Chapter 228: The Baldhead's Calculations
Chapter 228: The Baldhead's Calculations
Cyclone wanted to persuade Yecheng to leave the Blizzard Team because she felt that with Yecheng's strength, her younger sister might not be able to control him, and he could even be taken advantage of.
However, before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by an angry Snowflake.
If it had been anyone else, they might have already been sent flying through the air, experiencing the feeling of weightlessness and freedom. But when facing her younger sister, Snowflake, Cyclone could only feel anger and helplessness.
"Hmph, do as you please! I hope that if you get sold off again, you won't blame me for not warning you."
Cyclone had intended to lecture Snowflake, but she soon realized that her actions today were not worthy of such a lecture. So, feeling displeased, she left immediately.
She decided to head to the Hero Association headquarters first to thoroughly investigate who Yecheng really was.
With someone of unknown origins staying by her sister's side, Cyclone couldn't help but feel uneasy.
After seeing her troublesome and challenging older sister leave, Snowflake heaved a sigh of relief. As for Cyclone's warning, Snowflake simply brushed it off.
Joking aside, how could Yecheng, that quirky shut-in, sell her off?
Although they hadn't spent much time together, it was evident from Yecheng's interactions with Saitama and the others that he was a true slacker.
Malicious intentions? Ulterior motives? Would he waste his brainpower on such things? That would be giving him too much credit.
If it weren't for their previous agreement, would Yecheng have been able to join the Blizzard Team? Having finally found a powerful ally, Snowflake wasn't about to let her sister, Cyclone, ruin it.
"Yecheng, about my sudden increase in spiritual power..."
With her most challenging sister gone, Snowflake had wanted to ask Yecheng in detail about his healing abilities and the reason for her sudden spiritual power boost.
But just as she was coming to her senses, she realized that Yecheng, who had been in front of them just moments ago, had disappeared without a trace...
As for Yecheng, he had already resumed his quest to hunt down Seafood Monsters.
Deep Sea King was long gone, and the Seafood Monsters were beginning to retreat, realizing that the land-dwellers were not to be trifled with.
Opportunities like this seafood feast were rare, and if it weren't for Snowflake's earlier warning about the dire situation and the fact that she owed her a favor, Yecheng wouldn't have even bothered with them.
"Damn, I shouldn't have killed Deep Sea King so easily. He wasn't completely useless; at least he managed to bring the seafood to the land.
I was too impulsive before. If I had kept him as a lackey, I could have had high-class seafood buffets whenever I wanted."
After taking down Deep Sea King, as evening approached, Yecheng caught up with two monsters who were attempting to escape back into the sea.
They were a pair of monsters—a clam with legs and an octopus. The clam's legs irritated Yecheng, who thought it must be a product of excessive nuclear radiation, so he didn't bring it back. However, the octopus looked quite appetizing, and he planned to turn it into octopus balls.
"That bald guy must have had a successful hunt this time. When I get home, I'll see if I can find some bamboo poles. After all, I was the one who told him about the seafood buffet, so asking for some intelligence fee shouldn't be unreasonable, right?"
As Yecheng dragged the massive octopus, which was several meters long, back home, he spotted a suspicious figure in the courtyard, rummaging through his water reservoir!
Even though it was already dusk, and the light was dim, Yecheng immediately recognized the distinctive bald head of the intruder.
"Baldy, what are you up to, sneaking around my saltwater pool and my seafood?"
Upon seeing Yecheng return and catching him red-handed, Baldy paused for a moment before regaining his composure and casually replying, "Oh, it's you, Yecheng. It's already evening; isn't it time for dinner?
I was thinking of using that lobster for a seafood hot pot tonight. What do you think?"
Baldy's words sounded perfectly reasonable, and his demeanor was incredibly natural, as if this were an everyday occurrence.
However, Yecheng quickly realized something was amiss. He had indeed planned to use that large lobster for dinner, but what did that have to do with Baldy?
"I don't think so! I found this seafood myself, so why should I share it with you? It's not like it's a massive resource, and even if I let you watch, I won't lose out.
Besides, you've been out for so long, and you couldn't even catch some wild game? You're coming back empty-handed?"
As Yecheng spoke, he glanced at Baldy's saltwater pool with the corner of his eye, and soon he discovered that in the oversized pool Baldy had asked him to prepare, only a few strands of kelp were floating.
This guy had previously boasted about the invasion of sea monsters and confidently asked Yecheng to prepare a larger pool. Was this the result?
Baldy, feeling the intense gaze of Yecheng, eventually had no choice but to scratch his head in dismay, "I find it strange too. I've been wandering around town for half a day, but the monsters that were once everywhere are nowhere to be found.
I encountered a crab monster, and due to my excitement, I attacked a little too fiercely. As a result, the crab ended up losing its legs.
After wandering around for another half-day, I still couldn't find a second monster. These kelp strands were taken from a kelp monster.
There was a group of people fighting that kelp monster, so while they were distracted, I snatched these strands of hair... I mean, kelp."
"Yecheng, let's have a hot pot tonight. I'll provide the kelp, and you can contribute the seafood. You know, kelp is a valuable ingredient for cooking. When making seafood hot pot, the seafood can be used to make soup.
If we're having sushi, kelp can be used to make rice balls, ensuring a balanced diet."
Baldy's mind raced with calculations, and he reached out to grab Yecheng's seafood stock, but Yecheng resisted.
The idea of combining kelp with his high-quality seafood for a meal was absurd!
As expected, the two, unable to reach an agreement, ended up in another scuffle...
As night fell, after Snowflake had dealt with the Blizzard Team's matters, she returned to Yecheng's residence and found the ground floor in disarray.
Upon entering, she asked if the place had been attacked by monsters.
Yecheng and Saitama, who had already reached a preliminary consensus and were about to enjoy their seafood feast, saw the uninvited Snowflake and their expressions soured.
Snowflake, noticing their expressions, scowled. She, Snowflake, had a stunning figure and a beautiful face, yet these two idiots always looked at her with a mix of trouble and disdain!
