"Of course, if you are still worried, Mr. Xia Yuan, I can explain it to Bronya in person."
The misunderstanding between the two seemed to have deepened. Perhaps it was Mei's encouragement that gave Xia Yuan a little confidence. He raised his head and mustered up the courage to look directly at her, "Then... Mei, I like you!"
Aunt Mei was stunned for a moment by the other party's words that sounded like a confession.
It was true that she wanted Mr. Xia Yuan to stop suppressing his emotions, but that wasn't the way to do it. At least give her some time to prepare... Mei played with her hair by her ears, not knowing how to respond.
"Xia, Mr. Xia Yuan, are you serious?"
But Xia Yuan's next words made Meiyi feel relieved, but she also felt a sense of loss for some unknown reason.
"Of course it's true. I like Mei as much as Bronya does, so Mei, can you fulfill the promise you made before? Let me hug you, that kind of hug you in my arms~"
Looking at Xia Yuan's open arms and arms, and his extremely pure expression without any distractions, Mei felt that she seemed to have misunderstood the meaning of his words. It seemed that Mr. Xia Yuan just subconsciously wanted to fulfill his unfulfilled wish.
Thinking of this, Mei slowly turned around and squatted down.
In this case, she must of course fulfill her promise and help Mr. Xia Yuan realize his wish, but in a different way.
After a while——
"Mei, you're clearly breaking the rules. How can you hug someone like this?"
Aunt Mei carried the bag named [Xia Yuan] on her back, and asked with a hint of teasing and laughter in her voice: "How is it... Mr. Xia Yuan, are you very happy at this moment when your wish came true?"
“Not happy at all!
"How can there be someone like you, Meiyi? You have completely changed the concept. It doesn't feel like I'm hugging you at all when I carry you on my back!"
Xia Yuan hugged Mei's shoulders tightly and sulked alone.
"Hehe~ But Mr. Xia Yuan, aren't you hugging me from behind now? In a sense, I am in your arms, Mr. Xia Yuan now." Mei continued to joke.
"Mei, you're still laughing. It's obvious that I'm being carried behind you, Mei, and I'm ignoring you!"
"Okay, okay, Mei knows she's wrong. After I solve the problem of the Ruler of Rule and recover, I'll let you, Mr. Xia Yuan, hug me as much as you want, okay?"
Mei comforted the other person whose thinking ability had dropped to the same level as that of Idiot Bug, and at the same time looked towards the sewer entrance in the city in front of her. Mr. Xia Yuan's wound had been treated, and it was time to reunite with little Grayshu who was still in the city.
He witnessed Mei holding himself and stepping into the dark and deep sewer entrance.
tick-tock-
As rainwater seeped and dripped from the pipe above, Xia Yuan felt a slight chill in his heart, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter.
"Mei....can we take another route?
"It's dark and damp here, and I always feel like something bad will happen if I go deeper."
But Mei did not stop, and continued to move forward into the depths of the sewer, into the center of the city, with the water soaking her ankles...
On the way deeper, Mei explained:
"Mr. Xia Yuan, little Grayshu mentioned to me that the Ruler of Domination is likely to have merged with the power of the Ruler of Corrosion.
"I have confirmed this through special communication channels. The entire city's network has been completely blocked. If we blatantly step into the city, we will most likely be detected by the other party the moment we enter the city."
Sudden--
Xia Yuan seemed to hear a very strange creaking sound.
He poked Mei's soft and hot cheek and whispered in her ear: "Mei, listen... There seems to be someone else besides us at the corner ahead. I seem to hear a strange sound of stepping on the water."
Mei held her breath and listened carefully.
Tread-tap-
It seemed that someone was approaching her and Mr. Xia Yuan at the corner of the sewer, and judging from the footsteps, there was more than one person.
In this city now occupied by the Ruler of Domination, groups of people still appear in the sewers during such heavy rain. If they are not the maintenance personnel in the city, they must be puppets controlled by the other party.
creak creak-
The sound of joints moving was getting closer and closer, accompanied by a sound that Xia Yuan felt was extremely familiar. At the same time... Mei slowly grasped her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist and was ready to go.
[Why are we sent to search the sewers while the others are staying in the Domination Theater or wandering around the city? I also want to celebrate Halloween.]
[You, stop complaining. Since Mei Raiden is running towards the city with her big brother, and other individuals and surveillance cameras in the city have not captured Mei Raiden's figure, then there is only one way for her to go. ]
[But even if we can find Raiden Mei, can we catch her with just a few of us? Isn't this clearly using us as cannon fodder? ]
[The reason why Mei Raiden escaped means that now that she is no longer the Herrscher of Thunder, she no longer has the ability to fight us head-on. As long as the opponent appears, we will immediately synchronize with other individuals, which will be a great achievement.]
[A great achievement? Then...I want to be the first to enjoy Big Brother, no one is allowed to snatch it from me~]
After hearing the individual conversations between the Rulers of Rule, Mei slowly put away her sword. This was a problem. If she couldn't get rid of them at the same time, they would synchronize with the individuals in other cities, and her and Mr. Xia Yuan's locations would be exposed.
It seems that I can only hide... and not make any noise.
"Hmm~"
But the sound of the breath blowing into her earlobes made Mei's body, which had become extremely sensitive due to the influence of the drug, hum uncontrollably. And in the sewer, this humming sound seemed particularly melodious, echoing around the pipe and even reaching deep inside.
[Did you hear that? There seemed to be some sound.]
[Maybe it's Raiden Mei and big brother, let's go and see, I can't wait to meet big brother. ]
[Heh, maybe someone couldn't control their physical desires, and wanted to see the big brother so much that they got too excited? ]
Chapter 453: It can still go in if you push it in~
[You! Forget it, I don't want to argue with you, but you definitely won't get any of Big Brother's candy when the time comes!]
[Stop arguing, don't you guys hear the sound? 】
One of the Rulers of Domination pointed to the other side of the corner ahead, as if there was some movement coming from that side just now.
[Hmph, what are you afraid of? I'll take the lead, and you cowards just follow me. If it's Mei Raiden and big brother, I'll be the first to go, and none of you are allowed to snatch it from me! ]
"Oh no, we're going to be discovered..."
Just at this critical moment, she was noticed by the other party and could no longer make similar sounds. Mei quickly closed her lips and quietly retreated to the edge of the wall with Xia Yuan on her back, sticking close to the wall and not daring to make any sound.
"Huhuhu~"
But the air that Mr. Xia Yuan exhaled towards her earlobe caused ripples in Meiyi's heart.
She wanted to remind Mr. Xia Yuan behind her to stay a little further away from her ear, but the footsteps at the corner were constantly conveying one fact: the puppet controlled by the Ruler of Rule was about to meet her and Mr. Xia Yuan.
"It's too late... I can only take a gamble."
Mei pursed her lips slightly and closed her legs to ease the strange feeling in front of her earlobe. She could only hope that the darkness around her could hide her and Mr. Xia Yuan's figures. Now it seemed that her bet was right, as the other party did not notice her clinging to the wall.
[What's around the corner? Have you spotted Mei and her big brother? ]
[Not to mention Raiden Mei, not even a mouse was found. The dark passage was probably just water seeping from the pipes above to the bottom. Sigh, it was terrible.]
【Who made that noise just now? 】
[Could it be that you missed your big brother so much that you lost yourself and couldn't help but yell? Humph, you are so shameless! ]
[Maybe someone is just crying thief and shouting it out~]
[Everyone calm down, continue searching for Raiden Mei and her big brother. They must be in the city's sewers. Wait for the additional personnel to arrive and guard the entrance and exit of the sewers. By then, Raiden Mei will not be able to escape the encirclement we have set up.]
Although the individuals of the Ruler of Rule were bickering with each other, they all had only one goal.
[Find the whereabouts of Raiden Mei and her older brother]
They patrolled in groups, turning the corner and moving forward. If the Ruler of Laws lady could search the surroundings carefully, she might find two pairs of bright eyes at the corner watching them leave.
Thump thump thump——
Xia Yuan's heartbeat was particularly clear in the quiet sewer, and Mei... held her breath and listened carefully to the movements outside. As the footsteps of the Ruler Lady gradually faded away, Mei slowly walked out with Xia Yuan after confirming that she would not return.
"Mr. Xia Yuan, we have to hurry and leave here." Mei said in a low voice.
If we continue to delay, when the thousand collective bodies of the Rulers of Rule occupy all the sewer exits in the city, once they are discovered by any individual, there will be no way for us to reunite with little Grayshu.
Xia Yuan nodded. He understood that the current situation was not optimistic.
He and Mei must find a way to escape from here as soon as possible, otherwise what will be waiting for them will be countless puppets of the Ruler Lady. The urgent atmosphere made Xia Yuan's breathing become rapid, "Then Mei, let's leave as soon as possible."
But the sudden exhalation made Aunt Mei close her legs again.
"Okay... okay, but Mr. Xia Yuan, can you please stop breathing into my earlobes? This will make me make strange noises. If I encounter a puppet sent by the Ruler of Rule again, the noise I just made will most likely be detected by the other party."
"Sorry, but the noise you made just now was really cute, Mei."
"Cute and such..." In the darkness, Mei's cheeks flushed. The word cute was not suitable for her current age, but there was no time to correct Mr. Xia Yuan's thoughts.
In order to avoid being discovered by the puppets sent by the Ruler of Domination, Mei carried Xia Yuan on her back and carefully moved deeper along the criss-crossing pipes around her. However, when she came to a suspected crossroads, she found that except for the passage she came from, the other three passages were guarded by puppets and patrolling imaginary creatures.
Looking at the situation in front of her, Mei's heart sank.
"What should we do, Mei? All three entrances are guarded by the Lady Ruler. It seems we can't get through. How about we go back the way we came to see if there are other passages?" Xia Yuan asked softly.
She couldn't deal with the enemies at the three forks in the road at the same time. Even if she could, she would probably expose her and Mr. Xia Yuan's locations immediately. But if she returned along the same route, she would be further and further away from the city center and would most likely encounter the puppets that were patrolling just now.
Mei realized that she had to come up with a solution as soon as possible, otherwise she and Mr. Xia Yuan would never be able to escape.
suddenly.....
She accidentally glanced at the ventilation duct on the side of her.
"Mr. Xia Yuan, maybe we can try to leave here through the ventilation duct."
Mei pointed to the ventilation duct on the side of the wall, but when Xia Yuan saw the entrance of the duct, he estimated the size of the entrance and suddenly hesitated. He could curl up and get in, but what about Mei?
Looking at the other person's shirt that was about to come out and even burst, could such a narrow ventilation duct entrance really accommodate him?
"Mei, I should be fine, but the entrance is a little too narrow. I'm worried that you might not be able to get in..."
Mei raised her head and carefully observed the entrance of the ventilation duct on one side. It was indeed as Mr. Xia Yuan said.
The entrance is very small and the space is limited.
But if we squeezed in, it shouldn't be a big problem, right? Mei held up her shirt, which was soaked by the rain and became heavy, with her hands. A blush appeared on her face, and for a moment she lost her confidence. It was several times larger than the entrance of the ventilation duct.
Should I control my weight in the future? If it was the old Bronya, she might be able to get in easily.
"No, it's okay, Mr. Xia Yuan. We should be able to get in if we squeeze in."
If she really couldn't get in, she had a second plan. At least to save Mr. Xia Yuan, she would go and lure away the Ruler of Domination.
Chapter 454 Aunt Mei, you should lose weight!
Thinking of this, Mei turned around and looked at the person who had already stepped down from her back and said:
"Mr. Xia Yuan, please go in first. I will follow you soon."
Mei's voice echoed in the quiet sewer. She raised her knife and easily cut open the grille in front of the ventilation duct, motioning Xia Yuan to go in first. Her eyes were full of firmness and determination, as if she was ready for everything.
Xia Yuan looked at her, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
He understood that Mei was most likely trying to get him to leave first and attract the attention of the Ruler Lady alone so that he would have a chance to escape. However, he didn't want to do that. He didn't want to see Mei face danger alone, and he didn't want her to be in trouble.
"No, Mei, you go in first, and I will follow you. If you don't go in, I won't go in either. If you want to leave, let's go together. In short, I will never leave you here alone, Mei, never!"
"Mr. Xia Yuan..."
Xia Yuan's words made Meiyi feel warm in her heart. Looking at his determined expression and seeing that she could not convince him, she had no choice but to compromise. She squatted down, put her hands on the entrance of the ventilation duct and prepared to enter first.
however--
Just when Mei was about to take action, she found that [climbing in] was much more difficult than she had imagined. Her collar was stuck under the edge of the ventilation duct and she couldn't move at all. Mei tried to grab her hands on the inside of the ventilation duct and push herself in...
But as soon as she exerted force, the friction between the shirt and the ventilation duct caused Meiyi to almost lose her ability to move due to the influence of the residual drugs in her body. Her whole body was limp and stuck in front of the entrance of the ventilation duct, unable to move.
"Hmm~"
If she relied on herself to feel the strange sensation caused by the friction with the edge of the pipe...it would be difficult to get into such a narrow ventilation duct. She needed help, at least she needed Mr. Xia Yuan to push her from behind.
While Mei was trying to get into the ventilation duct, Xia Yuan, who was wandering on the side, was not idle either. While keeping watch for Mei, he was also monitoring the situations at other forks in the road. Once Miss Ruler of Herrscher took any action, he would immediately remind Mei.
creak-
But suddenly, from the deep sewer behind him, there came faint sounds of footsteps and crackling of joints.
That sound reached Xia Yuan's ears. Judging from the location of the echo, it did not seem to come from the three forked roads in front, but from the direction he and Mei came from. The sound was clear and strong, and it could not be ignored.
This made Xia Yuan realize one thing, that he and Mei were being attacked from both sides by the Lady of the Ruler.
The area around here is not as dim as the corner just now. The light from outside the city penetrates through the gaps in the ventilation ducts and falls on the ground to form mottled light and shadows. In such an environment, there is no place to hide at all.
