Chapter 284 Lazy 'Justice' [Requesting monthly votes!]

The next morning, at the docks of the Deep Blue City.

The sunlight turned the sea surface of the deep blue city into a pale gold color, and the waves lapped against the ship's side, splashing up tiny water droplets.

Tendou leaned against the railing of the passenger ship's deck, leisurely eating a tuna rice ball he had just bought from the ship's convenience store.

Just then, Jing Liuli suddenly ran over.

"Heavenly Dao! Look at this!"

Jing Liuli came to Tiandao's side, holding a palm-sized seashell in her hand.

Although this seashell looks ordinary, its interior glows with rainbow colors.

Jing Liuli held it up, looking very happy, and said, "I just happened to pick this up by the boat. Isn't it super pretty?"

"Sister Caroline said this is called a 'rainbow shell,' and that finding it will bring good luck. Here, it's for you."

Upon hearing this, Tiandao instinctively reached out to take the rainbow seashell that Jing Liuli had mentioned would bring good luck.

But just as he reached out, the rice ball in his hand was suddenly stolen.

Jing Liuli snatched his rice ball, quickly took a bite, and then made a smug face at him.

"Hehe! It tastes great, even better than the takoyaki at the amusement park yesterday!"

Looking at the smug Jing Liuli, Tiandao said irritably, "Childish."

As soon as the words were spoken, Heaven prepared to give this 'rice ball robber' a small punishment.

For example, messing up her hair that she had painstakingly tied up.

Just as Heaven was about to make its move, Jing Liuli, who was prepared, turned around with the rice ball in her hand and ran towards the sunshade, hiding behind Caroline for protection.

Not only that, she also falsely accused the other party.

"Caroline, look! Heaven is trying to bully me again!"

Caroline was standing under the awning, holding a glass of iced green tea.

She looked at Liuli running over, first smiling as she wiped the rice grains from the corner of Liuli's mouth, then unusually teasingly asked, "Oh? But why did I just see someone snatch someone else's rice ball first?"

"Caroline, you must have seen wrong!"

"is it?"

Seeing that Caroline didn't seem to want to help her deal with the Heavenly Dao, Jing Liuli stuck out her tongue, then quickly finished the rice ball in her hand, her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster.

But the way she wolfed down her food wasn't just gluttony; it was clearly revenge for the cruel tricks Heaven had played on her yesterday.

However, this method of revenge is somewhat childish.

Ignoring Jing Liuli's little prank, Tiandao gave the 'rainbow seashell,' a symbol of good luck, to Caroline.

After doing all this, Tiandao's gaze passed over the crowd and landed on another railing not far away.

A tall, thin man with curly, ramen-noodle-like hair was lounging leisurely in a deck chair, holding a comic book in his hand, with a half-eaten bag of tomato-flavored potato chips next to him.

Tiandao walked over and kicked his heel.

"It's been so long, and you're still as lazy as ever."

Upon hearing the words of the Heavenly Dao, Jeremiah slowly raised his head, his half-closed eyes showing no emotion, as if he had known all along that Jeremiah would come.

He moved the comic down a bit and said lazily, "Don't talk about me, you haven't changed much either, have you? You're still that confident person who doesn't care about anyone."

"Tiandao, you know him?"

Liuli curiously leaned closer and looked at Jeremiah on the recliner.

However, the grown-up Jeremiah was completely different from the child, so much so that Jing Liuli did not recognize this Star No. 7 immediately.

Caroline came over and gave Jing Liuli an answer.

“It is Jeremiah.”

Hearing Caroline's words, Jing Liuli became even more confused.

"Jeremiah? Who's that?"

A moment later, Liuli's eyes widened suddenly, and she pointed at Jeremiah and shouted, "Oh! I remember now! It's that short, stout guy from when we were little!"

"Pfft!" Hearing Jing Liuli call him a shorty, he almost spat out the potato chips he had just put in his mouth, and black lines instantly appeared on his forehead.

He rubbed his temples and explained helplessly, "My Frost Giant bloodline wasn't fully activated back then, so of course I wouldn't grow tall."

Thinking back to her childhood, Liuli couldn't help but laugh.

"But you were so short back then! I was half a head taller than you!"

As she spoke, Jing Liuli gestured above her head, as if reliving the scene across time.

Mr. Jeremiah sighed and then closed the comic strip.

Because Jeremiah had other topics he wanted to complain about more than the nickname "shorty".

He looked at Jing Liuli and said helplessly, "Liuli, we are from the same family. You're making me feel like I have no presence."

"Huh? You're also in the Frost Sound Clan? But I don't remember you at all."

"That's because I was mistaken for a 'Frost God's Messenger' by the old guys of the Starfrost Sect as soon as I arrived, and was sent to the Winter Realm for training. I was only recently released."

"Oh, I see. You're so pitiful."

As Jing Liuli was saying this, she suddenly realized something.

"Wait! You said you're from the Starfrost Frost Faction?"

Seeing that Jing Liuli had finally discovered the crux of the problem, Jeremiah shrugged, indicating that he was indeed from that side.

Upon receiving this reply, Jing Liuli's face immediately tensed up.

After all, those old fogies from the Starfrost Sect have always disliked her.

And Jeremiah, this so-called 'messenger of the Frost God,' suddenly appeared here. Could it be that those old fogies want to make a move here?

Fortunately, the Heavenly Dao spoke up at this moment, easing Jing Liuli's tension.

"Don't worry, Liuli, Jeremiah is not what you think. He really just came to catch up with old friends."

Liuli breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.

"That's good! I thought they were going to pull some tricks again!"

After saying all this, Tiandao looked at Jeremiah again and said, "Speak, what else do you want to say to us at this time besides catching up?"

"After all, you may seem lazy, but you have a much stronger sense of principle than most people."

“I don’t think you would suddenly come over during such a sensitive time.”

Jeremiah glanced at the Heavenly Dao, slowly abandoning his lazy tone and becoming unusually serious.

"Heavenly Dao, be careful of Chen Kong and his group."

Upon hearing this, Caroline seemed thoughtful, while Liuli scratched her head in confusion.

The Heavenly Dao was well aware of the reason for this.

It's just that 'Isabelle' was taken 'hostage' by the Starfrost Faction and forced to cause trouble at the concert.

However, even if Heaven doesn't intervene, Chen Kong and the others in the original story would split into two groups: one to rescue Isabel, and the other to help Jing Liuli successfully hold her concert.

Therefore, the heavens responded calmly to Jeremiah's reminder.

"Oh, I see."

Seeing his expression, she unfolded the comic book again.

"Whatever you want. Anyway, I've said what I needed to say. Don't come looking for me if anything goes wrong."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Dao couldn't help but laugh.

"For someone as lazy as you to make a special trip like this, it seems those guys' actions went against your sense of justice, didn't they?"

Jeremiah didn't speak, but just quietly looked at the comic book.

But sometimes, silence is also an answer.
