Dotore from Genshin Impact is my teacher

I suspect you did it on purpose, but I have no proof.

I'd rather sleep standing up against the wall than lie on the lab bench.

Chen Xi lay on the lab table covered with a blanket. The "scholar" smiled even more. Another slice, which looked exactly like Dotole, stared intently at Chen Xi with a scalpel, as if he were looking at a pile of human parts.

Mmm, smells really good. It's quite comfortable to lie here, as long as these two guys don't look at me like I'm a lamb to the slaughter.

Forget it, out of sight, out of mind. I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

Ouch... Why do I feel a chill down my spine? I have a bad feeling.

Wait, could it be that those two are thinking of...?

Wait until I fall asleep before you kill me, okay?

It's too dangerous. We can't even beat one, let alone two.

Chen Xi: "Why are you two looking at me like that?"

Wiping the unclotted blood off the scalpel: "I'm imagining the scene after I dissect you."

WC, I'm going to die soon!!!

"He's just saying that, you can sleep peacefully."

Your words have made me even more scared. I'm afraid to sleep, I'm afraid to sleep.

"Can you two go outside? I don't like having someone watching me when I sleep."

"Okay, let's go out. You should go to sleep."

The "scholar" patted Chen Xi on the head and left with the slices.

Phew, those two dangerous individuals are finally gone, but the "scholar" is much more normal.

……

"it's him?"

"Correct."

"Hahaha, you've never cared about a test subject like this before, don't you find that ridiculous?"

"It's not funny, he's going to Liyue with me tomorrow."

"Ah."

The laboratory was filled with the smell of medicine. As a long-term sleep deprivation sufferer, Chen Xi quickly fell asleep upon smelling the medicine. The shadowless lamp did not affect Chen Xi, after all, she could fall asleep while listening to her math teacher's class in broad daylight.

The laboratory door opened quietly, without waking Chen Xi. Dotole slowly lifted the blanket, placed his hand on Chen Xi's neck, and applied slight pressure, leaving a red mark on her fair skin. Dotole released his hand, and Chen Xi unconsciously grabbed Dotole's arm and rubbed against it affectionately.

Dotole moved Chen Xi's hand away, completely lifted the remaining blanket, unbuttoned his shirt, placed the instrument on his chest to examine him, then patted his muscles, and placed the instrument on his heart to listen to the number of heartbeats... He checked everything and finally concluded that Chen Xi was very healthy, just like an ordinary human, with nothing special about him, except that he was too physically and mentally exhausted and needed to rest for a few days.

Dotorei took out the syringe, patted the veins on Chen Xi's arm until they stood up, inserted the needle, pushed the syringe, and the medicine entered the veins, flowing into the circulation along with the blood. He then fastened the buttons again and thoughtfully covered Chen Xi with the blanket.

The physical and mental fatigue has disappeared a lot.

"Please don't go. You're all I have left." Chen Xi was talking in her sleep, her hand clutching Dotole's sleeve.

“Okay, I’ll stay with you.” Dotole stood by the bed until Chen Xi let go of his hand.

……

The scholar looked at the bruises under Dotore's eyes: "Are you really saying one thing and meaning another, unable to bring yourself to do it?"

Dotore: "Hmph, you too... protect him."

The scholar turned his back and said, "Don't bother."

……

The "scholar" came to the bedside:

"Wake up, get up."

Chen Xi was still half asleep: "Scholar brother, let me sleep a little longer."

The "scholar" placed his hand on Chen Xi's head: "I've recently been researching what would happen if we replaced a person's brain with a machine."

Chen Xi instantly snapped out of it; he was very likely to do it: "I'll get up right away, scholar brother, don't scare me."

Chen Xi tried to sit up, but the "scholar" pressed her back down, preventing her from getting up: "You don't need to get up, just get some sleep, I'll stay with you."

Chen Xi closed his eyes and sighed, "I have no regrets in this life to die by your hand."

"Hmm? Your thought process seems a bit off. I just wanted to see how long you could sleep."

Chen Xi's resentment intensified as she looked at the "scholar" with a resentful expression.

"I don't want to move anymore. You figure it out yourself. Go to sleep." Chen Xi lay down and fell asleep.

The "scholar" shook his head helplessly, picked up Chen Xi, and carried her out of the laboratory and toward the carriage.

"Where are you going, sir?"

"pier."

……

码头

The huge ship was docked at the shore, and people quickly avoided the very dangerous executive officer to allow him to pass smoothly.

The girl who accidentally bumped into the officer due to the crowd apologized:

"I'm very sorry, sir."

The officer initially intended to kill the girl on the spot, but seeing that the boy in his arms had been awakened, and not wanting the boy to see his dark side, he softened his tone and said, "It's alright, you can go ahead."

"Thank you so much!" The girl bowed to the executive officer to express her gratitude, then ran onto the ship. The executive officer and the girl boarded the same ship.

It was because the boy woke up that he inadvertently saved the girl's life.

"Where are the scholars?"

"It takes two days to sail from the Eastern Kingdom's port to Liyue."

"Hmm, I've been lying down for too long, my body is a little sore, put me down."

"it is good."

The "scholar" put Chen Xi down and looked at her with a lingering sense of satisfaction.

"What? Haven't you hugged me enough?"

"Ah."

"I'll let you hug me as much as you want another day."

"You said it yourself, don't go back on your word."

"I said it myself. By the God of Contracts, Morax, I will definitely let the scholar hug me to his heart's content another day. This is our contract. Those who break their word shall be punished by the Devouring Rocks," Chen Xi said casually.

A dragon's roar echoed in their minds, followed by the appearance of a rock element symbol. The deep, resonant voice of the God of Contracts reverberated in their ears: "The contract is complete. Those who break their word shall be punished by being devoured by rock."

Zhongli said, "So that's why I received another contract. It was you."

Chen Xi didn't expect that a casual remark would be recognized by the God of Contracts: "Alright, are you satisfied now?"

The scholar was satisfied: "Well, let's go back to the cabin first. It's windy outside, and we might catch a cold."

The ship's horn roared powerfully, and the ship, like a steel steed, cut through the waves and rushed into the distance. White clouds drifted quickly across the sky, and the ship created white spray on the sea, leaving trails of white foam trailing behind it.

This magnificent ship is about to sail to Liyue. It sways gently with the waves. Its hull is large, with many small windows and a smooth prow. The cabin is not simple either, and it has everything one would expect.

……

Chen Xi was curious about how Dotole and his slices communicated: "Scholar brother, how do you communicate with each other?"

"Scholar": "Dottore issues tasks in our minds, we execute them, and we can upload parts of our memories, which they will all receive." It's basically like a computer.

Chen Xi then asked, "So how did you build it?"

The scholar paused for a few seconds and said, "You'd better not ask this question again."

"Oh."

"Is the scholar the strongest one?"

"No."
