Chapter 27 "Uncle Teddy has an endless supply of ideas in his head!"
Different from Lango who is immersed in the gentle land.
Five thousand kilometers away in Long Island, New York, the atmosphere at home seemed particularly cold and quiet.
Emma sat on the sofa, her legs crossed elegantly, her hands flat on her knees, and the heels of her leather shoes tapped lightly on the ground, making a rhythmic thumping sound.
Behind her, Meghan, who was almost the same height as her, was carefully combing her long hair, her fingers dexterously running through the hair, braiding Emma's hair into two long ponytails.
Before Lango left, he entered Emma's voice into Megan's instructions. During his absence, Megan was not only responsible for taking care of Emma's diet and daily life, but also protected her from any harm.
For this responsibility, Megan works very easily. After all, as a companion robot, she was originally developed to accompany children who lack relatives around them and provide them with care and protection.
"What's for lunch?" Emma asked casually.
"Salt-fried chicken wings, ham and corn chowder, and the clams braised in coconut milk that you specifically asked to eat in the morning."
Although it still has the same electronic synthesized voice, Megan's tone is much gentler and gentler than when communicating with Rango Teddy and the others. As a companion robot, she has a natural affinity for children.
After listening to her words, Emma showed a satisfied smile.
After being picked up from the orphanage by Lange that day, she became more and more satisfied with her current life.
Not only does she have an uncle who is cool and funny, but also dotes on her, she also has a robot friend at home who obeys her every word and tells her stories every night.
Even when she was in a bad mood, she could casually kill a few lively little people in the museum at night, and that sense of control made her feel even more happy.
If he had known this earlier, he should have killed that man earlier.
However, not everything goes to her liking.
"Whoosh whoosh-"
The sound of toilet flushing sounded again in the bathroom at the end of the corridor, this was the third time in a row.
Emma involuntarily increased the frequency of shaking her legs, and the sound of her heels hitting the ground became more rapid, revealing her inner irritability.
Not long after, Teddy lazily walked out with a cigarette in his mouth, scratching his thigh.
When he saw Emma combing her hair in the living room, he quickly put out the cigarette butt and threw it into the ashtray.
Lango had told her not to smoke in front of Emma before. Although it was a bit unpleasant, it seemed quite tactless to let others smell second-hand smoke.
He pretended to be mature and coughed slightly, sitting on the sofa opposite, then picked up a newspaper specifically for betting on football and started reading.
Emma glanced at him quietly, her eyes full of disgust.
She tried hard, but she really couldn't like this walking and talking stuffed bear.
Not only does he use bad words out of his mouth, but he is always yelling and screaming in the room, and sometimes he even reads restricted magazines in public.
Vulgar words, deeds, and inappropriate behavior are all challenging Emma's bottom line.
What dissatisfied her most was that her uncle, who was the closest to her, cared about him very much. Not only did he ask for his opinion on many things, but the two of them were inseparable almost every day, and sometimes they even stayed together while taking a bath. together.
She couldn't bear the fact that the person she loved the most was spending all day with the annoying guy!
"Uncle Teddy?"
"uh-huh?"
After burying all her thoughts deep in her heart, Emma showed the smile she had practiced countless times and whispered softly: "You just came out of the toilet and you didn't seem to wash your hands."
"handwashing?"
After hearing this, Teddy immediately laughed and said, "You don't think I'm defecating in there, do you? Please, it's noon now, and we bears only poop when it gets dark."
"What were you doing in there for so long?" Emma asked after a moment of silence. Teddy shrugged and explained: "I wanted to buy lottery tickets, but I didn't want to go out, so I flushed all the several-dollar bills into the toilet and pretended to have bought them."
"."
Emma became even more silent after hearing this.
"By the way Megan, is the food ready? Is there anything I like to eat?" Teddy stretched and asked casually.
"Before Lango left, he told him to focus on Emma's taste in the past few days, so he made it today." Megan said truthfully.
"Emma Emma."
Teddy muttered something unhappily. Since the little girl arrived home, Rango has focused all his attention on her.
It’s even been a long time since I sang “Thunder Song” with him!
"Eccentric guy."
After a while, one dish after another was brought to the table.
Megan carefully laid the tablecloth on Emma's legs, Emma gently stirred the soup in the bowl, and asked seemingly casually: "Uncle Teddy, I have a question for you."
"Oh? Tell me." Teddy asked curiously.
Emma frowned slightly and said seriously: "If there is a person who always says some unpleasant things and is extremely annoying, but to a certain extent, you yourself are not his opponent, then how will you deal with him? relation?"
"Hmm interesting question."
After Teddy thought for a while, he said: "I will pretend not to hear, go home and be angry alone, lie in bed and imagine how to warn him when I see him the next day, and even imagine what he will do if I take action." How should I deal with it, and if I really encounter him the next day, I will change the route all the way away and pretend not to see him. "
"."
This time, not only Emma, but also Meghan cast silent and surprised eyes after hearing this.
Isn't this too cowardly?
“Hahaha”
After seeing this, Teddy immediately burst out laughing and said, "Please, what I just said was just a joke, I'm a bear!"
"Haha." The two laughed awkwardly.
"Hey, listen Emma," Teddy continued seriously: "If you really meet such a person, you must either find a way to stay away from him. If you can't, then keep him away from you. If you need help Tell me anytime, Uncle Teddy has an endless supply of ideas in his head.”
After hearing this, Emma nodded in agreement and smiled, "What you said makes sense, and I think so too."
"Don't worry, just go ahead and do it boldly!"
Teddy encouraged: "Both Lango and I will support you. By the way, let me tell you a secret quietly."
Looking at Emma, who had always maintained a ladylike posture in front of him, he deliberately threatened: "There is a Glock pistol in the drawer of Lango's bedroom. If you need it, I can help you kill him at any time."
"Yeah?"
Emma was slightly surprised, then smiled, "I will if necessary."
"You're welcome, we are a family."
"Yeah, family."
I’d like to pursue reading. If possible, I’d like to ask for tickets.
