Chapter 53 The Mischievous Student W
Rhodes Island is peaceful as always today.
boom--
Oh, things might not be so peaceful.
A disheveled figure emerged from the smoke, rolled around on the bridge, then braced himself with one hand to steady himself, wiped the soot off his face, and continued to pull bombs from his pocket.
"W, stop right now!"
Amiya reached out to her from another direction.
"Amiya, stop wasting your breath on her and let me beat her down first!" A beautiful figure rushed out of the black mist, her chainsaw roaring.
"Oh, just you?"
W's lips curled into a mocking smile: "Reckless, foolish. If I still had my grenade launcher, you would be a pile of minced meat by now."
Huang instantly turned red, his powerful muscles suddenly tensing up, as if he could unleash an airburst at any moment.
Amiya couldn't stand by and watch them continue fighting, so she quickly stopped them: "Huang, stop! W, you too! Have you forgotten what Dr. Bai told you?"
"Ah..."
W lowered her eyes slightly. What instructions had that little guy given her? It was just that she... Sigh, never mind, she decided not to fight. It's all a mess, and Princess Theresa probably wouldn't like it.
She released the bomb from her hand and casually dusted off her clothes: "Alright, Amiya, I'll do you and that little guy a favor, as long as you don't..."
After a two-second silence, W's expression softened, and she let out a long sigh. She removed all the bombs from her body and tossed them aside: "Fine, forget I said anything. That's all. If you don't believe me, Amiya, come and touch them for yourself."
She smiled and generously spread her hands.
Amiya breathed a sigh of relief, shook her head and smiled, "No need, W, I believe you."
Seeing her change so drastically all of a sudden, Huang was a little confused. No, just a second ago she was a bomb-wielding monster, and now she's become so... uh, gentle?
what!
She shivered, shook her head, and banished the thought from her mind.
An illusion, it must be an illusion!
Amiya immediately beckoned the operators in blast suits to come forward and deal with W's improvised explosive device. She walked up to W, placed her hand on her chest, and sincerely said:
“W, Rhodes Island is safe, and everyone here can be trusted. You don’t need to do this.”
"..."
Rhodes Island, safe... W chewed on the two connected words, her eyes suddenly darkening, but in the blink of an eye, her expression brightened, and she nodded and smiled.
"Okay, Amiya, I'll do as you say. Can you show me around Rhodes Island? You know I haven't been back in a long time."
“Yes!” Amiya nodded vigorously.
Huang stood there blankly, feeling a gust of wind blow by. He scratched his head, realizing he was being ignored.
Thankfully, Amiya turned around in time and smiled sweetly at her, saying, "Thank you for your hard work this time, Huang."
"Hey, it's nothing. I'm free anyway, so I'll just treat it as extra practice!"
Huang gave her a thumbs up with great enthusiasm. The older sister's demeanor was incredibly reliable, as if she wasn't the one who had almost caused the red-hot plowing.
Amiya turned back and led W back into the ship.
..............
In front of an empty compartment inside the ship.
Kroos quickly stepped forward, pushed open the door, and with a haphazard display of etiquette, said with a beaming smile, "Dr. Bai, please come in. This room was specially chosen for you; it perfectly meets your requirements!"
Bai Yue's lips twitched as she looked at her with a "rip-off" expression, and she walked straight inside.
The cabin was spacious and empty. Apart from the walls reflecting a cold metallic luster and the bright white lights, there was not a single piece of equipment or furniture in sight.
Bai Yue stared at the unfinished apartment, speechless for a moment. She turned back and said quietly, "Kroos, are you trying to mess with me because I'm from the East? I asked you to find a place with a decent environment, and you gave me a bare-bones apartment?"
Kroos remained completely unfazed. With a quick glance, she launched into her long-winded explanation:
"Oh, how could that be? It's just that we respect you. Those secondhand places are simply not worthy of your status as a medical luminary. Look how spacious this place is! With just a little renovation, hehe..."
Bai Yue smirked: "It would be best to hire you for the renovation, wouldn't it?"
"You have a keen eye!" Kroos patted her chest. "As Rhodes Island's chief engineer, it's my duty to help the island's operators!"
"How much?" Bai Yue asked expressionlessly.
Kroos, with a righteous and upright expression, waved her hand and said, "Why talk about money? I'm just trying to be helpful. But... forget about the labor costs, but you should still pay for the materials..."
..............
W followed closely behind Amiya, listening to her describe the changes that had taken place in various parts of Rhodes Island over the years. Her eyes would occasionally wander, and she would look at some familiar places with a touch of sadness.
Here, there, are places Her Highness Theresa once walked.
Her fingertips traced the cold metal wall, and for a fleeting moment, she perceived the biting chill as a comforting warmth—a warmth from the past...
Suddenly, a commotion broke out.
Her gaze fell upon the cabin not far away, and she tilted her head to listen.
"Kroos, you really think I'm some kind of Easterner, huh? You think I can't tell that these materials cost 30% more than the market price?!"
"Waaaah! Stop hitting me! I was wrong! I'll give you a discount, okay?!"
Hearing this commotion, Amira sighed and rubbed her forehead. "Kroos, Kroos, people have just arrived on the island, can't you put on a little more airs?"
W quietly crept to the door, where the half-open door made it easy for her to see what was inside.
Seeing Bai Yue pinching Kroos's cheeks, she smiled, tiptoed in, and like a little girl, covered his eyes from behind, breathing into his ear:
"Guess who I am?"
Bai Yue released Kroos's face, leaned back slightly, and tried to break free from her grasp.
But W didn't flinch or dodge; instead, she smiled and pulled him into her embrace.
Bai Yue felt the soft touch squeezing the back of her head and subconsciously rubbed against it a couple of times. To be honest, the Sarkaz girl was much more talented than the Sarkaz in this regard.
I'd like to specifically mention my good brother, Ah Neng!
"Heh, you little pervert, have you guessed who I am yet?"
W's voice was very soft, gentle, and smiling, as if she were doing some kind of ASMR.
Bai Yue knew perfectly well that even without considering the succubus's perception, his own special skill of recognizing a woman by her scent allowed him to lock onto his target instantly.
Without further ado, he thought for a moment and said, "W, right?"
"No, guess again."
W's voice was a bit deeper, but the smile was still obvious.
What kind of play is this?
Bai Yue found it novel and happily played with her.
Amiya stood at the doorway, silently covering her eyes, but her gaze lingered through her fingers as she watched the two of them being all lovey-dovey. She felt both shy and dizzy.
First it was Officer Chen, then Officer Swire, then the Doctor, and now it's W!
Were they all poisoned?!
Chapter 54 First Mission
In a secluded corner.
Bai Yue and W sat side by side, their bodies very close together.
Bai Yue yawned softly, rubbed her face, and said listlessly, "Aren't you ready yet? It's just a dream anyway, why do you need to think about it for so many days?"
W lightly touched the ground with his toes, stunned and speechless, then suddenly laughed and said, "Don't be impatient, cute little guy, it'll be soon. I'll come to find you soon."
"Yeah, that's okay."
Bai Yue nodded, her interest piqued: "Then you'd better hurry. I recently developed a new ability that can make dreams more realistic, even comparable to reality. I'll let you experience it for yourself when the time comes."
W's eyes lit up, and she happily accepted the suggestion: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
Her voice was lively, but it also carried a subtle, undeniable air of decadence and world-weariness, like a fleeting glance before death, as if she were preparing for her own demise.
Bai Yue couldn't quite understand her thought process, so she didn't pay attention to this oddity.
He flared his nostrils and looked up at the ventilation duct outlet above his head.
Two delicate white hands quietly moved aside the protective netting, revealing an adorable head that gave him a silent greeting.
It’s red.
Bai Yue tilted her head and tapped W's head: "Someone's here to see me, why don't you leave for a bit?"
W followed his gaze and looked up, just in time to see Red preparing to jump down. He chuckled and said, "Oh, it's her. Looks like Kal'tsit needs to talk to you. Alright, little one, I'll head out first and won't disturb your work any longer."
Seeing W stand up gracefully, Bai Yue tugged at her arm, and when she turned around in confusion, she said:
“I’ll set up a sanatorium in the cabin we just left. If I come to Rhodes Island in the future, I’ll most likely be there. You can come anytime, I won’t mind. Or you can look after it for me when I’m not around.”
W paused for a moment, suddenly feeling a stinging sensation in her eyes. She instinctively wanted to blurt out something to cover her vulnerability, but then she looked at his unpretentious face and those beautiful pink eyes...
She chuckled softly, forcibly controlling herself to speak normally:
"Great, I'm free of worries right now, and I have plenty of time."
W left, but her silhouette seemed more agile, and her fingers were restless, making small, trembling movements as if she were a little anxious.
Hong jumped down from the ventilation duct, hugged Bai Yue without hesitation, buried her head in his neck, and took a deep breath.
Bai Yue looked helpless. This silly dog is still outside!
But there's no way around it, you have to spoil a silly dog.
He patted Hong on the back: "Okay, stop fooling around. What do you need me for?"
Red's ears twitched, and a muffled voice came from her mouth: "Kal'tsit, have Red come to you. She says she needs you for something."
"Is there something you need me to do?" Bai Yue was a little confused. What could this old man possibly need her to do?
Ten minutes later, in Kal'tsit's office.
Bai Yue sat in the chair, looking at the report in her hand, completely shocked.
"This...this can't be right, how could it be? Could it be that you made a mistake in the test?"
Bai Yue put down the report and looked at Kal'tsit with a look full of doubt.
This is unbelievable! How could there be absolutely no Originium in my body? Previous tests didn't show this at all.
Kal'tsit rested her chin on her hands, her face still taut: "I have the same doubts about this, so I retested your remaining sample, and the answer remains the same."
"Operator White, as an excellent doctor, you should know what this means, right?"
Bai Yue frowned slightly: "Are you threatening me?"
Kal'tsit shook her head: "I won't make a fuss about this. It doesn't align with Rhodes Island's principles. Your real file has been sealed away by me. At Rhodes Island, only I, the Doctor, and Amiya have access to it. Can you feel more at ease now?"
Bai Yue blinked, then smiled and said, "Of course, I believe in your medical ethics, and I also believe in the Doctor and Amiya."
Then he hesitated for a moment and said, "So... you called me here just for this? You don't think I'd hold a grudge against you, do you?"
Whether you can do it or not is up to you.
Kal'tsit's expression remained unchanged as she reached out and pulled out a document from the side: "However, I do have a favor to ask of you, but whether you accept it is up to you. I'm not forcing you."
Bai Yue raised an eyebrow slightly. To be honest, he was the type of person who responded better to gentle persuasion than force, and he was quite satisfied with Old Deng's attitude. Therefore:
"Then I'll take a look first."
He took the document and skimmed through it: "The branch city that broke away from Chernobog is advancing towards Lungmen... A reconnaissance team has been dispatched... A large number of Originium crystal clusters... Suspected Reunion Movement cadres have been spotted..."
?
Bai Yue looked up from the documents, her expression tense: "Dr. Kal'tsit, although combat support is not a problem for me, do you really think I'm immune to Originium?"
“Yes.” Kal’tsit nodded in confirmation.
