Chapter 7 A Thousand Layers Of Deception
"Sister Aki, believe me, this guy is definitely not my mom!" Li Xia crumpled the flyer in his hand and threw it into the nearby trash can.
"Fool." Asakawa Aki stood up, wearing high heels, and walked to him, holding his hand and looking into his eyes. "I am your aunt. How could I forget having a sister like her?"
"Um." Her words quickly calmed Li Xia down. She was also angry earlier. Asakawa Aki was his mother's stepsister and a relative. It was impossible for him to have a mother like on these strange flyers.
"But, young people nowadays know how to have fun." Asakawa Aki propped her chin with one hand, with a suggestive smile. Her fingers, coated with red-colored nail polish, rested on her pristine chin, exuding a unique charm of a mature woman.
Li Xia could tell from her suggestive smile what she was thinking, and his face turned dark. "Don't think too much, we don't have that kind of relationship."
"Is that so? Then what kind of relationship do you have?" Asakawa Aki took a step closer, almost pressing against him, her stockings-clad long legs against Li Xia's thighs.
"In any case, we only met for the first time yesterday." Li Xia stepped back, only to find himself backed against the laboratory table, realizing that he had been pushed to a position where he couldn't retreat, and could only lean his upper body backwards.
Asakawa Aki had a strong presence, and with the two of them pressed together, Li Xia felt an oppressive sensation as if he was being held down.
If it was just encountering a pervert, he would really speak up, but that woman is a powerful pervert who can cut monsters in half. He doesn't want to involve Sister Aki in this.
He hesitated, not knowing what to say.
Now, Asakawa Aki reached out and gently tapped his forehead, her voice soft: "Silly, don't pretend to be an adult. We're family, shouldn't we solve any problems together?"
"Sister Aki..." Li Xia's eyes welled up with tears at her words, thinking about being chased by those strangers just now, he felt a wave of inexplicable gratitude.
He had misunderstood Asakawa Aki, even though she was usually unreliable, always making mean jokes during their time living together, lazy, never cleaning up, treating him like a slave and even tricking him out of his living expenses. But in the end, he could only trust his own family. Although they were not blood-related, Li Xia truly saw her as a family member at this moment.
At that moment, a ringing sound came from her chest, Asakawa Aki stood up straight and reached into her bag, taking out a cellphone.
Seeing Li Xia's strange gaze, she pointed to her tight-fitting skirt, indicating that she didn't have pockets.
"I'll take a call first." Asakawa Aki waved her hand at him, motioning for Li Xia to sit first, then pressed the answer button and walked out while listening to the call.
Sitting down on the office chair, Li Xia could still feel the residual warmth left by her.
Closing his eyes, he began to contemplate the ways to deal with the current situation. The most important thing now is to figure out what that powerful pervert wants to do.
If he was to call the police rashly, aside from whether they would take the case, considering that woman's habit of slashing people without batting an eye, she might even turn her anger towards him.
"Wait?" Li Xia was stunned. Suddenly, he remembered that when he lived with Sister Aki, she never avoided him on the phone.
A foreboding feeling arose in his heart. Standing up and walking to the laboratory door, he pressed his ear against it, able to clearly hear the sound of Asakawa Aki answering the phone.
"Yes, he's with me."
"Handing him over is impossible, he's my nephew after all."
Li Xia was stunned. Sister Aki was actually in contact with that mysterious woman, and she was unwilling to hand him over. This caused a warm current to rise in his heart.
The voice continued: "You have to pay more."
"...Damn it!" The moment the feeling of touch rose in Li Xia's heart, it was immediately suppressed, as if it never existed. Turning his head to look at the balcony, there was a water pipe next to it, which he could use to climb down.
On the distant attic, Komachi Akane hung up the phone: "He did go to Professor Aki's place, but will this...?"
After obtaining detailed information about Li Xia yesterday, they learned about his guardian in Tokyo.
To become Li Xia's mother, dealing with Asakawa Aki is necessary, but Kirigiri Shimizu knows that trying to deceive this university professor will significantly increase the difficulty.
However, Kirigiri Shimizu quickly identified the crux of the problem. She only needs to make Li Xia believe that she is his mother; it's not important what others think of their relationship.
So, she quickly contacted Asakawa Aki and disguised herself as Li Xia's girlfriend.
Of course, Asakawa Aki didn't believe her.
However, Kirigiri Shimizu effortlessly revealed detailed information about Li Xia, and she did not conceal her identity as a high-ranking officer of the Metropolitan Police Department. She had appeared on television just yesterday, with her iconic white hair and looks, making it impossible to hide.
As for today's commotion, it's simply a lovers' quarrel game.
Although Asakawa Aki had doubts, considering this reason to be far-fetched, with Kirigiri Shimizu's status and appearance, she couldn't think of any other motives for Li Xia.
She could only lament that the more serious someone appears, the bigger their hidden agenda.
In the end, Kirigiri Shimizu indicated that there would be a reward once the matter is settled.
So the two of them reached a happy consensus.
"It's okay," Kirigiri Shimizu slowly opened her eyes. Just now, she received a prompt from the system indicating the completion of the mission.
"Random Mission (1/3) Son's classmate"
""Task objective: Make more classmates of Li Xia aware of your relationship (10000/10000)."
"Mission completed."
"Completion rate 100%, rating S."
"Rating explanation: For each S-level rating, there is a 1% chance of randomly obtaining an extraordinary skill during reward settlement."
"Note: Extraordinary skills are skills that cannot be understood using any cognitive understanding and can be activated 100% regardless of the user's own strength."
"Skill level guide updated"
"Extraordinary"
"Myth: Causality skill, Law skill."
Kirigiri Shimizu carefully read every word, afraid of missing any details. After completing this mission, the level guide was updated, but only two types were displayed: extraordinary and myth.
The last drawn skill was the causality skill, and this time, an extraordinary skill appeared with an S-level rating, so only two appeared in the level guide. To see all the levels, different rating missions need to be completed.
The words "extraordinary" made her heartbeat accelerate for a moment, especially the ability to fully utilize strength regardless of the user's own power.
The rarity level is still above the level of legends, it's hard to imagine how powerful it is, but unfortunately the probability of one percent is too small.
Just then, the system prompt sounded again.
"Congratulations, you have triggered a special achievement: Perfect Start."
"Perfect Start: In the first random mission, you achieved 100% completion rate."
"Special reward: When settling three random missions, the probability of extraordinary skills appearing is increased from one percent to one hundred percent."
