The worldline has shifted... so that means the game plot I read before crossing over can only be used as a reference and can't be fully trusted?

Thinking of this, Xu Ziling nodded silently. Although the unknowns had increased, the story seemed to be getting more interesting.

Afterward, Xu Ziling looked at Elysia strangely again and asked:

"Miss Elysia, aren't you going to ask me what the Herrscher and Honkai in my eyes specifically refer to?"

"Hmm... I don't think I need to know?"

Elysia winked at Xu Ziling, resting her chin in her hand, and said with a smile, "After all, the information contained in Little Ziling's few words is enough for Miss Elf to digest for a while!"

"Hmm... alright, then I have no other questions."

Xu Ziling shook his head slightly at Elysia and said, "I also need time to digest the current plot."

"Mmm?~"

Elysia smiled, then got up and said, "Then... Little Ziling, you can digest it yourself first. It's getting late, how about Miss Elf makes you all a healthy lunch?"

"Cooking?"

Xu Ziling was a little surprised.

"Mmm?"

Elysia smiled, then pointed to the trash can in the laboratory piled with empty instant noodle buckets and said, "Look, the Doctor's trash can is full of instant noodle boxes... Eating only these won't do! And I, as the organization's officially appointed Inspector, naturally have the responsibility and obligation to take care of the daily lives of the personnel being investigated?~

As for the expenses... Mmm~ don't worry about that. When I came, I had already applied for enough funds from my superiors with Miss Elf's universally loved charm. It's enough for the research institute to eat for a whole year?

Hearing Elysia mention this, Xu Ziling was no longer sleepy.

It wasn't that Xu Ziling's cooking skills were particularly superb, but since someone was going to cook, it naturally meant there would be food. And Xu Ziling could clearly feel that although his current body could move freely, it was still in an extremely weak state, urgently needing energy intake. The pile of instant noodles before was completely insufficient.

Now that Elysia had volunteered to cook, Xu Ziling shamelessly said:

"Ahem... May I be so bold as to ask, Miss Elysia, could you make an extra portion for me in the lunch you're about to prepare?"

"Mmm?~? Isn't that a given? Or... in your eyes, is Miss Elf such an unfeeling person?"

Elysia chuckled wickedly, then poked Xu Ziling's chest with her finger and said, "Is it because Miss Elf was only talking to Doctor Mobius... and left you guys aside, causing you to feel a little upset?"

After poking, Elysia retracted her finger that had just poked Xu Ziling's chest and muttered regretfully:

"So hard... it seems you really are a boy... what a shame..."

"Ahem."

Xu Ziling coughed tactfully, wisely ignoring Elysia's muttering, and continued the previous topic, saying, "The Pink Elf in my heart is naturally a person as brilliant and flawless as a crystal flower. She would never care about a companion's appetite... It's just that I might eat a bit too much, I hope Miss Elf doesn't mind."

"Mmm~ No problem, this Miss Elf will definitely make you a super-sized lunch?~"

Elysia seemed to enjoy Xu Ziling's praise, nodding with satisfaction. A hint of surprise appeared in her pink-blue eyes, and she immediately waved to Blanca, who had already walked out of the research institute's lounge area behind Xu Ziling.

"Hey, hey, hey~ Our cute little Blanca, as the Inspector, Miss Elf is planning to cook lunch for the research institute. Do you have any requests for lunch? Feel free to ask, Miss Elf knows quite a few dishes?

"Uh..."

Facing Elysia's inquiry, Blanca's gaze flickered. She knew about Elysia's reputation as the world's number one lesbian. If it were before marriage... she wouldn't have minded getting closer to Elysia, but now... Blanca was afraid that if she talked too much with Elysia, she might be swayed by her.

After thinking for a while, Blanca adopted a more diplomatic approach and said:

"Um... don't worry too much about me, Elysia, I can just eat instant noodles."

"How can that be? Blanca is already a mother, how can she keep eating instant noodles?"

Elysia skipped towards Blanca and then reached out, patting Blanca's head with a hint of playful reproach.

"Forget it, Little Blanca probably can't think of any nutritious meals besides instant noodles... Hehe~ But the thoughtful Miss Elf will prepare something for you, it will definitely suit your taste while providing the nutrition a mother should consume?

Blanca lowered her head and said softly:

"I understand the reasoning... but how do you know my taste?"

"Don't ask."

Elysia put her finger to Blanca's lips and said, "Just say it's Elf's Magic?~"

Hearing the conversation between the two women, Xu Ziling on the other side glanced thoughtfully at Blanca's currently unremarkable stomach.

From Elysia's words, did this mean Blanca was already pregnant with Griseo at this time?

If he built a good relationship with Blanca later, could he still meet Griseo before she was six years old?

The difference between twelve and before six... Heh, Cosmos, I'm far ahead of you (laughs).

"Alright."

On the other side, Elysia patted Blanca's shoulder, then looked back at Xu Ziling and said with a smile, "Now, Miss Elf is going to cook, right? And buy some nice clothes for everyone. Please look forward to it~"

With that, Elysia smiled and nodded at Xu Ziling and Blanca before walking over, picking up the toy gun she had brought from the laboratory floor nearby, slinging it over her shoulder, and leaving with great enthusiasm.

And after Elysia's little stunt, although Mobius was successfully angered into unconsciousness, it couldn't be denied that her appearance had perfectly harmonized the relationship between the three people in the laboratory.

The most direct manifestation was that Blanca was no longer as afraid of Xu Ziling. It seemed that after seeing Xu Ziling's previous conversation with Elysia, he understood that even a mysterious creature that emerged from a stone statue possessed human emotions, rather than being a fierce and brutal, uncanny entity.

"Um... Senior Blanca, can I call you that?"

After Elysia left, Xu Ziling scratched his head and then looked at Blanca, saying, "I'd like to ask, where is the laboratory's rest area? I want to go see the Doctor."

Xu Ziling took the initiative to start a conversation. Blanca was taken aback for a moment before quickly replying, "As for the name, um... use whatever you like. The laboratory's rest area is this way. The Doctor is already asleep, so remember to be quiet when you go to see them."

"Oh, okay."

The laboratory swayed back and forth, and Mobius opened her eyes.

She said she had just had a dream after being tricked twice.

In the dream, the Pink Demon discovered her
