Arknights, but all characters are NPCs?

"Can this "正" character on my leg be wiped off?"

... ... ...

... ...

...

"Good morning, Dr. Kelsey."

"Good morning, Kelsey."

"Doctor Kelsey, do you really not need to rest a little longer?"

After a simple wash, Kal'tsit changed her clothes and left the room.

Along the way, everyone Kal'tsit met greeted her enthusiastically, and even if Kal'tsit took the initiative to talk, the other party would still chat with her normally.

So Kal'tsit felt relieved, it seemed that she had really returned from the dream world.

But at this time, Kal'tsit thought that it would be better if these people were NPCs.

Because everyone who meets Kal'tsit will first look at her subtly before greeting her.

This includes——

"Good morning, Kal'tsit. Have you had breakfast?"

Theresa greeted Kal'tsit warmly like the lady next door.

In addition, Theresa happened to bring Amiya with her today, so the wifey flavor was even stronger.

It was just that Theresa, like everyone else, showed a subtle look after greeting her and asked curiously, "Kal'tsit...? Um... why are you wearing stockings today?"

Yes, Kal'tsit is still wearing her usual off-shoulder outfit today.

But for some reason, under that off-shoulder dress, Kal'tsit was wearing stockings on her legs, and they were black tights.

It's not that this kind of dress is not okay...

But Theresa remembered that Kal'tsit usually wore bare legs. Why did she suddenly have this idea today?

Kelsey: “…”

In response to Theresa's question, Kal'tsit immediately revealed an expression that was even more subtle than hers.

But in the end, Kal'tsit didn't explain.

After all, there is no way to explain it.

What do you mean? You mean the word "正" on my leg can't be erased?

And with the length of the hem of this off-shoulder dress, the word "正" is just half exposed, covering it but not completely?

In the end, you had no choice but to cover up your mistakes and put on a pair of stockings to deceive yourself?

“I’ll explain this later…”

Kal'tsit could only say this. She turned her head away and took a deep breath: "Where is the Doctor? Didn't I send a message before, asking you two to come together for a private meeting?"

"I don't know..." Theresa shook her head: "Do you need me to go find her?"

"... ..., no need, we can just wait here."

"Oh... okay."

Looking at Theresa who nodded in front of her and then stood beside her gently and obediently waiting with her, Kal'tsit couldn't help but recall what happened in the dream world.

5 years later... Theresa died...

So why is it that...

"Kelsey?"

"Ok?"

He looked up and found Theresa approaching him with a worried look on her face. "You don't look very well. Is that okay? Did you not get enough rest?"

"It's ok."

Kal'tsit shook her head, trying to stop herself from thinking too much, and turned her head to look at Amiya who was following Theresa.

Amiya seemed to have noticed Kal'tsit's gaze. She was a little at a loss, but she greeted Kal'tsit very obediently: "Um, um... Doctor Kal'tsit, good morning..."

"I didn't notice it before, but after seeing Amiya in the dream world, I always feel that you are so small now..." Kal'tsit said subconsciously.

Amiya: “Huh?”

009. The end of the foot odor bar has come!

Disperse the strangers and let Krusil take Amiya out to play.

In the end, only Kal'tsit, Theresa and the late-arriving Doctor were left gathered in the conference room.

The doctor was still dressed as the hooded man, with her face covered by a mask, so it was hard to tell what her expression was.

If the doctor hadn't taken some snacks out of his pocket from time to time, threw them into the mask, and then made chewing sounds, she would have looked quite intimidating.

Compared to the Doctor, Kal'tsit looked very serious.

Although usually Kal'tsit has a face like a kitten...

But since Kal'tsit said it was a private meeting, Theresa naturally would not laugh, but sat upright and listened to Kal'tsit's speech with a serious face.

Then, as she listened, Theresa's expression could no longer be suppressed.

Because Kal'tsit had almost nothing to hide, she told them both about the things in the dream world.

What NPC, what recovery from oripathy, what loss of power, even including——

"That man named Lu Shang used me as an experiment to verify whether the two worlds could interfere with each other."

"Although writing correct characters on my leg was probably just out of that man's bad taste."

"But if I only use my 4th orgasm, I can verify it——"

Kal'tsit talked freely.

Theresa was confused.

"Uh... that, ahem... Kal'tsit? Kal'tsit! Pause for a moment..."

Theresa felt uncomfortable all over after hearing this, as if W was crawling on her.

Although Theresa's real age has long exceeded three digits, even if someone tells dirty jokes in front of her, she will not blush like a young girl in her teens.

But the problem is...

Kal'tsit, at least don't say in a serious manner that someone wants to have sex with you and even writes a "yes" on your leg, while at the same time seriously talking about how many times you orgasmed in total.

Is this some kind of socially shameful play?

As long as you are not embarrassed, then we are the ones who are embarrassed, right?

"Ahem... Kal'tsit? As for these things... uh... well... Kal'tsit, you can just brush them aside or keep them from us, right?"

Kal'tsit, you are a girl after all...uh...a woman, at least care about yourself.

Theresa was already being very reserved.

But Kal'tsit just shook her head when she heard that: "That's not necessary. I don't care about this kind of thing."

Well, actually I still care about it.

Otherwise, Kal'tsit would not have wanted to die together with Lu Shang at that time.

However, Kal'tsit did not say this out loud. She just chose her words carefully: "The problem now is that I don't know if I am the only one who can travel to that dream world, or if you, Theresa, and the Doctor will also travel there one after another."

"If it's the latter, then I should at least explain it to you in advance, so that you two won't be confused and then be deceived by that man named Lu Shang. With my experience as a warning, you two can at least be on guard."

"And if it's the former, and I'm the only one who can travel through it—"

Having said this, Kal'tsit raised her head and looked at Theresa silently.

Theresa felt a little guilty when she was stared at, and subconsciously turned her eyes away: "I won't read your mind, Kal'tsit... maybe..."

Well, Theresa knew that too.

If Kal'tsit really chose to conceal it, and her mental condition was getting worse day by day, and even if she asked, Kal'tsit would just say that she was not allowed to intervene...

Then Theresa might really read Kal'tsit's mind to see where the problem lies.

If that's the case... then there's really no need for Kal'tsit to hide it...

"That's exactly the situation."

Kal'tsit didn't make things difficult for Theresa, and considerately changed the subject: "Because this is also my first time traveling to that dream world, and I am also confused. I told you these things, firstly to give you a shot in advance, and secondly to borrow your wisdom to discuss what that so-called dream world is."

As she spoke, Kal'tsit looked at Theresa and then at the Doctor.

The original intention was to let the two of them speak freely, but when looking at the Doctor, Kal'tsit frowned.

"Doc...? What are you looking at?"

"Look at the legs."

The doctor's voice is not as hoarse as it was five years ago, as if she had gone through some kind of voice change. Now, her voice is still clear and pleasant.

It's just...

Ever since Kal'tsit said that someone had written the word "正" on her leg, this scumbag has been bending over, tilting his head, looking left and right at Kal'tsit's thighs, as if he wanted to verify whether there were really words under Kal'tsit's black stockings.

Kelsey: “…”

Do you believe that I can take off your hood?

"Well...even if Kal'tsit wants us to discuss it, there is too little information."

In the end, It was Theresa who saved the situation. She forced the topic back: "Now we only know that the man named Lu Shang is the key to the dream world, right? But we know nothing else... So Kal'tsit, do you want to tell us more about Lu Shang?"

"That man..."

Kal'tsit reached out and forcibly straightened the doctor's head, then revealed a subtle expression and replied: "He has an extremely bad personality."

"Uh...other than that?"

"Nothing."

Really no more.

What else can Kal'tsit say?

She and Lu Shang had only been in contact for less than six hours in total, and she was bullied the entire time. What could she say?

Talk about how badly she was bullied?

Did she almost lose consciousness due to her high school?

It was said that when she was being corrected, that rude Lu Shang actually grabbed Amiya for the third time, and then forced Kal'tsit to orgasm under Amiya's gaze?

It's hard, the fist is hard.

Therefore, the atmosphere of the discussion suddenly became awkward.

But surprisingly, the doctor who had been staring at the black stockings and cat legs since just now, after adjusting the headgear that was pulled crooked, crossed his hands and looked thoughtful: "Lu Shang... this name..."

"Hmm? Doctor, do you recognize this name?"

"I don't know." The doctor shook his head and said, "But if you reverse the two characters and form 'Shanglu', then I know it."

"Lu Shang? Shang Lu?"

"Yes, remember the legend of Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs? The last herb Shennong tasted was Shanglu."
