Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Chance Encounter
Accompany to shop with a girl is a rather terrifying thing.
Accompany a group of girls shopping?
And to have taken the initiative to suggest going out shopping?
So I think my suggestion to make a large purchase in the morning was simply crazy…
Seeing a few girls not far ahead looking around with great interest, I deeply realized that often, the unlucky ones are those who bring it upon themselves…
“Boss, why do I suddenly have a very bad feeling…”
Sicaro, whom I dragged out from some corner to be a temporary laborer, was still in his regrettable black Superman outfit, but his square and upright face was now showing obvious unease.
Who said that only women have strong sixth senses? This guy’s premonition is pretty accurate too!
I patted this black Superman uncle who I dragged into this tragedy, my face wearing a solemn expression as if we were heading together to a battlefield with no return, and said with weight, “Take care, this is definitely a battle like no other in history.”
Sicaro, frightened by my serious tone, immediately reacted by reflexively covering the suspicious bag at his waist and started to vigilantly eye every potential town official around.
Totally wrong, right? Your reaction doesn’t belong to an Imperial Officer at all! Has your mind been completely taken over by some circular plastic discs?! I should have let Pandora throw you back to the arsenal for a redo, shouldn’t I?
A urge to execute this former Imperial Officer, now completely a street bootleg peddler, for fifteen minutes swept through me; the veins on my forehead throbbed, and I started to look for any vulnerability on Sicaro that could be immediately fatal.
Until something even more terrifying interrupted my plans to set things right.
“Ah Jun,” Qianqian’s cheerful voice came from up ahead, “Look at this bracelet, it’s so pretty! It would really suit Lilina!”
It’s over, the journey to hell has finally officially begun…
Vivacious and pretty like the girl next door, Qianqian; calm, sweet, and with a big sister aura, Big Sister; and Sandora, carrying an exotic charm and inadvertently exuding a noble and haughty demeanor with her every move—any one of these three girls could instantly dominate all visual resources on the street, and now all three of them appearing together, one could imagine how much attention they would attract, catalyzing even more attention, were the three little ones: Lilina, who seemed a bit too energetic along the way, and beside her, Pandora and Visca, who looked exactly alike and appeared blind, being led by hand by some soy sauce guy.
These three sweet angels, who could easily serve my lord just by adding a pair of wings, are now attracting attention. With how developed the internet is today, it wouldn’t take long for them to spark a new wave of attention on major websites—there are many such cases nowadays.
Of course, it’s certain that before such a thing happens, Bubbles would have completely reformatted the entire Earth’s internet…
Here’s a quick mention, the tragic bro who ended up being classified as a soy sauce member because most of the public attention was drawn elsewhere, and only had a big “some” character on his face where his features should be, is me…
“Ha, hey, can you hear me? Spiritual connection is so fun…” Just as I was overwhelmed by the gradually densifying crowd and the continuous incidents of running into telegraph poles, Lilina’s voice suddenly appeared in my mind, “I didn’t expect there to be so many people, Earth is really thriving, I had almost forgotten…”
It’s not like that at all, it’s only thriving around you guys, right? Perhaps the other few blocks have already become deserted like streets urgently evacuated during a war period? Can’t you, a psychology student, even realize this?
But as we moved forward, the crowd that should have been increasing suddenly seemed fewer, and in just a few minutes, the street, which had been as dense as a store entrance during a weekend sale, returned to normal crowd density.
Sandora came up with a giggly smile, whispering, “Just a little bit of psychological suggestion, being surrounded by onlookers doesn’t feel very nice.”

“Well done,” I sincerely praised.
Then, we continued our joyful spree of the two of us getting the short end of the stick while all the girls reaped the benefits…
If it were just Qianqian and a few older girls, it wouldn’t be so bad, since they showed strong interest in every kind of merchandise, but adults still have some self-restraint. What really made my head hurt, however, was a certain loli.
Strictly speaking, it was a certain fake lolita.
Having lived in the Otherworld for so many years, Lilina was extraordinarily excited to finally return to her hometown. She acted like a country girl visiting the city for the first time. She exclaimed loudly at everything she saw, and even Sandora’s spiritual halo couldn’t prevent the passersby from casting frequent sideways glances at this overly vocal young girl. It dramatically increased the pressure I felt along the way. I vaguely realized that Lilina was using this way to express the intense emotions deep in her heart. Of course, there was also genuine novelty: after being away for so long, even a born and bred Earthling like her had to start re-adapting to life on Earth. If she couldn’t quickly bring her mindset back to normal, the psychological pressure she faced would probably be no less than the moment she was thrown into the Otherworld — in some ways, having become half a Blood Elf from Azeroth, Lilina’s return to Earth was essentially her second time crossing worlds.
This was not only obvious to us bystanders, but she herself had come to this realization during the journey back. Now it seems, studying psychology really does involve beings made of special material; firstly, her own ability to psychologically adjust and adapt was truly formidable…
Putting myself in her shoes, if I were thrown into another world for over a decade, and turned into a helpless child confronted with war, plague, famine, and even Doomsday…
Then I could only remark, this girl who crossed worlds is really strong—certainly much stronger than me, who carries various influential auras but deep down still chases the life goal of idling around…
As for the other girl showing a strong curiosity about everything around her, that was Visca, my otherworldly little sister who dropped from the sky.
It was her first time visiting our world.
Compared to her reticent sister, Visca was much livelier. Moreover, “going out to play with her own family” was definitely a momentous event for this child who had always considered herself just a clone. This became apparent when, at the beginning of the trip, Visca took even more time than Qianqian to pick out her clothes—resulting in Pandora sternly scolding her sister for her behavior that severely violated Imperial Army discipline and lacked the qualities an Imperial Soldier should possess. This small dispute between the awkward sisters naturally evolved into a squabble between little girls…
However, anyone could see that the relationship between these bickering twin sisters was closer than one might imagine—perhaps due to the intrinsic bond of being united in spirit from birth. Despite initially despising Pandora intensely, once they truly started living together, Visca involuntarily gave this “annoying” sister a very important place in her heart. She really was an exceedingly stubborn little sister.
“Brother, who is that man? Why is he always looking at us?”
As I was contemplating, this clear voice interrupted my thoughts. Visca tugged at the hem of my clothing and then pointed across the street.
“Cough cough… blind man, blind man,” I hurriedly pressed down Visca’s hand, then twisted her little head back to the front. This girl had so quickly forgotten what I had told her. Although still with her eyes closed, the fact that she undoubtedly pointed out someone staring at us from across the street was even more surprising!
It seems I had to educate this impromptu little sister about life on Earth just like I initially did with Pandora…
“Is it Lin Feng?”
Hearing Visca’s question, Qianqian, who was placing a huge parcel on Sicaro, now resembling a moving mound, and planning to head to the next boutique, looked up and said this after glancing at the person across the street.
“You guys go ahead, I’ll go check.”
After dropping that line, I turned around under Sicaro’s sorrowful gaze and stepped forward without hesitation…
Then I was firmly held back by two little tag-alongs.
“I want to stay with brother,” Visca declared steadfastly.
“That’s right,” Pandora said in her most word-saving manner.
So, I dragged the two little burdens away from the terrifying shopping brigade, leaving only Uncle Hei Chao with a gradually soul-detached and hollow-eyed look to accompany a group of beauties of various sizes as they continued their seemingly endless shopping spree…
