I said you are all war criminals

Doma Mai also joined in the fun: "That's right, Hongxia must be hiding some secret!"

She reached a hand out from the hamster blanket, grabbed a handful of potato chips and stuffed them into her mouth, chewing them with a crunching sound.

Hong Xia felt like she was about to collapse. These guys were just enjoying the fun!

"Really, it's nothing!"

Hong Xia's voice became weaker and weaker, and her eyes wandered around, trying to find an excuse to escape.

Hongxia felt like a suckling pig roasted over a fire, sizzling and oozing with oil, about to be burnt. The expectant eyes of Ichiri and Domama were like two sharp knives piercing her heart. She took a deep breath, knowing that she couldn't escape today.

"Okay, okay, I'll show you!"

Hong Xia finally gave in, her tone filled with helplessness, "But after you've watched this, you absolutely cannot tell anyone! Especially Bai Ye, do you hear me?"

"no problem!"

Ichiri and Tsuchima answered in unison, both with triumphant smiles on their faces. They had long expected Hongxia to give in; after all, she couldn't withstand their combined attack.

Hongxia pulled out a folder from her bag. After hesitating for a moment, she finally handed the folder to Yili.

"Here, let's take a look."

Hongxia's voice was as low as a mosquito's hum, and her cheeks were as red as ripe apples.

Yili took the folder and opened it eagerly. What caught his eye was a finely detailed color page with an operating table, a blonde woman being treated on it, and a blue-haired doctor.

The blonde woman looks a bit like Hong Xia.

And that doctor...

"Isn't this Bai Ye-ge?"

Yili said foolishly. 】

"what?"

Bai Ye said stupidly.

Chapter 113: Preparing to Start Building [Relationship]

Hakuno pressed the simulator a few times, causing it to project the untitled doujinshi.

When the projection came on, Hakuno immediately looked at the doujinshi cover. The blonde girl on the cover was wearing a daring, tight outfit and posing provocatively. Though her face had aged a few years, she still bore a resemblance to Hong Xia. The other doctor, with blue hair and a white coat, was indeed himself. However, his left hand had been replaced with a skinless, metallic, bionic arm. The wiring and components were clearly visible, creating a cyberpunk vibe. This made it clear that he wasn't just any doctor, but a cyborg.

Bai Ye looked at the picture on the projection and turned the page with mixed feelings.

The first page introduces the setting. Hongxia sets the story in a near-future city characterized by advanced technology yet a stark disparity between the rich and the poor. Skyscrapers soar to the heavens, neon lights flash, yet the streets are filled with filthy garbage and ragged homeless people. The scene then shifts to a dimly lit operating room. A pale Hongxia lies on the operating table, her abdomen opened, revealing her internal organs with remarkable realism. Shirono, wearing surgical magnifying glasses and wielding a laser scalpel, performs a scalpel surgery on Hongxia.

The following pages detailed the process of Hongxia's prosthetic transformation. From the installation of the artificial heart to the implantation of reinforced bones to the reconstruction of the nervous system, each step was accompanied by detailed anatomical and mechanical diagrams, almost like a professional medical textbook. On one page, Shiro even saw a vivid image of Hongxia's brain being opened and a chip, glowing blue, being implanted.

However, I have to admit that the art and storyline of this doujinshi are both quite outstanding. The subsequent battle scenes, in particular, are full of dynamism and tension. Nijiya's prosthetic body displays astonishing strength and speed during the battle, and the storyboards are quite impressive.

Bai Ye quickly flipped through the following pages and found that there was no content after page 20. It seemed that Hong Xia had not yet thought about the following content.

...Yes, this is indeed a very exciting comic, but its "excitement" is not what Hakuno imagined.

Bai Ye felt like his brain was shutting down.

This style of painting, this plot, this bloody story... Bai Ye swallowed subconsciously and tapped the simulator.

Hong Xia lowered her head, her fingers nervously twisting the corner of her clothes, her face flushed so red it looked like blood was about to drip out.

"that……"

Bai Ye manipulated Ichiri and said, "What's next? What about the subsequent plot?"

Yili's voice pulled Hongxia back from the abyss of shame. She raised her head suddenly, her eyes flickering like a frightened deer.

"As for the follow-up... well, I haven't thought about it yet."

"Eh? Such a wonderful story, how can there be no sequel?"

Doma Mai also joined in the fun, coming closer with an excited look on her face. "Tell me, what's going to happen next? How will Dr. Hakuno transform Hong Xia? Will he give her rocket thrusters or laser eyes?"

Hongxia's face turned even redder, and she stammered, "No, no! Just some ordinary modifications..."

"Ordinary transformation?"

Gokou Ruri asked, "For example, transform Hongxia into a battle angel and let her save the world?"

[“No, no way!”

Hong Xia's voice was almost inaudible. "It's just some...some functional modifications..."

“Functional transformation?”

Tsuchima's eyes sparkled. "For example, could we equip her with a robotic arm that can automatically cook and wash clothes?"

【"or,"

Sena interrupted, "Give her prosthetic fingers that can play the guitar automatically?"

"You, that's enough!"

Hong Xia finally couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up suddenly and snatched the folder away, "I won't show it to you!"

【"Don't, Hongxia,"

Kirino quickly grabbed her arm and said, "We're just curious! How can we give up on such an exciting story halfway?"

"That's right,"

Doma Mai also chimed in, "Just tell me, what will happen next?"

[Hong Xia was so annoyed by them that she could only sigh helplessly.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you..."

She sat down again, took a deep breath, and began to tell the subsequent plot she had conceived.

"After completing the initial prosthetic transformation, I possessed extraordinary strength and speed. To test my new abilities, Hakuno brought me to a gang's ring..."

Hong Xia said so. 】

As Hongxia tells the story, a sci-fi world gradually unfolds before Baiye's eyes. In that world, Hongxia shuttles through the hail of bullets and engages in fierce battles with various enemies.

Bai Ye silently watched Hong Xia's every move and provided her with technical support from time to time.

【"Then……"

Hongxia's voice suddenly paused, a hint of hesitation on her face, "Then... Bai Ye will find that my prosthetic transformation is not perfect. There is a malfunction between the chip in my body and my flesh, causing my emotions to become extremely unstable..."

"What's the problem?"

Yili asked.】

[Hong Xia bit her lip, her eyes wandering.]

"That...that malfunction will cause...will cause me...to fall in love with Hakuno..."

[The room fell into a strange silence.]

[The usually calm Gokogen Ruri couldn't help but cough lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

"Ahem, well... this is just a comic, it can't be accurate."

She tried to ease the awkwardness with a lighthearted tone, but Hongxia was still embarrassed.

【It was also very embarrassing.】

"I'm not that embarrassed. A handsome man like me would be loved by anyone."

Bai Ye lifted his hair and said confidently.

"But I can't let you fall in love with me, Hongxia—"

"Hongxia, do you like Bai Ye?"

Yili asked softly. 】

Her voice was soft, as if she was afraid of being hurt.

"No, no, no, I don't like Hakuno,"

Hong Xia was surprisingly straightforward and waved her hands repeatedly, "You know that Hakuno has a girlfriend, Takamatsu-san. He thinks he's hiding it well, but I saw them riding the Ferris wheel together last time!"

"So, what's this comic about?"

Ichiri raised his voice, which was unusual for him, "Your words and actions are completely contradictory!"

Bai Ye pondered for a moment, then typed another sentence.

[“I don’t want to see you, Hongxia, so humble…”]

[With tears in my eyes, I said this.]

Chapter 114: Love Story.

[“What I mean is, Hongxia, you are so outstanding, you shouldn’t trap yourself in unrequited love.”

Yili tried hard to make his tone sound like an elder's admonition rather than a jealous complaint.

[However, after saying this, Ichiri, who had just mustered up the courage, immediately lost his temper, "Ah, I'm sorry, Hongxia, I didn't... I didn't mean that..."]

Hong Xia shook her head and forced a smile: "It's okay, Yili, I know you're doing this for my own good."

Although she said this, a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes.

For Hongxia, the cyborg doctor Hakuno is not the future, but the past.

During that time when the sword and the sword were rampant, Hong Xia had already given up on continuing her future with Bai Ye. Or rather, Hong Xia had never thought about these romantic matters.

If it weren't for this life, she decided to take it easy, and perhaps this fan fiction would never have been created.

[“I’m not! I’m not saying anything bad about Hong Xia! What I mean is…that…”

Yili's face flushed crimson, her hands waving wildly in the air. She wanted to explain that she simply felt sorry for Hongxia, not that she found her unrequited love pathetic, nor did she mean to belittle her feelings. But the words were on her lips, and she couldn't form the right words.

"Okay, I know what you mean..."

Hong Xia looked away, "It's just a doujinshi. I use Hakuno...just because Hakuno is the only boy around me."

Looking at the lingering loneliness on Hongxia's face, Yili felt like a mixture of all five flavors, with sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty all coming to mind, but there was no sweetness.

"That, that..."

I stuttered, racking my brains to find a new topic, "Hongxia, what kind of music do you like to listen to now?"

After asking this question, she wanted to bite off her tongue. This way of changing the subject was too abrupt!

What are you trying to do, Goto Ichiri, by asking your bandmates questions like this?

Fortunately, Hongxia didn't seem to notice Yili's embarrassment. She sighed softly, as if pulling herself away from memories. "Well, I've been listening to Afterglow's songs lately. I find them very powerful."

Kirino Kousaka suddenly interrupted, "Afterglow? I like it too! Their live performances are amazing, especially the lead singer, Mitakeran, who's absolutely amazing!"

As Kirino spoke, she imitated Mitakeran's signature head-shaking movement, and her long, smooth hair fluttered in the air, just like an idol star's stage performance.

Ichiri stared at Kirino blankly. Her sparkling look made Ichiri feel like a country girl.

Kirino is like a model who walked out of a fashion magazine. She exudes confidence in every move she makes. She is from a completely different world from a woman like herself who hides in the corner.

"Yes, really..."

Yili responded softly, feeling that even his breathing had become cautious in front of this glittering "big shot".

Kirino didn't seem to notice Ichiri's awkwardness and continued chatting excitedly: "You know, Afterglow's new song "Destiny" is really good--"

Ichiri tried hard to keep up with Kirino's rhythm, but her mind was filled with Kirino's dazzling light, and she couldn't hear what she was saying at all. She felt like an ugly duckling who had strayed onto the dance floor, and everything around her made her feel out of place.

"Uh-huh……"

Yili could only nod in agreement, but in her heart she was thinking about how to quickly escape from this "social occasion" that was suffocating her.

"By the way, Yili, which is your favorite band?"

Kirino suddenly threw the topic to her.

At first I felt like a poor student who was called upon by the teacher to answer a question. I was so nervous that my palms began to sweat.
