Their commission was suspicious.

"!!!" Danzhu was completely dumbfounded.

Did I say something wrong?

"Alright, don't be angry if you can't take them all. Here, I'll give you a gift." Chen Luo said as he placed a gift box wrapped in ribbon in front of Mebius.

"Hmm? What is this? And where did you get it from?" Cang Xuan asked.

Cang Xuan remembered that Chen Luo hadn't brought anything with him before they went for the fusion surgery.

“You forgot, I put it in the operating room,” Chen Luo said.

"Oh, really? I didn't notice."

"So what did you pay attention to?"

"Of course, it's about accessing the internal network of the Firemoth," Cang Xuan said confidently.

Only those who have undergone fusion surgery with Chen Luo truly understand how simple the role of Chen Luo's assistant is.

It could even be said that Chen Luo was the only one in the C position throughout the entire process.

"Since you're so free this morning, Cangxuan, you can skip your afternoon break and come to the lab to do experiments with me." Möbius took the tissue Chen Luo handed him, wiped his mouth, and started unpacking Chen Luo's gift box as he spoke.

"...Doctor, please don't!" Cang Xuan said with a sorrowful expression.

Why do you think I betrayed my own sister?

Isn't it all for that half-day holiday?

Are you going to take away even half a day of your vacation?

"Exactly, exactly. The assistant's workload is already quite light during the fusion surgery, so Cangxuan, you shouldn't have taken half a day off." Danzhu laughed gleefully from the side.

"Be careful, the doctor might take away your half-day vacation from now on," Cang Xuan warned slyly.

"!!!" Danzhu, who had grasped the key point, immediately covered her mouth and secretly glanced at Mebius.

But Mebius didn't seem to care about what was happening here; instead, he focused all his attention on the gift Chen Luo had given him.

"These are... gloves?" Mebius opened the packaging and saw what was inside.

Inside the gift box was a pair of black gloves made of a silk-like material.

Mebius picked up the gloves and could feel how light and comfortable they were.

Moreover, the size of the gloves fit Möbius's hand perfectly.

There is a card at the bottom of the gift box.

The card explains the origin of these gloves.

[God's Hand - Kim Möbius Special Edition]

The reason the glove was only given to Möbius now is because Chen Luo received it just an hour ago.

Loli Hassan had already found the original owner of the Imperial Arms, Godguard, and had been monitoring him, but only found a suitable opportunity an hour ago.

After knocking out the original Teigu user and stealing the gloves, the loli Hassanlo immediately delivered the gloves to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo did not intend to completely steal the gloves. After copying the gloves, he returned them to Loli Hassan and asked her to return them.

Dr. Fashion, in a sense, isn't entirely bad; it's just a bit perverse.

He did indeed transform people into dangerous species, but he used death row inmates.

It's hard to say whether this person is good or bad, but after being turned into a doll, he will eventually be useful.

Technology is the primary productive force.

The glove given to Mebius is the gold version of the original Teigu.

It is the only prop that has a commemorative value.

Generally speaking, Chen Luo would collect such props, but this time he gave them to Mebius.

The original level of God's Guardian didn't seem to be very high; the golden God's Guardian just happened to be stuck at the top level of S-rank.

Since the original God's Hand wasn't very attractive, Chen Luo used his newly acquired Blacksmithing Master skill to slightly modify the Imperial Arm.

Chen Luo modified the God's Hand into a silk glove suitable for women to wear, and guaranteed that Mebius would definitely be able to use this Imperial Arm.

As for why this glove fits Möbius's fingers perfectly?

Of course, Chen Luo measured it himself by hand.

Chen Luo had done things like shaking hands before.

However, considering that Mebius might die at any time, Chen Luo added an automatic fitting function to the glove.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Chen Luo asked.

"It's alright," Mebius said, crumpling the card into a ball after putting on the glove.

Well, at least when he was crumpling the paper, Möbius experienced the enhanced finger dexterity that the glove provided.

"That's good." Chen Luo nodded.

"By the way, what kind of return gift do you want?" Möbius asked casually.

"Hmm, why don't you cook for me this time?" Chen Luo asked tentatively.

“Not interested. Here.” Möbius glanced coldly at Chen Luo and tossed a bunch of keys to him.

"What is this?" Chen Luo asked, puzzled, after taking the key.

“My dorm room key and bedroom key,” Möbius replied calmly.

"???"

"Bo..." Upon hearing this news, Danzhu's eyes lit up, and she was about to say something.

But Cangxuan was faster than Danzhu. He grabbed the chicken leg from Danzhu's bowl and stuffed it into Danzhu's mouth, shoving it shut.

Chapter 887 I'm sorry, but Aponia gave me too much.

"See? I told you, we really are neighbors. If you ever need anything in the future, just go find Hua." Chen Luo said to Aponia as he walked ahead.

“I probably won’t be going back to the dorm often anymore; I’ve already decided to go to the Deepest Place,” Aponia said.

"Oh, aren't you going to stay in the Moths of Fire for a while longer? The Deepest Depths isn't a good place," Chen Luo asked.

“I am going to the Deepest Place voluntarily. No one is forcing me. I just feel that the Deepest Place is where a sinner like me should go,” Aponia told her the truth.

"I feel like you shouldn't think like that, but if you insist on sticking to it, then I have nothing to say to you. But if you ever want to eat something delicious, remember to come find me. I can still treat you to some food, but try to choose before noon."

"If you come looking for me after noon, I probably won't open the door."

"Oh? Ellie once told me that even outside of the confinement period, except for the fusion surgery in the morning, you still rarely appear in the Firemoth. So even though you've been in the Firemoth for so long before me, your understanding of the Firemoth might not be as deep as mine. Why is that?" Aponia was very curious about this.

"Don't listen to Alicia's nonsense. I know more about the Fire Moth than you do, okay?"

Chen Luoke couldn't stand this.

My knowledge of the Fire Moths far exceeds what others imagine; at the very least, I know about their water distribution pipelines and the daily schedules of most of their members.

This is also thanks to the doll trainees who have already drunk orange juice.

"As for what I do at home every day? You'll find out later. I've got a really big project up my sleeve," Chen Luo said mysteriously.

Chen Luo was also preparing to find a reason for himself. After all, using his love of staying at home as a reason to lock himself at home every day after the fusion surgery was not convincing at all. So Chen Luo planned to make up a legitimate reason for himself.

“I’m looking forward to it,” Aponia said.

Aponia stood quietly in place, watching Chen Luo walk to her doorstep, greet her, and then return to Chen Luo's dormitory.

Aponia, on the other hand, was approached by Hua.

“Aponia, is there any place you’re not familiar with? I can show you around; that’s a request left by the Doctor,” Hua said.

"Hua, aren't you Chen Luo's bodyguard? Don't you need to stay by Chen Luo's side at all times?" Aponia asked.

"It's not necessary to stay by the Doctor's side all the time. Just like Kevin, who is a warrior protecting Dr. Mei, doesn't stay by Dr. Mei's side all the time. Although my strength is not as good as Kevin's, the Doctor is not as valued as Dr. Mei, so I can let go after the basic tests are completed."

The Fire Moth doesn't need much protection. It just needs to make sure there's no extra person at Chen Luo's house before he goes home. If the Fire Moth can still be attacked on a large scale, then the Fire Moth might as well give up.

"And although we've tried to persuade the doctor many times, he still hasn't broken his habit of staying in his room after the fusion surgery and lunch. Meanwhile, in the dormitory, thanks to the special door material provided by Vilvi, his safety is somewhat guaranteed," Hua said.

This is why, besides protecting Chen Luo, Hua had time to engage in continuous training and practice.

“Do you know why Luo has been locking himself in his room?” Aponia asked.

“The Doctor did use the excuse that his abilities temporarily went out of control after the assassination attempt, resulting in his persistent weakness, to explain this behavior, but I always felt that the Doctor must have had another reason. Although the Doctor's weakness did indeed occur after the assassination attempt,” Hua said after thinking for a moment.

"However, this is the Doctor's prerogative. As long as the Doctor himself is not injured, there is no problem. After all, everyone has his own secrets."

"Is that so? Hmm?" Aponia suddenly frowned.

"What's wrong?" Hua asked.

“No, it’s nothing.” Aponia shook her head.

In the brief moment of conversation with Hua, Aponia seemed to sense a fluctuation in Chen Luo's silk threads.

However, upon closer inspection, it's impossible to pinpoint the problem.

The red thread originating from Chen Luo that entangled himself and most of the Fire-Chasing Moths would also disappear when Chen Luo vanished before Aponia.

Aponia was already used to this kind of thing.

Although this strange effect wasn't observed on other threads, Chen Luo's original red threads were already quite unique. Therefore, Aponia didn't delve into the matter further.

Aponia took a deep look at Chen Luo's room before following Hua out of the dormitory building.

Throughout the journey, Aponia made no attempt to hide her curiosity about Chen Luo, and all her conversations with Hua revolved around Chen Luo.

……

“Aponia, you were really curious back then,” Chen Luo said, sitting in his seat and looking at Aponia who had just come out of the doll collection.

“Oh, you mean the period right after the fusion surgery?” Aponia asked calmly.

"Yes."

"To be precise, I'm probably just very curious about you. Please understand. After all, if you see a unique, colorful figure in all the black and white images, you'll naturally be curious too."

"Is it really that special?" Chen Luo asked curiously.

Chen Luo could indeed sense Aponia's obvious intention to act when her abilities were not yet fully developed.

Chen Luo could also see that Aponia wanted to touch his destiny line, which was why Chen Luo was able to avoid Aponia's touch.

But Chen Luo genuinely had no idea what Aponia looked like when she looked at other people's threads.

Although Chen Luo's Fate Line ability was downloaded from Aponia, after being modified, Chen Luo's Fate Line ability is completely different from Aponia's.

It can only be said that the puppeteer profession is indeed amazing, having managed to turn the power of destiny into the thread of fate.

“It’s very special, not to mention that the red thread on you back then seemed to have a special attraction for me. Now that I think about it, it’s probably because our abilities come from the same source. Or rather… your ability originated from me, but it’s even more amazing.” Aponia looked at Chen Luo quietly.

By now, it's no longer a secret that Chen Luo possesses the abilities of the customers he once helped, but the bar's patrons don't seem to care.

After all, Chen Luo has the ability, so what? It's not like I'm losing out. Besides, I've received so much help, what's wrong with giving him an ability?

Some people even resented Chen Luo for not having his own abilities.

Are you there? Do you look down on my abilities?

In short, whether he likes it or not, Chen Luo's ability is a fact. Since he can't resist it, he might as well enjoy it.

However, the bar patrons who could see their own abilities reflected in Chen Luo still didn't know how or through what means Chen Luo had acquired his abilities.

"Okay, I admit that my ability does come from you, and I never intended to hide it, but what do you mean by looking at me like that?" Looking into Aponia's gentle eyes, Chen Luo sensed a trace of emotion other than gentleness in them.

Excitement, curiosity, and... eagerness to try.

"Can I... touch your red thread?" Aponia asked honestly.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

【A Touch of Fate】: Let Aponia touch the thread of her own destiny.

"...Are you sick?" the Herald of Knowledge said, protecting Chen Luo from the side.

“It’s just pure curiosity,” Aponia said.

"Although it may seem a bit unreasonable, I am genuinely curious." Aponia looked at Chen Luo with a slight apology, but the curiosity in her eyes had not disappeared.
