Comet Dragon, breaking into the gravity field

Suddenly, I heard the words of Ritsu Narose.

"Although Deng looks a little weak, she's actually quite strong on the outside. Li Xi gives people a fierce feeling, but sometimes she can show a soft and depressed expression like now."

Looking up, Shiina Riki rolled her eyes at him.

Although I know that Ritsu Narose said this to cheer myself up, I still don't use this method.

After some hesitation, she decided to speak out the question that had been bothering her for days, hoping to get an answer from Ritsu Naruse.

Even though the answer may not be what you like, the answer itself can represent other people's expectations of you.

In other words, Shiina Riki is eager to know what kind of image his neighbor, Meng Lingba "Ling", has in Narose Ritsu's heart.

Hearing the topic he had used in the chat flow tactics before, Narose Ritsu touched his chin, suddenly put his hands together and said, "Ritsuki, are you interested in joining the other world exploration team?"

"Huh?" Shiina Riki looked confused, apparently unable to keep up with Naruse Ritsu's rapid-fire thinking. "What is this?"

"In the future, biologist Deng Takamatsu will need a trustworthy bodyguard to accompany her on wild adventures. Is Li Xi interested in applying?" Opening the team composition she had written down a few days ago, Ritsu Naruse raised an eyebrow at her, and then reported the employee benefits she had written down.

"Salary is negotiable, benefits are excellent, and there's huge room for advancement if you join during the early stages of the company's development. There are plenty of opportunities for business trips, regular team-building activities, and food and lodging are all included during the work period..."

"As for bodyguards and such, isn't it enough to have you here?" Unable to bear his nagging, Shiina Riki interrupted him before Naruse Ritsu could finish.

"Having one more person doesn't seem to be of any use other than being a drag, right?" She said calmly, her hands folded across her chest, as if it were none of her business.

Putting down the notebook, Ritsu Narose blinked and looked at Riki Shiina.

Until the girl sitting next to him began to respond to him with a wary look, he put his hand on his chin and said slowly in a thoughtful manner: "Li Xi... You are actually very inferior, right?"

"?"

Instead of being irritated by these heart-piercing words, Shiina Riki just frowned, not understanding why Naruse Ritsu suddenly said that.

"Li Xi just thanked me. He probably also hopes that I can be happy, right?"

"Not bad, about the same..." Feeling a little embarrassed, she still gave an honest answer.

"I've heard other humans say that if you like someone, you want to make him happy, and to like someone you need to like yourself first." Ritsu Narose said as he stretched out his tail to drive away a few cats that couldn't read the atmosphere and wanted to come closer.

"However, people with low self-esteem always believe that they are destined to be unhappy together. Therefore, they will keep their distance from the other person because they unilaterally believe that they are not worthy of the other person. In the end, the two people will completely pass each other by in the world."

"After hearing my proposal, Li Xi's first reaction was not to ask further questions but to find an excuse to avoid it..."

He didn't finish the rest of his words, but the look in Narose Ritsu's eyes made it clear what he wanted to say.

"You can see this, could it be your intuition playing tricks on you?"

"Actually, it's a 50-50 split between rational analysis and intuition, but Li Xi's reaction indirectly confirms what I said."

"So cunning... Lu Cage (Part 2) 2 Coral Hiss, Shrimp Hiss..."

Changing his posture, Shiina Riki placed his hands on the bench, looked up at the mottled leaves, and murmured about the strangeness of his neighbor's device.

——"But the proposal I mentioned earlier is indeed serious."

Suddenly speaking, Naruse Ritsu said with a serious face, "If you know me, you should know that I will not act recklessly without any preparation."

Facing Shiina Riki's surprised gaze, Naruse Ritsu handed her his cell phone.

A set of pictures appeared on the phone screen.

If a knowledgeable dragon craftsman from another world saw these pictures, he would probably jump up in excitement and marvel at these hunter equipment that only existed in dreams.

86. Yutenji Wakamugi remained motionless

Standing under the sun visor of the snack shop, a familiar chill gradually crept up Yutenji Wakamu's spine.

She handed the two popsicles she bought to her younger brother and sister, and put on her sunglasses again so that they wouldn't notice anything was wrong with her.

The night after Yutenji Wakamu finished her first stage play practice, she had a dream.

She could no longer remember the specific scenes of the dream, but the suffocating feeling as if she had fallen into the deep sea had never faded from her memory.

At first, she thought it was the combination of physical and mental exhaustion that caused her to suffer from nightmares.

After all, appearing on stage fully armed, rehearsing lines and fighting at the same time, was no easy feat. Not to mention the music she was responsible for as a drummer was simply pushing the limits of the human body, seemingly draining her energy to its absolute limit.

For a better future, Yutenji Wakamugi thought he could persevere.

However, as the number of rehearsals for the stage play steadily increased, so did the number of times she found herself trapped in bizarre dreams.

The content of the dream was forgotten by her, but the "instinct" remaining in her limbs seemed to remain.

The chilling feeling wrapped around her, allowing her to perform the move naturally without having to think about what to do next. Although she had never encountered it before, she was sure that it was an ancient and extremely valuable technique.

too weird.

However, when she thought about the other guitarist in the band who seemed to be crazy, and that her immediate boss was not a human being at all... her inner entanglement was somewhat relieved.

Although she didn't know exactly what was going on, she had every reason to suspect that all the abnormalities happening to her were caused by her vampire boss.

——She wears a black and red suit that looks like something out of Castlevania all day long. If you don’t know her, you might think she’s also a member of Ave Mujica.

When he thought of that tough guy, Yutenji Wakami felt his scalp tingling.

He would dig into other people's backgrounds recklessly, then inadvertently reveal his knowledge of "Yutenji Wakamu" during a conversation, always maintaining a rapid and high-pressure rhythm, not giving the other party a moment to breathe...

The outer shell used to protect and disguise myself was torn to pieces, even the thoughts in my heart were exposed on the spot, and the words I usually used to motivate myself were placed under the pale light, as if I had become a corpse waiting to be dissected...

If you want to go against such a high-level player, you must first have a mentality that is good at withstanding pressure.

Because she uses plain truth as the sword, piercing the hearts of the parties with undeniable facts, and then uses gorgeous words to describe the specific content.

In this process, the person's innate vanity often becomes a nut that is cracked open, making things extremely embarrassing.

Before the incident happened, Yutenji Wakamugi thought that he was becoming a spring that could withstand pressure by going to Tokyo alone to work hard.

However, as Belmont pointed out her childish pursuit of fame and fortune while unwilling to give up certain things she insisted on, she realized that she could not defeat him with words.

Therefore, every time she went to the office, she would deliberately avoid him. Even if she had to meet him, she would try her best to avoid looking at him, to avoid seeing those inhuman crimson pupils.

The scorching sun covered the surface of the island. Even though the air had become hot at this moment, that vague chill still lingered, following her like a shadow under her feet.

After briefly recalling the scene of his conversation with Belmont, Yutenji Wakami closed his eyes.

She returned to her hometown from Tokyo, on the one hand because she wanted to escape the turmoil within the band, and on the other hand because of the deep anxiety in her heart.

After more than ten seconds, when her slightly trembling body gradually stabilized, she opened her eyes and looked at the cat following a pedestrian on the side of the road.

He couldn't help but exclaim in amazement at what kind of monster he had encountered. At this moment, Yutenji Wakamugi thought of the kindness of Narose Ritsu again.

Although neither Ritsu Naruse nor Belmont had ever admitted it to her, Yutenji Wakami was convinced that they were both essentially the same kind of monsters.

But even though they are all monsters that mimic humans, Ritsu Naruse appears particularly harmless in comparison.

Even though his words were sometimes irritating, even though he was suspected of cheating on his girlfriend, even though he had already completed the feat of three jumps, even though he still acted like a teacher and pointed fingers at himself...

But these problems are tolerable!

Sighing again, Yutenji Wakamu turned his head and suddenly found that the two little ones who were standing beside him licking popsicles just now were nowhere to be seen.

Taking off her sunglasses and looking around, she soon saw her brother and sister standing by a shelf.

In front of them, the girl who had appeared beside Ritsu Naruse before stood alone.

Unlike the two little ones who were passionately telling something, the girl frowned slightly, looking very serious.

As I got a little closer, I could hear the noticeable sound of the soles of my shoes on the ground.

Hearing the elder sister's footsteps behind them, the two who were talking incessantly turned around at the same time.

"You haven't caused any trouble to others, have you?" Putting away his sunglasses, Yutenji Wakami deliberately put on a serious attitude.

However, the two people standing in front of her were not intimidated. Instead, they happily explained to her the content of their conversation.

——"This sister is thinking about what gift to give to the previous brother."

——"We just happened to hear it."

——"Because the brother gave us gifts before."

——"So we came to help her with some advice."

The two kids spoke one by one and soon explained the situation clearly.

Looking up at Takamatsu Touma standing beside him, Yutenji Wakami's expression changed slightly.

What on earth did Ritsu Naruse do? Did he resort to PUA tactics on a girl who had the word "weak" written all over her forehead?

Otherwise, why would she be so affectionate towards that guy Ritsu Naruse, and even want to give a gift to a guy who is cheating on three people at the same time?

Having never been in a relationship and not knowing what happened between her and Ritsu Narose, Yutenji Wakamugi can only guess what is going on in Takamatsu's train of thought based on what he knows.

"Sorry, I seem to have... wasted your time..." Mistaking Yutenji Wakami's gaze for an accusation against him, Takamatsu Deng lowered his head and apologized with a little uneasiness.

"Eh?"

Blinking in confusion, Yutenji Wakami was about to say something, but he felt the confused and dissatisfied gazes of his younger brother and sister focused on him.

As expected, there is no normal person who can get together with Ritsu Narose.

Silently recording this great discovery in his heart, Yutenji Wakamu had to patiently explain that he had no intention of blaming the other party.

As she spoke, she suddenly noticed a change in the light and shadow in the store.

Turning around, Yutenji Wakami saw Ritsu Narose, who had said goodbye to her an hour ago, appear in front of the store with another girl.

87. I don’t have no money, I just don’t like to spend money

For everyone, there is always such a person in the world:

In the eyes of others, he is an absolutely excellent human being. Everyone who knows him praises him highly. However, he himself is not interested in it and can even be said to reject it.

After today's day trip, Yutenji Wakamaki returned home and lay down on the bed directly.

He stared at the gray-white ceiling intently, and the scene of his younger brothers and sisters laughing with someone as if their whole family was projected onto it.

Why is that guy so popular with kids?

Although they told him the whole story of their acquaintance with Ritsu Narose, Yutenji Wakami didn't think that sensible kids like them would be bribed by a mere free capsule toy.

Seeing her children forget about her when they made new friends, she couldn't help but sigh with a subtle melancholy.

"Forget it, cut the video first.

Picking up the phone beside his pillow, Yutenji Wakamuki opened the editing software with ease and began to process the video recorded today.

"Is the six-year-old emu stuck again, Shan (four?) Ba (four)?"

Seeing that the editing software was stuck on the interface of opening local videos as before, she frowned and then let go reluctantly.

There was no choice but to obey.

Should I get a new phone? Or a computer specifically for video editing?

After calculating his savings and checking the prices of mobile phones and computers on the trading software, Yutenji Wakamu put down his phone with a painful look on his face.

So expensive!

Although her monthly salary from band activities was enough to support her in replacing her equipment, she still felt a chill when she saw the number.

Or maybe look at second-hand ones?

She was thinking about opening the second-hand trading app on her phone, but just before her fingertips were about to touch the screen, she suddenly stopped.

Spending money when you are in a bad mood can certainly change your mood, but the cost is really unacceptable to her.

"It's not that I don't have money, I just don't like to spend money."

Muttering to herself, she shifted her fingertips slightly and opened another document app.

Looking at the paper she named "first draft", Yutenji Wakamu was silent for a long time, and finally shared it with a guy who had never said a word since she added him to her contact list.

Since I'm in a bad mood now, I might as well take this opportunity to solve a bunch of troubles.

Fully carrying forward the spirit of "Yutenji's family affairs", Yutenji Wakamu stared at the message bar on the screen that had changed to read, waiting for Naruse Ritsu's reply...

……

ten minutes later……

"Why is your line spacing so messed up? Didn't you synchronize the formatting when you copied and pasted? Really? Even the ba-style fonts of the characters 伊~琳厁爾铃" aren't consistent..."

"And there's something wrong with the citation format for the references. Did you type them in word by word? Didn't I tell you that the document has a cross-reference function?"
