Time in a collapsing world

"Um……"

Hearing Ling's words, Sakura nodded awkwardly. Her sister was taken away in front of her, which indeed cast a shadow on her heart.

But the problem is that looking at her every day is not a long-term solution, right?

Moreover, if a guy like the Eighth Herrscher comes next time, you won't be able to protect Ling by yourself, right?

Li thought so, but considering Sakura, this was really the last option. For Sakura who didn't want to leave her sister to the care of other people she didn't know, this was the best she could do.

"Sakura, actually I came here this time to bring Mei's notice."

"what?"

In order to concentrate on taking care of Ling, Sakura had temporarily cut off the communication between herself and the Fire Chaser Moth.

"It seems that all the fusion warriors are being called to gather together if they have anything to say."

After saying that, Li touched Ling's little head and said, "We have to go there, right? As for Ling, let her stay at my place for a while. There will be another cute little girl who will play with her."

"……it is good."

Sakura glanced at Ling, who had no objection, and nodded after hesitating for a while. She just took this opportunity to extend her vacation to Mei.

……

After taking Sakura and Ling to the outside of the villa, Alicia and Destobia, who had been invited, were also preparing to go out.

"Hey, Li, this seems to be your first time bringing Sakura and Ling together, right?"

Alicia bent down and said hello to Ling: "Hi~ Long time no see, Xiaoling~?"

"Sister Alicia, long time no see~"

Ling also replied happily.

"Are you here to play?"

"Well, Brother Li said to let me stay here first. He and his sister have work to do."

"Yeah~ Just right. I was still worried about whether Xi would feel lonely when she was alone. Xiaoling, you came at just the right time~?"

"hope?"

"Is she a little sister as cute as you~?"

"Oh... Huh? Sister Alicia, the shape of your ears... are they some kind of decoration?"

"No~ These are my real ears~?"

"Haha...how is that possible?"

While Alicia was talking to Ling, Destobia secretly asked Sakura: "Sister Sakura, is this your sister? She's so cute~"

"Ah."

Sakura nodded, then she looked at Destobia, a little confused, "...Destobia, do you live here too?"

"Ah...well, I just moved here a while ago."

Destobia's eyes moved back and forth between Li and Sakura. She had not forgotten that Sakura's feelings for Li were still a little beyond the level of friends.

"Yeah……?"

Sakura pondered slightly and did not continue to ask, but she still had some concerns in her mind, such as...the location of Destobia's room. If she remembered correctly, Li should live on the first floor, right?

Phew... Fortunately, Sister Ying didn't ask her any tricky questions, such as whether she had any other impure purposes while living here...

Li looked for the key in his pocket, walked over and opened the door to the villa.

"Eh? Sister Alicia, you haven't left yet?" Xi was passing by the living room and saw a few people standing outside the open door. She was a little surprised and said: "Ah... there are two beautiful people I don't know. Sister and...sister? Hello."

"Xiaoling, this is Xioh, about the same age as you~?"

Alicia briefly introduced Ling, and then said to Xi: "Xi, this is the cute little Ling. She will stay here until we come back~?"

"Is that so? Then please give me some advice~"

As one of the residents here, Nozomi also took on the responsibility of entertaining guests and took Ling into the villa to visit.

"A very cute child."

Sakura praised.

"Of course~? This was chosen by Li Qian, how could it not be cute?"

"? Why do you feel that you are slandering me again, Alicia?"

"Isn't it true? Not long ago, I threatened that I must let Xi live here... Is this a fact~?"

"You are obviously very happy yourself...Sakura, you don't believe Alicia's lies, do you?"

"Won't……"

"That's good……"

"……Bar?"

"...Sakura, you're a bad learner."

Facing Li's resentful gaze, Sakura smiled apologetically, and occasionally teasing Li was a bit addictive.

"Look, this is eldest brother's room, I live next door to him~"

"Wow~ Is this brother Li's room? Hehe, look at me drawing a big turtle on his wall~"

"Ah...this kind of thing can't be done..."

The conversation between Nozomi and Ling came from inside, and Li twitched the corner of his mouth. What he cared about was that Ling was going to scribble on his room, and Sakura's expression was also slightly stagnant. What she cared about was that Nozomi lived in Li's house. next door.

Although she is a younger sister, but...who is not a younger sister now?

"Ah~ forcing my cute little sister to live next door to me... Li is actually such a person..."

Alicia also saw the opportunity and touched her cheek, pretending to be distressed.

"That's right!"

"..."

Li glanced at Destobia, who immediately shrank back, "Sorry, I accidentally thought of coaxing you..."

"Don't waste time here. Don't forget that Mei is still waiting for us. You don't want to be late after such a long vacation, do you?"

Li closed the door and pushed Alicia out of the yard. She couldn't let this guy talk any more. If he continued talking, Li felt that Sakura really had to kill him.

"...Destobia, Li didn't do anything strange to you, right?"

This is what Sakura finally asked after hesitating for a long time.

"……No."

"..."

That's good……

……

"You actually came together?"

Mei watched Li and the four of them arrive at the appointed room, and smiled, "Just in time, with you, we're all here."

"...Are we really the last batch?"

Li said speechlessly.

"Oh, I wish I wasn't late~? Look, doesn't Mei have any objections?"

"If even Mei expresses her opinion, you will not be far away from being resigned..."

Regarding Alicia's behavior of testing the leader's bottom line, Li just laughed.

The four of them followed Mei to the deeper part of the room. Here, the other fusion warriors were sitting in their seats. After seeing the four of them, they all said hello to them.

"Hey, Li, does it feel good to be hugged from left to right?" Hen said with a smile.

"It's great. It's just as great as Blanca discovering your dark history on the day of the King's Game."

Li fired back casually.

"you……!"

Hen immediately hugged his head. He didn't want to recall the look of trash in his wife's eyes when she looked at him.
