Sorry, you scumbag woman, you can do whatever you want.

"So, what do you think? He's a pretty good person, isn't he?"

"...You changed the subject so abruptly." Velvi sighed softly, closed her eyes slightly, and switched personalities.

“I’m starting to believe that you’re someone who’s come back from the future.” She reopened her eyes, her tone becoming more lively.

This also signifies the completion of the personality switch, transforming into the "Magician" personality that Mebius is most familiar with.

“You should choose to believe.” Mebius shook his head slightly, but he knew that Velvi wouldn’t be so swayed. It wasn’t that Velvi was stubborn, but that Velvi’s abilities were too outstanding. She had many ways to do things that people thought were impossible.

This ingenious scam, which makes people believe they've traveled through time, is so convincing that it's hard to believe.

That's why there's so little trust in her claim of time travel.

"Who told you not to reveal the answer yet?" Velvi smiled, her gaze falling on Aponia as she approached.

“Aponia, that’s her name.” Möbius walked to Aponia’s side, affectionately put his arm around her, and introduced her to Velvi, “How about it, isn’t my future confidante pretty good?”

“…An understanding one?” Velvi frowned slightly, her slender hand rubbing her chin. “I thought you were going to say that she was your lover of fifty thousand years.”

“That’s not really a contradiction, is it?” Möbius blinked her beautiful eyes, turned to look at Aponia, and asked softly, “If we could live for 50,000 years, would Aponia be willing to be my lover for 50,000 years?”

“…” Aponia paused for a moment, looking at Mebius’s gentle smile as he held her arm, then turned to look at Velvi with one hand on her hip, and fell into a brief moment of thought, wondering why the topic had become so strange.

"I'm sorry, fifty thousand years is too long for me, and I can't give you an answer." She answered Möbius earnestly, without a trace of falsehood.

Despite her mature figure and composed demeanor, she is not very old. She has no real feeling about the 50,000-year love that Möbius spoke of, and she cannot imagine the weight of 50,000 years.

After all, the fundamental design of humankind does not support immortality, and many bodily components lack the ability to self-repair and iterate.

Once the expiration date is reached, it is equivalent to death.

“No rush, we have plenty of time.” Möbius smiled slightly and looked at Velvi, introducing her, “Velvi is the pinnacle of human intelligence in this era, an extremely remarkable person.”

"Does that mean my magic is really amazing?" Velvi smiled confidently, only to be met with a glare from Mebius. While Mebius's magic skills were indeed impressive, his innovative mind was even more remarkable.

If given enough resources and enough time, perhaps Velvi could find a way to defeat the Honkai.

At least, ensuring the survival of humanity is not a problem.

“Hello, Miss Velvet.” Aponia smiled radiantly. “Please, come in and have a seat.”

After saying that, she habitually turned around and walked into the room, intending to prepare tea.

but.

After taking a step, Virvi immediately stopped, and her demeanor changed from lively to indifferent.

The personality has been switched.

(That girl's words carried a great deal of influence.) She glanced at Möbius, and their eyes met.

Then, she chose to follow in Aponia's footsteps, and just as she expected, the people that Möbius personally came to see were all extraordinary.

Aponia's words have a powerful influence, subtly altering people's behavior and thoughts.

If she hadn't possessed multiple personalities and immediately switched personalities upon sensing something was wrong, she wouldn't have been able to do so.

You might actually find yourself unconsciously doing things according to Aponia's words.

……

……

poverty.

There were four cups of hot tea on the table, as well as some cheap biscuits and candies, probably snacks for the children.

(This is illogical. How could she have such a great figure with such poor nutrition?) Velvi took a sip of tea and glanced at Aponia's enviable figure. It was absolutely impossible to have such a figure with poor nutrition.

For specific details, please refer to the character "华".

Of course, this does not mean that "Hua" did not receive enough nutrition, but rather that it did not receive enough nutrition.

Her figure is roughly "Hua" type... average.

“Little Paddo, you did a good job on the mission,” Mebius said at this moment. “You’ve become friends with Thousand Calamities and Aponia, haven’t you?”

“Uh… Boss.” Padofilis flinched, pulling back his hand that was reaching for the biscuit, and scratched his face awkwardly. “I wanted to get close to Qianjie, but he wasn’t too willing.”

Looking back on her conversation with Qianjie, she could probably sum it up with the word "get lost".

Despite the other person's seemingly irritable appearance, his intuition was surprisingly sharp, and he easily sensed that she had ulterior motives for approaching him.

I just told her to get lost.

“Is that so? That’s not surprising.” Möbius nodded slightly. “He came into this world…and was deceived quite a few times.”

"You're not lying, are you?" Velvi suddenly asked, only to see Mebius nod as if it were a matter of course.

"It was probably something like tricking him into having his blood drawn a few times, doing some experiments, and making him realize the reality of things."

“No wonder Little Pado couldn’t get close.” With some understanding, Velvi nodded, already imagining what Mebius had done to that “Thousand Calamities”.

Although she didn't know Qianjie's exact identity, the other party must be someone special who made Mebius conduct a detailed study of Qianjie. The process was naturally a combination of coaxing and deception.

It's estimated that it left a considerable shadow on the other party.

"Thousand Calamities, did you arrange for them to come to Twilight Street, Mebius?" Aponia suddenly asked. There were three full-time employees at the sanatorium.

Among them was Qian Jie, who was nominally a bodyguard arranged by the World Serpent.

To ensure that no problems arise at the nursing home.

Although the nursing home has always been safe, gangsters and petty thugs try to avoid it.

However, since it was arranged by the World Serpent, she did not refuse and allowed Qianjie to work at the sanatorium.

However, not as a bodyguard or thug.

Instead, it is used as labor.

“I arranged for him to come here.” Mebius nodded in confirmation. “Back then, when I accidentally found Qianjie, I felt sorry for him because he was all alone and helpless, so I took him back to the World Serpent to study him for a while.”

She picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"After confirming his safety, I sent him to the simple and honest Huanghun Street, where there are more people and Qianjie will be more comfortable."

"I feel like you've omitted a lot of crucial details, boss," Padofilis couldn't help but complain. Who would accidentally pick someone up and take them home, then study them for a while, and what's worse is dumping them in a place like Twilight Street.

This sounds like someone is hiding many secrets.

“They’re all just trivial details.” Möbius blinked, tapping his lower lip with his finger. “Anyway, I get along well with him, and it would be even better if he were a little more easygoing.”

……

……

at the same time.

"Ha, the green-haired woman?" Qianjie, carrying a bag of rice, listened to the child in front of him and learned that a green-haired woman who looked very gentle had come to the sanatorium and found Aponia.

"Could it be that woman with such a twisted sense of humor?" He recalled some unpleasant memories, his expression darkening further. He quickened his pace, delivered the rice to the kitchen, and then hurriedly left the sanatorium.

She didn't plan to have dinner at the sanatorium, even though the green-haired woman there might not be that sleazy woman with the perverse sense of humor.

But I still don't want to... have any contact with that woman.

Fear... no, he wasn't afraid of that woman.

Danger... no, that woman isn't dangerous.

In a sense, the woman posed no threat to him and even helped him a great deal.

However, that woman... was extremely difficult to deal with. When he was around her, even though he possessed extraordinary strength, he was completely unable to use it and could only be led by her words.

I felt extremely frustrated.

Chapter 85

You're the one who bled me the most!

It got dark.

As dusk fell, the street became even more lively, with roadside vendors' stalls lining the streets, their rich aromas tempting people's hunger.

"Brother Jie, your fried rice." A vendor, his face covered in cold sweat and looking fearful, placed a bowl of fried rice in front of Qian Jie and left respectfully, not daring to look at Qian Jie even once.

Not to mention, going to Qianjie to ask for money.

In Twilight Street, there are many people you shouldn't mess with, and among them, Qian Jie is the one you should least provoke.

"..." Qianjie didn't speak. He picked up the chopsticks on the table, glanced around, and saw that everyone in his sight had quieted down. Even the gangsters who were frantically chasing their enemies with watermelon knives slowed down and left as quietly as possible.

In Twilight Street, it is absolutely forbidden to provoke Qianjie; this is a generally accepted unspoken rule.

Even gang leaders are no exception.

but.

"Qian Jie, why don't you go back for dinner?" A beautiful green-haired girl, with a gentle and bright smile, walked towards Qian Jie, whom everyone feared, and pulled out a chair to sit opposite him.

There was no fear; it was very natural and familiar.

Who exactly is that woman?
