章節 44: IE: Chapter 44. Noah the Third Wheel!
When the blood was drawn, Noah was still a bit confused. Laura's blood was red, while Ben's blood was clearly blue.
But when Weaver began to observe Laura's cells, she immediately found something different.
"Her cells are very active, more active than yours. It seems that within her cells, there is a great deal of energy. But you said she acted like a normal person. This isn't normal."
'With such cell activity, she should be a superwoman. What went wrong?'
When testing the genes, her genes was also very different from that of earthlings, and there were many similarities compared with Ben's genes.
As for the bracelet, the material was very special. It was definitely not a material from Earth, but it had no function. It may just be a token.
"N, you're right, she must be an alien with Zarthan blood. She just looks too much like an Earthling, but the genetic test shows that she has no Earthling blood."
"Her cells decayed quickly after leaving her body, as if they lacked an energy supply. I have to get another tube of blood from her and study it carefully."
Weaver's eyes were shining. 'I haven't encountered such an interesting alien gene for a long time. Maybe it can be used to try a new gene fusion experiment.'
"Why do you need to draw blood twice?" J looked at Weaver with some dissatisfaction. 'Wasn't one drop enough?'
Noah pulled J aside, "J, her blood is abnormal. I suspect that she's from Zartha."
"What's the exception? Zarthan's blood is blue, her blood is red. You can't fool me. N, this is no time for jokes. You know I like her."
"Earthlings have blood mutations, aliens should have them too. Think about it. Why did those aliens kill her foster father? What exactly are they looking for? I suspect that she's the Light of Zartha."
"Don't be ridiculous, she's a human being and the Light of Zartha is a super energy source. N, are you jealous that I found a girlfriend who's prettier than Weaver?"
Noah looked at J speechlessly. 'My girlfriend has a wonderful body, even in work clothes. She's passionate and hot as fire. With Laura, as skinny as a board, you think I'm jealous of you?'
Weaver was talking to Laura while drawing blood.
"What do you usually like to eat?" While thinking, 'do aliens have different diets or the same as earthlings?'
"I like fruit, don't you?" Laura thought it was just small talk.
"I also like fruits, like papaya." Weaver immediately asked again, "What about you?"
"I like grapes."
...
"N, aren't you going back to the dorms?" J was at the bottom of Noah's apartment building, and his eyes kept imploring Noah to leave.
"This is my house, why should I leave? Laura came over to stay overnight. If you have nothing to do, you can go back to the dorms and watch some video's or something."
Laura curiously asked, "J, you like watching movies?"
"It's all old classics, we'll have a chance to watch them together later." J laughed awkwardly as he tried to seal Noah's mouth, 'What are you doing mentioning my tapes!'
Laura couldn't stay at the M.I.B building, but because her memory wasn't erased, she still had to be monitored. So, J choose to let Laura stay at Noah's place for the night.
The original idea was for him to stay with Laura, and he thought about putting on a piece of music and dancing with Laura. Maybe he could do the same as Noah and Weaver, jumping right into bed, right after a dance.
But, after trying so hard to hint at Noah, the guy wouldn't leave!
'bro... are you trying to be the persistent third wheel?! Why are you doing this?'
"N, are you tired? You've had a long day, you should go rest in your room."
Noah took out a deck of playing cards, "We should be alert incase those aliens show up, we can't sleep tonight. It's boring, let's play poker. if you can't play, I'll teach you."
J glared at Noah. 'Oh, come on man! Don't you understand that you're in the way!'
"Yeah, let's play."
Hearing Laura agree, J angrily sat down, "Why don't we bet on it?"
J wanted to work with Laura to win some money from Noah, just to make Noah give up and stop the game early.
Noah smiled, "Sure."
Noah 'accidentally' touched Laura's finger while grabbing the cards.
[Ding!]
[Super energy source Light of Zartha detected. It can be used to upgrade the system. Do you want to start the upgrade?]
'Of course, yes!'
Unfortunately, after so long, it was still at 0%. It was as if the charging was stuck. When he grabbed cards in the next few rounds and touched Laura's hand, he seemed to see the progress bar move.
'1%!'
Now, he confirmed that this was almost like downloading on a network that disconnected from time to time. He had to find the opportunity to connect every time. Always touching her hand, Noah found that J's eyes seemed murderous.
When Laura was the dealer, J would always attack Noah's cards. 'Why is he so cruel?'
Fortunately, he experimented with a new method. He 'accidentally' positioned his leg to touch Laura's leg. Just like when the 'Galaxy' was separated by a layer of clothes, the system started charging.
J suddenly looked down. He found Noah's legs were quite apart, and his legs seemed to be next to Laura's all the time. But Noah didn't go too far. 'It seems unintentional. Am I thinking too much?'
However, when Laura came back from the bathroom, he found that Noah's legs, which had just closed, were separated again.
"N, let's change the positions. I think my seat is too unlucky."
Noah looked at J, 'Changed his position?'. He doubted it, but still changed seats. He went from touching Laura with his left leg, to touching her with his right leg.
After playing for a few hours, the charge had been filled to 33%, he couldn't give up now.
"N, are you sure you don't want to rest? I'll stay here with Laura. You have to keep up your energy. We're going to catch Serleena in the morning."
In the end, J couldn't resist. 'What's the point of playing poker all night?' Laura was winning, but N didn't lose either. He was always losing money!
"J, with my physical fitness, I won't be affected. But you keep yawning, you should sleep." Noah 'kindly' advised.
Of course, J wouldn't agree. He was curious, Noah's fitness was understandable, buy why wasn't Laura tired?
At dawn, Noah was still in high spirits, and Laura didn't seem tired, but J's eyes were blurred. He ran to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water several times, but still fell asleep on the table in the end.
Noah continued chatting with Laura. He told some embarrassing stories about J, and Laura was very interested.
Noah didn't wake J up until the call from Zed came.
This charging was much faster than the first one. Noah was satisfied with 61% of the progress. Today, if he could find some chances to touch her, he would be able to upgrade the system.
J looked up in a daze, opened his eyes, and was stunned by the light on Noah's head.
'This third wheel was too smooth, its reflecting light!'
