Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

"Selling Eden's wine glass? Who are you selling it to?"

“Uwaa ...

Hearing the sudden ghostly sound behind her, Padu was so scared that the cat jumped up again, this time even higher.

The can next to him jumped up in fright.

"Meow..."

The big orange cat looked at its owner with dissatisfaction.

Lin Wei, who was standing nearby, was amazed. Is this what a cat looks like when its fur gets blown up?

It's quite cute.

"Oh, Boss Lin Wei, it's you... Really, I was so scared, I thought it was Sister Yiden or Sister Ai Li, I was so scared that the hair on my tail stood up!"

Only after seeing who was coming did Padu breathe a sigh of relief and patted her chest hard, as if to press her heart back to its place that was about to jump out of her throat.

"Boss, you are such a fool. You should at least say hello before visiting our store, so that we can be prepared. What is this called... not losing... the art of hospitality?"

Lin Wei looked at the little cat girl speaking in a series of small words. Her cultural level was even lower than Kiana's, so it was not easy for her to speak like that.

"What did I just hear? Eden's wine glass? Do you have a lost and found service here?"

Lin Wei started to tease the cat.

“Ah? Uh…that…ahahahaha…”

Padu smiled awkwardly, scratched his head, coughed twice, and argued righteously.

"You heard wrong, Boss Lin Wei! This is the wine glass I'm going to sell to Sister Eden. Look at its noble shape, its golden color, and its sparkling gemstones..."

"So you just passed it over?"

Lin Wei continued to tease the cat.

"Boss Lin Wei, you are such a fool! How can you wrongly accuse a good person like this?"

Padu was not happy with this and tried to defend herself with a dissatisfied look on her face.

"This was obviously given to me by Sister Eden!"

"Then why were you so nervous just now?"

Lin Wei was also a little confused. Since it was something you obtained legally, why are you feeling guilty?

"Oh yeah! This was given to me by Sister Eden. Why am I so nervous?"

Paduo looked as if she had suddenly realized something, as if she had been vindicated. She raised her head, ready to feel proud.

As a result, when he looked up, he saw Lin Wei looking at him with a half-smile. His expression froze, he lowered his head awkwardly, and stammered in embarrassment,

"I'm used to it... Hehe..."

Hey, you guys must have purchased a lot of goods, right?

Lin Wei also admired Pado's persistence.

It is obvious that in this paradise, opening a store or "purchasing goods" has no practical significance.

There are only a few permanent residents here, coming and going. What need could there be for commodity circulation and currency exchange?

But she still happily lived the life of a small businessman, buying goods, selling them for money, and then basking in the sun.

Live a very easy and comfortable life.

Lin Wei has always felt that most of the heroes in the paradise of the past were obsessed with the past and unable to extricate themselves. They were really "shadows of the past," just as Su said.

The only differences were with Paddo and Mebius.

One of them is working hard to live seriously for the "present", while the other is still striving to create an "infinite future".

This is truly vibrant life!

"Paduo, there is a question I have wanted to ask you for a long time."

Too much is as bad as too little. If you tease a cat too much, it will become unpleasant. So he began to change the subject.

"Boss Lin Wei, feel free to ask any questions you have! I promise I will answer all your questions!"

Padu climbed up the ladder, patted his chest and promised, then changed his tone and added a little slyly,

"Of course, simple questions can be answered for free, but if it's a complicated matter... there will be a charge!"

Quite cautious, Lin Wei was happy.

"Don't worry, it doesn't involve the secrets of the Paradise of the Past and other information about Yingjie."

Lin Wei immediately dispelled her concerns. Then he imitated what Alicia had done in front of him before, with one hand around his chest and the other holding the handlebars, looking Pado up and down, making her feel uncomfortable.

"I'm just curious, Paddo. Your bangs are so long that they cover your eyes. How do you see clearly? Also, with such long bangs, won't you squint if the wind blows?"

No more pretending, just playing with cats!

"?"

Padu simply gave up, she had never thought about this problem.

I tilted my head and thought about it. This seems to be a question worth thinking about...

She shrank her pupils and looked carefully at the fine hair hanging in front of her eyes. Her bangs were a little long and hung down to the bridge of her nose.

If I think about it carefully, it does block my view a bit. Why didn’t I notice it before?

Oops! It's windy and my hair is flying in the wind. Oh no! You won't squint, will you?

Padu wailed, picked up the cans and hid in the shop, then slammed the door and closed the business.

Lin Wei was not angry after being rejected. Instead, he turned around and left with a smile. The prank was a success!

Another tragic case of automatic transmission breathing switching to manual transmission!

"Very bad huh? I saw it all!"

Alicia jumped down from the high branch, put her hands behind her back, walked briskly to Lin Wei, and issued a "condemnation" to him.

"After all, Padu is one of the Thirteen Heroes. How could you tease her like this?"

"But you don't look like you want to seek justice for her. Tell me, where is the popcorn hidden?"

Lin Wei doesn't believe her at all. Ai Lixia is definitely enjoying it.

Relying on his height advantage over Alicia, he leaned over to look at her hands behind her back, and sure enough, there was a camera hidden in her hands.

This guy must have been taking a secret photo just now.

"Oh my, how can you peek at girls? Really, boys should be more gentlemanly!"

Alicia seemed to have discovered some secret. She put on a stern face and taught Lin Wei a lesson seriously.

"Don't do this again next time! I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first."

Then he turned and walked away without stopping.

Lin Wei looked at Alicia's back speechlessly, too lazy to pay attention to her.

Angry? I don't believe you!

"Eden Eden! I found something interesting again. This time I secretly recorded it. Come, I'll show it to you!"

In the lounge of the hall, Alicia pushed open the door excitedly and waved the camera in her hand towards Eden, who was sitting on the sofa and immersed in vinyl music.

"Hehe, this thing I bought from Padu is really useful~?"

........................

"Are you bullying Padu again?"

As soon as the new day's training session began, Hua just glanced at Lin Wei and asked directly.

"Ah? How did you know?"

Lin Wei was a little confused. Was it Pado who came to complain, or was it Ellie who came to inform?

"I didn't know that in advance, but your expression seems familiar."

Hua shook his head, as if he saw through Lin Wei's thoughts, and began to explain.

"It's just that Alicia sometimes makes a similar expression, usually after she's completed a prank."

"Among the heroes you met in the paradise of the past, only Paduo meets similar conditions, so the answer is not difficult to guess."

"..."

Lin Wei looked at the girl in front of him with some eyes opened. Hua Ye 50,000 years ago was just honest in nature, but his brain was still as smart as ever.

"It's not bullying, I just thought it was fun and went to play with the cat."

Lin Wei told Hua the whole story, which was also a way of sharing happiness.

After hearing this, Hua's mouth twitched and he looked at Lin Wei expressionlessly.

How can there be such boring people?

Lin Wei felt a little embarrassed by her expression. "Don't look at me like that, it will make me look like a fool."

"It's strange. Padu obviously has a strong intuition and can judge danger, disadvantages and other factors beyond imagination, but why can't she notice your approach?"

Hua recalled the scene where Lin Wei had "successfully captured" Pado with the Key of Mimicry, and felt somewhat confused.

This is indeed a problem, and Lin Wei agrees with it. With Pado's extraordinary luck and crisis intuition, how could she fall into his hands again and again?

"Is it because I'm too weak that Padu can't sense the danger?"

Lin Wei stroked his chin and thought for a while, then asked tentatively.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Hua Shen nodded in agreement. Lin Wei's face darkened when he heard this. It was outrageous to slander someone in such a serious manner.

"Another possibility is that you didn't have any intention of harming her, and your aura was weak, so you were able to bypass Padu's spiritual perception."

Hua thought about it carefully, and while adding some details, he also stabbed Lin Wei in the back.

(ノへ￣,)

That Fu Hua outside is more talkative than you!

Lin Wei covered his chest where blood was gushing out and complained silently.

"Okay, enough chatting, let's start today's training. The way of martial arts is endless, so don't slack off!"

Hua looked serious and stopped chatting.

She pulled out a brand new telescopic baton from behind her back, held it in her hand, grasped the handle and swung it with a "snap". The baton was more than one meter long and looked quite scary.

Lin Wei's face turned dark. He didn't even know when Pado upgraded Hua's equipment!

Chapter 8: Eden Hua

"Are you all right, my friend?"

Lin Wei exited the memory device and returned to the hall. As soon as he entered the room called "lounge", he saw the elegant woman sitting in the center of the room. Her long burgundy hair looked particularly elegant under the light.

Even though there is no one else here, that figure, even if he is just sitting there alone, still gives people a feeling of being the center of attention.

She is indeed the big star that Kevin and Su were obsessed with.

Even though it was not the first time they met, Lin Wei was still amazed every time they met.

I remember the first time I encountered Eden in Paradise was when I was on my way to visit Qianjie and accidentally entered the area where Eden was.

She was very different from now. In the eternal evening sunshine, she was leaning against a piano that looked very valuable, looking slightly tipsy and raising her glass to invite someone to drink.

"Hello, Eden. Sorry, I hope I didn't disturb your mood."

Lin Wei was referring to the melodious music in the room at the moment. It was Eden's favorite vinyl record, and she was immersed in it at the moment.

I don't know if it was because the song had a low volume to begin with, or if it was just the aftermath of the song's end, but he didn't hear it until the moment he pushed open the door.

"Ah, no need to apologize, my friend. Don't worry about disturbing me. After all, art is like this. It never refuses the gaze of the admirers, right?"

Eden's voice is always so elegant and lazy, with a hint of calmness and composure as if he has withdrawn from the world after seeing all the glitz and glamour of the world.

"...Although saying this may make me appear timid, Miss Eden, I... don't understand art, and I can't give a unique introduction. If I have to say anything, I can only say 'nice'."
