Brother and Sister Reunited / A Choice

"Alright, look how scared you all are. I don't think that Governor Wei is old at all. Considering the average lifespan of Terra, even if you wanted to be Governor Chen, you might have to serve as the... deputy for another sixty years before that."

Suika waved her hand dismissively and leaned back on the sofa with a look of disgust.

"I'll go find my friends first and try to find Misha as soon as possible." Hoshiguma said that ever since Suika said those words, she felt uncomfortable staying in this room, so she made an excuse to leave.

After Hoshiguma left, Suika looked at Chen, and Chen also stood up.

"I have to go to work... I'm going to be late, I have to go now."

To avoid hearing any more outrageous things from the "little" kid in front of him, Chen stood up and prepared to run away.

"By the way, Old Chen, could you do me a favor and ask Governor Wei if Rhodes Island would have any problems setting up an office in Lungmen, and what procedures would be required?"

Seeing Chen walk to the door, Suika thought of Rhodes Island and spoke up.

"I'll ask..." With that, Chen ran out the door without looking back.

After the two left, Suika glanced out the window, then touched her belly before slinging her backpack over her shoulder and walking out.

Inside the Governor's Mansion, Wei Yenwu looked at the intelligence report in front of him with a very strange expression.

To be fair, Suika was right. Having no descendants, he was indeed grooming Chen Hui-chieh as his successor, and he truly intended to hand over the city to her no matter what happened after he left Lungmen.

Moreover, he was confident that the person from Hundred Stoves wouldn't refuse.

But this matter has been brewing quietly behind the scenes all along, and now that it's suddenly been brought up, it feels a bit awkward.

It's like two people who have just met and have mutual attraction, but when an outsider suddenly says they are a couple, they don't know how to get along.

As for the matter of Rhodes Island setting up an office, which Suika mentioned, he didn't think it was a big deal.

Because of Talulah and Chen Hui-chieh, he had already sent people to investigate Rhodes Island, the only overseas organization with ties to the Reunion Movement.

Although its predecessor was sensitive, that person is already dead, so the remaining people are not so important.

And a professional medical organization specifically for Infected would not be rejected by Lungmen, a city known for its inclusiveness.

After all, there are quite a few Infected in the slums.

He was also very interested in the powerful Originium Inhibitor that Reunion Movement and Rhodes Island possessed.

Therefore, even if Suika hadn't said anything, he wouldn't have refused Rhodes Island's request to set up operations there.

Meanwhile, Suika and Scout met and then went to the Guard Department to bring Alex out.

"How have you been at the Guard Department these past few days?"

"Very good. The uncles and aunties at the Guard Department have been very kind to me, and the place I'm staying is very warm. To be honest, I haven't had such a peaceful rest in a long time."

Alex said this with great emotion.

"That's good.

"Have you ever wondered why I brought you to Lungmen?"

Suika looked at Alex.

Alex gave a somewhat goofy smile.

"All I need to know is that you won't hurt me, Suika. You'll take care of everything else, won't you?"

After hearing Suika's eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"You're much more sensible than that Lyudmila."

I believe she'll regret leaving later, but you, my friend, will remember this right choice for the rest of your life.

After speaking, Suika waved her hand, and the three of them left the Guard Department and went to a restaurant near the slums to sit down and eat.

The reason they came here wasn't because the food tasted better, but because they were both Infected.

Although not explicitly stated, most reputable restaurants still refuse to serve Infected the virus.

Only near these slums are there restaurants that allow Infected to enter.

Chapter 377 Reunion of Siblings

Just as Suika and the other two finished their meal, Suika's communicator suddenly rang.

I picked up the communicator and saw it was a message from Hoshiguma.

A smile involuntarily crept onto her lips as she glanced at Alex, who was patting his belly and burping contentedly. Was it really that fast?

Thinking of this, she answered the phone.

"Crooked?"

"We've made progress on the person you're looking for."

"Really!"

"In a way, it was also extremely lucky."

The great battle you fought in Ursus caused many ordinary people to flee, and some of them ended up in Lungmen.

After I report the person you're looking for, there happens to be one in this group who perfectly matches. Where are you? I'll have someone pick you up and take you there to see if that's the person you're looking for!

After hearing this, Suika told them the locations of the three of them.

Hoshiguma, on the other side, said they weren't far away and asked the three to wait while she arranged for someone to come and pick them up.

"What happened?"

After Suika sat back down, Scout sat up straight and said in a serious tone.

Suika looked at the two of them with a serious expression. "Something has indeed happened. Someone will come to pick us up in a little while. We can go with them."

Upon hearing Suika's words, the two immediately tensed up.

Given Suika's abilities, the fact that she's so serious shows just how serious this matter is.

You know, she's the kind of person who can act all nonchalant even in front of the Governor of Lungmen.

Soon, three rickshaws arrived at the gate. Under Alex's curious gaze and Scout's bewildered stare Suika was the first to get in.

"What are you looking at? Get in the car!"

Although he didn't know exactly what had happened, Scout, considering Suika's personality, figured he'd probably been tricked by her.

However, after returning from the tense environment of Ursus, it's good to relax with some harmless jokes.

Back on Rhodes Island, even Ace would occasionally tell corny jokes to relieve the mental stress after battle.

Scout was relieved to find out it wasn't a big deal, and the three of them were quickly taken to the slums.

Seeing the completely different scene around him compared to the center of Lungmen, Alex, the least experienced of them all, couldn't help but sit up straight.

Scout now understood why it was a rickshaw and not something else.

The road is only two or three meters wide, and there are places to put things on the side, so vehicles can't get in at all.

Even the rickshaws bumped and jostled as they moved inside.

At least they managed to get the three of them to their destination.

Before Scout could even speak after getting out of the car, she saw Suika reach out to stop her, then politely bow to someone not far away.

"Mr. Lin, I didn't expect to have bothered you."

Scout followed Suika's gaze and saw a somewhat elderly-looking man named Zalak sitting on the stairs outside a house not far away.

Lin was somewhat surprised to see Suika's polite demeanor, after all, he had heard about Suika's confrontation with Wei Yenwu last night.

He had thought she would treat him the way she had treated Wei Yenwu, but Suika was so polite, which made him realize for a moment that this girl was not easy to deal with.

"Ahem, the person you're looking for is inside."

The Rat King pointed inside the house, then stood up and swayed leisurely through the alley, disappearing from everyone's sight.

"This old man?" Scout asked softly after the Rat King left. The other man had given him a very extraordinary feeling, not much different from Wei Yenwu before.

"The Rat King of Lungmen, who assisted Wei Yenwu in taking charge of the Lungmen underworld."

He was also the underground king of Lungmen.

Although the introduction was brief, Scout understood the significance of every word; it was clear that this Rat King was, to some extent, Wei Yenwu's front man.

Moreover, to reach the position of the king of the underground world of Lungmen, one must be at the very top in terms of both strength and strategy.

No wonder he had the illusion of meeting Kal'tsit when he saw him.

"Then he'll come?" Scout asked, somewhat puzzled. People of that caliber must have something profound in their words and actions.

"I don't know, but he's in cahoots with Wei Yenwu, and we're considered to be on Wei Yenwu's side now, so he won't do anything to us."

As Suika spoke, she walked into the house.

At that moment, an Ursus girl inside the house was looking warily at the door.

He was staying peacefully in the place prepared for Ursus refugees in Lungmen when suddenly a group of burly men came in and started looking for him.

Out of curiosity, she went over to inquire, only to discover that the person they were looking for was actually herself.

She just walked right into the tiger's den.

She was very nervous when she was brought here, not knowing why the people from Lungmen had suddenly captured her.

Fortunately, the other party left after bringing her to this room. Apart from the fact that there were people outside the door who she couldn't escape from, she was not harmed.

But inner fear and unease continued to grow.

Just then, the door was pushed open, and a woman's voice could be heard coming in.

She looked over and froze when she saw the face of the person who entered.

The person who entered froze on the spot when he saw the girl inside.

Scout, who entered first, immediately spotted the living person inside: an unfamiliar Ursus girl. Why would Suika have come all this way to see her?

Before his doubts could even fully form, he sensed that Alex's aura beside him had become unstable.

"Elder sister!"

Okay, with that one sound, Scout no longer needs to guess who's inside.

But his curiosity only grew stronger.

Looking back, Alex had never mentioned his family or that he had an older sister.

And this woman was actually found in Lungmen.

He couldn't help but look at Suika, and then he saw her taking pictures with a camera.

"What's wrong with you?" Scout felt that Suika's unconventional behavior was somewhat beyond his comprehension.

Suika pretended to wipe away non-existent tears.

"Isn't this scene of siblings reuniting touching enough?"

Scout rubbed his temples. To be honest, it was indeed touching to see two long-lost siblings reunite, but if someone Suika, who was such a spoilsport, was around, he would say it wasn't at all.

"Well, you heartless bastard."

Suika shrugged and then looked at the two people who were burying their faces in their hands and crying.

"Don't cry yet. Let's leave here first. Hoshiguma- nee has arranged accommodations right next to Scout. If you want to cry, you can go back and cry slowly."

Interrupted by Suika, the two snapped out of their excitement.

I'm sorry to have troubled you.

Alex bowed deeply to Suika.

"Now that we've picked them up, let's not linger here and go back!" Suika pointed outside, and then the four of them walked out of the room.

Chapter 378 Choice

After returning to their resting place, Suika looked at Alex and Misha.

"After this matter is over, you will have two choices, which are also two paths forward."

One option is to return to Ursus and join the Reunion Movement. Alex should be familiar with the Reunion Movement, but they are all Ursus people, and Talulah is a decent leader. If her plan succeeds, then things should be fine afterward.

The second option is to join Rhodes Island after things are over.

The head of the Medical Department at Rhodes Island would be very happy to see both of you join the team; after all, she did bear some responsibility for what happened back then."
