About the time I was picked up and adopted by Tallulah

Of course, after hearing the three words "Miss Lin", Shuangxing's ears immediately perked up. It seems that he needs to have a good chat with Orson after returning home today to find out how many girls he has offended during his time in Longmen, the kind that they can chat with all night long after locking the door.

As for Ah, who heard Orson's usual outrageous answer, he blinked this time. He tried to judge whether the other party was lying from Orson's breathing rate, pulse and tone.

The conclusion is that either this guy is a top-notch con man who can perfectly control every factor of his body to construct lies, or... this guy really has the ability to produce Originium inhibitors supported by Dr. Blood's theory in Casimir, and has deep connections with the top brass of the Guard Bureau and even the daughter of the "Rat King" in the slums.

"Your girlfriend is pregnant now. Is it because of your immoral private life?"

"Wow! Is this true? Is this true?!"

“Really?!”

This abrupt and inexplicable sentence almost made Orson, who was chatting normally just now, feel his heart jump out. Snow Rabbit beside him also opened his eyes wide instantly, with an expression of surprise, confusion, and a little happiness on his face.

"Fake~ I just wanted to see if you could fake your emotions, puff..."

Ah told the two of them this incoherent sentence just to test how cunning Orson was. No matter how cunning a person is, if he has such drastic mood swings, there will definitely be subtle delays in his mood changes as long as he is pretending.

Of course, before she could finish her words, Frost Star grabbed her neck with one hand and lifted her up against the corner of the wall. Orson, who was standing by, was so scared that he quickly came over to persuade Sister Xuetu to let it go, as it was a life at stake.

"Ahem, it's clear you two are indeed a couple, and your relationship is quite distant—in short, if everything you say is true..."

After finally escaping from the snow rabbit grip strength meter, Ah stuck out his tongue and rubbed his neck, while opening his mouth to Orson thoughtfully.

"Then...it's not impossible for me to join in the fun."

The words were on the tip of his tongue, but Ah paused, and finally chose to agree with Orson with a slightly playful and disdainful attitude.

"Have you finally decided to help us change the slums, Doctor?"

After seeing Ah Xuan offering to help, Orson immediately went over happily and held the other's furry, paw-filled hand.

"I never said that. I just thought it was funny, and if the slums were really going to change, I could squeeze money out of the richer guys in the city."

Ah said with a smirk as he walked to the office and took out a file from the filing cabinet.

"I keep a separate file for every Sicilian Gang member who comes to see me. It contains their information and positions. One of your goals here is to eliminate this gang, right? This thing can be of some help. I was originally planning to use this to intimidate each of them into paying for their medical expenses. Remember to reimburse me for the difference."

"How do you estimate the value of something like this... Anyway, thank you for the information, it's really helpful!"

Orson took over the file and made great progress in finding clues about the Sicilian Gang.

"Also, if you can really get a large quantity of potion that can suppress Originium infection, I can handle the distribution and injection of the potion. I can make at least 8% of people willingly pay for the injection, haha."

For a so-called black doctor, medical skills are one aspect, but his own personal connections are also very important. If he is the only doctor in the slums, he can indeed make most people accept the treatment drugs of unknown origin immediately.

Ore disease is the source of all divisions, and the addition of Black Doctor A has provided great help in solving this "source".

"Thank you so much, Ah! Not only did you provide us with information about the Sicilian Gang, but you were also able to help us solve the problem of medicine distribution. Even if you hate this, I still want to say that you are a great doctor, and a somewhat awkward, but definitely kind person."

"That does sound disgusting."

Faced with Orson's heartfelt praise, Ah waved his hand in disdain on the surface, but his tail was already shaking.

After getting A's help, Orson and Frost Star decided to return to Longmen City through the abandoned passage that Miss Black Snake had previously pointed out, and discuss with Chen, Tallulah and others about Rhodes Island's aid and changing the image of the Guards.

------

After seeing the two off, Ah was doing routine rounds on the patients while recalling what Orson had said to him before.

Doctors are not useless people chasing fame and fortune, but brave people who dare to take other people's lives on their own shoulders and will not retreat even in the face of death?

What a... huh, what boring words.

Ah shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he began to rehearse in his mind the next time he met Orson, and how he would secretly tie up this guy with a super strange physique and take him away to use for experiments.

"So, the melon-flavored enhancer is probably better, right? But the side effects—wait, 'side effects'?"

Ah suddenly thought of something. He walked to the operating room and found the small empty bottle of "inhibitor" that he had poured into Orson's mouth before, and saw the label on it.

[Prototype Ore Disease Inhibitor β Version - Strong Effect, Side Effect - Short-Term Attraction to the Opposite Sex]

"..."

“Huff, huff, huff~??”

After a brief silence, Ah Du started humming a little song from his hometown.

——This has nothing to do with me. Orson was the one who pretended to be sick. I just wanted to save him out of humanitarianism.

What's more, this effect, which can't even be called a 'side effect', is something many men want but can't buy with money! I'm not cheating Orsen, but giving him a reward for his compliment... That's right, a reward!

After all, he was a doctor, and it didn't take long for him to fool himself into believing it through hypnosis.

"Anyway, let me first look for that [48-Hour Emergency O-Avoiding Pill] I accidentally made earlier..."

93. Sir Chen who ate something strange

The mobile city's power zone beneath the slums was filled with deadly Originium dust, with landslides, ruins, and dead ends everywhere. Although residents had attempted to explore this area, countless had returned empty-handed, suffering premature deaths from the high concentrations of Originium dust. Consequently, these underground passages, cluttered with abandoned machinery, became a forbidden zone for the slum dwellers.

However, even in such a restricted area, there were two outsiders walking in it.

"Although this filter mask is specially made, it's still best to check whether it's airtight, Froststar."

"Ok, I know."

After observing the slums for a while and obtaining the list and medicine distribution channels from Black Doctor A, Orson and Frost Star were strolling in the maze-like death restricted area in order to redefine the next stage of the plan with others.

Both of them wore masks equipped with filter elements. Although these masks could not block poison gas, they could absorb and block Originium powder and dust.

"I didn't expect there would be such an area underground in the Longmen slums..."

Along the way, Frost Star saw countless mechanical forests made of interwoven steel. Even though these underground mazes made of steel were covered in rust and debris due to years of disrepair, she could still feel the former grandeur and complexity of this area.

"These underground passages were originally built to provide a mobile city-state power source for the slums. In fact, these areas are already 70% complete. However, this underground power generation area was ultimately never actually put into use."

Orson had heard a lot of unknown secrets about Longmen from Black Snake and Wei Yanwu, and the cause and effect of the abandonment of this abandoned underground engine area was one of them.

"The slums weren't originally isolated by Lungmen. They should have been areas 22-28. This underground power pipeline was designed to provide mobility for the slums. However, during a natural disaster that even the Scourge Messengers failed to warn of, these areas weren't evacuated in time, leading to a large number of infections. Lungmen didn't attempt to guide or help these victims, but instead, almost brutally, isolated the severely infected areas."

Orson slowly told Frost Star the story. He never thought that he could actually get knowledge from Miss Black Snake that he could tell others.

"In other words, it was Longmen who first abandoned these people in the slums?"

Frost Star asked curiously, while staring at Orson.

"You could say that, but this incident can only be considered one of the causes. After all... almost all of the infected people who experienced what happened back then have died from the Originium infection."

Orson said softly, and at the same time saw an unknown human skeleton in the corner.

"Anyway, due to the natural disaster, the underground power tunnel in the slums was never completed. After decades of abandonment, it has become what it is today. Now, the only people who know that there is a road leading to Longmen City in this Originium Ruins Labyrinth are probably Miss Black Snake and Commander Wei, the Rat King. Just like in Chernobog, this dusty passage has been forgotten by most people."

Orson murmured about the gradually disappearing history. At the same time, the two came to an area that was slightly different from the previous iron maze.

"This is……?"

In front of the two was a giant elliptical line made up of dozens of thick steel cables, with both ends of the line tightly pulling the underground areas of the slums and Longmen city.

"This is the [connection interface] Miss Black Snake mentioned. Because the underground power zone in the slums was never built, to prevent a break between Longmen City and the slums, this extremely crude and simple method was used to connect them."

Orson reached out and gently touched the incredibly thick steel cable in front of him.

"The paths we've taken along the way, when we established those areas, we must have considered a lot, right? But now that Longmen has become like this, we must change... Uh, Frost Star?"

Orson sighed from the bottom of his heart, but halfway through he suddenly noticed that Frost Star beside him seemed to have not heard his sigh at all. This snow rabbit had been staring at him intently from the beginning.

"Hmm? Uh... well, you're right."

Frost Star, who was called by name by Orson, stood there in a daze for a while before reacting and responding, and her voice sounded a little panicked.

"Are you okay, Froststar? Is it the deposited Originium dust that seeped into the protective mask?"

Orson asked Frost Star with some concern if she was feeling unwell. However, when Orson got closer, Frost Star's face turned red and she raised her hand in panic.

"No, I'm fine... Well, don't worry about me, just keep going. You just said this is a link node, which means we're almost at the Dragon Gate, right?"

Frost Star shook her head and asked Orson, saying that she was also listening to the class carefully. Only then did the latter feel relieved.

Orson led the way again, but after tricking Orson over, Frost Star behind Orson immediately covered both sides of the respirator with his hands, and shook his head like a rattle.

Why does Orson seem so handsome today? He's usually handsome, but rather than looking that cool and wanting to give him a good rub, what's going on with this feeling today? Could it be that I'm just being really unsatisfied?

Xuetu kept asking questions in her mind, and at the same time she kept looking at Orson's back.

Originally, Xuetu thought that after locking the door and talking with Orson all night last night, he had already replenished a considerable amount of "Chimera Elements". However, at this moment, his unusual attention to Orson forced Xuetu to once again think about his level of O chaos.

——In that case, why not just… No, no, no! Orson is clearly working hard for the infected people in the slums right now, how could I possibly be thinking about this kind of thing! Wouldn’t that really turn me into a bunny who only knows OOO!

Frost Star carefully took out the small blue pill that she had taken from the clinic from her pocket, but she immediately put it back into her pocket and rubbed out some ice cubes to apply on her forehead in an attempt to calm herself down.

"We're almost in Longmen City. Although we have some serious business to attend to, we should be able to squeeze in some free time. Longmen is even more prosperous than the Great Knight Territory of Casimir. Let's go shopping there later. Frost Star, is there anything you want?"

They were about to reach their destination, and Orson asked Frost Star while confirming the location of the exit.

"I want a kiss..."

"Eh?!"

"Kiss—no, no no, that, it's nothing!"

Frost Star, who just realized what he had just said instinctively, quickly shook his head.

What on earth is going on…?

Frost Star gradually began to doubt whether he was really a crazy rabbit, while Orson, as always, was confused about the situation and thought that the snow rabbit was not acclimatized.

As for the culprit of all this——

"I created a 'trap for Orson' based on the information I got from the information dealer, but why do I feel like I've been tricked...?"

Black Doctor A frowned and knitted his chin as he stared intently at the 'Yan Country Crosstalk Selection CD' placed in the middle of a cage in front of him. It was a trap so simple that it felt like an insult to his intelligence.

------

"We're here. This is Longmen City. The exit is the 16th District Metal Smelting Factory, which is a relatively remote area in Longmen."

The two arrived at Longmen again through a secret passage hidden in the underground power area. They were surrounded by industrial-style buildings that were constantly spewing smoke.

"Uh-huh……"

Frost Star took off the respirator, but the disturbing "strangeness" in her body still did not subside. She made eye contact with Orson, and an urge to give birth to a little chimera with this silly boy emanated from the bottom of her heart.

"Anyway, let's go meet Tallulah and the others first—"

"Hey, those two guys over there!"

Orson was about to go look for Tallulah, Chen Huijie and the others. However, because they were in the tunnel before, Orson had not yet activated his frequency perception, so he naturally did not notice that two police officers from the Guard Bureau were coming over.

"...They are from the Imperial Guard, right?"

The development of the situation was somewhat unexpected, and Frost Star had to desperately shake off those R18 thoughts and start thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of her.

Although Orsen is still easy to deal with, Frost Star is an out-and-out illegal immigrant and infected person. If such an identity were in the ordinary Longmen, they would just turn a blind eye and at most throw him into the police station to keep Orsen company.

But now the Guard Bureau has just experienced a terrorist attack. If Frost Star's situation is discovered, it will definitely not be easily covered up.

"Leave it to me, Froststar."

Orson patted Frost Star's shoulder gently, and with a calm and natural expression, he took the initiative to protect Frost Star.

Although Orson usually acts like a mascot like Junjun, whenever he is really needed to stand up, he will always make everyone feel at ease.

"Why are you two here?"

The leading officer from the Royal Guard asked Orson directly in a bad mood, while the officer wearing a hat and sunglasses behind him wanted to say something, but he didn't find a good opportunity at the first time.

"Officer, my girlfriend and I are looking for a good place to watch the stars. There are relatively few tall buildings around this industrial area, so I think waiting until late at night when the factories are closed might be a good option. This is my ID."

Orson talked nonsense with a calm expression, and at the same time, he took out a fake ID from his pocket and handed it to the other party very naturally.

"Breedkeeper? What kind of weird job is that... Also, uh, your girlfriend seems to be, in makeup?"

The police officer complained after seeing the identity that Orson handed over, then pointed at Frost Star behind Orson in panic.

"Woooaa, are you okay, Froststar!?"

"Girlfriend——Hehe"

Snow Rabbit gave a silly smile, and at the same time, with the addition of his already somewhat inexplicable state, he was so happy that he melted.

"Look at the stars, haha. Romantic people like you are rare these days. But the nights in Longmen have been a bit rough lately. You'd better stay home with your girlfriend."

The police officer patted Orson on the shoulder with an expression that said, "Young man, you have a bright future." Little did he know that the reason of 'watching the stars together' was also something Orson learned from Miss Black Snake, and it was originally meant for Orson to flirt with Tallulah.

"I understand, sir. My girlfriend and I will leave first..."

"Wait a minute—"
