“Roar? Willing to do anything?”
At the office door, hearing the typical “Eroge”(erotic game) type of phrase, Luo Shiyin couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, looking up and down at the pink-haired delinquent girl squatting in front of her.
With fair skin, a round and tender face, and somewhat exaggerated makeup, the delinquent girl’s style didn’t make her look mature at all.
Instead, it highlighted a hint of youthful cuteness.
Further down, her swan-like neck, her top barely more than a pink belly-baring crop top that revealed an impressive chest, making it painfully obvious that her upper body wasn’t really “age-appropriate” for her frame, as it exposed her slim, flat stomach to the air.
Her lower half consisted of incredibly short shorts, covering barely the top of her thighs, and even though she was squatting, her long, ivory legs were still irresistible and shapely.
However, compared to the flashy outfit, her pink sneakers looked quite ordinary.
Yet, it was this contrast of simplicity that added an inexplicable charm to her.
It was like a quiet high school girl reading in the corner of a noisy bar—her charm wasn’t necessarily as high as the others, but she somehow drew more attention.
Honestly, seeing such a cute girl squatting in front of her and saying something so provocative, Luo Shiyin’s mind immediately started imagining thoughts like “knee pillows,” “scalp massages,” and “leg relaxation exercises.”
If that girl wasn’t opposed to such interactions—ones that involved physical contact but weren’t ambiguous—Luo Shiyin thought she might have a chance to move further, but the thought also left her wondering if she’d simply be left to enjoy the view.
Ugh!
As she thought about it, Luo Shiyin’s expression darkened, followed by a wave of dismal regret—she felt that for the foreseeable future, the most she would be able to do would be to enjoy eye candy.
Unaware of the thoughts of the long black-haired loli, the pink-haired delinquent, seeing the lack of rejection, immediately brightened up and said, “Hmm! As long as you’re willing to lend me money, I’ll agree to anything!”
“…I’ll lend you the money, but in exchange, you’ll need to answer some of my questions and help me with a few small tasks.”
Suppressing the feeling of reluctance, Luo Shiyin thought for a moment and didn’t refuse.
Although earlier, the boss, who looked like a villain dressed in an extravagant, saint-like armor, had said they were a genius and would help solve identity problems as long as they could create monsters for “team-building activities,” Luo Shiyin knew nothing about biological research, and wasn’t sure whether she would get the rewards in the end.
More importantly, her transformation from a tall 1.78-meter figure into a short, 1.4-meter-tall black-haired loli would certainly make daily life inconvenient, and since she had only just joined this “evil organization,” she would likely need to ask colleagues for help in the future.
In this case, having a local female resident willing to help would make her life and work much more convenient.
Moreover, even if she didn’t complete the task, with her current monthly salary of fifty thousand, it wouldn’t be too much of a loss if this pink-haired delinquent took the money and then reneged.
After all, spending a thousand yuan to get a glimpse of a future colleague’s true nature was worth it.
“Hmm, no problem. So, are there any other conditions?”
The long black-haired loli asked, but the pink-haired delinquent immediately agreed without thinking.
Then she nervously asked again.
Luo Shiyin was a bit surprised and gave her a glance, but didn’t increase her price.
“No, just this one.”
“Hmm, is that really all?”
“Yeah.”
“Really no other conditions? Like helping with tasks, maybe a thousand yuan?”
“…If you don’t want it, that’s fine.”
Seeing the doubtful expression on her face, Luo Shiyin rolled her eyes.
Upon hearing this, the pink-haired delinquent, as if just realizing something, suddenly opened her arms and pulled the black-haired loli into a hug.
“I want it! You’re really the best, little sister! You’re the best colleague in the world!”
In the moment she was hugged, Luo Shiyin felt an extreme softness, as if her cheek was covered by a cloud frozen into jelly—soft to the point of being shocking, and large enough to be overwhelming.
Then came a faint scent of laundry detergent.
Though it wasn’t as disturbing as the “milk scent” from other novels, it was equally pleasant—so long as it only lasted for three seconds.
But as the hug continued into the fourth second, Luo Shiyin began to feel uncomfortable.
By the fifth second, her breathing became difficult, and she started to panic.
“Let… let go of me!”
Struggling, she pulled out one arm and pushed the girl’s face with all her strength.
However, due to the mismatch in their physical sizes, Luo Shiyin couldn’t push the excited pink-haired delinquent, but at least her actions made the girl realize what was going on.
She released her grip, preventing the black-haired loli from being suffocated by her chest.
“Ah, sorry, little sister, I got too excited just now.”
The pink-haired delinquent, feeling a little embarrassed but also somewhat proud, scratched her head.
“…First request: come on, call me senpai.”
Hearing the request and the pride in her voice, Luo Shiyin’s smooth forehead twitched with two visible veins.
She regained her composure and immediately spoke up.
The pink-haired delinquent’s expression froze.
“You said you’d agree to anything, but here you are.”
Looking at the expression on her face, Luo Shiyin tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and smiled prettily.
“Don’t tell me you’re backing out now? A little (emphasis) sister, still in high school~” [This person… is the type who holds a grudge! She’s super calculating!]
The pink-haired delinquent opened her mouth but didn’t say a word for a long time.
It wasn’t until the long black-haired loli casually shook the cash card pinched between her fingers that the pink-haired girl, as if making a great resolution, spoke up in a voice barely louder than a mosquito: “Senpai…”“Hm, very good, very good~” Seeing the pink-haired delinquent girl’s face quickly turn bright red, as though steam might start coming off her, Luo Shiyin felt a lot better.
Although she wanted to continue teasing her a bit longer, the girl hadn’t meant to act that way, so Luo Shiyin thought she’d…leave it for another time.
Of course, as a senior member of the evil organization, if she had a chance in the future, she would also help this girl.
With that in mind, Luo Shiyin reached out and gently rubbed the girl’s head, which was conveniently within her reach as the girl squatted down.
The sensation was soft, somewhere between a silk quilt and a Samoyed dog’s fur.
“Now, take me to the R&D department,” Luo Shiyin said.
“Hmm, you… you’re going to work in the R&D department, Senior?”
The feeling of Luo Shiyin’s hand patting her head made the pink-haired delinquent girl feel even more embarrassed.
But just as she was about to gather the courage to make a futile resistance, she suddenly heard Luo Shiyin’s words, which made her freeze in place, almost saying the three words she had wanted to say earlier.
Luckily, she noticed the barely-changed but strangely dangerous smile on Luo Shiyin’s face in time, and quickly corrected herself, saying, “Hmm, the boss asked me to check it out. Is there any problem with that department?”
After stepping back to give Luo Shiyin room to stand, Luo Shiyin reined in her emotions and asked curiously, “Is there a problem with the department?”
The pink-haired delinquent girl straightened up, tidied her hair where it had just been patted, and began to lead the way while explaining, “Well, there isn’t really a problem.The director of the R&D department has always been very mysterious and doesn’t let anyone in, so I’m just a little curious… Oh, by the way, my name is Sanya Lian. You can just call me Sanya. What’s your code name, Senior?”
“Code name?”
“Yeah, didn’t the boss tell you? As members of the evil organization, we all get code names. We use them in our daily work, and only the boss and Banzai know our real identities.”
[What kind of nightclub setup is this…]
Hearing this, Luo Shiyin couldn’t help but glance over at the middle-aged man still sitting by the bed, smoking.
She then asked, “Can the code name be anything?”
“Of course~ As long as you don’t mind something weird, Senior.”
For some reason, Sanya Lian now spoke without any hint of awkwardness, as though she had completely abandoned any shyness.
“Hm… I’ll think of something suitable later.”
Meanwhile, in the small, isolated office, the armored man sat with his hands on his head, his eyes glowing weakly red, almost about to fade out.
[Why is that new person asking about my way of doing things? And why was she so surprised by my answer? Could she really be the type to want revenge on society? But I clearly used magic to filter out those types for the poster… and she looks so small, not like that type at all. What should I do, what should I do? If I tell her I’m sorry, we can’t accept you, she’ll probably cry, right? But I don’t want to let someone mess things up… damn it, what should I do?!]
Suddenly, the huge suit of armor shook as if connected to something terrifying.
Then, the person inside seemed to accidentally bump into something and let out a cute, pained yelp, completely different from the previous stern, authoritative voice.
On the other side, Luo Shiyin, completely unaware that her previous actions had driven the evil organization’s boss into a crazy train of thought, followed Sanya Lian into a corner of the hall.
There, she noticed a door embedded in the wall that was hard to see unless closely inspected.
After pressing a button to open the door, the so-called “exploration room” immediately lit up with light.
However, what she saw in the room made her widen her eyes in surprise.
The pink-haired delinquent beside her had an even more stunned expression, her eyes becoming unfocused as if she had seen something that made her question life itself.
