?


    [Master, do you really want to save Lah? You should remember this is your best chance to kill her. If you kill her now, you can take all of her luck points.]


    Hikaru shook his head at that and said: "She saved me, then I will save her too."


    [Ding! Start withdrawing.]


    "Don''t talk nonsense, are there any healing potions?"


    [Yes.] Rika spoke up.


    At this moment, a small test tube appeared in his hand, inside the test tube there was a red liquid resembling blood.


    Hikaru didn''t think much, he immediately opened the lid of the liquid bottle and brought it in front of Lah.


    "Drink it!"


    Lah couldn''t hear anything right now, it was like she was in the middle of a storm, the only sound she could hear was the wind.


    The scene before her eyes gradually blurred, and it was as if they were about to disappear.


    Hikaru did not dare to hesitate, he opened the lid of the bottle, squeezed her cheeks to open her mouth, then poured all the liquid in the bottle inside her mouth.


    At this moment, Lah realized she was standing in front of a river, surrounded by white, without any other colors.


    ''Heh?! Am I dead?''


    Lah shook her head and sighed, it seemed that her life had ended.


    "Don''t you hate him?"


    Suddenly, a voice rang out. Lah didn''t know where the voice came from, she didn''t even know if it was male or female, but she was calm.


    "Him? You mean Hikaru?"


    "That''s right. You died to protect him, don''t you regret it? Don''t you hate him?"


    The voice continued to resound, but Lahughed and shook her head. She gently sat by the riverbank, and let her feet sink into the river.


    However, she only felt the coldness of the river as if it were a cier.


    "Regret? If I did, I would never regret it. I only regret one thing."


    "What?"


    Lah put her hands behind her back and looked up. There was no sky, just a white space.


    She smiled and said, "What I regret is… Heh?!"


    Before Lah could finish speaking, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm, then pulled her roughly.


    Lah was startled, but a secondter, she opened her eyes to see Hikaru looking down at her.


    "This is…" Lah said weakly.


    Hikaru sighed: "You''re fine, the bullet is out, you''re safe."


    Lah didn''t show any joy when she heard that, she just reached out her hand and stroked his face.


    "Thank you."


    He shook his head: "No, I''m the one who should thank you. If you hadn''t helped me with that bullet, I would probably have died."


    Lah smiled, she didn''t say anything more, as she just looked at Hikaru''s face.


    As Hikaru felt Lah''s gaze, he felt a bit embarrassed, he didn''t know why after waking up, she was acting like a different person.


    He shook his head, took out something, and gave it to her.


    Lah saw the thing and realized it was a bullet, but it had four pointed legs around it.


    "This is the bullet that went into your body." Hikaru exined: "It''s like a normal bullet, however, after entering your body, these four legs will open and release a terrible poison that will kill you."


    "Even after that, these four legs will continuously drill deeply inside your body, destroying your internal organs."


    Lah nced at the bullet, then stared at Hikaru again.


    Hikaru: "..."


    "Are you listening to anything?"


    "Of course I''m listening."


    "Haizzz." Hikaru sighed, he felt that Lah was gradually getting weirder. However, that''s fine, as long as she didn''t be his enemy.


    Lah smiled and said, "Hikaru, did anyone tell you that you''re handsome?"


    Hikaru: "..."


    He reached out and touched Lah''s forehead: "No heat, no fever. Or… has the stimnt entered your nervous system?"


    Lah pouted and said, "Huh! Isn''t it okay to give you a littlepliment?"


    Hikau shook his head: "I know I''m handsome. Even if you don''t say it, I''m still handsome."


    "Ah! You''re over-confident, I didn''t think that you would be a narcissist."


    "Sorry for being so handsome."


    "Hahaha…" Lah tried to sit up, suddenly, she realized she was shirtless right now. The only piece of cloth covering her was the jacket that Hikaru was wearing earlier.


    "Just now… your shirt was dirty, and you were in critical condition so I couldn''t put your shirt back on. That''s why…um"


    Lah suddenly put her index finger on his lips, she smiled, her face a little pink, and full of charm.


    "So… Can I borrow your shirt?" Lah held Hikaru''s coat with her free hand and brought it to her nose: "Um… the scent is very manly."


    Hikaru: "..."


    ''You''re luring others tomit crimes, aren''t you? Is that what a police officer should do?''


    He shook his head and said, "It''s up to you."


    "But… how did you know then that someone was sneaking at us?"


    Lah shrugged: "I don''t know, I just sensed that you were in danger."


    "So… why did you take that bullet for me?"


    Lah tilted her head, thought for a moment, then said, "Hm… I don''t know, my body just acted on its own."


    Hikaru frowned, he felt that the reason she gave wasn''t convincing, but he didn''t want to focus on that either.


    "You..." Lah suddenly said, her face flushed, her expression a little embarrassed: "Can you turn away? I need to get dressed."


    "Ah! Okay…" Hikaru turned around, he was feeling extremely confused. Why was Lah so obedient and shy now?


    ''Could it be… that poison really attacked her brain so her behavior and thinking were affected as well.''


    ''Rakan is really careful, he wants to kill me by any means possible.''


    "Done!"


    Lah''s voice rang out, Hikaru turned his head to see Lah wearing his slightly oversized coat on her which made her look adorable.


    The zipper had not been fully pulled, only stopping in the middle of her chest to reveal a piece of snow-white skin, the top was also decorated with a few drops of sweat, she was so seductive to the point that it could kill.


    Hikaru almost couldn''t help it.


    A beautiful woman wearing a man''s shirt, revealing a bit of her chest, was both discreet but attractive.


    Especially since she''s wearing his shirt.


    She is wearing his shirt.


    She is wearing his shirt.


    Important things need to be said three times.


    "You..."


    "Heh?! Don''t you like me wearing your shirt?" Lah said softly, a shy smile on her face.


    "Okay, it''s up to you."


    "Hehehe…" She smiled triumphantly, Hikaru felt a headache again.


    ''Women are indeed confusing creatures.'' He thought to himself, then raised the bullet and asked: "Did you see the person who fired this bullet? Or guess who shot me?"


    Even though Hikaru already knew the answer, he still wanted to see if Lah could guess the killer.


    Lah held the bullet with a strange shape in her hand, then threw it behind her back.


    "Heh!? What the hell are you doing?" Hikaru asked, confused.


    "If you know how to fight, then why keep that bullet?"


    Hearing Lah''s words, he immediately asked: "Who?"


    "Definitely the young man who owns the armored vehicle we met this morning."


    "Why do you think that he is the one?" Hikaru felt a little surprised that Lah was able to guess that the person who did this was Rakan.


    Lah crossed her arms over her chest, as she exined: "The Drones he controls are of the kind we''ve never seen, so he certainly possesses some kind of advanced technology."


    "Given the size of that bullet and the perception of my wound, it should be possible to shoot at a decent distance, about 200-300 meters."


    "However, I did not see anyone or anything suspicious in that area. That proves he used some kind of Drone, hid in the surrounding buildings and fired that bullet."


    "But… to do that, he needs to know our exact location…"


    Before Lah finished her sentence, she checked around Hikaru''s coat and discovered a very small chip.


    "That is…"


    "Location chip." Lah frowned and said, "Maybe when we were fighting the Drones, he put these on us."


    At first, he was only about 80% sure, but now he was 100% sure that it was Rakan.


    "Do you know that person?"


    Hikaru nodded. The car is an extremely advanced technology, even the technology on that car is far beyond the technology that humanity possesses."


    "He also has a younger sister, named Aiko. However, they are not siblings, Aiko was adopted by Rakan''s parents from the orphanage when she was young."


    Hearing Hikaru''s words, Lah smiled: "Looks like what I guessed when we first met was correct. You seem to know quite well about this world and special people, don''t you?"


    Hikaru didn''t refute but didn''t confirm either, he just kept silent.


    "Alright!" Lah sighed: "Haizz, I will not care about this anymore, rest assured. Because…"


    She suddenly approached Hikaru, then reached out and stroked his face: "You are very interesting, my man."


    "Your man? Since when did I be your man?"


    "Heh?! So what do you think Velys will think when she sees me like this?"


    Hikaru was startled. That''s right, if Velys saw Lah like this, no matter how he exined it, Velys would certainly not believe that there was nothing going on between him and Lah.


    ''Wait! Why am I worried Velys will misunderstand?''


    Hikaru shook his head and said, "It''s up to you, I don''t care."


    "Ah! You saw my whole body, now you are abandoning me. You really are a heartless man." Lah pretended to cry.


    "Don''t pretend, I didn''t see anything either. Besides… at that time I just wanted to save you."


    "I don''t care. I saved your life."


    "I also saved your life." Hikaru didn''t give up, as he frowned.


    "You… are you a man? Why are you always rejecting a beautiful girl that is trying to approach you? Aren''t I pretty?"


    "No, you''re beautiful, but you''re too smart."
