You Think You Can Walk Away After Offending My Doctor? / A Bet Between the Doctor and Klein!
"I'll go get you your drink."
Elysia happily left the room to get a drink in the living room.
"Why..."
Ling Xi smiled wryly at this. Elysia was really great, but... she was a little too caring!
However, it's not a big problem. After all, he doesn't care about his status or the other girls around him, so what right do I have to make demands of him?
"Ling Xi, your drinks are here!"
It only took about thirty seconds for Elysia to return with the drink, but...
She only took one bottle of drink and two straws.
"Hehe... Ling Xi, please."
Elysia happily brought the drink closer, carefully pointing the straw at Ling Xi.
Ling Xi "..."
Ling Xi naturally wouldn't dislike it; on the contrary, she even liked it very much. The reason she refused last time was simply because... well, we're already together now, so why bother talking about it?
Afterwards, Elysia sat on Ling Xi's lap, and the two shared their drinks...
"Duwuwuwuwu..."
Suddenly, Ling Xi's phone vibrated...
"Mmm..."
Elysia looked at Ling Xi with a hint of reproach, "What an unromantic tool..."
Ling Xi: "..." Is it my fault?
Ling Xi didn't want to complain about Elysia, so she took out her phone to see who was calling!
"Huh? It's that guy?"
Upon seeing the number, Ling Xi immediately frowned, because her intuition told her that trouble was brewing.
"The number of the Flame-Chasing Moths?"
Elysia also saw the real-life connection on her phone; it was the same number Ling Xi had dialed the day before yesterday.
"Elysia, do you think... I should answer?"
Ling Xi glanced at Elysia, seemingly intending for her to decide whether to answer the call.
"Oh? Are you sure you want to listen to me?"
Elysia glanced at Ling Xi with some surprise, then smiled at Ling Xi.
"Yes, of course."
Ling Xi smiled and looked at Elysia, saying, "Because you understand the Flame-Chasing Moths better than I Elysia, you definitely know better than me whether or not to answer this call!"
"Hmph, since you've put it that way, then..."
Elysia pressed the hang-up button on her phone screen and laughed, "Just don't answer it. To be honest, I can guess why they're calling at this hour."
Ling Xi: "Really? Let me see!"
Elysia: "???"
Chapter 200: You think you can just leave after offending my Doctor?
After hanging up the phone, the two continued drinking their beverages, and Ling Xi also took the opportunity to ask Elysia about her guess...
"Elysia, what do you think their purpose is?"
Ling Xi looked at the girl next to her with some curiosity. Didn't this girl just say that she could guess it with her butt?
"Hehe, that's easy. I'll send you to eliminate Shesha."
Elysia answered without hesitation, laughing, "After all, with yesterday's battle and previous losses, the Flame-Chasing Moths has lost nearly a tenth of its forces. Moreover, the various expenses and opposition have already given them a huge headache, so..."
"Their goal of restoring the glory of the Fire Chaser is now impossible to achieve, so the best option now is to eliminate Shesha. However, they are clearly unwilling to pay any more price, so asking for your help is the best and only option at present!"
"Eliminating Shesha ...that's something we could consider."
Listening to Elysia's words, Ling Xi nodded thoughtfully. After all, eliminating Shesha was in the interest of both humanity and the Doctor, since the Doctor himself was very eager for Shesha samples.
"What are you thinking about, you idiot..."
Elysia gave Ling Xi a sharp rap on the head and said irritably, "Have you forgotten what happened just two days ago? And... do you know how angry your Mobius was last night?"
"Huh? The Doctor is angry?"
Ling Xi immediately became serious and asked, "What happened? Who made the Doctor angry?"
"Hehe, what do you think?"
Elysia pursed her lips and said irritably, "Besides those idiots in the higher-ups of the Flame-Chasing Moths, who else do you think could it be?"
"Um... what exactly happened?"
Ling Xi was eager to know the details, since her Doctor was the kind of person who rarely got angry, and apart from Elysia, very few people could easily provoke Doctor.
"Here's what happened: when the Flame-Chasing Moths squad first wiped out Shesha, your Doctor applied for samples, and then..."
Elysia slowly recounted the events, concluding, "In the end, because he couldn't get the Shesha sample, Mobius cried and made a scene in the lab, but there was nothing he could do. It wasn't until noon today that the Flame-Chasing Moths changed its mind and sent the sample, but..."
Elysia glanced at Ling Xi and shrugged. "Sending the samples at this hour, what do you think they're up to?"
"Hmph, these guys..."
Ling Xi was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment, because... he really couldn't understand how there could be such stupid guys, so stupid that it seemed like they had lost their intelligence. What good would it do for them besides disgusting and making enemies of their own Doctor?
In short, Ling Xi felt that this group of people were so stupid that it was almost like they were fishing. Just like when someone is stupid in just the right way, you can't tell whether they are genuinely stupid or just fishing.
So, are you still planning to help?
Elysia looked at Ling Xi with a smile.
"Help me my ass! If you're not going to help, get lost!"
At first, Ling Xi did have the idea of helping, after all, eliminating Shesha could protect more people, reduce the losses of the Flame-Chasing Moths, and allow her Doctor to obtain samples, but...
After what Elysia just said, Ling Xi changed her mind immediately, Shesha and such...
You Flame-Chasing Moths can have your fun, I'm not putting up with you anymore!
"Yeah, that's right, help my ass!"
Elysia completely agreed with Ling Xi's words.
"Duwuwuwu..."
Just then, the phone rang again; it was the other party calling again.
Ling Xi "..."
Elysia "..."
"Maybe I should just block him."
Looking at the number on her phone, Ling Xi seemed to have no intention of answering.
"But if the other party knows your number, they can just call again with a different one, right?"
Elysia shrugged. "Why don't you just accept it? It's just that those guys want you to deal with Shesha. You can just refuse."
At the same time, Elysia added with a laugh, "Besides, if you keep not answering, that guy might keep bothering us. You don't want to suddenly get a call at night, do you?"
"Forehead..."
Ling Xi didn't know how to complain for a moment, but she picked up her phone and answered the call.
"Mr. Ling Xi, I apologize for bothering you. I hope I haven't disturbed you."
As soon as the call was connected, the other party was very respectful.
"Excuse me, I disturbed you."
Ling Xi didn't have a good impression of the Flame-Chasing Moths. After all, some things that had happened before had already made Ling Xi have a very bad impression of the Flame-Chasing Moths. The fact that she didn't hang up the phone immediately was already a great favor to her.
"Um... it's like this, Mr. Ling Xi, the Honkai Beast of Changkong City, Shesha, are currently posing a great threat and causing immense damage to humanity, but..."
The other party calmly said, "We, the Flame-Chasing Moths, tried to exterminate it, but unfortunately failed. Therefore, we intend to ask you with the utmost sincerity to eliminate Shesha and protect the safety of humanity. Of course, we will definitely give you a reward that will satisfy you."
"Oh?"
Hearing what Alicia said, Ling Xi looked at Elysia with some surprise. Well, Elysia could guess the other party's purpose even with her own eyes closed.
"Cough cough."
Ling Xi coughed lightly and said in a serious tone, "Well, I'm one of Mobius's people, so this matter... you'll have to discuss it with my Doctor."
"Eh..."
Upon hearing this answer, Fu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Ling, well... it seems that your Dr. Mobius has some misunderstanding about us, so he didn't directly agree to our request. That's why we came to ask for your opinion."
"Really? Then it goes without saying."
Hearing the other party's reply, Ling Xi smiled even more happily and said, "After all, such a big matter is something I can't make a decision on my own, so... if you have any questions, you should go talk to my Doctor. I have something to do, goodbye!"
Knowing Mobius's thoughts, how could Ling Xi possibly go against her Doctor? Therefore, knowing that Mobius would refuse, Ling Xi also refused without hesitation, and...
There's no use asking me for help with this. Let them go to Mobius. After all, I know very well how my Doctor was ostracized last night. Now they want my help? Simple, just have the Doctor agree!
As for the damage Shesha caused to the Flame-Chasing Moths, Ling Xi just wants to say... what does it have to do with me!
In short, Ling Xi hung up the phone decisively after speaking, giving the other party no chance to continue arguing.
"Hehe, well done, Ling Xi!"
After the call ended, Elysia, who had been watching the whole thing, gave Ling Xi a thumbs up and said with a smile, "I think Mobius will be very happy to know!"
"Hmph, of course. You offended my Doctor and expect me to help you?"
Ling Xi also gave a soft hum. Although the Doctor hadn't told her about this, she felt great as long as she could help the Doctor vent his anger!
Chapter 201: It's a bet between the Doctor and Klein!
"Doctor... headquarters has sent another message."
Still in the laboratory, Mobius was still studying the Herrscher Core Klein came in again.
"What are they planning now?"
Mobius looked at Klein with some displeasure, but this wasn't directed at Klein; it was directed at headquarters.
"Hmm..."
Klein glanced at the message and said, "Headquarters is willing to give the Doctor more authority and a seat in Congress in exchange for the opportunity to have Ling Xi help out."
"A seat in parliament?"
Mobius seemed somewhat surprised and chuckled, "Although I have no interest in these seats, why are they suddenly being so generous? Shesha really at the point where it can't be resolved without Ling Xi?"
"Although it hasn't reached that level yet, the headquarters can no longer afford to suffer even greater losses."
Klein shook his head helplessly and smiled, "In comparison, anyone would think that letting Ling Xi be the best choice."
"Hmph, of course!"
Hearing Klein's words, Mobius chuckled. This was... his old... cough cough, his guinea pig. He had to admit, his judgment back then was excellent. Initially, he only wanted to find a like-minded guinea pig to conduct experiments with, but...
Only after getting married did I discover that this guy had been hiding so many things from me, especially his Herrscher powers!
Of course, no matter what, Ling Xi belongs to me, and that makes me very proud.
"By the way, Doctor, what if they directly ask Ling Xi for help? What then?"
Speaking of this, Klein seemed a little worried. After all, from the conversation between Ling Xi and Mobius that day, he could tell that Ling Xi was someone he had actively eliminated Shesha, so...
"Don't worry, Ling Xi will never agree to that."
Faced with Klein's concerns, Mobius smiled confidently and said, "I made a deal with that guy that I won't agree to anything until I do, so their search is pointless."
"Hmm..."
Although Mobius said so, Klein clearly still somewhat skeptical.
