Zongman: Beginning and Snow under the Rain Escape from Raccoon City

He whispered in her ear.

Ayaka Kamisato looked at herself in the mirror.

The white shirt held the chest line in place, the waist was neatly cinched, and the shoulder line of the coat was also just right.

She turned her head to meet Ye Hai's gaze in the mirror, said nothing, and simply nodded slightly.

The sound of footsteps passing by outside the curtain faded into the distance.

Ayaka Kamisato clenched her fists to suppress the heat, then pulled back the curtain.

The shop assistant came up to me and circled around me with a genuine smile: "Miss, this outfit fits you perfectly. The shoulder line is just right, and the skirt length is also just right."

Ye Hai nodded and handed over the spare set as well: "Take this set too, please pack it up together."

When I checked out, the bag was bulging.

The shop assistant handed the receipt to Ayaka Kamisato: "Miss, your boyfriend has great taste."

"Not only are the clothes beautiful, but the person is also beautiful."

Ayaka Kamisato paused for a moment, then still responded with a soft "Mm".

……

While Ye Hai and Ayaka Kamisato were on a date in the street, Ai Haibara finally completed the animal experiments on the drug.

Inside the Deepsea Financial Company, a section has been partitioned off, behind which is a whole floor of enclosed experimental area behind a glass door.

The corridor lights were kept low, the temperature and humidity display screen was lit in the corner, and the noise from the air vents was absorbed by the sound-absorbing panels, leaving only uniform white noise.

Ai Haibara removed her goggles, put the last set of data into the record folder, and only spoke after confirming that the indicator lights were normal: "The animal experiments were all successful, the effect—100% larvalization, no abnormalities."

Akemi Miyano nodded and said with a smile, "Understood. Let's begin."

Actually, she was a little nervous inside, but she couldn't show it in front of her younger sister.

Akemi Miyano sat down at the lab table and took the small bottle.

Ai Haibara lowered the room temperature by two degrees and placed a cold compress, towel, water, and spare mask beside her: "Drink slowly. I'm here."

The medicine tasted bland when swallowed. A dozen seconds later, a wave of heat surged up from my stomach, like someone had poured a basin of hot water over my chest.

Akemi Miyano's forehead quickly broke out in a sweat, and her fingertips became hot.

"Breathe with me." Ai Haibara held her hand, steadily moving it up and down, "Inhale—exhale—inhale—exhale—"

Within the first minute, Akemi Miyano's breathing became heavy, and sweat trickled down her temples.

Within two minutes, the heat began to spread to her limbs, and even her back felt hot against the chair back. She raised her hand to wipe the sweat, but her hand was unsteady.

The Red Queen displayed a notification on the screen: [High Heat Warning.]

0 0 0

Without saying a word, Ai Haibara quickly placed cold compresses on Akemi Miyano's neck and armpits, and wiped her forehead with a towel soaked in cool water: "Hang in there a little longer, it'll be over soon."

In the third minute, her body became burning hot, and Miyano Akemi's vision went black for a moment. She gripped the edge of the lab table tightly with her fingers, but her strength clearly diminished.

She heard Ai Haibara calling her name, her voice neither too close nor too far: "Akami, can you hear me?"

"...I heard it."

She gave a weak reply, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible.

The next second, everything went completely black, and I was thrown backward.

Ai Haibara was prepared; she half-held her and laid her flat, propping her up with a pillow, and continued applying a cold compress.

She whispered in Miyano Akemi's ear, "Breath follows my hand."

The high fever stopped rising. After about another minute, Akemi Miyano's chest heaved more evenly, and the sweat on her forehead stopped pouring out as much as before.

The Red Queen's notification sound has been changed to a short "beep": [Peak position reached.]

When the hype dies down, people feel completely drained.

Akemi Miyano slowly opened her eyes, her gaze momentarily unfocused before meeting Ai Haibara's face.

She opened her mouth: "...All done?"

"Ah."

Ai Haibara pushed the cold compress down a little, her tone still calm: "Rest for half a minute before sitting up."

It was only then that Akemi Miyano noticed another, more obvious change—the cuffs had widened, the fabric at the waist had loosened, and the heels of her shoes seemed about to slip off.

Akemi Miyano looked down at herself, a slight smile finally appearing on her lips: "Looks like it was a success."

Chapter 177 The Loli Sisters Finally Take Shape

Ai Haibara pulled the movable screen into place and placed the clothes she had prepared earlier beside it: "Change your clothes first."

Akemi Miyano nodded, took a breath, and sat up.

Feeling a little light after the heat subsided, she stood up, leaning on the screen, and walked to the back.

The sound of fabric rubbing together was brief, then quickly subsided.

"Do you need help?"

Haiyuan asked sadly.

"It doesn't work."

Akemi Miyano's voice was much clearer than before, but still weak from the recent fever: "I can."

A few minutes later, the curtain was pulled open from the inside.

The girl who came out was noticeably much smaller.

She still had that same smooth, long hair, but the hair that used to only reach her shoulders now flowed down to her waist like water, swaying slightly with every movement.

She was wearing a white shirt and a light-colored pleated skirt that she had prepared. The skirt hem was just above mid-thigh and swayed gently with her movements as she walked, giving her a lively and pretty look.

The shrunk body appears even more slender, yet still retains its elegant lines.

Although the curve of her chest was smaller, it was still clearly visible under the pure white fabric, as if she had gathered her mature charm into a tight and subtle beauty.

She has a slender waist, and her legs are fair and long beneath the skirt, making her proportions appear even more delicate due to her petite figure.

After the fever subsided, her cheeks were tinged with a light pink, and her eyelashes were still damp, making her eyes look clear and captivating.

Ai Haibara looked at her, said nothing, and simply handed her the small mirror: "Look at yourself."

Akemi Miyano took it, and the reflection in the mirror showed a petite yet charming young girl.

Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, her skirt swayed gently, and her graceful figure was shrunk to an even more compact proportion.

The combination of coquettishness and elegance creates a unique sense of contrast.

She stared for two seconds, pursed her lips slightly, and nodded: "Mm."

"Drink some water first."

Ai Haibara handed over a bottle of room temperature water and then tidied up the cold compress and towel: "The high fever phase has passed, but I need to observe for a while longer."

Akemi Miyano held the bottle in both hands, making it appear smaller than usual. She took a sip, and water stains appeared on the corners of her lips.

She brushed a strand of long hair aside with her fingertips, her expression gentle, with a touch of fresh charm: "Let's go."

She lowered her head to straighten her skirt, and only looked up after confirming that it fit.

Her long hair cascaded down her shoulders; she was simply a perfect loli.

……

The living room curtains were half-drawn, and the afternoon sunlight shone through the sheer curtains, casting a layer of pale golden patterns.

Ningguang sat at the long table, a laptop open in front of her.

She lightly touched the touchpad with her fingertips, and the pages on the screen flipped through rapidly.

This was her first encounter with the internet.

However, in just a few days, she had already mastered the operation.

"Search, categorize, filter..."

Ningguang read it softly, a faint smile curving her lips: "It saves even more time than flipping through a thousand ancient books."

Slender fingers landed on the keyboard, producing crisp, clear taps.

New pages kept flashing on the screen, ranging from news and data to publicly available business information—it seemed like all sorts of information was there.

This world is truly amazing.

Ningguang's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of excitement.

What she saw was not scattered words, but the trends and patterns hidden between the lines.

"If Liyue had such a tool... I could save at least ten times the manpower."

she whispered.

On the other side, Yae no Miko nestled in the sofa.

She did not transform into human form, but remained in the shape of a pink and white fox.

Its tail was curled to its side, its pinkish-purple eyes were half-closed, and its paws were deftly gliding across a tablet computer.

"Heh... These people write interesting things."

Yae no Miko's languid voice echoed in the living room.

Ningguang glanced at her and asked, "Are you studying the literature of this world?"

"of course."

Yae no Miko slowly licked her paws, her smile deepening: "It combines research and entertainment."

"Since they call it 'light novel,' then I should be able to read it easily to be considered acceptable, right?"

As she spoke, she flipped the tablet over and read aloud a passage: "The female protagonist is aloof and arrogant. Although she doesn't care, she still puts a coat on him at night."

After reading it aloud, she twitched her fox ears, squinted at Ningguang, and said, "Tsk tsk, don't you think it looks a lot like you?"

Ningguang's gaze remained fixed on the computer screen; she simply replied, "A story is a story, no need to take it personally."

"Don't be so cold."

Yae no Miko rolled over, exposing her belly to the sunlight, looking as lazy as a ball of fluff.

"Seriously, there are so many love stories here."

"I've read a few books, and they're almost all about boys pursuing girls."

"This is so boring. If I were to write it, it would definitely be about girls taking advantage of their partners and then walking away..."

Ningguang stopped what she was doing, paused slightly, and then said calmly, "Then I'm afraid the sales won't be very high."

……

The afternoon sunlight had softened, but the neon lights in the amusement park lit up even faster than the sky.

Colorful balls were stacked to form an archway at the entrance, and people kept pouring in, accompanied by upbeat music from the speakers.

Ayaka Kamisato quickened her pace slightly.

She had changed into the white shirt and plaid skirt that Ye Hai had picked out for her, with the bow tied tightly at her waist.

Her skirt swayed gently with her movements, and her long hair was lifted by the wind, making her look exceptionally radiant.

"It's so lively here."

She watched as the roller coaster track slowly rose into the sky, her eyes filled with obvious excitement.

What do you want to play?
