Volu 4: High School Arc - “I” Co to Find You~
As he spoke, Lu Haochen took a sip of iced green tea and continued.
“Secondly, there's the ti limit—seven days. That gives you plenty of ti to explore. In other words, no matter what, the APP will definitely provide enough clues during these seven days. And once you can’t find that thing within seven days...”
“I’ll die.”
Looking at Lu Haochen, who found it a bit hard to say, I helped him finish the sentence he wanted to speak.
What Lu Haochen said was very true.
I didn’t think it through carefully last night, but looking back now, everything matched what he had said.
Unable to use any props, a seven-day ti limit, and the need to find it/him/her—these three points combined had clearly conveyed one aning.
Fail to find it within seven days, and you die.
And the final special rule, which was directed specifically at —that devour rule—judging by the reward quantity above, this ti’s monster had likely already exceeded S-rank.
As ntioned before, the monster and task levels didn’t always match exactly.
Like this ti, the task gave plenty of ti.
I had a full seven days to search for clues, so the difficulty was lowered to a certain extent.
However, the inability to use any props in the mission had, in another way, increased the difficulty.
Maybe… it wasn’t that props couldn’t be used, but rather… props were useless against this monster!
In other words, this monster should be extrely powerful, or... bizarre!
And that last rule, I believed, was ant for use after I "found it/him/her in advance."
In other words, if I could find it within the seven days, then I’d have the chance to fight it.
But if I couldn’t find it within seven days, then sorry—certain death.
At that thought, I... suddenly regained my appetite!
Damn!
Even if I die, I’ll die full!!
Seeing wolfing down food, Lu Haochen looked completely astonished, but he still subconsciously picked up a bowl and chopsticks and started snatching food from .
When I saw this guy actually dare to snatch from , naturally… I sped up my eating.
As I ate faster and faster, his face got more and more anxious, snatching dishes from in a flustered and irritated manner.
But... as he gradually got full, a big smile actually appeared on his face.
It was different from his usual smile.
This one was… genuine happiness from the heart.
“Haha~ I give up, I can’t beat you…”
We had only eaten about half the food when this guy threw down his chopsticks, placed his bowl on the table, his mouth full of oil.
Not even caring about cleanliness, he rubbed his sowhat rounded belly, plopped onto a chair, and laughed loudly.
“You really can eat, huh? How does your tiny body hold all that?”
“Don’t worry about it. Haven’t you heard girls have dinsional stomachs? Ordinary girls have one. I’ve got eight!!”
I glanced up at him, then lowered my head and continued eating.
“How co you’ve got seven more?”
Lu Haochen asked like a curious baby.
“Because my country has eight major cuisines!”
I answered as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Pfft! Hahaha... hic!”
A burst of laughter echoed through the room, ending in a hiccup.
“Speaking of which... hic! N-no, excuse ...”
Lu Haochen’s face turned a little red.
He looked like he felt embarrassed hiccupping in front of ?
“It’s fine. There aren’t many who can eat like . I’m not surprised.”
“Uh... anyway, hoo... speaking of which.”
Lu Haochen had just spoken half a sentence when a hiccup surged up.
He quickly and forcibly held it back, then hurriedly picked up his drink and took a huge gulp to suppress it.
Only then did he continue.
“Why aren’t you scared at all? You do realize you’ll die in seven days, right?”
Suppressing the hiccup in his belly, Lu Haochen finally asked his question.
He had asked this before, but my answer back then might have been different from what it was now.
I straightened my back, swallowed down the food, looked at Lu Haochen, and quickly chewed the stuff in my mouth...
Have you seen a hamster?
Anyway, in the reflection of myself in Lu Haochen’s eyes, the "" I saw... looked pretty much like a hamster.
Both cheeks were stuffed full of food, puffed out, and the girl's mouth was still moving rapidly.
Who would've thought that wolfing down food would unexpectedly co off as a little cute?
I had to admit, Liu Yunyan really had a good foundation.
Back when I was Zhang Yiwei, if I ate like this, people would definitely call a “reincarnated starving ghost.”
I swallowed the food in my mouth, pulled out a pack of wet wipes, oh~ the wipes for wiping the mouth and “wiping the mouth” were from two different brands.
After wiping the oil from my lips, I picked up the chopsticks and drew a big circle on the table, looking straight into Lu Haochen’s eyes.
“If I don’t eat, I might die. If I do eat, I might still die. So… do I even need to say the answer?”
“I got it.”
Lu Haochen just stared at like that, his eyes filled with amusent.
“What the hell are you smiling at! If it were you, you'd do the sa. Live or die, I still gotta eat. Might as well eat happily!”
“Haha! Right! Makes perfect sense!”
Lu Haochen slapped the table, laughing heartily.
But just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks, a hiccup surged up.
“Hic~ You eat… I really can’t eat anymore…”
I rolled my eyes at this guy, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating again. While eating, I said:
“I already told you I’m not like other people, so don’t even think about comparing yourself to . My appetite alone is eight tis yours.”
“You’re not kidding… tsk tsk tsk, with this appetite, who could afford to feed you?”
“Tch! I… I don’t need anyone to feed , alright? I’ve got more money than I can ever spend. See this? Just a mobile ga, and I waved five grand into it without blinking!”
“Oh? Let see, what ga is it? Isn’t this F-sothing-O?”
Lu Haochen casually took the phone and glanced at the gacha banner I was pulling from.
“Kama? You spent all that money just to pull this character?”
“Ah… yeah!”
“… Don’t tell you don’t know what this woman’s personality is like?”
“I do know! She can…”
Uhh… crap, I forgot I’m a girl now.
What does it an to say I like SSY?!
The mont the word “can” ca out of my mouth—like “can lick”—I couldn’t continue.
Say what?
That she’s lickable?
“Can what?”
Lu Haochen looked at with a puzzled face.
“Can show off!”
After hesitating for a long ti, I finally ca up with this non-excuse of an excuse.
Lu Haochen was stunned for a mont, then looked at the phone, then at , and couldn’t help but smile bitterly and shake his head.
He handed the phone back.
I put down the chopsticks, took the phone back, and naturally, for the rest of the al, he just watched eat.
In no ti at all, I cleared the entire table.
Lu Haochen could only watch on with a helpless face.
“I’ve really never t a girl as fearless as you…”
“Tch! You little brat, how many won have you even seen?”
“You talk like you’re way older than .”
“I… tch!”
I thought about it but decided not to say more.
At least for now, since I didn’t know him that well yet, I had to avoid letting him learn anything too important.
