On the occasion of collapse

Poria's eyes flashed when she saw the pages Bianca turned.

I don’t know what that stinky girl is doing now. Speaking of which, I haven’t gone back to see her for almost half a year. She hasn’t caused any new mess since I was away...

.....

At this time, on the other side, Eastern Siberia.

The environment here is harsh, the cold weather and the lack of supplies have greatly reduced the number of people living here. Those who live here are usually people who cannot afford to leave, or who have lived here for generations.

"Ah Qiu!" Bai Zhi, who had just arrived here, felt the cold wind blowing and sneezed uncontrollably.

"This damn place is really cold." After knowing that Siegfried lived here with the experimental subject, Bai Zhi quietly ran over by herself, intending to see if Siegfried, that idiot, was still well. alive.

"The brat died outside, right? Why hasn't he come back yet?" Looking at the house where Siegfried lived not far away, Bai Zhi rubbed her nose, looking a little worried.

As far as she knew, Siegfried had been making a living by accepting commissions to hunt down Honkai Beasts since he came here. Because he took away the Heavenly Fire Sage, it was quite easy.

"There shouldn't be any high-level Honkai beasts in this place. At most, there should only be Honkai Emperors. There's no way that brat Siegfried can't handle it..." The Honkai energy content near Siberia is already very low. Logically speaking, no high-level Honkaimon would appear at all.

"Hmm?" Sensing the familiar aura, Bai Zhi took a step back and hid her body behind the pillar.

"The commission money this time should be enough to live on for a while. Let's buy some bars first..." Siegfried, who had just completed the commission, had the Holy Order of Skyfire hanging around his waist and walked tiredly towards the tavern in the town. He looked like an old man.

Seeing Siegfried's appearance, Bai Zhi pursed her lips but made no move.

After a while, Siegfried walked out of the tavern.

He was holding two bottles of spirits in his left hand, and an open bottle of spirits in his right hand, which he poured into his mouth.

In that look, there was no trace of the young man who had once been a high-spirited young man.

"Haha." Bai Zhi sighed slightly, took one last deep look at Siegfried, turned around and left.

Chapter 534 How can grandfather and grandson not be reconciled?

Returning to Tianming, Bai Zhi walked slowly on the road, but her heart was filled with worries.

"Sister Bai Zhi." A familiar voice came from the front. Bai Zhi pulled her mind out of her thoughts and looked at Otto who was standing not far away.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Subconsciously thinking that something happened, Bai Zhi shook her head to get rid of the messy thoughts.

"It's okay." Otto looked at Bai Zhi and knew that Siegfried's defection had a great impact on her.

"You just came back from Siegfried, right." Looking at Bai Zhi's look, Otto could probably guess something.

"Well, let's go and see how that brat is doing." Bai Zhi knew that Siegfried had never escaped Otto's sight, but now Otto didn't pay attention to him, so he told him that he had escaped. the illusion.

"That's it." Looking at the slightly disappointed Bai Zhi, Otto could guess that Siegfried was probably responsible.

"By the way, Theresa is gone?" Bai Zhi asked by the way, remembering Theresa's application to be transferred from the headquarters to the Far East Branch a few months ago.

"Well, she plans to build a Valkyrie school there. I have allocated funds and sent extra manpower there. Calculating the time, the construction should be completed soon." As he spoke slowly, Otto thought of Delly The way Sha looked when she applied for transfer was a bit sighing.

After all, I have grown up and have my own ideas.

"By the way, didn't you tell Theresa that Kiana was still alive?" Listening to Otto's words, Bai Zhi remembered that Theresa had walked out of Otto's office a few months ago with a disappointed look on her face. She also thought that Otto did not allow her to go to the Far East Branch, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"No, I just told her that I would try my best to save Kiana." Otto said casually, not intending to let Theresa know that Kiana was still alive, or in other words, he didn't intend to tell her directly.

"This way she will think you are lying to her to make her happy." Bai Zhi knows Theresa's character very well. If Otto says this, Theresa will definitely mistakenly think that Otto did not save Kiana.

"Then it's a misunderstanding. Even if she hates me, it's my own fault." Otto did not tell Theresa the truth, nor did he tell Theresa that Bai Zhi knew about it.

In Theresa's eyes, not saving Kiana was entirely his decision alone. Bai Zhi didn't even know that Kiana was taken away by Otto.

"Otto." Seeing Otto laughing at himself, Bai Zhi walked up to him and looked at him.

"Huh? What's wrong? Sister Bai Zhi?" Looking at Bai Zhi who suddenly came closer, Otto didn't understand what she wanted to do for a moment.

"Dong." Just when Otto was confused, Bai Zhi suddenly raised her hand and tapped Otto on the forehead.

"I take the responsibility on myself every day when I have nothing to do." Bai Zhi said angrily as she looked at Otto who subconsciously covered his forehead.

"I know." Otto said helplessly, knowing that even if he gave any reason, Bai Zhi would not pay attention to him.

"I know, you said this every time, and how many times did you do it?" Looking at Otto's look, Bai Zhi knew that her words were like a punch on the cotton.

"Sister Bai Zhi, there are some things that can only be done using my name. You also know that Otto Apocalis's reputation has become so bad now." As he spoke slowly, Otto knew that he His reputation is so bad that he knows that he has no credibility in anything he does.

"You." After listening to Otto's words, Bai Zhi sighed helplessly.

How could she not know?

Every time it was agreed that two people would bear the infamy together, but every time Otto silently shouldered all the responsibilities alone.

"Okay, Sister Bai Zhi, Teresa's school will be completed in a while. I have some things that I can't go to. How about you go and check it out for me?" Otto said slowly, always being very natural. to change the topic.

"Is it going to be completed? So soon? It's only been a few months?" Looking at Otto with a shocked face, Bai Zhi never expected that it would be almost completed in just a few months.

"Of course not. Now we are just building some superficial buildings. There are still many things to come." Looking at Bai Zhi's surprised look, Otto knew that Bai Zhi had misunderstood that this was about to be completed.

"When I say it's almost completed, I mean it will be completed in a few months." Of course, a school that big can't be completed in just three months. Even Destiny's infrastructure team will take time.

Moreover, outside the construction of the building, there is also the decoration inside the building.

"That's it. Then I'll go take a look when I have time, just in time to see if there's anything you need my help with." After listening to Otto's explanation, Bai Zhi felt normal.

She just said, who can finish a school so quickly.

"Well, Theresa will be very happy to see you." Thinking of Theresa's smiling face, Otto's mood improved a lot.

"Why don't you take some time to check it out? Grandpa and grandson are not reconciled." Seeing the smile on Otto's face, Bai Zhi patted him on the shoulder.

"Me? Forget it, Theresa probably doesn't want to see me now." Thinking of Theresa's disappointed look when she left, Otto felt that she must be extremely disappointed with his grandfather now.

First Cecilia, then Kiana.

Looking at it this way, he is really hateful.

"It's not now. In a few months, when the college is built, how about I go with you?" Bai Zhi blinked and continued to encourage Otto.

Bai Zhi still hopes that Theresa can understand Otto, but at this point, this can only be hope.

She heard Fuling say that Teresa's character was very similar to that of the person Otto loved, and both were upright.

That person could understand what Otto was doing, but he couldn't agree with it.

So Bai Zhi thought, if Theresa's character is really similar to that Kallen, then Theresa shouldn't be able to accept Otto's approach...

So Bai Zhi can only hope that Theresa can understand Otto, instead of thinking.

"Okay, then I will make time to go there with you, Sister Bai Zhi." Looking at Bai Zhi's look, Otto knew that he had no room to refuse.If he says no now, it is very likely that Bai Zhi will tie him up directly.

"That's right. Let's go. You go and do your business. I'll go and do mine. Why are you standing here?" With her hands on her hips, Bai Zhi looked at Otto's helpless look and didn't care at all.

He has nothing to do with me.

"Well, Sister Bai Zhi, sweet dreams." Otto said slowly as he looked up at the moon above his head.

"Well, you also have good dreams. Remember to sleep. Although your body will not be tired, the mental fatigue cannot be eliminated." Looking at Otto, Bai Zhi could tell at a glance that Otto was definitely a good guy. Haven't slept in days.

"okay, I get it."

Sister Bai Zhi is still so verbose.

Chapter 535: Time will bring her growth

"Teacher Ragnar! Look at the doll I made! It's for you!" The children gathered around the woman with burgundy eyes and told her what they had encountered and what they had learned. How was life during this period.

"Really? Thank you, it's very nice." Crouching down, Ragnar took the doll which looked a little strange, but was made with care, with a sincere smile on his face.

That smile was not a fake smile, but truly from the heart.

"Teacher Ragnar..." A girl's voice came from behind, and Ragnar felt his clothes being tugged.

"What's wrong? Bianca?" Looking back, Ragna realized that the person calling her was Bianca.

Although she was the one who brought her back to Destiny from the snowy mountains, Ragna didn't know that the girl in front of him was Kiana, who was brought back to Destiny by her.

"I, I want to ask you to teach me how to make a doll..." She said hesitantly, Bianca just wanted to learn how to make a little doll.

"Are you going to give it to Teacher Fuling?" Although Ragnar didn't know Fuling's true identity, she called Fuling "teacher" because Fuling worked as a counselor in the orphanage like her.

"Um...is that okay?" There was no denying it. Everyone in the orphanage knew how dependent she was on Poria cocos.

"Of course, but we have to take it slow, okay?" Said softly, Ragna raised his head and looked at Poria, who was watering the flowers not far away.

"Yeah!" Bianca looked very happy after getting the affirmative answer. Ragnar looked at her and smiled unconsciously.

Bianca is very well-behaved and smart. Although she is a bit stubborn in some aspects, she is a good child.

So Ragna sometimes couldn't understand, since Poria stayed here because of Bianca, why didn't she just adopt Bianca?

Ragna couldn't figure it out, and in the end he could only attribute everything to Fu Ling's personal reasons.

As for what Fu Ling tutored the children in the orphanage...

Fu Ling can teach almost everything. Fu Ling is simply a walking encyclopedia. Ragna couldn't figure out many questions after thinking about them for a long time, but Fu Ling understood them just by looking at them.

Not like an ordinary person at all...

Perhaps Ragna looked at Fuling too obviously. Fuling put down the shower in her hand, turned to look at Ragna, and nodded in a friendly manner.

Seeing Poria's gentle look, Ragnar nodded in response.

She must have been overthinking it, or maybe it was a scientist who had retired somewhere...

Ragnar shook his head and denied his thoughts.

Fu Ling's face is so deceptive. No one looking at her face would think that Fu Ling is a villain.

Seeing Ragnar lower his head and continue talking to the children, Fuling didn't pay attention to Ragnar's probing gaze just now.

It is normal to worry about her as an unknown person. Ragna and the dean here only know her as someone from the Destiny Headquarters, and her identity is more important.

Moreover, Ragnar also knew something about Otto's style, so he was even more worried about the children in the orphanage.

I have to say, he is a very friendly person.

Not paying attention to Ragna's gaze just now, Fuling slowly arranged the flower stand in front of her, as if everything happening around her had nothing to do with her.

"By the way, Bianca said she wanted to hear a story tonight. What story should I tell her..."

————————————————————————

"Teacher Ragnar, are there really those scary monsters outside?" Listening to Ragnar's story, a girl raised her hand and asked with some fear.

"Yes, there really are, but you don't have to be afraid, the teacher is the superman who can destroy them!" Ragna said exaggeratedly, raising his arms to show his muscles that were not even stronger than his own.

"Teacher Ragnar is so awesome! When I grow up, I want to be like Mr. Ragnar!"

"Really? Then you have to work hard."

Sitting aside, Bianca listened to Ragnar's words, holding her knees with her hands.

She also heard the stories of General Ragnar. Unlike other children, she heard Ragnar's hidden cruelty.

If there really are such monsters, then the people who fight against them must have made great sacrifices, right?

Looking at Ragna with piercing eyes, Bianca had already guessed part of the truth hidden by Ragna.

"Have you finished listening to the story? Let's have some snacks." While Bianca was thinking wildly, Poria came over with a plate of desserts and milk tea, and placed the plate on the table in the yard.

"Okay! It's the dessert made by Teacher Fuling!" I don't know which child discovered it first. The children seemed to have a unified purpose and rushed to the table with desserts. Bianca tossed it aside.

"Teacher Poria, the desserts you made are still so attractive." Looking at the children who were gone in an instant, Ragnar scratched his head and said slowly.

"Well, children all like to eat sweets." Holding a small cake in her hand, Fuling walked up to Bianca who was still in a daze, put the small cake in her hand and shook it in front of Bianca's eyes.

"Ah, Sister Fuling..." Bianca, who finally came to her senses, looked at Fuling sitting next to her and blinked her eyes.

"What are you thinking about? Why don't you respond to your favorite cake?" Looking at Bianca who came to her senses, Fuling handed the cake to her hand and took out a small spoon like a magic trick.

"I was just thinking about the story Teacher Ragnar just told." Taking the small spoon, Bianca took a spoonful of cake and put it into her mouth.

Feeling the sweet taste blooming on her taste buds, Bianca felt that her mood became better.

Sweets can make people feel better. This is what someone said to Poria a long time ago.

"Does Bianca also want to be the hero who fights monsters in Mr. Ragnar's story?" Fu Ling asked calmly, not expecting Bianca to give her an accurate answer now.

"I...I don't know." Pursing her lips, Bianca didn't know if she wanted to be that person.

"Why do the heroes in the story risk everything to fight against monsters? Why do they have to fight even if they sacrifice themselves?" At this point, Bianca raised her head and looked at Fuling.
