Chapter 517: Chapter 517: The Inexhaustible Superpower
Su Wan hadn’t noticed her daughter was missing.
She was in the study, looking at exam-related material, when she suddenly felt something and ran out.
She saw that all the flowers in the garden were somewhat wilted; none were dead, just listless. Was it because they lacked water?
"Vermilion Bird, have the robot come over to water them."
"Yes."
Vermilion Bird relayed the task to the domestic robot, specifically in charge of maintaining the garden, which then rolled over and began carefully watering the plants, sweeping up fallen leaves, etc.
Just as Su Wan was about to leave, she suddenly spotted a small white mushroom at her feet. She picked it up, took a look, then felt something and immediately turned around and ran back towards the house!
On her way back, she encountered Gu Jue, who grabbed her, "Wanwan, what’s wrong?"
"I’m going to check on Xiaoyan!"
"Let’s go together."
The couple hurried to the children’s room and saw only their older son Xiaochen there. Xiaochen looked around, puzzled, "Mom, Dad, where is Xiaoyan?"
"Xiaoyan has been playing by herself in the room."
It suddenly occurred to Su Wan that the wilting of the plants in the garden might be related to Xiaoyan!
Gu Jue called over White Tiger, "Pull up the surveillance footage."
White Tiger fluttered over with wings buzzing, nodded hurriedly, and turned on an electronic screen, revealing the scene inside the children’s room.
The footage showed Xiaoyan entering the children’s room, everyone else left, and she was in there the whole time without leaving.
Then, after a flash of white light, Xiaoyan disappeared, and about ten minutes later, Xiaochen walked in.
The footage ended there.
Gu Jue frowned and looked at Su Wan, who pursed her lips slightly, "It’s spatial superpower."
No sooner had she spoken than the air in the room suddenly distorted. Before long, Xiaoyan, holding Little Mushroom, slowly walked out from within it.
The family stared at Xiaoyan, dumbfounded.
The little girl was startled and somewhat confused until she finally reached out to her mother Su Wan, "Mommy..."
Su Wan, already worried sick, immediately held her daughter in her arms and said, "Xiaoyan, Mommy’s here, be good, where did you go?"
"I, I went to find Little Mushroom."
Feeling her daughter’s fear, Su Wan hugged her tightly to comfort her, then gave Gu Jue a look, and he took the boys out.
In the children’s room, only the mother and daughter remained.
Su Wan spoke softly, "Xiaoyan, where did you go to find Little Mushroom?"
"It was, it was where you found me, Mommy. What happened?" Xiaoyan didn’t want to reveal Brother Little Mushroom’s secret, but she also didn’t want to lie to her mother. It was so hard to choose, she didn’t know what to say.
Su Wan saw her daughter’s discomfort and didn’t want to press her further. She said tenderly, "Okay, but next time don’t leave by yourself, Mommy and Daddy will worry about you, okay?"
"Mm, I, I understand."
"It’s late. Come, let Mommy give you a bath, and then you can go to sleep early, okay?"
Finally, she didn’t have to keep Brother Little Mushroom’s secret or lie to Mom anymore; the little girl nodded vigorously.
While Su Wan was bathing her daughter, she checked and found that her daughter was completely unharmed, As for why she could be spatially transferred, the child might not even know herself.
Also, as for the withering of the flowers and plants in the garden, could that be related to Xiaoyan’s spatial transfer?
After Su Wan bathed her daughter and told her a story, she only left when she had coaxed her to sleep.
Gu Chen was still very anxious, "Mom, is Xiaoyan okay?"
"Your sister is fine, but don’t go over today, she’s already asleep."
"Oh, then I’ll tell her a story tomorrow. I just made up a new one."
"..."
Su Wan thought that maybe Xiaoyan didn’t really want to listen to Xiaochen’s stories, but well, after all, he was her own son. She shouldn’t say it and make the little guy sad.
After soothing Little Gu Chen on this side, Gu Jue had also calmed Little Gu Yu on that side. The parents then returned to their room, where Gu Jue said, "I reviewed the surveillance video just now, and it seems that the moment the garden’s plants withered was also when Xiaoyan disappeared out of thin air."
Su Wan said, "When Little Mushroom first attached to me, and later, after Xiaoyan was born, she could suddenly turn into mushrooms. I thought it was because Xiaoyan is a Plantman."
She lifted her head, "I’ve always thought that Xiaoyan, being a Plantman, takes the form of a mushroom."
Gu Jue said, "So, we’ve been looking in the wrong direction. Xiaoyan is indeed a Plantman, and the mushrooms... might mean that Xiaoyan also has spatial superpower abilities."
"But she’s still too young now, and she keeps talking about finding mushrooms. Over the next few days, I should spend more time with her and also teach her how to control her spatial superpowers."
Although Gu Jue knew this was the best course of action, he actually felt a bit worried.
"Don’t you need to prepare for the Probationary Commander’s exam?"
Su Wan said firmly, "Xiaoyan is more important. If she can’t control her spatial superpower properly, who knows what dangers might occur."
Gu Jue wrapped his arms around her, feeling annoyed for the first time that he himself didn’t possess spatial superpowers. Otherwise, he could take the burden off Wanwan and protect Xiaoyan himself.
Su Wan reached out her arms and hugged him, "Don’t you worry, my exam won’t be delayed, and Xiaoyan will be fine. Commander Gu, when did you become so fussy?"
The fussy Commander Gu felt a bit helpless; he had turned into this because of his little wife, hadn’t he?
Of course, Gu Jue couldn’t bear to blame his wife. No matter how he changed for her, he accepted it with pleasure.
Su Wan, busy teaching her daughter spatial superpowers, didn’t mean Gu Jue completely neglected matters. He consulted Gu Qingyu for advice specifically on this issue.
"Qingyu, what progress is there in the research on Plantmen?"
Gu Qingyu, clad in a white coat, pushed up his glasses and said, "There’s hardly any progress because there’s no sample! In the entire universe, there’s only your family’s Xiaoyan who is a Plantman!"
Gu Qingyu was reluctant to use the little girl for any research. Over the years, he had only ever asked Gu Jue for three strands of Xiaoyan’s hair.
Gu Jue said, "Xiaoyan probably has spatial superpower abilities as well. When her superpowers were triggered yesterday, all the plants in the garden wilted. Have you ever seen this kind of situation?"
Gu Qingyu went blank for a moment, then immediately lit up his brain-computer and opened a virtual screen where he searched for a while before stopping on one page.
He said in shock, "Those plants gave their own energy to Xiaoyan, powering her superpowers!"
That meant, Xiaoyan’s superpowers would never be exhausted!
This was a capability that, beyond her being a Plantman, could make the entire universe go crazy!
Gu Qingyu looked left and right to make sure there were only the two of them in the room, then said very seriously, "This matter definitely cannot be known to others!"
