Chapter 5 Orphans and Lies
"Cyrin, good boy, don't worry, mom will be fine."
In the white ward, the brown-haired woman lying on the hospital bed had her golden eyes full of doting and reluctance.
Trying to reach out and put his pale palm over Celine's purple hair, he stroked it gently.
"Uh-huh!" Celine nodded her little head, and there was a trace of worry hidden in the depths of her eyes, but she didn't show it.
"Mom, Brother Aji said that the doctors here are the best in the city, and they will definitely be able to cure Mommy's illness! Wait until mom is well......"
Celine whispered her fantasies about the future, and the woman on the hospital bed smiled thickly, but she couldn't hide her sickly color, which was as pale as paper.
"Except for you, Brother Aji, don't trust others too much in the future."
"Huh?" Celine raised her little head, her golden eyes full of puzzlement.
Outside the ward.
Yae Ji clasped his hands on his chest, leaned his back against the wall, lowered his head and closed his eyes, looking like he was pretending to sleep.
He could hear clearly what the mother and daughter said in the ward.
Due to age constraints, Cialin's mother, even though she was well-known in a nearby town, did not know much about life in a big city.
With her status, it is clear that she cannot enjoy a private room in this hospital.
Not long after arriving in this city, Yae Ji contacted Aiyi, and through Aiyi, he contacted Liana again, and after the code, he already had the highest authority in the Mandate of Heaven stationed here.
Whether it is according to the development of the original history, or the requirement of convenience and stability, he is more inclined to become the law of emptiness. It's the same as facing 'Ji' in the Moth of Fire and becoming the Lawgiver of Fire.
The difference is that he didn't have the ability to save the Lawyer's body then, but now he does.
Celine becomes the Lawgiver of Emptiness and goes to the moon to obtain the four powers given by God... I have rehearsed it several times according to the script!
He has the strength to prevent Celine from becoming the Lawgiver of Emptiness, and then what? It is not possible to identify the new lawyers, and the instability in each region has skyrocketed, and the risk is higher.
He had discussed it with Rianna before, and agreed that it would be safer to make Celine the Lawgiver of the Void, and then use the back hand to influence Sirin, and the best outcome would be to transfer her from the Honkai side to the human side.
Before that, Cyrin had to go through the pain.
"Cyrin..."
Yae Ji murmured softly.
Click~
Hurried footsteps sounded, and a middle-aged doctor in a white lab coat hurried in.
"Your Excellency." The middle-aged doctor saluted slightly and said in a low voice, "Everything is ready." β
"Hmm." Yae Ji answered, and the doctor had just walked by when the door of the ward suddenly "clicked" open.
Cyrin poked her little head out of it, "Brother Aji... Mom wants to talk to you. β
Yae Ji immediately had a smile on his face, and habitually rubbed Celine's little head, "Okay." β
Xu was reminded by her mother that Xilin stayed outside honestly, and from time to time a nurse lady walked by with a medicine cart and smiled kindly at this cute little girl.
Indoors.
Sirin's mother looked even more tired, and Yaeji used her invisible mood to probe slightly, and found the cause of the disease.
Cirin's mother's own resistance to Honkai energy is not bad, mainly due to physical problems, unlike the villagers in the village who are affected by Honkai and get sick.
Cancer has made her body fragile, and the erosion has intensified, and for this era, the condition is extremely complicated, and doctors can only advise her to eat and drink well and have fun, and enjoy the last time of her life.
"IβCan I ask you for something?" Celine's mother looked directly at Yaeji, and her golden eyes were a little dim.
Yae Ji nodded.
"I know I can't be cured, and I heard everything the doctor said to you in the morning." The woman took a breath and continued: "Don't waste your money in vain, I have a hunch that I don't have a few days to live." I... I don't know if there's enough money, but also the property, and some jewelry in the second compartment under the wardrobe... After I die, those are yours. β
The woman struggled to see the expression on Yaeji's face, as if she wanted to see something on his face.
She was disappointed.
She gasped again and said, "Celine... Can I ask you? β
As if she was afraid that Yae Ji would misunderstand, the woman hurriedly said: "Just take care of her as an adult, when she goes to college, she can apply for a loan, and then you don't have to worry about her... It's true... Please..."
"You believe me so much?" Yae Ji raised her eyebrows and looked at the sick woman on the hospital bed.
There is no doubt that the woman who can give birth to a huge and lovely Xilin, the woman's appearance is not bad at all, and the frail woman lying on the hospital bed has an alternative beauty at this time.
"Believe." The woman spoke firmly, but there was a pleading look on her pretty face.
Yae Ji rolled his eyes in his heart, are people in this era so pure? Aren't you afraid that he will sell Xilin and dominate the family fortune? I don't even have any sense of the law.
I really don't know if this beautiful woman is on the first or third floor.
γOld mille-feuilleγ
Ignoring the routine complaint of the "mobile phone", Yae Ji said: "Did you say it over there?" β
Seeing Yaeji's attitude, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, "No... I left her a letter, in the drawer next to it. β
"Well, okay, I'll leave it to Celine, you can rest assured."
Yaeji's words seemed to have magical power, and a satisfied smile appeared on the woman's face, and her consciousness also sank, "Really, really bothering you." β
With that, the woman fell asleep.
"With kids... I'm also good at taking care of kids, and the skill panel should give me a skill with kids. Yae Ji complained to herself, "I only brought the child to the age of sixteen, and the rest has to rely on yourself, who made you her mother?" When the time comes, you mother and daughter, don't cut me with a knife. β
"No, why does that sound so awkward?"
Cyrin's mother can't die, and it will be one of the antidotes left to the lawyer Cyrin in the future.
What the? Mortal disease?
Where did RC go? Where did the black abyss white flower go?
In the world of Honkai, when you reach a certain level, it is not easy for you to live normally and want to die.

Celine, who had seen her mother for the last time in the morgue, cried to death.
At this time, Celine was shrinking in the passenger seat of the old pickup truck, and her usually stiff hair was hanging aside.
There were still tear stains on her slightly baby-fat little face, and under the double pressure of exhaustion and emaciation, Celine, who was barely asleep, still talked about her mother from time to time.
The death of her mother is really a fatal blow to Celine, who is a single-parent family and depends on her mother for her life.
If it weren't for the fact that the current Xilin was still a little small, Yaju Ji estimated that there was a chance that she would attract the attention of the "gods" in this wave.
Airplanes~
The engine of the old pickup truck shook a few times one last time, stopping the old panting, and Yaeji got out of the car and opened the door from the other side.
"Cyrin, Cyrin, wake up, it's home."
Xilin, who was hazy and sleepy, scratched her face and shrunk back again, "No~ People still want to sleep for a while......"
