I'm In A Shuraba Every Time I Open My Eyes: Chapter 9

ARC 1: FIRST BATTLEFIELD (9)

Bai Xiyue was a little sad when she heard his words. The little milk dog seems to have waited for her since yesterday. It was now past ten in the morning.

In fact, this was a bit too cruel to such a young person, but she still had to go through with it.

She didn't establish a lofty impression for herself. When she was having fun last night, she didn't spare a thought for Chen Qingzhu.

For her, they were just part of the mission task. Their body temperature was real, but the original owner's memories constantly reminded her of her circumstances.

It was okay to act on the spot. She could change personalities as well as make plans to break up. Bai Xiyue was not an impatient person. She advocated gradual progression.

Little milk dog, last night was a foreshadowing.

Although he will be very sad, he should also be able to think about what happened.

"Wait there, I'll come find you."

Bai Xiyue didn't forget to change her clothes—she can't make a mistake on this—and rushed to the address given to Chen Qingzhu.

Her footsteps paused in front of the porridge shop entrance before stepping inside.

Since she's going to talk about breaking up, what kind of porridge should she bring?

Bai Xiyue arrived at the door of her house and saw the big boy sitting on the stone steps.

"You're here."

Chen Qingzhu's eyes were bloodshot. The skin under his eyes looked like bruising and his clothes were stained gray. All in all, he was haggard.

This listless appearance was very different from the upright and youthful boy of yesterday.

After nodding, Bai Xiyue took out the key and opened the door all the way for him.

"Come in and have a seat. We'll talk."

"I'm not going in."

He pursed his lips and looked at Bai Xiyue with a stubborn appearance.

"I don't want to go in."

Chen Qingzhu looked at her. There was a pleading in his eyes.

He knew what she wanted to talk about, but he didn't want to end it like this.

She's as beautiful and alluring as she's ever been. Even in this situation, she was calm and collected, a complete contrast to the panic he currently felt, as if he was being put on trial.

"Come in."

Bai Xiyue said resolutely.

This malicious deception was already a very bad thing. Telling lie after lie will eventually get out of hand.

If the number of people can be reduced from four to three, then she will be much better off.

Chen Qingzhu ended up walking inside and closed the door.

"I—"

Before Bai Xiyue said a word, she was interrupted.

"Have you had breakfast?"

Her voice paused. She looked at the person's whose eyes had already begun to redden but was pretending that everything was still fine.

"Qingzhu, let's break up."

She said it simply without dragging it out.

He was silent for a while.

"If you've already had breakfast, we can go have lunch together."

He smiled as he looked at her. A teardrop had fallen down his cheek, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Chen Qingzhu. I said, let's break up."

Bai Xiyue cruelly stuck a second knife, making him unable to maintain his smile.

"Do you like someone else?"

His voice was soft, but it was very clear in the quiet environment.

"No, I just don't think we're suitable anymore."

She denied it, but she was also telling the truth. As far as she was concerned, she didn't like anyone.

"Not suitable? Are you telling me we're not suitable right now? Who was the one that said she only liked me?!"

Chen Qingzhu suddenly became agitated. He felt like his heart was suffocating from the pain.

The original owner is the one who said that.

Yueyue is innocent.

She didn't say a word. It wasn't something she could respond to.

He looked at her unchanging face and suddenly calmed down.

"I don't want to talk about this yet. I haven't eaten a thing since last night. I'll go peel an apple."

Chen Qingzhu's expression condensed. He walked straight into the kitchen.

Bai Xiyue didn't expect to be able to break up right away. Normal people tended to make a lot of noise, let alone abnormal ones.

She watched the kitchen area with vigilance, fearing Chen Qingzhu would suddenly give her a karate chop then lock her up. After all, that person in the real world did this and one must learn from past experiences.

Chen Qingzhu peeled the apple bit by bit, taking care to make it seamless.

Whenever something upset him, he would peel one.

As his hand moved, his mind kept replaying her breakup words over and over again. They couldn't help but tremble.

The peel broke and fell right on the edge of the bin. The portion that remained on the fruit seemed to be mocking his failure.

Chen Qingzhu threw the apple into the trash can with a blank expression and clenched the knife in his hand.

Why can't she be with him forever?

She clearly said she loved him.

She said this more than once. He remembers every single instance and carefully collected them in his heart.

It felt so sweet whenever he thought about them, but now the sweetness turned acrid and sharp. They were viciously stabbing at his heart.

Liar, liar, liar, liar!

She's lying to him.

Chen Qingzhu stood up and curved the corner of his mouth.

If she could just be obedient, she can stay in his arms forever.

Being controlled by him, never separating from him.

Never leaving each other.

The smile on his face was treacherous. Suddenly, his eyes shone brightly, as if he just thought of a wonderful idea.

He walked up to Bai Xiyue and picked up the apple on the coffee table.

"I learned how to carve a rabbit from an apple. I might not have a chance to show you after we break up so, can you watch it this once?"

Bai Xiyue nodded, but she was a bit surprised on the inside.

That's it? He just agreed?

Sure enough, he was still a child, a good and honest one!

Bai Xiyue was moved to tears in her heart. He was simply a little angel.

After half a minute, she regretted her thoughts.

What angel? This was a fucking demon!

The fruit knife that had carved the apple moments ago was now lodged in her heart.

The excruciating pain that radiated from it made Bai Xiyue feel unwell all over. Her eyes were wide open. She never expected this person to stab her with the knife.

It hurts, it really hurts.

Chen Qingzhu stared at his hands then stared at Bai Xiyue's chest.

The dazzling blood poured out and stained a large part of her clothes.

He looked at her incredulous gaze. They were still open from the shock.

"This way, you won't leave me."

Chen Qingzhu murmured as he caressed Bai Xiyue's face in comfort.

Before Bai Xiyue could say "You [BEEP—]", she suddenly felt dizzy.

When she could see again, she found herself carrying her handbag on the way up her house's front steps.

[System]: Mission failed. The system automatically saves in real-time. Host does not have to worry about losing progress.

[Bai Xiyue]: I died without closing my eyes¹.

She stood in the same place and used socialist curses to alleviate the resentment in her heart.

The feeling of being stabbed was still there. Bai Xiyue touched her chest and felt the vivid sensation of her heart beating. She almost broke into tears.

That was her first time facing death. It was extremely unpleasant.

But it also strengthened her opinion that the task must be successful. Failure meant being cut down. She honestly didn't want to load again.

[Bai Xiyue]: System, you piece of garbage!

[System]: ???

[System]: Did I not perform well?

[Bai Xiyue]: Why didn't you warn me about his blackening?!

[System]: A yandere is guaranteed to blacken once you break up with them. Did you still need a warning?

Bai Xiyue wanted to burst into foul socialist curses.

[System]: I am responsible for warning you about shuraba crises, but there will be no prior warnings for these individual instances.

The system's meaning was obvious. If several men were present at the same time, it will announce on the spot. As for anything outside that, it will not make a peep.

[Bai Xiyue]: This task you people issued is a pit.

It was really screwing people over.

She was supposed to break up without triggering a 'brinkmate', but breaking up with a yandere is 100% going to lead to blackening, and blackening means getting stabbed. Isn't this just an endless loop? And one that plays her for a fool.

Not unless, she can beat a yandere?

[System]: I believe Host can do it! Good luck!

This was simply hell-mode difficulty. How is she supposed to clear this?

Sighing, she looked up anxiously at the stairs in front of her.

If she goes up there, she'll see Chen Qingzhu.

Her calves were going soft just from recalling that stabbing feeling.

If possible, she didn't want to face that little milk dog. No, Cheng Qingzhu should have already become a wolf dog.

Being bitten hurt a lot.

Heaven may be forgiven for iniquities, but man shall not live for his sins.

Bai Xiyue, who bore the sin of being a scumbag, stepped forward with a resolution.

After reinforcing her mind, she pretended to rush up the stairs.

"You're back."

Chen Qingzhu's eyes were bloodshot. When he saw her return, he immediately stood up.

Bai Xiyue suddenly realized something. His state looked just like this before he stabbed her when she wasn't paying attention.

"What's wrong?"

His eyes were questioning as he looked at Bai Xiyue staring at him in a daze.

He actually had a lot of things to ask her. Why didn't she answer the phone? Why didn't she come home? Where did she go last night?

He wanted to ask Bai Xiyue's all these questions, but after seeing her bright and beautiful appearance, he didn't want to ask anything.

"Chen Qingzhu, are you out of your mind? Asking me what's wrong? Don't you know how to take good care of yourself at your age? They're upsetting me while you're here making me worry. How do expect to take care of me if you can't even take care of yourself?"

Bai Xiyue decisively changed her policy. Forestall the opponent by a show of strength. She confronted Chen Qingzhu with an angry expression.

Chen Qingzhu was dumbfounded by the scolding. He looked completely at a loss.

"Don't be mad. It's because I'm no good and didn't take care of myself. Don't be angry. What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

He took her hand and gently stroked her arm to calm her down.

Who the hell would it be other than you? You dared to stab this old mother and fucking pissed me off!

Of course, Bai Xiyue couldn't say that. She just opened the door with a cold face and sat down after flinging her handbag onto the couch.

He changed his shoes and approached her cautiously. When he saw that his girlfriend still looked angry, he hooked her pinkie finger and swung it back and forth.

"Don't get angry. It's bad for your health."

Bai Xiyue snorted coldly. So what if you're a yandere? Do you think she's the kind of person who's afraid of getting stabbed?

Ugh—she is.

She died in less than 24 hours. I would have probably died in less than 24 minutes of this insane gig.
