"Sir, this is the cake roll you ordered."

At a food stall in Liumengjiao, Hualin took the oak cake roll handed to him by the owner. Seeing that there were not many people around, he approached the owner and asked, "Thank you. Let me introduce myself. My name is... Li Hua. I'm a doctor. May I ask where this place is?"

When you are out and about, you give yourself an identity, especially when facing strangers.

"Huh? Are you a doctor?" After glancing at Hualin's clothes, the boss just looked at Hualin suspiciously and then said nothing more.

Hualin had already changed his clothes. After all, his original windbreaker had holes and blood stains on it, so it was really difficult to wear.

So, Hualin came to this snack stand after "borrowing" a coat from a lucky passerby.

Of course, due to time constraints, Hualin had to choose whoever he saw and had no choice at all.

As for the lucky passerby, let's not disturb his sleep.

"Well, a doctor on vacation." Hualin took a bite of the oak cake roll, then widened his eyes and thought about life.

This texture, this taste... why is it so bitter, not sweet?!

"There's no need for you to save face, sir. This dessert can't even be called a dessert." Seeing that there were no customers, the boss started chatting with Hualin. "Some people think it's brave to eat this without changing their expression, but in my opinion, it's just a shame to save face."

"Pfft... You're right, is there anything to drink? Sweet ones are best."

“Is ice cream okay?”

Although he asked this, the boss still brought an ice cream.

"Thank you."

In this way, Hualin ate ice cream while chatting with the boss until...

"A little girl with one pink and one white?!"

"Ah? Ah, yes." The boss nodded in confusion. "It's mainly because those two are too conspicuous, especially the little girl with long white hair. Her scarlet eyes scared me the first time I saw them. But now that I think about it, they both seem to be strangers. How come you know each other?"

"Um... an assistant and a client. Do you know where they went?"

"You came not long after they left. I had the impression that they went in the direction of the tavern. But we've been talking for so long... You can try your luck there."

"Okay, how many credits?"

"It's my treat, friend."

"......Thanks."

Hualin turned and left. The boss just closed his eyes and was about to take a nap when he heard Hualin's embarrassed voice: "Um... which way is the pub?"

......

"...That's all, understand?"

On Xing's side, he had just finished listening to Liuying's account of everything that had happened and was still thinking about it.

"I...well, I think I understand, so what should we do next?"

"It's very simple. Leave here. Come on, close your eyes." Liuying gently stretched out her hand and gently covered Xing's eyes. "Then take a deep breath and draw the outline of the dream in your mind. Remember, never open your eyes."

"Yeah." Xing responded softly, and Liuying slowly counted down: "Three, two~"

As the firefly counted down, a cloud of black fog suddenly appeared in the sky behind the star. Then, the multi-eyed monster that had pierced the firefly earlier emerged from it.

But Liuying didn't seem surprised by its appearance. She just hugged Xing tightly and whispered in her ear: "...Yi. Don't be afraid. The people who are welcoming us... are here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the monster swung its tail needle and pierced through the two of them.

......

"Aunt Trish, do you have anything else delicious here? Sweet ones are best."

On the other side, Cangye and Sanyue had become acquainted with Aunt Cuisi, the owner of the tavern. They were chatting casually when suddenly someone else's voice was heard:

"I don't know about the sweet ones, but you must avoid the oak cake roll. It tastes bitter and tearful. Eating it is a living hell."

"Hua Lin?!"/"Cang Long?"

"Hmm, I missed me... Eh? What are you two doing, Cangye Sanyue?"

As soon as Hualin showed up, Sanyue and Cangye came over. However, Sanyue checked Hualin for any wounds, while Cangye took out a flying knife and put it against Hualin's abdomen. At the same time, he turned around and said to Cuisi, "Aunt Cuisi, thank you for your hospitality. We have something personal to attend to, so we'll leave first."

"Ah? Oh! Okay."

Cangye and Sanyue left with Hualin, smiling. Then they turned a corner and came to an inconspicuous alley. The smiles on Cangye and Sanyue's faces disappeared.

"Who are you? Hualin would never wear such tasteless clothes."

Looking at Hualin's colorful coat, Sanyue couldn't help but draw her bow and question Hualin: "He wouldn't dress himself up like a rainbow."

"That's right. That guy would never do such a stupid thing as attracting attention." Cangye also echoed Sanyue's words, and the blade in his hand was also placed on his neck. "So tell me the truth, where is your umbrella? Where is the real Hualin?"

"...Is there a possibility that I am the one who changed my clothes because I had no choice?"

"Do you think I'm stupid and easy to deceive? I'm warning you, we haven't even settled the score with you for kissing me yet!"

"What? This is true!" Hualin, who originally wanted to prove that he was the real Hualin, suddenly lost his composure after hearing Sanyue's words.

Pushing Cangye's hand away, Hualin grabbed Sanyue's shoulder tightly and asked, "What did that BYD guy really do to you?!"

"Ah, well..."

Seeing Hualin so excited, Sanyue was a little stunned for a moment, but Cangye, who had reacted, couldn't help but think: With such a violent reaction, could it be the real Canglong?

"March, tell me what that (25th District characteristic swear word) thing did to you."

"Just, just hold hands, hug each other, and then, then..." Sanyue blushed, feeling like she was caught cheating...

Wait, why did I think like this? It was obviously that guy who deceived me by turning into Hualin.

"Then I was forcefully kissed right in front of us." Cangye answered for Sanyue, and emphasized, "The main reason is that no one thought that someone would turn out to look like you, and... I don't think Sanyue can be blamed for this."

“Hahahaha~” Hualin let go of Sanyue and laughed crazily, “Eh hahaha, Tongzi!”

"Hahahaha, letting you die like this is really a bargain for you."

"If I had known that you weren't lying just to irritate me, I would have let you live and let you experience what it felt like when Eric was cut into pieces but survived!"
