Ding-dong!
Just then, the ethereal sound of the doorbell rang out again.
And as soon as they heard the sound, both of them stopped what they were doing.
The wooden door of Antique was pushed open, and a pair of long, fair, and beautiful legs stepped onto the ground.
Hearing that crisp sound, Lin Ze couldn't help but swallow, a very ominous premonition filling him.
Sure enough, a moment later, Kamishiro Rize's figure emerged from behind the door.
The instant she entered, everyone in the entire coffee shop turned their attention to her.
Most of the Ghouls held their breath and heightened their vigilance, with some even tensing their bodies, ready to fight at any moment.
Although this was Antique, Anteiku, the safest place in the entire 20th Ward.
Fighting was not allowed here, nor were conflicts and disputes between Ghouls.
However, Rize, standing before them, was undoubtedly the biggest troublemaker.
Because she ate too much, she was simply too gluttonous.
One must know that ordinary Ghouls generally only needed to hunt once a month, or at most two to three times.
But Rize had to hunt three or four times a week; such a large appetite naturally attracted the attention of the Investigators.
So, wherever she was, nothing good usually happened.
Rize had lived in the 11th Ward for a while, but she quickly messed that place up.
Now she had come to the 20th Ward, and it was possible she would mess this place up too.
Therefore, most Ghouls did not welcome Rize, but they couldn't defeat her either.
So, out of helplessness, they could only avoid her like a plague, keeping as far away from her as possible.
Thus, after Rize entered, most of the Ghouls subconsciously leaned back.
"She's here again?"
Kirishima Touka muttered inwardly, sweeping a cold glance at her.
She thought the same as most Ghouls, believing Rize's arrival in the 20th Ward was probably not a good thing.
She just hoped she wouldn't cause any trouble and attract the Investigators.
However, Touka didn't know that there were already two Investigator sitting in her shop.
Perhaps it was because the behavior of the two, like children, simply couldn't be associated with Investigator.
So much so that even now, Kirishima Touka had not the slightest suspicion.
"Oh no, I knew it was her!"
Seeing the pretty lady at the door, Lin Ze immediately felt a sense of dread.
After all, in the anime, before Rize was crushed by a steel beam, her favorite place to come was Antique.
It wasn't to drink coffee or read books, nor was it to enjoy the quiet and wonderful atmosphere.
Rize came here purely for hunting, to attract some unsuspecting prey to eat as snacks.
After all, for someone like him with zero dating experience, who would blush even when talking to girls on a normal day.
When facing an intelligent, gentle, and beautiful older sister like Rize, it was hard not to be completely captivated.
For example, a certain black-haired young man was so enchanted by her that he almost became her late-night snack.
Thinking of this, Lin Ze silently sank deeper into the sofa, hoping that Rize wouldn't notice him.
After all, he still remembered last night's experience clearly.
Rize, with her utterly infatuated appearance last night, looked as if she couldn't wait to devour him on the spot.
And this wasn't an exaggeration or a metaphor, but a fact.
Thinking of that shy, flushed, exquisite face, and those seductive, silken eyes.
Lin Ze found it hard to imagine she wouldn't do something inappropriate in public.
If she were to do something suggestive in public...
It would probably feel great, really comfortable, right?
No, no, it should be explosive.
Lin Ze shook his head, shaking off the strange thoughts.
And all he could do now was pray that there were many people here and that Rize hadn't noticed him.
"Eh~"
Suzuya Juuzou glanced at Kamishiro Rize at the door, then turned back to look at Lin Ze's unusual expression.
After a moment of thought, a hint of interest flashed in his reddish-brown eyes.
It seemed... he had discovered something incredible?
Just as they were thinking, Kamishiro Rize walked into the coffee shop.
Normally, she would go directly to her usual seat.
But this time, Kamishiro Rize was not in a hurry to walk over and sit down; her delicate nose twitched.
Breathing in the air, she quickly detected a special scent that didn't belong here.
And it was the kind of scent that made one unable to resist, completely irresistible.
"I didn't expect us to meet again on the second day?"
Kamishiro Rize murmured softly, a slight smile curving her lips.
Perhaps... this was what they called fate?
Immediately after, she turned and walked towards the most secluded corner of the coffee shop.
"Eh~"
"Senior, Senior, that intelligent beauty seems to be walking towards us~"
Suzuya Juuzou pointed at Kamishiro Rize, who was steadily approaching, looking very curious.
Feeling the alluring aura, like that of a succubus, drawing closer and closer.
Lin Ze casually took out a book from his pocket and started flipping through it, looking very natural.
"We meet again, Lin Ze~"
Soon, Kamishiro Rize walked up to him, staring at him with interest.
"Yes, we meet again."
Seeing that there was no way out, Lin Ze could only put down the book and then raise his head: "I really didn't expect to run into you here."
"I also didn't expect you to have time to come to a coffee shop; it's quite a surprise to me~"
Hearing this, Kamishiro Rize slightly narrowed her beautiful eyes, a smile curving her lips.
Her charm attribute was fully maxed out, like a vixen.
What a hateful woman!
Listening to that teasing yet gentle tone, as if she were flirting with him.
While his body felt hot, Lin Ze also felt inexplicably annoyed.
"May I sit in this seat?"
Kamishiro Rize asked softly, looking dignified and gentle.
There was a feeling of delicate charm mixed with a hint of grievance.
"It's empty anyway, go ahead and sit."
Looking at the gentle and intelligent older sister in front of him, Lin Ze only felt a headache.
Perhaps only he knew what kind of succubus image Rize truly was behind the scenes.
Hearing this, Kamishiro Rize smiled sweetly, like a blooming lotus.
She naturally sat down on the sofa, her movements without any hesitation.
From the moment she entered, everyone in the coffee shop had their attention on the three of them.
When they heard Rize ask if she could sit with them, they were all stunned.
One must know that Rize had always basically only sat in one spot, and she had never actively approached a male.
What was the background of this young man, to make Rize treat him like this?
As they thought of this, a hint of curiosity grew in the hearts of most Ghouls.
"Do you remember what I told you before I left yesterday?"
Kamishiro Rize asked softly, a hint of teasing flashing in her beautiful eyes.
After speaking, she shifted slightly closer, reducing the distance between them.
"What I said yesterday?"
Thinking to himself, Lin Ze fell into thought.
"I told you that next time we meet, I'll have a good chat with you~"
At some point, Kamishiro Rize leaned close to his ear, exhaling a warm breath.
Feeling a ticklish sensation mixed with a bit of warmth, Lin Ze couldn't help but shiver.
"If we're going to have a good chat, shouldn't we start by getting to know some basics?"
Kamishiro Rize smiled slightly, gently pushed her glasses, and licked her full red lips.
"Mr. Lin Ze, do you have a girlfriend?"
