"...Only one." Ifrit gritted his teeth when he heard that. Seeing so many people staring at him, it seemed that he could not refuse.

"But, I didn't even tell Chen Qi about this. From the beginning to the end, besides me, only one other guy knew about it."

"Do you really want me to tell you? I'm warning you, if you tell anyone about this, you can't take it back."

"..."

It's true, after being reminded in such a sinister way by the cheerful Ifrit, the group hesitated for a moment, and after looking at each other, no one dared to ask.

"…Ifrit."

However, at this moment, a gentle male voice suddenly sounded, and Chen Qi slowly came to Ifrit's front, looked directly into her eyes that were not so indignant at the moment, and said gently and a little apologetically:

"I'm sorry. I've done a lot of things that have let you down. But I don't want to lose you, so I'm confessing my mistakes to you now."

"No matter what you think, even if you hate me now, I am truly unreserved towards you."

"So, if there is anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me and I will accept it."

"...Tsk, I just don't like the way you say things like this in such a serious manner."

After being stunned for a moment, Ifrit couldn't help but feel a little helpless. She and Chen Qi had done everything before, so apart from feeling a little embarrassed, she didn't have any special emotions at the moment.

Finally, after sighing slowly, Ifrit looked at Chen Qi in front of him and spent a long while sorting out his feelings before finally pouring out the secret that had been hidden deep in his heart.

"As for why I was so resistant... Actually, I didn't really feel that awkward. Maybe I did at first, but if you put it that way, I wouldn't be that resistant."

"But... the reason why I reacted so strongly just now is actually because I suffered this loss in the past."

As he spoke, Ifrit pointed at Chen Qi's nose and asked him, "Chen Qi, do you remember the day you proposed to me?"

"Of course I remember. That day was 5 o'clock in the evening on May 20th. I deliberately calculated your time to get off work." Upon hearing that, Chen Qi immediately answered the date that he would never forget.

"…I remember it quite clearly. I hope you can remember your wedding anniversary as clearly as I do."

Ifrit's lips curled up slightly as if she was a little happy that Chen Qi could remember that day so clearly, but she quickly suppressed her smile and continued:

"That day, after you proposed to me, I wonder if you still remember that you suddenly felt weak and sleepy for a while."

"Um……"

Chen Qi couldn't help but think about it carefully after hearing this. Then, under the gaze of Ifrit and others, after a long time, he said uncertainly:

"I didn't really take it seriously, but now that you mention it... I did seem to be more sleepy than usual that day."

"I thought I was just too exhausted from the impromptu party after the proposal, so I didn't take it seriously... What do you mean?"

"That's what I meant, you piece of wood." Ifrit looked at Chen Qi's belated expression and bared his teeth in anger again, but he still suppressed his anger and said word by word:

"You know what? I was treated the same as Officer Chen..."

"..."

For a moment, Ifrit's words plunged the scene into silence again. It was as if the pause button had been pressed on the group of people, and everything stopped at this moment.

Chen, the treatment of Officer Chen, that means...

On the day Chen Qi proposed to her, Ifrit was tied to a chair in front of her, watching other women give the unconscious Chen Qi to—

"It's a murder that breaks one's heart..." The doctor couldn't help but smack his lips when he heard it, and said softly.

"...Who is it?" At this moment, Kal'tsit couldn't help but react immediately and asked. At this moment, Chen Qi had already lost his mind, and only she had a strong ability to accept and continued to ask.

"Who else could it be? In our Rhodes Island, who has the ability to beat me so hard that I can't fight back?" Ifrit couldn't help but get furious when she heard that. Although she didn't point out anyone in particular, her eyes were already locked on one person.

For a moment, there was silence, and everyone's eyes were looking in the same direction, at the same person - the shy Custer girl with long Custer ears who had just escaped from her shame.

For a moment, the calm before the storm filled the air above the room, lingering...

Chapter 261: Kal'tsit thinks Amiya needs education

"Huh? Huh? Everyone...why are you all looking at me?"

However, the innocent little rabbit was unaware of the shocked and suspicious looks from the others. She had just gotten out of the shame of the "family bucket" and did not hear Ifrit's shocking speech clearly.

She just felt that the expressions in the eyes of the people around her when they looked at her were gradually changing, from doubt in the beginning, to horror, and finally, even disbelief.

What's going on?

"Ah, Amiya?!"

At this moment, even Kal'tsit could not remain calm. After hearing what Ifrit said in person and the silent and determined look in her eyes, Kal'tsit could not help but exclaimed.

"Hey? Kai, Doctor Kelsey?"

Amiya was startled when Kal'tsit suddenly called her name. What happened? Did she do something strange?

"No, it's impossible! Amiya is so well behaved! How could she possibly do something like that—"

However, Kal'tsit herself didn't know how much doubt she had in her voice as she spoke to Ifrit. At this moment, this doctor who had always been able to remain objective and calm was completely unable to remain calm when it came to the matter of one of her closest people.

After all, for Kal'tsit, this was something that shocked her for the entire year.

This innocent little rabbit, whom she personally taught and grew up under her nose, to whom she had put so much effort and wholeheartedly cultivated to become a good and pure person, actually, actually did something that even she, an immortal, could not even imagine!

What happened?! Did she die early or something? Has she changed so much?

Who is it! Who is the one who polluted the pure heart of my innocent little rabbit? Stand up for me! I promise not to use Mon3tr!

"No matter how innocent you are now, you will be another person when you grow up."

Ifrit muttered something with some disdain when he heard that, but after being glared at by Kal'tsit, he shrank his head and dared not say anything more.

But after a while, Ifrit noticed the expression of Chen Qi who was still in a dazed state.

"…Hey, are you okay?"

"..." However, even after Ifrit called out, Chen Qi still hadn't come back to his senses. Ifrit looked carefully at Chen Qi's eyes and found that he could clearly see his own figure.

"...What's wrong with him?" At this moment, the people who came down from the jury came to the two of them. Shuangxing, who was standing by, didn't know Chen Qi very well. It was the first time she saw Chen Qi so dazed, so she couldn't help but ask with a little concern.

"Nothing, he just had a 'brain freeze'."

However, on the other hand, the members of Noah's team seemed to have known about Chen Qi's "symptom" for a long time. Looking at Chen Qi's dull expression, Ifrit on the side said with a look of helplessness on his face.

"It happens sometimes. His brain can't handle the shock and he becomes like a fool... As expected, the smarter a person is, the more likely they are to lose their minds at times like this, right?"

“…Come to think of it, when Chen Qi woke up in Kazdel, he seemed to be like this too. I thought he was frightened silly.”

After Ifrit's explanation, Frost Star was immediately relieved. She couldn't help but think of the time at the border of Kazdel. When they woke up and saw the aftermath of the incident, Chen Qi also looked so bewildered.

For a moment, I couldn't help but find it a bit amusing. Having seen Chen Qi's confident look in command of everything, I found it particularly amusing to see him in this dazed state as he was completely thrown out of the plan and dealt a heavy blow.

"But now is not the time for him to be in a daze."

Although Ifrit also felt that it was rare to see Chen Qi's expression like this, she was talking about this matter now just to make Chen Qi accept this fact. This was not the time to escape, which was shameful but useful. Chen Qi had to know how to make a decision in this regard.

"Snap, snap, snap, snap!"

"Hey! Little fool! Wake up!"

I only saw Ifrit put his hands on Chen Qi's cheeks, and suddenly slapped them extremely quickly, which completely brought Chen Qi's scattered spirit back to normal.

"Wuwuwu?! Stop filming, stop filming! Wake up!"

However, when Chen Qi regained consciousness, he stopped Ifrit's actions. However, after Chen Qi broke free from the dead machine, he was silent for a while, and finally asked Ifrit in an unknown mood:

"You mean... after I proposed to you, it was Sister Amiya..."

"Yeah." Ifrit nodded.

"...or in front of you?" Chen Qi's mouth twitched and he continued to ask.

"Otherwise I wouldn't know." Ifrit's expression twisted slightly when he heard that. He glanced at the other people who just knew about this matter and said lightly.

"...How long have you been watching?" Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Chen Qi's tone was a little bit amusing.

"I watched it all. I stared at him the whole night until my eyes turned red. That guy even muted my voice."

"……I want to die."

Finally, the last glimmer of fantasy was completely shattered. Chen Qi covered his face with his hands and knelt on the ground as if he was burned out. Under the bleak autumn wind, the young commander seemed so depressed.

However, at this moment, none of the women around came to comfort Chen Qi. After learning the truth of the past from Ifrit, everyone's perception of Chen Qi at this moment had some changes.

...Although Chen Qi cannot be blamed for this matter, he is also closely related to it.

She was actually attacked by someone who could be considered her own sister... If you told them how honest Chen Qi and Amiya were in normal times, they would never believe it.

"...I've always thought your relationship was a little strange, but I didn't know what it was. So this is what's going on."

Skadi on the side couldn't help but speak up. Although Skadi had left Rhodes Island for a while when Chen Qi proposed to Ifrit, she had noticed it but didn't take it to heart.

After all, it's not just Chen Qi, Skadi and the others are also very confident in Amiya. After all, Chen Qi and Amiya can be said to have a relationship like real siblings.

In addition, Amiya led Rhodes Island through almost the darkest period of its history. Everyone admired Amiya's persistence and perseverance. How could they think that Amiya was a threat?

However, now think about it... Although Chen Qi and Amiya can indeed be said to have a relationship like siblings, in terms of blood relationship, Amiya and Chen Qi are both artificially born [Chimera], but Amiya is obviously not a fusion of Kal'tsit and the Doctor's DNA.

So, strictly speaking, Amiya and Chen Qi have no blood relationship.

Amiya was just doing in advance what Tallulah was doing now.

...No wonder Ifrit was so resistant at the beginning. This kind of thing would be fine if it happened once in person, but now it happened a second time. Anyone would be furious.

After hearing what Ifrit said, some of those who had been half-accepting of Chen Qi's desire to accept Tallulah began to waver.

Chen Qi... Could it be that he is really someone who likes this tune?

However, on the other side, Kal'tsit came down from the height early and came in front of Amiya. After carefully scanning Amiya with a subtle and slightly scary look, she took a deep breath and said to Amiya:

"Amiya, come with me. I think I need to teach you again."

"Hey? Go to class?"

Amiya was a little surprised when she heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Are you not going to care about Chen Qi's matter?"

"Never mind. I think you have a bigger problem now." Kal'tsit pulled Amiya's hand away without saying anything, saying:

"I want to test the index of the repressed side hidden deep inside you. Come with me and take a psychological test."

"Huh? Why, Dr. Kal'tsit!"

At this moment, no one paid attention to Amiya being dragged away. This farce seemed to have come to an end, but it seemed that it would continue for a while longer...

It really is, cause for celebration, cause for celebration (tea).

Chapter 262: Chen Qi wants comfort

The farce had indeed come to an end for the time being. Although the ending of this incident was a bit strange, everyone in Rhodes Island could no longer discuss this matter at this moment, so they could only choose to keep silent about it.

Of course, it was simply because Kal'tsit didn't have time to take care of these things right now. During this period of time, she would probably conduct a comprehensive check on Amiya's physical and mental health, so that the future events would repeat themselves now.

Kal'tsit didn't know what would happen in the future. It was because she and the Doctor died early that Amiya, who had lost her support, had to become so "utilitarian" that she even resorted to such naked "political diplomacy" to keep Chen Qi.

Or rather, as time went by, Amiya's [Emotion Absorption] absorbed too many negative emotions, which affected her heart and made her no longer pure and kind. She became a bad sister who even attacked the person who was like her own brother...

No matter what the result is, it is not what Kal'tsit wants to see. She really wants to bring Amiya and Chen Qi together. After all, the two are not strictly related by blood, and Chen Qi is now a special [Chimera]. Maybe he can take this opportunity to help Amiya break free from the shackles of the [Chimera] and thus prolong Amiya's life.

However, this does not mean that Kal'tsit will agree to Amiya using such a murderous and despicable method to "possess" Chen Qi!

This is absolutely not allowed! Rhodes Island will never use such "vulgar" "political tactics"! And the person involved is someone they trust!

This kind of thinking must be corrected! Even if Amiya doesn't have this awareness yet, we must hurry up and instill this idea into her brain!

Kal'tsit first told Amiya that dating was allowed, but Rhodes Island must never engage in those dirty behaviors of politicians!

On the other hand, Chen Qi's fate was not much different from Amiya's. After a debate, although everyone kept silent about the matter, a strange atmosphere permeated among everyone.

These girls who were usually around Chen Qi seemed to have spoken with one voice, and their attitude towards Chen Qi suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

The little girls who were usually very obedient now ignored Chen Qi and even bared their teeth at him occasionally, as if they were possessed by Ifrit.

Chen Qi also understood that it was obviously what Ifrit said that made these girls feel "betrayed". Although Chen Qi himself felt very wronged, he really couldn't say anything.

After all, he really didn't know.

However, now that these girls are angry, he has to bear it. After all, it is impossible for him to activate the time shuttle device again at this time and call the future sister Amiya over to ask her about it, right?

This will cause a big fuss, it will really cause a big fuss. And the Future Ark still needs Amiya to stabilize the situation temporarily. After all, he is not there now. If Amiya comes again, the Future Ark will really be leaderless.
