This thing can be programmed... and I can practice my mechanical modification skills underground while I'm at it. Zhou Xiao lay on the simple bed, holding the mechanical core he had obtained from the treasure hunter.
I'll just handcraft a Gundam then...
Just as he was putting away the mechanical core and preparing to have a quick dinner, he suddenly felt the wardrobe behind him move slightly.
"?"
Zhou Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, feeling a bit strange. He then opened the wardrobe and found it completely empty, with only a few metal hooks nailed to the wooden board.
Did I see it wrong?
Zhou Xiao closed the cabinet door and prepared to go downstairs. Just before he went downstairs, he vaguely saw his cabinet move again.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Xiao remained silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered that people had been discussing things like the cabinet demon before he went upstairs.
He stroked his chin, then silently disassembled the cabinet panels one by one and placed them on one side of the room.
Now there are no cabinets left.
Perfect.
After finishing all this, Zhou Xiao closed the door and went downstairs to eat.
The food in Panyan Town was only so-so, after all, the town was almost completely cut off from the upper districts, so it was already a blessing to have something to eat.
After Zhou Xiao tasted a plate of braised beans, he noticed a girl with dark blue hair near the Goethe Hotel. The girl seemed to be looking at something from time to time.
Seele.
Zhou Xiao recognized the girl from the Lower District Earthfire Organization at a glance.
Um...
It doesn't seem to be much bigger than March 7th.
1.5 March 7?
Zhou Xiao suddenly felt that using March 7th as a unit of measurement was quite standard. After dinner, it would be his private time.
When he's not on the train, he has more leisure options in his private time, such as taking a leisurely stroll or enjoying the murky honey-flavored drinks in Panyan Town.
Looking at the viscous and turbid liquid in the cup, Zhou Xiao's mouth subconsciously secreted saliva.
Is this thing really a specialty of Rocky Town?
Why does this look even darker than Himeko's coffee?
Adhering to the principle that money already spent should not be wasted, Zhou Xiao gulped down the liquid in the cup in one go.
Bacilli and microbes!
Zhou Xiao burped and thought this stuff was suitable for March 7 to try.
What does it taste like?
It's like aloe vera juice, slippery and sticky like snot.
Still following...
Zhou Xiao put down the cup and noticed Xi'er with her blue-black hair out of the corner of his eye.
We've been walking for a while.
He then discovered that the girl, who seemed to come from the earth's fire, had been following him all along.
Could it be that Di Huo has become so powerful and influential?
Wouldn't even one more outsider notice?
Zhou Xiao stroked his chin, then led Xi'er down a secluded path. He wanted to find out exactly what Xi'er was up to.
The way back was a bit complicated, but navigating these dark alleys was something Lost Owl was very good at.
In a dead end, Xi'er was trapped inside. Just as she was about to go out, she saw Zhou Xiao standing outside the alley.
"Did you need something?"
In the pitch-black underground, with no light source, Zhou Xiao keenly faced the trash can to Xi'er's left and spoke to it.
“...”
"Who are you talking to?" Xi'er raised an eyebrow slightly as she looked in the direction Zhou Xiao was talking to.
Perhaps because she had lived underground for a long time, she was more sensitive to the dim light environment underground, and that's why Xi'er was able to see Zhou Xiao's figure.
"With you."
I'm here...
“...”
Hearing Xi'er's words, Zhou Xiao looked slightly embarrassed, then adjusted his posture and remained calm as if nothing had happened.
As long as I don't feel embarrassed, it's others who will feel embarrassed.
"What do you want from me?"
"Kunfeng, is that right? Di Huo has already set its sights on you, you unregistered person. Come with me." Having been discovered, Seele didn't hide her true feelings and spoke frankly.
Her original mission was simply to keep an eye on Kunfengzhe...
“Kunfeng Zhe…” Zhou Xiao remained silent.
"You want to capture Kunfeng?"
I guess so.
"What does your Earth Fire wanting to capture Kunfengzhe have to do with me, Jifengzhe?" Zhou Xiao said that Kunfengzhe was just a rumor from the outside world, and his own nickname was Jifengzhe.
"You are... a Galeblade?" Seele paused, finding it odd. "You didn't go to the fight club to battle today?"
“That’s the Kunfeng Zhe, I am the Jifeng Zhe.”
"Did you get the wrong person?" Seele was a little unsure.
"Then they must have contacted the wrong person."
"Then why haven't I seen you before?" Seele asked again.
"There are so many people in Panyan Town, how could you possibly have seen every single one of them?"
“Indeed…” Seele nodded, then said to Zhou Xiao, “I’m sorry, Gale…”
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I thought I was being followed by bandits or vagrants, but it turned out to be Di Huo..." Zhou Xiao quickly shook off Xi'er's suspicion and prepared to leave.
He hadn't gone far when Seele, who had taken out the small photo from her pocket, realized something was wrong.
Although the equipment used to take the photos was a bit old and the photos weren't very clear, some features could still be vaguely seen. After carefully comparing them with the Windwalker in her memory, Seele immediately realized that she seemed to have been tricked.
"That guy!"
Seele drew her long-handled scythe and charged out.
"You bastard! You dare to lie to me!" Xi'er was very fast. Her turn was her turn, and other people's turns were still her turns. This led to her catching up with Zhou Xiao very quickly.
Faced with the aggressive Xi'er, Zhou Xiao could only say... this girl is a little smarter than March 7th, but not by much.
Seele seemed determined not to hold back, slashing her long-handled scythe at Zhou Xiao without hesitation. Zhou Xiao remained calm, extending his left hand, slightly bending his index finger, and flicking it outward. A blade of air, invisible to the naked eye, effortlessly knocked Seele to the ground.
Seele, who had collapsed to the ground, stared blankly at the scythe that had broken in two from its handle for a second.
It just... broke?
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
Am I weak?
Am I really that weak?
Seele fell into self-doubt.
Zhou Xiao, who was not far away, was also somewhat dumbfounded when he saw a straight cut on Xi'er's flat abdomen, from which blood was still seeping out.
One-finger flick... is that amazing already?
He used the finger flick as a way to teach people a lesson, and it wasn't very powerful. But this time, it was beyond his expectations.
I've gotten stronger again?
Zhou Xiao quickly touched his hair.
Um.
He's not bald yet.
...
As for Seele's scythe...
Zhou Xiao glanced at Xi'er's dazed expression, and the first thought that flashed through his mind was... she wouldn't ask me to compensate her, would she?
