Foreign Friends and Billiards / What a Lousy Visored One

Then, she opened the tool cabinet next to her and took out a normal-sized, rusty blade. "Your broken sword."

"Oh! Thanks!!"

Cong Yu spoke excitedly, and the moment she grasped the hilt of the sword, the rust on the sword vanished instantly, replaced by a sharp and dangerous aura.

"Doctor! I love you so much!"

Upon hearing Cong Yu's declaration of love, the Doctor scoffed, then narrowed his eyes. "The reason I was able to confirm your identity is because of the seven layers of magic within your broken sword... and now I finally understand why you call it the Sword of the Seven Emperors."

"Frost, thunder, superhuman strength, illusion, holiness, radiance, venom... I can't think of anyone else who could be the venomous one besides you, you 'snake' monster."

As Cong Yu listened to the Doctor's explanation, he admired the doctor's keen insight and ran his hand over the Sword of the Seven Emperors, saying, "You're absolutely right."

With that certainty, Cong Yu shoved the sword in her hand into the snake's mouth in the wall. "How about we go play pool together tonight?"

"..."

"I have other work to do."

As the Doctor said this, she opened Cong Yu's coffee can. "Besides, I haven't had an injection in a long time... and what's the point of me going with you?"

That means they want to come with me.

Having made this judgment, Cong Yu smiled and said, "Diligence is a good thing, but you also need to balance work and rest... Come with me, it's the king's order."

"..."

"Hmph, 'the king's order,' my foot! I've dissected your body countless times, but... since you've said so..."

Cong Yu: "Hmm?"

"Then I shall respectfully comply."

Chapter 127 Foreign Friends and Billiards

"Little Lan, there's a huge package outside. Did you buy anything?"

In response to Yaochuan Guang's question, Lantian Zhu, who was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed and watching TV, tilted her head.

Lantian Zhu felt that she shouldn't be the kind of person who would have spare money to buy things.

Although her salary from last month has already been deposited into her account, if she wants something, she'll only hug it.

He looked at Yaochuan Guang with pleading eyes, hoping she would buy it for him.

Knowing this, Yaochuan Guang didn't say anything more.

"Oh, it seems like Cong Yu- chan bought it."

Such a sound came from outside the door, and then Yaochuan Guang walked into the room, took out a small knife. "There are two large boxes, shipped from overseas as food, probably foreign specialty foods."

Overseas freight? Specialty food?

Lantian Zhu tilted his head, exchanged a glance with Xiao Cui was equally curious, and then went outside to take a look... and saw a very large box at the door.

One box was over a meter tall, while the other was the size of a regular express delivery box, with the delivery slip sandwiched between the two boxes.

Meanwhile, Yaochuan Guang was using a small knife to open a package.

Lantian Zhu pulled out the express delivery slip and looked at the information on it. "From ███, To Cong Yu (Mr)... I don't know where it was sent from."

"The address is here."

"The shipment consisted of a small box of Norwegian salmon and a large box of Fazer dumle... What are those?"

Lantian Zhu, who was asking this question, didn't quite understand. She squinted her eyes, looking calmly at the English she couldn't understand at all. "In terms of pronunciation, is it salmon?"

Amidst the unanswered questions from Lantian Zhu, Yaochuan Guang had already opened the large box, and Xiao Cui peeked inside, finally seeing the contents of the package.

"Chocolate!"

Xiao Cui happily carried boxes of chocolates, helping Yaochuan Guang carry them into the house... and then asked her brother Cong Yu for some.

Lantian Zhu pursed his lips, picked up the small box and went into the house. Listening to the clanging sounds inside, it sounded like canned salmon.

"Wait, let me message Cong Yu- chan and ask."

As Yaochuan Guang spoke, she fiddled with her phone. After a while, she said, "It looks like smoked salmon in a tin box, and some foreign chocolate. Cong Yu said it was a gift from his Norway friend."

As she explained this, Yaochuan Guang clicked her tongue in amazement; it was the first time she had ever heard that Cong Yu actually had foreign friends.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Cong Yu seems to be the type who can easily become friends with others.

"..."

"Was it a gift from a friend, a cartoonist friend from overseas?"

Xiao Cui blinked, and she began to imagine a blonde, blue-eyed Northern Europe comic book author with a flower wreath on her head.

Stereotypes seem a bit too extreme.

However, for a child to know that Norway is in Northern Europe is already a testament to their excellent geographical knowledge.

"Cong Yu said we could try it if we wanted, but the chocolate was quite sweet and the smoked salmon was a bit tough. We don't know if it would suit our tastes."

Upon hearing Yaochuan Guang's words, Xiao Cui immediately raised her hands and cheered, "Yay! Brother Cong Yu, I love it!"

Shouting this, Xiao Cui happily began eating her chocolate.

Lantian Zhu also peeled one open, popped it into her mouth, then paused for a moment before commenting, "Super, super sweet."

Yaochuan Guang expressed her understanding, shrugging, "I've seen videos before that say people in cold regions eat very sweet desserts to replenish their energy..."

As he explained, Yaochuan Guang unwrapped a chocolate. "However, it's good to eat something sweet once in a while, but be careful of cavities—"

After giving Xiao Cui these instructions, Yaochuan Guang stuffed the chocolate in his hand into his mouth.

"..." Then, in an instant, her eyes widened.

Because it's super, super, super sweet.

--

"Do--"

"..." As the ball went into the pocket, the petite Doctor held a cue stick that seemed disproportionate to her size, searching for the right angle while applying talcum powder to the stick.

"It turns out our group also operates casino businesses."

As he chatted with Cong Yu, the Doctor found the right angle and added, "You seem to have a good understanding of the group's core businesses."

Cong Yu drank water as the Doctor spoke.

Because the Doctor had been playing continuously since the start of the game, he had to sit aside and drink water the whole time. "It was discovered by chance."

In response to Cong Yu's words, the Doctor glanced at the strange person dressed as Rabbit Woman with a rabbit hair clip beside him... although she wasn't actually Rabbit Woman.

Because the ears and tail are genuine.

At this moment, the strange man known as "Rabbit Man" is standing to the side, looking bewildered, picking up the ball that has fallen into the pocket.

She's basically a ball-setting girl.

However, the Rabbit Man's eyes were already darting around in circles; he didn't understand or comprehend it.

Why am I just a lowly working-class person?

They actually have the right to serve two cadres while they play ball...

What if the two of them reveal some confidential information? Won't they be silenced by the Doctor or Lord Cong Yu?

I don't want that kind of thing!

"..."

"Did you give her the hair clip?"

The Doctor asked this question.

This was quite terrifying for Cong Yu, who looked astonished. "Really? You even guessed that?"

This can no longer be explained by "observation skills".

"So that's 'it' then? Hmph..."

The Doctor's lips curled into a disdainful smile, "So, for my birthday, you just give me a bouquet of flowers as a flimsy excuse?"

Rabbit Man: "..."

Why did the conversation have to turn to him?

NO! NO! NO!

No!

The Rabbit Man realized that while Cong Yu be kind and approachable, the people around him could be a great threat to him.

He'll be killed tomorrow for stepping into the Doctor's office with his right foot.

The Rabbit Man thought this sadly.

"..." However, the Doctor was not unaware of Cong Yu's personality and habits. So he didn't take it to heart, and instead said, "I've prepared the spare bodies for the Rabbit Man. If you like, I can pick out a few for you from the body bank."

Upon hearing this, the Rabbit Man's head and face immediately turned bright red, just like the red eyes of a rabbit.

The Rabbit Man then stared at Cong Yu, waiting for his answer.

No, that's alright.

As Cong Yu said this, seeing the Rabbit Man visibly relieved, she rested her chin on her hand and watched the Doctor's performance. "Doctor, let me pass."

It feels like the Doctor is about to clear the table.

"It's surprisingly cute that you would say something like that."

The Doctor commented, then missed a shot; the cue ball and the single-color ball she wanted to pocket bounced a few times on the table without going in. "Hmph, a mistake... just consider it a win for me."

That's mine.

Cong Yu made this simple judgment.

Chapter 128 What Kind of Broken Face

[Warning! Warning! Magic energy level -507247! Confirmed to be Monster! Location: West of Wind City, approaching.]

[Confirmed to be a giant Monster! The Guardian Barrier is about to open! Residents are advised to stay in open areas to avoid injury or death from the earthquake.]

[Duplicate! Magic Energy Level -507247! Confirmed as Magic...]

"..." This is the third Monster attack this year...

After the news of the "Half King's Rule" spread in Wind City, the number of strange people causing trouble decreased, except for a few who had awakened on their own.

At least there aren't any high-profile weirdos causing trouble anymore.

Those that cause chaos everywhere are just newly awakened weaklings who can be easily dealt with.

And it seems that after the deaths of the Cockroach Monster and the Mushroom Monster, the 21st Group also lost interest in and ideas about the Wind City.

However, it is worth mentioning that in the previous incident at Wind City High School, the mysterious Monster Group who guided the Monster attack and thus found the location of the Spirit Vein Nodule have not yet taken any concrete actions.

Cong Yu's initial assessment was that they had given up in the face of difficulties.

But it seems that's not the case now...

Regardless, the Monster attacks are far too frequent. Even if "this time" is a coincidence, it's far too coincidental.

Although this Monster is also only a six-figure power level creature.

Since Central City will send professional magical girls to quickly resolve the issue, it probably still doesn't need to be a concern...

"What exactly is their purpose?"

Cong Yu muttered to herself, puzzled, as she leaned back in her chair and watched the park square grow increasingly crowded... People from the surrounding residential buildings were all coming over.

Soon, once the Monster start crashing into the barrier, Wind City will begin to feel noticeable tremors.

To avoid falling or getting injured during this process, people living in high-rise buildings will go to open spaces.

As the square began to become noisy, Cong Yu silently left and walked along the somewhat empty street.

After casually sending a message on Linx to the golden retriever who was worried about his safety and the blue-haired jerk to let him know he was alright...

Cong Yu felt a strong itch on her head.

They might need to develop a brain.

In this respect, Cong Yu cannot be blamed for being slow-witted, because he knew too little "intelligence"... He simply couldn't understand it.
