Esper X Family – Chapter 31 – Don’t Let Her Taste Too Much Sweetness!

Ye Yao observed from the balcony for more than ten seconds.

She didn’t witness any earth-shattering scenes, but she did clearly see a few pairs of underwear floating down to the ground below.

“Hmm, strange.”

Ye Yao and Luo Jianhua returned from the balcony to the room.

“There should’ve been a suspicious Esper trying to approach just now.”

“Mr. Lou Wei must have intervened, right?” Luo Jianhua’s expression was somewhat grave.

“Definitely. I’ve personally experienced it. This kind of commotion is all too familiar to me,” Ye Yao muttered.

“You’ve personally experienced it!?”

Luo Jianhua stared at Ye Yao in horror, unable to imagine how she could say such a thing.

Ye Yao didn’t want to elaborate. She lightly pressed her fist to her lips and coughed, choosing to brush it off.

“ Ahem~ Adults’ matters aren’t for children to pry into.”

Besides, it was an embarrassing incident.

There was no way she would talk about it openly.

“You’re a child too…”

“It’s not the same. You’ll understand when you’re my age.”

“Is our age gap that big?”

“Don’t dwell on the details.”

Ye Yao smiled and patted the loli’s head, putting on an adult’s demeanor.

However, her petite and slender figure couldn’t support even a hint of authority or maturity.

Luo Jianhua nodded thoughtfully.

Perhaps… geniuses all have some bad habits.

Like Ye Yao’s tendency to act like an adult.

“Hmph~ I’m too lazy to explain. Let’s get back to the topic. I want to figure out what just happened.”

Ye Yao felt that this might be related to her.

And since it was related to her, she absolutely couldn’t ignore it.

Luo Jianhua seemed to recall something, and a trace of worry appeared between her brows.

“Sister, you might’ve been targeted.”

“There have always been moles from hostile forces hidden within the Countermeasures Bureau.”

“This matter must’ve been leaked by a mole.”

“Those bad guys will try every means to get you and use your power for evil.”

Ye Yao wasn’t the least bit panicked. Instead, she felt inexplicably proud, straightening her waist.

“So I’m in such high demand now~ That’s actually kind of flattering.”

Who would’ve thought that the social outcast everyone despised in her past life would suddenly become a hot commodity?

It was like a Yu-Gi-Oh! player applying for an interview.

Upon realizing that they’re a card game enthusiast, the HR manager exclaims, “Oh, a noble Yu-Gi-Oh! player!” and immediately raises their salary and benefits.

It’s the delusion of a card game enthusiast before death.

Fortunately, this wasn’t Ye Yao’s delusion.

“Um, Sister… this isn’t something to be happy about. You could be kidnapped by bad guys.”

Luo Jianhua felt that Ye Yao was being overly optimistic.

If it were her, she would probably be too worried to eat.

“What’s there to fear? They’ll have to get past my stat monster foster father before they can even think about kidnapping me.”

Ye Yao wasn’t fazed at all.

What could be more reassuring than the system-certified strongest of the current era?

Even the personal bodyguard of campus beauties couldn’t compare.

“Ahaha… If Mr. Lou Wei knew how much you trusted him, he might even be a little happy…”

Luo Jianhua could only admire Ye Yao’s mindset.

“Hmm~ I wonder if Lou Wei killed that suspicious person. If not, maybe I could try to make contact and see.” Ye Yao mumbled.

She was curious about what kind of treatment she would receive if she went over there.

“Sister…”

Luo Jianhua’s mouth twitched slightly upon hearing this.

She couldn’t imagine how the people at the headquarters would react if they heard Ye Yao’s statement.

They would probably be sweating buckets.

The idea of a world-destroying power voluntarily defecting was terrifying.

“Sister, you’re joking, right?”

“Of course! Unless they can offer me a better slacking-off environment than what I have now, I won’t even glance their way.” Ye Yao patted her chest in assurance.

At least, her main body wouldn’t.

But her fission body could roam freely.

“ Phew~ ” Luo Jianhua exhaled in relief.

Given how those guys were constantly on the run in society, offering a better slacking-off environment was out of the question.

They would probably be eliminated the moment they showed their faces.

Not long after.

Xiao Jing knocked on the door with news.

“Ye Yao, your friend is here.”

In the blink of an eye.

Another little loli appeared in Ye Yao’s room.

“Should we continue watching magical girls today?” Mo Qiuli cautiously sought a response.

“Watch, of course! But I want to ask something first.”

Ye Yao approached Mo Qiuli.

“Did you notice anything strange when you came to the neighborhood?”

Mo Qiuli thought for a moment and nodded. “There was a strong gust of wind earlier. When I passed by the park, I saw some serious-looking adults searching for something.”

“Oh, they were probably looking for the remains.”

Ye Yao had vaguely guessed the outcome.

After Lou Wei intervened, the Countermeasures Bureau Espers were still lingering in the area where the suspicious person had appeared.

There were only two possibilities.

Either they were looking for the remains, or the other party had dodged the attack and gone into hiding.

If it was the latter, Ye Yao would have to admit that they had some skill.

“What remains?”

Mo Qiuli and Luo Jianhua looked curious.

Normally, satisfying the lolis’ curiosity would be the natural progression.

But Ye Yao smiled and gently patted both of their heads.

“Be good~ It’s better to not know.”

Although Luo Jianhua was a genius Esper who would eventually join the frontlines.

And Mo Qiuli was a magical girl who often wandered the city, had witnessed the ups and downs of life and had even seen Ye Yao kill someone.

In Ye Yao’s eyes, they were still lovable little lolis.

It was better to explain less of the abstractly hellish things to them.

“Oh! Right, Little Luo, tell Mo Qiuli that you’re the same.”

Luo Jianhua shot a questioning look.

“Should I tell her everything?”

“No, just say you’re the same.”

“Got it.”

Mo Qiuli was filled with question marks, suddenly feeling as if she had been left out.

What’s going on?

Am I being isolated?

Rеаԁ оո ΚαtRеαԁіոɡСafe

No way!

She had just found two friends who liked watching Magical Girl anime.

Now, she was going back to those bitter days of entertaining herself alone.

Fortunately, Luo Jianhua didn’t dawdle.

Before Mo Qiuli could imagine her dark future as a solitary loli, Luo Jianhua spoke up.

“Mo Qiuli, I’m actually an Esper too.”

With that.

Luo Jianhua casually activated【Eyes Obscured by a Single Leaf】, allowing Mo Qiuli to see what she wanted to see most.

The next second.

Mo Qiuli’s eyes lit up. “So you’re a magical girl too!”

“Pfft~ I’m not even surprised.”

Ye Yao chuckled, guessing what Mo Qiuli had seen.

Just as she thought.

Mo Qiuli saw Luo Jianhua dressed in magical girl attire.

Even Ye Yao wasn’t spared.

“Is this heaven? Everyone’s become a magical girl.”

Mo Qiuli was deeply moved, collapsing onto the bed with her hands folded over her chest, looking as if she was about to ascend to heaven.

I can die without regrets~

Ye Yao quickly signaled Luo Jianhua to stop.

“Don’t let her taste too much sweetness, or she might awaken strange traits and turn into a psycho loli. We’ll be in danger then.”

Luo Jianhua: “???”
