Honkai: You're telling me this difficulty is from Honkai Impact 3?!

Shu quickly went through everything Fu Hua had done this time, wanting to find proof that she was indispensable.

But after a careful review, Shu realized something.

Fu Hua… throughout the entire journey, she really didn't seem to have any indispensable achievements?

Because of her leg injury, she had started arguing with him two nights ago about whether they should abandon her. The end result was that he had forcefully rejected Fu Hua's request to abandon herself. It had even become a bit unpleasant at the time.

And yesterday afternoon, he was the one who carried Fu Hua the entire way. The task of treating wounds, which originally belonged to Fu Hua, had been taken over by the more professional Bronya.

Throughout the whole journey, Fu Hua really did seem to have no use.

"Also, everyone seems to have already adapted to the apocalypse... adapted to the days after the Honkai's descent. Only I am still immersed in the days before the Honkai came..."

Shu suddenly realized, So that's where the problem lies!

So Fu Hua wasn't just sleepy and needed someone to talk to. It was that she couldn't sleep because of his reminders from the daytime. She was even having trouble understanding it herself. She didn't want to wake others, so she could only try to find him to talk to...

Tsk, I'm not human, am I?

"Sigh, actually your situation is normal…" The one who tied the bell must untie it. Shu sighed and abandoned his previous playful demeanor.

If the other person was just in a bad mood, then acting goofy was a very effective solution. But Fu Hua clearly had a problem that was bothering her. In this situation, acting goofy wouldn't have much effect.

"Before this disaster, we were all just ordinary people," Shu said, against his own heart, but the following words were spoken from the bottom of his heart.

"Before the disaster struck, we could never know what we would do after the disaster or what others would do." Shu turned his gaze to the distance. "It's like a firefighter once told me: 'Kid, during a fire, you must fasten the strap of your fire helmet. Every buckle must be securely fastened.' I asked, 'Is it because if I don't, I'll get burned to death by the flames or choked to death by the smoke?'"

Fu Hua listened intently, she thought so too, but clearly, the story Shu was telling was missing a twist.

Shu reached out, wanting to find a bottle of water to drink like wine, but he didn't find one. He could only sigh and then slowly speak, "The firefighter uncle listened to my answer. He was silent for a moment and patted my head. He said: 'I'm glad you think that way, but as long as the mask is on your face, you can avoid the smoke. It's just that after you tie it up, others won't be able to snatch your mask away.'"

Fu Hua was stunned. The twist was truly unexpected, but also logical.

"In ordinary days, who would have thought that people would fight over a mask? So, we need to change, but not everyone can make changes in time, just like not everyone can protect their mask, and not everyone can snatch other people's masks in time."

"We just adapted a little faster. You won't be unable to adapt forever, so you don't need to worry about this problem," Shu said with a smile. Seeing that Fu Hua still looked a bit hesitant, Shu knew he probably just gave a bunch of empty words.

Shu scratched his head, "Anyway, we all have this problem. You're just deliberately using your own weaknesses to compare to our strengths. If it's like what you're saying, then I'm even more of a useless… cough cough!" Shu almost blurted out something vulgar.

But Fu Hua had already understood what Shu meant and was now looking at him with a troubled expression.

Shu's heart skipped a beat, Crap, I'm not getting disliked, am I?

"Shu, you… I can't see any of your shortcomings…" Fu Hua hesitated for a moment before saying, "You don't seem to have made any mistakes…"

Shu liked the first part of that sentence very much, but he didn't like the second half.

What do you mean I haven't made any mistakes? Every mistake I make is not something I can easily accept! God knows how much suffering I had to endure?!

"What are you saying?! What kind of talk is that!" Shu almost stood up, stretching out both hands in front of Fu Hua and starting to count with his fingers, "First of all! If I was the one who was injured, I would definitely have grabbed your leg with one hand while grabbing Kiana with the other, crying and begging you not to abandon me! The idea of saying 'leave me behind' would never exist!"

"Secondly! I can't outrun Kiana, and I can't beat you in a fight! When I encounter danger, I can only shout and run in circles, waiting for you guys to save me!"

"Finally! You were the one who found the bicycles, and Himeko is using your medicine. You also saved Mei when the Honkai broke out! What do you mean you can't do anything?"

Fu Hua was stunned on the spot, looking at Shu, who was anxiously listing her achievements while also listing all his flaws. She pursed her lips, and suddenly, she couldn't control herself and laughed.

"It's obviously my problem. Why do you seem more anxious than me, Shu?" Fu Hua asked, smiling.

"Ah? Is that so?" Shu immediately put on a wary look. "Let me tell you, I'm not anxious. It's just a friend of mine who couldn't stand it anymore. I would definitely not be anxious. Who would be anxious because someone else is flexing on them? Would you? I, for one, wouldn't. I am usually not anxious unless… well, there's no unless, anyway I am not anxious at all. Why would anyone be anxious? This is nothing! It's impossible to be anxious, okay?"

Shu frantically babbled a bunch of "I'm not anxious" words. His anxious and unwilling appearance made Fu Hua laugh again.

Normally, she would never have been unable to stop herself from laughing twice in a row because of someone else's jokes. But today, she had taken the initiative to reveal her most vulnerable and true self. Without any restraints, she had received two hits from Shu, which was why...

Seeing that Fu Hua's mood had clearly improved, Shu let out a sigh of relief. As long as Fu Hua didn't get stuck on this issue, with Fu Hua's mentality and philosophical wisdom, it wouldn't be long before Fu Hua could find the answer herself.

"Shu," After laughing for a while, Fu Hua stopped laughing and looked at Shu, who was finished, with a smile on her face. "Indeed, you really are a very gentle… and interesting person."

"Didn't feel like it." Good thing that wasn't Otto who said that… Shu rolled his eyes. He received another good-person card.

Fu Hua lowered her gaze, was silent for a long time, and then suddenly spoke slowly, "Shu, can you listen to my p-"

"Fu Hua! Get downstairs and get in the car!! I'll go wake everyone else up!!" However, at this moment, Shu suddenly stood up with a serious expression. He loudly gave this instruction, then turned and rushed toward the other's rooms.

Fu Hua stood up, puzzled, following Shu. It was then that Fu Hua saw the enormous creature that was flashing a faint pinkish-purple light in the darkness.

"Everyone! Get ready to leave! The Honkai beast is here!!"
