On how PhDs become human evil

"After being transferred to the Guard Bureau, I had more time to interact with you, but how should I put it, once I got to the Guard Bureau, I became a little afraid of interacting with you. I can't really explain why, but I just wanted to avoid you as much as possible. To be honest, when you said you wanted to move into my house, I was scared half to death and couldn't sleep well at night... Um, Chen, why are you looking at me like that? That look, like you're looking at a rare animal, is making me feel uneasy."

With a slight upturn of his lips, Chen smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I finally realize I'm not the only one making foolish mistakes."

"what?"

"Speaking of which, Bai Jie, I have a suggestion for you, I don't know if you would agree."

"A proposal? What proposal?"

Reaching out and grasping Bai Jie's hand, Chen said something slightly shyly—

"Let's get married, Bai Jie."

P.S.: Update

P.S.: That's right, because I can't get Chen in the game, I'm going to make her my wife in the novel! Anyone have a problem with that, come out and challenge me!

I'm very sorry, there will only be three updates today (Chapter 35).

I was really busy today. I went to Jiangyin during the day to handle the expiration of my life insurance policy and didn't get home until almost 4 pm. Then I was in a bad mood because of Chen Chizi's shipwreck and didn't write anything. I finally managed to write two chapters, but then my family and neighbors dragged me out for barbecue. All sorts of things combined resulted in only three updates today. I'm really sorry.

Also, considering I've been updating at least four times a day except for today, please give me some recommendations and rewards, even if it's just a few words of encouragement, otherwise my stats are too terrible. Also, please help promote this book for the readers, people need to make a living, thank you.

Finally, let me talk about the arrangement of this volume: There are a few sweet scenes between the protagonist and Chen in the next volume, then the protagonist becomes the captain, K423 will be beaten up by Ai again, then it will be Yae Sakura and Xuanyuan Sword, and this volume will end after defeating Chi You. Then I plan to write about Tokyo Ravens in the next world. Readers with other opinions can say so in the comments.

There are so few posts here. Do you all really enjoy reading quietly?

I came up with a new cover just one day later. It has some content inside and should be approved around the 10th.

Okay, time for bed.

Section 36, Chapter 12: Kal'tsit will arrive on the battlefield in ten seconds.

"What did you say? Old Chen proposed to you?!"

Inside a coffee shop at the headquarters of Destiny, Hoshiguma stared in astonishment at Bai Jie sitting next to her.

She was wondering why Bai Jie had dragged her over so early in the morning, but she never expected it to be such a big deal!

"Shh—! Hoshiguma, keep your voice down! What if others find out?"

"It's alright, it's alright. Anyway, the only people here besides us are the manager, right? You won't tell anyone, will you, Kiryu?"

Hearing his name called, the white-haired woman behind the bar smiled and said, "Of course not. If people outside knew that our number one straight man was being forced into marriage, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause."

"rabbit!"

"Hehe, just kidding. So, the most crucial question—Dr. Fafnir, have you agreed?"

When this question was brought up, Bai Jie collapsed onto the bar as if all his strength had left him, saying, "Well, I just went along with the atmosphere and agreed. Then this morning, Chen went to find Otto excitedly to prepare the relevant matters. I guess I'll be able to see the marriage certificate certified by Otto when I get back."

"A whirlwind marriage... no, you can't really say that. Old Chen has liked you for a long time, so this kind of behavior is understandable," Hoshiguma said.

Upon hearing Hoshiguma's words, Bai Jie immediately sat up abruptly, exclaiming, "Chen has liked me for a long time? What's going on, Hoshiguma? I had no idea!"

"No way, I thought you already knew. This is practically an open secret in Lungmen. Everyone in the Guard Bureau knows about it except for the two of you involved." Looking at Bai Jie's blank expression, Hoshiguma knew that he probably had never realized Chen's feelings. She couldn't help but sigh deeply. "Seriously, what was wrong with Chen to fall for a slow-witted man like you?"

"Think about it carefully, Doctor. Why has Old Chen been paying so much attention to you? Why did he use force to move into your house? Why was he so furious when he heard you were leaving Lungmen? Isn't there only one answer?"

Hearing Hoshiguma's words, Hakuge fell silent.

That's true. At first, Bai Jie thought it was Chen's way of showing consideration for his subordinates, but now that he thinks about it, is it necessary to live together to show consideration for subordinates? Is it necessary to intentionally or unintentionally let him take advantage of you?

Bai Jie, you are a member of my Longmen, remember that.

How many times have I told you, don't drink alcohol at work?

Can't you cook just this once? I cook every single day.

Come with me on patrol, Bai Jie.

[Have you finished processing the documents? Don't be lazy!]

Do you want to betray Lungmen, Bai Jie?

Get out of here, go back to your Rhodes Island, and never come back.

......

Let's get married, Bai Jie.

As Chen's words to him flashed through his mind, Bai Jie clenched his hands involuntarily, and in Hoshiguma's eyes, the corners of Bai Jie's mouth showed a clear upward curve.

"I'm leaving now, Hoshiguma. This order is on my tab, Rabbit."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to meet my future wife." With a relieved tone, Bai Jie rushed out of the coffee shop.

Sitting at the bar, with Bai Jie's words still echoing in his ears, Hoshiguma couldn't help but laugh: "That kid, if he mistreats Old Chen, I won't let him off the hook. And Kiryu, hand over what you have."

"Huh? What do you need my personal terminal for?" Kiryu Hakuto asked, somewhat surprised.

Hoshiguma downed her drink in one gulp, wiped the remaining liquid from the corner of her mouth, and said, "Don't think I don't know. You're one of Kal'tsit's people, right? And now you're planning to tell Kal'tsit about this, aren't you? It's finally about to end the matter between Old Chen and the Doctor, and I don't want anyone interfering."

--------------------------

After rushing out of the coffee shop, Bai Jie went straight home.

"Huh? Brother, you're up so early today!" Kiana exclaimed in surprise as she ate breakfast in the restaurant.

"Kiana, has Chen returned?"

"That woman? No, why?"

"It's nothing. I'm going out now. I'll tell Rita I probably won't be back today."

Hearing that Chen hadn't returned yet, Bai Jie didn't linger at home any longer and rushed out again. But just as Bai Jie stepped out the door, Rita, who should have been at home, appeared before him, holding the rose-red scythe Aphrodite in her hand.

Rita gave a slight bow to Bai Jie and said, "I'm very sorry, Lord Fafnir, Lord Otto hopes you can stay at home today."

"What if I insist on going out?"

"Rita had no choice but to take action. Please, sir, don't put Rita in a difficult position—"

【Accel】、【Joker】【Cyclone】

Before Rita could finish speaking, Bai Jie preemptively struck, inserting three memory modules directly into his leg armor. In an instant, Bai Jie transformed into a gust of wind and rushed towards Rita.

With a soft sigh, Rita slashed out with her scythe in an instant, the crimson slash cutting through the air and blocking Bai Jie's path.

Unexpectedly, Bai Jie walked straight through the slash mark!

"phantom?"

"It's just a little trick using atmospheric refraction. Sorry, Rita, I don't have time to keep you company here."

In the completely opposite direction, Bai Jie revealed himself, a flash of red light on his legs, and another burst of super acceleration sent him soaring into the distance as a streak of red light.

Standing still, Rita put away her scythe and gazed in the direction Bai Jie had left, her deep eyes filled with unreadable thoughts.

"Rita, you look like a statue waiting for its husband to return home," Kiana suddenly poked her head out from inside the house and said.

Slowly turning around, Rita maintained her usual smile and said, "Miss Kiana, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. How does Rita look like a statue waiting for her husband?"

————————————————————————————

In Otto's office, sitting on the sofa, Otto looked at the large screen and suddenly exclaimed, "Although Rita wasn't serious, you really have some skills to fool her, Doctor."

"What are you up to now, Otto?" Bai Jie, who had appeared in the office unnoticed, said irritably. "Chen came here, right? Where did she go?"

Turning around, Otto said quite frankly, "She went to Dr. Kal'tsit's place with the marriage application that I printed out myself. According to her, she's going to have a good talk with Dr. Kal'tsit."

Chen, did you go to see Kal'tsit?

"Holy crap, we're doomed!"

Others might not know, but Bai Jie did. Those two seemed to be natural enemies, always clashing whenever they met! They practically treated each other like their father's killer!

Thinking of this, Bai Jie didn't even bother to greet Otto and rushed off to the medical department.

After Bai Jie left, Otto was silent for a while, then pressed a button on his hand and said, "Notify Theresa of the Far East Branch that Himeko Murata has been removed from her position as captain of the Hyperion due to her repeated bad records, and that a new captain will arrive in a few days."

P.S.: Update

P.S.: I had a dream yesterday that I got Chen, SilverAsh, Exusiai, and Skadi in a single 10-pull. If only that were real!

P.S.: The new cover has been approved, and there's some substance inside. By the way, why hasn't my contract application been approved yet?

P.S.: Some people say the next volume will be Black Bullet, but I want to go to Tokyo Ravens. Going to Black Bullet is just bullying the weak, isn't it?

Section 37, paragraph 13: Marriage is impossible; it's impossible for me to get married in this lifetime.

When Bai Jie arrived at the Tianming Medical Department, the place was already filled with a suffocating smell of gunpowder.

Upon seeing Bai Jie arrive, Ansel, as if grasping at a lifeline, tearfully said to Bai Jie, "Doctor! Why didn't you even tell us that Miss Chen was coming!"

"How was I supposed to know Chen would come here? And what's the situation now?"

"Miss Chen arrived at the medical department more than ten minutes ago. She and Director Kal'tsit started arguing after exchanging only a few words. Then it seems she took out something, and the two of them have been sitting there glaring at each other for ten minutes now. Doctor, please try to talk them out!"

Seeing Ansel crying with tears streaming down his face, looking pitiful, Bai Jie carefully wiped away his tears and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

In Kal'tsit's office, Kal'tsit, her expression icy as she looked at Chen sitting across from her, crossed her arms and said, "Ms. Chen, I hope what you just said was a joke."

"Unfortunately, that's not a joke, it's a fait accompli." Chen's tone was equally cold, making one feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, perhaps even the biting winds of winter could describe it. "You used to kidnap Bai Jie from me, so now that I'm taking him away, do you have a problem with that?"

"The Doctor is now a crucial tactical strategist for Rhodes Island, as well as an irreplaceable researcher. Taking him away would cause an irreparable and enormous loss."

"Is that all? Is that all Bai Jie is to you? Then it seems there's even less reason to keep him on Rhodes Island." As Chen said this, his hand was already on the hilt of Chixiao's sword.

With a raised eyebrow, Kal'tsit said coldly, "Want to use force? When did Lungmen become so domineering?"
