Do you think this world is serious?

After saying that, Angelia turned slightly to the side, allowing Karen to enter the entrance hall beside her.

Unlike Chen Xiuming, who is male, and Yuexia Chuyong, who is small in stature, Karen is a true "adult" with a considerable bust size.

Even if she can't compare to the two Cecilias, she's not much worse than Maria and Angelia.

Therefore, if Angelia doesn't turn to the side, Karen really won't be able to get into the entryway.

pat!

The door closed gently, followed by the crisp sound of it being locked from the inside.

Then, Angelia returned briskly to the living room, her semi-transparent nightgown fluttering slightly, making her voluptuous figure even more alluring.

Upon entering the living room, Chen Xiuming immediately saw Delta sitting cross-legged in front of the television, watching the nighttime radio with great interest, while Maria, dressed in a light red lace nightgown, sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, quietly browsing news on her phone.

Hearing Chen Xiuming enter the living room, Maria raised her eyes, selectively ignoring Yuexia Chuyong and Karen, got up and walked to Chen Xiuming, taking the initiative to hug him.

"Sister...Brother, you're back too late."

Maria didn't directly express her longing, but Chen Xiuming could hear the unspoken meaning and sense the longing Maria wanted to convey.

He placed the fast food he was carrying on the coffee table, then reached out and hugged Maria's slender waist, whispering softly in her ear, "Sorry I'm late."

Hearing Chen Xiuming's apology whispered, Maria's longing lessened, and she was able to focus on Moonlight Embrace and Karen.

"Brother, they are..."

"They are Theresa and Karen."

Chen Xiuming first briefly introduced the names of Moonlit Embrace and Karen, then called Delta over to eat fast food.

While Maria, Angela, and Delta were enjoying a quick meal, he briefly recounted the general experience of the night's investigation.

However, aside from the encounter with the Moon Embrace and Kallen, there wasn't much else worth mentioning.

Upon hearing that Chen Xiuming would need to continue his investigation the following night, Angelia's mood suddenly plummeted, making her look listless.

Maria's expression didn't change much, but it was clear that she was also somewhat downcast.

On the other hand, as long as Chen Xiuming doesn't abandon her, she won't question his decisions, nor will she feel down because she doesn't have enough time to be intimate with him.

Seeing Maria and Angelia's downcast mood, Chen Xiuming thought for a moment and then comforted them, "Just because you don't have much time at night doesn't mean you don't have much time during the day."

Upon hearing this, Maria and Angelia immediately realized what was happening and their emotions returned to normal.

There wasn't much time for intimacy at night, but that didn't mean there wasn't time for it during the day either. They could certainly "exploit" Chen Xiuming during the day.

Chapter 136 "Black Collapse: Qi Tian"

At the restaurant where they were to meet, Chen Xiuming saw Ji Zi dressed in her finest attire.

"Senior, you're three minutes late."

"...There's a traffic jam on the road."

Chen Xiuming was not lying. It was lunchtime, and traffic jams were likely to occur when vehicles passed through areas with high pedestrian traffic.

Although he does not own a vehicle, he took a taxi for this trip.

Ji Zi didn't press the issue, but casually circled around in front of Chen Xiuming, seemingly hinting at something.

At this moment, Chen Xiuming noticed Ji Zi's attire.

Similar to the investigation last night, Himeko is not wearing the vigilante uniform now, but rather an exquisite dress that accentuates her voluptuous figure.

At only 19 years old, she already possesses a figure that rivals her peers. Now, wearing dresses that accentuate her figure, she becomes even more beautiful, charming, and dazzling.

"Senior, how are you doing?"

Ji Zi, with a meaningful look in her eyes, stood gracefully before Chen Xiuming.

Chen Xiuming looked Ji Zi up and down, then smiled and praised, "Ji Zi is even more beautiful today than last night."

"You're being too perfunctory!"

That being said, judging from the curve of Himeko's lips, she was clearly pleased with Chen Xiuming's words.

Then, she reached out and took Chen Xiuming's arm, pretending to be calm, and said, "Senior, let's go in now—I've already reserved a table for two."

"it is good."

Chen Xiuming didn't pay attention to Ji Zi taking his arm, and looked up at the restaurant's signboard.

——Houmu Happy Western Food.

"...The restaurants in the Houmu series are really everywhere."

"Hmph~"

Himeko smiled faintly and then explained, "Senior, please don't mind the name of this restaurant. The food here is actually quite good, and the prices are very cheap."

"I don't care, since I don't have to pay for it anyway."

"Hmm? Since that's what you say, senior, shall we walk another two hundred meters and go to Houmu Happy Restaurant for a meal?"

Himeko said this in a joking tone.

As a "destined vigilante," although the salary is not high, they are not usually short of money.

Each time a supernatural case is solved, the participating "Chosen Vigilantes" receive a substantial bonus.

Although Himeko enjoys drinking and has spent a lot of money on it, she has still managed to save a considerable amount of money.

The name "Houmu Happy Western Restaurant" gives the impression of being a "children's restaurant," but the interior decoration doesn't give that feeling, and most of the diners are adults.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Xiuming handed the choice of ordering food back to Ji Zi.

"Aren't you going to order anything, senior? I can afford to pay for whatever you order."

"You order."

Chen Xiuming shook his head slightly, "I don't have high requirements for food."

Upon hearing this, Ji Zi stopped trying to persuade him and took the initiative to order food for Chen Xiuming.

Although this is a Western restaurant, the menu includes not only Western food but also a number of Chinese dishes.

Himeko ordered a lot of food and asked Chen Xiuming if he wanted to drink.

Chen Xiuming naturally declined.

Himeko wasn't surprised, but she still bought a few cans of beer, intending to have a few drinks.

"Senior, what are your plans after you finish eating?"

"I'm planning to go home and take a nap. What about you?"

"I haven't decided yet, but..."

Himeko suddenly changed the subject, asking with a smile, "I happen to be able to get two movie tickets, would you be interested, senior?"

"what movie?"

"Wait a minute, let me see..."

Himeko took out her phone, pretending to check which movie was on the ticket, but actually she was looking at what movies were showing at the cinema.

After a moment, she determined her target.

"Black Collapse: Qitian".

Himeko skimmed through the synopsis. "This movie is a sequel to 'The Great Sage Equal to Heaven,' and it seems to tell the story of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven's wondrous dream journey. However, I haven't learned the specifics, so I'm not sure if this movie is interesting or not."

"The Great Sage Qitian..."

Chen Xiuming was somewhat taken aback.

The world bubble of the Shaniat sisters contains the movie "The Great Sage Equal to Heaven". Unexpectedly, not only is there this movie in this world bubble, but there is also a "sequel".

"How about it? Senior, would you like to go take a look together?"

Himeko feigned nonchalance, yet subtly revealed a deep sense of anticipation.

Chen Xiuming nodded thoughtfully, not refusing Ji Zi's invitation.

To be honest, he was actually quite curious about the content of "Black Collapse: Qitian".

After all, he had seen the movie "The Great Sage Equal to Heaven," so it was hard to imagine what kind of story "Black Collapse: The Great Sage Equal to Heaven," as the "second installment," would tell.

Surely it couldn't be that "Great Sage Qitian" accidentally lost his power and then embarked on a wondrous journey to regain it, could it?

"Since you've agreed, let's head straight to the movie theater after we finish eating!"

Himeko made the decision and then quietly ordered two movie tickets for "Black Collapse: Qitian".

……

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Ji Zi took Chen Xiuming straight to the movie theater.

When Ji Zi took out her phone and had the cinema staff scan the QR code to confirm the movie ticket, Chen Xiuming realized that Ji Zi hadn't actually gotten any movie tickets; she had booked them on the spot after he agreed to go to the movies.

Chen Xiuming didn't say much, but paid for two buckets of popcorn and two cold drinks out of his own pocket.

"Senior, let's get our tickets checked and enter!"

Ji Zi, full of youthful vigor, pulled Chen Xiuming toward the ticket gate. At this moment, she showed no trace of the heroic spirit of a "volunteer policeman," but rather was full of the lively energy of a young girl.

If you ignore her life experiences and just look at her age, you'll find that her peers are still in college.

She is a true genius.

Himeko was admitted to Caltech at the age of fifteen. After experiencing a series of events, she gave up her studies and participated in the original "Valkyrie Experiment".

Although she gained immense power, she was only a "half-baked" Valkyrie, and it also caused her lifespan to be drastically reduced, making it difficult for her to live past thirty.

"it is good."

Chen Xiuming responded softly to Ji Zi, and while following closely behind her, he began to think about how to make up for Ji Zi's physical defects.

Although this is a fragmented world bubble similar to the world bubble of the three Shaniat sisters, many things are no different from the [original world].

Similarly, while Himeko of the World Bubble and Himeko Murata of the [Original World] may have some differences in their life experiences, they face the same predicament.
