Under the dark night, the rain is getting heavier.
There were few pedestrians on the empty street, only the dim street lamps stood there dimly.
With one hand in his pocket and the other holding an umbrella, Li Xu strolled leisurely in the rain alone.
“Tata.”
The leather boots stepped on the wet ground, making a slightly dull and hollow sound.
But if you listen carefully, you can hear many small footsteps, as if a group of people are following closely behind Li Xu.
“You can’t hold your breath so soon?”
Li Xu smiled softly, holding an umbrella in his hand, turned around and turned into an empty alley.
“Tick tock.”
Water droplets slide off the black umbrella surface.
Li Xu stopped in the middle of the alley, looking at the killer in black clothes who suddenly appeared at both ends of the alley.
“Ms. Cynthia is very fast.”
Li Xu closed the black umbrella and held it in his hand.
“Anyone fighting the high table has to pay a price.”
Cynthia stood at the front full of aura, her tone was cold and unquestionable.
“Oh, is it?”
Li Xu raised his eyebrows, with an expression of indifference.
Without any nonsense, Cynthia took off the glove of her right hand and threw it on the ground.
This seemed to be a signal to attack.
The killers who were waiting all around rushed towards Li Xu quickly, holding sharp short knives.
“Ninja-inspired killer, weird mash-up.”
Li Xu wasn’t panicking at all, and even made fun of it.
With his physical fitness more than ten times the limit of ordinary people, the movements of the killers seemed to slow down in his eyes.
Easily dodging a short knife that was coming at him, Li Xu grabbed the tip of the black umbrella, hooked the curved umbrella handle around a killer’s neck, and pulled it closer, with a knee on his knee.
There was a piercing bone cracking sound.
The captured killer’s face was covered with blood, his facial features were sunken inwards, and he fell limply.
And Li Xu took the dagger in his hand, looked sideways at the rushing killer, and greeted him with a bloodthirsty smile.
The beautiful and deadly knife lights lit up in the alley.
Before Cynthia could react, she saw Li Xu walking in front of her with a smile on his face, and behind him lay the killer with his throat cut.
“Your Excellency the Adjudicator.”
“Stand back.”
The middle-aged bald-headed man with a big boss air who hadn’t done anything before stepped forward with his eyes slightly squinted.
“My code name is Zero.”
“It’s an honor to fight with Your Excellency.”
“I seem to have seen you before. The puffer fish slices in your Japanese grocery store are pretty good.” Li Xu raised his eyebrows.
“Thank you for the compliment.” Zero smiled, and walked forward cautiously and excitedly with a knife in both hands.
“Why rush to die.” Li Xu shook his head slightly, holding the knife with one hand, with the point of the knife facing the ground diagonally.
“Chime!”
The sound of knives colliding sounded.
The figures of the two passed by each other.
“sharp.”
Zero showed an excited smile, a line of blood appeared on his neck, and he fell directly to the ground.
“Now.”
“Ms. Cynthia, what are you going to do?”
Li Xu held the knife, with a teasing smile on the corner of his mouth, looking at the lady adjudicator who clenched her fists and barely pretended to be calm.
Boom!
A flash of lightning flashed across the sky.
Gradually dense rainwater slapped on the blood-red knife, mixed with blood and slipped from the knife tip.
tick!
tick!
The sound of blood and water falling on the ground seemed to be the bell of death.
“The High Table will not let you go.” Cynthia’s gray-brown eyes fixed on Li Xu.
“Unfortunately, the answer was wrong.”
Li Xu shook his head and raised the knife in his hand.
…
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning streaked across the dark night sky.
“Why haven’t you come back yet?”
Matilda hugged the quilt and curled up on the sofa, staring at the door with her big beautiful eyes.
“Crack.”
Li Xu opened the door and entered the room.
Looking at Matilda who was curled up into a ball, he stepped forward and pinched her nose.
“It’s raining today and it’s so cold,I don’t know how to go back to the room and wait. ”
“I want to see you sooner.” Matilda pressed against Li Xu, with indescribable attachment in her eyes.
“Then you can go to bed now.”
Li Xu rolled his eyes and picked up the girl by the waist.
After arriving at Matilda’s room, Li Xu put her down.
“It’s thundering outside today, let’s sleep together.”
Matilda lay on the quilt, holding Li Xu’s hand tightly.
“It’s like this again.”
Li Xu shook his head, and said helplessly, “I’ll take a shower first, wait.”
“Uh-huh.”
Matilda nodded obediently, and quietly made a victory gesture with her hands behind her back.
…
the next day.
Li Xu opened his eyes, and lifted Matilda who had crawled onto him at some point and was tightly wrapped around him.
“Lucis, I’m so sleepy.”
“I don’t have to go to school today, let me sleep more.”
Matilda rubbed her eyes and gave a hutch.
“Ten minutes for you.”
“Otherwise, the plan to go to the amusement park will be cancelled.”
Li Xu stood up and stretched his body, and opened the curtains by the way.
After a night of heavy rain last night, the sky was exceptionally clear and pure.
But there are a few white clouds floating near the sun, making the sun warm and not dazzling.
“Oh.”
Matilda replied listlessly, and it took a while to react, and sat up abruptly.
“Really, are we going to the amusement park today?”
“You won’t go if you don’t get up.” Seeing Matilda’s dazed and cute appearance, Li Xu leaned over and pinched her smooth white face.
“I’ll take a shower right away.”
Matilda screamed in surprise and ran barefoot towards the bathroom.
Li Xu smiled and shook his head.
Taking Matilda to the amusement park was also an impromptu idea of his.
After all, he is going to the next world soon.
Although there is a space-time node, he can spend experience points to come back, and the time to come back is the moment he left.
But he himself may not see this lovely girl for a long time.
“I’m ready.”
After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Matilda ran out in a hurry, for fear that Li Xu would regret it.
But even so, it seems that there is still a youthful and beautiful feeling of clear water entering hibiscus.
“Then you go and change, and I’ll brush my teeth and wash my face.”
Seeing the girl who wished to drag him away immediately, Li Xu walked into the bathroom speechlessly.
“Then hurry up.”
Matilda yelled.
Hurry up, it would be nice if you can change in an hour.
Li Xu couldn’t complain.
———————xxx———————
No matter what age a woman is, when changing clothes, the word “time concept” is not in her mind.
And the truth is pretty much the same as he guessed.
By the time the two went out, it was already an hour and a half later.
“Is this really pretty? I still think that little red dress looks better.”
Matilda held Li Xu’s arm, her tone was still a bit tangled.
“It looks good now.”
Li Xu nodded numbly.
During this hour and a half, Matilda asked this sentence countless times, and he answered it countless times.
Of course, he was telling the truth.
Matilda was indeed beautiful.
A pair of bright and big eyes, watery, as if they can talk, long eyelashes hanging pretty on the eyeballs and upturned, delicate nose arched high, fair melon-seeded face slightly pink, small cherry mouth The red is about to drip, and there is a hint of maturity in the innocence.
He was almost as tall as Li Xu’s shoulders, with slender and straight legs, and the black pleated skirt made his thighs look extremely fair.
“All right.”
Matilda nodded eagerly.
Since Li Xu bought her a lot of clothes, Matilda’s favorite thing to do is to show Li Xu different clothes.
“What to eat?”
After getting in the car, Li Xu turned to ask Matilda in the co-pilot.
“Well, dim sum in Chinatown.”
“That’s Cantonese style morning tea.”
Li Xu started the car while talking.
…
After a day of crazy fun, the two didn’t come back until about eleven o’clock in the evening.
Matilda held Li Xu’s hand, raised her feet and kissed Li Xu’s face.
“Thank you, Lucis, I am very happy today.”
“I’m also very happy.” Li Xu rubbed the girl’s soft black hair.
“Then shall we go tomorrow?”
Matilda blinked her big bright eyes.
“No, you haven’t done any homework yet.” Li Xu glared at the girl who was trying to pass the test with cuteness.
For some reason, Matilda had no interest in studying.
If I didn’t make a few friends of the same age at school, I am afraid that I would not want to go to school.
“All right.”
Matilda nodded in frustration, and looked at Li Xu pitifully: “Then shall we go next week?”
“You are not allowed to be coquettish and cute.”
Li Xu pinched Matilda’s cute face: “Now go wash and sleep obediently.”
“Oh.”
Matilda went upstairs dejectedly.
After washing up, the girl who played all day quickly fell asleep.
Li Xu sat beside him, quietly watching Matilda’s sweet sleeping face, and opened the system panel.
He decided to travel to the world of Hong Kong right now.
After all, he had a falling out with the High Table now.
With his strength, he is certainly not afraid, but the high table may attack people around him.
Therefore, it is better to fully digest the extraordinary knowledge newly unlocked in the library after [Mechanical Modifier] was promoted to a high level in the next world, further enhance his strength, and take the high table away at once when he comes back.
[Host, do you want to start time travel. 】
Li Xu glanced at the sleeping Matilda, and said silently in his heart: “Let’s start.”.
