Bizarre Honkai, a Wife-Chasing Crematorium

Thinking of this, Li Mo picked up the bowl again and started to eat heartily.

He endured the strong gamy taste and sent the cooked meat into his mouth.

He hardly chewed and just swallowed it down his throat, leaving the task of processing the food to his stomach.

Stomach: This is a high-level game.

"Ugh... ugh..."

After eating, Li Mo couldn't hold it in and instinctively dry-heaved a few times.

"I'm sorry, Sakura. I'm not used to it."

Sakura lowered her head and stood there, apologizing repeatedly, "I'm sorry... Mo-kun. Sakura will practice her cooking skills in the future and strive to make food that satisfies you. Sakura will work hard... to become a perfect wife and meet all of Mo-kun's needs..."

Li Mo wiped the corners of his mouth, walked to Sakura's side, and patted her head, comforting her, "It's not your fault, it's the environment's problem. The conditions here are really limited. It's hard for anyone to make delicious food. You've already done your best."

"I'm sorry... Sakura didn't do a good job and disappointed Mo-kun..." Sakura still lowered her head in self-abasement, not looking at Li Mo.

Looking at such a virtuous Sakura, Li Mo actually had a momentary impulse to stay in this world forever.

But fortunately, he was very clear-headed. There were people he couldn't let go of in reality, so he had to go back sooner or later. Although it sounded a bit like a scumbag, he thought he should focus on reality.

But... what about Sakura?

Li Mo was torn inside. The options given in the multiple-choice question were all contradictory, so he could only put it aside for the time being.

"By the way, Sakura, let's build a house, in the forest!" Li Mo suggested.

Sakura finally looked up, tilted her head, and asked in confusion, "Build a house?"

Li Mo smiled confidently and nodded, "That's right. Although there are ready-made ones in the village, I always feel that something is missing. This world is too deserted. I want to create something with you, something with our symbol, something that only belongs to us."

In fact, there was indeed no entertainment to pass the time. Could it be that they had to do it until the end of time?

Li Mo knew very well that Sakura would definitely be willing, but he couldn't stand it. He was just an ordinary person. Even though he was in his prime, he couldn't stand Sakura's increasingly skillful techniques and sensitive methods.

A man must protect his kidneys well. In his limited experience, Li Mo had come to a very precious conclusion.

"Sakura will listen to Mo-kun. Whatever Mo-kun wants to do, Sakura will do."

"Thank you," Li Mo said thank you reflexively, but was stopped by the softness on his lips.

After licking it clean, Sakura licked her lips again, "Help Mo-kun clean up the dirt. Does Mo-kun think it's clean?"

"It's done, it's done. There's no more, really. Let's go find the materials first. Building a house will require a lot of wood."

Li Mo answered immediately, afraid that if he answered slowly, Sakura would start to get handsy.

He pulled Sakura and ran into the woods.

Reality, hospital.

On the cold hospital bed, Li Mo's whole body was filled with test tubes and things similar to wires.

The tipsy sunlight had faded a little. It shone on Li Mo's face through the window lattice, only adding a little blood color.

Rin stood by the window silently, her eyes staring straight at Li Mo on the hospital bed.

Occasionally, she would glance at the instruments, which showed all data as normal.

"Brother, how long until you wake up..."

Rin's expression was cold. As she spoke, she approached the pale Li Mo on the hospital bed. She got on the bed awkwardly, sat sideways, and pinched Li Mo's cheek.

"The doctor said that if you haven't woken up in three days, from the current medical point of view, you can only be judged to have become a vegetable. Your brain is active, but you can never wake up. In that case, I can inherit all the property left by Sister Beichen."

"So... wake up quickly."

Rin picked up the schoolbag on the cabinet, turned around, and left the ward.

After school, she rushed to Li Mo's hospital to visit him without any delay. The situation was not optimistic.

This was different from when consciousness and person were in a coma at the same time. The instrument detected that Li Mo's consciousness was very active, but he just couldn't wake up. The most terrifying thing was that the examination couldn't find anything wrong.

This meant that there was currently no effective treatment for this phenomenon, and they could only leave it to fate.

Back home, the lights that had been left on in the morning were not turned off. The doors of the three bedrooms were all open.

Rin threw her schoolbag on the sofa, walked from the living room to her bedroom, and couldn't help but glance at Beichen's room as she passed by. It was empty.

The first time Li Mo fell into a coma, Beichen had contacted someone to send Li Mo to the hospital for an examination, and then never returned home.

Rin was very smart. She had realized early on that Beichen's attitude towards Li Mo was definitely not that of an ordinary sister towards a younger brother.

Without Li Mo, Beichen would naturally not stay here, not even for a second.

She had more important things to do, but compared to those, Li Mo was a more important person, which was why she was willing to put them aside.

"It's really... the house was so lively the day before yesterday, but today I'm the only one left."

Rin said self-deprecatingly. She changed her clothes in her room and went out.

Walking to the roadside, there was a strange smell in the air, a mixture of suffocating car exhaust and the aroma of a barbecue stall. Since being adopted by Beichen, she had not been back to that ordinary home for a long time.

Rin stood at the entrance of the community without entering. She watched in silence. People gathered in groups of three or five by the roadside, their arms around each other's shoulders, walking towards a restaurant, where they drank and clinked glasses.

Parents and friends chatted happily, while children sat in a corner with their phones, happy that they had a chance to play video games, occasionally shouting some famous memes, "My gun comes and goes, your horse goes and never returns!"

Rin turned and left, wandering aimlessly on the street. Occasionally, young couples would hold hands, leaving their happy figures in the night.

The stars and the neon signs twinkled, and the noise was everywhere, but Rin felt extremely peaceful.

"So that's how it is. When you're alone, the world is always quiet."

Rin bought two hot dogs on the street. Only after buying them did she realize, "I bought too many."

"..."

"Actually, it's not much."

Two hot dogs, even a girl could easily finish them. It was just that since her parents had died three years ago and she and her sister had been adopted by relatives, it was very normal to be hungry for one or two meals a day.

At that time, two hot dogs were very precious, so it seemed like a lot, because it was hard for them to get.

Rin bought another cup of milk tea and a few skewers of barbecue. After packing them, she prepared to take a bus home.

"Let's go home. I've been out for too long."

Rin sat on the chair at the bus stop and waited patiently. She passed by several taxis without taking one.

For her, money was very important. Even if Beichen didn't care, she couldn't take it for granted and use someone else's money.

Even Li Mo would not usually buy some expensive food.

Then, as a nominal sister, Rin chose to consider her family's feelings and would not do things that her family disliked.

On the internet, Rin had seen many "exquisite pig girls" and glamorous "socialites."

Although she was still young, Rin knew very well that this kind of ideological transformation was very bad, although most people in reality were also deceiving themselves.

Everyone was an ordinary person. You couldn't take it for granted and live a life beyond your means.

"Little sister, are you waiting for the bus?"

Rin looked over. A beautiful and lovely white-haired girl was sitting next to her. Her sweet smile was like the never-setting summer sun. Her easygoing voice made Rin feel very warm and close.

The white-haired girl gently tapped her cheek, her eyes bright.

Rin was lost in thought. After coming back to her senses, she nodded, "Mmm... mmm, I'm waiting for the No. 27 bus."

The white-haired girl turned her head, glanced at the empty road, took out her phone, and scanned the time, "Good, there's still the last round of the last bus. It's too dangerous to be alone outside at night. I'll accompany you."

Rin returned a smile, "Thank you. Sister is beautiful and very nice."

Rin was not lying. The other party was indeed very beautiful. Although not as good as Beichen in full makeup, she was still one of the best in a crowd.

White hair and blue eyes, simple yet exquisite dress, delicate skin. From her appearance, she should be about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Hearing the praise, the white-haired girl's smile became even more brilliant, "Little sister speaks so nicely. Then let sister give you a gift, okay?"

"Forget it. We just met. It's not good for me to take a gift from sister. It makes me seem too materialistic. I appreciate the sentiment, but the gift is not necessary," Rin tactfully refused.

Don't casually accept gifts from strangers outside. Rin would not fall for all kinds of scams for a small gain.

"A little sad. The gift I'm talking about is just a few words," the white-haired girl said.

"Huh? The gift is a few words? Then sister can say it," Rin replied.

The white-haired girl stretched out her hand and held up two fingers, "The seat by the window in the second to last row of the bus will give you a clearer view."

Rin was bewildered. Wasn't the driver's seat the clearest?

Not counting the driver, then the front row would be clearer. Why the second to last row?

Rin was too embarrassed to directly expose the lie, so she could only pretend to agree, "Is, is that so?"

The white-haired girl added, "Actually, it's about the same no matter where you sit. The second to last row just lets you see the inside of the bus clearly. You know, the last bus will ask if there are any passengers who want to get off before each stop. When you confirm that the bus is about to arrive at the stop you need to get off at, you should respond to the driver in time."

Rin was puzzled and retorted, "Isn't there a button to request a stop on the bus? When everyone sees that they are about to arrive at their stop, they just press the button, and the driver will know that someone is getting off and will stop and open the door."

The white-haired girl smiled even more happily, her expression intriguing.

"That's right. The stop request button is for people to use. Everything on the bus knows that only people will press the button."

Only people will press the button. What... is wrong with that?

Rin was stunned for two seconds. She suddenly seemed to remember something, turned to look at the white-haired girl, and asked half-believingly, "Is it what I'm thinking?"

"Who knows?"

"Then I'll walk home."

"Didn't anyone tell you that you can't escape from this kind of existence? You know this kind of existence, so you should know that you can't escape. Even if you get on a plane now and fly thousands of meters in the air, you will still come to this station, and the ghost bus will still drive in front of you. You have no choice."

Rin had just stood up and taken a few steps. After hearing the white-haired girl's words, she stopped in place. She pursed her lips and endured her fear, returning to her seat at the station.

At the same time, Rin quickly scanned her surroundings and found something abnormal.

Quiet, too quiet.

This was the city center. Even at night, it shouldn't be so deserted.

Not to mention the idle people who were still drinking and eating barbecue at one or two in the morning. Even for ordinary people, there would be some office workers who could only take the last bus because of overtime.

But where were the people nearby?

Oh no...

Rin suddenly realized that she had unknowingly triggered a ghost's rule and had stepped into this station. But without Sister Beichen's help, how could she possibly get out of a supernatural event she knew nothing about?

No, calm down. Rin, you can do it. As long as you observe carefully enough, you might be able to find a loophole.

Ghosts can't be killed. You can't have any luck of killing them. You can only seize the loopholes in the rules and use them.

Wait?

Rin turned to look at the white-haired girl, pointed her finger at her and said, "Then aren't you the same as me? You both triggered the rule, otherwise how did you get here?"

The white-haired girl nodded, "Yes, but don't ask me what the trigger rule is. I don't know either. Little sister, we are grasshoppers on the same boat now. Do you like this gift?"

The corner of Rin's mouth twitched. She carefully looked at the white-haired girl, trying to see some fear and sadness on her face.

But the result was a failure. The other party's calmness was as if she didn't care at all that she had triggered a ghost's rule. But what was her confidence? Was it that she knew all the rules on the bus, so she knew how to not be attacked by ghosts?

Rin was still struggling in her heart, but the white-haired girl directly pointed out her doubts.

"Don't worry, I only know a part of it. There are many killing rules on the bus."

"Since you can still sit here and talk to me, it means that at least you know how to survive. But this method is just a temporary solution, and you can't completely escape this bus. That's why you are sitting here again."

Hearing Rin's analysis, the white-haired girl's lips moved slightly. She cast an admiring gaze at Rin, and her index finger shook, "Little sister, you are very smart, but you only got half of it right."

"Which half?" Rin pressed.

Her analysis was all for a reason, one point to another. Why did it only get half right? Either all right or all wrong would be in line with her expectations.

"Every half of every sentence," the white-haired girl answered truthfully, with a faint smile on her lips, "You will know in the future, provided you can get off the bus alive."

"Can you give me a hint, sister~~ I think you are so beautiful, even more beautiful than Sister Beichen~~"

Rin took the initiative to approach the white-haired girl, her two hands wrapped around the white-haired girl's arm, and her body swayed gently.
