"Thank you for your hospitality, Doctor. I am very pleased with this 'gift'."

The doctor said in a deep voice, "Are you satisfied now?"

"Of course, I'm very satisfied," Han Fei said with a smile. "Since we have nothing else to do, let's wait a little longer."

The doctor said coldly, "What are you waiting for?"

"Wait until the battle over there is over."

Han Fei shrugged. "You should know when it'll end over there, right?"

The doctor fell silent.

Through PRTS, she controls the entire Rhodes Island entity and can naturally "see" the situation on Theresa's side.

This is why, in the original storyline, she was able to appear precisely in front of Theresa at the right moment to see her one last time.

Judging from the plot, if the Doctor had been even a step slower, Theresa would not have erased her memory.

Because Theresa is truly on her last legs, she won't last much longer before she dies.

Han Fei then asked, "So, is there any CCTV footage to check?"

"I don't want to see that," the doctor interrupted.

"also."

Han Fei shrugged, he could understand.

It's normal not to want to watch the grueling work the PhD student did.

In reality, making this decision was not easy; if it were easy, she wouldn't have been tormented to the point of death.

Even now, after confirming the deactivation of the entire ship's defense system, her body is still trembling slightly.

This is undoubtedly a betrayal.

But for the sake of the previous civilization, she had no choice but to accept it.

Han Fei noticed her exhaustion and raised an eyebrow, saying, "How about you lean on my shoulder for a while? Although we are both human, to be honest, you have quite a burden on your shoulders. You need to vent, otherwise I feel like you're going to be crushed."

Of course, Han Fei also knew that in a little while, she would be free of burdens.

At least, it's gone for the time being.

But even now, she is still somewhat tormented.

The doctor was silent for a moment, and after a few breaths, she still quietly walked to Han Fei's side, rested her forehead on his arm, and whispered, "Don't you care at all?"

"Uh……"

This really stumped Han Fei.

Why should a human from Earth care about pre-existing civilizations? He didn't even experience them.

After a brief moment of thought, he decided to tell the truth: "I don't care."

This surprised the doctor, who was about to speak instinctively.

Before she could even look up, she heard Han Fei say, "To be honest, it's not that I'm cold-blooded, but rather that our times are different."

"I didn't experience the pre-civilization period; all the records about those things I saw were in documents."

"So, when you ask me if I care or not, I can only answer you that I don't care."

"I care more about Terra's 'animal friends' than the previous civilization."

"So that's it."

The doctor stopped looking up, then shifted his weight onto Han Fei's arm and said softly:

“It’s good to know nothing; sometimes it’s a blessing in disguise.”

Volume 1: Chapter 159 It Doesn't Work

Upon hearing this, Han Fei's expression became somewhat subtle.

There's nothing inherently wrong with this statement; it's quite fitting for the occasion.

But Han Fei knew the plot!

Ignorance is bliss? My friend, you're about to enjoy that bliss too!

The doctor noticed the change in Han Fei's expression, and a hint of something inexplicable appeared in his usually cool voice:

"What's that expression on your face?"

Han Fei quickly composed himself and coughed lightly, saying, "Cough, it's nothing."

"A weird guy."

The doctor muttered something but didn't press the matter.

She could tell that this man didn't seem like a decent person.

At the very least, their style of doing things is extremely unpredictable and hard to fathom.

One moment he can utter profound words like "witnessing the end and the new life," and the next he can be obsessed with peeking at her face.

This is not the kind of thinking logic a normal person should have; it's too unconventional.

Dealing with him would be quite painful for someone who can't get used to his style.

Fortunately, the doctor is a seasoned veteran who has seen it all, and he can even chat and laugh with a strange guy like Han Fei.

Well, it wasn't exactly a lively conversation, but I still didn't mind talking to Han Fei, even though he was a rather strange man.

After all, this was the first living human she had ever met in Terra.

Being able to talk to someone of the same kind, even a very strange one, brought some comfort to the doctor's lonely heart.

—At least on this land, she is not the only one.

Just as the doctor was lost in his own thoughts, Han Fei's voice rang out again from the central control room.

"Hakibo, I have a question for you."

This sound pulled the doctor back to reality. She glanced at Han Fei instinctively, her voice filled with confusion: "Haki?"

"It's just a name, don't worry about it."

Han Fei shrugged nonchalantly and said, "So, I have a question for you, and you have to answer me truthfully."

Upon hearing this, the doctor temporarily suppressed his curiosity about the strange title and said, "Go on."

"If I bring Theresa back to life, will you be angry?" Han Fei asked.

"Save her?!"

The doctor unconsciously raised his voice a few decibels, then said seriously, "No."

This was the first time the doctor had spoken to Han Fei in such a serious tone. Even when she shut down the entire ship's defense system, her tone was not this serious, nor was it so uncompromising.

But this seriousness didn't last long. The next second, her voice dropped, as if falling into a deep abyss, filled with indescribable weariness and sadness:

"Theresia must die."

The doctor didn't explain much; she wasn't even willing to talk about it further.

Han Fei was well aware of the parts she was unwilling to elaborate on.

At that time, the Doctor was still thinking about pushing forward the Originium Project, but Theresa would not want to see all of that happen, and the other members of the Tower of Babel would follow in Theresa's footsteps.

That's why the Doctor chose to sell Theresa.

She was the one who let the shrouded assassins in.

At this moment, Remuel's somewhat lively, yet slightly confused voice rang out:

"Huh? Wait a minute, my brain isn't working properly."

Remuel scratched her head, looking at the Doctor and Han Fei with a puzzled expression. "Isn't Theresa the leader of the Tower of Babel, the Demon King of Kazdel? And you, you're also a high-ranking member of the Tower of Babel, right? Why are you..."

"Xiao Le".

Remien tugged at her sister's arm and whispered, "Stop talking."

"Oh……"

Remuel shut up, but the look in her eyes as she looked at the Doctor was still complicated.

At 17, Remuel was not as experienced as he would be in later generations.

The Doctor took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said, "In short, Theresa must die. If she doesn't die, the civil war in Kazdel will not end."

And my plan could not proceed...

Even without Han Fei, who had seen the plot, everyone else could see how complicated the Doctor's feelings were at that moment.

Even though she was wearing a hood, obscuring her face.

Ines was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

As a mercenary whose stance leans towards Theresa, Ines never imagined that the "Ghost of Babel" would betray the Demon King.

Han Fei coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention, and then said, "Well then, in short, don't spread what happened here today."

As he spoke, he was thinking to himself: You think you can just refuse to save them like that?

If you don't save me, where else can I find fun?

Ideally, the person would be rescued and then taken to the Special Operations Unit.

That would be perfect.

However, this is a bit too idealistic.

We weren't that familiar with each other, so getting involved with the Special Operations Unit would definitely be a problem.

But if we don't rescue them, simply searching and then leaving isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just not fun anymore.

Of course, Han Fei didn't suffer any loss either; getting an injection doesn't cost any HAF coins.

With this in mind, Han Fei made up his mind.

Forget about this and that, let's save them first. What happens after they're saved is a problem for later.

So what if I die again?

Anyway, by the time he rescued them, Hakibo's memory had been erased, and Amiya had fainted.

The only one in danger is the old lynx.

"I see."

Texas answered crisply and decisively.

The reactions of the others were similar. Even Ines, bound by her oath, could not reveal the truth once Han Fei spoke.

Otherwise, it would be disloyalty.

"Thank you."

The doctor spoke softly, his eyes beneath his hood displaying a complex expression.

"You're welcome."

Han Fei waved his hand and said, "Let's check on Theresa's situation."

So, the doctor turned to look at the big screen.

Even though the doctor didn't want to face it, she knew that she had to go through this eventually.

So she looked at the big screen.

After a few breaths, the doctor spoke: "It's almost over."

"OK, then we should get going."

Han Fei stretched and invited, "Hakibo, come with us. At least it'll be safer."

Here we go again, with that strange title... The doctor glanced at Han Fei, feeling a little helpless. This man always manages to say something odd when the atmosphere is heavy.

The doctor adjusted his hood and silently walked to Han Fei's side.

She could sense a strong sense of disgust in the eyes of the "Sarkaz" girl in Han Fei's team as she looked at her.
