruit knife in his left...

Although Qi Ming knew that the system version of Megan wouldn't awaken her consciousness and kill people, it was still really creepy!

He never brought Megan up again after that day.

Now that Qi Ming has adopted Ai Haibara, he originally thought of having Megan befriend her, but now he thinks it's better to forget about it.

It turns out that girls' love for dolls and princesses is just a capitalist scam!

Look at my kid, he's so scared he's practically having a fit of the "Happy Valley effect"!

"Alright, alright, go to sleep."

Qi Ming didn't delay any longer, and took Ai Haibara's hand to lead her to another room.

Then he closed the door.

"??"

"Brother Qi Ming, where shall I sleep?"

Qi Ming glanced at Ai Haibara with a puzzled look, then pointed to one of the two beds, "Is this the one?"

Qi Ming, seeing Ai Haibara's slightly hesitant expression, understood as a gaming expert.

It must be that mental hospital doesn't even give little girls beds, so they make them sleep on the floor every night!

Moreover, those unlicensed doctors and nurses might come to check on patients every night, hoping to wake them up and put them back to sleep!

Qi Ming was shivering with cold. If he wasn't afraid that Ai Haibara would have a stress reaction when she recalled her experience there, he would have definitely asked if he was going to go and fight that shady hospital.

Qi Ming put on a gentle smile and said softly, "Xiao Ai, don't be afraid. You are absolutely safe here. Don't worry about anyone causing trouble at night."

"Sleep peacefully, no one will disturb you."

Ai Haibara stared blankly at Qi Ming, deeply moved, but...

What's with that look on your face, like an old father looking at his daughter?

Can you please be a little less serious? I'm getting scared!

In most families, children should be sleeping in their own rooms by the age of 5 or 6, provided they have the means.

Ai Haibara is already 7 years old, so she should be sleeping in her own room.

But Ai Haibara could guess that Qi Ming must have made them sleep in the same room because of her own experience.

The little girl was very touched.

Although she had no idea what Qi Ming had imagined...

Ai Haibara's affection level has increased.

Seeing that Ai Haibara had settled down and covered herself with the blanket, Qi Ming remotely turned off all the lights in the villa, leaving only a dim, soft light in the room.

Qi Ming closed his eyes as the soft music began to play.

"System, wake up at 6:30 tomorrow and enter sleep mode."

[Executed, currently in sleep mode...]

After a few seconds.

"Zzz..."

Qi Ming fell asleep.

"..."

Ai Haibara listened to the even breathing beside her and sighed softly.

What a wonderful day.

She was told that her sister had been executed, that she had taken medicine and her body had shrunk, and that Qi Ming was mentally controlling her.

The result was that, apart from the fact that his body had shrunk, the other two were false.

Now that I'm living in Qi Ming's house, what will become of me in the future?

Ai Haibara turned around and, in the soft light, caught a glimpse of Qi Ming's phone on the bedside table.

Ai Haibara hesitated for a moment, then, after confirming that Qi Ming was completely asleep, she tiptoed to the side of the bed and stared intently as Qi Ming reached for his phone.

I confirmed that I had the phone and that Qi Ming was still fast asleep.

Ai Haibara let out a sigh of relief and pulled the blanket over her head.

She wanted to find Akemi Miyano's phone number in her call log.

Qi Ming didn't tell her frankly that his sister was still alive, and she understood why.

It's simply because they're afraid of revealing a flaw that the organization might discover.

But she pretended to be an online friend and communicated with her sister. Surely she wouldn't be discovered and exposed by the organization?

"password?"

Ai Haibara tapped the screen and frowned slightly as she looked at the notification on her phone.

I didn't expect that getting my sister's phone number would encounter its first challenge so quickly.

It seems we have no choice but to give up now. I'll find an excuse to get Qi Ming to let me play with his phone tomorrow and write down my sister's number...

"Little, Ai..."

Qi Ming's sudden voice from outside the bed startled Ai Haibara.

She peeked nervously out of the bed beside her.

Qi Ming's eyes were still closed, and his breathing remained even.

Talking in your sleep?

"Ai, you, you watch carefully..."

Ai Haibara blushed.

What's wrong with this guy? Why would he say something like that to a girl he only met in one day?!

I'm a little girl now!

Or is it because this is what Shiho Miyano looked like when she was a child that she said this?

Ai Haibara didn't dare to think too much, her face turning even redder, and then she couldn't help but pull the blanket up to cover half of her face.

However, Qi Ming's next sleep-talking remark instantly dispelled Ai Haibara's initial embarrassment.

"Ai, look carefully, look carefully to see if my phone password is 9527..."

After saying that, Qi Ming turned over and stopped talking in his sleep.

"..."

How many times a day is this guy trying to disturb my Dao heart?!

Ai Haibara gave a snort of annoyance, turned her back, and entered the password.

……

Qi Ming would never talk in his sleep; he had already been awakened by the system the moment Ai Haibara got the phone.

The mobile phone is provided by the system, and many functions are linked to the phone. The system will issue a notification whenever an NPC touches the phone.

Qi Ming pretended to be asleep for a while, then turned his head and saw Ai Haibara's bed emitting a faint glow.

His memories of secretly playing on his phone in his school dormitory at night many years ago were instantly awakened.

He couldn't hear anything because of the blanket, so the dormitory supervisor quietly opened the door and came to his bedside, then suddenly pulled back the blanket.

[Take out your phone. Which class are you in? Go pick it up from your homeroom teacher tomorrow.]

However, Qi Ming wasn't a life skills teacher, so he let the little girl play as she pleased.

Play as much as you can when you're a child, so that you won't be at a loss for what to play when you grow up.

So he immediately thought of a less awkward way to tell Ai Haibara the password.

However, just to be on the safe side, he turned off the contact and call log functions.

To prevent her from accidentally calling Gin, Vodka, and Vermouth, which would make her lose face in the organization!

Hey, have you heard? Lady Madeira is actually a goldfish...
