As someone who prioritizes killing others, I'm forced to stream a death game.

"Get up, get up...!"

Yao Qing struggled to get up, her eyes barely open.

I just accidentally fell back onto the bed, but for some reason it felt like I was stuck in a swamp and couldn't climb out.

Seeing her constantly writhing, Liu Ren sighed.

Ugh, what a disgrace.

And this is still a person who has fallen into the trap of evil.

I can't handle staying up all night.

and……

Doesn't this guy have any self-awareness about his current state?

Out of politeness, Liu Ren felt he should look away.

But in order to wake her up, he still reached out and grabbed Yao Qing's arm, trying his best not to let his eyes wander around.

Liu Ren lifted Yao Qing up as easily as he would a kitten.

"Well……"

Forced to turn on, Yao Qing finally felt her mind clear up a bit.

"Good morning~"

She yawned, looking like she hadn't slept well.

"It's getting late, get up quickly."

Liu Ren's peripheral vision involuntarily caught sight of his clothes being stretched out.

Then I noticed a detail.

He clicked his tongue, let go of her hand, and prepared to turn and leave the room.

As a result, Yao Qing, who had lost her support, immediately decided to lie back down.

This forced Liu Ren to immediately intervene again, grabbing her arm and forcing her to stand up.

"Hurry up and change your clothes."

"I got it..."

Yao Qing's mind was still a little fuzzy. She stretched and even used a little bit of the strange creature's power to fully wake herself up.

"Hmm, it seems that even if you become a possessed being, you can't just stay up all night like that..."

Yao Qing muttered something to herself, then noticed that Liu Ren's actions were strange.

He was standing sideways in front of me.

"Hurry up and get dressed, wash up, and then go out."

Noticing that Yao Qing's tone had returned to normal, Liu Ren turned and walked towards the door.

Yao Qing subconsciously replied, "Mmm..."

Then he looked down at his own reflection.

Although Liu Ren's crew neck shirt was quite large, it was just right for her to use as pajamas.

But for comfort, she casually tossed her bra, which should have been inside, aside while resting last night.

So now we are in a wonderful vacuum state.

Of course, only the upper body.

But it's also very dangerous.

After all, the clothes she was wearing were really thin.

Realizing what had happened, Yao Qing blushed slightly: "Hmm... I was a little careless..."

But that’s about it.

Anyway, the invitation was made so clearly last night.

I'll be giving out some more perks today.

It doesn't seem to matter much?

As a shrewd woman, you should be bold and make your move when you meet someone you like.

Although I'm not used to it.

But she had also seen others suffer the consequences of putting on airs.

Of course, I will not repeat the same mistake.

After changing back into all the clothes she had taken off the night before, Yao Qing lowered her head and sniffed her collar, frowning with some disgust.

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Liu Ren, who had already changed his shoes and was about to leave, casually asked.

"The clothes smelled strongly of smoke and alcohol."

"Who told you not to bring a change of clothes? Just bear with it for now."

"Sigh, it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision," Yao Qing said sheepishly.

In fact, she was already mentally prepared to be rejected when she asked to stay overnight.

After all, Liu Ren looked like a difficult person to deal with.

Moreover, Liu Mucheng, that brother-obsessed girl, doesn't seem like she'd give in easily.

As Yao Qing hadn't expected, both of her difficult assumptions were wrong.

Liu Ren was surprisingly easy to talk to.

Liu Mucheng...

Surprisingly, he's a good person too.

"Don't make such impulsive decisions next time."

"Understood! Next time I'll be fully prepared!"

"It's best if there's no next time."

"Hey, why? Do you dislike me that much?"

“It’s not about disliking it, I’m just not used to having acquaintances stay overnight at my house,” Liu Ren replied.

Similar incidents have rarely occurred in the past.

In addition, there was the experience of living with Liu Mucheng in a cramped rented apartment for a long time...

This led to his subtle resistance to bringing someone home.

It's just a meal, so it's fine.

Staying overnight is a bit... well, that's not right.

It feels weird.

"Is it because Mu Cheng is keeping an eye on things?"

"No, it's simply because I'm not used to it."

"Okay~ then next time I'll have to consider places like hotels."

"Hmm," Liu Ren responded softly, neither confirming nor denying it.

"Or you can come to my house." Yao Qing then added the second half of the sentence, which changed the meaning of the whole conversation.

"I don't want to go to other people's homes casually."

"Not casually! It could have been planned in advance~"

"I didn't want it to be premeditated."

After wandering around the neighborhood, Liu Ren couldn't find many breakfast shops that were still open.

Many shops have closed down.

Only a very small number chose to reopen.

It's probably for safety reasons.

Liu Ren randomly picked a shop and ordered a bowl of noodles.

"What do you want?" he asked Yao Qing, turning to her.

"The same as always," Yao Qing said familiarly.

"Okay, boss, two bowls of noodles with minced meat sauce."

"it is good--"

Because we had carried out many missions together.

So there's a lot of experience in having breakfast together early in the morning.

Liu Ren had figured out Yao Qing's preferences.

This person's taste preferences are similar to my own.

They all like spicy food.

After you finish eating, have another bottle of yogurt.

I'll be full of energy all morning.

"A total of sixty-eight."

After the boss finished making the noodles, he said to Liu Ren.

"The price has gone up again."

Liu Ren made a conversation while sweeping the money over.

"Yeah, there's nothing we can do about it." The shopkeeper sighed. "The taxes have gone up again recently, and there's this 'safety tax' too. What a load of crap! I've lived in Hualan City for so long, and this is the first time I've ever heard of having to pay taxes for my personal safety!"

He certainly wouldn't spend his own money to run a business.

As a result, naturally, the price of everything went up.

Furthermore, the rate of price increases is progressive over time.

"There's nothing we can do about it, after all, security costs have indeed increased a lot now," Yao Qing said after hearing her boss's complaint.

In the past, police stations only cost a few dollars to maintain order.

Compared to now, hiring people to fight the monsters is child's play.

"That makes sense, but I can't accept it!" the boss muttered. "The cost of all kinds of raw materials has gone up. If I can't make money, I'll close down tomorrow."

"..."

I was already thinking about closing the door as soon as I opened it.

The world has indeed become much more difficult.

Liu Ren didn't say anything more, but simply sat down in a corner with Yao Qing and started eating the noodles.

"The taste is a bit lacking," Yao Qing said after taking a few bites.

"Yes, indeed." Liu Ren nodded.

"Although I know the price increase is understandable, I still feel it's not fair," Yao Qing said casually. "It would be great if there were breakfast shops that were both cheap and delicious, but unfortunately I haven't found many over the years."

Hearing her say that, Liu Ren suddenly remembered a noodle shop he used to frequent.

So much time has passed in the blink of an eye.

I wonder how that store is doing now.
