When Fang Zheng returned to the research institute carrying Kuroko, Misaka Mikoto and Saten Ruiko were stunned at the sight of Kuroko covered in blood.
"Kuroko!!"
Misaka Mikoto rushed over in a single stride and stared fixedly at Kuroko in Fang Zheng's arms.
"Who did this?!"
"Keep it down. She just fell asleep."
Fang Zheng glared at Misaka Mikoto. Only then did she come to her senses, hurriedly cover her mouth, and stand to the side. Meanwhile, Saten Ruiko was anxiously hopping from foot to foot.
"Do you need our help? Mr. Fang Zheng, those injuries look serious..."
"I've already treated her injuries. She just lost too much blood and needs to rest. Ruizi, go make something that replenishes blood and energy and is easy to digest. Rem, tidy up the infirmary. Ram, get some clean clothes and wipe the blood off her..."
"Okay."
Although everyone had been flustered at first, Fang Zheng's orderly commands gradually calmed the girls down. Saten Ruiko immediately ran toward the kitchen, while Ram and Rem quickly left to handle their respective tasks. Index looked from one person to another.
"Fang Zheng, Fang Zheng, do you need my help?"
"Here, have a lollipop. Go gnaw on it somewhere."
After casually using a lollipop to send Index away, Fang Zheng carried Kuroko to the guest room and carefully laid her on the bed. Then he gestured at Misaka Mikoto beside him.
"Oh, right. Go back to Tokiwadai and bring her a few changes of clothes."
"Ah... okay..."
Misaka Mikoto seemed preoccupied. She looked once more at Shirai Kuroko lying on the bed, then hurriedly turned and left.
Everyone moved quickly. Before long, everything Fang Zheng had asked for was done. Ram had changed Shirai Kuroko into a surgical gown from the institute and cleaned her body,
