As Everyone Knows, Dr. Mei Never Keeps Her Promises! (Bonus Chapter) / He's So Handsome, He Must Be Gay!

However, these words only made Kevin laugh even harder, and he extended his right hand to Thunder with a very amused expression.

"What?" Thunder asked, puzzled.

"My dearest sister Eclair, have you forgotten what I do? I work for a security company!"

"Now that the goods you requested have been delivered, shouldn't you settle your payment for the task? Add to that the 50,000 yuan you owe me last time, you should at least squeeze some out of me."

"I've been spending money recklessly lately, and I'm almost broke."

Kevin chuckled and teased, feeling a sense of relaxation and a desire to playfully tease this serious woman. After all, laughter and banter are the way family and friends interact.

"Bang!"

The boy felt a sudden weight in his hand; he saw the Gunblade in his palm and was both amused and exasperated.

"What would I need this for? I could easily replicate hundreds or even thousands of them just by Conceptual Replication..."

Kevin casually tossed the Gunblade back into Thunder's arms, just about to say a few polite words to protect the woman's strong sense of pride.

Unexpectedly, Lei Ting gritted his teeth, expressionlessly unbuttoned his jacket, revealing the slightly undulating peaks beneath the cloth.

Kevin stared in disbelief, his Adam's apple bobbing unconsciously as his gaze settled on Lei Ting's smooth, alabaster skin.

Wait... you mean... this is too exciting...?

Don't do that, I'm not a casual person!

Chapter 529, Section 557: As everyone knows, Dr. Mei broke his promise! (Bonus Chapter)

"Bang!"

The object, still warm from the body and faintly scented, was tossed into Kevin's arms.

"Take it. This is the only thing I have besides my weapon that I can use to pay off my debt."

Kevin stared in astonishment at the Nordic-style silver-white armor, then at the aloof and sophisticated Mature Woman had just pulled a vest from the closet and put it on, a strange sense of loss welling up inside him.

"If you don't like it, you can pry off the gems and sell them; you could probably get a lot of money from it..."

Lei Ting explained in a deep voice, his expression completely calm.

No wonder you're so poor. I've been asking you to manage my finances, and it's only made me lose more money. Kevin snapped out of his daydreams, glanced at the size and quality of the gems, and tossed them back to their owner with a grumbling.

"I prefer cash, so I'll pay you back in advance, a friendly price, I'll give you 50,000 yuan in total..."

The Thunder remained indifferent to Kevin's overtures, merely nodding in response and refusing to say another word.

"Of course, I have a motto: either don't do something at all, or do it to the best of your ability. So I brought back the other person you wanted to see as well."

Kevin secretly cast a spatial barrier to isolate movement, then smiled and opened the large suitcase. Inside was a lifelike sculpture of a single-ponytailed humanoid girl made of purplish-red crystal.

"Sera!"

Lei Ting, who had always been calm and collected, suddenly lunged at the crystal sculpture. After exclaiming in surprise, he turned back to gaze at it with an indescribable chill in his expression.

"You bastard! Do you know what you're doing?! Once you leave the Schrodinger Company's Mako life support pod, Sera's consciousness will be completely eroded and obliterated by the Crystallization Sickness!"

Thunder rushed forward, grabbed Kevin by the collar, and roared angrily.

"Don't rush, I just wanted to give you a surprise, look behind you..."

Kevin, realizing he had inadvertently touched a nerve with the woman, smiled broadly, raised his hands, and with a snap of his fingers, the three wings behind the boy slowly flapped, releasing a strange energy ripple.

"Click..."

A crisp sound, like shattering glass, rang out, and Lei Ting instinctively turned his head to look back.

At this moment, a tiny crack appeared on the chest of the crystal sculpture, then spread out like a spider web, and in an instant, it crumbled and fell apart piece by piece.

"Sera ..."

Seeing this, Lei Ting hurriedly threw the boy aside and picked up his sister, who had been freed from crystallization. The familiar human warmth and the soft touch of her skin almost made the older sister, who had waited for nearly ten years, burst into tears of joy.

Her hands, feet, cheeks, facial features, chest, abdomen, and even her hair were all intact! Lei Ting examined his unconscious sister, carefully checking every part of her body.

But then, looking down, she was shocked to find that her younger sister, whose clothes had shattered into dust as they crystallized, was completely naked and exposed to the air.

"Cough cough, an accident... an accident... I didn't see anything..."

Kevin sensed the murderous intent approaching, immediately averted his gaze, focused on his nose and mind, and coughed dryly to explain.

"Go back!"

Somewhat annoyed, Raiden grabbed the boy, opened Raiden Mei's bedroom door, threw him onto the bed, and bumped right into Raiden Mei, who had just hung up the phone.

"What did you do to upset Sister Eclair again? I remember she's always very calm."

Raiden Mei helped Kevin up and asked him with a smile.

"I only have one child, what can I do? She's different, not to mention her period every month, she's almost menopausal at this age."

Kevin looked around, turned his back on Thunder, and retaliated by throwing mud at them.

"Oh, it seems you're always right..."

Raiden Mei praised him with a half-smile, and before Kevin could even gloat, his senior pressed his shoulder firmly down.

"So, little Kevin, can you explain why my dad said he's entrusting me to you from now on? How did you relay the false relationship for the sake of convenience?"

"Of course I'll tell the truth. My uncle definitely hopes that after going through hardships together, we can get along well and support each other!"

Kevin chuckled awkwardly, a little uneasy inside. Could Raiden Ryoma really be taking this seriously?

The boy's eyelids twitched. Combining this with the reaction of Raiden Ryoma in prison, he realized that the guy actually thought he had been having an affair with his daughter.

Fortunately, Kevin's deception skills were superb, and his words were flawless. Even though Raiden Mei was full of suspicion, she couldn't find any fault with him.

Immediately, the little boy lowered his eyelids, looking somewhat sleepy, taking the opportunity to avoid this fatally sensitive topic.

"Look, it's already late, shall we go to sleep? I'll just lie on the floor."

But before Kevin could get out of bed, Raiden Mei grabbed his collar again.

"Why are you sleeping on the floor?! I'm not going to eat you! Each of you has your own set of bedding, and don't move around at night! Do you hear me?!"

Raiden Mei snorted coldly, a blush rising from behind her ear to her cheek, her free left hand instinctively gripping the bed sheet, clearly not as relaxed as she appeared.

Faced with his senior's reprimand, Kevin obediently complied and began making his bed.

But as they lay down, a crucial issue arose: the Thunder's guest room only had a single bed, making the space incredibly cramped.

Therefore, even though they were separated by blankets, the two were very close together, and could almost clearly hear each other's breathing and heartbeat.

Kevin, with his vast experience, was relatively unaffected, but Raiden Mei, who was inexperienced in such matters, felt extremely uncomfortable and was drenched in sweat.

"You! Turn your head! Don't look at me!"

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Raiden Mei turned the boy's handsome face with one hand and scolded him fiercely.

At this moment, Kevin, half asleep and half awake, reluctantly turned over. Raiden Mei, whose heart had finally calmed down a little, soon felt sleepiness rising, her eyelids drooping, and her consciousness drifted into sleep.

As their breathing rhythm synchronized, the purplish-red light between their brows flickered faintly.

In the previous generation, late at night on campus, in the electromagnetic laboratory, two furtive figures closed the doors and windows and began skillfully operating the instruments, getting busy.

"Position 1, turbo boost, electromagnetic pressurization!"

Mei placed a silver-white plate into the central axis and nervously observed how the material changed under different electromagnetic fields.

"Bring me the pulse gun!"

Following the academically gifted girl's command, Kevin, standing to the side, adjusted the pulse gun as if he were a professional assistant trained a thousand times, and handed it over.

Under the impact of the blue-white beam of light, the silver-white armor plates only showed slight char marks. Mei shook her head in dissatisfaction with the experimental results and could only helplessly write down the experimental record in her notebook.

"Experimental results show that the upper-level Honkai Beast armor plates have a significant effect on reducing electromagnetic energy..."

Immediately, the academically gifted girl paused, glanced at her previous notes, and carefully made a summary.

"Based on 1021 comprehensive tests, it can be confirmed that pure energy attacks such as wind, lightning, fire, and ice are significantly less effective against Honkai Beast, while physical attacks are relatively more effective..."

"Personally, I believe that everything in nature has its counterpart, and this principle may also apply to the development of Honkai weapons."

"Currently, we can roughly understand that mechanical power restrains biological bodies, biological bodies restrain the integration of supernatural abilities, and supernatural attacks restrain mechanical operation..."

As the girl closed her notebook, Kevin thoughtfully brought her a glass of warm water and a hot towel, then leaned against the desk and asked expectantly.

"Scholar, we've been here almost a hundred times already. When are you free to grab that coffee you promised me?"

"I'll definitely do it next time!"

Mei's perfunctory words were matched by Kevin's helpless shout, which made the girl burst out laughing.

"How dare you laugh! You didn't even tell me that this laboratory belongs to my uncle. You clearly dug a pit for me to fall into!"

"If I hadn't been cautious, shrewd, and quick-witted, I almost would have crashed!"

Kevin looked miserable and rolled his eyes as he complained.

"We can do a few more experiments before dawn; I need more precise data."

Mei rested for a moment, picked up the pulse gun, and gestured to the lazy accomplice next to her to come and help.

"Again? Miss, please have mercy on me! I haven't slept well for a week!"

Kevin clutched his head in his hands, covering his face in Affliction.

"After I finish this job, I'll treat you to coffee this morning."

Mei turned her head and smiled enticingly. Kevin, who had been slacking off, was suddenly energized and excitedly busied himself with tasks.

Coffee? Maybe next time. I need to catch up on sleep this morning; it's not good for my health.

Mei watched Kevin's busy figure from behind, a slight smile playing on her lips.

However, Kevin, who had been fooled countless times before, also secretly raised the corners of his lips and whispered softly to himself.

Silly boy, I really don't care about coffee or anything, I just want you to stop looking ahead all the time and stop walking so fast.

Stop for a moment, take a break, and talk to me a little longer.

P. S.: I currently owe 14 chapters. I'll definitely finish them in February. I'll keep trying tomorrow.

The relationship between Mei and Kevin, told through a dual narrative, has a sense of entanglement that transcends time and space; perhaps it is this entanglement that makes the two characters more vivid.

Chapter 530, Section 558: So handsome, he must be gay!

In the previous generation, as the Honkai disaster intensified, the entire Canghai City was reduced to Ruins. In order to reclaim their territory, humans and Honkai Beast engaged in a bloody tug-of-war.

On the brutal battlefield, after three rounds of saturation bombardment, a group of ordinary soldiers wearing Tactical Exoskeleton advanced cautiously in a three-by-three formation.

Looking around, the ground was covered with rubble and broken walls, dried blood formed purplish-black stains, and inside abandoned vehicles, corpses were entangled together, some embracing and some struggling.

The occasional cracking sounds underfoot and the popping of water bags reminded these soldiers that they were walking on the bones of their own kind.

But this did not shake their will as soldiers. After all, it was covered with rubble and bricks, and if you lifted it up to take a look, the real battlefield would be even more bloody.

In the face of a true natural disaster, they have no time for grief; any distraction is fatal.

A young soldier saw a pebble roll out from behind a pillar ahead, and in a panic, he pulled the bolt of his rifle. Fortunately, he was kicked by the middle-aged officer behind him before he could fire.

"Honkai Beast won't hide in such a small place! Idiot!"

The experienced middle-aged officer rushed behind the pillar and saw that the trembling, gray-haired, blue-eyed little girl was unharmed, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Canghai City has been occupied for three months, and she's still alive. What a lucky little girl! It's a pity my daughter didn't have that blessing...

As the middle-aged officer's emotions softened, his eyes welled up with tears. Just as he was about to pick up the little girl from the Ruins, he noticed that the child was gripping the steel bars very tightly, her whole body curled up inwards.

Immediately, his expression changed drastically, and he realized his fatal oversight.

Indeed, as hunters, Honkai Beast rarely hide, but for humans who have cautiously survived for more than three months, hiding would mean...

"Scatter! There's danger!"

The middle-aged officer turned around in fear and roared, but it was too late. Several huge figures emerged from the soil.

The two soldiers, unable to dodge in time, were violently torn into four pieces, their colorful organs and scattered chunks of flesh mixed with metal fragments of the Tactical Exoskeleton, scattered everywhere.

Soon, these soldiers, fighting against their desperate situation, discovered that their weapons were of little effect against the Honkai Beast, and their fragile lives were being slaughtered one by one.
