Chapter 189 Looking for a cat

Don't open it?

Doesn’t this mean it must be opened?

Most people should understand this, right?

Li twitched the corner of her mouth, picked up the box, and pretended to open it.

"Alicia, do you have any secrets hidden inside?"

"Of course, because it's my underwear underneath~?" Alicia covered her cheeks with a shy look on her face.

"...!"

Li quickly threw the box in his hand, but under Alicia's slightly narrowed gaze, he quickly picked it back up from the air and placed it obediently on the ground.

"I'm kidding you, it's just some precious photos I took before. My underwear is actually placed here~?"

As she said that, Alicia took out a pink bra from another box. She was so shocked that Li quickly covered her eyes to avoid looking at anything inappropriate.

"Eh? Li, don't you take a look? This is my favorite one~?"

"Please calm down!"

Li let out an unbearable cry.

"Oh? You can't stand this? There are a lot of photos of the female members of our team bathing in that box. If you had just opened it and looked at it... um, wouldn't it be like a river of blood? "

Alicia opened the box, took out some so-called bathing photos, and photographed Li's face, "How do you like it? Do you want to try it?"

"!!!"

Li hurriedly retreated to the door, away from Alicia who was holding a forbidden object in her hand. No wonder she wanted to stop herself just now. Was there such a terrifying thing inside? !

If he really saw it, Ritsuya wasn't sure whether his nosebleed would be able to stop.

"Sorry for disturbing you."

He slammed the door shut and slipped out of the room as if he were fleeing. Hearing the sound, he even jumped from the second floor.

"Really~?"

Alicia put back the selfies in her hand. How could she show Li those photos of other cute girls?

Although she does have those photos, at the bottom, they cannot be easily pulled out.

"Then, it's time to complete the last step of sorting out. How will the cohabitation life with Li turn out in the future?"

Alicia moved in not for surveillance, nor for any other special purpose. She just wanted to keep him company. Li would be lonely if she was alone, right?

……

At lunch time, Li, who had roughly visited the villa, ordered takeout for the two of them. There was no way, there were no ingredients, and even if he wanted to cook by himself after a long time, there was no way. Alicia didn’t know if she could cook, but after experiencing Apo Li, who was baptized by Nia, didn't want to take such unnecessary risks again.

He didn't want to have to go through the disaster of going to the toilet a dozen times a day again.

"Wow~ It's so rich, Li, did you buy this for me? Thank you~?" Alicia came down from upstairs. She had just finished tidying up the room, and there was a little sweat on her forehead. She still looked a little tired. .

In comparison, Ri seemed more relaxed with almost no luggage.

"I ordered two noodle soups, one with beef and one without meat. Which one do you want?"

Li asked, if he hadn't considered that the beautiful girl might need to lose weight and stop eating meat, he wouldn't have changed one of the dishes to plain noodles.

"Hmm... I want that bowl with meat~?"

It's a pity that Li's considerations are unnecessary. Alicia's fat body cannot be grown without eating meat.

"Fine……"

Watching Alicia take away the bowl of meaty noodles, Li's eyes felt a little bit reluctant, but just a little bit, so what if she had vegetarian noodles? It’s just a few less pieces of meat. It doesn’t matter if you’re not full. At worst, buy some snacks.

Sitting across from Alicia, Li just moved his chopsticks when he found that Alicia had put a few pieces of his beef into his bowl.

"Li, boys just have to eat more. If they don't eat more, how can they have the strength to protect the beautiful girls around them?"

"..."

Although I am very grateful to Alicia for her kindness, I still feel that she is very narcissistic...

"Li, do you want to go on a mission with us later? Clean up the Honkai beasts in an infected area."

While eating noodles, Alicia also asked Li for her opinion.

"? I'm still on vacation, aunt."

"Hmph~ Who said 'Team 1 is my home' last time?" Are you going to regret it so soon? The fickle glass? "

"Now and then, even in a normal family, isn't it normal for people to have conflicts and run away from home?"

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu by

"Your tone doesn't sound sad at all..." Li said speechlessly, "And what's more, a gift of acquaintance? Ha, I remember it was you who forced me into your team."

"Hmm~?"

"Forget it... Actually, I have other things to do today. I'm going out to find someone, so I won't go on a mission with you today. Let's wait until tomorrow."

Li was referring to Pado, who survived the disaster in the orphanage. Although she had enough experience in surviving alone, Li still couldn't trust her.

"All right……"

Alicia, who was particularly good at observing people's emotions, nodded without any embarrassment.

"Do you need help? I can call a few people to come and look for you."

"No, you need more manpower when carrying out missions. There is no need to distract your forces for such a trivial matter as mine. Besides, I roughly know where the kitten will appear."

……

In the orphanage, at the ruins caused by the battle between Sakura and Qianjie, Li found Pado squatting on the ruins like a stray cat, holding a black child in her arms. The box, one hand gently caressing it, I don’t know what I’m thinking about.

"Brother Li?"

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching from far away, Pado raised his head and finally saw the familiar face he hadn't seen for a long time. He immediately jumped down from the ruins excitedly, but seemed to have refrained from approaching because of some concerns. He stopped not far in front of him.

"Little Pado, have you been waiting for a long time?"

Li stepped forward with a smile, but his eyes noticed the mysterious black box held in Paduo's hand, and he raised an eyebrow.

That day at Sakura's house, Sakura also explained to him the reason why she went to the orphanage. It was not because she received an order to eliminate the source of Honkai infection, but because the weapons she brought were stolen, and there were people in the orphanage in this regard. Clues, she only entered here for investigation.

At that time, Li felt something was wrong when he heard the word "stolen", and it was related to the orphanage. Now it seems that his guess was indeed right...

Little Pado is the little thief.

However, Li didn't intend to blame her, but directly snatched the black box from Paduo's hand and knocked her on the head.

"The ill-gotten gains have been confiscated."
