Their commission was suspicious.

Observing the show: Activated.

Shen He wasn't just watching a show; in his words, this was called "observing the world's affairs." It was one of the principles Shen He had prepared for himself based on Chen Luo's advice.

If something happens at a bar, just sit aside and observe carefully, and learn from the experience.

For example, right now.

It's fair to say that Shen He is now a qualified bystander.

“Mebius, the reason I didn’t disturb you two earlier was because I was afraid of interrupting your intimate time together. I always feel that if my future self met my present self, we would have a lot to talk about.” Chen Luo said, walking from Shen He’s table to sit down on the stool next to Mebius, saying things that even he didn’t believe.

While it's true that if your future self meets your present self, you might have a lot to say, this definitely doesn't include Möbius the Elder and Möbius the Younger.

If an ordinary person encountered their past self, they would at most look down on the other person, since it's perfectly normal to despise one's past foolish behavior.

Some slightly eccentric people might travel from the past to the present and chop off their own elbows, since it's not uncommon to want to erase some dark history.

Mebius is different. Although Chen Luo doesn't know much about him yet, just from the images left by the big Mebius described by Klein, it's enough to know how bad the relationship between the two Mebius was.

"Intimate contact? Little mouse, which eye of yours saw this? Is there something wrong with your eyes? Do you need me to give you nearsightedness surgery?" The little snake said something terrifying in a concerned tone.

Snake, please stop your Alicia behavior!

"Hmm, I don't know if my future child learned this from someone, the tone is strange, a bit like..." Big Mébius frowned as he looked at Little Mébius.

The big snake looked at the little snake and felt that the little snake's tone sounded like someone else's.

"Hmm, are you talking about Alicia? It seems like the little snake is modeled after Alicia. Apparently, it's easier to entice certain mice to participate in experiments willingly," Chen Luo quickly interjected.

"Hmm? Snake? Is that your special name for her? It sounds like you're very close." Mebius didn't care about the name Alicia, but he was very concerned about the way Chen Luo called Little Mebius.

"Oh dear, now that I know about this, shouldn't you get lost?" Little Möbius lightly brushed his index finger across his lips.

"...So, what's going on with this guy?" Big Mébius pointed at Little Mébius with a cold face.

Although Mebius and this little Mebius sat together at a table for more than half an hour, they actually only exchanged no more than 20 sentences.

Of course, Otto, who was waiting in another corner, heard all 20 sentences clearly.

These two Möbius sit here, seemingly just quietly drinking non-alcoholic beverages, but their inner thoughts could fill a 10-word short story.

"It's obvious that this is you 5 years from now. Mebius, you're so smart. After spending so much time in the bar, you must have noticed something was wrong, right? Like Kiana and the others."

Chen Luo didn't believe that Mebius hadn't discovered anything. Although Kiana tried her best to save face and cover up her lie, the effect didn't seem to be very ideal.

Especially the conversation with the blond man before Möbius arrived further confirmed this in Möbius's mind.

The blond man seemed to want to get some information from Mebius, so he generously shared all the information he knew.

After a conversation, both Mebius and the blond man were very satisfied with their gains.

And that blond man was none other than Otto.

Given Otto's personality, he's open to discussing anything as long as it doesn't prevent him from saving Kallen.

This is why Otto was so certain that the previous civilization era could indeed be connected.

"I know, I know, but the other party seems to be very hostile towards me..." Möbius squinted at his shrunken self.

The other person might really be himself 5 years in the future, as Chen Luo said, but he is definitely not his complete self. The other person feels more like some kind of spiritual entity to him.

This gave Mebius the idea of ​​a certain technology.

That technology is not perfect yet, but it appears that it will be improved and implemented in the near future.

If the other party is indeed in the state of being that I have guessed, then things seem to get quite interesting.

Hmm, should I say that's just like me?

A strange smile appeared on Möbius's face.

"Tsk." Looking at the smile on Big Mébius's face, Little Mébius was very unhappy.

Möbius Jr. naturally had countless ways to meet with his past self and deceive him, with as many reasons as he could muster, but...

Why?

Why should I let this slide?

Why should I take off my own earrings?

Why should I take off the necklace Chen Luo gave me?

Although these things may seem like some kind of pointless competitiveness, they are extremely important to the memory Möbius.

After all, he himself... was the real Möbius.

"Oh, right, answer my question, why do you and she call each other Snakes?" Mebius suddenly asked Chen Luo.

"Huh? This... is it a nickname?" Chen Luo said.

"Oh, then why do you only have a nickname for him? What about mine?" Big Mebius suddenly leaned closer to Chen Luo.

"Seriously? You're going to stir up trouble here? Let's be reasonable. I met you first, then she. According to cause and effect, isn't my nickname for her the same as my nickname for you?" Chen Luo was dumbfounded.

"Hmm, I'm not entirely satisfied with your explanation. But never mind, when are you coming to work in the lab?" Although Möbius didn't seem too happy with the answer, he put it aside for the time being and brought up the important matter.

"This..." Chen Luo was at a loss for words.

Chen Luo really couldn't find the time these past two days.

Chen Luo, of course, could not reveal that he joined Mebius's laboratory simply to get the faction exchange for the Fire Moth for free.

Moreover, Chen Luo was very interested in the large number of glittering commissions from the Fire-Chasing Moth.

For Chen Luo, the apocalypse was a kind of treasure. People living in the apocalypse have few expectations, and they are very straightforward.

Moreover, from a causal perspective, Chen Luo will inevitably become connected with the Collapsed World.

"How about the day after tomorrow? But speaking of which, you just said I'm just a figurehead receiving a salary without doing any work. So I actually get a salary?" Chen Luo was quite surprised by this.

Having a salary is fantastic.

Although Chen Luo, the Corruptor, doesn't care about this salary in the information age, it's still something he earned through his own hard work.

"The day after tomorrow is fine too. As for salary, of course there will be. My lab is a proper, officially staffed lab, so how could there be no salary, even for an intern? But you need to be careful. Cangxuan and Danzhu are discussing having you wash bottles after you arrive," Möbius warned.

"..."

Washing bottles?

When Chen Luo heard those three words, he was stunned for a moment and suddenly wondered if he had misheard.

But soon, the thoughtful Void Treasury gave Chen Luo an explanation.

In some labs, having newcomers wash bottles is like "paying homage to the boss," something many new lab employees go through.

The bottle, of course, refers to the various test tubes used in the experiments.

Of course, some laboratories don't pay attention to this.

But it's quite normal for Cangxuan and Danzhu to want to cause trouble.

Hmm, how about we give the bottle-washing job to Klein?

Chen Luo fell into deep thought.

However, this suggestion is quite in line with the character settings of Cangxuan and Danzhu.

"It's settled then, report to the lab the day after tomorrow, no lateness allowed. By the way, do you know any basic lab etiquette? Have you ever done experiments before? Do you know the basic experimental procedures?" Möbius began questioning Chen Luo.

“You don’t need to worry about that. Lolo is a scholar whose research level is at least no less than yours right now.” But before Chen Luo could answer, Little Möbius answered for him.

"Especially in performing super-transformation surgery, if we consider his skill level, he is already at the proficiency level, just like you are now, but he is far inferior to me now."

While explaining to Chen Luo, Mebius subtly showed off his knowledge.

Chen Luo suspected that Mebius was mainly trying to show off.

"Oh? That's perfect. Recently, due to the success of the fusion surgery, the number of people queuing up to have the fusion surgery in the lab has surged. My schedule is almost full. Having you here might relieve some of the pressure on me."

"As for washing bottles and such, let's leave that to Cangxuan and Danzhu, those two troublemakers. Hmm, in layman's terms, Xiao Luo, you're quite the capable wife now, aren't you?" Big Mebius looked at Chen Luo with great interest.

Chen Luo has always been mysterious, and his bar is even more mysterious, so Mebius is not surprised by anything that happens to Chen Luo.

"Please understand the true meaning of 'virtuous wife' first, okay? That's what a husband calls his wife," Chen Luo immediately corrected Mebius.

And perhaps spurred on by Little Mébius, Big Mébius also began to change how he addressed Chen Luo.

"And to be honest, although I can indeed perform super-transformation surgery, I don't have any surgical experience right now; I've only done magic experiments," Chen Luo said beforehand.

Although I, Chen Luo, am proficient in all kinds of surgeries thanks to your scalpel, I have never actually conducted a single serious scientific experiment.

The only scientific experiment I was to conduct was the one I originally planned to do with Möbius, which was about reducing the side effects of the fusion surgery.

As a result... they were outmaneuvered by Mebius.

This will bring Chen Luobai a moment of joy.

"It's alright, I'll teach you properly." Mebius looked at Chen Luo with a smile in his eyes.

"..."

Chen Luo always felt that Mebius's religion was not a proper religion.

And perhaps because of Möbius Jr., Chen Luo always felt that Möbius Sr. was planning to use him as an experiment.

I don't know if it's just Chen Luo's imagination.

"Ding-a-ling!" The wind chimes rang out.

"Hey, Eden, look! There are two Möbius!" At the same time, a melodious voice rang out.

When Chen Luo heard this, he covered his forehead with his hand, feeling a headache coming on.

Why is Alicia here?

Chapter 271 Chen Luo, the Herald of the End?

Alicia is wonderful; she's not only beautiful but also has a lovely voice, but the problem is that she came at the wrong time.

As Alicia and Eden approached, and then looked at the small table for four in front of him, Chen Luo suddenly understood.

“Perfect timing, your friends have arrived, so I won’t disturb your conversation. This table can only seat four people, so I’ll move out automatically.” Chen Luo stood up quite proactively.

Chen Luo finally found a plausible reason.

"Snap!" Just as Chen Luo was about to leave, Mebius grabbed his wrist.

“Well, even though some familiar people have come, it doesn’t mean you have to leave. You can sit on my lap,” Mebius said, pulling Chen Luo’s wrist.

"No, I'm afraid I'm too heavy," Chen Luo refused.

“It’s alright, I’m not afraid. I’m a fusion warrior after all. Although I can’t beat those terrifying Honkai Beasts, I can still sit on someone’s lap,” Mebius said.

After all, my Mebius is just a weak and delicate researcher. It would be too much to ask her to fight against ordinary Honkai Beasts.

Yes, Chen Luo was referring to the Honkai Beasts.

After saying that, Mebius gave Möbius a slightly provocative look.

Although he doesn't know what he will do in the future, at least now, if Möbius puts himself in his shoes, he can probably guess what this little Möbius is thinking.

You're too green to mess with me.

“What I said in the past made sense, Alo, come here.” Little Möbius also beckoned to Chen Luo with his finger.

"What are you doing? You seem to be having a very exciting discussion." Alicia walked over and asked excitedly, then forcibly pressed Eden into the only empty chair.

"None of your business," Little Mebius said, rolling her eyes at Alicia.

"Lolo, come here quickly," Little Mebius urged.

"What? With your size, you want Alo to sit on your lap?" Big Mebius said with a hint of teasing.

“No, you might have misunderstood. I just wanted Alo to sit in my seat, and I would sit on the other person’s lap. If you find that troublesome, Lolo, you can go back to your seat. I’ll come over.” Möbius said as he stood up.

"..." Chen Luoyan was silent for a moment.

"Oh dear, I see now. It's because of me that there aren't enough seats, and Alo is leaving. You guys are trying to keep him, right?" Alicia, who was standing to the side, suddenly realized.

“Then I won’t trouble you, Mebius. Why don’t you just let Lolo sit on my lap? Or I can sit on Lolo’s lap myself. I think I’m petite and cute, right?” Alicia said, raising her hand.

"..."
