Talulah, I'm still a child.

"If we install two more jet engines, will it still be able to fly?"
"Why don't we go back and build one? Let's call it Plum Blossom Number One Under Heaven!"
"Are you stupid? The name 'Number One in the World' has already been claimed."
While her sisters chattered away, Amaya simply lay on the grass by the riverbank enjoying the moonlight. Influenced by Mei Xue, the Siren Lolis seemed particularly excited tonight, unable to sleep and determined to come out and bask in the moonlight.
Besides them, Talulah, wandering in the wilderness, was also looking at the full double moon in the sky, thinking that one was herself and the other was Meixue. The two of them were close together, how wonderful!
"Two or three more days, it's going to be tough."
Talulah shook her head slightly, leaning back in her seat as her thoughts wandered. She actually regretted entrusting Mei Xue to Chen Huijie, which led him to Rhodes Island. At that time, neither of them knew Mei Xue's identity or that she was an enemy of Ursus. In fact, Patriot and she were both a little unsure. Entrusting Mei Xue to Chen Huijie was actually because she didn't want to implicate the little fox, especially since he was being watched by Ursus's internal guards at the time.
Looking back now, what if I hadn't sent Mei Xue away back then and had let him stay in Integration instead? Hmm, maybe I would have been turned into a lazy bum who never attended court in the morning.
"This trip with Mei Xue must be a success!"
Talulah gently touched the ring in her pocket, a slight smile playing on her lips, but then she began to worry about what might have happened to the Integration Group while she was away.
With high position comes deep worries. Although the Reunion Movement and Ursus are currently recuperating, Talulah still feels that it is not appropriate for her to run away like this. She will give up the three-month vacation and go back directly after she officially expresses her feelings to Mei Xue. She will first secure her position as the main wife.
Then, when she has time, she can go to Da Yan to spend the New Year with the little fox. Once the Reunion Movement succeeds, Talulah will be able to live a good life with Mei Xue.
"Those days would be wonderful."
Imagining that future, Talulah gently leaned back in her chair and drifted off to sleep, feeling quite tired after her long journey.
On Rhodes Island, the Doctor and Kal'tsit finally confirmed one thing: they didn't know if the box was alive, but no matter where it was placed, as long as no one was watching, it would appear in Mei Xue's sight.
In other words, this thing can only be kept by Mei Xue, since it's impossible to have someone watching it all the time, and cameras can't capture it.
"That's outrageous."
The doctor scratched his head. This box was indeed made by Mei Xue; it was as unpredictable as the little fox.
But this has never happened before, so it seems that some conditions need to be triggered, such as being close enough to Mei Xue.
"Anyway, let's leave it here for now, but we can't put it in Mei Xue's tail."
Kal'tsit's words made sense. Since Mei Xue chose to put it away separately, it meant that it wasn't that it couldn't be put into the tail, but rather that it couldn't be put into the tail according to the plan, or rather, what kind of impact putting this thing into the tail would have on Mei Xue.
"Well, just in case, I'll reluctantly sleep with Mei Xue tonight."
"..."
Faced with the shameless Doctor, Kal'tsit wanted to remind her that it was still the night of the double full moon, and that with the Doctor's current physical condition, there was a 90% chance that she would die in bed if she were to fight alone.
However, someone really needed to watch over Mei Xue tonight, so Kal'tsit had no choice but to stay as well.
So, Mei Xue was now flanked by two more people, with the little fox sandwiched between them. Compared to the still reserved Kal'tsit, the Doctor simply used both hands and feet to hold Mei Xue tightly, making people wonder what she was there to do.
However, Mei Xue quite liked this feeling. He had always found it difficult to sleep alone, and with Wu Lian gone and Kal'tsit and the Doctor arriving, he could finally get a good night's sleep tonight!
Thinking of this, the little fox wagged its tail happily, and then one of them was grabbed by Kal'tsit. Well, it seems she likes this one too.
They said they were going to sleep, but after a while only Mei Xue actually fell asleep. Kal'tsit and the Doctor couldn't sleep either. Kal'tsit was looking at the metal box, which looked rather bright in the moonlight.
It is non-conductive, completely insulating, and extremely hard, making it impossible for cameras to capture images of it. Kal'tsit already had a general idea, but once she said it, probably only a few people would understand it. It was a field that even Agor's science and technology had never ventured into.
The Doctor connected all the events that had happened during this period: the heavy snow that covered all of Terra, the letter sent to Londinium, the messenger from Fairytale Castle who returned, and the information provided by the Blood Demon Lady of Rusthammer. These events were not significant on their own, but they all happened to come together.
"They definitely have some important things they haven't said."
"You mean those few who just arrived?"
Kal'tsit looked at the Doctor and nodded. It seemed that some things could not be called coincidences.
Leaving aside the mysterious Blood Demon Lady, Alice and the others only mentioned that Mei Xue had left something at the Fairy Tale Castle, but didn't specify what it was, clearly indicating they were waiting for Mei Xue's return to tell them.
"After that heavy snow, first this metal box came into our hands, and then they came. Remember the signs Skadi mentioned that guided her? This was no coincidence; it was all pre-arranged."
Finally connecting everything, the Doctor couldn't help but tap her head. These events had a beginning and an end, and many of them were arranged by her, such as Skadi and W's missions. That's why she hadn't noticed such obvious clues. Her cleverness had backfired.
Even without the Doctor saying anything, Kal'tsit could guess that the only way to arrange everything so coincidentally and without arousing suspicion was for the Doctor and Mei Xue to work together in the past. Only in this way could they keep it from themselves.
But... why does it have to be now?
Chapter 366 Socialite Mei Xue
“Everything is normal. Mei Xue’s body is not even as healthy as Biskati’s, let alone having any problems. The density of his blood Originium crystals is even zero. Even babies in the womb are not as clean as him.”
Warfarin couldn't help but scratch her head. She felt that Mei Xue was practically challenging her bottom line as a medical researcher and scientist. This little fox was simply a natural Originium nemesis. Severe Originium patients could live for at least half a year if they just stayed near him. She couldn't figure out whether Mei Xue himself had the ability to suppress Originium disease, or whether Originium really had a certain kind of consciousness and was afraid of the little fox.
With her unusually healthy body and inexplicable, bizarre regenerative abilities, Warfarin's gaze toward Mei Xue gradually became somewhat strange. She felt that Gavial was right; as long as Mei Xue was hers, she could pose her however she pleased.
Of course, the idea was nice, but reality was not so good. Mei Xue's blood was strictly preserved by Kal'tsit, and Warfarin had no right to use it. As for eating fox spirits... Warfarin was still a little embarrassed to talk about it, mainly because she couldn't find a good opportunity, as there were always other people around Mei Xue.
"And what about your height?"
Mei Xue looked at Warfarin expectantly. The little fox didn't care about her physical condition, as he felt quite healthy. However, her height was a very important issue.
"Height..."
Seeing the expectation flickering in Mei Xue's eyes, Warfarin couldn't bear to tell him the truth and hurt him. Logically speaking, it's normal for immortal beings to grow slowly in the later stages, but how to put it...? By comparing with the data left behind by Babel Tower, Mei Xue seems to be shorter.
"He has grown a little bit taller, at least... about a millimeter."
Warfarin nodded. The lie was well-intentioned; yes, it was all for Meixue's happiness.
"Yeah! That's great!"
This news was no less exciting for Mei Xue than seeing Talulah; the little fox jumped up and down with excitement. Kal'tsit and the Doctor, who knew the truth, didn't want to spoil his mood.
Now, the two of them are facing many questions. For example, last night was clearly a night of double full moon, but they actually spent a peaceful and pleasant night with Mei Xue, instead of being exhausted and unable to get out of bed.
As for the metal box, just as the two of them had guessed, it would disappear on its own and reappear next to Mei Xue when there was no observer. However, once someone noticed its presence and continued to pay attention, it would quietly remain in its original state. This thing couldn't possibly be a simple box no matter how you looked at it.
For safety reasons, it's best not to open it for now. We need to talk to Alice and the others about some things later; the information they're hiding must be quite important.
"Thank you, Sister Warfarin!"
Overjoyed, Mei Xue happily tiptoed and pecked Warfarin's lips. The sweetness of that moment made Warfarin feel as if her heart had been struck by lightning. She didn't even care that her first kiss was gone. Her pale face instantly turned red.
Damn, how come this little fox is so good at flirting?
Seeing that Mei Xue was completely unfazed and didn't even blush, Warfarin couldn't help but mutter to herself, "She's been corrupted by these women on Rhodes Island who like younger men."
The Doctor and Kal'tsit exchanged a glance, only seeing the helplessness on each other's faces. Indeed, everyone on Rhodes Island doted on the little fox and had more or less those kinds of thoughts, so they never cared about anything when they got close to Mei Xue. This made Mei Xue herself feel a little embarrassed about how to handle the boundaries of her interactions with others.
The key point is that everyone knows and tacitly accepts this, after all, who wouldn't want to see Mei Xue smiling and rushing into their arms, obediently and sensibly giving them a kiss? That's impossible, Mei Xue is the embodiment of all the beautiful adjectives in the world.
Warfarin, stunned by the blow, was momentarily speechless, while Mei Xue, overjoyed, skipped and jumped as she followed Kal'tsit and the Doctor outside.
"Just... just one kiss?"
Warfarin pursed her lips, still able to taste the sweetness of Mei Xue's kiss. Damn it, her first kiss was gone just like that. No way, she had to make that little fox make it up to her! At least she had to give him a couple of kisses. As for how to coax Mei Xue over... ha, that's not much harder than one plus one equals two.
On the other side, seeing Mei Xue immersed in the excitement of "finally growing a millimeter taller", neither the Doctor nor Kal'tsit had the heart to break his good mood. Did they not know whether Mei Xue could grow taller? Even though Mei Xue had lived for so long, compared to the actual lifespan of a normal person, he was probably only a month old at this point.
No, thinking about it that way, both of them felt guilty, and of course, there was also some unspeakable excitement.
"Is it time to go to the meeting next?"
"Yes, Alice and Bena are waiting for us."
Kal'tsit nodded. Mei Xue was the most deserving of attention, which was why she examined the little fox's body immediately. However, her main purpose today was to obtain the secrets that Alice and Bena knew. Miss Blood Demon was also there, of course. She was more well-behaved than everyone expected. They thought she would be more "enthusiastic" after Mei Xue came to the island, but after carefully learning about the situation on Rhodes Island, she became quiet instead. Apart from seeing Mei Xue tease the little fox before, she didn't do anything else.
As for Alice and Bena, as messengers of the fairytale castle, they fulfilled their duties well and got along well with the children of Rhodes Island, but they still didn't receive many requests to store items.
The doctor turned her head slightly, and the silver metal box lay quietly on the Rhodes Island corridor floor, as if someone had accidentally lost it there. Whenever no one was watching, it always liked to come closer to its owner, Mei Xue.
Mei Xue skipped along ahead, smiling and greeting everyone she met as always. Although she didn't often use her brain for complex thinking, the little fox remembered everyone's name and preferences to avoid making mistakes when buying gifts.
"Hello, Blue Poison Sister! New cake? Great! I'll definitely go eat it later!"
"Sister White-faced Owl, you'll catch a cold sleeping in the corridor. Don't pull my tail to cover yourself with a blanket."
"Hey Phantom Brother, where's your cat? I haven't petted it in ages."
"Good morning, Ansel and brother."
Looking at Mei Xue, who had transformed into a social butterfly on Rhodes Island, the Doctor finally realized a problem: Mei Xue's social circle needed to be changed. Most of the people she knew were girls. What would happen if she changed them every day? It would probably take months to finish changing them all.
He dragged Mei Xue directly into the conference room. Except for a few who were on missions outside, most of Rhodes Island's elite operators were here. ACE, Scout, Outcast... Ascalon, who always hid in the shadows, was no longer hiding. Even Logos, whom Mei Xue had only seen a few times, was there. However, the little fox always felt that he was deliberately avoiding her gaze.
Bella was still playing games, Alice looked a little reserved, and Miss Blood Demon looked nonchalant.
Amiya, sitting in the main seat, wore a kind and gentle smile. It was clear that Theresa was currently in control of this body. When she saw Meixue, she happily patted her thigh, indicating that the little fox could sit down. After all, the positions of the left and right protectors were to be given to the Doctor and Kal'tsit.
Seeing Amiya waving at her, Mei Xue, still happy, ran over with small steps. Judging from how happily her tail was wagging, it was easy to see that she was in a good mood and was happy to sit with Amiya.
But Miss Blood Demon wouldn't tolerate such a thing happening under her nose. She grabbed Mei Xue's tail without hesitation, pulled the little fox into her arms, and wrapped her arms around him to prevent him from escaping.
"Gu..."
The pressure from Miss Blood Demon made Mei Xue obediently shrink into her arms. The little fox knew when to back down. It wasn't that he was afraid of Miss Blood Demon, since he didn't sense any malice from her.
It's just that the incident of running away from the wedding back then left a deep impression, so much so that even after losing her memory, the little fox still felt guilty when facing Miss Blood Demon, and was easily swayed by her.
"Since everyone is here, please take your seats. Miss Blood Demon, please don't make things difficult for Mei Xue."
With just one sentence, Theresa subtly solidified her position as the mistress of the house. Miss Blood Demon wasn't angry; she still respected Theresa. Of course, that didn't mean she would tolerate it.
"How could I possibly make things difficult for this faithless fox? I'm too busy doting on him."
With a gentle stroke of his fingertips across Mei Xue's flat stomach, Miss Blood Demon looked exceptionally elegant, but could also be described as incredibly arrogant. The Doctor thought that if either Chen Huijie or Surtr were here, they would probably be fighting.
"Ahem, I don't think today's meeting is about discussing Mei Xue's marriage, so may we begin?"
ACE pretended to cough twice to ease the tension and prevent everyone from starting a fight later. Mei Xue nodded and said that her older brother was right. Then the little fox suddenly froze because he felt something thin and cold wrap around his leg and climb up.
Looking down slightly, I saw a slender tail with a black, heart-shaped tip.
“ACE is right. Now that everyone is here, I think you two can tell us why you invited Mei Xue to the fairytale castle.”
The doctor brought the topic to the one everyone was most concerned about. Alice glanced at Bena and saw that she didn't seem to intend to speak but was staring at Mei Xue. She knew that this time, she probably couldn't keep the girl.
"Before I answer that question, may I ask if you all know a Sarkaz woman named Theresa?"
This question successfully made everyone except Mei Xue's eyelids twitch. They knew Theresa? Every Rhodes Island operator present knew her. Everything from the Tower of Babel was still vivid in their minds. Theresa's voice and smile were still in their minds. Even now, it was Theresa herself who was controlling Amiya's body.
"Theresia was once the leader of Rhodes Island, and also... my past."
This answer made Alice take a second look at "Amiya," which was pretty much what she had guessed. However, Theresa and Amiya got along very well, and it wasn't a case of one taking over the other's body.
"Are all the people present trustworthy?"
