Bai Luo only felt it was too outrageous. He just went out, how did it feel like... he had quite the luck with women?

No.

That word shouldn't be used to describe it.

Bai Luo shook his head, just about to say a few words to Komachi, but found that Komachi was already squatting by a withered tree not far away, not daring to face him directly, only able to cautiously steal glances at him with her peripheral vision.

Seeing this situation, Bai Luo couldn't bear to blame her anymore. After all, it seemed like he was the culprit for all of this.

Adjusting his expression, he walked towards Komachi.

Seeing Bai Luo walk over, Komachi's heart thumped. Before Bai Luo could speak, she bent her knees first and cried out.

"I'm sorry, I will take responsibility for you. Please don't tell Four Seasons Adult."

"???"

Three big question marks appeared above Bai Luo's head. Why did he feel like he was hearing this sentence more and more often recently?

"What responsibility are you taking? We didn't do anything."

Bai Luo glared at her and grumbled unhappily, "Also, what do you mean by 'please don't tell Four Seasons Adult'? That's something only an idiot like Cirno would do. Do I look like that kind of person?"

Komachi shook her head timidly, her gaze fixed on Bai Luo's soaked clothes.

"How about... you come to my place and change clothes?"

Hearing this, Bai Luo looked at her suspiciously.

If he didn't understand her personality, based on just this sentence and what happened earlier, he would suspect she was trying to learn Kaguya's trick, luring him home to play some 'happy games'.

Being looked at like that by Bai Luo, Komachi realized her words were wrong.

Bai Luo is a boundary youkai, it's easy for him to dry the liquid on his clothes, not to mention he has the gap and can go back anytime.

Thinking of this, she quickly explained, "It's not what you think, I... I just wanted to help you change clothes."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Komachi immediately realized she had said the wrong thing again, but it was irreversible.

"Help me change clothes?"

Bai Luo became even more confused and silently stepped back half a pace.

No.

He originally thought Komachi was big-chested and brainless,呸, big-chested and simple, but he didn't expect this guy to be deeper than anyone else.

"It's not like that! I didn't mean to help you change, I'll watch from the side, no no, I..."

The more Komachi spoke, the more flustered and outrageous she became, and by the end, she didn't know what she was saying anymore.

Finally, Komachi fell silent, kneeling on the ground without speaking, her eyes filled with tears, her red pupils seemed to be saying: "Please believe me."

"Don't worry, I didn't misunderstand."

Thinking carefully, Bai Luo still didn't think Komachi would be that kind of deeply hidden second version of Kaguya. Just now was probably due to being too nervous.

Bai Luo used a cleaning boundary on himself, and the liquid on his clothes gradually evaporated. Soon, his clothes were as good as new.

The atmosphere was too awkward now.

Bai Luo changed the subject, "Komachi, do you have a house?"

"Huh?"

Hearing this strange question, Komachi was puzzled, "Of course I have a house, why are you asking? It's in the Netherworld, Four Seasons Adult assigned it to me."

Hearing this, Bai Luo gave an awkward smile. When he first heard Komachi say she was going to her house, besides being shocked about the incident itself, he was also surprised that Komachi had a house.

He had previously thought that Komachi stayed at the Sanzu River 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, using the sky as a quilt and the ground as a bed.

After all, every time he came, Bai Luo could see Komachi lying by the withered tree or sleeping in the river-crossing boat.

At Bai Luo's request, Komachi took him to her house in the Netherworld.

The river-crossing boat was fast, and soon they reached the other side of the river.

This side was full of other shore flowers, a beautiful red sea of flowers stretching out.

"Where are you going?"

Seeing Bai Luo head in a certain direction after getting off the boat, Komachi immediately panicked, thinking he was mesmerized by the other shore flowers.

"Don't worry about me, I just want to take a look."

Bai Luo stopped in the middle of the former field of other shore flowers.

There was a small empty space here, just enough for one person to lie down, with plenty of room.

He gently touched the ground. There was a slightly darker print on the ground, like water stains that had dripped and then evaporated.

Were they tears?

He hadn't cried at the time, so it could only be Zi Ma's.

Komachi followed him and lowered her head silently at this scene, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes.

At that time, after she learned from Youmu that Bai Luo had died, she immediately thought of the time Bai Luo had come to her a while ago.

He asked: "Can you do me a favor tomorrow? Go to Hakugyokurou, help me deliver something to Youmu, and stay there for two days by the way."

She hadn't noticed anything at the time.

But thinking back now, there were too many things wrong. Bai Luo's face was pale, and although his magic power was deep, it was extremely unstable, like a water tower that could collapse at any moment.

However, she had actually believed his explanation and just thought he hadn't slept well.

If she hadn't been so foolish, if she had thought of it earlier and taken Bai Luo to Four Seasons Adult, perhaps this wouldn't have happened.

Thinking of this, a pang of sadness welled up in Komachi's heart, guilt filled her eyes, almost spilling out.

Suddenly, a finger traced across her eye socket, wiping away the tears.

"Why are you crying? I just came here to take a look. I'm standing here perfectly fine, are you planning to mourn me?"

Bai Luo said irritably.

"I'm sorry."

Komachi wiped away her tears and forced a smile.

Bai Luo turned around, took out his camera, and took two photos with a click. As a boundary power enveloped the area, new sprouts and flower buds grew on the ground, eventually growing into complete other shore flowers, filling the gap in the flower sea.

Under Komachi's guidance, the two left the sea of other shore flowers, bypassed the patrolling yin-yang, passed through the office area, and arrived at the residential area.

To Bai Luo's surprise, the house assigned to Komachi was in the best location.

Logically speaking, only those with high status in the Netherworld could live here, right?

Bai Luo subtly looked at the seemingly simple and honest Komachi. Although he had known for a long time that her strength was not weak, he didn't expect her status to be so high.

"Let's go, come in quickly."

Komachi placed her hand on the wall, and the door opened in response, surprising Bai Luo greatly.

This thing is still fingerprint unlocked?

Komachi seemed to remember something and suggested, "Bai Luo, record your identity on it, so you can come to my house anytime."

"Record? How do I record it?"

"Put your hand on it and inject your magic power."

She quickly fiddled with it a few times, and a small magic circle appeared on the door. As Bai Luo's magic power was injected, the information was successfully recorded.

After doing all this, Komachi immediately pulled Bai Luo into the house, panting as she peeked out the window.

"Why are you acting like a thief? Isn't this your house?"

Bai Luo was very confused.

"Because it's working hours right now. If Four Seasons Adult catches me, I'll be finished."

Komachi said seriously. The next moment, there was a 'bang bang bang' knock on the door.

98

Chapter 98: Komachi Reads a Doujinshi.

"Thump thump thump..."

The knocking continued, like the King of Hell's催命符 (death warrant).

Komachi held her breath, not daring to breathe, until the sound of footsteps outside the door disappeared, then she slightly relaxed.

"Was that Four Seasons just now?"

Bai Luo asked.

"I don't know."

Komachi's expression was ugly, "I feel like it was, but isn't Four Seasons Adult working at this time? Why would she come looking for me?"

Thinking of this, Komachi felt even more uneasy.

Did Four Seasons Adult happen to be checking attendance and found she wasn't there, so she came directly to the door?

No, it shouldn't be that unlucky.

Komachi took a deep breath and calmed down. It wasn't just Four Seasons Adult who usually knocked on her door, maybe she was overthinking it.

However, things went against her wishes. The more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen.

"Bang bang bang—!"

Without any warning, the knocking sound rang out again, followed closely by Shiki Eiki's voice.

"Open the door quickly, I heard your voice just now!"

Komachi was so startled by this suddenness that she almost lost half her soul. She glanced at Bai Luo beside her, his face pale, and begged and coaxed him to hide in the nearby cabinet.

If Four Seasons Adult found out she had secretly brought Bai Luo home, she would be lectured for at least three days and three nights.

"Click—"

Komachi opened the door, and standing outside was none other than Shiki Eiki, her gray-blue eyes glaring at her angrily.

"Running back to slack off during working hours, and taking so long to open the door."

"Sorry, sorry, my head was a bit dizzy, so I came back to take some medicine given by Yagokoro Eirin. I didn't hear Four Seasons Adult knocking just now."

Komachi quickly explained.

"Dizzy?"

Shiki Eiki frowned, her tone filled with concern, "How are you feeling now? Do you need me to find someone to check on you again?"

"Thank you Four Seasons Adult for your concern, I have already seen Yagokoro Eirin. You go ahead, I will go to work immediately after taking the medicine."

Komachi quickly refused. If a doctor from the Netherworld came over, her lie would be exposed.

Seeing that Komachi insisted on working even when she was sick, Shiki Eiki was deeply moved, and a sense of guilt arose in her heart.

She said softly, "If you're really uncomfortable, just take a day off today. I will arrange for other yin-yang to take over the lost souls at the Sanzu River. You get some good rest."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Komachi's eyes, but thinking of Bai Luo still in the cabinet, she quickly nodded: "Four Seasons Adult, you are too kind. Please go ahead and be busy, I won't disturb your work."

Seeing Komachi's face wasn't right, and she seemed a bit anxious, Shiki Eiki was confused, but she didn't think much of it and got up to leave.

The door closed again, and the sound of footsteps gradually faded until it disappeared. Only then did Komachi breathe a sigh of relief. She quickly went to the cabinet and opened it.

"You can come out now, Four Seasons Adult has left."

Bai Luo walked out of the cabinet, patted his butt, his face helpless, not understanding why he always had to hide in a cabinet whenever this situation occurred.

He glanced at the door.

Bai Luo had a bad feeling. Before, he would always get caught in such situations.

"Today is a day off, I can have a good sleep."

Komachi lay down on the tatami.

"Don't you usually sleep at the Sanzu River too? If you're sleeping there and at home, what's the difference?"

Bai Luo asked.
