Thanks for the invitation. I am a parasite in Terra.

, Doctor, your tongue should have gotten used to the taste of this stuff a long time ago. Although the version made by the crude equipment now is a little more disgusting than what you drank before, the effect is still a little worse, so it must be made into a concentrated liquid like a viscous substance - but it is better than what you drank some time ago. '

"At least we have a pot and a fire now. We didn't even have a fire when we were in the marching tent before."

"March....Tents...?"

The doctor suddenly froze in place, as if the fragments of his past memories were triggered at some point, and the wavelengths of sound and images gradually became clear around him...

Suddenly, he found that the walls around him were no longer solid, well-decorated concrete walls, but rough, patched-up edges of the tent.

"Doctor--Kelsey asked me to give this to you~"

A gentle voice sounded in my ears. I turned around and saw a Sarkaz woman with a blurry face walking towards me with a cup of liquid of indescribable color, which even had some impurities floating on it.

"This is... Sanity Liquid..."

"Yes, I'm sorry, Doctor, the conditions are not good, I can only do this much..."

"...If the effect is not good, forget it. It's okay not to drink it."

"No."

His shoulders seemed to be held down, and the Sarkaz woman came close to him and spoke in a somewhat tough tone.

"Kal'tsit said, Doctor, you need to drink this to regain your sanity. If you don't want to drink it, please go and rest. I'm sure even you can't give the right instructions in this situation, right?"

“Rest... Theresa, I hope you didn’t make this... sanity liquid like this on purpose to make me rest.”

"Oh, did you see that, Doctor? In that case—"

“Gulp…Gulp…”

"Eh?! Doctor?"

"The technique is wrong. There are several steps in the processing of the ingredients that are incorrect. Not only does it fail to extract the refreshing effect, but it also further increases the side effect of the taste..."

The doctor put down the cup that she had drunk up in one gulp, and then even her expression was made a little hideous by the liquid.

"I'm sorry... I thought you were going to back out just by smelling the smell."

Theresa turned her head away and answered with a guilty look on her face.

"...Okay, I do need to rest...after I get rid of the rest of the supply inventory forms."

Just as the doctor was about to sit down and continue, the Sarkaz woman grabbed her arm, and the latter smiled with joy when she heard that she wanted to take a rest.

"It's okay, Doctor, you can go and rest now."

"But the information..."

"Just leave it to Kal'tsit. Doctor, you seem to be worried about her. In fact, Kal'tsit can handle these things by herself. Trust her a little more."

The doctor looked at Theresa's smile, hesitated for a moment, and then said to himself that Kal'tsit was not very good at dealing with such things...

However, at this moment, looking at the other person's smile, she did not refuse after all.

Click.

The reappearance of the past did not last long, and the picture of memory once again shattered in his eyes and turned into dust and dissipated.

The doctor turned back blankly and looked around. A pungent smell entered her nostrils, bringing her consciousness back to reality.

"Ahem...wait, was that...a memory?"

"You saw it."

"......Yeah...and...very clear..."

The evil spirit seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then answered as if he had talked for a moment.

"Really?... About Terry..."

“Absolutely not!!!”

In an instant, the doctor completely took away control of her body. She huddled in a corner with her hands crossed in a gesture of rejection.

"I just remembered how disgusting the thing you cooked tasted!!! It makes me tremble just thinking about it!! I will never drink that stuff!!"

".....Huh, I see. But I didn't force you to drink it."

The evil spirit replied, half-projecting her body into the Doctor's sight.

The latter was stunned and found that the evil spirit in front of him seemed... to become a little unreal.

"What’s wrong with you...."

'In fact, I'm disappearing.'

"what?!"

"It's a normal situation. In essence, I am just a memory. From the moment you open your eyes, I will begin the countdown to disappearance."

"If you hadn't asked me for help, or if I hadn't regretted it, I might have stayed in that little dark room for a little longer."

"Then...how could you...no, disappear or something, that's too..."

The doctor choked up for a moment. This voice that had been in her ears since the moment she woke up... was going to disappear?

'Actually, that's a good thing.'

'According to the original plan, the moment you woke up, I should have completely disappeared from this land along with your past.'

'It's just.... Oh, there are some

I have survived until now.'

"Let's get back to the point. After all, I have already changed my mind... Doctor, it is obvious that the situation has changed from what I had originally envisioned. If we continue to follow the same path as before, I will not be able to keep up with the situation."

'So, I prepared this.'

The evil spirit pointed to the simplified version of sanity liquid that was brewing.

"Your situation is very special. Taking the Sanity Fluid in this situation will produce some special effects. If my speculation is correct—"

She raised her hand, showing three fingers.

"Three tubes of regular sanity fluid will strengthen your thinking. At the same time, in this state, it can do more than just refresh your mind... maybe it can even enhance your thinking efficiency."

"But the price is... I will probably be consumed from your brain faster."

"....I see."

The doctor looked at the rational fluid, then turned to look at the evil spirit beside him, and nodded solemnly for a moment.

'very good. ’

"Well, evil spirit, I want to know one more thing."

The doctor looked at his own reflection in the liquid in the pot.

'You ask. '

"Who is Theresa? Where is she? Is she still alive?"

There seemed to be a pause before the doctor finally asked the question that the evil spirit had initially thought of.

'I don't actually plan to tell you too much about the past. After all, it will have some bad effects on you... But do you really want to know?'

"I think...at least...I want to know who Theresa...is."

"At least, let me know that she is alone..."

"Theresa is dead."

"Ugh?"

"already......."

"But, she is not an ordinary Sarkaz. If it is Zuo Jian, perhaps his special ability can help her."

"What's the meaning..."

"It's just a guess, but maybe in Londinium, you might actually be involved in something like this..."

'Oh, I almost forgot.'

The evil spirit suddenly slapped his head and showed a troubled expression.

'If you leave Victoria and meet a Sarkaz mercenary with short white hair, red horns, codenamed W anywhere... don't get involved with her. Even if you do, don't tell her you are a doctor.'

Chapter 79, Studying at Columbia University.jpg

call.......

After a day of running around, Zuo Jian lay on the bed. After a long time, even this body felt a little tired.

Turning my head, I looked at the two moons hanging in the sky above the neon lights outside the window.

The view is framed by glass windows decorated with lightweight steel.

If the moon was not so different from his memory, the current scenery would even make him doubt whether he had not traveled to the so-called different world.

.....Well, not really.

The moonlight in his sight was obscured, and the darkness beside the window suddenly appeared beside him.

A pair of eyes like red crystals appeared beside the bed and stared at him motionlessly.

"stare......"

"Hey...if you want to come up, just come up, don't pull at the bed board."

As if there was no other way, Zuo Jian moved his body to make room for Laurentina.

But then again, when we chose this place as our base, we specifically looked for a place with three bedrooms, but in the end, Laurentina never slept in her own room once...

"Humph--"

However, when Laurentina was lying next to Zuo Jian, she still pretended to be angry and ignored him.

However, at this moment, Zuo Jian just touched the former's little head, smoothed her hair, then closed his eyes and chose to enter the dream... or in other words... go to another body.

Today is a busy day, and there is no time to spare.

Especially...when there are still a lot of things to deal with.

Closing his eyes, when he chose to sink his consciousness, it was as if his whole body was suddenly thrown into the sea.

Wait until the gloom and darkness once again envelop me.

Far away in a hotel in Colombia, the deep pupils buried under the McDonald's paper bag opened their eyes again.

The view is projected through the two holes around the hotel room.

It was pitch black outside the window, but the traces in the room indicated that a girl had just gotten up.

The sound of water gradually came from the bathroom. Zuo Jian turned his head away, then controlled his body and slowly stood up from the corner.

After moving around a bit, Zuojian walked towards the bathroom.

Through the open door frame, he saw a young Filin standing on tiptoe on a small stool that had been moved to the edge of the sink, struggling to put his hands on the towel inside.

“So cold…”

Narcissa looked at the towel wet with cold water with some discomfort. She knew that there was a handle on it that could be used to get hot water, but the unreasonable settings of this hotel obviously made it difficult for her to reach the handle that could get hot water.

After hesitating for a moment, she looked at the towel floating in the cold water pool, then reached out to pick it up and

Prepare to apply on face——

However, the next moment, a hand stopped her. She looked up and found that a familiar paper bag had appeared behind her. Then, Zuo Jian's hoarse voice came from behind her.

"Very good, it seems that you have learned how to use your subjectivity to organize your image as my cadre, but..."

Zuo Jian smiled, then raised his hand and hugged Narcissa, moving her down from the small stool. At the same time, he drained the water in the sink and pressed the handle for hot water.

"I don't like my subordinates to be subjective. You just need to wait for my orders and execute them. Do you understand?"

"Oh."

Narcissa stood aside and nodded obediently.

After letting out a satisfied laugh, Zuo Jian soaked the towel in hot water, wrung out the water, and then squatted in front of Narcissa with it.

"Well, listen up and put your face closer."

Xiao Feilin walked forward obediently, then watched Zuo Jian start rubbing her face with a towel.
