Final Arrangements / Herrscher of Sentience: "You're the One Who's Stupid and Loaded! Your Whole Family Is!"

The problem is that the condition of [establishing cooperation with Rhodes Island and sending someone there for treatment] was already a request made by Mobius when they were negotiating the cooperation, which shows its importance.

But that's precisely why Miss Chief is so confused...

"Heh~ I thought Miss Chief Administrator was going to ask some important question~"

Upon hearing this, Mobius first chuckled lightly and teased, then his expression slowly turned serious, and a glint of malice flashed in his eyes as he said, "If it's just those two conditions you mentioned, then Rhine Lab will definitely be better off with me in charge."

"But... there might be filthy flies here eyeing my lab rats!"

"..."

Watching Mobius perform his dramatic change of expression right in front of him, Kristen stroked his chin and suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Well, she imagined countless reasons... she even considered that Ifrit, the test subject, might have some unknown secret, but she never thought it would be for this simple reason...

"With your strength... you shouldn't be afraid of them, right?" After a strange silence, Kristen spoke again.

"I'm not afraid, but it would be really annoying, wouldn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Mobius, whose expression had returned to normal, nodded slightly and said:

"Besides, I will be devoting myself to researching the cure for Originium infection for a long time to come, and I don't have much energy to take care of a child."

"In this situation, wouldn't it be better to find a safe and reliable place to temporarily foster the animals?"

"I see. It seems you really value this test subject." After hearing Mobius's words, Kristen's eyes flashed with understanding, accepting this reason.

"Hmph, it's just that finding suitable guinea pigs is difficult," Mobius retorted with a light snort.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Before you reach an agreement with Rhodes Island, Ifrit's placement is also a problem. If you don't want to deal with it, then send someone over there."

"Who?"

"Structural Department, Silence."

While Mobius and Kristen were discussing various matters and arranging personnel, on the other side—

Saria asked Silence many questions, but just like she had asked others before, she got absolutely nothing.

"Is there really nothing unusual?"

"Yes, I haven't noticed anything unusual during the few days I've been taking care of Ifrit." Faced with Saria's final, reluctant question, Silence lowered her eyes and answered each word carefully.

Silence has completely misunderstood Saria. In her view, someone brought Ifrit back to drag the child back into hell to be tormented.

In this situation, she naturally wouldn't tell the person in front of her what she knew.

"I'm sorry to have bothered you today. Don't overthink things, just get some rest." Seeing that Silence's complexion hadn't been good all day, Saria frowned slightly and couldn't help but remind her.

In fact, under normal circumstances, Saria would probably have noticed Silence's unusual behavior long ago. After all, Silence is someone who can't keep secrets and isn't good at lying.

However, today's situation is special. Saria didn't think much of Ifrit's disappearance, simply attributing all the abnormalities in the person in front of her to suffering too much of a blow.

"Yes, I will. Don't worry about it, Director Saria. Please continue with your work." Silence nodded gently in response to Saria's words of advice, then replied softly.

"Okay, I'll be going now."

Although Saria was somewhat worried about Silence's current state, considering the pile of things weighing on her shoulders, she ultimately chose not to linger and bid farewell before leaving.

"..."

Watching Saria's departing figure, Silence couldn't help but bite her lip, the complex emotions she had been suppressing finally surfaced.

After discussing matters with Kristen, Mobius did not rush back to work, but instead returned to the secret laboratory outside.

You see, Ifrit is still lying there. And besides injecting the antidote to wake her up, Mobius has a few things to tell Charmander.

"Hmm, here...!"

After being injected with the antidote, Ifrit slowly opened her slightly dazed eyes a moment later. However, this didn't last long, as she quickly noticed the unfamiliar surroundings and became alert.

Just as Charmander was cautiously surveying the unfamiliar laboratory, the door suddenly opened...

P. S.: I spent a lot of time at my grandma's today, so it looks like I'll be staying up late tonight. To be honest, I didn't expect this volume to be so difficult to compile. I even considered writing about cats, but I can't leave these things unexplained.

Chapter 152 The Final Arrangements

"!"

"You... you you you!"

Ifrit looked in the direction of the voice, and upon seeing who it was, her pupils dilated in shock. She stared at the person with a face full of astonishment, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

"Heh~ What, you don't recognize me just because I look different?"

Mobius, who was carrying in the food, was amused by Ifrit's series of reactions and couldn't help but tease her playfully.

Ifrit, taken aback by Mobius's teasing, looked at him with sparkling eyes and said, "Mobius, how did you suddenly grow so big! And... um, Mobius is indeed very beautiful now that she's grown up!"

"It's just a shell."

"But it's really beautiful! The Mobius is even more beautiful than the Water Spirit!" Ifrit hurriedly said seriously after hearing Mobius's calm reply.

"Heh~"

Upon hearing this, Mobius didn't show it on his face, but a subtle hint of pleasure flashed in his eyes.

"Alright, let's eat this. It's almost evening."

As she spoke, Mobius placed the plate in her hand in front of Charmander.

"Ah, is it already so late? It smells so good!"

"You've just recovered, don't eat too fast."

Seeing Ifrit's mouth watering at the food and about to devour it, Mobius couldn't help but remind her.

"Okay! Wait... are you feeling better?"

Upon hearing Mobius's words, Ifrit quickly agreed, but after realizing what he meant, she was slightly stunned and looked at the person beside her incredulously, wanting to ask for confirmation.

"Yes, apart from the [Flame Demon Fragment] in your body, your illness is cured." Upon hearing this, Mobius nodded slightly and then spoke the truth.

She had no interest in hiding such trivial matters...

"Hmm, although I don't know what that 'Mobius' you're talking about is, but... am I considered a normal child now?"

As she spoke, Ifrit looked at Mobius with expectant and excited eyes.

"Yes, little mouse, you're a normal child now."

Mobius hadn't wanted to answer Ifrit's obvious question, but after meeting her expectant gaze, he ultimately decided not to disappoint her.

"Okay! Thank you Mobius!"

Upon hearing a definitive answer from Mobius, Ifrit excitedly stood up immediately from the bed.

Actually, she originally wanted to give Mobius a hug, but unfortunately she was noticed first and dodged away.

"Alright, hurry up and eat. I have something to tell you later, and your Silence will be coming over to see you soon."

Mobius looked at Ifrit, who was unable to contain her excitement, and a hint of helplessness appeared in his serpentine eyes.

"Um."

After Ifrit finished eating, Mobius gave her a brief warning as usual, to prevent Charmander from revealing his identity.

"I understand, I won't tell anyone!" Ifrit replied very seriously to Mobius's instructions.

But then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she hurriedly asked, "How am I supposed to contact you, Mobius? You won't stop coming to see me, will you...?"

After hearing Ifrit's question, Mobius calmly took out a small ornament, placed it in front of her, and then said unhurriedly:

"I'll visit you when I have the chance. As for contacting you, little guinea pig, you have three chances~"

"Hey, only three times..."

Ifrit picked up the special ornament in front of her, inlaid with green gemstones, and said with a hint of regret.

"Yes, you only have three chances, so use them wisely when it matters!"

"Okay! I understand."

After spending some more time with Ifrit, teasing her, and taking her out of the laboratory, Mobius left the house before Silence arrived.

Before Ifrit goes to Rhodes Island, she and Silence will stay here temporarily, which can be considered as a way to avoid trouble.

As for Silence's work, Mobius has already made arrangements for her; she can simply hand over the work later.

After leaving Ifrit's place, Mobius didn't rush back. Instead, she took a rare stroll through Trimount, a city she had hardly explored since arriving.

After all, everything has been pushed to the point of being a done deal, so Mobius is in a pretty good mood right now.

Halfway through his stroll, Mobius seemed to notice something, a slight smile playing on his lips. He thought to himself, 'Hua, you guys are really quick; you've reached Lungmen so fast!'

'It's just normal travel speed, not as fast as you and Sakura, not fast at all.' Although Hua didn't expect Mobius to contact her suddenly, she still responded in her mind out of politeness.

"Hua, no need to be so modest. Heh~ Speaking of which, we haven't met in this world yet. Want to come and play with me?" Upon hearing this, a smile flashed quickly in Mobius's serpentine eyes, and then he said with a hint of "malice".

Although Mobius possesses the memories of "Mobius," she is still quite interested in China, or rather, in China's body.

Before Hua could even answer, Senti couldn't help but vehemently refuse, "Don't even think about it! This old fogey isn't going there!"

'What a pity~ Well then... would you like to come over Herrscher of Reason? If it's you, you'd be very happy to be here too~'

Even if... even if you call me the Herrscher of Herrscher of Reason, you can forget about it!

'What a pity~'

Mobius strolled through the streets, mentally teasing Senti, until he was exhausted before returning to Rhine Lab.

Unlike before, this time she didn't return to the lab, but went straight to her dormitory room.

With little time left in the day and in a good mood, Mobius decided to relax and recharge a bit.

After all, starting tomorrow, she will be fully immersed in her busy work and will no longer care about worldly affairs.

What? You're asking what to do with a plan that's not yet fully completed?

Of course, Sakura will be in charge of keeping watch and supervising...

For matters that have already reached a point of no return, Miss Fox is more than capable of handling them.

--End of this volume.

P. S.: This ending was really rushed, but it's not a big deal anyway, there are quite a few things that will be mentioned in the next volume. It was really difficult to write, I got stuck at the last point, let's go for the Lungmen Cats volume!

Lungmen Cats (Main Cat, Secondary Cat Hua, Senti)

Chapter 1 Senti: "You're the one who's stupid and rich! Your whole family is stupid and rich!"

As night falls, the city gradually dons its neon-lit attire, looking incredibly lively and bustling.

A beautiful girl with long gray hair and red eyes stood angrily by the roadside, yelling, "Ugh, I'm so angry! That guy Mobius, how dare he tease me!"

"Since you can't win the argument, Senti, don't try to get involved next time. Also, we should look for a place to stay." Hua said with a hint of helplessness, looking at the sullen Senti beside him.

"?"

"You old fogey, you can't argue with me! I just wasn't taking it seriously!" After hearing Hua's "comforting" words, the person who was already sulking completely exploded.

"Forehead..."

"Snort!"

Finally, after Hua spent some time coaxing Senti back to her senses, he took her to find a hotel to stay in.
