Chapter 48 Don’t Whimper...
(I had fixed chapter 43, Velys still not tell Velys about the Apocalypse. Velys just told her about Hikaru is trying to store the food. Sorry about that >"<)
"What the hell just happened, Rika?"
[It's just like you have seen in, master. Laylah has a little interest in you, that's why you get 2,000 luck points.]
Hikaru frowned upon hearing that, he immediately looked towards Laylah, and used the Villain's Insight skill to see her information.
However, when he looked at Laylah's luck point, Hikaru felt a little confused.
That's right, Laylah's luck was still 150,000 points, without any change.
Bizarre! What is happening?
[Master, it seems… if you make Laylah fall in love with you then you and her could become allies. At that time, Laylah can help you earn more luck points.]
Hikaru frowned upon hearing that, he glanced at Laylah, then fell back into thought.
Finally, he shook his head and said, "Okay! I'll just go with the flow… it's better than being her enemy anyway. Laylah is like Amanda Ryrlia, they are both too dangerous and mysterious."
Hikaru sighed, then leaned back on the chair. Laylah glanced at Hikaru and smiled then continued driving.
Of course the places Laylah took him to see were military depots, but in reality, he and Laylah could only see them from afar.
He couldn't even see what was inside because he was surrounded by a fence more than 3 meters high.
Hikaru frowned, he knew places like this would be ideal locations for survivors of the apocalypse.
After going through the locations of food and weapons, Hikaru tried to remember these locations.
Right now he couldn't get what's in the inventory, but that doesn't mean he couldn't get it later.
In the afternoon, Hikaru and Laylah returned to the Noack mansion.
At this time, the villa had been cleaned up, even the trees in the garden had been cleaned, leaving only the lawn.
The outer wall was still being reinforced, however, Hikaru saw that the number of people strengthening it was immense. so maybe it would only take 3-4 days to complete.
Hikaru saw that there were many delivery trucks that were constantly carrying food inside the mansion. Most of the goods were to be packed into cartons and placed outside in the garden.
Laylah saw this and frowned and asked, "What are you… planning to do?"
Hikaru said with a smile: "Ah… I saw that food prices were falling, so I just bought it to stock up."
Although he was teasing Laylah, he felt a little glad that Velys hadn't told her about the Apocalypse.
Otherwise, Laylah would surely know why he bought so much food.
Laylah glanced at Hikaru, she felt that he would definitely not tell her the truth so she stopped asking, and she just said sulkily: "Huh! You took my first kiss, and now you're hiding everything from me."
"Rotten man."
Hikaru: "..."
"Oi! Are you wrong? You're the one who took the initiative, not me."
"I don't need to know."
Seeing Laylah sulking, Hikaru also didn't want to care much. If she didn't like it, she could leave, what he cared about now was how much food this place could hold.
"Hikaru..."
Suddenly, a voice rang out, and Velys ran out from inside the house. Seeing Hikaru, she happily approached him: "Hikaru… Laylah… are you new here?"
Laylah nodded: "Um… Velys, look at Hikaru, he stole my first kiss, now he doesn't care about me..."
Laylah said while hugging Velys. Velys heard that and felt both ashamed and disappointed.
"Hikaru…you…you mustn't bully Laylah, she really likes you. If… if you want to kiss you can kiss me. I will definitely cooperate with you."
Hearing Velys say that, Laylah and Hikaru both blushed. What the hell was happening ? Since when did Velys become so bold?
"Ah… Velys, you have to be careful. Beware he may 'eat' you and then run away, he might not take responsibility." Laylah laughed, her voice filled with amusement.
Velys shook her head and said: "No, I believe he is not that kind of person. But… even if he wasn't responsible, that's fine. As long as he wants it, I'll give it to him."
Hikaru: "..."
Oy! Is this what a girl should say?
Hikaru sighed, he didn't want to continue the topic and asked, "How are things?"
Velys nodded and replied: "The inside of the villa has been cleaned up, even the traces have been cleaned..."
Hikaru knew the 'traces' that Velys was talking about, those were the bullet marks and the bloodstains of the thugs he had shot yesterday. He was confident that Velys had handled them safely.
Velys continued: "Currently, there is a problem with food procurement. First of all, even though this place has two rooms to store food and both have ventilation systems, they are still too small."
"The amount of food that needs to be stocked is so much, even I think that it's enough to fill the entire mansion."
"Besides, because the amount of food in the shopping centers and companies in this city is not much. Therefore, to buy more food, we need to go to another city."
"But to do that will take a lot of time. After all, transporting a huge amount of food would take anywhere from a few days to half a month."
Hikaru nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about that, just try to buy as much food as possible."
"There is no need to order food from another city, just buying food in this city is fine for now."
"But you don't need to focus only on food, you need to pay attention to water."
Velys nodded and replied, "I also bought a lot of water and gasoline. I dare not buy generators because their noise is very loud."
Hikaru smiled, he felt that Velys worked perfectly. With her, he didn't have to worry about many other problems.
He knew Velys was worried that the noise generated by the generator might attract many monsters, especially Zombies.
But there's also Laylah here, so she couldn't say it either. However…
Hikaru glanced at Laylah, what he was worried about was that Laylah could predict what he was doing was to prepare for the Apocalypse.
Anyway, she guessed that he wasn't Hikaru and so on. Her thinking was extremely bizarre but her intuition was also extremely accurate.
If Laylah knew about the end of the world, then Hikaru's advantage would disappear.
Laylah frowned and glanced at Hikaru, her eyes filled with doubt and confusion.
"Velys… why are you preparing so much food l? Can you tell me?" Laylah smiled at Velys.
She knew that even if she asked Hikaru, he wouldn't tell, so she could only ask Velys.
"Hm… sorry, Laylah, I can't say this. Otherwise… Hikaru will be mad at me." Velys' face didn't show any emotion, as she spoke in a very calm manner.
Laylah sighed at that, she then glanced at Hikaru with sulky eyes.
Hikaru saw this, and he laughed in his heart. Hahaha… guess what I'll do? Hahaha… guess! Guess correctly and you will be rewarded!
Huh! Even if you think about it till next year, you won't be able to think that the end of the world is coming, hahaha…
Laylah frowned and said, "You prepare so much food and water, it proves that in the future these resources will be very scarce."
"Could it be… a war will happen?"
Hikaru took a deep breath when he heard that, this line of thinking was too scary. Although Laylah did not guess correctly, the answer she gave was close to the correct answer.
Hikaru hurriedly said, "No! No… the world is at peace, there's no way war breaks out, right, Velys?"
"That's right." Velys also cooperated with Hikaru: "Laylah, you've been thinking too much. Hikaru just wanted to create a place just for him and me. We will live in this place, and never enter human society again."
Hikaru: "..."
Velys, do you know that the reason you just gave is even more unbelievable?
Velys completely ignored Hikaru's expression, she looked at him and said: "Hikaru, as long as you want, I will cooperate with you. You can have as many children as you want me to…"
"Enough! Enough!" Hikaru heard Velys' words and felt fear. Do you believe I will report to the police that you are sexually harassing me?
Hikaru felt scared, maybe one day Velys would capture him and lock him in the basement forever. Then she would milk his milk every day, his life at that time would be no different from a dairy cow.
Laylah now frowned, and she pouted, she felt aggravated.
Are you two bullying me? 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜
Laylah suddenly laughed and said, "Velys, if I were Hikaru's girlfriend, could I stay here?"
Velys felt a bit awkward, she looked at Laylah, then looked at Hikaru again and said: "This place belongs to him, ask him if he allows you to stay here."
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Laylah looked at Hikaru with eyes like an abandoned puppy.
He pouted his lips and said: "Don't be pitiful, you are a policeman, do you think I would let a policeman be by my side all the time?"
"Huh! If you're a good person then you don't have to be afraid of me. Besides… wouldn't it be more interesting to have a girlfriend who's a police officer? Especially when we…"
"Enough!" Hikaru shook his head and said, "Sorry, this place has no place for you, please leave."
Laylah puffed out her cheeks, and sulked.
"Don't puff up your cheeks." Hikaru said contemptuously.
"Hix.. hix…"
"Don't whimper."
Laylah gritted her teeth, she was really angry. She didn't think that the young man who stole her first kiss wasn't attracted to her.
In fact… Hikaru was also holding back because Laylah was too cute. She was like a mysterious and charming older sister when he first met her.
Now she was making cute expressions like a little girl.
But he knew that Laylah was just acting…
