Ark Simulator, Aren't I Without a Physical Form? Chapter 183
Acting cute definitely works; even the Upper System falls for it. With this thought in mind, Su Rui waited for the Upper System's response, her heart pounding.
A moment later, sure enough: [Don't do it again, call me "Mom" one more time.]
What's so difficult about that? Besides, the Upper System really is his mother.
Su Rui felt no guilt; a smile played on her lips as she deliberately called out in an even sweeter voice, "Mommy~"
[good].
The Upper System only gave Su Rui a subtitle, making it impossible for Su Rui to understand what she was thinking. However, Vulpisfoglia also heard Su Rui's voice, couldn't help but shiver.
Su Rui's voice is indeed very pleasant to hear, and combined with Su Rui monkey-like aura that makes people subconsciously want to get close to her, it is extremely effective.
It even caused Vulpisfoglia's heart to clench suddenly, and even pause briefly.
Vulpisfoglia couldn't help but have some rather improper thoughts. Su Rui's way of speaking was really tempting, even criminal, making one want to let him experience the wickedness of the world.
However, Vulpisfoglia did not directly express her thoughts to Su Rui. Saying it now might elicit a reaction from Su Rui, but once Su Rui materialized, the probability of Su Rui agreeing to her request would be much higher, especially when they were playing Su Rui queue together, as Su Rui was actually quite easy to talk to.
A pleasant smile involuntarily crept onto Vulpisfoglia's lips. If she weren't afraid that Su Rui would discover her unusual state, Vulpisfoglia would have even wanted to laugh out loud—though it would probably have been a rather unpleasant laugh. After all, even Vulpisfoglia herself found her thoughts somewhat perverse.
Soon, Vulpisfoglia arrived at Penguin Logistics ' garage, selected a vehicle, started it, and drove towards the outside of the Lungmen.
"Shouldn't I send a message to Texas and the others to remind them, so they don't worry that you've disappeared or encountered danger?"
Su Rui's voice rang in Vulpisfoglia's mind again. She nodded. "Then please inform Texas and the others that I've gone out to see Little Lisa. Don't mention anything about you."
"Okay, I understand."
Su Rui responded, and then, as Vulpisfoglia was driving, she noticed out of the corner of her eye a message sent by Su Rui using Vulpisfoglia's account in a corner that wouldn't obstruct her view.
It only briefly described that we were going to see Suzuran, without any further details.
Vulpisfoglia nodded, a pleasant smile creeping onto her lips. Soon, after passing the checkpoint, Vulpisfoglia drove her vehicle into the wilderness, revving the engine as she headed towards Rhodes Island. If she drove fast enough, by the time she reached Rhodes Island, Su Rui's materialization progress should be full. Vulpisfoglia was looking forward to it, so she focused her attention on driving, hoping to make the agonizing wait pass faster.
Su Rui gently turned on the car stereo and played a light and upbeat song so that Vulpisfoglia wouldn't fall asleep while driving.
Are you worried I'll be tired while driving? Don't worry, I'll be careful.
"If you don't pay attention to safety, I'll just blast heavy metal from the stereo to keep you awake," Su Rui said irritably.
"I forgot to ask how you were feeling. If you're tired, we can rest first. This isn't that urgent; you can take it one step at a time."
Vulpisfoglia nodded, a pleasant smile involuntarily curving her lips at Su Rui's concern.
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, in order to spend more time with you, Su Rui, I also pay close attention to my health. I exercise every day."
That would be best.
Volume 7, Chapter 400: Ingrid! Where is my daughter?!
After a day of driving, and with the help of the shortcuts marked by Su Rui, Vulpisfoglia and Su Rui quickly arrived at Rhodes Island.
Furthermore, the materialization progress reached its maximum after Vulpisfoglia drove the vehicle into Rhodes Island's hangar.
After parking her SUV in the garage, Vulpisfoglia didn't rush to get out. Instead, she locked the door, quietly climbed over the driver's seat, and went to the back seat.
"What are you doing?" Su Rui asked Vulpisfoglia with some confusion and curiosity, and then felt a cool temperature coming from her skin.
In other words, the System Materialization Progress is full. Su Rui understood. Looking at the Vulpisfoglia in front of him, he subconsciously wrapped his body with his nine fluffy white tails and curled up.
"First of all, I'm not against being affectionate with you, but this is a public place after all. There are so many people outside, and engineering staff are patrolling and repairing vehicles from time to time. It's really not good for the car to be shaking like this."
Vulpisfoglia just smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry, I won't force you to do those things at this time. So, hurry up and get dressed. I just didn't want others to see you, that's why I ran to the back seat."
"So that's how it is."
Su Rui nodded, and with some effort, took out a body suitable for her Nine-Tailed Fox form from the System Space, and then put it on with the help of Vulpisfoglia.
There's no way around it; while nine big tails are beautiful, they are indeed a bit inconvenient in daily life.
In particular, the nine tails are sometimes obedient and sometimes disobedient. They are quite obedient when patting people with the big tails, but when it comes to adjusting the position of the big tails to go through clothes, you will find that they are very difficult to control.
Just as she couldn't precisely control her toes, Su Rui couldn't precisely control her tail; she could only operate it in general directions.
However, Su Rui had already changed her clothes with Vulpisfoglia's help, so today the Rhodes Island operators saw Vulpisfoglia smiling as she walked down the Rhodes Island corridor, accompanied by a handsome young man with white hair and red eyes, carrying nine "big white radishes" on his back.
Su Rui looked at Vulpisfoglia, who was deliberately walking a little behind her and hugging several of her tails with both hands, and helplessly patted Vulpisfoglia's cheek with the tail that wasn't being hugged yet:
"This is a public place. How old are you? Don't you feel ashamed?"
Vulpisfoglia smiled and shook her head at Su Rui: "Of course I'm not shy. With such a lover, why should I be shy? Isn't it a happy and something to be proud of to be able to spend such a close time with you, Su Rui?"
Vulpisfoglia didn't say anything more, but when Su Rui gently patted her cheek with her fluffy tail, she reached out and hugged Su Rui's cheek again.
Then she noticed that her embrace wasn't quite enough, since Su Rui's nine tails took up a lot of space. Unless she hugged the base of the tails directly, Vulpisfoglia couldn't lift them all at once.
If you hold an extra big tail in your arms, one of the big tails will squeeze out of the Vulpisfoglia's embrace.
However, Vulpisfoglia was still very happy, after all, the envious looks from the surrounding operators made her feel pleasant.
Soon, Vulpisfoglia and Su Rui arrived at the door of the Doctor's office.
With her hands full, Vulpisfoglia held onto Su Rui's big tail and couldn't free her hands, so she could only focus her attention on Su Rui.
"At a time like this, you're still thinking about clinging to my tail?"
Su Rui smiled at Vulpisfoglia, then gently knocked on the Doctor's door. Although Su Rui could open the automatic electronic door in no time, there were other operators working with the Doctor inside, and she didn't want to scare them.
"Please come in."
Upon hearing the Doctor's voice, Su Rui used her electronic manipulation abilities to open the Doctor's door and saw Doctor standing beside Silence as his assistant for the day. She smiled and greeted Silence.
"Long time no see, Silence."
"Hello... you're Su Rui? I never imagined you'd changed like this. So what you said before was all true."
Silence looked Su Rui up and down, and when he thought of the intimate things he and Su Rui had done, his cheeks flushed slightly. His eyes darted away, but he couldn't help but look at Vulpisfoglia, who had a happy expression on her face and was hugging Su Rui's big tail and rubbing her cheek against it.
Is this Wolper also a woman close to Su Rui? How nice, to be able to hug Su Rui's fluffy tail.
Thinking this, Silence quickly looked away before Vulpisfoglia could fix her gaze on her.
Su Rui then draped her large tail over Vulpisfoglia's head, and led Vulpisfoglia, who was still clinging to her tail like a child, to the Doctor.
It felt like her and Vulpisfoglia's positions had switched; Su Rui remembered that she was the one who used to be willful.
"Doctor, I've come to see my Little Lisa. Where's my daughter? Vulpisfoglia said Little Lisa's been with you all this time."
As Su Rui spoke, he activated his Scanning Vision. Although he wanted to see Little Lisa experience the joy of reunion with his own eyes, he couldn't suppress his longing for his daughter, and Su Rui couldn't help but use his Scanning Vision to look at Rhodes Island.
Then he realized he couldn't find the Suzuran. Su Rui's expression changed, as if she had thought of something. Her smile faded, and she looked at the Doctor in front of her:
"Mom, you didn't send my Little Lisa out on a mission, did you?"
"Don't worry, I've arranged enough people and reliable teammates to ensure Lisa's safety."
The Doctor smiled at Su Rui and raised his hand to calm Su Rui down, but how could Su Rui calm down at this moment? Ignoring Vulpisfoglia clinging to her tail behind her, she slammed her hands on the Doctor's desk:
"But Lisa is still a child. She should be in school, not out on dangerous missions! No, I have to find her. Lisa just needs to go to school now!"
As Su Rui spoke, he noticed that Vulpisfoglia was still rubbing against his big tail behind him. Somewhat annoyed, he turned around and slapped her hard with his own tail, unable to resist scolding her:
"You're still touching her! Our daughter's been sent out on dangerous missions, aren't you going to show any concern? I'm getting angry, Ingrid!"
Seeing that Su Rui was angrily calling her by her name instead of her nickname, Vulpisfoglia couldn't help but look up, hug Su Rui from behind, and rub her cheek against his to comfort him:
"Don't be nervous, darling, this is normal. Other schools also combine teaching with practice. This is Terra. When I was Lisa's age, I had already started training and carrying out missions."
"This is different... Could it really be like this in every school?"
Volume 7, Chapter 401: Su Rui: I've seen through you.
Su Rui looked at Vulpisfoglia, who was holding her shoulder, with disbelief. Then she turned to look at the Doctor and found that both of them looked normal, including Silence, who, as the assistant, didn't seem to have any objections.
"But no matter what, Little Lisa is still just a child..."
Su Rui still didn't quite understand. Games were games, but when it came to his own child, he found it hard to accept.
Silence pushed up his glasses, looking at Su Rui was anxiously wagging her nine large tails, and couldn't help but smile, "Since Su Rui is so worried, why don't you go check on Suzuran? Suzuran would be happy to see her family while on a mission, wouldn't she?"
"Great idea! Let's set off right away!"
Su Rui had this idea all along, but he originally planned to bring Suzuran home directly. However, after being persuaded by Vulpisfoglia, the Doctor, and Silence, he had no choice but to give up.
Go find the Suzuran of the valley and make sure Suzuran's safe. We'll deal with the rest when we get there.
Although that's what she was thinking, Su Rui still looked at Vulpisfoglia with some resentment. "Alright, let's go. We're about to set off. We'll be back soon, Doctor."
After exchanging greetings, Su Rui reached out and pushed Vulpisfoglia's shoulder as they walked outside.
"Let's go now." At the same time, Su Rui didn't forget to complain inwardly:
"Even if all the children in Terra start developing their abilities at this age... aren't you being a bit too carefree? Suzuran lives so far away from you, aren't you worried?"
"I've been through much more dangerous situations, darling, will you worry about me too?"
Vulpisfoglia did not answer Su Rui, but instead smiled and changed the subject.
"Of course I'm worried, but weren't you already a mature adult when I met you?"
Su Rui glared at Vulpisfoglia, her tone softening slightly.
"Okay, sorry, I was too hasty just now. The teaching methods here are not quite what I expected."
Vulpisfoglia smiled, not taking Su Rui's tone to heart, and said gently:
"Don't worry, I don't mind. Let's go."
"Hmm." Su Rui nodded, but couldn't help asking again, "I just checked Suzuran's mission this time. She went to Wolumon in Leithanien with Rhodes Island operator Aye Wolumonde investigate the disappearance of Rhodes Island operators. There's definitely something wrong with that, right?"
Vulpisfoglia nodded. "There are indeed some dangers, but Little Lisa is no slouch either. Don't worry, I've taught Little Lisa some combat skills, so even if she encounters danger, Little Lisa can protect herself."
"I remember Little Lisa usually fights using a staff, right?" Su Rui, somewhat puzzled.
"But the staff can also be used to hit people, and Little Lisa can also carry a small knife for self-defense."
Vulpisfoglia smiled and explained, then returned to the Rhodes Island garage with Su Rui. Less than an hour after arriving at Rhodes Island, they headed straight for their next destination.
"Okay, the destination has been set, let's set off."
Su Rui wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Vulpisfoglia pressed her shoulder down and pushed her into the back seat.
"What? Can't I even sit in the passenger seat?"
"You stay in the back seat, otherwise I won't be able to concentrate on driving."
Vulpisfoglia gave Su Rui a cryptic look, scrutinizing her partner from head to toe, especially Su Rui's nine fluffy, soft tails.
"No, I'd rather sit in the back seat. We should wait until we find Little Lisa before considering this kind of thing, otherwise there's nothing to talk about."
Su Rui immediately understood what Vulpisfoglia was thinking, rolled her eyes at her in annoyance, and then slammed the back door shut in front of Vulpisfoglia.
"Good."
Vulpisfoglia didn't seem to mind, shrugged, sat in the driver's seat, and started the car. "Don't mind if I put on some music?"
"An empty album? Of course, no problem, as long as it's not a sleep aid."
Su Rui naturally had no objection, she simply nodded, and then watched as Vulpisfoglia fiddled with the car for a few moments, and cheerful music started playing from the stereo.
"Sora is a vibrant idol, so it's rare for her to have such hypnotic songs."
As she spoke, Vulpisfoglia started the car and drove out of Rhodes Island.
"Hmm, speaking of which, how have things been going with Lungmen and Penguin Logistics lately?"
Su Rui leaned back in the back seat, hugging her fluffy tail and rubbing her face against it. Her tail felt nice to touch, and the nine tails surrounding her made her feel very safe.
Vulpisfoglia glanced at Su Rui's current appearance in the rearview mirror, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips:
"Lungmen is still the same as always. You can often see police officers chasing speeding thugs in their vehicles, and there are occasional gang fights on the streets. Penguin Logistics is pretty much the same; we still live a life of taking on missions and solving problems."
"Sounds pretty good, but you guys are sometimes among the speeding thugs being hunted, right?"
"Those were all accidents." Vulpisfoglia ignored Su Rui's deliberate teasing and drove the vehicle towards Wolumonde.
"However, Little Lisa's grades are very good, and she's doing very well under the Doctor's guidance at Rhodes Island."
"Of course I know. I was raised by my mom, so I definitely have no problem with my knowledge."
Su Rui nodded, but after realizing this, Vulpisfoglia became somewhat worried.
Su Rui's personality is uninhibited and easily diverted from conversation; Suzuran seems very easy to fool. I hope Suzuran won't develop that kind of personality under the Doctor's guidance.
