She placed the menu on the table.
Qiu Bai seemed to have found a lifeline and quickly said, "Yes, let's order some coffee first."
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze fell on the blue-haired girl, only to find that this girl was none other than Kirishima Touka!
The female protagonist of Tokyo Ghoul...
At this moment, Kirishima Touka unconsciously looked at Akihaku and secretly swallowed her saliva.
This human... looks delicious...
She exuded an extremely delicious... fragrance.
So tempting...
Thoughts flooded her mind.
However, having lived among humans for so many years, Touka is not so easily swayed by this temptation.
Shiranui naturally noticed Touka staring intently at Akihachi and swallowing, and she also glanced at her specifically.
Dong Xiang's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of confusion, and she instantly turned her head away.
Shiranui and Sumeragi are frequent visitors here.
As a member of the Yu race, Dong Xiang naturally understood that although they were not specifically targeting the Yu race's "CCG" forces, they absolutely could not provoke them.
"Xiao Qiu is my important younger brother, and I will not allow anyone to have bad thoughts about him."
Shiranui's gaze swept over Touka, Korokka, and even Yoshimura Kōzen, who was making coffee.
And those understated words also signaled the end of the coffee shop's atmosphere.
This café is usually frequented by ghouls, but it stands on the side of harmonious coexistence between humans and ghouls.
"Miss, don't worry too much. No one will have bad intentions towards your brother. If they did... I wouldn't agree to it."
Yoshimura Kōzen uttered a soft voice, raising his head slightly.
Having survived among humans for many years, they possess an even greater resistance to human temptations.
"That's good." Shiranui glanced at the menu casually and said to Touka next to her, "Two lattes and a slice of Black Forest cake, please."
"Okay." Dong Xiang nodded hurriedly, and the fine sweat on her forehead showed that she was already a little flustered.
Upon hearing the order, she quickly turned around to start making coffee.
"Shiranui, there are still some humans here... Isn't it a bit inappropriate to make such a big fuss?"
Royal Rikka was completely bewildered by Shiranui's doting brotherly nature.
Shiranui, however, smiled faintly, a hint of danger in her eyes, and spoke to Sumeragi:
"The people I just mentioned included you... Little Emperor."
Royal Six Flowers was immediately startled by Shiranui's smile, and cold sweat broke out on her back. As expected of the strongest anti-demon ninja, her aura was simply outrageous.
If an ordinary person said such a thing, there might be a lot of discussion around them, but when Shiranui said it...
There was absolutely no sound of discussion around them; instead, it was eerily quiet.
Is this what they call the aura of a strong person?
Chapter 102 Another World
"Uh, really? Shiranui."
Huang Liuhua silently wiped away a cold sweat. It seemed that trying to seduce this handsome boy would be quite difficult.
After all, the presence of this powerful anti-demon ninja was truly terrifying.
"Ahaha, Shiranui-neechan, don't worry~ There aren't that many ordinary people who have bad thoughts about me."
Qiu Bai unconsciously placed his hand on Shiranui's thigh and gently pinched it, clearly reminding Shiranui not to cause too much trouble.
However, since Shiranui dared to do this, it must be because she was not afraid of these ghouls at all.
But... does Shiranui know there's an SSS-rank species here?
Akihachi glanced warily at Yoshimura Kozen, thankfully this guy wasn't the kind of ghoul who was very aggressive.
"Xiao Qiu, don't be too carefree. This will become your weakness. Besides... I have a responsibility to protect you."
Shiranui placed her hand over Qiu Bai's hand and held it tightly, her crimson eyes filled with utmost seriousness.
"I know."
As Qiu Bai felt his hand being enveloped by Shiranui, an immense sense of security welled up within him.
The warmth that Shiranui gave him was like the love of an old mother, making him feel at ease.
"Alright, alright, you two siblings are a real headache to look at. I've really seen it for myself today. Brother-obsessed people are terrifying."
As she spoke, Sumeragi took out a blue USB drive and handed it to Shiranui, saying:
"Here's the information you need. Take it."
Qiu Bai looked at the USB drive with curiosity, wondering what was inside.
However, we can speculate a little --
Shiranui sought information from Sumeragi Rokka, who is the principal of Seika University, a university with a unique race from another world.
—From this, we can boldly speculate that it is very likely data from another world.
"it is good."
Shiranui nodded slightly, raised her hand to take the USB drive, and a smile appeared on her lips.
Soon, Touka picked up the plate and placed the latte and Black Forest cake they had ordered in front of the three of them.
Shiranui picked up the coffee and quickly swallowed it with a "glug glug" sound.
In the blink of an eye, the coffee in the cup was finished.
Immediately, she looked at Qiu Bai beside her and said, "Xiao Qiu, take your cake, let's go."
"Hey! They're leaving already?" Huang Liuhua suddenly became anxious, then looked at Shiranui and said, "Didn't you say you'd let me chat with Xiao Qiu?"
Shiranui frowned slightly, her crimson eyes looking somewhat strange. She paused her movement as she was about to get up and remained seated.
"What do you want to discuss? Discuss it right here in front of me."
She spoke frankly, after all, she was not comfortable with Qiu Bai communicating with Huang Liuhua alone.
Although Huang Liuhua was her friend
But precisely because of this, Shiranui could tell at a glance that she seemed to have different feelings for Qiubai.
Shiranui was worried about leaving Aki alone with her.
Huang Liuhua didn't pay any attention, but looked at Qiu Bai and said with interest, "Hey, little Qiu, how about you come to our school for employment?"
"Become our teacher, the work is easy, and I'll offer you a salary of 100 million yen!"
Upon hearing this, Shiranui immediately sensed something was wrong.
"I reject!"
Without saying a word, she directly refused on Qiu Bai's behalf, then took Qiu Bai's hand and turned to leave.
Just as Qiu Bai was about to eat the cake in front of him, he was pulled away by Shiranui with a "whoosh," a very quick action.
"Wait, Shiranui, my cake!"
"Little Qiu, I'll buy you something else next time..."
Ring ring--
The doorbell rang as the door was shaken, and Qiu Bai was taken out by Shiranui.
"...Tch, Shiranui's way too cautious..."
Huang Liuhua pursed her lips, but in her mind, she was recalling Qiu Bai's face, including his physique.
It would be amazing to become Sheng Hua's "X Instructor"!
What a pity~ what a pity~
However, there's plenty of time... Little Qiu, my little brother~
Huang Liuhua licked the corner of her mouth and smiled.
But her gaze fell on the coffee in front of her and the cake she had just taken a bite of, and she covered her forehead.
They escaped pretty quickly... without even paying.
Never mind, consider it a favor you owe me.
roadside.
Shiranui pulled Qiubai along for a while before slowing down and feeling a little more at ease.
"Finally, they're far away. I knew that guy was up to no good!"
She pursed her lips, still holding Qiu Bai's hand tightly. It was easy to see that she was genuinely worried that Qiu Bai would be taken away from her.
For Shiranui, Akihaku is someone she has watched grow up since she was a child, so he is naturally very important to her.
"Shiranui, that coffee shop...something's off, isn't it?"
Qiu Bai tentatively asked Shiranui a question, wanting to know if Shiranui was aware of the existence of ghouls.
Upon hearing this, Shiranui looked at Qiu Bai beside her, a smile unconsciously appearing on her lips, and said:
"Oh? You actually noticed...? I'd like to hear what you think is wrong?"
Qiu Bai was somewhat surprised, not expecting Shiranui to admit it so readily and even ask him questions in return.
He pondered for a moment, then raised his hand to touch his chin, beginning to consider what reason to use.
"The people inside have a different aura than ordinary humans, and they smell of blood."
Qiu Bai said it all in a serious tone, but in reality, it was all made up.
Shiranui was stunned, surprised that you had this ability.
She seemed to truly believe it.
"Wow~ I never expected Xiao Qiu to be so amazing, it really surprises me~"
A smile spread across her face; Qiu Bai's strength was truly surprising and delightful to her.
If one is strong enough, even if they join the Demon Ninja... knowing the situation in this world, they might still have the ability to cope.
I no longer need to hide Qiu Bai away and protect him.
If that's the case, Xuefeng and he could meet with Qiubai frequently, provided Qiubai has sufficient strength.
"Haha...really?"
Qiu Bai's hand was still being held tightly by Shiranui. Feeling Shiranui's hand gripping him tightly, he had a bad feeling.
"Oh, right, here you go."
Shiranui suddenly took out the USB drive she had just used and handed it to Qiu Bai, continuing, "It contains information about another world. You can look at it... In the past, you had no power; you were just an ordinary person. Some things are hard to say."
"But now, I can feel... Xiao Qiu, you've changed a lot, and I have a lot to tell you. Maybe you can share some of my troubles in the future."
She didn't delve into where Qiu Bai's strength came from, but felt very gratified and happy that Qiu Bai had become stronger.
After all, everyone has their own secrets, and it doesn't matter where they come from, as long as Qiu Bai himself is alright.
Chapter 103 Hotel
"Shiranui"
As Qiu Bai looked into Shiranui's dark eyes, a strange feeling welled up in his heart.
A slight smile played on his lips as he said to Shiranui beside him, "Thank you...Shiranui-neechan."
Qiu Bai understood that Shiranui was worried that something might happen to her, which was why she hadn't said many things.
"It's nothing, we're family. Besides, if you really want to thank someone, you should do something here."
Shiranui's tone was somewhat meaningful, and she placed her hand on Qiu Bai's waist and pinched it slightly.
Qiu Bai felt the slight pressure and was somewhat intrigued.
