Strange Cards

Chapter 232 Eating Crabs

Shi Yu looked at the blonde little girl standing in front of her and resisted the urge to hit her. After picking up Shi Yanlan, she pinched Shi Yanlan's face hard.

"You've come at just the right time, girl."

"You always seem to come at the worst possible time; can't you tell the difference between good and bad times?"

Of course, Shi Yu didn't hit her too hard; she just patted Shi Yanlan lightly before tossing her into the back seat of the car.

Qi Nannan and Liu Yu quickly got into the back seat of the car, and soon after, Shi Yu and Bai Yu also got into the car.

"What do you three want to eat tonight? I'll take you there."

"Let's just say we're on the same page about McDonald's and stuff, but eating too much fried food is really bad for you."

Liu Yu touched her chin and then raised her hand.

"Brother Shiyu, I know a good place to eat."

"My mom took me there. She said the crabs there were delicious and that she'd take me there again sometime."

"Alright, we won't wait for Sister Liu An to take you. I'll take you there today."

As Shi Yu spoke, she called out Yan Yun, and after using navigation to reach the location Liu Yu had indicated, the five of them entered the restaurant and booked the largest private room.

The service and private rooms at this level of restaurant are also excellent. Before long, one delicious dish after another was served.

Shi Yu was slowly munching on a steamed crab when she saw Shi Yanlan preparing to swallow it whole. She took the steamed crab that Shi Yanlan had just swallowed, peeled it, and handed it to her.

"You really haven't learned any of my manners; you've picked up all my bad habits."

Bai Yu smiled, peeled a shrimp in her hand, dipped it in the sauce, and put it into Shi Yu's mouth.

"Don't talk about Miaomiao either, you're no better than her."

"Which crab in front of you wasn't bitten in half in one bite before you started peeling it?"

"You haven't set a good example yourself, how dare you criticize Miaomiao?"

"hey-hey."

Shi Yu chuckled twice and then continued to enjoy her dinner.

After dinner, Shi Yu sat in the car for a long time without starting it. Just as Qi Nannan was about to ask why, Shi Yu took off the Shadow Stepping Bell from his body and handed it to Qi Nannan.

"Nannan, keep this bell safe."

"You've all seen the shadows I left on you to protect you; they're controlled by this bell."

"The owner of this ghost artifact is me, so what appears is naturally my shadow. You must remember one thing."

"You are the oldest child here. Xiaoyu and Miaomiao are both a bit simple-minded, so I'm not comfortable leaving the bell in their hands."

"We're all going away for a while, even Sister Guan Yun is coming with us."

"That means only the three of you and your sister-in-law are left at home. This mission involved the entire Southern Base being mobilized."

"Although it might be a small possibility, I've still taken it into account. You must remember what I'm about to say."

"While we're away, the three of you should stay within each other's sight and make sure you can see each other."

"I'll leave the steel claws with my sister-in-law; they're enough to protect her safety."

"If any of the three of you encounter danger, do not hesitate to ring the bell."

"Besides the three shadows on you, the remaining six shadows in other cities will rush towards your direction at top speed."

"Don't be afraid of making a mistake. All six shadows are my clones, and you all know my temper."

"In these kinds of situations, I'm not afraid of making a mistake, I'm afraid of being too late. You know what I mean."

"The three of you are everyone's most valued treasures, so I'm leaving this thing to you."

"We'll leave you with some things to protect yourselves, just in case someone tries to harm you while we're not around."

"What they fear is the Asura, the timely rain, not the hunter."

"With me around, they won't dare to make any rash moves, but if I'm not here, there will definitely be guys who want to mess with you."

"Remember, you must protect yourselves when we're not around."

"Do you understand?"

Qi Nannan nodded, and after searching her body for a while, Bai Yu handed a piece of blood jade and a ring to Liu Yu and Shi Yanlan.

"You two also carry them; the safety of one ghost artifact is not as good as that of three ghost artifacts."

"I am the one who binds these two ghost artifacts, so you can rest assured about their strength."

"The Blood Jade can create a shield, and if it senses someone who intends to kill you, it will automatically protect the wearer if certain conditions are met."

"The ring can control a ghost; I left one in the early stages of Purgatory inside."

"My aura is sealed inside, so you can use it freely without any backlash."

Upon hearing about the demon in the early stages of Purgatory, Shigure took the ring and used the Seven of Spades to apply two layers of seals to completely restrain the demon before handing it over.

"Alright, I've added two more layers of seals, completely sealing off that ghost."

"We're leaving tomorrow morning. Take care of yourselves while we're away."

"You must listen to Aunt Gu, understand?"

The three children were all sullen when they heard that everyone was leaving. After returning home and taking a shower, Shiyu lay on the sofa, drying her hair with a hairdryer while relaxing.

After being able to hide his cat ears and tail, Bai Yu's fear of water was completely cured, and he now enjoys playing in the water the most every day.

After taking a shower with Shi Yanlan, Bai Yu was wearing a pink dinosaur pajama set, while Shi Yanlan was wearing a smaller yellow dinosaur pajama set.

Shi Yanlan was holding a large green dinosaur pajama set, which she handed to Shi Yudao.

"Brother, you should wear it too."

"My sister and I tried them on, and these pajamas are very comfortable."

After Shiyu changed into her pajamas, the three of them turned into dinosaurs and had a fun pillow fight in the room.

After playing until she was tired, Shi Yu lay down on the bed, hugged Shi Yanlan and Bai Yu in her arms, and fell into a deep sleep.

Shi Yanlan's small hands gripped Shi Yu's chest tightly, as if that would prevent Shi Yu from leaving.

The next morning, they both woke up very early.

Bai Yu got up first, but when Shi Yu was about to get up, Bai Yu pushed Shi Yu down and pointed to Shi Yanlan, who was sleeping soundly.

Shi Yu nodded, then used the black hole to replace her hand with a long cylindrical pillow for Shi Yanlan to use as a pillow. After that, the two packed up their equipment and tiptoed out.

Meanwhile, on the bay window of the master bedroom, Shi Yanlan, who had already woken up, hugged the long cylindrical pillow and looked at Shi Yu and Bai Yu's figures with tears in her eyes.

Perhaps it was the first time the two of them left Shi Yanlan, or perhaps Shi Yanlan couldn't bear to part with them.

But this was the first time Shi Yanlan had shed tears since becoming human.

The teardrops were crystal clear, like diamonds.
