Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

Xiaoqi's best friend...

If they find out that Uesawa Sakura is living in my house, I'm doomed!

"We have guests, please step aside."

"it is good."

Without asking why, Uesawa Sakura vanished in a flash.

Ninjas are very good at hiding.

Knock knock! Soon, the doorbell rang.

Chen Nian got up and opened the door.

He wanted to see just who this "best friend" of Xiaoqi really was!

open the door.

"Hello?"

Chen Nian was stunned, and so was the other person.

The girl in front of me was wearing a red scarf, a beige coat, and jeans, and her light golden curly hair exuded youth and vitality.

Isn't that the woman who jumped off the bridge last night?

"It's you?!"

They both blurted it out at the same time.

"Are you Xiaoyu's best friend who just came back from London?"

"You're that famous...uh-huh!"

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 202ᴋᴋs.ᴄᴏᴍ]

Chen Nian immediately covered her mouth, pulled her inside, and closed the door.

Just call me Chen Nian.

"I didn't expect to run into you last night! Haha, you seem like a pretty ordinary person, quite different from the 'Silent One' who's so powerful on TV."

No wonder she asked for directions to the villa area yesterday; she was looking for him... Chen Nian was speechless.

But what did she mean by jumping off the bridge? Was she just jumping for fun?

"My name is Zi Nan, Xiao Yu usually calls me Nan Nan, you can call me that too." The girl stretched out a fair and slender hand.

"Sister Nan, what brings you here?"

Zi Nan walked into the living room without any ceremony. "I stayed at Xiao Yu's place a few days ago, and she talked about you every day. I said I wanted to meet you too, so she let me come over and see if you have any other women in your house."

"Okay, Sister Nan, feel free to look around!"

Zi Nan's gaze lingered on the pile of household items in the living room.

"This is?"

"I went to the supermarket this morning to stock up on some daily necessities."

"Quite a lot." Zi Nan said with a half-smile.

She continued walking inside and suddenly came to the refrigerator. When she opened it, she found it was filled with food.

"Wow, your fridge is so well-stocked, it doesn't look like something a single man would have!"

"Haha, I'm quite interested in cooking." Chen Nian's smile was slightly stiff.

"Zun Du, are you kidding me? A man who can cook is a rare find. Well then, I'll mooch a meal here tonight and see how your cooking is!"

"Sister Nan, I learned how to make it for Xiao Qi, how could I give you special lessons in advance?"

"Tch, Xiao Qi? I think you're just stingy! But whatever, I can't eat any more anyway."

Zi Nan didn't dwell on the matter too much. She went up to the second floor, looked around, and finally entered the room where Shang Ze Ying had slept.

"!"

Chen Nian's heart was in his throat.

They told her before that she should stay at Tang Rou's place, but if she's found out now that she's staying at their place, that would be deception!

You know, women hate liars the most.

Fortunately, Sakura Uesawa had kept the room quite clean, and since she hadn't brought much luggage, there were few signs that anyone had stayed there.

Zi Nan watched for a while when her phone rang. She answered it and deliberately put it on speakerphone.

"Nannan, have you arrived at his house?"

"We're here, Xiaoyu. I just finished watching."

"How is it?"

"It's fine, nothing's wrong with it, it meets the standards for a man living alone."

"Thank you for your help. Oh, and could you let him answer the phone?"

Zi Nan smiled and handed over the phone, which Chen Nian took: "Xiao Yu?"

"Nannan is my best friend. If she ever needs your help, please do your best to help her, even if it's just for my sake. But don't you dare try anything with her!"

"Of course, your best friend is my best friend, I'll definitely treat her well."

"Pah, pah, pah, just kidding!"

Chen Nian wasn't stupid; he could sense that Zi Nan's intentions were definitely not just to "take a look at Xiao Qi," but probably had other purposes.

"Nan-jie, how's it going?"

"It's fine, but I accidentally found something."

"What is it?"

"Open your arms."

Chen Nian opened his palm and saw Zi Nan place something on it, causing his heart to skip a beat!

A woman's hair.

"Don't be nervous, I know this is your mother's hair, it's definitely not someone else's." Zi Nan smiled playfully.

"There are many misunderstandings here... but tell me your purpose first, why don't you just call me out on it?"

Zi Nan was silent for a long time before saying, "I have something to tell you, but you must not tell Xiao Yu. She will be sad if she finds out."

What is it that you are so serious about?

Chen Nian asked, "Tell me."

Actually, I'm already dead.

"?!"

Chen Nian even suspected she was joking.

"Don't believe me? You can take a look."

Chen Nian didn't say much.

With the eye of heaven, one can see through all illusions.

He discovered that Zi Nan's body and soul were not fixed together, but rather forcibly pieced together in some way. Her soul was illusory and unstable, and she could become a real dead person at any time.

"Do you believe it now?"

"How...do you maintain this amazing state?"

"Necromancer, you should know this profession. Before I died, I used necromancy on myself, and I will only truly die when this power disappears."

No wonder the soul and body are not connected; they were forcibly pieced together using extraordinary power.

"How did he die?"

"One night, a man broke into my home in London. He was wearing white gloves and a neat suit, like a gentleman."

Zi Nan slowly said, "In London, he had a fearsome title: Jack the Ripper!"

"Jack is an extremely sadistic serial killer. Countless people have died at his hands, and they were all women."

Chen Nian noticed that Zi Nan's pupils held an undisguised fear.

"Did Jack kill you?"

"After he barged in, he said he wanted to cooperate with me."

"What kind of cooperation?"

"I'll help him turn the beautiful woman's corpse into a doll for his collection. Because I'm a necromancer, I have that ability."

Chen Nian: ......

"After I refused, he smiled and said he was sorry to bother me, took off his hat and bowed to me, and then stabbed me in the heart with a scalpel."

Zi Nan said in a trembling voice, "He's terrifyingly strong! I had absolutely no chance to resist..."

"Fortunately, I know necromancy, so he didn't defile my body. So I fled back to the Dragon Kingdom, wanting to see my parents and friends one last time before I truly die."

"What is your purpose in contacting me?" Chen Nian continued to ask.

"After returning to China, I received a phone call from Jack. He said... he would definitely find me, and I couldn't escape his grasp."

Zi Nan bit her lip: "I'm scared. I want to die peacefully, without my body and soul being defiled by that murderer. That's why I thought of coming to find you."

"He doesn't even spare the dead?"

"That's right... he would cut open the stomachs of the dead and suck their souls; he was a true demon!"

Chen Nian suddenly realized.

She jumped off the bridge last night, trying to see if she could die quickly.

Clearly, she failed.

"You want me to protect you until you're truly dead?"

"Or, you can simply obliterate my soul. I believe you can do it." Zi Nan's face was full of seriousness; she wasn't joking.

Of course, Chen Nian can indeed do that.

The Ten Beasts Summoning Technique requires soul power! By absorbing more soul energy, he can summon even more powerful Ten Beasts.

But he clearly can't be directly absorbed by people...

"Don't worry, you're back in China now. He's in London and can't threaten you," Chen Nian reassured him with a smile.

Even he himself found it absurd that he was comforting a dead person.

"I hope so."

Just then, Chen Nian received a message from Hei Zi.

[Boss, a case has occurred near Luzhou Airport. A flight attendant was found with her chest ripped open; her death was gruesome! I checked the records, and it's very likely the work of Jack the Ripper, who caused such a stir in London.]

[Just letting you know, since Xiaoqi lives in Luzhou.]
