Witch Special

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Lin Zhenxi returned to the bedroom with the white hot steam from the bathroom. Water droplets all over her body were still dripping onto the floor. It was obvious that she didn't wipe it with a towel at all.

"Yanyanyanyan, where is my wand? Give it to me quickly." Lin Zhenxi walked over, leaving behind a row of footprints that clearly showed the arch of his foot.

The black cat stretched out its claws and hooked Lin Zhenxi's bracelet with it. Then it swung its claws and threw the bracelet towards Lin Zhenxi. The bracelet found its own direction in mid-air and sent itself to Lin Zhenxi's wrist. The magic wand popped out from it and fell into Lin Zhenxi's palm.

Lin Zhenxi flicked her wand, and a wave of heat rolled up from her body, sweeping away all the moisture and dampness. Her hair and body hair became dry and smooth. Lin Zhenxi shook her hair, and the slightly purple ends of her hair rubbed against her tailbone, causing a slight itch.

So before getting dressed, she put her hair up and used the magic wand as a hairpin, inserting it into her hair. The magic wand also considerately shortened itself, making the handle smooth, and it really looked no different from a black hairpin.

Since she'd been brought back yesterday by the "company's" housekeeper, she hadn't made a mess in the room. She didn't need Yanyan's help, easily finding all her clothes by the bed. After putting them on, one by one, from small to large, Lin Zhenxi finally grabbed the personal terminal by the bed and prepared to call her dear father and mother to let them know they were safe and to check on the previous generation's trumpet training. After two years, their precious daughter, who had been stranded in another world, had finally returned??ヽ(°▽°)ノ?

However, when Lin Zhenxi picked up the personal terminal that also served as a mobile phone, and was about to dial a number she hadn't contacted for a long time to report her safety to the two people she cared about most in the main world, her eyes suddenly fixed on one place.

"Yanyan," Lin Zhenxi suddenly called out, "Do you remember the date and year when this commission started?"

"Remember, May 6, 2033, meow. That day is Wednesday."

"So how long have we been in this other world?"

"706 days, meow. Almost two years."

"But Yanyan, look, this is the date in the main world." Lin Zhenxi turned over his personal terminal and showed the time part to Black Cat.

【2033-7-15，09：42。】

"How could this be, meow? Why has only more than two months passed in the main world?" Yanyan also widened her eyes, feeling incredible.

Lin Zhenxi had calmed down by this time. After thinking about it for a while, she immediately came to a conclusion that was probably correct.

After all, there are really not many possible options.

"Perhaps, the time flow rate in Uncle's world is ten times faster than that in the main world."

But why is this happening? The time scale between the other worlds Lin Zhenxi had visited before and the main world was always 1:1. The amount of time spent there was equivalent to the amount of time spent in the main world. She had never experienced such a huge difference in the speed of time flow.

If you think about it carefully, this situation was already obvious when they were in the other world, but Lin Zhenxi just didn't think about it in that direction. After all, aliens and time travelers have only appeared in the last ten years, at most a little over ten years, but Saitama has been living in that other world for more than twenty years. Even if Saitama was one of the first time travelers, the time doesn't match.

If the time flow rate between the two worlds is one to ten, then Saitama's time travel may have been more than two years ago, which was the time when the time travel and transfer phenomena began to appear on a large scale. This possibility is very high.

Forget it, never mind. It has nothing to do with Lin Zhenxi anyway. Let’s just treat it as an unsolved mystery.

Furthermore, the fact that time flows faster in the alternate world than in the main world is beneficial to Lin Zhenxi. After all, Lin Zhenxi has always worried that if she stays in the alternate world for too long, upon returning to the main world, she will find that everything has changed and everyone has become unfamiliar. The main world is her spiritual home, and she doesn't want every return to the main world to be like returning to another world, with no trace of her existence left.

If each trip to the other world lasted for several years, it would be equivalent to a few months in the main world, so it wouldn't be too much of a delay. After all, going home once a year was a common occurrence, and not seeing each other for a few months wouldn't make the relationship fade; in fact, the longing for each other would become even stronger.

Let's take university monks as an example. They go home once every six months, and every time they do, they're generally greeted warmly by their parents, showered with delicious food and treats. However, this enthusiasm usually doesn't last more than a week. Once the outburst of emotion subsides, parents get furious at seeing university monks spend their days curled up in bed, on the sofa, scrolling through their phones, and never socializing. Their attitude towards them plummets from VIP guests to something worse than a dog. They're often beaten with feather dusters, urged to put their phones down, go out for a walk, meet old friends, or even take out the trash.

I don't know which one is the trash, maybe it's the two brothers...

Shifting his focus from time, Lin Zhenxi used his personal terminal to call his parents. The call was quickly connected, and the next second, the faces of Lin's parents appeared on the screen together.

Both of them seemed to want to talk to Lin Zhenxi, but in the end, Lin's mother had the upper hand and pushed Lin's father to the back.

Mother Lin: "Oh my god, who is this? Isn't this my eldest daughter? She came out after only two months? That's pretty fast."

Lin Zhenxi had always described her job as one that required frequent travel and secrecy. Originally, this was because explaining her trip to another world was difficult, but it seemed her family members had taken her for a special talent specifically trained by the state. After all, what ordinary person's job required secrecy, even from their closest relatives? It must be a very important project.

Lin Zhenxi: "Emmmm, I was lucky enough to get an easy job. I came back as soon as it was done. Mom, is everything okay at home?"

Mother Lin: "Everything is going well. The delicatessen downstairs has opened a branch. His daughter is now the store manager and seems to be looking for a son-in-law. However, the girl said she doesn't want to get married. It seems that she hasn't found the right person yet. Sooner or later, everyone has to get married."

Lin Zhenxi:......

Well, here they come again. They are really urging marriage in new ways, and they are even starting to be roundabout.

Lin Zhenxi: "I've lived here for ten years. How would I know those people you mentioned? Why should I care about them? What about you two? Do you have any activities recently? Are you planning to go out and have fun? Your daughter got a lot of bonus this time, she can't spend it all. Do you want to support you a little?"

Mother Lin: "No need. Your parents have enough money to spend. There's no need to ask their daughter for money. Just save your money and use it as a dowry when you get married."

Lin Zhenxi: "Here it comes again. I've already said that my line of work is not suitable for marriage. This is how my life will be. I plan to spend my whole life with cats. You two should hurry up and try to have a second child while you can still have children. I also want to try what it feels like to be a sister."

As she spoke, Lin Zhenxi picked up Yanyan. Yanyan naturally drooped, stretching herself into a long cat, and meowed at the two elders on the other side of the video.

Yanyan: Cute cat＞▽＜

However, unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Zhenxi brought up this topic, she noticed that her mother's expression looked a little strange.

Mother Lin: "My daughter, do you really want a brother or sister? Seriously? You're not just saying it casually."

A big exclamation mark appeared above Lin Zhenxi's head. Something was happening.

Lin Zhenxi: "Why...what's going on? My dad is still as powerful as ever?"

At this time, on the other side of the video, Lin's father patted his wife's shoulder and said, "Let me talk."

Mother Lin nodded and gave up the camera.

Lin's father's face occupied the center of the screen. His expression was serious as he said to Lin Zhenxi, "Dear, to be honest with you, your mother and I are planning to adopt a child."

"Hey, you didn't give birth to your own child."

"Nonsense, your mother and I are both fifty years old. If it had been ten years earlier, there would still be hope. Now you give birth yourself, aren't you afraid that something will happen to your mother?"

"Ten years ago... I asked you to have it ten years ago... but you didn't want it..." Lin Zhenxi whispered, changing the subject again, "Dad, what do you mean by adoption?"

"That's the child of a former brother of mine. He's the only one in his family, and he's been raising the child alone since divorcing his wife. Now, he's disappeared, leaving behind a fourteen-year-old daughter who just started her third year of junior high school. Her mother left the country a long time ago, and we don't have her contact information. The girl isn't close to her mother, and they haven't even called each other in all these years."

"Now she only has an elderly grandfather living in her hometown in the countryside. It's not realistic for the little girl to live with her grandfather. So your mother and I decided to take the little girl home and live with her. We'll then ask her grandfather to transfer the custody. From now on, she will be our second daughter."

"Anyway, you said you've already moved out on your own, so if your mom and I raise another child, we'll have someone to keep us company in the future. What do you think?"

This... what can I say? It's just a non-blood sister, skipping the most torturous human cub stage. How wonderful! As long as this girl doesn't have any bad habits, no psychological problems, and isn't a malicious person, this outcome is actually much better than letting my parents have another child.

"So, where is my new sister now? Can I go home one of these days?"

"It's upstairs, they've already moved in." Dad Lin looked serious, but he didn't look at the camera. Instead, he seemed to find the painting hanging on the wall very beautiful.

"So you've already finished the job, then why are you still asking for my opinion?" Lin Zhenxi's expression fell.

I haven't seen you for two months, and now I have a new sister who is already in the third grade of junior high school. What should I do? Urgent, waiting online.
