Chapter 76 Forgot to Buy

  "Is that how you're going to handle it?" C.C. held the newly acquired Cheese Kun, her two fingers still pinching a sealed card, as she gazed at Nine Lives with an ambiguous smile, whose expression seemed somewhat embarrassed.

  All the electrical appliances that were blown up have been replaced, but there is one thing he forgot - he forgot to buy clothes. Now if he goes... those shops are probably closed too, and he'll have to wait until tomorrow to go shopping.

  So facing the green-haired girl wrapped in a bath towel, Jiǔ Mìng felt that he was now very embarrassed.

  "Well, I feel a bit relieved after it's all over."

  "Really?" C.C.'s eyes gazed at the sealed card pinched between her two fingers, looking slightly dazed.

  Name: Stealth

  Type: Skill

  [Attribute: None]

  Precautions: None

  Note: La la la! I am a small stone on the side of the road... A must-have skill for assassins!

  This is the ability that was deprived... In the words of the Nine Lives, it's a 'fair trade'. That black merchant sacrificed his own superpower in exchange for avoiding this calamity brought by the Nine Lives' handband. Isn't it fair?

  Looking at this sealed card, C.C. has initially confirmed that Nine has the ability to let her get rid of the 'Eternal Curse' that has been weighing on her heart.

  It's also because of this incident that she saw more clearly, wanting nine lives to do so is too difficult!

  "I thought you would be so angry as to make a clean sweep of the place."

  "Hey, your instigation is too bloody! You know I've never taken a life since I started out!" Jiǔ Mìng thought for a moment, and it seemed to be true, currently not a single life was hanging on his hands.

  "It was because you were afraid and didn't dare to kill people." C.C.'s mouth corners slightly rose.

  "I feel like your words are full of malice." Jiǔ Mìng shook his head, "I'm not some kind of psychologically abnormal freak who goes around killing people I don't like. As he spoke, Jiǔ Mìng also glanced at the small energy converter, which was operating normally - this one wasn't a fake like last time.

  "Think whatever you want, there's no other clothes here? Even if it's men's clothing, I don't really mind." C.C. opened her arms and slightly puffed out her chest, causing Nine's eyes to twitch again at the corners, and the towel almost fell off with her movement.

  "When did you hear that ghosts need to prepare clothes?" Jiǔ Mìng sighed, what a oversight.

  Ghost? C.C gave her an extra glance.

  "It's those superstitious story existences in the Chinese Federation... Oh, I forgot this isn't my world anymore."

  "Oh? Can you tell me about the Chinese Federation in your world?" Jiǔ Mìng suddenly became interested, this title should be referring to the Heavenly Dynasty.

  C.C waved the sealed card in her hand, "First tell me how this thing is used?"

  "Just crush it."

  Her fingers were slightly bent, apparently applying pressure to the sealed card. After a while, she even used both hands to pry it open, but there was no sign of damage to the sealed card. Was it fake?

  "Well, this thing is now my property, so no one else can touch it." After she had done some useless work, Jiǔ Mìng slowly continued to explain, then slightly tilted her head and reached out to grab the sealed card that was flying over at high speed.

  Nine lives regretted, gone! Just now, nothing was done to make him die, but he had already been hooked by C.C's words about the world. However, because of his loose tongue, she threw over this sealed card and Nine Lives turned pale in an instant, saying very dryly, "I'm sleepy."

  What's done cannot be undone?

  Alright, maybe it's a welfare broadcast...

  A towel barely covered her private parts, while other areas were still eye-catching, most notably the long legs that were almost exposed to the thigh root.

  "Hey, if you're going to sleep, go to the bedroom, it's cold here... although I don't know if you'll catch a cold or not." With that unusually quick recovery ability, catching a cold should be impossible, right? The Nine Lives probably didn't need to add that extra sentence, and the overall effect of the sentence might have been better without it.

  "I'm not interested in that kind of bedroom which is like a sealed chamber."

  "....Alright, can you move a bit? How did you occupy my position again?"

  After going out for a trip and coming back, he found that C.C. had occupied his exclusive sofa like a magpie occupying a cuckoo's nest.

  "Then go sleep on the floor."

  Who is the guest here after all? Although there is a thick carpet on the floor, it's okay to sleep on the ground, but... forget it, just compromise and lie down on another sofa.

  After lying down, the nine lives in his mind couldn't help but recall C.C.'s figure, with the deepest impression being her naked body. Has puberty also arrived for himself?

  Wave away the figure that keeps emerging in his mind, Jiǔ Mìng let out a yawn and forced himself to fall asleep.

  The next day, Jiǔ Mìng was woken up by the sound of someone eating, and it was already early in the morning, holding a pizza as breakfast, what kind of level is this!?!

  After opening his eyes, Jiǔ Mìng looked at C.C. with a slightly dazed expression as she slowly ate a slice of pizza. This was simply an extreme obsession with pizza - wasn't she afraid of getting tired of it? From a stored card, several slices of pizza were pulled out, and after wolfing them down, Jiǔ Mìng patted his hands and stood up. Seeing that C.C. still didn't pay attention to him, he couldn't help but let out a light cough.

  "Cough, I'm going out to buy clothes."

  As usual, he quickly bought a coat and a big hat to cover up most of the abnormalities on his body. Only then did Jiǔ Mìng relax and take action again. He got hold of today's newspaper and casually flipped through it for a while. Jiǔ Mìng saw a news report about last night's explosion, which was more or less consistent with what had happened. It said that an old, privately used small energy converter had malfunctioned and exploded...

  It's like someone's gas tank exploded at home.

  How easy is it to buy clothes?

  With a glance, he could tell her height was 1.68 meters. No need to use a ruler, he directly walked into a high-end clothing store that looked very impressive, and picked out several clothes that fit her height without even trying them on. As for bargaining?

  It was too troublesome, so in the end the waitress sent him out with a smile all over her face and also gave him a membership card...

  "Are you really that naive?"

  After returning with nine lives, C.C. eyed these clothes, although they all fit well... or perhaps fit, at least there was no difference in height, but had he forgotten something?

  "What?"

  "Huh?" Jiǔ Mìng was slightly stunned, and simply spread his hands, "......I forgot, this really wasn't intentional on my part, what a hassle, I'll just make another trip."

  Shaking his head, Jiǔ Mìng (Nine Lives) reluctantly went out again, "Huh? What's this? Dust? So much..."

  On the road, Jiǔ Mìng saw some tiny particles falling in front of his eyes and was a bit puzzled. Is someone nearby sprinkling ash for no reason?

  He looked up at the sky and seemed to see a few small black dots flying like birds, waving in front of him. Jiǔ Mìng walked into a store under the gaze of a group of people who were looking at him strangely, his outfit of a large coat with a hat that could cover his face was really too easy to misunderstand, and this was still in the middle of summer!

  If you have nothing to hide, why would you be treated like this for no reason?

  People are not ice cream, wrapped in thick blankets can keep cool.

  "Cough... I'll buy some **."

  Not to mention other people's gaze, even the nine lives are a bit ashamed to speak out loud. The old men entering the women's specialty store feel really embarrassed!

  Fortunately, the store clerk here was well-behaved and tried to ignore Jiǔ Mìng's strange attire as much as possible, barely squeezing out a professional smile.

  Ran out of the store, took a long breath, and finally didn't have to be stared at with weird eyes anymore. After looking around, Jiǔ Mìng thought for a while and continued walking towards the next place, target: bookstore!

  Another fierce sweep, the boss of the bookstore was grinning from ear to ear, it's great to meet such a big spender who buys everything he sees...

  Refused the free delivery service of the bookstore owner, Jiǔ Mìng shook his head. If he hadn't wanted to stop running afterwards, he wouldn't have bothered buying so many things. If he hadn't suddenly thought that there was still an empty bookshelf at home, he wouldn't have bothered making this trip. What else did he need to buy?

  Oh, right, it seems like there's no internet or TV signal in this mysterious shop...

  As for pulling network cables, it's completely unnecessary to think about it, it's simply impossible. He still doesn't know which company's network cable can be cool enough to span dimensions.

  "What is this...... Ah?" The nine-tailed fox was pulled by the owner of the CD store to a corner, staring blankly at a box that the owner had brought out.

  "Hey, if you hadn't bought so much at once, I wouldn't have brought out these treasured items."

  Embarrassing adult video...

  "Young people, they just don't understand the beauty of the adult world." The boss of the store shook his head and gazed at Jiuming with a melancholy expression as he walked away with an unusual look on his face. As Jiuming walked further away, he hesitated for a moment, wondering if it would be more appropriate to call the police and report it.

  "Oh, right, let's get this too." Knocking on the door of her mind, Jiuxin turned around and walked into another store, buying not just anything else, but an electromagnetic stove plus pots and pans, and even a microwave oven... Although it was unlikely she would use them, since she rarely cooked for herself, she decided to go all out and get everything.

  What if it really comes in handy later?

  Unexpectedly, there was still something missing. Jiǔ Mìng nodded in satisfaction and headed home, only to catch a glimpse of... uh, it seems we have a guest. I didn't sense their presence earlier... hmm, they must have entered at the same time as me.

  Jiǔ Mìng stared at the door, sizing it up. A little girl came out from behind, wearing tattered clothes and with a bruise on her face. Jiǔ Mìng immediately turned his head to look at C.C., "You when you were young?"

  She was also a bit dazed, but it was just for a very short moment. After all, the person who came was... uh, how to say it, similar to her only in that one eye-catching green hair. "Your joke is boring."
