"Woo... What's wrong with having some beautiful expectations in life..." Matsuko muttered, covering her head with a look of grievance.

Ai covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "I'm really not a fox fairy~ I don't have the ability to fulfill wishes. Of course, if I had this ability, I would find a way to make it come true for Matsuko."

"Woo woo woo! Ai Yi, you really are an angel!" Then, she turned her head and made a face at Mei Hui: "Mei Hui, you are a devil! Satan should have a tattoo of you on his body!"

"Hey~"

As everyone was laughing and joking, Ai saw a familiar figure walking towards her. She turned around and greeted, "Ms. Shinagawa!"

"Eh? Ms. Shinagawa?"

The girls in the club turned their heads and saw Shinagawa Rei smiling and waving to Ai. For a moment, the girls fell silent and looked at Shinagawa Rei with admiration.

"Ahhh~ It seems that Ai does have a close relationship with Shinagawa-senpai~" Chizuru tilted her head and sighed.

"Sorry, everyone. I want to go with Miss Shinagawa. Bye~" Ai lowered her head a little embarrassedly, said goodbye to everyone, and walked with Shinagawa.

"Wow... I'm so envious... But since she's Shinagawa-senpai's friend, it's no surprise that she has such amazing physical fitness... You know, Shinagawa-senpai is the record holder for all kinds of sports achievements in our school..."

"Birds of a feather flock together."

"Indeed, they both have good personalities. Shinagawa-san is polite and gentle, and Ai's personality is as soft as her breasts..."

"Hmm? I seem to have heard something incredible... How do you know that Ai's breasts are so soft?"

"Ha, that's not that difficult. You'll know when you touch one another during physical education class."

"As expected, Matsuko, you are a perverted female pervert! I will punish you!"

……

Shinagawa Rei and Ai were walking on the way home from school. As an elder, Shinagawa asked with concern: "Ai, are you used to the new school?"

"Woo! Very good, I like it very much, and I made several new friends today."

"The ones you went to school with?"

"Ok!"

Shinagawa smiled knowingly and said, "That's great. If I had known, I wouldn't have disturbed Ai from socializing with her new friends. I should have let you play with them for a while longer."

"No, Sister Shinagawa is also a very important friend to me! By the way, I heard from my classmates that Sister Shinagawa is in the Archery Club, right? I also want to join the Archery Club. After all, although we are in the same school, we only see each other very rarely. It's really a pity..."

Ai said, holding Shinagawa's hand. Shinagawa was a little surprised by her response and action. After a brief panic, he smiled happily and said, "Of course, if it's Ai."

"By the way, Sister Shinagawa, you always went home alone after school. You probably didn't go shopping with your classmates, did you?"

"This... is indeed not the case..."

"Hehe, I don't have any either~ So... Shinagawa-san, why don't we go shopping~"

Chapter 68: Zhenyijun, a real man!

"Ha! Huh! Ha! Huh! Ha! Huh..."

On the steps of Yoshino Shrine, Shinichi was carrying a whole basket of sake on his back and holding some bottles in his hands, climbing up step by step with difficulty but determination.

It is no exaggeration to say that the weight of the wine and drinks that Shinichi carries on his back is no less than his own weight. However, even with such a burden on his back, Shinichi's thin body bursts out with unimaginable endurance, and he steps on the floor firmly but arduously.

Step by step, Shinichi finally climbed up the steps of the shrine. The shrine stood in front of him, but he was obviously not in the mood to observe it. He lowered his head and continued to breathe heavily as he walked around the shrine and came to the shrine's residence at the back.

"Oh? Not bad, you can actually pull it all back by yourself~" Shinagawa Ryoko sat lazily against the gate, looking at Shinichi who was covered in sweat as if he had encountered a downpour. There was a hint of teasing on her face, but the surprise in her eyes was no less.

I didn't expect that this kid would master the breathing technique so quickly, and it's only been half a day, and he can put it into practice so quickly.

Ryoko watched Shinichi's regular breathing, a wisp of white air lingering at the corners of his mouth for a long time. In half a day, he not only mastered the breathing method, but also used it very well. Many people may not even have a sense of qi at this time, but this kid can actually keep his breath for a long time.

Ali wasn't exaggerating. This kid is indeed a genius in ghost fighting... And if Ali is right, this kid can also transform. He looks like the sound warrior that his master told him about...

Could it be that this kid is the descendant of some lost sect of sonic warriors?

If that's the case... Hey~ It seems like I've gotten a bargain, allowing the descendants of the original sound attack warriors of other factions to be gradually cultivated into the shape of my Red Devil School~ As expected, the truth of this world is still longer than life, and the good thing about our Red Devil School is that it has a long life and can outlast other factions~

Thinking of this, Shinagawa Ryoko showed a rather disdainful smile, then propped herself up and walked towards Shinichi, who was lying on the ground resting after putting down his drinks.

Even when he was resting, Shinichi did not forget to maintain his breathing frequency. Although this breathing method did not give him any special feeling at the beginning, as he went up and down the mountain to carry wine bottles time and time again, he discovered that this breathing method had a subtle effect on his body.

The biggest improvement is endurance. Although you still feel tired, when you use the breathing method to work, especially when you do heavy physical work, you will always have a feeling that you are extremely tired but have not reached your limit.

It’s as if the point just away from your limit is being hung up in one breath, making it impossible for you to reach it.

This breathing method is truly magical, as it allows you to always maintain a state of extreme stress without collapsing. Of course, this process is indeed extremely uncomfortable. After all, few people are cruel enough to push themselves to the limit all the time.

And this is just a coincidence. Zhenyi is a person who can withstand extreme pressure. While carrying the wine bottles along the way, not a muscle in Zhenyi's body was not shaking, and he looked thinner.

Ryoko squatted beside Shinichi, poked the limp Shinichi, and said with a smile: "Not bad, you can finish it all in one day, and you have completely mastered the breathing method. It seems that you have reached your limit. You have done a good job. Let's start the next stage tomorrow.

You should stay at the shrine tonight and rest. It is unrealistic for you to crawl back like this. I will not ask you to cook for you. Since you are very talented, I am eager to see your talent. Tonight I will cook for you and show you the traditional method of making edible medicine handed down from our ancestors at Yoshino Shrine~"

……

"Hello? Master, what's going on? Buying meat? Oh...oh, okay."

Seeing that Shinagawa Rei hung up the phone, Ai Yi asked curiously, "The person who called just now was your master, Sister Shinagawa? Is there something wrong?"

"Ah, Master told me to buy some meat when I return."

"Buying meat? Are you going to make something delicious?"

"Um..." Shinagawa paused for a moment. As an apprentice, she knew very well what her master's cooking skills were like, and it had absolutely nothing to do with the word "delicious".

However, there is probably only one person who can make the master offer to buy meat... The master wants to make her so-called secret ancient medicine... As for who to give it to, if I am not mistaken, it is most likely Zhenyijun.

This guess surprised Shinagawa himself, because although the taste of the food medicine made by the master is hard to describe, the effect is absolutely impeccable. He has been eating it all the way. However, although the effect of the food medicine is strong, it cannot be taken casually.

If you want to take food medicine, you must first master the breathing method. As the foundation of Guiwu, all of Guiwu's practice starts with the breathing method, which is so strict that it requires that you must practice it without stopping even when eating and breathing.

If Shinichi-kun can take medicine and eat it, doesn't that mean he has successfully learned the breathing method in one day? So fast? !

With surprise and confusion, Shinagawa took a rare leave from the coffee shop, bought some ingredients and went directly to Yoshino Shrine with Ai. Of course, Ai asked to follow him on her own initiative.

And when she reached back and saw Shinichi lying on the floor, thinner and still breathing regularly, she was sure that Takahashi Shinichi had really mastered the breathing method in just one day!

"Brother! Are you okay?!" Ai saw that Shinichi had lost weight, so she walked up to him with a worried look on her face and helped him up.

Shinichi said in a low voice with a tired look on his face: "Ah...it's okay...ha...huh...just a little tired..."

Shinagawa also explained: "Don't worry, Ai-chan, Shinichi-kun is just temporarily exhausted and dehydrated after pushing his body to the limit for a long time. He will feel much better after taking medicine later."

"Food and medicine?" Ai Yi muttered in confusion.

"Um...just..."

Just as Shinagawa was about to continue explaining, a scream suddenly came from the kitchen: "Ahhh! The ingredients are hitting people!"

Then there was a chaotic symphony of pots and pans, which made Shinagawa look very upset. He said helplessly: "Uh... this is what my master is tinkering with now..."

"Forehead……"

Ai Yi looked at the kitchen, which was constantly flashing with flames as if it was experiencing a hail of bullets, and all kinds of noises. She couldn't help but wonder... Was this really cooking?

A quarter of an hour later, Ryoko wiped the ash off her face, and came to the stone table with a pot of strangely colored sticky stew. She put it on the table and said, "Takahashi Shinichi, come here, have something to replenish your energy!"

At Ryoko's invitation, a group of people came forward and gathered around to look at the food and medicine on the stone table. Shinagawa was mentally prepared, but when he saw the stew in the pot that seemed more abstract than what he had eaten before, he couldn't help but gasp.

Ai Yi took a look and the ingredients in the pot seemed to be forced into quantum entanglement. After their essence was destroyed, they condensed together. This process seemed to be unbearably painful, so that the whole pot of food showed a gray color as if it had lost its soul and body, and this color did not look like the color of food at all!

So, Ai Yi couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question: "Is this gray and sticky thing cement?"

"…What cement! This is the medicinal stew I made!"

“…Why is the stew grey?!”

Ryoko waved her hands guiltily and said, "It's not worth fussing about these minor details. Food is edible. It won't kill you anyway. Ask Ali. She also ate this stuff and got through it. She never said she couldn't stand it."

Ai obviously couldn't accept this answer and planned to continue arguing, but Shinichi sat down silently, picked up a spoon, scooped a spoonful of paste directly from the pot and put it into his mouth.

"Ah! Brother! Why did you really eat it?"

Ai was shocked, Ryoko was a little surprised, and Shinagawa Rei's eyes widened. He ate it! He actually ate it! ?

"Wow...it's a bit sticky and salty...and a little bitter...it's probably a little mushy, but it's still eatable..." Shinichi reached out and wiped the grayish-white paste from the corner of his mouth, sucked it back into his mouth, made a comment without changing his expression, and then stuffed another spoonful into his mouth.

“…Ha~ I told you~ my cooking skills aren’t that bad~” Ryoko was delighted to see that she actually received an unexpectedly good evaluation.

Shinagawa Rei and Ai looked upset and asked, "Do you have any misunderstanding about cooking? It's salty and mushy, barely edible. Isn't that bad enough?"

But Ryoko obviously had her own criteria. She happily took out a bottle of wine and filled Shinichi's glass. She said with a smile, "Come on, Shinichi, this stuff is easier to absorb with wine! Let's clink glasses!"

"...I don't drink much..."

"Oh~ It's just sake, it only has a little taste. Even a novice can easily drink two or three bottles. Come on! These two little girls are spoiled and don't understand our craftsmanship. It's better for us adults to talk to them!"

As she spoke, Ryoko brought the bottle of wine to Shinichi's mouth, and Shinichi could not refuse the kindness, so he took the glass of sake and drank it. The alcohol content was indeed not high, and the taste was not strong. A sip of it could also get rid of the strange taste of food medicine in his mouth.

So after drinking one glass, Shinichi raised the glass back, indicating that he wanted another one. This made Ryoko happy immediately, she laughed, filled his glass, and opened another bottle for herself.

Ryoko admitted that she now likes Takahashi Shinichi a little bit. Although he has a bit of an aggressive mouth, he is surprisingly easy to talk to. And just for his straightforwardness, she wants to have him as her apprentice!

Seeing this, Shinakawa Rei couldn't help but admire Shinichi even more. She knew exactly what the medicine made by her master tasted like, and yet Shinichi could eat it without changing his expression...

Shinichi-kun, you are a real man!

Chapter 69 This is Kamen Rider

"Shinichi-kun, you have to stay in my room tonight. Uh... it might be a little small with Ai-chan in it..." Shinagawa held two quilts and handed them to Shinichi and Ai.

Shinichi just nodded silently. He really didn't want to say anything now. He was really too tired. The weakness in his limbs and the tingling sensation after taking the medicine made him drowsy. He was too lazy to say a word.

Therefore, almost all communication matters were handled by Ai Yi.

"It's not small, it's very spacious for us." Ai waved her hand and smiled. Compared with the small apartment where Ai and Shinichi lived before, Shinagawa Rei's bedroom in the shrine is already very large.

After thanking Shinagawa, Ai spread out the tatami for Shinichi, and Shinichi rubbed his sore and swollen limbs, endured the muscle pain, and slowly lay down on the tatami.

The moment he lay down, the stiffness and pain in his muscles made him groan. He might not have felt so tired in his entire two lifetimes...

However, although his muscles were sore, swollen, weak and powerless, the feeling of fullness and recovery after taking the medicine made him feel more comfortable and made him understand the meaning of pain and pleasure.

"Brother? Do you want some fruit? I went shopping with Shinagawa-san and bought some."

"Hmm...eat."

"Okay~" Ai Yi smiled and took out an apple and started to peel it. She said while peeling it clumsily, "Fruit... A few weeks ago, we had to buy the kind of cut fruit. There were only a few pieces in a box, and we had to share it...

But I usually eat more, and every time you eat a little, you always say that you need to take more vitamins, and then you give me the rest..."

At this point, Ai Yi grinned and said, "But now everything is different. I can buy fruits in bulk, eat whatever I want, and play with whatever I want. How should I put it... It feels a bit dreamy..."

Listening to Ai's sigh, Shinichi chuckled and said, "Isn't this how life is supposed to be, Ai? Those hard days in the past are over. There's no need to bring them up all the time. Don't let the shadow of the past affect your enjoyment of the present."

Ai Yi nodded obediently after hearing this, but she was still a little curious: "Although what my brother said is right... I am still very curious... What was your life like before?"

"My previous life? You mean before I traveled through time?"

"Yeah!" Having said that, Ai Yi nodded curiously.

Shinichi bared his teeth and put his hands behind his back, sighing, "Just like you now, you can buy whole fruits and eat them, eat whatever you want, and play whatever you want."

"Hey... then brother used to live a good life."

"It's OK. At least I can be self-reliant. But that's all."

Ai tilted her head in confusion and said, "Is that all? I think being able to be self-reliant to this extent is already very comfortable and successful."

"Alas, Ai, if you said this to me, I'm afraid you would be criticized by a lot of people for having no ambition and living a life of mediocrity."

Shinichi's words made Ai stunned for a moment, and she was even more confused, but she couldn't ask the reason clearly, so she could only nod with a puzzled look.

"If you don't have ambition, then don't have ambition... Anyway, I think it's enough to live a good life with my brother. By the way, brother, it's just like you said. After changing the environment, I feel different immediately. I even made some new friends today..."

Ai Yi enthusiastically shared with Zhenyi every detail of her day at school. There were so many interesting things with her friends that she wanted to share with her brother, and Zhenyi also took Ai Yi's sharing as a bedtime story. The two of them covered themselves with a quilt, hugged each other and prepared to rest.

Just as Shinichi was gradually falling asleep due to Ai's narration and closed his eyes, half asleep and half awake, a crisp "Ding!" suddenly rang in his mind, pulling him out of his confused consciousness!

I had already felt this feeling of being forcibly awakened yesterday, and it happened again today!

With great displeasure, he immersed his consciousness into the system and looked at the progress bar on the system interface that was already filled to 100%. Ha, without the ding sound, he would have forgotten that there was still a shameful system being updated.

Looking at the words "Please press any key to continue" that flickered slightly below the progress bar, Shinichi's mouth twitched slightly. System, you still say you're not copying the game?!

After clicking on the progress bar, the interface turned black, and then the updated system interface unfolded in front of Zhenyi again. Overall, the interface design was similar to before, except for the addition of a page turn.

The extra page of content is naturally what the system calls the world function.
