Honkai: You're telling me this difficulty is from Honkai Impact 3?!

Inside the cake shop, it was empty and a little dim.

Shu and Mei had already searched most of the shop, confirming that there were no hidden dangers inside.

Of course, they only checked the first floor of the store.

Shu didn't go to the second floor. Instead, he turned around and moved a cabinet to block the door that led to the second floor.

Anyway, this wasn't a place that they needed to live in for a long time. They would leave after collecting some food here.

But now…

"Those have already expired, you can't eat them." Shu looked at Yun Mengxi and Liu Zhuohua, who were staring at the cakes in the display case, and gave them a blunt reminder.

Of course, the two knew that they couldn't eat those. They were just being greedy and weren't so hungry that they could set aside their pride and eat them.

"Shu." Kiana walked over to Shu's side, and on tiptoe, she leaned in close to Shu's ear, "Should we bring the two of them with us?"

"We can't decide yet." Shu subconsciously wanted to refuse.

However, since the two were still nearby, Shu tried to be a bit subtle.

"Let's observe them a bit more. Didn't they say that there's someone called Brother Yun who's looking for them?" Shu could guess why Kiana wanted the two of them to come with them.

Kiana couldn't stand seeing other people suffer.

The key was that Shu himself didn't want to leave these two alone here. What would be the difference between him and Otto then?

No, right now, even Otto could be considered half a good person! Wouldn't he be worse than Otto then?!

Shu's expression became serious.

Okay, this matter had already touched his bottom line.

"Shu, there's a lot of flour here. The few of us won't be able to carry it all." Bronya, who had gone to the warehouse with Mei, came back.

"Is there any chocolate?" Shu turned his head and asked. Bronya nodded, and handed him a large bar of dark chocolate.

"The expiration date is very long. It hasn't expired," Bronya said. "There's a lot more inside… and it also tastes good."

Shu curiously broke off a small piece and put it in his mouth. A sweet taste gradually spread in his mouth.

It was a standard factory-made chocolate. It was very sweet and didn't have any bitter taste.

In the past, chocolate with this amount of sweetness would have already been in the "too much" category.

But after experiencing the Great Honkai, tasting this sweetness was like rain after a long drought. It made people want to keep savoring it.

Shu was about to break off another piece to put in his mouth when he felt two scorching gazes staring at him from behind.

…He had forgotten that there were two wild, "hungry" people behind him.

"Here, I tried it. It's not poisonous. You can eat it." Shu coughed softly and, with a straight face, handed the chocolate to Yun Mengxi.

Bronya: "…" Are you sure you were testing for poison?

"Thank you…" Yun Mengxi took the chocolate with both hands, and when she heard what Shu said, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Then, she lowered her head and thanked him before huddling together with Liu Zhuohua to share the chocolate.

So, one piece isn't enough, huh? I probably need to give them another piece that's this big.

Shu thought to himself, but why could he still feel a resentful gaze even though the two weren't looking at him anymore?

Shu's nose felt a little itchy, and he reached out to scratch it. But when he realized that he still had a piece of chocolate in his hand, he could only stop.

Looking back, he got his answer. Kiana was behind him, looking at him with a resentful gaze. The way her face was puffed up was like a little white cat that hadn't gotten any food.

"…Here, I specifically saved this for you," Shu carefully handed the piece of chocolate over.

Kiana: "…Do you think I'm an idiot?"

"Haha! Of course not! How could I? Haha!" Shu didn't admit to Kiana's accusation.

"..." Kiana's face became even more puffy. When she looked at the small piece of chocolate that was already melting on Shu's finger, she still didn't take it.

Never mind, it's just that she can't eat it for now! She, Kiana, had said it before! She wasn't someone who liked to hog all the food for herself!

"Mei~" Kiana yelled, running to the warehouse, while pulling Bronya, who had been watching the show, along with her. "Let's go! Let's get ready to move this stuff!"

Shu's outstretched hand froze in the air. He sighed, and put the small piece of chocolate in his mouth.

If they don't want it, that's fine. I didn't want to give it anyway!

Speaking of which, should he also go and help? Even Bronya, a child laborer, had been taken away. Even if he was injured, he shouldn't just be standing there and watching, right?

"Um… Are you going to leave soon?"

"Probably." Shu nodded and sat down on a chair in the shop. "We're just out here looking for supplies."

"Yeah, I know." Yun Mengxi, hugging half of a chocolate bar, also sat down and began nibbling at it.

If Kiana was like a cat, then Yun Mengxi was like a cautious hamster, nibbling on the food bit by bit.

"...How long have you two been wandering around like this?" Looking at the wrinkles on their clothes, and then looking at the new clothes that he had changed into that morning, Shu felt a clear sense of class in this world for the first time.

Facing this question, Yun Mengxi became silent.

"We were originally with Mengxi's elder brother, but a few days ago, a giant white monster suddenly appeared and scattered us," Liu Zhuohua said, swallowing the chocolate and taking over the conversation.

"A white monster?" Shu's heart skipped a beat. He quickly asked, "What did this white monster look like? Do you remember what the monster looked like?"

Who would remember what a monster looks like! Not to mention that they were escaping at the time!

Liu Zhuohua rolled her eyes in her heart, but she still organized her thoughts.

"I only remember that the monster was huge, almost as tall as a building. It had some pink on it. Other than that, I have no impression."

Shu lowered his head, furrowing his brows as he began to ponder.

Huge, with some pink on it… These all matched the appearance characteristics of a Honkai beast, but a Honkai beast that was as tall as a building… that was probably an armored-class or those super-grade Emperor-class or Judgement-class Honkai beasts.

Not considering the Emperor-class and Judgement-class Honkai beasts, then an armored-class Honkai beast…

"Where were you separated?" Shu felt that it was necessary to figure out the range of the Honkai beast's activity. He didn't want to be chased by that lingering thing again.

"Close to the city center," Liu Zhuohua thought for a moment, saying. But she also felt a little strange in her heart.

Did the pale-faced boy in front of her know something? After all, he immediately believed her when she mentioned the monster. She, herself, still thought that that monster was a hallucination caused by too much stress!

The city center?!

Wasn't that where Otto and the others had gone?!
