On the way to becoming the strongest, I first became a popular person.

This is an empty ward, which is filled with many strange-shaped precision instruments, and intricate pipes of various colors are connected to the girl on the bed.

Her long black hair spread on the snow-white sheets, her eyes were closed, and her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow under her eyes, like a perched butterfly.

The expression on that exquisite face was serene and peaceful, like a sleeping god, waiting for fate to come and wake her up.

"Sister, can you do it? It's been a year, why doesn't she show any signs of waking up? Is your method really reliable?" A clear voice sounded in the room, and the complaining tone concealed a deep worry.

Ling Fei couldn't help but roll her eyes and said unhappily, "I told you there's no rush. Her situation is special. I did a full body check on her and the results showed that her genes were constantly collapsing. Logically, this would lead to her quick death, but there's a strange energy in her body that's been repairing her collapsed genes, and there's a delicate balance between the two. In this case, if I intervene, the balance will be disrupted, causing her genes to collapse and die instantly."

"According to my previous observations, her body can automatically absorb external energy and convert it into that strange energy to repair her own genes. So the only thing I can do now is to provide her with the energy her body needs."

"Then when will she wake up?"

"I don't know. Maybe she will wake up in the next second, or maybe she will never wake up. It all depends on her. Let fate take its course and let nature take its course."

"What's the difference between what you said and what you didn't say?" Ling Mu curled his lips, carefully held the girl's hand on the hospital bed, placed it in his palm, and gently stroked her soft, white and slender fingers.

It has been a year since the original assessment and he has graduated.

A lot of things happened in the Federation during this year.

The turmoil caused by the enchanting flower has long subsided, and the federal investigation has not yet been able to fully confirm the cause of its death. Some people only suspect that it may be related to the beta girl who showed up halfway, but the other party has been in a coma, and they have no way to confirm their thoughts, so the matter has been left unresolved.

As for those involved, after more than half a year of careful investigation, all the criminals were punished accordingly. Some accomplices with less serious crimes were deprived of their federal citizenship and escorted to the mining teams on the front line to give their last light and heat.

Those whose crimes were serious were directly sentenced to death by the court.

Among them, the former principal of Cassesely, Ter Lecter, was found by the Arbitration Hall to have abused his power for personal gain many times during his 27 years in office and secretly sought benefits for his family. This not only damaged a lot of federal interests but also seriously threatened the security of the federation. The circumstances were extremely bad.

He had been beheaded by Mr. "Hound" of the Judgment Hall on the beheading platform a month ago. The scene was broadcast live on the Star Network, causing a sensation in the four major galaxies.

And his family, the Lecter, one of the seven major families, was naturally dragged into the water. Congressman Lecter was even besieged by other congressmen in the Federal Parliament and fainted from anger.

In the end, their family paid a heavy price and gave up many of their core interests before the matter was finally settled. The family was also severely damaged and was no longer as strong as before.

In that incident, the Luo family, as a partner of the Lecter family, was naturally implicated. The court of inquiry conducted a strict investigation on them, cleared out some shady industries, and imposed a large amount of fines.

Because of this incident, the Federation realized that it had to teach these people a lesson and a warning, and that it had to clean up the pests and not let them act recklessly and threaten the security of the Federation.

The Judgment Hall led the Tribunal to conduct surprise inspections on various families and forces. All of a sudden, all the major families and forces began to behave themselves, quickly dealing with all the shady things in their hands and acting as honest federal citizens.

After some reorganization, the atmosphere in the entire federation has improved a lot.

"Tsk, how can you talk like that, you little brat! You're just being rude, aren't you? It just so happens that I just developed a new tranquilizer the day before yesterday and no one has tried it yet, so I'll let you have a taste of it."

Ling Mu's hands froze, and he turned around to see Ling Fei taking out a potion with black bubbles from the space bracelet. A smile uglier than crying appeared on her face, and she said awkwardly, "Sister, please don't bear grudges. Please let me go."

"I'll spare you this time, but if you do it again I'll make you pay for it." Ling Fei glared at him fiercely and took the potion back.

She watched Ling Mu playing with Shi Chu's hand from time to time, and his movements were getting more and more excessive. She couldn't help but say, "What are you doing? She is half a year older than you, and she is also your sister's contracted partner, so she is also half your sister. Show some respect to me, kid."

Speaking of which, this kid has been coming to her often in the past year, and everyone knows what Sima Zhao is thinking.

The same thing went with his classmate named Ji. She didn't chase him away because of the Ghost Leaf Poison Flower, but who knew that he would come to her place every few days and almost treated her place as his own home.

Speaking of which, the two brothers of the Luo family also come to visit from time to time. Let's not talk about the not-so-smart Luo Yanchuan, but Luo Yanchi, the busy and unscrupulous businessman, comes once a month, using the excuse of partnership to visit Shichu.

Who would believe this if it's not from the truth? I've never seen him care so much about any partner. He uses people and then throws them into the trash. Why would he care about your life or death?

It's really creepy and disgusting to be targeted by a guy like this.

Speaking of which, his younger brother also seemed to like Shi Chu. That young man didn't seem to understand his brother's intention and was frightened by him. It would be interesting to see the two brothers become enemies in the future.

One by one, they came to her door to show their affection, but what did she think she was? A vegetable market?

Ling Fei caught a glimpse of Ling Mu inserting his fingers between the beta girl's fingers, and his wheat-colored big hand tightly wrapped around the fair and delicate hand, their fingers interlocked, their eyes gentle and lingering, and their posture very ambiguous.

How come this kid suddenly got it? It's really unbearable to watch.

Now you are so brave while the other person is asleep, you will be obedient when the other person wakes up.

She slapped Ling Mu's arm hard, interrupting his action. Just as she was about to ask him to behave himself, the light computer in her hand suddenly rang. After reading the message, she turned around and left in a hurry, leaving only a sentence.

"The warehouse has delivered the materials I ordered. I'm going to count them and put them into storage. You better behave yourself and don't do anything out of line! I'll give her a replacement energy drink later. It's the second one on your right, the blue one."

She treated Shi Chu as her own sister. It was rare for her to meet someone who suited her taste, but before she could even hold him in her arms, he was targeted by a group of demons and monsters. If it weren't for the fact that Ling Mu was her brother, she would have stayed as far away from him as possible.

The one who is close to the water gets the moon first, and the good water should be kept in the field. I can only tolerate you here, so take care of yourself and don't go too far.

Ling Mu didn't even raise his head and replied perfunctorily: "Yeah."

After the other person left, he lowered his head again and pressed their palms tightly together. With his other hand, he concentrated on playing with the slender white fingers. He was so focused that he didn't notice that the girl's eyelashes suddenly trembled slightly.
