Although his own brain, theoretically, had already forgotten about sleeping together with An Le in the divine land, whenever Yan Huan thought of An Le, some unfounded sensory memories would inexplicably surface in his mind.
The warmth of her sleeping next to him, the fragrance of her hair, her softness...
It seemed that while the brain had forgotten, the body still remembered those moments of beauty and tranquility.
Brain?
Body?
Huh...
As Yan Huan was lost in thought, sudden inspiration struck him.
He suddenly thought of a clever trick to control Ye Shiyu... no, even other hosts in the future.
But at this moment, he didn't have time to think deeply, because as his consciousness became clearer, he gradually realized that he seemed to be in someone's embrace.
"Mmm..."
He pretended to hum lazily, as if just waking up.
It turned out that he was nestled in An Le's embrace.
No wonder, it was so soft and comfortable.
Looks like I really am going to betray the flat-chested faction?
"Xiao Huan, you're awake... Ah, forgot... forgot..."
Beside him, An Le's worried words suddenly came to mind, but then she seemed to remember something and hurriedly helped Yan Huan sit up straight.
After all, she had now completed the memory correction and was no longer Xiao Huan's girlfriend.
Resting in her embrace was really hard to explain...
"Ah, An Le, did I fall asleep?"
Yan Huan pretended to be affected by the memory correction, touched his head with a slight headache, and then looked at An Le, whose face was slightly flushed in front of him.
"Yes, Xiao Huan, after you got on the plane, you... just rested."
An Le smiled faintly, tucked her long hair behind her ear, but a trace of faint, barely detectable loss flashed in her eyes.
After all...
Later she would return to a state where Xiao Huan only saw her as a sister.
This was her own choice.
"I see... By the way, Sakuragi..."
"Pr... President, I'm here..."
From behind came the weak voice of Sakuragi Hitomi, making Yan Huan stunned for a moment, and he quickly turned his head.
"Hmm?"
He saw Sakuragi Hitomi sitting limply on the seat beside him, looking as if she had been utterly drained.
It turned out that earlier she had forcibly held Yan Huan for more than an hour.
Unable to hold on anymore, she had An Le take over for ten minutes.
"..."
Yan Huan immediately understood what had happened, but at the moment, he had no choice but to pretend to be somewhat guilty and confused,
"Sakuragi, what happened to you?"
"N-nothing..."
Sakuragi Hitomi coughed lightly, trying to straighten up and pretend nothing was wrong.
But she looked so exhausted, there was no way to hide it.
Come to think of it, Sakuragi's body...
Is it also worse than before?
As this thought emerged, Yan Huan immediately realized the underlying issue.
Especially since An Le's prior loss of sensation in her limbs was still fresh in his mind.
However, Sakuragi's condition wasn't severe yet.
Although it wasn't yet a life-or-death crisis causing Yan Huan to agonize over who to use the "Life-saving Crab Medicine" on, it did make Yan Huan aware of the urgency.
If the modifier isn't curbed soon, it might cause trouble.
This time, An Le could still use Crab Medicine.
But next time, there might not be any Crab Medicine available.
"..."
Thinking this, Yan Huan couldn't help but clench his fist...
I really need to bring out my skills and take action.
"Let's go, get off the plane."
"Hmm..."
Sakuragi Hitomi unbuckled her seatbelt and stood up shakily.
Fearing Yan Huan would notice something strange, she tried to make small talk, asking,
"President, should we head back to the home apartment first, I wonder if Spencer has returned..."
"...No, Sakuragi."
However, Yan Huan shook his head, extended his hand to Sakuragi Hitomi, and asked,
"Can I borrow your phone for a moment?"
"Ah, sure you can, but..."
Sakuragi obediently turned off flight mode and handed over her phone.
She was just about to inquire when she saw Yan Huan open plane, then open Ye Shiyu's chat box.
As expected, the message sent to Ye Shiyu this morning still hadn't received any reply.
Looking at the screen, Yan Huan contemplated for a second, then pressed voice input,
"Sister Shiyu, I've already arrived in Tokyo. I heard from Sakuragi that you aren't well. Can you tell me where you are? We'll come over now."
Sent!
"Eh? Going to find Ye Shiyu first?"
Faced with Sakuragi Hitomi's surprise, Yan Huan smiled slightly and nodded.
That's right, he planned to find Ye Shiyu first.
...
...
Tokyo, Central District, Ginza, Mitsui Garden Hotel.
Yan Huan looked at Sakuragi Hitomi's phone, then glanced up at the hotel entrance before him,
"This is the place."
Behind him, Sakuragi Hitomi and An Le exchanged glances, each with an inscrutable emotion in their eyes.
This was the address Ye Shiyu sent after hearing Yan Huan's voice.
Apparently, after leaving Sakuragi Hitomi's apartment, she stayed at this hotel.
"Ka~"
The automatic doors opened, and Yan Huan walked towards the elevator.
Ye Shiyu had given the room number, so all they needed to do was go upstairs to find her.
Fortunately, the elevator only had the three of them inside.
However, just as the elevator door was about to close, a hand suddenly extended from outside, stopping the door from shutting.
"I'm terribly sorry, esteemed guests..."
It was two female front desk staff, with an elderly person in a women's suit, seemingly a cleaner, following behind.
They originally intended to press the floor button, but seeing Yan Huan and the others had already pressed it, they withdrew their hands.
They were going to the same floor.
"Miss Fukuyama, are you sure you saw the floor covered with blades inside 0511 when you went to clean this morning?"
"That's right, when I went to clean, I opened the door, and it was pitch black inside. I could barely see blades scattered all over the entrance..."
The cleaner swallowed nervously and stated,
"I was scared at the time, then a terrifying young girl's voice came from inside, telling me to leave the room immediately."
0511?
Listening to this, Yan Huan couldn't help but glance at Sakuragi Hitomi's phone.
On it, the room number Ye Shiyu sent was indeed 0511.
"..."
Blades?
Could it be...
Ye Shiyu wouldn't be playing with landmines, making herself a flower knife, would she?
Hajimeya, you already have the titles of Master of the Hypnosis Field, Zero Frame Startup Master, Name Writing Master, Master Ye, and other honors...
If you add another flower knife master, Aunt Ye's family might really need to consult an expert.
Could there be something evil attached?
"And it was a young girl?"
"Yes... anyway, she sounded quite young..."
The two receptionists exchanged glances, and the other one reminded,
"That girl is an international tourist. Her passport has the relative's contact. Should we...
Upon hearing this, Yan Huan couldn't help but speak,
"No need, I should be, considered her relative... we came to find her."
"You? And you are?"
"I'm her brother... not a biological one."
Not sure why he added that last qualifier.
The two staff members exchanged glances, both a bit skeptical.
However, by now the elevator door had already opened, revealing the hallway beyond.
0511...
"This young lady has been staying here for four days and never came out. It seems she hasn't left even once." Aroused curiosity
They soon arrived at the room's door and seeing the tightly shut door, Yan Huan squinted slightly.
At this sight, Sakuragi Hitomi left a gentle doorbell.
"Dingdong~"
She also left a voice message,
"Ye Shiyu, the President and we are here to see you."
No response.
Yan Huan rang the doorbell again and tentatively called out,
"Sister Shiyu?"
Still no response.
Yan Huan's eyes narrowed further, and he turned to the two staff members behind him,
"Do you have a master key card to open the door?"
"Yes... yes we do."
The cleaner handed over a universal key card.
Just as she was about to ask, she saw Yan Huan open the room, revealing the dark inside.
The first thing that caught their eyes was the hallway littered with newly unwrapped blades.
Seeing those blades, Yan Huan furrowed his brow and immediately looked inside the dark room.
