Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

Suika was not angry, she smiled and pretended not to know him, and said seriously

"Good afternoon, you're the patient, right? This is the Rhodes Island operator's restaurant, the patient's restaurant is downstairs!"

"You, I..." Before Charmander's firecracker was lit, Hemer pressed his hand on her shoulder.

"I'm sorry, Operator... This is my patient. I'm discussing her condition with her. I apologize if it has affected you." Unlike Ifrit, Hummer saw the armband with the Rhodes Island logo on Suika's arm at a glance.

Those without armbands are not necessarily operators, but those with armbands definitely are.

That's why she spoke up directly to stop Ifrit and avoid a conflict between her and the people of Rhodes Island.

"Operator...you?" Ifrit was full of disbelief when he heard what Hummer said. After all, the other party didn't look as old as him.

Suika raised her eyebrows

"Why, it doesn't look like it?"

"You don't look even older than me..." Ifrit compared his height to show his dissatisfaction.

"It's not about height. I can become a Rhodes Island operator because of my real ability." Suika said with a smile.

"Hmph, I'm strong too, okay?"

"I don't believe it!" Before Ifrit could mention her condition, Suika's words made her blush on the spot.

"Ahhhh, I'm angry!"

Ifrit was about to explode, but Hemer used his skill to grab the back of her neck, interrupting the explosion effect and weakening Ifrit.

Just when Ifrit was about to be enraged by Suika, Hemer grabbed her neck, and she pouted to suppress her anger.

At this moment, Suika walked up to the two of them and extended her hand to Ifrit.

"Hahaha, sorry, it's mainly because you look so interesting.

My name is Ibuki Suika, nice to meet you."

Ifrit bared his teeth and looked fierce.

"Don't think I'll forgive you if you do this, Ibuki Suika, right? I'll remember you. My name is Ifrit, and I'll definitely defeat you."

At this moment, Hemer grabbed Suika's hand

"Are you Suika?"

"Um... hello, Dr. Hemer." Suika smiled politely after being startled by Hemer's enthusiasm.

"You know me?" Hemer looked flattered.

“…She just called your name, and no one in Rhodes Island dares to wear this kind of clothes except the doctors working there.” Suika pointed at Ifrit and then at Hummer’s coat.

"So that's how it is... But it's a small matter. I didn't expect that I would have the honor of meeting you." Although a little embarrassed, Hemer obviously didn't care about this embarrassment at all, and still held Suika's hand very enthusiastically.

"Hemer, what are you doing?" Seeing that Hemer was so familiar with the strange woman in front of him, Ifrit expressed that he was a little jealous.

Hemer looked at Ifrit and said seriously

"She's Suika, the one who created the new blocking agent.

She saved your life, thank her."

As Hemer said this, he reached out and pressed Ifrit's shoulder.

Seeing this, Suixiang immediately stopped

“Not so, not so…

Dr. Hemer, I am not a doctor either, I am just an ordinary person.

Although this blocker is related to me, I dare not take credit for it and say that I invented it.

If you want to thank someone, just thank the person who created the blocker. I just promised to give the formula of this drug to a trusted organization for production and sale."

Suika said to Hemer sincerely.

After all, this thing was not made by her. If she insisted on using this title, what if a few experts and scholars came and held a meeting and asked Cuixiang to come on stage and explain how she developed this thing? Wouldn't that be a big deal?

"But if it weren't for you, this potion that can completely affect the entire world situation might not have appeared." As soon as Hemer said this, Suixiang knew that she knew a lot.

"But I didn't invent that either. Um... If you really want to thank me, buy me lunch!"

Suika pointed to the cafeteria not far away.

"Okay, no problem!" Hemer readily agreed to Suika's request.

At this time, Ifrit also remembered where he had heard the name Suika.

She was a little surprised. She had always thought that the person who made this potion should be an old man like Parvis in Rhine Life, or at least someone who looked very smart like Dr. Kal'tsit.

But she didn't expect that the girl Suika whom she wrote down in the little notebook was actually a girl younger than herself, and her personality seemed to be very bad.

Just when she was wondering whether she should thank the other party for saving her life with the medicine, Suixiang grabbed her.

"What are you standing there for? Let's eat!" After saying that, Suixiang pulled her towards the restaurant.

"Hey, we don't seem to know each other well..." Ifrit said that it's not common for someone to hold a girl's hand just after meeting her.

She felt like she was becoming a monster in front of Suika.

Soon the three of them found a place in the restaurant. Hemer said she was going to buy food and left the two of them sitting there.

Suika looked at Ifrit. As a critically ill patient, the Originium crystals on this Charmander's body were very conspicuous in her memory. There were Originium crystals on all four of her limbs.

The long-term high concentration of Originium disease has caused her to be in constant pain.

This is also the reason why she has a bad temper.

At this time, Suixiang discovered that there were no Originium crystals on her arms and legs.

"What are you looking at?" Ifrit, who was frightened by Suika's gaze, couldn't help but ask.

Suika pointed to her arm, where there was a spot that was noticeably whiter and tenderer than the surrounding area.

"This place must have been a source stone crystal before!"

Ifrit looked at the place Suika pointed at. It used to be one of the most painful parts of his body, but now it's gone.

Less than half a year after coming here for treatment from Colombia, the crystals on her body surface fell off one after another. At least from the outside, she looked like a normal person.

Chapter 472: How to Break the Ice

These days in Rhodes Island can be said to be the happiest time for Ifrit.

He no longer needs to take painkillers to fall asleep every day, and people around him don't look at him strangely. Hemer has even registered himself to attend classes at a school in Rhodes Island.

She said that the children there were about her age or younger, so she could learn to get along with people her own age.

It was all so beautiful that for a moment she thought it was just a dream.

The one who allowed him to enjoy this beautiful dream was the person in front of him, Suika.

If it weren't for the magical potion she brought, Hemer wouldn't have been able to move freely without worry.

“That’s right, there was a piece of Originium crystal here before.

Even with the new drug, it took three or four months for the crystals to fall off.

By the way, the crystal is still in my dorm room. I secretly asked Joyce to leave it for me.

Joyce was the doctor who came to Rhode Island with Homer and me. I remember her registered name in Rhode Island was White-faced Owl, or something like that.

Ifrit's temper comes and goes quickly.

Just now he was outside, looking wary of bad guys, but now he has become a good friend who can talk about anything.

"Well, it would be very painful if the oripathy got that bad!"

Suixiang has never had oripathy, and her body is the same as Blademaster's, which is not susceptible to oripathy at all, so she cannot understand the extent of that pain.

Ifrit nodded calmly

"Indeed, there was a period of time in Colombia when I was in so much pain that I couldn't sleep at all. If it weren't for Hemer and Saria staying with me every day, I don't think I would have been able to hold on.

But for some reason, after arriving in Rhodes Island, Hemer wouldn't allow me to meet Saria..."

As Ifrit said this, his mood visibly dropped.

Suika pulled out her phone and said, "You know what this is!"

"I know, it's just a cell phone!" Ifrit said he was not a fool.

"As long as you become an Operator of Rhodes Island, you can apply for a communicator and obtain the phone numbers of other Operators from the Human Resources Department..."

Suika raised her eyebrows when she said this, and seeing Ifrit's excited look, she put her hand on her shoulder.

“Although I don’t know why Dr. Hemer doesn’t allow you to meet with Saria, I think there must be a serious misunderstanding.

I can feel Hemer's love for you, and the sincerity of this feeling is beyond doubt.

She's so resistant to you meeting Saria, most likely because she thinks Saria will hurt you...

Don't be anxious, just listen to me.

But I've seen Saria in the operator list of Rhodes Island.

The fact that she can become a member of Rhodes Island and even a captain shows that she is not a bad person.

And they are definitely not the kind of people who are hostile to infected people, because such people would never pass the inspection of the Human Resources Department.

So, I guess there is a big misunderstanding here, and this misunderstanding is related to you.

However, due to certain circumstances, the two did not explain the misunderstanding clearly, which led to Hemer's hostility towards Saria and his refusal to let you meet her.

If you just want to meet Saria secretly, there are ten thousand ways to do it in Rhodes Island.

But this made Hemer realize that she would be sad and upset.

So the best way is for you to personally resolve this misunderstanding and untie Hemer's knot. Only in this way can the relationship between the adults be restored to normal, and then you can see Saria openly whenever you want."

Suika naturally knew about the emotional entanglement among the three-person group of Rhine Life.

Although not as entangled as the dance trio, it is still a mess.

But it is better than the other group. Although this group is in chaos, there is a core, and that is Ifrit.

And Ifrit is not a fool. On the contrary, she is quite smart, but she seems a little impulsive because of her temper.

Cuixiang was certain that as long as she was willing to use her brain, investigate the situation, and personally participate in the mediation, she would definitely be able to straighten out her parents' love story.

After all, one of them is a stubborn person, and the other has a stubborn temper. If it weren't for the Rhine Life incident that forced the two of them to cooperate, they would have misunderstood each other for the rest of their lives.

"I understand!" Ifrit nodded heavily.

"What do you understand?" At this moment, Hemer came over with food.

She had a rare smile on her face

"It seems like you guys are having a good chat. Ifrit, you should learn from Suika."

"Haha, there's no need to learn from me. Ifrit is a person with great potential.

I believe she will become a very great person."

Suika took the food from Hemer with an affirmative look on her face.

Hearing his child being praised by outsiders, Hemer's smile became even gentler.

"I heard that Operator Suika is also a disaster messenger?" Hemer asked after sitting down.

"Yes, I am indeed a Messenger of Natural Disaster, but I am not an academic. I learned everything bit by bit based on the notes of the master." Suixiang said with some emotion.

He had memorized the notes thoroughly and had previously donated them to the library in Rhodes Island. It was this handwritten note of the Scourge Messenger that truly started his journey as a Scourge Messenger.

Before, I was just a long-distance errand runner.

"The work of a Scourge Messenger is very dangerous, right? When I was in Lai... Columbia, I often heard about Scourge Messengers getting infected while tracking Scourges."

After Hemer finished speaking, Suika nodded.

"In order to obtain first-hand intelligence about the Scourge, many Scourge messengers would risk their lives to go deep inside the Scourge to record it.

You also know that whether it is a natural disaster that is currently occurring or a place that has been ravaged by a natural disaster, the concentration of Originium is very high, and Originium particles are everywhere on the surface. If you are accidentally scratched or stabbed, you will become infected.

Therefore, the Scourge Messenger who chases after the Scourge is indeed the most dangerous profession.

However, my Originium skills are very special and can avoid the risk of being infected by Originium to a large extent.

That's why I became the Messenger of Scourge."
