As he said this, the rabbit-man picked up a few small-denomination chips and said, "When we exchange chips, we deliberately leave a few small-denomination chips for the other party, just to show they're 'interested'..."

 Yes, it's that simple to "rekindle the other party's interest" or "make those who see the chips interested in this place."

 In short, prostitution, gambling, and drugs are all harmful things, and I would never recommend that others get involved with them.

 "Huh? Is it okay to speak so loudly?"

 Munemasa Yoshimi asked, puzzled, in a low voice.

 She wanted to avoid her words being overheard by the gamblers... she worried that they would stop playing once they sobered up.

 Unfortunately, that's impossible.

 "Everyone knows that there are only a few winners... but as long as you become a winner, that's all that matters, that's what everyone thinks."

 As Cong Yu spoke, she picked up a half-empty, orange-red bottle of beverage from the rabbit man's table and gulped down two mouthfuls.

 The conclusion was then drawn that fruit and vegetable juices are hard to drink.

 Then, under the rabbit-man's shy gaze, Cong Yu put down her drink and said, "But all of this is none of your business. You just need to exchange the chips. If any customers cause trouble, just call security to drag them out... It's that simple, right?"

 "..."

 "that……"

 Munemasa Yoshimi looked somewhat uneasy, and she nervously swallowed, saying, "I might... not be able to handle this job."

 Why would someone gamble away money meant for their loved one's medical treatment?

 She couldn't stand it, and she couldn't bear to see what had just happened, which was happening in front of her every day... Judging from the expressions of the rabbit man and the others, that kind of thing happened frequently.

 Otherwise, she might get so angry that she'd kill someone.

 "..."

 "Huh? In that case... I can understand it."

 As the rabbit-man spoke, he affirmed that the other party, as a female high school student, possessed the innocence that was expected: "Then, Lady Murasame?"

 "..."

 "It's okay, there are many positions in the group... I'll take you to another place, and we can complete your onboarding procedures there."

 Cong Yu seemed completely unconcerned, walking towards the door while gesturing for Zongzheng Ximei to follow: "Don't feel bad about bothering me."

 "In everyone's eyes, I am a very kind-hearted weirdo."

 Cong Yu said this.

 ……

 Because they realized that Cong Yu, who had no compassion, had all died.

 Chapter 230 Like a God

 "jingle--"

 Accompanied by the crisp sound of bells, what came into Munemasa Yoshimi's eyes was a brightly colored bar... with background music playing.

 The people inside... many of them are obviously weirdos at first glance.

 "Welcome... Ah, Lord Murasame."

 The strange female greeter noticed Congyu and then looked at Munemasa Kimi, who was following behind Congyu, wondering who she was.

 Many guests turned to look at Cong Yu upon her arrival.

 This also includes Xiaoying.

 Sitting behind the bar counter, Xiaoying casually teased, "Cong Yu, what a rare guest... I bet you're not here for a drink."

 As Xiaoying said this, she looked at Zongzheng Ximei behind Congyu, her voice tinged with amusement: "Bringing a newly awakened weirdo you picked up on the road to join the company?"

 Cong Yu couldn't help but laugh at Xiao Ying's words, and casually sat down at the bar next to a minotaur: "You guessed so accurately?"

 Xiaoying: "..."

 It's not that I guessed it accurately... The key point is that Cong Yu rarely comes to bars, so her coming here specifically with someone makes her purpose all too easy to guess.

 "That woman who ran the coffee shop before, you recommended her too. It was all women, right? Not a single man?"

 Amid Xiaoying's cryptic remarks, Cong Yu shook her head: "Actually, there were some, but they felt too stupid and impolite... Plus, they conflicted with my character, so I just crunched them up."

 After Cong Yu spoke, the minotaur looked very excited: "Lord Cong Yu! You saved me too! Back in Central City... it was you who recommended me to come to Fengdu and let me join the 22nd Group."

 Is that so?

 To be honest, I don't remember Cong Yu very well.

 However, he still patted the minotaur on the shoulder and struck up a conversation with him: "Wind City is indeed a good place, isn't it?"

 As the minotaur nodded earnestly, Cong Yu spread his hands towards Xiao Ying: "Look, there are still men among them."

 As she said this, Cong Yu gestured for Zongzheng Ximei, who looked completely shocked, to sit next to her: "This is Xiaoying... a senior executive of the group."

 At this moment, Munemasa Yoshimi was still immersed in the "crunch crunch" sound that Congyu had mentioned while eating it, and she couldn't say anything.

 After all, Cong Yu just meant "cannibalism," right?

 Seeing Zongzheng Ximei's shock, Xiaoying immediately knew what she was thinking: "Don't worry, it's not the kind of crunchy sound you actually bite into."

 As she said this, the tiny figure, which looked like a silhouette, raised a finger and said, "And, have you really never been 'eaten'?"

 As Xiaoying spoke, she mixed drinks, the clinking of the cocktail glass in her hand echoing incessantly.

 At the same time, she was also conveying the wrong values ​​to the innocent high school girl: "People always want to eat something of others to survive in this world..."

 "Have your parents or anyone else 'eaten up' something from you? Freedom? Education? Money? Dreams? Future...?"

 As Xiaoying spoke, she looked at Zongzheng Ximei's drooping eyes when she mentioned "dreams": "So, your family has pinned their dreams on you."

 Upon hearing this, Zongzheng Ximei was somewhat shocked. She looked at Xiaoying in disbelief: "Eh? Um... Miss Xiaoying? How did you know?"

 "..." The innocent girl didn't realize...

 …Among the ten oddballs present, at least seven were men with unhappy families.

 If that weren't the case, then Munemasa Yoshimi wouldn't have ended up being "picked up" by Murasame and brought here.

 "Because everyone is pretty much the same as you...you're not special here."

 As the minotaur spoke, he stared at the beautiful wine that Lady Xiaoying had poured out, watching the crisp sound of the ice cubes she threw in.

 I feel like I'm really looking forward to the next drink.

 Upon hearing this strange man's words, Munemasa Yoshimi was immediately stunned: "I... um."

 Not special...

 That's such a wonderful thing to say.

 While children of Munemasa Yoshimi's age often want to stand out, she is somewhat different.

 Because she wanted to be like everyone else.

 Just like classmates... just like friends.

 Just like my peers.

 As Munemasa Yoshimi was thinking this, the minotaur scratched the horn on its head and laughed loudly: "Were you also saved by Lord Murasame?"

 As he spoke, the strange man beside him also came over: "I was also saved by Lord Congyu."

 "me too."

 "..." It seems that Munemasa Yoshimi is fitting in very well... Unlike the casino before, she seems to have integrated into this place very quickly.

 Cong Yu made this judgment, while Xiao Ying scoffed, "Cong Yu... you savior maniac, you succubus social butterfly!"

 "..." What succubus...

 That's really awful.

 "Everyone has a fruit tree in their heart, and I'm just good at advising that person to pick the good fruit and eat it... That's what a snake should do."

 Cong Yu said this, taking the triangular cup from Xiao Ying's hand: "But if it's an ugly, rotten fruit, then I can't be bothered with it."

 As he said this, Cong Yu downed his drink in one gulp: "Fruit can be sour, spicy, or bitter... but it cannot rot."

 "There's no need to save someone like that..."

 It sounds incredibly impressive and sophisticated, but Xiaoying isn't buying it...

 "To put it bluntly, isn't it just that they take home any pitiful kittens or puppies they see? They're supported by the corporation, and they only owe you favors... That's too much."

 While complaining like this, Xiaoying poured herself another glass of wine and then pushed it in front of Zongzheng Ximei: "Here, this is on you."

 Munemasa Yoshimi paused for a moment, thinking that she wasn't old enough to drink yet, but... it was time to let go of some of those constraints.

 "Thank you!"

 As she said this, Munemasa Yoshimi first took a small sip of the drink and found it to be sweet... then she gulped down the small cocktail.

 Then, she quickly felt her eyelids become heavy, the world began to spin, and her sense of direction started to get confused.

 Unable to sit up straight, she fell asleep almost instantly in front of the bar counter.

 "..." A gaze was directed at the spot that looked like an empty seat, but was actually occupied by a strange man called "Piano Soul".

 Piano Soul realized why the eccentric guy in the group admired Cong Yu so much.

 It has even gone beyond the scope of "advocating".

 It seems that Lord Congyu has a unique standard in his heart... measuring others like a balance scale or a ruler.

 It is not judged by value, but by good and evil...

 A judgment that aligns with Lord Congyu's own "view of the opposition between good and evil," in other words, a "dualistic" theory.

 A rising tone brings life... a falling tone brings death.

 Well deserved...

 Like a god (神っぽいな)

 Chapter 231 Mom is Sick

 "..."

 "Brother Cong Yu, welcome back."

 "..." Although it was strange, it was because Cong Yu never had the habit of saying "I'm back"... whether in the current world or the previous world.

 He was mostly alone.

 Needless to say, the world in the past didn't have the concept of "relatives" at all. The only connection was the concept of "being from the same batch".

 One thousand people born in the same batch have the same initials in their personal identification numbers, but the numbers at the end vary from 000 to 999.

 As for this world...

 In medieval families, it was already a miracle that Cong Yu wasn't considered a demon and was strangled... Sending Cong Yu to the church was already the most benevolent thing to do.

 Cong Yu wouldn't hate them for anything.

 "Well, I'm back."

 As she said this, Cong Yu sat down on the sofa and looked at Xiao Cui, who was all alone: ​​"Where are Yao Chuan Guang and Lan Tian Zhu?"

 In response to Cong Yu's question, Xiao Cui ate chocolate and replied, "Sister Yao Chuan and Sister Lan Tian went to work."

 The so-called job is to fight monsters.

 It's quiet at home now, and the weirdo broadcast has stopped... so it's probably been dealt with by the two of them, and they'll be home soon.

 Cong Yu, chin in hand, opened his laptop, set up his graphics tablet, and began his work with a sullen expression.

 Then, very quickly, the doorbell rang.

 "We're back."

 Lantian Zhu's voice came from the doorway...

 To be honest, this is a bit strange, because usually it should be Yaochuan Guang who shouts first, "I'm back!!!"

 Then, under the watchful eyes of Cong Yu and Xiao Cui,

 As the door opened and slowly entered the foyer, Nagisa Azuma, holding Hikaru Yokawa, came into view.
