I'm in the Ark, a player.

There were some cards on the coffee table.

Opposite her was a man wearing a pink, fluffy bunny-ear onesie with a hood.

He was standing on the sofa, a card held between his fingers, held high above his head, reflecting slightly under the living room lights.

"Can't even struggle anymore!"

Can't resist my perfect terminal?!

Then I will unleash a utter defeat upon you!!!

He grinned maliciously and swung the card forward, the movement so exaggerated that even the two rabbit ears on his hat swayed.

"Monster Card - Direct Attack!"

"Damn it!"

Exusiai huddled at the other end of the sofa, clutching several cards to her chest, before finally collapsing weakly against the sofa.

"If I hadn't had such a bad hand at the start, I wouldn't have lost to you..."

"Hehehe, it's useless. This is a game for two people, but only one person can play it!"

Qin Tianling let out a sinister laugh, as if his scheme had succeeded.

Wow, this card game is really good, it's fun!

No wonder some people get so engrossed in card games that they can't tear themselves away.

Exusiai, having lost the card game, turned to look at the door.

Texas, who had barged in, just stood there, still holding her weapon.

"Texas, you're back—wow, do you look like you're looking for a fight?"

"Calm down, this isn't some criminal breaking into the dorm; it's our new colleague who just joined the company."

Texas didn't answer, but turned to look at Qin Tianling.

Qin Tianling took a shower, but besides the smell of shower gel and sulfur soap, Texas could still smell the blood.

Dangerous guy..........

A moment later, the orange-yellow, transparent blade returned to the hilt, and Texas put the hilt away.

This action made Qin Tianling's eyes light up.

"Holy crap, a lightsaber?"

That's so cool! I really want one.

(Texas's weapon in the anime is represented by a lightsaber.)

Qin Tianling turned to look at Exusiai and asked,

"Does that minotaur merchant sell Cherinina's weapon?"

Upon hearing this, Texas's delicate brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again.

They knew my name, that I had just arrived in Lungmen and started working there, and there was this heavy, almost tangible, smell of blood.

Texas stared at Qin Tianling and asked in a cold voice.

"Are you from Syracuse?"

Will the shadows of my past eventually catch up with me?

Syracuse?

Where is that?

Will new maps be unlocked in the future?

Seeing Qin Tianling's genuinely puzzled and clueless expression, Texas realized she had made a mistake.

"...You're not from Syracuse?"

"If you can give me a special series of missions, I can be one."

Qin Tianling replied,

Texas was also somewhat confused.

What does it mean to 'issue exclusive series of tasks'?

I think I'm not quite able to understand what the other person is saying anymore.

"Hey! Qin Tianling!"

I already said I'd try to use code names as much as possible!

"You opened the box so carelessly, you scared Texas half to death!"

"Okay, I'll definitely use code names when I work from now on."

Texas looked at the two of them without saying a word.

Judging from the bloody smell at Qin Tianling, it's definitely not a simple matter...

It must have taken a lot of force, facing many enemies head-on, to have such a strong smell of blood on him.

For some reason, she was reminded of herself when she first arrived in Longmen, how she had been so careless with her actions... No, why think so much?

But Texas is certain of one thing—Qin Tianling is not a Syracusean.

He didn't seem like a Syracusan.

The shadows of his past haven't caught up with him yet.

The next day, in the morning

Texas sat in the driver's seat, one hand on the steering wheel, the other hanging at her side.

The car window was rolled down a crack, and the morning breeze squeezed in through the gap. She was waiting for the others to come over.

The car door opened, and Exusiai and Croissant got in.

Texas glanced at the people inside the car; only Exusiai and Croissant were there.

Her gaze shifted from the passenger seat to the back seat, then back to the direction of the dormitory entrance; no one else came out.

"What about the new guy?"

Texas asked.

"He's there, on the roof of the car."

Exia pointed to the roof of the car.

"Isn't that rock and roll?"

Texas paused for a moment, then opened the car door, leaned out halfway, and saw Qin Tianling sitting on the roof, wearing pink fluffy pajamas and a hood.

Noticing Texas's gaze, he lowered his head and smiled at her.

"Are you... wearing this to work?"

Texas asked, her tone as calm as ever, but this time with a hint of doubt.

She originally wanted to ask why I was sitting on the roof of the car, and whether I would be thrown off or something.

But when Texas saw what Qin Tianling was wearing, all she could think about was that bright pink pajama.

Texas suddenly realized that she might have been thinking too normally about this guy.

Is there a problem?

Qin Tianling countered with a question, glancing down at the pink fluff on his body before looking up again.

"I think this outfit looks great."

What normal gamer could resist such a fluffy pink bunny?!

Do you even know what top-tier aesthetics are?

...

Chapter 63, do you even know what tap dancing and the "love ring" are?! (4k)

Texas ultimately failed to persuade Qin Tianling to change his clothes.

There are two reasons,

The first one is Qin Tianling's other initial outfit, which hasn't dried yet.

Secondly, Qin Tianling genuinely thought this outfit was incredibly cool!

Texas doesn't understand what top-tier aesthetics are, but she does understand what it means to say something that's useless.

As for getting Qin Tianling off the roof of the car?

Texas tried to persuade him too, but naturally, it was futile.

She planned to drive slowly, letting Qin Tianling sit on the roof if he wanted, treating it as if he were carrying a uniquely shaped piece of cargo.

Or perhaps you could teach him a lesson a little faster at the first sharp turn, to make him behave himself.

The result was that her worries were completely unnecessary!

Penguin Logistics' SUVs sped through the city, their engines roaring through the streets.

A large group of vehicles had appeared behind them without them noticing.

Just like in delivery games where mercenaries suddenly appear out of nowhere to hinder the player's deliveries, the current Penguin Logistics delivery system is no different.

Exia leaned halfway out of the rear window and fired, a barrage of rubber bullets shattering the windows of the vehicles behind her. She then retreated back inside, saying incredulously,

"No way, Qin Tianling hasn't been left behind yet!?"

"What do you mean, Exusiai?"

The sound came from the roof of the car.

"—Even though there's a lot of noise, I've added subtitles!"

"No, no, no, I didn't want you to fall!"

Exusiai tilted her head back and shouted towards the roof of the vehicle, the magazine in her hand clicking as she pushed it into the gun. She leaned out again and shouted.

“I’m just so surprised that someone can do that while driving in Texas.”

The conversation was as leisurely as ordinary casual chat, except that the wind was so strong that only a natural person could shout loudly.

Meanwhile, Qin Tianling was still on the roof of the car.

The grappling hook was fixed to the roof rack of the vehicle. Qin Tianling held the grappling hook with one hand and raised the shield with the other to block the arrows that kept coming from behind. No matter how much the off-road vehicle swayed from side to side, he was firmly nailed to the roof of the vehicle as if he were riding a horse.

Because of his flashy and flamboyant attire, the gangsters believed that Penguin Logistics was mocking them, and they attacked him relentlessly.

"Speaking of which, why are there so many gangsters behind us?"

Qin Tianling shouted down to Penguin Logistics below.

That's way too much. If his subordinate, Exusiai, hadn't instructed him not to use live ammunition or kill anyone, Qin Tianling would have already gone straight into a highway-hopping gang fight.

God knows why this Penguin Logistics mission has the same high requirements as the Guard Bureau—they didn't have these kinds of requirements back in Mostima.

Tsk, there's so much unnecessary red tape...

"I don't know, maybe they offended someone sometime in the past, and now that they've seen it, they're just trying to get revenge and regain some face in the underworld?!"

"Anyway, we're using rubber bullets, and they're using rubber crossbow bolts, so there's not much danger, right?"

Exusiai said nonchalantly,

Longmen is truly a wondrous place.

Some gangs have committed all sorts of crimes, including bomb smuggling and using live ammunition.

Some gangs, however, are just like the Penguin Logistics group, honestly following some basic rules, which inexplicably makes them seem polite.
