Bai Yuze was stewing a new dish in the kitchen, while Kushida Kikyo was lying in her room upstairs.
She was tired after some exercise, but Bai Yuze was still full of energy, mockingly celebrating his victory.
However, a person needs to eat; if Kushida Kikyo were to lose weight from hunger, Bai Yuze would be the one with the greatest loss.
While stewing the dish in the kitchen, Bai Yuze pulled out his phone and sent a message to Horikita Manabu.
Although there were trading places in The Strange World, Bai Yuze didn't know where they were, so he could only ask someone he knew.
"You want to go to the trading market in The Strange World? Why?"
"I'm going there to rob it!"
"???"
Bai Yuze's mouth twitched.
He was going to the trading market, not to trade; was he going to pick up junk?
"So, do you know where it is?"
"The location isn't fixed, but you can inquire with the school, which will cost 100,000 points as a consultation fee."
"That expensive? Are they robbing me?"
"You get what you pay for.
The school will send someone to accompany you to ensure your safety."
Even if the market in The Strange World wasn't under the jurisdiction of Advanced Nurturing High School, the people backing Advanced Nurturing High School could make those desperate outlaws tremble.
Unless they planned to stay in The Strange World forever, rashly attacking Advanced Nurturing High School staff or students was simply courting death.
"Then it's worth it.
How do I consult them?"
After a while, Horikita Manabu sent a phone number and a screenshot of a person's business card.
"Just call this number.
As for the points, he will come to collect them in person the next day."
"OK."
Bai Yuze looked at the name on the business card: [Yamamoto Koichi].
Just by the surname, he knew that the family had some connections...
Bai Yuze turned off his phone screen.
Regarding whether to go to the trading market, he decided to formulate a detailed plan.
Adventuring wasn't a long-term solution, and besides, he already had plans for tomorrow.
Bai Yuze went upstairs, and just as he was about to knock, Kushida Kikyo's angry voice came from inside the room.
"Baka! Hentai! Urusei! Shine! You only know how to bully me! Just you wait! See how I'll teach you a lesson when you're asleep!"
Bai Yuze immediately activated his Level One X-Ray Vision.
Bai Yuze categorized his X-ray vision ability into three levels.
Level One could penetrate walls, clothing, and obstacles.
Level Two could penetrate flesh and directly see internal organs.
Level Three allowed him to directly observe the opponent's bones.
It should be noted that the levels do not need to be cumulative; one can directly select different levels for observation.
When selecting for the first time, the energy consumption for each level is consistent.
After the first selection, an additional second selection will incur the energy consumption of two levels simultaneously, and so on.
In other words, the level Bai Yuze chooses first will affect the duration of subsequent selections.
Specifically:
First time: 60s
Second time: 30s
Third time: 15s
Through his X-ray vision, Bai Yuze saw Kushida Kikyo, naked, punching a pillow.
This wasn't because of his X-ray vision, but because Kushida Kikyo was already naked...
What? You want to know where Kushida Kikyo's clothes went?
Bai Yuze glanced at the soaking wet clothes on the floor and fell into contemplation...
At this moment, Bai Yuze noticed Kushida Kikyo secretly stuffing something under his pillow.
This not only made Bai Yuze curious, but how she pulled out that item alone made him wonder.
If 'Approach to Science' were to film this, it would probably take several episodes...
Oh! No! They couldn't film it... it wouldn't pass censorship...
Bai Yuze nonchalantly pushed open the door.
Seeing Kushida Kikyo's mischievous smile, he lightly coughed a few times.
Kushida Kikyo immediately turned around, her panic clearly visible.
"You... what do you want?"
"What do you mean 'what do I want'? Aren't you going to eat?"
"Ah? Eat...! Of course, I'm going to eat! I'm almost starving to death! You bad guy, you didn't even say stop!"
"I held back, otherwise your next meal would have been breakfast!"
Bai Yuze felt he had underestimated his combat power.
If he had gone all out... his next meal would probably have been dinner the next day!
"What? Do you want me to carry you down to eat, or bring it up to you?"
"What do you think?"
Kushida Kikyo turned her face and pointed to the thoroughly ravaged clothes on the floor.
Seeing this, Bai Yuze had nothing to say.
After bringing the food to Kushida Kikyo, he prepared to leave the room.
"Wait, where are you going?"
"I'm going downstairs to shower and sleep, what's wrong?"
"Are you coming back?"
"No, I'll just sleep in your room."
"No! Absolutely not!"
Kushida Kikyo immediately became anxious.
If Bai Yuze didn't stay in the same room as her, how could she carry out her revenge plan?
Originally, she could have launched a night attack, but now she was sore and weak all over.
Forget a night attack; she even struggled to get out of bed.
"Why? Do you have some secret that can't be seen?"
Bai Yuze revealed a playful smile, curious to see how Kushida Kikyo would try to keep him.
"Uh... how can a girl's room be casually given to others to stay in?"
"But our relationship isn't 'others,' is it? Could it be that little Kikyo has always treated me as an outsider? Then I'd be so heartbroken!"
Bai Yuze finished speaking, clutching his heart, looking utterly heartbroken!
Having spent so much time with Kushida Kikyo, Bai Yuze had unconsciously learned her passive-aggressive tricks.
A boomerang hitting oneself is never a pleasant experience for anyone.
Kushida Kikyo was choked by Bai Yuze's words.
This familiar tone, this suffocating statement, it was so familiar!
It sounded like he was using her own lines!
"Uh... actually, it's not like that... it's just that my room has some things I can't let you see..."
"What things!"
"Oh! Don't ask! It's so embarrassing!"
Based on Kushida Kikyo's words and her embarrassed expression, Bai Yuze instantly figured out what was in her room!
"Oh! A fitness girl, are we?! You know to use a massage stick to relax your muscles!"
Bai Yuze didn't look at Kushida Kikyo but kept his eyes on the floor.
Kushida Kikyo buried her head in the covers.
To carry out her plan, she had sacrificed her good name.
There was nothing in her room; it was just a lie she told to make Bai Yuze stay.
She buried her head in the covers to prevent Bai Yuze from seeing through her lie by observing her facial expressions.
She decided!
Later, she would vigorously kick Bai Yuze in the face, preferably making him kneel and lick her feet!
Unfortunately, the devil is always one step ahead.
Kushida Kikyo racked her brain but couldn't have imagined that the other party would simply stop pretending!
Regarding Kushida Kikyo's lie, Bai Yuze had already seen through it.
During their conversation just now, he had used his X-ray vision to look into Kushida Kikyo's room.
Indeed, apart from some clothes, there was nothing else.
This made him even more curious about what Kushida Kikyo was trying to do.
