"Brother Taoist, she bullied me, please come and save me, Brother Taoist."

"This is a matter between her and me. Brother Taoist, you are not allowed to interfere!" Hei Honghong slapped Ouyang Xuan back. "Even if Brother Taoist came today, he couldn't save you. Today, I will let you know why the flowers are so red."

"Don't think I'm afraid of you. I'm as strong as you!"

"Really? Then let me see it for myself!"

Because the fight between the two Honghongs did not involve any magical powers, it was just a playful fight between two beautiful girls. After making sure that it would not cause any big noise, Ouyang Jun turned his attention back to the skewers in front of him.

Today is the day the Ou family moves, from their already cramped single apartment to a much larger one. However, because there are too many residents, all seven or eight rooms are full at once. However, Ouyang Xuan still kept his promise to Keke and reserved a room for Keke at home.

Moving party. As the name suggests, it was not Ouyang Xuan who proposed it, but Yang Nai who came up with it. For this purpose, he even got the key to the rooftop from the administrator so that Ouyang Xuan and a dozen other people could hold a barbecue party on the rooftop.

As Ouyang Xuan's employee, Hina was naturally on the invitation list, and Haimeng and Leizi were also here. Ouyang Xuan was skewering meat with Hina and Leizi. When Haimeng skewered several kilograms of meat on a skewer and tried to put it on the grill, she was driven away by Leizi, the chef today, to set the table with Qinzi.

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Ouyang Jun spoke first after feeling that Yang Cai was glancing at him for the 130th time today.

"Haha." Hina laughed awkwardly. "It's nothing. It just feels like a huge change. I just went to school for a day and came back without going on a single mission with the president, and then the president got two girlfriends. It feels like a plot in a game."

"Just let it happen naturally." Ouyang Xuan really felt that the relationship between him and the two Honghongs was the result of letting nature take its course.

"Let nature take its course?" Hina's words sounded thoughtful.

Miss Hong Hong and the president have only been reunited for a month and it's all natural. So, I... Ahhh!! Amano Haruna, what are you thinking?! The president is so powerful, so he must be worthy of someone like Miss Hong Hong, who can single-handedly wipe out an entire army. But, but what if, the president and I...

Because her mind was full of random thoughts, Hina had no extra attention to her hands. When she was woken up by Lei Zi, she found that her skewers were full of green peppers. Rongrong, who was sitting next to her, looked at Hina with disgust. Rongrong wondered if Hina's tongue was broken. How could she like to eat green peppers so much?

After waking up, Hina hurriedly untied her green pepper skewers under Rongrong's gratified gaze, and skewered the meat in the order of meat, green peppers, meat and vegetables. She was so busy that Hina didn't notice the aunt-like smile of her good friend, Saten Ruiko. While Ruiko was skewering the meat skillfully, she looked back and forth between Ouyang Falcon and Hina, as if she was ready to see something on their faces.

It seems that Amano-san needs a life talk. Love detective Ruiko-chan is online!

"Oh ha yo!"

Before anyone was seen, Qianshu's energetic voice reached the rooftop.

"Qianshu-chan has arrived at the destination safely. The escorted items have been delivered. Liko-Liko's special cake combination has been delivered. Please sign for it, senior!"

Qianshu, wearing the red uniform of Licorice, jumped to the rooftop. As expected of a high-level Licorice, Qianshu's body jumped vigorously, but the cake box in her hand did not shake at all, and the cake inside was safe and sound.

The person who came in after Chitsuka was naturally Takina, who was also from Licorice. Unlike the energetic Chitsuka, Takina seemed particularly steady. She held the cake box in her hand as if it were a valuable item, looking carefully at her feet and around to make sure that nothing would happen to the goods in her hands.

"Wow wow wow! It's meat!" Chitose dropped the cake and ran to the skewers with a greedy look on her face. "Senior, don't skewer vegetables, which is a depressing sight. Give us more meat. Humans live to eat meat."

"I'll give you a skewer of pure meat later."

"Great!" Qian Shu cheered and presented Ouyang Sun with her creative dish. "My visit wasn't in vain. I've prepared something delicious for you, Senior. This is Licorice's strongest trump card, a burger I made myself."

Judging from the appearance, what Qianshu took out seemed to be an ordinary three-patty burger, but the color and aroma of the three patties were inconsistent, as if the patties were made with three different kinds of meat.

The burger that Qianshu took out was her special European-style Grand Slam burger. The patties were made from pork, beef and chicken, three meats with completely different tastes and textures, paired with yellow mustard sauce, ketchup, lettuce and tomato. A skewer held the piled burger in place to prevent the burger from falling over before it was eaten.

"What is this, a Chimera Burger?"

"Really? This burger was inspired by you, Senior. I used three kinds of meat at once. It's delicious. Come and try it, Senior."

Under Qianshu's expectant gaze, Ouyang Jun took a bite reluctantly. The chaotic texture and taste collided back and forth in his mouth. It was as if all his taste cells had failed. He could not tell what he was chewing in his mouth. There was too much yellow mustard sauce and he could not taste the taste of ketchup at all.

He really wanted to spit out the burger from his mouth, but when Ouyang Sun looked up, he saw Qian Shu's eyes flashing with expectation. He could only eat the burger in his mouth with great reluctance. But Ouyang Sun really didn't want to eat the remaining big piece.

Fortunately, Qianshu didn't stare at Ouyang Xuan too much. She waited until Ouyang Xuan finished eating his hamburger before leaving. After seeing Ouyang Xuan start to eat his hamburger, Qianshu felt that he had won, and began to jump and run to Yang No and Xue No to prepare drinks.

Casting a pleading look to her lover, Yang No pretended to talk to Yukino enthusiastically, Kotoko silently lowered her head to tidy up the table, and 2B, relying on her micron-level control, adjusted the charcoal in the oven to ensure that the fire could reach the optimal level when the group grilled meat later. She had no time to look at Ouyang Falcon.

It's not that Haruno and the others were indifferent to the situation, but it was Kotoko and Haruno who gave Chizuka a lot of suggestions when she was developing this hamburger. They suggested adding more mustard sauce and just a little bit of ketchup to enhance the flavor. One kind of meat would be too monotonous, so it would be better to add a few kinds of meat to enrich the taste and texture.

Before Takina, Kotoko and Haruno had already tasted Chitsuka's special burger. Although Chitsuka modified and made it according to their suggestions, Kotoko and Haruno felt as if they had exchanged for a prop that could see other people's real names when they took the first bite. Then they saw that the words floating above Chitsuka's head were not Nishiki Chitsuka, but Nishiki Yatsuka.

If it wasn't Xiao Ba, how could he make such a terrible burger? Although we were the ones who made the suggestion, don't you have any responsibility at all, Qian Shu?

"Rongrong, aren't you hungry?" Ouyang Xuan pushed the burger to Rongrong. "We still have a while to go, and you're hungry too. Come and eat something first."

Ouyang Xuan activates his skills to divert the trouble away!

Rongrong looked at Ouyang Xuan speechlessly. She didn't expect that Ouyang Xuan, who was the most serious person on weekdays, had been led astray in recent times. In Rongrong's opinion, the murderer who led Brother Ou astray was undoubtedly her sister, well, the silly-looking sister.

Although she felt helpless about Ouyang Xuan pushing the burger that looked very delicious in front of her, Rongrong was, after all, the woman who would be called the Thousand-Faced Demon in the future. Rongrong took the burger and ran away. It was not that Rongrong wanted to throw the burger away, but she trotted to the two Honghongs and told them that Ouyang Xuan had taken a bite of it.

In an instant, the battle between the two Honghongs changed from who was the trash to who could eat the Taoist brother's hamburger. However, because now, in addition to being one person, the two Honghongs also had the relationship of sisters, they would not fight directly. Instead, their front armor collided, and their emerald green eyes and red eyes stared at each other, neither of them giving in.

Although Hei·Honghong has been subdued by Ouyang Xuan, she does not intend to be completely equated with Bai·Honghong. There are still many differences between the two in some small details. Bai·Honghong wears a pink and white skirt, while Hei·Honghong wears a red and white one. Bai·Honghong's eyes are emerald green when she does not use her magic power, while Hei·Honghong's eyes are red. Bai·Honghong's fingers and toes are painted with pink nail polish, while Hei·Honghong has nothing painted on.

I don’t know what the final outcome of the fight was, maybe it was a draw or something.

Yang Nai gave everyone a drink, and with a cheer, today's small barbecue party began. Fortunately, the clouds blocked most of the scorching sun, so even at noon, the group of people on the balcony would not be too hot to bear.

"Brother Taoist, what's wrong with you?" With her mouth full of barbecue, Bai Honghong's speech was a little unclear.

"I'm looking for some Grape Fanta. I just saw it." Ouyang Xuan was rummaging through a box full of ice cubes.

"Brother Taoist wants to drink grape juice." Bai Honghong's ahoge trembled and noticed the exclamation mark on Ouyang Falcon's head. "I'll go down and get it for Brother Taoist."

After swallowing the barbecue in her mouth, Bai Honghong ran downstairs quickly. Because the elevator was not as fast as her feet, Bai Honghong did not wait for the elevator and slowly climbed from the first floor to the top floor. She saw a pink afterimage passing by in the stairwell, and then she ran to the door of the new apartment.

"Oh, the barbecue party is over so soon." The purple-haired girl leaned against the door boredly, looking at Bai Honghong who pushed open the door and walked in. She continued, "Well, I really miss the smell of barbecue on you. It's a pity that I'm dead and can't eat barbecue anymore."

"Oh, new tenant." The purple-haired girl suddenly remembered something. "Although you can't see me, please allow me to introduce myself. I'm a ground-bound spirit who has lived in this apartment for many years and can't find a way to leave. I'd appreciate your guidance from now on."

"Really? How did a ghost escape from Hina? Taoist Brother should buy Hina a new jar." Bai Honghong muttered. She glanced around and found an empty jar at the entrance. "Luckily, I got some spells from my other self. It would be a real bummer if Taoist Brother had to work overtime on such a happy day."

"Hey, is that girl with red eyes your sister? Are you twins? You look exactly alike. And, are you all that boy's lovers? Is it a harem? I didn't expect that in modern society, there are actually people who have harems. Do you guys live in harmony? Do you guys fight? Do you fight a lot at night? Even though I'm a ghost, I want to rest at night. It would be terrible if I kept hearing your noise."

Because she hadn't spoken to anyone for a long time, the purple-haired girl talked incessantly until she saw Bai Honghong pick up a glass jar and point it at her.

“Eh, Aa ...

With an inaudible cry from others, the purple-haired girl was sucked into the jar. Bai Honghong thought it was a ghost that ran out of Hina's backpack, and casually put the jar at the entrance. After the barbecue party ended in the evening, Hina put the green plants that Yukino had given her at the entrance, which just covered the jar that Bai Honghong had placed. By the time the jar was full of decorations, the jar could no longer be seen. By the time the purple-haired girl was remembered and released from the jar, more than a week had passed.

Chapter 1 A Heartless Woman

It was still dawn in the morning and those who were exercising had already gotten up. Takina and Chitsuka were both wearing their Lycoris uniforms. This specially designed uniform could not only be disguised as a school uniform, but was also an excellent sportswear with breathable and antiperspirant effects. Originally, DC's design department wanted to add bulletproof function to the uniform, but unfortunately it was abandoned because it was too heavy after adding it.

On the grass in the park, Qianzhu sat cross-legged on the ground, picking at the weeds out of boredom, yawning and looking in the direction of Takina and Ouyang Shun.

"Empty your mind and imagine that you are surrounded by Qi. Every inch of your skin can touch the energy called Qi. You don't need to actively sense it. Just imagine that you are surrounded by it like swimming."

Takina was sitting on the grass like she was meditating, and Ouyang Falcon was teaching Takina how to transform her innate spiritual power into acquired magic power.

As a fellow Lycoris, Qianzhu certainly knows the importance of having strong personal strength. When Takina proposed to have Ouyang Falcon give her special training, Qianzhu also signed up, but was rejected by Ouyang Falcon.

[The five internal organs of the human body correspond to gold, wood, water, fire, and earth respectively. To practice the spell I taught Takina, you need to generate the energy of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth from your own organs and put them into operation. But your heart——]

Due to physical reasons, when Takina was training, Qianzhu could only accompany her by the side, watching Takina and Ouyang Falcon with boredom. On the first day, Qianzhu's unbalanced mentality was full of unhappiness on her face. Until today, Qianzhu's face is still full of unhappiness. This feeling of being excluded is too uncomfortable.

Ouyang Falcon did not dare to teach the magic of Longhu Mountain to others without the permission of his master. The magic that Ouyang Falcon taught to Takina was also simple magic to strengthen the body, which was very suitable for Takina who was fighting with the enemy in the hail of bullets. Qianzhu had the ability to dodge bullets 100%, and Takina was just a pure mortal, so it would not hurt to learn more.

While Takina was learning, Ouyang Falcon wouldn't really let Qianshu cosplay as a lawn mower. He also taught Qianshu some methods that were not magic, but were more common physical exercise methods in the mainland world. However, Qianshu was very skeptical about the effect of this Tai Chi called a Big Watermelon, even though Ouyang Falcon told him that this was taught to disciples by the Wudang sect in the mainland.

"When did Takina and I become so close to our seniors?" Bored, Qianzhu began to think about the changes in his, Takina's, and Ouyang Falcon's relationships. "It seems that from that day on, our relationship with our seniors became quite good."

----

In Riko Riko's dressing room, Chizuki rested her chin on her hand, thinking about a problem.

"Takina, do you think ghosts really exist?"

"Huh?" Takina, who was changing into her Lykoris uniform, was stunned by Chizuka's question. "Didn't you see a ghost the other day?

"But that's Yamashita, not just any ghost."

"That's the ghost down the mountain. Even though it's a huge shock to my worldview, I still believe in it. Ghost." Takina closed the cabinet door solemnly. "If Senior hadn't been there with Riko Riko that day, we would have been in great danger. Although you're a good fighter, Chitose, you're still powerless against a ghost."

"Ahhhh~~" Qianshu shook his head in distress, "Of course I know, it's all thanks to that guy. If he wasn't there, Shanxia would have completely become a water ghost and would have stayed underwater for the rest of his life."

"But even though I saw the battle of that guy from the mainland with my own eyes, I'm still worried about ghosts and monsters around me..." Qianshu raised his head and said excitedly, "I feel super excited. That's a ghost, that's a monster, ah, I really want to see a monster with my own eyes."

"Haven't you already seen the ghost that Mr. Yamashita has turned into?"

"Takina." Chizuka said helplessly, "That's Yamashita, too familiar. Even if Yamashita turned into a ghost or a monster, it wouldn't feel real at all."

"Can we ask that guy surnamed Ou to take us to see the monsters? We are two top-notch beauties. He will definitely agree if we ask him. He has so many girls around him. It's obvious that he is a lecherous guy." Qian Shu shook his head vigorously, sweeping the idea out of his head. "No, no, although I hate that guy, I have to admit that his fighting ability is much higher than ours. I won't be able to defeat him then."

"Takina~~"

"The time is almost up." Takina ignored the emotions in Qianzhu's words and just reminded Qianzhu of the time.

"Oh, it's already this time."

As expected of the strongest among the Lycoris, Qianzhu adjusted his mentality in an instant, threw out all the thoughts about Ouyang Falcon and monsters and ghosts in his mind, and began to think about today's commission, which was to serve as a bodyguard for an old man who returned to his country and take him on a tour of Tokyo. It was a very simple commission and there shouldn't be any accidents. The old man's wife and children were killed by the killer. Qianzhu and Takina only had to ensure that he would not be killed by the killer.

At the same time as Qianshu pushed open the door and came out of the lounge, the door of Likolis was also pushed open. An old man wearing strange glasses and an oxygen tube walked into Likolis in a wheelchair, with bodyguards in black suits guarding him.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time." After Qianshu said this, he was also frightened by the old man's cyberpunk look.

"I'm relying entirely on machines to keep myself alive now. You must feel very strange, right?" The old man's voice came not from his mouth, but from the equipment next to the wheelchair.

"That's not true. I'm the same." Qianshu made a heart shape on his chest. "Here."

"A pacemaker?"

"It's all mechanical." Chizukura tapped his chest. "If this were a special effects movie, I'd be a cyborg who can transform. I'm Chizukura, the cyborg with an atomic heart. My special move is bullet dodging."

"Hey, what is this--" Takina frowned and wanted to ask a question in confusion, but was interrupted by Kurumi.

"Okay, the travel brochure I made last night has been sent to his computer."

"Well then..." Although it was an electric wheelchair, Chitose still held the handle on the back of the wheelchair, "Well then, let's go on our Tokyo sightseeing trip!"

"I'm looking forward to what kind of sightseeing trip the two Miss Licorices have planned for me today." The old man seemed to be infected by Qianshu's cheerfulness and liveliness, and his voice became more fluctuating.

"Um, manager, what Chizuka just said--" Takina wanted to ask Mika, but just like before, Takina's question was interrupted again, but this time it was by Chizuka.

"Takina, it's time to go." Chizuka shouted at the door.

"I'm coming." Takina trotted towards the door. It would be better to ask this question later.

Taking the ferry, Chizuka and Takina pushed the old man along the way to sightsee. After seeing the tower that was blown up, they came to Sensoji Temple, one of the must-see places for most foreigners visiting the island country.

"This is the Wind and Thunder God Gate. The one on the left is the Thunder God, and the one on the right is the Wind God. They are bodyguards protecting the shrine from monsters and other evil creatures." Chizuka introduced the statues standing on both sides of Sensoji Temple to the old man. "Just like Takina and I, but today we are Mr. Matsushita's bodyguards."

"Oh, what a lovely god."

"That's right, Takina and I are really cute."

Chizuka accepted Panasonic's praise with a smile. At the same time, Takina was looking around vigilantly to prevent the existence of the killer mentioned in the intelligence. Based on the moving flow of people, Takina kept thinking of the best escape route in her mind, but she gave up quickly.

"I can't move at all." Takina said helplessly. At this moment, the three of them were being swept along by an endless stream of people. If they moved forward, the people in front wouldn't move, and if they moved backward, the people behind wouldn't move out of the way at all.

"After all, this is Nakamise-dori, the busiest commercial street. It's not just locals, but many foreigners come here. Once we get to Sensoji Temple, things will be much better. There will be fewer people. Hang in there, Mr. Matsushita."

"With two such lovely gods protecting me, I can make it through another day."

"Then let's head towards Sensoji Temple."

Caught in the crowd, Chizu pushed Panasonic's wheelchair little by little to the entrance of Sensoji Temple. When they arrived at the entrance of this antique old building, Panasonic's wheelchair had some trouble. There were quite a lot of people today, and the staff had given the tools for the wheelchair to pass the threshold to other people. Chizu and the others waited for a few minutes before pushing Panasonic into Sensoji Temple.

"Takina, don't be so nervous. Our main task now is to give Mr. Matsushita a tour of the city. It's not good for Takina to have a stern face."

"No need. Let Chizuka handle the introductions." Takina would check with Kurumi through her headset every once in a while to make sure the communication was smooth. "Someone has to be on guard. Since our job now is bodyguards, we should remain vigilant."

"You should be more cheerful, right, Mr. Matsushita?"

"Yes, yes, miss." The mechanical voice coming from Panasonic's computer also contained a feeling of joy and happiness. "Although I mentioned in the intelligence I gave you that there might be assassins who wanted to kill me, that was just an estimate. It has been decades since the deaths of my wife and children. Perhaps those people have forgotten me."

"Just think of today as just hanging out with an old man like me."

Takina opened her mouth and was about to say something when a huge shout erupted from the crowd next to her. Not only did Takina, who was on high alert, subconsciously reach for her waist, but Chizuka also blocked Matsushita with her hips.

"Great luck! Congratulations! Congratulations to this guest for drawing our company's first great luck lottery this year. May the gods bless you."

At the stall where the fortune sticks were being interpreted, the witch waved the bell in her hand vigorously and shouted loudly that someone had drawn a very lucky number. Many people who had come to ask for fortune sticks looked over there with envy. Some people who had not originally asked for fortune sticks also changed their minds and wanted to take advantage of the situation and draw a very lucky number for themselves.

After realizing it wasn't a riot or an attack, Chizuka and Takina relaxed, having been shocked.

"Great! It's a lucky number, President. I've been to the shrine so many times, and this is the first time I've drawn a lucky number."

In front of the stall, Hina was holding the fortune stick in her hand with great joy. You know, before today, the best record Hina had ever gotten when she came to the shrine to draw fortune sticks was a medium-lucky one. Hina was thinking that if most shrines didn't release too many unlucky ones, she might have drawn a few unlucky ones.

"This kind of feudal superstition is not credible at all." Ouyang Xuan shook the Xiaoji in his hand.

"President, it's not appropriate for you to say that," Hina said. "You're already superstitious enough, let alone being considered a feudal superstitious person."

It sounds strange that a Taoist priest says that we should not believe in feudal superstitions.

"Superstition doesn't mean what you said literally. It means..." Ouyang Sun was about to explain the meaning of superstition to Yang Cai when Qianshu's voice came from the side.

"Ah, it's you!"
