Does this work too?

"Yes...what a coincidence..."

However, her clenched fists were already trembling slightly.

At this moment, Kaji Ryosuke noticed the problem, frowned, and looked at Katsuragi Misato and Leng Mo in confusion, asking, "Aren't you two together?"

Upon hearing this, Misato Katsuragi couldn't hold back any longer. Pointing at Leng Mo like a complaining schoolchild, she was full of grievance and resentment, "Who was with this guy! He's so infuriating!"

"Oh?" Kaji Ryosuke looked at Leng Mo, who was grinning from ear to ear, with a strange expression, full of doubt. "So who are you people?"

Now Asuka, who was holding the flowers, also cast a curious glance at them. She had originally thought these people had come to welcome her, but it turned out there was another reason.

Seeing Asuka's puzzled look, Leng Mo immediately said happily, "We're here on behalf of NEVR to pick up Asuka! That's for sure!"

"How is this possible! You are NEVR, then what am I?" Misato Katsuragi shouted frantically.

Upon hearing this, Leng Mo's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he looked at Katsuragi Misato with a righteous air.

"You say you're NEVR, then let me ask you, do you have EVA?"

"It's all your fault..."

"So that means there aren't any! Do you have any NEVR employees?"

"It's all your fault!!"

"So that's all? Hehehehehe!"

Leng Mo laughed wickedly, thoroughly enjoying the look of Misato Katsuragi's anger and helplessness.

Damn it, it's all your fault for stealing both the people and EVA!

Misato Katsuragi was speechless; she had nothing more to say.

Finally, as if all her strength had been swallowed up by misfortune, she stood there dejected, as if endless sorrow had settled in her heart, and an indescribable sense of loss enveloped her.

She tried to say something, but only managed a few weak sighs. At that moment, she seemed to become the embodiment of loneliness, trapped in her own world, unable to escape.

It was as if life had lost its meaning for her.

In the end, he could only look pitifully at Kaji Ryosuke, his eyes filled with pleading.

"..."

Kaji Ryosuke looked bewildered, completely unaware of what was going on. When did NEVR stop having even EVA? What happened while he was away?

Leng Mo leaned in with a comical expression, "You don't have EVA, you don't have employees, and you still dare to call yourself NEVR? That's hilarious! Let me tell you, we are the real NEVR! We are not some kitten or puppy that can impersonate us!"

Shinji: "That's right!"

Leng Mo: "We have EVA!"

Shinji: "That's right!"

Leng Mo: "We still have countless employees!"

Shinji: "That's right!"

Leng Mo: "Your backhand is weak, your forehand is poor, your footwork is loose, your reactions are slow, not a single movement is decent. You think you can compete with me like this? Dream on!"

Shinji: "That's right!"

Misato Katsuragi: "..."

Kaji Ryosuke glanced subtly at the dejected Katsuragi Misato, while Asuka beside him also looked on with a knowing expression.

Although I don't know what happened, this was a complete defeat.

Chapter 655 Running Away After Causing Trouble Is So Fuck-Fun

"what is happening!?"

Seeing Leng Mo and Shinji mocking Katsuragi Misato, Asuka's eyes were filled with confusion. She opened her mouth and asked loudly, while standing still and staring at Leng Mo and Katsuragi Misato. She seemed to want to say something but hesitated, not knowing where to begin her question.

Upon hearing this, Misato Katsuragi sighed melancholy, her voice filled with an unspoken sense of vicissitude, and she became slightly hunched over.

"That's a long story."

"Then let's make this long story short." Asuka looked at Misato Katsuragi speechlessly, her lips twitching.

"It's hard to describe in words..."

"..."

Can you please stop talking nonsense!

Asuka was starting to lose her composure. Looking at Misato Katsuragi, she didn't know what to say. Her eyes were filled with conflict, and even the corner of her eye twitched involuntarily.

"Okay, I'll lay it all out. I've come here to take you to join them."

When Misato Katsuragi saw Asuka looking at her like that, she awkwardly confessed, feeling incredibly embarrassed.

"Huh?" Asuka was stunned, her mouth agape in bewilderment as she stared ahead, unable to process what was happening.

Upon hearing this, Kaji Ryosuke frowned, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes as he stared at Katsuragi Misato. After a moment of careful consideration, he asked, "What's going on?"

"Simply put, these guys poached all of NEVR's staff, even EVA was taken away. Now NEVR is practically dead." Misato Katsuragi pointed at the smug Leng Mo and resignedly explained, her face filled with dejection.

“This…” Kaji Ryosuke looked at Leng Mo in astonishment, his eyes filled with surprise and disbelief. He then looked Leng Mo and Shinji up and down, and couldn’t help but rub his chin.

Leng Mo grinned and happily beckoned the extras behind him to leave, while simultaneously waving his hand to summon the luxury car next to him.

"Let's go back and talk about it slowly. Since Miss Misato is so sensible, we can discuss the treatment later."

Upon hearing this, no one present objected, and they followed Leng Mo into the car.

Leng Mo led everyone to the courtyard of Shinji's old home.

Then, as soon as Misato Katsuragi, Asuka, and Ryosuke Kaji entered the room, they saw Ritsuko Akagi and Yui Ikari chatting happily in the living room.

"..."

A moment of silence fell over the room, as if the air itself had become still.

Kaji Ryosuke naturally recognized Akagi Ritsuko, and turned to look at Katsuragi Misato, who was dumbfounded, with a subtle expression.

then……

"Why are you here?!"

Misato Katsuragi screamed, pointing at Ritsuko Akagi with shock and confusion, as if her worldview had been shaken.

Sitting in the living room, Ritsuko Akagi took a sip of tea with a friendly expression before smiling sheepishly and saying, "Miri, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for ages. I knew you wouldn't stay there any longer. I thought so too."

"What the hell! What's going on! We were over there yesterday! How come you're here today! What's worse is that you didn't even call me!! I thought you took the day off for something important, is this what you call important?!"

Standing on the wooden floor, Misato Katsuragi was furious. She stomped her feet frantically, pointed her finger at Ritsuko Akagi with trembling hands, and kept babbling on and on.

Ritsuko Akagi glanced sideways awkwardly, avoiding eye contact, and said with an embarrassed smile, "There was nothing I could do. You know, there's not a single person buying groceries over there. If we didn't run, we wouldn't even have a place to eat..."

"..."

What you said makes such a good point that I can't refute it.

Misato Katsuragi was speechless for a moment. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say it. In the end, she could only sigh helplessly.

"Sigh... So what exactly is going on?"

In the end, she had no choice but to go up and sit with Ritsuko Akagi, while Asuka and Ryosuke Kaji also silently went up and sat around the table in the living room.

And so, a new round of discussion began.

Asuka looked around at the people and was the first to raise her hand and ask, "Can someone explain to me what our situation is right now?"

Misato Katsuragi curled her lip. "That's the situation. There's no one left at NEVR. Everyone's here."

Asuka: "Ah... so does this have any impact?"

Leng Mo: "It has no impact. Just continue doing what you were doing. It's just a change of location."

Asuka: "Fine..."

At this moment, Shinji subtly asked Leng Mo in a low voice, "Ah Mo, isn't Ritsuko a mistress? Is it really okay?"

Upon hearing this, Leng Mo felt a chill run down his spine: "Shinji, do you really think it's appropriate for you to ask an outsider like me about your family matters? Even so, I can't do anything about it... Why don't you ask your mother?"

Shinji shrank back, glancing fearfully at Yui Ikari: "I feel like it's going to explode."

Leng Mo nodded: "I think so too."

Shinji: "Let's keep it a secret."

Leng Mo: "I'll listen to you."

Just then, Xiao Yuan, who happened to be passing by, saw the table and immediately looked surprised. "Oh, isn't this the Commander's wife and his mistress? Why are they sitting at the same table?"

"..."

"..."

For a moment, Leng Mo and Shinji turned around and looked at Madoka with despair, only to see Madoka smiling like a sunny boy. They jumped up happily, slapped their feet in the air, and then quickly skipped away.

Running away after causing trouble is so damn exciting.

No need to thank me!

Shinji: A gatekeeper!

Leng Mo: Holy crap! You actually stole my power!

The two screamed inwardly in despair, then looked at Yui Ikari and Ritsuko Akagi simultaneously, their hearts pounding in their chests.

However, Misato Katsuragi, Asuka, and Ryosuke Kaji were unaware of the seriousness of the matter.

Ikari had a friendly smile on his face, a charming smile that exuded kindness and gentleness.

Finally, Ritsuko Akagi's face stiffened, and she even seemed to be sweating profusely.

Seeing this, Leng Mo and Shinji nodded silently, picked up their teacups, and quietly retreated.

"Huh? Where are you going?" Asuka asked, puzzled by their retreating posture, "What was that pink-clad guy saying about a mistress? Whose?"

"..."

Goodness, I never expected Asuka to be like this.

Which pot should not be opened and lifted?

Misato Katsuragi finally realized what was happening, staring wide-eyed at Ritsuko Akagi with disbelief and a pain of betrayal.

We said we'd be single together, but not only did you find someone, you also became someone's mistress?!

Finally, Kaji Ryosuke stared at Akagi Ritsuko and Ikari with a gossipy look on his face, finding it quite amusing.

This is quite a spectacle for that commander; it's a rare sight and not to be missed.

Yui Ikari looked at Ritsuko Akagi with a smile and asked kindly, "Could you explain to me what's going on here?"

Ritsuko Akagi looked at her awkwardly, "It's a bit... hard to explain..."

"Then you should get to the point. It would be best to explain all the details clearly and completely!"

"..."

In an instant, Ritsuko Akagi realized that she couldn't escape.

All I could do was silently mourn, oh dear, it's all over.

Chapter 656 Sometimes going all in is a kind of wisdom.

Shinji's residence.

dinner time.

Leng Mo and Xiao Yuan sat side by side at the dining table, their faces beaming with smiles. Holding bowls and chopsticks, they looked affectionately at Akagi Ritsuko sitting next to Ikari Yui. They were especially pleased to see Akagi Ritsuko's obedient and silent demeanor.

Yui, on the other hand, was very calm, with a friendly smile on her face, like the calm before the storm.

No one knows what happened between Yui Ikari and Ritsuko Akagi at that time. Everyone turned and ran as soon as they saw that things were not going well, leaving them alone. Although Ritsuko Akagi's eyes were full of pleading, supplication, and even entreaty, it was all in vain.

Even her best friend, Misato Katsuragi, didn't come to her rescue.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie..."

"Hey hey hey hey..."

As Leng Mo and Senior Xiao Yuan ate their rice, they couldn't help but laugh, filled with a kind of schadenfreude that seemed to bring up the most sensitive topics, constantly reminding those around them of what had just happened.

Hearing the noise, Homura Akemi's face darkened. Speechless, she even stopped eating. "Your laughter is disturbing other people's meals."
