Gensokyo, I am a slime, everyone loves me

"Forget it, as long as you're back, that's good. Don't worry about school, I've already requested leave for you for these two days. Just stay home today and tomorrow and spend time with your little angel."

"Thank you."

Yun Jiuling felt a surge of emotion and wanted to say more, but the phone emitted a beeping sound indicating the call had ended.

"Who were you talking to on the phone?"

The sound of footsteps echoed behind her. Yun Jiuling turned her head to look.

Her hair wasn't dry yet, and water droplets dripped from the wet strands.

A blue bath towel was wrapped around her neck. Having just finished showering, her tender, fair little face was flushed, looking particularly enticing.

Bai Luo sat on a chair behind her, his legs crossed, his two little feet dangling in the air, swaying back and forth.

"Why are you spacing out so much today?"

"Sorry, I was just thinking about something."

Yun Jiuling apologized and turned her face away, but her peripheral vision still occasionally snuck glances over.

Bai Luo followed her gaze, which finally landed on his feet. He experimentally swayed them a few times and noticed her eyes following the movement, his expression turning strange.

"Hey, hey, hey, you don't mean you want to play that kind of game, do you?"

Chapter 68: Let's Go Pay New Year Visits Together!

After playing in the outside world for two days and simply greeting Yun Jiuling and Jian Zi, Bai Luo returned to Fantasy Land.

January 28th.

Only one day left until the New Year.

Bai Luo specifically went to A Qiu to ask about the calendar in Fantasy Land. Fantasy Land didn't have the tradition of a New Year.

But that didn't matter. Bai Luo was already prepared to visit house by house for New Year's greetings and wish everyone prosperity.

Although according to his memory, only married people gave red envelopes, he also remembered that in some areas, anyone who worked gave red envelopes.

Having a job = Older than oneself + Having strength.

Bai Luo did a simple calculation and already knew who he should ask for red envelopes from.

But going to ask for them alone would be too awkward.

After much thought, Bai Luo decided to form a team of younger people to ask for red envelopes.

The first ones were Flandre and Remilia, and then...

Reimu and Marisa.

What about Kaguya and Meihong? But they seemed quite old.

Never mind, let's include them too.

Flandre, Remilia, Kaguya, Meihong, Marisa, Reimu, and himself. The team already had six people, which was about right. Too many wouldn't be good either.

Wait a minute.

Youmu should also be included, right?

According to Bai Luo's impression, Youmu's age was genuinely quite young compared to other long-lived species, even much younger than Flandre.

Include her.

Must include her.

"Knock knock knock—"

There was a knocking sound from outside the door. Bai Luo snapped back to reality and went to open it. What came into view were two pairs of fluffy, snow-white rabbit ears.

"Reisen? Inaba Tewi? Is there something you need?"

"I'm delivering medicine for Master. These are the potions to be tested next month. Sorry to trouble Young Master Bai."

Reisen laboriously took out a bamboo basket from behind her, lifted the cloth cover, revealing it was filled with potions.

Bai Luo raised an eyebrow but didn't pay much attention. With the predators and the Great Sage around, these potions were just a matter of minutes. He turned his gaze towards Inaba Tewi.

"What about little Inaba Tewi?"

"You're just like Princess! You can call me by my full name, or just Tewi, but what the heck is 'little old Inaba Tewi'?"

Inaba Tewi grumbled discontentedly.

"Just calling you Tewi is indeed quite smooth, but I feel like 'little old Inaba Tewi' sounds better."

"You..."

Inaba Tewi was exasperated, but finally let out a helpless sigh. She changed her expression and rubbed her hands together.

"Are the carrots Princess has imported from you?"

"Carrots?"

Bai Luo recalled that Kaguya would ask him for some carrots every time she left.

He reached his hand into the gap, and when he pulled it out again, he was holding a carrot.

"Take a look, is it this kind?"

Inaba Tewi excitedly took the carrot, first sniffed it, then aimed at the carrot top, bit down with a crunch, and her red eyes instantly lit up.

"This is the taste!"

"Is it that good?"

Bai Luo asked doubtfully. He had just planted these carrots casually; he didn't personally like them.

Inaba Tewi finished the carrot in a few bites and nodded heavily.

"Delicious, incredibly delicious. I feel uncomfortable all over if I don't eat it for a day."

Hearing this, Bai Luo took out another carrot, wiped it clean with his sleeve, and tentatively took a small bite.

It was crisp and juicy, with a texture like an apple, and a strong carrot flavor.

Not tasty.

Bai Luo casually threw it away.

Inaba Tewi reacted extremely quickly, swooping over the carrot in a flash.

"Don't waste it."

Saying that, she continued to gnaw from the spot where Bai Luo had bitten.

Seeing this scene, Bai Luo's eyebrow twitched almost imperceptibly, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he asked:

"So what is it you came to see me about? Just to ask this question?"

Inaba Tewi swallowed the last bit of carrot leaf, sucked her fingers, took two steps forward, held up Bai Luo's hand, and put on a pitiful expression.

"Could you spare a little carrot for a bunny?"

Bai Luo's expression was subtle. He opened a gap, and then a box of carrots landed with a thud, raising a cloud of dust.

Inaba Tewi lunged forward fiercely but plunged into a gap, only to fall back to her original spot. She rubbed the place where she had fallen and looked at Bai Luo in confusion.

"Of course, I can give them to you, but I can't just give them away for free. If you want carrots, you have to agree to one condition."

"What condition? Tell me."

Inaba Tewi patted her chest, her eyes still fixed on the box of carrots.

"It's simple. I need you to help me steal something."

"Steal something?"

Inaba Tewi blinked her eyes.

"There's a box under Kaguya's bed. Her treasure is inside. I need you to help me steal it."

"Princess's treasure?"

Inaba Tewi's rabbit ears twitched, and she frowned. "But don't you have a gap? Stealing something should be easy, right?"

"Normally, that would be the case, but that Princess Moron specifically had Yagokoro Eirin put a layer of spiritual power password lock on it. It can isolate space, and even time has no effect on it. I need you to find out the password, open the box, and get the items inside for me."

Hearing this, Inaba Tewi's brows furrowed even more tightly, feeling the task was difficult.

Just then, there were two more thuds, and two boxes of carrots landed.

"This box is just a deposit. If you can really succeed, the other two boxes will also be yours."

Bai Luo pointed at the two full boxes of carrots, completely dispelling Inaba Tewi's hesitation.

"I guarantee the mission will be completed!"

Inaba Tewi's eyes lit up, and she pounced on one of the boxes of carrots, hugging it tightly.

Bai Luo's gaze turned to the side, finding that Reisen was still standing there, staring intently at the carrots in Inaba Tewi's arms. Her timid face revealed a longing.

"Thud..."

Another box of carrots landed. Reisen turned her head and looked at Bai Luo blankly.

"Reisen, here's a box for you too."

"Re-really?"

Reisen's drooping rabbit ears perked up, and her eyes became even brighter.

"Of course."

Bai Luo walked forward and gently smoothed down the fur on her messy rabbit ears.

"Thank you, Young Master Bai!"

Reisen was overjoyed, not expecting that she would actually get a box of carrots too.

Inaba Tewi, standing nearby, widened her eyes and grumbled discontentedly.

"That's not fair! Why do I have to have a condition, but Reisen can just take it directly?"

Bai Luo raised an eyebrow and didn't reply to her question. Instead, he asked Reisen—

"Reisen, I want you to help me do..."

"Okay."

Bai Luo hadn't even finished speaking, but Reisen had already instinctively nodded in agreement. To her, Bai Luo was already comparable to a belief.

Seeing this, Inaba Tewi's eyelid twitched twice. In the end, she didn't say anything more. She used spiritual power to form ropes, tightly wrapped the box full of carrots, and put it on her back, ready to leave.

"Wait."

Bai Luo stopped her. "I still have something to tell you."

Inaba Tewi and Reisen both looked over.

"Tomorrow is the New Year. Come with me to collect New Year's red envelopes."

"New Year?"

"Collect red envelopes?"

The two of them looked confused.

Reisen was the first to ask, "Does New Year mean the new year?"

Bai Luo nodded. "It's a festival from my hometown, celebrating the arrival of the new year. Usually, younger juniors can ask older elders for red envelopes, which are gifts."

"So, tomorrow, we'll go house to house together for New Year's visits and ask for red envelopes."

Chapter 69: Quickly Come With Me to Pay New Year Visits.

When Inaba Tewi heard Bai Luo invite her to go pay New Year visits together, her expression stiffened slightly, but in the end, she still agreed with a smile.

Reisen had to politely refuse because she needed to assist Master in processing experimental materials.
