"Slurp, slurp...hiss~...Wow! Yes, yes, that's the taste!"
In a Tian's specialty ramen restaurant near the city hall in M City, Mu Continent, Kevin finished his meal in one breath. After finishing a whole bowl of noodles, he said with a satisfied look,
"I really didn't realize it! Assistant Professor Xu, seeing you frequently saying golden sentences in the conference room before, I really didn't expect that you actually like noodles! This taste is so delicious! ...It's just too good! ...Boss! I'll eat two bowls!"
"Kevin..."
When MEI heard Kevin shouting that he wanted to eat two bowls, he held his forehead with some shame and said,
"Mu Most of the commercial areas in the mainland use AI self-processing modules, and in order to block some noise, it is useless to shout directly like you do... Look, there is a self-service communication ordering menu, just order whatever you want Well, I'll pay for it."
"That's a bit too polite, classmate MEI."
Xu Ziling smiled slightly Then, he said,
"On stage is on stage, off stage is off stage. Just now, I had to give you a warning due to my position and responsibility. Why do you still remember it... Don't worry, the teacher said he would treat you and he would do it. I will never ask you to reimburse me this time... Really, you have to trust me, your teacher."
"This... um, okay."
After all, it was Xu Ziling's good intention, and Mei couldn't force it, so she took back her phone and gave up. He pushed his bowl of ramen, which still had a lot of noodles left, to Kevin beside him and said, "Kevin, I can't finish it, you eat it... and tell me in detail what you and Su have experienced in the past few days. . I still don't understand why the ME Club didn't pick you up, but instead asked you to find Assistant Professor Xu..."
"Ah? You're talking about this..."
MEI pushed her portion of ramen to Kai Wen, Kevin is not polite. For him, eating two bowls of noodles is no problem, and three bowls is also easy.
Su, who was sitting opposite Kevin, silently added another bowl of noodles and a bottle of water to the electronic menu.
Kevin, who had been hungry for several days, was so hungry that he explained to MEI about his relationship with him. Su's experiences and feelings over the past few days.
What is surprising is that Kevin can actually spit out clear words while having a mouth full of noodles. This seems to be against common sense, but MEI's attention has been drawn to Kevin. He was so attracted by what he and Su were talking about that he didn't pay any attention to this.
After a while, just a bowl of noodles, Kevin told MEI about his experiences in the past few days. Su also added Xu Ziling had heard Kevin and Su's explanation before, but now was different. He was actually quite curious about MEI's reaction. Logically speaking, ME picking someone up at the airport shouldn't be a big deal. It's a difficult thing.
His previous guess was that MEI knew about this but did nothing, so he said in the previous negotiation, "Before asking others questions, you can ask yourself first." But now it seems that the facts seem to have deviated from his conjecture?
But this magical deviation has successfully made the plot, which should have been calm, interesting. It happened that Mobius and the others were still on their way, and Xu Ziling Nothing to do, just come here to join in the fun and kill time.
After listening to Kevin and Su's story, MEI frowned. She thought she could relax a little after the meeting, but what Kevin and Su experienced made her feel even more relaxed. It was the success that brought back her doubts and confusion that should have dissipated with the end of the meeting.
"So... the people from ME Club didn't pick you up?"
MEI, who was full of doubts and excitement, was now My head hurts, and I subconsciously reach out to support my forehead, muttering to myself,
"But... this shouldn't be the case... Father clearly promised me that he would send someone to pick you up, so... how come no one picked you up? ?”
MEI couldn’t figure it out, and couldn’t understand it, because this matter was irrational no matter how you looked at it. From childhood to adulthood, her father has always loved her the most. He has never refused anything MEI said.
Even when she brought Kevin home for the first time, he only showed his anger as an old father-in-law and confirmed that Kevin After Wen's character was no longer a problem, he immediately let it go.
According to all the information available, my father and Kevin had no grudges against each other. If it were possible, MEI would not want to continue his academic research. , they will still be a family, and there is no reason for the father to harm Kevin, right?
If it is true
If it was the key, why didn't they just send someone to pick up Kevin in Changkong City? Instead, they went to great lengths to send him to Mu Continent and then let him fend for himself?
Father-in-law's test of his future son-in-law?
Impossible, no father-in-law would test his son-in-law like this. Besides, it's not like I didn't bring Kevin to meet my father, and my father didn't dislike Kevin. No matter from which angle, this matter is extremely inconsistent and unreasonable.
"Could it be that the elders in the club are interfering... No... This is not right..."
MEI, who couldn't figure it out, held her forehead with a headache, and the joy of meeting her classmates again was overshadowed by anxiety and confusion.
Seeing MEI like this, Kevin was a little anxious for a moment. As we all know, stupid brains do not equal no brains. Kevin, who is known as the little prince of emotional intelligence, quickly patted his chest and said:
"Uh... Hey! MEI, don't take it so seriously! If you want to say what I think... This matter may not be as complicated as you think. Maybe it was because it was too dark at the time, and Su Yan and I couldn't see the people from ME Club. In addition, we ran around for a while... Uh, maybe we ourselves are the real reason why we couldn't find the members of ME Club?"
"Do you think so..."
Hearing this, MEI's brows were still frowned.
Kevin has been pursuing her for three years, and of course she is familiar with every piece of information about Kevin, including his physical condition.
Although Kevin is usually a bit frivolous, with Kevin's superhuman eyesight that can detect strange movements in the dark night, is it really possible that he would mistake a living person in his field of vision...
MEI clearly remembers how Kevin joked with himself at Qianyu Academy while noticing the abnormality in the dark that ordinary people could hardly detect.
Compared with the black shadow at that time, the uniform of ME Club should still be quite conspicuous.
"Alas..."
After not being able to figure it out, MEI sighed deeply, shook her head at Kevin, and said,
"Forget it...Kevin, no matter how much we think about it here, it's just one-sided fantasy. Later, you can go with me to find my father and ask him in person about the details of what happened."
"Ah?"
Kevin, who had just finished a bowl of noodles, was shocked when he heard that he had to meet his parents. After reacting, he quickly said,
"Wait... It's not that serious, right? MEI, this kind of thing... Do you need to find Uncle Long to verify it?"
"It's that serious."
MEI stretched out a finger to Kevin and said seriously,
"Kevin, it's not that you haven't seen my father before. You should also know that he is a meticulous person, and a person who will definitely fulfill his promises once he has promised... From childhood to adulthood, my father has never lied to me or rejected me. But this time... Something abnormal has occurred, which is very strange.
At the same time, it is precisely because he is my father that I should continue to investigate the specific reasons for this matter. If it is really because after the fall of Changkong City, my father worked all day to make up for the loss of the headquarters collapse and forgot about this matter, then you can go with me to find him and spend more time with him... But I can vaguely feel that this matter is not as simple as you think..."
"This... OK, then I will listen to you."
Speaking of which, Kevin originally planned to find MEI. If the father-in-law is not busy, he will go with MEI to meet him. After all, with the collapse of Changkong City, the ME headquarters located in Changkong City also collapsed. That is the annihilation of countless funds of the company. In order to continue to turn over the remaining branches of ME Society, his father-in-law must have used all his connections and worried about it these days, and as a son-in-law, he should go to comfort him.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Su silently sipped his bowl of ramen. He knew that now was not the time for him to speak, and he even felt that his head was faintly glowing.
However, after seeing Xu Ziling's leisurely expression beside him, Su had to secretly admire him in his heart. He was indeed an assistant teacher Xu. He could not help but remain calm in such an embarrassing situation and easily did something that others could not do.
If I were sitting here alone, I would have already used the excuse of going to the toilet to avoid it.
However, the fact is...
System, do you think MEI also meets the conditions of the Valkyrie/Yingjie in your mission?
[Uh... Let me check the information...]
[Ding~! Back to the host, the Valkyrie's alien world isotope can also be judged as the mission conditions of the 'Valkyrie'. ]
[It is detected that ‘MEI’ is the isotope of the real game character ‘Raiden Mei’ in another world, that is, the flower of similarity, which meets the requirements of the task ‘Valkyrie/Hero’. ]
Isotopes in another world are also classified as the requirements of the task ‘Valkyrie/Hero’... Is that so?
After listening to the system’s narration, Xu Ziling couldn’t help but look at MEI twice more.
Don’t get me wrong, this is not to say that he wants to see the other party explode, but after listening to the news that MEI said just now, he suddenly recalled something.
Assuming that the Herrscher of Reason was really born as the system said but no one noticed, then now that the Herrscher of Void has fallen, the next Herrscher to be born is probably the Herrscher of Thunder with [Electromagnetic Force] as his power.
As a Qing Dynasty accomplice of Mi Huyou, Xu Ziling naturally read a lot of fan fiction about Honkai Impact 3rd before crossing. Moreover, because the Herrscher of the previous civilization was not mentioned in detail in Honkai, many authors of fan fiction have assigned the Herrscher of Thunder of the previous civilization to MEI's father.
Now MEI has started to say that her father's behavior is abnormal... Although Xu Ziling cannot directly determine the identity of the other party's Herrscher, it is still okay to give MEI a shot of prevention.
Thinking of this, Xu Ziling looked at MEI and Kevin who had finished their conversation, and after paying the bill through the smart menu, he stood up and looked at MEI, saying:
"Excuse me, classmate MEI."
"Well, what's wrong?"
Seeing Xu Ziling, the host, stand up, MEI, who had almost finished eating, also stood up and asked.
Kevin looked around, picked up the bowl of soup and drank it all in one breath, then took out a tissue from the table and wiped his mouth and said:
"Hi! Assistant Xu, just because you are also a ramen lover, I, Kevin, have made you my friend! If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Su, MEI and I don't pay much attention to those trivial things."
Xu Ziling smiled helplessly when he heard it, and silently sighed in his heart that they were really naive at this time. After glancing at Su who had also stood up, he waved and said,
"Thank you for trusting the teacher so much... Come on, let's talk while walking."
The group walked out of the unmanned self-service ramen restaurant under the Tianshi Group.
Thanks to the development concept of Mu Continent with efficiency as the core, even though it is noon in Mu Continent, there are still not many pedestrians on the street. For people living here, the extremely developed takeaway logistics industry and AI nanny chefs can solve most of their needs in life.
If it is not something like business cooperation that requires personal appearance, residents living in Mu Continent prefer to stay at home or in the company as leeks, rather than going out to physical restaurants to waste their time.
After ignoring these gradually familiar scenes, Xu Ziling looked back at MEI and said:
"Before asking you specific questions, MEI, I need to know, are you a member of the 'Moth' now?"
Kevin and Su were both confused by this question, while MEI's eyes flashed with a glimmer, but there was no big change in expression, just nodded silently and said:
"Well, Mr. Bai Wu from Europe introduced me to the identity. Under the wings of the 'Moth', I will start from the most basic clerk and try to catch up with Dr. Mebius's pace."
"Very good... Then for you, some words don't have to be so restrained."
Xu Ziling nodded and looked at Kevin and Su again.
"Uh..."
Kevin didn't understand what MEI and Xu Ziling were talking about, such as moths and fire, but his intuition told him that maybe he should avoid Su first, so he grabbed Su's wrist with one hand, nodded to Xu Ziling, and said,
"No need to say, assistant, I understand. The next topic should be about the world situation, right? Su and I will avoid it now..."
Xu Ziling was about to say that you two will join the fire-chasing moths sooner or later, so there is no need to avoid it, but Kevin had already pulled Su away before he opened his mouth.
"Ha~..."
After a helpless smile, Xu Ziling looked at MEI and said,
"Classmate MEI, first of all, thank you again for trusting me. Secondly, you should have a certain understanding of "collapse" now, so what I want to ask you is, suppose one day... when "collapse" falls on the people around you, how will you... react?"
