Was this the legendary "a thief crying thief"?

An Xinghe casually made up an identity for himself and said,

"I'm actually here to tour the city. I got bored in the hotel tonight, went out for a walk, and accidentally ended up here."

When the Slit-Mouthed Woman heard that An Xinghe was only visiting, an inexplicable ache rose in her heart!

So he doesn't live in the same city as me... Does that mean we might never see each other again?!

With that thought, the Slit-Mouthed Woman blurted out,

"Mr. An, it's so late. How about I treat you to something to eat?"

Livestream chat.

[The Slit-Mouthed Woman is treating him to food?! Even ghost stories wouldn't dare write this!]

[Why do I feel like An Xinghe isn't playing a horror game, but a dating simulator?!]

[Same!]

[Other people get tortured half to death by beginner missions! An Xinghe doesn't even have to do anything, and the boss is treating him to dinner!]

[I've learned something! Next time, I'll go win over the boss!]

[Give it up, dude! Unless you have An Xinghe's kind of charm!]

An Xinghe's mission required him to survive for two hours. Although the Slit-Mouthed Woman was no longer dangerous, it would still be boring to wait out another two hours.

So, he nodded and accepted her offer.

The Slit-Mouthed Woman was delighted.

"Then let's go! I know a tofu shop that's really good! You'll definitely like it!"

The Slit-Mouthed Woman led An Xinghe out of the street. After two left turns, they saw a small tofu stall.

The stall owner looked like a child, with a baby face and a large round conical hat.

An Xinghe understood immediately!

Wasn't that the Tofu Monk?

The Slit-Mouthed Woman brought An Xinghe to the tofu stall and called out,

"One bowl of braised tofu."

The Tofu Monk glanced at her and muttered,

"Why do you have time to come eat tofu at my place today, Sli—"

Before he could finish saying "Slit-Mouthed Woman," the Tofu Monk felt her staring him down with a murderous glare!

He could not help but shudder!

The Slit-Mouthed Woman subtly pointed at An Xinghe with her finger, and the Tofu Monk looked over, half understanding.

The moment he saw An Xinghe's face, he instantly understood what the Slit-Mouthed Woman was doing!

This person was way too handsome and refined!

He was like a clean-cut, cheerful, sunny Big Brother next door!

He simply gave off the best possible feeling!

The Tofu Monk forcibly swallowed the rest of his words and said quietly,

"One serving of braised tofu, coming right up."

As a monster, the Tofu Monk's tofu would normally make whoever ate it grow moldy.

But this time, he did not want to do that.

It would be far too cruel to harm such a wonderful Big Brother!

The Tofu Monk found some ordinary tofu, put it into the wok, and quickly made a fragrant, delicious bowl of braised tofu.

He carefully placed it in front of An Xinghe.

"Big Brother, please enjoy."

An Xinghe picked up a piece with his Chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The flavor burst across his tongue, and he could not help praising it.

"Delicious!"

The Tofu Monk became excited when he heard that.

"It's great that you like it, Big Brother! Take your time. If it's not enough, I can make more!"

"Then I'll trouble you."

"Not trouble at all, not trouble at all!"

The Tofu Monk immediately started another batch. He felt that he had never loved making tofu as much as he did now!

After eating several pieces, An Xinghe pushed the bowl toward the Slit-Mouthed Woman.

"It tastes really good. Aren't you going to have some?"

The Slit-Mouthed Woman desperately wanted to agree to An Xinghe's invitation! But when she thought of the mouth behind her mask, she shook her head.

"Mr. An, I'm not hungry. You eat."

A Single Instance Raised Him Four Levels?! Unprecedented!

An Xinghe did not force the Slit-Mouthed Woman. He knew why she would not eat.

He quietly began eating tofu by himself again.

[Player An Xinghe consumed the Tofu Monk's tofu. Experience Points +50] [Player An Xinghe consumed the Tofu Monk's tofu. Experience Points +50]

A string of system notifications kept ringing in An Xinghe's mind! To his surprise, he discovered that simply eating tofu could earn him Experience Points!

And it gave him a ton of Experience Points!

The beginner instance only gave a total of 100 Experience Points!

Yet after eating tofu for a while, he had already gained 300 Experience Points!

At that thought, An Xinghe sped up his tofu eating even more!

Livestream chat.

[This is the first time I've seen someone gain experience this easily!]

[Not everyone gets treated to dinner by an instance boss.]

[Is this the benefit of being handsome? Why am I not handsome?!]

[An Xinghe is already miles ahead of everyone else from the very start of this beginner instance!]

[Do you think An Xinghe might become a top player like Yang Mi someday?!]

[Definitely!]

The Yang Mi mentioned in the Danmaku was one of the earliest players to enter the horror game. She had now become one of the strongest female players.

Although An Xinghe really wanted to eat tofu here for an entire year, grinding his level to 100 before leaving.

The mission only lasted two hours in total.

And since a person's stomach was not bottomless, An Xinghe finally put down his Chopsticks after gaining 800 Experience Points.

The Slit-Mouthed Woman looked at him gently.

"Are you full?"

"I'm stuffed!"

It had now been one hour and fifty minutes since he entered the instance.

An Xinghe stood up.

"It's getting late. I should go back. Thanks for the meal."

"Ah, no need to thank me, no need!"

The Slit-Mouthed Woman's gaze wandered as though she were thinking about something.

Suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, she took out her large Scissors from behind her back!

And placed them in An Xinghe's hands!

"Mr. An, this is the most precious thing I own. Please accept it as a gift! Let it be... let it be proof that we once knew each other!"

An Xinghe twitched the corner of his mouth and wanted to refuse. But when he saw the Scissors' attributes, his eyes lit up, and he immediately accepted them.

[Name: Slit-Mouthed Woman's Scissors] [Type: Weapon] [Quality: Fine Grade] [Effect: Deals considerable damage to both spirits and humans. Damage is doubled when striking the face.] [Can be taken out of the instance: Yes] [Note: The Slit-Mouthed Woman would never give her Scissors to anyone in her life, so those who want to obtain the Slit-Mouthed Woman's Scissors should just give up.]

Livestream chat.

[A Fine Grade weapon from a beginner instance?! An Xinghe is incredible!]

[Other people are happy just to clear their beginner instances! An Xinghe farmed experience and even got a weapon?!]

[The Slit-Mouthed Woman obviously treats her Scissors as a token of love.]

[A maiden's heart! This old man's maiden heart!]

An Xinghe carefully put away the Scissors. After saying goodbye to the Slit-Mouthed Woman and the Tofu Monk, he turned to leave.

The Slit-Mouthed Woman could not help tugging at the corner of his clothes and asked,

"Mr. An, will you come here to visit again someday? Will we have another chance to meet?"
