Time in a collapsing world

"Sakura, is your mission going well?"

After sending Paduo and Ling away, Li and Ying occupied the chatting time that should have belonged to those two people.

"Well, there are no humans who can threaten me."

"Ah That's good."

Li thought for a while, "By the way, is there any new action from the Fire Chaser Moth? Mebius asked me to come out to take refuge. They should have some activities."

"It is true that a group of people were called away recently, but I don't know exactly what they were doing." Sakura usually knows everything about Li.

"Really...Has anyone come back so far?" Li asked the key question.

"……No."

"..."

Okay, it's another super dangerous experiment, and there is no success... Is it the second generation of super-changing surgery?

"Also, it seems that Hua from the first team was also called away."

"Tsk..."

Thinking of Mei who was still smiling and greeting Hua at the party, Li felt unhappy.

"Li..."

"I'm fine. When did this happen?"

"This morning."

That should be after Alicia got on the helicopter.

"...Forget it, according to Mei, this is a necessary gamble anyway?"

And if he hadn't come here, he might have become a member of the experimental platform.

"Another [world] is still necessary..."

"Li? What are you talking about?"

"No, it's nothing. Can you help me take a look at the situation over there? If Hua shows up, just tell me."

"it is good."

If it's just this kind of request, Sakura will naturally agree.

"Xi, Li, where are you~?"

Alicia's melodious voice came from outside the door.

"Oops!"

Li shouted that something was wrong.

"Alicia? Did she go there too?"

Sakura said alertly, she clearly remembered seeing Alicia wandering around the base last night.

"Well, it's a long story... You must not come here too!"

"Huh... no, I have a mission."

"..."

Did you just exhale? If I didn't say anything, you would definitely run over with the bell, right? !

"Then I hang up and I will drive Alicia back as soon as possible!"

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, Li turned around and found Alicia's pretty face occupying his entire field of vision.

"...There's no sound when you open the door? Also, don't appear behind me like a ghost!"

"I'm sorry, it's just that I saw that you and Sakura were too focused on the video call, so I didn't want to disturb you~?"

"This is 100% an excuse, right?"

"So, so, does Sakura miss me?"

"?Why do I miss you?"

"Huh? I thought my pretty face could at least occupy a place in Sakura's heart~?"

"Don't think of others like you, okay?"

Li opened the distance between him and Alicia, "When you came here, Hua might have been taken away for experimentation. The danger is very high. Why don't you go back and take a look?"

"..."

Li's words immediately silenced Alicia, who originally wanted to continue teasing.

"There's no use if I go back, right?"

Alicia sat on the bed, "The Fire Chaser Moth is listening to Mei's words now, and there's nothing I can do about it..."

"...Then all we can do is pray."

After Li finished speaking, he changed the subject, "How is Teofel's current situation? You should have gone up to see me and Xi before you came, right?"

"It's very good~ It's completely changed back to its previous appearance. I feel like it won't matter even if I don't send it back~?" Alicia's tone also became more relaxed.

"I have already told Mebius that if we let her go, it will not be easy for Xiko and I when we go back, and we still need to check it just in case."

Suddenly spinning like Spider-Man, Rizhen was worried that Teofel had secretly mutated without their knowledge.

"That's right, Li, do you know what I discovered when I took a hot spring bath with you just now?" Alicia said suddenly.

"what?"

"Look at me here~?"

Alicia turned around, pointed her back towards Li, and then lifted her long hair, exposing the back of her neck.

"Do you want me to chop it?" Li couldn't help but ask.

"If you have the heart to do it~?"

"...So what do you want me to see?"

Li took a look at Alicia's smooth skin and couldn't see anything wrong at all.

"I originally had a small scar here, which has been there for a long time. It doesn't feel comfortable at all."

"Is it okay?"

"Hmm~disappeared just today~?"

"...It feels like it's within the scope of normal human body recovery."

"No, no, Li, I think this must be Teofel's credit, or Cocoon's credit to be precise~?" Alicia shook her finger.

"..."

Li recalled that the big butterfly could instantly recover from its injuries after being wrapped in a cocoon. It was also possible that Theophel could gain abilities by eating its flesh.

"There is too little evidence. Let's wait until Theofel survives with Mebius... and then we can wait until the examination is completed."

"That's right...then let's go have dinner. After dinner, let Eden help arrange a helicopter~?"

"So be it."

……

Early the next morning, Teofil was put on the helicopter. Until the helicopter took off, he still looked at Xi with a pitiful expression, trying to persuade her to go back with him.

Unfortunately, it is destined to be impossible.

"Ah...Sister Fei is gone."

Pado looked up at the helicopter with only a small black dot left. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or lonely.

"Sister Paduo, it's okay, I'll stay with you~" Xi patted her shoulder and comforted her.

"That's right, there's me too~?"

Alicia was combing her long hair with a comb. She didn't even wash up in order to see off Theophel.

"Then let's go, Miss Eden. Thank you for your employment and hospitality."

The support team leader and Eden nodded, and then their helicopter was driven over.

"Well, I look forward to our next cooperation." Eden responded with a smile.

When the last group of people left, only Pado, Eden, Alicia and Xi were left. Alicia also looked at Eden.

"Eden Eden, your mission has been completed. You won't be able to go back for a while, right? So how are we going to play?"

"Play……"

Hearing that Alicia seemed to be planning to stay with them until the end, Eden said helplessly: "Ally, is there really no problem with the first team?"

"I've already called Kevin and asked him to take care of it, so it's okay~?"

"Kevin? I can rest assured if it's him..."

Eden took a look at today's weather. It was sunny and there was no tendency of rain. He led a few people towards the hotel and said, "Let's go to the beach. I have already prepared a lot of entertainment equipment there." .”
