Collapse: Start as a Mimic Herrscher

Lu Ren woke up from his dream and looked around as usual.

Then he walked to the table, picked up the glass of water there and took a sip of water.

The cool liquid entered his dry throat, and he suddenly felt alive again.

After drinking the water, he went to the window and stared at the white clouds floating in the wind outside.

"Host, what's wrong with you these days? You don't even go for morning exercises." The system asked puzzledly.

Lu Ren came back to his senses, "Why do you even need to ask? How could I have the face to go there after something like that happened?"

Lu Ren was very depressed, and his hands tightly gripping the windowsill showed his restlessness.

"Host, you didn't mean it. Go and apologize." The system advised.

Lu Ren rolled his eyes at the system. "If apologies are useful, then why do we need the police?"

"That's not right, host. Look, no one seems to know about your situation. That means Fu Hua hasn't told anyone else. There's still room for improvement in your relationship."

There was a knock on the door.

"Okay, okay, let's talk later. Someone is coming." Lu Ren stopped the system from talking, walked to the door and opened it.

The blue-haired girl smiled at him from outside the door, "Good morning, Lu Ren."

"Ah, hahaha, good morning, Baili Yu." Lu Ren scratched his hair exaggeratedly, "What's the matter?"

"Hey, host, your face is very stiff." The system reminded.

Lu Ren didn't know that his face was not stiff, but ever since that incident, Lu Ren always felt a little unnatural in front of Baili Yu.

It feels like I've let a girl down.

"Lu Ren, do you still remember that box?" Baili Yu blinked.

Lu Ren thought about it and remembered the box with the World Snake logo on it.

Is this the box that Xiao Hei gave me?"

Baili Yu nodded, "Yes, I want to hand it in."

Lu Ren raised his eyebrows. "Hand it over, to whom?"

Baili Yu thought about it for a while, then looked at Lu Ren with an embarrassed look and said, "That person's name is too long and difficult to pronounce. I can't remember it."

"Well, what does this person look like?" Lu Ren turned and asked about his appearance.

"She has long red hair, red eyes, and a monocle!"

The little prince of judging people, Lu Ren, came online again. After thinking for a while, he said, "Is her name Elizabeth "Changguang" McSmith?"

"Yes, that's it!"

"It's not very long." Lu Ren muttered to himself.

Baili Yu blushed and said angrily, "What's wrong? The director's name is really hard to remember."

Lu Ren looked at Baili Yu in surprise, and vaguely sensed something was wrong.

He quickly said, "Just give Bailiyu to her. I have no objection."

Baili Yu walked to Lu Ren and looked at him. Her bright eyes seemed to contain a galaxy of stars.

Lu Ren withdrew his gaze as if guilty, turned his head and said: "If there is nothing else, I will go in first."

Baili Yu stared at Lu Ren silently and said, "You are injured."

Lu Ren waved his hand, "Nothing, you saw it wrong."

For a long while, Baili Yu didn't say anything.

Lu Ren secretly turned his head and saw Baili Yu's worried look and tears in her eyes.

At that moment, Baili Yu's reflection entered Lu Ren's mind, and her memories resurfaced.

"...Okay, actually this is what happened..." Lu Ren said with a sigh.

Let it be shameful, let it be infamous.

A few minutes later, Baili Yu understood the cause and end of the incident.

She held her chin and thought about how to solve Lu Ren's problem.

"I heard that the monitor seems to be worried about something recently. If you, Lu Ren, can help the monitor solve her problem, I believe she will definitely forgive you."

Lu Ren looked at himself, then looked at Baili Yu and said, "When did you develop the illusion that I could solve a person's problems?"

"But Lu Ren, you really helped me to untie the knot in my heart." Baili Yu said.

"That was just a coincidence. I believe you will be able to get over it after some time."

"Lu Ren, do you think it's easy to get into someone's heart?" Baili Yu stared at Lu Ren with a sharp gaze.

Lu Ren's eyes were uncertain, "This... I..."

Baili Yu said in a deep voice: "I only know that you, Lu Ren, came at that time, you walked into my heart and pulled me out of the abyss."

Baili Yu murmured to himself, "I can still dream about their faces. It was me who hurt them. When I needed help the most, it was you who extended a hand."

Lu Ren felt as if his heart was stabbed, with an indescribable pain.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word to comfort Baili Yu.

How exactly did he view Baili Yu's feelings for him? Lu Ren's heart was like a ball of wool that he couldn't untie.

"Oh, Lu Ren hasn't come for many days. Is he out on a mission again?" Kiana leaned on the sofa and complained to Mei beside her.

"Kiana, you always talk about Lu Ren. People who don't know would think he has some relationship with you." Mei said with a smile.

Kiana hugged Mei and said, "No, Mei will always be my favorite person!"

Mei had already gotten used to Kiana's startled behavior. She calmly pushed Kiana away and said, "Okay, okay, I get it."

After Kiana's daily intimacy with Mei, she turned her head to Bronya who was holding a tablet.

"What new game is this? It looks like fun!" Kiana watched Bronya's operation and became playful for a moment.

"I won't tell you." Bronya turned around, leaving Kiana with a cold back.

"No, Bronya, you can't do this!" Kiana grabbed Bronya's shoulders and shook her hard.

"Bronya refuses unless you kneel down and beg me!"

Kiana loosened her grip and sat down next to Bronya angrily, "I'll find it myself. Are you satisfied?"

"…Is this game called Honkai Impact 3?" Kiana looked at the name on her phone and always felt that it was a bit too weird.

At this moment, the door was kicked open from the outside with a bang. Mei looked at Fu Hua outside the door in amazement, and she couldn't even get out the name of "squad leader".

"I heard the sound of Honkai Impact 3rd here!"

Fu Hua's glasses were shining white, and her whole temperament was completely different from usual.

Kiana shrank her head and moved towards Mei's position in fear.

Bronya walked into the room silently.

…………

"It has been rejected for the 30th time. Baili Yu, let's take a break." Lu Ren said weakly, holding the draft paper on the table.

"No, we haven't found a way to solve the squad leader's worries yet." Baili Yu shook his head.

"But I don't think this problem can be solved at all!"
