But if these magical girls all say that there is nothing unusual at all, then could it be that this so-called gift is really just to trick them and make them scared?

But no matter what he thought in his heart, Ji Hui nodded slightly and said with a smile on the surface.

"Well, okay. Thank you for your hard work. If you hadn't been here, I might have been killed by that evil woman."

His words also made the magical girls look a little embarrassed.

After all, theoretically speaking, they were the ones who wanted to kill Ji Hui as soon as possible, and they could only silently sigh at the wonder of fate.

"Ah, is it already this late?"

One of the magical girls let out a small cry of surprise when she took a look at the clock hanging on the wall, and quickly picked up the shoulder bag on the sofa.

"Sorry, Mr. Ji Hui, we have to go now. We have some other things to do today. We'll come and play with you again when we have the chance."

Originally, they just came here to watch the fun today. Some magical girls who had something else to do had already left early.

Now that they had experienced the attack by the Fallen Evil Girl, a lot of time had passed, much longer than they had expected to stay.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm sorry to bother you this time."

Ji Hui smiled and waved his hand, then seemed to remember something and added a sentence.

"But compared to playing here, it would be better if you could go to the cafe and contribute to our sales. After all, there will probably be a lot of monsters living here in the future, so we should give them some time to adapt."

Chapter 145 Possible unexpected bait

After those magical girls left, the originally bustling mansion became deserted again.

Of course, it looks like this on the surface, but in fact, after this incident, Ji Hui has to deal with much more things than before.

After all, there are now a bunch of new things to do and a bathroom that needs to be renovated.

On the bright side, at least it wasn't my room that was blown up, and I wouldn't be using the bathroom for a while anyway.

Thinking about the extra savings needed to fill the huge gap in the bathroom wall, Ji Hui felt a little heartbroken and had to comfort himself in this way.

“It’s only been one day and there are already so many things going on.”

Next to him, Chizuru Yuzen couldn't help but sigh, causing Ji Hui to spread his hands.

"I can only say it's not bad. It's much better than what we expected, where a few magical girls would mercilessly fire their magic cannons at us and destroy the whole house."

"That's right. If you hadn't accumulated a lot of popularity during your time working at the cafe, I think the situation would have been more likely to develop in this direction."

After thinking about it, Chizuru Hazen could only nod and agree with his statement.

"But unfortunately, I can't be of much help in this regard."

"After all, the knowledge I've learned is basically about how to restrain demons, so even if I wanted to help you set up a few barriers here, it would only have the opposite effect."

"It's okay, you've helped me enough."

Ji Hui shook his head slightly and said with a smile.

"Besides, things like barriers are more vulnerable to exploitation, so let us do it ourselves."

"Well...."

After hearing his words, Chizuru Hazen's expression suddenly became a little strange.

Although Ji Hui's words seemed to be comforting herself, it was hard not to think of his complaints about his barrier that could only protect against gentlemen but not villains, which made her feel a little unwilling in her heart.

"that"

However, just as they were chatting, Rika Funado's little head came down from the ceiling, revealing the cautious expression on her face to the two of them.

"Excuse me, have those magical girls left?"

"Well, they've already left."

Ji Hui nodded and asked with a smile.

"How is it? Have you picked out a room?"

"Well, I chose the house on the south side."

When she heard him say this, Rika Funado's expression suddenly became a little excited.

The facilities in those rooms were much better than she had imagined, especially since Ji Hui said that she had the entire room to herself. It was as if she had returned to her former self, with her own independent room and private space, which made her, a young girl, feel much more excited.

"No need to report so formally."

Seeing that she had specifically informed him of the specific location, Ji Hui smiled and waved his hand.

"But it's better to remember to hang a door number when the time comes. Otherwise, all the rooms will be the same. It would be bad if something happened if you accidentally opened the door."

Chizuru Hazen on the side also spoke subconsciously, and then suddenly reacted, with a slight blush on her cheeks.

"Oh, right, I forgot about the house number."

However, Ji Hui did not notice her abnormality, and just said it with sudden enlightenment.

"Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to get a few more house numbers later. Otherwise, it's really easy for new residents to get lost."

Looking at the somewhat grateful look given by Ji Hui, Yu Ran Chizuru couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

"No, it's okay."

At the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Fortunately, Ji Hui did not delve into this matter too deeply. What subconsciously popped up in her mind just now was actually the scene of Rika Funado who was changing clothes being bumped into by Ji Hui who suddenly opened the door, so she blurted it out subconsciously.

Think about it carefully, she is already a ghost, why does she need to change clothes? Qianzuru, why do you have such a rich imagination?

Chizuru Yuzen was a little annoyed in her heart, but the scene was still sticking in her mind.

What if it happens when you are using the toilet instead of changing clothes?

Although ghosts can't go to the toilet, Ji Hui can. What if Rika Funado happens to come through when he is going to the toilet?

Besides, Ji Hui lives alone now. What if he has any physical needs and is suddenly caught by her through the wall?

Or if they change their positions, what if she catches Ji Hui changing clothes?

Chizuru Hazen was thinking in a confused manner in her mind, and almost ignored the conversation between Ji Hui and Rika Funado.

Although I was thinking too much, after all, we were a single man and a single woman, so it was not impossible for some accidents to happen.

Oh no, it's not like we're alone. There's also Ruth.

Wait, Ruth seems to be in even worse shape. She's even selling her old clothes online. What if she's too open in some inappropriate places? And when she lived in her own shrine, she didn't seem to be dressed particularly modestly.

No, why would I think about these things?

Chizuru Hazen shook her head vigorously, trying to put aside the random thoughts in her mind.

But then she felt someone patting her shoulder, which made her turn around and look at Kana Yuzen who had been standing behind her without her knowing.

"Sister, why don't you move in here too?"

Kana had a smirk on her face, which made Chizuru Yuzen blush. She immediately raised her hand and gently patted her little head.

"Stop it. What about your school? This place is even farther from your school, and the shrine can't be left unattended."

"cut"

Kana Yuzen immediately pouted in dissatisfaction and muttered softly.

"Sister, your soul is almost staying here——"

The sudden slap on her head made her utter a small cry of pain.

"What nonsense is this kid talking about?"

Chizuru Hazen lowered her voice and scolded the pouting Kana Hazen, while looking at Ji Hui and Funado Rika in panic. She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she found that they didn't notice the movement here.

My sister is so mean, she only knows how to take her anger out on me

Kana Yuzen curled her lips, but this time, she didn't say it out loud, she just complained in her heart.

After all, my sister's beating still hurts.

On the other side, Ji Hui, who seemed to have finished talking, stood up from the sofa and spoke with his hands on his hips.

"Okay. Now that they've mostly left, let's get started on the cleaning. We'll try to have the house thoroughly cleaned before tonight."

After saying that, he also raised his head and shouted towards the second floor.

"Ruth, stop playing dead. Those magical girls are gone. Come down and get to work."

And it was only after a few seconds that Ruth's reluctant response came from the stairs.

"I know, I know. Really, can't you take care of the elderly a little bit?"

Chapter 146 The Taste of the Soul

"cheers."

As several cups collided with each other, the crisp sound echoed in the lobby.

The people sitting around the coffee table drank the sweet drinks and then began to reach out their chopsticks for the delicious dishes on the coffee table that were emitting tempting aromas.

As a celebration of the first day of moving, Ji Hui was generous this time and made the meal seem extremely sumptuous, which made them very happy after being busy all day.

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of four people and a child, the entire house inside and out has been cleaned, except for the wreckage caused by the explosion that had to wait for the arrival of the construction team, making it look even more beautiful than before.

However, as it was already dark, Ji Hui persuaded the Yu Ran sisters, who had originally planned to go home after helping, to stay and have a good meal as a thank you, and to stay overnight.

Anyway, he had already prepared several sets of brand new sheets and quilts in advance for the new tenants who might arrive, so they could be used at any time, saving Chizuru Yuzen and the others from having to go back to get quilts.

"But speaking of which, Rika, where did all the food you ate go?"

Looking at Rika Funado who was floating in the air and chewing a chicken leg happily, Ji Hui asked curiously.

"Well, I'm not sure. I'm just eating according to my previous habits."

After hearing his question, Funado Rika thought about it and said with some distress.

"But honestly, I don't think it's something like digestion, because when I'm hungry, I don't have a stomachache, but something else."

As if she didn't know how to describe it correctly, Rika Funado thought for a while before continuing.

"It's like my whole body is sending some kind of instinctive signal, telling me that I need to eat."

"Because sometimes it's not always so perfect, I've even gone several weeks without eating. At that time, I felt weak all over, and my body was a little flickering. It was difficult to solidify it."

"So I feel that if I continue on a hunger strike, I'm afraid I won't be able to condense my body anymore and will dissipate like real air."

Funado Rika's words made everyone nod thoughtfully.

"Oh, right. In that state, I seemed to sense that other people also had a sweet smell. I'm not sure what it was, but maybe it was something like a soul?"

Then she seemed to have thought of something and continued to speak.

"Anyway, that thing is very attractive to me. If I wasn't particularly afraid of the Four Magical Girls, I might really get close to it and try to inhale that smell."

"Well, ghosts suck souls, that's true. It seems to make more sense."

After taking a few mouthfuls of rice, Ji Hui also spoke with interest.

"Do you feel the same way about us now?"

On the other side, Chizuru Hazen, who picked up a piece of fried chicken for Kana Hazen, couldn't help but ask curiously, making Rika Funadotari nod slightly.

"Yes, there is indeed, and I feel that the smell on you, Ji Hui, is even stronger than that on Qianhe."

"But maybe it's because I have food to sustain me. Even though it tastes good, I can still control myself. It's like seeing delicious food from a window far away. I know it's delicious, but I'm not to the point of breaking the window and eating it directly."

"Oh, then you look a bit like me."

And after her explanation, Ruth nodded, drawing their attention.

"For us vampires, the fragrance you're talking about is probably the smell of blood."

"Yeah, and indeed, compared to Qianzuru's blood, Jihui's blood tastes better at night."

"I actually taste better?"

Hearing the two demons say this, Ji Hui blinked in surprise.

"Isn't it said that vampires generally prefer girls' blood? Especially virgins."

He subconsciously glanced at Chizuru Hazen, who immediately glared at him and said angrily.

"Don't look at me with such suspicion, I'm still clean!"

"Ahem, that's not the problem."
