Re:Zero - Starting Life in Chaos.

"Of course, we eat first!"

Beichen threw away the blanket and jumped off the recliner with a somersault.

Not getting the answer she wanted, Kuang San was a little disappointed, she couldn't help but curl her lips and complained:

"Beichen-san~ it's so boring to drop your stockings~"

(Kyousan often says "falling stockings", and the frequency is not low. After all, she has experienced the second year of middle school, so it's not surprising.)

"hey-hey."

With a strange laugh, Beichen pulled up his shorts and stood up straight.

"Kuang San, long time no see, how have you been during this period?"

"Hey~ Welcome back. I'm doing fine~"

Covering her mouth and chuckling softly, Kuang San looked at Beichen with resentment.

"Of course, if I didn't have any tasks assigned to me by someone, I think I would be happier!"

"Hehe." Beichen laughed awkwardly and scratched his head.

Before leaving, he asked Kuang San to help him investigate certain things.

The first time he led the team on a mission, they were attacked. Afterwards, neither Kaguya nor Fiona's organization found any valuable intelligence.

So he asked Kurumi for help, and after he entered the other world, he focused on tracking Shido Koichi.

After all, this guy is an old coin and has the motivation to do this.

Firstly, Beichen killed his brother in the maze incident. Even though he had no feelings for his brother, it still cost him face.

Secondly, as the mastermind involved in the maze incident, his family was suppressed by Kaguya at the instruction of Beichen.

Shido Koichi has a strong desire for control and power, so he will definitely not just swallow his anger as if nothing happened.

"How is it? Did you find out anything?" Beichen asked hurriedly.

"There is no direct evidence to prove that Shido Koichi is connected to the group of people who attacked you." Kurumi shook her head.

"But your guess is correct."

"He used special means to hide his strength, and the specific method is unknown. If it wasn't for an unexpected incident that accidentally leaked his information, I really wouldn't have known that there was a Level 7 Transcendent right under my nose."

"That's normal~" stroking his chin, Beichen continued to ask, "What about blood donation?"

Koichi Shido has a good reputation in school, not just because he is eloquent and charming.

More importantly, it’s because he often donates blood.

If it were someone else, Beichen might not think there was a problem.

But who is Shido Koichi?

The villain in the anime!

Will he be kind enough to donate blood?

Even though he is a superhuman being with a strong blood-forming ability, it is impossible for him to have the kindness to benefit the public.

Therefore, Beichen felt that Zi Teng was likely to possess blood-related superpowers.

I just don't know if he can control others through blood.

"We checked, but the blood flow is not fixed, covering most of the hospitals in Dongdu. Those who received blood transfusions did not show any abnormalities." Kuang San said.

"Do you need me to trace back and find out whether those who attacked you received blood transfusions?"

"No, there's no need. Their records must have been destroyed long ago."

Beichen narrowed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and said playfully:

"It seems that Zi Teng is quite cautious. Even though we entered the other world, he still chose to remain dormant and did not reveal his true identity. He is a difficult guy."

"Then what are you going to do about it?"

"Just kill him." Beichen responded in a flat tone.

It's the sir's job to provide evidence. His patience is limited and he has no interest in continuing the investigation.

He is just an islander, just kill him and search his soul.

Even if it was an accidental killing, it didn't matter.

Anyway, Beichen is not familiar with him.

"You can't abandon me~ I've spent a lot of time helping you~"

"How much time does a level 7 transcendent have? Just thinking about it makes me excited~"

Licking her lips, Kuang San smiled sweetly, not caring at all that Beichen wanted to kill Zi Teng based on mere suspicion.

"No problem, I'll control him and let you do whatever you want with him."

"It's a deal~"

"Don't worry, I'll do the job." Beichen patted his chest.

"By the way." Beichen changed the subject, "I asked you to help take care of the Fourth Palace before, and with this investigation, I owe you two favors. Have you decided what kind of reward you want?"

"No need, it's just a small favor."

"That won't work. Friendship is friendship, but gratitude should still be given."

"Hey~ Beichen-san is really tough~" As if complaining, Kuang San wrinkled her beautiful nose.

"I am just repaying a favor. How can that be called tough?"

Beichen spread his hands and thought, this is just the beginning, you haven’t seen anything harder yet!

"Hmm~"

Hearing this, Kuang San raised her index finger and tapped her cheek, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he pointed at Beichen and said, "I want you!"

"..."

Beichen didn't say anything, he knew that there must be something further to what Kuang San said.

Sure enough, when the girl saw that Beichen didn't fall into the trap, a hint of disappointment flashed across her eyes.

"Beichen-san, you are so smart, but girls don't like you~"

"It's okay, I'm handsome enough!" Beichen shrugged.

"Hehehe~" Hearing Beichen's narcissistic words, Kuang San immediately laughed out loud.

One hand covered his stomach and the other covered his mouth.

People's hearts were trembling and their eyes were narrowed into slits.

After feasting his eyes, Beichen coughed lightly. "Cough, enough, let's get serious."

After rolling his eyes at Beichen, Kuang San continued:

"I want you to go shopping with me some other day~"

"Shopping?" Beichen raised his eyebrows. "No one is going out with you? Didn't you make a few friends?"

Not long after Kuang San transferred to Beichen's class, she made several friends with good personalities and character.

They usually get together for dinner, which shows that they have a good relationship.

"They are them."

Speaking of a few friends, Kuang San's tone softened a little.

Ever since she met Beichen and listened to him talk about her original trajectory, she began to reconcile with herself and gradually embarked on a new journey of life.

Although she would occasionally recall the past that she couldn't bear to think about in her dreams, the fact that she was able to make friends again was enough to show that her state of mind had changed.

After regaining focus, Kuang San continued:

"I've never been shopping with a boy before~"

"I just don't know if Beichen-san is willing to sacrifice himself to accompany me on this trip."

"With great pleasure."

When a beautiful woman invites him, what else can Beichen say? He naturally nods and agrees.

"But this is not really a request. After all, in a way, having a beautiful girl like you by my side can be considered a reward."

"Ah la la ~ Beichen-san, has he finally come to his senses? He can actually make me happy?"

"I'm just telling the truth."

Kuang San was very pleased with Beichen's words, and her smile became visibly brighter.

"Beichen-san."

"You spend time and energy, and I gain happiness."

"To me, that's pay to drop stockings."

"Uh... ok."

Facing the girl's sincere gaze, Beichen didn't continue to worry about it. Anyway, he could find another opportunity to make up for it later.
