"Stupid and unhappy, of course, I am unhappy." Ryan passed by with an expressionless face, which made Mebius stunned for a moment, and then he subconsciously retorted.
"You are the stupid one!"
The people on the tarmac separated, some in pairs, some left alone, and of course there were also some people chasing and playing.
All these scenes were seen by the people on the tower, at least it made Edwin's mouth twitch.
"Are Dr. Ryan and Dr. Mebius really not a couple? This scene reminds me of my youth when I was in junior high school. There was a girl in my class who always bullied me. Later I found out..."
"Stop, stop, stop. Branch Chief, you've told me your love story ten times. I can almost recite the rest of it by heart." Himiko interrupted quickly, pinching her neck and pretending to speak in a low voice: "Then you understood, and then you married her and had three children."
"Yeah, so sooner or later enemies will come together. If you don't believe me, let's make a bet. Oh, I almost forgot that you have already lost all your salary this month."
Himiko gritted her teeth. She had fought for several days at the risk of her life, but in the end, all the pleasure was gone after just a moment.
"Branch chief, please don't rub salt into my wounds. Our application for a secondment was just rejected on the grounds of insufficient authority."
"As expected. Sometimes I really don't understand what these talented senior executives are thinking." Edwin took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
He had taken advantage of having a superhuman subordinate. His flexibility and mobility were simply unparalleled. He only needed to spend some gasoline to send him to his destination, and with some people to provide cover, ordinary collapses could be resolved. However—
Edwin glanced at the huge electronic screen, on which sparse red dots flickered, and endless collapses occurred one after another.
"Maybe he knows too much." Himiko said something fair. She remembered the phone call she received at Qianyu Academy. "That Ryan was never a simple warrior."
"I know, but how could a simple reckless man get together with Mobius? How long does the headquarters estimate before the third collapse?"
"Between half a month and three months, it's okay. Miss Alicia will also be assigned to the Far East, and Ryan won't be away too far."
"Where is he going next?"
Himiko did not answer immediately, but zoomed out the map and clicked somewhere next to the neon sign.
"He's going to Canghai City."
Chapter 40: Mebius wants to take medicine
"What? You're going to Canghai City?"
Almost at the same time, Mebius's slightly lazy voice sounded, causing people at the surrounding tables to look at her sideways. She was not embarrassed, but just looked at those people coldly.
After a few seconds, no one dared to look at her, and they all moved away.
Humph.
Mobius then sat down, crossed his legs, and folded his arms: "Why do you want to go there? If you want to relax, I recommend going to Switzerland, where there are special sanatoriums."
"You're not my boss, why do you care where I go?" Ryan drank a mouthful of soup and tapped the table lightly: "Don't forget, this meal is still my treat. You poor bastard, how can you deserve to be followed by others?"
you......
Mebius felt that his self-control was not enough again. He didn't know why, but it was always like this when he was with this man. However, he couldn't refute it, so he picked up a meatball with a fork and put it into his mouth.
The juice from the meatballs leaked out from the side of the little mouth, and soon a nimble tongue licked it clean. Mebius supported his head and spoke in a long tone.
"You, don't want to stay with me?"
A bit of laziness and a bit of charm made Ryan pause with the chopsticks in his hand, but he quickly returned to normal.
He wiped his mouth, looked at the gorgeous but cold face in front of him, thought for a while and then said: "Canghai City may be the center of the third collapse, I have to go and take a look."
Ok?
Mebius had thought of several excuses for Ryan, but he didn't expect his words to still be unexpected. He subconsciously stretched his neck, with the tip of his nose only an inch away from Ryan's face.
"How do you know? The Fire Moths have only marked out a rough area, and the chances of the collapse are very high in places where few people go."
Because I just know.
Ryan thought to himself, of course he is not sure. He has been here for nearly twenty years, and his butterfly wings are already flapping like crazy. Who knows if there will be any changes.
"Intuition, a warrior's intuition."
"It's inexplicable, what intuition, it's not scientific at all." Mobius was disappointed. She thought Ryan was going to tell her that he could accurately locate the Honkai, so she retracted her neck and gently swung her black silk legs. "Well, even if your intuition is accurate, why did you go to provoke the Third Herrscher? Shouldn't ordinary people run away from it?"
Ryan took a bite of rice and said without raising his head, "Don't you have a guess about the reason?"
As expected, Mebius' eyes twitched and he stretched his head over for the second time, his face full of excitement.
"You can really use those monsters to evolve. I was wondering why you are everywhere..."
"Stop, you are just guessing. I didn't say anything. Besides, you have studied my body tissue and there is nothing abnormal."
"It is precisely because of this unknown that people can't stop. If you are really evolving--"
"What can you do about it?" Ryan said the rest of the words for her, picked up his coffee, and looked at the other person leisurely.
The excitement that had just arisen was quickly replaced by reluctance, and even a rare bit of dejection.
That's right, Mebius couldn't do anything. She couldn't kidnap Ryan, nor could she use this speculation to plan anything. She didn't have much power in the Fire Moth.
If they take further action based on her speculation, not to mention the forces behind Ryan, the Far East branch alone will rebel.
"Hey, I just like the way you grit your teeth and feel helpless." Ryan shrugged. He was not so wary of Mebius now, otherwise he would not reveal any news at all. Instead, he would have a kind of evil interest of fishing.
As for why, he didn't know, but he felt very happy anyway.
"So let's work together."
Mebius, who was feeling depressed, suddenly heard these words. He was in disbelief and felt resentful in his heart.
This guy really knows how to mess with people's mentality. Every time he wants to explode, he has to hold it back. Fortunately, Mebius is known for his rationality, so he took a deep breath.
"Tell me, how do we cooperate?"
"You can keep guessing, and I won't avoid you. Don't look at me with such an inexplicable look. The house-playing in Changkong City will soon be over. I'll just pat my butt and leave. What can you do to me?"
Mobius really couldn't do anything to him. The Fusion Warrior Plan had just started, and she had to go back to her own nest to study it carefully. Until now, she still doubted whether the Third Herrscher mentioned by Ryan was an excuse.
But it doesn't matter whether it is or not. The other party is not a subordinate and can go wherever he wants.
"Keep talking."
"If you think this is an evolution, you can choose to walk with me and become my helper. When the time is right, I will provide you with some ideas." Ryan's gray eyes were deep, as if he was a superior overlooking all living beings.
Of course, he hasn't even figured out what destiny is, let alone sharing it. He just wants to take advantage of Mebius's desire to trick him.
As the saying goes, greed can blind one's mind. The more you desire something, the easier it is to be fooled. This goes beyond IQ.
Mebius was indeed troubled, and his usually cold face wrinkled into a ball: "This is unfair, don't you have the full control?"
"Listen, in our relationship, I have the full control." Ryan stood up from the table and turned around calmly, "If you don't agree, forget it. I can go find Mei. Her authority will soon surpass yours."
Ryan took a decisive step forward, then felt his sleeve being grabbed. He turned around and smiled.
Mebius's face was complicated, with reluctance, anger, desire, and a little bit of grievance that had never appeared before. She had no choice in this deal, but all the emotions accumulated in her heart made her depressed.
Hey, I used the opponent's force to my advantage and completely broke her defense.
For some reason, Ryan had this thought: to deal with Mebius, it would be useless to be a hero saving the beauty or to be a bootlicker. He just had to grasp her desire.
On the one hand, it made her helpless, but on the other hand, it could indeed provide help, and with some special features, it accurately stabbed Mebius' heart.
Ryan didn't know whether this was ambiguous or not, but it was definitely entangled and couldn't be untangled. He also didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
"Isn't it enough that I agreed?" Mebius was really depressed. She had learned from Alicia and used the seduction method, but this bastard just wouldn't listen, leaving her helpless.
Mobius even felt that this guy was more troublesome than Alicia. At least she could barely deal with the latter, but Ryan was different.
Who is whose assistant?
"It's a wise decision. I knew Dr. Mebius wouldn't let us down." Ryan smiled, but he was secretly happy in his heart. He finally got his revenge for being treated like a slave and working with loans.
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me, what do you want to do?" Mebius turned his head away, revealing his white neck, and gave up the idea of using some means to bring Ryan back to Mu Continent.
"Please prepare these things for me and send them to Canghai City. I have read your thesis and you are very insightful in engineering and materials science." Ryan smiled and handed over a note.
He can speak human language.
For some reason, Mobius felt better. He took the note and read it subconsciously: "Super-pressure alloy spear, polymer energy-blocking armor, are you preparing weapons to deal with the Third Herrscher?"
"Guess what." Ryan narrowed his eyes and smiled gently.
His towering chest rose and fell rapidly again. Mebius wanted to say something vulgar, but he expected an even more unpleasant counterattack, so he had to lower his tone.
"I'll prepare the things for you myself, but where's the reward?"
"Guess again."
Still with that mysterious look, Mobius' brain was working at full speed, but he had no answer. He looked around and found that there was no one in the cafeteria. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Believe it or not, I will do something to kill you."
She bent down, took off her short-heeled leather shoes and threw them over, but Ryan caught them easily.
He played with the little black leather shoes and glanced at Mebius's small right foot, which was wrapped in stockings and was slender enough to be held in the hand, like a work of art.
"You can't bear to do it. Besides, I'm also a PhD in materials science. You can't hide it from me."
"So sometimes I would rather you were a reckless man." Mebius stepped barefoot on the floor, breathing heavily, squinting his eyes, giving people a sense of charm.
"Then I just let you play with me, right? Actually, I forgot to say something. You look very beautiful today. Although I was forced, you have torn off all the masks these days and exposed your true self. It also makes me feel relieved, Mebius, you still have a burning humanity."
Ryan said this without thinking, but it came from his heart. If it was the memory of Mebius from 50,000 years later, he would not have any interaction with him.
Mebius caught the flash of emotion and was just thinking, "Could this guy know me?" when he saw Ryan lower his head and put on his shoes.
The man's hand brushed across her stockings, bringing a slight tingling sensation. He seemed to deliberately fiddle with her ankle, causing her to twist subconsciously. This natural feeling was the most seductive.
But Ryan did not take it further. He took his hand back and nodded gently like a gentleman: "I wish us a pleasant cooperation. Goodbye."
Mebius didn't say anything. The strange feeling just now made her a little dazed. It was not like her usual deliberate acting. She really had a wonderful feeling just now.
Are you reluctant to let him go? Are you worried that he will never come back?
Many emotions intertwined with each other, and when she came to her senses, the man in front of her had disappeared, and the closed automatic door blocked his back. At that moment, Mebius even had the urge to stand up and hold on to the table.
But after a moment, she sat back down again and took out the communicator: "Blanca, help me find some mental medicine."
"Doctor, are you sick?"
"No, I just..." Mebius supported his head, looked at the automatic door that was completely closed, and muttered to himself.
"I'm just a little weird."
