People in the Alliance, Time Management Master

This is just too outrageous... It's like the saying goes, "Some are dying of drought while others are drowning in floods."

After the two sides stared at each other for a while, Camille broke the silence first:

“Alright, then I’ll leave it to you, Miss Salafine.” She looked down at Mu Bai, a hint of displeasure in her eyes. “See you later, Mu Bai.”

"Oh... thank you, Mrs. Camille!"

Salafine was surprised that the other party would agree so easily, and quickly bowed to express her gratitude.

"I will definitely take good care of Mr. Mu Bai!"

"Hmm." Camille responded coldly, then swayed her slender waist and left.

Only after that tall figure completely disappeared did Mu Bai breathe a sigh of relief.

"Come to my place and rest for a bit, Mu Bai," Salafine said with a smile.

Chapter 50 The Forgotten Little Jinx

Mu Bai originally thought that a big star like Seraphine would never live in Zaun. Even if she did, she would live in the wealthy area of ​​the Dance Corridor or the Mid-Levels Plaza.

Unexpectedly, she not only lived in a remote area, but her house was also ridiculously small—compared to people of the same social class.

It's a single-story building with one bedroom, one living room, and a kitchen next to the bathroom; the total area is less than 50 square meters.

If it weren't for the expensive musical instruments everywhere, Mu Bai would have thought he had entered the home of some young migrant worker in Beijing.

"Um... the house is a bit small, please don't mind..."

Salafine sat with her legs crossed on the small sofa, looking embarrassed.

Putting aside the question of whether this house is suitable for welcoming guests... this is the first time she has brought a man home, how could she not be shy and nervous?

"Small but exquisite, I really like this layout." In contrast, Mu Bai was much more at ease. After all, it wasn't his first time visiting a girl's house.

"Hmm... I'm glad you like it..."

The girl's eyes darted around, her posture was awkward, and she kept twirling the ends of her hair with one hand, looking very uneasy.

It took her a while to remember why the other person had come.

"Mu Bai, how are your injuries? I have a first-aid kit here, do you need it?"

"No need, I'm almost fully recovered." Mu Bai waved his hand, leaned back in his chair, and tried to straighten his legs as much as possible, otherwise it would be too uncomfortable to be squeezed like that.

"So...would you like to change your clothes? But I only have women's clothing here..."

"...No need, thank you."

"Hmm... food? Are you hungry? I can cook for you or make you noodles?"

"No need, thank you."

"Then how about I—"

"No need!" Mu Bai hurriedly interrupted the other party, "Really, there's nothing needed. I'll just sit for a while and then leave. There's no need to trouble yourself."

“Oh…” Salafine nodded slightly, a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

She wanted to repay his kindness, but Mu Bai seemed to need nothing, which saddened her.

All the previous plans are useless now... The girl thought sadly. Mr. Mu Bai doesn't need her to sing for him alone or treat her to a meal... So what does he need...?

"Thank you so much for your help today." Mu Bai noticed the other person's guilt and immediately comforted him, "If it weren't for you, things would have been really bad just now."

"It was just a small favor."

Salafine forced a smile, feeling slightly better. Well, at least she was of some help; she wasn't completely useless.

"By the way, what exactly happened? Did that monster... really get away?"

"Yes, they ran away, but not completely."

Looking into the girl's pure and clear eyes, Mu Bai hesitated for a moment before revealing everything about Camille and Warwick.

Of course, the matter of time travel wasn't mentioned yet—the other party wouldn't believe it anyway, and might even be seen as a fraud, so it wasn't worth it.

"So Warwick... I always thought he was a monster who indiscriminately killed innocent people..." Seraphine covered her mouth in surprise after hearing this.

It was unexpected, partly due to Warwick's history, and partly due to the unexpectedness of Mu Bai.

The "Howling Ghost" that had plagued the entire Zaun for so long was completely no match for Mu Bai, and even his escape was intentionally orchestrated by the latter...

Exquisite swordsmanship, unpredictable spatial magic, terrifyingly fast self-healing speed...

The girl unconsciously swallowed, and her eyes filled with even more admiration as she looked at Mu Bai.

"It's almost time." After finishing the story, Mu Bai stood up and looked at the sky outside the window. "I have to go back now. See you next time."

"When is the next time?" Salafine asked hastily. She hadn't finished repaying the favor yet.

"Hmm... If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be free tomorrow and the day after."

"See you tomorrow!" the girl laughed happily. "Where do you live? I'll come find you tomorrow."

Mu Bai scratched his head.

This is getting weirder and weirder...

..............................

In a corner of the ditch area, Warwick opened his eyes.

So tired... My body aches... My eyelids are about to close...

This ceiling... looks familiar? Where am I...?

Before that... oh right, that young man... am I dead?

"You're awake?" A cheerful voice interrupted Warwick's thoughts. Then, he saw a smiling face.

She has some freckles on both sides of her nose. Her face isn't exactly beautiful, but it's cute.

“It’s you again…” Warwick grinned instinctively, trying to scare the girl away with his sharp teeth and roar, but his weak appearance only elicited a soft laugh from the girl.

"You can't move now." The girl smiled and reached out to gently pluck a handful of wolf fur. It didn't feel very good; it was hard, but it was warm. "Lie down quietly; your injury is quite serious."

"Get out of here..."

Warwick felt offended and immediately struggled to sit up.

Before he could even yell, he saw the crooked bandages covering his body. They were wrapped terribly and tied in a bow.

That's really... infuriating.

"It's not tied very well, don't mind it..." the girl stuck out her tongue and said, "Lie down quickly, you need to rest now."

"..."

Warwick ignored her and continued examining his wound.

The cuts from the sword were bandaged, and the tubing connecting the reservoir was repaired with glue and strips of cloth. It wasn't very aesthetically pleasing, but at least it was effective.

"You're the one who brought me back...?"

"Yes, yes, I dragged you back all by myself." The girl said proudly. "Mr. Mu Bai gave me some silver wheels, which I used to buy medical supplies and food."

"Mu Bai? That man who uses a sword?"

"Yes, he also said that you can go to him when your injury is better, and he will help you."

“No need!” Warwick roared, anger reigniting within him. “That damn thing…”

This time, the girl wasn't frightened by the shout. She just smiled and shrugged, secretly planning when to go find Mu Bai.

..............................

Inside the safe house of a certain Philosopher family agent.

Jinx slumped on the sofa, glancing at the less-than-healthy books, then at the wall clock, repeating this dozens of times.

"Why isn't he back yet... Did Xiaobai run away from home to avoid cooking?"

"Hmm...it's very likely..."

"That's just the kind of person he is."

After hesitating for a moment, Jinx still did not choose to cook for herself.

She sat up from the sofa, looked at the juice in her glass that had been secretly laced with chili sauce, and suddenly felt an urge to tear the house apart.

Hmph... Little White dares to tease me...

Playing pranks is one thing, but not coming home on time to cook dinner is another! How awful!

I really want to tear his house down... tsk, never mind... I still need to live here.

I'll tear it down when I've had enough of living here and am ready to leave...

I'm so hungry, why aren't they back yet...?

Lost in thought, the forgotten Jinx collapsed again _(:3」∠)_

Chapter Fifty-One: The Latecomer Surpasses the Old!

"really……"

Inside a secluded workshop at Piltover College, a disheveled Jess held aloft a crystal shard, his dark circles barely concealing the excitement in his eyes.

After dozens of hours of intensive research, he finally verified his previous conjecture.

The robot's energy core comes from the energy crystals of Shurima!

"It really is you, Viktor..."

After the initial excitement, a wave of drowsiness washed over him. Jess put down the crystal, leaned back in his chair, and stared blankly at the ceiling.

He also had a small piece of this crystal, which was inside the Hextech warhammer that could freely change shape.

He used to have more.

Victor stole them.

You've ultimately gone down the wrong path, old friend... Jess thought painfully. Glorious Evolution, Codename C... How many innocent lives have you harmed for those vague and inhumane things?
