“That’s true. Going to Hawaii would be almost halfway around the world, and the travel would be quite tiring.” Haruhara Nana didn’t insist on her opinion. After all, the idea of ​​going to Hawaii was just something she came up with on a whim and hadn’t thought about it carefully.

Kazami Yuri smiled and said, "While beaches are nice, I personally think hot springs are more suitable for group trips. As long as we leave Tokyo, we can go anywhere in the country. Kyoto has many scenic spots and hot springs, doesn't it?"

Li Wei thought both of the girls' suggestions were good. At the beach, he could admire the girls in their swimsuits, while at a hot spring hotel, he could do even more enjoyable things. After all, there's an unwritten rule in Japan that short trips for couples usually involve staying at hot spring hotels in places with hot springs, enjoying the local customs and the hot springs at the same time.

The Japanese have a deep passion for bathing, and hot springs can be considered an upgraded version of bathing, a more enjoyable experience. That's why there are so many hot spring hotels in Japan.

Yuzu Yukimoto said, "Everyone's suggestions are great, but isn't anyone thinking of going on a trip to Japan?"

Tsukimi Risuke said curiously, "Oki Country? The mysterious Eastern dragon, I'm quite curious about it."

Yuzuki Yuzu said, "Brother Li Wei is from Chongguo. If we travel to Chongguo, we might even be able to visit his hometown. Chongguo has a lot of delicious food... Slurp... There was once a foreigner from a Western country who boasted that he would eat his way through all of Chongguo within three years. He started from Sichuan province, but three years later, he was still stuck in Sichuan. If we go to Chongguo, we can taste all of Chongguo's delicious food!"

Chongguo has always held a special position in Asia, practically a powerful patron nation. Its formidable national strength and profound culture make it a monster-like presence for other players in the Asian region. In this world, Chongguo is the true elder brother of Asia, its ability to suppress other nations is undeniable.

The girls chattered away, discussing for a long time, but still couldn't reach a final decision. However, through the discussion, they eliminated many alternatives. Now, their task was to choose the most suitable option from the remaining choices.

Li Wei let the girls discuss it slowly, while he left the dining room to go upstairs to find Shiina Mari.

Just now, while the girls were excitedly discussing where they were going on vacation, Shiina Mari made a phone call to her father, and the two of them argued on the phone. Shiina Mari is currently in her most helpless moment.

Chapter 1. Before the Finale

Li Wei stopped outside Shiina Mari's door and gently knocked.

At this moment, Shiina Mari was lying on her futon on the floor, thinking about her future. She had just had an argument with her father and realized that there were differences between her and her parents.

Although her father would forgive her if she simply apologized, the thought of Shiina Aki chilled her to the bone. What would her parents do if she faced a similar situation in the future?

That's why she refused to bow down to her father. She knew that if she did, he would cut off her allowance, and she would have to work to survive. However, she simply couldn't accept this situation; in the face of money, both her father and mother had become twisted.

This family had already fallen apart from the moment Shiina Aki announced her disappearance; now, she and her parents were no longer strangers.

Hearing the knock on the door, Shiina Mari sat up and said, "Who is it?!"

“It’s me, Li Wei. I noticed you were eating very quickly just now, which isn’t good for your stomach. I brought you some digestive medicine so you won’t have an upset stomach tonight,” Li Wei said.

Shiina Mari paused for a moment. Compared to her hypocritical parents, Li Wei, an outsider, seemed much more sincere. She didn't know why she felt this way.

Shiina Mari stood up and opened the door for Li Wei.

Looking at Shiina Mari's still slightly red eyes, Li Wei had a clear understanding of her situation. In other words, the reason why Shiina Mari's family relationships had become like this was because he had been pushing things along behind the scenes.

Although Shiina Mari's parents didn't care enough about Shiina Aki, they weren't irresponsible parents either. However, human nature can't withstand the test, and only a minority can. The vast majority of ordinary people are like this.

It is precisely because of this that Li Wei's completely open strategy has achieved its current effect.

"Are you alright, Jasmine? You don't look too good right now," Li Wei said with concern.

"I'm fine, please come in and sit down." Shiina Mari stepped aside; the room looked a little messy at the moment.

Shiina Mari is a clean and tidy person, but after Shiina Aki disappeared, she lost interest in tidying up her room. As a result, her room looks a bit boyish, with things just haphazardly tidied up and roughly categorized. It's not really tidy at all.

Li Wei found a place to sit down and said, "The police have closed the case now, Jasmine, what are your plans? Tokyo isn't safe right now, and staying here for a long time isn't a good idea."

Shiina Mari fell silent. If it were before, she would have thought that no matter whether she could find her younger brother or not, she would return to her hometown and continue her life after this matter was over. But now she changed her mind because she didn't know how to face her parents, so she decided to stay in Tokyo.

Tokyo might be dangerous, but as long as she stays at Sunohara-so, she's a member of Sunohara-so. Unless she does something reckless, there shouldn't be any problems. This way, she can stay away from her parents and ensure her own safety.

Shiina Mari said, "I plan to stay here. Although Tokyo is dangerous, I don't know where else I can go."

Li Wei said, "Staying here? I have no objection, but Jasmine, you should be prepared. Tokyo is in a lot of chaos lately. Since you plan to stay, we can't leave you behind."

"What happened?" Shiina Mari asked curiously.

“The third volume of Qin’s Secret Manual has been discovered, and everyone is fighting tooth and nail over it. If we let them continue like this, even Chunyuan Manor won’t be able to escape unscathed. So we’re preparing to leave to avoid the storm,” Li Wei said.

"You're leaving Sunohara-sou?" Shiina Mari asked in surprise.

“That’s right. The danger level in Tokyo will rise sharply in the coming period. It’s safe to say that even the eastern battlefield may not be as dangerous as Tokyo. I personally can protect myself, but protecting those around me will be very difficult. Rather than waiting to be killed, it’s better to get away from here, at least that will ensure everyone’s safety,” Li Wei said.

Shiina Mari was still somewhat stunned. She hadn't expected that even a place as absolute as Haruhara-sou could no longer maintain its position and needed to temporarily avoid the limelight.

"Even Li Weijun, you can't protect Chunyuan Manor anymore?" Shiina Mari was beyond surprised.

"There's nothing we can do about it, so I plan to take the rest of the people from the manor to seek refuge elsewhere. We can't stay in Tokyo, but we don't have this problem in other places. Since you're planning to stay here, then come with us. However, our final destination hasn't been decided yet; they're still having a meeting downstairs to discuss it," Li Wei said with a smile.

Shiina Mari nodded. She didn't care where they went. As long as she could stay by Li Wei's side, that was enough. Being by Li Wei's side wasn't just about feeling safe; it was about feeling truly safe.

“I’m fine with going anywhere. As for the rent, I’ll try to pay it off as soon as possible,” Shiina Mari said.

"The rent doesn't matter. You can stay here as long as you want, it's fine. After all, I couldn't fulfill my promise to you, so this is like paying back a debt," Li Wei said.

“Li Weijun, you don’t owe me anything, nor do you owe my parents anything. I already know your intentions. So, I will pay the rent; it’s just a matter of time,” Shiina Mari said.

Shiina Mari doesn't have a stable income right now. After all, she's just an ordinary high school student. If she only works part-time and doesn't rely on her family's support, it would be very difficult for her to pay the annual rent for Haruhara-sou.

Of course, since she said she would pay the rent, she would definitely find a way to pay it in full. Whether the two managers, Li Wei and Haruhara Ayaka, would accept it or not was another matter; whether she, as the tenant, would pay it or not was yet another matter.

Li Wei said, "Don't force yourself. It's better not to push yourself too hard. No matter what, I understand you and I will protect you."

Li Wei thought to himself, the final act can finally begin. In this world, he has already won over all the girls he cares about. It's time to put an end to his days in this world.

Chapter 1. Countdown

Li Wei brought Shiina Mari upstairs. Inside the living room, the girls were still discussing where to go on their next trip.

The remaining options were all very attractive, which is why no one could make up their minds. Everyone finally experienced the feeling of not being able to have their cake and eat it too.

When the girls saw Shiina Mari following behind them, the atmosphere immediately turned cold, leaving Shiina Mari feeling awkward.

Li Wei said, "There's no need for everyone to be shy. Jasmine has decided to stay at Chun Yuan Manor, and from now on, we'll all be companions day and night. It's true that Aki's disappearance has had a certain impact on everyone, but those who remain still have to live their lives, so there's no need to be shy. If people can't get over the shadows of the past, they can't move forward. I believe Jasmine will be able to get through it."

Shiina Mari knew that if she wanted to settle down here, she had to build good relationships with the original residents of Sunohara-sou. Before, she was just a temporary guest who would leave after a short time, but now she was a tenant and her status was no different from others, so she had to be more low-key in her conduct.

Fortunately, she is a very polite person, so even when she was most emotional, she was very courteous to the tenants here, and there was no awkwardness between them, which made it much easier for her to integrate.

Shiina Mari was pushed forward by Li Wei. She bowed to everyone and said with a composed and elegant demeanor, "I am truly sorry for what happened before. Please forgive my embarrassment. Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Shiina Mari, and from today onwards, I am also a member of Sunohara-sou. I hope we can get along well. That's all."

Ayaka Haruhara smiled and said, "There are new members joining us, and this place is becoming more and more lively. This kind of life is something I never dared to imagine in the past."

Ayaka Haruhara sighed inwardly, "Indeed, money is a good thing. In the past, we used to live frugally, but now with a tycoon like Li Wei, the environment of Haruhara Manor has improved, and everyone's quality of life has increased dramatically."

This kind of life, free from financial hardship, was what she had always dreamed of. Spending every precious day together with everyone was a small wish in her heart, and also her unique happiness.

Haruhara Nana said, "That's true. Now, the atmosphere in the dorm feels much better. Everyone is like family. I guess that's what fate is between people."

Nana Haruhara's words made the others nod in agreement. All the girls present felt that fate was such a wonderful thing, and it was because of the existence of Haruhara-sou that they were able to meet Li Wei.

Li Wei said, "It seems that everyone still hasn't decided where to go after we come out. Caihua, which places have the most votes right now?"

Ayaka Haruhara laughed and said, "Okinawa, Falasi, Kyoto in Japan, and Hetalia."

“There are only four places left, but it’s still hard to choose. There’s a reason to go to each one,” Li Wei said.

“Yes, that’s why it’s so hard for everyone to make up their minds,” Ayaka Sunohara said with a smile.

Sui Jin said, "Let's forget about Hetalia. I've heard that yakuza organizations are rampant there, the so-called Mafia. Many foreign tourists who travel to Rome encounter local thieves and the Mafia, so their travel experience isn't very good."

Li Wei watched the girls continue arguing without interrupting. At this moment, he had already controlled his various puppet clones to arrive at the designated location. As soon as the time came, these puppet clones would start fighting and causing as much destruction as possible to create the atmosphere of the final battle.

Li Wei also specially dispatched two teams of puppet clones. One team headed towards the Imperial Palace, while the other team headed towards a certain sacred toilet. When the curtain rises, these two places will inevitably be visited.

Li Wei returned to his room and continued to meticulously plan. This was the final battle, and it was also to ensure that the girls could enter the floating island smoothly, so everything had to be arranged properly.

Levi's senses kept an eye on the living room. Around 10 p.m., the girls finally chose their destination. After several rounds of discussion, they decided on Falaise. Levi wanted to complain inwardly. A few years ago, Falaise was indeed a tourist hotspot, but now, chimpanzees roamed the streets. It was less like going on a trip and more like going to a giant, unfenced zoo.

The security situation in Falaisi is actually not much better than in Hetalia. The problem in Hetalia is the uncontrolled mafia, which has become a shadow regime in the area. Foreign tourists cannot even guarantee their personal safety. Therefore, even though Hetalia is known as a tourist destination, one should consider how its security situation compares to that in northern Myanmar before going there.

The practice of "gā yāo zī" (a type of meat dish) isn't limited to northern Myanmar. Local warlords can do it, and the mafia can do it just as well, and even more professionally.

Falaise's situation is a case of reaping what it sowed. The deeper the rule in Africa, the harsher the backlash. The influx of Black people has led to a decline in overall security, and the once romantic Falaise has been tainted by darkness. This environment is extremely unfriendly to female tourists, and its danger level is comparable to that of the White Elephant.

Even in China, there are places like "Guang Kanda". Fortunately, as long as you avoid these areas, most places in China are safe or above the poverty line, unlike in Europe and America where you can't go out after 10 pm.

However, the question of where to go is just a smokescreen put out by Li Wei. After 10 PM, the final battle will begin, and at that time, asking questions like "where to go" will be meaningless.

Haruhara Ayaka smiled and asked, "Li Wei-kun, where do you think would be the most suitable place to go?"

Li Wei smiled and said, "I won't offer any opinions on this matter; it's entirely up to you to decide. Anyway, once you've made your decision, I'll start arranging the plane tickets. It's best to make a decision within the next couple of days; the sooner you leave, the safer you'll be."

The girls all nodded; Li Wei was telling the truth, at least that's how they perceived it.

Chapter. Titan

The girls, tired of their discussion, returned to their rooms. After saying goodnight to Ayaka Haruhara, Li Wei also went back to his room and turned his attention to his various puppet clones.

Although the main show is scheduled to start at 10:00 AM, the warm-up activities before the main show have already begun.

At the very top of Tokyo Tower, a tall figure stood atop the tower. He was a majestic man with long, golden hair, over two meters tall. His long hair, ruffled by the evening breeze, and his ancient Greek-style armor made him look like a lion standing upright.

Three bamboo scrolls moved steadily beside him, the golden light emanating from them growing ever brighter. Several helicopters circled Tokyo Tower; these were Self-Defense Force armed helicopters. The Japanese government pays close attention to events occurring on its own territory, so this unusual scene also caught their attention.

The burly man raised his hand, and a blue blade of energy shot out, instantly severing the tail rotor of the civilian helicopter. Without its tail rotor, the helicopter lost its balance and spun downwards. Seconds later, a burst of flames shot into the sky, and a deafening roar carried for a great distance.

This scene caused the helicopters circling Tokyo Tower to move away from the dangerous man in gold. After several helicopters had distanced themselves, the door of one of the helicopters opened, and several photographers pointed their large hands at the top of the tower. After adjusting the focus, they were able to clearly capture the man in gold's facial features.

"Steady up the camera, I can't keep the shot steady!" the head of the photography team in charge of the scene said loudly.

The cockpit crew member turned around and shouted, "You lunatics! If I slow down, none of us will survive! Who cares about anything else right now!"

"This is a mission assigned by the cabinet. What's the point of landing safely if we fail to complete it? We'll still be punished! Maybe it would be easier to die here!" the person in charge cursed.

The clerk was speechless, because the mission he had been given was a suicide mission. For those lords above him, killing an ordinary person like him was as easy as crushing an ant. But if he angered the lords and his family was implicated, that would be an even more tragic thing.

"Then I'll get closer. Since none of you are afraid of death, I'll go crazy with you!" The pilot gritted his teeth, pulled the control stick, and the helicopter he was controlling broke away from the group, getting closer to Tokyo Tower.

The golden-haired man took a deep breath and, with a voice like thunder, proclaimed loudly, "Rejoice! Your king has been born! I am your ruler, your future guide. Bow down before me! Only those who submit to me are worthy to share in this new world!"
