“Four degrees? What does that even mean? I thought there were only three degrees. Are you an idiot? Did all your brain cells migrate to your chest?”
Mianxian paused for a moment, then burst into unrestrained mockery.
It was hard to imagine, but in reality, Mianxian was a medical student, which made it easy for her to casually use medical terms in conversation.
However, when it came to really heated arguments, everyone was the same, only able to blurt out a single expletive.
“Yeah, you’re right about that. So, fourth-degree burns probably just leave behind ashes, right?”
A dangerous smile played on Miti’s lips.
The next moment, the raging fire spread to the corners of the ceiling, with sparks drifting onto the bedding, scorching countless holes.
It made Su Mu’s heart ache with distress.
“Don’t burn the medicine again! And the most crucial thing, the computer, is right next to the battlefield, at constant risk of being damaged by the fire.”
“Miti, could you at least not burn the computer? There’s a lot of important stuff on it, and it’s really expensive…”
“I know that.”
Miti, of course, was aware.
Her desire to protect the contents of the computer was no less than Su Mu’s, after all, she had just reached the most exciting climax.
However, before Su Mu could let out a sigh of relief, Mianxian on the opposite side keenly sensed this.
Her amber cat eyes narrowed slightly, and in the next moment, her figure blurred into a residual image, bringing a gust of wind that made everyone’s vision blur.
She had already crouched on the computer desk.
And right under her paw was what Su Mu had been so worried about—the monitor.
“It seems you value this thing quite a bit. Surrender now, or I’ll crush it,” she said.
Indeed, as a female medical student, Mianxian had always used her phone and laptop, and she didn’t even know the difference between a monitor and a computer.
Seeing this, Su Mu couldn’t help but inwardly grumble.
Is this girl really a cat girl?
Not only is she excessively stupid, but she doesn’t even add a “meow” at the end of her sentences.
It’s maddening.
Wait, this isn’t the time to dwell on that.
The monitor is expensive too!
Mianxian had already stood up with the monitor in her arms, her gray and white striped cat tail excitedly swaying back and forth, looking fluffy.
“Hurry up and answer. Why are you so slow? Do you still want your beloved computer?”
Seeing Miti just watching her with a teasing look, Mianxian gradually became impatient.
Her right paw instantly left a deep claw mark on the monitor screen.
At that moment, Su Mu felt her heart bleeding.
And Mianxian’s paw was still moving.
Su Mu’s patience reached its limit.
Even I, a mouse, have a temper!
“Enough, you stupid cat! Put my monitor down!”
Unintentionally, Su Mu infused some magic into her words, making her voice more penetrating, like a bolt of thunder exploding in Mianxian’s ears.
Her ability was to enhance her speech, which had always been most effective when infuriating people online, but now it made Mianxian lose her focus for a moment.
Her eyes suddenly dimmed, and her hands subconsciously lost their strength.
The monitor slipped from her grasp, fell, and unfortunately shattered into pieces.
At that moment, Su Mu’s heart, which had been hanging in suspense, seemed to let go.
“Miti, grab her. I want to teach her a lesson. I want to teach her with my own hands!”
But Miti was also helpless.
It was too difficult to fight while protecting the computer.
Now, she could only hope that the other party would be deterred and leave the room quickly.
As long as they were in an open space, subduing this little cat would be no problem at all.
Mianxian, who had slowly come to her senses from Su Mu’s scolding, immediately became panicked.
Her previously sharp claws gradually returned to small palms.
It’s over.
I accidentally destroyed the computer, and I’ve been harshly hated by the admired Senior Erina.
What should I do now?
“I’m sorry, Senior Erina. I didn’t mean to. I’ll come find you again next time.”
Mianxian, who felt the gaze of the two people in the room like thorns on her back, could no longer stay for even half a second and immediately used her ability to escape.
Even Miti couldn’t stop her in time.
Mianxian’s figure dissolved into the shadows in the corner of the room and disappeared without a trace after a few breaths.
This was Mianxian’s talent as a freak—concealment, being inextricably linked with the world of shadows.
As long as she didn’t actively reveal herself, she was almost impossible to find.
This ability also applied online, making her completely immune to any form of cyber weapons.
It was precisely because of this that she had been able to bounce around for so long without knowing much about the internet and computers and without being traced offline.
Even Tang Nai had a hard time dealing with her.
Miti ate several packs of chips in the room, watching fan fiction that made her itch with excitement, and she didn’t even notice that there was someone lurking under the bed.
However, this person’s destructive power was pitifully weak, unable to even break through Miti’s fire curtain, and could only be a little stubborn verbally.
The flames on Miti gradually subsided, and her eyes were full of helplessness.
Such a troublesome ability, probably even a B-class wouldn’t be able to deal with her.
Su Mu was more heartbroken about her computer.
She immediately reached out to touch the casing of the main unit, but the next moment, she winced and pulled her hand back.
So hot!
To avoid burning Su Mu, who was beside her, into ashes, Miti had been careful to protect her with magic, but direct contact couldn’t block the heat.
Now the main unit was so hot that it could almost fry eggs.
She didn’t know if it was still in time to get it repaired.
Her mood was extremely bad.
The various things on the bed were already riddled with holes, the wallpaper was covered with charred marks from the raging fire, and there was still a small flame at the bottom of the curtain, which Su Mu quickly stepped forward and extinguished.
It was almost impossible to live here now, and how to deal with the landlord was still a problem.
Su Mu looked at the dilapidated cabin and couldn’t help but feel a bit choked up.
Although she hadn’t lived here for long, she was still reluctant to leave.
The most important thing was that every night from now on would have to be spent under Tang Nai.
“I’m sorry it got burned like this…”
Miti rubbed her fingers together guiltily.
She hadn’t expected that a freak would be lurking.
Su Mu glanced at Miti, not really blaming her in her heart.
If it weren’t for her, she would probably have been taken away by the underworld forces.
It’s just a pity about my monitor…
That damn stupid cat, just you wait!
Fortunately, Lando was working today.
If it had been her here—
Just as she was thinking, bang, the bedroom door was violently pushed open.
Standing in the middle of the door frame was a petite and upright blue-haired girl in an exquisite white military uniform.
Her gaze was extremely sharp, and there seemed to be a hint of anticipation within it.
As soon as she entered, she began to search for the almost completely dissipated freak’s aura.
It was Lando after her transformation.
She had made an excuse to rush over as soon as she sensed the freak’s presence.
The attire she wore was, to be precise, similar to a military ceremonial uniform.
The overall style was extremely fitting for her, exuding a brisk and spirited air, and adding a few more points of composure and restraint compared to her usual self.
The white cape had yet to settle from the wind of her sprint, and the golden-buckled white belt accentuated her slender waist.
The fabric lay flat and close to her body, almost wrinkle-free, giving a neat and powerful impression.
The hem was slightly above the thigh, and the distance between it and the knee-high boots was only the length of a forearm, perfectly showcasing the girl’s graceful leg curves and elastic, fair skin.
A military knife, gleaming with a cold light, was held in the white glove, pointing diagonally towards the ground, exuding a sharp and intimidating aura.
“Where’s the freak?”
Lando, puzzled by her fruitless search, looked at Miti, who subtly shifted her body to block the view of the rather miserable-looking Lao Da and Cola, who had been steamed in the fire.
“He just ran away.”
“Damn it, just a little bit more!” Su Mu let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, just a little bit more.
