"A bad woman is just a bad woman, what's there to explain? Brother Lu Ze, this bad woman is too much. She attacked me with a big move as soon as we met!"
Xilin was very vengeful, but like a pufferfish, her anger flared up quickly and subsided just as fast.
"Alright, little Xilin. This big sister is different from the big sister you met before. The big sister who hit you is called Fu Hua, and this big sister is called Hua. They are different people. So, this person isn't a bad woman."
Since Hua had no memories of the future, she was bewildered by Lu Ze's words. Fu Hua, who was that? Why was she only one character different from herself? Why did it feel like something was off, but she couldn't pinpoint it?
Despite her confusion, she didn't speak, secretly planning to build a good relationship with this child in the future. She couldn't possibly be called a bad woman every day, could she?
"Okay Ծ‸Ծ."
Xilin was a little disappointed, as this woman looked too much like the one in her memory. She had wanted to get revenge.
Bronya frowned as she saw so many people. She couldn't help but feel that the number of competitors had inexplicably increased. Why had people been showing up constantly these past few days?
After the two sides had a brief introduction, Elysia looked at Bronya with some surprise. So this beautiful girl was the Bronya that Mei had mentioned.
Why wasn't Kiana here? Elysia was a little disappointed, as she was more interested in meeting Kiana, the girl that Mei thought about constantly. She was truly curious about her.
Because there were too many people, and the kitchen was already occupied, Welt and Lu Ze went to help Wendy with the cooking. As a chef, Welt was quite capable, and the food he made was top-notch.
Half a day passed in a flash, and it was soon evening. Lu Ze looked at the photos on the wall and tidied up a bit.
Why not continue to put these photos on the wall? After all, most of the photos on the wall were memories of the past, and of people he missed. But now, there was no need to miss them anymore.
After all, the people were right beside him, so was it still necessary?
However, this large family was still missing a few people. After all, Rita, Greatsword, Mei, Kiana, and others had not arrived yet. So, it wasn't necessary to take down those photos just yet.
Speaking of Rita, Lu Ze felt a pang of nostalgia for the coffee she brewed. Although he had only drunk it once or twice, the taste was truly excellent. Perhaps it was due to the ingredients.
As he thought, his eyelids grew heavier, and he soon fell asleep.
Lu Ze's steady breathing made someone lurking in the darkness somewhat excited.
"Little lab rat, I didn't expect you to fall into my hands again, did I? This is my specially concocted aphrodisiac. You won't be able to wake up for at least a night. During this time, I can do whatever I want, and you won't be able to stop me."
Mobius, dragging her serpentine tail, slowly emerged from the darkness, holding something akin to an incense burner. She had been in this room for a long time, as snakes were adept at hiding.
"I say, is it really okay for you to do this? I saw everything quite clearly."
The great inventor, Welt, sat silently on the windowsill. The moonlight in the darkness shone upon her, lending her an aura of mystery.
"Oh? I didn't expect there to be another guest tonight besides myself. I truly didn't anticipate this! I was careless. However, with just you, you won't be able to stop me, even if I've lost half my strength, I can still..."
Before Mobius could finish, someone pushed the door open. Their right hand tightly gripped the knife at their waist, and an aura of ice immediately permeated the entire room.
"What if you include me? If you include me, your chances of winning are probably not great. With me here, you won't be able to move him an inch tonight."
Sakura quietly looked at the person before her. She couldn't allow someone she cared about to become a companion's experiment. After all, she knew Mobius's personality.
If one wasn't careful, one might be dissected and studied. Her thirst for truth was truly immense.
"I really didn't expect this! You two would join forces to stop me? May I ask when I was exposed? I remember when I left, none of you seemed to pay any attention to me. However, do you really think I'm alone?"
Although somewhat confused, Mobius still smiled. When it came to helpers, she had people too.
She clapped her hands, and from the darkness of another room, another person emerged. Apônia quietly observed the entire scene.
"I say, why are you standing with Mobius? From what I remember, you weren't like this, were you?"
Welt looked at the person who appeared with some surprise. After all, Apônia never easily participated in any disputes. So, how could she be here?
"I just want to make amends for something. Besides... like all of you, you all like Lu Ze, don't you? I've seen it for a long time. Even others. You are all attracted by his aura, and have repeatedly tried to show yourselves. I've seen it all. Can't I compete too?"
The four pairs of eyes met, and neither side could make a move. At this moment, someone was urgently needed to break the stalemate. As long as someone appeared to disrupt the balance, the situation could be resolved.
"I say, what are you all doing gathered in Lu Ze's room in the middle of the night? Making a ruckus! Although I'm from the future, I still have some standing here."
Bronya's voice echoed in the room. On the corridor, several people had appeared at some point, Wendy, Xilin, and even others.
You might think they were all asleep, but in reality, none of them were. They all had their own little thoughts. With the competition increasing day by day, how could they possibly fall asleep easily?
"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night."
Mobius didn't know what to say. This had long since spiraled beyond her control. It was too exaggerated, wasn't it?
She distinctly remembered placing aphrodisiacs in the corner of every room. How could they all be awake? It couldn't be that the drug had failed, could it? After all, even Honkai beasts couldn't withstand it, let alone humans.
"Are you wondering why your drug didn't work? I've been watching you from the shadows all along. After all, how could I leave such a dangerous person unchecked?"
Seele, with her red eyes, held a scythe and a bag. She threw the bag forward, revealing a pile of processed aphrodisiacs.
This night was going to be a bit troublesome.
