There were strangers next to Fan Xiao, but judging from their chatting and laughing, they must be acquaintances.
And it's very likely that they're acquaintances from another district.
Given Fan Xiao's cautious nature, he probably wouldn't reveal his origins so easily.
If they go looking for it now, the origins of Fan Xiao's 010 division will no longer be hidden.
"My sister is so thoughtful..." Lu Baizhi nodded: "Then let's go to the carriage next door."
"No need," Lu Xining gently shook her head.
"Huh...? Why aren't you using it anymore?"
Lu Baizhi asked curiously.
After she finished speaking, she followed her sister's gaze and saw that Fan Xiao was waving at them, beckoning them to come over.
"He doesn't seem to be hiding his background, let's go over there."
Lu Xining reminded her sister and then walked over first.
Lu Baizhi followed closely behind.
After the two arrived at the seats opposite Fan Xiao, Lu Xining unceremoniously plopped down next to Fan Xiao, then patted the seat next to her that was near the aisle, indicating that her sister should also sit down.
"..."
Lu Baizhi glanced at her sister suspiciously, suppressed the resentment rising in her heart, and sat down.
The seats opposite the three were occupied by Nori, the head maid, and the head guard, in that order.
"They are my friends."
Fan Xiao introduced Nori and the other two to them: "Doll, Gardenia, you can call them that."
He did not reveal the two sisters' names without permission.
“Friend…” Nori suddenly asked, “It’s not your girlfriend, is it?”
"No...that's not it."
Lu Baizhi blushed slightly and denied it.
After rejecting the idea, she became a little nervous... Would Fan Xiao misunderstand that she was refusing?
Um... how should I answer this kind of question?
This feels so difficult!
“Not a girlfriend,” Lu Xining said, “but a marriage partner.”
"...What?" Nori wondered if she had misheard. "You...you're married?"
"Yes."
Lu Xining nodded, as if asserting her ownership, and said, "We are passionately in love every day."
"elder sister……?"
Lu Baizhi looked at her sister, who was talking nonsense, with some confusion.
"Just kidding, to lighten the mood."
Lu Xining stared at Nori and said, "You're not really taking this seriously, are you?"
"Hmph...rude mortal."
Nori said somewhat unhappily.
A mortal, wearing an eye patch... turns out to be a chuunibyou kid, not much of a threat... Lu Xining made a basic judgment in her mind.
"Sister, why are you... making jokes like that?" Lu Baizhi reminded her, "It will cause misunderstandings, and it will... it will cause trouble for Fan Xiaotian."
As she spoke, she stole a few glances at Fan Xiao.
Fan Xiao turned his head and met her gaze, then smiled and said, "It's nothing, just a joke, what's there to take seriously?"
As he spoke, he ignored Lu Xining's buttocks and thighs that kept pressing against him.
Because they were sitting right next to each other, no one noticed Lu Xining's little antics.
Fan Xiao's expression was calm, but his heart was far from calm.
We're on a time-travel train right now!
There are three people sitting across from you watching. What are you trying to do, little girl?!
"These three are my teammates from the last dungeon: Nori, the head maid, and the head guard. You can call them that."
While ignoring Lu Xining's teasing, Fan Xiao introduced the three members of the Nori family to the two sisters.
"Maid, guard..." Lu Baizhi asked curiously, "Nori... are you the young lady?"
“Young lady, mortals are not qualified to address me by my full name. I will allow you to use the honorific title ‘Your Highness’.”
Norrie maintained her persona as always.
“Little girl…?” Lu Baizhi was taken aback.
Being called "little girl" by a little girl confused her a bit.
Fan Xiao spoke up to defuse the situation, saying, "Zhi Zi, are you and your sister going to a dungeon?"
"Ah."
Lu Baizhi nodded: "We got tickets for the same instance, the instance of Division 001."
"Um...we were planning to come find you afterward, but we didn't expect to run into you on the train."
Fan Xiao, we're so destined to meet—she didn't dare say those words out loud.
Damn it, I'm still too cowardly. Bai Zhi, you need to stand up for yourself... Lu Bai Zhi encouraged herself in her heart.
"By the way," she asked, trying to start a conversation, "Fan Xiao, did you just come out of a dungeon?"
"Yes, I'm just about to head to Division 001." Fan Xiao nodded. "Since we're going to the same place, let's go together."
Why don't you go back?
Lu Xining suddenly spoke up and asked.
“I haven’t finished with things yet,” Fan Xiao replied. “I estimate it will be a while before I can go back.”
"After Zhi Zi and I finish the dungeon, let's stay in Zone 001 for a while, and then we'll go back together."
Lu Xining said it very bluntly.
"What are you doing staying here?" Nori asked. "You're just friends, aren't you? Why are you cooperating with the Earl's schedule like this? Don't you have your own things to do?"
"Earl? What do you mean?"
Lu Xining glanced at Nori, then at Fan Xiao, somewhat puzzled.
Nori puffed out her youthful chest and said with a hint of pride, "An earl is an earl. You don't even know the earl's identity as a 'noble of the night,' yet you dare to call yourselves friends of the earl... Hmph, it seems your relationship isn't that great."
Upon hearing this, the Lu sisters both turned their gaze to Fan Xiao.
The younger sister looked puzzled, while the older sister seemed thoughtful.
Fan Xiao: "..."
Damn, this is a bit awkward.
He acts childish in front of strangers because they don't know each other and will go their separate ways after leaving the instance. Even if they do interact, it won't be much, so he basically doesn't feel any psychological burden.
But now that acquaintances know about it...
With the thought that "I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed," Fan Xiao said calmly, "It's just a form of address."
"How should I address you..." Lu Xining asked, "I'd also like to use a new way of addressing you, is that alright?"
"What's your name? Sister?"
Before Fan Xiao could respond, Lu Baizhi asked a question out of curiosity.
Lu Xining glanced at her sister: "I haven't decided yet."
She then glanced at Fan Xiao and said, "I'll tell you in private once I've thought it through."
"..."
Fan Xiao always felt that she was making lewd jokes in a subtle way.
But he has no evidence.
"How's it going over there lately?" Fan Xiao changed the subject. "Has anything happened?"
"Aside from the increase in players and the social atmosphere being a bit more chaotic than before, nothing else has happened."
Lu Xining replied, "But there are a few more instances."
“There’s an E-rank dungeon called ‘Fairy Tale Town’ that’s recently become quite famous on player forums. I’ve heard it’s very difficult, but the death rate is zero.”
"Many players have discovered that this dungeon can be easily cleared by spending real money."
"Pay-to-win..."
Upon hearing this, Nori exclaimed in surprise, "There are dungeons like this... Is the dungeon boss a penniless wretch who's never seen money before?"
“Maybe,” Lu Xining said. “Making money out of dungeons, even willing to do favors for players for game currency… While this is good news for players, this dungeon boss must be quite unscrupulous.”
Fan Xiao: "..."
"You can't say that, sister."
Lu Baizhi disagreed, saying, "I've also read the posts on the forum. Many of the posters said that there are a lot of children in that instance, and those children love to laugh and play."
"I think the boss of the 'Fairy Tale Town' dungeon should be a very kind and easy-going character, otherwise where would this kind of atmosphere come from?"
"Yes, my younger sister is definitely more likable..." Fan Xiao was very pleased.
Just then, Lu Baizhi's surprised voice suddenly rang out: "Huh? Sister, you... why are you dressed up?"
Lu Xining's unfashionable clothes had disappeared without her noticing.
Instead, she wore a very cute layered jumpsuit with a slightly shorter skirt that better accentuated her legs.
The girl's legs were encased in silky black over-the-knee stockings, and her shoes had been transformed into a pair of delicate and petite school uniform shoes.
This outfit changed her aura, making her appear both innocent and alluring.
“Before, there were only two of us, and we were outnumbered and outmatched. We needed to disguise ourselves to reduce our presence and avoid being targeted by people with ulterior motives.”
Lu Xining calmly replied to her sister, "The situation is different now. There are more of us, so there's no need to pretend anymore. If you want to change, you can change your clothes."
"Where would I get such convenient clothes and props?"
Lu Baizhi shook her head slightly.
My sister's statement... is very reasonable.
But she still felt something was off.
Is he just trying to fool her?

"Props for changing clothes at will..."
Nori looked at Lu Xining's outfit and her attention was drawn to it: "Hmm... for a mortal, your taste in clothes is not bad, that's commendable."
She herself also likes to wear cute style clothes.
Moreover, the bunch of doll pendants on her skirt looked quite unique.
This combination is great, it's hers.
I'll order one as soon as I get back!
“You have a good eye,” Lu Xining said. “This kind of layered and nested complex structure of clothing is really nice. Tearing it would give you a great sense of conquest.”
Fan Xiao: "..."
"What?" Nori exclaimed in shock, "Tear...why are you tearing it?"
"Humans are animals. Crushing beautiful things can release the animalistic desires in people's hearts, and it can feel very comfortable and intoxicating."
