Girl in the Box: Please tell me why I was reincarnated as a mimic monster!

“…Are you blind?” Li rolled her eyes at him.

“No, no, no, I’m not blind.” Savi shook his head. “I just find it a bit unbelievable. I’ve never heard of a dragon that’s made entirely of metal.”

“That’s not a dragon…it’s just an outer shell at best.” Li looked around. “So, it won’t move, and you don’t need to worry.”

As the Dragon King, I can't sense any dragon aura. How could that thing possibly be a dragon?

"Haha, I think so too." Saiwei smiled and jumped to a closer spot to observe.

He walked fearlessly to the foot of the dragon, casually tapping and striking it with his Soul Wood Sword, occasionally letting out exclamations and shouts.

"Hey! Li! This dragon head can open!"

"Well, I see."

"Wow! It even has teeth! Look at this!"

"Mmmmmmm..."

"Wow! That's amazing!"

"You're so noisy! You idiot!"

"Feel sorry……"

After being yelled at by Li, Saiwei quieted down, feeling as if he had seen this scene somewhere before.

Because Savi kept walking around looking at things and shouting, it made it impossible for Li to concentrate on using the Magic Eye. Now that he's quiet, that's good.

Several maps appeared in Ryū's field of vision. They were maps showing different data in this room. The Magic Eye integrated them and superimposed them together as Ryū searched.

After being yelled at, Saiwei obediently stopped doing anything and just wandered around at the feet of the machine dragon. Because it seemed that Li was doing something, he didn't dare to make a sound.

His intuition and experience told him that it was best not to speak at this time, because he had been scolded by Aye the last time he did so in the maze. He still hadn't learned his lesson, and he had to remember this point. It was a test point.

“Savi,” Li suddenly called out to Savi, “It’s over there, in that pile of stuff next to the dragon’s left foot. Help me get all that stuff out of there.”

"Oh well!"

Savi was initially a little confused when he was suddenly called away, but after hearing that Li said it was such a simple matter, he was now full of energy and ready to do it.

Savi leaped onto the back of the dragon and then jumped directly to its left foot. He immediately found the pile of things that Li had mentioned and began to clear it away by circulating all his magic power.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li ran down quickly and rushed to Savi's side to help him. Li could even pry open something that looked very heavy with his bare hands without using magic, which startled Savi. Then, for some reason, he started to struggle with Li, trying his best to pry open the things.

"Ah, I see it." Rie saw the one she had been looking for.

"what……?"

Exhausted and panting, Saiwei's vision blurred. He paused for a moment to catch his breath before he could see the thing.

"Hey, hey, hey, isn't this a person?! Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"

After discovering that what was trapped underneath was a person, Saiwei immediately sped up and removed everything that was pressing down on top of them.

“Ah, because it’s her…” Li said helplessly, “If it’s her, then everything will be fine.”

"Huh?" Savi didn't quite understand what she was saying. "This is a matter of life and death."

“Sevi, you know what? This world is full of wonders to me.” Li suddenly started talking to himself. “Magic, demons, demon kings and heroes, these are all very ordinary.”

"Wait, wait, wait? Are you broken?" Saiwei touched her forehead worriedly. "Are you alright? You don't seem that hot."

*Smack.* "Ouch?!"

"These are all very ordinary things, right?"

Li stared at Saiwei with an incredibly chilling smile. Saiwei could only nod in panic, because Li in this state possessed extraordinary charisma, which he simply could not resist.

“But what’s even more unbelievable is this person…” Li said helplessly, covering her face and pointing to the person buried under the pile of things, “Do you think she’s dead?”

"Ugh! Don't say such unlucky things! Quickly help me get this thing out of my way!"

"No, I'll show you a magic trick."

"Aha!?"

The two had been having a meaningless conversation since the beginning, and Saiwei was starting to give up. He nodded and decided to temporarily satisfy Li's little mood, which seemed to be the best option.

Li used teleportation to have another version of herself throw a bag of potato chips over. This time, she deliberately positioned herself facing Sevier, with her hands behind her back. However, the magic light couldn't be hidden anymore, but that didn't matter.

"Qiang~"

As if by magic, Li produced the bag of potato chips and opened it. Then, the person buried underneath reacted; he sniffed the smell and suddenly jumped up, despite the heavy weight pressing down on him.

"Potato chips! I smell potato chips! Give me some potato chips!"

"Explain to me why it turned out this way before I give it to you."

Bang.

Without hesitation, Li hit the person in front of him with the bag of potato chips, waking him from his dream.

"Oh! Oh! Shop owner! Are you here to deliver potato chips to me?!"

"Waaaaah!? Wait?! Don't hug me!? Can't you listen to me?!"

You all know who that person is, right? She's the culprit behind all this, the genius who often goes berserk—Kana.

“…Now I suddenly understand why you said this is unbelievable.” Savi’s expression twitched.

Even the heavy object that Saiwei couldn't push away in one go, this seemingly frail Kana pushed away easily and sat up. Isn't that incredible?

"Before that, help me pull her away!"

Ri struggled in Kana's arms, trying to push her away, but Kana in this state made Ri suspect that her stats had increased tenfold, and she couldn't break free at all.

Li once again began to doubt whether his Dragon King power was real.

Chapter 32 What to do when your girlfriend is angry? Urgent, waiting online.

“I knew you’d be here…” Ning looked at Li helplessly. “Really… if I leave you alone for even a little while, you’ll start causing me trouble everywhere.”

"terribly sorry……"

Until Alice and the others arrived, Rido was kept restrained by Kana, because it was inconvenient for Sevi to touch two young girls inappropriately. Although this behavior was very gentlemanly, Rido would definitely deduct points from him!

After Alice and the others arrived at the scene, Ning walked straight over, grabbed the bag of potato chips from Ri's hand, and threw it away. Kana immediately left Ri like a dog and ran after the potato chips.

Unexpectedly, Akatsuki grabbed the bag of potato chips. When she saw Kana chasing after her, she naively thought it was a ghost-catching game and ran away with the chips. Hopefully, she won't get lost in the workshop.

Compared to that, Ning is now extremely angry, more so than ever before. Although she appears calm, you can tell she is very angry.

Ning used to be very intense when she was angry, but now she was surprisingly calm, like the calm before a storm. Li had unknowingly succumbed to her power.

Moreover, Ning had deliberately emphasized the words "cause trouble" in her words. Li had no idea what kind of trouble she had caused Ning, and for a moment she didn't know how to resolve it. So she sat there with her head down, not daring to look at Ning.

Because of the unapproachable atmosphere, Alice and the others didn't dare to approach and just stood aside watching the situation unfold. Alice then had someone clean up the mess, which made everyone feel much better.

Although Savi didn't know what was happening, his intuition told him that he was in a very dangerous situation and should leave as soon as possible. But for some reason, he couldn't move; his legs seemed to be nailed to the spot.

Moreover, when Ning specifically emphasized "causing trouble," he glared at Saiwei, his watery eyes filled with boundless killing intent, as if they were about to explode at any moment.

"Ah, I'm sorry, my friend Ryo has caused you trouble." Ning walked to his side and extended her hand to him. "I'm Ning, Ryo's irreplaceable partner. It's nice to meet you."

Wow, this woman keeps emphasizing that she's right.

Ning constantly emphasized the sovereignty of reason, revealing a kind smile, but Saiwei saw no smile at all, instead seeing more murderous intent, so sharp that even obsession alone could harm him.

This must be the test! We absolutely cannot back down here!

Savi knew that this was a test from his partner who had always protected Li. If he backed down here, he would probably never be able to get close to Li again.

"Ah, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Savi." Savi also flashed a flawless smile and shook her hand.

Ouch! Ouch! It hurts so much!

The force Ning exerted on this hand far exceeded Saiwei's expectations. This woman was able to hold his hand tightly with a smile on her face without changing her expression, as if she wanted to crush his hand.

Who exactly is this woman?!

Savi started to panic. The seemingly harmless and aloof girl in front of him was more unfathomable than he had imagined. He was prepared to be surrounded by outstanding people, but he never expected to find someone so terrifying!

Hang in there, Saiwei! For tomorrow! Keep going!

Savi tried his best to suppress the pain and keep his expression from becoming strange, maintaining a composed demeanor. However, if Ning were to launch another attack at this moment, Savi would be completely defeated.

"May I ask what my wife just did?" Ning asked with a smile. "I'm very curious about what she did."

As she spoke, she increased her strength, and the ends of her hair began to turn an ominous red—a blood-red filled with murderous intent.

"Oh dear, don't you know?" Saiwei tried his best to maintain a polite smile. "When I saw Li just now, she was troubled by something. She almost bumped into me. Because I was worried about her, I helped her out of her predicament."

"Oh, really? It seems my daughter Li has received quite a bit of care from you." Ning's smile gradually turned cold. "I noticed that at first, but I thought it would be better for her to have some peace and quiet on her own. But now it seems I should thank you."

"Haha, really? You're welcome."

Tsk... a miscalculation.

Ning secretly clicked her tongue in her heart.

She knew from the beginning that Ri was very troubled by this matter, and when she saw that Ri was planning to go and have some peace and quiet, she decided to let Ri be alone.

But she never expected that such a person would appear!

This man in front of her took advantage of Ning's absence, and by the time Ning found out, their relationship had become so close. This was definitely the biggest mistake of her life.

Moreover, this person's attention was almost always on Rin, and there was no doubt that he was interested in Rin. But no matter what the reason, Ning would never let go of the pests surrounding Rin.

But despite Ning's repeated attempts to intimidate him, this man never gave up and stubbornly persisted. Who would have thought that this man had such backbone?

Ning let go of his hand. Holding his hand like that for too long would probably arouse suspicion from others, so she let him go for the time being. He also showed a relieved expression.

This person seemed stronger than she had imagined; even with such great force, she hadn't been able to crush his hand. What was his name again? Sai... Saiwei?

Savi... Savi... Savi?! Oh, I see. Then I absolutely can't let you get away with this, you bastard!

Ning suddenly remembered hearing his name somewhere before. After thinking about it carefully, she remembered who he was.

"Then let's explain now." Ning decided to put that aside for the time being. "Why did this place explode, Alice?"

“Haa…do I even need to say it?” Alice sighed helplessly.

The explosion was caused by Kana having a sudden inspiration at work and going berserk, conducting an experiment to develop a machine dragon, which of course failed and resulted in an explosion.

Such incidents have occurred many times in the workshop, and the members are used to them. The reason why they remain remarkably calm in these situations is now clear.

To prevent Kana's rampage from affecting others, Alice specially arranged a studio for her. With her hands-on skills, she could make anything by herself as long as she was motivated.

This is the genius of Sanko Workshop... and also the incredible nature of Sanko Workshop.

Chapter 33 The 'Flame' of Akihabara

Because Ning entered working mode, Li and Saiwei escaped a disaster, but Li had a feeling that this matter would not end so easily.

While there's still a chance, figuring out the reason as soon as possible and calming Ning's anger is the top priority. However, no matter how she thinks about it, Li has no clue why Ning suddenly got angry.

In the end, all she did was save me from being controlled by Kana... It's a simple matter, right? It shouldn't have caused Ning any trouble.

"What exactly happened...?"

Li walked beside Saiwei, deep in thought. Saiwei was also deep in thought, but he was thinking about something different from what Li was thinking about—a question that concerned his future.

Who exactly is Ning?

Judging from their relationship, Ning seems to be in a higher position than Li, but from the exchange just now, it is clear that Ning values ​​Li very much and has no intention of backing down no matter what.

Ning's stance seems to be quite complex.

Neither of them knew that their current actions were what truly angered Ning, adding fuel to the fire, and that Li was probably already doomed.

Later, Li Zaining learned that the production of electrical boxes at Sangu Workshop was now on track, but the materials for cotton lamps were very scarce, and it would take some time before they could be put into formal production.

After things calmed down a bit, Li and Ning returned to their previous state, working together like perfect partners.

Alice has produced enough cotton lamps to supply the entire Akihabara, and tonight there will be a carnival, a carnival about cotton lamps.

It is said that the residents of Akihabara have even made their own cotton lamps that emit other colors of light. This was an unexpected development, but it was something that Riku was happy to see.

“This is the first step in a world revolution! That’s how they describe cotton lamps,” Alice relayed to them with a wry smile.

These are the reactions of Akihabara residents to the cotton lamp. They love this novel gadget, which can be played with and used for lighting.

Ryou proposed the idea of ​​building a "power plant" on that vacant lot in Akihabara, since Sanko Workshop's current technology is already capable of producing super-large electrical boxes.

Centralizing these electrical boxes and charging residents for electricity supply wouldn't be a bad idea... but it seems like it's too late now, as small electrical boxes have already been installed in every household in Akihabara.

Well, this matter can't be rushed. We need to solicit the opinions of the residents, or perhaps we could extend the 'power plant' plan to areas outside of Akihabara.
