She gave a smirk and nodded to Sister Efa from the neighboring shop, then, with annoyance on her pretty little face, she grabbed Qi Shi's ear and headed home.
"Damn it, go home!"
"And you're not even the same model, okay?!"
Qi Shi swayed slightly and made a disapproving sound.
How are we different? She's a robot, and I'm a robot too. We're a match made in heaven!
Some people put on masks, but they also took them off.
Having already lost all face, Qi Shi completely abandoned all sense of decency after entering Bangbu's bouncy body.
Ling brought Qi Shi home, put her hands on her hips and looked at him, her little face full of annoyance.
"Honestly, you said you were going out to fight for justice, but why did I find you at my own doorstep?"
"Hehe~ Ling, I think Mr. Qi Shi must have his own considerations before deciding what to do," Zhe said with a forced smile, raising his hand.
That's true, but why are you reacting so strongly?
He's not some slow-witted idiot; the seemingly nerdy older brother actually has extremely high emotional intelligence.
Why are you so sensitive about his affairs? Your behavior isn't quite right, sister.
He felt helpless and distressed, sensing that his sister was in grave danger, but he didn't want to bring it up for fear of having the opposite effect.
Ling defended herself somewhat weakly, saying, "I just... I just felt that Qi Shi has been fooling around outside with my bangbu on, what if others criticize our shop?"
Qi Shi said with a calm expression, "Originally, I was indeed planning to travel through the void to do something meaningful, but Efa suddenly told me that the device on her head could play small records and invited me to her house to watch them together."
That's a record player girl!
"You still dare to talk back!" Ling's eyebrows shot up in anger.
"Alright, alright!" Zhe quickly tried to change the subject.
"A major incident has just occurred. A cavity disaster has occurred on 14th Street. It is a cavity that is associated with the Crete cavity. Judging from the news reports that the police have sent additional support, the evacuation does not seem to be going smoothly."
He looked at the other two with pleading eyes and said, "I was just thinking, should we go and help them?"
"Of course I'll help!"
Upon hearing this, Ling immediately spoke up, and Qi Shi nodded in agreement: "My sword has not been any less effective."
Seeing the two suddenly change their demeanor and become incredibly in sync, Zhe's lips twitched.
Weren't you just arguing?
"Let me go this time!" Ling said excitedly, rolling up her sleeves with a confident look on her face.
When she said "let me go," she wasn't referring to guiding or assisting with HDD, but rather actually going into the Void Disaster.
Before this, Ling had also experienced becoming a superhuman from Qi Shi, and had started practicing martial arts a whole version ahead of time. Now she has had the experience of breaking through the void several times.
"Hehe~ Should we reconsider?" Zhe chuckled awkwardly. He was still worried about his sister's safety, so he could only bite the bullet and say it.
Since meeting Qi Shi, Fae Tong's life has gone completely astray.
"Don't worry, brother! Qi Shi said I've made great progress and am much better than before," Ling said immediately, giving no chance to refute.
His face showed an expression that said, "I am now incredibly strong."
"Sparrow food." Qi Shi nodded, not contradicting him.
A jump from 0.2 to 0.3 is indeed a significant improvement; a 150-fold improvement isn't considered high.
"Alright then, but be careful. I'll provide you with information support from here." Seeing that his sister wouldn't listen at all, Zhe could only say helplessly in the end.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen."
Qi Shi's body detached from Ies and entered Ling's body, and his power spread out.
A golden door opened before her, and a purple light shone in Ling's eyes as she spoke with great excitement and confidence.
"Okay, let's go!"
In the main world, inside the dormitory of St. Freya Academy.
Kiana rested her chin on her hand, gazing out the window, letting out a sigh of boredom, for the person who was always by her side was not there.
"Honestly, where has Qi Shi gone to play again?"
Although Qi Shi has become even more powerful recently, he spends less time with her.
Of course, she didn't disappear. She was still pretty much the same as before. Qi Shi would wake her up in the morning, braid her hair, and tutor her. The two of them often trained together, ate together, and were often together. But occasionally, the other would disappear.
She would feel very bored at times like this.
"Sigh, when are you coming back? It's been so long." Kiana muttered to herself, resting her chin on her hand, waiting listlessly. She didn't even feel like playing the game console, which was sitting to the side.
Kiana couldn't help but recall the past, when Qi Shi would possess other people, including Deadpool, who once saved her. But back then, the other person always stayed with her, and the two were never separated.
Now, even though Qi Shi is much stronger than before, she can clearly feel the power that has been transmitted into her body many times stronger, and their lives have become better. They can even appear in the real world to accompany her, but she can't help but feel a little down.
Kiana rested her chin on her hand, her mind filled with images of Qi Shi.
Suddenly, there were a few knocks on the bedroom door, followed by Mei's gentle voice.
"May I come in, Kiana?"
"Ah, Mei!"
"It's alright, it's alright, come in, Mei!"
Upon hearing who it was, Kiana quickly spoke and opened the door for them.
"Kiana, I made you some nourishing soup. Training must have been tough." Upon seeing the two, Raiden Mei spoke with a sweet smile and an incredibly gentle tone, carrying a small pot of stew in her hand.
"Thank you, Ya... uh." Kiana's face lit up with joy at the prospect of delicious food, but she paused for a moment when she saw the soup.
The pork rib soup exuded a rich aroma, but looking into the pot, the eerily swaying pork ribs resembled pieces of corpses floating in the soup.
Kiana fell silent, while Raiden Mei spoke gently.
"Won't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
Looking at Mei's smile, she felt inexplicably uneasy.
It must be my imagination.
Kiana touched her hair, shook off her strange thoughts, and smiled brightly.
"Of course, come in quickly, Mei."
Chapter 60 Raiden Mei finally gets her result
"You're still so careless, it makes me worry."
Entering the house, Raiden Mei carefully placed a mat on the table, set out a pot of ribs, got up, looked at the somewhat messy bedroom, and helplessly helped Kiana tidy up.
"Hehe~ I was in a hurry to do my homework and didn't have time to tidy up. You're the best, Mei." Kiana scratched her head and laughed shyly, making a cute "hehe" sound.
But Mei's gaze was fixed on the edge of the table, where the homework was scattered.
A moment later, the two sat down at the small table and served two bowls of steaming pork rib soup.
"Kiana, is something bothering you lately?" Mei asked gently.
Kiana was looking at the pork rib soup in front of her, struggling with whether or not to drink it, when she suddenly heard what the other person said.
Her mind was already filled with thoughts of Qi Shi, and she was feeling very depressed. When the topic was brought up, she instinctively wanted to talk about it, but she stopped herself at the last minute. She scratched her hair and found an excuse to laugh awkwardly.
"Because I have too much homework lately, I feel so tired every day."
However, Kiana is not good at lying, and all her changes in expression were noticed by Raiden Mei, causing her to narrow her eyes slightly.
But she didn't show anything, she just said gently.
"It must be tough. While it's good to work hard, you must also take care of your health. If you encounter any problems you don't understand, I can help you catch up."
"Oh, no need, no need," Kiana immediately waved her hand to decline, saying that she would just wait for Qi Shi to help her with the lessons.
"Kiana, didn't you used to love it when I tutored you?" Raiden Mei looked a little downcast.
Upon seeing this, Kiana quickly offered an explanation.
"Absolutely not Mei. I just didn't want to trouble Mei. You have to train during the day, and it would be too hard for you to tutor me at night."
As she spoke in a flustered manner, Mei's expression softened somewhat, and she apologized.
"Is that so? I'm sorry, I misunderstood you, Kiana."
"It's my fault for not explaining clearly, Mei, that made you misunderstand."
Kiana spoke shyly, and her expression made Raiden Mei smile gently and say softly.
"Don't worry, I'm not angry. But Kiana has really changed a lot recently. She's become much more reliable, and her grades in class have always been excellent, especially in practical classes. She always performs so well and is frequently praised by the teacher. Kiana has really become different."
"Hehe, no way~"
Hearing the constant praise, Kiana couldn't help but laugh, completely forgetting her earlier embarrassment. Although she spoke modestly, her face was full of pride.
"That's commendable, Kiana has finally figured it out."
"I've always tried my best, okay!"
The two girls then chatted in a harmonious atmosphere, showing concern for each other and talking about everyday things, filled with intimacy and warmth, a pure and beautiful friendship between girls.
Raiden Mei gently helped Kiana serve the soup.
The time passed quickly and pleasantly. Raiden Mei was about to leave, and Kiana reluctantly saw her off. As they reached the bedroom door, she reminded Kiana before leaving, "Kiana, your braids seem to have come undone a bit."
"It's alright, it's alright, I can just have Qi Shi help me weave it again," Kiana said nonchalantly, but she suddenly froze after saying that.
Kiana noticed that Mei's gentle expression had vanished, replaced by a sharp, almost suffocating gaze fixed on her.
"Uh..." Kiana swallowed hard, unable to resist taking two steps back from that overly sharp gaze.
See you in a while.
After completing the task of clearing the Fourteenth Street, Qi Shi said goodbye to the two and left, returning to the original world.
But as soon as he returned, he noticed something was wrong; the place seemed to be shrouded in a strange atmosphere.
Inside the bedroom, Kiana sat upright in one corner of the bed, her hands on her lap, standing perfectly still as if being punished, not daring to breathe.
