Talulah, I'm still a child.

Mostima licked his lips, glanced around and saw that Exusiai was still asleep, but Angelina and Fiamet were awake and sounded like they were preparing food. They probably wouldn't bother them for a while.

However, making too much noise is definitely not advisable. Well, let's just treat it as a pre-breakfast snack.

Then, in the next moment, Mei Xue woke up with a start.

As for what happened next... I can only say I know, I know (I have a full schedule of classes tomorrow, so I won't go into details, cough cough).

——————————A dividing line that everyone understands——————

After breakfast was prepared, Fiame turned and went into the tent to wake Mostima and Meixue up for breakfast. She then discovered that they had already eaten and seemed to have even drunk a glass of milk. Seriously, this guy didn't button up a single button on his shirt last night? Sleeping with Meixue like that, she's so shameless!

"You... never mind, it's time to eat breakfast."

"You guys eat, I'm not hungry."

Mostima wiped her mouth. Luckily, she reacted quickly enough to cover Mei Xue with the blanket so that Fiameta wouldn't discover anything. However, this was also thanks to the fact that Fiameta was always like that and would never think of things in that way.

However, Mostima did not notice that Exia's gaze behind her was so sharp and chilling.

Chapter 219 Plum Blossom's Tail

As it turned out, Mei Xue's presence made the journey much smoother. Fia Meta finally realized just how terrifying this little fox's abilities were. For three whole days, until they were about to leave the Syracuse region, they didn't encounter any accidents or even a single Originium Bug by the roadside.

"Mei Xue, do you know what to call my sister when you meet her?"

"Of course I call her 'older sister' too."

"Oh right, what if I meet my parents?"

"Hmm... Uncle/Auntie or Brother/Sister?"

"Of course we should call them uncle and aunt, otherwise the generational order will be messed up."

Exusiai kept a close eye on the situation behind her through the rearview mirror. Mostima was sitting in the passenger seat, so she didn't need to worry about what Fiameta and Angelina would do to the little fox.

"But she smiled happily when I called Outcast 'sister'."

"That's a special case. Anyway, you can still call them Mom and Dad. By the way, did you bring your ID?"

As Exusiai's words became increasingly outrageous, Mostima couldn't help but wonder if this guy really intended to take this opportunity to get a marriage certificate with Mei Xue. After all, Laterano wouldn't allow it, because putting aside Mei Xue's appearance, the ID card Chen Huijie got for him in Lungmen only showed the number 14.

“I brought it. Sister Chen said it can be used outside of the Civil Affairs Bureau.”

The little fox's words were embarrassing; it seemed Chen Huijie had foreseen this all along. Angelina was even more embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Her main purpose in going home this time was to check on her family and also to see what Lateran was like, treating it as a trip.

"By the way, what gift did you bring Remian this time, Aneng?"

Mostima was quite curious about this, because Exusiai hadn't seen her older sister for a long time, and she couldn't possibly return empty-handed.

"Hmph, I brought her a brother-in-law, that's the best gift!"

If it weren't for her hands being on the steering wheel, Exusiai would definitely be proudly standing with her hands on her hips right now. After all, in her eyes, Mei Xue is a wonderful gift, and her older sister would definitely love this little fox.

Exusiai could even picture her older sister nodding in agreement to her dating Meiyuki.

Of course, it goes without saying that Remien likes Meixue, but as for the rest... well, it might not be what Exusiai imagined. At least Mostima felt that what she said sounded a bit strange.

Mostima was actually quite worried, not because she was worried that Meixue might have had an accident in Laterano, but because she was worried that Remian might have other feelings for Meixue. Although the two were strangers at the moment (as Mostima thought), she had no doubt about Meixue's charm.

This little fox is an invaluable treasure to all the older sister types. Mostima has been keeping a close eye on it all this time, afraid that her best friend is secretly making her a straw hat.

As for Angelina? Mostima had been keeping an eye on her and noticed that although she and Mei Xue were friends, she deliberately kept her distance. Although she would touch the little fox's outstretched tail, she never took the initiative to touch it.

"We should be able to leave Syracuse today. Once we enter Lateran, we can feel much more at ease. Although Lateran isn't exactly paradise on earth, at least there won't be Rusthammer or too many bounty hunters."

"A rusty hammer?"

Mei Xue twitched his ears. He felt that the name Fiameta mentioned sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

"Yes, they are a violent organization that has broken away from civilization and roams the wasteland. Although they are collectively called Rusthammer, they are divided into factions of varying sizes, so they are a group."

Since she had nothing better to do, Fiameta didn't mind giving Meixue some science education. After all, this little fox was very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss, and she liked people who didn't cause trouble.

"They regard civilization as the enemy, live in the wasteland, and are rumored to lead a rather primitive life. They even dare to fight against regular armies and are active in countries large and small. Ursus is the most prominent among them, and there are also traces of them in the Great Yan."

"That's really impressive..."

The little fox's fluffy tail swayed freely, occasionally brushing against Fiameta. She understood that this was just the little fox's instinctive action and didn't pursue it.

"Being formidable is secondary; the key is that this organization is notorious for its ruthlessness in killing. They are more vicious than you think."

"Hmm... but they probably won't eat people, right?"

Mei Xue's words made Fiameta choke up. She really didn't know how to answer the question. However, Mostima smoothed things over at the crucial moment and looked back at Mei Xue with some curiosity.

"Hey Meixue, I'm curious about something, can you answer me?"

"Yes, sister, go ahead and ask."

After all, Mostima was her ex-girlfriend, so Mei Xue naturally answered all her questions, except when it came to the Reunion Movement and personal commitments.

"How long can your tail actually extend? Is it made of rubber?"

Mostima stroked his chin with some curiosity. Mei Xue's tail was probably the strangest part of his body. Not to mention that it could store all sorts of things, it was also the source of his wishes. Moreover, while most people's tails were only as long as they could grow, Mei Xue's could extend freely.

It can grow big or small, stretch and contract freely, hiss... Mostima's thoughts wandered a little.

Normally, these tails are relatively short when the little fox tucks them behind her, but when Mei Xue is happy, they gradually grow longer while swaying, and can even function in some ways similar to a hand, which makes people really curious.

"I don't know either, but it just grows longer on its own when it wants to extend."

Mei Xue scratched her head. This was clearly a question that puzzled the little fox. After all, many of the tail's movements were done subconsciously, just like breathing. Few people realize that breathing can be done on its own. However, once people realize this, most people switch their breathing from automatic to manual mode.

"Sigh, wouldn't that make it just like everything else?"

Mostima stroked his chin seriously and said something that made Angelina blush, nearly caused Exusiai to crash, and left Fiameta and Meixue extremely puzzled.

"...You really dare to say that."

After all, she's someone who's been with a vixen. How could Exusiai not know what Mostima was talking about? This wicked woman is always flirting with the little fox; she's really despicable.

"Speaking of tails, Miss Mostima's tail is like a standard Sarkaz tail, isn't it?"

“That’s right, Mei Xue knows that very well.”

The blue-haired fallen angel answered Angelina's question, while casually casting a meaningful glance at Mei Xue, who was holding her tail. The little fox twitched its ears, indicating that it didn't understand, but it still nodded firmly.

Firstly, Mostima's tail is usually exposed, and secondly, the little fox has petted her several times already. Leaving aside what happened in the bathroom, this morning Mostima first petted her chest and hands, and after she finished eating, she petted her feet and tail. Of course, the little fox has a deep impression of her.

Exusiai glanced at Mostima and noticed that she was wearing a seatbelt; otherwise, she would have slammed on the brakes and sent her crashing into the windshield.

Exusiai opened her eyes when she heard those strange noises this morning, but Mostima was busy eating breakfast and had her back to her, so she didn't notice that Exusiai was awake. To be honest, Exusiai had a strong urge to put a gun to her head at that moment.

What are you talking about?

Of all those present, only Fiameta truly didn't understand anything. After all, she had been single all this time and had never learned about that kind of thing; her views on love were rather conservative.

Angelina's face turned as red as an apple after understanding all this. Mei Xue even had the urge to take a bite out of her. She glanced at the little fox beside her and had already guessed the relationship between him and Mostima.

When Angelina realized that Mei Xue was also looking at her, her face turned even redder. She wished she could find a place to hide. Her mind was filled with thoughts of the little boy driving a big car. Oh right, Mei Xue really knows how to drive.

(A pure and innocent young boy is deceived into doing that kind of thing by a gentle yet lustful older sister. Oh my god, Angelina, what are you thinking? No, no, stop it!)

"Speaking of tails... I don't think all Sarkaz have tails, do they?"

Exusiai skillfully changed the subject, but Mei Xue said she had no problem with that.

"Yes, neither does Surtr nor Mudrock."

How did you know that?

"Hmm... Sister Mudrock told me this herself. As for Sister Surtr, Leivadin knows a lot about her, such as that she doesn't like to cover herself with a blanket when she sleeps at night."

Levadin's identity doesn't need an introduction. Last night, everyone saw Mei Xue using her to boil water while also drying her tail and hair. She's quite useful.

"I see. But I'm actually more curious whether Kal'tsit has a tail. Is it curled up?"

"No, Kal'tsit really doesn't have a tail."

"Mei Xue, how can you be so sure?"

"Because I've seen it before."

The little fox answered affirmatively while taking an apple out of its tail and munching on it, completely unaware of the shock its answer had on the others, even Mostima was starting to lose her composure.

Good heavens, Angelina was practically steaming with shock. She had thought that Mei Xue's matter was only related to Mostima, but she never expected that even the usually aloof Dr. Kal'tsit was involved.

However, after the little fox's words, Fiameta seemed to realize what Mostima meant earlier. She froze on the spot, staring wide-eyed at Mei Xue and Mostima mechanically.

Although she knew that Mostima had even dated Mei Xue, she couldn't expect Fiameta to know much more about the details. But she wasn't stupid; after all, she was a grown woman and knew a thing or two about matters between men and women.

"You...you wouldn't...I..."

Fiameta was speechless. Looking at the confusion in Mei Xue's eyes, she suddenly guessed that this little fox was probably tricked by Mostima. Don't ask, just know that Mostima and her comrades-in-arms were not just for show.

After much deliberation, Fiameta decided to keep quiet and planned to talk to Mostima alone later. If it really was true... she would lock her up in Laterano's prison this time!

"Sister Angelina, do you have a cold?"

Compared to Fiameta's stammering, the little fox was more concerned about Angelina's expression. He noticed that her face was quite red and she seemed to have a fever.

"Oh, no, I just caught a slight cold."

"Then you still need to take some medicine."

Mei Xue twitched his fox ears. Before leaving, everyone in the medical department gave him a lot of medicine, especially Warfarin and that older sister Ya Ye. The latter was always very helpful to Mei Xue. Whenever the little fox couldn't find his way in the medical department, she would happen to meet him and lead the way.

"Let me see, it's not this one. It's not for treating heart attacks, nor for high blood pressure. Ah, it's here."

The little fox took a packet of medicine out of its tail and handed it to Angelina, then continued to eat its apple, not forgetting to give everyone some food as well.

Having traveled for a long time in the wilderness, it was rare to find such fresh food. Fiameta didn't stand on ceremony, but seemed a little absent-minded. Meixue glanced behind her, and the little fox noticed that a car was speeding towards them, and that the car had the Syracuse symbol on it.

"What business do you have with the people of Syracuse?"

"I don't know, they seem to be hostile. Prepare for battle."

Fiameta gripped her hand cannon tightly. She was about to leave the Syracuse border and didn't want any more accidents to happen.

Meanwhile, Mandra and his group, unable to catch up with Mei Xue, had no choice but to seek help from Rusthammer, hoping they could intercept and kill Mei Xue on her way back to Ursus.

"So...you really want to kill this Volper?"

"Yes, but for various reasons we lost track of the person and the car broke down, so we have no choice but to offer a reward. Name your price, Mr. Cannot."

Looking at the people in front of him whose heads were encased in iron cans, Mandra disliked these guys, but this was the only way for him now. Rusthammer was far from civilization, had a large number of members, and many of them were powerful. No one in the wilderness wanted to offend them, and Deeppool was one of their partners.
