Chapter 186

When he walked to the bedside, he saw a clear bulge in the quilt.

Looking closely.

It was Haibara Ai lying on the bed.

She covered her chin slightly with the quilt.

Opening her ice-blue eyes, she looked at Hoshino Ki calmly.

Hoshino Ki: ...

He sighed, quite helpless.

"Close your eyes, sleep!"

Haibara Ai closed her eyes after giving Hoshino Ki a resentful glare.

Hoshino Ki lifted the quilt and lay down beside Haibara Ai.

He reached out and pulled her into his arms.

Haibara Ai’s cheeks flushed red.

Breathing in the cool scent on Hoshino Ki’s body.

Feeling his warm body temperature.

Before long, she gradually fell asleep.

After confirming Haibara Ai was asleep, Hoshino Ki withdrew his arm.

He sat up and reached out to tuck the corner of the quilt for her.

After taking a deep look at Haibara Ai, he got out of bed and walked out of the room.

The house was very quiet.

Hoshino Ki went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, leaning against the sink and drinking slowly.

Drinking while looking at his phone.

Hoshino Ki swiped the phone screen with one hand.

He was checking today’s news.

Just then! The phone suddenly rang; it was the sound of receiving a message.

It’s so late, who is sending him a message?

Hoshino Ki subconsciously clicked on the message.

His expression clearly froze when he saw the content of the message!

His breathing became deeper.

The expression on his face became increasingly deep.

He lowered his eyes, staring at the phone screen without blinking.

The person who sent him the message was actually Kisaki Eri.

The content of this message was also very simple.

Only two short words:

"Miss you."

Hoshino Ki read it over and over again.

This didn't seem like something Kisaki Eri could say.

Did her cat send it?

Hoshino Ki gripped the glass tightly.

The warm water inside swayed slightly...

His throat, which had just been moistened, seemed to become even thirstier.

He placed the glass on the countertop.

The phone screen remained unclicked for a long time, turning pitch black.

What is this?

Was this sentence really spoken by Kisaki Eri?

That was equivalent to making him believe that Kisaki Eri’s cat could do a backflip!

Miss him?

Impossible!

Hoshino Ki took a deep breath and lit up the phone screen.

His finger tapped lightly to reply:

"Lost a game of Truth or Dare?"

Besides that!

There was no other possibility.

In the bar.

Kisaki Eri sat at the bar counter.

She rested her elbows on the bar.

Holding a wine glass in one hand and her phone in the other.

She stared blankly at her phone screen.

Drinking causes trouble!

How could she do such a thing on impulse?

In fact, she had edited many contents in the chat box countless times.

It’s just that she hadn't sent any of them.

She was a bit uneasy, wondering if Hoshino Ki had put her on his blacklist.

Hoshino Ki was really too gentle.

Even if he was angry with her, he would find a way for her to save face.

Truth or Dare?

That was indeed a good excuse!

Kisaki Eri recalled today’s scene over and over again in her mind.

Her daughter sweetly linked her arm with Hoshino Ki’s.

Every gesture revealed her dependence and intimacy with him.

Her daughter likes Hoshino Ki!

Kisaki Eri’s mood was complicated.

Was she and Hoshino Ki destined to have no future?

She knew her own status.

So she didn't interfere in Hoshino Ki’s private life.

She could suppress her feelings when she didn't see them.

But now that she had seen them, she couldn't stand it.

Kisaki Eri didn't know what her mood was after seeing the message Hoshino Ki replied with.

A bit disappointed... and it seemed expected.

That’s right! What else could Hoshino Ki say to her?

Kisaki Eri gave a bitter laugh.

Then she replied, following Hoshino Ki’s words:

"Sorry!"

Hoshino Ki was slightly stunned looking at the message Kisaki Eri sent.

What the hell is this woman doing?

It seems it really was a punishment for losing a game.

He turned off the phone and put it in his pocket.

The water in the glass gradually turned cold.

Hoshino Ki raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose.

So many things happened in just one day.

Life is not easy!

Hoshino Ki returned to his room.

Haibara Ai’s steady breathing could be heard.

It was already eleven o'clock, it should have been time to sleep.

But Hoshino Ki had no sleepiness at all.

He went to the coat rack and took out the map and key from his jacket pocket.

No matter how you look at these two things, they have a "treasure" feeling.

Since there is treasure...

Then he must get it!

Otherwise, it would be all for nothing.

The map was made of cowhide.

It gave a full sense of age.

Hoshino Ki placed the map on the table and spread it out flat.

It clearly marked the location of the "treasure."

It is worth noting...

A blood-red skull was also drawn on the treasure location on the map.

It looked very dangerous on the surface.

It seems this treasure isn't so easy to get.

Maybe the location of this "treasure" is the headquarters of that mysterious organization.

Although it’s just a guess...

But before things are experienced, anything is possible.

Must be on guard.

Hoshino Ki moved his finger to open his system panel.

[Today’s points statistics: 120 points]

The existing points are not much.

Enough to start the next simulation.

But Hoshino Ki doesn't intend to start the simulation.

Because the rewards obtained from each simulation are unknown.

If you can't get useful rewards, everything is in vain.

His current goal is to go get the treasure.

The danger faced is unknown.

So it’s better to use the remaining points cautiously.

The only way to improve his strength in a short time.

Is to add all the points to his personal attributes.

Hoshino Ki tapped his finger to divide the 120 points into 3 parts.

40 points each were added to strength, defense, and agility.

A white light flashed.

The data on the system panel changed:

[Strength: 240+ (Strong as a big monster, one punch for 30 little cuties.)]

[Defense: 240+ (Your defense is extremely strong, can withstand all cold weapons and handgun attacks)]

[Agility: 240+ (Fast as lightning, swift as the wind, your speed is comparable to a flying arrow.)]

Sure enough, the effect is powerful!

Strength and agility have both taken a qualitative leap.

In terms of defense, it can now directly defend against handgun attacks!!

Truly awesome, awesome PLUS!

Hoshino Ki put the map and key back into his pocket.

Then he got into bed lightly.

Just as he lay down.

Haibara Ai leaned over.

The warm breath enveloped him, giving his cold body a bit of comfort.

Hoshino Ki looked down at Haibara Ai in his arms.

She didn't wake up, sleeping very soundly.
