Hey, right? Isn't Alicia right here?
Mebius's eyes lit up and she immediately had an idea—but given her personality, how could she possibly say something like, "Alicia, my shoulders are a little sore, can you massage them for me?"
Therefore, she had to use her brain, and in a flash of inspiration, she twisted her body and pretended to be uncomfortable.
Hmph, seeing me like this, why doesn't this annoying woman come up and serve me?
—Then, Jiang Qiao, who was absentmindedly thinking about the little bird, completely failed to notice the snake's 'hint'.
The fairy Ellie, who witnessed all of this, looked at the crazy 'performance' of Mebius. A sly glint appeared in her pure and innocent eyes, but on the surface, she remained unchanged, asking with considerable confusion:
"Dr. Möbius, are you feeling unwell?"
"Ahem... I've been a bit busy with work lately, and working long hours, but it's nothing."
Mebius's expression froze, but he couldn't say it directly. He could only try to explain calmly and hint at something.
Fairy Ellie suddenly realized, then sat on Jiang Qiao's shoulder and said quite seriously, "Eh—Is that so? In that case, as you can trust me, let's not bother Dr. Möbius anymore, shall we?"
Although "the simulated me" would be a more accurate term, it was clearly not appropriate. So, the fairy Airi began to call Jiang Qiao Airi "cute me" or "cute me," and alternative terms included "Qiao" or "A Qiao."
"Ah... okay, Möbius, you should take care of yourself too."
"like..."
"Is there anything else, Dr. Mebius?" The fairy Ellie, turning her head, asked with an innocent and puzzled expression. Looking at this 'little Ellie,' Mebius was speechless, and could only awkwardly utter:
"Uh...nothing."
And so, right before Snake's eyes, 'Master Jiang' was dragged away by the fairy Ellie, and as soon as he was out of Mebius's sight, Ellie floated beside 'Master Jiang'.
"Hey, can you give me a shoulder massage? My shoulders are so sore."
"?"
Jiang Qiao looked at the little guy in front of her with a question mark on her face—even an armed doll can have sore shoulders? And Fairy Airi is clearly one of those that just came out of the factory recently.
Seemingly sensing this question, Fairy Airi immediately used her invincible ultimate move, 'cuteness,' hugging the pink-haired girl's cheek and rubbing against her cheek vigorously.
"Please rub it for me~ Please rub it for me~"
"Okay, okay~"
Jiang Qiao could only nod helplessly, somewhat indulgently complying with the fairy Ellie, who was overjoyed.
"Hehe, I like you the most."
By the way—whether intentionally or unintentionally, she spoke quite loudly when saying these things, so loud that even Möbius in the lab could hear her... Well, it was unintentional (I'm sure of it).
After doing all this, the little guy floating in front of Jiang Qiao was enjoying the massage. Although it's true that armed dolls can't experience the pleasurable sensation of being massaged like humans, even though the fairy Ellie uses high-end custom parts like Klein, it's still incredibly satisfying!
A smug glint appeared in Ellie's eyes—poor Dr. Mebius wanted a massage from me, someone reliable, but couldn't bring himself to say it. He could only watch them leave, and was even... how pitiful!
After leaving Mebius's laboratory, they went to the hospital. Totori was seriously injured in the Fourth Honkai Impact and was brought back to the Queenstown base for emergency treatment. Because of the severity of her injuries, Dr. Mebius had to take action himself to retrieve the little bird. Even so, she was unconscious for a long time and was transferred to the Fire Chaser headquarters hospital for observation.
Because she was always traveling, Jiang Qiao hardly had time to visit her. Now that she finally had some free time, she finally had the chance to come and see her.
Following the address I got from MEI, I headed straight for the ward. Just then, I ran into an unexpected person in front of the ward – Wendy.
However, unlike her previous image, in order to avoid the possibility that the image of 'Wendy' might cause some witnesses to notice something unusual, Jiang Qiao adjusted her hair from its original black on the outside and green on the inside to black—in fact, this is Wendy's original hair color, and the black on the outside and green on the inside is the image that she transformed into after becoming a Herrscher of Law.
As for the possibility that her appearance might bear a striking resemblance to someone—cough cough, that's just a coincidence, not something Jiang Qiao did intentionally (I'm sure of it).

Chapter 166 'Alicia' is still an honest person!
"Finally, I've seen you... Wait, you're the first one, right?"
Wendy, who already knew Alicia, couldn't help but make a comment after seeing 'Alicia'. However, after the girl frowned slightly, sniffed closer to the pink-clad girl, and examined her closely, she asked with some surprise, "You...you wouldn't happen to be the one from before, would you?"
Perhaps because of the 'fusion' they had shared, Wendy was quite sensitive to this and noticed the abnormality of the 'Alicia' in front of her after a short observation.
Of course, she didn't care much. After all, Jiang Qiao, Alicia, and Yin all had good relationships. If she had to say, Jiang Qiao was closer to Yin, since they had shared the same body.
The only thing that might confuse Wendy is the situation with 'Alicia'. Even though they have merged, she doesn't know about switching bodies because her memories haven't been unlocked. However, with the example of her merging with Jiang Qiao, it's not a big deal—maybe Alicia and Jiang Qiao have merged as well?
"Speaking of which... what's that little guy next to you who looks just like you?" Instead of dwelling on Jiang Qiao and Alicia's questions, Miss 'Green Seele' was more interested in the fairy Alicia floating beside her, who looked remarkably like her.
The fairy Ellie, who was mentioned, was holding a fairy wand, humming and whimpering, her delicate, doll-like face beaming with pride.
"Hmph, I am the Fairy Ellie from the Fairy Kingdom, the Fairy Ellie!"
"Nice to meet you, Wendy?"
Unlike the Ellie from Paradise, the Ellie from Paradise gave Jiang Qiao a fairy Ellie whose data was infused with her own—adhering to the principle of not wanting to waste the data since it had already been taken out, this fairy Ellie, who is almost her 'clone,' possesses the same innocence as the fairy Ellie from Paradise, but also inherited the quirky and mischievous nature of the fairy Ellie from Paradise, and... it seems to have inherited quite a bit of her love for beautiful girls as well.
As for 'Green Seele', who can be described as an absolute beauty... well, perhaps she's more worthy of being called 'Black Seele' now? But the fairy Ellie is quite enthusiastic about her.
"Ah...me too, me too..."
"Alright, let's go inside and talk more."
Because of the frequent Honkai attacks, the headquarters hospital was extremely busy. Not wanting to get in the way, Jiang Qiao interrupted the conversation between the fairy Ellie and Wendy and pushed open the door to enter.
The ward was large, but there was only one bed in it. You could see a girl with flaxen hair sitting on the bed looking out the window. After noticing the arrival of Jiang Qiao and Wendy, Totori's face showed a hint of joy that could be seen with the naked eye.
She was the lively type, and being alone in this empty hospital room was incredibly uncomfortable. Luckily, Wendy often came to visit her, and the arrival of 'Alicia' made the little bird overjoyed. If Totori weren't still unable to get out of bed, she probably would have pounced on her already.
Even so, the girl remained extremely enthusiastic.
"It seems you've recovered quite well." Looking at Totori, who was in excellent spirits, Jiang Qiao showed a hint of relief.
Although he hadn't spent much time with the girl, Mr. Jiang, who considered her a friend, was satisfied to see the little bird regain its vitality.
"Yes, thanks to Dr. Mebius."
"Although there are rumors that Dr. Mebius is a 'man-eating' demon, she really is a good person, just like you said, Alicia."
Talking excitedly, Totori was already thinking about what kind of gift she should give the doctor to thank him after she was discharged from the hospital.
Hmm—I remember Alicia said that Dr. Mebius really likes pretty pink dresses, so let's give him a dress!
Jiang, who had activated 'Alicia' mode, chatted with Totori for quite a while, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant, especially with the fairy Airi there to lighten the mood—who could resist the fairy Airi who was as delicate as a rag doll?
Of course, while Jiang and Totori were having a very pleasant conversation, Wendy, who was standing nearby, was not so happy.
Seeing Alicia locked in a heated fight with Totori, she immediately pouted.
—You know, she's the one who comes to see Totori all the time! Before Jiang Qiao came, she was always the one who chatted with Totori the most happily and without a care in the world!
Now... she could only watch helplessly as the little bird and 'Alicia,' or rather, 'another Wendy' in some ways, chatted so happily, while she couldn't join in and could only stand by as a reluctant bystander... Wendy felt a pang of jealousy and thought her hair was gradually turning green.
Of course—for a little bird, it's not surprising that things have turned out this way.
After all, Wendy has come to see me so many times, and we've talked about almost everything. Now that someone new has finally come along, it's not strange for me to be a little closer to her, right?
Well, she was sure Wendy wouldn't mind—look how happy Wendy is!
"Hmm~ After chatting for so long, Wendy, how have you been lately?" Fortunately, Jiang was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to leave Miss 'Green Seele' standing aside, so he took the initiative to start a conversation and pulled Wendy into the conversation.
When asked, Wendy looked up with a smile, and the bitterness in her heart turned into 'goodwill'—'Alicia' is still an honest person, and she even knows to take Wendy with her! She said cheerfully, "According to Dr. Mei's arrangement, I have joined the fourth squad, and I will be stationed at the Fire Chaser branch on Star Island soon."
“Star Island...is everything alright?” Jiang Qiao raised an eyebrow. The original headquarters of the Fire Moth was located on the Mu Continent, which is also where the United Nations is located. However, due to various considerations, the current headquarters is located in North America, which is not very close to that place.
"Well, it's okay."
Wendy was quite satisfied with the arrangement.
She used to be just an ordinary person, unable to do anything.
For Wendy, whose family background was previously quite poor, becoming a warrior of the 'Fire Moth' was an excellent opportunity.
