Chapter 108: Bonds

"Xiaofan, don't do this kind of thing that makes relatives and enemies happy."

She rested her head on Lu Fan's back, and the two of them stood in the bathroom wordlessly.

And so it went for a few minutes.

Feeling the tenderness that seemed to wrap his whole body from behind, Lu Fan finally calmed down.

"I'm sorry, Xue Ran, for worrying you." He exhaled softly and regained his spirits.

At this moment, Lu Fan knew that remorse was useless.

In this world, enemies will not sympathize with you because you are weak, but will only fear you because you are strong.

He is more eager than ever to be empowered, and more than ever, he wants his company to grow and grow, so that the little ones will not dare to act rashly.

At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart that today's matter would one day be returned by the Qunlong Group a hundredfold!

In terms of personality, Lu Fan once thought of himself as a person with a big heart.

Since he was a student, he has carried a bunch of labels on him: "Middle Two Disease", "Otaku", "Stuffy Gourd"......

These labels accompanied him until he graduated and went into work.

So he has long cultivated a cheeky skin that is invincible, and he is not impressed by the ridicule and pranks of other classmates.

This is true even now.

But if someone wants to touch someone he cares about, it touches his bottom line.

"It doesn't matter what I do. But I'm not going to let you get hurt! ”

Lu Fan turned around, grabbed Xue Ran's shoulders, and looked firmly into her big watery eyes.

Tao Xueran's face was slightly red, and she nodded: "Well, I believe in you." ”

She gently continued to bandage Lu Fan's wounds.

"But, in turn, you have to trust us.

After all, your ability alone is limited, and uniting to move forward towards the goal is also the meaning of the existence of partners.

Partners are not only willing to enjoy benefits and are unwilling to take risks, but simply opportunists.

We, including Ilya and Yuko, are all partners who have volunteered to stay by your side! ”

Lu Fan was moved for a while, he remembered the previous missions, if it weren't for these companions of the House of Everything, it would have been impossible to complete it so smoothly.

It seems that in the future, we will have to rely on them more.

……

……

……

At first, there was darkness as far as the eye could see.

Slowly, a light appeared in front of her, and Ilya's vision became clearer.

When she raised her eyes, she was surrounded by a vast starry sky, a galaxy composed of planets of various sizes, like large beads and small beads falling on jade plates, dotting the sky.

Ribbons of light like silk flew through these galaxies towards the unknown end of the universe.

The orderly and vibrant Strange Cat Universe is the realm controlled by the space-time cat people, and it is also the place where they were born.

Ilya is curiously looking down at it all from a dimension of tens of thousands of light-years.

Suddenly, a wave appeared from the depths of the universe, followed by a dark vortex.

The whirlpool swirls like a kaleidoscope, weird and twisted, making people feel creepy when they look at it.

She found that this distortion of the universe was very similar to the phenomenon called the collapse of the universe from a textbook when she was training in the Dimensional Authority.

Even if it is as powerful as the strange cat family, after millions of years of evolution and evolution, this phenomenon has not been thoroughly studied.

This phenomenon of collapse, like a plague, descends on this universe every few epochs.

Looking at this maelstrom that constantly distorted time and space, Ilya frowned slightly.

She really didn't like it.

Just then, Ilya heard a voice calling out to her.

At first, the sound was small, and later, it became louder and louder......

The voice was a young man, with a wide and rich vocal range, full of neutrality, although the timbre sounded childish, but there was a faint sense of the vicissitudes of time.

This voice made Ilya subconsciously feel familiar and familiar.

Hearing the call, she responded almost instinctively.

"Lord...... Master! ”

……

When Ilya reopened her eyes, she was greeted by the familiar ceiling of the surveillance room.

When she looked down again, she found herself lying on the small bed in Yuko's bedroom, and Lu Fan was sitting next to her.

"Elijah?"

Seeing her open her eyes, Lu Fan came over excitedly, "Great, you're finally awake?" ”

Ilya looked dazed, still in a hazy state that she had just woken up, and her ears drooped.

Lu Fan opened his mouth and said, "When I called you just now, why did you keep talking about the master, the master, what...... I'd love to be your owner, but you don't have to rush to have a relationship with me, do you? ”

"No Road Race!" Ilya glanced at Lu Fan, then turned her little head and ignored him.

This man is so thick-skinned.

"I'm sorry to disturb your dreams, but it's time to go home."

"Where's Yuko?" Ilya asked quickly.

"She is still asleep, but her body is fine, and now Xue Ran is with her in the school infirmary."

"Oh......" Ilya breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the evening, Tao Xueran has stayed in the school infirmary, preparing to spend the night with Youzi.

Pei Yu was not at ease, so he assigned some warriors from the Qingsong Group to guard outside the door of the infirmary and monitoring room, and then left the school.

……

The midnight moonlight sprinkled on the street, and Lu Fan carried Ilya on the way home.

"Let me go, I can go on my own."

Ilya, who was lying on Lu Fan's back, hammered Lu Fan's shoulder with a small pink fist.

"Come on, you almost fell on the ground again as soon as you got out of bed, it's rare for me to have a chance to serve the server, you better enjoy it obediently."

"Hmph, just a client ......"

Although she said so, her cat ears stood up excitedly, and her little face unconsciously leaned on Lu Fan's shoulder.

Lu Fan glanced at the server power in the upper right corner, and after seeing that it was stable at 80%, he breathed a sigh of relief.

When he killed Luo Xuan in the Lianyu Coffee Shop during the day, he saw that there was only 10% left in the power bar, and he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and he was afraid to think about it.

"Then again, why would you go it alone?"

"I ...... I don't want to be just a beckoning cat......" Ilya hung her head and muttered softly.

"Everyone in the whole house has something to do, and I'm the only one who is the mascot, and I also want to play a role in the critical moment."

After hearing this, Lu Fan felt that the warm current flowed through his heart.

The corners of his mouth curled, but he quickly returned to normal, and continued to pretend to be serious:

"If you have something to do with the police and the special search class, haven't you learned this kind of common sense since you were a child?"

The tone was like a father blaming his daughter.

"Cut, I thought I could handle it, but I didn't expect it to go wrong."

Ilya was also puzzled when she recalled what had happened before.

It stands to reason that she forced her through the warning that limited her power, and there should be no hindrance after that.

How could it suddenly lose its strength and disappear the Ghost Fire Sword?

After thinking about it, there was only one possibility—there were other Dimensional Authority employees in this world besides her.

Because only people with similar permissions can operate with each other.

Who is this guy and what is his motivation for appearing in this world?

Ilya's red pupils blinked, and her brain raced, still puzzled.

Thinking about it, she felt her eyelids grow heavier......

"So, even if you want to fight with the other party, you have to pay attention to the method......" Lu Fan continued to say halfway, and found that Ilya did not answer him again, instead of an even breathing sound,

He turned his head and saw that the goods were probably too tired today and fell asleep again.

A pleasant aroma came to his nose, and he realized that Ilya's face was too close.

In the moonlight, her small face was like a doll, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, her lips twitching, as if she were dreaming sweetly.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, when you look at it, Lu Fan is almost going to be cute again, so he quickly turned his head back.

In this way, a person and a cat walked slowly in the direction of home on an empty city road.

Lu Fan watched the street lamps on the side of the street flashing backwards in rows, and his thoughts drifted away again.

During the day, when he noticed that Ilya was in danger, he felt his heart stop.

This is definitely not because of the fear that "the server battery will go to zero, and he, the client, will also hang up".

It's a real fear of "losing the cherished people."

The time spent with Ilya these days flashed before his eyes like a slide.

When he forcibly dragged him into the bed, Ilya's delicate appearance ......

On that rainy night, when I went to Ilya's apartment for the first time, the other party was sleepwalking and hugged him from behind......

In Shilong Entertainment City, she was angry because her figure was not as good as lust......

When I made a lunch for her in the kitchen of the apartment, she was so hungry that she had to go to the kitchen door every once in a while to smell the smell, and she really looked like a cat that smelled the smell of small dried fish......

Although this cat lady's personality is a bit arrogant, Lu Fan doesn't hate this.

In the beginning, he traveled to this world and kept doing tasks in order to simply become the king of words and spirits.

Because only in this way will the Dimensional Authority, which likes to play with people, return his freedom.

He didn't understand why the Dimensional Authority had the idle egg in his mobile phone with "The Game of Words", and for what purpose Ilya came to him.

But in any case, in his eyes, Ilya is no longer just a server and a system administrator.

In a sense, it is more like a kind of existence similar to "fetters".

He turned his head to look at Elijah's sleeping face and muttered, "I'll protect you, Elijah." ”

……

Heavy Industrial Park, North District, Donghai City, Underground Laboratory of Tielong Technology Company.

In a cramped, damp and dark secret room, Masao Sakura, who was lying on a small iron bed, slowly regained consciousness from his sobriety.

He coughed, feeling a sharp pain in the back of his head and his throat burning like fire.

"Water ......"

Just as he was about to get up to find a glass of water to drink, he looked at his surroundings and froze.

“…… Where is it? ”

When he tried to get up and move, he found himself shackled at his wrists and ankles.

After a while, the heavy iron door of the chamber creaked open, and Ryo Suzuki and several researcher-looking people walked in.

"Teacher, are you awake and sleeping comfortably?" Ryo Suzuki smiled.

"Suzuki-kun, what's going on?"

The shackles rattled and rattled, and Masao Sakura tried to break free from the shackles, but failed.

"Teacher, your voice doesn't sound good, let's drink some water first."

Ryo Suzuki gestured to the assistant next to him with his eyes.

The assistant picked up a bottle of water, stepped forward and rudely pinched Masao Sakura's neck, stretched his mouth open, and poured it down.

Masao Sakura choked and coughed, but his throat finally felt better.

"It's also my mistake, I didn't expect the hypnotic agent I added to the wine to be so violent, and the teacher slept for a full day and a night before waking up." Ryo Suzuki smiled eerily.

At this time, Masao Sakura realized that he had fallen into the trap of Ryo Suzuki and was imprisoned by the other party.

"You scoundrel, why did you do this?"
