"Well, that's fine. Even though this is like walking into a tiger's mouth, at least it can distract me from the discomfort of being disconnected from the internet."

"Please, I won't do anything without considering Qingyi's feelings."

"really?"

"Well, if Qing Yi really refuses..."

Zhe had no choice but to say so when asked by Qingyi, and the latter looked like he completely understood and even nodded.

"I see. If I don't resist strongly enough, will it be considered playing hard to get? Well, it seems I have to control the intensity of my resistance..."

"what?"

"Nothing, let's go into the store first."

Qingyi acted as if nothing had happened, and was then carried all the way back to the store by Zhe. Ling, who had been observing through the glass on the door, even considerately opened the door for her.

After being taken to Zhe's room on the second floor, Qingyi drank several large cups of hot water and recovered a little.

"Withdrawal reaction... Ugh... It hurts... Humans are amazing... They're willing to fight this kind of thing..."

Qingyi still looked weak, as if he had lost some support in his body, and his whole body looked limp.

After hearing what she just said, Zhe thought of what Qingyi said before, "there is no internet", and immediately had some guesses.

"Qingyi, are you...quitting the internet?"

Zhe asked uncertainly, and Qingyi nodded slightly tiredly.

"Hmm... I'm doing a 24-hour offline challenge... I can't pull real-time data... I'm wandering the city alone... and I realize I never even saved an offline version of the map...

I feel even more lost than in a cave, and the only roads I can remember by muscle memory are the Public Security Bureau and... here..."

While speaking, Qingyi looked at Zhe again, revealing his weakness intentionally or unintentionally, as if saying, "If you want to do something now, I can't resist at all."

"Well, although this place doesn't have as much equipment to help you as the Sheriff's Office, you can come anytime you want."

However, Zhe did not immediately do as Qingyi wished. Instead, he took advantage of the latter's lack of resistance and reached out to touch her head.

Qingyi, who was sitting on the bed, gritted her teeth and slapped away Zhe's hand on her head.

"For some reason... every time it comes to this... I always want to lock myself in a quiet and dark place...

If I go back to the Public Security Bureau... after all, I'm a senior, and I'm letting everyone see how useless I am... ah... internet... I need the internet... um... not yet... hold on a little longer..."

As Qingyi spoke, her eager little hand was placed on Zhe's body, but seeing that the latter remained unmoved, she withdrew her hand in frustration.

Then she seemed a little angry, turned around as if she had made up her mind, and got into bed.

Chapter 232 Qing Yi: I thought you didn’t know that I like you too...

And that’s not all. Before Zhe’s somewhat surprised gaze, a snow-white, slender little hand stretched out from under the quilt in a short while.

Some things were also thrown out, such as a pair of white socks, a Sheriff's uniform top, gloves, and pants.

"Hmph, Qingyi, do you want to have a good rest? Then how about I excuse myself first?"

Zhe said this deliberately, but he supported himself on the bed with one hand and looked at the bulging quilt with a smile on his face.

Fortunately, when I got up in the morning, I had already changed the sheets that Jane and I slept on last night.

At this moment, Qingyi reached out her hand from under the quilt again and grabbed Zhe's arm that was supporting him on the bed.

Then he pulled Zhe hard onto the bed and wrapped him in the quilt.

In the slightly translucent quilt, Zhe clearly saw Qingyi's cute little face, who seemed a little angry and unwilling.

"Damn it... You weren't like this before... I've already come this far... Do I really have to take the initiative? Well, you succeeded!"

As Qingyi spoke, she lowered her head and kissed Zhe's lips fiercely as if in revenge. After she let go, Zhe also showed a smile as if he had succeeded in his evil plan.

"I can't help it. Qing Yi is so adorable like this, and there aren't many opportunities to force Qing Yi to take the initiative~"

"Hmph, 4 hours, 32 minutes, and 06 seconds! That's the remaining time I'll be offline. Take responsibility!"

Qing Yi said as she lowered herself down again, and from the outside, the bulging blanket on the bed began to stir...

2 hours later...

"Well... even if I'm Yuou... no! Come again..."

Another hour later...

“…No…I really can’t do that…I think it’s okay to endure the feeling of no internet…”

"How can that be? There's still an hour and a half left until the time Qing Yi mentioned. I have to take responsibility."

"Well……"

However, although Zhe said this, he stopped decisively when he saw that Qingyi could not hold on any longer.

……(delete)

She rested for another hour and a half, and finally arrived at the time Qingyi mentioned. At this moment, she regained her spirit and looked much better.

"Phew, I managed to hold on for a full 24 hours without missing a single second. This game of Truth or Dare is truly thrilling."

Qingyi no longer had any worries at this time. After taking a deep breath, he looked at Zhe beside him. The latter also spoke with some confusion at this time.

"So Qing Yi forced herself to that point just for the truth or dare?"

"Well, I can't say I was forced. Although I only had the sudden urge to come and find you to kill time after I got to the video store, it's not bad to take the initiative once in a while."

The premise is that it is not like the second half.

Qingyi thought so in his heart, but what Zhe said was certainly not that. After all, he didn't think Qingyi was doing it reluctantly like him.

"I'm talking about choosing to disconnect from the internet because of Dare."

"Ah, sorry, I misunderstood. I didn't think I expressed it clearly before, and I thought you didn't realize that I like you too."

Qingyi spoke calmly, but her face was slightly red.

Qingyi's favorability increased by 1 point, the current favorability is 90 points, and the emotional value gained is 1000, the current emotional value is 31600 points.

"Ahem, I had to quit because I chose dare before. I had no choice. Should I choose truth? If I were asked if I had someone I liked, I would have told you out."

Qingyi used a playful tone, and Zhe couldn't help but smile when he heard it.

"But next time, please don't do such forced things, okay?"

"Yeah, but this time we were able to win thanks to Zhe. I'll treat you to tea next time, or maybe I can ask Zhu Yuan out for you?"

I have to say that when Senior Qingyi is not serious, she really looks like a little girl, although the conditions she offers are indeed very tempting.

But even if he thought hard, it was impossible for him to agree at this time, right? So Zhe naturally chose to refuse.

"Is this the tea that Senior made? Will it be bitter?"

"Hmph~ You'll only know after you taste it."

As Qingyi spoke, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, as if she was happy that Zhejing had resisted the temptation. Of course, this was referring to Zhu Yuan, not herself.

Qingyi couldn't help but feel annoyed when she thought about how she had hinted at Zhe before but he seemed unmoved. However, her anger had now been extinguished by the water.

"Let's put the tea making process on hold for now. Since the bet is complete and it's already this late, I should be heading back soon."

After checking the time, Qingyi planned to go back soon. However, when Zhe heard this, he reached out and touched Qingyi's body.

"You don't have any emergencies, do you? How about staying here tonight?"

"No, I won't stay out all night unless it's a mission. It will make others suspicious. Besides, I can't accept being with other girls for the time being.

This is limited by my own will, and it's not that easy to break through for now, so please understand."

Since Qingyi refused so tactfully, Zhe naturally couldn't force her to stay. Now that the other party had clearly admitted that she liked him, there was no need to force her.

Anyway, Qingyi should accept it over time. Or maybe it's because she is not familiar with other people yet. If it were someone she knew, she might be more relaxed.

Well, imagine, if Zhu Yuan was also there, Qing Yi might have acted calm and composed in order to maintain the demeanor of a senior.

He might even be very proactive and teach Zhu Yuan what to do as a senior.

Given Yize's understanding of Qingyi, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible. The latter didn't know what he was thinking, but his eyes were a little confused.

After a little tenderness, Zhe carried Qingyi to the bathroom to clean up. The latter was very calm about it.

After all, now that she has admitted her love for Zhe, it is no longer good to pretend, unless it is to play hard to get, but this trick seems to be of no use to Zhe.

As Qingyi was thinking this, Zhe had already washed away the sticky stuff on her hair.

Not long after, a brand new Qingyi appeared in the room, and Zhe went to prepare dinner. Although he couldn't stay out all night, it was still okay to have dinner.

As a high-level jade doll, Qingyi naturally has some reservations about taste.

Chapter 233 No. 11: Zhe, you are much more important to me than you think

"It's truly amazing that Zhe's cooking skills have reached this level. Coupled with his gentle personality, it's no wonder so many girls are so devoted to you."

Qingyi, who was sitting at the dining table, couldn't help but sigh, but her eyes were looking at the sisters Odile and Odette, as well as Ambi and Nekomata who happened to come over to eat.

"Hey, why is there a sheriff here? Are you planning to infiltrate the Sheriff's Department? Meow."

Mao covered her mouth with her hands and asked softly to Zhe beside her. She and Ambi judged that Qingyi was a sheriff based on her clothes.

And it seems that she has a very good relationship with Zhe, so it can't help but arouse the imagination of the two.

"No, and that kind of thing is a crime, right? If you really do that, you'll be arrested."

"Eh? But even if I don't do this, I'll still be arrested if I'm discovered..."

"Ahem, Nekomata..."

"Woo, h-sorry, meow."

After being reminded by Ambi, Mao, who almost let the cat out of the bag, quickly changed his words. Seeing this, Qingyi, who was standing next to him, smiled.

"Oh? What did you mean by that, Miss Nekomata?"

"Nah... no, it was just a joke, nya~"

Nekomata tried to get away with it, but Qingyi, seeing this, forced herself to suppress the smile on her face and continued to speak in a serious tone.

"So it was just a joke? But I have a feeling something is wrong. How about sending someone to investigate?"

"Meow?! No, no need. Nothing happened at all. There's no need for the Public Security Bureau to send so many people over here. Meow!"

Nekomata looked a little nervous and looked at Ambi beside him for help, but found that the latter was quite calm and even wanted to pick up some food to feed Zhe.

It was at this time that she discovered that Zhe and Ling, the two people involved, were actually quite calm, and even had a faint smile on their faces.

At this point, Maoyou realized that he must have been teased, but due to Qingyi's identity as a sheriff, he was not sure.

Seeing her dilemma, Zhe couldn't bear to tease her any more, so he waved at Qingyi.

"That's enough, Qingyi. If this continues, Nekomata will be too pitiful."

"Ha, well, actually I think it's a bit too much, too. Sorry, Miss Nekomata."

"Meow?"

After hearing the conversation between the two, Mao You finally confirmed what he had in mind. This blue-clothed sheriff was obviously on their side.

Ambi obviously noticed something before, but he didn't tell me, making me worry in vain. How hateful, meow!

And then Zheya explained the relationship between Qingyi and himself, and the latter decisively admitted it while observing the expressions of Nekomata and Ambi.

I found that there was no negative emotion such as rejection, only...

"Well, so, we can be considered to have a background in the Public Security Bureau in the future?"

While Ambi was analyzing calmly, he also looked at Qingyi who was not far away from him, but the latter shook his head.

"That won't do. Although I like Zhe, public interests outweigh personal interests. I'm only maintaining the status quo because I don't have any evidence."

"No evidence?"

"Yes, at least my visual records don't show any evidence against Zhe."
