Chapter 943 Caesar Awakens
"My teacher, please wake up soon! If you don't wake up soon, we will die from overwork."
It seemed as if they heard the prayer of "Laila".
As Laila mechanically reached out to process the next document, a warm hand suddenly grasped her slender wrist.
let me.
That familiar voice, with its reassuring magnetism, was exceptionally clear in the quiet office.
Caesar gently pulled the document from her hand with his long, slender fingers. When his gaze swept over the title, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle: Isn't this the task I assigned to the newcomer?
He raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone tinged with helplessness and indulgence: Why are you taking on their workload again?
Laila looked up at the sound, her tired eyes lighting up instantly when she saw who it was.
"Teacher!" she exclaimed softly in surprise, her voice trembling slightly with excitement. "You're finally awake?"
A gentle smile curved Caesar's lips, and sunlight streamed through the window, casting dappled golden rays into his deep eyes.
"Yes," he replied softly. Although a few small fish hadn't taken the bait yet, the big fish were already eagerly surfacing, and the real world was waiting for him to come back and clean up the mess.
His long, slender fingers gently traced the girl's furrowed brow, his fingertips lightly caressing her bluish eyelids: "You've had a tough time these past few days. Now, get some sleep."
His tone was full of love.
Before the words were finished, a silver light pierced the air and precisely struck Laiila's acupoint.
The girl's long eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes, with their heavy dark circles, slowly closed, and her head unconsciously tilted forward. She fell into a deep sleep on Caesar's wicker chair.
The office door was gently pushed open, and Mingyuan, Mengjian Yue Ruixi, and Zhuge Xun filed in.
Caesar looked up at the uninvited visitor, a knowing glint in his eyes: "Is this the divination service from Liyue? I've only just woken up, and I haven't even sent the message out yet."
Mingyuan shrugged helplessly, his pale white hair swaying gently with the movement: Don't make me sound like a charlatan.
He glanced at the sleeping Laila, his voice unconsciously softening: "While you're asleep, this girl is full of energy every day, but even flesh and blood has its limits."
"We didn't want to interrupt her because she was so enthusiastic..."
But if things continue like this, Meng Jianyue Ruixi chimed in, her glassy eyes filled with worry, knowing that her body would eventually break down.
Zhuge Xun nodded silently, unfolding his folding fan to cover half of his face: "That's why I came here today so that she can... rest for a while."
Caesar looked at the three of them with suspicion and asked, "Can't Mingyuan explain this by himself? Why are the three of you explaining the situation separately? Besides, only Mingyuan made the move earlier."
Meng Jianyue Ruixi looked at Zhuge Xun and said, "Senior Zhuge, you stole my words. Those were the words I was going to say."
Mingyuan glanced at Meng Jianyue Ruixi and said, "You were the one who threw those silver needles, so explain the situation. I could have explained it myself, but you insist on taking it from me."
In my dream, Yue Ruixi and Zhuge Xun both stuck out their tongues at the same time, making a "sorry, but I'll do it again next time" expression.
In the dream, Mizuki walked to Laiira's side, lifted a strand of her hair, and looked at the silver needles that were shallowly inserted without penetrating Laiira's acupoints, sighing, "But Dr. Mingyuan, your skill in using flying needles in mid-air is truly becoming more and more exquisite~"
"It's truly breathtaking."
Mingyuan said, "Don't boast about my medical skills at this time, because that's not the point right now."
Mingyuan looked at Caesar and said, "From what you just said, you want to contact us, right?"
Caesar nodded and said, "Now that I have awakened, some things should gradually be put on the agenda."
"Therefore, I need your help."
After saying this, Caesar briefly explained his plan to the three people present.
Zhuge Xun looked thoughtful and said, "Although I expected it, hearing Lord Caesar's plan still makes me marvel at how your methods are just like the Doctor's."
“I won’t defend myself, after all, in a way I am also a Dottore,” Caesar said calmly. “If we really want to save Sumeru, to save the World Tree, then all of this is necessary.”
Zhuge Xun laughed and said, "Of course I know this is the only way, but aren't you worried that once this matter is exposed, the 'golden image' you've built up over the past 500 years will be shattered by criticism?"
Caesar laughed, "I've never created a golden statue for myself; I'm not from Liyue."
“Your Excellency is a straightforward person, but I am somewhat concerned about worldly prejudices,” Zhuge Xun said, bowing to Caesar.
Mingyuan said, "Ruo Tuo's favorite saying is—"
"Someone always has to do the right thing."
“Caesar, what you did was right, even if it was inhumane.”
"Perhaps I have no right to judge you on behalf of others, but I am willing to lend you a hand."
Caesar looked at Mingyuan, crossed his arms and laughed, "The doctor's words... can make him seem arrogant."
Mingyuan confidently turned and walked away.
His voice gradually came from near to far: "I suggest you take a look at the ancient books of Liyue. Before I became a doctor, I was the strategist of the Thousand Rock Army."
Mengjian Yue Ruixi, who had always followed Mingyuan, stayed where she was and carried the sleeping Laiyila outside.
“Miss Baku,” Caesar suddenly spoke.
Meng Jianyue Ruixi stopped and turned around, her beautiful face showing a hint of doubt as she asked, "Mr. Caesar, is there anything else?"
Caesar explained, "I know you won't think that way, but I still want to explain. I didn't assign you any tasks, and I didn't mean to distrust you."
"It's not that I'm confident in your abilities, but rather that I don't know how to assign you tasks."
"I don't know your capabilities, so I can't let you risk joining in. This is to ensure the plan's success and also for your safety."
"And another one is..."
Caesar suddenly fell silent, as if the words stuck in his throat were burning hot.
Taking advantage of Caesar's silence, Mizuki Yume interrupted, "Because you need someone to take care of Miss Laila, right?"
Caesar suddenly looked up at Yumezuki Mizuki.
I dreamt that Mizuki smiled and responded.
He chuckled and said, "As expected, anyone who can stay by Bai Ze's side is no pushover."
"You're too kind. It's just that Mr. Caesar, your concern is rather obvious," Yumezuki Mizuki replied politely.
Caesar's gaze fell on Laila, looking at the girl's sleeping face, and he said softly, "If I have a weakness, it must be her."
