Two days later, Fang Zheng and the girls around him left Haiyuan City and went to a nearby city to have some fun. As for where they were going... of course, it was the amusement park.
Fang Zheng is experienced in this regard. The best place to take a large group of people to play is still the amusement park. After all, the amusement park is relatively closed, and there is no need to worry about getting lost. In addition, all kinds of facilities are obvious, and it is easy to gather people. Everyone can play whatever they want, and the amusement park has all kinds of environments.
If you're in the mood, then the Ferris wheel, haunted house, empty garden maze, etc. can all be used as... ahem, just let you know.
So after arriving at the amusement park, everyone immediately disbanded and formed their own teams to play.
Kiana and Raiden Mei ran away, while Bronya took Seele, Rosaria and Lilia to play together. On Fangzheng's side, Lala was with Kotegawa Yui and Sairenji Haruna, Mikan formed a team with Eve, An, Lapis and others, and Nana took Kurosaki Meia to play.
So it finally became...
"Aren't you going with us?"
Looking at Meng Meng beside him, Fang Zheng was speechless for a while, while the latter blinked with a smile.
"Of course, we can't leave you alone, Mr. Yuuki. After all, your body is not well yet."
"I told you it's just a minor injury."
Fang Zheng waved his hands helplessly. His biggest headache now was being alone with Meng Meng. After all, she might bring up her paradise plan again at any time. In this respect, Fang Zheng felt that Meng Meng was just like the real estate salesmen he met before he traveled through time. She would not miss any opportunity and would catch any gap to give you a bunch of exaggerated rhetoric. If you nodded carelessly, you would be in big trouble.
You see, just like now...
"I never thought that Mr. Yuuki likes the type of person like Miss Bronya..."
"Please stop for a moment."
Fang Zheng hurriedly interrupted Meng Meng's words and said, "We may be familiar with each other, but if you talk nonsense, I will still sue you for defamation, okay?"
"Bronya is indeed a good kid, but I didn't say I like her."
"Eh? But weren't you injured because of her, Mr. Yuuki?"
Mengmeng stared at Fangzheng's right hand, causing the latter to roll his eyes helplessly.
"This is because we encountered an unexpectedly strong enemy in the Quantum Ocean, so..."
"But I heard from Miss Bronya that you, Mr. Yuuki, took the initiative to stand in front of the enemy and let them go first in order to protect them."
“…”
Bronya, why do you always expose everything?
However, there are indeed not many people who can keep their words secret in front of Mengmeng.
"Okay, I admit there was a small mistake, but it was purely due to my own carelessness."
Fang Zheng spread his hands helplessly. Meng Meng had said this, so Fang Zheng had nothing else to say, so he could only be honest. Otherwise, if Meng Meng really thought that he had some feelings for Bronya, and then made a note of it in the little paradise notebook in his heart, then Fang Zheng would be in real trouble.
"main idea?"
"That's right. Let's put it this way. The me now... strictly speaking, can only be considered a part of me."
"???"
Hearing this, Mengmeng tilted her head and looked at him in confusion.
"You should have heard from Xiao Hei that the me standing here now is not actually my complete self. Let me put it this way, if I were to restore my true form, even if a nuclear bomb exploded in front of me, I wouldn't even blink an eyelid. But..."
Having said that, Fang Zheng spread out his hands and waved them towards Meng Meng.
"My body is just that of an ordinary human now, so I ignored this problem when I was in the middle of a fight. It's the same for you Devilukes, right? You are used to your usual strength, so if something happens and your strength is greatly reduced, you will act according to your original feelings."
"I see."
Hearing this, Mengmeng nodded - this made Fang Zheng feel relieved, it seemed that Mengmeng could still understand what people said. However, the next moment, the words that came out of Mengmeng's mouth almost made Fang Zheng vomit blood.
"So this means that Mr. Yuki does need some help now, right?"
“…Is that what I meant?”
Fang Zheng suddenly realized that discussing this issue with Meng Meng was a mistake in itself.
"yes!"
However, Mengmeng stared at Fang Zheng with shining eyes and nodded vigorously.
"Mr. Yuki, you said it yourself. You are not as strong as you used to be. This means you need some help!"
“…”
Fang Zheng discovered that Meng Meng was much more difficult to deal with than Xiao Hei. She could twist the same sentence into a completely different meaning, and you couldn't say she was wrong.
"Can……"
However, before Fang Zheng could open his mouth, Meng Meng stretched out a finger with a serious expression and put it to his mouth to stop him from speaking.
"Mr. Yuki, do you know how worried everyone is about your injury this time? It's not just worry, it's because we can't do anything to help, neither can I, nor onee-sama. Although I can understand that Mr. Yuki doesn't want us to face danger, but in such a strange world, we can only rely on you, Mr. Yuki. If something happens to you, we really don't know what to do."
“…”
Hearing Meng Meng's words, Fang Zheng curled his lips. He had to say... Meng Meng's words really made sense. He also ignored the fact that he didn't come through alone this time, and there were a lot of people around him to take care of.
"Of course, I also know that it is not your style to be cautious, Mr. Yuki, but if we can help, please speak up. At least... this is better than staying behind and worrying."
"Well, I was wrong this time."
Fang Zheng sighed helplessly, acknowledging Meng Meng's words. Indeed, he was everyone's only hope to return to their own world. If he made himself too miserable, it would indeed be worrying. Not to mention that the girls around him had a good relationship with him...
"Well, as an apology, please go and relax with me, Mr. Yuuki."
At this moment, Mengmeng also stretched out her hand with a smile, hugged Fangzheng's left arm, raised her head and stared at him.
"We still have a lot of time to enjoy it."
Since Mengmeng said so, Fang Zheng had no choice but to go along with her.
Just as Fang Zheng, Meng Meng and others began to enjoy a rare peaceful holiday, in a hidden corner of Tianqiong City, Youlan Dell encountered big trouble.
"…What on earth is the Archbishop thinking?"
Sitting in the chair, looking at the communicator in front of him, Youlan Dell was confused. Strictly speaking, Youlan Dell's status was a bit awkward now. Since Theresa had turned back to the headquarters, they had lost contact with Bishop Otto. Originally, Bishop Otto's order to them was to attack Haiyuan City, then occupy it and wait for his follow-up orders.
But in the end, Haiyuan City was not taken, and Yulan Dell and other members of the Immortal Blade had to retreat to the secret base in Tiankong City, and then used the communication station here to report to Archbishop Otto and wait for his next instructions.
However...the instructions never appeared.
Although Youlan Dell had heard rumors that Bishop Otto committed suicide, she did not believe them. After all, Youlan Dell knew that Otto was hiding many secrets, and other people might do the same. But it was absolutely impossible for Otto to shoot himself in the head with a pistol in his office.
So what is going on here?
Although she didn't know the situation, Youlan Dell had no other choice but to wait. Even though Destiny didn't issue a wanted notice for them, Youlan Dell was still a little hesitant about whether to go back. After all... although she knew that Otto was not a good person, she didn't think that Otto would die so easily.
During the time she stayed in Sky City, Youlan Dell was not idle either. Because of the outbreak of Honkai caused by the awakening of the Herrscher of the Void, Sky City was also attacked by Honkai beasts. Youlan Dell also secretly went with her Valkyrie team to help eliminate some Honkai beasts to relieve the pressure on Sky City.
However, during this process, Youlan Dell discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with Shencheng Medicine in Tianqiong City.
Yulandel couldn't explain exactly what was going on, but she always felt that it was a bit strange that these Honkai beasts attacked Sky City, so she sent her partner Rita to investigate.
“Crack.”
Just at this moment, the door opened and a maid walked in.
"I'm back, Lord Yulandel."
"Rita."
Seeing his deputy coming back, Youlan Dell also turned his gaze away from the communicator and looked at Rita.
"How about it?"
"Sure enough, there are some problems within Shencheng Pharmaceutical."
As she spoke, Rita transmitted the intelligence information in her hand to Yulan Dell. He took the information, looked at it carefully, and then frowned.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Rita nodded.
"Shencheng Pharmaceuticals received the anti-Houkai vaccines provided by Tianming, but these vaccines are nowhere to be found..."
"Sure enough, the situation this time doesn't look that simple."
Youlan Dell stared at the report in front of him with a serious face and nodded his finger. Shencheng Pharmaceutical is a partner of Tianming, which Youlan Dell knows. They cooperate with Tianming to inject anti-collapse vaccines to citizens for free, which is also a common process. But according to Rita's investigation, Shencheng Pharmaceutical did not distribute and inject the vaccines as soon as they were received, but transferred them...?
“…find a confidential route and inform the Destiny Headquarters of this matter.”
"Is this okay?"
Hearing Youlan Dell's answer, Rita blinked her eyes. After all, the current status of their Immortal Blade team was a bit awkward. In any case, Theresa was in power at the moment, and logically speaking, they should work for Theresa instead of continuing to follow Otto, whose life or death was unknown.
But Youlan Dell still does this...
"That's our business, but no matter what, we can't let the people of Sky City be in danger."
As he spoke, Youlan Dell stood up.
“We just have to do what we can do.”
