Their commission was suspicious.

The meal didn't last long.

The main problem is that everyone here eats too fast.

As for Chen Luo, who cooked this meal, the children all hope that he will stay and become a full-time chef.

Chen Luo naturally refused.

After finishing their meal, Chen Luo and the others didn't rush to leave. They strolled around the sanatorium and played with the children for a while longer.

Chen Luo didn't care about it, but Hua seemed to like the atmosphere.

After all, the opposing captain hasn't been dead for long, so it's good to play around for a while.

Aponia welcomed Chen Luo's arrival.

Qian Jie neither welcomed nor rejected Chen Luo's arrival, but at least Chen Luo's cooking was good, which left a relatively good impression on him.

"Thank you for the lunch you made today, Luo. The children enjoyed it very much. However, I'll probably have to worry about how to get them to eat properly for the next two days," Aponia said with a sigh.

This kind of thing can only be described as "no comparison, no harm."

Although the food at the sanatorium is quite good, it depends on what it's compared to.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

"Kids always need to experience the harsh realities of society. If they don't eat next time, just tell them that if they don't eat properly, their brother Luo won't be coming for a few days."

"Anyway, let's get them to eat first." Chen Luo had quite a bit of experience in this regard.

It's just about coaxing the child to eat, isn't it?

"Alright, that's one way. But Twilight Street isn't a very safe place, so if possible, don't come here too often."

“Although the children may miss your cooking, it’s not a good idea for them to come back to Twilight Street for it,” Aponia said to Chen Luo.

"Thanks for the reminder, but since you've given me such advice, I'll give you some advice too. While it's truly touching that you've provided a home for the children, having so many Honkai patients gathered together isn't a good thing. Who knows when some disaster might break out?" Chen Luo said, looking at the children who were playing.

Chen Luo dislikes unruly children, but fortunately, the children here are relatively well-behaved.

Perhaps because they experienced the pain of Honkai disease at a young age, they all seemed more mature.

"...Luo, are you someone from some special organization?" Aponia asked after a moment of silence following Chen Luo's words.

"how you said that?"

"While carrying a gun on Twilight Street isn't anything particularly strange, Hua possesses a well-trained, soldier-like aura. And being so young yet so full of energy, he doesn't seem like a simple soldier," Aponia said calmly.

"Speaking of which, I really have to thank you, Aponia. I could tell that Hua hasn't been in a good mood lately, but after spending some time with you, he seemed a little more cheerful."

Perhaps it was because his captain died in front of him that the impact on China was so great.

Although Chen Luo had tried his best to be there for her, she still couldn't quite process what was happening.

The other party also frequently goes to the training room, trying to bury everything in endless training.

Chen Luo felt that things couldn't continue like this, so he brought Hua out to relax.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier for Chen Luo to simply throw his doll clone into the Fire Chaser and then change his appearance to drink orange juice on Dusk Street?

“No need for thanks. I just noticed she still had a furrowed brow even in her spare time, so I asked her a few questions,” Aponia said.

"Back to me, I'm probably not really part of any special organization. I'm just an assistant, and Hua is just accompanying me out for a stroll. After all, she's under a lot of pressure. But I'm telling you the truth: too many Honkai patients gathering together can lead to bad things. I can't say any more."

“But I feel like my persuasion is probably useless. You still won’t give up on these children, will you?” Chen Luo said.

“That’s true. If I had simply known what was going to happen and then ignored it, I wouldn’t have brought them all here in the first place.”

"But is Honkai disease really incurable?" Aponia asked with a sigh.

"Currently, Honkai disease is indeed incurable. However, things may change in the future..."

Honkai disease is indeed not incurable. If serum is available, it is possible to cure Honkai disease, but a single dose of serum would need to be extracted from more than a thousand Honkai disease patients.

Current technology is simply not capable of making people in this world ignore the Honkai disease.

Just like Oripathy on Terra, it plagues Oripathy sufferers on Terra almost endlessly.

Chen Luo's Imaginary Tree Stigmata does contain knowledge that could even completely solve the Honkai disease problem, but Chen Luo dares not use it.

Putting aside the fact that Chen Luo simply cannot explain the origin of the Honkai disease inhibitor, if this thing really solved all the Honkai disease problems of the previous civilization, it would definitely have a huge impact on future history.

If these people were to use this Honkai Impact 3rd inhibitor to research something even more advanced, it could cause the threat level of the entire pre-civilization to explode.

Chen Luo often sensed the same sense of powerlessness that Emiya Kiritsugu had—the powerlessness in the face of choices between civilizations, and the urge to escape.

But there's no escaping it.

What Chen Luo can do now is not to save more people, but to spread the Human Orange Juice Project around the world as soon as possible.

In this plan, the power of faith and the river god's abilities were of great help.

"Are you a doctor?" Aponia suddenly asked.

“You could say that. But my medical focus is on clinical trials and surgery. And right now I’m just an assistant,” Chen Luo said in response to Aponia’s sudden question.

"Will the wish to solve the Honkai disease be realized one day? Will the world truly be free of disease and disaster one day?" Aponia looked at Chen Luo and slowly uttered the question.

It was as if this was the question that had been weighing on Aponia's mind for a long time.

“??? Aponia, I’m just a doctor, and currently an assistant. These things you’re saying are putting a lot of pressure on me,” Chen Luo said helplessly.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I just don't know why we got onto this topic, and I have this feeling that maybe you really can do some things. I don't know why I have this inexplicable trust in you. You must have a lot of friends, right?" Aponia smiled and shook her head.

Aponia realized how unreasonable she had been.

"Trust?" Upon hearing these three words, Chen Luo subconsciously recalled his achievements as a champion of justice.

The special skill of this Justice Messenger achievement seems rather mediocre, and it doesn't even increase initial favorability.

But now it seems that perhaps the biggest effect of this achievement is to increase trust.

Of course, there's also the possibility that Chen Luo could actually do this, which was foreseen by Aponia's "Sky Eye".

However, Aponia's way of speaking to Chen Luo really put a lot of pressure on him.

Every conversation must come to an end. Chen Luo and his group had only come for lunch, so after finishing their meal and talking for a while, it was time for them to leave.

“Oh, right, Aponia, take this money and buy some good food for the children. Consider it my donation to the nursing home.” Chen Luo took out a wad of cash from a side pocket in his wheelchair and handed it to Aponia.

"So much? That must be a considerable expense for you. Take it back." Aponia paused for a moment after seeing the money Chen Luo handed her, then shook her head.

"Oh, no need to be so polite, this is just one and a half months' salary for me," Chen Luo said quite generously.

"A month and a half's salary?" Aponia looked at the wad of cash in her hand, feeling slightly puzzled.

Is a teenager who looks just 18 years old really paid so much? Are the benefits in special departments really this good?

“Take these, and here’s mine too,” Hua said to Aponia.

Then he handed most of the money in his wallet to Aponia.

“Bo…Lo’s salary is really high, and I don’t have many expenses, so it’s okay to supplement the children’s nutrition.”

Hua was not surprised at all by Chen Luo's high salary.

Although Chen Luo is currently only an assistant, he plays an extremely important role in the Fire Moth, so it's normal for him to have a high salary.

“I’m not interested in money; to me, these are just some special pieces of paper,” Chen Luo said.

In fact, if Chen Luo hadn't been afraid of inflation, he could have filled the entire sanatorium with money from the previous civilization.

The unique landscape in Chen Luo's doll collection, while unable to replicate high-value items when replicating Earth, doesn't include things like gems or banknotes, which aren't considered high-value items.

Therefore, Chen Luo possesses the wealth of the entire pre-civilization and can even print money at will, since the printing press is also inside the special landscape.

However, the money Chen Luo gave to Aponia was indeed Chen Luo's salary.

Although Chen Luo has to give half of his salary to Maomao every month because it's part of their employment agreement, the money given to Maomao is actually from a special landscape.

Chen Luo kept some of his salary.

After a moment's thought, Aponia accepted Chen Luohe and Hua's donation.

"Goodbye, Qianjie." After saying goodbye to Aponia, Chen Luo also bid farewell to Qianjie.

"whispering sound."

Qianjie responded in a very friendly manner.

In fact, the fact that Qianjie didn't say "Don't bother me" was already quite friendly.

"Don't be such a spoilsport. I think we'll definitely meet again in the near future. Aponia and Thousand Calamities, take care."

We will definitely meet.

Perhaps on the operating table.

"Alright, that concludes our trip to Twilight Street for today. Let's go." Chen Luo pushed open the iron gate and was led outside by Hua.

The gang members who were originally piled up like a mountain of corpses outside the iron gate of the sanatorium have all fled without a trace.

Moreover, they no longer had the courage to block the entrance to the sanatorium.

The objective of this trip to Twilight Street has been successfully achieved. Seeing that all the children of Twilight Street have drunk the orange juice, and that the assassins have likely already poured the remaining juice into several important, fast-flowing water sources, it's time to return to the Fire Moths…

"My lord, something terrible has happened! The orange juice has been stolen!" Just as Chen Luo was about to return to the Fire Chaser, the assassin delivered a vicious blow to him.

"What did you say?" Chen Luo roared into the other person's mind through the Herrscher of Knowledge's ability.

"You can't even handle something this simple? What use are you? You can't even get someone to steal the orange juice you're supposed to pour?" Chen Luo said incredulously.

Are you really an assassin? With your pathetic skills, wouldn't you get killed by your target on the very first day?

incredible.

And didn't you become a spirit?

How could something like this get stolen?

You probably drank it yourself, didn't you?

Although the 108 Anti-Fraud Laws showed that the other party was not lying, Chen Luo still found it hard to believe.

However, only novels require logic; reality does not.

The assassin's orange juice really was stolen.

"Do you know who stole it?" Chen Luo asked, sitting in his wheelchair with a headache.

"Uh, I did see that person. I had just finished pouring orange juice into the river and had just sealed the bottle when the other person appeared so suddenly that I didn't have time to transform into a spirit along with the orange juice. Then the other person curiously picked up the remaining 1/4 of the orange juice and left."

"You saw him and you're not going to go up and give him a piece of your mind? Don't tell me there's someone on this Dusk Street you can't beat?"

While assassins are indeed incredibly weak in the Holy Grail War, it's the Holy Grail War, after all. No matter how strong an ordinary person is, they shouldn't be able to defeat an assassin, right?

A thousand tribulations doesn't count; a thousand tribulations isn't human, he's an alien.

"It's not that we can't beat them, it's that we can't fight them." The assassin shook his head.

"Why can't we fight? You're just a Heroic Spirit, who are you afraid of? You're not from this world, what does it matter to you whether he's noble or not? Even if the King of Heaven himself came and took my orange juice, you'd still have to punch him."

"But that's Padovalis. When you gave me the information, you specifically told me not to hurt her and to avoid her as much as possible," the assassin said innocently.

“…Damn it!” Chen Luo covered his forehead, feeling an even bigger headache.

Thinking about it carefully, only the adorable Paddy is lucky enough to show up at the perfect time and steal the orange juice.

Moreover, once something is in Pado's hands, it's uncertain who it will end up with.

Paddo, my nemesis!

Wait a minute, it seems that the map Chen Luo gave the assassin that marked the water source was drawn by Pado herself. According to Pado, these are some of the places she frequents.

Emmm...

I'll definitely tease Pado with the cat toy a hundred times later!

One hundred times!

"Ah, never mind, let's get the orange juice back first. Pado's luck is just incredible."

"But we need to hurry, otherwise it will be troublesome if Pado drinks the orange juice herself or feeds it to the cat."

"But even Pato wouldn't drink something of unknown origin, would she?"
