I am the devil, I only know how to trade.

"You don't still have any humanity left, do you?" Gabriel's pupils contracted slightly. "Isn't it said that only angels and demons like us, born with human emotions and weaknesses, have? You shouldn't!"

"Humanity? I really don't know if I have it or not," Luo Feng laughed. "But I do have some memories."

"Don't tell anyone about this," Gabriel whispered. "It would be troublesome if they found out."

“It would have been troublesome before, but not now,” Luo Feng said. “You all think I’m crazy, including the other demons, so they don’t tend to mess with me. As for having memories, Hell can’t find out my past identity. If I really want to find out, I can only go to Heaven. I believe many demons would like to see me cause trouble in Heaven.”

"Please don't!" Gabriel exclaimed in surprise. "Going to Heaven yourself is like sending yourself to hell!"

"We'll see," Luo Feng said. "I'm not particularly interested in knowing the answer to this question, but I do have this thought. I need to know first whether someone has tampered with it."

At this point, Luo Feng revealed a playful smile.

"How unguarded you are with me?" Gabriel said. "Shouldn't this fall under the category of secrets?"

"Even if you told someone else what I, a devil, said, would they believe you?" Luo Feng said with a half-smile, "How do you know if I'm having a serious conversation with you, or if I'm trying to trick you into contacting Heaven and having them deploy important troops at the entrance and identity checkpoints, so that Hell can launch an attack on Heaven?"

"contract……"

"You don't really think the ceasefire agreement will work, do you?" Luo Feng's gaze returned to the game screen: "That's not a devil's contract; Heaven also contributed."

Gabriel shut her mouth.

She hated devils the most. She really didn't know if Luo Feng was telling the truth or not. If she reported his words, it would probably cause a lot of headaches for a bunch of people.

The devil's words are full of traps; what you think might be true may contain hidden wordplay.

For example, regarding his memories of his previous life, he could easily say that he felt reborn at some point in time!

"Alright, let's go back early." Luo Feng stood up and said softly, "I have guests coming over, I need to think about how to make things more interesting."

"What a perverted guy..." Gabriel suddenly remembered something and quickly grabbed Luo Feng: "You paid for the housekeeping, right?"

"Payment done."

Luo Feng thought that Gabriel would definitely become a shameful fallen angel in the future.

However, this also makes it easier for me to get some interesting information from her.

Chapter 035? The Empty Silver of Nature

When Sora Ginko arrived at her teacher's house, Luo Feng had just gone to Gabriel's place; he hadn't gone with Sora Ginko.

This is also part of the training process. First, you need to lower her guard and make her think that Luo Feng has gotten everything she wants. In this way, as long as Kong Yinzi endures it every night, her life will be no different from usual.

She only needs to rent an apartment and lie that she lives there to study chess, and there won't be any major problems; she can keep it a secret.

Her parents didn't interfere much with her; whether it was shogi or anything else, they consulted with her teacher more often.

"Gin-chan, you're here." Kiyotaki Keika greeted Gin-chan as she entered.

This time, it wasn't just Yaichi Kuzuryu who was involved; it also included their master, Kosuke Kiyotaki, the master of the Kiyotaki Dojo, known as the Emperor of Naniwa.

"Master, Sister Guixiang, Junior Brother, I'm here." After shattering her illusions about Yaichi Kuzuryu, Sora found that meeting him wasn't so unacceptable.

Mingming was with another man last night...

Her face flushed almost imperceptibly.

Could it be that I've really let go? Let go in just one day?

More cold-blooded than I imagined...

No, no, who I like is my business, it's a private matter, and it has nothing to do with him.

Besides, you were the one who hid your relationship with other women from me, and you were ambiguous with too many women. You're a scumbag!

Regarding her feelings for Yaichi Kuzuryu, it was because she subconsciously hid her emotions; this is a human self-protection mechanism, not because Luo Feng did anything drastic.

Luo Feng was waiting to see her look of despair, so why would he do anything unnecessary?

"Senior sister." Kuzuryuu Babi nodded.

"Gin-chan, come, sit down. I heard you've developed a new battle tactic." Kiyotaki Kosuke quickly gestured for Sora Gin-chan to sit down.

"Hmm." This time, Sora Ginko was very confident and knelt down gracefully.

"Tell me..."

"Dad," Kiyotaki Keika rolled her eyes at Kiyotaki Kosuke, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"A new tactic, a tactic we didn't even know existed," Kiyotaki Kosuke said with dissatisfaction.

"Let's eat something first, chat casually, and then talk about shogi," Kiyotaki Keika said.

Kiyotaki Kosuke found it a bit strange. He knew how much his daughter loved shogi, so why was she talking about something else now?

Kiyotaki Keika ignored her father, sat down at the table, and didn't pick up the shogi board.

"Gin-chan, did that person come to pick you up again last night? What does he do?" Kiyotaki Keika asked Sora Gin-chan.

“He…” Sora Ginko had already prepared her words on the way, but when she glanced at Kuzuryu Yaichi, she wanted to retaliate by saying that he was her boyfriend. But then she thought that if Keika and the others asked her to bring him over to meet them… wouldn’t that be like inviting a wolf into the house?

Even if she had given up on her feelings for Yaichi Kuzuryu, the two of them had grown up together since childhood.

Furthermore, her mind is now entirely focused on shogi, which is the only hope for her, and she has not harbored any resentment out of love, nor would she possibly betray her own people.

“He is my older brother,” Sora said softly. “I don’t have a good relationship with my relatives and friends, and I don’t have much contact with him. He just suddenly became interested in shogi and wanted to learn it, so he often comes to see me.”

Many women are natural actresses; they can lie without blushing or getting out of breath.

Hearing Kong Yinzi's explanation, the group nodded in agreement without giving it much thought; her personality did indeed make it difficult for her to get along with relatives and friends.

Even if you wanted to overthink it, there was a white feather weighing you down from the rooftop...

Lafite was afraid that these people would end up delivering the goods to Luo Feng one by one.

Each of them has their own obsession: Kuzuryuuya is obsessed with shogi, Kiyotaki Keika is obsessed with shogi, and Kiyotaki Kosuke is obsessed with his 2D waifu.

Lafite was afraid that Kiyotaki Kosuke might not be able to control himself and might make some kind of deal with Luo Feng, only to be kicked into the second dimension by Luo Feng.

"I see." Kiyotaki Keika breathed a sigh of relief: "Why doesn't he go to the dojo to learn?"

"Doesn't that cost money?" Kong Yinzi calmly gave an explanation that left no room for argument.

"What kind of relatives are you?" Kuzuryuu Yaichi asked tentatively.

“The relationship is quite distant,” Kong Yinzi said. “I occasionally go and teach him. He runs his own shop and doesn’t have time to come to me all the time. His shop is being renovated these past few days.”

Sora Ginko never lies, and her expressions aren't that varied, so the others didn't really notice anything amiss.

“Speaking of which, I dreamt of an angel yesterday,” said Kuzuryuu. “She said you had fallen into a devil’s trap and asked me to rescue you.”

Kong Yinzi remained silent.

help me?

Sorry, I don't need you to save me.

Only shogi and myself can save me.

“You’ve reached the age where you should stop dreaming.” Sora Ginko’s gaze fell on Kiyotaki Kosuke: “Master, let me demonstrate my newly developed battle tactic. Help me see if there are any flaws.”

She wasn't trying to show off; she genuinely wanted to ask for advice.

In Luo Feng's words, she simply possessed a computing power far exceeding her former self, rather than becoming a blank slate.

The number of steps she can predict is far beyond what she can achieve.

Using shogi techniques far beyond her understanding to play against an opponent is practically suicidal; she can only choose what she can use.

"Alright, let's see." Seeing that Sora Ginko was also impatient, Kiyotaki Kosuke nodded with satisfaction.

I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but Sora Ginko’s passion for shogi seems to have returned to that of her childhood. She gets restless if she doesn’t play for a while.

Kiyotaki Keika was quite perceptive, and she immediately noticed that something was wrong.

Normally, Sora Ginko would often verbally abuse Yaichi Kuzuryu, and if she got angry, she would punch and kick him. But today, her reaction to Yaichi was too indifferent.

Ginko does like shogi, but Yaichi is also very important to her, so she shouldn't have only said a few words.

She wasn't like this yesterday, what's wrong with her today?

Wait, could it be...?

Kiyotaki Keika suddenly realized something and said to Sora Ginko, "Did you come back here after you left the Kansai Shogi Club yesterday?"

"Senior sister hasn't come back yet," said Kuzuryuu Yaichi. "Later, Ai came, and we were studying shogi, weren't we? If senior sister comes back..."

After being glared at by Kiyotaki Keika, Kuzuryu Yaichi shut his mouth.

"I was just passing by and went to find my brother to discuss shogi," Sora said. "Any other questions?"

"That's all..."

Kiyotaki Keika sensed something was wrong when she heard Sora Ginko's calm tone.

She must have seen that woman hugging Bayi, right?

Yinzi is being stubborn...

Oh well, she'll be fine on her own in a few days, just like during the last celebrity match. I can just talk to her and give her some advice.

P.S.: Three more chapters have been banned...

Chapter 036 Cocktail Party

After Luo Feng and Gabriel parted ways, it was already dusk; the two had been playing games for almost a whole day.

Luo Feng could sense that the woman who had come to make the deal earlier had been waiting in his shop all day, but he wasn't in a hurry to go back.

Since there was no direct contract at the beginning, the price will be different now. Let's whet her appetite first.

Moreover, she doesn't seem to be in despair right now.

How can you negotiate a deal that pleases you if you're not desperate enough?

More than the trading itself, he has always preferred the pleasure that the exchange brings.

Soon, Luo Feng arrived in Qianye.

For him, distance was meaningless; he could be in Osaka in the morning, in Tokyo the next, and in Chiba the moment after that. Distance couldn't limit him at all.

Chiba is arguably the prefecture that embodies all the regrets of Tokyo. From the new Tokyo International Airport, the Tokyo Game Show, and Tokyo German Village, to Kashiwa City, known as "Chiba Shibuya," everything seems to aspire to be like Tokyo. Yet, the people of Chiba also like to preserve the unique flavor of Chiba in unusual places, adding their own variations—that's Chiba.
