"His stammering doesn't sound like good news."
"Listen to me!"
"Okay, okay."
"You've been staying at Xiaoye's house for quite a while now, haven't you?"
"right."
"Well, actually, my house is quite big. If you don't mind, you can come and stay at my house. I just need to tell my mom. You can move in anytime you want. I swear I will take good care of you. I have now successfully transformed and have enough strength to protect you."
Speaking of which...
Kaoru Amakawa felt her heart pounding in her chest with excitement. She lowered her head, her face flushed, nervously and anxiously awaiting the other person's answer.
only……
Lorraine thought it was something serious, but it turns out it was just this.
He looked troubled.
"Kaoru, there are some things you may not know. Building a new base is a very time-consuming, financially expensive, and energy-intensive process."
"Huh? What?"
Kaoru Amakawa was taken aback; this unexpected answer left her quite puzzled.
Lorraine explained patiently.
"Since moving into Xiaoye's house, I've spent a lot of time, energy, and money building infrastructure there. Now that it's finally all finished, you're telling me I need to move to a different location? Does that mean all my hard work so far has been for nothing?"
"You're doing infrastructure work at her house? I've been living with Xiaoyao at Xiaoye's house for over a month now, and everything's been the same as usual. Where's the infrastructure work?"
Kaoru Amakawa looked puzzled.
In response to this.
Upon hearing this, Lorraine revealed a proud smile.
"That's because your identities were pre-recorded in the defense system. If it were anyone else, you can let them try to break through."
"ah???"
"Based on the existing defensive firepower network, this was built to apocalyptic standards. Even if a zombie horde were to break out, Xiaoye's house would be completely safe. It has ample reserves of various strategic materials, enough for Xiaoye and me to live in seclusion for eight years."
"Really?"
"You have no idea how much effort I put into that house. This is just the most cost-effective construction plan in my mind. Originally, we should have built more underground tunnel networks, set up more bunkers, traps, and multi-tiered defensive lines."
"Are you crazy?!"
Kaoru Amakawa thought the man was probably ill.
Seeing the other person's astonished expression, Lorraine realized that he might indeed be a bit paranoid. He smiled awkwardly and explained, "Um... I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to. Sometimes, once I start building, I think, since we've already started, why not add a few more features? Later on, I think, since we've already built this far, why not add a little more? And then it keeps going, over and over again, endlessly..."
Kaoru Amakawa remained expressionless.
Lorraine said with embarrassment, "So in the end, I unknowingly invested too much and couldn't stop. I'm really not a construction maniac. I just want to pursue something more perfect. Can you understand that sense of accomplishment and satisfaction?"
"As expected, men sometimes do things that are incomprehensible and unbelievable."
"Shut up! The pursuit of perfection is in every man's nature, something deeply ingrained in our genes. Looking at the whole world, who doesn't want better things? Are we wrong? Where did we go wrong?"
When discussing these topics.
Lorraine argued vehemently and was extremely agitated.
Kaoru Amakawa was speechless. She felt that she was such a fool for worrying that if the other person stayed at Sayo's house, Sayo would take advantage of her.
