Liu Bai almost facepalmed on the spot. Couldn't you, an assassin, put in a little more effort?
"Well, the story about me and my sister is a long one. My sister and I, um... we're half-siblings?"
Chapter 19 Rita: Do you believe in love at first sight?
"Well!"
Upon hearing the words "half-father, half-mother," Raven, unable to contain himself any longer, punched Liu Bai in the kidneys from behind.
I'm not putting my heart into it, and neither are you?
Liu Bai's eyes were also very displeased. You're not putting your heart into it, but you expect me to?
Do you think I want to adopt an older sister?
"puff……"
Eden chuckled as he watched Raven and Willow White's little antics.
"Well... now I'm starting to believe that you two are siblings."
"..."
Did they manage to get away with it?
The raven didn't know why it couldn't feel happy at all.
"Would you mind exchanging contact information, Mr. Liu Bai?" Dian continued.
Since it wasn't a kidnapping or anything, Eden didn't care about the relationship between the two people.
Compared to that, Eden was more interested in Liu Bai; it had been a long time since he had met a stranger with whom he could chat so casually.
"Of course I don't mind."
Liu Bai doesn't have a cell phone, but his bracelet has some communication functions—although currently the bracelet's contact list only contains Gray Snake.
After exchanging contact information briefly, Eden said goodbye and left.
"You're pretty good, kid."
After Eden left, Raven pulled Liu Bai and Gui Naifen to a quiet corner of the library and spoke coldly.
"On his second day on Earth, he's already carefree, shopping and flirting with girls?"
"Is it my fault?" Bai rolled her eyes. "I think my dear sister should explain what happened with the Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"Who's your sister, you bastard!"
The raven's indifferent expression completely crumbled.
"Ah... what a cold-hearted older sister. Xiao Guizi, don't become that kind of older sister in the future." Bai made a resentful expression.
"Of course! I'm very good to my younger brother and sister!"
"Shut up, you bastard."
Raven was clearly not so gentle with Gui Naifen, and directly pinched Gui Naifen's cheeks and scolded her angrily.
"I was wrong, I was wrong!"
They begged for mercy without any backbone.
Raven then released Gui Naifen and turned its gaze back to Liu Bai.
"...Can't you have a little sense of urgency? You've landed on an unknown planet, you know."
Gui Naifen: "..."
In fact, Gui Naifen really wanted to say that her boss didn't seem like he had landed on an unknown planet at all; rather, he seemed to have come home.
Liu Bai's familiarity with this world over the past two days is not something that can be understood simply by going online—as a popular online streamer, Gui Naifen is also trying to use the network on this planet.
“Life goes on.” Bai gave a reply that left Raven speechless. “So, can you tell me about the Chamber of Commerce?”
"The Chamber of Commerce? What's so special about the Chamber of Commerce? I was really shocked by you. Who would have thought you were actually in the Chamber of Commerce?"
"You startled me too," Bai said, somewhat speechless. "A direct attack on the Chamber of Commerce, even I think it's a bit reckless."
"Yes, yes, business people are generally not easy to mess with." Gui Naifen recalled some unpleasant memories.
Although the Interstellar Peace Company is a worthless business association.
"...Okay, I admit it, I was negligent too."
After a moment of silence, the raven admitted its mistake.
Failing to notice Liu Bai's whereabouts is an error that cannot be concealed.
However, Raven himself didn't really want to get involved with Liu Bai.
It's not that we lack experience in managing lab rats—although that's one of the reasons.
More importantly, Raven felt no threat from Liu Bai at all, did not do anything immoral, and had no personal grudges with him.
Raven felt a pang of conscience about putting such a person on Mebius's operating table—although it was quite ridiculous for an assassin to use that word.
Out of sight, out of mind; the raven understands the survival strategy of evil people.
Since they are guinea pigs, no matter how comfortable they are now, they will eventually be sent to the laboratory by their own lord.
"So, what did you buy at the Chamber of Commerce?" Raven decided to skip the point where the argument was going wrong.
"We can't eat bread every day."
"Huh?" Raven looked puzzled. "Don't you know that Shencheng Pharmaceuticals has an employee cafeteria? You can eat as much as you want by swiping your wristband."
"Eh! Eh! Eh!" Before Bai could say anything, Gui Naifen exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh, that's how it is."
Liu Bai nodded calmly—he wasn't buying these things simply to eat; he was using food as an excuse to avoid suspicion.
"So what books did you buy this time? Don't waste your money."
Raven glanced down at Liu Bai's handbag.
"Physical training, agility training, strength training? Thirty thousand for a book? Are you kidding me...? Hey, you really believe in this ridiculously expensive and unreliable stuff?"
For a fleeting moment, Raven looked at Liu Bai as if he were looking at his own mentally challenged, spendthrift younger brother.
"If you ask me, you should quit. I'll set aside some time to teach you later, and that will definitely be more useful than this stuff."
Raven decided to keep an eye on Willow White.
However, before Liu Bai could figure out how to persuade Raven, Raven suddenly turned around.
"Oh dear... have I disturbed you two?"
Before anyone knew it, a maid had approached Liu Bai and Raven.
The two sides were only about 20 steps apart.
It's a long way for a normal person, but for the Valkyrie... it's just a second.
(Oops……)
The raven had a bad feeling.
"Sir, it seems we are truly destined to meet."
Rita's eyes swept over the raven, then looked at Liu Bai, who was being protected by the raven, before finally returning to the raven.
(Is that appearance... a 'snake'?)
Rita was a little unsure, after all, the other person's current appearance was quite different from what she remembered—it was almost like Lady Bianca had suddenly put on a little dress.
"Brother...you know her?"
"I met this maid once before at the Chamber of Commerce."
With his usual composure, Liu Bai was not surprised at all, and quickly figured out the situation and continued Raven's conversation.
So I was being watched after all?
Even after Lu ran away, he specifically chased after her three times. #Was the first impression he left on Rita really that deep?
Are you two siblings?
Rita listened to their conversation with an interested expression.
(The snake's younger brother... is he trying to blackmail him?)
From the enemy's perspective, this is a perfect weakness.
“Yes, he is my brother.” Raven took a deep breath.
His own identity may have already been exposed, but no matter how long it has been, he could not let this guy realize that Liu Bai was yesterday's visitor from outer space.
"Excuse me, miss, what can I do for my brother?"
There are many ordinary people in the library, so it shouldn't lead to a direct conflict... Even if it does, I can take ordinary people hostage if I really can't handle it.
Evil people have their own way of surviving.
Exploiting the morality of good people is also part of this.
Li Qunta maintained a subtle, business-like smile, "It's nothing major... (Please tell me, do you believe in love at first sight?)"
Chapter Twenty: The feeling of being in a chaotic battlefield is so exhilarating!
The moment I saw you, I was overwhelmed with affection!
Raven suppressed the urge to curse aloud.
You? Love at first sight? You must be joking.
"Sorry, group, my brother Wu. My brother isn't interested in women of unknown origin."
Even if you curse in your heart, you can't help but put on a smile on your face.
Stay calm, stay calm. If we can get through this, there's no need to fight.
Even if a fight breaks out, we must not let the other party realize Liu Bai's true identity.
Even if the King of Heaven himself came today, Liu Bai would still be her younger brother!
"He, um... he only needs me as his older sister."
How could I have come up with such disgusting lines?
The raven reflected on its actions for a second.
"..."
(Is this what they call "brother complex"?)
Rita watched the protective raven and fell into deep thought.
(Could this be the reason why the raven retreated so decisively earlier?)
How could a dignified "snake" killer be a brother-obsessed man?
No, no, no, this is just too surreal...
Well, even though I'm a top-tier S-class Valkyrie, I'm still the family's good daughter.
As for family matters, let's all refrain from criticizing each other.
But if that's the case, then it'll be even more interesting.
If I use this "younger brother" as leverage, will the "snake" killer give in?
Rita's mind raced for a moment, then she continued speaking with a smile:
"...I'm really surprised. You're quite... well, a very straightforward older sister."
Hey, you bastard, you mean to say disgusting, right?
Okay, I also think that line is disgusting—Raven surprisingly isn't too angry.
"Let's go, brother. In the future, you must stay away from this kind of vixen with loose morals when you're out and about."
Without saying a word, the raven grabbed Liu Bai and prepared to leave.
