The Last Human In The Empire - Chapter 3
Soon the test was over, the instrument automatically opened, and He Xile’s restraints disappeared.
With his arms propped up, he slowly sat up from the instrument. The tall doctor who was standing on the side strode to the instrument in a few long strides, and directly picked He Xile up, and gently put him on the ground.
This series of actions completed in one go.
He Xile was still a little dizzy, and didn’t react at all. By the time he realized the position, his feet were already firmly on the ground.
The doctor squatted down in front of him and softly asked, “Are you feeling any discomfort?”
He Xile: “…No.”
His face flushed in embarrassment, and said, “Thank you, thank you.” and added in a low voice. “Actually, I can get down by myself.”
The non-human beings in this world were all very tall, so they made all the objects according to their models, so it’s really inconvenient for He Xile. For example, when He Xile was lying on the medical platform just now, it only took up one-third of the place, which made him even smaller. The platform was also a bit high from the ground, but he felt that he didn’t need someone to hug him to get down.
The doctor paused upon hearing this.
“It’s okay, don’t be polite to me. I am happy to help you.” A small smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said gently.
Captain Xing’s sharp eyes swept over the scene in front of him. He tilted his head and whispered to his subordinates: “Go and Print the data.”
Subordinate: “Yes.”
After the person left, Captain Xing stepped forward, “Dr. Liang Please.” Then he said to He Xile: “Next we have to go to the Information Management Office to enter your basic information and get you the status of a legal citizenship”
He Xile was happy to hear this and his eyes bent in a smile, “Okay.”
Since there was an entry of information to make him a legal citizen of this world, it meant that the result was not as bad as he thought, and he might not have to stay in the lab.
That’s great!
“I’ll help you out.” said the doctor.
“No, it’s better for me to hold him up.”
Captain Xing once again stretched out his strong arm.
His gaze locked with the doctor’s, with a hint of wariness in his sight.
Realizing something, Dr. Liang’s two ears on top of his head slowly leaned back as he stood up and shrugged helplessly: “Alright then. It seems that being the captain of the escort team still has some privileges.”
“Dr. Liang is joking, it’s just a matter of duty.”
He Xile, who was over the moon for not going to stay in the lab didn’t pay attention to the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two non-human beings.
Since he had rested for a while when testing his body, he felt that his body strength was now much stronger than before.
He politely declined the captain’s arm and walked out slowly.
It was not known if it was his illusion or what. But after the test, the surrounding people became less guarded against him, and they all looked at him with a little pity.
Even most of the heavily armed escorts have now withdrawn, leaving only a few lefts to maintain order. It should be to prevent too many citizens from hearing that there are “humans” in this hospital and rushing to watch.
“Captain, here is the report.”
The guards stood in front of the captain, saluted, and presented the report with both hands.
The captain took it.
Um?
The test results came out so soon?
Standing on the side, He Xile was curious to know what was written on it, but Captain Xing was taller and holding the list, he couldn’t see it at all. He couldn’t help but tiptoed, but the embarrassing thing was that even on tiptoe, he could only see the back of the report.
He was obviously 1.78 meters tall, which is considered a male height on earth. How did he become a dwarf when he got here?
Damn it!
He felt depressed.
In fact, Captain Xing, who was holding the report in his hand, had long noticed the state of the small human beside him.
The corners of his mouth couldn’t help curling up, and the tip of his tail waved.
He Xile was the owner of this report. Even though he has a special status, he still has the right to know.
According to the rules, after detecting He Xile’s intention, Captain Xing should immediately hand over the report to the other party, and cooperate with humans to explain from the side. But his tiptoe, depressed and unwilling expression after not seeing the content of the report sheet greatly pleased Captain Xing, and he couldn’t help but have a bad taste.
He deliberately pretended not to see it, and stared straight at the report. Even though his eyes were glued to the report card, he actually didn’t read a single word. His whole body and mind were in the human.
What would this human do next?
“…Captain.”
He Xile couldn’t help shouting, but Captain Xing seemed to be fascinated by it and didn’t hear it. He Xile had no choice but to reach out and shake Captain Xing’s clothes lightly. “This report sheet, can I have a look at this?”
“Oh, of course.”
On the surface, the captain looked calm, but the tail behind him almost swung to the top.
woo woo woo.
Human beings are so cute –
The force of pulling the hem of clothes is so light! And who can resist the cute acts from humans?
Nobody!
Nobody!!!
He handed out the report card with a kind face.
He Xile couldn’t wait to take over the report, which was slightly bigger than A4 paper.
The instrument on his wrist automatically appeared a transparent light screen, showing the translated content of the report.
Only to see the head of the report card, clearly marked that he was from—the blue planet.
And was taken aback.
The blue planet, isn’t this another name for the earth?
He couldn’t help raising his head, pointed to the column of the blue planet, and looked at Captain Xing: “This is?”
“Huh? What’s wrong?”
Captain Xing explained. “Just twelve years ago, we discovered this blue planet in the galaxy. Apparently, the planet experienced a huge disaster, human beings, animals and plants were basically extinct, and became a dead star. Some of the remains we’ve dug up from this show a description of the planet. I seem to remember that there were also names like ‘Earth’ and ‘Blue Planet’, but everyone felt that ‘Blue Planet’ sounds the best, so we settled on that name to describe your human planet.”
He Xile stared in surprise.
Could it be that the world he had traveled to wasn’t an overhead world!
Captain Xing frowned: “Isn’t this the name of your planet?”
“…It is indeed the name of our planet, but we prefer to call it Earth.”
“Name?”
“He Xile.”
“Age”
“Nineteen years old.”
He Xile said his age when he died.
While entering the data, the staff murmured: “I told you he wasn’t an adult!”
“He looks so small and so young; how could he be an adult?”
“That’s right.”
“But human beings are really amazing, even the underage children look exactly the same as adults…”
“It’s understandable, they don’t have second characteristics.”
The staff member who registered basic information for He Xile was a woman with rabbit ears. There were still four or five idle non-human beings around, looking at He Xile with great interest.
——This is the only human being in the world!
In the past, if they wanted to see this human being, they had to buy a ticket to the museum and take a look inside through the display cabinet. Now not only can they see this human being for free, but it’s still alive!
The kind that could breathe and talk!
How strange!
He Xile couldn’t help but say: “Actually, on our earth, I mean the Blue Planet, eighteen years old is already an adult.” Although he didn’t finish high school to cure his illness, no one would think of him as an adult, just a child…but he was already nineteen.
Starting over again, He Xile also wants to be an adult.
Everyone: “!!!”
What?
Already an adult?
But this human named He Xile looks so small!!!
The staff couldn’t help popularizing science: “The average lifespan of people on our planet is about 500 years. Human life is longer, and it takes a certain amount of time to establish the three views. Most people will settle down, so it takes 30 years to be considered an adult, and as you can see, we all have second characteristics.”
She said, stroking her long ears and smiling, “Before adulthood, children survive with second characteristics. And after coming of age, only they become what they are today. It is very different from your planet.”
Captain Xing found the picture next to him and showed it to He Xile: “This is the cub of our clan.”
On the picture, a litter of what looked like small wolf cubs were sleeping on all fours in one place. They were all fluffy and had a pair of small, fleshy wings on their backs, it looked round like a ball and very cute.
He Xile: “Wow.”
So, the cubs in this world have such a cute and fluffy appearance. Only when they grew up did they become similar to humans!!
Oh my God! What a wonderful world this is!
The surrounding people asked some questions, and said something from their planet, likewise they chatted for a while.
From this, He Xile learned a lot of magical knowledge about this planet.
Time flies by fast.
The staff member finished typing the last line of message and said with a smile: “Mr. He Xile, all the questions have been finished so far, and your identity information has been successfully entered into the terminal. However, because of your special identity, some questions have not been clarified. if it is still necessary, I may contact you to supplement later, I hope you can cooperate.”
He Xile nodded obediently: “I will.”
“By the way, the instrument you are wearing on your wrist is a temporary terminal and has not been bound to your account. Your personal terminal will be completed in a week, and sent directly to your guardian. Please pay attention to check your receipt.”
Huh?
Guardian?
Does he still have such a thing?
He Xile had never heard anyone mention it before. Blinking his eyes, he asked a little confused: “Who is my guardian?”
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
The people in the hall looked at each other.
“So, this human doesn’t know yet?”
“…… You go ahead and say it.”
“No, no, no, it’s better for you to go.” The staff smiled wryly.
After an afternoon of getting along, everyone had only one thought about the human being in front of them.
——He is so good.
Humans are so cute!
However, now, they have to tell humans such a cruel thing, which is bit unbearable.
He Xile was at a loss when seeing how they were pushing and shoving each other.
What’s the situation?
In the end, Captain Xing came to He Xile’s side and said in a deep voice. “It’s like this. After you were discovered by scavengers, you were sold to several star pirate organizations, and finally auctioned off by His Majesty in the black market. So, your current guardian is our Majesty.”
He looked at the ignorant He Xile, knew very well that this poor human being, didn’t know what kind of creature His Majesty was.
The captain let out a sigh.
“Alright, let’s go, now go see your guardian.”
After judging that He Xile had no aggressive tendencies, the guards needed to complete the handover as soon as possible, to the museum staff and they will deliver this human to his guardian.
Before leaving, he secretly handed over his personal terminal contact information to He Xile, and said in a low voice, “If necessary, you can call me through this communication.”
Inside the splendid palace complex.
A tall man sat on a high throne.
His left leg is placed on the right one, while his arm rested on his knee, sitting in a frivolous posture. The heavy cloak as black as ink covered half of his body, but it couldn’t block the cursing black lines.
The lines extended from under the collar, like fangs and claws, covering half of the man’s face but still, it did not damage his handsome face.
His eyes were as brilliant as flames, his long eyelashes dropped slightly, and he lazily glanced at the nobles and ministers who were kneeling on the ground, their bodies trembling slightly, but did not dare to breathe.
“Or is there no one willing to confess who leaked the information?”
A deep voice rang out in the empty building, accompanied by a chuckle. “Then choose a few lucky ones at random to be buried with them.”
“Your Majesty—— ” The hoarse voice sounded.
In the next second, several nobles had already fallen.
Blood splattered to other survivors.
Everyone’s face went pale.
The old man who just made a sound was about to get up, but when he saw the situation trembling and fell back to his original position, he burst into tears: “How can this be – how can you kill innocent people like this without finding out the truth!”
When he heard what he said, he just laughed mockingly.
“…”
Three hours later.
“Your Majesty, the people who leaked the news have all been purged.”
“Clean up this place as soon as possible.”
The man on the throne rose slowly, his eyes coldly looking down at the blood all over the ground, and frowned inscrutably. “I hate l this disgusting smell.”
“…Yes, Your Majesty.”
As soon as he stepped out the gate, a person came forward.
And respectfully said: “Your Majesty, the people from the Imperial Center Museum have arrived and are waiting in the living room. They said they have something important to inform.”
“Hmm. Lead the way.”
Arriving in the living room, what came into sight wasn’t the museum’s staff, but a large and solid package, a very old-looking robot.
The robot scanned the incoming person and knelt somewhat sluggishly in front of His Majesty.
“Good day, Your Majesty. The human being you donated to the museum ten years ago recovered miraculously and woke up at 2:32 p.m. today.”
The robot said in an indifferent tone. “According to the law, Your Majesty, you are now his guardian.”
