"Big Qiuqiu is sick, Second Qiuqiu, go see~ Third Qiuqiu, buy medicine, Fourth Qiuqiu, wait~ Fifth Qiuqiu, eh!!!"

Hu Tao hummed a little tune and strolled leisurely back to the store from the street. The police officer she knew introduced two more clients to her today.

She said that the profession of police really needs the support of their church, and Hu Tao felt more and more that her decision to make friends with the police officers was a wise one.

My originally bright mood suddenly turned cloudy when I approached the lobby and saw the wind blowing from the ceiling.

"Zhongli, what's going on? What did you and Wade do in the house when I was away?!"

The man sitting upright in the chair was sipping tea leisurely, with no trace of embarrassment or panic on his face.

Walnut asked angrily, but didn't get the answer he wanted.

Zhongli raised his eyes and looked at the girl at the door nonchalantly: "I didn't do anything. I just had a brief exchange with Mr. Wade."

"Discussion?"

Hu Tao raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhongli suspiciously.

\"Um.\"

Zhongli nodded and blew gently into the porcelain cup to skim off the foam on the surface of the tea.

\"How come I didn't know that you two had gotten so close and were even able to learn from each other when I was away?\"

Hu Tao was skeptical, but seeing that Zhongli acted as if it was a matter of fact and didn't seem like he was lying.

"Why did Wade provoke you?"

In Hu Tao's eyes, Zhongli's personality is that of an old man. He usually listens to operas and drinks tea. He has a good temper and is patient. Except for the fact that he spends money a little lavishly, he is generally gentle and polite.

Sometimes she would make a fuss, and no matter how big a joke she played on Zhong Li, this guy would just smile faintly, or shake his head helplessly at her with tolerance.

Normally, Zhongli would not act rashly unless Wade did something earth-shattering.

Walnut guessed so.

"Click."

There was a crisp sound.

Although Zhongli showed no emotion when he heard Hu Tao's question, his lowered golden eyes showed a rare hint of anger, and the valuable porcelain cup in his hand was crushed into pieces.

Kurumi was startled by the sound.

"Nothing... just a discussion."

Zhongli has a miserable life. Just think about how many men and women in Teyvat threw themselves into the arms of Morax, but he didn't even blink an eye.

He never expected that when he came to New York, he would be able to see this rare "weird thing" one day.

This time I have learned the diversity of the human species.

Hu Tao didn't think too much about Zhongli's words. Since this person didn't want to say it, then let him not say it.

Anyway, it must be that Wade's bad mouth offended Zhongli again. She had foreseen this situation when she saw Wade teasing Zhongli for the first time.

Walnut didn't mean to blame him, he just felt it was troublesome.

"So the result is that you guys smashed my ceiling during your 'sparring'?"

Hu Tao's eyebrows raised and she looked at Zhongli angrily. The latter waved his hand lightly, and the powder in the porcelain cup scattered with the wind. He shrugged.

His voice is mellow and magnetic, and his expression is calm.

"It's obvious."

"What about Wade?!"

Zhong Li shook his head: "Maybe he went for treatment, it seems that his tailbone has a little problem during the process of sparring with me."

"...You just let him go like that! His coffin hasn't even been paid for yet."

Hu Tao was annoyed, but saw Zhongli took out a glass teapot from somewhere and started tinkering with it.

"You, oh, what should I say to you? That guy promised me that he would pay me back as soon as he made money. No, no, I have to go find him. Wade is not going to default on his debt, is he? He has a history of skipping payments."

Hu Tao walked back and forth in the room several times with his hands on his hips, looking up at the roof with a big hole in it. He was in a very bad mood at the moment.

"Hey, I have to find someone to fix it."

"Zhongli, you stay and look after the store. I'll go find someone."

After saying that, Walnut ran out the door.

Zhongli casually placed the teapot on the table and stood up.

His eyes followed Kurumi away from the corner and then turned his gaze towards the hole above.

"But I'll just give him a slight punishment. I hope he can learn his lesson."

......

Hospital emergency room.

Behind the closed curtain, the doctor in a white coat was sighing at the miserable condition of the man in front of him. His hands were covered in blood and his forehead was covered with tiny beads of sweat.

"Sir, I'm sorry. I've tried my best. But your injuries are too severe. Even if the best andrologist in New York came here, he wouldn't be able to bring you back to life."

"Did I ask you to save me? I just asked you to give my two little brothers anesthesia. Hurry up and do it!"

The doctor said to the patient on the bed who was wailing with unclear meanings in a heartbroken tone: "Otherwise, let's cut it off. It's all broken into pieces. The anesthetic is just a psychological comfort at the moment. Cutting the Gordian knot is the best option. If you wait a little longer, it might start to change color."

The doctor in charge analyzed based on his rich medical experience that if the patient did not undergo surgery, his life would likely be in danger.

"I don't! Do you know how long and painful it is for my balls to grow back?"

The doctor's words were strongly opposed by the patient.

"Re-grow? No, what I mean is, I know a colleague named Helen Zhao who is very experienced in this area. She happened to come to New York in the past few months. She is very knowledgeable about the reconstruction of body tissues. I can introduce her to you. Maybe she can give your little brothers... a second life."

The person on the hospital bed turned his head and wanted to continue speaking, but even such a slight movement brought him an indescribable tearing feeling.

"Fuck!!!"

This person was none other than Wade after he had sparred with Zhongli.

A sharp pain rushed from the bottom to the forehead. He couldn't help but curse out loud, and the blue veins on his forehead were exposed.

"No, no, no, I just need you to give them a shot. I can handle the rest myself."

The doctor sighed helplessly. He couldn't persuade this persistent patient, so he arranged for a nurse to satisfy him.

"Ah~"

The medication kicked in, relieving the pain of the rapidly growing repair in the injured area.

"I feel great."

“Make way!! Get out of the way!!”

The noise outside caught Wade's attention. He pulled aside the curtain and just happened to make eye contact with the burned face of the person in the ambulance.

"Wardfa! Bro you are uglier than me!"

"Someone set a fire! Mutants are causing trouble!!"
