The next day.
When Lin Xi woke up, he was all alone.
After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he saw Ogiwara Sayu in the kitchen wearing an apron.
She had tied her hair into a ponytail with a hair tie and was making breakfast in a decent manner.
Looking at her from the side.
The girl's delicate face and slender body curves were very beautiful.
"Lin Xi, good morning."
Seeing him walk over, Ogiwara Sayu gave him a sweet smile and greeted him politely.
Because calling him "Lin-kun" or "Xi-kun" sounded strange to him, as if he had changed his name.
So he asked Ogiwara Sayu to either call him Lin Xi directly or call him boss.
"Good morning, Sayu."
Lin Xi replied, admiring her movements.
While Ogiwara Sayu greeted him, her hands didn't stop, and she continued to fry eggs.
The egg liquid in the pot had gradually taken shape under the action of the oil temperature.
She skillfully used the spatula to flip the egg, and in less than a minute, a fragrant, golden-surfaced fried egg was ready.
Soon.
Two bowls of steaming egg noodles appeared on the table.
"I'm starting."
Lin Xi couldn't wait to start slurping the noodles.
The aroma was overflowing, and the taste was also great.
Lin Xi's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"So delicious!"
"Sayu, from now on, I'll leave all my three meals a day to you!"
"No problem, this was originally what I promised."
The girl also started eating noodles, while giving him a sweet smile.
After finishing the noodles, Lin Xi didn't even let go of the soup.
He ate his fill.
Seeing him so approving of her cooking skills, Ogiwara Sayu's mood became cheerful.
Lin Xi asked her to clean the dishes and then go tidy up her own room.
The room next to his was now hers.
Girls always like to dress up their rooms and have some personal space.
Ogiwara Sayu obediently went to her own room next door.
Standing in the room, she couldn't help but start to daydream.
From today onwards, will I really be living here?
Will I not be driven away because of my unclear identity?
Will I not be homeless because I have no money?
After spending all her money, Ogiwara Sayu clearly knew how important money was.
And even more important was a place to sleep at night.
Without money, you are nothing and cannot own anything.
But she did not regret running away from home.
Compared to that home where she couldn't feel any warmth, that mother who didn't care about her at all.
The tenderness given by Lin Xi made her even more memorable.
In fact, Lin Xi could have completely slept with her, given her some money, and driven her away.
Those uncles were consistent in this method of treating runaway girls.
But Lin Xi didn't ignore her.
He not only bought her clothes, but also helped her with the check-in procedures.
Thinking about it, Ogiwara Sayu's eyes gradually became moist.
I've decided.
As long as Lin Xi needs it, she must satisfy this man who is gentle to her.
… … …
After breakfast, Lin Xi asked Ogiwara Sayu to watch the house, and he went out.
Sobu High School will start in two days.
So he has to collect his custom-made school uniform.
Originally, it should have been delivered to the door by courier.
But the courier company called and, without saying anything, gave a series of "Sumimasen", "Honto ni sumimasen~".
The staff apologized repeatedly, saying that all the company's vehicles had broken down and could not be delivered in time, and asked him to personally go to the courier company's branch to collect it, and said that they would waive the courier fee this time.
Lin Xi had no choice but to go out in person to pick it up.
Taking the train, he quickly arrived at the courier company's branch.
He and the staff searched for a long time before finding his school uniform.
Seeming very sorry.
The staff bowed and apologized to him again.
Lin Xi was very generous and said it was okay. .
Speaking of which, aren't you tired of bowing so many times?
Saying sorry comes right out of your mouth.
But how much apology is really in your heart, only they know.
Silently complaining about the staff in his heart.
Lin Xi took the courier and turned to leave.
In fact, he was very curious about what happened that would cause all the courier company's vehicles to be unable to move.
Having nothing to do.
Lin Xi went to a well-known sauce-flavored grilled meat shop to buy a portion, asked the clerk to help pack it, and prepared to take it back for Sayu to try.
This so-called sauce-flavored grilled meat is actually braised meat.
It smells fragrant and has a lingering taste.
Anyway, it has a charming taste that makes people want to eat it again after eating it.
Of course, it will still be greasy if you eat too much.
It is worth mentioning that.
While queuing, in front of him stood a girl with two braids decorated with tricolor flower hair accessories and wearing thick glasses.
He inexplicably felt familiar.
Probably a character from some anime, he didn't think about it carefully.
The Game of Life System did not trigger a mission, perhaps it was an unimportant person, and he did not intend to strike up a conversation.
Getting on the train, he didn't stay any longer and prepared to go home.
Looking at the packaged soy-sauce braised pork, he couldn't help but anticipate Sayu's expression after she tasted it.
People like Lin Xi just enjoyed sharing things they liked with the people they cared about.
Especially food.
Enjoying it together created even more happiness.
Of course, he didn't share with everyone.
Some people weren't worth sharing with.
As he was thinking, he suddenly smelled a foul odor.
It smelled like a dead rat in a stinky ditch.
It almost made him throw up.
Looking up, he saw that the smell was coming from a girl with long, straight black hair in a JK uniform.
Looking closely, he saw that the girl's legs were pressed tightly together.
She was standing in front of the train door, staring at her phone, but Lin Xi noticed her body was trembling slightly.
Perhaps his eyesight was too good.
He thought he saw that the pretty girl's skirt looked wet.
Ding, quest triggered: The Spiritual Girl's Fright.
Before you is a girl who can see evil spirits and is constantly harassed by them. If the evil spirits discover she can see them, they might take her away.
Out of fear, the girl has even wet herself. Please help the girl drive away the evil spirit. Completing the quest will reward you with a skill or item.
Seeing the quest details, and looking at the cute face of the black-haired JK girl, he instantly knew who she was.
Yotsuya Miko.
From "Mieruko-chan," a hilarious anime.
The anime uses the female lead, Yotsuya Miko, constantly being frightened by evil spirits, and her only being able to hide her fear and pretend not to see them, as a selling point to attract viewers.
But for Miko herself, having the ability to see spirits and constantly being scared is simply a disaster.
The fact that she hasn't gone crazy on the spot already shows her strong mental fortitude.
Lin Xi could already smell the rotten stench of the evil spirit, so he believed Yotsuya Miko's feelings were even more profound.
If this evil spirit stayed any longer, Lin Xi felt he was really going to throw up.
There was no way around it, for both emotional and rational reasons, he had to do this quest.
So, he moved his feet and came to Yotsuya Miko, who was surrounded by a pitch-black figure covered in eyeballs and exuding a foul odor, and stared directly into the evil spirit's scarlet eyes.
"Get lost, you stink."
"Gaah? You... can see me?"
The evil spirit tilted its head, its entire body writhing like a worm, like a twisted braid.
Each eyeball occasionally widened and stared at him intently.
Then, it suddenly opened its bloody mouth and bit down on him.
Lin Xi's "Damage Doubled Reflection" skill instantly activated.
Ding, attacked by a creature (evil spirit), damage doubled and reflected!
So, under the girl's shocked gaze, the evil spirit's mouth of teeth shattered directly, and it disappeared with a wail.
Ding, The Spiritual Girl's Fright, quest completed.
Congratulations, player, you have obtained the skill: Spirit Eyes.
Spirit Eyes: Automatically triggers this skill upon encountering a spirit, then gains one charge. Each charge can release one Spirit Eye Strike effect.
Spirit Eye Strike?
Although he hadn't experimented with it, it should be a type of soul attack.
Well, it's another means of dealing with souls.
Lin Xi indicated that it was a good deal.
He turned his gaze to the still bewildered girl.
Noticing that her uniform skirt was dripping water, he took off his coat and wrapped it around her waist.
"I'm giving you the coat, no need to thank me."
After saying that, he strode out as the train doors opened.
He had reached his stop.
At the same time,
The courier company's delivery vehicles returned to normal one after another.
