Absolute Zone Zero: I am a Succubus in Six Points Street

"Impressive. Truly worthy of being among the Crown Jewels…

However, for an artifact so deeply cherished by its owner, I hope it will never be circulated to a place where it shouldn’t be.”

The blond youth expressed his gratitude, nodded, and then gracefully left with Robin...

"He's a bit of an odd person... but he's probably not a bad person. When you were telling me about the concert incident, you said it was terrifying, but you didn't seem surprised at all!"

"Maybe he's a noble from somewhere."

Zhe didn't take it seriously. Perhaps it was because he had seen too many things during this period of time, so except for special circumstances, he was not easily alarmed.

"But he's right. It's time to prepare for the match... Yeah, no problem! Ies will definitely not lose!"

Jiayin clenched her fists and cheered for Ies, who also looked very motivated and full of fighting spirit.

Ies's costume is white hair and red eyes, absolutely elegant and full of cuteness. He then had a fierce competition with Robin.

However, after the game, Xiao Pei was very excited and went to find Ies and Zhe who were waiting for the result of the game.

"Contestant Ies!! And Mr. Tetsu! Something...very unusual has happened!! It's a draw, it's a draw!!"

"What? This is a tie?"

Zhe was surprised by the draw result.

"It's absolutely true. The organizing committee has been reviewing it for a long time. I think we're going to be in trouble now..."

Xiao Pei was excited but also a little worried. However, at this moment, the purple-haired girl who accidentally heard the conversation noticed this side.

"Draw? You guys tied with that Robin?"

"you are?"

Hearing the other person's voice, Zhe turned his gaze over. The other person was a girl with elegant temperament, holding a purple and black parasol, and her every move showed the style of a young lady.

Her snow-white skin highlights the bright red eyes on her beautiful face. A pair of elf-like pointed ears indicate her unique identity. Exquisite black stockings outline her slender legs.

"I'm not your fan anyway."

Hearing Zhe's question, the girl showed a cold expression, but then spoke again.

"But you guys were able to tie with that Robin...that's pretty impressive."

The strange girl left these words and left lightly...

"There are so many Bombs here. I wonder if dear Lord Phaethon is here...?"

The girl's passionate whisper was not heard by others, or rather, it was inconspicuous around the crowded stadium.

Zhe didn't care about the girl's departure, but the girl knew Robin. Could they be friends?

While thinking, Xiao Pei suddenly received a message that Robin had withdrawn from the competition!

This news caught both of them off guard. Xiao Pei felt sorry, but Zhe sensed something was wrong after the former left in a hurry.

Zhe went to find Jiayin, who was relieved after hearing the news.

"Phew, I worried for nothing!"

"Does Jiayin think this is okay?"

"I don't know why Robin withdrew from the competition... but, this is also a kind of luck!

Didn’t I tell you before that [good luck] is also very important to become a champion~"

Jiayin didn't mind this matter. After all, there was no point in minding it. It was better to look forward and think about the next game.

But in response to her persuasion, Zhe only pondered for a while and then suddenly spoke.

"Jia Yin, check on [Hemiola]."

“Huh…huh?”

"Hurry, especially Youlan's record!"

"Ah, that record, actually..."

Jiayin seemed to want to say something, but seeing Zhe's anxious look, she took out [Hemiola] first and carefully checked the status of [Youlan's posthumous work]...

"Actually, the one currently on [Hermiola] isn't the original copy. It's a specially remixed version for [Hermiola] that includes sound-sensitive ether."

“…Is this precious?”

After learning that it was not the parent copy, Zhe relaxed a little, but still asked carefully. Jiayin was also a little unsure about this.

"Hmm... well, it's pretty precious, isn't it? It's not the original, but it's one of a kind in the world."

Chapter 378 Jiayin's New Clothes

"But I've checked, the record is fine, it's right here. Are you suspecting that the collector is a bad guy?"

"Just wanted to make sure."

"Well... he's a bit mysterious. But my intuition tells me that he's not a bad person. You heard what he said about [Hemiola]."

Jiayin's intuition has always been very sharp, and Zhe nodded after hearing it.

"Maybe he's just a weird person..."

"Hmm... Speaking of which, isn't it time for Xiao Pei to come back? I haven't received the finals questions yet..."

As if hearing Jiayin's words, Xiao Pei ran over...

"Here we go! The topic for the finals! It's—[The Treasure of New Eridu]."

"This question is even more vague than before..."

After listening to this, Zhe couldn't help but complain, and Xiao Pei nodded in agreement.

"That's a strange question indeed. Isn't Bomb the new treasure of Eridu? Then wouldn't all the contestants have to do is stand on the stage?"

"It's just like this for Xiao Pei..."

It is normal for a fanatical Bomb fan to think this way, but Xiao Pei was shocked when he heard what Zhe said.

"Hey, am I exposed again?!"

"When have you ever hidden..."

"I-I should get back to work...Anyway...good luck in the finals!"

Xiao Pei patted her face and ran away... I really wanted to tell her that this would only make her face redder.

"As expected of a finals question, I'm a bit lost as to where to begin..."

Jiayin fell into deep thought with some distress, and Zhe nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, I can't think of a direction for the moment."

"Yes. The most precious things are not the same for everyone, even if you add the adjective 'city'...

What is the [New Eridu Treasure]? 1000 people might have 2000 different answers!

Jiayin's words were quite exaggerated, but it was no use just staying here and worrying about it, so she decided to go find some inspiration like she had done before.

"If that's the question, where should I go..."

"I have an idea. I want to go to the place where I first met Jia Yin."

"You mean... Guangying Square? Hmm... If that's where it is, I... have an idea. Wait for me."

Jiayin said a few words to Evelin and seemed to go to her exclusive lounge...After that, Evelin came to pick up Zhe and arrived at Guangying Plaza.

When they met again, Jiayin had changed into a new outfit. It was a gorgeous black dress that highlighted his fair skin and made his long legs look extremely beautiful.

"Hmm~ Still pretty?"

"Yeah, it's really beautiful."

"Really? That's great! I was planning to wear it when I go shopping on vacation~ You said you were coming to Guangying Plaza, and I suddenly wanted to... wear it in advance~"

Jiayin was happy but also a little shy. Zhe's gaze was a little too passionate, although she didn't mind it.

"Alright! Stop talking about me. Aren't we here to find inspiration for the finals question? But why do you think we can find the answer here..."

"Intuition. I learned it from Jia Yin."

"Eh? When did you learn that? Then why don't you secretly learn my singing ability as well?"

Jiayin joined in the joke, but in fact, Zhe's purpose was to come here to see what everyone liked.

"Yeah, that makes sense. You should be more familiar with Guangying Plaza than I am, right? After all... I rarely have the opportunity to go shopping here, so I don't want to cause trouble for Evelin and the others...

But if today is for the competition, it should be okay, right? And with you here...how about taking me to a place you like?"

Jiayin pretended to be a spoiled child and begged. Zhe had never been able to refuse such an attack, and there was no reason for him to refuse.

The two of them came to the overpass together. There happened to be no one passing by at that time, so they just watched the scene on the street below.

"Is this your favorite place? The atmosphere is indeed very special... It's on the most noisy and bustling main road, but standing here, it feels a little quiet..."

“It’s perfect for singing.”

"Eh? Is this place perfect for singing?

Jiayin couldn't help but be stunned by Zhe's words. A sentence suddenly emerged in her mind - "I really want to be a human!", just kidding.

"If I sing here, my voice...will be completely drowned out, right?"

“But I’m happy to sing~”

"Have you ever sung it or heard it before..."

Jiayin couldn't help but complain, but when she said this, she couldn't help but think of that scene.

"If someone sings while walking across the overpass, they must be incredibly happy. I suddenly want to hear that kind of singing...

It will be different from the one on stage, right? "

Jiayin sighed, then looked at Zhe beside her and spoke with a smile on her face.

"I've noticed... you take life very seriously. You're such a great and legendary rope maker, but I used to think you were some kind of 'big man in the shadows'.

Would you be more... more awe-inspiring and unapproachable? But you're actually quite cute..."

“The most important thing in life is to be happy.”

Zhe accepted Jiayin's compliment without changing his expression. The latter couldn't help but laugh out loud, but felt that what he said made sense.

"Pfft... If I could learn to relax more like you, Eve would probably worry less... Then please, tell me more about this!"

The two continued to move forward and suddenly stopped when passing by the cinema.

"It's here~"

"Did you guess that? I just said that I wanted to come to the place where I first met Jiayin."

"...It was only a short while ago, but I'm already starting to feel nostalgic!"

Jiayin spoke in a light tone, and Zhe recalled the scene at that time and spoke again.

"I still remember that day when the cinema was surrounded by Jiayin's fans..."

“Well… I reflected on it later. Although I was really unhappy that day… I still shouldn’t have abandoned my fans.

Everyone clearly came here with the intention of liking me and celebrating for me..."

When she said this, Jiayin suddenly stopped talking and fell into silence. Seeing this, Zhe spoke with concern.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking, it's so hard to make everyone happy. Even though that's my job...

But sometimes, there are moments, just moments – I wonder if I am included in the wish to make everyone happy…”

"If Jiayin wants everyone to be happy, then I will be the one who wants Jiayin to be happy."

“…Eh…”

Zhe's sincere words penetrated deeply into Jiayin's heart, and the latter smiled happily after a moment of acquaintance.
