Starting with "You there?" is always a clown move.
Seeing Talulah's message, the first thing Qian Yi thought of was Koschei.
Because this undying black serpent was really good at causing trouble. As a crucial part of its plan, Talulah could not be easily given up. Plus, it must have sensed the outside world.
Understanding that if things continued like this, it would sooner or later be dragged out and beaten to death, Koschei decided to take a risk and confront Talulah head-on, to seize her body and carry out its so-called world-shaking plan.
But soon, he realized that wasn't it.
[Talulah]: You there?
[Talulah]: After drinking the milk you gave me, a lot of people in the Reunion Movement got diarrhea. FrostNova has been squatting in the toilet for several hours....
Talulah really wanted to ask if there was something wrong with the milk he gave her, if he had put laxatives in it.
But thinking that Qian Yi didn't seem like that kind of person, she came to ask.
Qian Yi: "..."
You fed milk to a rabbit?
One must know that milk can irritate a rabbit's gastrointestinal tract, causing symptoms like soft stools and diarrhea, increasing the burden on the kidneys, and in severe cases, even leading to kidney failure.
But FrostNova was a Cautus, not a long-eared donkey... ah, no, she was a Cautus. Milk shouldn't cause her to have diarrhea for so long. So it must be because the milk was expired.
Excellent.
Talulah, do you now feel the pain I felt when I had to squat in the toilet for ages because you said expired milk was okay to drink?!
Although he thought this, Qian Yi would of course not admit it.
[Steel 'Lao Da']: It must be Koschei's doing!
[Talulah]: Koschei?
[Steel 'Lao Da']: That's right! It must be that old bastard Koschei who secretly added something to the milk I gave you, wanting to mess with your mind and take over your body! You naturally evil Koschei, I will come and kill you with my own hands!
[Talulah]: I knew it. Just as I thought.
She knew Qian Yi wouldn't do something like that. So the situation was clear. It was all Koschei's doing!
How dare it try to destroy our great friendship!
This is no ordinary black serpent, but an undying black serpent. A heavy punch is required!
"What a Sima old snake!" (TN: "Sima" is a common Chinese insult, literally means "dead mother").
Talulah squatted in the snow, her face cold, feeling the chill from her butt and tail. She began to regret why she had stabbed Koschei's body back then, instead of its ASS.
I miss the luxurious toilet at Raiden Mei's house. It even had a soft seat cushion. My butt wouldn't get cold at all.
"Talulah, did your butt get bitten by a snake?" FrostNova, squatting nearby, asked her companion with concern. But her exhausted look made one think that she should be more concerned about herself than others.
"Where would a snake come from in this icy place? I mean Koschei. I suspect he put laxatives in our milk!" Talulah gritted her teeth.
"...." FrostNova was silent. Actually, when Talulah came back with a case of milk, she had a feeling there might be a problem with it. But Talulah said it was a gift from a friend who had also helped save Alina. Plus, she had never drunk milk before, so she tried it out of curiosity, and the result was unstoppable diarrhea.
So it wasn't Talulah's friend's fault, but that demon Koschei was playing tricks?
She looked at Talulah, her eyes reflecting another figure. Noticing her worry, Talulah smiled confidently. "Don't worry, Yelena. I made a new friend. His Izanagi-no-Okami is as strong as a monster. He's very good at dealing with demons like Koschei. And I've already worked with him to deal with two demons that were just as strong, or even stronger, than Koschei."
As long as Qian Yi attacks, everything will be fine.
[Talulah]: What are you doing now? Are you free? Can you come and help me deal with Koschei?
[Steel 'Lao Da']: I have an 8 AM class tomorrow.
[Talulah]: ?
[Steel 'Lao Da']: I'm a high school student. I have to go to class. And my first entrance exam is coming up, so I have to study hard. I also need to find someone to clean the house. I'll come find you tomorrow after the cleaning lady arrives.
[Talulah]: Okay then. I'll wait for you.
...
The next day, Tokyo. Cloudy turning to moderate rain.
Toyokawa Shoko had landed a big job, a big order in the Ginza district.
One must know, that was one of the most prosperous commercial districts in Tokyo. If you randomly threw a stone there, you could hit a billionaire.
Although these rich people mostly had some quirks, they were indeed generous. Just the task of cleaning the house alone was offered at a high price of one hundred thousand yen. It was as if they didn't treat money as money.
What was disappointing was that the weather was bad today. The pouring rain hit the umbrella, and the raindrops falling from the edge of the umbrella drew beautiful parabolas.
She had already imagined what she would encounter. She would arrive at a luxurious residential complex, the attendants on both sides of the gate would bow and say "Thank you for your hard work," then she would swipe a card to open the elevator and go to the designated floor. Then, under the guidance of a butler hired by the rich person, a woman in a high-slit cheongsam with a snake-like waist, she would begin her work.
However, after arriving at the destination, she was stunned.
Because the expected luxurious residential complex did not appear. Instead, what appeared was a large mansion with a rather classical architectural style. The cherry blossoms from the century-old cherry tree in the garden were falling like rain, hitting the fish pond like a storm.
"Am I still in Ginza?"
Toyokawa Shoko suspected that she was not in Ginza at all, but in a more remote, less economically developed old district of Tokyo. Otherwise, how could there be such a classical building?
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government actually didn't demolish this place that wastes land resources to build a commercial district?
She sighed lightly, thinking that if she had such a house in the Ginza district and sold it, she could definitely pay back her 16.8 billion debt. After entering the living room with the password she had been given in advance, she quickly took off her shoes. Her feet felt slightly cool on the floor.
The house was furnished with solid wood furniture, but the chandelier was a European-style crystal chandelier. The TV in the living room was playing a new anime. A sakura-haired girl of about 1.5 meters was hugging a pillow and watching attentively. A silver-haired young man was sitting at the desk doing his homework.
Perhaps because of the rainy day, his concentration was quite high, and he didn't notice her arrival at all.
Wait, why do these two look so familiar?
"Qian Yi?" she tried to call out the name of the group member she had just met not long ago.
"Oh, it's Shoko. When did you arrive?" Qian Yi looked up and greeted Shoko.
"???" Shoko's mouth fell open in astonishment. After a brief shock, she let out a scream like a groundhog. "Wait, why are you in the same world as me!!!"
"Calm down. This is a common occurrence in the dimensional chat group. It's just a matter of happening sooner or later," Qian Yi said, continuing to write his homework. "Besides, if anyone should be surprised, it should be me. I called for a housekeeping auntie and got you. Is this what they call the law of attraction between dimensional chat group members?"
"I can't argue with that." Shoko, dressed as a cleaning lady, didn't feel there was any problem with her identity being recognized. What really made her uncomfortable was exposing such a pathetic side of herself in front of a group member.
"Since you're here, are you interested in some extra work?"
"I will not wear a maid outfit to clean your house, nor will I step on you with a disgusted expression." Shoko silently took two steps back, but after thinking about the difference in their strength, she silently took two steps forward again.
"No, I mean helping out on Talulah's side."
"Is there extra overtime pay? Are travel expenses reimbursed? What's the approximate final profit?"
"If there are no accidents, we can probably get the gold of a Duke," Qian Yi put down his pen. "And he's a Duke with real power. His total assets might be enough to buy half of Tokyo?"
In an instant, Toyokawa Shoko had taken off her housekeeping uniform, her face firm as she looked directly at Qian Yi. "Captain, when do we depart?"
