Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

That seems outrageous.

"is that so……"

Eden sighed, unsure whether he was moved by Sakura's naivety or astonished by Shihen's shamelessness.

“Of course, I never lie, just like Alicia.” Shihen pressed Alicia’s credibility without changing his expression, and at the same time took out the girl’s crystal flower again. “Look, this is Alicia’s recognition of me.”

Shihen believed that Alicia would never reveal that he had taken the crystal flower by force.

As the second-ranked hero of the Fire Chaser faction and the deputy leader of the fusion warriors, would she have no pride?

"Well, I believe you."

Eden nodded.

She trusted Alicia's judgment.

“Oh right, we’ve been chatting for so long, but I haven’t given a proper self-introduction yet.” As if suddenly remembering, Eden said with a smile, “My name is Eden, the fourth among the Fire Chasers, and I’d say I’m a singer who bears the [Golden] Inscription.”

She prefers to call herself a singer rather than a warrior, especially in front of her friends.

“My name is Hen. Although I am not ranked among the world’s snake executives, I am still known as the ‘White Dove’,” Shi Hen explained. “In our time, the white dove symbolizes peace.”

Shihen was confident that he would be able to bring nuclear peace to the world.

"White Dove, what a nice name."

Eden nodded.

"Gold is beautiful, just like you, Eden."

Time and Trace are just mutual flattery... No, realistically speaking, Eden does indeed have a more brilliant and dazzling light than gold.

Gold was merely an accessory to Eden.

"Thank you. This is the name Ellie gave me."

Eden smiled subtly.

She also highly approves of Alicia's naming skills.

"The names of the heroes are perhaps the most honest thing Alicia knows."

Shihen sighed.

In this land of riddle enthusiasts, the code name "Hero" is one of the few things that truly lives up to its name.

Even an honest person like Sakura speaks in a way that makes people guess what she's talking about.

"Ok?"

Eden frowned in confusion.

In her view, Alicia had always been honest, just like a girl's unwavering love for the world.

"It's nothing, nothing important." Shihen waved his hand, then changed the subject, "Eden, would you like to try afternoon tea from our time?"

He wasn't used to associating chatting with tea and snacks.

“Of course.” Eden nodded, then a hint of hesitation appeared on his face. “But you have to…”

But before she could voice her doubts, she saw the boy tap the stone table with his fingertip, and the red tea and pastries instantly turned into beer and barbecue.

Is this really her memory space?

Eden couldn't help but fall into deep doubt.

Only Alicia could do something like this in someone else's space; even Kevin couldn't.

This has nothing to do with strength or weakness, but depends on something else, something that even she can't quite explain.

At that moment, Eden vaguely understood why Alicia cared so much about the boy.

“In our time, people enjoy eating these things while chatting.”

Timeless traces smeared the concept of afternoon tea without batting an eye.

"Yes...really?"

Looking at the visibly oily and greasy barbecue, Eden seemed a little hesitant.

She doesn't like things that are too greasy.

“Eden, you can try it first.”

Shihen extended his hand in an invitation.

Looking at the smiling boy in front of him, Eden couldn't help but think of Alicia.

The girl also liked to let her try new and interesting things.

Thinking of this, Eden picked up a lamb skewer and gently bit off the very last piece.

In an instant, the aroma of meat mixed with strong spices exploded in my mouth.

Well, it wasn't particularly delicious, but it wasn't bad either.

This should be more suitable for the evening after work.

Eden thought to himself, and then realized that the weather had changed from a warm, sunny afternoon to a starry night.

Is this really not the memory space of the boy in front of us?

"how?"

Shihen asked with a smile.

"very nice."

Eden told a little lie.

For her, it was at most a bit novel, but far from being excellent.

"Your time must have had something similar, right?"

As he picked up a skewer and started eating, Shihen asked a question.

Although Eden was a young lady, he didn't think she would be so refined as to have never even seen barbecue.

“I rarely try these.”

Eden confessed.

As a singer, she is very disciplined with her diet, after all, she needs to protect her voice.

“In our time, everyone liked to meet up with a few friends after work to eat these things,” Shihen said with a touch of nostalgia. “We’d drink beer, eat some barbecue, complain about our bosses, and brag about how awesome we were. That way, all the fatigue of the day would just disappear.”

Then, I went to work the next day.

"Sounds interesting."

Eden said with a smile.

"It's all just life."

Shihen shook his head.

"But in our time, this kind of life is already considered a luxury."

Eden's tone was tinged with envy.

When Honkai invaded people's world with a brutal force, such ordinary and mundane daily life was gone forever.

"So, Miss Eden, would you like to try this kind of life?"

Shihen smiled and raised his barrel-shaped wine glass to the singer in front of him.

"my pleasure."

Raising his glass as well, Eden said with a smile, just like he used to clink glasses with someone at a banquet.

boom!

With a soft sound, the clear yellow beer rippled, making one seem to see red within it.

Chapter Fifty-Six: Betting on Yingjie's Name

The third customs clearance certificate has been obtained.

Shihen tossed the sparkling ruby ​​in his hand, a smile unconsciously spreading across his face.

As it turns out, Eden's pass was perhaps the easiest to obtain; all it took was getting the other person drunk, after which they could do whatever they wanted.

For example... take a picture of her eating skewers while drunk, and then have her sign the picture herself.

Of course, Shihen didn't take any photos with him; after all, they were precious memories of Eden.

I imagine that when the other person sobers up and sees that photo, they will surely recall this wonderful night and smile knowingly.

Moreover, Shihen also took the opportunity to hear quite a few stories about Alicia, which he could verify with the girl another day.

At that time, the other person's expression will definitely be very interesting.

Thinking this, Shihen felt his steps become much lighter, and even the fat cat by the roadside seemed more pleasing to the eye.

Wait, where did this fat cat come from in Paradise?

Suddenly realizing something, Shihen hurriedly grabbed the fat brown cat.

"Meow?"

Feeling itself being picked up by a human, Canned Food let out a confused cry.

"Stop meowing. Even if you meow until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you."

Holding the canned food in his arms and stroking the other's furry body, Shihen couldn't help but chuckle mischievously.

Just because he couldn't find Gretchen doesn't mean no one else could.

Now, he has the key to meeting Gretchen.

"Meow~"

Perhaps because it felt good to be touched, the canned food nestled in the boy's arms without struggling at all.

Hmm, what a well-behaved cat.

Um...maybe I'm just too lazy.

Feeling the heavy weight of the can, Shihen couldn't help but think to himself.

Pado is quite thin, so why is Guantou so fat?

"From now on, you'll stay obediently by my side until your master redeems you, understand?"

Shihen threatened viciously.

"Meow……"

Looking up at the human holding him in his arms, the canned food's two eyes blinked like stars.

"Fine, I'll take it as you understood."

Looking at the fat cat in his arms, Shihen didn't bother to care whether the other cat could understand human language.

For cats, this might be a quantum-level issue.

They can always lose this ability when they need it.

"What did Pado send you here for?"

While petting the cat, Shihen asked.

"Meow~"

It nimbly leaped from the boy's arms to the ground, and the can stretched out a paw towards the boy.

Huh? What do you mean? Do you want him to touch you?

A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Shihen subconsciously reached out to touch it.

The canned meat paws were soft... Shihen unconsciously squeezed them.

"Meow!"
