Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

Xiyue glanced casually at the bomb on the table, "So this is your bargaining chip."

"Bargain, reliance, anything is fine." Canine Teeth put the remote control into his pocket without taking it out. "However, if Miss Doctor thinks that bargaining chips sounds better, then it's bargaining chips."

"Well, it's indeed a good chip." Xiyue nodded, then reached into her clothes and threw something on the table.

Black Hat looked down at the table, only to see another bomb in front of Xiyue that looked exactly like the one they had just placed on the table.

"But the chips can only work if they can threaten me."

"..." Black Hat looked at the bomb thrown by Xiyue on the table, "How is it possible? How did you find it?"

“To be honest, it took some time.” Xiyue glanced at the bombs on the table, “But then again, Mr. Black Hat, you should have planted these bombs yourself.

"At least this way I won't be able to easily dig out the locations where the bombs are buried from your little brother."

Canine Teeth grabbed Black Hat, then stared at Xiyue: "Don't be nervous, she might just be bluffing."

"Bluffer?" Xiyue smiled, "Well, why not press your button?"

"As you wish!" Black Hat pressed the button of the remote control in his pocket hard, but there was no response.

Black Hat pressed the button a few more times, not believing it, but there was still no movement around.

"what have you done?!"

"As you can see." Xiyue stood up calmly and tidied herself casually. Bubbles wrapped in bombs appeared from under Xiyue's windbreaker.

"The room here is too small, so I'll just show you." Xiyue looked at the communicator that had been silent from the beginning, "They are smarter than you. It seems that they realized the situation was not good and ran away."

"But it doesn't matter." A ball of water appeared next to Xiyue, and the ball of water slowly rotated, forming a vortex floating in the air, "Let me see where you are?"

"Kill her!" Black Hat and Tooth Dog had no time to watch. Seeing Xiyue's performance, they decisively pulled out their weapons from under the table, kicked the table away, picked up the knives in their hands, and slashed at Xiyue.

"Don't worry." Xiyue didn't even look at them. Water appeared out of thin air and tied them to the wall. "Not everyone is here yet."

—————Slums and sewers——————

"How did that damn doctor do it?" The rat was moving through the sewer. He had already realized something was wrong when Xiyue said that the chips had to be useful to be effective.

So he pressed the button on the remote control, and he realized before anyone else that the bomb had failed, so he ran away.

He didn't know what went wrong in his plan. Logically, it should have been perfect, but why was the bomb dismantled without anyone noticing?

Maybe they shouldn't have bothered the doctor in the first place? But the mouse was no longer in the mood to think about these things.

Now the mouse had only this last thought in his mind. He wanted to run away. He knew that he had buried so many bombs and he could not escape the reckoning of anyone afterwards, whether it was from the Rat King or from Longmen.

But at this moment, the mouse felt as if someone had grabbed his feet and he could not move. The mouse looked down in horror and saw a blue vortex suddenly unfolding under his feet. A hand stretched out from it and grabbed his feet.

It seemed that the other side confirmed it and caught something. An irresistible force came from there and pulled the mouse down.

—————Slums——————

"Okay, okay, this is the last one." Xiyue swung her hand and the mouse it was holding, hitting the wall and colliding with the others.

After Xiyue released the water flow, the four people fell from the wall and were smashed into a ball.

"Okay, everyone is here. Let me think about what to do." Xiyue clapped her hands and looked at the four people in front of her with a smile. Although she had the usual smile on her face, there was no trace of smile in her eyes.

The four of them looked at the cold light in Xiyue's eyes in horror. They didn't know why, even though the other party was just a doctor, they couldn't even move.

"My four new patients, you don't understand the results of your diagnosis. How can you respect life?" Xiyue looked at the four people in front of her with a smile, and her words sounded like she was just conducting a simple diagnosis.

"I think it's because you have a black heart."

"Hmm~" Xiyue crossed her arms and tapped her shoulders with her fingers, "Let me think about it, what kind of treatment should I use for you?"

"What are you still standing there for?" Black Hat looked at Xiyue who seemed to be thinking about how to deal with them. He picked up the dagger from the ground and then glared at the other three people, "Kill this doctor!"

The three men finally reacted and took out their weapons, regardless of any moves, or attacked Xiyue from the front and back, seemingly defenseless.

"Ah, I got it. Let you experience for yourselves what it feels like to have your life deprived." Xiyue seemed to have completely ignored the three people who were pounced on her. She just stood there thinking.

The water surged like a snake, clinging to the bodies of several people. They slapped the water with their hands or knives in fear, but it was pointless. Water is invisible and cannot be destroyed.

They could only watch themselves being enveloped by the water. The mouse with quick reaction even had time to take a deep breath, but the other three were not so lucky.

In the water mass, tiny bubbles were constantly coming out of the mouths of the four people.

Xiyue smiled as she looked at the four people struggling in vain in the water: "Drowning will make you feel the passing of life. I think this kind of treatment should awaken your respect for life."

Afterwards, Xiyue tapped her fingers lightly and the water ball slowly deformed, allowing them to catch their breath for a moment, but before they could catch their breath, they were trapped in the water ball again.

Xiyue calmly looked at the four people who were struggling even more fiercely in the water: "The treatment process will be a bit long, don't worry, I will slowly treat you all."

------------

Xiyue walked out of the house into the sunshine and closed the door. As for the four people in the room, they had disappeared, as if they had never existed from the beginning.

Xiyue walked down the stairs and looked at the gangsters gathered in the open space, then looked at the Rat King beside him: "It seems that they have notified the city lord."

"This is their duty, sir." The Rat King lowered his head and spoke humbly.

"That's true." Xiyue nodded, then looked at the crowd below, "But it seems that City Lord Wei didn't choose to come here himself?"

"He followed your wishes, did not interfere, and would not have come here either."

Xiyue nodded and looked at the Rat King's hand holding the cane under his coat, and smiled helplessly: "Don't be so nervous, I'm no longer angry."

"clear."

Xiyue nodded, knowing that the Rat King would not relax his nervousness just because of his words, so Xiyue said: "I have dealt with those four idiots, but I don't care about their subordinates. I will leave them to you. Is that okay?"

"No problem, please leave it to us. We promise there won't be another one."

"I believe in your promise." Xiyue walked down the stairs, "I also believe that you won't let this happen again, right?"

"Absolutely not."

————City Lord’s Mansion————

"Are you still worried about the situation over there?" Wen Yue walked over and looked at Wei Yanwu who was standing by the window, staring into the distance.

"There's no way to stop worrying." Wei Yanwu sighed, "At least I can't let go of this worry until everything is settled."

Wei Yanwu looked at it and suddenly laughed out loud for some reason: "I don't know why, but I think this might be a good thing."

"Why?" Wen Yue looked at Wei Yanwu strangely, "No matter how you look at it, this doesn't seem like a good thing, right?"

Wei Yanwu shook his head and explained, "This incident did frighten me, but it also taught me very clearly that Lao Lin's discipline is not always effective."

"No matter what, the slums and downtown must be under the jurisdiction of Longmen, otherwise what happened today will definitely happen again."

—————Penguin Logistics Headquarters·Staff Rest Area——————

"Are you really not worried about Xiyue at all?" Angel looked at Texas and Hong, "They are a gang. Last time they beat us up, there were 80 of them."

"Yeah, yeah, not to mention there are so many bombs, and it's been a whole night." Croissant also joined in.

When they saw Xiyue disappear, they wanted to follow her to find trouble, but they were brought back by Hong and Texas.

There is no need to talk about Exia, he couldn't beat Texas in the first place, but when Croissant was carried back by Red, everyone was surprised, looking at Red riding the Croissant.

"Mom will be fine. She will come back." Hong looked at Exia and Croissant seriously.

"Okay, don't worry. If you have anything to worry about, you should worry about whether there will be any flooding in the downtown area."

Texas' face was calm, she didn't think anything would happen to Xiyue. In other words, if something happened to Xiyue, their going there would just be more trouble.

"I'm back~" Xiyue pushed open the door, looked at everyone who turned to look at her, and asked with a smile on her face, "Good morning, you must be hungry, shall I go cook?"

Chapter 69: Vacation? Hot spring?

"Hey, Xiyue, you're back!" Seeing Xiyue pushing the door open, the Angel rushed over and patted her up and down, "Are you okay?"

"Does it look like I'm in trouble?" Xiyue smiled and touched the head of the Archangel. "I'm sorry to have made you worry. I see you haven't eaten yet. What do you want to eat this morning?"

"Ouch." Xiyue lowered her head and picked up Hong who had bumped into her arms, "Hong, be good, didn't I tell you not to hit me with your head? You little brat are getting stronger and stronger."

"That's right." Croissant stroked his chin and looked at Hong who was held in Xiyue's arms. "Last night, they even forced me back."

"About this~" Xiyue touched Hong's head, looked at Croissant and said with a smile, "It's better not to know~"

"Even Xiyue herself hates the Riddler, so could you please be more clear?"

"I'm not telling you a riddle. I'm just telling you seriously. Don't ask~" Xiyue put Hong down and turned to the kitchen. "Compared to this, aren't you hungry after worrying about it all night?"

"So you knew about this too!" Angel looked at Xiyue, "You ran away without saying anything, and we were worried all night. So, to make it up to us, give us some dessert!"

"No, that's wishful thinking. You can't eat it in the morning." Xiyue immediately rejected the proposal of Angel. "But I can make some afternoon tea for you in the evening or afternoon."

"Afternoon tea is fine too!" Angel nodded decisively. As long as Xiyue agreed to make dessert, it would be fine.

Texas sighed as he looked at the Angel, whose mind was full of desserts. He then looked at Xiyue and said, "Just make something casual. It's getting late."

"Okay~"

-----------

"By the way, Xiyue, what's the situation with those idiots now?" Angel of Energy took the last bite of noodles and turned to look at Xiyue. "Although I think that now that you're back, it should be considered resolved, right?"

"Solved." Xiyue put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, then looked at Kong who was sitting next to her, "They should be here to mess with me. I'm sorry to have implicated you."

"No, no, it's okay." Kong seemed a little nervous, but Xiyue thought that it was just that Kong had not yet recovered from the attack last night.

So, Xiyue reached out and touched Kong's head, trying to give him some comfort.

"Uh huh~"

Texas looked at Xiyue who was caressing Kong with a gentle look on her face: "What did they say over there?"

Xiyue looked up at Texas: "What can they say?"

Texas looked at Xiyue and couldn't help but imagine the scene where Xiyue directly kicked open the door of City Lord Wei or the Rat King.

Well, Texas looked at Xiyue's face and couldn't imagine anything like that. It was because he didn't have the corresponding resources in his brain, so the rendering failed.

So the situation should be that City Lord Wei or the Rat King didn't dare to go there at all. No, the Rat King should still go there, at least to see Xiyue's mood at that time.

After all, the incident happened in the Lower City, and the Rat King had the duty of supervision. Otherwise, there would have been no need to find them to stage a show to establish his authority during the Requiem.

That scene was meant to tell everyone watching, don’t mess around in downtown or the slums, because the Rat King’s gang will always be watching.

Because of this, Xiyue's subsequent free clinic activities will go smoothly. No one will cause trouble? Impossible. It is a fantasy that no one will cause trouble from the beginning.

There must be a lot of people doing things behind the scenes, so why didn't Xiyue see those people, or why didn't they show up at the free clinic venue?

But in fact, it is very obvious that the Rat King's people have been maintaining order behind the scenes and ensuring the smooth development of the free medical consultation activities.

No matter what the cause of this incident was, no matter what kind of agreement was reached between the Lord of Wei, the Emperor and the Rat King.

Then, what the Rat King needs to do is to maintain the smooth progress of the free medical consultation activities, and this matter is undoubtedly a disqualification.

So no matter what, the Rat King should come and apologize to Xiyue.

Just as Texas was still thinking, the door was pushed open, and the emperor walked in with Is. Looking at Xiyue, he shouted, "Xiyue, I heard that you were in a bad mood last night. Lao Wei and the others must have been scared. Did you fall off the chair?"

Yis lowered his head and looked at the emperor. He was not sure whether City Lord Wei fell off the chair, but he knew very clearly that the emperor did fall off the chair.

The emperor felt Yis's gaze, so he looked up at Yis, and the look in his eyes seemed to say, if you dare to tell anyone, you will be dead soon.

"It's just a small matter. I've already solved it." Xiyue looked at the emperor and smiled. "I also had some friendly communication with the Rat King."

"That's good." The emperor nodded. He certainly knew what Xiyue and Lao Lin had said, otherwise why would he come back just now?

It's because he had an emergency meeting with Lao Lin and Lao Wei to discuss what to do next, so he came back just now.

The emperor looked at everyone and said, "Also, I have something to announce. The year is coming to an end and we don't have much business left, so I decided."

The emperor stretched out his voice at this moment, and everyone cooperated and focused their attention on the emperor.

"I've decided that we should go on vacation and do team building!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several people from Texas began to applaud in unison. Xiyue also smiled and applauded in support.

----------

"Take a hot spring bath?" Xiyue looked at the tablet that Is had just handed to everyone with a strange look.

The tablet shows the destination of this team-building trip, a hot spring tourist resort built in a relatively stable and safe environment.

Judging from the information provided on the tablet, this hot spring resort is very popular, except that the price is high and you have to cross the wilderness to get there.

However, no matter how high the price they ask for, it is not a problem for the emperor. The danger in the wasteland is no problem at all for Xiyue and others.

What made Xiyue look strange was that the team building was not done well and it was a bit strange to ask her to go to the hot spring.

"Any questions?" Croissant looked at Xiyue with excitement on his face. "This is a very popular hot spring resort right now."
