Time in a collapsing world

"No need." Mei shook her head and rejected Li's kindness.

"We haven't had time to do clinical testing on [White Flower]'s healing ability, and we don't know yet whether it will have any side effects."

"However, the ability to create is more than that, you can try it."

Mei signaled to the staff, who immediately understood and walked forward with a potted plant in which was planted an unknown type of plant that was on the verge of withering.

After the staff placed the potted plant on the ground, Li took the initiative to insert the tip of the [White Flower]'s spear into the soil of the potted plant without Mei's instructions.

"Snapped---!"

Under the watchful eyes of several people, as the collapsing energy surged inside the [White Flower], the potted plant suddenly exploded, and the plants inside quickly regained their green vitality as if they were on hormones, and continued to grow wildly. They did not belong to this type of plant. The huge roots and thick leafy branches spread wildly from the small potted plant, gradually spreading to the entire space, and soon turned the room into its own territory.

Pushing aside the leaves that blocked her view, Li saw a pitiful plant whose original appearance was completely unrecognizable.

"...Has the species even changed?"

"This is one of the few abilities of [White Flower] that can be used in battle, although it is less useful than other combat-type God Keys." Mei's voice came from behind the dense "bush".

"Kacha kacha——"

The staff used the knife they carried to cut the branches in front of them, revealing Mei's figure.

His expression was a little sad. After creating such a big scene here, they who were responsible for cleaning up afterward didn't know how long they would be busy.

"What a pity, I probably won't be able to use it anymore." Li shook her head.

"The adaptability should be out, right? How much is it?"

"With the [White Flower] alone, your suitability is 59.6%, but if it's the Black Abyss White Flower... well, when you first came into contact with it, it kept emitting strong Honkai energy from its body, which is obvious. It's 'resistance' to your performance." Mei said matter-of-factly, having obtained the data from the backstage staff.

"I knew it..." Li stretched out his hand and knocked hard on the [Black Abyss] placed aside, making a "puff, puff, puff" sound. If it hadn't been for this guy, he might have been able to obtain the second God's Key. Right to use.

"That's it, I won't test [Black Abyss]. Anyway, there won't be any good results." Li combined [Black Abyss] and [White Flower] again and put them back in their original positions.

"I'm still looking forward to the Mimic Black Abyss White Flower, Void Manzo... When can I come and get it?"

"It will be put into use tomorrow, and it won't take too long to enter the information." the staff member replied.

"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll come back tomorrow." Li glanced at the metal box containing Kōku Manzo with reluctance, her expression like that of an old father sending his child to kindergarten for the first time.

Although theoretically speaking, Fire Chaser Moth is its biological father, and he was just temporarily fostered by Li.

"Beep beep..."

Li's phone rang, and he had already adjusted the ringtone back to the default state. This time, there was no such annoying ringtone. Li was no longer so nervous and picked it up casually. What came from the other end was Sakura's call. sound.

"Li, are you busy now?"

"No, I don't have anything to do at the moment." Li thought for a moment. The battle was over and the God Key test was over. There should be nothing else to do today.

Mei asked the staff to open the door and let Li out. The test was completed, and it was their time next. There were still some data that had not been obtained. Mei usually did this kind of thing herself.

Li leaned against the wall outside the door and asked, "Sakura, do you want to see me for anything?"

"Well, I accidentally got a coupon for a store, and I wanted to ask if you could come with me."

Sakura on the other end of the phone was leaning behind the locked door, lowering her voice as if she didn't want anyone to discover anything.

She held a photo in her hand, which was her next assassination target. Sakura got the news that he would appear in a place tonight, but ordinary people must meet certain conditions if they want to enter normally, and to meet this condition, Need Li's help.

"When?" Li asked, as long as it was today, he could take it.

"Eight o'clock tonight."

"Will Suzuya go?"

"Just the two of us."

"Huh? Is the coupon only valid for two people?" This confused Li. Generally speaking, the first thing Sakura thinks of when something good comes up is Suzu?

"No, there is no limit on the number of people, but... Ling may not be able to go there."

"?"

……

At 7:30 in the evening, Li arrived at the place Sakura mentioned and understood why Sakura said Suzu couldn't come to this place.

【Night Couple Bar～love】

This place, let alone Bell, shouldn't go in even at his and Sakura's age, right?

So why did Sakura bring him here? Coupons... Li smelled a conspiracy.

Now he already has a flow chart in his mind:

[Get drunk - drag away - get a room - have a good time].

But the victim is the man... blanch! Isn't Sakura a bad learner? No, Li must correct her thinking.

Li also thought that Sakura just wanted to have a drink and confess to him or something, but he checked this bar and found that it didn't do any couple activities that were not prohibited. How could there be such a thing? Would a normal person choose this place to confess? !

Li folded her arms, with a serious expression on her face, and stood at the door of the bar, looking like she was looking for trouble.

The two janitors at the door originally wanted to drive Li away to prevent him from affecting the bar's business, but after seeing Li easily twisting a steel pipe into a twist shape, the two immediately retracted and did not dare to say anything. what.

Forget it, since they haven't caused trouble yet, they can just turn a blind eye.

"Li!"

After waiting for almost fifteen minutes, Li finally saw Sakura's figure.

Sakura was wearing a black and red dress today and carrying a red lady's bag. She really looked much more mature than before.

"Li, did I come too late? Why do you look so scary?" Sakura asked worriedly.

"No, I just thought of something unhappy." Li didn't question Sakura immediately. He was still waiting for Sakura to reveal her flaws.

"Really?" Something that could make Li so unhappy must be serious, Sakura thought.

"Then let's go in, shall we?"

"it is good."

The two of them came to the door of the bar together. Although the two big men were a little weak when facing Li, they still pointed to a sign placed at the door: This bar only allows couples to enter, and asked dutifully:

"Are you two a couple?"

"Yes."

"???" Li silently glanced at Sakura, whose face was not red and her heart was not beating. Is this child able to lie so naturally now?

I don’t know who I learned this bad habit from.

A man who always talks nonsense has no self-awareness.
