Luo Bai was somewhat skeptical, and said with a smile, "Could it be that you're asking how we're getting along? That's possible."

Sure enough, as soon as Luo Bai finished speaking, Yukino's face began to heat up.

It seems Mom really values ​​Yukino. I wonder if she said anything else. I hope she didn't sell me out too much.

However, she has been sensible since childhood and would never reveal her dark past to Yukino, as it simply doesn't exist.

Shaking his head, Luo Bai immediately changed the subject.

"Tomorrow is Saturday, do you have any plans? Or are you going home for a visit?"

Yukino shook her head: "I'm not going back. I plan to stay home, read some books, and then play with the cat."

"That's it?"

"Otherwise what?" As she spoke, Yukino turned her head and saw Luo Bai pointing at her.

"What about me? Haven't I thought about us going on a date or something? It's a rare weekend, wouldn't it be a waste not to go out and have some fun?"

Yukino was stunned, not expecting Luo Bai to say that.

Seeing Yukino's face so close to his, Luo Bai naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity. He raised his hand and gently stroked the girl's cheek.

Volume 1: Chapter 24 It's you? (2/2)

As an engaged couple, Luo Bai naturally did not want to maintain the status quo.

He didn't want to let this opportunity slip by.

When Luo Bai's palm touched her cheek, Yukino's heart raced, and her hands on her lap clenched involuntarily.

However, they showed no sign of resistance.

In an instant, Luo Bai understood Yukino's thoughts and slowly moved closer.

Just as he was about to touch Yukino's rosy lips, a cell phone rang at an inopportune moment.

Yukino sat up straight with a start, just like a frightened little rabbit.

Turning her head to the side, Yukino whispered, "The phone..."

"..."

Although Luo Bai really wanted to ignore his phone and continue what he hadn't been able to do earlier, seeing Yukino's expression, he knew he wouldn't have the chance today.

Having no other choice, Luo Bai picked up his phone and saw the incoming caller ID.

Is this true calamity of the land?

Why is this guy calling?

Filled with confusion and frustration, Luo Bai stood up and answered the phone as he walked towards the balcony.

Before the other side, Makoto Mokujin, could speak, Luo Bai said directly, "You know what? If you had called even a minute later, I wouldn't be this angry."

Makoto Kazuki, on the other end of the phone, paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "It seems I've bothered Luo Bai-kun. I apologize in advance. But there's really no other way; more trouble has arisen. I'm not in Chiba right now, so I had to contact you."

"kindness?"

Luo Bai finally suppressed his emotions and asked, "Really?"

"Of course, I wouldn't say such things carelessly. If it weren't for the fact that I only have a handful of capable people under my command, and they've all been sent out on missions, I wouldn't want to trouble you. So, Mr. Luo Bai, could I ask you for a favor?"

After thinking for a few seconds, Luo Bai sighed and said, "Address."

Makoto Mokuzu smiled and gave the address, then said, "Thank you very much, Luo Bai-kun. I'll leave this to you this time. I'll send you a thank-you gift when I get back after I've finished my business here."

"Okay, I'll head over now."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Bai looked at Yukino on the sofa and said, "Something urgent comes up, I have to go out."

"Now?" Yukino glanced at the time and frowned. "About the family company?"

Luo Bai didn't reply, but said, "Don't worry, it's nothing serious. It's just that others aren't qualified to handle it. Don't worry, I'll be back in an hour."

Yukino nodded: "Then, then..."

Be careful. I saw the news report; the murderer hasn't been caught yet.

"It's not that exaggerated."

Waving his hand, Luo Bai went to the entrance to change his shoes and then set off.

After returning to the living room, Yukino lay down on the sofa and grabbed a cushion to cover her flushed cheeks.

"Just a hair's breadth away..."

......

After leaving the apartment, Luo Bai quickly headed to the address that Zhen Tu Huojin had sent him.

Using his flight ability and manipulating the refraction of air and light to conceal his movements, Luo Bai moved swiftly over the city.

In other words, he has high moral standards; otherwise, Luo Bai could have made a lot of use of the technology that allows him to become invisible.

Soon, Luo Bai arrived at his destination, a location on the edge of a residential area.

From above, Luo Bai immediately spotted two figures running quickly, one in front of the other.

Pursuing them was a male monster with a huge spider abdomen, eight spider legs, and a human upper body. On either side of its eyes were three glowing red eyes—a veritable spider-man monster.

The person who escaped was someone Luo Bai knew, Hachiman Hikigaya.

"This guy has really bad luck. He got hit by a car on the first day of high school, and now he's being chased by a monster in his second year."

As he spoke, Luo Bai raised his right hand, and a cluster of flames appeared in his hand, which then gradually extended and turned into a long spear formed from condensed flames.

Aim, throw.

On the ground, the monster chasing Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly felt a sense of crisis. It looked up and saw a streak of fire flying towards it, so it could only dodge quickly.

However, he was still pierced through the abdomen by a sudden attack, and he was pinned to the ground, ceasing all movement.

"what!!!!!"

The screams coming from behind made Hachiman Hikigaya, who was running away, pause in his tracks.

After confirming that he had indeed heard screams and that he hadn't been caught, Hachiman Hikigaya swallowed hard and slowly turned around.

Then he saw the monster that had been chasing him pinned to the ground by a flaming spear, unable to move.

The apostle kept touching the flaming spear with its clawed hands, trying to remove it from its body, but each touch brought excruciating pain, making it impossible for the monster to do so.

"Damn it! Who is it? Show yourself!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a familiar voice came from the sky to Hachiman Hikigaya.

"You did this yourself, do you expect me to forgive you? Shouting is pointless."

Seeing Luo Bai suddenly appear and land in front of him, Hachiman Hikigaya rubbed his eyes in astonishment: "Am I seeing things? Luo Bai?"

Turning around, Luo Bai greeted Hachiman Hikigaya with a smile: "Hey, you're really lucky, you managed to run into something like this."

Hachiman Hikigaya's deadpan eyes instantly drooped, and he said dejectedly, "Can you not say that? I felt like I was just close to death."

Luo Bai's appearance finally brought him a sense of relief.

Moreover, judging from this, it is clearly a surreal phenomenon, and Luo Bai should also be a superpowered person or something.

Waving his hand, Luo Bai looked at the monster over there and said, "Alright, let me take care of things here first, then I'll talk to you."

Then he took a step and came to the half-human, half-spider monster.

After observing carefully, Luo Bai spoke up: "Origin."

"Hey, does it matter?" the spider-man said with a sneer. "I didn't expect to run into a guy like you in less than half a day. I thought I had come to a good place with an endless supply of food."

"Okay, I understand."

Luo Bai nodded and pointed to the flaming spear he had just thrown.

Under his control, the flames from the spear instantly spread to the Spider-Man's entire body, enveloping him in a raging inferno.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

Screams rang out again, but without the spear's restraint, the spider-man in the flames tried to attack Luo Bai in front of him with all his might.

If you can kill this person before you die and get food to eat, you can recover smoothly!

Unfortunately, before the sharp spider legs could even pierce Luo Bai, they were severed by a transparent gust of wind, causing the spider man to lose his balance and fall to the ground.

The flames intensified, and this spider-man was clearly not as strong as the ghost Luo Bai had encountered before; he stopped breathing in the blink of an eye.

Volume 1: Chapter 25 The Matter Resolved (1/2)

Looking at the pile of charred remains on the ground, Hachiman Hikigaya swallowed hard and asked with a hint of fear, "This... is it over? Is he dead?"

"Yes, what else?"

Taking out his phone and dialing Zhen Tu Huojin's number, Luo Bai said, "Don't tell me you want to have a chat with him about life?"

Hachiman Hikigaya shook his head repeatedly: "It's good enough that I survived. I don't want to see this kind of guy again."

"I really can't guarantee that. This is the second time I've seen it, and it's a different species."

Just then, Zhen Tu Huojin's phone call went through.

"Hey, I've got it sorted out on my end."

"All done? That was quick." Makoto Makoto waved his hand, blowing away the two petrified monsters in front of him, and said with a smile, "Thank you so much for today, Luo Bai-kun. Were there any casualties?"

Luo Bai looked around and said, "The person this monster was chasing happened to be my classmate. I saved him. As for whether anyone was killed before him, I don't know."

"I think it's probably over; the other party just appeared not long ago."

Luo Bai nodded, feeling relieved that no one else had been hurt.

"There's another problem. I made quite a commotion here, but no one noticed. Did you do something about it?"

“Yes, it was me who did it, just a little interference magic.” Makoto said with a smile, “At a distance, this is the best I can do. You don’t need to worry about the rest, Luo Bai. I will send someone to handle it. You can take your classmates and leave now.”

"Don't you need to erase memories or anything?"

When he heard the words "memory erasure," Hachiman Hikigaya couldn't help but shudder.

"Haha, under normal circumstances, ordinary people who see this should be dealt with, but since this is your classmate, Luo Baijun, then you can decide. It's not a big problem."

"Okay, I'll think about it. I'll hang up now."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Bai looked at Hachiman Hikigaya and said, "What are you doing out so late at night? Are you going back now?"

Scratching his head, Hachiman Hikigaya looked around and said, "I came out to buy a drink, but I ended up here. Hmm... I'd better buy something first before going home, otherwise Komachi will definitely ask me if she sees me coming back empty-handed."

"Buying drinks? Let's go together then. You buy me a can of Coke as payment, how about it?"

"No problem, let's go, the convenience store isn't far from here!"

Hachiman Hikigaya was naturally overjoyed and immediately left with Luo Bai.

Less than a minute after the two left, two professionals in black suits arrived, cleaned up the remains of the monster, and then...

They cleaned up the marks on the ground and left quickly.

Luo Bai and Hachiman Hikigaya bought some drinks at the convenience store and then came out.

Luo Bai opened a can of cola, took a sip, and looked at Hachiman Hikigaya beside him. He said, "Let's go, we can talk as we walk. I know you have a lot of questions. Tsk tsk, why did you have to save the person? I originally thought it would be some kind of hero saving a damsel in distress."

"I'm so sorry that I'm male."

After making a sarcastic remark, Hachiman Hikigaya countered, "And you're even thinking of playing the hero and rescuing the damsel in distress. Aren't you afraid Yukino will be angry if she finds out?"

Shaking his head, Luo Bai said, "Ah, that's true, but I didn't want Yukino to know, after all, these things are dangerous."

"So you really were keeping it from her. Fine, whatever, it's none of my business anyway. Can you tell me what that thing is?"

"I don't know the specifics, but it's not from this world; it came from another world."

Then, Luo Bai briefly told Hachiman Hikigaya about his encounter with the man-eating demon.

Hachiman Hikigaya suddenly realized, "So you've already solved the case from before! Then why didn't the guardian of this area contact the police and tell them that the culprit has been caught?"

"I asked him, and he's not here today. It should be handled quickly. Also, some case details need to be rewritten to avoid any loopholes being found."

Luo Bai wouldn't pay too much attention to these things; he would only help occasionally. Worrying about so many things would be exhausting.
