Hot Pot-I Want Hot Pot!

Moreover, Waai Fu has one advantage over other Infected: no Originium is visible on his skin.

In this way, as long as it's not one of those overly restrictive areas that requires a blood test to enter, she can enter as an ordinary person.

Especially after using the new Oripathy blocking agent, the infection was kept under control within a safe range, and she could even live her life like an ordinary person.

"It's not that I'm sad."

I just felt that I could have done better back then...

Well, from what Waai Fu said, it's clear that she doesn't regret becoming Infected at all, but rather that she was still resentful because she chickened out during the battle when the other side fought so desperately.

A sigh escaped from nearby, who could only hope that Rhodes Island was a good place, allowing Waai Fu to continue living such a carefree life.

Waai Fu was also very interested in Suika's trip to Terra, after all, she looked to be about the same age as him.

While I was still studying in the city, others had already begun to walk on this land.

Suika then recounted her story with slight modifications.

Hearing that Suika was being pursued by the military and police because she hadn't entered Ursus through proper channels, she tensed up completely.

His brow relaxed after learning that he had been rescued by the Reunion Movement.

Hearing that they had moved their base with the Reunion Movement in the blizzard to avoid the Ursus military and police's capture of Infected, I couldn't help but shudder.

After all, Lungmen is so cold in winter, she couldn't imagine how cold it must be in Ursus, where the snow was waist-deep, as Suika.

As Suika recounted her arrival in Victoria, her successful contact with the locals, and her role as a Catastrophe Messenger with the help of the Swire family, the voice of Lee came from behind her.

"Catastrophe Messenger... I didn't expect Suika to be so capable."

Is it really that easy to pass the exam for Catastrophe Messenger outside?

"Of course not, but I didn't get in through exams, I got in through connections..." Suika's smugness as she said this gave those around her a new appreciation for her shamelessness.

"Suika, you don't need to underestimate yourself. Your skill level is no worse than the Catastrophe Messenger on Rhodes Island's main ship. It was thanks Chernobog you that we were able to successfully bring Chernobog out of the Catastrophe."

Logos, standing to the side, bluntly stated that Suika's abilities were not as weak as she herself had made up.

"Chernobog?" Lee asked, sounding surprised and uncertain after hearing Logos's words.

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"Are you the mysterious group from Chernobog?"

"It's not a mysterious figure, but we did come from Chernobog." Logos looked at Lee.

Lee pulled out a copy of the International Times and handed it to Logos.

"See for yourself..."

Hearing his words, Suika also looked over with a curious expression.

<The Ursus military stronghold of Chernobog was attacked by unidentified armed men. The men took the central control room hostage and forced Chernobog into the Catastrophe, resulting in severe damage to the Chernobog...>

Seeing this title Suika, I had no desire to read the content.

After all, they were already used to Ursus's shameless behavior.

As for the other party's actions of turning the tables, blaming others, and exaggerating their smear campaign...

All I can say is that this flavor is just right.

Suika said

"The old bastards in Ursus resort to smear campaigns when they can't win, but they can't even find any evidence to support their claims, so they just write 'unknown person.' It's hilarious."

After she finished speaking, she recounted some of the events that occurred at the time.

Upon hearing about the Ursus people's despicable methods, Waai Fu, bursting with a sense of justice, slammed his fist on the table and stood up.

Even the Lee couldn't help but frown. Sending an entire city into Catastrophe for one's own selfish reasons was a shameful and despicable act that deserved to be condemned by the entire Terra.

It's understandable why Rhodes Island didn't expose this.

If Rhodes Island were to reveal this, no one would believe it. Not only would it allow Ursus to identify their enemy, but it would also cause concern among other countries. After all, if you can even take over Ursus's military stronghold, who knows, your Mobile City might be next.

Therefore, if Rhodes Island were to promote this, it would be a completely thankless and futile effort.

According to Great Yan, who knew about this, spreading it would do nothing but harm.

Indeed, for the Great Yan, the Old Nobility who were more eager for war were a major threat, but the Great Yan would not sit idly by and watch the young emperor achieve unification.

For the Great Yan, Ursus, a country where old and new nobles check and balance each other, would be a good neighbor.

If either side completely overwhelms the other, it could pose a threat to the Great Yan, potentially leading to a full-scale war.

Therefore, the Great Yan will only use this opportunity to demand benefits from Ursus, but it will absolutely not take the initiative to announce it everywhere to pave the way for the young emperor's unification.

Lee understood the principle in an instant, but as soon as he understood, a question arose in his mind.

Regardless of the version, what made Rhodes Island manage to seize control of Chernobog from the Ursus army?

It's important to know that Chernobog is a major military stronghold, where Ursus's most elite troops are stationed.

Even a commercial city like Lungmen has countless territories and methods at its disposal, making it difficult for most organizations to control, let alone even find its destination.

But Rhodes Island was able to control it.

He couldn't help but feel that something was amiss.

Fortunately, with the official backing of Lungmen, he guessed that it was probably the Great Yan side that made the move; otherwise, he couldn't imagine how an ordinary organization could seize control of a city.

Seeing that it was almost time, Logos said it was time to leave, so Suika stood up, and the two of them went out together.

"Hiss, this Rhodes Island is not simple..." Hum said after Logos and Suika had walked out of sight.

"Of course, do you think an ordinary organization could take control of a city?"

Let alone an entire city, even controlling a single plot of land is extremely difficult.

"If it weren't for the official backing, I wouldn't even dare to imagine what kind of monsters are in this organization." Lee grinned and grumbled as he watched the two leave.

Chapter 442 Hot Pot, I Want to Eat Hot Pot

Suika and Logos were walking back when Suika called out to Logos just as they were about to part ways.

"Oh, right, there's something I've been wanting to ask you."

"Oh? What is it?" Logos stopped in his tracks.

"Well, logically speaking, you're a Sarkaz, right?"

The public's image of Sarkaz has never been very good, right?

So, wouldn't it seem Taihe to assign a Sarkaz to do these things today?

I remember there are quite a few other races on Rhodes Island too.

Suika voiced the doubts that had been lingering in her mind throughout the journey.

"Oh, that's the question. You asked a very good question."

Indeed, the Sarkaz have a bad reputation in Terra, and many people have strong prejudices against Sarkaz. Coupled with prejudices against the Infected, this double prejudice means that they would never cooperate with Rhodes Island.

By having us Sarkaz handle external communications, we can exclude the first group of people.

After all, if I can't even accept one Sarkaz, I probably can't accept Rhodes Island either, since you know there are quite a few Sarkaz on Rhodes Island.

Rhodes Island, while a company dedicated to helping those Infected, will not actively cooperate with those who reject us.

The mention of logos made Suika suddenly realize something.

Discrimination against those Infected, especially those Infected Sarkaz, is extremely severe in this region.

Therefore, when Rhodes Island makes contact with the outside world, rather than letting the other side get close and find that there are many Sarkaz Infected on its side and then act irrationally, it is better to take the initiative from the beginning and use the Sarkaz Infected to filter out individuals and organizations whose beliefs conflict with its own.

For example, even if Penguin Logistics and Lee's Detective Agency have a good relationship with Suika, if they really show discrimination against Sarkaz and Infected, Logos would not agree to the escort and medical treatment on board.

"What a brilliant, open strategy... I'm truly impressed."

Suika smiled and said goodbye to Logos.

Then we arrived at Swire's villa, and as soon as we entered, we saw a pot of hot pot broth in the living room.

It wasn't a basin, nor a bucket, but a pot.

The kind of pot used in the military for cooking large meals.

Seeing this pot of Suika, all I can say is, wow, this little tiger just had Shangshu's people stir-fry a whole new pot of hot pot base and then send it over.

It must have been tough for Shangshu's partners; transporting such a large pot of broth from Shangshu was no easy feat.

I lifted the pot up, Suika pad as a base, I felt its weight was acceptable. It looked big, but its actual total weight was only a little over a ton.

However, given that people in Lungmen prefer sweet and light flavors in their meals, the amount of chili peppers used in this hot pot broth is roughly equivalent to Lungmen's annual supply.

His exaggerated appearance, carrying a pot out of the house, attracted a lot of attention.

Some people were curious about what was in the pot.

Some people think this pot is definitely fake.

Some people thought it was some kind of performance art or street show.

There were clearly quite a few people in Lungmen who were bored.

They followed behind Suika, wanting to see where the pot was going to be taken.

The Great Yan people's love of joining in the fun was successfully triggered as more and more people gathered.

The Great Swarm crowd almost blocked the pedestrian walkway.

The news quickly reached the ears of the Guard Department.

When Little Tiger led his team over, he complained to his colleagues that there had been a lot more trouble in the city since the Major Crimes Unit left.

When they arrived at the crowd and saw Suika standing at the front with the pot in her hand, Swire slapped her forehead.

Okay, I guess I have no choice but to blame myself.

She hadn't expected the hot pot base she received to be so much.

At the time, the person only said that a pot was being delivered. She had been busy with work lately, so she had it delivered directly to the villa without checking it.

First, he sent operators to disperse the crowd to prevent them from blocking the road, and then one person walked up to Suika.

"You're just holding it up like that, all plump and fresh?"

"Don't tell me, you really shouldn't tell me."

"This thing really gets a bit sore after holding it for a while."

Suika admitted that she had been reckless.

However, with so many people watching, she was too embarrassed to put it down, so she had to pretend to be something she wasn't.

"Couldn't you just call a car?" Swire complained.

"I don't know the phone number..." Suika matter-of-factly.

"Then why don't you call me? I'll arrange for someone to send it back for you, won't I?"

Swire rubbed her cheek, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"I'm so sorry, you made the broth, and you delivered the vegetables. If I bring this pot home, I'll have to ask you for help. Hoshiguma will think I'm useless."

Suika expressed that she felt embarrassed because Swire had helped her too much.

Swire speechless upon hearing this.

What could have been resolved with a single phone call now requires me to make the trip myself. Is this what they call not wanting to bother myself...?

Heaven help me! I've been incredibly busy these past few days. I finally got back to the office, and before I could even settle in, I received a call and had to rush over.

This is the real problem, okay?

"Never mind, it's not far anyway, I'll walk you back..."

Swire sighed, then walked with Suika toward Suika 'Hoshiguma house.

"Oh, and remember to come have dinner together tomorrow, don't forget!"

As they were almost there, Suika gave Swire a little reminder.

"I know, I won't forget."

But will we be able to finish such a big pot?
