"I feel like the atmosphere between you two is really strange."
Putting down the chopsticks in her hand, Bianka looked at Rita with a strange expression.
"What do you mean?"
Rita asked calmly.
"In every way."
"It's all good, Lady Bianka."
Rita defended herself calmly.
"Then I must have been mistaken."
Bianka thought for a moment and nodded.
"By the way, Lady Bianka, do you remember where I put my 17th birthday present?"
To prevent Bianka from regaining her sanity, Rita took the initiative to change the subject. After all, Bianka's brain is single-threaded, and it's too difficult for her to think about two things at once.
This topic wasn't random; Rita really cared about the ivory figure Tian Shi had made for her back then.
"That figure?"
Bianka was a little startled and her attention was diverted.
"The figure is still on the Caledonia, and the captain is taking care of it. If you want it, Rita, I can find the time to get it back."
"That would be great if you could."
Rita smiled. In any case, it was a gift from Tian Shi to her, and a birthday gift at that.
It was better for her to keep such a commemorative object in her own hands.
"Also, Mr. Tian, are you done with your work?"
Rita re-centered the topic on Tian Shi.
"Did you reach an agreement with the newborn Herrscher?"
"It's settled."
As he said this, Tian Shi showed some sadness, but fortunately, Rita and the others couldn't see his expression.
"I decided to let her come to Sky City."
"Are you crazy?"
In a way, this behavior is like placing a bomb next to the stove.
"They will meet sooner or later, so it can't be avoided."
Tian Shi was quite optimistic.
"It's better to prepare subtly than to explode suddenly when the time comes, right?"
"Since you know what's going on, I'm also relieved."
Although she said she was relieved, Rita still looked worried.
"But then again, can I have your head? If I can't have your head, your heart will do."
"Huh?"
Tian Shi was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Rita meant.
"I'm a ghost. I haven't even figured out how to kill myself again, so forget about splitting me up."
Tian Shi complained.
What on earth is this woman thinking?
"Speaking of which, if Mr. Tian were to be divided, what would Lady Bianka want?"
Rita completely ignored Tian Shi's complaints and continued with the topic, which made his hair stand on end.
"Huh? Divided?"
This question, obviously, startled a calm girl like Bianka.
"Let's stop talking about that yandere topic!"
Tian Shi interrupted forcefully. This topic is so terrifying!
"Well, I'm not a yandere, after all. It's just... well, a little revenge."
Rita showed a playful smile on her face. It was completely impossible to tell that a maid had almost sent herself to her death half an hour ago.
"Please forgive me, Mr. Tian."
"Then can I take revenge and hit you back?"
Tian Shi asked in a low voice. He had realized.
He had already realized the essence of Rita's ability to be strong on the outside and weak on the inside.
"Huh?"
Rita blushed slightly.
Although being proactive is good, being passive... is also acceptable.
However, before she could reply, Bianka's untimely voice was heard.
"Hmm? Did you two have a fight?"
"No."
Lady Bianka, when will your brain start to clear up?
Now that I think about it, the original intention of coming here this time was actually to be Bianka's helper, right?
How did it inexplicably become their date?
Well, objectively speaking, you can only say they are compatible.
Although Tian Shi usually complains about other people's wild ideas, he himself is quite wild.
Rita is the type of person who can always pick up the conversation at any moment.
Even if the topic has gone cold, she can pick it up as long as Rita is willing, so they practically never run out of things to talk about when they get together.
He truly deserves to be her Angel.
Rita was sighing for Bianka, and Tian Shi was also sighing about the relationship.
"I always feel like there's a thick barrier between you two."
Bianka once again felt the flat atmosphere and couldn't help but complain.
"I wish it was just us."
Rita sighed. It would be strange if there were no barriers between you, a contestant who hasn't even entered the race yet, and us.
It's okay if you can't find the track, but you've stepped on the starting line and walked away several times!
It was the first time Rita felt extremely tired of Bianka.
It's not that she's trying to let her best friend down, God bless her.
She has worked hard to take care of Bianka, but it's not working.
What else can she do? I can't carry her with me, I really can't.
It wasn't possible for her to give Bianka bite after bite of food, right? If she did, what would she eat herself?
"Rita, here's the meat, it's ready."
Bianka handed the barbecued meat skewers to Rita, unaware of what she was thinking.
"..."
Rita's eyes twitched as she looked at the barbecue.
"I'm full, Lady Bianka, please help yourself."
I've decided that when I work with Tian Shi in the future, I'll send Bianka to do the barbecuing.
It would be even better if a world-famous painting could be made like "Ms. Bianka doing barbecue" or something.
Rita's thoughts:
"Who is this?"
"This is Miss Rita."
"Who is this man?"
"Lord Tian."
"What are they doing?"
"Exercising in bed."
"What about Lady Bianka?"
"Bianka is doing the barbecue."
Perfect!
.............
The next day
Early in the morning, Senti flew to Sky City, but then Tian Shi took her to a clothing store.
"Ah... Master Tian, is it really that troublesome?"
Senti looked at her T-shirt with a disgusted expression.
"Dress up so that Otto won't find you."
Tian Shi said while dressing Senti.
He's now like a master of time management: he's still seeing Rita and Bianka doing a barbecue late at night, and in the morning, he has to take Senti to Sky City and dress her up.
Fortunately, Tian Shi isn't completely ignorant of this.
Although he had never eaten pork, he had seen others eat it. He had taken care of three girls, so even if he didn't master any advanced skills, he could still help Senti get ready.
For example, changing her hairstyle, picking out clothes, etc.
"Otto, that guy, he definitely wouldn't dare to come after I beat him up."
Senti didn't care.
"Unless he still wants to feel the feeling of having his head smashed."
"He wouldn't be called Otto if he was that easy to get rid of."
Tian Shi tapped Senti's head.
"Anyway, it's better to be prepared. How do you like this outfit?"
Senti's original long, flowing hair was tied up by Tian Shi, and he changed her into a slightly trendy casual outfit and put a baseball cap on her.
At first glance, she looks like a normal, fashionable girl, and most of the craziness on her body has disappeared.
To a certain extent, most of the cuteness has also disappeared. But in this case, cuteness doesn't matter.
"As long as it's Master Tian, I like everything you dress me in!"
As soon as she opened her mouth, that stupid look mixed with craziness came back. This response didn't exceed Tian Shi's expectations at all.
However, in his opinion, this outfit doesn't look ugly.
Tian Shi believes his aesthetic sense is still normal.
"Okay, show me your 'Big Sister Aura' and let's go."
In fact, this outfit is mainly used to guard against the Immortal Blades members.
After all, Fu Hua is quite famous in Schicksal.
As a member of the Schicksal elite, the Immortal Blades are pretty much recognized by everyone, such as a certain abandoned Alvirt.
Although Senti can change other people's consciousness, it's forbidden to use it indiscriminately, so there's still a chance of her being discovered without her knowledge.
Of course, there's no need to tell Senti about this slightly complicated matter, to keep her from causing more trouble.
But then again, the direct superiors of these people are all the same, and this behavior is just to avoid complications.
"Okay! You just wait! I won't let you down, Master Tian!" Senti said excitedly.
To a certain extent, I feel more at ease if you don't come.
Tian Shi sighed secretly, then led Senti to bypass several routine Immortal Blades patrol points and entered the Shencheng Pharmaceutical office building through the back door.
"Hey! Isn't this dude... dude...?"
"Grey Serpent."
Grey Serpent, who greeted him, briefly introduced himself.
Just this one sentence made Grey Serpent understand the difference between this Herrscher of Sentience and the original "Master Fu Hua."
In the few memories he had left, Master Fu Hua never spoke in such a peculiar tone. Such a lively tone... it's quite suitable for communicating with Miss Kiana, although Kiana has become very serious most of the time now.
"Yes, yes, Grey Serpent, I remember now. I didn't expect you to be so alive and kicking. Have you eaten?"
Senti gave Grey Serpent a familiar pat on the shoulder.
"That old woman, Mobius, isn't here. If you have any problems, come to me. I'll protect you."
"Thank you, Miss Fu Hua."
The Herrscher in front of him has inherited all of Master Fu Hua's emotions and memories. Could it be that the name "old woman" is what Master Fu Hua uses to call her master in her heart?
Grey Serpent felt as if he had discovered an incredible secret. Grey Serpent silently classified this secret as "rotten in the stomach."
He doesn't care about the affairs of the big shots.
In a way, Grey Serpent has learned how to survive.
However, Senti beside him isn't such a wise person.
"The truth is that following that old woman, Mobius, is a dead end. You're worse off than..."
"Shut up."
Unable to bear it any longer, Tian Shi dragged the unfortunate child away.
It was unbelievable that she could commit such an act of "poaching" people.
"Don't worry! I'll protect you from now on!"
While being dragged away, Senti didn't forget to emphasize this matter once more.
"But, we, World Serpent, should be considered a legitimate organization, right?"
Looking at Senti being dragged through the air, Grey Serpent sighed silently.
Let's not make the members of World Serpent look like street bullies collecting money for protection.
But why does it feel like there are fewer and fewer serious people in World Serpent?
Grey Serpent felt inexplicably sad... he might as well just let other Grey Serpents do everything.
Not to mention whether they're competent or not, at least they can maintain the dignity of World Serpent as a hidden boss.
Without mentioning Grey Serpent, Tian Shi had already dragged the unfortunate child Senti to the main control room of Shencheng Medical.
"Hello! Long time no see, little sister Mei~!"
Senti happily greeted Mei, who was operating the computer, accompanied by Jackal.
"..."
MEI turned to look at the source of the sound and silently pushed up her glasses.
"Even though we were prepared, this situation is still shocking."
MEI muttered softly.
Older sister Fu Hua actually used such a lively expression to greet someone, which really made people who knew her want to rub their eyes.
Since she wore glasses, she pushed them up.
"Huh? MEI, what are you talking about?"
Senti watched MEI's reaction with dissatisfaction.
"Don't you have anything to say to your older sister?"
"Hmm... that is what I said... how about we draw some blood from you first?"
MEI maintained her icy expression and pulled out a large-sized syringe from under the table, which was as big as an adult's forearm.
"Huh?"
Senti never expected that MEI's first sentence would be this.
"Um... reunion after a long time... and you want to perform, a blood draw?"
Facing MEI's icy face and the oversized syringe, Senti's tone suddenly became timid.
"Shouldn't we be talking about something more intimate?"
"I'm just worried if Otto has done anything to your body, older sister, so I need to draw some blood for a test."
MEI's expression remained unchanged, as if she was stating the truth of the world.
Are you kidding me? It's a rare reason to get a Herrscher's blood.
Wouldn't she be unworthy of her status if she didn't get some blood? As for this syringe... well, it was made right at this moment.
"Master Tian, you be the judge! Isn't this syringe too much? Who needs a syringe like this to draw blood? Am I a whale or something?"
Although she was deeply disgusted by MEI's behavior, Senti sincerely asked Tian Shi to come and judge the matter.
"I'm very skilled... after all, Dr. Mobius is more competent in biology... it's only logical to draw a little more, isn't it?"
"That doesn't make sense! Didn't you and that Mobius perform the super transformation surgery together? How is it possible that a test like this would fail?!"
"Fu Hua, I think you should really get a blood test."
Tian Shi suddenly said.
"Huh? Master Tian, you too...!"
"Don't look at me like that. It's just... well, I sensed wisdom and rationality in what you just said, so I thought it would be better to analyze it."
Senti actually refuted MEI with reason and evidence? What a joke! Give me back my Senti who doesn't look so smart at first glance!
