Bleach Stronger by AFK - Chapter 66

There was a momentary silence in the courtyard.
M? Sh? Hitomi and Chou Mizuten were both a bit stunned, not understanding what Hayashi Rikawa meant by asking this question.
However, M? Sh? Hitomi was in the end a veteran player of the ‘quiz game’ and quickly figured out the trap in the question, her eyes immediately lit up and she turned her head to Chou Mizuten with a smile on her face.

“It’s time for you to answer!”

Chou Mizuten opened his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally gritted his teeth and said, “Save my mom!”
“So you don’t want your wife? You’re so heartless, what’s the point of living like you.” M? Sh? Hitomi shook her head, and the cone of blood hovering above her palm slightly moved.
Chou Mizuten was startled and hurriedly said, “Wait, wait, didn’t we agree on three questions? I still have one last chance!”

“..…. so.” M? Sh? Hitomi stroked her chin and turned her head to look at Hayashi Rikawa, her eyes filled with anticipation and curiosity, “Do you have any other fun questions?”
Hayashi Rikawa nodded, Continue to ask: “If the house is on fire, and your mother and your wife are inside, which one do you save first?”
This time, Chou Mizuten had experience, and as soon as Hayashi Rikawa’s words left his mouth, he immediately answered, “Save my wife!”

M? Sh? Hitomi’s eyes widened, “If you don’t even save your mother, who raised you, are you still a human being?”
Hayashi Rikawa nodded along, “Indeed.”
Chou Mizuten was stunned, showing an expression of wanting to cry out tears.
Damn it, what do you guys want me to do? How can I answer this question, it’s a dead end?

“I’m sorry to say that three chances have passed.” M? Sh? Hitomi shrugged his shoulders.
“Wait…”

Chou Mizuten’s face suddenly surfaced in a shocked look, words to half steeply stopped, a bright red cone had been into his neck, blood gushed out, the rest of his words forever blocked in the throat.
Dispersing the cone of blood, M? Sh? Hitomi got up and looked back at Hayashi Rikawa, asking curiously, “Is there a correct answer to this question? Who should be saved first?”
Hayashi Rikawa Glancing at the girl, calmly said: “First put out the fire.”

M? Sh? Hitomi froze for a few seconds, then snorted with laughter.
“Hey, didn’t expect you to be quite interesting. Let’s get to know each other, my name is M? Sh? Hitomi, what’s your name?”

When he met the girl’s bright eyes, Hayashi Rikawa couldn’t help but feel a little weird, she had just hit and injured Sh?ch?, the strength he had shown didn’t even get the girl to recognize him and take the initiative to give her name, but instead, it was the two weird questions he asked on a whim that seemed to have won her favor.
This little girl’s character was really eccentric.

After thinking about it, he still replied, “My name is Kohakumo.”
“Strange name, it’s a fake name, right?” M? Sh? Hitomi muttered, then immediately resumed her smile, “Never mind, that kind of thing doesn’t matter, are you a wild Transcendent?”
Hayashi Rikawa was speechless for a while, what do you mean by wild?

“Then I’ll take that as your tacit admission.” M? Sh? Hitomi smiled wryly, intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Ky? Tsuru’s corpse, and said, “I think you should know that I’m one of Night Song’s people, right? How about it, are you interested in joining Night Song, I see that your strength was quite good. If you want to join, I can recommend you to the team leader.”

Hayashi Rikawa glanced at her in surprise and asked, “Is your Night Song recruiting members so casually?”
“Of course not, you usually have to go through a vetting process, it’s just that if you have a core member’s recommendation, the process will be much faster and you can save a lot of effort.” M? Sh? Hitomi said.
“Forget it then, I don’t want to join any transcendent organizations for the time being.”
“It’s that’s so.”

M? Sh? Hitomi’s small face revealed a regretful look, “Then why don’t you talk to me a few more times about the kind of questions you just asked, so I can save them for next time.”
Hayashi Rikawa was speechless for a while.

“I have no more.”
“Really no more?”
“Really.” Hayashi Rikawa shook his head, not wanting to get entangled with M? Sh? Hitomi again, leaving her behind and turning to Ri Keichou and Ryuu Hokei’s corpses, squatting down and searching carefully.

In fact, as early as when the two men appeared in the arena, the message of convertible currency popped up in the lower right corner of his vision, and similarly, the same message popped up when Sh?ch? came out of the arena.
Obviously, all three of them had meteorites on them.

As expected, Hayashi Rikawa found the meteorite on both of them within a few moments, but the meteorite was a bit different in appearance, it looked like a well-made ring, with complicated patterns engraved on the surface, and the word ‘ten weights’ was engraved on the center ring face, and the whole body was coated with a layer of shiny silver lacquer.
The two rings were identical in appearance, and if it weren’t for the message, even if the ring was placed in front of Hayashi Rikawa, he wouldn’t be able to tell that it was a meteorite.

Later,Hayashi Rikawa found another similar ring on Sh?ch?’s body, except that the text on it had changed to ‘Hundred Weights’, and it was relatively larger in size.
After pondering for a while to no avail, he took the ring and walked over to M? Sh? Hitomi, asking, “Do you know what this is?”

M? Sh? Hitomi glanced at the ring and casually said, “This is called the Heavy Ring, it is the proof of identity for members of the Qianzhong ‘Ten Heavens’ and above, and is given to all cadres. Don’t look at the small size of this thing, but the entire body is carved out of meteorite, and it’s worth quite a bit of money.”

Hayashi Rikawa Suddenly, didn’t expect Sh?ch? and all three of them were Qianzhong’s Cadre.
But after I think about it, these three were Silver Rank Transcendent, Sh?ch? was also Silver Peak. Anyone can single-handedly destroy the Black Spider Gang or Forgotten River Gang. They were powerful. Incomparably, it makes sense to have the identity of Qianzhong Cadre.

Returning to his senses, he absorbed the three heavy rings one by one without moving, the two rings engraved with ‘Ten Heaviness’ each contributed 1 crystal stone to him, while Sh?ch?’s ‘One Hundred Heaviness’ ring contributed a full 3 crystal stones.
“A total of 5 crystals, after deducting the 1 crystal for exchanging the special nourishing and strengthening agent, there’s still a net profit of 4 crystals.” Hayashi Rikawa was elated in his heart, but once he thought that the reinforcement points he had saved up for a long time would be depleted all of a sudden, his elation diminished quite a bit.
“That’s fine, upgrading Kid? and unlocking skills is also to improve your own strength at any rate, not a waste, at worst, just accumulate enhancement points again.”

After consoling himself with a few words, Hayashi Rikawa turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, M? Sh? Hitomi hurriedly called out to him, “You’re leaving, wait let’s exchange contact information first.”
It was hard to meet such an interesting person. It’s a shame not to leave contact information.

Hayashi Rikawa hearing this, but he kept walking, waved his hand without looking back, and disappeared into the darkness.
M? Sh? Hitomi pouted, stood in place for a moment, then condensed bleeding wings behind her, lifted her wings and flew up into the air, also ready to leave.
Just as she flew out of the courtyard, she felt the cell phone in her pocket gently vibrate, and took it out to see that there was a call coming in.

“Hey, Captain.”
