I loaded the dream game

Xia Zhi thought to himself, his eyes falling on the three-strand braid that was still tied behind the girl, and the light blue hairband at the end.

"You won't untie it?"

The girl shook her head slightly.

"Will it be uncomfortable to sleep later?"

Mio thought about it and it seemed like this was indeed the case, but...

"This was tied by Xia Zhi specially for me..." the girl replied in a low voice.

"I'll tie it up for you tomorrow."

Xia Zhi touched her head and said.

Hearing the boy say this, Mio hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

As the headband was untied, the long silver hair cascaded down behind the girl like a waterfall, shrouded in the faint moonlight falling from the window, exuding a dreamy and elegant light and shadow, adding a bit of unreal haziness to the girl's petite body.

Sure enough, no matter how you look at it, it's beautiful.

Xia Zhi thought to himself, feeling the atmosphere becoming quiet again, and couldn't help but yawning.

"Summer Solstice..."

In the quiet room, the girl's soft whisper was heard again.

"Ok?"

“I am very happy today.”

and so……

Mio raised her head, looked at him and continued to ask:

"Can you continue to "date" me tomorrow?"

"...as long as you like it." Xia Zhi replied. In his opinion it didn't matter.

After all, a "date" location doesn't necessarily have to be outside.

He thought so.

.......

Chapter 875: Summer Solstice has a special physique that attracts cats and heroes

After that, a few more days passed.

Perhaps it was because the interval was too short, or perhaps it was because, as Nogi Sonoko said, spiritual power was not used again, during this period Shikoku was not attacked by "Batik" again.

Inside a store in the mall, a cute 16-year-old girl with her long silver hair braided into three soft braids, wearing a sun hat and a pure white dress, was looking at the clothes on the shelves, comparing them with someone's figure in her mind, trying to find the clothes that best suited him.

Her elf-like beautiful face attracted the attention of many passing customers, but she didn't care at all.

All she cared about was one person's gaze.

But unfortunately, that person was not looking at her now.

"Mio?"

"Uh-huh?"

"What do you think of this set?"

Looking at the white and lavender dress in the boy's hand, Mio tilted her head slightly.

"Xiazhi, do you want to wear girls' clothes?"

"This size doesn't look like something I can wear, does it?"

Xia Zhi complained.

Although she came here to help him choose clothes today, this store did not seem to specialize in men's clothing. He saw this set of clothes on the road and thought it looked good, so he wanted to ask the girl's opinion.

"I think it looks good." Mio replied.

"Do you mean the one on me or the one on you?"

Considering what the girl had just said, Xia Zhi couldn't help but have such an association.

Hearing this, Mio lowered her head and looked at herself, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Although her figure is smaller than Xia Zhi's, the dress doesn't seem to be her size, right?

She shook her head and continued to help the boy with reference.

After choosing for a long time, the two finally selected a few styles.

However, due to the long delay, the plan to buy two suitable clothes for the boy had to be cancelled.

Xia Zhi didn't care, since he had brought a lot of clothes this time anyway. But Mio seemed to mind a little, until Xia Zhi promised her to come again tomorrow, then she became happy again.

Sitting on a bench in the park, Mio took out two bento boxes from her backpack, placed them on her own and the boy's legs respectively, and opened the lids.

"Today's crab rolls and fried dumplings?" Looking at the rich food in the lunch box, Xiazhi

"Well, I found some information about the cuisine of Xia Zhi's hometown on the Internet, so I wanted to make some for Xia Zhi to try."

Mio nodded and replied.

Ever since the girl tried to learn cooking a few days ago, Xia Zhi is no longer the chef in the house.

Although he had expected this, the girl's learning ability still somewhat exceeded his expectations.

In just a few days, the girl was able to completely get rid of the assistance of the bracelet and perfectly replicate the dishes she made while wearing the bracelet.

Even Xia Zhi back then couldn't match such talent, right?

After all, Xia Zhi is still a human being.

Xia Zhi thought to himself, picked up a fried dumpling and put it in his mouth. A fried dumpling flavor that he had never tasted before spread in his mouth.

...It's actually filled with cheese and strawberry? What kind of cooking style is this? He complained in his mind.

Perhaps it was because the girl’s cooking skills were so superb that even with such a strange filling, it tasted unexpectedly different?

Fortunately, I am not a fundamentalist who pursues authenticity, otherwise I probably would not be able to accept this "innovative" approach, right?

Feeling the expectant gaze of the girl beside him, Xia Zhi nodded:

"Mm, it's delicious."

Receiving the boy's affirmation, Mio smiled happily.

"Meow~"

Just as Xia Zhi was about to pick it up again, he heard a cat meowing under his feet.

It sounds very similar to the meow of my own cat, because they are both cat meows. But after raising a cat for so long, Xia Zhi can still clearly hear the difference between the meows of his own cat and other cats.

He lowered his head and saw an orange cat that had squatted at his feet at some point, looking at him with its head raised.

"……What's up?"

"Meow..."

The orange cat cast its gaze on the lunch box in his hand and meowed again in a flattering manner, as if asking for food.

It seemed as if it was attracted by the aroma of the food Mio was cooking.

Xia Zhi thought to himself, and bent down to touch its chin. The orange cat also stayed there very obediently and let him touch it, and it didn't seem to be afraid of strangers.

"It's a cat."

Looking at the orange cat being close to the boy, Mio showed a curious look on her face.

This was her first time seeing a real cat, and it was indeed as cute as what she saw in the videos and pictures.

"Like it?"

After satisfying his urge to touch a kitten after a long time in the other world, Xia Zhi withdrew his hand with satisfaction and asked the girl.

Mio shook her head slightly: "I prefer the summer solstice."

I'm not a pet. Xia Zhi couldn't help but complain.

"Meow~"

Feeling the boy's touch leaving, the orange cat looked at the lunch box in his hand again and called out to Xia Zhi, as if urging him to feed it.

·· ···Request flowers· ·······

Xia Zhi thought about it, looked at it and said, "Equivalent exchange."

"For each dumpling, you need to exchange it for the same weight of meat."

It doesn't sound like an equal transaction at all. After all, strictly speaking, what Xia Zhi had in his hand were vegetarian dumplings.

The orange cat also tilted its head and meowed, with a hint of doubt in its voice.

"I mean the flesh on you."

"..."

"Yeah! Found it!"

A strange girl's voice came from a distance.

"Taromaru~!"

Isn't this the name of a dog? Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

On the other side, the orange cat shuddered when he heard the name, and immediately hid behind the boy, as if trying to hide himself.

But if you look carefully, you can find that it actually paused halfway and changed its direction. It can be seen that it originally wanted to escape, but it changed its destination because it was reluctant to leave the lunch box that it had not yet eaten.

.... ...... .......

"It's really your name?" Xia Zhi turned around and looked at it and said.

It turns out that there are people in this world who are worse at naming than me?

"Meow……"

The orange cat's voice was full of grievance.

"Ah! Don't run!"

Seeing the orange cat disappear behind the boy, the girl's voice became anxious.

Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, Xia Zhi raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a girl with short red hair running towards him anxiously.

Behind her, there was a girl with long black hair sitting in a wheelchair, pushing the wheels slowly and following behind her, while shouting "Tomono, slow down" to remind the girl in front.

"Huh... That's great, he didn't run away..."

Seeing the orange cat hiding behind the boy and not running away, the girl called "Tomono" breathed a sigh of relief. Then she seemed to realize something and bowed deeply to Xiazhi and Mio.

"I'm so sorry, Taromaru, for causing you trouble!"

It wasn't that I caused any trouble, it was more like I got the meal for nothing.

Xia Zhi thought to himself, looked at the red-haired girl in front of him and asked, "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Well...we are here to take it home."

She explained, and then seemed to remember something.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself." The girl continued with a bright and lively smile:

"My name is Yuuki Yuna! This is my name!"

……Several.

Chapter 876: The first meeting with the brave girls went smoothly, right?

"Youna, wait for me!"

The black-haired girl said as she pushed the wheel until she finally came to the side of the group.

Seeing that the girl named Yuna finally stopped, she breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the two people opposite her and was slightly stunned.

"……so beautiful."
