Chapter 347

~6 min read 1,115 words

Time passed, the sun set and the moon rose.

When Lin Que gave Akatsuki Shizune a full-body massage and left her private office, it was already night.

It was rare to help others, and Lin Que, who helped Akatsuki Shizune relax, was in a good mood and didn't return to the Tomb of the Deep Sea directly through the power of the realm.

"Let me see... it should be here."

Walking in the staff passage of the MAR Medical Center, Lin Que turned left and right and came to a spacious hall.

There were not many people in the hall, Lin Que swept his gaze around, and his eyes fell on a girl wearing a school uniform with a black ponytail.

The other party was currently sitting alone in the corner of the hall, with a look of deep sadness on her face.

Perhaps realizing that this was not good, she took off the plain glasses on her face, raised her arm to wipe the corners of her eyes, trying to wipe away the tears.

But obviously, that was just a futile effort.

Even though she had been trying to calm down, tears still kept sliding from her eyes, wetting her beautiful face.

Also realizing this, the girl prepared to get up and go to the washroom to wash her face and calm herself down.

But just then, a palm reached out first and handed her a few candies.

"Do you want to eat?"

Lin Que recommended: "This is a special candy I got from a pumpkin head, I heard it's very popular among children."

"I've tasted a few, and the taste is indeed quite good."

"Uh, thank you."

Not expecting to be spoken to, Aiba Asagi took the candy with some surprise and looked up at the man in front of her.

"That... may I ask who you are?"

"As for me, I'm just a kind person who happened to pass by after hearing the cry of a helpless girl."

Confirming that the power trying to guide him here came from the girl in front of him, Lin Que smiled and sat down on the side.

"Why are you so sad, did something happen?"

"My mother has a terminal illness."

Seeing that Lin Que was willing to listen to her, Aiba Asagi, who was under a lot of pressure, pursed her lips and replied.

"She has been staying at MAR for several days, but she hasn't gotten any better."

"Just now the attending doctor told us that the test report came out, and my mother has a terminal illness that currently has no cure."

MAR is a world-famous magic industry complex, involving a wide range of fields, from military weapons to general food.

And among these many industries, MAR's treatment level is still at the world's top level.

The MAR attending doctor said it was a terminal illness, which basically meant a death notice.

Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes again, Aiba Asagi's voice was full of sadness.

"According to the doctor, even if we use the world's top treatment equipment, she can only last for a few more months."

A look of realization appeared on Lin Que's face: "So that's it, that is indeed very desperate."

This kind of separation with a basically determined time limit is indeed hard for people to accept.

But to be honest, Lin Que has seen too many such things.

The despair he created by killing people is already so much that he can't even count it himself.

Like the separation caused by a terminal illness, in the past, even if Lin Que knew about it, he would probably just comfort a few words and leave.

But this time it was a bit different. Through mind reading during the conversation just now, Lin Que had already confirmed the identity of the girl in front of him.

The heroine of the original Bloodthirsty World, Aiba Asagi, who has identities such as Electronic Empress and Cain's Witch.

"Looking at it this way, the power just now was the legendary Feng Shui art that shrouded the entire Itogami Island."

"Hmm?"

Seeing Lin Que suddenly change the subject, a look of doubt appeared on Aiba Asagi's face.

"Feng Shui art? Do you mean that unique spell from the East?"

"Yes." Lin Que nodded: "I didn't expect you to look young, but you know quite a lot."

"After all, this is a demon special zone, and elementary school has taught similar things, so it's normal to know a little more."

Although the topic went off track, Aiba Asagi, who didn't want to talk much about her mother's affairs, asked.

"Instead, you, why did you suddenly bring this up? Could it be that your appearance here is not accidental?"

"Of course not."

Lin Que pointed to his ear: "Didn't I just say it? I came here after hearing the cry of a helpless girl."

Itogami Island is a huge altar built through Feng Shui art and special craft materials, and the ultimate goal is to resurrect Cain.

As Cain's Witch, everything on this island is Aiba Asagi's companion, and all accidents and inevitabilities will protect her.

Just now, Lin Que felt that power, so he followed it all the way and met Aiba Asagi.

"... I have to say, your luck is really good."

Lin Que smiled: "If it were normal, I basically wouldn't come to a place like a hospital."

"But you happened to appear here on the day I came, making me notice your situation."

"You suddenly said something I couldn't understand."

Aiba Asagi asked with some doubt: "Could it be that your appearance here can cure my mother's illness?"

"Of course I can."

"Ah?"

Aiba Asagi's expression was stunned, and then a complex look appeared on her face.

"Although I know you are comforting me, please don't say such things again."

The more she hears, the sadder she will be.

"Questioned again."

Lin Que shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, such things that go beyond common sense are indeed hard for people to accept."

"Are you serious?"

Seeing that Lin Que didn't seem to be comforting her, Aiba Asagi's expression also became serious.

"You don't even know what illness my mother has, why are you sure you have a way to cure her?"

"Because my treatment is not treatment in the conventional sense."

Lin Que took out a bottle of evolution potion and handed it to Aiba Asagi: "Do you want to try it? After drinking it, you can evolve into a higher lifeform."

"Like those so-called terminal illnesses in your eyes, they don't need to be actively cured at all, they will disappear naturally." ===== CHAPTER 349 =====
