Episode 4: Homeless Girls, Part 5
“Hands up!” They all held guns, pointed at us.
It didn’t seem like a show. It looked like these people had come with some sort of purpose.
The downstairs isn’t a CRT TV specialty store.
What are you doing? We don’t have any time machines being researched at home.
Did you come to the wrong set?
“Did you hear me! All of you, hands up!”
You want me to let go just like that? For what reason?
You tell me to raise my hands, so I raise my hands? My hands are currently in the most satisfying place in the world.
“Hoo, did you hear that? Juncheng? They’re telling you to raise your hands?”
“He’s telling all of us to raise our hands, right?”
“Huhaha, you’re the only man here now, so you represent all of us.”
“Then I can’t raise them even more. If I raise my hands, won’t I be selling you all out? As a man/Hold you in my arms.”
“Aah~~~!”
“Heh heh.”
As I spoke, I playfully squeezed again. Lan screamed and hugged me tighter, while Lianbing raised her hand to caress my face, giving my hands more places to touch.
“..Are you not clear about your position yet?!”
Seeing that we were still casually chatting and flirting, the leader of the men in black who had barged into our house shouted again. I even suspected his saliva would splash onto his helmet.
“Even if you shout for help, it’s useless. This area has already been taken over by the ‘Passerby Group’. No one will care about you.”
“Passerby Group–oh, you mean the extras, right?”
“It seems that even without organizations and anomalies, there are still people making money in ‘this line of work’.”
“Simple. As long as you can ‘stand by and do nothing’, pretend to be a mute who knows nothing, and you can earn a considerable income.” People with connections surely want to be in this line of work.
“Really, Juncheng, let’s finish this quickly, or I’ll lose interest.”
The first one to get annoyed was the Young Miss.
It seems she really dislikes being disturbed. Having been interrupted once already, she accumulated some dissatisfaction, and now being interrupted a second time, she must be furious.
“Yes, yes, my dear Young Miss, I’ll resolve the trouble right away.”
Reluctantly, I let go of the two beauties and sighed as I stood up.
Then all the guns were pointed at me. Being targeted intensely–it’s been a long time. When was the last time? It seems to have been during the North-South War, when I accidentally stumbled into a battlefield and became… whatever. It doesn’t matter.
“Did you finally realize the reality? I’m not interested in you. As long as you hand over all the women here, I’ll let you go.”
“Ha, I say, do I look like I’m going to surrender? I haven’t even raised my hands.”
“I’m even in the mood to chat with you.”
“We don’t have time to chat with you. I’ll give you ten seconds to choose…”
“So you’re just passerby characters. If I can be this calm, it’s definitely because I have the capital to show off.”
“Yes, that’s right. I was just about to say that… Who is your employer? How much did they pay you? I’ll give you ten times that.”
My words seem to have piqued the interest of the leader. He said with a mocking tone.
“However, the place you live in doesn’t look like it belongs to a rich person.”
“But I still know the simple truth that you can’t judge a book by its cover.”
“..What makes you believe you can offer us a price that would make us disregard our reputation and betray our employer?”
“I’ve taken a good look at you. I thought you were just some petty thug without any vision, but it seems you’re at least more than that. Don’t you think you should believe her? You came for Lianbing, didn’t you?”
“The Young Miss is the key leverage. To extort a higher ransom, why should we deal with you?”
“You do have good deductive reasoning skills.”
“Your mouth has a point. But do you have the ability?”
“Fine, I’m convinced.
“Let’s discuss your counter-offer…”
“Unfortunately, there’s a premise to all this.”
“As I was about to boast, someone approached me. And as expected, it was Lou Yi.”
“But it wasn’t the person in front of me who interrupted me…”
“What?!”
“Come in. Take off your shoes.”
You didn’t even take off your shoes when you came in, and you dirtied the floor. So Lou Yi seemed a little unhappy.
“Hurry up and take off your shoes, you idiots.”
“What did you say?!”
“Hey, hey, I advise you not to mess with her.”
“Even I wouldn’t say anything about her, but if she’s angry, you won’t have even a millimeter of a chance to survive.”
“If it were zero, you’d still have a chance as thin as a spider’s silk, but if it’s Yi…”
“Let alone a chance to survive, even your next life will be filled with ‘eight lifetimes of bad luck’.”
“….I shouldn’t have wasted my time on these posturing fellows.”
“He’s really joking with him.”
Then the leading muscular man in a tight suit made the worst decision, thinking we were just joking with him.
Yi’s patience had reached its limit.
“Kneel!”
At the command, all the men in black knelt.
“That’s not the power I can unleash from my ‘Spirit’, but Lou Yi herself is the world.”
“In this world without Destiny Power, I have also lost my ability. Unlike Dian Zhen…”
“This is World Order. Unlike mine, which had various limitations and couldn’t do it…”
“It’s truly ‘what you say, what you get’.”
“Past… twenty-one people, grave sin, [Soul Purification].” It was already good.
“But there was no panic, which shows they still have some professional ethics.”
However, when the anomalous phenomenon disappeared, and the lights in the room brightened again, the men in black could no longer remain calm.
Then, the leader, the muscular man who had been standing in front of us, had vanished.
He disappeared without even the process of death.
Without any warning, his existence was erased, bestowing upon him a death that transcended the physical and spiritual.
“That’s no longer ‘his soul’. All information about him has been completely erased, even after reincarnation it will be someone else.”
“Wh-where did you send our leader?!”
“That’s why I told you not to provoke her.”
“It would have been better to just turn around and escape… Having been ordered to kneel by Zero, you two can’t even run away.”
“Sigh, why did you provoke her? You must be tired of living.”
“You… you… go die!”
“That’s no good. There are still children sleeping in the room, so you can’t shoot.”
Thought Acceleration, tenfold speed.
During the accelerated time, my body could still move.
My body is no longer the weak one that couldn’t even move at triple speed.
I walked over to the man about to shoot, broke the finger on the trigger, and then struck his neck with a chop.
The others were all similarly chopped on the back of their necks.
Thought Acceleration released. A total of five remaining men in black collapsed onto the ground.
“Meow, these guys have fainted. Lady Yi, there’s no need for Soul Purification and forced reincarnation, right?”
“…Wipe the floor clean.”
“Yes, yes, I’ll definitely wipe the floor clean afterward.”
*Sigh* You bunch of kidnappers are really something. In the end, I even have to beg for you. How embarrassing.
“Juncheng, aren’t you going to kill them?”
“They are not ordinary people, after all. When the time comes for them to ‘die’, they still will… If I kill them, this world will be entangled with me, forming a deeper karma. It’s not a good thing for ordinary people to get involved with me.”
“Heh heh heh, you’re quite kind.”
“If this can be considered kind.”
“This is kindness.”
“Let it be kindness. It’s just that after watching so many harem animes with indecisive male leads, I feel like kindness has become a derogatory term.”
“Anyway, I’m a scum, so does kindness apply to me too?”
“Talent…” People who are not meant to die don’t die. It’s just that getting involved with me is really troublesome. I don’t want another Yu Jiu to appear.
“Yu Jiu followed me through reincarnation because she loved me deeply. If she were killed by me like this, she would appear again and again.”
“And Yu Jiu loved me so much…” This is a Light Novel.
“I can’t stand it if she’s by my side.”
“Things that need to be understood must be understood.”
“We still need to find out who hired these thugs.”
“Lan.”
“I’ll investigate these people’s origins right away.”
“Hoo, I understand. You know what I mean, as expected of my personal little fox.”
“Just by calling out her name, and Lan took Lianbing away, someone has come knocking.”
“Someone must have seen me driving with Lianbing to this place.”
“I just don’t know which young master has this kind of…”
“Forget about these hired goons. I don’t care about troublemakers. Let’s go.”
“Mm, leave it to me.”
I pulled two fallen killers with one hand, and three with the other, dragging them out the door.
Outside, there was a group of… SoSKxx>. They really said ‘Passerby Group’. It turns out they were just our own people.
I thought they would be as professional as ‘extras’.
“…Troublesome…”
“After all, it’s not an interesting process.”
“Mm, done.”
A few minutes later, everyone was lying on the ground. Including the five who broke into the house,(one disappeared), a total of nineteen people came.
“It’s the kind of number that drives OCD people crazy. Why not twenty? Then there would be a vacant spot.”
“Fortunately, there is such a vacant spot, otherwise I really don’t know…”
“This vacant spot is big enough. They should be picked up if I leave them here.”
“Mm, five at a time, four trips and it’s done.”
“Okay, let’s get to work.”
As I was moving the first batch, I arrived at a dark vacant lot. The sound of clear screams echoed from within.
“Let go of me! What are you doing?”
A woman’s scream came from the darkness.
I dropped the guys I was carrying and silently walked into the darkness.
My good night vision allowed me to see, next to the steel bars of the vacant lot, a muscular man.
He grabbed her arm, and with his other hand, he was undoing his belt.
“Oh, so *that’s* why… I missed one here.”
He eagerly unbuckled his belt and threw it aside. His pants slid down to his crotch, and then his free hand reached out to grab the blonde woman.
I had already arrived behind him. Picking up the belt he dropped, I used the metal end to “swiftly slash” him.
*Clang*. A small piece fell to the ground.
The big man had already fainted from the pain and was foaming at the mouth.
“You get retribution for forcibly entering an H-scene before raising the affection level… Next time, well, there won’t be a next time for you. Eye.”
“Alright, that feels better. All twenty guys are dealt with. I knew it had to be an integer, otherwise this number would be too awkward. Just right.”
“Then let’s go move the other fourteen guys as well.”
Just as I turned to leave the vacant lot, someone suddenly grabbed my sleeve.
“Th-that!”
“Ah.”
It was that blonde woman.
She walked over trembling, her face pale, her whole body shaking. There were injuries at the corners of her eyes and mouth.
“Her complexion was frighteningly pale, her whole body was trembling, there were injuries at the corners of her mouth and eyes, her dress was stained with blood and more tattered than when I saw her a few days ago, barely covering anything. Her pure white panties were torn and lying on the ground.”
_I tried to say, “You’re welcome, I’m a good person,” but my accent was a little off.
“No… it’s not…”
“What is that?”
“I just did something anyone would step forward to do. You don’t need to thank me. Besides, you’re so beautiful.”
“Wouldn’t it be a waste to let this already castrated idiot have you? Isn’t that too much of a loss?”
“Her voice was a little off, and she didn’t seem to be used to speaking Chinese.
“But judging by her features, she doesn’t look like a pure foreigner. Perhaps she’s mixed-race?”
“She only said ‘yes’, which seemed like she didn’t understand what I was saying—or perhaps.”
“I don’t know what she means, so I’ll just ask directly.”
“Miss, if you want to repay me, I’ve already said ‘no need’, okay?”
“The war… … .”
She seemed troubled.
“If you have nothing else, then let me go quickly.”
“What is going on?”
“After I’ve cleaned the floor, I still want to have fun with Lianbing and Lan.”
“Say whatever you need to say quickly.”
“Please let me call you Master.”
“Ah???”
