In Tokyo, I draw cards and become a big demon

He blinked, took out the "star" given to him by Tokugawa Star from his pocket, and saw that it was emitting a soft glow.

It turns out that's its effect.

Uesugi Che pondered for a moment, then solemnly tied it up with a thin string and wore it around his neck, thinking that he might have to carry it with him in the future.

After returning the volumes to their original places, Uesugi Tetsu came to the door and said goodbye softly to the hands that were turning the pages.

"Mr. Administrator, thank you for your help. See you next time."

He paused slightly, turned his palm towards him, and bent all five fingers.

It seems like a bow.

Uesugi Tetsu also bowed in return and then left the data room.

At the door, it was Xiao Hinabo who was waiting for him.

To be more precise, it was Xiao Yuelan who had a small Hiyabo on her head and seemed to have a very good relationship with her.

Uesugi Tetsu raised his eyebrows, thinking that the innocent and simple Hiyaban would not be led astray by this perverted woman.

Hiyabo blinked his little eyes, seemingly unaware of the person he was landing on.

"Uesugi-kun." Xiao Yuelan suddenly spoke, "Unlike you, Miss Hiyaban is very gentle."

She smiled strangely twice: "Just like my mother."

Uesugi Tetsu: “…”

He decided to go find Nanjo Aimi first, return the card and tell her about it at the same time.

Without talking much to Xiaoyue Land, Uesugi Che took the elevator back to the forging room and took away two pieces of equipment that had been repaired.

After telling Nanjo Aimi about Hiyabo's affairs.

Uesugi Tetsu realized that even though they were in the extremely hot forging room, Aoyama Yoshi was sweating all over, while Nanjo Aimi didn't shed even a drop of sweat.

It seems that Nanjo-san's breathing technique is also very advanced.

At least, he is completely unable to be so calm now.

Uesugi Tetsu: "Then Nanjo-sister, I'll go back first."

"Oh, walk slowly."

Nanjo Aimi leaned against the wall, and just as she was about to put the half-burned cigarette into her mouth, she grabbed Uesugi Tetsu's collar and said, "By the way, give me back the doll. You probably don't need the shadow girl anymore."

doll?

Long-lost memories began to revive in Uesugi Tetsu's mind...

Only then did he remember that he had not taken the Nanjo doll out of his storage backpack for a long time because the doll only had a combat power of two and a half stars, which was mediocre.

But last time, Shadow Girl appeared as a hero who saved the day.

Uesugi Tetsu took out the doll and couldn't help laughing when he saw her start to raise her short, linty hands and scream and make a fuss.

It turns out that I have grown so much without realizing it.

"——Even though I can sleep right in there, I can still vaguely feel the passage of time!"

Nanjo Doll put his hands on his hips and complained to his master, "Aimi! Why don't you teach him a lesson right away!"

What are just a dozen or twenty days to Yingnu who has lived for hundreds of years?

It was over almost in the blink of an eye.

So Nanjo Aimi turned a blind eye and threw the doll into her own shadow after smoking her last cigarette.

The next moment, a "gurgling" sound like bubbles being blown in water began to rise.

Everything will be fine after that.

Uesugi Tetsu forcibly took away Nishaku-sama, who was already in an intimate relationship with Nyu, and was sent back home by a staff member of the Special Affairs Department.

At this time, in the Special Affairs Department.

Nanjo Aimi stared expressionlessly at Xiaoyuelan, who had already established a good relationship with Hiyabo.

"You're not going with him?"

"I still have some sense of propriety, Nanjo-sama." Xiao Yuelan licked her lips beneath her mask and smiled. "Sometimes if you want to get close, you have to play hard to get. Attacking too aggressively will only backfire."

Nanjo Aishi didn't comment, she reached out and picked up Hiyabo and threw him into Nyu's arms and said lightly,

"Then let's get used to the new job."

"Yes~ Boss."

……

As soon as Uesugi Che walked into the door, he saw Lilizi sitting cross-legged in the empty dojo on the first floor, with internal energy gushing out of her body.

next moment.

boom!

A violent explosion sounded from her body, and several sharp energies passed by Uesugi Che's face and embedded into the wall behind her.

"Lilizi?!"

Uesugi Che's pupils shrank, and he immediately called Ershaku-sama over.

"I am fine."

Lilizi, whose Qi circulation was shattered, raised her pale face and said calmly, "It was just a small mistake in my thinking. But thanks to this, I also understand the next step."

"Don't talk about these nonsense, just hold Erchi-sama first."

Uesugi Tetsu pushed the girl, who had a frown on her face but didn't make any unnecessary movements, into Ririko's arms.

Immediately, Lilizi's aura became more stable.

Although Erchi-sama thought it would be best if the flat-chested devil died quickly, that way he would have no competitors.

But her body still fell down very honestly, and she even hugged the girl's waist with a sour face.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lilizi's eyes, but she still said what she had planned: "I found that the Corona Breathing Technique is incomplete."

"It's only natural that it's incomplete. The Special Affairs Office couldn't possibly give us the entire Coronal Breathing Technique all at once when we were just getting started."

Uesugi Tetsu didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"No, I'm not talking about this incompleteness." Lilizi said seriously, "It's that our current cultivation is incomplete, not just the flesh palace..."

She was speaking when she suddenly stopped.

Uesugi Tetsu noticed that Ririko's gaze fell on his neck - the exposed blue point.

"Uesugi-kun, have you met Third Sister?"

Without waiting for Uesugi Tetsu's answer, Lilizi raised the corners of her lips and smiled gently.

"It seems that she likes you very much."

She reached out and took the star out of Uesugi Tetsu's collar, staring at it quietly and said, "Otherwise, there's no way she would give it to you... Even my third sister wouldn't give it to me when I wanted it so badly."

"Because of this, I had a big fight with her and didn't speak to her for a week."

Lilizi recalled for a while with unfocused eyes, then reluctantly let go of Xing and said word by word,

"Then Uesugi-kun, please do not disappoint Third Sister."

These two sisters...they look exactly the same when they say this.

Uesugi Tetsu stared at her and nodded slowly: "I know."

"Ah That's good."

Lilizi took a breath to calm herself down, then nodded.

"Let's continue with our previous topic. To be precise, the breathing techniques we've been practicing so far are all incomplete, or rather, the 'youth version.'"

"how you said that?"

Uesugi Che couldn't help but think of the word "foundation" following the "Qi flow" in the previous prompt.

Lilizi: "Didn't our previous Qi training talk about 'strengthening the five internal organs, allowing Qi to flow through the four poles, and circulating endlessly'?"

"Yes." Uesugi Tetsu nodded.

"But in reality, it's 'internal tempering of the five internal organs, qi flowing through the four poles, and continuous circulation of qi in the double heavenly realms.'"

Lilizi spoke clearly, "Use your internal energy to temper the external structure of your five internal organs, not passively. Then, use your energy to penetrate every meridian in your limbs to connect the whole body. Finally, complete the perfect cycle with the internal and external circulations."

"——Only in this way can the flow and circulation of Qi be completed."

She frowned and said,

"I first noticed something was wrong when I was observing from a third party after your breakthrough in the arena."

"At that time, I instinctively felt that there was no reason why the Qi circulation could only be done this way."

Lilizi pointed to the intact notebook in her hand and said, "However, it was also thanks to Third Sister's extremely detailed understanding of cultivation that I was able to quickly discover and verify 'why it can only be done this way'."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid I'd still be struggling to deduce this in my mind, and it might take me a long, long time to understand. Because in the path of cultivation, a slight mistake can lead to a huge error."

It turns out that this notebook belongs to Tokugawa Hoshi, no wonder Ririkko has always been so careful with it.

Uesugi Tetsu thought silently.

So even though they are all in the Tokugawa family, there seems to be a big gap in the relationship between Ririkko and her brothers and sisters.

Now it seems that she has the worst relationship with Tokugawa Haruhiko, but is very close to her third sister Tokugawa Hoshi... Oh, she also has an older brother, who seems to be okay too.

Apart from that, there is the "great-grandfather" who makes Ririko's face turn cold just by seeing the letter.

As for the others, no such person was found.

Lilizi's clear explanation brought Uesugi Tetsu back to his senses.

"--Now I am at the same bottom of the meat palace as you, Uesugi-kun."

She stretched out her arm, revealing her fair, delicate skin that was almost as soft as a baby's, reflecting a faint fluorescent light. "Although I completed the skin hardening not long ago, I've tried many times to make up for the past shortcomings, but I still can't do it."

"So I think we should perfect the Palace of Flesh first."

Lilizi clenched her fists: "With this material foundation, it may be relatively easier for us to go back and practice again."

This makes sense.

Uesugi Tetsu nodded in agreement.

But Lilizi was silent for a moment, and said softly,

"However, the Coronal Breathing Technique still has some shortcomings at the Flesh Palace stage, preventing us from forging a truly magnificent Flesh Palace."

She sighed slightly.

"Without a specific breathing method, I don't know how long it would take to succeed if I were to deduce it by force."
