Chapter 616 Cover up

"..."

Klein watched her carefully as he handed the document to Mebius.

The laboratory was destroyed, and she was a little worried about Mebius himself, but at least it seemed to be fine now, and she was actually a little happy.

Did the experiment make new progress after that night?

"Doctor, our new laboratory is great! I like it here!" Danzhu sat on the exclusive office chair, lying comfortably. The softness was much better than before.

"Senior sister's doll has also been updated, and its skin is softer." Cang Xuan pinched the face of the armed doll and was reluctant to let go.

"Stop touching..."

Klein also felt a little ashamed as he watched his short self being held up and down by Cang Xuan.

"Hmm...but I still feel like something is missing. Doctor, why don't you dismantle the laboratory again? I want to add a self-service beverage machine in the next laboratory. I can't drink coffee~" Danzhu had to push further before starting work. Of course it was repaired by Mebius.

Xi was still thinking wildly about the intrigue between Mebius and Li, and Cang Xuan didn't even hear Cang Xuan say hello to her.

After leaving in confusion under Mebius' playful eyes, Nozomi met Sakura and Qianjie who had returned from the mission.

"Hey, I'm really unhappy. The prey was snatched away by you this time..."

"It was you who suggested we split up. I encountered it first. It is destroying human settlements and should not be left alone."

"So you deliberately let it breathe and waited until I came over to strike the last blow? I don't see that you have a bad taste."

"It's just a coincidence."

"Ha... who knows?"

When the indifferent Sakura saw Nozomi walking towards her, she immediately ignored the fiery Qianjie, took a few steps forward quickly, and called out.

"..."

Qianjie took a look and felt that he didn't want to entangle Sakura anymore in front of the little girl, but because of his previous experience, he didn't want to deal with children, so he turned a corner and left directly.

Sakura could feel Qianjie leaving without saying goodbye without turning her head, and she didn't say anything as she had long been used to his character.

"hope."

"Sister Sakura?"

Sakura helped her up, otherwise Nozomi would have almost bumped into the person in front of her.

“Long time no see~”

Xi put the messy thoughts behind her for the time being and said hello with a smile.

"Well, what are you thinking about?"

Sakura could see that Nozomi was worried, and it was very serious.

"I……"

Nozomi thought for a while, but still didn't tell her troubles. She knew that if she told Sakura about this, things would probably become troublesome.

"It's okay~"

"is it?"

He didn't seem to be okay at all, his heart was beating very fast.

Sakura pondered and didn't ask any further questions.

"Sister Ying, are you back from a mission too?"

"Well, we arrived at the base at 8:49 today."

Sakura killed the emperor-level Honkai Beast in her hometown. After the genetic extraction personnel arrived, she quickly got on the helicopter for the return trip. All the way, she listened to Qianjie's complaints about not being able to enjoy the battle to the fullest.

"This is for you, from my original hometown." Sakura took out a small cloth bag from her pocket and handed it to Nozomi.

"This is……?"

At Sakura's signal, Nozomi opened it, and what came into view was full of pink cherry blossom petals. She reached out and picked up a piece, which was still cold.

Sakura has used her ability specifically to cool it down in the past few days, just to keep it in the freshest state.

"Such beautiful cherry blossoms, thank you Sister Sakura~"

"As long as you like it. Suzu also has a bag. I will give it to her when I get home... How has she performed in the past few days? Did she complete her homework seriously?"

"There should be..."

Xi thought that Paduo and Ling had been spending time together recently. Will these two people learn? Obviously not, but Nozomi couldn't directly tell Sakura that her sister was lost in playing with things, so she had to whisper an ambiguous answer.

Later, when Sister Ying is not paying attention, secretly send a message to Ling. If not, you can quickly make up for it while Sister Ying is not home to check.

This is the last thing Xi can do for his friend.

The two of them came to the store, and Sakura bought Xi a small cake to eat as a treat. But what made her feel strange was that after being gone for so long, Li showed no signs of coming out, which was a bit abnormal.

Sakura, who couldn't help but want to talk to Li, asked, "Where is Li? Why doesn't he come out?"

"..."

The smile that Xi maintained froze, followed by a feeling of nervousness.

How should I explain it to Sister Ying? That the eldest brother and sister Mebius have an unspeakable secret?

This sounds very wrong at first sight, and it can easily arouse sister Ying's suspicion, which is the case for Nozomi herself.

Nozomi didn't want to see the harmony between Sakura and Mebius being broken by her words.

"Big brother... he's not awake yet."

Xi whispered.

"..."

Sakura glanced at the getting dark sky, then looked at Nozomi.

are you serious?

Xi felt that Sister Ying's eyes seemed to be saying this.

Xi is getting more and more nervous...

Sakura's fox ears stood upright, listening to the "dong dong dong" sound of Xi's heartbeat.

Sakura frowned slightly, "Did something happen to him?"

"No, no!" Xi shook her head hurriedly.

"..."

Listening to Nozomi's heartbeat, Sakura judged that she was not lying.

But this is strange. If nothing happened to Li, would there be any unspeakable secrets?

Instinct told Sakura that she should continue to ask, but seeing how nervous Nozomi was now, with her heart rate over 100... Sakura swallowed back what she wanted to ask for the time being, and turned to talking about daily things.

"..."

Big brother, I will do my best for you.

They returned to Ying's dormitory at five o'clock in the afternoon. The two of them saw Padu, who was watching TV leisurely on the sofa, and Ling, who had received the message and was frantically catching up on homework.

Seeing his sister looking at him with lowered eyes, and Xi behind her with a helpless expression, Suzugan smiled, and the two hands that were working at the same time slowly stopped.

"Sister, sister... welcome back. You've worked hard. What are we going to eat tonight?"

"Ling, I will not only check the completion of your next homework, but also the accuracy."

"!!!"

Suzu looked at Xi with tears in her eyes. The other party shook his head and gave her a helpless look.

"..."

Sister Paduo, I have been harmed by you!

Ling, who had no self-control to begin with, was tempted by Padu, who often came to her door. Of course she couldn't resist and joined in the happy game time, completely forgetting to write.

God knows how pale Ling's face turned when she received Xi's notification, and the precious handle couldn't help but slip from her hands and fall to the ground.

"Oh! Sister Xi, Sister Ying, welcome back!"

The temptation demon named Paduo himself was completely unaffected and even wanted to have a meal here.
