Chapter 211 Nervous

There wasn't a single lie in Li's mouth, and she didn't mention anything that shouldn't be said, but she coaxed Ling over easily.

It's a pity that Ling didn't continue to ask further questions. The pile of drafts Li had prepared in her stomach were useless, which was a bit regretful.

"Sister, what exactly is your superpower?" As expected, after being completely relieved, Ling asked this question.

"..."

Sakura looked at Li and saw that he was also curious, and she didn't know what to say.

"Forget it, your sister has just woken up and hasn't tested it yet. Let's wait until later to discuss this issue."

After receiving a silent glare from Sakura, Li had no choice but to reconcile. If Sakura had the ability to create matter like Alicia, the family might not be spared.

"Eh~ Okay then..."

Ling was slightly disappointed, but quickly recovered, "Sister, can you let me touch your ears again after dinner? Hehe, they feel great~"

"……no."

Sakura's originally droopy ears suddenly stood up, like a real small animal. This is a reaction that occurs when alert.

"Just for a moment?"

"No."

"Ugh... I've already touched it anyway, so it doesn't matter if I touch it again, right?"

"..."

You still have the nerve to say it?

"Please, sister~"

Ling launched her special skills, acting coquettishly and cutely.

"……All right."

"Okay! Sister is the best!"

Ling cheered for a while, then rolled her eyes and asked, "Then...let Brother Li touch me too? Anyway, touching by one person is touching, and touching by two people is also touching~"

Li, who was innocently eating melon, was suddenly cueed, and felt speechless. This guy really didn't miss any chance to send his sister away...

"……bell!"

Sakura couldn't help but raise her voice, and even her cheeks turned red. She didn't know whether it was because of anger or other factors.

"I'm sorry! Sister!"

Ling, who had long been prepared for her sister's anger, quickly apologized, finished her meal in a few mouthfuls, and ran back to her room, leaving only the two people in embarrassment outside.

Li silently picked up the rice, knowing that he had to let Sakura calm down at this time.

"Li..."

Sakura spoke softly.

"hold head high?"

Hearing Sakura call him, Li stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

"Do you want to touch it?"

"?"

"My ears..."

When she said this, Sakura's fox ears trembled slightly.

"Don't be affected by Ling's nonsense... although it does look good..."

The latter sentence was muttered by Li, but Sakura, who had enhanced hearing, heard it clearly.

"Then...you can touch it."

As if she had made up her mind, Sakura pursed her lips, faced Li's direction, and closed her eyes.

"Sakura, are you serious?"

"..."

Sakura nodded shakily.

Li stretched out her left hand and gently grabbed it, just like catching a rabbit's ear. There was no technique at all, but it made Sakura tremble all over, as if she was enduring the strange sound coming from the contact between the ear and Li's palm. Feel.

When Li let go of her hand, Sakura's body trembled less, and when she tightened her grip, she began to tremble again.

Hey Hey hey! How can you make me feel at ease and touch you like this!

Taking advantage of Alicia's experience, Li was worried that Sakura might not be able to hold back for a moment and make some kind of deathly noise. The sound insulation effect of this house was not that good.

and……

Li glanced at Ling who secretly opened the door a crack and was watching the scene with relish.

Tsk, sure enough Sakura was still too gentle to her.

"Li...?"

Sakura, who hadn't felt any movement for a long time, couldn't help but ask.

"It'll be ready soon."

Li took her hands away from Sakura's ears, placed them on the head between the ears, and gave her a hard rub.

Although there is not as much hair here as on Sakura's ears, it can still be used as a handle. The most important thing is that for Sakura, this part is far less sensitive than her ears.

"Ugh……"

There was a sound of disappointment from Ling's room, but after being glared at by Li, he quickly retreated.

"Li?"

Sakura reached out and touched the part of her head that was touched by Li, and looked at him doubtfully.

"Compared to your ears, your head is better to touch~"

Li smiled, clasped her hands together, and bowed to Sakura, "Thank you for the hospitality."

……

"Kosmo, Hen, it's your turn."

A staff member said to the two people standing in the laboratory that in order to speed up the implementation of the fusion warrior plan, Mei sent many people to assist Mebius, although most of them were assigned to do trivial tasks.

"Um……"

Kosmo nodded and looked at the closed door of Mebius' laboratory. It was like the abyss of a monster. He saw with his own eyes that many people who walked in came out lying down, and The kind that can never open your eyes.

"Don't be nervous, Kosmo, I'm still with you."

Hen smiled and patted Kosmo on the shoulder, although he also felt a little uneasy in his heart. After all, after this operation, he would probably never be able to see his wife and baby daughter again.

But as an older man, he cannot show timidity in front of his juniors. If even he is afraid, it will only add unnecessary pressure to Kosmo.

"...Thank you, Senior Hen."

"? Did I hear wrongly? Is this your first time calling me senior?"

Hen looked at the young man who had regained his silence in disbelief. In the past, perhaps because of the age gap, he and Kosmo had few common topics, so Kosmo would not take the initiative to talk to him unless necessary. , even when speaking, he would just be silent for a while, and then utter a few short sentences, sometimes even only one or two keywords.

Now this child is abnormally calling himself "senpai". This feeling is just like when she suddenly heard Gracie calling her daddy for the first time when she was a toddler... Although she was calling Blanca, it was still very disappointing. People are excited.

"Kosmo, are you calling me again? I didn't hear you clearly just now."

"..."

"Well, it seems I can't hear you anymore..."

Hen didn't care, "Don't worry, we will be fine. This is just a small operation. It will be over as soon as you close and open your eyes, so don't worry too much."

"..."

"After the operation is completed, our family will take you out to play together. Both Gratio and Blanca like you very much."

"..."

"Anyway, let's go in. I even believe that I won't die. How could you, a young man like you, have an accident before me? Right?"

Under the urging of the staff, Hen pushed Cosmo forward. He seemed heroic, but the uneasiness in his eyes could not be hidden the moment Cosmo turned around.
