Not a god

Chapter 189 Evil Corpses on the Street
Chen Yi tried to tear open the packaging paper for a long time but failed. She asked her father to help her, and then she saw her father tear it open and eat the candy.

"Huh?!"

She stared blankly at her father.

Chen Xi chewed on a milk candy while calmly watching her. After what seemed like a moment's thought, she took out another milk candy from her pocket and offered it to Chen Xi again, quite generously.
"Give it to Dad!"

Chen Xi looked at her and laughed. She didn't know what her father was laughing at, so she just hummed along and laughed. When she laughed, her little nose twitched, as if she was very proud of herself.

"Should we give it back to Dad?"

"Daddy, eat!"

"it is good."

Chen Xi took it, opened it in front of her, and then ate it.

During this process, she watched Chen Xi eat the candy with longing eyes, then she reached into her pocket, only to find her small palm empty after searching for a while.

She fell silent.

"No, Yiyi doesn't."

Chen Xi asked, "Does Yiyi want some candy?"

She nodded her little head vigorously.

"If Yiyi wants to eat it, why give it to Daddy?"

"Give it to Dad."

"But if Daddy eats it, Yiyi won't have any left."

“Nothing…” She looked at her hands, and there was indeed nothing there.

Little Chenyi is very well-behaved. She often has something to eat in her pocket and will give it to Xueji, Douzi, and the others. Sometimes, even if she really wants to eat it herself, she will take it out and give it to them naturally, then look at them longingly.

Being generous is a good thing, but being too generous is not a good thing. Children who are too sensible will suffer in terms of personality when they grow up.

Sharing with others is a good thing for a child, but there's no need to suppress one's desires just to share. This kind of reasoning is a bit difficult to explain to her, so Chen Xi held her and patiently taught her.

"Does Yiyi want more candy?"

"Want to eat!"

"Dad went to ask Sister Jiang Yan for it."

But when Chen Xi went over to ask, Jiang Yan looked at her strangely and said that she didn't have any milk candy on her.

"You didn't give it to her?"

"No, I just gave her one meatball, which I bought over there."

"Then where did she get the candy?"

"I do not know either."

Jiang Yan looked at Chen Yi, who was being held, and the little girl turned her head to look at Jiang Yan. Her father was also looking at her, so she looked at her father and kept twisting her neck, her gaze shifting between their faces, not knowing why they were looking at her.

"Where did you get this candy?" Chen Xi had a bad feeling.

As Chen Yi looked at her father, her eyes grew brighter and brighter, and her little face became rounder and rounder. Chen Xi could vaguely see a hint of pride on her face.

"..." Never mind, the candy is alright, at least it has a layer of wrapping paper.

If you were to pick up some cookies or fruit from the ground, that would be truly a rip-off.

Chen Xi felt that getting Xiao Chenyi to stop picking up things from the ground to eat was a long and arduous task.

Chen Xi carried her inside to see what the two people were doing. Jiang Wanwan wanted to buy some childish and meaningless things, but they were all trinkets and not as expensive as the holy sword.

Folding fans with the calligraphy "人有所操" written on them, and hair clips with rabbit ears, are all small items with anime/manga style.

There was also a second-hand game store where Jiang Wanwan played the game. You had to go to the counter and shout out some really embarrassing incantations to the girl, then complete a task to get a redemption code in the game to exchange for rewards. The otaku seemed to have no concept of shame, each shouting louder than the last.

Both of the little gingers were wearing masks and sunglasses, their faces completely covered. After encouraging each other for a while, they walked over.

Although Jiang Xiaowan's voice was soft and gentle, her tone was very firm, while Jiang Wanwan stammered and couldn't say anything.

The shop assistant teased me: "What? What did you say, little sister?"

"I, I, I, I..."

"Little sister, don't rush, speak slowly."

Actually, this shop assistant should be a student working part-time. She looks like she's under 20, while Jiang Wanwan is almost 23.

Chen Xi felt that she could stay there until the shop closed.

She ran away in a final burst, then pushed her brother over.

There was also a clothing store, which mainly sold cosplay outfits, but the style was rather ambiguous, with all kinds of silk, bold and avant-garde lace and openwork clothing. Chen Xi felt that this store was a bit soft and erotic, but there were quite a few people browsing, but not many people bought anything; most were just looking at it out of curiosity.

They were all there, commenting and criticizing, saying which game character this slip dress belonged to, and which anime the lace was from.

They bought some things at the end, and after paying, they quickly fled.

"What did you buy?" Chen Xi asked curiously.

Jiang Wanwan adjusted her sunglasses and said coolly, "Dangerous pants!"

Chen Xi was taken aback: "Dangerous pants? What are those?"

"Unlike safety pants, these are pants that would be dangerous to wear."

Jiang Xiaowan said, "It's Luo Qixi's sacred object from Wuzhili!"

"..." In middle school, he watched anime with Jiang Wanwan, but Chen Xi had somewhat withdrawn from the fandom after entering university. He was not very familiar with the popular anime or comics in recent years. He never expected that it had developed to the point of treating panties as sacred objects. It seems that the days when everyone in the anime and manga community would be condemned are coming back soon.

"Let's go, it's getting late..." However, just as Chen Xi was about to take them back, she vaguely heard some commotion coming from across the street.

"The evil remains have appeared over there!"

Wow, really!

"Come over and have a look!"

Jiang Wanwan was also taken aback for a moment, and asked in surprise, "Do people here like to join in the fun? They don't even run away when the evil corpse comes out?"

The Dream Watching Towers in Jiangcheng have been put into use one after another, covering the entire city.

The evil spirits that lurked there in the past have been removed by the forbidden magic of the Shepherd. The evil spirits that enter the mortal world each day will also give an early warning. The Shepherd or the police will appear quickly to drive away the crowd. Or, after hearing the warning, ambitious young people who have awakened their destiny nearby will go to see if they can help.

The city is not as dangerous as it used to be, but when people hear the alarm, they run as far away as possible.

The people here are quite something. The Dream Tower isn't even finished yet, meaning the evil remains appeared suddenly, but they still went to watch the spectacle.

Chen Xi knew why.

In Shanghai, where land is incredibly valuable, there were many prominent families in the old days, totaling 17.

These old-era chosen families each divided their own spheres of influence, and if any evil remains appeared, they would mobilize even faster than the Shepherd's Guard.

Firstly, many industries here are related to them. Unlike Wuhan, if other businesses, tourists, or highly skilled talents who are planning to develop here feel that it is unsafe, it would be a heavy blow to them.

Secondly, showcasing their abilities under the public eye is also very beneficial for their game guild's recruitment efforts.

In fact, the accident fatality rate and missing persons rate here are much higher than in Jiangcheng, but due to the various propagandas over the years, the fear of wrecked remains is generally lower.

"Let's go and have a look too."
