God Eater Sequence: The Devourer

Qin Siyang and Wen Shu walked side by side, leaving the school.

At an intersection, the two of them had to go in different directions.

Qin Siyang kept observing behind them, confirming that Li Jingwen and the others were not following them. Then, he said,"Don't worry, they didn't follow us. Yesterday's incident dragged you into it, I'm really sorry."

Wen Shu glanced at Qin Siyang, her expression somewhat complicated.

In the end, she still softly said,"Thank you."

However, her cheeks were already swollen from the slaps, and even speaking was unclear, which made Qin Siyang feel even more guilty.

Qin Siyang waved his hand,"Don't say thanks. You got hit because of my matter in the first place. If you think about it, it's my problem. Seeing you in this state, I don't feel good either."

"No, I was hit because of Li Jingwen and the others—it doesn't have much to do with you. You saved me and even helped me resolve the trouble afterward. I should be grateful."

Qin Siyang looked into Wen Shu's eyes, which did not seem particularly gentle, and shrugged,"But your eyes are saying something different from your words. In your eyes, I see dislike toward me."

"Your feeling is right. Even though rationally I know you did nothing wrong, emotionally, I still feel somewhat distant from you. I hope you can understand."

Qin Siyang thought for a moment,"Even though I slapped Li Jingwen twice for you and eliminated the trouble she might cause in the future?"

Wen Shu lightly nodded,"Even though you slapped Li Jingwen twice for me and eliminated the trouble she might cause in the future."

After saying that, Wen Shu turned around and left.

Qin Siyang, however, felt a bit annoyed.

Li Jingwen's stupidity and malice had somewhat exceeded his imagination.

Even though he was deceived in his past life, he had only thought Li Jingwen was just a girl playing two sides for benefits.

Now it seemed that Li Jingwen was rotten from the roots, completely beyond saving.

However, the fact that Wen Shu got dragged into this made Qin Siyang feel a bit guilty.

This was an undeserved disaster. If it were him, he might have already killed someone.

Qin Siyang sighed, carrying his lunch box filled with food back home.

Yesterday's meal was still mushrooms—one of Qin Siyang's favorite cafeteria dishes.

Aunt Zhang, who served food in the cafeteria, seemed to know his preference and gave him an extra two scoops. He also expressed his gratitude to her.

He pulled a chair to sit by the window, eating while watching the wandering gods outside.

His satisfied look was like a cat, munching on cat food while watching delicious fish swim in a tank.

After finishing his meal, washing the lunch box, and taking a quick cold shower, Qin Siyang went straight to bed.

Qin Siyang had completely come to terms with it.

What was the point of staying up at home at night?

Since there was nothing to do after getting home, he might as well sleep early and wake up early to keep his body healthy.

After a good sleep, Qin Siyang felt much less troubled.

Before heading out, he glanced at calendar.

[Blue Star Calendar, January 5, 2010]

[Western Calendar, Sunday]

[Summer Calendar, Ji Chou Year, Eleventh Month, Twenty-Seventh Day, Suitable for Sacrifices]

When he woke up the next day, Qin Siyang carried a bag and his lunch box as usual.

But considering how that nosy teacher had bothered him yesterday, he stuffed two books into his bag.

However, his textbooks for this semester were already lost, so he grabbed last year's textbooks instead.

Since he was just using them as a cover, it didn't matter.

Leaving home, he once again took a detour to the entrance of the internet café.

This time, he noticed that the one sitting at the counter wasn't Liu Dazhi but a burly middle-aged man with a beard.

Qin Siyang smiled slightly.

The opportunity had come.

He pulled up the hood of his sweatshirt, avoided the internet café's entrance camera, and gestured for the bearded man at the counter to come outside.

The middle-aged man pointed at himself in confusion,"You're looking for me?"

Qin Siyang nodded,"That's right."

The middle-aged man was a bit puzzled but still walked outside.

After all, Qin Siyang looked young, like a student—he probably wasn't up to anything bad.

Once the man stepped out, Qin Siyang led him to the alley behind the internet café.

The garbage in the alley was still piled up, and the stench of food waste was even stronger.

Even someone like Qin Siyang, who hated cafeteria food, had to admit that compared to this place, the cafeteria was heaven.

The internet café owner also covered his nose as he walked over, looking around in disgust. He seemed unaware that the trash had been dumped behind his café.

He muttered, "That lazy bastard Liu Dazhi—I told him to take the trash to the garbage dump, and he just dumped it here. I'll definitely deal with him later!"

Qin Siyang heard this but didn't respond.

Once they reached the spot where he had talked with Liu Dazhi that night, Qin Siyang finally asked, "Are you the owner of the internet café?"

"That's me."

"The two people the police took away from your café that day—one of them was my friend."

Hearing this, the internet café owner frowned,"Your friend got taken away—what does that have to do with me?"

"You know what those two people the police took away were doing, right?"

The owner wasn't someone easy to deal with either. Hearing Qin Siyang's words and looking at his youthful face, he immediately became wary,"What are you trying to say? Are you trying to trick me into talking?"

"Trick you?",Qin Siyang chuckled,"No need for that. Before my friend was taken away, he sent me a message saying he left something here. I want to check the surveillance footage from that day."

The internet café owner snorted,"Kid, you think you can just check surveillance whenever you want?"

"The thing he left for me is worth seventy silver coins. If I find it, I'll give you one."

"Give me one silver coin? Look at what you're wearing—your whole outfit isn't worth a few copper coins, and you're here bragging?"

Before the internet café owner could finish speaking, Qin Siyang pulled out a silver coin.

The silver coin, gleaming dimly under the starlight, instantly captured the owner's attention.

"You…"

Qin Siyang flicked the silver coin in his hand, producing a crisp metallic sound unique to silver coins, then caught it again.

"My offer—do you accept?"

This silver coin was something Qin Siyang had looted from the three criminals.

Carrying too many copper coins would make noise and attract attention.

But he only had one silver coin, and keeping it in his pocket wouldn't be noticeable. Plus, a silver coin was worth a fortune—it could accomplish a lot.

However, due to his current status, he had no way to spend it.

He couldn't register with the Sequence Ability Management Bureau yet, nor could he access higher-level transactions. As for underground markets, he had no clue about them.

This silver coin had become utterly useless to him.

But Qin Siyang clearly realized that as he grew stronger and eventually registered as a Sequence Ability User, the value of this silver coin would gradually decrease—because by then, he wouldn't be short on money anymore.

With the talent of "God Eater," no amount of wealth would be a problem.
