"Sister? You can call me that if you like."
Lux smiled and nodded, then said to Tokisaki Kurumi beside her:
"Ms. Tokisaki, can you please open the restraints first?"
"Oh?" Tokisaki Kurumi raised her eyebrows and immediately reminded: "If there is no restraint belt, this child will go berserk and no one can control him."
This is a lie.
Both Tokisaki Kurumi and Luo Shu are confident enough to subdue Hoshimiya Rokuko with one move at the current distance.
But this did not prevent Tokisaki Kurumi from saying this deliberately.
"It'll be fine." Lux patted Hoshimiya Rokuko's hand gently and said gently, "Rokuko doesn't like children who cause trouble to others, right?"
Hoshimiya Rokuko was a little conflicted, but finally nodded.
At this time, Tokisaki Kurumi glanced at Luo Shu, and when she saw the latter nodded, she stepped forward and untied the restraints again.
At this time, Luo Shu took a step back and came to a position parallel to Nangong Nayue, and secretly communicated through the system:
[Is this Lux's ability? ]
[It's about the same, probably a power similar to empathy. ]
Nangong Nayue paused for a moment and explained:
[Lacus once killed a special demon, and because of touching the other's blood, she gained this kind of ability from the other. 】
[The main question is to be able to empathize with others through words, such as your own emotions and harmlessness.]
[So, this woman can be said to be the best lobbyist in the world. ]
"I see." Luo Shu suddenly realized what was going on, and then looked at Hoshimiya Rokuko, who had his restraints untied, and was being comforted by Lacus who put his arm around his shoulders.
Apart from the wrong appearance and age, the atmosphere of this picture does look like a gentle mother comforting her daughter who has made a mistake.
But then again, Hoshimiya Rokuko seems... unexpectedly easy to please...
Just as Luo Shu was thinking this, Lux turned his head and smiled at him, saying:
"You can go to the cafe in the garden first. Our little Rokuko probably needs some time to dress up."
"Ania, you stay and help."
"Understood." Anya nodded to show that she understood.
"I'm coming too, I'm coming more."
Shinonosemu enthusiastically recommended himself, but Luo Shu grabbed him by the neck and pulled him out of the door.
"It hurts so much, really, if Luo Shujun wants to date, why don't you just say so directly? Why are you pulling me like this? Do you like forcing me?"
"Shut up, you."
After hearing these words, Luo Shu and Tokisaki Kurumi looked at each other, and then dragged Shinono no Tsukasa and Nangong Nayue out of the imprisonment room together.
-
After 1 hours.
Copernicus Leisure Area, a coffee shop next to the lake park.
At an open-air cafe.
Luo Shu and Nangong Nayue sat opposite each other.
Nangong Nayue scooped a piece of mousse cake with a spoon and put it into her mouth. At the same time, she turned her head and glanced at Luo Shu:
"You don't seem to be worried at all about Hoshimiya Rokuko going berserk?"
"Kyouzo and Dr. Shinono are watching. One of them is hiding in the shadows, and the other is hiding in the monitoring room. They will keep an eye on Rokuko."
Luo Shu, who was holding a cookbook and reading it, looked up at Nangong Nayue and said:
".' And you were the one who explained Lux's abilities to me before. Have you forgotten?"
"Of course I didn't forget, but you seem too relieved."
Nangong Nayue said this, put down the spoon, picked up the coffee beside her and took a sip, saying:
"You know, the signing of the contract focuses on you. Now that you've been excluded, isn't that a big problem?"
Although it is a good thing that Lux and Hoshimiya Rokuko have a good relationship, if Luo Shu is excluded, will there be risks in signing the contract?
This is what Nangong Nayue thought and asked.
After listening to this, Luo Shu calmly picked up the spoon and took a bite of the cake:
"Then do you think that Lux herself is not clear about this problem?"
"Hmm?" Nangong Nayue raised her eyebrows and looked at Luo Shu with a strange expression: "Wait, are you deliberately letting Lacus contact Xinggong Rokuko?"
Luo Shu smiled at this time, took a bite of cake, and said calmly:
"if not?"
"You want me, a person who just beat up Rokuko, to be a good person? Convince her to sign a contract with me?"
"Are you (Wang Qian) sure that she will believe me? Instead of taking out Feng Jie Zhu again and hitting me with a stick?"
"Instead of going through so much trouble, why not let Lux give it a try? After all, didn't you see that Rokuko subconsciously called her sister?"
"...You two." Nangong Nayue looked at Luo Shu hesitantly.
When did these two guys reach a consensus?
Then, she realized that Lacus was acting as a bridge between Luo Shu and Hoshimiya Rokuko, and she suddenly felt a strange feeling.
Why does it feel like the wife is trying hard to set up a relationship between her husband and the mistress?
Illusion?
Just when Nangong Nayue's expression was subtle.
Ding ding ding rang.
The wind chimes at the door of the coffee shop rang.
The two turned their heads and immediately saw Lacus and Hoshimiya Rokuko pushing the door open.
Seeing this, Luo Shu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and curl up the corners of his mouth and said:
"It looks like we are halfway to success~".
Chapter 57 If not brother, what should I call you?
Sitting at an open-air café near the lake, Luo Shu looked through the floor-to-ceiling glass window at the two girls, one dressed in pink and one in gold, who pushed the door and walked into the café.
They were Lacus and Hoshimiya Rokuko, who had changed into casual white dresses and put on normal human women's clothes again.
Lux pushed the door and walked into the store. She first looked around the store and finally saw Luo Shu through the glass window.
Her eyes first lit up slightly, then she smiled at Luo Shu, and then turned her head and whispered something to Hoshimiya Rokuko beside her.
At this time, Luo Shu saw that Hoshimiya Rokuko, who was originally just shrinking his neck and being led by Lacus like a little penguin following its mother penguin, turned his eyes and looked towards him.
After noticing his figure, Hoshimiya Rokuko seemed to deliberately widen his eyes, trying to put on a fierce look, wanting to warn Luo Shu.
However, with her overly delicate, porcelain doll-like face, her ferocious appearance only made people want to bully her more.
However, what surprised Luo Shu was that after giving Luo Shu a fierce look, Hoshimiya Rokuko shrank his neck again, took the initiative to pull Lacus' arm, hid himself behind Lacus, and then peeked at Luo Shu from time to time.
Seeing this scene, Luo Shu couldn't help but murmur:
"This girl has changed a lot, hasn't she?"
If you are fierce, I will be fierce to you. After all, it was me who chased you and punched you in the face just now. But now, you are cowering and timid. Are you inviting me to bully you?
Luo Shu, with strange thoughts in his mind, looked at Xingmiya Rokuko again.
Realizing that Luo Shu was looking at him, Hoshimiya Rokuko hid himself behind Lux again, but after hiding, he couldn't help but stick his head out to take a peek.
Seeing this scene, Lux smiled and gently squeezed Xinggong Li's palm, saying:
"Let's go over there."
She led Xinggong Rokuko, as if she was leading a golden retriever that was a little resistant, but also a little expectant, as if it was about to be bathed, and slowly walked towards Luo Shu.
"It seems that the training went very smoothly." Nangong Nayue's emotional voice appeared in Luo Shu's ears.
Luo Shu turned his head to look at Nangong Nayue and found that she was holding a red teacup, with one eye closed and the other eye secretly glancing in the direction of Lacus and Xinggong Liuku:
"Just look at it. Why are you doing this?"
"I'm worried that the child might rebel. After all, I was the one who led you to hunt her down before."
Nangong Nayue said this, then turned her head, opened her eyes, smiled and said:
"But now it seems that she has been 'tamed' by Lux. I just don't know if some people can achieve their own ideas."
"What? You want to make a bet with me?" Luo Shu raised his eyebrows and tried to provoke him a little.
"No bet." Nangong Nayue refused without hesitation, and said with a look of disdain: "Since you dare to bet, you must be sure. You may have just communicated with Lux through the communication on the system."
"Humph, it's not that easy to trick me."
Nangong Nayue raised her chin slightly, sipped the black tea, her eyes seemed full of disdain.
Seeing that Nangong Nayue was not fooled, Luo Shu smiled, and then heard Lux's voice:
"It seems that you are very satisfied with the afternoon tea here."
Luo Shu turned his head and watched Lacus open the seat on his left, and then patted Hoshimiya Rokuko's shoulder.
Luo Shu raised his head slightly and happened to meet Hoshimiya Rokuko's cautious gaze.
The moment his eyes met, Hoshimiya Rokuko quickly looked away and sat in the seat that Lacus had opened for him.
Lux patted Hoshimiya Rokuko's shoulder gently, then walked to the seat to the right of Luo Shu and sat down.
Now, the round table with four seats was immediately filled.
Luo Shu knocked on the glass table, then pointed at the black tea and chocolate mousse on the table and said:
"There's only black tea and chocolate mousse on the table. If you don't like it, let me know in advance and I'll call the waiter over."
Hearing this, Lux calmly picked up the black tea, took a sip, and said with a smile:
"That Yue still likes to add wine to black tea."
"Don't drink alcohol if you are underage." Nangong Nayue held the teacup and glanced at Lux.
Seeing this, Luo Shu held his chin with one hand and said to Xinggong Liuku: "I'll change a drink for you."
Xinggong Liuku didn't say anything, so Nangong Nayue snorted, "I said your little lover shouldn't drink. She's not even 20 years old yet."
"Huh?" Luo Shu was stunned for a moment, turned around, and looked at Nangong Nayue strangely: "Adulthood is 18 years old, right?"
So it seems normal to Luo Shu that Lux, who is 19 years and 10 months old, drinks?
"The drinking age in the island country is 20." Nangong Nayue closed her left eye.
".....Are you just being a rogue and looking for trouble?" Luo Shu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Let’s not talk about the fact that he was just 18 years old and drank black tea. Besides, there is a difference between adding a little whiskey flavor to black tea and drinking alcohol, right?
However, Nangong Nayue ignored Luo Shu and only glanced at Xinggong Liuku, who put his hands under the glass table and clasped them between his legs, looking a little uneasy. Then he waved to the waiter and asked:
"So, what are you going to do with this little guy at the end?"
Lux didn't answer, but just looked at the waiter who was approaching, and said to Hoshimiya Rokuko:
"Orange juice, please? Rokuko."
Xing Gongli Rokuko nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and then whispered: "Sure, onee-sama."
Hearing the name "sister", Luo Shu couldn't help but look at Hoshimiya Rokuko.
Xing Gong Liu Ku, who noticed the gaze, turned back and exchanged a glance with Luo Shu, then immediately moved away.
