Absolutely legitimate Star Iron, I've awakened the Underworld System?

　"No...nothing..."

　March 7th sobbed, trying to cover it up with an excuse.

　"It's...it's about eating the special snacks that Belleberg bought, those super spicy dried salamanders, and then it got so spicy...Ugh, ugh, it's so spicy..."

Chapter Three: I'm an Indecent Woman

　"I see. Then take care of yourself and come find me if you need anything," Himeko instructed.

　"Okay, I understand. Goodbye, Himeko..."

　I hung up the phone on March 7th and couldn't calm down for a long time.

　She sobbed softly, like a wounded kitten, helpless and pitiful.

　Putting down her phone, she looked at Bai Qiong again, her heart filled with twisted emotions and unease.

　I don't know what to do on March 7th.

　Should we pretend nothing happened, or have a proper talk with Bai Qiong?

　The most crucial issue is that I really don't know whether or not we did that last night.

　If they did, who seduced whom first?

　Thinking of his blurry, embarrassing drunken state, March 7th felt a sense of unease...

　Could it be that she got entangled with Bai Qiong first?

　If that's the case, how would Bai Qiong view himself? Would he hate himself for being so unchaste?

　Even if Bai Qiong doesn't dislike him, what if the other members of the train crew find out?

　On March 7th, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Finally, she couldn't hold back her tears and they dripped onto the quilt, spreading out like tiny water droplets.

　She sobbed softly, like a wounded kitten, helpless and pitiful.

　Of course, if Bai Qiong knew that San Yueqi had such thoughts in her mind, she would definitely give her a good scolding!

　This silly woman, she's always thinking nonsense...

　Speaking of Bai Qiong, he happened to wake up at that moment.

　His eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

　When Bai Qiong opened his eyes, he saw San Yueqi crying with tears streaming down her face, and he was immediately stunned.

　"Little March, what's wrong?"

　Bai Qiong's voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of languor from just waking up.

　When March 7 heard Bai Qiong's voice, her body trembled violently. She looked up at Bai Qiong with teary eyes, not knowing what to say for a moment.

　"You...you're awake..."

　March 7th's voice was choked with sobs, making it sound especially endearing.

　"Well, I'm awake."

　Bai Qiong nodded, then sat up and rubbed her throbbing temples. "Last night... what happened afterwards?"

　He remembered that he seemed to have been hit by a "wine pot" on March 7th, and then he remembered nothing else.

　"I...I don't know..."

　March 7th lowered her head, not daring to look into Bai Qiong's eyes.

　Bai Qiong looked at March 7's appearance, filled with doubt. He carefully surveyed the room, noticing that March 7's clothes were disheveled, while his own was half-naked, and the bed was a mess...

　Could it be that last night I was with March 7th...?

　A terrible thought flashed through Bai Qiong's mind, and he quickly shook his head, trying to shake it out of his head.

　Impossible! How could I have done such a thing?

　I was clearly knocked unconscious, so nothing should have happened!

　You shouldn't have this kind of thinking...

　However, at that moment, a system notification popped up in his mind.

　"Ding!"

　[Target's corruption value increased by 5% on March 7th]

　Current corruption level: 5%

　[Trigger keyword: believing oneself to be an immoral woman]

　[Please continue your efforts, host, to further develop the Starry Sky Railway into its inner world.]

　Bai Qiong: ? ? ?

　……

　What does it mean?

　I haven't done anything yet, so how did my corruption value increase by 5%?

　Why does March 7th suddenly feel like an indecent woman again?

　No, no, we must quickly correct this strange idea of ​​celebrating March 7th!

　Bai Qiong coughed lightly and said to San Yueqi with a serious expression, "Little San Yue, actually last night..."

　"Don't say it! Please don't say it..."

　March 7th interrupted Bai Qiong with a hoarse voice, "I already know, I know everything! You must think I'm a bad woman, right? Waaaaah..."

　Bai Qiong felt a headache coming on; what was going on here?

　He quickly waved his hand and hurriedly explained, "Little March, you've really misunderstood. I've never thought of you as a bad woman. Please don't think of yourself that way!"

　"Waaah... You don't need to comfort me anymore, I know, I know everything..."

　On March 7th, she cried even more bitterly, tears falling like beads from a broken string, wetting the front of her clothes.

　Bai Qiong felt a pang of helplessness as he looked at San Yueqi's tearful face.

　He really wanted to explain, but March 7th didn't give him a chance at all...

　In her past life, Bai Qiong always scoffed at scenes in movies and TV dramas where the woman refused to listen to the other person's explanation and then threw a tantrum, thinking it was so absurd.

　At worst, just ignore everything and shout out what you want to say.

　But when Bai Qiong actually encountered this situation, he found that he couldn't shout at all.

　At this point, the louder you speak, the more likely you are to provoke the other person...

　Moreover, no matter what he says now, March 7th won't listen.

　She choked back sobs, her eyes turning incredibly red.

　Like a frightened puppy, filled with unease and fear, it gave Bai Qiong no chance to comfort it.

　Ugh……

　It seems we can only wait until Xiaosanyue calms down before making any further decisions.

　Bai Qiong couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

　He looked at March 7's trembling shoulders and listened to her suppressed sobs, a strange emotion welling up inside him.

　March 7th looked so pitiful, it really broke my heart.

　As a man, you can't just stand by and do nothing while a woman cries in front of you, can you?

　Bai Qiong thought to himself.

　He gently leaned closer, reached out, and pulled March 7th into his arms.

　When a woman is going through a vulnerable phase, there's nothing a hug can't solve.

　If there is...

　Then try hugging it a little longer!

　March 7's body stiffened slightly, seemingly not expecting Bai Qiong to suddenly hug him.

　She looked up at Bai Qiong through teary eyes, her gaze filled with doubt and unease.

　Bai Qiong gently patted March 7's back and softly comforted her, "Little March, don't cry, it's really nothing. Nothing really happened between us last night."

　"You...you're lying..."

　March 7th's voice was choked with sobs as she said haltingly, "You...you've taken off your clothes...I...I also..."

　"That's because...because..."

　Bai Qiong was speechless for a moment. When he was knocked unconscious by March 7th with a wine bottle, his clothes were still intact.

　When I woke up, my clothes were gone...

　Now, he himself is starting to doubt whether anything actually happened between him and March 7th.

　After all, the system notification sound was still echoing in his ears.

　Corruption value increased by 5%...

　The system notification was practically saying that something unspeakable had happened between him and March 7th.

　But I clearly have no memory of it at all!

　That's so weird...

Chapter Four: I don't want anyone else to know about this either.

　"Are you... unwilling to take responsibility...?"

　March 7th sobbed as she spoke, her voice growing softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

　"I……"

　Bai Qiong opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
