"Since no outsiders have ever come to my house, I only have men's indoor shoes. Please be a little considerate." The island country has very detailed divisions between indoor shoes and outdoor shoes. After Luo Shu came to the island, he naturally followed the local customs. Fortunately, his hometown also has a distinction between indoor and outdoor shoes. Except for the difference that shoes in his hometown are placed outside the door, while shoes here must be placed in the entrance hall, he can adapt to everything else. Luo Shu took a pair of plaid slippers and placed them in front of Tsubakihara Mira to make it easier for her to put on her shoes. Then he stood up and walked into the living room. Mira Tsubakihara looked down at the men's slippers, thought for a moment, took off her high heels and put them on, then walked into Luo Shu's room. "Ok?" When she walked into the room, Mira Tsubakihara blinked when she saw the untied instant noodles and glass cups on the glass table. Noticing something was wrong, Luo Shu glanced at the table and immediately laughed: "Sorry, single men are a little slovenly." "Oh, I see." Mira Tsubakihara smiled and walked to the sofa, and immediately saw the school uniform that Luo Shu took off yesterday.
She was stunned at first, then she glanced at Luo Shu's slightly messy suit and couldn't help but chuckled: "You didn't sleep in this last night, did you?" "Ah this..." Luo Shu felt a little embarrassed now. He went forward to pick up the clothes on the floor, walked to the bathroom and threw them all into the washing machine, then went into the kitchen to get a rag, returned to the living room to pick up the cups and instant noodle cups, and wiped the glass table in passing: "I'm sorry to embarrass you." Seeing this, Tsubakihara Mira held back her laughter and jokingly said, "Luo Shujun, you can consider getting a girlfriend." Luo Shu thought about it seriously and shook his head, "...Forget it. I'm not yet at the stage where I can take responsibility for other people's lives." "...Hmm, Mr. Luo Shu is unexpectedly serious." Mira Tsubakihara looked at Luo Shu with surprise, as if she didn't expect that a casual teasing would make him have such an association. At this time, after Luo Shu had cleaned up the sundries, he wanted to make tea, but considering that Tsubakihara Mira might not be used to drinking his own tea, he slowed down and asked: "I have tea and coffee at home, which one do you want?" However, unexpectedly, Tsubakihara Mira actually smiled and said to Luo Shu: "For me, hot is fine." “It’s hot…” Luo Shu paused, walked to the thermos, picked it up, and found that half of the hot water from yesterday morning was still there. Just as he was about to pour it out, he heard Tsubakihara Mira's voice: "The thermos will last no more than three days." Luo Shu showed a subtle expression when he heard this. He sighed, took two cups again, poured two hot cups, sat down, handed them to Tsubakihara Mira and said: "By the way, why are you here to see me so early? Is there something wrong?" "There is indeed one thing."
As Tsubakihara Mira said this, she took out a piece of paper from her handbag, turned it around, and handed it over: "The things I asked the lawyer to help me with yesterday have just been delivered." Upon hearing this, Luo Shu lowered his head to look at the contents on the page. The first thing he saw was the title at the top. 【House Ownership Transfer Agreement】 (Activity time: January 1 to February 21) Chapter 36 We are accomplices Looking at the 'House Transfer Agreement' on the table, Luo Shu was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Tsubakihara Mira. "Although it may be a bit utilitarian, for me, if I can keep Luo Shujun nearby for protection with just a house, it should be a very cost-effective deal." Mira Tsubakihara handed over the agreement with a smile, and emphasized that this gift was a "security transaction." At that time, after hearing what Tsubakihara Mira said, Luo Shu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "I can't remember any company that charges a security fee worth a house." This is a house near Ikebukuro Station in Nerima Ward. The price was over 3 million yen three years ago. Although house prices in island countries fluctuate very little, the house prices have risen a lot recently because Beika Town is next door. Luo Shu roughly estimated that 60 million yen was probably a price range that could be easily sold. Converted into the ratio of Japanese yen to Celestial Empire currency in this world, it would be about million Celestial Empire currency. Every time he rescued someone, he could earn around 6 million yuan plus an abyss item worth points. Even robbing a bank wouldn't make money this fast. After thinking for a while, Luo Shu glanced at the agreement and pushed it back: "I already received the reward yesterday, so I'd better take it back." Tsubakihara Mira seemed to have anticipated Luo Shu's refusal, so she smiled and said: "I've just said it, the house is a gift in exchange for Luo Shujun continuing to live here." "If you think this is too bad, how about setting the deadline at one year?" After hearing Mira Tsubakihara say this, Luo Shu finally realized what Mira Tsubakihara was thinking. Not to thank him for saving his life yesterday, but to let him stay here for a while longer? Miss, why do I feel that your motive is a little impure? Luo Shu glanced at Tsubakihara Mira with a subtle expression, but he felt in his heart that the probability that the other party had other intentions was very high. But for the eldest daughter of an arms group, she is definitely not short of money. You can imagine that the probability of her being after money is pitifully low, so...is she after people? "If this guy really wants to pursue me, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold out for three days." Luo Shu couldn't help but complain in his heart. However, Luo Shu also knew that it was fine to keep the thought "she likes me" in his heart, but if he really said it out loud, he would have the best of both worlds. If he didn't have enough good feelings, then all would be lost. "If one year doesn't work, half a year will be fine." Seeing that Luo Shu did not respond for a long time, Tsubakihara Mira took another step back and added:
"Because of what happened yesterday, my family urged me to go back and live there again. For the sake of the poor freedom of a young lady in seclusion, can't you make some sacrifices, Luo Shujun?" Hearing this, Luo Shu's eyebrows twitched. Although Tsubakihara Mira didn't realize it, Luo Shu himself knew it very well. If he really let the other party move back to her home with stronger security, his plan to recruit new people would definitely be ruined. "I always feel that it's risky to just show my cards like this, but even if I get a house for free, I'm not sure if I'll live in it safely. I don't want to be accused of being a gigolo or something..." Luo Shu thought about it for a while, sighed, and reached out to take the agreement that Mira Tsubakihara placed on the table. Seeing Luo Shu accept it, Tsubakihara Mira seemed relieved, and a smile appeared on her pretty face with light makeup. "Where I come from, there's an old saying: 'Reciprocity is the best policy.'" As Luo Shu spoke, he took out a contract out of thin air without hesitation, and then said to the surprised Tsubakihara Mira: "Let me start what I'm going to say next. I hope Miss Mira won't tell anyone, including her parents." "I understand." Seeing Luo Shu's serious face, Tsubakihara Mira immediately corrected her manners, sat up straight and nodded. "This is the contract of the secret organization 'Astronomy Society' that I founded." Luo Shu handed over the contract, placed it in front of Tsubakihara Mira, and said: "I think Miss Mira should have investigated the organization that the hound belonged to yesterday. Then you should know how the secret organizations and even religions on this island country started, right?" "I know a little bit. It seems that it is because I have obtained an abyss item that can give others extraordinary powers... Hmm?" When Tsubakihara Mira said this, she suddenly realized something. She lowered her head to look at the contract document, then looked up at Luo Shu, obviously thinking of what Luo Shu wanted to say. Luo Shu did not refute the statement, but nodded in acknowledgment: "Signing the contract will allow you to awaken your 'superpowers'." Speaking of this, Luo Shu added: "The Astronomy Club has nothing to do with SDS. It is an organization that belongs to me personally. I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. Currently, there are only three people in this organization, including me." After the words were spoken and Luo Shu fell silent, the decision-making power immediately shifted to Mira Tsubakihara. An organization with only three people is considered a very unreliable small organization among secret organizations. Many organizations like this that accidentally acquire some Abyss items and begin to grow will be swallowed up by larger organizations as "snacks". In a better situation, both the personnel and props are accepted, while in a worse situation, only the props are accepted and the personnel are made to stop talking. Mira Tsubakihara, who was somewhat familiar with the ecology of secret organizations, knew very well that there was no need to join such a small organization. At least, it was unnecessary for her background. However, sometimes it is emotion rather than rationality that determines whether something can be done. After a brief silence, Tsubakihara Mira kept smiling and asked calmly: "Has Luo Shujun studied the side effects of the abyss item that grants abilities?" Side effects? Luo Shu, who was asked, knew that the side effect of the system's clan subsystem was that it could not backstab him and was highly bound to him, but considering that this limitation was not suitable to be put on the surface, he packaged it a little: "The side effect is that after signing the contract, you cannot betray the organization, nor can you actively harm members of the organization, and the members of the organization will form a family relationship similar to blood relatives."
"Of course, the organization will not force members to perform tasks, let alone missions that will lead to death. So in a sense, the 'Abyss Props' within our organization are very high-end." After saying this, Luo Shu looked straight at Mira Tsubakihara and raised his right hand so that Mira Tsubakihara could see the ruby ring on his hand more easily. "Therefore, this matter concerns my life safety. Once Miss Mira decides to refuse, I will choose to violate yesterday's agreement and use the 'Devil's Heart' to hypnotize you and make you forget this matter." Facing Luo Shu's threat, Tsubakihara Mira asked curiously: "You're just going to let me forget about it. Are you not going to do anything else?" Ah this... Luo Shu was a little confused by this question. But before he could react, Mira Tsubakihara took out a pen and signed her name on the contract as if she had been prepared. After signing, the beautiful girl smiled at Luo Shu and said: "Now, we are accomplices." Hearing this, Luo Shu was silent for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "You are right, Miss Mira." "We are accomplices." (Activity time: January 1 to February 21) Chapter 37 Luo Shu's Investment After the contract was signed, Luo Shu looked at Miss Mira, who had become his 'accomplice', and said with a slight smile: "Before I help you awaken your abilities, would you mind changing the location?" "Oh? Sure." Tsubakihara Mira was slightly stunned, then stood up and looked at Luo Shu who also stood up. Under her gaze, Luo Shu walked towards his study. Walking to the door, Luo Shu reached out and grasped the door handle, twisted it downward, unlocked the door, but did not push the door open. Instead, he repeated the door opening action twice. Seeing this, Tsubakihara Mira was startled, walked up and asked curiously: "Is the door broken?" "No, just the necessary 'unlocking' procedure to enter the station." Luo Shu said this, pushed open the door, and walked in. Mira Tsubakihara entered the room while wondering what Luo Shu meant by "unlocking". After entering the room, Mira Tsubakihara looked at the huge hall in front of her and was suddenly stunned. She quickly turned around and looked at the room behind her. When she saw that the room behind was still Luo Shu's living room, she turned back and said blankly: "Is the study room... so big?" How come this apartment has such a huge living room? How come she, the "landlord", doesn't know about it? "That's why it's called a 'station'."
As Luo Shu spoke, he snapped his fingers, and immediately, a long mahogany table and two birch chairs appeared in the empty hall. Luo Shu stepped forward, pulled out a chair, and walked to the chair on the other side of the long table and sat down: "One of the entrances to this alternate dimension is my study. It can be opened by twisting the door handle three times. Of course, this function is limited to members of the organization." If there are no restrictions on the organization's members, it is possible that other people will enter the base in this way. Although Luo Shu believed in the ethics of the current members of the organization and knew that they would not leak secrets, necessary protective measures were still required.
