As Komachi approached the riverbank, ripples appeared on the water, and the next moment, a boat appeared on the shore.
Komachi jumped on first, gesturing for Bai An to board as well.
Bai An glanced at the nearly broken-down ferry, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to climb onto it.
The boat slowly began to head towards the center of the river.
"Your ship looks quite old. Don't you have any other spare ships?"
Bai An looked at the ferry boat, its hull covered in scratches, and couldn't help but complain.
"Yes, there are some, but I have to apply for one, which is a hassle. I plan to wait until it's completely broken before replacing it."
Komachi scratched her head, looking rather embarrassed.
Hearing the other party's devilish words, several black lines appeared between Bai An's brows.
Replace it only when it's completely broken, like trading a soul for a boat, right?
Suddenly, Bai An remembered something, patted Xiao Machi on the shoulder, and pointed in the direction of the Bridge of Helplessness.
"Can you replace your Bridge of Helplessness? It just collapsed completely."
"Hmm?" Komachi looked in the direction he was pointing and blinked at the empty shore.
His face fell visibly, and he looked at Bai An with disbelief.
"How... how did the Bridge of Helplessness collapse!?"
Her tone was filled with grief and indignation; she could already imagine how Lord Shiki would punish her once he found out about this.
It's clearly going to be a hell of lecturing; this time, it probably won't stop until it's been ten days or half a month of scolding.
She couldn't do anything to betray her friends.
Seeing her grief and indignation, Bai An swallowed hard and guiltily looked away.
"Would you believe me if I said I just walked around on it a few times and it collapsed by itself?"
When Bai An asked in a low voice, Xiao Machi did not answer. Her deep red eyes stared straight at him, her little face full of disbelief.
Ultimately, after Bai An's repeated assurances and the temptation of three boxes of sweets, Komachi reluctantly believed him.
However, despite her belief, the look of misery on her face did not diminish in the slightest.
She was wondering what excuse she could use to fool Lord Shiki.
Looking at Komachi's heartbroken face, Bai An felt a pang of guilt and couldn't help but offer words of comfort.
"It's okay, it's not your fault. Just say I did it, and your boss will only scold you at most."
However, his words only made Komachi more upset, her face scrunched up, and she looked like she was about to cry.
Finally, after Bai An's repeated reassurances and her request to report the truth, she calmed down.
Led by Komachi, the two quickly reached the other side.
A sea of pink and purple flowers spread out in a fan shape across the land of hell, dyeing the entire field of vision pink, like a painting.
The red spider lily blooms for a thousand years, its leaves unfold for a thousand years, and in the end, it is its unique beauty that is rewarded.
Known as the most beautiful flower in the world, it remains stunningly beautiful even in hell.
"These are the red spider lilies, aren't they beautiful?"
Komachi pointed to the sea of spider lilies in front of her, her deep red eyes filled with anticipation, as if she were imagining the scene of Bai An's shock.
However...
"It is indeed quite beautiful, but not as spectacular as my family's fragrant sunflower field."
"what?"
Komachi was stunned. She knew about the sunflower field. It was the territory of that flower tyrant, Kazami Yuuka. Although the spider lilies of hell were beautiful, they were not as spectacular as the sunflower field.
But... what's with the "fragrant scent" in his house?
It hasn't been long since I last went to the mortal world. What exactly happened during that time?
Such an outrageous thing has actually happened? She felt she should calm down and sort out her thoughts.
"Is the sunflower field you mentioned a sea of sunflowers? And is the fragrance you mentioned Yuuka Kazami?"
"Yes, she's my girlfriend."
Upon hearing this, Komachi felt as if her cerebellum had shrunk, and she stared at Bai An in disbelief.
The latter had arrived at a spider lily and pulled out a shovel from somewhere.
"We're digging up spider lilies across the river, aren't you sure you won't get scolded by your boss?"
"It's not allowed, but as long as it's not a large-scale excavation, it won't have any impact. Besides, Lord Shiki doesn't usually come here."
After regaining her composure, Komachi offered an explanation.
"Is your Four Seasons Master scary? You seem quite afraid of her."
Bai An asked curiously, noting that every time Komachi mentioned her Shiki-sama, a look of fear would appear on her face, as if a mouse had seen a cat.
"Of course I'm scared! You have no idea how terrifying Lady Shiki is. When she starts lecturing, she can go on for three days and three nights straight. If you make a mistake, you're bound to get a lecture. And if you lose focus during the lecture, you'll get a whack on the head with a repentance stick!"
"Is the Four Seasons Master you're talking about the one with short green hair and a stick in his hand?"
Looking at the green-haired loli behind Komachi, Bai An interrupted her complaint.
"how do you know."
Komachi paused, then realized that Bai An was staring at her from behind. She swallowed hard, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.
"Lord of the Four Seasons".
Komachi turned stiffly and met Shiki Eiki's gloomy face, causing her to tremble.
"Komachi, am I that scary? Are my lectures that boring?"
The light, airy tone sounded like a terrible scare to Komachi.
"Fourth, Lord Four Seasons, please listen to me???"
"boom!"
"Waaah—"
Before Komachi could finish speaking, she was met with a blow from Shiki Eiki's repentance staff.
"Why am I lecturing you? Isn't it for your own good, to help you change? Do you think you deserve your position by slacking off every day? With great power comes great responsibility!"
Shiki Eiki stood there, arms crossed, her green eyes fixed on Komachi, her face filled with disappointment and frustration.
Bai An, standing to the side, twitched his lips as he watched Komachi crouch down with her head in a defensive posture.
At the same time, Komachi also looked in his direction, her teary, peach-shaped eyes flashing with a pleading light.
Bai An gave her a reassuring look, then walked towards Shiki Eiki.
Putting aside the fact that Komachi was blamed because of him, he can't go back on his own, and he needs this guy to take him back.
In the end, Bai An also joined the ranks of those being lectured, looking at the green fur ball in front of him with a look of utter despair.
He now understood why Yukari Yakumo used the Gap to send him to hell and then ran away without looking back.
The little girl in front of me is none other than Yama, the Queen of Hell. I can't hit her, and I can't reason with her.
Yakumo Yukari didn't even bother to remind him, and he just wondered why that guy was smiling so sinisterly.
Extremely frustrated, Bai An took out his notebook and silently added a stroke to the page that belonged to Yakumo Yukari.
...
"I'll let you off the hook this time, but you can't make the same mistake again next time, understand?"
Eiki Shiki withdrew her repentance stick and gave a serious warning, which left Komachi stunned. Lady Shiki had only scolded them for about ten minutes before letting them go?
Seemingly noticing Komachi's strange look, Shiki Eiki glared at her.
"Bai An brought fried shrimp. It would be such a waste if they got cold and didn't taste good. I'm just trying to avoid waste."
Shiki Eiki explained without blushing or skipping a beat, which relieved Bai An standing to the side.
Before he left, Youxiang asked him to make some fried shrimp, saying it might be of unexpected use. At first, he felt confused, since if he really encountered any trouble, how could some fried shrimp solve the problem?
But now it seems that fried shrimp is really the only solution.
Thinking of this, Bai An felt a mix of grief and indignation.
He then asked why Yuuka, who loves flowers so much, wouldn't come with him to pick spider lilies.
They clearly know what's going on here!
At the same time, Shiki Eiki opened the box containing fried shrimp, her little face full of anticipation.
The fried shrimp inside the box did not disappoint her either; the moment she opened the box, a golden light burst out from it.
"It smells so good!"
Shiki Eiki's emerald green eyes were filled with excitement.
She picked up a fried shrimp, popped it into her mouth, and savored it slowly with an expression of enjoyment on her face.
"Mmm, this is delicious! Where did you buy your fried shrimp?"
She put the lid back on, looked up, and asked earnestly.
"I made this myself, I didn't buy it."
Bai An was slightly taken aback, not expecting that the green-haired little dumpling in front of him liked fried shrimp so much.
However, this could be a good opportunity to improve her favorability, since she is Yama, the King of Hell, and it's always good to have a good relationship with her.
Knowing that the fried shrimp wasn't from the human village, Shiki Eiki's eyes dimmed slightly. She had originally planned to buy a few more servings of fried shrimp to try next time she went on a business trip to the human world, but she never expected that it was actually made by Bai An herself.
Although she was reluctant to part with such delicious fried shrimp, she couldn't force someone else to make it for her.
This is so delicious, let's save it and enjoy it slowly when we get home.
Having figured this out, Shiki Eiki's face regained some vitality, and she put the box of fried shrimp into her bosom.
However, the next moment, Bai An handed over two more identical boxes.
