201 Lord Yuanxiang, ah, no, Comrade

Although the door wasn't pushed open, Genji could still hear the familiar voice through the dimly lit doorway. The boy smiled slightly, revealing his mischievous hands, which he cupped to his mouth, and mimicked the person's tone as he called out:

"Honey~ I'm not here~~"

"Old Chen, the store manager said he's not here."

"........"

Chen Huijie silently watched Hoshiguma, who was cooperating quite well, walked up to the door, knocked twice, pushed it open, and then saw Gensou's sickly appearance.

"Manager, are you still not fully recovered?!"

Chen Huijie's expression changed. She wanted to go over and check on Yuanxiang's situation, but remembering the Time Train conductor's warning, she put her raised leg down again and stood at the door, asking:

"Your complexion looks much worse."

"It's nothing, I just found a fun game and played it all night. That's probably why I look so bad."

Seeing Chen Huijie retract her leg, Yuanxiang remembered his instructions, so he walked over to Ryumen, gave Hoshiguma a thumbs-up for her cooperation, and smiled at Chen Huijie, saying:

"What's wrong? What happened? Do you need help?"

"Do you think I only think of you when I need help?"

Chen Huijie rolled her eyes at Yuanxiang, then turned around, picked up a box from the side, shoved it into the boy's arms, and said softly:

"Nutritional supplements are nothing special. I don't know much about them. I just picked out a few that taste good for you. Take good care of your body and don't leave any side effects."

Yuanxiang examined the contents of the box, then glanced at the four or five similar boxes next to Chen Huijie. He tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and said softly:

"I don't know why, but I feel like I'm in postpartum confinement."

"Manager, your thinking is getting a bit too far off."

Chen Huijie couldn't help but complain:

"You've never given birth, how would you know what that feeling is like?"

"......"

Hearing this, Gengo nodded in deep agreement, then silently looked up at Hoshiguma, because he felt that she seemed to have something to say, but had not been able to get a word in edgewise. To Gengo's surprise, the tall police officer noticed his gaze, paused slightly, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. Then, she slowly put her thumb in her mouth and tilted her head cutely like a child.

"No, no, no, Hoshiguma-nee, you've misunderstood me."

Gengo quickly spoke up to stop him, and after explaining his true intentions, Hoshiguma breathed a sigh of relief and followed Gengo's lead, saying:

"Hey buddy, have you seen Talulah and Alina these past few days?"

Hearing this, Chen Huijie raised an eyebrow and immediately looked at her good friend, because the question was exactly what she had been worried about these past few days. After Yuanxiang reunited the sisters, they had met several times in the side hall of the agency, so she was puzzled as to why no members of the Reunion Movement had appeared in the previous battle. Given Alina's personality, even if she didn't have any fighting ability, she should have called for help after realizing that Yuanxiang was trapped.

Therefore, after returning to Lungmen, Chen Huijie was very worried about Talulah's situation and paid special attention to the recent news from Ursus, but found no relevant information.

However, Chen Huijie had no intention of telling Yuanxiang about this. The young store manager was already very tired, and she didn't want to disturb him during his precious time to recuperate. Therefore, Chen Huijie had already written an application for a long leave and planned to go to Ursus in person to take a look.

However, now...

Ugh! Hoshiguma, you traitor!!!

"Ms. Chen, please correct your attitude and do not harbor any thoughts of assaulting a police officer. Knowing the law and breaking it will only increase your punishment."

"Manager...don't mimic my tone of voice."

Watching Yuanxiang playfully flicking the brim of his police cap while jokingly teasing him in a very serious tone, Chen Huijie sighed in defeat and explained softly:

"Manager, I'm not..."

"I know, I know you're worried about my health, but... there's a small problem..."

Gensho gestured a small gap with his finger and asked awkwardly:

"Who are Talulah and Alina? These two names... they seem familiar..."

“........”X2

Hearing this, Chen Huijie and Xingxiong exchanged a glance, looking at the boy with heartache. Undoubtedly, he had forgotten about that side of things, just as he had forgotten about theirs before. What kind of person keeps forgetting like this...?

"Ahem, now that you know the situation, please tell me about it."

Feeling uncomfortable under such attentive gaze, Yuanxiang coughed lightly and urged the two to get to the point. After listening to most of their story, Yuanxiang suddenly realized and slapped his palm. He had wondered why they looked so familiar. The two had appeared in his records, but only briefly mentioned in two sentences, so his impression of them was very faint.

"I understand. I'll go over there right away and get to know them again."

Yuanxiang snapped his fingers and smiled in agreement:

"It's just a simple errand, what's there to be embarrassed about? You should learn from Hoshiguma-nee in this regard... well."

Suddenly, Gensho blinked and changed the subject, saying:

"Do you handle thieves? And it seems one of them is infected?"

"Of course, whether you're infected or not, you can't break the law. What? Are there thieves around?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Huijie immediately became serious, her eyes gleaming as she scanned her surroundings, searching for the culprit. Yuanxiang, on the other hand, raised his hand, and the 'Cyclone' in his arms lit up. A green gust of wind shot out, and then a purple-haired girl with rabbit ears flew over. Yuanxiang grabbed her by the back of the neck and, with a slight, skillful shake, knocked her unconscious.

"people."

Gensho shook the rabbit-eared girl at Chen Huijie, then took a wallet from the steel cable in the girl's hand and handed it to Hoshiguma:

"The stolen goods have been seized. Alright, the rest of the work is up to the police officers. I'm leaving now. By the way, she really is infected. Be careful."

After handing the thief over and reminding Chen Huijie and Xingxiong, Yuanxiang waved and walked back to the office.

But before the door could close, a long, drawn-out bell rang out. Chen Huijie and Hoshiguma immediately saw strange points of light emanating from Gensou's body, and the boy's body seemed to flicker as a result. This unusual phenomenon made them call out to Gensou, worried that he might have some hidden injury, but...

"Hey, you two, long time no see. Heh heh, are you arresting someone?"

Turning around, Yuanxiang looked at the rabbit-eared girl who had been handcuffed by Chen Huijie, smiled, rolled up his sleeves, and proudly gave a thumbs-up, saying:

"Do you need my help? Let me tell you, I'm really good at finding things."

“........”X2

Chen Huijie and Hoshiguma stared speechlessly at Genji. This was clearly not a joke. So... this is how Genji lost his memory?

........

"Oh, I see."

After a moment, the conversation resumed. Gengo, having learned the situation, coughed apologetically and said, "To be honest, I've been so busy lately that I haven't even noticed what day of the week it is. And wouldn't you know it, I just forgot about this. I'll have to go to the shrine to change my luck later."

"In that case, I'll be off. You all go about your business. I'll get back to you as soon as I get any news. Goodbye."

"and many more......"

Because of what had just happened, Yuanxiang slammed the door shut as if fleeing, preventing Chen Huijie from finishing her sentence. Looking at the nutritional supplements left at her feet, she rubbed her forehead in exasperation and said to Xingxiong:

"Let's go, let's deal with this thief first, then we can talk about other things."

"Oh dear, what kind of situation is this?"

Hoshiguma sighed, looked at the door, and said:

"He's only seventeen! Why is God targeting him like this? It's a terrible tragedy."

On the other hand, after leaving Lungmen, Genji turned around and went to the Reunion Movement, or more accurately, Alina's side, since the little deer was the one who made a pact with Genji.

But the moment Yuanxiang stepped out the door, he smelled a strong herbal scent. He couldn't help but look up and cover his nose. Looking to the side, he saw Alina, whose face was almost as pale as his own. On the cabinet next to her, there were untreated bloodstained bandages.

What happened? How did you get so badly injured?

Yuanxiang frowned slightly, wanting to see where she was injured, but before that, he suddenly flicked his sleeve, knocking away the incoming crossbow bolt. Looking towards the door, he saw two children nervously watching him. The crossbow bolt had been fired from the hand of a little boy with black hair, green eyes, and pointed ears.

"It's Brother Yuanxiang!"

Before Yuanxiang could explain, the black-haired boy immediately put down his crossbow and tugged at the white-haired boy beside him, saying:

"Ino, he is Yuanxiang. He is the one who saved us. I'm sorry, Yuanxiang. You changed your clothes and I didn't recognize you. I thought someone was trying to harm Alina, so I attacked. Please forgive me."

"Don't worry about it, I'm not hurt."

Although he didn't remember, since the boy's attitude was so good, Yuanxiang loosened his clenched fist and watched as the white-haired boy slowly walked up to him, looked up at him, and said:

"Did you save me? Thank you. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't be able to sing anymore. But... could you save Sister Alina?"

Ino tugged at Gensou's sleeve and pleaded with him in a voice as sweet as a nightingale's:

"My Originium Arts are too weak to save Alina. Please, I beg you, Alina is a good person..."

"Don't cry, don't worry. Alina is also my client. I'll make her die easily. Come on, lend a hand and let me see her wounds."

Alina was indeed seriously injured, with alarming wounds on her left hand, left foot, and torso. Due to the poor conditions, she was showing signs of infection and worsening, and if things continued this way, death would be inevitable.

Fortunately, my new body is full of vitality, and I haven't stopped practicing Ripple, so healing her isn't too difficult.

"You can all leave now, I'm about to begin."

As Yuanxiang spoke, he clasped his hands together, took a deep breath, and pulled them outwards. Golden lightning danced between his fingers, plunging Alina into an even deeper slumber. Then, he picked up the small knife beside him, began cleaning away the rotten flesh, and started performing Ripple Healing.

Seeing Yuanxiang's actions, the two children immediately guessed what was going to happen next. They lowered their heads and looked at the ground, unable to bear the sight, but did not leave as instructed. As for why, Yuanxiang had a rough idea in his mind. They were probably afraid that he would not be able to save Alina, so that they could see her one last time.

.........

"Alright, go find something to eat. Your sister Alina will definitely be starving after she wakes up."

After a while, Yuanxiang put down the knife in his hand, picked up the rag next to him, wiped his hands and said, "Seeing Alina's face turn rosy, the two children cheered and ran out. Yuanxiang put 'Fang' next to the deer's pillow, asking it to protect the girl for the time being, and followed behind the two children as they walked out.

"Ino, Sasha, that's enough."

Just as Yuanxiang stepped out, he heard an aunt with bear ears, holding a child in each arm, crying uncontrollably as she said:

“We know about Alina’s injuries, so you two shouldn’t deceive yourselves. Alina wouldn’t want you to be like this.”

No, they didn't lie.

Yuanxiang clapped his hands, explaining on behalf of the two children:

"Alina is indeed alright. You can go and see her, but she's still sleeping, so don't make too much noise."

"Lord Yuanxiang..."

"what?!"

Hearing the way the aunt addressed him, Yuanxiang couldn't help but make a sound of surprise. Upon hearing this, the aunt quickly corrected herself, saying:

"Ah, no, I'm sorry, I'm used to calling people that. Um... um... ah, yes, comrade, Alina taught me that I should call you Comrade Yuanxiang."

"Um...where's Talulah? I need to talk to you about something..."
