Tomorrow's Ark, the Battle of the Sick

Tallulah withdrew her gaze expressionlessly and told the truth.

"We should have killed him just now." At this time, W's expression was no longer calm, obviously the strange experience just now made her unable to keep calm. "Obviously there are a lot of knives in the kitchen - um - I didn't dare to move at all!"

Although W knew that Tallulah's arrest was related to him, she didn't know how. Some kind of intuition made her dare not act rashly, even if W could use anything as a weapon. Before that, she gave up the idea of ​​taking risks.

"If he'd been that stupid, maybe we wouldn't have gotten to this point."

"Well, that's true, after all, the collar around the neck is still on."

W stroked the collar on his neck, recalling the scene of being 'trained' by Skadi before, his eyes gradually became gloomy.

It has been at least six hours since Tallulah woke up. After gradually getting used to the surrounding environment, both of them were vaguely aware of the changes in themselves.

"Could it be that he--shouldn't be that kind of plan?" W sat on the edge of the bed, talking to himself in disbelief, "want to assimilate us in this way?"

"——I don't know what you've been through during this time, but the former you wouldn't say such naive things."

Although it was subtle, Tallulah seemed to be aware of the changes in W.

Since reuniting with W, Tallulah has been wary of the possibility of W's rebellion, because of W's distorted personality, she likes interesting things and is willing to take risks for them, which also makes her the most unstable among the cadres of the integration movement.

"—Isn't Tallulah's mind too narrow?"

Now that he is deeply imprisoned, W no longer pretends to Tallulah too much, although he doesn't want to do anything to her, just showing a sarcastic smile.

"You know that man better than me. If someone tells me that he wants to overthrow the rule of those hypocrites in Longmen, he is just a lunatic who can't recognize himself. But if that man says he wants to evaporate the deep sea, I won't doubt him Will really do it, so we can't use ordinary thinking to speculate on his behavior."

W seldom speaks this kind of long speech, but it doesn't mean she won't weigh and think.

During the period of deep imprisonment, W never gave up thinking, and obtained information about him from the operators he contacted by insinuation. Although the gains were minimal, he was also able to understand their strongest opponent from another angle.

"Assimilation, hehe——" Tallulah's chuckle was without warmth, "Trying to be kind to people, to make people get lost and change their minds, this is like his style, but I don't think he will treat us like this."

W can't refute Tallulah's opinion.

Lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, W still feels that she is in a bizarre dream, only in the dream, she will live in a safe suite with Tallulah, instead of planning in some corner of the world Riot, only in her dream could she have dinner at the same table with that man.

Unfortunately, however, she was clearly aware that she was in reality, in an environment that had never existed in any imagination - locked up by him in a luxuriously decorated suite.

Although there were occasional fears and anger welling up in their hearts, the two did not act to destroy the surrounding environment, because no matter what schemes they tried to use this room for, as long as they could not use the Originium skills, the outcome would be the same.

Even if the doctor doesn't act, those operators don't just have strength.

"Live on 'love each other', Tallulah, anyway, I'm used to finding fun in a boring life."

Regarding W's self-deprecating words, Tallulah didn't speak, and stretched out her hand to hug W into her arms. Although she was not used to Tallulah's transformation, W still accepted Tallulah's touch.

At least this way, it's not particularly boring.

"It's good that you didn't get hurt anyway, thank you for your hard work."

After listening to Ceylon explain the whole story of the chemical plant operation, the doctor heaved a sigh of relief.

"The only regret is that their research and development site has not been found. Similar infectious organisms may continue to appear in the future. It depends on the committee to make a decision."

"Well, leave the follow-up to us."

The three talked about a lot of topics, including Hei who couldn't come together because of the mission, including the ghost shark who asked the doctor to tell Skadi on his behalf, and the recent situation of the guard team in Victoria.

When the atmosphere was getting better, Ceylon put down the teacup and winked at Skadi. Skadi nodded slowly and then sat closer to the doctor.

"Doctor," Skadi said, poking the ground, "can you sleep with us tonight?"

As soon as Skadi's words came out, not only the doctor, but also Ceylon's movements stopped.

Ceylon's pretty face was stained crimson, and the snow-white arms exposed by the suspenders were shaking slightly, trying to hide it.

"S—Skadi, what are you talking about, why do you ask the doctor such an unladylike question? Why do you sleep with me—"

Apparently, Ceylon didn't expect Skadi to be so upright, and obviously just arranged for her to give a hint, but now she was a little at a loss. Skadi, who was not aware of the problem at all, silently stroked her temples by her ears, and looked at Ceylon in confusion.

"Well, it's not that Ceylon asked me to—"

"Speaking of which! What do you think of the black tea tonight?"

In desperation, Ceylon raised her voice unladylike to attract the doctor's attention.

"It's delicious, thank you for the hospitality." The doctor said hesitantly, "What Skadi said just now, have you heard the rumors of the Guards?"

"Uh, uh—"

Ceylon glanced away subtly, rather than hearing about it, it would be better to say that the women's dormitory knew about it a long time ago and was deeply involved in it, although these were destined not to be revealed to the doctor.

"How should I put it, apart from your reasons, this is a women's dormitory area after all, and I can't stay here overnight."

The doctor's words are very reasonable. In fact, Ceylon has considered this issue earlier, just holding a glimmer of hope to see if the doctor can stay overnight.

But for some reason, even though she was declined by the doctor, Ceylon did not give up easily.

"Actually, the doctor doesn't need to be troubled, because outsiders are not allowed to come in here. Since the doctor can come in, it's not a matter of day and night. Even staying overnight is completely okay? After all, this is the authority of the doctor."

Ceylon plucked up his courage, stood up, walked to the doctor's side, and gently held the doctor's shoulder.

Only then did the doctor notice that Ceylon was wearing a set of relatively casual suspenders and short skirts instead of the usual conservative Victorian-style long skirt and top hat, and her snow-white thighs were particularly dazzling.

"—So, won't the doctor reconsider?"
