At 4:42 AM, the Nine Street area, which had been bustling since nightfall, finally welcod a mont of tranquility.
The rain had stopped. Along the winding long street, the brightly colored neon signs of various shops were still lit, but the shops themselves were long empty.
Thin mist drifted along the streets on both sides. The accumulated water on the ground moistened the trash left behind from people's revelry. Occasionally, three or two drunken people, just erging from a nightclub, could be seen walking arm in arm, speaking loudly and without restraint.
“Drink—! You know about the Night Watch Red Notice List, right?”
“Know it? Then do you know about Gu Qianqian, the Bloody Demoness, who recently appeared on the list?”
“Hehe, to be honest, I was with her. She ate too much, I couldn’t afford her, so we broke up.”
Lu Yibei, following behind Ju ng, looked at the drunken man across the street, her lips slightly parted, wanting to speak but hesitating.
Although I don't discriminate against low-level Psychic, this guy really dares to speak!
Not only does he openly ntion the Night Watch, but he also dares to associate himself with “Gu Qianqian.” Is he really not afraid that “she” will eat him alive if she finds out?
But then again, has “Gu Qianqian’s” reputation really beco so famous now?
Lu Yibei stared at the drunken Psychic, lost in thought, when Ju ng's voice softly entered her ears, interrupting her thoughts.
“You good-for-nothing, what are you spacing out for? Hurry up and go!”
Hearing this, Lu Yibei composed herself, secretly observing Ju ng's back, and tentatively asked, “Slly Girl, where exactly are we going?”
Although she considered her own moral bottom line to be very low, Ju ng, under the pretense of doing sothing “immoral,” led her out but wouldn’t tell her where they were going, which still made her uneasy.
After all, she wasn't sure whose moral bottom line was lower when comparing Ju ng's to her own.
From certain perspectives, Ju ng might even have a lower one, as she rarely considered herself human most of the ti, thus lacking a sense of sha.
As far as Lu Yibei knew, when she was in Jingyi Apartnt Complex, Ju ng had done sothing as disgusting as snatching birdseed from the mynah bird raised by an old neighbor.
“Oh, why are you so full of nonsense?” Ju ng turned around, glared at Lu Yibei, and said, “You yourself agreed to accompany . Even if I wanted to strip naked and run a full marathon around Mountain City right now, you’d have to co with , right?”
“But we can’t do anything illegal, can we?” Lu Yibei frowned.
“Don’t worry, don’t worry!” Ju ng waved her hand, saying lightly, “It won’t be illegal; at most, it will violate public morals.”
“Like what?” Lu Yibei pressed, “Outdoor karaoke in a densely populated area? Going into soone else’s house and taking all the money from a child’s piggy bank? Or sneaking into a college dorm, using their phones to send breakup ssages to girls they like, and confessing to roommates while they’re at it?”
She actually thought of even more immoral things, but worried they would be 404’d if she said them, so she restrained that impulse.
Ju ng looked at Lu Yibei, her eye twitching, and spat, “Pfft, you’re really a ‘great’ person!”
Sotis, people can truly be more annoying than urban legend.
She suddenly felt that after this, it would be necessary to guard against Lu Yibei making the sa invitation to her to do sothing “immoral and exciting.”
She was just talking, but Lu Yibei might actually do it.
Ju ng stopped talking to Lu Yibei and walked towards her planned destination. A few minutes later, the two arrived at their destination—a small noodle shop located at the entrance of a residential area, with its entrance extending underground.
Standing at the entrance, Lu Yibei looked at Ju ng, then at the small noodle shop that was still full of people in the early hours of the morning. “That’s it? How is this ‘immoral and exciting’?”
“Why isn’t it?” Ju ng raised her chin slightly and argued, “Don’t you like to stay healthy? Eating /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ a large amount of carbohydrates in the middle of the night, doesn’t that count as going against your own beliefs?”
“What about the excitent?” Lu Yibei asked, barely suppressing the urge to retort.
Ju ng looked at the sign of the small noodle shop behind her and pouted, “This small noodle shop was rated by netizens as the spiciest and most authentic small noodle shop in the entire Mountain City. I heard their Supre Spicy Bowl can make your mouth numb to the point of losing sensation. Isn’t that exciting?”
Lu Yibei, “
Is this what they call “immoral and exciting”?
I thought a Slly Girl who could secretly kiss soone while they were drunk would co up with sothing truly shaless and outrageous!
In the end, it’s not even as good as joining the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect and playing a ga all night long! Lu Yibei thought.
Seeing Lu Yibei remain silent, Ju ng rolled her eyes, seemingly exasperated, and cooed, “You good-for-nothing! Just tell , will you eat with or not?”
“Eat!” Lu Yibei responded, walking straight into the small noodle shop. “Boss, two Supre Spicy Bowls, large ones, please!”
Looking at Lu Yibei’s back, Ju ng, who was lagging behind, sighed softly, but a faint smile quickly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Actually, this is pretty good too, isn’t it?
It's like a simple date. Ju ng thought.
Actually, for her, who was revered as a deity by all humans and urban legend in Taoyuan, lived a reclusive life, and could mostly get whatever she wanted just by telling Grandpa Electric, a simple interaction like that, just like the things she had prepared before, was quite flavorful!
Yes, she had indeed prepared so nuclear-weapon-level “immoral and exciting” things in the soundproof suite at Tao Hua Family Inn, specifically for passionate couples. Once successfully used, it would guarantee Lu Yibei would walk out of the room leaning on the wall the next day.
The combination of cooked rice and a one-shot soul-piercing hit would surely make that limping Miss lose without a doubt!
However.
Sitting at the entrance of Tao Hua Family Inn, she waited and waited. The twisted impulse that had arisen earlier due to Jiang Li's appearance gradually dissipated. Then, thinking of the shaless things in the room, her own cheeks began to flush, and she finally canceled the original plan.
How could a dignified Marriage God still rely on such low-level thods as cooking raw rice?
However.
Running out in the middle of the night to eat extrely spicy Mountain City noodles, this idea was indeed quite terrible... But besides that, she could only think of an even worse idea, like cheating together in a ga.
As Ju ng thought, walking into the small noodle shop, her attention was suddenly drawn to the electronic synthesized music playing in her ear, and her gaze fell on the claw machine in front of the small noodle shop.
Imdiately after, as if sothing suddenly occurred to her, her eyes lit up slightly, and she moved towards the claw machines.
After ordering two Supre Spicy Bowls, each with an extra portion of peas and minced at, two portions of fernted glutinous rice with ice, and a plate of charcoal-grilled small yellow croaker as a side dish at the cashier, Lu Yibei took her number tag and found an empty table in a corner of the small noodle shop to sit down.
After sitting down, she waited for a mont before realizing that Ju ng hadn't followed her in.
“What in the world is this Slly Girl doing?”

Muttering to herself, she got up and walked out of the small noodle shop. As soon as she stepped out, she saw Ju ng hunched over the claw machine.
She saw her purse her lips, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, carefully manipulating the joystick, and staring intently as the chanical claw descended, grabbed a white puppy plush toy, and then, inevitably, watched the toy fall back into the prize area.
Lu Yibei, “
How strange! Who would have thought that a dignified Calamity urban legend would be interested in a claw machine?
However,
When will she realize that her Power description already dictates that she won't have a good experience playing any type of ga unless the Spiritual Energy is sufficient?
Lu Yibei was thinking when, the next mont, she witnessed an astonishing scene.
After failing to grab the doll once, she returned to the coin-inserting stage. Ju ng straightened her body, furtively glanced left and right, and after confirming that no one was paying attention to her, she acted with lightning speed, extending plant roots from her slender fingertips, and then fished out a handful of shiny silver tokens from the coin slot.
Lu Yibei, “
Good heavens, it’s really you!
It's one thing to skip classes and hire boosters for console and PC gas, but you even cheat at claw machines?
But then again, isn't this far more “immoral and exciting” than eating so Supre Spicy Noodles?
Lu Yibei thought, then walked over, nudging Ju ng with her body. “Can you do it? Or should I try? Which one do you want?”
She really couldn't bear to watch anymore, not only because Ju ng's claw machine skills were terrible, but also because she was a bit worried that Ju ng's “coin-stealing behavior” would be discovered.
However, to her surprise, Ju ng rely glanced at her before refocusing her attention on the claw machine's chanical arm.
In the past, Ju ng would never have done this.
No matter what ga she played, whenever she encountered difficulty, she would throw the problem to Lu Yibei. If Lu Yibei offered to help her pass the level, she would most likely jump up from the sofa with joy.
“Slly Girl, you won’t be able to grab it like this, let ...”
Before Lu Yibei could finish her sentence, Ju ng glared at her, then heard her mutter, “But I just want to grab a doll for you with my own hands!”
“Alright, get out of the way and help Sister keep watch!”
Hearing this, Lu Yibei closed her recently opened mouth, remained silent for a few seconds, then retreated to the side, standing quietly and watching Ju ng continue to try.
Whether it was an illusion or not, looking at that focused face, she suddenly realized that the Slly Girl, whom she had always thought of as so indescribable “dirty thing,” now had a delicate, charming, and almost lting quality.
Emotions, this thing, it's truly a profound mystery, even more mysterious than urban legend!
Although Lu Yibei was keeping watch, Ju ng’s immoral act was ultimately caught red-handed.
Spiritual Energy is not omnipotent. One can sense soone approaching from behind, but it's hard to escape surveillance caras.
Perhaps the Void can, but Calamity certainly cannot!
When the owner of the small noodle shop rushed out with a rolling pin and a large wolfdog, Ju ng, without hesitation, punched through the glass display of the claw machine, grabbed the doll she had failed to catch over fifty tis, hugged it tightly to her chest, and turned to run.
After a few seconds of stunned, Lu Yibei fumbled for all the cash on her, threw it at the charging noodle shop owner, and, taking advantage of his eyes being blinded by money, chased after Ju ng.
“You good-for-nothing, hurry up, don’t get caught! If you’re caught, Sister won’t spend money to bail you out!”
“Hurry up, pass Sister, and this doll is your prize!”
Ju ng waved the palm-sized doll in her hand and shouted at Lu Yibei, speeding up her run.
Looking at Ju ng's bouncing back and the trophy in her hand, Lu Yibei curled the corners of her mouth without even realizing it.
Isn't that the feeling of being immoral and exciting?
Also, I hope one hundred and fifty-two yuan is enough to pay for the claw machine's glass.
This scene reminded her of an old, slightly lodramatic movie she had seen before, where the male protagonist and the terminally ill female protagonist were chased in this way after smashing a bridal shop window and stealing the wedding dress the female protagonist had long admired.
The wedding dress in the movie and the puppy doll in Ju ng's hand were both pure white.
It wasn’t really embarrassing for Lin Kele to be scared into falling into the “sewer” by the strange-looking woman.
What was truly embarrassing was two Calamity urban legend, both on the Night Watch Red Notice List, being chased for three miles by an unknown small noodle shop owner and his large wolfdog, without even getting a single bite of the noodles they paid for.
Monts later, near Tao Hua Family Inn, in front of a beverage vending machine.
“Hoo—!”
Ju ng, who had finally escaped, leaned against the vending machine, patted her chest, exhaled a long breath, and handed the now deford doll to Lu Yibei. “Here, for you!”
“This is a gift Sister risked her life to get for you. You must cherish it with gratitude!”
Seeing Lu Yibei reach out and take the doll, Ju ng raised her eyebrows, turned to look at the vending machine behind her, pondered for a mont, and then extended her tender white hand towards the coin slot.
Seeing the slender roots extending from Ju ng's fingertips, Lu Yibei grabbed her hand. “Are you doing it again? Do you want to be chased for miles again?”
“Move aside, what do you want to drink? I’ll buy it for you!”
“Blue bottle happy water, please!”
Lu Yibei glanced at Ju ng from the corner of her eye and unhesitatingly bought her a red bottle of ginger-flavored happy water.
“Since tonight’s the is immorality, we must see it through! Co on, drink this red bottle of happy water in front of your beloved blue bottle happy water.”
Ju ng, “
A few minutes later.
Lu Yibei and Ju ng, whose face was ashen and who was retching repeatedly, returned together to the suite in Tao Hua Family Inn.
As soon as she entered the door and turned on the light, Lu Yibei’s face also turned ashen when she saw the bizarre items scattered on the bed.
Are these “torture devices or not?
This is too much!
“I rember soone just said that since we’re pursuing immorality, we should see it through?”
Ju ng’s voice drifted eerily into her ears. Lu Yibei shivered and ran out the door as if fleeing for her life.
Behind her, a cackling laugh echoed.
