"Hey, you're awake?

The operation was successful, and from now on you are a boy!"

Ke Lai woke up slowly. Su Qian, who was accompanying Shui Qun at the bedside, saw Ke Lai wake up, walked up to him and smiled softly.

Ke Lai was stunned when he heard this, then he subconsciously reached for the quilt, but he froze halfway through the action, then looked at Su Qian with a frown on his face.

"Hahaha, just kidding. Now feel your body carefully."

Su Qian signaled Ke Lai to calm down and let her feel her injuries.

“As a normal person, I suffered from the Demon Scale Disease and survived the Demon God’s residual experiments.

Being able to survive and flee for so long, you must have accumulated many hidden injuries.

All the negative emotions that had been accumulated in your heart almost burst out at once, perhaps because of the black flame.

But more importantly, it's you yourself, your emotions have reached their limit.

I tried to remove most of the negativity from your mind.

But if you continue in this state, the final result can only be... losing control."

After hearing this, Ke Lai was silent for a long time. His eyes were fixed on Su Qian, waiting for him to continue.

Su Qian was not in a hurry. He looked at Ke Lai quietly, waiting for him to speak first.

Finally, Cole broke the silence: "You mean..."

Su Qian smiled slightly, with a hint of mystery in his eyes:

“Here are two methods that can change the black flame in your body.

One is to directly rid you of the black flame in your body, and you will have nothing to do with it from now on;

The other is to allow you to indirectly manipulate the black flame and use it for your own benefit."

After Su Qian finished speaking, he stared at Ke Lai closely, wanting to see what decision he would make.

Cole lowered his head, pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said firmly:

"I choose the second option."

Hearing this answer, Su Qian was slightly surprised, but still nodded, seeming satisfied with Cole's choice.

Then, Su Qian asked again:

“If you choose the first option, I can give you a stronger power, much stronger than the Black Flame.

Wouldn't you consider it again?"

Cole shook his head, indicating that he had made a decision.

Su Qian looked at Ke Lai curiously, feeling a surge of admiration in his heart.

He knew that Cole must have his reasons for making such a choice.

So he asked, "Why?"

Cole took a deep breath and replied:

“Because this power was obtained by my mother with her life, I will use this power to kill those guys.

Only then will revenge have meaning."

Upon hearing this, Su Qian didn't say anything more and just nodded silently.

As long as Cole can master this power, he will definitely become an outstanding original god in the future.

"Then I will repair your body first."

Su Qian nodded to Ke Lai, then stretched out his right hand, and a ball of golden flame emerged from his palm.

"This is the First Fire, and it is also the power I originally intended to give you."

Su Qian flipped his palm and injected the primordial fire into Ke Lai's body, saying:

"The First Flame possesses a variety of magical abilities, and it can also be used as a consumable item."

"Now, I will use the First Fire to suppress the black flame in your body."

As the primordial fire entered Cole's body, the black flames that were raging throughout her body were instantly suppressed, as if they had encountered a natural enemy, and they huddled in the corner of their body and trembled.

"The Black Flame will affect you through your own negative emotions, while the First Fire feeds on emotions and other energies."

Su Qian explained: "So with the addition of the First Fire, you don't have to worry about not being able to control the Black Flame."

"However, without your instruction, the First Fire cannot completely eliminate the Black Flame. It can only suppress it temporarily."

Su Qian continued: “If you want to completely solve this problem, you still need to rely on your own ideas.

Perhaps after you have your revenge, you will change your mind."

Finally, Su Qian passed on the operation method of the First Fire into Cole's mind, allowing her to better master this power.

"……Thanks."

Cole turned his head away and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

"Well, the information about the people you found is already on the table."

Su Qian's voice was very soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.

Then, Su Qian took a deep breath and continued:

“Those people will travel outside Mondstadt overnight, and you still have three days.

If you can survive and come back here, I will prepare a new surprise for you, and you will definitely like it."

After Su Qian said this, a barely perceptible smile appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, Cole nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Su Qian's hand gently left Ke Lai's forehead, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Your name is... Su Qian... right?"

Ke Lai suddenly asked, her voice still a little awkward, but full of sincerity.

"Ah."

Su Qian replied, his voice calm and gentle, like a spring breeze blowing through Kelai's heart.

After saying that, Su Qian disappeared out the door, leaving Ke Lai sitting quietly on the bed.

Cole's eyes fell on the package on the bedside table, which contained her hopes and future.

She took a deep breath, a hint of gratitude flashing in her eyes.

She knew that all this was because of Su Qian, because of his help and support.

Finally, Cole's eyes became firm.

She decided to live well and live up to Su Qian's expectations of her.

She picked up the package and held it tightly in her arms, as if it was as important as her own life.

Then, she slowly closed her eyes and began to adjust her state. When she opened her eyes again, the figure had left the room and disappeared into the night.

"She's gone."

Keqing stood in the corridor, looked at Su Qian and spoke.

"Well, let's get started too."

Su Qian nodded and followed Keqing into the conference room.

"Many of the people under the command of the Doctor of Fools have already been recorded. The deterrent measures taken by Solstice some time ago were quite effective, but these people are very difficult to deal with."

Keqing opened the file and explained:

"The names on this list were all recently investigated. Most of them are hiding in the dark of Liyue, but they haven't taken any action."

"What's the reason?" Su Qian asked.

"Because they haven't received the mission yet." Keqing replied:

"The group of people under the doctor seem to be fearless and collect people from various countries and regions as test subjects for him.

They knew that if this was discovered they would be sentenced to death, but they still did it.

It seems that if we don't do what the doctor says, something even more terrible will happen.

Cole's case is already clear, and the doctor's research has yielded results."

Keqing closed the file and summarized:

“Trying to master the power of the demon god with a human body, I don’t care about that.

I only care about his actions today when Liyue forcibly announced the expulsion of the Fatui from Liyue.

These guys actually dare to harbor such evil intentions."

Keqing said in an angry tone.

"The current Liyue people are still too weak to be fully compared with the Kingdom of Winter."

Su Qian said indifferently:

“The first few members of the Fatui all have the strength of a demon god, while on the Liyue side, apart from the Rock God and the Immortal, there are only a limited number of other powerful humans.

If the top fighters of both sides do not take action, Liyue may be able to quickly defeat Winterfell, but it will definitely not be able to kill all the Fatui. "

He looked at the Fatui symbol on the file in Keqing's hand, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

“What we can do now is to completely eliminate these maggots in the interests of justice.

I thought we had completely eliminated the Fatui stronghold in Liyue last time, but I didn't expect there were still some that slipped through the net.

If we hadn't investigated the matter of Kelai and discovered that those guys were active in Liyue, it might have taken us a long time to find any trace of these guys."

Keqing nodded and said seriously:

“Indeed, the Fatui are in the dark, and Liyue must remain vigilant at all times.

They will always find opportunities to sabotage us, and we cannot give them any chance.

This incident also made me realize that the fight against the Fatui must be continuous and there can be no slackness. "

She clenched her fists tightly and said with a firm look:

"We must strengthen our surveillance of the Fatui and not let go of any suspicious clues.

At the same time, we must also improve the overall strength of Liyue's Thousand Rock Army so that the Fatui will not dare to provoke them easily."

Su Qian nodded in agreement:

“That’s right, only a powerful force can protect the peace of Liyue.

We need to cultivate more talents and enhance Liyue's overall national strength.

This is not only a deterrent to the Fatui, but also a precaution against other threats that may arise in the future.

Dignity is only on the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon."

The two looked at each other and reached a tacit consensus in their hearts.

The fight against the Fatui will be a long one, but as long as the people of Liyue stand united, they can overcome all difficulties.

“The General Affairs Department has arranged for the Thousand Rock Army to block every road out of Liyue.

The Fatui's hidden strongholds are also guarded by the organized Thousand Rock Army.

If necessary, the border troops can directly suppress the group of Fatui experimenters who wanted to escape and tortured Cole. "

Keqing spoke up.

“Don’t worry about Kelai. She has a backup plan I left with her, which is enough to deal with danger.

Let's go, it's getting late, let's go home first, tomorrow morning, we will probably have the news we want."

Su Qian pulled Keqing up, and the two of them rushed home together.

Liyue Harbor, Teahouse on the Rock.

Everyone in Liyue knew that the Yanshang Tea House had once changed hands.

The reason was that the previous owner had to sell the property due to debt problems.

After the new owner took over, some subtle adjustments were made to the main business of the tea room.

Although the main purpose of this place is still to drink tea, it is now more than just an ordinary teahouse.

The new owner warmly invites every visitor: "Since you are a guest, why not come upstairs and have a cup of tea?"

Ye Lan's original plan was to thoroughly investigate the former owner of "Yan Shang Tea House", but she did not expect that "Young Master" Tartaglia would act faster than her.

Not only did Dadalia go to the door to collect the debt, but he also ruthlessly exposed the false accounts made by the former boss.

This eventually led to the former boss being convicted and sent to prison.

As for Ye Lan, thanks to the indirect help of Tartaglia, he successfully took over the Yanshang Tea House and got a very good base.

At that time, Ye Lan had just returned to Liyue after her long journey in a foreign land.

Liyue had just experienced a major event of completely expelling the Fatui, and the Fatui's power was completely eliminated from Liyue.

At this time, the members of the Fatui who originally occupied the Yanshang Tea House were purged and eliminated.

So, Ye Lan seized this opportunity, became the new owner of Yanshang Teahouse, and transformed it into a secret office.

Since the new owner took over the teahouse, those who used to be keen on gambling have almost disappeared without a trace.

The card game is no longer associated with Mora, but has returned to its original and purest state - an ordinary entertainment activity in leisure time.

Ye Lan took the letter in her hand and played with it, a barely perceptible smile on her face, and she felt a little funny in her heart.

She always thought that the rich guy was lawless to the extreme, but she didn't expect that there were people who were even less afraid of death than him, such as this doctor.

The letter in Ye Lan's hand at this time was the one Ningguang gave her.

As one of the seven stars of Liyue, Tianquan Star, Ningguang is also Ye Lan's partner.

At the beginning, Ye Lan successfully helped Ningguang to ascend to the position of Tianquan Star ahead of time with her own abilities, and Ningguang recommended her a job as a special intelligence officer.

Despite this, Ye Lan knew very well that she was not anyone's subordinate, and the cooperation between her and Ningguang was more like an exchange of interests rather than a simple superior-subordinate relationship.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that... a tacit contract was formed between them.

Ye Lan can obtain all the intelligence fruits from the dangerous flowers for Ningguang, but all she asks for in return is the excitement brought by the danger and the sense of accomplishment after completing the task.

This unique cooperation model makes people curious about the reasons behind it.

While little is known about the origins of this collaboration, it is certain that Ye-Lan's footprint has extended to lands beyond Liyue.

Whenever the stars in the sky shine, it seems that Ye Lan can be seen flying around like a ghost.

"Are Su Qian and Keqing also involved?

I am also very interested in the matters involving Tianquan, Tianshu, and Yuheng, the three Seven Stars."

Ye Lan pursed her lips and disappeared.

"The master has run away again. There are still many documents and information that have not been sorted out."

Shang Hua sighed and looked at the pile of documents in front of him helplessly.

Shanghua:

One of Ye Lan's right-hand men, he is proficient in business and likes to trade for information.

He usually keeps guard near the teahouse and will perform various tasks when necessary.

During the Seven Stars selection, he was responsible for investigating Ming Bo, one of the three candidates.

"That's how adults are. Haven't you gotten used to it after all these years?"

Wen Yuan glanced at Shang Hua and shook his head.

Wenyuan:

One of Ye Lan's right-hand men, he mostly relies on lobbying to get information.

He usually keeps guard near the teahouse and will perform various tasks when necessary.

During the Seven Stars selection, he was responsible for investigating Qian Wei, one of the three candidates.
