Klein Doesn't Dislike Ling Xi! / The Doctor Decides Not to Go Home for a Month!
Ling Xi quickly came over to support Klein, and then saw the touching scene of her upper and lower eyelids desperately trying to stay together. At this moment, Ling Xi knew very well that Klein was probably close to her limit.
"Hmm... it's nothing, I'm just a little tired, I'm fine..."
Klein shook his head and prepared to get up again to continue his journey to the laboratory.
"I suggest you rest for a while..."
At this moment, Ling Xi knew very well that she couldn't let her continue like this, otherwise she would die suddenly sooner or later.
"It's... it's okay..."
Klein shook his head again, then tried to get up, "Um..."
Suddenly, she felt a slight numbness in her neck, and then... she completely lost consciousness.
"Whoosh..."
Holding the "sleeping" Klein in her arms, Ling Xi breathed a sigh of relief. The Lightning Herrscher Core is forever a god!
Chapter 211: Klein doesn't dislike Ling Xi.
"Um?"
He didn't know how much time had passed, but after Klein woke up, he immediately got up to check the time, and...
17:46...
Klein "..."
"Hmm... Did I actually fall asleep...?"
Klein rubbed his temples, feeling a bit puzzled, because normally he could last another eight hours, but... he suddenly fell asleep last night, but...
Klein. For some reason, his neck felt a little numb last night, and... did he really fall asleep naturally last night?
Never mind, let's go find the Doctor first.
It was almost 6 p. m. Klein knew he had slept all day, and if he didn't go to see the Doctor soon, the Doctor would definitely be very angry.
Two minutes later...
"Doctor ..."
Klein pushed open the door to Mobius's laboratory and found Mobius there. He immediately said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Doctor, last night I..."
"Oh, it's Klein."
Upon seeing Klein, Mobius didn't seem angry at all, but instead smiled and asked, "How was your sleep?"
"Um... Doctor..."
Klein seemed to want to say something.
"Alright, that's enough."
Mobius interrupted Klein, walked over to Klein, patted her on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Ling Xi explained the situation to me last night. I'm sorry, I've been busy lately, so thank you for your hard work. Starting today, you should still get eight hours of sleep every day. There's no need to rush the research."
"I..."
For a moment, Klein seemed unsure how to respond. It turned out that Ling Xi had explained the situation for him last night. That was good; at least the Doctor wasn't angry.
"Coo coo coo..."
With a series of sounds from the author...
"Klein, you haven't had dinner, have you?"
Mobius smiled at Klein. "I bet you came to the lab as soon as you woke up, didn't you?"
"Eh..."
Klein awkwardly touched his nose.
"Perfect timing, I haven't eaten either, let's go together."
Mobius immediately put down his work and prepared to take Klein to dinner. After all... Ling Xi had said some things to him last night, perhaps...
I really need to change my attitude towards Klein. I don't know when it started, but I've gotten used to having Klein around. And if... what if Klein really leaves me one day? I'm afraid I won't know what to do.
Therefore, while ensuring your work and research, you should also take care of your best assistant a little!
"Okay, sure."
Since Mobius had taken the initiative to speak, Klein naturally wouldn't refuse. He turned and walked with Mobius towards the research institute's cafeteria. At the same time... Klein thought for a moment and said, "Um, Doctor... last night..."
Klein rubbed his neck and laughed awkwardly, "I think it must have been Ling Xi who put me to sleep."
"Oh? What happened?"
Mobius asked curiously, "Ling Xi put her to sleep?" Wait, Klein, you wouldn't happen to be...
"Ugh... At first, I bumped into Ling Xi, and then..."
As for what happened last night, Klein didn't hide anything at all. He smiled helplessly and said, "At the end, when Ling Xi hugged me, I suddenly felt a tingling sensation in my neck, and then I lost consciousness. So... I think it must have been Ling Xi who did it."
"Oh... I see."
After listening to Klein's explanation, Mobius nodded thoughtfully and smiled strangely, "I didn't expect that guy to actually care about you. Heh, he actually used such a little trick."
Klein "..."
Klein remained silent. Anyway... although he was quite grateful to Ling Xi for what happened last night, he wasn't going to take the blame for it.
"Klein, what do you think of Ling Xi?"
Mobius suddenly asked this question.
"Um?"
When asked by his Doctor, Klein answered without hesitation, "It's fine, and... well, anyway, he's good to the Doctor and good to us, everything's fine."
Mobius: "..." Your assessment...
"So, you don't dislike him?"
Mobius looked at Klein with a smile.
"Dislike? Of course not."
Klein, without any guile, said, "At least in our lab, besides the Doctor, my favorite person is Ling Xi. Danzhu and the other one are just a bit... Anyway, although Ling Xi is not very skilled and easily messes up her work, at least she is willing to help me seriously."
"Doctor, why are you suddenly asking this?"
After he finished speaking, Klein looked at Mobius with some curiosity.
"It's nothing, just trying to start a conversation."
Mobius shook his head slightly and smiled, "Alright, enough talk, let's have dinner first. After we finish eating, we have to go back to the lab."
"Okay, Doctor!"
Klein nodded seriously. Indeed, he had slept well last night, but the Doctor's experiment... hadn't even started yet!
"Damn, this game is trash, it's ruined my youth..."
In the temporary room at the research institute, Ling Xi threw her phone down in a fit of rage, feeling utterly helpless as an ordinary player.
"What's the matter?"
Elysia, who was sitting to the side, curiously came over. She wanted to see what game had made Ling Xi so angry.
"It's nothing, just an incursion into the territory of the Great Wu..."
Ling Xi pursed her lips, uninstalled the trashy game, stretched, and said to the fairy beside her, "Elysia, is everything alright with Shesha?"
Although Ling Xi had completely Shesha and burned Shesa last night, the heart remained an unstable factor. It was for this reason that Ling Xi didn't go home today, but continued to stay at the research institute. After all...
What if Shesha really does come back to life with this heart? If I'm not there, wouldn't Shesha be slaughtered in the research institute?
Therefore, to ensure everything goes smoothly, Ling Xi plans to stay at the research institute for a few days until her heart is transferred to a safer location, or until it is confirmed that no further accidents will occur, before Ling Xi can leave the research institute with peace of mind.
In any case, I cannot put Mobius in danger!
"Don't worry, everything is normal."
Elysia laughed and said, "Shesha's heart is stored in the deepest basement, a full fifty meters below. Even if Shesha is resurrected by the heart, as long as it's not Shesha that's more than twenty meters below, it can at least be trapped for six hours!"
Finally, Elysia added with a laugh, "Of course, if it's just the heart that's being revived, then I think even if Shesha were to be revived, he would probably only be in a form less than ten meters tall..."
"Hmm... I hope so."
Ling Xi didn't comment much on this, after all, humanity's understanding of Shesha is still too limited. Hopefully, the Doctor and Mei can obtain the final data on Shesha as soon as possible!
Chapter 212: The Doctor Decides Not to Go Home for a Month!
And so, Ling Xi and Elysia stayed at the research institute for three whole days. During this time, Mobius also invited Mei to study Shesha together, and also shared some of the theoretical concepts of the Stigmata Gene with Mei.
Of course, Mobius didn't tell Mei about the finished product of the Stigmata Gene, since this thing is something that absolutely cannot be exposed now.
Friday, around 4:30 PM...
"Doctor, are you going back tonight?"
Ling Xi came to the laboratory again and slightly disturbed Mobius, who was concentrating on studying the Shesha sample.
"Go back? No, I'm too busy lately."
Mobius shook his head and laughed, "After all, you first gave me the Stigmata Gene, and then you gave me the Shesha sample. I estimate that it will take at least a few months to study these two things."
"Forehead..."
Ling Xi opened her mouth, unsure what to say. After all... judging by the timeline, the Doctor had been at the research institute for almost a week. She had thought that today, Friday, she could pick up Mobius and take him home to rest for a while, but...
It seems I've fallen out of favor. Ever since the Doctor obtained the Shesha sample and the Stigmata Gene, I haven't wanted to go home...
"Well, Doctor, I'll go pick Seele up and take her home first, then I'll go back to the lab."
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Xi decided to respect Mobius's opinion, after all, for her Doctor, scientific research was everything.
"Let's just forget it. Don't come over tonight after you go home."
Mobius shook his head and smiled, "As for Shesha, there's absolutely no need to worry about him now. Although Shesha's heart theoretically still has the potential to revive him, don't underestimate the facilities of the Flame-Chasing Moths. Plus, we've added over a thousand troops here, so..."
"You really don't need to worry. Even if Shesha is resurrected, we have plenty of time to evacuate."
"This..."
Ling Xi still seemed a little hesitant. After all, the Doctor had studied Shesha's heart and was very certain that Shesha still had the possibility of being resurrected. This made her a little uneasy about leaving Mobius in the laboratory and going home by herself.
"Alright, you can go pick up Seele now."
Mobius stood in front of Ling Xi, then leaned slightly closer to Ling Xi and said with a smile, "Also, I think I said last time it would be within a week, but look how many days it's been now? Half a month already, and you still haven't completed your task."
"Um... well, I've been quite busy lately, and besides, it takes time for me to eliminate Shesha for the Doctor!"
Ling Xi was still a little worried about this, after all, Mobius had said that if things weren't settled within a week, she would send Seele back to Europe. Although Elysia later assured her that Mobius was just joking, but...
I'm still a little worried.
"Hmph, nonsense. If I didn't know the reason, I would have bought Seele's plane ticket long ago."
Mobius pursed his lips and snorted, "Alright, I'll give you another month. I probably won't be leaving the research institute for this month, so by the time I come home next time, you'd better have her sorted out by then."
"Huh? A month..."
Ling Xi looked at Mobius with some hesitation. "Doctor, are you... planning not to go home for a month?"
"I'm busy."
Mobius smiled and shook his head. "You said it, and I believe it too. The Honkai... will only get stronger and stronger. Therefore, we humans may not have much time left. So, I need to achieve true evolution as soon as possible. If we can complete the research on the Stigmata Gene a day earlier, then humanity can evolve a day earlier, and the possibility of continuing... will be one step higher."
Ling Xi just silently looked at Mobius without saying a word to refute him. Indeed... this is the real Mobius, the Mobius who is willing to give up anything for the sake of research.
"By the way, if you can't hold back, then don't come looking for me. You can..."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Go find Seele, or... should I hand Klein over to you?"
"Pfft... cough cough..."
Ling Xi almost choked. I can understand Seele, but what the heck is Klein?
Why are you so agitated?
Compared to the somewhat disheveled Ling Xi, Mobius appeared very calm, smiling as he said, "Ling Xi, do you think marriage is important to us? Obviously, it's just a formality, and..."
Mobius rested his chin on his hand and said with a smile, "You seem quite concerned about Klein, and as for this matter... I don't actually object. After all, Klein is likely to be unwanted in the future, so it's up to me, the Doctor, to take care of her!"
