21st Century Necromancer-Chapter 568 - 564: Encountering a Robbery (Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

```

They did not disturb the six million Lost Souls slumbering beneath Paris, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi finished their journey in the Underground Tomb and went to the restaurant Yu Chen had booked beforehand.

Meanwhile, in Japan, Naoki Inomata was also getting ready to eat.

However, due to the time difference, Naoki Inomata was preparing breakfast.

Turning on the heat, he stir-fried the chopped ingredients in the pan, then poured in the leftover rice from last night's dinner. If he stirred it well and got the seasoning right, he'd make a delicious breakfast.

While turning over the spatula, Naoki Inomata couldn't help but recall the days with Yu Chen at The University of Tokyo. Sometimes, when their experiments in the lab made them miss meal times, the two of them, having spent all their money on experiments, couldn't afford to eat out and had no choice but to cook for themselves back in the dormitory.

Of course, back then, it was mostly Yu Chen who cooked, and Naoki Inomata learned how to make fried rice from him.

"The rice should be left overnight, because the moisture evaporates, this gives the grains more texture and prevents them from turning into a mush."

"When stir-frying, keep stirring to ensure the rice is fully fluffed up, which results in a better texture."

"Don't fry it for too long, but also don't dish it out too soon. Frying for too long will dry out the rice or even cause it to burn, spoiling the taste, while dishing it out too soon won't allow enough moisture to evaporate, which is also not delicious. Make sure you fry until you see the white steam rise from the rice, then it's just right."

These were the three tips Yu Chen taught Naoki Inomata when he learned how to make fried rice, which Inomata had always remembered.

But thinking of Yu Chen, he couldn't help but remember the little girl he had seen at Yu Chen's wedding.

Although she seemed to be a high school student, to Naoki Inomata, a singleton in his early thirties, she really was just a young girl.

Naoki Inomata couldn't understand what had gotten into him at the time; it seemed like he was spurred by seeing Yu Chen get married, which is why he ended up giving the bouquet he caught to that girl.

However, Naoki Inomata did have a good impression of that girl, for she had an indescribable purity and transparency about her, somewhat reminiscent of the girl next door from his high school days.

Perhaps it was this sense of familiarity that made Naoki Inomata keep talking to her at the wedding, and why he even went as far as to give her the bouquet.

Amused by his own actions, Naoki Inomata thought that even if he truly wanted a girlfriend, he should be looking for someone closer to his own age. A high school student, even if she could indeed be his girlfriend, would seem inappropriate, wouldn't she?

Naoki Inomata, who didn't consider himself to have any particular quirks, simply had a good impression of the girl. Apart from giving her the bouquet, he didn't even ask for her name.

Yet, the thought of having a girlfriend made Naoki Inomata sigh. After all, he was a graduate of The University of Tokyo's Medical School, his family ran a horse ranch and a farm, and although he wasn't as handsome as Yu Chen, he could still be considered to have fine features. By all accounts, he should be considered a prime marriage candidate, so why couldn't he find a girlfriend?

But it's said that catching the bride's bouquet at a wedding means you'll get married soon. He wondered if it was true. If so, maybe he would soon meet his destined match?

```

Inomata Naoki dished out the already stir-fried rice from the pan, thinking such thoughts, but for some reason, the first smile that came to mind when thinking of a girlfriend was that of the little girl he saw at Yu Chen's wedding.

Maybe finding a high school girlfriend wouldn't be too bad? Aren't the current idols around that age? Legitimately calling a high school student your wife seems pretty good too, right? After all, high school students in Japan can get married.

He shook his head, quickly banishing these dangerous thoughts from his mind. While eating breakfast, Inomata Naoki couldn't help but think about asking Yu Chen to introduce him to a girlfriend the next time he saw him.

Just as Inomata Naoki was thinking about asking Yu Chen for a girlfriend-related favor, over in Paris, Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi had encountered a bit of trouble.

After finishing a meal at a restaurant, perhaps wanting to stroll through the Parisian streets and experience the French night atmosphere, Hiromi Jounouchi suggested taking a walk with Yu Chen.

Yu Chen, of course, wouldn't refuse Hiromi Jounouchi's suggestion. Others might worry about safety issues, but for Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi, unless the Seal they discovered underground Paris that day got broken, or deities descended upon earth, they didn't need to worry about the so-called safety issues.

However, to Yu Chen's surprise, Paris's public safety was worse than he had anticipated.

Coming across three waves of thieves was one thing—after all, the prevalence of thieves in Paris is a globally recognized issue, even the Prime Minister of France's residence had been visited by thieves. But looking at the men in front of them who obviously had a Middle Eastern style, and the knives they held in their hands, Yu Chen still felt quite helpless.

"Give me money!" several Middle Eastern men said with a half-baked English accent, waving their knives in an attempt to intimidate Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi.

Seeing these Middle Eastern men who knew nothing of life or death, Yu Chen touched his nose and asked Hiromi Jounouchi, "Hiromi, do you remember when was the last time we beat up some thugs together?"

"Not too long ago, right? But I am wearing a dress today, so it's inconvenient for me to make a move. I'll leave it to you, husband!" Hiromi Jounouchi said with a smile, not a bit worried about the situation in front of them: "Besides, if you want me to change how I address you, you have to change yours too, darling~!"

"I know, my dear wife." Yu Chen, hearing Hiromi Jounouchi say this, dutifully changed his term of endearment.

However, while the two of them were flirting with each other, the Middle Eastern men were clearly furious with their indifferent attitudes, particularly since it had been a long time since they had touched a woman. The last time was a month ago, when a white woman came to them on her own. They robbed her of her money, then took their pleasure from her, and after killing her to silence her, they threw her body into the sewer.

Now, these two in front of them not only looked wealthy but the woman even more delectable, so these refugees from the Middle East couldn't hold back any longer. One of them directly lunged at Yu Chen with a knife.

The knife stopped about half a meter away from Yu Chen.

Yu Chen hadn't even raised his hand; a single glance was all it took for the knife to stop mid-air, no matter how hard the holder tried, he couldn't push it even a millimeter closer.

Seeing this bizarre scene, the other refugees were surprised, yet they still charged at Yu Chen, shouting "Allahu Akbar," wielding their knives, with two of them even going straight for Hiromi Jounouchi.

Seeing the situation escalate, the smile on Yu Chen's face faded, and the restrained aura of a Demigod was unleashed without reservation.
