Looking at Xing on the screen, Liu Yueyan's eyes went wide with a shocked expression.
However, immediately following that, a feeling of secret delight gradually welled up in her heart.
She had wanted to touch the ears of the raccoon-form Xing for a long time. After all, this was a character who had been the subject of many fan works. Although this didn't look like fan fiction, but more like an extended 'If' timeline.
Originally, when she first met Xing, she had thought about finding Wolffy to trade for a gun that could turn people into animals—specifically the kind that only manifests animal ears and tails.
But looking at Xing, who had already turned into a raccoon on the screen, Liu Yueyan suddenly realized she didn't need to carry out her evil plan anymore, because a scapegoat had already achieved it for her!
"Alright, locked on. Who wants to go to the scene and take a look directly?"
At this moment, Lin Tian suddenly spoke to the group.
Hearing Lin Tian's words, Aoi Kanzaki was the first to raise both hands. She had wanted to go out and see the outside world for a long time. Although she had already experienced the convenience of modern people, true modernity couldn't be fully summarized by just some convenient lifestyle amenities and advanced weapons.
Actually, Aoi Kanzaki had wanted to go out and play earlier, but since Shinobu, Mitsuri, Kanao, and the others only wanted to follow Lin Tian, she felt awkward going out alone, so she could only stay cooped up in the room with them.
Now that Lin Tian unprecedentedly wanted to go out and play, she was naturally the first to approve!
Following closely were Shinobu, Kanao, and the others. They also wanted to see the famous sights of this world that was similar to Lin Tian's hometown. Of course, after watching the excitement, going for a stroll through the shopping streets—a woman's favorite—would be the best follow-up.
If Lin Tian knew that his decision would generate such thoughts in Mitsuri and the others, who knows if he would have still made the suggestion.
"Since you've decided to go, you big baddie, then I'll go too."
Seeing that Shinobu and the others were preparing to go, Shiho Miyano also prepared to tag along. She figured she might be able to go shopping and buy some interesting things to play with, like a small leather whip.
"Little Ai, can you call me 'big baddie' one more time?"
Shiho Miyano: (???)
"That works too."
Shiho Miyano: '...A bit perverted.'
"Little Ai, you really understand me."
Lin Tian teased Shiho Miyano a few times, not letting her off the hook until he had made her blush.
It seemed that even if their ages were similar, the world one has seen determines one's perspective. Look at Shiho Miyano; getting teased a few times made her face turn bright red. She still lacked experience.
Lin Tian: '...Bonus points.'
"I'll pass. Looking at Gabriel, she probably won't go, so I'll stay and keep her company."
Looking at Miko Yotsuya, who had unknowingly been squeezed to the side, and Gabriel, who had started playing Valorant, Akemi Miyano decided to stay behind. She wasn't interested in this kind of combat scenario. Rather than going along and causing trouble, she might as well stay in the room and search the internet for some knowledge regarding this world.
However, after refusing, Akemi Miyano secretly passed a slip of paper to Shiho Miyano and winked at her, signaling that she absolutely had to read it.
Seeing her sister's petty actions, Shiho Miyano was somewhat speechless. Was this necessary? Did she want her younger sister to be conquered that badly?
"I won't go either," Miko Yotsuya said, holding her phone.
She was already sick of the supernatural weirdness of this world. She couldn't pretend not to see it, and she had already been scared into fainting twice. She really didn't want to faint again.
"Are you sure? Miko, do you really not want to go? We might go check out the official government shops later. There are still many useful things inside. At the very least, those little ghosts from your world would vanish if they got near you..." Liu Yueyan suddenly threw in a comment.
"Are we not moving yet?"
Looking at the suddenly proactive Miko Yotsuya, Lin Tian felt like he was witnessing a traditional art form—Face Changing.
"It seems everyone plans to go. What about you, Erina? Gabriel and Akemi plan to stay home; do you want to stay home too?"
In the room, only Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri hadn't made a decision. In terms of strength, they indeed weren't suitable for such a dangerous scene. In terms of perspective, they were already the most powerful faction within their own world's country; their horizons couldn't be any lower.
"Of course we're going. Hua Nation still has many good things. I've never traveled to this country before, so being able to see this more advanced nation now counts as an interesting matter."
And so, everyone in the room made their decisions. Aside from the gaming Gabriel and Akemi Miyano who was looking after her, everyone else planned to go to the place where Xing was to have some fun.
However, saying they were going to find Xing was really just a pretext for most of the people present. Their main target was shopping. This was the first time Lin Tian had shown a willingness to go out, so of course, they had to grasp the opportunity!
Thus, with Lin Tian thinking about watching a show and everyone else thinking about shopping, the group suddenly vanished from the room.
Seeing Lin Tian and the others disappear, Akemi Miyano turned her gaze to the television, and then she saw a very speechless scene.
"Rules are meant to be broken!"
Just as Lin Tian's group appeared on the Yangtze River Bridge, Raccoon Xing brandished her bat and swung it down at Lin Tian, who was standing in the center position.
Clang.
A loud sound rang out as Lin Tian's head and Xing's bat came into complete contact.
As the expression on Xing's face gradually turned to horror, the smile on Lin Tian's face grew wider and wider.
"Xing, be a good girl. Come, tell me, you did that on purpose."
