Chapter 288 -288 Lin Xue Arrives

Another Sunday…Well, actually, for us idlers, the days of the week have already lost their meaning…

After doing nothing around the house for so many days, I suddenly realized that our whole family was practically bored to the point of growing hair.

Naturally, the former group of three Lolies, now joined by Lilina and Visca to form the group of five Lolies, wouldn’t hit the streets causing terror, which is a testament to the good deeds of my past life. Sandora was living a pig-like life of eating, eating, and then sleeping at home. Big Sister no longer needed to go to work. As for Qianqian, she was perpetually skipping classes since the knowledge shared by Xyrin Technicians had already far surpassed human civilization by several levels, making attending classes completely unnecessary. And me? Well, I’m just like Qianqian, seeing as my life goal was to slack off, right?

Then there are the other two permanent members of the household, Alaya and Anwina. Who do you think between them is suitable to go out and find something to do?

So, we started living a genuinely idle life, just waiting to grow hair…

“I think we can’t go on like this.”

During dinner, the typically gentle Big Sister suddenly looked serious and said in a very earnest tone.

Then Little Baobao, sitting next to her waiting to be fed, immediately raised both hands and eagerly agreed.

…A certain little dummy who can’t even speak had her own opinion, and we were still clueless…

“I mean, shouldn’t we at least find something to do?” Big Sister surveyed the room only to see everyone looking perplexed, feeling a bit deflated, “We’re almost molding over here…”

“Oh…”

Everyone quickly understood.

It seemed like Big Sister, who was used to being industrious from a young age, couldn’t stand such an idyllic loafing lifestyle anymore and was planning to find something to relieve the boredom.

“But what to do?” We deeply agreed with Sister’s suggestion. After all, a life of saving the world when busy and loafing around when not to such an extreme degree was almost painful, though the relaxed life post-world-saving war was quite pleasant…cough, okay, I admit I was being negative just now.

Sandora slurped up the last bit of soup in front of her and then casually broke the spoon in her hand into pieces, chewed them like chocolate beans, and swallowed, saying, “Is it because you’re bored that you want to find something to do? Human ideas are really strange…such meaningless self-consumption is really a waste…”

…I had totally surrendered to Sandora’s habit of eating utensils after meals…Anyway, not many of us here are normal, right?

“Come to think of it, it really is because of boredom…” Big Sister rested her cheek on her hand, pondering, “We’re not short of money…”

Not being short of money is the basis for our current parasitic life…

Although there are such annoying idiots like Sicaro, most Imperial Officers had successfully integrated into the human world after a set period of acclimation. Unbeknownst to me, these guys had already started setting up their base of power in the human world—intelligence, funds, connections, as if premeditated, establishing a staggering system capable of firmly rooting itself and thriving in this world. I even suspect they had invaded other alien civilizations in a similar manner before…

No doubt, such arrangements were definitely Pandora’s handiwork. Despite being an often hot-headed dummy, Pandora was more concerned than anyone else about conquest-oriented matters. She set the direction, then Sivis handled the details. These two golden partners involved in flipping world regimes countless times probably couldn’t even keep track of their actions themselves. Should I say it’s a huge stroke of luck for humanity that those commanders haven’t secretly controlled human society yet?

Though it’s still early days, these Imperial Officers couldn’t possibly, without using unconventional power, have taken over both the underworld and legitimate businesses within a few months—though feeding a few parasites was more than manageable…

Such an egregiously exploitative exchange of laborious efforts for a comfortable capitalist life, right?

But if such a wonderful life didn’t require firefighting in another world every now and then, it would be even more perfect…

“Speaking of which, aren’t we part of a really powerful organization?”

Just as we were all frowning with the discontent of a wealthy bored life, looking like the epitome of wicked capitalists, Lilina suddenly chimed in.

And then it dawned on us all.

“Seems like it…” Qianqian looked around and muttered.

An organization composed of aliens, Earthlings, undead creatures, angels, and even a God, with two corps’ worth of high-tech military under its command and influence extending beyond this world…barring our leaders’ lack of organization and discipline, we didn’t seem like idle personnel after all…

“But it’s still boring!”

Qianqian spread her hands in the end, hitting the core issue of the matter.

Sandora finished her meal in front of her and then gave me an annoyed look, saying, “If you guys paid just a little more attention to your subordinates’ affairs, would things be this boring? Those officers at all levels are usually very busy.”

Hey, hey, hey, you just said “you guys,” right? Then why are you only staring at me? There should be more than just me involved in managing things, right? Big Sister and Qianqian are usually the same, aren’t they?

But Sandora’s pointed question indeed made me ashamed, because, come to think of it, we are now considered one of the top gangs in the Human world, but we just idly hang around every day, and that’s really…

“You guys are bored to death, but we are about to go crazy!”

Just as we, a group of idlers, were about to start ruminating on life while eating sunflower seeds, a spiritual connection that had been missing for several days suddenly burst into the public channel, and I, thunderstruck, yelled out, “Grab your weapons!”

“You bastard, you think this Miss can’t see?” Lin Xue’s fierce voice once again echoed in my mind, “Hurry up and open the door for me! It’s so dark outside, aren’t you worried about a girl standing out here?”

…Don’t worry, I’m too worried, I wouldn’t even worry about hooligans, let alone you, who excels in Muay Thai, Inch Fist, Yong Chun, Eight Diagram, Tai Chi, Baji Fist, and Judo.

Well, at least the appearance of a certain trouble-maker saved my ailing heart, right?

After confirming that only Lin Xue and the already informed Ding Ling had arrived, Anwina floated off to open the door, and then we sat in the living room, counting seconds.

“Three, two, one…”

“Ah—” Ding Ling’s scream precisely timed.

Qianqian casually threw the decibel meter she held onto the table, then happily patted my shoulder, “I won! Today you do the dishes!”

Then I patted Sandora’s shoulder, “Today you do the dishes!”

“Why?” The blonde girl looked aggrieved.

“…Can’t you see how many plates are stacked on your place?”

“…what if I eat all of them, does that mean I don’t have to wash?”

Only a super glutton like you could come up with and actually apply such a solution!

Just as we idle folks were about to delve into a new round of agony, Lin Xue’s voice finally cut across from the living room entrance, “I mean… even if you’re going to be bored, set some limits, will you?”

I looked towards the voice, just in time to see Lin Xue dragging in the still-dazed Ding Ling into the living room, followed by a Ghost Maid who wore a nervous expression as if she had done something wrong.

Ding Ling feared ghosts, a fact we’d known for a long time, and I had just bet with Qianqian on how loud Ding Ling’s scream would be when it reached the living room… It’s clear that if we didn’t do something soon, we idlers would truly start to mold over…

Just like being at her own home, Lin Xue unceremoniously sat down on the couch next to us, and nonchalantly grabbed a bottle of orange juice from the tray Anwina just brought over and gulped it down with vigor, while casually tossing Ding Ling to the side.

“Um…” Ding Ling, roughly handled by Lin Xue, finally came to her senses and shook her head before looking up.

Anwina immediately floated over with the tray, her face adorned with an overly sweet smile.

Ding Ling: “…Ah!”

Without hesitation, Lin Xue shoved the bottle in her hand into Ding Ling’s mouth, effectively blocking the impending ultrasonic attack.

“There, stop embarrassing yourself, will you…”

Ding Ling, still visibly shaken, “You know my weakness…”

“Master…” Anwina drifted over slowly, asking in a low voice with a hint of pity, “Did I do something wrong…”

“All right, all right,” it was unexpected that even having met her once, Ding Ling still had such a huge reaction to Anwina’s presence, making me feel somewhat awkward, “Let’s talk business, serious business…”

“You know about serious business…” Lin Xue muttered discontentedly, then put on a serious expression, “I believe Little Feng has already told you some of what’s going on, but there’s been another complication… Specifically, two separate issues have suddenly become intertwined, making everything more complicated, which is why I came to you, this big wooden head, for help…”
