Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

Yulan wouldn't be surprised if something strange happened next.

The fox's usually lively tail was now drooping listlessly, lacking its usual energy.

My clothes were tattered from the previous rescue operation... What if I were to meet the same fate...?

Forget it, I feel like I'll be exploited by the company for some weird reason.

You have to understand that Xi Lan has only saved up one month of vacation in the past few years, so you can imagine how outrageous the previous exploitation was.

Although if you just sweet-talk Ms. Jade, you can easily get holidays and overtime pay...

But it feels like doing that would mean losing something precious.

Let's just forget about this.

She put her hands behind her back, calmed herself down, and then decided to go and see if Hoshi had calmed down with Himeko's help.

However, the alarm sounding again, along with an even more intense tremor than before, indicated that the antimatter legions were not leaving so easily.

She had just walked to the vicinity of the control center when she was dragged and pulled away by the people from the Starry Sky Train to another location.

I only managed to catch a glimpse of Estella's back.

He was immediately dragged away.

Xing seemed to think that the speed was a bit slow, so she unceremoniously hoisted Xi Lan onto her shoulder.

His previously dull eyes suddenly sparkled, and he even gave a thumbs-up to March 7, who turned around with a confused look on his face.

"Okay, packing successful, let's go now!"

Even the people on the Starry Sky Train could detect a hint of excitement and fervor on Xing's otherwise indifferent face.

.....

Has she really lost her memory?

"No! Put me down first?! Hey! You?!"

Xi Lan, who was forcibly carried on this person's shoulder, could only watch as she drifted further and further away from the control center.

What happened after meeting Xing was a mental exhaustion that Xi Lan had never experienced before in all her years.

"At least tell me what happened?!"

Even with Xi Lan being carried on his shoulders, he rarely disregarded his image and shouted out loud.

"I'm sorry, Miss Yulan, let's talk about some things after you're safely on the train."

Himeko looked apologetically at Yuuarashi, who was completely unaware of what had happened, but her steps showed no sign of stopping.

"At least we won't do anything weird to you."

Please note that we do not include Hoshino in the Himeko section at this time.

This guy, who claims he doesn't remember anything, seems to have an indescribable fervor for this Miss Yulan.

Himeko glanced at Hoshino with her light golden eyes, which held a hint of excitement. She couldn't help but recall how Mitsuki and Danheng had described how they had picked up this person.

While the sudden appearance of an individual on the space station is strange, judging from Ms. Ji Xilan's attitude...

The other person seems to have some connection with this person.

However, she seemed somewhat resistant, and didn't seem very willing to acknowledge the relationship between the two of them.

Himeko isn't a particularly curious person; it's normal for everyone to have their own secrets.

In that brief moment of distraction, the group of people who were running at full speed were already close to the vicinity of the Star Train.

Once you get to that place, once you reach that place...

Unfortunately, fate always seems to play tricks on people.

As they approached, uninvited guests followed them, flying around like prey.

How could Himeko and the others not see such a gigantic monster?

As a skilled taunter, March 7th picked up his bow and arrow and confidently shouted at the monster.

"Come down!"

Perhaps this kid really is a jinx, or perhaps his sarcastic skills are truly genuine.

The monster actually flew towards the people standing on the bridge.

Only Xi Lan, who had her back turned and could barely see something flying around, was still confused about what was happening.

Xi Lan, who was put down in an instant, was about to say something when she saw the Doomsday Beast launching an attack.

"Hide until the battle is over."

Xing, holding a baseball bat, immediately shielded Xilan, who was unable to fight in the situation, behind her.

The gray-haired woman was currently facing away from Xi Lan, giving the impression that she was gone forever. "If we can win, I want to go back to our hometown with you..."

Even though he was skilled at shielding people, March 7th couldn't help but complain: "Don't make promises you can't keep now!"

"...Good luck to you guys. Although there's not much I can do in this situation, I'll do my best to support you."

As for what Xing said, Xi Lan pretended not to hear it.

"Keep going, Xing, don't get hurt."

Let's cheer this guy on anyway.

Xi Lan hurriedly ran to the outer edge of the attack range, watching Xing's familiar stance as he held the baseball bat.

Memories from my childhood that were almost forgotten slowly came back to me when I saw such familiar things.

But looking at the figures of those people fighting together on the Starry Sky Train, it seemed like it wouldn't be so bad for her to join them.

It's much better than being by her side, isn't it?

After all, this poor, helpless, and weak fox couldn't even make a decent living on her own; she relied entirely on clinging to the coattails of Lady Emerald.

....Why.

After all that trouble today, even if I don't go back, I'll probably be bombarded with communications by those two little guys, Toppa and Shajin, and have to go back anyway.

It would be better for you to be sensible and go home early.

Hey...

I seem to have sighed more times today than I have during this period.

Completely unaware that her emotions would fluctuate wildly in a few minutes, Xi Lan kept glancing in the direction of the Starry Sky Train.

When Xi Lan saw the Doomsday Beast get its comeuppance, its tail unconsciously started swaying.

Then, when they saw Xing and the others almost get hurt, the fox ears drooped down because of their owner's mood.

The next second, Xing rushed in front of March 7 and blocked the final attack of the Doomsday Beast. Xi Lan could no longer sit still.

That idiot!?!

She! How dare she?!

Even if you've lost your memory, don't be so stupid as to rush in like that!

Xi Lan gritted her teeth and rushed over.

How could the indifference I thought I had before be real?

She cares, of course she cares a lot.

If Xing really got into trouble... No, no, Xi Lan, you can't think like that...

...That Xing guy is tough and resilient, he'll definitely be fine...

Xi Lan gritted her teeth and rushed to their side at almost her fastest speed, not caring whether the fluctuations emanating from the person's chest would hurt her.

All she wants now is to go to Xing's side.

Just as her hand was about to touch Xing's arm, it was intercepted by a short brown-haired man.

He tapped her forehead with his cane; with just a gentle movement, the pent-up energy around them calmed down.

Unconsciously, her body fell into Xi Lan's arms.

Xing, who was still vaguely conscious, looked at Xi Lan, who was so panicked that she was about to cry, before she lost consciousness. She opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't have time to say anything.

I thought this... would make you happy...

But it seems... I've accidentally upset her again, little fox...

Eh?

...Why did I say "again"?

With a flood of questions swirling in her mind, Xing finally fainted in Xi Lan's arms.

Chapter Sixty-Seven: You Like Trash Cans Too?

When Xing woke up again, she found that most of her vision seemed to be blocked by something.

When Xing came to her senses, she realized that she was resting her head on something soft and... quite comfortable.

She turned her head slightly, pressing her face against someone's lower abdomen. The warm breath hit her, causing her to tremble involuntarily.

"you're awake?"

Enveloped in the familiar scent, Xing nodded and gave a vague reply, at least not seeming to really want to leave the soft lap pillow.
