She is so pretty! Kiana thought to herself, not knowing why Mei Raiden looked so shy.
"Yes, that's right."
Because she had not become completely familiar with Mei Raiden, and had not yet fed her entire brain to a certain blue dog next door who only knew how to be in heat, the silver-haired girl had not been completely blinded by her beauty in the true sense.
She shook her head vigorously, trying to shake off the beautiful filters surrounding her beloved, and the smile on her face finally became a little more normal: "What's your name? I don't even know your name yet."
"..." Raiden Mei hesitated for a moment, somewhat struggling over whether to reveal her name to this evildoer who had ill intentions towards her. However, after recalling the girl's selfless appearance when she first met her, her heart softened in the end:
"Thunder and Lightning Meiyi."
"Then I'll call you Mei from now on!" Kiana said with a sunny face.
"..." That familiar attitude made Mei Raiden, who had lived in the Far East since she was a child, a little bit difficult to adapt to.
At this time, shouldn't you call me by my last name first? At the very least, you should add "Miss" after my name.
However, when she saw the other person's face with very Western characteristics, Mei Raiden felt relieved and sighed.
"Forget it, do as you like."
You can't force a Westerner to adapt to the etiquette of the Far East.
Kiana's straightforward thinking was not able to isolate the twists and turns in Raiden Mei's mind. She chuckled, looked around, and asked another question that concerned her the most: "Mei, you just said that the person in charge here said that I am her niece?"
"Ah."
"What does she look like?" Kiana raised her hand and gently played with the two wavy silver hair hanging in front of her shoulders. "Does she have silver hair and blue eyes like me?"
"Yes." Raiden Mei nodded, then turned her body sideways, "If you are able to do so, you can come over and check for yourself. She is right down here now."
"Ah?" Kiana was stunned, then quickly ran to the porthole and pressed her face against the glass, "Let me see... Wow! It's so high--!!"
"Are we actually on a plane now?"
"Your aunt said that this is an airship." Raiden Mei added. Seeing that Kiana focused all her attention on the scene outside the porthole, she temporarily put aside her vigilance towards her and put her head next to her. "Can you see it? It's the little girl standing in the middle of the road."
"That little dwarf?" Kiana was stunned. "It is indeed a characteristic of the Kaslana family...but she doesn't look older than me! She said she is my aunt?"
"I don't know what's going on here." Raiden Mei paused, "By the way, I have something to ask you. Do you still remember what happened before you lost consciousness?"
"What?" Kiana was a little unresponsive for a moment.
Mei Raiden was speechless for a while, then sighed helplessly: "Aren't you surprised that you suddenly woke up in a strange place?"
"Now that Mei mentions it... that's right..."
Kiana frowned deeply, her azure eyes filled with clear stupidity: "Why did I wake up here..."
The moment I realized this problem, the burning pain that had been covered up by the excitement of love at first sight resurfaced.
"Hiss... It hurts so much..." She half squatted down, gasping for air and holding her hand between her eyebrows in pain.
Mei Raiden turned her head away with a somewhat unnatural expression, and her palm unconsciously covered her forehead, which was obviously red and even had a clear bump on it.
"Hiss... why does it hurt so much!" Kiana let go of her hand with tears in her eyes, and then tentatively touched the skin that was emitting bursts of dull pain with her fingertips. "It can't be that I accidentally bumped into the electric pole while walking. I wouldn't do such a stupid thing after I turned ten!"
"..."
It seems like I heard something extraordinary.
Mei Raiden coughed and snorted while pretending to be calm: "You don't seem to have answered my question yet. Do you remember why you lost consciousness?"
"Hmm... let me think..." Kiana rubbed her head, her eyes wandering, as if she was in a trance, "I remember... I seemed to have just arrived in Changkong City and was looking for a place to live, and then I heard a cry for help, and I wanted to save that person, and then... then..."
As she was talking, Kiana was stunned: "Hey, why don't you remember what happened later?"
Hmm, Kiana frowned, trying to search her mind further for memories.
Although she likes to be lazy and doesn't like to think much, she is very confident in her memory.
As long as it wasn't boring memories like classes, she could remember it clearly even if it happened a long time ago.
However, the memory of hearing the cry for help was still extremely clear, but in the next second, her memory seemed to be suddenly cut off, and no matter how hard she tried to recall, she could not remember what happened after that.
A huge emptiness and confusion suddenly engulfed her. The strange feeling of loss even made Kiana instinctively feel a fear that she herself could not figure out the reason for.
Looking at Kiana's dull eyes, a hint of disappointment flashed across Raiden Mei's eyes, but soon, greater relief and excitement surged up.
As expected, there was something strange that was trying to forcibly modify my memory and make me forget about the store manager and the cafe. Mei Raiden quietly confirmed this fact to herself deep in her heart.
Judging from Kiana's performance, she had completely forgotten everything about the store manager. In fact, the next moment when the store manager's figure suddenly disappeared, even she herself could clearly feel something like an electric current suddenly invading her brain.
Fortunately, when her memory was almost successfully modified by the electric current, Theresa suddenly appeared in front of her.
Theresa's face was exactly the same as the face of "Stargazing" in those gradually blurred memories, so the moment she saw that face, the originally blurred memories became clear again.
Moreover, there are more reasons why I can leave my memories behind.
"Are you helping me..."
She gently touched her chest and whispered to a certain consciousness within her body.
"..."
That consciousness did not give an answer to this question, but the numb feeling vaguely coming from her chest made Raiden Mei understand that the other party had heard the question and gave an answer.
Mei Raiden still didn't know what motives this consciousness called "Herrser" had for resisting the power that was trying to repair her memory, but after getting the answer, she still whispered those two words:
"Thank you."
She is not a person who is ungrateful.
When she was in deep despair and even wanted to commit suicide, it was the young store manager who broke into her life and her world with an extremely strong attitude.
He saved his life from Cocolia, told her the truth about his father's imprisonment, and with an extremely tough, even somewhat unromantic attitude, he unreasonably and brutally forced the "hope of survival" into her cognition.
Because of the store manager, she had hope of survival.
But now, something wanted to forcibly expel the store manager who had intruded into her life.
——Unforgivable.
Mei Raiden would never allow this to happen.
To intrude into someone else's life without permission, and then disappear from that person's world on your own... there is no such thing in this world.
If there is something that wants to drive you out of my world.
——Then, I will snatch you back from that thing by force!
Her eyes were sharp, her expression was stern, and her whole body was filled with powerful determination.
Kiana looked at Raiden Mei's fierce posture and swallowed her saliva with some excitement, but at the same time, she felt inexplicably heavy on her head.
Chapter 4 Our crystal is under attack (k)
"Ah!"
Late at night, on the second floor of the Hyperion Cafe, in a cyberpunk-style bedroom, Yufan was sitting cross-legged on a bed printed with a rabbit pattern, when he suddenly sneezed uncontrollably.
"Did you catch a cold?" Brownie, wearing a loose T-shirt and shorts, knelt beside him in a duck sitting position.
Both of them held a game controller in their hands. The ceiling light in the bedroom was not turned on, and the more than 60-inch gaming monitor was flashing the dynamic game screen unscrupulously.
The high-frequency flickering light illuminated the faces of the man and the woman with a variety of colors.
"No, there's no way I could catch a cold. Someone must have been targeting me."
Hearing Brownie's casual question, the store manager rubbed his nose and snorted unhappily: "It's nothing more than the few customers I met during the day who were talking about me behind my back. The most likely person is probably the guardian lady who I messed with so badly."
"Is she the one named Bronya like me when I was a child?" Brownie said casually at first, and then burst out laughing, his laughter full of gloating.
"What's so funny?" Yufan raised his eyebrows. "I made an enemy outside who wanted to cut me into pieces, and you're so happy?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood." Brownie shook his head, lowered his eyes to look at his chest that could be used to sharpen a knife, and suddenly sighed, "I just hate every woman with big breasts equally, but I'm not targeting her in particular."
The store manager glanced at Brownie's chest and thought for a moment: "Have you never thought about the possibility that you still have great potential?"
"If it doesn't happen to me, it's fake." Brownie shrugged. "If that day really comes, I will change my opinion~"
"You really do whatever you want..."
"How can I meet you if I don't follow my heart?" Brownie smiled, "Besides, you are about to lose again."
"Damn it! You did it on purpose!"
The shocked store manager immediately regrouped and focused his attention on the game screen, but he was a step too late.
Brownie didn't give her any chance to fight back.
With a cry of "氣あり——" full of contempt and the confidence of winning, thousands of glowing thorns surrounded an old man holding a cigarette in 360 degrees. The old man looked like he didn't understand the current situation yet. He just said in a calm tone, "It doesn't seem very optimistic", and then every inch of his skin was pierced by the thousands of thorns without any resistance.
Kill with one strike - Punishment of the Iron Maiden.
Looking at the old man being pierced all over, the young store manager suddenly felt a chill down his spine and couldn't help but shiver, as if the one who was suffering such punishment was not the game character, but him, the game player.
As "Destroy" was announced, the big word "annihilation" was reflected in the pupils of the two people.
"...Tsk." The store manager held his brows and put on a look of deep sorrow. His tone of voice sounded a little aggrieved: "Brownie, you've become a bad boy. You weren't the kind of bad boy who would cheat outside the court before."
"It's enough to win, why bother about so many things." Brownie lowered his right hand that was holding the handle, turned his head, and looked at the store manager's face with interest. "Besides, this is not cheating. It's the store manager's own problem that he can't concentrate. I won't take the blame for this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Brownie, who was in a playful mood, moved his thighs, and moved to a position slightly in front of the manager with his knees touching the bed.
Then, she raised her calf and gently fiddled with the store manager's belt with her crystal-clear big toe. Her eyes narrowed slightly, showing both the pride of victory and a hint of provocation like a female devil: "Then, I admit defeat. Your last pair of pants will belong to Brownie."
"..." The young store manager remained calm. He had originally crossed his legs, but after feeling the commotion coming from his lower back, he couldn't help but close them like a shy girl, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He lowered his gaze slightly from the giant screen in front of him and glanced at the various clothes scattered on the ground, from outerwear to inner linings to socks and even shoes, there were clothes for all parts of the body, but there was not a single piece of women's clothing.
Yes, based on playing video games, another game played between the store manager and Brownie is "that type" of game.
Two hours, a total of eight games of various types, so far, the store manager's record is zero wins and eight losses.
Just super ghost, not more, not less.
To be fair, his gaming skills are actually not weak. Even if he admits that he is indeed weaker than Bronny, the gap in strength between them should not be to the point where he is beaten zero and has no chance of fighting back.
What determines the outcome of the game is not strength itself, but the desire to win of both sides, a gap as huge as a chasm.
In the first few failures, the store manager failed to be alert to this gap and did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
By the time they realized that Bronny was firing on all cylinders from the beginning, it was too late to reverse the outcome of the game.
Feeling the devil-like gaze of the hacker girl, the store manager swallowed hard and couldn't help scratching his red hair. He felt complicated and a little scared for the first time in a long time.
After struggling for a long time, the store manager decided to beg for mercy: "Can you give me some face?"
"At this point, does the store manager still think he has any dignity left?"
The delicate and translucent big toe gently fiddled with the edge of the belt.
The cunning Miss Hare Rabbit smiled, leaving no room for the store manager.
"If the store manager is still a man, he should keep his promise."
Just when the store manager was forced into a corner by Miss Rabbit's attack.
Sudden.
Da da da--
There was a crisp knock on the bedroom door.
Brownie instantly put away his smile.
The store manager breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously asked, "Who?"
There was silence outside the door for a moment, and then a somewhat restrained voice sounded: "It's me, the store manager. I'm the one who broke in without permission because of a misunderstanding. Is it convenient for you to talk now?"
Before the store manager could respond, Brownie spoke first, his voice filled with extreme impatience and resentment: "It's inconvenient. It's so late. Why don't you rest yet? Don't you still have to work for our cafe during the day tomorrow? You can just not sleep well at night, why do you come to disturb our rest?"
"From the sound of it, you guys aren't ready to rest yet." The person outside the door said calmly, "I'm sorry to bother you, but I can finish what I want to say in just a minute or two."
"Tsk." Brownie smacked his lips, "Come in."
Click, the door opened, and Raiden Mei walked in wearing a nightgown. She had a light makeup on her face and the belt around her waist was deliberately not tied tightly.
The waist-high slit exposes the breathtaking whiteness to the air unscrupulously.
When Brownie saw Raiden Mei's outfit, his face suddenly turned dark.
I have to say that even compared with several other shop assistants who have both good looks and figure, Raiden Mei's figure is definitely one of the most eye-catching.
Even without high heels, she still had a tall figure, slender and well-proportioned legs, and a pair of breasts that could even rival Yuexia's.
