Re-live your life and start speedrunning

When she saw Li Re returning alone and safe, she was more certain of this:

Confirmed that the gap between them is getting bigger and bigger!

If this continues...

Will she be abandoned?

No, if you think about it carefully, this is actually natural - Lu Baixi suddenly remembered that she first approached Li Re because she thought Li Re was very powerful and that he could help her survive in the mysterious "paradise" and find a way to solve the side effects of her superpowers.

And now, the side effects of her superpowers - which were identified as 'Psychic-type Siren' abilities by the Paradise Career System - have been initially eliminated. She has also long been able to control this powerful charm that is strong enough to make both the enemy and the friend lose control - in this case, if Li Re really doesn't plan to continue to lead her... then she has no reason to refuse, right?

But this result is obviously not a bad thing for her.

There is no benefit at all for players with too big a gap in level to stay together. On the contrary, due to the uneven difficulty of the tasks they accept, they will incur dangers far beyond the current stage.

But why am I so unwilling and reluctant to give up... Just thinking about this possibility makes me feel uncomfortable...

'Why else? Didn't I tell you that you like Li Re?'

'Another Lu Baixi' said this in the girl's heart.

Bai Xi followed Li Re silently outside the gate of Jiangcheng University, walking through the shadows cast by the dense trees on the asphalt road towards the middle school next to the university. She pursed her red lips and did not respond to the words in her heart.

I just looked at the tall back of Li Re walking in front of me.

Of course she knew what her 'other self' said...Although she was embarrassed and nervous, that was the indisputable fact.

But that doesn't make sense.

If she couldn't help, she just couldn't help - even with her understanding of Li Re, Li Re would never despise her for this, nor would he reject her because she was weak - instead, he would protect her more considerately.

but,

Been through so much.

Lu Baixi didn't want to be a useless vase beside Li Re anymore.

Instead,

Why not ask to leave first...

There is already a 'Yin Bai' beside Li Re.

Maybe I don’t need myself anymore!

"Leave? Are you crazy? I won't agree to that - I haven't done enough to 'trample' Li Re yet!"

This thought just popped up in Lu Baixi's mind.

'Another Lu Baixi' made her heart agitated and extremely dissatisfied...

"Bai Xi."

Extremely abruptly!

A voice called her name.

Lu Baixi suddenly came back to her senses from her self-sorrow and loss and was stunned for a moment. She raised her gorgeous gem-like eyes and stared blankly at what was in front of her - the road was lined with shady trees, and the scattered sunlight penetrated the gaps between the branches and leaves and fell on the face of Li Re in front of her. She didn't know when he stopped moving forward and turned to look at her, and the reflection of his handsome face was slightly glowing.

Lu Baixi lost consciousness for a moment.

Then he heard Li Re sigh helplessly and said, "You're also starting to riddle people, right?"

"Riddler?" Lu Baixi blinked, looking puzzled.

"I don't say anything about my worries. I just hide them." Li Re put his hands in his pockets, smiled and talked freely. He didn't wait for Lu Baixi to respond again, and said directly: "Are you worried that the gap between you and me is too big - worried that you can't keep up with my pace, worried that I will abandon you and even decide to take the initiative to leave 'Ghost Shop'?"

"Well..."

Lu Baixi opened her eyes slightly, and her beautiful face couldn't help but show a look of astonishment. She even subconsciously touched her face and wondered if her thoughts were so obvious? And her subconscious action also confirmed that Li Re's "guess" was correct!

Li Rexin wondered, is this girl still trying to hide this little thing from him, a 'psychic player' who knows people's minds well?

He didn't even need to guess from the body language.

Just by simply controlling the psychic perception, he could feel Lu Baixi's anxious thoughts.

Yes.

Li Re had already noticed Lu Baixi's inner confusion.

It's only now that I've found the opportunity to 'enlighten' him.

So he asked, "Want to escape? Is it that easy?"

"Don't forget, you are the only boss and largest shareholder of 'Ghost Shop' besides me. Yin Bai is just your employee."

...He thought to himself that you are the 'wings' I reserved - if there is a hatchet in the future, the one you gave me will be indispensable!

And even if we exclude all utilitarianism.

After spending nearly two months together, Li Re already had deep feelings for Lu Baixi - their relationship was not so thrilling, nor so tortuous, but the process of getting used to each other's existence was itself a kind of emotional accumulation.

Li Re didn't want to let Lu Baixi leave.

He hated this kind of Riddler state that went around in circles even more - thinking back to the past, he had been tortured by this kind of Riddler plot a lot!

so...

"You can't escape."

Li Re said bluntly.

This sentence fell,

Before Lu Baixi could react, something suddenly jumped out in her sight the next second.

[Scarce one-time consumable items·Permanent team card·Already bound (Li Re-Xiao Yuan)]

She was stunned.

Her red lips were slightly open in surprise - the surprised expression was so adorable.

She wanted to say why.

Why would you use something so precious on yourself...isn't that a waste?

But Li Re paused, looked at Lu Baixi who was full of astonishment and hesitation, and continued: "I know what you want to say, but you can't - you have no right to refuse."

"not to mention."

"Do you really think you can't keep up with us? Aren't you underestimating yourself a little bit?"

"You have a talent that none of us can match—"

What talents do I have?

This thought just popped up in Lu Baixi's mind, but was quickly drowned out by another voice that sounded nearby.

"really."

A crisp voice sounded, as if responding to Li Re's words - Lu Baixi subconsciously turned her head to look behind her, and as the breeze swayed gently, two figures appeared behind her at some point.

One before and one after——

The figure behind was wearing a long skirt and scarf, looking like a maid, with red eyes and a serious posture under her short silver hair.

The figure in front has her skirt fluttering, and the corners of her long-sleeved top are blooming like flowers on a warm day.

The man raised his eyes and looked at Lu Baixi.

Then he jumped over Lu Baixi's shoulder and looked at Li Re: "So, are you really going to let her take over my position as 'Junior World Inspector'?"

"As long as she is willing - she is a perfect candidate, isn't she?" Li Re responded, grinning at Lu Baixi, and then said:

"Becoming a world monitor doesn't mean losing freedom anyway! Even if she becomes a monitor, she will still be herself."

"What do you think, Princess Mononoke—"

Chapter 167 The Most Suitable Candidate

The figure that appeared behind Lu Baixi at this moment was undoubtedly the 'Junior World Inspector' Ghost Princess and her maid in the court outpost that Li Re and Yin Bai had met on the 'way' returning to reality from the Super Power World copy - at that time, although Li Re refused to take over her position and become the new Junior World Inspector, he also left his contact information with her.

Although Li Re himself does not intend to become a "world inspector" and does not want a giant behind him, that would make him miss many "opportunities".

However, this does not mean that you have to give up.

Li Re was still quite interested in the "court".

He is not alone.

The purpose of leaving the contact information of the Ghost Princess was to see if he could let someone close to him take over this position - regardless of other things, the benefits of the position of "World Inspector" are absolutely obvious!

Later, during the disaster mission in which the dungeon invaded reality, he felt the loss in Lu Baixi's heart and thought that perhaps he could let Lu Baixi, who was obviously lagging behind among the three current people in the "Ghost Shop", take over the position of inspector... She was a psychic player, but she had already become a "psychic player" long before that - coincidentally, the successor that the ghost princess wanted was also a "psychic player".

Based on this inference, it seems very appropriate!

Let Lu Baixi take over the position of World Supervisor,

It can help her get rid of the current predicament of falling behind.

It also allows Li Re to take such a position without affecting his own "seeking death".

Kill two birds with one stone.

Why not! ?

It turns out.

This is true.

The ghost princess's skirt fluttered in response to Li Re's words, and she narrowed her eyes slightly in the clear and warm sun. She turned her ruby-like eyes to Lu Baixi again, and glanced at this beautiful girl in a JK costume.

Then he said, "It is indeed very suitable... No, it should be said that it is very, very suitable."

"If I'm not mistaken, your ability is to 'charm' everything that exists, right?" asked the ghost princess.

Lu Baixi, who was already stunned by Li Re's sudden use of the 'Permanent Team Card' and now a little nervous because of the appearance of the ghost princess and her servant, turned sideways and looked back, and nodded subconsciously. To be honest, she didn't understand what had happened yet, but she believed in Li Re very much and believed that Li Re would never hurt her.

So she said cautiously, rather nervously but knowingly: "My ability is the Siren..."

"Siren? Named after the extremely beautiful female demon in mythology..." Princess Ghost blinked: "No wonder!"

No wonder what...?

"No wonder you are a natural born 'psychic player' - a natural 'ghost tamer'!"

This time, it was not the ghost princess who responded to Lu Baixi's confusion, but Li Re. He took a step forward to Lu Baixi's side, his hands still in his pockets, and raised a relaxed arc at the corner of his mouth: "Haven't you noticed yet?"

"Your ability to control the 'Wind Chime' is not a matter of luck - when you were in the fast food restaurant before, the Wind Chime showed a great liking for you. Even further back, when you were in the ghost town, your ability could have an effect on unconscious low-level evil spirits!" This was something Li Re had discovered before.

If not for this, Li Re wouldn't have been so confident in calling the Ghost Princess over.

He was very confident in Lu Baixi - confident that she would be able to satisfy the Ghost Princess!

A natural born ghost rider? Me?

Lu Baixi touched her cheek, still a little bit unbelievable...

"Li Re is right."

The ghost princess gave a positive answer: "You are a natural ghost tamer - your ability is so great that even evil ghosts cannot stop you - use this ability to enslave evil ghosts, and you don't even have to fear the backlash from the spirits after you enslave them!"

In between these conversations,

Princess Mononoke did indeed seem quite satisfied.

She looked at the beautiful girl in front of her with satisfaction and thought that this was indeed a suitable candidate - the world she monitored itself needed a highly matched "psychic player". Although she had said before that she had made up her mind to let Li Re take her place, now that she saw Lu Baixi, she suddenly changed her mind.

Because Lu Baixi is more suitable than Li Re!

Even though Lu Baixi's current strength is very, very weak,

Without even bronze authority, theoretically speaking, he is not qualified to become a world inspector.

But her high affinity for the supernatural can help her grow quickly after becoming a world monitor - she only needs to find a few evil spirits from the supernatural world she monitors for her to control perfectly! This is much more fulfilling than simply finding a strong person to take over her position!

Of course, the Ghost Princess also felt that her previous decision was not wrong - if she had not given up on Li Re, how would she have known that there was such a suitable candidate around Li Re?

God knows how surprised she was when she received the contact information that Li Re sent to her at the court outpost! She was so surprised that she immediately entered this reality through the "Inspector" authority.

"Then let's get back to the point." Princess Ghost said after a moment of self-admiration, "Are you willing to take my place and become the new generation of 'World Inspector'?"

"Answer according to your heart. Don't worry, I'm here and no one can force you." Li Re also reminded.

At this moment, the sunlight was alluring, the breeze was blowing, the warm sun was swaying, the shadows of the trees on the roadside were lush, and the staggered and overlapping spots of light floated across the girl's beautiful face like floating clouds. Lu Baixi, who was listening to the words between Li Re and the Ghost Princess, seemed to have just come back to her senses - she came back to her senses, chewed over the words of Li Re and the Ghost Princess carefully, and finally understood her current situation.
