As he casually inquired about the others, NeiR, freshly possessing a "real body," pounced on Yi Lin, clinging to him and rubbing back and forth.

Uluru waved a hand.

Yi Lin's mouth twitched, thinking that Uluru's authority was a terrible match with "Intelligent Machine."
"So, are you here to help me block a shot?"
Uluru nodded: "Uluru wishes to repay the favor from that place."
