My love is abyss mode

Chapter 42: Friendship Fee (with remarks at the end of the chapter)

The cool wind ripped off the dead leaves that had not yet fallen from the trees on the roadside, and the branches shook, making dissatisfied sounds.

Kuronuma Ya stood beside Shirakawa Momo, looking down at her as she teased a stray cat with tender green grass leaves. Stiff shadows were embedded in the folds of the durable black sportswear fabric.

The black car slowly drove past the two of them, its red taillights flashing before disappearing into the night, and the street became quiet.

"I've already told you, at your own risk."

Shirakawa Momo looked up at the direction the car had left, and said softly and indifferently, "Ryo will not sit idly by and watch Toyama Chitose approach you. Have you learned your lesson?"

This was the first time Maomao took the initiative to talk to him since the last time they parted at the tram station.

In the past, the two would still go to the tram station together, go home together at night, and work together on weekends, but she couldn't wake up in the morning, ignored people at night, and had a gloomy face on weekends.

"Are you happy that I lost to her?" Black Swampfang squatted down and reached out to touch the stray cat's head.

It's furry and feels good, but not as soft as the big one.

These stray cats that often appear in the neighborhood are very vigilant and usually do not get close to people.

His eyes fell on the grass leaves in Shirakawa Momo's hand. In recent days, a pot of catnip has appeared in the corridor of the apartment. She must have raised it specially for petting cats.

"I don't care." Shirakawa Tao glanced at him coldly, her golden eyes reflecting the soft light of the street lamp.

But, I am a little concerned - I don't want to watch Kuronuma fall into Toyama Chitose's trap, being forced to take responsibility and pass on the sword art that he doesn't like at all.

So she told Hatsukano Ryo that during the time she was on leave, Toyama Chitose still had the idea of ​​giving up music and accepting the family mission, and was prepared to achieve her goal by hooking up with men.

Except for Kuronuma Ya, no one believed that Toyama Chitose really liked him.

It is difficult to express true love. Chitose Toyama never mentioned this to anyone, but she suddenly took action after he transferred to another school.

"I'm dating Hatsukano-senpai."

Kuronuma Ya curled up the corner of his mouth with a wicked smile, and observed Shirakawa Momo's expression from the side. Her hand movements stiffened for a moment, and she said "Oh" in a casual tone, without any flaws.

"There's nothing I can do. If I lose, I have to accept her conditions."

"Oh."

"I plan to quit my job and challenge her again at the end of the month. If I win, I will break up with her." Hei Nuya raised his hand to scratch the stray cat's chin. The cat closed its eyes comfortably and made a "gurgling" sound in its throat.

"You're no match for her. Ryo is perfect."

Shirakawa Momo frowned slightly, stuffed cat grass into the stray cat's mouth, stood up and walked towards the apartment building's door: "[Perseverance] also depends on the situation. I suggest you just honestly marry into the family."

"Whitebeard also died in the Battle of Marineford."

Kuronuma Ya followed her up the stairs. Where he couldn't see, Shirakawa Momo's eyes dimmed a little.

She is indeed "Blackbeard" and knows how to defeat Hatsukano Ryo, but she is not "Blackbeard" and cannot betray him for the "Dark-Dark Fruit".

"I will enforce the principle that people can only be destroyed, not defeated. When I defeat her, I will definitely stack you two up."

Black Swampfang's confident voice came from behind. She turned into the corridor and tried to control her voice: "Scum, pest, you are hopeless."

This awful man could actually say such words so openly.

Chitose Toyama should tell him the secret to defeating Ryo, right?

That bad woman will definitely betray the band.

Immersed in her own thoughts, Shirakawa Momo didn't hear what Kuronuma Ya said next. She took out the key from her pocket and opened the door. She walked in with a cold face and locked the door.

The door cuts off the outside world, and the dark apartment is quiet.

Her golden eyes were listless, and she felt weak inside. Shirakawa Momo supported herself against the wall, trying to keep her limp legs standing.

Why is this happening? Didn't Liang say she wanted to find a boyfriend as perfect as herself?

How does Black Marsh Fang meet the requirements?

He is obviously just a nasty and terrible pest, not gentle at all. Apart from his perfect appearance, he has no other good qualities.

A strong sense of sourness surged in my heart, like chewing a raw green lemon with skin, with a bitter taste in my mouth.

Tao Shirakawa walked into the bathroom, holding on to the wall, turned on the ceiling light, opened the faucet to the maximum, scooped up the rushing water with both hands and poured it into her mouth to dilute the taste.

The cold water flowed along my skin, suppressing the envy and regret in my heart.

I envy Hatsukano Ryo for being able to date him openly without so many worries that drain my energy; I regret telling Hatsukano Ryo about Kuronuma Ya, as her choice far exceeded my expectations.

The good news is that Toyama Chitose's problem has been solved, and there is no need to worry about Kuronuma Ya being bewitched by her.

She looked up at the mirror: the face of Shirakawa Momo in the mirror was fragile, her golden eyes were empty and lifeless, and there were drops of water at the corners of her mouth. Behind her was a dark corridor, and the shadows seemed to be swallowing her up at any moment.

How embarrassing.

But what should we do now?
Since Kuronuma Yama is already dating Hatsukano Ryo, he definitely cannot continue with him and must not betray his only friend.

Return the 50 yen to him and pretend nothing happened.

At night, Shirakawa Tao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. The unpleasant creaking sound of the old iron bed echoed repeatedly.

The text that was repeatedly deleted and revised remained in the message box and could not be sent, and finally disappeared in the backspace cursor.

October 10th, Thursday.

After the autumnal equinox, the time of sunrise gradually becomes later.

The sky was getting light, and the pink color of the clouds had not yet faded. Shirakawa Tao, who had not slept all night, tidied herself up, walked out of the room with a watering can, and stood in front of the white flower pot in front of the corridor railing.

The fine mist of water is sprayed, and the tender green catnip gathers into water droplets, presenting a colorful scene.

Turning her head to glance at the closed door of the apartment next door, she bit her lower lip lightly, hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind. She put down the watering can in her hand and walked to the door of Hei Numa Fang.

Bend your fingers and knock on the door with your knuckles.

A few minutes later, the door opened, and a sleepy-eyed Kuronuma appeared in front of him, wearing only a pair of pants. He asked in a grouchy voice, "Do you know what time it is?"

"It's not even 7 o'clock yet, and I'm just about to make breakfast."

Shirakawa Momo withdrew her gaze from his muscular upper body, looked sideways at the catnip in the flowerpot, and said unsurely, "I thought seriously about it last night. After you and Liang started dating, our relationship can no longer continue."

"So what?" Hei Nuya saw her guilty look, delicate face and obvious dark circles under her eyes, and her bad mood immediately dissipated in the cool morning air.

Cats are indeed cute - he smiled playfully, curious about what Shirakawa Momo was going to do. After all, the relationship between the four members of their band was really complicated.

The original 1 million yen given by the system has already made up for the 100 yen spent and there is still some left. Shirakawa Momo also promoted his relationship with Hatsukano Ryo, and he has 50 million yen in pocket money every month - he will not lose out if he agrees to anything for her.

Besides, Hatsukano Ryo also asked him to take care of Shirakawa Momo's feelings, but it is also fun to make things difficult for the cat.

"I can return the 50 yen to you. Nothing happened. But I only have 20 yen now. I will return the rest to you slowly."

Shirakawa Momo looked down at her toes, her black sneakers scraping against the ground in a tangled manner. "Or, before you break up with Liang, we can be friends first. I can have you come to my house for breakfast and prepare a lunch box for you as a friendship fee."
