I, Den-O, the Contract Urban Legend

An indescribable deliciousness burst out from the taste buds, making Suzuko feel an unprecedented emotion surge from the depths of his heart.

Although saury is just a very common dish, the simpler the dish, the more it can reflect the chef's ability.

The combination of crispy fish skin, tender and delicious meat, and secret sauce makes you want to eat this dish bite by bite.

It was certainly worth being happy about gaining a body and solving the problem of existence, but at this moment, Hayabusa was more moved by the fact that he could eat this dish.

“I have to say, it feels good to be alive.”

Although when Suzuko was attached to Naya, he could vaguely feel the taste of food by sharing her sense of taste, it was still not as good as experiencing it in person.

I saw Suozi slowly closing his eyes, chewing slowly, savoring the flavor of the food carefully, and an expression of great satisfaction unconsciously appeared on his face.

"Bliss..."

People know how to lie, but food can't. Hayako really felt the feelings that Sadako wanted to convey.

After tasting such delicious food, Hayabusa suddenly felt that the Inoue family, which was like a devil's den, was not as bad as she had imagined.

Well, I should listen to them and stay here for a while.

……

"Hey, Inoue!"

After dinner, Inoue Ueya, who was covered in bruises, was about to go back to his room to rest for a while when someone called him.

He turned around and saw that the person who called him was Hanako Natsukawa.

"What's up? Want to play with me? How about another day?"

Apart from anything else, Inoue Ueya, who was plagued by bad luck all day long, was not in the mood to play games at the moment.

Hanako shook her head and replied, "It's nothing like that. Come over here for a moment... No, I need your help with something."

For some reason, Hanako's tone seemed a little off. Inoue Ueya frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

The usually fearless female hooligan actually took the initiative to ask him for help. It goes without saying that what she was talking about was definitely a troublesome matter.

It is not known whether the misfortune of the singularity is still in effect, and Inoue Ue does not want to participate in any events for the time being.

“But I refuse—”

Just as Inoue Ueya was about to refuse, Hanako walked up to him and grabbed him with one hand as if she had expected it, then strode towards her room.

……

In Hanako Natsukawa's room.

"I see. You want to borrow money from me for krypton gold?"

Inoue Ueya looked at Natsukawa Hanako speechlessly.

"Sadako gave you some pocket money not long ago, didn't she? Has it been used up so quickly?"

Unconsciously, the former bad girl seemed to be gradually developing into a otaku who was addicted to games.

"To be honest, I've become addicted to a mobile game lately."

Hearing this, Inoue Ue couldn't help but take a deep breath. Recalling the horror of being dominated by various mobile game card pools in the past, cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.

A long time ago, Inoue Ueya had not yet realized that he was a singularity, and his luck was not as bad as it is now. He was just an ordinary person with a little less luck.

Yes, at most you will always get the guaranteed minimum number of cards when you draw them, which is not worth mentioning.

At the same time, this is also the reason why Sadako manages his wallet.

Inoue Ueya shook his head, trying to forget the bad memories that emerged in his mind.

These things weren't the main point. The problem was that many mobile games had in-game purchases several times more expensive than regular online games. It wasn't uncommon for him to spend all the pocket money Sadako gave him in one go. No wonder Hanako asked him to borrow money...

"Captain?"

Hanako shook her head.

"Admiral? Doctor?"

Hanako just shook her head again.

"Or, Master or Traveler?"

Inoue Ueya's frown deepened.

Hanako sighed and replied, "No, that's not it."

Inoue Ue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, and nodded: "That's not bad. Although I spent a lot of money on the barbecue a while ago, if it's not too outrageous, Mr. Inoue can lend you some money--"

Before she finished speaking, Hanako Natsukawa thought for a moment and suddenly added, "I'm a trainer, I train horse girls."

Inoue Ueya's expression froze and he took a few steps back.

"...Well, can I go back to the beginning?"

Chapter 317: A hero cannot escape from the battlefield

Brief introduction, my name is Inoue Ueya, and I am now facing an unprecedented crisis.

“Hey, it’s shipped, it’s shipped!”

At this moment, several cards flashing with rainbow light appeared on the mobile phone screen. Natsukawa Hanako's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and she looked up and slowly approached Inoue Ueya who was not far away.

"Inoue, please help me a little longer..."

Inoue Ueya was speechless. As he retreated to the back, he didn't forget to complain: "Hey, hey, I think you said the same thing not long ago. Do you want to continue to draw after the shipment?"

"Pull, must smoke!"

Hanako Natsukawa said through gritted teeth.

"Of course I'm going to take advantage of my luck and fill up my card slots!"

"Help me get eight more singles... No, five will do. I want to be the King of Luck!"

Hanako is now obviously completely trapped.

There is no doubt that this is clearly a major crisis for Inoue Ueya's wallet.

Inoue Ue couldn't help but sigh. Hanako is now as addicted to drawing cards as he was back then, when he was innocent and hadn't realized his singularity identity.

They firmly believe that "as long as luck strikes, they will get something for their money." If they don't win, they want to get their money back. After getting something for their money, they want to get more. They unknowingly fall into a vicious cycle of spending more and more money. This is the common gambler mentality.

Come to think of it, I saw Hanako Natsukawa looking listless all day today, and that was probably because of the card wreck.

Especially at this moment of transitioning from non-EU to EU, the sudden feeling of joy completely overwhelmed Hanako Natsukawa's mind. I'm afraid she won't give up easily until she has filled up the card.

Inoue Ueya secretly took a deep breath. Mobile games are still as scary as ever.

"I really can't do anything with you. Just this once, give me your phone..."

Just as Inoue Ueya was about to reach out to take the phone handed to him by Natsukawa Hanako, a white hand suddenly appeared from behind and placed it on his shoulder.

"Hey, there's hell ahead, do you still want to continue?"

For a moment, Inoue Ueya paused and subconsciously looked back, only to find that the person coming was Arsen.

Perhaps because the two of them were concentrating all their attention on the card drawing screen, Arsen actually broke into Hanako's room without them noticing.

"The bathroom is now empty. I came here to ask for a bath. I didn't expect you to be hiding here and spending money to draw cards..."

At this time, Yasen was not wearing her usual complicated dress, but a light home outfit. She was wearing a pair of particularly familiar glasses, and there was a slight moisture on her body, as if she had just come out of the shower.

Inoue Ueya's mouth twitched, and he raised his hand to touch his face. He realized that his glasses had been taken off at some point, and he couldn't help but complain: "Why don't you take my glasses away secretly!"

"Let's not talk about such trivial matters for now."

Yasen pushed his glasses up, a blinding light flashing across them. He said softly, "If I remember correctly, your savings have been pretty much gone since that barbecue dinner a few days ago."

"Don't forget there are a lot of blockbuster games coming out soon. Do you really want to spend all your money on in-game purchases?"

"Gu, I..."

Yasen's words hit the nail on the head. Inoue Ueya opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't think of anything to refute.

After all, there is still a big gap between the price of mobile game krypton gold and that of ordinary games, especially the card drawing mechanism of the former is extremely unfriendly to the unlucky guys. It is not impossible to spend the equivalent of more than ten or even dozens of 3A masterpieces in one go.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Hanako Natsukawa gradually came to her senses from her frenzied state and silently took back the phone that she was about to hand to Ueya Inoue.

"Hanako?"

Noticing what Hanako Natsukawa did, Inoue Ue was also a little confused.

"I'd better forget it. I've spent so much money before, maybe I should have stopped..."

Money doesn't come from the wind. If her request would make Inoue Ueya feel embarrassed, Hanako would not continue to spend money.

After a moment's silence, Inoue Ueya sighed. As someone who had experienced this, he could more or less guess what Natsukawa Hanako was thinking.

"...No, you still want to continue, right?"

"Even though Mr. Inoue feels a little sorry for his wallet, I already promised to help you with a few more orders before this, and I won't break my promise!"

Every player once dreamed of becoming the "Lucky King," and Inoue Ue was no exception. Unfortunately, his luck simply didn't allow him to realize his dream, and he couldn't even escape the guaranteed-win fate every time...

Even though his own dream cannot be realized, he can protect Hanako Natsukawa's dream!

Without waiting for Hanako Natsukawa to respond, Inoue Ueya walked up and snatched the phone from her hand.

"A hero shouldn't run away from battle."

Suddenly, applause came from outside the door.

"Indeed, you are worthy of being my contractor. I acknowledge your awareness!"

Yasen nodded in satisfaction, walked up behind Inoue Ueya, patted him on the shoulder, and shouted, "It's really amazing. Even if you feel lost, you can recover instantly. What a dazzling belief!"

"Sigh, to carry out our belief, let's keep going, right now, right now!"

"Ahh, it's coming!"

Inoue Ueya's eyes seemed to have made up his mind at this moment. He gritted his teeth, as if a warrior going to die, and stretched out his trembling fingers to press the screen of the mobile phone.

"Take it, my last krypton gold!"

The situation was inexplicably reversed, and Hanako Natsukawa was stunned for a moment. After she came to her senses, she quickly took action to stop the two people from losing control.

"Hey, stop it, calm down!"

……

The situation happened suddenly, and Hanako didn't have time to stop the two people who suddenly went crazy.

"Hana, Hanako, did you ship it successfully?" Inoue Ueya asked in a trembling voice.

Hanako Natsukawa did not respond. She looked at Inoue Ueya with complicated eyes and nodded silently. The answer was self-evident.

Upon hearing this, Inoue Ueya's eyes turned dark and he collapsed to the floor, motionless. The smile on his face looked particularly peaceful in Natsukawa Hanako's eyes.

Yasen also smiled, muttered something meaningless like "incredible" and "I finally got it", then turned and walked out of Hanako's room.

"By the way, when I went out to buy snacks a while ago, I happened to meet a woman who looked a bit decadent. I heard she was a part-time job agency."

Suddenly, Hanako Natsukawa thought of something and picked up a business card on the desk. Inoue Ue, who was lying on the ground, vaguely saw the words "Akagawa" written on the card...

"Inoue, let's go work together!"
