Transform into Ruan Mei and start from the battlefield of national destiny

Blanca subconsciously took a few steps back.

Feeling the gazes of passersby attracted by Alicia's actions, Blanca's brain suddenly short-circuited.

who am I?

where am I?

What am I going to do?

"Alisa, don't bully my assistant!" Mebius came over and pried Alisa's hands apart.

"How could I bully her? This was just a friendly exchange~?" Alicia naturally let go of her hand, but was completely unaware of her mistake. Instead, she winked at Mebius.

I obviously look much older than the pink-haired girl in front of me, but why do I have the illusion that I am being manipulated?

"Um... ahem, Miss Alicia, my name is Blanca, and I'm Dr. Mebius' assistant." Blanca said with a dry laugh.

"What a cute name, huh." Just then, a pink-haired girl who was a little shorter than Alicia walked over. Her tone was still the same familiar tone as Alicia's, the kind of tone in which she spoke some difficult-to-understand words to herself.

If other people said such words, people would definitely feel rejected and embarrassed subconsciously, but if two pink-haired girls said these words, people would feel as if it was natural.

"Hello, my name is Xilian, from Mebius. Um... let me think about how I should let her call me." Xilian pointed at her chin with her index finger and tilted her head back in thought.

Mebius was familiar with Xilian's movements and knew that she was about to say something shocking, so he quickly interrupted her: "This is my adoptive mother's good friend, Xilian, the guardian of Alicia."

"It turns out to be Ms. Xilian." The adoptive mother's friend, Alicia's guardian, was shocked. She was so young. She looked a few years younger than Alicia. The one who looked like the older sister turned out to be the adopted daughter, and the one who looked like the younger sister turned out to be the mother!

"Hello, Miss Blanca, my name is Robin, thank you for your help to Mebius during this period." Robin's introduction was decent and elegant, which touched Blanca a little. She actually had such a normal self-introduction, but why did her tone sound like that of Mebius' elder?

At this time, Mebius spoke again: "Blanca, this Black Curly... no, Miss Mockingbird, is also a friend of my mother. She has been taking care of me when I was little."

“…” Blanca shook hands with Robin with a wooden face.

Then, she looked at the people communicating in front of her, and suddenly doubted whether there was something wrong with her judgment of other people's youth.

"Senior Blanca, please don't mind it. This is how the doctor's family is." Klein walked to Blanca and whispered.

"Doctor's family?" Blanca turned to look at Klein.

"Well, these people are the doctor's family." Klein nodded and said.

Chapter 33 Desserts

In fact, only Ruan Mei was invited by Mebius. As for the other people who came with him, it was just a coincidence.

Robin received a new performance invitation, Xing came to investigate the band's next itinerary, and Alicia's travel photography and food series also happened to come to Mu Continent. As for Xilian, she was brought here by Alicia as a special guest.

After coincidentally learning that Mebius had invited Ruan Mei, everyone discussed and decided to just fly here together. Otherwise, with Ruan Mei's personality, she would just use the Phase Spirit Fire to transfer directly to Mu Continent instead of wasting time on the plane.

After a brief chat at the airport, the family started their respective actions, and Blanca finally understood why Mebius had asked if there were any Chinese restaurants near the airport. No, to be precise, she understood it the moment she saw Ruan Mei.

Ruan Mei's outfit, which is full of Chinese elements, says it all.

What happened next was not beyond Blanca's expectations. After returning to the hotel and putting down their luggage, Mebius indeed suggested going to the pastry shop in the city center.

Ruan Mei nodded in agreement.

So the group set off for the city center and came to the pastry shop that Blanca mentioned.

We requested two adjacent tables, one for two and one for four.

It goes without saying that being able to open in the city center does require some strength. Not only are the pastries authentic and delicious, but the decoration is also unique and innovative, creating an atmosphere that feels like returning to ancient times.

"I heard that this store occasionally has magic shows in the afternoon." Blanca looked at the information she had searched for about the store.

Mebius was not interested in the magic show at all, thinking it was just some tricks for the eyes, but Ruan Mei raised her eyebrows, as if she was somewhat interested in the magic show Blanca mentioned.

So Mebius turned to look at Blanca: "Is the exchange meeting tomorrow?"

"Yes, Doctor, it will start at 9 am tomorrow and end at 5 pm, with a two-hour break in between. It will last for a total of seven days." Blanca said, recalling the information about the seminar.

Mebius frowned. "Put all your afternoon plans on hold. I'll be giving these people some face by going in the morning."

Blanca was choked. Although her boss, who was also a doctor, was indeed quite willful, it was still very rare for him to be so willful.

After glancing discreetly at Ruan Mei, who was sitting next to Mebius, Blanca nodded. "Okay, Doctor, I'll try to negotiate with the organizers."

"It's okay, Mebius. Just proceed at your own pace and don't worry about me. Besides, you do owe them a favor, don't you?"

Ruan Mei could feel that after that incident, Mebius's attachment to her became stronger. Ruan Mei did not hate this feeling, but she did not want to disturb Mebius because of herself.

At least, Mobius, who lives in human society, still needs some social skills.

If anyone else had tried to persuade him, Mebius would have come up with an excuse like "It's just the fantasy of a bunch of mediocre people, there's nothing good to say about it." Moreover, Mebius had originally agreed to the organizer's invitation, on the one hand to repay them a favor, and on the other hand to invite Ruan Mei to come out and play together.

But, since his mother said so, Mebius was silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "Blanca, there's no need to call those old men."

Blanca put down her phone, about to dial, and after answering, she went to sit down at her seat. Then she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her low voice was filled with shock: "Klein, who is the doctor's mother? The doctor actually listens to her so much, such a well-behaved doctor, I must be dreaming!"

It was a bit of an exaggeration, but for Blanca, it was definitely not an exaggeration. Mebius's performance today was completely different from his previous arrogant character. It was not surprising to say that he had a split personality.

Ying folded her hands, and her half-closed eyes opened at this moment. She quietly looked at the two assistants who were whispering to each other. She was indeed very curious about Ruan Mei.

While Klein and Blanca were discussing their boss behind his back, on the other side, the table where Mebius and Ruan Mei were sitting was a little quiet.

Ruan Mei pinched a piece of cake, looked at the floating willow catkins and the flowing river outside the window, and took a light bite. The sweetness of the cake blended with the fragrance of the willow trees in the wind.

Mebius watched this scene quietly. Although it was not the first time he had seen such a scene, to be more precise, he had seen the scene of his mother drinking tea and eating snacks countless times, but he still had a dreamy feeling like a painting.

"Try it? The snacks in this shop are really good, light and not too sweet." Just when Mebius was a little dazed, Ruan Mei had already retracted her gaze. She looked at Mebius and spoke.

"Yeah." Mebius responded and lowered his head.

Because they ordered all the popular items in one go, there were a wide variety of snacks on the table, about ten kinds in total. Mebius couldn't decide which one to eat first.

But there was no need for Mebius to continue to struggle, as a piece of dessert handed to her had already made the choice for her.

"I didn't expect that this store actually sells Eight Treasures Cake. I heard from Hol Haiya before that you have been busy with experiments these days and have no time to rest. According to what they say here, eating something can relieve fatigue." Ruan Mei pinched a square piece of cake in her left hand and stretched it in front of Mebius' mouth.

Mebius was a little embarrassed for a moment. After all, this was in public, and it was too embarrassing to accept food from others, even if that person was his mother.

Ruan Mei asked, "Why? Don't you like it?"

Mebius replied, "No."

Then he made up his mind, opened his mouth, and took a bite of the dessert.

It is just as Ruan Mei said. When you eat it, you don’t feel too sweet. Instead, you have a light fragrance accompanied by a subtle medicinal aroma.

"Do you like it?" Ruan Mei asked.

"It's delicious." Mebius nodded.

"Then eat a little more." Ruan Mei smiled.

"Mother, I'll do it myself." Mebius replied hurriedly.

To ease his embarrassment, Mebius immediately found a new topic: "Speaking of which, why didn't I see Hol Haiya just now? Didn't she come with you, mother?"

"Hol Haiya has some things to deal with." Ruan Mei smiled and placed the pastries in front of Mebius.

Hearing Ruan Mei say this, Mebius immediately thought of Hol Haiya's identity: "Is it something related to Honkai?"

"Well... sort of?" Ruan Mei replied.

Chapter 34 Dusk Street

Hol Haiya, a life form created by Ruan Mei specifically to collect the core of the Herrscher, is actually a well-known figure in human society.

The Melander Historical Research Association, a private association engaged in archaeological excavations and historical research, is actually secretly engaged in some gray area affairs and even has business dealings with high-ranking officials of some countries. Holhaiya is the president of this association.

This is also the reason why World Snake was able to grow from a small business to a global giant, but was never destroyed by the oligarchs through violence. Once the actions were excessive and the line was crossed, the consequences would inevitably be bloodshed.

The boss of an industry leader had an accident while on a private plane. The plane crashed and killed everyone on board. This major incident is still seen by these people as a warning from the dark.

Now, the boss of this evil gang has come to an area where a normal person would never go.

Although Dusk Street has the word "street" in its name, it is actually not a street, but a nickname for a chaotic area. It is a well-known lawless area where the law has no power. With the government's deliberate indulgence, Dusk Street has completely become a synonym for chaos, dirtiness, the lower class and crime.

The moment he stepped into Dusk Street, Holhaiya realized this fact.

In the middle of the road, two gangs were fighting each other with machetes, while on the side of the road, a few young people were sitting in front of a small stall, eating fried rice as if nothing had happened.

"What a chaotic scene! Can there really be a quiet place here?" Holhaiya couldn't help but doubt the information he had collected.

The task that Ruan Mei gave to Holhaiya was to find the owner of a sanatorium in a place called Dusk Street and invite this lady named Aponia to the World Snake.

But Dusk Street is not a place name at all, but a title. Since it is a title, it is not difficult to understand that there are many Dusk Streets all over the world.

However, adhering to the spirit of being here since he was already there, Holhaiya still planned to stroll around this dusky street to see if he could run into the woman named Aponia.

Jumping down from the building and landing lightly on the street, Holhaiya in his bulky uniform attracted everyone's attention.

But although everyone was drooling over this woman's face and figure, no one rushed forward to pick a fight like a brainless fool. After all, the way she was dressed made it clear that she was not someone to be messed with.

Rule XX of survival in Twilight Street: People who wear strange clothes must have something extraordinary.

Holhaiya's clothes looked incredibly high-tech, and God only knew what the liquid flowing in those tubes was. If it was a virus, everyone would be finished.

"Hmm, I thought I could stretch my muscles." Hol Haiya was a little surprised that the people here actually had some brains. However, even though the people on Dusk Street didn't cause trouble for Hol Haiya, it didn't mean that Hol Haiya wouldn't take the initiative to cause trouble for them.

Holhaiya gently waved the staff in his hand, and suddenly a tornado rose in the street in front of him. Then, in the surprised, stunned and shocked eyes of everyone, it flew directly towards the gangsters who were fighting in a group.

The speed of wind movement is not comparable to that of human feet. Even though the gangsters discovered the troublemaker and fled in all directions as soon as the tornado rose, no one could escape the wind and they were all swept into the tornado.

Holhaiya gently danced her fingers, and the green tornado danced along with it, looking elegant and agile. However, the people trapped in the tornado were in bad luck. They seemed to be thrown into a washing machine, feeling dizzy.

This is the case when Holhaiya held back. After all, the dead can't help him. Otherwise, with the power of the tornado, everyone inside would be torn into pieces.

It was not until ten minutes later that Holhaiya released these unlucky guys from the tornado.

The green whirlwind dissipated and lost its support. The gangsters in the sky fell to the ground one after another like dumplings.

A small gang leader covered his head and wanted to vomit. He fell to the ground and couldn't stand up. When he tried to stand up again, two plump and beautiful legs in shiny black and black leather shoes appeared in front of him.

"I ask, you answer." Holhaiya said with a sneer.

The chill seemed to have suddenly transformed from a scorching summer into the depths of winter. He shuddered, "Yes, yes, yes, sir, if you ask, I will tell you everything I know!"

"Do you know a person named Aponia on this Dusk Street?" Holhaiya asked in a frivolous tone. She actually had no expectations for the answer to this question.

But as the saying goes, when you look back, that person is there in the dim light.

"Aponia! You're looking for that woman named Aponia? If you're Aponia's friend, you should have told us earlier. We would have respectfully escorted you to the sanatorium."

"!" The unexpected answer made Holhaiya stunned.

Sanatorium, Aponia, could it be that this Dusk Street is really the Dusk Street that Ms. Ruan Mei asked me to find?

"Where is she?" Holhaiya asked.

"If you keep going north from here, you will see the sanatorium where Aponya is." The gang leader answered honestly.

"Thank you for the information." Holhaiya smiled slightly, then kicked his legs on the ground, and the whole person rose up with the wind, his white robe fluttering in the wind.

"My God, she can fly!" Everyone on the ground looked up at this extremely unreal scene and lost the ability to speak.

On the other side, Holhaiya in the air quickly found his target. After all, a sanatorium occupies a large area in Dusk Street, not to mention that the clean environment inside is in sharp contrast to the dirtiness and messiness of other places.

When Holhaiya was about to fall, he suddenly found a guy who looked like a cat at the back door of the sanatorium.

She had brown hair and was incredibly agile. She jumped lightly on the spot and jumped over the railing of the nursing home.

Holhaiya suddenly became interested, and some evil taste in her heart made her float down from the sky silently and stop behind the girl.

"A big bag of cabbage, a piece of fresh pork, a bag of rice, and some apples, should be enough for the children to eat for a while? You are really worthy of us. We are obviously poor, but we are still generous."

"But we can't let Sister Aponya catch us, otherwise she'll scold us again. Hey, it's just taking some things. Those people are rich anyway, so it doesn't matter if I take a little."

"Okay, let's put it here. The kids should find it soon. Yeah, perfect. Time for me to slip away."

The brown-haired girl clapped her hands and put her hands on her hips proudly. Just as she was about to turn around, a voice that seemed like a smile floated into her ears.

"Where are you going, little guy?"

"Wow meow!" The brown-haired girl was so scared that she jumped up on the spot and bounced up like a spring. Then she turned around and saw the culprit who scared her, who was smiling happily.

Uh, the kind of smile that is forced but not real, I always feel that I am scared inside.
