Early morning, in an alleyway piled with clutter, a youth clad in hospital garb lay quietly on the ground.
This poor child had just experienced the most soul-stirring great escape of his life—he had succeeded, finally obtaining the freedom he so yearned for.
But, covered in wounds, he only had time to breathe a few gulps of free air before passing away, bidding farewell to this world.
At that moment, a soul from the outside world invaded this body, causing it to glow with vitality once more.
The youth woke up, sizing up his surroundings through bleary eyes, but he was no longer that same person.
“Where am I…?”
Liu Kai’s heart was filled with continuous doubt.
He clearly remembered that he hadn’t drunk much last night, so how could he remember nothing at all?
Moreover, what kind of place had he been dumped in?
He had absolutely no impression of it.
Though his head was full of question marks, his instincts as a corporate drone allowed him to calm down and begin thinking about the daily problem of making a living.
(It’s morning, I have to go to work, otherwise I’ll be late again.)
Thinking this, Liu Kai tried to stand up, but his feet couldn’t exert any strength at all.
In the process of struggling to get up, he also caught sight of the hospital garb on his body and began to ponder exactly what was going on.
His head was groggy and his body wouldn’t obey him; combined with the hospital garb, the most reasonable explanation was: he had fallen seriously ill but couldn’t afford the hospitalization fees, so he was thrown out.
No, no, no, that’s too far-fetched.
The doctor-patient relationship nowadays shouldn’t have reached such a tense state, right?
Besides, he had absolutely no memory of being hospitalized for an illness.
The only thing his brain remembered was playing Zenless Zone Zero all through the night; other than that, there should be nothing else.
Just as Liu Kai was repeatedly checking his accounts with himself, a young girl quietly walked into the alley; this was her “treasure hunting ground.”
“Eh, why is there a person here?”
The girl finally saw Liu Kai and spoke softly to herself.
Looking toward the sound, Liu Kai also saw the person clearly.
She had long messy pink hair tied into two lively twin tails with black ribbons, adorned with a yellow and green hair clip, and light green eyes that sparkled with a mix of curiosity and cunning.
A small beauty mark sat teasingly under her left eye, and another one was visible on the soft swell of her left breast.
She appeared to be in her early twenties, standing at about 165 cm tall with a highly curvy, voluptuous figure that she loved to show off.
Her pale white skin glowed softly, and her body was incredibly seductive — especially those proud, massive double peaks that strained against her tight white T-shirt, easily G-cup or even larger H-cup in size, jiggling with every small movement like soft, heavy water balloons filled to bursting.
Her ultra-short black high-waisted hot pants hugged her wide hips and plump ass cheeks tightly, accentuating her thick, juicy thighs and the enticing camel toe outline between her legs.
She wore black boots with fur collars, and a black asymmetrical jacket hung loosely over her shoulders.
The overall look was bold, revealing, and irresistibly slutty, radiating the confident charm of Nicole Demara from Zenless Zone Zero.
“Little guy, why are you here?” the girl took the initiative to ask.
Liu Kai found it funny; he was a thirty-something-year-old man, in the same generation as her father and mother, yet he was being called “little guy”?
But when Liu Kai actually spoke to answer, he gave himself a fright.
“I…”
How did my voice become like this?
It…
it sounds like a child’s?
Seeing that Liu Kai’s voice was so weak, the girl was no longer on guard.
Dropping the box in her hand, she walked over quickly, wanting to check on Liu Kai’s condition.
“Are you alright?
Are you hurt anywhere?” The girl’s voice was full of concern, making Liu Kai feel at ease.
At this moment, Liu Kai noticed the beauty mark on the girl’s face, and the sense of familiarity in his mind finally connected all the dots.
Just now he was too busy looking at her chest and actually didn’t recognize this outfit.
Isn’t this the character Nicole from Zenless Zone Zero?
Is this Cosplay?
The level of completion is really high.
Especially that chest—without some real “goods,” one couldn’t pull that off.
Those enormous, heavy breasts looked so full and soft, the deep cleavage between them deep enough to lose a hand in, with faint outlines of her pink areolas pressing against the thin fabric.
Seeing Liu Kai staring at her in a daze, “Nicole” didn’t care about much else and began to examine his body.
Her forehead pressed against his, wanting to measure his body temperature.
As “Nicole’s” body drew closer, a pleasant sweet fragrance — a mix of young girl’s body scent and faint perfume — drifted into Liu Kai’s nostrils.
(Is this a young girl’s body fragrance?
Then I’ve really hit the jackpot.)
While Liu Kai was thinking of random things, his gaze still fell into “Nicole’s” deep, soft cleavage.
The sense of shock at such a close distance was even greater than before; such a pair of “jade rabbits” about to burst forth was simply irresistible — huge, round, pale white globes with perfect teardrop shapes, the skin smooth and flawless, veins faintly visible under the surface, and the weight so substantial they swayed heavily with her breathing.
If he had the strength to lift his hand, Liu Kai might have already reached out for them and sunk his fingers deep into that heavenly softness.
“Your temperature is normal, but why is your face so pale?”
“Nicole” found that Liu Kai’s temperature had no abnormalities and breathed a sigh of relief, but then a new question arose.
Liu Kai felt this was very easy to explain.
Why is my face pale?
Because all the blood has concentrated in the lower part of my body!
This was, of course, a joke; Liu Kai himself didn’t know why his body was so weak.
Seeing that her inquiry received no response, “Nicole” planned to change her way of asking.
“Little guy, do you know me?” “Nicole” pointed to herself.
“I’m Nicole, and I run Gentle House.
In this area, I’m…
somewhat famous.” Afterward, she added in a small voice, “Though it’s not a very good kind of fame.”
Nicole?
This person is really committed to the role—even now, is she still Cosplaying?
But then again, Liu Kai knew the character Nicole all too well; he had seen countless “doujinshi” of her and her lewd, money-loving, big-breasted personality.
“If you need help, just nod your head.”
Hearing the girl say this, Liu Kai obediently nodded.
After all, he really had some difficulty moving now and couldn’t even manage to stand up; even if she just helped call the police, that would be excellent.
“Good!” Hearing Liu Kai be so supportive, “Nicole’s” mood improved a lot.
“I won’t lie to you, this place is my secret treasure hoard.
I originally wanted to take a few treasures back, but I didn’t expect to pick you up.
This can be considered a kind of fate.
You…
probably have nowhere to go right now, otherwise you wouldn’t be hiding in a place like this.
Do you want to come to my house?”
Although “Nicole” sounded like she wanted to rescue some lonely and helpless child, he was a thirty-something-year-old man; her words sounded more like an invitation for compensated dating, her massive tits jiggling enticingly as she spoke.
But I don’t have any money either!
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been kicked out of the hospital!
Liu Kai seemed to have already accepted the setting that “he was kicked out of the hospital because he had no money”—after all, the hypothesis of “traveling to the world of Zenless Zone Zero” sounded even less convincing.
While Liu Kai was still engaged in a fierce mental struggle, the last bit of his strength was finally exhausted.
He simply closed his eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.
