Sweet daily life of Little Tanuki and Qin Che in Love and Deep Space

"This golden sculpture of a demon is nice, boss, I'll take this one."

You squat at the stall, picking and choosing, and quickly finalize the price with the owner. This process is nothing more than:

Boss: "One price!"

You: "Boss, you're robbing me!"

Boss: "Young lady, how much do you want? Give me a fair price."

You: "This is the amount I can give."

Boss: "That won't do, I can't even get it at that price."

You: "Never mind then."

Turned to leave.

Boss: "Here, take it, consider it making friends with the young lady."

Qin Che: "......"

You turned your head and saw Qin Che staring in disbelief. You immediately presented the newly acquired demon sculpture to him like a treasure: "Qin Che, Qin Che, look what a great thing I bought! This demon is kind of handsome!"

Qin Che sighed, "I think you've completely adapted to this place. You're even better at bargaining than the shop owner."

You puffed out your chest and wagged your tail: "Of course! Even though I'm a little rich girl now, I still save where I should and spend where I should, right?"

Qin Che chuckled and reached out to ruffle the non-existent cat ears on your head: "I'll have to bring you along next time we discuss business, as a secret weapon for our covert operations."

You continue smugly: "My appearance fee is very high, but if you beg me, I can give you a friendly price."

"Hmm? A friend's price? Do you want us to recalculate?"

You chuckled and winked at him twice: "Hmm? What's the price? I don't understand it. Why don't you tell me?"

Qin Che smiled and pinched the tip of your nose: "What do you think?"

You pull his hand away, grab two of his fingers and rub them on your clothes: "Ouch, don't you mind the oil? Really... We'll talk about it when we get home... Let's go find the gems first!"

Qin Che was dragged along, but his lighthearted laughter still echoed in the alley for a long, long time...

"Qin Che, after such a long investigation today, I've found that Charon is much more peaceful than I imagined." Although we haven't found any information about the gem yet, you're still in a pretty good mood today.

"Oh? What was it like in your original imagination? Fighting and brawling everywhere, and you could lose your life if you weren't careful?" Qin Che held your hand tightly, making sure you weren't bumped into by pedestrians who suddenly darted out from the street.

"While it's not as exaggerated as you say, it's pretty close?"

"After all, this is a place for doing business, but if you feel it's not lively enough, the hunting reserve on the edge of N109 also offers you a chance to show off your skills."

You met Qin Che's gaze, winked at him, and said, "Then let's do it next time. Next time, let's team up and get some Brilliant Cores to play with."

After searching around again, the entire Charon area had been explored to a near degree.

Unfortunately, there were still no clues about the gem.

You stroked your chin, a suspicion creeping into your mind: "Qin Che, do you think that gemstone might have already been secretly sent out of District N109?"

"Don't forget, we've only scouted the ground area; we haven't searched the area above yet." Qin Che curled one corner of his lips and looked up at the sky.

"Huh? What does 'above' mean?" you asked, puzzled.

"Let's go. Once we've explored the last area, Mephisto should have the answer."

As soon as he finished speaking, you realized that Mephistopheles, who had been following you, had disappeared without a trace.
