Honkai Impact, please stop imagining it.

"She studied chimera to cure Lin Yu's illness. She thinks you are cold-hearted and ruthless, and you think she is vicious. You two are really innocent fools."

I was completely speechless.

Mebius felt like the world was playing a joke on her. What was going on? Was she still dreaming? How could she have the illusion that Himeko was a good older sister and Mei was a good childhood friend?

"Impossible. She has so many lives on her hands, and she is ruthless towards her experimental subjects, using them and then discarding them. How could she have done it just to cure Lin Yu?"

himeko retorted in a second with a sneer, "You're joking. Who the hell am I? I'm the clever himeko. Do you think I'd be fooled by your sweet talk? No way!"

Mebius: "...She said that you went from being an ordinary researcher to one of the leaders of the Fire Moth, willing to do anything for power. If you research the Chimera Project well, you can reach the pinnacle of the Fire Moth. Lin Yu is just a rag in your hands, which you might throw into the trash can after you're done."

himeko scratched his head. "This doesn't make sense. Then why did she send you here?"

Mebius took a sip of milk tea and immediately tasted a pearl. "She picked up Lin Yu, whom you threw into the trash can, and then cleaned him up and took good care of him like a jewel."

himeko: "...A complete simp. How could such a simp become Lin Yu's childhood sweetheart? It's unbelievable."

Möbius: "I don't understand either. This industry is really messed up. Are all you physicists who switched careers so crazy?"

"Lin Yu's father, Lin An, secretly changed his research from applied physics to biomedicine for his son's sake, and then violated the rules of the Fire Moth by forcibly conducting experiments without permission."

"A quantum physics expert turned his attention to biological research on Honkai Beasts, restarting the Chimera, all to save his childhood sweetheart."

"You, a materials physics professor, switched careers directly to the combat department and are now the commander of the Sino-Australian Iron Cavalry, one of the leaders of the Fire Moth, and then quickly switched to biomedical research, all just to save your teacher's son."

"Are all of you physics students this courageous and conscientious?"

Set your sights on one goal and work on it single-mindedly, imagining everyone else as criminals trying to stop you.

Mebius felt he was being ridiculous, acting as Lin An's assistant to be wary of moths drawn to flames, acting as Mei's assistant to be wary of Himeko, and acting as Himeko's assistant to be wary of all outsiders.

So, I can get involved in everything related to you physicists who jumped ship and even assist you?

Chapter 62 Dr. Möbius, you're using a small horse to pull a large cart; you're in love.

"I'll do it!"

The window was opened, and Lin Yu squeezed in from outside. He wiped non-existent sweat from his brow and was about to ask where the Himeko drink was when he saw Mebius sitting on the sofa with a bewildered look on his face.

A question mark appeared above Lin Yu's head: "A green-haired older sister."

Möbius: "This is the eighth floor, right...?"

This is the eighth floor, right? How did you manage to climb in through the window?

Lin Yu: "Big Möbius!"

It's not Little Mébius, alas, what a pity. Little Mébius is much cuter than Big Mébius, although Big Mébius looks pretty good too.

Möbius: "You remember me?"

Lin Yu: "You once gave me a piece of candy, it was very sweet."

Möbius: "..."

Himeko rummaged through the refrigerator cabinet below, finally finding a bottle of fruit juice in the wheat juice section and handing it to Lin Yu. Lin Yu took it and sat down opposite Mebius. "Himeko-nee actually invited you. Although, even if Himeko-nee hadn't invited you, I would have suggested it myself."

With Mebius and himself as successful examples of fusion warriors, the next fusion warrior will appear soon. Technological advancements will definitely be faster than the Seventh Herrscher, and perhaps even the strength of Honkai will advance with technological progress, so Himeko won't become the Herrscher of Flame.

Inviting Mebius was definitely a smart move.

Möbius: "You actually still remember me... I thought you had long forgotten me."

It happened six years ago, and they only met once. That meeting was on the day of the experiment. Lin Yu remembered her for so long, and even planned to have him invite her to work in Australia...

Yes, in Lin Yu's eyes, he was just his mother's assistant back then, not some great scholar. The Honkai outbreak was getting more and more serious, and given Lin Yu's personality as Mei told Mebius, it was perfectly normal for him to want to protect himself.

To remember someone for so long after just one meeting... could it be that I was that charming back then? Even Lin Yu, who was only ten years old at the time, was captivated by me.

Mebius subconsciously touched his cheek; it was smooth and delicate. It was possible!

“How could I forget? Ms. Mebius, you underestimate yourself.”

Fusion warriors, genetic ascension, one of the smartest researchers of the Fire Moth, the bigwig of the First Research Institute, one of the founders of the Fire Moth, and even the boss of the Paradise of the Past in the future—if you can forget all of this, then you must have amnesia.

“If I had forgotten you, it would be because I have amnesia, Ms. Mebius. You came here because of my health, right? I brought you some special Honkai Beast tissue fluid when I came back from Changkong City, but the level is relatively low, so please don’t mind.”

Lin Yu took out the tissue fluid test tube he had scavenged from Hua's waist and placed it in front of Möbius. Möbius's nose immediately cleared and his head felt cool.

"I will cure your illness as soon as possible. Himeko-sama will assist me, right?"

Mebius looked at Himeko, unsure whether to take the tissue fluid.

himeko nodded, sat down in the chair and struck the standard pose of Itsuka Kotori, clasping her hands together in front of her chin with a serious expression, "Fifth Squad is ready at any time."

Möbius had never fought such a wealthy war in his life. He had money, soldiers, Primarchs, and research institutes.

Moreover, the Primarch was so obedient, and Himeko was so supportive. This reminded Mebius of her miserable time at the Firemoth headquarters, where she had to beg and plead with Klein to write reports for everything she wanted, and what he gave her was always some dubious and worthless stuff.

And here, what Himeko gets is absolutely the best he can find.

I just want to study genetic ascension. With such good conditions, Hmm, Mebius felt he should offer himself in return, otherwise he felt he was being too greedy.

Mebius greedily grabbed all the test tubes and stuffed them into his pocket. He patted Lin Yu's shoulder forcefully and said with righteous indignation and excitement, "Absolutely, absolutely, I will definitely let you live. Even if the whole world wants you dead, I will definitely let you live."

Lin Yu: "Oh, this."

After saying that, Mebius stood up and hugged Lin Yu tightly, rubbing his chin against Lin Yu's head. Lin Yu felt a milky fragrance and his head was spinning.

After letting go of Lin Yu, Mebius excitedly hugged him again, but was interrupted by Himeko, who had a dark expression, just as he was about to hug him again.

"A couple of hugs is enough, just be mindful of the occasion."

Please be mindful of the occasion. I'm still here. What are you trying to do?

Mebius pulled Lin Yu outside, saying, "Go check Lin Yu's body and see if it's really as I think. Tell the Fifth Squad to prepare. The upcoming battle will be difficult. I need more than just the tissue fluid from these Rush-class Honkai Beasts. I need at least the Emperor-class ones. You know how terrifying those Emperor-class Honkai Beasts are, right?"

himeko's expression suddenly turned serious. Emperor, Emperor-level Honkai Beast.

Emperor-class Honkai Beasts are high-ranking Honkai Beasts, the kind with names, unlike the lower-ranking Honkai Beasts that only have general names.

The Emperor-class Honkai Beasts are something that the current Firemoth would never want to provoke, both in terms of quality and strength. Even Himeko, when facing Honkai Beasts of this level, mainly tries to drive them away as long as they don't appear in the city.

They are extremely rare; there are only a few dozen in the area that the Fire-Chasing Moth can explore.

........

Möbius took Lin Yu to the research institute where several important buildings had just been completed, and gave Lin Yu a comprehensive examination there.

When Möbius was administering anesthesia for the gastroscopy, he specifically asked Klein to ask Cangxuan Danzhu for a packet of sugar.

After all the tests were completed, Mebius looked at Lin Yu, who was sleeping on the hospital bed, without waking him. He turned around and went out to wait for the test results while calling Mei to clear up the misunderstanding.

Mebius: "Mei, Himeko is a good person. You were wrong before. Lin Yu is completely free and can go wherever he wants. He didn't come looking for you because he didn't know you and Kevin were at the Moth of Fire headquarters."

Mei, who was working overtime late into the night for Einstein, answered the phone with a puzzled look on her face.

Mei: "Mebius, you didn't take money, did you? How much did Himeko pay you to say such things? Is she pointing a gun at you and making you call me?"

Mebius looked at the unpainted walls and said, "What I said is true. Himeko is really a good girl and a good older sister. She invited me here so that I could study the chimera to cure Lin Yu. Her thoughts are exactly the same as yours. It's just that she thinks you are a bad person, and you think she is a bad person. The misunderstanding between you is just an error caused by a lack of communication channels."

Mebius: "Lin Yu is lying right behind me now. I recorded a video and sent it to you. The scenery in Australia is really beautiful. The resources that Himeko allocated to me will definitely exceed your imagination. It's a research institute that's bigger than a military compound. I'm the highest-ranking officer in it. The Fifth Squad is always ready to assist my research."

Mei: "...What do you want to say?"

Möbius: "Why don't you come to Australia so we can do research together? Lin Yu is here too, so you can spend time with him."

Mei frowned. "Australia has beautiful scenery."

Möbius nodded. "Yes!"

Mei: "Incomes are high in Australia."

Möbius: "Hmm!"

Mei: "Australians are always ready to cooperate with you."

Möbius: "Hmm!"

Mei: "Lin Yu and you are both very free to go wherever you want."

Möbius: "Yes!"

Mei: "Did Himeko ask you to trick me into going there to eat kidneys and then kill me?"

Möbius: "Huh?"

Why would you suddenly have such thoughts? Himeko even personally inspects construction sites, personally supervising them in 39-degree heat. Moreover, she has an older sister-level love for Lin Yu; she even keeps drinks for Lin Yu in her cabinet. Why is she doing this to you?

Mebius: "That's not true. Himeko is a kind person and she's serious about her work. She even hesitated a lot when I asked her for test subjects. How could she possibly kill someone randomly?"

himeko confronted Mebius directly, admitting that she was able to climb to that position entirely through Lin Yu's father's connections and her own small amount of effort.

The rumors circulating at the headquarters of the Firemoth, claiming that they are cold-blooded, ruthless, evil, and treacherous, and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, are all just gossip, baseless accusations, and false.

After seeing the genuine respect that Himeko's teammates showed her, Mebius also felt that she wasn't the kind of person who would casually call for violence.

Mei sneered, "If you had called me a month later and told me this, I might have believed you. But you just went there and you're already telling me Himeko is a good person. Unless you bring Lin Yu back, I won't believe you."

Möbius: "...The research institute isn't even finished yet. Oh well, with Lin Yu here, it won't be difficult to develop mass-production results. I'll take Lin Yu back within six months."

How could we possibly take Lin Yu back now? The headquarters of the Firemoth and the Australian branch of the Firemoth have completely different levels of importance attached to the Chimera Project.

The headquarters of the Fire Moth only used less than one percent of its resources for its own research, but Australia was able to allocate as much as twenty percent of its resources.

The difference between the headquarters and the Australian branch is significant, but not drastic. Australia pays much more than the headquarters. Would you take Lin Yu back there to suffer?

Möbius studies wherever she can find the best research opportunities; she doesn't discriminate.

Mei: "Then I'll wait and see. Can I talk to Lin Yu now?"

Mebius glanced back at Lin Yu, who was sleeping soundly on the hospital bed inside the room, occasionally scratching his face as if he were being attacked by mosquitoes, and whispered, "Lin Yu is asleep now. He just finished his physical examination. Is tomorrow okay?"

Mei: "Do as you please, I'm going to study quantum mechanics."

Möbius: "Why are you studying quantum mechanics?"

Mei sighed, "I'll help you raise the funds."

........

So Mei is still too cautious. Everything has already been made clear, so why is she still unwilling to face reality?

Does she think it would be awkward for her to come over looking all dusty and gray?

That makes sense. After all, Mei has been wary of Himeko for the past few months, so it's understandable that she would feel awkward and distrustful when she suddenly discovers that Himeko has the same goal as her.
