Restoration [Interstellar]

"What's the matter?" Seeing Ludwig jumping off the table and rushing into the kitchen, Xia Xi hurriedly followed. Mao, there was hardly any change in his expression, but he still felt that Big Mao seemed very alert now.

Xia Xi followed Ludwig from the back door in the kitchen to the backyard. As soon as he went out, Xia Xi, who was a step late, saw Ludwig circling the trash can.There is a large garbage bin in the backyard of each independent villa dormitory. The garbage generated in the dormitory is sorted and put into the garbage bin in the backyard. After midnight, it is processed by the cleaning robot.

"What are you looking for?" Xia Xi hesitated, but opened the trash can.Fortunately, Elias doesn't usually stay in the dormitory, and doesn't generate too much domestic garbage, so one of the garbage is particularly special.

"Eh?" Xia Xi moved closer, sniffing the strong scent of flowers coming out of the trash can, "I've only been away for two days, did Professor Dietrich raise potted flowers?" He took out a potted flower from his pocket. Putting on the gloves, he picked up the thin, yellow-leaved, wilting plant, "Why does it look familiar?" he said to himself.

Ever since Xia Xi opened the lid of the trash can and the scent of flowers wafted out, Ludwig felt his mind was a bit empty, and everything he looked at seemed to have a hazy halo. Just as he forced himself to step back and leave here, Xia Xi Just take that plant out.

The moment he saw that plant, he felt his mind was blank, and then a large piece of gorgeous fireworks exploded vigorously in his blank brain, everywhere was colorful and starry, and then, at the end of the fireworks, he Seeing Xia Xi wearing a wide white shirt, sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at him, the hem of the shirt will be able to cover the buttocks, two slender white thighs overlapped, and he supported it with one hand body, the other hand is slowly unbuttoning the chest...

"Oh~" Ludwig rushed towards the man at the end of the fireworks, stretched out his paws and hugged him vigorously.

At the same time, Xia Xi saw Da Mao, who had been fidgeting all this time, rushing towards him, hugged the plant he picked up, and dropped it to the ground together.Da Mao meowed coquettishly, hugged the plant tightly, and rubbed it vigorously with his head and neck.

"This is..." Xia Xi murmured hesitantly, "Is this catnip?"

Half an hour later, in the bedroom, Ludwig lay down on the bed with his head drooping, his back turned to Xia Xi, looking out the window at the empty professor's dormitory community, expressionless.

"I didn't expect this kind of plant to exist on the central planet." Xia Xi picked up the catnip, found a good container to make a flower pot, replanted the catnip, and surrounded it with a protective barrier to prevent the smell from spreading, so that Da Mao went crazy again, "I don't know if it is the same plant as the catnip on the earth." Thinking, Xia Xi suddenly felt a little lost. More than 1000 years have passed, and the earth has long been deserted. It is estimated that it has become a dead plant. The planet, I don’t know how many earth creatures just disappeared.

Seeing that Ludwig was still half dead, Xia Xi smiled and hugged him, and touched his head, "Don't be shy." He pointed to the drooping catnip in the basin, "This It’s called catnip, it’s a hallucinogen for felines, most cats will go crazy when they smell it, it’s not your problem, Da Mao.”

Ludwig's eyes widened suddenly, and his ears stood upright.The daydream just now had hit him too hard, making him unable to react, and only now did he discover the problem.Hallucinogens?How is it possible, as the empire, and even the strongest orc in the universe, there is no hallucinogen in this world that can affect the royal family of Seifert. As long as you know, even the most powerful anesthetic is ineffective against the royal family of Seifert .

He stood up and approached the dying Catnip in the barrier, complex dark lights shone in his clear blue eyes.

"Xiaxi, you're back!" Elias' voice suddenly sounded from outside the house, and then he ran upstairs, "Eh?!" A scream came from upstairs, "Where is my number 1917!! Shahi!"

Xia Xi put down Ludwig and rushed out, "What's wrong?"

"Xiaxi, did you see a potted plant?" Elias asked anxiously, "I brought it back to the dormitory from the laboratory yesterday, and this morning because of staying up late, I got up a little late and left in a hurry , I helped it forget it in the study, why is it gone now?"

"Don't worry, what does this potted plant look like?" Xia Xi slowed down, trying to calm the anxious Elias, "As long as it is in this room, it will definitely be found."

"So tall." Elias gestured, "Green, erect stem, quadrangular, opposite leaves, lobes linear to linear needle-shaped, entire, pilose on both sides, with concave small glands underneath A bit, the veins are not obvious..."

Thanks to Xia Xi's plant breeding class, he understood such a professional term.The more he listened, the more he felt that what Elias said was like the catnip he just picked up from the trash can.

"Is this it?" He moved the catnip out of the bedroom under Ludwig's long gaze. "I found this in the dumpster in the backyard. Maybe it fell off the table and was picked up." Take the cleaning robot out as garbage."

"That's it!" Elias hugged the catnip into his arms and took a deep breath, "I was scared to death... If the number 1917 is really lost, I can only commit suicide and apologize." He Suddenly his tone dropped.

"What's wrong?" Xia Xi asked.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't find it. They're almost dead anyway." Elias sighed, and said with some frustration, "This is our scientific research project. But I don't know why, but the cultivation has been unsuccessful. No. 1917 is the longest-lived one in this batch, but it is dying now. Obviously, the environmental conditions are set strictly according to the ancient books left by the earth, I don’t understand why they can’t survive.” He clenched his hands He raised his fist and knocked on the table.

Xia Xi looked at the catnip in the pot and asked, "This...is this an earth plant?"

"Yes." Elias said, "The revived extinct plants. You also know that the earth has long been a dead planet, and it is still on the border. This is a scientific researcher who accidentally crossed the meteorite sea and arrived on the earth. From the retrieved fossils, we extracted the DNA, copied the plant, and found..." He paused, "In short, if you want the Federation to continue to send people to explore the earth, you must make results."

Xia Xi was a little concerned about the pause in his words, but he did not act rashly, but said: "Professor, aren't these confidential? Tell me there will be no problem?"

"It's not a secret." Elias waved his hand, "We are doing an experiment on the resurrection of plants on the earth. The whole school knows about it, and we can't hide it."

Xia Xi nodded, her eyes fell on the catnip involuntarily.He stared at the catnip for a while, and finally comforted him: "Actually, you don't need to be so pessimistic. This catnip has a strong desire to survive. It's only been a while. I think it is better than when I picked it out of the trash can. Much more energetic."

"Huh?" Elias immediately sat up and pressed on the glasses. Xia Xi knew that there was a scanner on his glasses, but this was the first time he saw Elias use the scanner on He used to use a scanner to scan the barcodes of online shopping products in the dormitory to verify whether they were genuine.

"How could it be..." After the scan, Elias stared at the catnip for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he stuffed the catnip into Xia Xi's arms, "You hold it and keep holding it. Housework first You don’t need to clean it up, your job now is to hold it. I’m going to check the information now, just take good care of it, don’t worry about me.”

Xia Xi was a little dazed, looking at the catnip in her arms, and then at the back of Elias who disappeared at the corner of the stairs, not knowing what to say.

The day passed quickly like this, Xia Xi was forced to sit in the living room holding a catnip basin, and could only read a book to pass the time.Because Ludwig didn't see Xia Xi for a long time, he came out of the room a long time ago, jumped to sit next to Xia Xi, stared at Catnip vigilantly for a while, then curled up and closed his eyes.

He wasn't sleeping, and this plant that could control the mind of the Seifert royal family made Ludwig tense up.He didn't know how many orcs catnip could affect and whether it would be addictive. If the federation used this terrible plant to make some kind of medicine and implant it into the orcs' bodies to control the orcs mentally, then the empire would really fall.

This cannot be allowed to happen.He narrowed his eyes.

Until nightfall, Elias finally came out of the study. He held Xia Xi down to prevent him from getting up from the sofa, while he squatted down in front of him, turned on the scanner on his glasses and pointed it at Catnip.

A few seconds later, he slowly raised his head and looked at Xia Xi.

"What's the matter, Professor?" Xia Xi felt a little hairy behind his eyes.

"The health value has increased." Elias said blankly.

"You mean, this catnip plant has come back to life?" Xia Xi was a little confused about what he was talking about, but said as usual, "Congratulations, professor."

"Xiaxi, where are you from?" Elias asked eagerly, "Which planet did your ancestors come from? Has your family ever formed a family with people of other races?"

"I'm from Earth, Professor." Xia Xi replied cautiously, "As for whether I'm a pure-blooded Earth person... Actually, I'm not very clear. After all, a small family like ours wouldn't think of keeping a family tree..."

"Great!" Elias hugged Xia Xi fiercely, and Ludwig stood up in shock, his back hair stood up, "The companionship of homologous creatures! Why didn't I think of this! ?Gosh Natsuki, I love you so much! You saved us all!"

"Professor?" Xia Xi ducked back.

"Xia Xi." Elias squeezed Xia Xi's hand, "Maybe you will become the first second-class citizen researcher in the entire Federation."
