Chapter 216 When Disaster Strikes
Chapter 216 When Disaster Strikes
"Huh? Is the cutting board really that bad quality?"
Mei, coming to her senses, looked at the cutting board that had been split in two, her face full of confusion.
She used it quite often, so why did it suddenly stop working?
"Mei, what's wrong?"
Hearing the sounds from the kitchen, Kiana came over to show her concern.
"It's nothing! It's just that the cutting board is broken. Maybe the one Himeko bought is of poor quality..."
With that, Raiden Mei threw the broken cutting board into the trash can with a look of disgust.
"Oh, I see."
Kiana, all smiles, put her arm around Mei's.
"Stop tidying up, come listen to March 7th's story! You have no idea how interesting their adventures in Belenbogo are!"
"I've said it so many times, we're going to Belleburg, Belleburg!"
When facing Kiana, Raiden Mei chose to force a smile.
“Great, I’ve been wanting to hear about Sora-kun’s past too.”
An unpleasant sound came from the living room, making Raiden Mei increasingly annoyed. That wicked pink-haired girl had won over her best friend Kiana with just a story; what if Bronya, who claimed to be there to gather information, was also deceived?
As Mei entered the living room, she tried her best to hide her disgust, but it was difficult to completely conceal it, because March Seven, who had once seduced Sora, was shamelessly sitting next to Sora's friend, Dan Heng.
"Uncle Yang led me, Qiong, and the mastermind to search half of Luofu, and finally caught the female wanted criminal at the port! I told Qiong then not to be fooled by the big sister, but Qiong forgot about it as soon as he turned around!"
"hehe."
Mei chuckled coldly. This scheming bitch was incredibly good at feigning innocence and cuteness. If Mei hadn't seen through her true nature long ago, she probably would have been fooled too! Even her storytelling now was part of this woman's plan.
What kind of person would flaunt her past relationship with Sora in front of her? That person is definitely someone who has feelings for Sora. March Seven is declaring war on her!
In the narrative woven by March 7th, she is portrayed as a wicked woman who takes advantage of a vulnerability and steals someone else's love. She wants to use stories to make everyone believe that "Sora and March 7th are very close," so that she can then rightfully drive her away and have Sora all to herself...
Sizzle sizzle—
"Mei-neechan?"
Bronya and Danheng quickly noticed Raiden Mei's strange behavior on Sunday. A static-filled low-pressure atmosphere inexplicably arose in the seemingly calm living room, radiating outwards from Raiden Mei as the core.
"—Then one day, the three of us took on a job identifying bad guys. Uncle Yang saw a blond man and immediately said he might be a big villain! But it turned out the man was just an ordinary businessman, so even Uncle Yang can make mistakes..."
But in the midst of talking about March 7th, he was completely oblivious to Raiden Mei's continued animated and animated speech.
"March, aren't you tired after talking for so long? It's so late, go and rest."
Danheng patted March 7 on the shoulder, signaling her to stop there.
"what?"
March 7th didn't realize that the story was only at this stage.
March's small eyes revealed a great deal of confusion.
"Danheng, I'm in great spirits! I could totally have that pillow fight we used to have back then!"
"Pillow fight...with Sora?"
Raiden Mei's face darkened even more: She had never done that!
"That's fine, March!"
The story is forced to stop because of Danheng's meddling, and Raiden Mei, who has no interest in cleaning up the dishes, goes to bed early.
“Qiong…”
But tonight is a sleepless night, perhaps because she went to bed too early. Tonight, she can only keep her eyes wide open in the dark; the moment she closes them, her mind is filled with the fear of "Qiong's sudden departure."
Overly sentimental Mei's mind was uncontrollably filled with the scene of Sora resolutely leaving without looking back.
Of course, it wouldn't be entirely accurate to say that it was just fear. In fact, there was also a purple figure inside Mei's head.
"Coward, are you afraid our servant will be kidnapped?"
"who are you?"
"I am you!"
"Are you a Herrscher?"
Mei, lost in her own world, finally realized that Raiden scoffed at her.
"Are you really that insecure? You couldn't sleep all night because of a few stories? Being a coward is one thing, but what about taking action? Being afraid yet unwilling to act... how come I'm cut from the same cloth as you? It's shameful!"
At this point, Lei Lu offered her suggestion.
"If you can't bring yourself to do it, give yourself to me! I'll do it!"
"No! No, you can't! Get out of my head!"
------------
"We've finally arrived. This is where Aying works..."
"It's not easy!"
As dusk approached the world bubble, Qiong and Bai E finally arrived at the place where Lei Films worked. They both expressed their amazement at the journey—a trip that normally takes half an hour by car had taken them half a day.
However, even though they had arrived at their destination, Qiong was still not feeling well.
Looking at the magnificent research institute before her, and then at Xi'er following closely behind her, Qiong felt a chill run down her spine.
It's all Hei-hi's fault, you wicked Hei-hi!
Let's take a look at the research institute in front of us.
"The First Design Bureau of Destiny, the Innovative Technology Demonstration Base... the World Snake Research Institute?"
World Snake Research Institute, that name...
"Bai'er, who's in charge here?"
"Two people, one is Professor Mei, a biologist who is a bit eccentric and has a bad reputation."
Qiong sensed that Bai E's expression was somewhat helpless.
"The other one is Miss Violet, the inventor who's always messing around with the equipment. My Ah Ying is here either helping Professor Mei with her research or assisting Miss Violet in turning her weird ideas into reality... It's only because Mr. Bio is willing to support this research institute, otherwise... Never mind, let's go inside and find Ah Ying."
"Well, let's go."
Trusting Bai E and distrusting the two scientists, Qiong entered the research institute.
Buzz——————
Qiong: ? ? ?
I heard an alarm as soon as I entered the door? Is a disaster about to strike?
"Danheng, don't be nervous."
After greeting the gatekeeper, Bai E continued walking inside without a care in the world.
"Miss Violet's experiment must have gone wrong again; that's the norm here."
"Really?"
Qiong followed Bai E deeper into the research institute, still somewhat skeptical. Passing a room, they saw a group of people in white lab coats frantically moving among a pile of instruments…
"Space reading anomaly!"
"Weather forecast is abnormal!"
"Abnormal radio signal!"
Qiong: ...
Something feels off.
"Bai E, is this a normal state?"
No, I've never seen it before.
"Um, I have a bad feeling..."
For some reason, Qiong had a feeling that she was in big trouble.

I'm feeling unwell today, so I'll write less... Also, some people have told me they hope I can finish this "World Bath" part as soon as possible. I've thought about it and decided to speed things up, to speed things up as much as possible!
