Maybe it's because of the battle that happened a few years ago, and Yumeng can only learn about it through ruins and scattered information, the battle that reduced the research institute to ruins, or maybe it's something else she doesn't know about, even earlier than before.

In short, the outskirts of the Nosyuk Institute are now a complex of uninhabited buildings that have been abandoned for a long time, which can be regarded as the edge of the entire city.

According to the navigation, the nearest convenience store is also two blocks away.

The convenience store was opened by an elderly couple who lived here, and they slightly remodeled their old house to free up half a narrow space for the storefront.

"Ah, is this it?"

Yumeng finished the navigation of the terminal and looked left and right with a frown.

The shop is small, so if you don't pay attention, you will walk by. In the corner on the side of the main entrance, a pile of cigarette butts and empty wine cans were swept.

The streetlights are a little muddy, the wiring seems to be a bit problematic, flashing from time to time, and most of the surrounding area are low-rise bungalows, and the walls are painted with strange graffiti of various colors.

The whole street smelled of unpleasant urine and foul odor.

Yes, most of the people who visit convenience stores on the edge of the city are undesirable youths or homeless people who wander the city.

- After buying bread, go back quickly.

The girl lowered her head, and the pace under her feet couldn't help but be a little faster, and she pushed open the door of the convenience store and walked in.

"Hello, do you need any help?"

In front of the convenience store is a wooden cash register, and an old gentleman with reading glasses sits inside, looking at a book with his head down, and asks.

Yumeng quickly looked around, and the shelves were sparsely stocked with cheap beer, cigarettes, condoms, and fast food. But even the cheapest instant cup noodles cost 10 o'clock a bucket.

"Is there bread for sale?" Yumeng walked to the cash register and asked.

"The bread is sold out, huh?" Hearing the voice in front of him, the old man let out a strange nasal sound.

Taking off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, the old man raised his head and carefully looked at the girl in front of him, his pupils shrank slightly, and after his gaze wandered away for a while, he finally stopped on the crystal cross school emblem on the girl's left chest.

"Sold, sold out?!"

Youmeng bit her finger tangledly, and suddenly there was a coolness in her mind, and wisdom poured out of her mind.

In that case, there is no way, it is not a big problem.

Fortunately, she still vaguely remembers watching the plot of "Journey to the West" when she was a child and mastered some unique survival skills.

Without changing his face, he grabbed three bowls of cup noodles from the shelf next to him and put them on the cash register, Youmeng folded his hands and looked at the old man behind the counter sincerely, "This old man, can you lend me three bowls of cup noodles first, and then I will pay you back tomorrow." Do I pay 9 p.m. as a deposit? A good man's life is safe~mua~"

“……”

The old man glanced at Youmeng thoughtfully and did not speak.

It's over, it's over, it looks like it's a misname.

"So, uncle? Give me face. Youmeng blinked, and clasped her hands into fists with a sincere salute.

“……”

Isn't it okay, I've encountered a pervert. Youmeng complained silently in her heart, recalling the hopeful eyes of Otilia and Antonieva before going out, gritted her teeth, and smiled flatteringly, "Or, big ...... Big brother help? Me, huh? ”

The ultimate secret skill - cute and cute!

"That's it!" The old man's face turned green, and he patted the wooden platform with a frown, "What a mess, the more you talk about it, the more you don't like it." ”

Taking a deep look at Youmeng's back, the old man stood up and put the cup noodles that the girl had placed on the wooden table back to the shelves one by one, "Children eat less instant noodles." ”

After finishing speaking, he opened the cabinet under the shelf, took out five or six bags of bread and put them in front of Youmeng, "I remember that there seems to be some bread that can't be sold, count you at 9 o'clock, let's take it together." After a pause, the old man walked to the freezer again, took out a piece of packaged frozen meat and put it on the cash register, "By the way, there is also a piece of raw beef with a vacuum here, I will give it to you, people are old and have bad teeth, and they can't be sold here." ”

"Huh? Thank you, thank you! I will definitely pay you back when I have money in the future. "I don't really understand what happened, but it's a good thing. Youmeng nodded vigorously, hurriedly paid the points, reached out and picked up the bread and beef on the wooden table and prepared to leave.

"Wait." Seeing that Youmeng was about to walk out of the store, the old man raised his hand and shouted.

"Huh?" Subconsciously hugged the bread and beef in his arms, and Youmeng turned her head half vigilantly. "I paid for it, you can't go back!"

The old man's lips twitched twice, and then slowly lowered it again, "...... It's okay, stay safe. Come home. With that, he paced back to the store.

"Uh-huh. Grandpa, you're such a nice man! Youmeng nodded, tightened the food in her arms again, and trotted back the same way.

"Is little Antoneva back? I felt her ripples of spiritual power. ”

As soon as she walked through the door, a tall, thin woman with deep-set eyes groped her way down the stairs from the second floor with an excited expression.

The old man recalled the guardian spirit prohibition he had seen behind the girl just now, pursed his lips and shook his head in denial.

"It's not her, it's just a lost little girl from the Academy of Eulasis."

…………

"Ollie, Neva, I'm back!"

Youmeng, who was full of excitement, stood at the door of the institute with a blush after trotting.

…… The gate was quiet, nothing changed.

Do you want to recite a mantra?

Yumeng tilted her head, recalling Antoneva's actions before. With difficulty, he held the food from the 'Huayuan' with one hand, gently placed one hand on the metal door, and said in an indifferent tone.

"Noah, it's me!"

…… The gate was quiet, nothing changed.

Scratching his head in confusion, could it be that Noah is asleep?

Youmeng thought about it, and then reached out and patted the metal door, making a banging sound, "Noah, open the door, open the door!" Open the door, open the door, open the door! ”

…… The gate was quiet, but still nothing had changed.

Since you can't feel the air barrier of the spiritual power prohibition, it means that the previous permission registration is effective.

Do you have to attack the shield with an attack?

Puffing out her cheeks, Youmeng carefully put the food in her hand aside, and moved her wrist - I think you are embarrassing my little salted fish.

Taking a slight step back, Youmeng gathered spiritual power in her hand, and used her super combat skill that has been invincible so far to crash forward, "Eat me a [Salted Fish Spike]!" ”

Pia trumpet~

The closed door suddenly slid open left and right, and the unprepared Yumeng threw herself face down on the stone path of the entrance of the research institute with the momentum of moving forward bravely.

"Pain, pain, pain~" Retracted his legs and sat up, Youmeng rubbed her nose and chest, it hurt so much, it felt flattened.

A vague and tall light appeared beside her, and Noah said in a cold voice, "First, if you bang the door with your foot or hand again in the future, just reflect outside for an hour before coming in." Second, around the Mansion of the High Spirits, it is strictly forbidden to make loud noises. Third, the detection method of opening the door is spiritual power fluctuations, and it is enough to release spiritual power slowly, not to let you attack with spiritual skills! ”

"It's fierce."

Youmeng, who was in a good mood, secretly stuck out her tongue, turned around, walked outside the door, picked up the bread and beef, and walked towards the building. "I know, I know, you haven't shown up before, blame me."
