Volume 2: Chaotic Holidays Chapter 61: An Amateur Gunfight That Even Lian's Mansion Couldn't Bear
After chatting with Xiao Meng teacher for a while, I finally got past the events of last night and bid farewell to Xiao Meng teacher. Closing the door, I let out a cheer and plunged into the ocean built by the second dimension.
It is often said that cultivating the truth has no time limit... In the blink of an eye, when I habitually opened the refrigerator to get some snacks to replenish my energy, I found that the last bottle of Coke and instant noodles in the fridge seemed to have been consumed by myself at midnight yesterday. Then, thinking about my wallet that had been emptied long ago...
Kaito Maki looked out the window with a sense of reluctance, and the bright sunlight, filled with the passion of summer, shone down on the curtains of his small room, leaving dappled tree shadows behind. If he were by the sea, this would be an exceptionally beautiful day, but Kaito Maki saw such weather and slumped into a dejected posture.
"At times like these, I really don't want to go out! Where would there be so many diligent and evil people lurking in the streets and alleys on a day like today, collecting experience and gold coins?!
Ji Lu Chu Yu covered his head and shouted loudly, but after a while, he realized his true feelings and denied them: "No, as a professional otaku, it's always the case that I don't want to go out! Why can't humans live just like flowers, grass, and trees, relying only on water and sunlight?! This is absolutely a wrong turn in human evolution!"
Isn't there a way to have it both ways... Zhai traveled back to the mini kitchen, using a cup to scoop up a few cups of water and pour them into his stomach, barely suppressing the hunger pangs brought on by an empty stomach. In his heart, he fantasized about when he could win the lottery and live a happy life at home like a rice worm.
Unfortunately, reality is always cruel. Just after using tap water to temporarily suppress the hunger in his stomach, he hadn't even had time to sit back down at the computer to watch another episode or two of anime before going out to "work" again that night, when the courier delivered a stack of utility bills and payment notices. As soon as he opened the envelope, a long string of dizzying numbers appeared before his eyes.
"Indeed, life is so cruel, reality is so dark, the adult world is so unbearable... Why does a 30-year-old leading technological university city have such high electricity and water fees?"
"Excuse me, sorry to bother you. If it's not a problem, could I get your signature confirmation? I have many more payment notices to deliver." The young delivery guy, who looked like a part-time student, asked cautiously as he approached the traveler who was squatting in the corner, muttering to himself. In his heart, he was screaming: "Damn it! This little bit of money isn't even enough for those rich girls from Chongpan Island to buy a few high-priced hot dogs on the street! Hurry up and sign already!"
Jie Lü Chu finally got dragged back to reality by the courier brother from a world of grievances, with an expression similar to Yang Bailao's contract of selling himself, and left his own ghostly handwriting on the small customer confirmation receipt in the corner of the courier brother's eye twitching.
After the courier received the signed receipt from Jie Lü Chu Yì, he quickly left the old apartment like a gust of wind, making Jie Lü Chu Yì wonder if the receipt was a fake document created by a scam group. He hastily checked the payment list for any flaws and upon closer inspection, an even more astonishing fact left Jie Lü Chu Yì reeling: If the user does not pay the fees before August 8th, the user's credit rating will be lowered, and the water and electricity supply under the user's name will be immediately suspended.
As soon as I thought about the power outage, I felt how sad it was that Ultraman didn't have a small monster to fight, and how rotten it was that there was no BL to read. Then I started thinking, isn't making money from collecting debts too slow? Shouldn't I just go rob a bank instead?
However, he was a child brought up with sustainable development education after all. Considering that robbing a bank may bring quick money, but in this surveillance-filled school city, it's simply suicidal behavior. If caught, who knows if there will be days without even comic books? Oh, there is a difference though - at least if not caught, he can still sneak free comics in the comic book store; so in the end, Tsurugi decided to continue on this glorious and sustainable road of robbing the rich to help the poor.
╮(╯▽╰)╭, Although it's not as bad as the late afternoon and evening, since the quality can't compare to robbing a bank, I'll just have to make up for it with quantity. With that thought in mind, Kaito Yamato fastened his sword 'Denkoumaru' at his waist and once again set foot on the path of crime... no, justice, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, vanquishing evil and bringing peace to the good.
It's probably because of the recent misfortunes that I've been avoiding the source of all troubles, and instead took a detour through a dark alley near the park. Either by pushing down lone thugs or pretending to be a pig eating a tiger, I managed to take down a bunch of thugs and my wallet grew thicker as a result; I'm starting to believe in the phrase "Heaven rewards diligence".
Unconsciously, Jie Lü had been wandering along a small alley that he didn't know where it led to. He had once again lost his direction in life's journey. Sighing, he flipped through his wallet and found many small coins and even more large bills inside. After roughly estimating, he figured that this gain was enough for him to pay the water and electricity fees and then live comfortably at home for a while.
"Whatever... it's fine, this time the harvest is rich, just casually take a taxi on the street and go back. " Ji Lu Chu Yan muttered to himself, nodding his head, and casually chose a direction that seemed bright enough to walk towards. Based on his many experiences of walking in alleys, generally following such places would definitely lead him to a main road, and it wouldn't be hard to find a taxi then.
Walking confidently towards the bright avenue and smoothly walking to a highway, Jie Lü Chū Yì never thought that one day he would use such a phrase to describe his own experience: I only guessed the beginning, but didn't guess the result...
"What kind of situation would lead to a gunfight, which usually happens in dark alleys, happening next to the highway?! Has the 'Fantasy Beast' been born again by Mokuyou Haruaki?! How many times can you give birth to something like that?! As for what's happening before his eyes and the continuous sound of gunfire, Kaito Ichimonji seems unable to remain calm, it seems he has encountered a similar situation once before, a long, long time ago in the 'Fantasy Beast' incident."
What's with that guy over there who looks so familiar, crouching next to the blast shield and mindlessly firing his gun? Do you think this is really a movie shoot? Playing supporting roles again and again? And bother the director to at least teach some basic military knowledge! In a firefight, when you can lie down, don't crouch; when you can crouch, don't stand up to reduce the area of being hit by bullets. Where did that ridiculous scene of standing up with a blast shield and firing come from?
Even if the technology of the academic city is awesome, under close-range circumstances, bullets with such high kinetic energy cannot penetrate what looks like a thin explosion-proof shield. What about the impact of bullet kinetic energy? Are all security personnel superhumans with incredible strength who can hold a gun in one hand and a shield in the other to defend against the huge kinetic energy of the bullets?
