I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

She was wearing a black dress today, and looked very simple and plain.

Wearing sunglasses and a sun hat.

They look so cute, so adorable.

Chiho was also aware of this, so she turned around, her skirt swaying slightly, revealing her delicate ankles.

"How is it, Xia Wu? Isn't it cute?"

The girl asked this with a smile on her face.

Xia Wuzhao didn't say much, only casually complimenting, "Hmm, very cute."

"Hmm, so fake."

The girl waved her hand dismissively: 'At least, at least give me a sincere compliment!'

Xia Wuzhao looked at the sky and said, "It seems to be getting colder and faster now. Is it okay for you to wear this?"

"of course can."

Chiho tugged at her pantyhose: "Look, these pantyhose are lined with cotton. They're really warm; people who don't wear them have no idea how warm they are."

"Once you put it on, you won't feel cold at all, even if you run into the snow."

Those pantyhose did look quite thick, so thick that you couldn't see the color of the skin.

After giving herself a good presentation, Chiho smiled and said, "Let's go, the underwater ruins today should be quite interesting."

Chapter 268 A towering, ashen-white object resembling a corpse

Today I rode in Chiho's car again, but the driver was a different maid.

Xia Wuzhao glanced at the maid and realized that she did not recognize her.

"What's wrong?" Chiho asked. "Have you taken a fancy to my maid?"

"I'm just wondering why they changed drivers."

Xia Wuzhao answered in this way.

"Because my father needed to use the original driver, he assigned me a new driver when something came up."

Chiho said nonchalantly.

She crossed her legs, and the black pantyhose made a slight rubbing sound as they rubbed together.

The friction sound was quite noticeable; it was the only sound in the car, along with a slight friction noise.

The girl seemed to have something on her mind; she appeared unusually quiet today.

Xia Wuzhao glanced around and, finding nothing amiss, looked outside.

The scenery outside is transitioning from rolling mountains to flatlands.

The height of the building, like a staircase, begins to rise continuously.

Various colorful neon lights began to appear, and pedestrians on the roadside became more and more fashionable and daring in their clothing.

In mountainous areas, everyone wears long skirts; very few people wear short skirts for everyday wear. However, in plains areas, the opposite is true.

Long skirts are only worn by older people, while beautiful women wear short skirts.

They even wore only a thin pair of stockings, not thick, warm ones.

Compared to the mountainous region, this place is like another world.

Fashion, glamour, and pleasure.

However, many people looked numb. Especially the older men, those corporate slaves in suits.

They were all sitting outside, carrying briefcases.

They looked like they had just finished working overtime, but the beer and cigarette butts around them indicated that they had been there for a long time.

"They are all people who are still pretending to work after they have lost their jobs."

Chiho explained to Natsumi, "Because they would be looked down upon by their families if they didn't have a job, they pretend to go out to work every morning."

"Even on Saturdays, they have to pretend they're being forced to work overtime. That's how they maintain their position in the family."

Xia Wuzhao looked at those people and said, "Is the job market really that bad these days?"

"It should be said that there are very few high-paying jobs and a shortage of people for low-paying jobs," Chiho said. "That's why things are like this."

Xia Wuzhao casually echoed, and then fell silent.

Chiho quickly started a conversation, asking, "What have you been thinking about Chiharu lately?"

"I think he's someone whose future might be bad."

"Xia Wu, I actually think she's a very pitiful person."

Chiho said, "Don't you think so?"

"What does this have to do with us?" Xia Wuzhao retorted.

The girl wasn't angry. She said softly, "I think you seem to be a little too concerned about her, Xia Wu."

Xia Wuzhao explained in a casual tone, "After all, she's a senior."

"Oh?"

Chiho said in a meaningful tone, "So, you mean you like men who are older than you?"

Xia Wuzhao glanced at her and immediately denied it.

But Chiho just snorted: "I don't believe it, because you pay less attention to me than you pay attention to Chiharu."

Xia Wuzhao ignored Chiho and just looked out the window.

The port area of ​​Second Neo-Tokyo is located in a very remote part of the Hirai district. Due to the presence of underwater ruins, large ships cannot pass through this area at all.

The newly developed port could only be built in the most remote corner. Only here could it avoid the ruins at sea.

The area near the ruins in the sea is divided into two parts: the land area is called the Old Town, and the seaside area is called the Old Port Area.

The destination is the old port area, which also has a pier. However, it mainly allows small tourist boats or motorboats to pass through.

Upon arriving here, Xia Wuzhao stood on the beach with her eyes slightly narrowed.

It's a bit cold here, so cold that it makes you want to shiver.

Chiho had arranged everything; everything was pre-booked.

There was a small, powered wooden boat, operated by a maid. The two boarded the boat only after both had put on their life jackets.

The maid drove very slowly, gently carving a wave across the calm sea.

"That ruin is a very popular classic, Xia Wu."

Chiho pointed to one of the tallest ruins and said, "You can go up the stairs to the roof from there."

"Everyone loves taking photos there, and that's our destination. What do you think?"

Xia Wuzhao looked over and found that the ruins looked like a brand new building.

It was painted red.

"It looks terrible."

Xia Wuzhao commented in this way.

"Oh? Why is that?" Chiho asked Natsugiri, "Most tourists are very satisfied with this attraction."

“If you want to see the whole building, then just go to the city to see it,” Xia Wuzhao said, looking at the building. “Isn’t the ruin in the sea supposed to be something to see, those exposed ruins in the ocean, like the gray corpses of giants?”

Chiho glanced at Natsumi Kyou and smiled, "I knew you'd say that. I knew it."

"Therefore, today's goal is not that ruin."

She smiled and said, "That's our goal for today."

Chiho was pointing to another set of ruins, which looked completely unremarkable.

Moreover, it's only one story higher than the sea level.

It was no different from other ruins in the ocean.

Moreover, it should appear even more dilapidated.

The exterior walls were covered with barnacles and shellfish, and seaweed grew in the cracks of broken cement and among the rusty steel bars.

The girl smiled like a little devil: "Xia Wu, did you guess it?"

"No."

Xia Wu spoke these words truthfully, gazing at the ruins in the distance.

The ruins looked extremely unsafe, with exposed, red steel bars everywhere, like clumps of sharp weeds.

There was even a warning sign outside: "Danger! Do not climb!"

Xia Wuzhao felt that this place did not resemble a tourist attraction.

"—It's more like an execution platform."

Was Chiho planning to end everything here?

End her life, along with all her troubles and pain, amidst the rusted, red-hot steel spikes and the gray-white ruins resembling giant corpses.

Xia Wuzhao thought to herself.

"Chiho probably wouldn't do that now."

Xia Wuzhao thought about his promise to Qianhui, wondering what Qianhui had come to do today.

So he waited silently.

Chapter 269 Like a bird with broken wings

"Hurry up~~"

Chiho climbed into the ruins through a window and urged Natsugiri Kai to come in quickly.

As for the maid, she ordered the maid to just watch over the ship.

Once inside the ruins, there was a layer of seawater that almost submerged our ankles.

Chiho skillfully made her way up the stairs, but the scene up there wasn't much to see.

It's just ordinary.

All I can say is that it is indeed a ruin.

Even the ruins in the sea are no different from those elsewhere.

Chiho stood at the edge of the ruins, looking into the distance.

In the distance stretched the vast ocean, while nearby throngs of tourists gathered. Cheers echoed intermittently, and the roar of engines was deafening.

It's as if this isn't a tourist attraction, but a bustling city.

"So, what do you think of the scenery here?"

The girl asked Xia Wuzhao.

If it were a normal person, they would probably say something polite, or at least try to brush it off.

After all, you were invited here by someone else.

However, Xia Wuzhao said, "It's nothing special, just ordinary."

"is it?"

The girl stood beside the ruins, looking down at the sea.

The seawater wasn't very clear, so the ruins weren't visible on the surface.

“Hmm,” Xia Wuzhao said, “The scenery here is just ordinary. The best view is from the seaside looking here.”

"Chichi."

The girl said meaningfully, "Yes, that's right. That's exactly it, that's exactly how it is."

Sometimes, you can only see the perfect scenery by standing at a distance.

"I understand that principle."
