I will never give in to Miss Death

Elodie yawned again: "Ah... Then I won't ask you any more questions. The rent and other things are still the same. You can divide them among yourselves."

I nodded quickly: "Yeah."

That being said, the rent seems to be shared by Xiaomo and I now. Both Filo and Gabriel are from another world, so let alone money, Filo doesn't even have a cell phone.

"Okay, Sister Gabriel."

Seeing Elodie go to the living room, I quickly waved to a certain angel in the room: "Stop playing, come out to eat."

Isn't this a rapid fall?!

Gabriel's appearance made me recall the scene of her coming from another world in the morning.

How could an archangel who was so sacred, so serious, and so "self-reliant" become like this after just playing games for a while?

Or... just like Xiaomo said, Gabriel had just been suppressed for too long?

After all, I had seen similar situations when I was in college before - there was a student next to my dormitory who ranked first in the county in high school. The place where he lived was very poor and the teaching conditions were very difficult. Few people could be admitted to a regular undergraduate university. He was the only one who passed the exam through hard work, and he seemed to be the best student in my class.

But such a "good student" became the most "degenerate" in the whole grade after entering university. He would skip elective courses and compulsory courses, failed many subjects, slept until noon every day, and played games in the dormitory when he woke up.

At that time, I talked to him for a while. He said that life in junior high and high school was so hard, and he had never been exposed to mobile phones and computers since he was a child. When he went to college and bought a computer, it was like opening up a new world. His mind was full of thoughts of revenge. He felt that since he had suffered so much in the past, he should have a good time now. Before he knew it, it happened.

I suspect Gabriel feels the same way.

"it is good."

At my signal, Gabriel looked at the words "Platinum III Ranking" in the lower left corner of the game interface of "APEX Battle Royale" with some reluctance, and stood up and walked towards me: "I opened the thing called browser according to Momo's memory and checked it. It said that the matches in the game are all humans. The higher the ranking level, the higher the skills of those people in the back. Is this true?"

I nodded. "Yes, you have reached Platinum now. Most people can reach this level if they work hard. The next level is Diamond, which requires a certain amount of talent and hard work. Above Diamond is Master, which is the watershed for high-end players. As for Hunter... that belongs to the top players."

"I'm going to work in that coffee shop you and Momo talked about..."

Gabriel looked like he only knew a little bit: "Are you playing that game too?"

"There might be that game, and there will certainly be other games."

I thought about it and said, "There are very few mainstream competitive games now, but work doesn't just involve playing competitive games, there are also stand-alone games. And what's important in this job is not the game, but the interaction and entertainment between the anchor and the audience."

"I... don't quite understand."

"It's okay, I can learn slowly."

I smiled and said, "I believe in Sister Gabriel's ability to learn."

"Look at you, you have dark circles under your eyes."

Arriving in the living room, Lan Jiajia grabbed Elodie who had just woken up and said, "How many times have I told you not to think about that game? Your life is more important."

"Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say. The game will be released soon, and I'll take a good rest these few days."

Elodie glanced into the kitchen and asked, "Is there anything else I can help you with?"

"No, now we just have to wait for Philo to come back."

Lan Jiajia dragged Elodie to the sink and said, "Wash your hands well. Here, I bought some new hand sanitizer. You eat spicy noodles every day. You have a bad stomach. You should pay more attention to food hygiene."

"I know. Why are you like my mom? Where is my cute little yellow husky who used to help me log in every day?"

"Besides, I have reported to your mother that her precious daughter not only does not eat on time every day, but also does not wash her hands properly after eating."

"Yes, yes, wash your hands... Is this okay?"

While the two of them were having fun, I brought Gabriel to the dining table in the living room. Yin Xiamo had already helped set the table and served me the rice.

"Do people here usually eat like this?"

Gabriel sat down and was still looking around curiously. The huge living room was decorated with various flower stands and pots, making it particularly warm because Xiaomo tidied it up every day.

“But I really appreciate the art of dressing up here.”

Gabriel looked at the TV for a long time: "There are a lot of things I haven't seen before."

"People over there are mostly homeless people, so how can we have the time to decorate our houses?"

Yin Xiamo said helplessly: "Generally, those who can spend a lot of time decorating the house are long-lived people, elves and angels, etc., don't you think so, Miss Gabriel?"

“Do we need to pray before eating here?”

Gabriel didn't know how to respond to Yin Xiamo's words: "Or... pray for blessings?"

"unnecessary."

I picked up the chopsticks: "There aren't so many rules here, just pick up what you like."

"folder?"

"Oh yes, I almost forgot."

Yin Xiamo stood up, ran to the kitchen, got a fork, and handed it to Gabriel: "Here, if you don't know how to use chopsticks yet, you can use this first."

"What material is this made of? It's so beautiful, just like the tableware in the coffee shop today!"

After looking at the fork Xiaomo brought over, Gabriel picked up two chopsticks and crossed them to form a cross: "Vampire, watch out!"

“Just eat well!”

Yin Xiamo immediately tapped the little angel on the head with her chopsticks: "Filo will come back to deal with you later."

"Woo..."

"Everyone, it's time to eat."

While we were playing, Lan Jiajia came back with Elodie, who had washed her hands, and the two of them sat opposite us.

"You have already introduced them, right? Xiao Ai, this is Gabriel. Noel has once again used her miracles to find an angel lady who fits the description of our general manager."

"Gabriel-sister, don't be so restrained. Just pick up whatever you want to eat... Can't you use chopsticks?"

"It's okay, she can just use this."

Yin Xiamo took the bowl in front of me without hesitation, turned the roller on the table, turned the soup in front of her, and then helped me pour a full bowl of chicken soup: "Eat it, Nuoer, you haven't been feeling well these days, so take some more supplements."

"I'm not a child, I can pretend by myself!"

Although I was a little dissatisfied, I still accepted Xiaomo's chicken soup: "Aren't we waiting for Philo?"

"She should be back soon."

Lan Jiajia also helped Elodie fill a bowl of chicken soup: "Sister Ouyang has a high EQ. Nuo'er and Xiaomo are both at home today, and there is also such an angelic lady. Even if the coffee shop is busy, she will not keep Filo for too long."

"Hi! Everyone!"

As if to confirm Lan Jiajia's statement, the moment she finished speaking, the door of the house was opened from the outside. Filo, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, revealing her unique belly button and oversized breasts, strode in with a bright smile on her face: "Leave work early!"

"Look what I said."

Lan Jiajia had a smug expression on her face: "Sister Ouyang never lets us down."

"It smells so good. Can we have another feast today?"

After entering the room, Philo naturally put her bag on the sofa, then quickly went to the kitchen to wash her hands, returned to the living room, sat next to Gabriel, and picked up the chopsticks: "Why do I see someone who can't use chopsticks? Who is this little idiot?"

"you!"

Gabriel was so angry that his cheeks puffed up: "Give me two days... No, one day is enough, I will definitely learn it in one day!"

"Oh my, someone can't use chopsticks and can only clumsily use a fork to pick up delicious food."

Philo still had that sly expression on his face: "It seems that there is a certain basis for the proportional relationship between breast size and brain capacity! Or is it that someone spent the entire afternoon playing games after returning home and didn't learn the local customs well?"

Gabriel's face turned red with anger: "Philo! You want to fight?"

"alright."

Lan Jiajia, who was not clear about the relationship between Filo and Gabriel, quickly came out to smooth things over: "Let's eat quickly. I don't know where Nuo'er went today, but she bought a lot of delicious food. It's rare that there are so many people in our family today. We just happen to have a bottle of wine here. Are there any girls who want to drink it?"

"What! There's wine?!"

When he heard the word "wine", Philo's attention was instantly drawn to it: "Where is it?"

"It's in my room. Elodie's mother brought it here before, but Elodie doesn't seem to like drinking. I'll go get it."

"Little Loli who can't drink alcohol can drink soup or drinks instead, let's clink glasses together!"

"..."

This dinner was a little bit tricky for us girls.

A rental house, six girls, divided into groups of two.

Xiaomo kept helping me pick up dishes and pour soup for me, while Philo was frantically putting meat into Gabriel's bowl. First, she put the cooked roast goose and bamboo salt chicken I bought at the market, and poured wine for Gabriel several times. When Lan Jiajia saw Elodie picking up peppers, she snatched the peppers and ate them herself, and then poured a lot of vegetables for Elodie with a resentful look in her eyes.

It can be seen that although Gabriel had previously claimed that she "didn't like eating meat", she still ate all the chicken and roast goose that Philo brought to her obediently, and showed expressions such as "How can there be such delicious food?" and "This one is even more delicious than the previous one."

After dinner, we watched TV together for a while. Philo took Xiaomo's phone to demonstrate its various functions to Gabriel. Seeing that the time was almost up, Yin Xiamo said, "Let's go for a walk outside," and took Philo, Gabriel and me out.

Since Xiaomo and I went out for a walk almost every night this month, Lan Jiajia and Elodie didn't ask too much about our itinerary. After saying "come back early", they continued to look up information related to "The Age of Aquarius" in the living room.

"I'll go back and probably be back early tomorrow morning, which will take about eight hours."

At the stairs outside the house, a purple light lit up, and Xiaomo appeared in that classic hooded windbreaker. She helped me adjust the small bow and bell on my chest, and then said to Filo, "You two should still be unfamiliar with this city. You can take Nuoer out for a walk tonight."

Gabriel spoke first: "Momo, please remember to ask the Archangel for leave for me."

"I will."

Yin Xiamo put on her hat and said, "I will also talk to the Dragon Clan."

"It doesn't matter whether I tell you or not. Those old guys wouldn't dare to do anything to me."

Filo chuckled and held me in his arms: "Then leave Nuoer to me tonight!"

"And Gabriel, the language barrier will disappear when I'm not here. You must help Gabriel learn the language here as soon as possible."

As I watched, Yin Xiamo jumped onto the guardrail and said, "Let's go."

"and many more."

I took a step forward and opened my arms: "Hold me."

"..."

The girl under the moon seemed a little surprised that I would say that. After hesitating for a few seconds, she opened her arms and hugged me.

"Come back early, don't be late."

After hugging each other for a few seconds, I let go of each other's hands and took a step back.

"I'll buy some rolled noodles and wait for you at home tomorrow morning. If you're late, I won't hesitate to bite you!"

"..."

No. 260 Sleeping Cloud Seat and the Real Sky

The southern part of Minaminagi Ward, Kamihama City, near the Minaminagi Sea.

This is a relatively remote area. Although there are few people, you can see the main roads and various buildings being built around it.

The most obvious of these is the broken bridge on the sea. A large number of steel bars and concrete stand around the broken bridge, and excavators and cranes used for repairs and excavation can be seen everywhere. The connection between the bridge deck and the mainland on the shore is very spacious, and the bridge body has been built for dozens of meters, which is quite impressive like the "Golden Gate Bridge" that is often bombed in movies.

Mianyun Bridge is the most ambitious project in Kamihama City in 2022.

At this time, a large number of ships are moored in front of the cross-sea bridge that has just begun to be built. They are constantly carrying various construction materials to the side of the bridge, preparing to assist in the construction of the bridge when the bridge is built to the deep water area.

"drop--"

Above the Nannagami Sea, I took out my mobile phone while sitting on Filo's shoulder, opened an APP that Su Yunjin had sent me before, and pointed the camera at the bridge in front.

The camera quickly identified the location, and the APP software gave the specific data of the cross-sea bridge - "Construction progress 0.97%, Yuemian No. 1 cargo ship."

In addition, the software also presents a large number of highly detailed engineering models and 3D holographic projections similar to those in science fiction movies.

Digital twin, a concept somewhat similar to the metaverse.

However, "digital twins" are much more practical than the metaverse in a practical sense.

Shinnishi District in Kamihama City is the most remote district in Kamihama City. It was a wasteland in the early years. When Shinnishi District was first established, it was said to be to alleviate the housing prices and housing problems in the city. After they built residential areas, built houses, planted trees, and established parks and scenic spots, they did not expect to discover a large amount of minerals there.
