[I bet you just eat and drink your fill and then sleep, what kind of talk is this about conserving energy...] The system bluntly exposed Mo Mo's thoughts. [Have you already accepted your homeless status so quickly? Why are you so adept at sleeping on the streets?!]

If we continue to be so passive, will we even be able to proceed with the next steps?

"Alright, don't disturb my sleep. I'm tired after walking around all day." Mo Mo shifted closer to a more comfortable position and closed her eyes. "I'm going to sleep, so please don't make a sound. If there's any noise, remember to wake me up."

Who knows, I might even get to see the famous Lady Green Lily tonight.

To be honest, I'm actually a little excited, hehe...

Sleep! You deserve to sleep yourself to death!

【Zzzzzz......】

[...] The system felt that it was becoming increasingly helpless against this guy.

"Damn it, why should I have to keep watch for you while you get to rest? I've been keeping watch for you all night." The system muttered to itself, filled with displeasure. "Dream on, I need to sleep too."

"..."

The deserted alleyway fell into complete silence.

The last rays of the setting sun had faded, and starlight gradually filled the night sky.

"Zzzzzzz." A soft snore echoed in the alley.

Without a doubt, Mo Mo was sleeping soundly, occasionally smacking his lips.

If you listen carefully, you can faintly hear another, almost imperceptible breath. It seems the system is just as capable, falling asleep instantly without hesitation.

Time slipped away silently.

Unbeknownst to them, it had become late at night, but Mo Mo and the system showed no signs of waking up.

"Tap tap tap tap".

The irregular footsteps gradually became clearer.

A figure dressed in gorgeous green stopped at the entrance of the alley.

“Zzzzzz......”

"She's nothing but a lowly commoner..." A disdainful look swept over Mo Mo from under the brim of her hat. She carefully lifted the heavy hem of her skirt and walked with difficulty toward the magnificent mansion not far away.

Mo Mo frowned slightly in his sleep, then relaxed a moment later.

He was clearly unaware that he had unknowingly missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Yet they remained immersed in a dream world where everything was possible.

After an unknown amount of time, in the still of the night, under the bright moonlight, a nimble figure appeared, deftly moving across the rooftops, carrying a heavy cloth bag on his back, casually scattering glittering points of light.

"This should help them..." The satisfied murmur dissipated in the night wind as the phantom thief, who had been scaling walls and rooftops, was carrying out his final task.

"Next, all we need to do is... oh dear!"

Presumably, he stepped on some substandard tile, and a discordant note was added to the smooth melody, causing the smug phantom thief to encounter a minor mishap.

"boom!!!"

The dull thud of a heavy object falling to the ground, carrying a violent impact, echoed through the narrow alley, waking Mo Mo from her sweet dream.

"An assassin???!!!"

[Tip]: If you like this article, please recommend it to more friends! Sharing is a pleasure.

9. Of course, it could also be an angel?

With a loud crash, the sound of the heavy object falling to the ground created an effect no less than that of a towering wave.

Mo Mo, who was smacking her lips in her sleep, almost bit her tongue off. The moment she regained consciousness, she sprang up from the ground like a taut spring, pressing herself against the wall and nervously looking around.

"An assassin???!!!"

[What?! An assassin?!] The system was also jolted awake from its dormancy, chattering in Mo Mo's mind, [Quick, protect him!]

[Protect my ass! If anyone's going to protect you, it's me, okay?]

While criticizing the system for being "cowardly and afraid of death," Mo Mo's gaze gradually turned to the place where the loud noise had just come from.

Gradually adapting to the darkness without lights, Mo Mo looked in the direction of the sound under the bright moonlight.

A bulging sack landed not far away, almost completely blocking the entrance to the alley.

There appeared to be a motionless, blurry figure lying beneath, its fate unknown.

"That was a really hard hit. Is he really going to die like this?" the system said uncertainly.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch..." Mo Mo pricked up his ears and could still faintly hear a soft groan.

Looks like he's not dead yet... Wait a minute!

A flash of inspiration struck Mo Mo, activating the circuit.

At this time, in this setting.

there is only one truth!

Xi Kalian!

"Are you alright?!" Mo Mo, realizing what was happening, quickly ran over to him.

"Is anyone there?" A faint but melodious female voice came from under the sack. "Could you please pull me out? I can't get any strength in me."

The weak and feeble request sounded both fortunate and helpless.

Wow, Tang Sanzang moved mountains to save Sun Wukong?

Go away, don't talk nonsense.

"Wait a minute." Mo Mo carefully stepped forward, grabbed the tied burlap sack, and suddenly pulled hard with both hands.

"Clang, clang—"

After a crisp metallic clang, the large sack was tossed aside by Mo Mo.

"It's actually quite heavy..." Mo Mo clapped his hands, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out to the person who was stuck in the pit, "Do you need help?"

"Thank you so much..." The man took Mo Mo's hand and climbed out of the pit, allowing Mo Mo and the system to see everything clearly.

Wow! This isn't like Tang Sanzang rescuing his disciple; it's like Lin Daiyu falling from the sky! Mo Zai, you're incredibly lucky!

No wonder the system was making such a fuss, even Mo Mo, who was mentally prepared, was amazed.

Her long, silvery-white braid seemed to glow under the moonlight, and her fitted purple dress accentuated her curvaceous figure. A purplish-black mask covered half of her face, but it could not hide her beautiful face beneath.

Although he was covered in dust and looked disheveled, he was still incredibly charming.

Ah, this is what it feels like to be smitten.

No matter how you imagine it, you could never have guessed that the first meeting would be so dramatic.

It was like a gift from heaven.

Is this the Kallen Kaslana you were talking about?

Mo Mo ignored the system, shaking his head slightly to dismiss the strange look on his face. "You..."

"Wow, this is a huge help." Karen looked Mo Mo up and down and said gratefully, "I didn't expect you could actually carry such a heavy bag."

"It's nothing serious..." Compared to Karen's generosity, Mo Mo seemed much more nervous, his constantly rubbing fingers revealing his inner restraint.

Hey, hey, hey, have some self-respect! Look at you, it's embarrassing!

[Mind your own business!]

Mo Mo turned her face away and mentally retorted, but when she turned back, she found Karen had moved closer and was staring at her intently with a frown.

"Um... is there something strange on my face?"

It couldn't be because she thought it was too ugly, Mo Mo was quite confident in her looks.

"Hmm... Haven't we met somewhere before?"

After carefully looking her up, down, left, and right, Karen asked hesitantly.

"I think it should be our first meeting..." Mo Mo replied with a complicated expression.

Although we used to see each other on our phones every day, this is the first time I've seen them so closely and clearly.

No, this is about to turn from a fluttering heart into a heart attack.

"Ah, I remember now!" Karen clapped her hands, a flash of inspiration striking her. "You're the person from the square yesterday!"

Yesterday? The square?

This undoubtedly refers to the scene where Mo Mo intervened to help those in need.

"I remember you, the kind man who rescued that young lady from the guards."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received a "friend card".]

Ignoring the system's quirky notification sound, Mo Mo asserted without hesitation, "It was indeed me..."

Sure enough, Kallen and Otto were watching from the sidelines at that time. Perhaps it was Otto who pulled Momo aside and gave him the opportunity to perform.

"To be able to lend a helping hand to others in that situation, you must be a person full of a sense of justice." Karen patted Mo Mo on the shoulder, her approval clearly heartfelt.

"It was just a small favor..." Mo Mo scratched his head, feeling overwhelmed by the excessive praise.

After all, it was just an impulsive act in the heat of the moment.

"You don't look like a local?" Karen asked curiously, noticing the unusual features on Mo Mo's face.

"I am a Chinese, even though I am homeless now," Mo Mo readily admitted.

"People from China..." Karen's expression became slightly complicated upon hearing this word. "Someone as kind as you is destined to be a wanderer...?"

Am I being misunderstood?

Who cares? Just go with the flow. You're just a homeless person now anyway.

"Please wait a moment." Karen resumed her gentle smile, called out to Mo Mo, and then walked towards the large sack to the side.

After untying the opening, Karen laboriously reached inside and began searching.

A short while later, he pulled a small bag out of the sack.
