One Punch Abbie

Chapter 51 You actually added tea to your medicine!

.

About an hour later, Abbie left Kelsey's lab.

During this hour, Abby acts more as a mascot.

She listened to Hayasaka and Kelsey discussing the various prospects that the gemstone crystal dragon and multi-purpose slime could bring, and she listened in on the sidelines, giving "very big picture" suggestions from time to time under the guidance of the puppet.

When she was finally able to leave Kelsey's office, she often breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relief like get out of class was over.

Seeing her like this, Hayasaka put his arms around her shoulders and leaned closer to her ear.

"You don't seem to like the atmosphere just now."

Hayasaka's voice was so soft that no one could hear it clearly except for Abby.

"Indeed, it's a little... I can't get used to it."

After deliberating on the words for a while, Abby finally attributed his performance to being unable to adapt.

"I know that some choices are correct, but I can't make a decisive decision. I know that hesitation will only make the situation worse, but I will always be indecisive when I am about to speak."

"Is this probably a sign of my immaturity?"

Thinking of the prompts from the system to improve his performance, Abby smiled with a hint of self-deprecation.

The smile on Hayasaka's face disappeared, she chewed on Abby's words, and looked away, not wanting Abby to see her expression.

"Immature?"

She repeated Abby's words in a raving tone, took several deep breaths, and didn't know what she was thinking.

This situation only lasted for a short while, and this level of emotional fluctuations was originally within the range that Hayasaka could suppress, but she didn't want to show that... hypocritical and perfect self in front of Abby.

She felt that she might be affected by Abby's passive effect, and she always cared too much about Abby's feelings, thinking about the future for a long, long time.

Obviously after the task is over, she may not even be able to be an ordinary friend, but she will inexplicably fantasize about the future of herself and Abby, the kind of future that is so beautiful that it only exists in fantasies.

Temporarily burying his sensibility in his heart, Hayasaka put his hands behind his back and showed a sincere smile.

"What are we going to eat tonight? Should we order some dishes in the cafeteria, or let me cook for you?"

Hearing Hayasaka's inquiry, Abby didn't think about those meaningless questions.

She showed a thoughtful look, which only lasted for a moment.

"Although it's embarrassing to say it, I still want to try the dishes you carefully prepared."

She quickly gave her answer.

"Why should you be ashamed? I'm glad to hear what you said."

After saying this, Hayasaka seemed to have remembered something, showing a look of gossip.

"Did you report the profiteer Ke Luxie? I didn't seem to hear Kelsey mentioning the spoils just now."

Hearing that Hayasaka used "dividing the spoils" to describe Kelsey's share of accounts with himself, Abby laughed softly and nodded to Hayasaka.

"Reported, together with the small group she built. However, the doctor is busy with slime affairs recently, so he probably won't take care of such trivial matters in a short time, right?"

The corners of Hayasaka's mouth turned up slightly, outlining a pleasant arc.

"That's why you don't know that old woman. Before tomorrow comes, these small transactions of Lucille will definitely be checked by Kelsey."

"When the sun rises tomorrow morning, you should be able to see Ke Luxie being hung on the flagpole to write a review. The only variable in this incident is how many people will be hung on the flagpole with her."

Abby blinked, showing some disbelief.

"I thought doctors were the kind of people who would stay up and sleep on business."

Hayasaka shrugged.

"It's really part of her character, but she's a workaholic and also a vengeful old woman."

"If you accidentally offend her, and you happen to have something in her hands, you won't be able to find the word 'forgive' in her dictionary."

Hearing Hayasaka mention 'forgive', Abby thought for no reason of the forgiveness hat he had lost in Mordor.

She thought about Kelsey wearing the forgiveness hat, her whole body was covered in green, and she couldn't help laughing.

At the same time, she looked around guiltily, making sure that Kelsey was not by her side.

After being backstabbed twice, when she did something wrong to someone, she was careful as if she was talking small talk in the class of the head teacher.

Seeing Abby's cautious look, Hayasaka smiled softly and didn't say anything more.

"Don't you need to prepare ingredients or something?"

Abby noticed that Hayasaka didn't seem to intend to go to the purchasing department, so he asked curiously.

"In terms of ingredients, I prepare some all the year round. When I stay up late at work, I often have to cook something by myself in the middle of the night."

"Oh oh oh, does Hayasaka often stay up late?"

Abi's question made Hayasaka's expression stiffen.

"Recently, I often stay up late for several tasks. It will be a lot easier to become a reincarnation just now than before."

Hayasaka's words let Abby understand from the side how much pressure she had before becoming a reincarnation, which made her cast a little pity on Hayasaka.

Sensing the strange emotion in Abby's eyes, Hayasaka's expression revealed a bit of bitterness.

Hayasaka's room was on the top floor of the ship, and the area was not too big. It was only about [-] square meters including the toilet and kitchen.

The decoration here is quite simple, and only a little girly atmosphere can be detected on some small accessories on the bedside.

Abi was a little surprised when he saw Hayasaka's bat in the living room.

"Can you still play baseball?"

Hayasaka nodded slightly.

"Well, I used to imagine that the baseballs flying over were those guests with a lot of rules, so as to decompress."

Hayasaka's answer made Abby's breathing stop slightly, and the short time spent with Hayasaka made her feel that Hayasaka used to live in a pressure cooker, the kind that could drive people crazy at any time.

Hayasaka did not go further on this topic, she rummaged through the refrigerator and counted the remaining ingredients.

"Do you want to eat sushi or pasta? There are not many ingredients, and this is the only thing you can do."

Abby did not give such a headache answer as "casual". She thought for a while and gave her own answer.

"I'd rather eat sushi."

Hayasaka nodded, indicating that he understood.

She took out the rice and other ingredients from the refrigerator and placed them on the stove, waiting for their temperature to rise slightly.

While waiting, she took out the teapot and opened her cupboard.

"Would you like to drink... just black tea?"

An ominous premonition arose in Abi's heart, and after a little hesitation, she nodded.

"Yes, I have no taboos in this regard."

Hayasaka nodded, made a pot of black tea, got a cup for Abi, and returned to the stove by himself.

Gently sniffing the rich aroma of black tea, the ominous feeling in Abi's heart became more intense.

"Is this really just ordinary black tea?"

She took a deep breath and asked Hayasaka such a question.

Hayasaka's movements froze for a moment, and then answered her in a calm tone.

"Of course, this is just ordinary black tea."

Hayasaka's reaction aroused Abby's curiosity. Out of trust in the "weak divinity", she decided to take a sip to see if there was really something wrong with Hayasaka's black tea.

...or what the hell is wrong with it.

Abby trusts her intuition so much that, so far, her instincts about crises have never been wrong.

The sense of crisis brought by Hayasaka's black tea is not too strong, which is one of the reasons why she dared to try it directly.

She picked up her teacup and took a sip.

The warm liquid tastes mellow, and it is indeed the taste of top-quality black tea.

This made her feel a little surprised. She thought that she could respond to her intuition of crisis, so Hayasaka brought her a cup of pure medicine.

Hayasaka actually added tea to the medicine, which was beyond her expectation.

Abby put down the teacup and stroked his lips lightly with his fingers.

Her lips were slightly moist from the black tea she had just sipped, which gave her movements a little bit of coquettishness.

However, after drinking the black tea, she stayed for a while without feeling any discomfort.

This made her tilt her head, doubting the accuracy of her intuition for the first time.

She had just become suspicious when the system's notification sounded.

"Due to the influence of an unknown drug, you got the debuff 'Sleep', which lasts for 12 hours."

"Your passive 'Weak Divinity' has been triggered, and the effect of the debuff has been reduced by 9... An unknown error has been detected, and the debuff has been immune."

"You have completed a successful impersonation, corresponding to the element 'The Lonely Witch', and your compatibility with Abigail Williams' inheritance has improved."

There was indeed something wrong with the black tea that Hayasaka brought to her. This discovery made Abi's curiosity uncontrollable, and she became more and more curious about what Hayasaka wanted to do to her.

So, she closed her eyes pretending to be affected by the debuff, collapsed softly on the sofa, and put on a posture of "I'm passed out, I can go to bed".

Seeing the effect of the black tea, Hayasaka breathed a sigh of relief.

She put the half-made sushi in the kitchen, washed her hands, and carried Abby from the sofa to the bed.

With an apologetic expression on her face, she took off the JK uniform on Abi's body, starting with shoes and socks.

Hayasaka's bold move made Abi's heart beat a little faster. She sensed Hayasaka's behavior, and wondered in her heart, could this be the legendary "Lifan Unfolding"?
