Chapter 202

~6 min read 1,140 words

Sanba Rika, praised by Li An, felt her pale face turn red once again, and again, and yet again.

The number of times her face turned red today was probably more than in the entire decade-plus of her life combined.

Unable to bear the atmosphere, Sanba Rika changed the subject and asked, "Where is this? Your home?"

"Not my home. This is a villa in a high-end residence in Shibuya. I couldn't resist; leaving it empty would be a pity, so I've taken up residence for the owner," Li An said with a smile.

Sanba Rika's mouth twitched; what difference was there between this and being a thief?

But it didn't matter; her Ghoul identity was already known to the CCG, so she definitely could not return to her previous residence.

She could not return to her old school either, nor could she see friends she had known before.

As long as the CCG wasn't stupid, they would definitely send people to watch her residence, school, and friends.

The moment she appeared, they would immediately swarm her.

"Living in someone else's house forever isn't a solution. How about we move somewhere else? For example, Nerima Ward. I heard it's relatively peaceful there. We can find a place to live there and change our identities," Sanba Rika suggested.

"Are you afraid the CCG will come for you?" Li An teased with a smile.

Sanba Rika couldn't help but clench her fists; she really wanted to beat this guy up.

Why did he have to speak in such an infuriating way!

Seeing Sanba Rika's fists tighten, Li An stopped teasing her and said with a smile, "Going to the 20th Ward is fine too, but let's rest here for tonight."

"Mm, I'll listen to you!" Sanba Rika nodded, then got up and left.

She really didn't want to talk to Li An anymore; she would be driven to death by anger.

The villa had many rooms; Sanba Rika chose the master bedroom on the second floor with a balcony.

This bedroom not only had a balcony, but the windows were also very large.

The natural light during the day was excellent; at night, to avoid being seen from the outside, the curtains had to be drawn.

The main reason Sanba Rika chose this bedroom was a lack of security.

If something happened in the middle of the night, she could easily escape via the balcony, or break the window and jump out.

The window of this bedroom was a single pane of transparent glass, and it was a floor-to-ceiling window without metal frames, making it very easy to break.

After watching TV for a while, Li An waited until Sanba Rika had rested before getting up and leaving the villa.

As always, he teleported to outer space and began absorbing and fusing the eternal rules and concepts of this world.

Compared to slaying the Crimson World, the eternal rules and eternal concepts of this world were much weaker.

There was no help for it; after all, this was an ordinary world without mystery.

Even the Ghouls were merely special products of biology.

In almost an instant, Li An had completed the absorption and fusion.

From then on, there was one more respawn point.

After fusing the eternal rules and concepts, Li An did not rush to return immediately; instead, he continued to sit cross-legged in the void of the universe, absorbing the endless dark energy.

The night passed quickly.

At six thirty the next morning, just as the sky was brightening, Li An had already teleported back to the villa from outer space.

Sanba Rika had not slept well in the first half of the night; it had been light sleep.

She only entered deep sleep in the second half of the night, so she woke up very late; it was not until eight forty that she walked out of her room.

Seeing her hair as fluffy as a chicken coop, Li An couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at?" Sanba Rika asked, somewhat annoyed.

"Nothing. Here, take this." Li An tossed a set of clothes to her as he spoke.

Her school uniform had been hacked to shreds by a Quinque during her battle with Arima Kiyotaka the previous night; it was definitely impossible to wear it outside.

This was a new set Li An had created based on the style of her school uniform.

Sanba Rika took the clothes and insincerely said, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome!" Li An readily accepted her thanks.

Looking at Li An's smug face, Sanba Rika didn't know why she felt so angry; she even thought, "If only such a handsome person were mute!"

After washing up and changing clothes, Li An and Sanba Rika left the villa.

Originally, Li An intended to teleport to the 20th Ward, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

The two took a taxi and headed for the 20th Ward.

In the car, Li An and Sanba Rika both sat in the back seat.

Sanba Rika asked in a low voice, "Do you have money?"

Li An shook his head.

Sanba Rika widened her eyes and said, "If you have no money, why did you take a taxi?"

Her money was all in her previous residence, but since her Ghoul identity was exposed, her former residence and property were definitely confiscated and turned over to the state.

Now she was penniless, and Li An had no money either.

If neither of them had money, what would happen when they arrived at their destination and couldn't pay?

Just thinking of that scene made her feel extremely ashamed.

However, Li An smiled mysteriously and said, "Although I have no money, I can perform magic tricks."

Sanba Rika was somewhat speechless.

Magic tricks were deceptive tricks; it was impossible to truly conjure objects out of thin air, let alone conjure money!

However, Li An clenched his right hand and then said to Sanba Rika, "Blow a breath!"

Sanba Rika rolled her eyes at him and paid him no mind.

Li An said again, "You blow a breath, and I guarantee I'll conjure money!"

Sanba Rika's eyes became doubtful, but she still blew a breath at Li An's right hand.

A fragrant breeze swept over his face, and Li An couldn't help but sigh, "Is the breath of a little fairy sweet?"

Miwa Kasumi's small face flushed red; she twisted hard against Li An's waist and said, "Are you trying to die?"

Yet Li An's waist was unharmed, while Miwa Kasumi's small hand turned red.

She couldn't twist it; she simply couldn't twist it at all!

The toughness and defensive power of that skin were more terrifying than even a Ghoul's!

Even if one were to strike with the finest Quinque weapon, it would still not be able to break through.
