"The problem is that they can't find the Lord." Natasha said something that left Liu Bai speechless. "You know that our master lives in the basement of Shencheng Medicine, but to them, our master is a crazy scientist who is hard to find. If you are not an alien, it is impossible for you to see the master, okay?" "..." "One more thing, you don't think Gray Snake and I are well-known, do you? Believe it or not, before today, when I stood in front of Anti-Entropy, Anti-Entropy couldn't recognize me as a cadre of World Snake? Not to mention Gray Snake, that guy has a better identity. Only the Chamber of Commerce is familiar with Gray Snake and me for various reasons. Even so, they only know a little about our Lord, and don't even know his name - don't doubt Gray Snake's ability to handle the aftermath." Liu Bai thought about it and was speechless. That’s right, World Snake is not an organization that shows off in public. This seems to be the style of World Snake. "Ye Lan knows that the Sky Dome District is the home of our World Snake, the snake nest, but she definitely doesn't know that Shencheng Medicine is owned by the World Snake. Shencheng Medicine is still a good partner of Tianming. If the World Snake was a naked organization, Ye Lan would have personally brought people to act as a matchmaker." "...In other words, Anti-Entropy tied me up in order to get in touch with the World Serpent?" "Not only that, it also means to use it as a bargaining chip - if Ye Lan really told Anti-Entropy all the information about the World Serpent, then Anti-Entropy should have an understanding of the Lord's preferences... As far as I know, Anti-Entropy can't produce anything that the Lord is interested in at the moment."
"...Even the Inazuma Group can't come up with one?" "Please Liu Bai, please understand the curiosity level of our master... Well, it's because our master loves you so much." Natasha sighed. "Anyway, if you give them time, we can definitely get it out, but if we are really racing against time... I'm afraid we don't have the time to prepare. In addition, they know very little about your personality, so they can't cope with the situation by arresting you, a guy who is suspected to be 'hard currency'." "Now that you put it that way, I don't think we can back down from this matter. But at this stage, as long as Gray Snake is willing to make contact, we can start negotiations, right?" Liu Bai realized one thing, although the process was not very pleasant, the basis for negotiation had been laid. But if Mobius opens his mouth too high and the negotiations fail... Well, he will be targeted again. And this matter will definitely involve Mebius, and Gray Snake cannot handle it alone. Natasha's expression became a little strange. She looked at Liu Bai and immediately felt some resonance. Mobius...although he has a mature and intellectual side, he also has a willful side. Putting aside other things, Mebius will definitely hold a grudge about this incident, but it is still unclear whether or when he can get over it. Liu Bai suddenly thought of something. General Raiden who can have a death flag...is it Raiden Zhen? "Sister, what kind of illness do you think needs to be treated by our Lord?" "of course……" Natasha realized the problem halfway through her words. Our lord is a doctor who specializes in Honkai disease! No, that Thunder General would get Honkai Disease? Isn't he one of the strongest people in the world?
"...I think I know why the Inazuma Group didn't show up." If this is really possible, then the other party would be an excellent experimental material for our master! There's no way to start this without discussing it first! If she speaks first, the eldest child in her family might also be put on the negotiation table as a bargaining chip! "Ah, but is the lord's medical ethics good?" Liu Bai remembered that although Mobius was a mad scientist, he had good medical ethics. “If I have to say, it’s actually very good.” Speaking of this, Natasha showed a little emotion on her face. "The Lord is... at least he used to be the only top scientist who treated Honkai patients as human beings and dared to take the risk of infection to treat Honkai patients. So even though what the Lord said about 'human evolution' is a little difficult to understand, I am willing to believe it - even though the Jackal is a calf." "Are you the one who was rescued?" Liu Bai looked at Natasha's expression with some surprise. Come to think of it, it can't be that it was Gray Snake who picked up Natasha in this world, right? Then Mobius is probably in his forties or even fifties now. "Well... that was a long time ago. Something happened to my family, and then the Honkai infected my hometown. Anyway, I was displaced and encountered a lot of bad things. When I was about to die, I met the Lord. And I am probably the only one who recovered? Even if the Lord was just collecting data at the time, she did her best." Natasha looked like she didn't want to mention it. "Forget it, anyway, your speculation is quite valuable. I'll tell Gray Snake to go find trouble with Ye Lan tomorrow. Can you go with Gui Naifen?"
Chapter 53: Please grit your teeth!
Chapter 53 Please grit your teeth! "Welcome to the Liyue Chamber of Commerce... Oh, it's you, you are the one..." Standing at the door was Kiana again. Kiana obviously recognized Liu Bai. Kiana recognized me the last time I came, and she could recognize me again this time. It seems that I have been remembered. but…… "Um...you are the one...wait a moment, I will definitely remember it." The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Kiana frowned and began to think hard. "Let me make it clear first! I definitely haven't forgotten your name! I just can't remember it for the moment!"
"My name is Liu Bai, and she is my friend, Gui Naifen... Although we have met more than once, we have not yet introduced our names, Miss Kiana." Liu Bai gave warm reminders from the side. "Ah? Never exchanged names? No - then how do you know my name?" Kiana showed a silly expression. "Ye Lan complained to me about it." "Oh... that's right..." Kiana scratched her head. "Well, anyway, my name is Kiana Kaslana. Why are you two so aggressive this time?" "We're here to mess things up." "what?" Kiana was stunned for a moment. After all, she was a receptionist and doorman, right? Are you talking about ruining the show in front of me? "Destroy Ye Lan's place." Kiana was stunned again when she heard this, then she decisively closed her eyes and rested. Oh, she was so scared, she thought he was here to cause trouble, but it turned out he was here to beat Ye Lan. Kiana didn't say "Please come in, Taijun" because she was "He's in the office on the third floor." When Liu Bai passed by, Kiana was afraid that Liu Bai wouldn't be able to find him. "If you can't fight, just shout for help and I'll call the police and an ambulance for you." Well, although Kiana really wants to see Ye Lan get beaten, she has to admit that Ye Lan is still quite capable. Can this be defeated... ---- "Oh no, oh no, the creditor is here to find us." Ye Lan had noticed Liu Bai and Gui Naifen walking in through the surveillance camera. It's time to run away. As the saying goes, the first effort is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted. Given my current situation of being in the wrong, if I confront others, even if I don't get beaten up, I will at least get scolded. Thinking of this, Ye Lan went out immediately. Two minutes later, a square-faced man who looked successful in his career returned to the office and sat upright. According to the current flow of people in the Chamber of Commerce, it should take them another two minutes to come up... The "man" counted down silently in his heart.
boom--! "Boss, isn't it Ye Lan?" Gui Naifen was also puzzled when she saw the middle-aged man with a look of surprise behind the desk. "Who are you? What do you want from Lord Ye Lan? Security! Security!" "Xiao Guizi, beat him up." "what?" "You have to make him shut up first, otherwise don't you think it will be troublesome?" "Uh, it seems so?" "..." The middle-aged man who was shouting for security fell silent upon hearing this. "Everyone, there's no need to take action, right? Are you here to see Master Ye Lan? We can sit down and talk." Gui Naifen, who had just rolled up her sleeves, hesitated again after hearing this. By the way, since Gui Naifen's clothes from yesterday were not dry yet, she borrowed a set of Natasha's clothes. Although it fits well, the black stockings make it look a bit... mediocre. "Don't listen. Keep beating him. He's stalling for time. He might have secretly pressed some button under the table. He's the only one who saw our faces. Give him a concussion first." “…Isn’t that too bad?” "Yeah, yeah, that's not so good." The middle-aged man also nodded repeatedly. "...It doesn't seem to be a good idea." Liu Bai thought for a moment and nodded, "Then let's kidnap him. Since he knows Ye Lan's whereabouts, let's kidnap him and interrogate him slowly." "Um, boss, this is kidnapping, right?" "This is just an invitation - as long as he cooperates it's not kidnapping. If he resists, it means he has something to hide. Beat him up and give him a concussion before taking him away." "Don't go too far, kid!" A female voice full of dissatisfaction came from the middle-aged man's throat. "Eh! Eh eh eh??" Gui Naifen was shocked by the man's voice change. "You lost." Liu Bai looked at the middle-aged man calmly... no, Ye Lan. "Are you betting that I can't help it?" Ye Lan pulled off the hood. "I knew you were here a long time ago - isn't Kiana still guarding the door?" Liu Bai gave a reason that was completely in Ye Lan's blind spot.
It's not a character analysis, nor is it something that was discovered in advance, there's just a "Kiana". "That girl knows nothing about me. She's still lying in bed when I'm at work. Tsk, you're lucky." Ye Lan was shocked. She didn't expect that she would be exposed in this aspect. "Will you leave Kiana alone and run away?" Liu Bai denied his luck and looked at Ye Lan, "World Serpent, Destiny, Liyue Chamber of Commerce... No, strictly speaking, it's you, Ye Lan. Of these three parties, World Serpent is a local force, Destiny is following the crash of the aircraft, and what about you? You must have arrived a long time ago, right? Before I fell, the only reason that could bring you here was..." "Kiana." Ye Lan finished saying this for Liu Bai.
