Gurgle...
Dodo moved hesitantly over to Shen Qi, a trace of worry in his eyes.
"What's wrong, Dodo?"
A whole pile of questions, big and small, arose in Shen Qi's mind.
Dodo ought to have been the most emotionally stable and strong-willed of them. His past experiences had been the most terrible, and having his current life was like finally seeing sunlight through the clouds. He also had no particular weaknesses in his personality.
Unlike Florges, who was usually noble and elegant, gentle yet resilient inside, but gradually grew twisted when she got excited.
Shen Qi checked the Game Interface. Dodo's Mental Health Index was 89%, which was fine.
The Emotional Script completion for "The End of the Android" was 96%, increasing steadily as normal.
What could be wrong?
At that moment, what Dodo worried about was... a rift between him and Shen Qi.
When Florges spoke about her past, the Flabébé's difficulty evolving, the dejection of being unable to obtain what they sought, and their wandering journey of fruitless searching, Dodo had revealed the truth that he had been combined from two Porygon, hoping to offer comfort over their inability to evolve.
The Flabébé simply could not fulfill their wishes to grow stronger and more beautiful. Their lives on Melemele Island could be called carefree;
Unit Zero and Unit One had been in far more dangerous circumstances back then.
In terms of difficulty, Dodo thought Professor Akihabara's feat had been harder than giving Florges a transparent petal or resolving the restrictions on the Flabébé's evolution.
He had said all this partly to offer comfort as someone who understood, and partly because he felt his closeness with Shen Qi had reached the point where he should tell him the truth.
But after saying it, Dodo had still been very worried.
