Chapter 623: Chapter 362: City Life of the Little Nian Beast and Lin Xingshi

But when he turned back, he found Lin Xingshi walking far away, not standing with him at all.

"Why are you standing so far away?" Little Nian Beast asked, blinking his eyes.

"You walk your own way," Lin Xingshi mouthed without sound, wrinkling her nose at him.

Little Nian Beast nodded, not daring to object, and silently walked ahead of Lin Xingshi.

Lin Xingshi held clean clothes and quietly watched his back.

She didn’t want others to look at them with strange eyes, like this morning, as if she, a little beggar, had abducted a rich kid.

But... after changing into clean and beautiful clothes, she could walk openly with Little Nian Beast. Thinking of this, Lin Xingshi rubbed the tip of her dirty nose and gently curved her lips.

Just like that, one in front and one behind, they walked aimlessly for a while and arrived in front of an old apartment building.

The door of the apartment building was locked, and a note was pasted on the door saying, "The owner is not at home. If you need anything, please contact this number 145xxxxxxx."

"This is the place."

Lin Xingshi muttered to herself, looking around with her bright and lively black eyes glancing left and right.

Then she pulled Little Nian Beast’s hand and walked into the nearby alley, going around to the back of the apartment building.

Behind the building was a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Through the window, she looked inside and saw a reasonably clean kitchen with a refrigerator. The cupboards were full of food and spices, and there were cans. A standing fan stood lonely in the corner with dust covering its blades.

Lin Xingshi reached out and pushed the window, finding it locked and only openable from the inside.

So, she turned and looked at Little Nian Beast, "Little Nian, we have two ways now."

"What ways?" Little Nian Beast asked.

"One way is we directly smash this window and sneak in, but it’s easy to be discovered that way," Lin Xingshi said softly. "If the nearby residents see the broken window, they might call the police."

"What’s the second way?"

"The second way is... you use your space series superpower to unlock the window from the inside, then we can climb in," Lin Xingshi said, her eyes slightly brightening. She also wanted to see Little Nian Beast use his space series superpower again.

"Then let’s smash it! I’ve never smashed a window before," Little Nian Beast said without hesitation, his eyes also slightly brightening.

"Didn’t you hear what I said?" Lin Xingshi was stunned, "It’s easy to be discovered that way."

"Oh..."

Little Nian Beast pouted, hanging his head down in disappointment. Then he raised his right arm, extending his right hand into a dark space crack.

At this time, a circular space crack also appeared in the kitchen. His right hand went through the crack and appeared inside the kitchen, touching the window.

Lin Xingshi was dumbfounded as she watched, her expression particularly focused.

Like a magician, Little Nian Beast diligently stretched out his hand and, with a snap, unlocked the latch of the floor-to-ceiling window. He then withdrew his hand from the space crack and pulled the window up.

When he turned back, he found Lin Xingshi raising her eyebrows, looking at him curiously and in surprise.

"What’s up?" Little Nian Beast asked.

"Just thinking you’re amazing..." Lin Xingshi shook her head, "It’s the first time I’ve met someone my age so capable."

"Is Little Nian amazing?"

"Yeah, other boys are all weak in front of me, making me feel more like a boy than they do."

"That’s good, Little Nian can protect you."

"No, I took you away, so I have to protect you," Lin Xingshi said seriously.

"No, boys should protect girls."

Lin Xingshi was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter. She snorted and said:

"I actually think you seem more like a girl, especially when you’re sleeping."

After speaking, she hugged the clean dress and climbed into the floor-to-ceiling window without looking back, entering the kitchen first. Then she turned around and motioned Little Nian Beast to come in quickly, fearing being discovered by others would get them in big trouble!

Little Nian Beast climbed into the kitchen like a small lion hunting in the forest, using both hands and feet. He then turned back and carefully closed the floor-to-ceiling window.

Lin Xingshi pulled up the curtains. Then, under the sporadic moonlight, she pressed the button on the circuit board with a snap, and the kitchen was instantly illuminated by warm yellow light.

At this moment, it was as if both their bodies relaxed, like robbers who had just stolen a world-class treasure. They plopped down to the ground, leaning against the cabinet in a daze.

After a long time, they turned their heads to gaze at each other, bewildered.

"Will we be okay?" Little Nian Beast asked softly.

"We will be fine," Lin Xingshi snorted, "We will live here from now on. It looks like there is a lot to eat."

"What if we run out?"

"Then... then we’ll go to the supermarket to get some."

"Didn’t you say we can’t steal?"

Lin Xingshi was taken aback, then she said earnestly, "You’re a superpower user, and I’m an exorcist. We can become useful to the country someday, and then we won’t owe them anything."

"But... Little Nian can’t become a useful person." Little Nian Beast tilted his head.

Lin Xingshi was silent for a moment, "What a coincidence, I don’t want to become a useful person either... If only I were just an ordinary girl, I could wear little dresses, grow long hair, have a girl’s name, not practice boxing every day, not be covered in bruises with nobody to care for me."
