In the quiet and deserted shop, only the sound of rapid breathing echoed.
"No, I can't do it anymore, Mr. Fang Zheng..."
The blonde girl's face flushed, her mouth slightly opened, exhaling a fragrance like orchids. She looked at Fang Zheng behind her with a pleading expression, and Fang Zheng held her shoulders and smiled slightly.
"It has come to this, do you want to give up?"
"But...I can't hold on any longer..."
Tita's slender body trembled slightly, as if she had reached her limit.
"Relax, don't think about anything, just do what I say."
"Well...I'll try my best."
Hearing Fang Zheng's voice, Tita's face turned slightly red, then she clenched her teeth again, raised her head, and then...
“Beep, beep, beep—!”
"Ah, I failed after all!"
Looking at the words [Game Over] on the dance machine in front of her, Tita sat down weakly.
“This game is really difficult.”
"It does exercise my athletic ability and reaction nerves, but it's great to be able to reach this level for the first time."
Fang Zheng patted Tida's shoulder, indicating that she didn't need to be so depressed. After that, Fang Zheng accompanied his first guest to tour the entire video game arcade. What attracted Tida's attention were the claw machines, dancing machines, and the simulated mecha cabin next to them.
The little girl had a lot of fun, but...
"It's almost time for you to go home."
Fang Zheng glanced at the sunset outside the window. Although he was planning to open an arcade, he didn't intend to make it into a bad game hall filled with gangsters like in his previous life. Although there was only one customer, Tida, today, Fang Zheng believed that it wouldn't be long before this place would attract many customers.
Of course, for a little kid, he can’t go home too late, right?
"Ah! It's already this late!!"
After hearing Fang Zheng's reminder, Tita looked up and looked out the window, and was immediately shocked. Then she hurriedly got off the dance machine and picked up the backpack she had placed next to her.
"I'm so sorry, big brother, I have to go back, otherwise grandpa will scold me..."
As she spoke, Tida put on her backpack, but at this moment, a heavy object fell out of her bag and hit the ground with a "bang".
Fang Zheng lowered his head and saw a thing lying on the floor that was much larger than an ordinary pistol. It looked a bit like an enlarged Doraemon air cannon. If Fang Zheng remembered correctly, this thing seemed to be called a guided cannon, which was equivalent to an RPG in this world.
“Hey hey hey…”
Tita smiled at Fang Zheng embarrassedly, then picked up the guided cannon and stuffed it back into her bag. Then she quickly walked to the door and waved at Fang Zheng.
"Thank you, Mr. Fang Zheng. I had a lot of fun today. I will come again tomorrow!"
After saying this, Tita pushed the door and left, while Fang Zheng stood there, silently watching the girl carrying the RPG with her leave her own guidance workshop.
Um…should I call the police?
Just when Fang Zheng was seriously considering whether he had received a little terrorist, suddenly, a somewhat charming voice came from his ears.
"Oh, sir, is that lady your prey? You are really a greedy person. We already have one..."
"You're back? Enaya."
Hearing the voice, Fang Zheng turned around and saw a girl with long dark blue hair wearing a tights and carrying a bow on her back standing there with a smile on her face, staring at him with a charming expression.
She was the last person who followed Fang Zheng here, and she was also the eldest sister Enaya among the four girls.
"Well, I'm back, and when I came back I saw you, sir, making a girl gasp and do some shameful actions in the empty hall. For the sake of your reputation, I didn't show up."
"It's just playing the dance machine."
Facing Enaya's answer, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes helplessly. Enaya was no longer the lonely ghost who wanted to leave this world and die as soon as possible like when Fang Zheng first rescued her from the society. Instead, she gradually became cheerful. However, sometimes, her behavior made Fang Zheng a little speechless.
Among the four girls around Fang Zheng, Anjie and Fei are obviously more obedient, while Ling and Enaya are both more naughty. However, their development directions are different. Ling is more like a little devil who occasionally plays pranks, giving people the feeling that she is an innocent version of Xiao Hei.
As for Enaya...she has a more sinister temperament. Seeing her smiling face now, she looks unusually gentle. People who don't know the inside story would definitely think she is a well-educated lady. However, Fang Zheng knows that this is just her disguise.
"It looks like today's hunt went well?"
"Yes, sir, the bow blade you modified is very easy to use, with good accuracy and stability."
"That's fine. Tell me if you have any questions."
Fang Zheng nodded. As the oldest and most thoughtful of the four, Enaya had already planned her future life. She would follow Fang Zheng and act as a killer. Of course, this was also Fang Zheng's idea. He also planned to set up a secret organization. Specifically... like the Brotherhood, fighting violence and upholding justice and peace?
Well, that's about it.
According to Fang Zheng's plan, Fei will become a guerrilla fighter. If Fei finds something during her guerrilla journey that she cannot solve, she can inform Fang Zheng.
For example, as a guerrilla fighter, Fei encountered a noble who was doing evil during her journey, and as a guerrilla fighter, Fei had no way to do anything to him. Then she could inform Fang Zheng about it, and then Fang Zheng would send Enaya to deal with it.
Of course, this so-called "brotherhood" is still just a prototype in Fang Zheng's mind, and the specific situation will have to wait and see. Of course, Fang Zheng does not plan to let Ling and Anjie join now, one is that they are younger, and the other is that Ling's parents are still alive. If she gets angry for one or two years, she can't get angry again for three or five years.
In Fang Zheng's opinion, Ling will return to her parents one day, so it is impossible to drag her into the pirate ship.
Because of this, Enaya is now honing her skills under Fang Zheng's guidance. Although she is not as talented as Ling, she is also quite talented. Now Enaya has begun to try to kill monsters alone outside Chase City. Because of this, the number of monsters around Chase has decreased a lot recently, and the wanted monsters have disappeared - well, this may be a very confusing thing for the Guerrilla Association.
At this moment, Anjie, who was wearing a maid uniform, came down from the second floor and greeted the two.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, Sister Ennaya, dinner is ready."
"Okay, let's go eat now... Enaya, go and lock the store door."
"Are you closing the store so early?"
"I can't help it. After all, Chase's nightlife... Let's just leave it at that for now."
Fang Zheng shrugged helplessly. The nightlife in this world is not that rich, especially in the Orbital City of Chase. Compared with those entertainment cities, it is even more so. Generally, after nightfall, everyone basically eats dinner and goes to sleep. In addition, Fang Zheng's video game entertainment city has just opened, and there is no publicity. Many people don't even know what this Orbital Workshop does - is it because the sign is too inconspicuous?
Enaya obediently closed the shop, and then a group of people went to the restaurant on the second floor to eat.
Anjie's cooking skills are quite good. She has volunteered to be Fang Zheng's maid and now has excellent cooking and housework skills. However, compared to the delicious meal tonight, everyone is more interested in the fact that there are no customers in the Guidance Workshop. Ling also took the initiative to propose to dress up as bunny girls with a few other people to distribute flyers to introduce customers to the store - but was decisively stopped by Fang Zheng.
Imagine a group of teenage girls wearing revealing bunny girl outfits, holding flyers and saying to passers-by on the street, "Would you like to come and play with us..."
Well, Fang Zheng guaranteed that the first person to come to his door would definitely be a cop.
By the way, why is it a bunny girl? Ling, where the hell did you come up with this idea?
"Because I've seen my dad being dragged into a bar by a bunny girl before, and he drank quite a bit of alcohol."
“…”
If Ling goes back, Mr. Harold's family will be broken up and he will face the dilemma of divorce.
Fang Zheng silently lit a candle for Harold in his heart.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Fei returned to her room with her notebook, with a sad face. In the end, she still didn't finish her homework. According to Ling, Teacher Eluma punished Fei to copy her homework ten times.
Well, Fang Zheng said that it was a good job.
Who didn’t go through this when they were a kid?
It’s good enough that I didn’t hit the palm of your hand with a ruler.
However, just as Fang Zheng was lying on the bed and was about to open his personal terminal to enjoy his video collection, suddenly, a series of rapid knocks on the door rang out.
"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom."
What's going on?
Fang Zheng reluctantly closed the video of Shion bathing that he had just opened, walked out of the room, went down the stairs and came to the hall. At this moment, the girls on the second floor also walked out of the room one after another. Fei was still holding the Blade of Mercy in her hand...
"It's none of your business. Go back to your room and do your homework."
Fang Zheng glanced at Fei and silently gave the order, and Fei lowered his head and returned to his room dejectedly.
"Brother, you are not in debt, are you? Is the creditor here?"
Ling was also nervous at this moment and grabbed the corner of Fang Zheng's clothes and asked, while Fang Zheng reached out and touched Ling's little head.
"Don't worry, it should be a guest."
"Guests? But we are closed."
"Maybe the other party is in a hurry."
Compared with other girls, Fang Zheng certainly understood who was knocking on the door. It was not the "friendly person" who came to collect debts as Ling imagined, nor was it a gang leader who came to collect protection fees, but a gray-haired Mediterranean old man.
It seems that the rabbit really came to the door on its own initiative.
Although this rabbit is a little old...
