"Hmm...actually, I think it would be better if you didn't participate in the battle tonight," Xiangzi suddenly changed his mind.
"why?"
"Because... your soul gem is cracked." Xiangzi made up an excuse casually.
"..."
Chu Hua summoned the Soul Gem from the ring.
The surface was covered with scattered cracks.
"...It's alright, I'll control myself." Chu Hua put away the gem, stared into Xiangzi's eyes, and said calmly, "Besides, there's something Xiangzi is hiding from me, isn't there?"
A few streaks of scarlet mingled with the violet, and Chu Hua's eyes became incredibly sharp, as if a scalpel were dissecting Xiangzi.
Xiangzi already had a hard time hiding anything from Chuhua, but now he was completely exposed, as if he were lying on an operating table.
"I told you I would decide for myself what I should tell you and what I shouldn't." Xiangzi frowned and took a step back.
The two were unknowingly separated by the curtains drawn around the hospital beds.
“I’ve said before that I will decide for myself when to listen to you and when not to,” Chu Hua said. “Even if Xiao Xiang doesn’t want to tell me anything, I will still participate in tonight’s battle.”
"I'm doing this for your own good."
“Me too.” Chu Hua didn’t back down. “How many magical girls are there on the ship? Even if my Soul Gem is in bad shape, this fighting power isn’t something that can just disappear, right?”
"Moreover, this is my hometown."
“What happened here is my family matter. Xiao Xiang has no reason or right to stop me from handling my family matters, right?”
Their eyes met invisibly in the air, sparking intense flames.
Xiangzi pursed his lips and stared directly into those beastly eyes, which were three parts scarlet.
In the end, she was defeated in the confrontation.
"That's precisely why I don't want you involved, since it's your family matter," Xiangzi sighed. "Don't get too excited about what I'm about to say."
"why?"
“Because…” Xiangzi said with difficulty, “Your mother, Aunt Lin, is the sea witch.”
The Lost Tale: The Spirit of Youth: Chapter 219 Who Turned the Temperature Up to 27 Degrees?
"...In short, that's roughly the situation."
Xiangzi filled a paper cup with hot water to moisten his throat.
"..."
After listening, Chu Hua silently lowered her head.
White light shone down from above, illuminating Chu Hua's entire body, but burying her eyes under her bangs in shadow.
From Xiangzi's angle, she could only see Chuhua's moving lips.
"The next battle will most likely involve running into Aunt Lin, so..."
"—Let me go."
Chu Hua gripped the bedsheet tightly, interrupting Xiangzi.
She raised her head, looked at Xiangzi with her purplish-red eyes, and repeated it earnestly once more.
"Let me go."
“…Even if I told you to rest in the lounge, you wouldn’t listen, would you?” Xiangzi sighed and shrugged helplessly. “I won’t stop you.”
"Xiaoxiang, thank you."
“Saying things like that too much will only create distance.” Xiangzi turned around and opened the door to the medical room. “If you really want to come, then come along.”
Chu Hua nodded, moved the table off the hospital bed, slipped off the bed, her bare feet landing on the floor, and then took a napkin from the tissue box next to her to wipe her mouth.
"Ah."
=====
Xiangzi led Chuhua to a waiting room.
Pushing open the door, only Mujica's friends were inside.
"Hi, Hatsuko, welcome back~" Meow Dream was the first to raise her head and greet Hatsuko.
“Welcome back,” Mu said.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you," Chu Hua said, bending down to bend over.
"Hey, no, no, Xiangzi has already come once." Miaomeng immediately interrupted, "Why are you two so alike? Don't be so formal, okay?"
Miao Meng rolled her eyes.
"What do people usually call this, 'couple's resemblance'?"
"Cough cough..." Xiangzi turned his head away and cleared his throat.
"How are you feeling? Are you alright after the Soul Gem cracked?" Hailing asked.
"I don't feel anything special," Chu Hua said softly, rubbing her nose. "Thank you for your concern."
She didn't mind the teasing about Miaomeng.
However, after messing up so many things, when Chu Hua opened the door and saw that everyone was still welcoming her, she felt a little sore.
"We can celebrate after the sun comes out," Xiangzi said, trying to smooth things over. "The others won't be here for a while, and until then..."
She clapped her hands.
"Kyubi."
--"I am here!"
Kyubey poked its head out from behind MeowDream and shook its life-length ears.
"Chubi is at your service! Hey! Don't pull my ear!"
Meow Dream grabbed Kyubey's ears, pulled it out from behind her, and threw it onto the coffee table in the middle of the reception room.
"I was wondering why my butt felt so hot and a bit uncomfortable. Turns out you've been huddled up there the whole time."
"You sat down without even looking, okay?!"
"What's wrong? Is the pretty girl's butt uncomfortable?"
"I have no interest in older women over twenty."
"Who are you calling an old auntie?!"
"Someone's taking this personally, but I won't say who it is!"
"I'm angry, meow!" Meow Dream grabbed Kyubey's face and rubbed it in her hands. "I'm still thinking about how you, you ugly white plush toy, tricked me into making a cheap wish!"
"Someone's getting anxious!" In her hands, Cupid was kneaded into various shapes like a lump of clay.
"Sigh..." Xiangzi sighed, rubbing his forehead.
“A match made in heaven.” Hailing rolled her eyes from the side.
"Agreed." Mu nodded in agreement.
Xiangzi noticed that Muhe and Hailing seemed to be communicating more recently.
I don't know when it started.
Overall, it's a good thing, since Mu usually only wanted to communicate with Xiangzi.
Back to Miaomeng's side, it was Xiangzi who finally stepped forward and separated the two.
She tossed Kewpie onto the coffee table.
I sat down in front of it, crossed my legs, and hung my hotel slippers halfway over my toes. My clean, white toes reflected an alluring glow under the warm yellow light.
"What are you doing, wanting me to lick your toes?" Cupid flapped his ears and hid to the side. "I have my dignity, at least wear white stockings."
"Are you getting more and more perverted lately... Sigh... Never mind."
Xiangzi rubbed his forehead, a look on his face that said, "This guy is disgusting, but I have no choice but to deal with him."
"What exactly is a 'flower'? Can you answer that question?"
"Do you really want to know?" Kyubey narrowed his eyes.
"Ah."
"If you knew that, there would be no turning back later."
As he spoke slowly, Qubi looked at Xiangzi, his ruby-like eyes framing Xiangzi alone within them.
In a flash.
The air in the reception room seemed to have gotten a few degrees colder.
It was so cold that Xiangzi couldn't help but shiver, and goosebumps rose all over his arms.
"No, it's really cold." Hailing raised her hand and put it under the air conditioner vent.
drop--
"I was wondering why it was so hot. Who turned it on to 27 degrees? And the central air conditioning is so energy-efficient."
Miaomeng pulled at her collar and randomly pressed the buttons on the air conditioner controller on the wall, setting the temperature to 21 degrees Celsius and the fan speed to the maximum.
A chilling cold air was blowing out of the ceiling vents.
"call--!"
Miao Meng squinted contentedly, spreading her arms wide under the air conditioner vent, striking a pose reminiscent of The Shawshank Redemption.
"Air conditioning is the savior... wait a minute."
Miao Meng blinked and realized that the conversation had stopped at some point, and everyone was looking at her in silence.
"What are you doing, you guys ignore me and keep going."
"..."
A large "well" shape appeared on Xiangzi's head. He grabbed the ashtray from the coffee table and threw it at Miaomeng's head.
when----!
"Ah! You're abusing a cat!" Miao Meng clutched her bleeding head, crawling and rolling on the ground.
“This is what everyone wants.” Hai Ling picked up the teacup on the table and took a small sip.
"Turn the temperature back up."
"Waaaaahh ...
No, she did secretly lower the temperature by two degrees, but the air conditioning wasn't turned up as high.
Without the chilling wind that made him shiver, Xiangzi rubbed the goosebumps on his hands and turned his gaze back to Qubi.
"We've made enough of a scene, now it's time to..."
Xiangzi knew that Cupids wouldn't say a word unless asked, even if this particular Cupid was very different from the others.
Tell me all the information related to 'flowers' completely and clearly.

Q: What exactly is this so-called "flower"?
A: The flower, also known as the Flower of Creation/Destruction. According to the database accumulated by the Kyubey clan, in a way that is easy for humans to understand, the flower is a "chemical reaction" between the wish-granting machine that creates magical girls and some magical girls with special talents.
Q: So what exactly constitutes a "special qualification"?
A: This special qualification is what we call "supercausality".
