What can we do?

"Haha, it's nothing, we're just trying to make a living, I haven't even thanked you for the tip yet!"

Hearing Ling Mengxue's concern, the delivery girl immediately smiled broadly and waved her hand dismissively, "Young man, you probably don't know, but tonight's delivery fee alone is enough for two months' salary. I'm overjoyed, don't worry."

The woman chuckled dryly and scratched the back of her head. She could tell that Ling Mengxue was concerned about her, and it seemed that she was from out of town and had just learned about the situation in 'Happy Town'.

But who wouldn't like a handsome and kind-hearted young man?

She was incredibly touched when she heard that, okay?

"Why don't you... come in and have a seat?"

Ling Mengxue secretly used her 'Eye of True Sight' to investigate and found that the other party had no ill intentions, so she casually made a polite remark.

She still knows too little about this town. If she could ask a local, it would definitely make things much easier.

The girl hesitated. Her inner devil urged her to come in and sit down, but worried about the late hour, she forced back her excitement and smiled, reminding him, "No need, little brother, I have to hurry back. It's too late and something might happen. Remember not to go out at night; people die in town every night because of that guy..."

"Okay, could you please take the rest of the food to the next room as well? My friend is there." Ling Mengxue nodded, not trying to stop her.

"No problem, enjoy your meal, and please remember to leave a five-star review!"

"..."

Soon, when the air quieted down again, Ling Mengxue's smile faded, and she fell into deep thought.

Is there any pattern to this Murder Demon's killings?

One person killed per night? Or more?

Would you kill someone you bump into on the street at night?

Ling Mengxue muttered to herself, a variety of thoughts surfacing in her mind, leaving her somewhat perplexed.

Suddenly, another strange idea popped into my head.

"If I were to wander the streets late at night like this, would I be targeted by Murder Demon?"

"Logically speaking, this already constitutes a form of provocation."

Given her status, she's considered a stunning beauty in this world. There's no reason for the Murder Demon to abandon her. Maybe she should go out and try her luck tonight?

With this in mind, Ling Mengxue carried a large bag full of food to the balcony.

With a cool breeze blowing, she moved a small table over, laid out a simple mat, and sat down on the floor.

"Happy Town is quite large. For average players, skipping the main quests and surviving until the end of the dungeon is relatively easy; there's really no danger there."

Ling Mengxue calmly put on her gloves, picked up a fried chicken leg, and took a bite.

Golden flaky pastry encases tender, marshmallow-like meat, rich yet not greasy, with tender, flaky thigh meat that is fragrant and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

In three words: fragrant, spicy, and crispy!

"I rarely eat fried chicken, but I never expected it to be so delicious and satisfying. It's like I used to be reluctant to eat it..."

Pair it with a sip of 1982's "fat otaku happiness water," and you'll feel absolutely blissful.

"Hey? Big brother, what a coincidence! Are you out for some fresh air too? Eating fried chicken? Can I have some?"

Hearing the sound coming from the opposite balcony, Ling Mengxue subconsciously looked over and saw that the little girl, just like her, had brought out a small table to enjoy her dinner.

"Got it."

She grabbed the wrapping paper from the table and tossed it to Xia Keke without much hesitation. The latter, her eyes sparkling, caught it by standing on tiptoe.

There's only half left; eating too much fried food isn't good either.

Although that's what she thought, it's certain that this wasn't what she truly felt.

Ling Mengxue paid for the hotel accommodations and takeout, and she didn't mind; it was her sense of responsibility as a guardian.

Besides, what if such a cute little girl gets scammed and loses all her money?

"Big brother, I have some otherworldly fried noodles here~ Do you want some? Let's eat together, okay?" Xia Keke blinked and sat on the cushion in a duck-like posture, looking like a delicate little doll, exuding innocence and cuteness.

After saying that, she covered her mouth and chuckled mischievously, "If you want to eat, you have to shout a slogan, otherwise you won't get any."

"There's such a thing??" Ling Mengxue was stunned for a moment, then became interested and smiled, saying, "Then tell me, isn't this slogan 'Xia Keke is the prettiest'? 'Xia Keke is the cutest in the world'? 'Xia Keke the number one mascot in the world'?"

"No, no! I'm not that narcissistic, hehe--" Xia Keke smiled brightly and shyly, covering her rosy cheeks with her two fair and delicate hands, seemingly very embarrassed.

Ling Mengxue wasn't in a hurry. She glanced at her sideways, propped her head up with one hand, and said with an unchanged smile, "Then tell me."

"It's... an encounter in another world, enjoying delicious food to the fullest!"

"??" "So you're one of them too..."

"Could it be that big brother also...?"

The two stared at each other, looking at each other blankly; the scene was slightly awkward.

Ling Mengxue didn't say anything more. She turned around, picked up the beverage bottle, and silently poured herself a glass of lemon-flavored soda.

Looking at the bubbles floating at the bottom of the glass, she felt a little dizzy.

Sometimes, she would imagine drinking and laughing like Zhao Ping and the others, and she felt it was quite cool. Unfortunately, she was allergic to alcohol, and the doctor said it was a matter of her constitution and there was nothing that could be done.

What can I do if I can't eat any foods containing alcohol?

Let's make a cold salad~

"Get some rest. Staying up late is bad for your health," Ling Mengxue said casually as she finished packing her things.

However, she herself often stays up until one or two in the morning, so she doesn't seem to have the right to criticize others.

Xia Keke sat on the ground, looking somewhat bewildered. She had wanted to share the noodles, so why had the person left?

However, she was still very happy talking and chatting with Brother Duskfall.

"My brother feels so kind and warm~"

Xia Keke fiddled with the cutlery, muttering to herself, and after quickly finishing her dinner, she packed up her things and returned to her room.

In the next bedroom, Ling Mengxue took a quick shower, dried her hair, turned off the light, and prepared to go to sleep.

Her thoughts were inexplicably jumbled, and she decided against going out to look for that serial killer.

I've just arrived in a new place, with no clues or leads. Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'll get a good rest tonight and recharge.

She remembered there was a notice board at the central square of Happy Town when she passed by it today; she could go check it out tomorrow...

At dawn, as the sun rose, sunlight streamed in through the east window, filtering through the delicate lace gauze curtains and casting dappled pale yellow spots that fell upon a bed that had already been made.

Early in the morning, Xia Keke was still asleep, Ling Mengxue tidied her clothes and went downstairs.

She held a hundred-yuan bill in her hand, intending to go and see if there were any breakfast vendors nearby.

As soon as I went downstairs, I saw the receptionist standing there, talking to a little boy. She looked like she was giving him a lecture, scolding him. "Tell me, did you go to your female classmate's house again last night? My friends saw it! How many times do I have to tell you? It's dangerous for a handsome boy like you to be out in public! Even with classmates, it's not okay, understand?"

"I know, sister, but she's been very kind to me and didn't have any bad intentions..." The little boy lowered his head shyly, swaying his body as if he had suffered a great injustice.

However, the latter remained expressionless and became even angrier, hands on her hips. "Sigh, why don't you understand? She might just be trying to win your favor, and at the right time she might ask you to be her boyfriend, or even do something worse!"

As she spoke, she took out her phone and, in front of her younger brother, pulled up a news article. "See? A 15-year-old boy trusted a female classmate too easily, and in the end..."

"..."

Not far away, Ling Mengxue stood silently watching, swallowing hard, somewhat dumbfounded, unsure of what to say...

There was nothing more to say.

As she passed the entrance, the receptionist greeted her, but she barely heard her and left the hotel with her head spinning.

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do!"

Ling Mengxue shook her head, deciding not to think about it too much, but her face still felt a little hot.

"Hey, did you hear? It seems three more people died last night, and one of them was a streamer. Rumor has it he died at home!"

"No way? That pervert is so brazen now? He's even breaking into homes and killing people?!"

"Tsk tsk, I have to say, I've watched that streamer's live stream. She's quite pretty. It's a pity, such a handsome man has such a short life~"

"I don't know what those people at the police station are doing. It's been so long, and they still haven't caught a murderer... Huh??"

"What's wrong?"

"There's a handsome guy over there! A really good-looking one!"

"Where?... Holy crap, fuck your dad! What a handsome guy!"

In Happy Town, on a certain long street, pedestrians came and went in a constant stream.

As Ling Mengxue weaved through the crowd, she had just managed to glean a few details when she instantly became the center of attention again.

Words like "handsome guy," "beautiful girl," "little brother," "contact information," and "want to hook up" echoed in her ears, leaving her completely confused.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

"Sorry, I don't have room to move!"

As visibility increased, even traffic police got involved, and the roads began to be cleared in an organized and disciplined manner.

A handsome man is a source of trouble...??

Ling Mengxue seemed to vaguely hear a certain word, and she was instantly stunned.

What the heck?

Is it wrong to be good-looking?

I'd rather keep making the same mistake!

Ling Mengxue's distress was understandable. When observing someone, the first thing that catches the eye is their appearance. People with good looks naturally feel a desire to get close to them.

How can you judge a person solely by their appearance?

What if you encounter a "green tea" girl who only uses her looks to deceive people's feelings?

Enough said, we're all visual creatures, right?

After buying two ordinary breakfasts, Ling Mengxue quickly slipped away to a less crowded spot, used her Spatial Teleportation, and instantly disappeared into the long street.

Fortunately, Spatial Teleportation Array had been set up in the hotel room beforehand; otherwise, things would have been much more complicated.

She thought everything had calmed down, but as soon as she returned to the hotel, the scene before her left her stunned.

She suddenly appeared in the room through the invisible magic circle, only to find that she wasn't the only one there!

Xia Keke, dressed in her pajamas and wrapped in a blanket, jumped over from the other side of the balcony, pushed open the window, and walked in, just in time to witness this incredible scene of a person suddenly appearing out of nowhere!

In her hands... she was carrying two hot breakfasts!

The two stared at each other for a while before Ling Mengxue awkwardly put down her breakfast and said in a nonchalant tone, "Do you know that if this were a hotel, breaking into someone else's room would be considered trespassing?"

"I'm sorry, brother, I did it on purpose... No, no, no! It wasn't on purpose!"

Xia Keke stood there, somewhat at a loss, her cheeks slightly flushed. She hesitated, unable to speak, and gently tapped her two index fingers together. "I knocked on the door this morning but no one answered. I was worried something had happened to my older brother, so I thought I'd come in to check..."

"That's it?" Ling Mengxue raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised, and reached out to ruffle her hair. "Alright, thanks for your concern. Just consider it a joke. You took it seriously."

"How did Brother Duskfall do that just now?" Xia Keke relaxed a little, then her face was full of curiosity.

Is it magic?

A magical transformation!

'Spatial Teleportation' is a divine skill that ordinary players could never possess. Even those Destiny Engraver need to reach the Middle Tier to even begin to master dimensional skills and abilities.

So, it doesn't make sense?

Ling Mengxue handed her the food but didn't directly answer her question.

I don't know how to explain this, should I just pretend to be clueless?

"I can Spatial Blink."

Sitting in the chair, she drank her juice and spoke in a flat tone, as if she were just recounting an ordinary little thing.
