It’s Impossible that My Evil Overlord is So Cute - Chapter 15

Chapter 15: The Spirit Ghosts’ New Home

Xu Shenxing put the newspaper aside; a particularly conspicuous large bold title was printed on its front page, “A New Achievement of Our City’s Police! They Uncovered the Great Kidnapping Case!”

He took a sip of rice congee (because Xiao Zhengyi hasn’t yet received the prize), then sighed. He raised his head, looking at the several erratic shapes in his room.

“Oh! Can you just go to other places?”

As the result of this event, Xiao Zhengyi arrested Qiao Hui, who was a collector on the surface, but his real identity was a ghost master.

Because Qin Xingyan had modified Qiao Hui’s memory, he didn’t even remember he was once a ghost master. However, because both witness and evidence were available, in addition to Qin Xingyan still retained his memory about kidnapped others, even if he wouldn’t be sentenced to death, he would be at least sentenced to imprisonment for life.

Because Qiao Hui had lost his abilities, he couldn’t enslave the spirit ghosts anymore. In that case, Xu Shenxing set them free – when he heard these spirit ghosts’ dismal past from the God of Land, he had decided to save these wretched spirit ghosts. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let them climb on his back when he was in the basement; he could kill them as easy as blowing off dust.

Incidentally, Xu Shenxing threw the Shi Ba’s corpse under the sun. Sunlight quickly burned it into flying ash.

However, after he saved these spirit ghosts, they didn’t leave or tried to find a way to reincarnate, but treat Xu Shenxing as their new master and followed him back to Sakura apartment.

To be honest, it was really any good news at all… because their appearances were too scary. Besides, according to Qin Xingyan’s words, spirit ghost was a kind of supernatural beings whose degree of mystery was quite low and was easy to be seen by ordinary people.

“There’s already not many people who wants to rent a room here, if  you decide to live here, you will scare away the other potential tenants! Then I would really have to live by drink wind…”

The spirit of ghosts looked at each another. Seemed like they were  puzzled. At the side, it seemed like Moli had never seen this type of  creature before. She was curiously poking their body with her fingers. Xu Shenxing didn’t know how to describe this scene. Both weird and funny were inappropriate for this situation.

Looking at the spirit ghosts helpless expression, Xu Shenxing sighed again.

“Well, if you want to live here, could you change into something a bit  more good looking?”

It wasn’t their fault. They were just several five or six years old kids  when they became spirit ghosts, then after their death, Qiao Hui simply used them as some tools, of course, they couldn’t get mind growth and didn’t know many things.

After hearing his words, the spirit ghosts turned their bodies into some green smokes. After a moment, they congealed into human shapes.

Different from their former spooky shapes, now, they turned back to their original appearances. They looked like kids who ranged from 5 to 6 year old and their eyes, noses and ears were staying at the places where they should be at.

Although their bodies were still green, but their appearances were at least much better than before.

“Nah, that’s enough…” Xu Shenxing sighed reluctantly.

Moli probably felt bored. She didn’t keep trying to touch the disembodied spirit ghosts instead quickly finish drinking her rice congee, then swiftly ran into Xu Shenxing’s room. She turned on his computer and watched an animation, which she was interested in  recently.

“Alas, though the tenants have increased, but I don’t feel happy at all…” Xu Shenxing sighed as he rubbed his knuckles on his forehead.

The key matter was, no matter whether the evil overlord or young spirit ghosts, they obviously wouldn’t pay the rent.

At this time, the doorbell rang with a crisp sound.

“Moli, go to open the door.” Xu Shenxing was lying on the chair while he drawlingly ordered.

Because he had dismissed the property management personnel before, so he didn’t need to be too worried.

“I decline.” He heard the little girl’s firm voice from his room.

“…”

Why was this girl so lazy? Who taught her?

Xu Shenxing had to stand up and went to the doorway. He opened the door and found that Qin Xingyan was standing in front of his door with dragging a small suitcase.

“What brings you here?” Xu Shenxing raised his eyebrows and asked.

“I want to rent a room.” Qin Xingyan raised a poster in her hand, which was originally posted on a pole not far away. She smiled and asked, “Senpai, am I not welcome?”

“Aren’t you living in the university dormitory?” Xu Shenxing found that it was unsuitable to let his guest stay in the doorway, so he stepped aside and let Qin Xingyan come in. “Besides, I remember our university doesn’t allow students to live out.”

“Earthly rules are meaningless for us. I have solved this problem by using a simple disorient spell. Anyway, it’s way too inconvenient to practice my abilities in university.” Qin Xingyan went into the entryway and put on the slippers as she said,”But here, I needn’t worry too much.”

“Not always. Maybe some ordinary people will come to rent rooms…” Xu Shenxing muttered.

“Well, maybe. Let’s talk about that after you find other tenants.”

“Your expression looks like I can’t find any ordinary tenant!”

“If I’m wrong, I will apologize. But senpai, has here been any ordinary person rent a room here?”

“…Sooner or later, there will be.” Xu Shenxing said, but his tone lacked  any confidence.

Xu Shenxing got a little serious after he ensured that Qin Xingyan wasn’t kidding. “In short, how about the room you lived before? If you don’t like it, you can change your room. Anyway, there are many empty rooms.”

“That room is fine. Oh right, senpai, can I set some defense spells inside the room?”

“Whatever you want…”

Xu Shenxing had given up, “But if you destroy the room, you are going to have to compensate for it.”

“No problem.”

“Five times higher than the market price.”

“Senpai, every time you talk about money, you are a little narrow-minded. You are such a powerful person…”

“Shut up, you bourgeois! You are so rich, how could you understand my pain!”

“I think if you really want to get money, it should be very easy for you.”

“For example, rob the bank?”

“Why are you so extreme?! Please make money by using some more technological method!”

“Rob the bank by using hacking techniques?”

“Yes, it’s really a high technological method, but it’s already unconnected with you abilities! Can you make money by using some more legitimate method?”

Xu Shenxing remained silent for a moment, then said tentatively, “After others successfully rob the bank, kill them and take away their money?”

The girl gazed at Xu Shenxing for a few seconds, then she sighed as if she had compromised. “Well, I don’t know why are you so resist to make money by using your supernatural abilities, but… I know you have difficulties.”

“Ah, speaking of money, the rent!” Because Xu Shenxing didn’t want to keep talking about this topic, so he immediately changed it. He clapped his hands, then stretched out his right hand towards Qin Xingyan, who was still dragging her suitcase, “Since you are so rich, I think it isn’t a problem to pay the rent for the first three months, right?”

“Of course, no problem. Oh right, can I pay by Spirit Stone? It’s quite popular among the people like us.”

“No, I only accept RMB. Please.”

With this, Sakura apartment ushered in its new tenant.
