Honkai Impact, please stop imagining it.

It's as absurd as the common online claim that boys all go through a molting period.

"Two stomachs can't hold that much food. Okay, help me chop some scallions. I'll give the fish a massage. You're steaming the fish, right?"

"Yes! I originally wanted to eat fish stewed in tomato broth, but it seemed like too much trouble. Since you have guests, I won't bother you. How about that? Am I being a good boy or not?"

Lin Yu: "Super well-behaved."

Lin Yu gave Cang Xuan a thumbs-up and exclaimed in admiration.

Cang Xuan: "I've heard you can cook, but I haven't tasted your cooking yet. You'd better cook well this time."

Cang Xuan patted Lin Yu on the back like a little adult and helped Lin Yu chop scallions.

Lin Yu and Cang Xuan spent more than half an hour in the kitchen preparing the steamed fish. Once it was ready, a sumptuous lunch was prepared.

Cangxuan Danzhu brought over five dishes from the cafeteria, and the four of them ate six dishes, which was quite enjoyable.

Cang Xuan Dan Zhu lay on the sofa, clutching her stomach, with a blissful expression on her face. "We should have come looking for you a long time ago."

Cang Xuan said this, and Lin Yu was at a loss.

"Even if you had contacted me earlier, I wouldn't have cooked for you every day."

"We're friends, aren't we?"

Cang Xuan, clutching his stomach, watched Lin Yu clear the table, his eyes flickering.

"Just as the rabbit said, Lin Yu, you won't refuse our request."

Danzhu helped Lin Yu tidy up the table, her eyes filled with excitement.

"No, I'll do it if it's just something I can help you with incidentally, but I'll hesitate if I'm specifically asked to do something."

"Oh, why is that? I thought you would agree to anything we asked."

Hua watched as Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu caused trouble. Despite being Australia's most renowned quantum physics professors, they acted like two children, while Lin Yu and himself, both underage, seemed more like adults.

Is it an illusion?

Hua took out two candies from her pocket and handed them to Cangxuan Danzhu.

Cang Xuan Dan Zhu happily accepted it, opened it, and ate it.

"We'll come again tomorrow at noon. We'll bring our own ingredients. Lin Yu, you can be our cook."

"It's okay once in a while, but don't push your luck, you two."

Lin Yu rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Sure enough, those two are no different from little kids, damn it."

It's just that it's slightly stronger in quantum physics.

After seeing Cangxuan Danzhu off and Hua returned home, Lin Yu went to the Institute of Biology for a medical check-up.

The physical examination process was the same as before, except that blood was no longer drawn. The test results were also as consistent as ever, steadily declining, very stable.

He also made a prank call to Kevin, and only after hearing Kevin's voice sounding like he'd been disturbed from his afternoon nap did Lin Yu hang up, satisfied.

Sitting on a garden bench in the biological research institute, Lin Yu listened to Kevin's tired voice and hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Mei walked up behind him and asked, "Should we call Kevin again?"

"Yes, who else can I call besides him?"

"You should have come for your check-up this morning, why did you wait until the afternoon today?"

It wasn't a question, just a casual chat. Mei climbed over the back of the bench and sat down next to Lin Yu. Her white coat had more bloodstains than before, probably because she had surgery that morning.

"I went fishing this morning, but unfortunately I only caught two small fish, and they died. However, Hua caught a lot of fish, and she released them all."

Lin Yu turned to Mei and said, "It's so strange. When I was fishing with Hua, I felt completely outmatched in fishing when I watched her catch fish. But when I was chatting with you, I didn't feel outmatched in biology. Does that mean that if the gap is too big, people can't recognize their own identity and situation?"

Mei: "........That was all because I deliberately accommodated you, it's not worth mentioning."

"what?"

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

understood.

"And we haven't talked much about work-related matters either."

Mei tossed her hair and looked up at the sky.

"The main problem is that I wouldn't understand what you were saying, haha."

Lin Yu chuckled dryly and said nonchalantly.

........

Mebius leaned against the window, watching Lin Yu and Mei chatting together in the garden outside, his chin resting on his hand as he frowned in thought.

"You said all the comics you showed me had male protagonists who only chose one female protagonist. If it weren't for the female protagonist, wouldn't the two of us lying here looking like villains?"

Möbius turned to Klein, "And I've never seen a book where the female protagonist is a researcher with blood on her hands."

Klein adjusted his glasses, closed the romance comic book, and sighed.

These days, she's been using the excuse of helping Mebius win over Lin Yu to openly read comics and slack off, but it seems she can't use that excuse anymore.

Did Dr. Möbius discover the clues in just a few days?

"Everyone is the protagonist of their own life, Dr. Mebius. If life is like a book, I don't think you are not the heroine."

Mebius: "It was definitely a mistake to bring Mei over. I can study Curious Mela by myself. Bringing Mei over was just to help me speed things up, and she almost stole Lin Yu away from me."

And it's unbelievable, my favorability rating hasn't even been raised yet, and Mei has already surpassed me. Since Mei arrived, Lin Yu hasn't sat down and chatted with me alone more than a few times.

Möbius squeezed the candy in his pocket, took it out, and handed it to Klein. "This is today's candy. Give it to Lin Yu for me."

Möbius went to do his research, and Klein ordered a pork knuckle rice dish for Mei. The cafeteria staff delivered the food to Mei in less than five minutes.

This also interrupted Lin Yu and Mei's conversation. Mei didn't notice anything wrong and just thought that Möbius was urging her to eat and get back to work. She said goodbye to Lin Yu and went back to Möbius's research institute.

After sitting in the garden for a while, Lin Yu was about to leave when a piece of unwrapped candy was handed to him from behind and placed near his mouth.

Lin Yu hesitated for a moment, then ate it in one gulp before turning around to look.

Wearing a white lab coat, Klein stood on tiptoe, put his hands in his pockets, and leaned forward, trying to look like an adult. "So, how does today's candy taste?"

Lin Yu: "......I thought it was Möbius."

Klein shrugged. "Come on, it's always me who delivers this kind of thing to you. But whatever, Dr. Möbius did ask me to give it to you."

Lin Yu knew without a doubt that Mebius had taken the candy from Himeko's logistics department and had Klein deliver it to him. It was absurd that a single piece of candy went through four steps before finally reaching his mouth.

Chapter 76 Sister Aili, you're here!

Klein sighed helplessly.

"There's nothing I can do; you know Dr. Mebius's personality."

Seeing Lin Yu's exasperated expression, she understood what he was thinking.

"Is Mebius very busy lately?"

Lin Yu asked, chewing on a piece of candy.

"It's alright, it's just that I've recently become obsessed with romance comics, I'm quite engrossed in them."

Klein adjusted his glasses and said with a mysterious expression.

"Huh? Romance comics? She reads these?"

Lin Yu was speechless. When did this guy start liking this kind of thing?

"It's all because of someone..."

Klein rolled her eyes at Lin Yu and gave him a knowing look that said, "You'll have to figure it out yourself."

"If you're saying it's because of me, then why did she come to find me herself?"

Lin Yu made a swallowing sound as he swallowed the sugar water, looking at Klein with disbelief.

"Sigh, it seems you still don't quite understand Dr. Möbius. The more she wants to do something, the more she keeps it to herself."

Klein patted Lin Yu on the shoulder as she spoke, watching him chew the candy with relish.

Lin Yu glanced at Klein, wondering if he didn't understand Möbius.

That was a huge joke. He guessed that Mebius must have seen what happened between him and Mei, and that's why he was jealous.

This trick was nothing to him; it was something he could easily see through.

However, he couldn't help but picture Möbius alone in his laboratory, angrily mixing together various research materials.

The fact that he sent Klein to deliver candy to him shows that Möbius was probably already extremely jealous.

"Hehe, Klein, where is Mebius now?"

Now that he knew Mebius was jealous, Lin Yu had to go and coax him, otherwise the Chimera research project couldn't be delayed.

Given Möbius's temperament, if he were to strike, both he and Mei would be left helpless.

"I don't know... Don't ask me..."

Klein crossed her arms, turned her face away, and acted as if it had nothing to do with her.

"Alright, alright, even if you don't say it, I can guess most of it. Judging from your outfit and the smell of various research drugs from the lab, Möbius probably has nowhere else to go but to stay in her lab and sulk, right?"

Lin Yu smiled slyly, as if everything was under his control.

"No, no, she went home to rest today and didn't come to work."

Klein's expression changed, and he quickly defended his Dr. Mebius.

"Not here? Then where did you get this candy from?"

Lin Yu immediately found the loophole in Klein's words, and a wicked smile appeared on his lips.

"Uh... she mailed it to me from home."

Klein forced an explanation.

"Alright, alright, I'm not going to joke around with you anymore. You can enjoy the scenery here. I'm going to find Möbius now."

Lin Yu waved his hand and walked into the research institute.
