Doctor of Science's Journey into Another World

Chapter 553 Qiqi's Cold Smile

"Third brother, switch seats with Qiqi!

"what?"

Claire No. 3 was tearing the roasted whole lamb in front of him. He deliberately chose a seat close to Viscount Campbell. Besides being very talkative, his primary target was the fat lamb in front of him. He noticed it the moment he entered the church.

"But, but, I haven't eaten yet..."

"But what but? Come here quickly, or I won't be your partner anymore."

Xiaoliu's threat was very effective, because everyone in Claire's team knew that the third brother was pursuing Xiaoliu, but unfortunately, the flower was willing but the water was flowing, and the two of them did not become a couple like the captain and the eighth sister.

However, perhaps because he has been there for too long, No. 6 seems to have gradually eased his resistance to No. 3 recently. He has also begun to no longer reject No. 3 in some two-person tasks, and sometimes even subconsciously condones some of No. 3's intimate actions.

Seeing the third brother stand up, Qiqi immediately became a little anxious, because number three was very close to Bai Hao, almost less than two meters away, with only her own captain between them. She was not ready for a face-to-face communication with Bai Hao, although she had been thinking about the topic these days.

But Xiaoliu understood that Qiqi was most like a submissive sheep. As long as she was pushed from behind, she would move forward involuntarily.

Sure enough, Qiqi still came to the third brother's seat, but the embarrassing thing was that Claire No. 1 had already sat there. Seeing Qiqi standing there at a loss, he casually said, "Qiqi, you go sit in my seat. I'll take the roasted whole lamb."

Qiqi was stunned when she heard that. The captain's seat? Wouldn't that mean he was sitting next to Viscount Campbell? He was less than a meter away. What should I say? A boring Beixu joke? Or an interesting mission experience in the East? No, that was confidential...

Although Qiqi's brain was churning like a ball of paste, she still sat steadily next to Bai Hao. Her body was extremely stiff, her eyes were empty and lifeless, and she looked straight ahead at the magical flowers used as decorations.

The air around Qiqi was a little frozen at this time. Her expression was unusually tense. She neither spoke nor ate, as if she had entered some strange autistic state. Bai Hao didn't know how to talk to her, so he could only eat the food in silence.

Soon, it was Claire No. 1 who took action. He gently patted Qiqi's shoulder and introduced her to Bai Hao: "This is Claire No. 7, the flower of our team. You once cured her six years ago. The situation was really critical at that time..."

"Oh, it's Claire No. 7. I was wondering why she looked familiar. When I treated her, it was the first time I used the purification secret technique of the Moon Goddess Sect. I had not yet joined the sect. I didn't expect that when I saw her again, she had already become the Son of God."

Bai Hao took over the conversation naturally. He was truly filled with emotion. He had undergone such tremendous changes in just six years. It seemed like the first time he left Campbell Territory to study southward was just yesterday.

"My name is Qiqi!"

Bai Hao nodded slightly upon hearing this. Although there had not been any major changes in Claire's team, in the five years of carrying out missions in the East, they were no longer the cold and rigid demon hunter team they once were. Everyone had a friendly name instead of a code name.

In general, Claire's team has become warmer and more colorful.

"Miss Qiqi, I was weak at the beginning, and I may not have completely cured you, but tonight I can guarantee that your body will become extremely clean. Not only will the sequelae brought by the violent magic be eliminated, but other hidden injuries and symptoms will also be eliminated!"

Qiqi was very moved by Bai Hao's confident words, but the happiest person was Claire No. 1 who was standing next to her. He shamelessly begged Bai Hao just for what he had just said.

Over the years, Claire No. 1 has long regarded the other members of Claire's team as her own family. They are not related by blood, but are better than blood relatives. The symbiotic contract keeps them closely connected. Who doesn't want their family to be healthy and live a long life?

Qiqi saw that the atmosphere suddenly became good, and immediately said to Bai Hao with a smile:

"Do you know what it means when a glass falls from the wizard's tower?"

"?"

Bai Hao was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused, and shook his head subconsciously.

"It means goodnight, because I'm broken, haha, it's funny!"

Bai Hao: "..."

Claire No. 1 on the side: "..."

Others at the table: “…”

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire lively dining table suddenly became quiet. An inexplicable chill floated around everyone, and even Hillelia behind Bai Hao couldn't help but shiver.

Bai Hao obviously has extremely rich social experience, but at this moment he didn't know what to say. Qiqi's jokes were so good that it was the first time in all these years that he felt such a cold joke.

Hillelia frowned. She really didn't expect that Claire No. 7, who was obviously a fire elemental mage, could cast ice elemental magic. He should not be underestimated!

Qiqi ignored the silence around her and said excitedly: "Dogs can bark, cats can meow, so what can chickens do?"

Bai Hao blinked in confusion, then asked tentatively: "Can chickens cuckoo, lay eggs, and crow?"

"No, the 'chicken' will be reserved for those who are prepared! Hahahaha..."

"……Hahaha."

Bai Hao looked at Qi Qi who was laughing so hard that she was bent over and felt a little overwhelmed. He could only laugh awkwardly along with her, and then looked to Claire No. 1 for help.

In the face of Qiqi's jokes, Bai Hao felt like a rookie in the social scene.

"By the way, you also know..."

Qiqi wanted to say more but was ruthlessly interrupted by Claire No. 1, who just said in a serious tone: "It's almost time. I think we should start the great and sacred purification ceremony. We can't waste the precious time of the Holy Son."

Qiqi realized something the instant she heard that, so she quickly returned to her previous shy look, lowering her head and curling up in the chair in silence, but she still looked up from time to time to steal a glance at Bai Hao, which was quite cute.

Seeing this, Xiaoliu covered her forehead and sighed heavily. She had clearly told Qiqi last night not to tell those jokes as cold as an extreme cold storm, and just to show her cuteness like a little bird. But Qiqi still told two of the most classic ones.

Bai Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He thanked Claire No. 1 from the bottom of his heart for helping him out. If he let Qiqi continue talking, he would definitely catch a cold.
