What?!

The famous "C" is actually my fan? How could there be a coincidence like that in this world?

Qiu Li'er was shaken to her core. In that instant, it felt like an invisible mountain had pressed down on her body. She could barely breathe, and she couldn't even move a finger.

No... it didn't seem like just a mountain. There was also a faint scent, soft and milky...

"Little Fox?"

At some point, Nan Shi had leaned in close. She looked at her with a face full of curiosity. Her full chest was pressing against Qiu Li'er's shoulder, squeezing out a tempting curve.

...So it really was a mountain. Just two of them.

"Nan Shi... you're done washing up?"

Qiu Li'er's pretty face flushed bright red, and the tail under her blanket started wagging excitedly.

You really wouldn't know until you looked. The moment she raised her head, two huge snowballs were practically crushing against Qiu Li'er's face.

Right now, Nan Shi had only a thin bath towel wrapped around her. Her full chest rose and fell gently. The droplets on her body hadn't been fully dried yet. Through the misty dampness, you could vaguely make out the tender skin beneath the towel. The hem of the fabric barely covered her butt, and every little twist gave the illusion that you might catch a glimpse of something.

Hss... now this was a real lewd pic, okay? Way hotter than those selfies from the original body.

"Nan Shi, Nan Shi." Qiu Li'er asked with a blushing face, "Do you know Detective C's QQ number?"

"C? Of course I do." Nan Shi pulled out her phone from in front of her chest and tapped the screen a few times. "Here, this is the number. See it clearly?"

"Mmh, there's some fog on the screen. Let me wipe it..."

"But C never adds friends," Nan Shi said. "If you want to hire him, you can only send mail to his private inbox. After all, he's basically a legendary detective in the academy."

"A legend, huh. I see."

"Alright, get some sleep, Little Fox. We still have class tomorrow." Nan Shi rubbed Qiu Li'er's ears, then climbed into bed.

With a smack, the whole dorm fell into darkness. Qiu Li'er hugged her phone and quietly curled up under the blanket.

The number Nan Shi gave her was exactly the same as this detective's number. Which meant...

This C was the real deal. He really was my die-hard fan?!

Even Qiu Li'er was startled by her own discovery.

Wow... Legendary Detective C looked mysterious and solitary on the surface, but behind the scenes he actually liked looking at lewd fox-girl pics? And he even gave serious professional advice every day. If that got out, his whole image would collapse.

The contrast was way too huge. It was almost on par with the original body's mess.

Meanwhile, seeing that Qiu Li'er hadn't replied, the detective sent several more messages in a row.

[Detective: Well? Did you go verify it in a panic? You believe my identity now, right?]

[Detective: Heh heh... you said you wanted to hire me, yeah? It's not impossible. I don't ask for much. Just send me a few more lewder pics in return.]

[Detective: Of course, I know you probably won't accept that. You've got amnesia, after all. So you'll be scared, embarrassed, unwilling.]

[Qiu Li'er: That's true. I still can't really accept it...]

[Detective: Then~ get~ lost~]

The moment she saw that outrageously arrogant reply, Qiu Li'er's tail shot straight up. Her fighting spirit filled to the brim, and for a second she actually wanted to punch him through the internet cable.

"Damn! That attitude sucks way too much. What, do you think you're my boss?" Qiu Li'er huffed.

So this was the guy's true nature. Seriously awful. He had to be some despicable coward who only knew how to hide behind a screen.

Just then, a woman's voice suddenly rang out beside Qiu Li'er's ear—

[I suggest you agree to this person's terms.]

"Wah! You startled me again. You're... the mission system!"

[System? Does that title help you understand my existence better?]

"Kind of. It makes me feel like I'm the protagonist of a novel... wait, can you hear my thoughts?"

[Yes.]

"Uwah... that's bad. Doesn't that totally violate my privacy?"

The system ignored her. A few seconds later, there was a ding.

[Ding~ "Detective" is a major source of support for completing the main quest. Can Qiu Li'er seize this chance and successfully cooperate with him?]

[Mission 1: Follow the internet cable over there and give "Detective" an "Intentional Blasting Punch." Reward: Strength +1000, Magic +1000, learn advanced martial skill "Intentional Blasting Punch"]

[Mission 2: Delete "Detective" from your contacts and stop interacting with him, choosing to investigate alone. Reward: Strength +100, Magic +100]

[Mission 3: Meet "Detective's" demands and take a lewd selfie wearing only underwear to send over. Reward: Charm +500]

[Mission 4: Invite "Detective" to meet offline and make it clear that you want to do some "special things" to him. Reward: Awakened ability "One Mind, Two Uses"]

The flood of information hit all at once. Qiu Li'er's head started to ache, and she felt dizzy all over.

"Th-this... why did four missions show up all at once?"

[You may choose any of them to complete, but you must choose at least one. This is one of the prices of your reincarnation.]

"But what are these weird missions? Follow the internet cable and hit someone... how am I supposed to do something like that?" Qiu Li'er asked, baffled.

[I'm helping you. If you don't like it, don't pick it.]

"Ugh... you're awful too."

But not choosing wasn't an option. The system had already hinted that Detective C was a very important figure. Qiu Li'er couldn't give up an opportunity right in front of her.

[Hint: Strength, Magic, and Charm are all your personal attributes. For an ordinary adult, each attribute is 100.]

"100?" Qiu Li'er stroked her chin and started thinking. "That's actually pretty generous."

After thinking it through carefully, 1 was impossible, 2 was out immediately, and 3 was way too shameless. Only 4 looked decent.

It was just asking the other party to meet up offline. It didn't say she had to succeed. And the reward looked pretty good too.

In games, raw stat points usually weren't as direct or useful as an actual ability.

It's just... what exactly did "special things" mean? The mission didn't give any clear definition. Maybe she could just invite Detective C out for a cup of milk tea?

"If it's an offline meetup, then it's an offline meetup. I just hope that detective really is a big-breasted, long-legged big sis." Qiu Li'er started comforting herself. "That way it'll be easier to do some 'special things'... ehehe."

[Go ahead and choose. I am definitely helping you,] the system said with absolute confidence.

...

Lilith Academy's teaching district might be small, but the area it actually controlled was enormous. So enormous that you could see grasslands, deserts, swamps, forests, snowfields, and all kinds of landscapes here. The total area was comparable to a miniature nation.

And those who had made great contributions to Lilith Academy could own a private residence within the academy.

On the shores of Amethyst Lake in the academy's eastern district, there stood one such exquisite little villa. Every day, countless students looked at it with envy.

What powerful senior lived inside?

"I already said this detective isn't taking commissions! Why do these students keep bothering me?!"

"A ranking of the academy's goddess-tier girls? Tsk tsk tsk. Every girl on the list has big boobs and long legs. Looks like this generation of students has pretty basic taste."

"Which blind idiot said Detective C is a thirty-year-old grand mage who's still a virgin? Heh... just watch me flame the hell out of you!"

A burst of rapid clattering rang out. The crystal ball floating in the air gave off a faint white glow, slightly lighting up the dim basement.

A petite figure in a yellow-gray coat sat there with one leg crossed over the other, furiously arguing with netizens on the magic web through a laptop.

This person was neither the big-breasted, long-legged big sister people imagined, nor some cool and domineering handsome guy.

On the contrary, she looked only twelve years old. Her appearance was neat and spotless, and every inch of her skin was so pale and delicate it looked sculpted by hand. She was a genuine soft and tiny little loli.

Completely at odds with that petite body, she had another title that was extremely famous.

Her name was Xi Xi. She was also C.

She was a detective.
