Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 411 Rice Balls
"If someone in this world has to die in humiliation, why can't that person have the surname Misaka?"

Tears streamed down her face, falling onto the back of her hand, as Sarutobi Yuru murmured bitterly.

"Misaka Asatsuna, I will make your Misaka family pay back a thousandfold for everything my mother suffered!"

What kind of hypocritical kindness is that?!

Is it charity?
Is my mother just a dog kept by the Misaka family, kicked out of the house when they're tired of her, leaving her to beg for food on the streets and fawn over male dogs?
Is it because of your so-called "conscience" that you show a compassionate expression when you encounter the bastard born of that dog on the street, thinking that you can make up for the sins you have committed?

"Misaka Tsuchimon, I don't need your pretense. Letting Li Zheng protect me was the worst decision you ever made!"

Wiping away her tears, Sarutobi Yuro stood up and tidied her appearance with her sleeve, as if she had made up her mind.

She walked down the stairs step by step, her kimono slowly slipping off her body.

When she arrived on the first floor, she saw Li practicing his sword.

The sword techniques and movements bore the hallmarks of those taught at the Yagyu Dojo, but Li Zheng had made improvements upon them.

Swordsmanship... or rather, martial arts skills, the more you practice, the more problems you discover.

Although Li Zheng wasn't particularly talented in martial arts, he had been exposed to various specializations and expertise for a long time, which broadened his horizons and gave him his own understanding of martial arts.

To be honest, he didn't want to practice the sword techniques he had learned from Sarutobi Uroku's memories.

Because every time he practiced those moves, after a while, scenes that didn't belong to his memory would flash before his eyes.

He couldn't see clearly, but the content of the image made him instinctively resist.

So these past few days he has painstakingly modified his swordsmanship, forming his own routine, which allowed him to break free from that state and practice swordsmanship with peace of mind.

Turn around and chop down!
The demonic blade slashed through the air, leaving a red streak. Just then, Li Zheng saw Sarutobi Yuraku coming down from upstairs, and his displeasure instantly turned into disgust.

“If you want to take a shower, the bathroom is not far from you. Go in and then strip yourself like this.” Li Zheng turned around, not looking at her, and casually threw the demon knife away, letting it find a place to hang.

Sarutobi Yuro walked barefoot to Li Zheng, her eyes filled with shame and indignation. She had made a great decision to do this.

If she could, she wouldn't want to follow in her mother's footsteps.

“Mr. Li Zheng, am I not beautiful?” She walked up to Li Zheng, opened her arms and spun around, revealing her beautiful figure.

Wow, nice figure... Hey! If you're not going to look, can't you at least consider other people's feelings?
For example, me, Old Pu!

Ignoring the Eye of Preys's protests, Li Zheng closed his eyes tightly, his voice gradually turning cold: "If you don't want to die, you'd better disappear from my sight within three seconds!"

The flying demonic blade veered off course and flew back, its tip aimed at Sarutobi Yuro, seemingly poised to pierce her at any moment.

On the other side, Sakura, with Pink Poring wrapped around her, slowly approached, her expression unfriendly.

On the opposite side, two blood-red robots marched in unison, their shoulder parts flipping over to reveal four miniature plasma cannons.

Sarutobi Yuro was stunned. She hadn't expected that, with her looks, standing in front of Li Zheng, he wouldn't be moved at all!

The atmosphere froze instantly, and Sarutobi Amuro vaguely sensed that he might have made a mistake.

That is, not all men are like the ones she has seen since childhood, who can't resist beautiful women.

For some people, principles are more important than temptations like beauty!

"3!"

Li Zheng parted his lips slightly and uttered a cold, stiff number.

"2!"

Sarutobi Yuro turned her head and looked around, only to find that as Li Zheng counted down, the dangerous figures surrounding her were gradually approaching.

She had no doubt that once Li Zheng finished counting down, these terrifying things would tear her to pieces without hesitation!

Especially that knife!

She sensed an endless stench of blood from that knife!
With just a knife, she had the illusion that a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood was approaching!

She then remembered what it was about Li Zheng that had earned him such a fearsome reputation.

"Yes, yes, yes... I'm sorry!"

He bowed, apologized, turned around, and scurried away.

The combination of movements was so seamless that it seemed like she did it all the time.

She dashed into the bathroom, closed the door to shut out the malice that was targeting her, and then patted the rabbit and breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s so scary!

How could he possibly want to use such a terrifying and cold-blooded person to deal with Misaka Tsuchiemon?

Just crazy!

Now that she had calmed down, Sarutobi Yuraku was truly shocked and frightened, and an overwhelming sense of shame welled up from the depths of her heart. She stood behind the door for a long time before she finally calmed down.

Only then did she have the leisure to take a look at the restroom.

Washbasin, mirror, toilet, shower, bathtub.

A typical bathroom has everything one would expect; if it weren't for the limited space, she even suspected the owner might have included a sauna inside.

It's clear that Li Zheng has high standards for his quality of life.

After all, not everyone is willing to put out so many materials just to renovate a bathroom that is almost useless and takes up a lot of space.

Just as she was lost in thought, there was a knock on the door, and Li Zheng's voice came in.

"I forgot to tell you, you're not allowed to use the bathtub. If you want to take a shower, you can only use the showerhead. There's no hot water in the showerhead, so just make do."

"Okay...okay, got it! Thank you, thank you...thank you, Mr. Li!" Sarutobi Yuru was like a frightened cat; she was terrified whenever Li Zheng made a sound.

In that instant, she realized that with Li Zheng's current power and status, let alone a woman like her who was somewhat attractive.

Even supermodels from various countries, as long as Li Zheng nods, they will rush to wash themselves clean, apply perfume, tie themselves up, and throw themselves onto Li Zheng's bed.

Why would she be the one to seduce someone?

Laugh to death!

There's absolutely no chance, okay?
She had even initially entertained the idea that Li Zheng had ulterior motives towards her; it was truly...

Yeah, shameless!
……

"Tsk~" Li Zheng walked away from the bathroom door and shook his head.

This woman is obsessed with revenge.

But in the end, he's a pitiful person too...

Recalling certain scenes that had appeared before his eyes during sword practice, Li Zheng sighed again, no longer wanting to dwell on Sarutobi Yuro's rash behavior.

Arriving at the stove, Li Zheng examined the ingredients he had, selected a few, and began cooking.

Soon, the aroma of food filled the entire residence.

"hold head high?"

Sakura, drawn by the aroma, moved closer, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Li Zheng, anticipating tonight's extra treat.

"You're the glutton." Li Zheng laughed and reached out to flick Xiao Ying's nose.

Sakura rubbed her nose and continued to stare at the stove, drooling.

Li Zheng said helplessly, "Okay, you go wait over there first, I'll get you one too."

"Roar~~" Sakura cheered and flapped her wings as usual, flying away.

next moment.

Bang!
It crashed headfirst into the ceiling and fell vertically to the ground.

It overlooked the fact that Li Zheng had renovated the residence, and the ceiling was no longer as high as before, allowing it to fly freely.

Forty minutes later, Sarutobi Ayoraku put on a pink kimono and carefully opened the bathroom door.

Her expression relaxed only when she didn't see Li Zheng.

Even though she had taken a cold shower, her face was flushed, as if she had just finished a sauna.

I shuffled along the edge to the stairs, then jogged back to the third floor, only to find that the kimono I had worn earlier had been put away, neatly folded, and placed on the floor.

A metal tray had appeared on the clothes, containing two steaming rice balls.

She then realized that she had overlooked the aroma of food that had appeared in the air sometime earlier.

I slowly walked over, picked up the tray, and there was a piece of paper underneath it.

A passage was written on the paper in Mandarin Chinese:

The body is like a Bodhi tree, the mind like a clear mirror.

Keep it clean and dry from time to time, lest it get dusty.

As Sarutobi Yuraku picked up a rice ball and took a bite, the image that appeared before her eyes was not that heartless father, but her mother who had tied her hair up in the rainy night.

She broke down in tears again, sobbing as she whispered, "Mommy, I miss you so much..."
