K424 of the Collapse World

In fact, she had already used the terminal to materialize a small quantum fighter, activated the cloaking device and parked it on the roof of the hotel. As long as something was not right, she would immediately run to the roof, start the aircraft and rush to where Lan Feng was.

(…It seems that Sister Sis’s actions this time are indeed not dangerous… That’s why she asked me to stay here and protect the safety of others.)

Kiana thought silently, and after a long period of hesitation, she finally put down the communicator in her hand, stretched, and lay down on the bed.

"Okay! Since there is nothing wrong over there, I must not let my sister down. I must do this seriously and not let anything happen to anyone!"

She muttered to herself, turned over and sat up, turning off the terminal's light screen.

(Although everyone seems to be fine, I just don’t know how Elena is doing now. She seemed very depressed before. I should go check on her first…)

As she was thinking, Kiana was about to go to Elena's room when there was a hurried knock on the door outside her room, followed by an anxious girl's voice.

"Kiana! Kiana, are you there?!"

"Lillian, please keep your voice down... I'm really fine..."

(Lillian...and Claire? Why are they so anxious? Did something happen?)

Qi

Although Yana was confused, she quickly opened the door.

Lillian supported Claire, who looked helpless, and hurried into Kiana's room. She asked Claire to sit on the edge of the bed, and then half-forced her to take off her coat.

"Kiana... look at Claire's shoulders...!"

"I told you it's nothing..."

"Shut up!"

"..."

Following Lillian's scolding, Claire wilted and let the other party gently hold up her right arm for Kiana beside her to see.

"What...what's going on?"

Kiana came closer and was shocked to see a large dark blue patch near Claire's shoulder, some blood seeping from the skin, and even her shoulder blade was deformed.

"Claire...! How do you feel? Where did these injuries come from?"

Kiana asked hurriedly, but Lillian shook her head and turned her gaze to Claire.

Facing Kiana and Lillian's questioning and worried looks, Claire looked embarrassed.

"This...can I not tell you? Well, it seems that I can't...but please, don't tell anyone, especially don't let Elena know..."

Hearing this, Lillian frowned, and a look of realization appeared on her face.

"Elena...? Ah! Could it be that time..."

"Don't be so loud... This was originally an unintentional mistake made by that child. If she knew about this, she would probably be very sad and feel very guilty..."

Not caring about her almost crippled shoulder, Claire wiped the sweat from her forehead with her other hand and sighed softly...

In the empty dormitory building of the Cocolia Orphanage, two girls were talking face to face. One of them had a frown on her face, while the other looked helpless.

The girl with a frown on her face was naturally Lan Feng. She had just heard Xier's stigmata explain the transformation that had taken place in Xing over the past two years. This was completely beyond Lan Feng's expectations. Even though she had saved Xing and taught her a lot of common sense in life, she still became like the one in the original novel.

A belligerent and brutal anti-entropic combatant...

"…That's about it. Ever since she became like that, she's become more and more rebellious, and even started to hate Seele. In this place, she won't listen to anyone except Cocolia."

Xier said, pursing her lips slightly.

"So, in order to protect Xi'er, I won't pamper her like others do. But... for your sake, I won't harm her life."

Lan Feng nodded, seeming a little absent-minded.

"Thank you... But, is fate really unchangeable? I finally brought her from that hell to the orphanage... but she ended up like that."

Lan Feng was talking to herself, looking a little depressed. Hearing her words, Xier was stunned, and her expression became a little strange.

"Siris, you really don't know why Xing became like this?"

"Xi'er" asked hesitantly. Thinking of Xing's highly suggestive behavior two years ago, she couldn't imagine that Shirley didn't realize the feelings Xing had for her...

"How would I know?" Lan Feng spread his hands. "I've been away for two years. How would I know what Xing has been through during this time? However, it should have something to do with our mother. In addition, no matter how powerful the intelligence department of my organization is, Cocolia is not a pushover. It is still quite difficult to directly obtain intelligence in this area..."

172 Parting & Meeting>>

After hearing Lan Feng's serious explanation, "Xier" rolled her eyes and suddenly didn't want to talk anymore.

She clearly remembered that Xing's personality changed drastically after Shirley left. Moreover, Xing directly occupied Shirley's original room and told everyone in the orphanage that it was Shirley's room and no one was allowed to enter.

Moreover, Xing mentioned Shirley's name every three sentences, and often stood in front of Shirley's original door in a daze. From these points of view, it is clear who is the culprit of this matter.

(But, that slow-witted guy... still didn't notice it...)

Not seeing the helpless expression on "Xier's" face, Lan Feng sighed, with a hint of pity on his face, and gently stroked the hair on her forehead.

"Forget it... There's nothing we can do about it now. I can only find another opportunity to talk to you later, Xing..."

Xing's injuries were obviously not going to make her wake up soon. Lan Feng looked at her swollen face and frowned. After a little thought, he took out a medicine from the small bag on his waist, stabbed the syringe into Xing's wrist, and injected the medicine into her body.

"what is this?"

"It's a highly effective wartime medicine that speeds up recovery. Anyway, she looks a little too pitiful like this."

Lan Feng said as she slowly picked up Xing and walked towards "Xi'er". She looked at the girl's face as she slept peacefully.

Pang, Lan Feng suddenly felt something strange.

"Wait, has she really become a cold-blooded and cruel person? But why... when I was talking to her just now, she felt exactly the same as she was two years ago? Apart from the changes in her appearance, I can't tell at all that she has become what you said..."

Hearing this, "Xier" glanced at her indifferently.

"That's probably because she saw you."

"Ok?"

"You really don't understand? Or you just can't believe it?"

Lan Feng was slightly stunned, then slowly lowered her head. She was not a straight man with zero emotional intelligence, she just didn't want to think about many things that way...

"That's impossible. I just treat her as my sister..."

Lan Feng hesitated, and finally threw out a sister card. "Xi'er" heard this and sighed again.

"Okay, then just pretend I didn't say anything. By the way, Shirley, since you care so much about Xing, why don't you just take her away? Cocolia isn't here today, so Xing should be happy to be with you, right?"

She asked somewhat puzzled and wanted to say something, but Lan Feng's expression suddenly became a little tired and he just shook his head gently.

"That's not good. I have my own plans. And I came here secretly this time, so it's not convenient for me to take anyone out...

Lan Feng said this, holding Xing and walking towards "Xier".

"But, sooner or later, I will come back to find Xing. After all, I promised to take care of her..."

Lan Feng said this, handed the girl in his arms to "Xier", took two steps back, and stood at the entrance of the stairs.

"I don't have much time left. If I stay any longer, the chances of being exposed will be very high. See you again if we are lucky enough, my friend..."

As he spoke, Lan Feng's figure slowly disappeared, leaving only Xier holding Xing in the corridor.

On the other side, in the hotel in the town, Claire also explained the reason for her injury.

"This was done by...Elena?"

"I've already told you that this was just an accidental injury... and it's not that serious, you're really making a fuss out of nothing..."

Claire muttered, but when she saw Lillian's stern face, she quickly stopped talking.

It must be said that as a partner for many years, Lillian was not so easily deceived. She easily noticed Claire's abnormal behavior and then discovered her injuries.

"Okay, I get it... I won't tell Elena. So please don't move! We will treat you..."

Seeing the serious injury, Kiana was also a little flustered. Unlike the time when she stabbed Lan Feng, Claire was not a Honkai creature, so she could not directly use Honkai energy to repair Claire's body. In other words, she had to use normal treatment methods.

But she managed to calm herself down and opened the terminal to look for healing medicine, but just as she took out a recovery syringe, she suddenly stopped.

"No... Your bones have shifted after they were broken. If you use the recovery agent directly, there is an 80% chance that the bones will be deformed after they heal. Claire! You need specialized treatment..."

"But with our identities, it would be very risky for us to go to a large hospital in this kind of place, right? Remember what Shiris said, this place is the territory of the anti-entropy radicals. As conservative members, it's not a good idea for us to move around here at will, right?"

Claire spoke calmly, as if she was not the one injured. For some reason, she didn't care about the horrible looking wound at all...

"Indeed... We can't rely on the medical facilities here. We have to wait until we get back to perform the surgery! However, we should stabilize your injuries first..."

Kiana said as she hurried to the door.

"Lillian, you guys stay here for now. I'm going to go to a nearby clinic to buy some stents and bandages. These things can't be found in the terminal's quantum network..."

By the end of her words, she had left the room and hurried towards the clinic which was across the street from the hotel.

"I hope this kind of small place doesn't require ID checks..."

While talking to herself, Kiana opened the door and walked in.

Looking around, she saw a man in a white coat at the counter, talking to a blonde woman. On the bed next to them, lay an unconscious little gray-haired girl.

Seeing this, Kiana frowned slightly.

(Is there already a patient? Never mind. There’s only one patient. If I wait a little longer, I should still be able to make it in time.)

Thinking of this, she had no choice but to stand aside and wait silently.

the other side……

"The child is not in any danger, but the two broken ribs are still very troublesome. Remember, he must rest! Alas... It's so pitiful. What kind of inhumane person would be so cruel to such a young child..."

The middle-aged doctor spoke seriously, looking at the haggard gray-haired girl with some pity, and sighed.

A sound.

"Well, please, doctor."

The blonde woman said this calmly, nodded slightly, and placed the crumpled banknote on the counter.

The doctor didn't notice that the woman's arm was shaking slightly. He just looked at the denomination of the banknote, opened the cash register, pinched out a few pieces of change, and handed them to the blonde woman in front of him.

Casually stuffing the change into her pocket, the blonde woman left the counter and carefully picked up the girl on the bed.

At this time, Kiana saw that the treatment was over, so she walked over slowly.

"Hello, I want to buy some medical supplies."

Kiana said politely with a polite smile, but before the doctor could say anything, the blonde who was about to leave suddenly stopped and turned around in shock...

"Siris?"

Hearing the name, Kiana's pupils shrank slightly, and she immediately turned around and looked at the strange blonde woman.

On the other side, when the blonde saw the face of the silver-haired girl, she was stunned, her purple eyes filled with undisguised astonishment.

But soon, she came back to her senses, her expression was gloomy, but her eyes became somewhat complicated.

"It's really you... Shirisi!"

173 Is This My Grandma?

Cocolia looked at the silver-haired girl in front of her and was completely confused for a moment.

Originally, she was just passing by the clinic on her way back from meeting Fenrir and treating the injured "Silver Wolf". But she never expected that the girl who betrayed her would appear in front of her at this time...

Cocolia took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. Her pupils, which had dilated due to shock, focused again and locked onto the silver-haired girl in front of her.

"Why did you come back...? What is your purpose? Tell me! Shirisi!"

She originally wanted to question the other party calmly, as she had done in the past, without revealing her emotions and just using her eyes to put pressure on the other party.

But even though she thought so, when she opened her mouth, the irritability and depression in her heart were exposed directly in her tone!

But there was nothing that could be done about it. Cocolia had to admit that the unexpected situation had upset her mood, and her mood at the moment was completely written on her face.

Thanks to this, she subconsciously ignored the discussion she had with Fenrir the day before about the two silver-haired girls. After all, watching a video and talking face to face gave people completely different feelings.

Cocolia took a deep breath and gently placed the girl in her arms back on the bed. She raised her head again and met the silver-haired girl in front of her with sharp eyes.

"Answer me immediately, Shilis...what is your purpose here?"

Following Cocolia's cold voice, the atmosphere around them seemed to drop to freezing point in an instant. The old doctor behind the counter shuddered and subconsciously placed his hand next to the alarm bell under the corner of the table, considering whether to call the police.

But this feeling disappeared in an instant. The old man looked at the two women, one big and one small, in front of him, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

(Young people nowadays are becoming more and more aggressive...)

He finally gave up pressing the alarm, turned around and sat on the chair behind the counter, no longer paying attention to what was happening in the hall.
