Of course, this feeling of wanting to cry was not only because she felt sorry for Shizhi, but also partly because Shizhi had been holding Shinren's wrist from just now. Under Shizhi's grip that had been strengthened by spiritual power, Shinren felt that if she continued like this, the fate of her arm bones would probably be no better than that of the stainless steel railing at school.
"Shiori, are you okay?"
After a burst of hurried footsteps, Tohka hurriedly pushed open the door of the room and anxiously asked about Shiori's situation.
"Oh, Tohka, you're here."
"Hmm. Manrei, how is Shiori? Is he safe?"
"Don't worry, Shiori's temperature has gone down now. I think he'll be fine after a good night's sleep. I think you should be more concerned about my hand than this. (whispering)" After comforting Tohka with a smile, Manren looked at her arm that had been squeezed purple by Shiori with tears in her eyes, and prayed in her heart that she would never have to deal with an orthopedic doctor in the future.
Soon after, all the elves except Miku gathered in Shiori's ward. The yuri idol is still shooting a commercial in Kansai, but considering that she once rated Shiori as "the girl I want to taste the most" and her financial strength, as long as there are no planes in the sky, it is probably only a matter of time before Miku arrives here.
"Shiori-chan ahhhhhhhh!"
As expected by Manrei, the yuri idol Miku opened the door and rushed in. Seeing that she hadn't taken off her clothes and was wearing a special outfit for filming, she must have flown back from the middle of filming the commercial. However, Manrei realized that Miku's target seemed to be not Shiori on the bed but herself next to the bed.
"Guard VentoKotori Version!"
Since Nanashi seemed to have sensed something and had distanced herself from him in advance, Shinren could only use Kotori, who was closest to her, as a scapegoat and throw her at Miku who was rushing towards her.
"I hate you, you stinky locust--!"
In response to Marie's behavior, Kotori could only curse Marie for throwing her out while falling into Miku's clutches.
"Wait, Miku...I'm not your sister!"
However, Miku seemed to be selectively deaf as she rubbed against Kotori affectionately.
"Ahhh, Shiori-chan's body is still so soft and fragrant, even though she has become so petite, just like Kotori-chan. But it doesn't matter, hiss, hiss, hiss..."
"I am Kotori herself, calm down!"
After Kotori yelled, Miku calmed down a little: "Hey, Miss Kotori, what are you doing here? You ran into my arms without knowing it. It seems that Miss Kotori is also a child who likes to act like a spoiled child."
"It's obvious that Zhen Lian that damn locust used me as a shield! And where are your hands touching!?"
Miku murmured "Really?" and then reluctantly let go of Kotori. Then Shinrei cunningly hid on the other side of Shiori's bed, and Nanashi seemed to have escaped a disaster and muttered to himself: "It's a good thing I didn't sit next to Shinrei, otherwise I would have become a shield..."
After finally breaking free from Miku's clutches, Kotori said as she straightened her clothes, "I really can't stand you, Miku... Now let's all go to the conference room and have a meeting. Reine and I will be responsible for explaining my sister's current situation."
Considering that Shiori needs to rest now, and also to prevent Shiori from getting too worried and blaming himself after learning that he is like a time bomb, Kotori plans to go to the nearest meeting room to discuss countermeasures.
Just when all the spirits stood up, they found that Zhenlian was still sitting in the same seat and had no intention of leaving. Zhenlian raised her hand that was held by Shizhi a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Shizhi doesn't seem to want me to leave. You guys discuss countermeasures, after all, I am not the source of Shizhi's spiritual power. It's OK for a security captain like me to be in charge of security work."
"Are you still being so polite? Everyone treats you as a family member now." Facing Manri's self-mockery, Kotori sighed, "I'll tell you about my sister's situation later."
Although everyone expressed their desire to take care of Shiori together, this would only lead to a weird scene where Shiori's bed would be used instead of a round table for a "round table meeting". The only way to calm everyone down was to propose that everyone take turns to take care of Shiori after discussing countermeasures.
After everyone left the ward, only Shinrei and Shiori were left in the huge room. Shinrei poked Shiori's pink cheeks like teasing a baby: "You are really defenseless right now. If it were another man sitting here, it would probably turn into a book of "Sickroom Stories". I am such a gentleman."
“Guchu…”
Shiori made a soft and cute sound like a little animal, and the force he used to hold Shinren was not as strong as before, so Shinren felt a little embarrassed to take revenge on Shiori for almost breaking her arm.
"Get up and get a glass of water."
"Zhenlian-kun... don't leave me..."
Just when Shinren wanted to stand up, Shiori's grip on Shinren increased a little bit. Just from the feeling coming from his hand, one could feel Shiori's strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, and there seemed to be a faint tear mark next to Shiori's closed eyes.
Hearing this, Shinren couldn't help but feel heartbroken - she had been seriously injured many times before, the "death" during the origami period, and her body was occupied by death. Shiori might not have said anything about it, but she must have really thought countless times that Shinren was going to leave her forever.
"Don't worry, Shiori, I'm here. I'm always here." Manren showed a doting and helpless smile, and helped Shiori tidy up his messy hair.
[I have become a lot more nagging... If it were my old self, I would probably think that I am so corny now. ]
Looking at Shiori's tears, Zhen Lian secretly made up her mind: "I will become stronger, so strong that no one can kill me, so strong that no one can hurt you and Tohka. In this way, you don't have to worry about anyone leaving you anymore."
Chapter 7: Shiori's Rampage (Part )
"Shiori's fever isn't just an ordinary one, right?"
In the conference room, Origami was the first to ask Kotori the question that all the elves wanted to ask. Seeing the treatment that Shiori received today, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Shiori definitely didn't have a severe cold.
"Yes. This is what I want to explain to you next." Kotori nodded, "Reine, thank you for your help."
"Okay." Lingyin nodded, and after operating the computer for a while, the large screen in the conference room projected a full-body picture of Shizhi and a bunch of densely packed data and charts that were a bit overwhelming.
"These are the various data of Xiaozhi's body. Because Fraxinus was sent to Ratatosk for repair and time was tight, it was not produced in the most easy-to-understand way. Please bear with it. This is the operating record data of Xiaozhi's body functions, and this includes emotional fluctuations including stress value and favorability. And next to it is the spiritual wave analysis chart."
If there is enough time, I guess the staff of Ratatosk will make a set of small animations of "Shiori's Situation Analysis Even Tohka can Understand" to explain it to everyone. Except for Origami who has learned relevant knowledge in AST, everyone else is half-comprehending. At the beginning, Tohka tried hard to understand the content of the image and Reine's explanation for Shiori, but in the end, her brain CPU was overloaded and she fell on the table.
Seeing this, Kotori could only slide the tablet in her hand and explain the situation as best as possible.
Although Shizhi sealed the elves, there is an invisible spiritual power channel between the elves and Shizhi for spiritual power exchange, and spiritual power is like water in a pipe. Therefore, when the elves are uneasy, they will cause a certain degree of spiritual power backflow, and even release restrictive spiritual equipment.
But this time, for some reason, the spiritual energy channel between Shizhi and the elves became narrower. The excessive spiritual energy was like a road during the Golden Week, blocking Shizhi's body. The accumulation of a large amount of spiritual energy would cause Shizhi's body to show signs of overload and overheating. The superhuman abilities that Shizhi had shown before were the result of excess spiritual energy with nowhere to vent.
"Wait a minute? That means Shiori is now like a can in a microwave, which is very dangerous?" Tohka, who had once been taught a lesson by Shinren for causing a small explosion with a can and a microwave, immediately turned pale.
"That's undeniable, but there's still time. If we continue to let it go, my sister, who has the spiritual power of eight people, will indeed go berserk. That scene will absolutely be hell on earth." Kotori replied while holding a lollipop in her mouth.
"Then, how can we save Shiori?"
"This is why I called everyone here. Now that the problem has been discovered, as long as everyone and sister rebuild the spiritual power circuit and restore the normal circulation, sister will be fine."
"Is that so?" Tohka nodded, not quite understanding.
"So what are the specific steps?" Mijiu asked with a finger on her chin, looking a little confused.
"It's a kiss."
"Kiss?" Faced with this answer, everyone tilted their heads in confusion - not because they didn't understand the meaning of this word because they slept in English class, but because the way to resolve this crisis was just a small kiss. The huge sense of disparity made everyone a little stunned.
Facing everyone's doubts, Ling Yin nodded affirmatively: "Xiao Zhi established a spiritual power channel with you through kissing, and the method of natural expansion is the same. You only need to kiss Xiao Zhi once to solve the problem."
"So Shiori has kissed everyone before. I finally understand why Shinrei keeps calling Shiori the Manjou!"
After a strange sigh, Tohka clenched her fists as if she had made up her mind: "Everyone must save Shiori!"
"Yeah!"
--split line--
Nilelu Island is an uninhabited island purchased by DEM 20 years ago. It is not even registered on the map and is secretly operated as an underground experimental base. There are about 50 researchers, 30 miscellaneous staff, and several magicians responsible for guarding the island. If the experimental samples are included, the number of people on this island may double.
That’s right, what are being conducted here are inhumane human experiments. If these heinous acts were to be made public, even a company as big as DEM would not be able to escape unscathed from the storm of worldwide condemnation.
It was such a mysterious island, but today, more than a hundred magicians gathered here. The combat uniforms and display devices they wore were enough to show that they were definitely not here to have a party on a whim.
"It's quite a big fuss. One hundred elite magicians and more than three hundred Bandersnatch (mythical beasts)." Someone in the shadows stared with interest at the armaments on the island that seemed powerful enough to fight against Zangogu, and smiled evilly.
"It seems that those guys from DEM value the second elf lady very much. As for this part, 'I' will go check the sea route. I don't want to kidnap a shadow warrior after all the trouble."
"This is necessary, 'I'. For 'our' wish. The power of the Second Elf Lady is absolutely indispensable."
On the runway of the transport plane carrying "Material A", the pilot suddenly spotted a figure. At first he thought it was a staff member or a magician who came to support. But under the blessing of the spotlight, he saw the person clearly - a girl wearing a black and red Gothic dress, with black hair tied into two ponytails, one long and one short, and her left eye like a golden dial.
"Wait! It's Nightmare! The Pokémon with an overall danger level of S-rank!"
After one of them recognized Kuang San, the words he shouted heartbreakingly were like the clarion call of war. A huge melee broke out on the entire Nililu Island, and in an instant the island turned into a tense battlefield.
In the face of the absolute strength and large numbers of elves, these equipments were as fragile as paper. After defeating these guards, Kuang San hijacked the second elf that was to be transported away.
It should have unfolded like this.
"Ahhhh, it's a new face."
Kurumi wiped the blood from her forehead while looking at the strange magician in front of her. She looked only about twenty years old, wearing a special display device and combat uniform, with golden hair. Her mature figure did not match her somewhat childish baby face. Compared to the murderous Allen, this woman exuded a peaceful temperament.
If she didn't have the head of Kuang San's clone in her hand, Kuang San would be very happy to get to know her.
"Hehehe... In order to kidnap people this time, I had a feast in different cities before coming here!" Kuang San laughed wildly and crawled out from the shadows again. The Kuang San Army that had been wiped out before once again stood in front of the female magician.
"This is really troublesome." The other party frowned, defending against Kurumi's attack while holding down the headset with his finger to talk to the other party, "Adeptus2, please. Transporter coordinates, X axis 191.9, Y axis 180. Don't damage 'Material A'."
After saying that, Artemisia gave up on the attack and chose to retreat towards the transport plane.
"Understood, Adeptus 3."
Mie, who was far away at sea, responded coldly and took out a purple-gold key - engraved with a scorpion with two tails and the English word "Serqet Scorpion".
"Toxic!"
After inserting the Seleket Scorpion Key into the briefcase slashing bow, Mie aimed it at the sky, pulled the lever, and then let go.
"Serqet Kaban Shoot!"
"What?" Feeling something strange, Kuang San and the others raised their heads and saw purple meteors streaking across the sky. But after looking carefully, Kuang San was shocked - that was not a meteor shower, but a rain of arrows!
Countless scorpion-shaped energy arrows attacked the entire Nilelu Island like a meteor shower. In just a moment, the entire Nilelu Island was like being baptized by missiles, turning into a scorched earth and a sea of fire. The only thing that remained unscathed was the transport plane protected by the random field amplified by Artemisia through the amplifier.
“Ahem… What? Is this really a bow and arrow? It’s definitely far superior to a magic missile!”
The only surviving clone of Kuang San crawled out from under the countless charred corpses. Her limbs were severely injured, and she had already consumed a lot of physical strength just to crawl out. The severe blood loss made it impossible for her to relieve the feeling of lack of oxygen no matter how she breathed.
"Aroudinght." Artemisia, holding a laser knife, calmly walked towards the fallen Kuang San, and chopped off the head of Kuang San's clone with a sharp move.
"Report, the target Nightmare has been eliminated, and the plan to escort 'Material A' continues."
Chapter 8 Shiori's Rampage (Part )
"You've been through so many hardships since you chose the path of saving elves." Manren turned his back to Shiori and spoke to Shiori who was lying on the hospital bed while wringing out the towel in the basin filled with ice water, although Manren was not sure whether Shiori was listening.
"But I still think that my meeting you is indeed my most fortunate thing. I am still imagining, if I hadn't rushed out to pull you back when the space earthquake occurred on April 10th, would I still be that muddleheaded little bastard? So, it's great to meet you, Shizhi."
Before meeting Shiori, even though Shinrei had a place to live, a school, and a part-time job, she lived a comfortable life, but Shinrei felt that it was impossible for her to establish a deep connection with other people.
Friends are only superficial and are not gentle to others. Zhenlian even feels that she may still be trapped in that rainy night in the alley of Tiangong City.
In these days, even if she is covered in bruises from fighting, even if she is sleep deprived in order to make the 01 system more powerful, Zhenlian still feels that she is living a happy, blessed, and meaningful life.
But when Shinren turned around to apply a new ice towel to Shiori, she found that the bed Shiori had just been lying on was empty. Shiori, who was supposed to be lying on the bed, groaned in discomfort, put on his slippers, and then staggered towards the exit like a small zombie in "Resident Evil".
"Don't move around. If you don't listen to the doctor, you won't get any lollipops."
However, Shiori did not respond and just staggered towards the exit. Shinren, who noticed something was wrong, stopped Shiori.
"Shiori?"
However, Shiori seemed to regard Zhenlian as a pillar and completely ignored her. He just walked around her and walked out of the ward.
According to Zhenlian's previous style, she would probably knock Shiori unconscious with her hand knife without any mercy, and then take her back to the ward. However, Zhenlian didn't know what Shiori's current situation was. Not to mention using physical hypnosis on Shiori rashly, Zhenlian didn't even dare to wake Shiori up now, for fear of leaving her with any sequelae.
All we can do now is keep an eye on her.
Thinking this, Manren followed Shiori silently.

"Wow, today I specially exchanged duty with Bamboo Princess in order to buy the limited edition Quata doll!"
A girl wearing the uniform of Raizen High School, with long brown hair, and looking very much like the heroine of "A Certain Scientific Railgun" was standing in a line outside a doll store, looking anxiously into the store - what if this limited edition doll was sold out, and it would take who knows when the reprint would be available, and by then the only option left would be to buy it from scalpers at a high price.
Suddenly the girl noticed a familiar figure walking towards her across the street.
[I remember she was... Gokawa Shiori, right? So fast! ]
The girl quickly recognized the person and was about to say hello to her when she was surprised to find something wrong - Shiori's walking movements looked like a sickly patient, but her speed was totally unlike that of an ordinary person. Just by looking at her, one could tell that she was at least at the level of an athlete.
"Hey, Gokawa! Are you okay?"
[My head hurts... I wonder what I was doing...]
Shizhi felt that his left brain had turned into flour and his right brain had turned into water. As he walked around, his left and right brains completely mixed together and turned into a paste.
The world in his field of vision has become completely blurred. If Shizhi's eyesight was 1080P before, now it is at most 240P, which is almost equivalent to a blind person. He can clearly feel the heat in his body that is almost melting his internal organs and brain, but Shizhi still feels the bone-chilling cold that makes him shiver constantly.
Her hazy consciousness now only remembered that she seemed to be lying in a strange room filled with the unpleasant smell of disinfectant when she woke up; she could hear people talking beside the bed, but unfortunately her brain was no longer able to think and process the content of their words, so in Shizhi's ears their words were no different from the dripping sound of the instrument; her body and arms were still covered with electrodes and IV drips.
Shiori only remembered that he felt very uncomfortable, then he pulled out the electrodes and the IV, and walked out as if following instinct.
"Hey! Hey! Gokawa? Gokawa! Are you okay?"
[Someone... is calling me? ]
Shiori raised her heavy head, and after a long time her eyes focused on the person in front of her. The other person was a girl with long, smooth brown hair. Shiori remembered her. She was a classmate of Yakuya and Yui, and also a girl called "Prince" by many girls.
[Girl? I’m Itsuka Shiori… a girl… Oh, I think I’m going to do a capture.]
As if subconsciously, Shiori's body moved again according to instinct.
"Ryougi-san, I find you very cute."
