"Today I just dealt with a Hunter who lost control. His infection rate broke through the safety threshold, but he wasn’t that strong." Sun Hang said.
"Hunters with a high level of infection aren’t necessarily strong, but strong Hunters definitely have a high level of infection." Shinkata Misaki said confidently, "You’ve encountered way more Hunters than you, combined with my abilities... I can almost tell what type of characters those Hunters are at a glance."
"Didn’t you say that in your eyes, I’m just an egg with uniform hardness all over?"
"That was just a taphor! It’s considered an extre case." Shinkata Misaki argued, "Such a situation only exists in theory. In reality, it’s impossible... especially humans. Even a tiny change in your posture will change the flaws in your body... and a person without any flaw simply shouldn’t exist! Do you understand what I an?!"
"But you indeed didn’t see any flaw in ." Sun Hang said innocently, "According to what you said, I shouldn’t even exist, right?"
"I suspect it’s so ability of yours that interferes with my eyes." Shinkata Misaki pondered, "That day when you ca to Peony Slope, the first ti I saw you, you were full of flaws, almost uncountable... but when I looked the second ti, all those flaws vanished..."
As Shinkata Misaki spoke, her voice trailed off a little, and after a mont, she gently tapped the table: "I suspect the problem isn’t with you but with my eyes."
"That’s not good at all... you’re the key component of the Insecticide Project, and if your eyes have a problem, the whole project is dood." Sun Hang shrugged.
"But this only happens when I look at you. Everything else seems normal."
"Have you ever seen Chira 17?"
"Only in video files."
"Uh... can your ability work through real-ti video?"
"If it could, I wouldn’t have to co here."
"I thought they sent you over because they worried about latency in the video." Sun Hang replied.
"Actually, solving this problem is quite simple." Shinkata Misaki suddenly showed a mysterious smile. "You just need to find a ti to secretly take to a place where I can see Chira 17, then it would be all ’clear at a glance’ whether my ability works on Chira 17."
"That’s the real reason you shared all those words with , isn’t it?"
"Hey, you caught ."
"Alright, but you can’t get too close. You might only see a vague outline... uh, does your ability have a range limit?"
"My record is nineteen kiloters, but that occasion had good visibility, and the creature was big enough." Shinkata Misaki said, "Besides, equipnt like telescopes could interfere with my ability to so extent. For the most precise data, I must observe directly."
"So if a telescope causes interference, then clouds, fog, rain, or whatever, would also interfere?"
"As long as you get close enough, those problems won’t be issues." Shinkata Misaki looked at Sun Hang with hopeful eyes, "With your abilities, you should be able to manage that, right?"
"Let’s discuss it later."
The microwave emitted a "ding" sound, interrupting their conversation. Sun Hang went to the kitchen and took out two heated bento boxes.
Almost at the sa ti, the sound of the door opening ca from the entrance, and Yang Lian walked in. While taking off her boots, she turned her head towards the kitchen, and when she saw Sun Hang walking out with two bento boxes, she was slightly stunned: "How did you know I was coming back today?"
"Oh, I thought you were working overti today." Sun Hang pointed to the direction of the dining room, "The other bento is for her."
"Her?" Yang Lian followed Sun Hang’s pointed direction and only then noticed another person sitting at the dining table.
"Why is she here?" Yang Lian asked instinctively.
"Song Yarong said there’s no room for her at the institute to stay temporarily, besides, all the people living here now have to work overti, so the empty room is just enough for her to make do." Sun Hang explained.
"But... isn’t she Ling Xiao’s observer? Why isn’t she living with Ling Xiao instead of coming to you?" Yang Lian asked surprised.
Unlike Song Yarong, Yang Lian didn’t know about Shinkata Misaki’s existence.
"..." Sun Hang suddenly felt this seed a bit difficult to explain, thinking for a long ti, he simply decided to "sacrifice" himself, "Just think of it as being infatuated and actively inviting this beautiful lady for dinner."
"Disgusting." Yang Lian rolled her eyes at Sun Hang but said nothing more, going to the fridge on her own and taking out a bento box.
"Aren’t you living at Sun Hang’s place too? Does that make you his woman?" Shinkata Misaki asked with interest.
Yang Lian ignored him and turned to Sun Hang instead: "After dinner, are you planning to share the sa bed too?"
"That hasn’t progressed to that point yet." Sun Hang scratched his head.
"La." Yang Lian said again.
"Not cool, you just called disgusting, now you’re calling la... what do you really an?" Sun Hang felt a little aggrieved.
"I said you’re disgusting because you fall for soone new all the ti, and you’re la because you can’t even handle a woman like her... In summary, you’re both la and a flirt." Yang Lian said with a straight face.
"How do you know he hasn’t handled ?" Shinkata Misaki suddenly winked at Sun Hang, "If you propose we go further, I might not refuse..."
"Shut up." Sun Hang threw a lunchbox in front of Shinkata Misaki, "Eat your food!"
"What a heartless man, you were just flirting with soone, and now you’re so cold." Shinkata Misaki picked up the lunchbox, "Even this lunchbox is warr than your heart."
"Enough acting, I’m afraid I’ll puke up the instant noodles I had earlier." Sun Hang gave Shinkata Misaki a middle finger.
"Is she... really a woman you invited over?" Yang Lian finally noticed sothing off, "I feel like sothing’s not right."
"What’s not right? What did you see?" Sun Hang imdiately retorted.
"It’s just intuition... simply intuition."
"Oh, so this is the legendary woman’s intuition?" Sun Hang said, "I have to admit, it’s sothing."
"So who exactly is she?" Yang Lian asked again.
"It’s confidential."
"Confidential?"
"Very important secret, no one can know right now, so don’t ask." Sun Hang said, "I can only tell you, it’s serious business."
"Though hearing ’serious business’ from your mouth always feels a bit... not so serious." Yang Lian glanced at Shinkata Misaki, then sat down at the dining table, "But I’ve decided... to believe you this once."
"It’s right to believe . By the way, don’t you need to heat your bento?"
"I like eating it cold." Yang Lian replied, "I’m used to it."
"Liking and habit are different things, at least this chunk of frozen lard is quite greasy." Sun Hang said, reaching in front of Yang Lian with a snapping sound, blue sparks flickered between his fingers. The lard wrapping the at lted instantly, and the aroma of the food gently drifted out.
