Zerg: I ​​was picked up by the cold and beautiful Major General at the start of the game.

It has been several days since Ailand left, and there has been no news from the front lines, and communications have been cut off.

Staying at home, Lin Luo always felt like a stone was pressing on her heart, and all sorts of bad thoughts kept creeping into her mind uncontrollably.

He realized he couldn't keep letting his mind wander like this, so he decided to go out and distract himself.

He went to see Theodore.

Theodore, sprawled on the soft sofa in his living room like he had no bones, raised an eyebrow when he saw Lin Luo's somewhat sullen expression and lazily began to speak:

"Oh, what's wrong? It's only been a few days, and you're already missing your Elland like this? You seem so absent-minded."

"No way!" Lin Luo retorted instinctively, stubbornly insisting, "It's just... a little boring."

Theodore gave him a "I don't believe you" look, but didn't continue teasing him. He stretched and stood up.

"Since you're bored, why don't you come out for a stroll with me and clear your head? It's better than you just sitting here cooped up and getting moldy."

They made simple disguises—wearing masks and turtlenecks to cover up insect patterns—before going out together.

Walking on the bustling street, the view opened up, and the lively atmosphere seemed to really wash away some of the gloom in my heart.

They planned to go to the ice cream shop and stroll around while eating. Just as they were walking towards the ice cream shop, Lin Luo suddenly felt a weight on his leg and was bumped by something soft.

"Duang!"

He looked down and saw that it was a female insect larva that only reached his knees and was wearing a small, worn but clean outfit.

The little one was probably running too fast and didn't see where he was going. After bumping into him, he lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud, dropping the small paper packet he was holding.

The little one looked a bit dazed, lifting his chubby little face with his big, watery eyes; he looked incredibly cute.

Lin Luo felt as if her heart had been struck by lightning, melting into a puddle of water.

He quickly squatted down and asked worriedly, "Little boy, are you alright? Did you hurt yourself?" He reached out to pat the little guy's shoulder to comfort him.

The little female looked up and saw Lin Luo's face and neck exposed from squatting down. He was clearly a noble male insect!

His little face turned deathly pale in an instant, his eyes filled with terror, his body stiffened like a little piece of wood, trembling and unable to utter a single word, on the verge of tears.

Lin Luo's heart softened, and she quickly and gently pulled him into her arms, patting his back softly and gently.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Big brother isn't a bad guy. Did you hurt yourself? Don't be afraid..."

The little female was embraced in a warm and sweet-smelling hug, and a gentle stroking came from her head.

He had never been treated like this by an insect before. The scolding and beatings he had imagined did not come. The gentle touch and soothing whispers miraculously relaxed his tense little body.

Feeling the little guy in her arms stop trembling, Lin Luo loosened her grip slightly, looked him in the eye, and softened her voice: "Tell your brother, where's your female father? Why are you all alone here?"

The little one blinked its still slightly watery eyes and timidly pointed its tiny finger towards a freight platform not far away:

"Father... Father is there, earning star coins..." His voice was small, with the soft, sweet quality unique to cubs.

Lin Luo looked in the direction he pointed and saw a female insect struggling to carry a heavy box.

He was missing an arm and a leg and was fitted with mechanical prosthetics, but his movements were very clumsy and inconvenient.

From his upright back and the traces left by his movements, one can vaguely see that he was once a female soldier.

Lin Luo felt a slight pang in his heart. He turned back, his voice even gentler: "Baby, what's your name?"

The little female blushed slightly when she first heard an insect call her "baby," and a quiet joy welled up inside her. She whispered, "My name is Mir."

"Mir, that sounds really nice." Lin Luo smiled and continued, "Does your father move things like this every day?"

Little Mir nodded, his little head drooping slightly: "Um... Father said that if we don't move things, we won't get any star coins, and Mir will go hungry..."

Lin Luo gently stroked Xiao Mir's soft hair.

He got up and quickly walked to the convenience store next door, where he bought a large bag of easy-to-eat children's snacks and several bottles of premium nutritional supplements.

He walked back and handed the bag to little Mir: "Mir, here's some good food for you. Take these nutritional supplements back with your father and mother; they'll be good for your health."

He thought for a moment, then asked, "By the way, what's your father's name?"

"My father's name is Eamon!" Little Mir answered, tilting his head back as he carried the bag that was rather heavy for him.

"Eamon... I'll remember that," Lin Luo said gently. "Hurry up and finish eating these before you go find your father. Don't let him worry."

Little Mir reluctantly began eating the snacks Lin Luo had given her, stealing glances at her gentle and handsome older brother who seemed to glow with light after every two bites.

After finishing a small piece of pastry, he hugged the bag, whispered "Thank you, brother," and then ran towards his female father, turning back every few steps.

Lin Luo waved to the female insect in the distance, ignoring his dumbfounded expression, and walked away with Theodore.

After walking a distance, Theodore nudged Lin Luo with his elbow and teased:

"What? You like little cubs that much? Then hurry up and have one with your Ailand! With his level and abilities, he can definitely give you the best quality insect egg."

Lin Luo rolled her eyes at him speechlessly:

"Can you stop jumping around like that? I just thought the child was cute, and his female father..."

He paused for a moment, then said, "I want to start a factory that specializes in producing panda-related merchandise, such as clothes and toys."

"The factory mainly employs female veterans like Imon who are struggling financially after leaving the military, providing them with jobs and paying them higher wages so they can better raise their babies."

Theodore turned his head to look at Lin Luo, his eyes becoming somewhat inquisitive:

"Is it because of Elland? I've noticed that you always pay special attention to female soldiers and always want to help them."

Lin Luo paused for a moment, then subconsciously replied, "Hmm? Maybe. I just saw it and wanted to use my limited abilities."

Theodore, however, dropped his nonchalant expression: "Lin Luo, don't you think... you've gone a bit too far?"

"What's too much?" Lin Luo asked, puzzled.

"Previously, you quietly donated 30% of your doll profits to a charity fund for the purpose of subsidizing disabled female soldiers."

"Later at that charity gala, you donated all the profits from the Rolling Roll Project during that period, which caused a sensation."

"Now, you're going to set up a special factory to recruit female veterans and offer them above-market pay..."

Theodore stopped and looked into Lin Luo's eyes:

"What you've done, reported through the StarNet and the media, has spread throughout the entire Empire, and your identity is that of a high-ranking male insect."

"Now, you want to go even further... Lin Luo, have you considered how much prestige you'll accumulate if you continue like this?"

Lin Luo's face showed astonishment:

"Reputation? Theodore, you're exaggerating! I'm just an ordinary male insect. I just saw some things I couldn't stand and wanted to help. How does that relate to reputation?"

He added firmly, "I'm just an ordinary insect, I can't do anything earth-shattering. You want me to fight a star beast right now? I'd be scared to death, okay?"

Theodore looked at him dismissively, shrugged, and put on his usual lazy demeanor again: "Fine, whatever makes you happy."

He continued walking forward, inwardly cursing wildly:

What you call "trivial matters" are probably more numerous than the Second Prince Keith, who is vying for the throne and trying to win over the hearts of the insects!
