I loaded the dream game

She thought so in her heart, her eyes filled with confusion.

What should I do...?

"Tohka."

She looked up blankly when she heard the voice, but saw the boy looking into her eyes and inviting her seriously.

"Will you go on a date with me?"

"……Eh?"

.......

Chapter 969: The Meaning of Holding Hands

"Dating……"

The girl murmured the word, tilted her head slightly, and a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.

"Dating, what do you mean?"

It's a similar feeling to when I first faced Mio.

So that's it... Is this the similarity between "mother and daughter"? Xia Zhi thought to himself.

"Are you thinking about something weird?" The girl's eyes became alert.

"Nothing."

Xia Zhi thought about it and decided to help her understand from another perspective.

"So-called dating is actually a way to enhance feelings and make the relationship between two people become better."

Hearing this, the girl continued to ask, "Xia Zhi, do you want to have a better relationship with me?"

"Don't you wish?"

It’s not that I don’t want it, but…

Under the current circumstances, isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this?

After a moment of silence, she seemed to remember something, raised her head again, looked at the boy for confirmation and asked:

"Can we save the world by just doing what you say?"

Why do you sound as if you are threatened?

When Xia Zhi was complaining in his heart, he saw the girl seemed to have made a decision. She put her eyes close to him and said in a serious tone:

"Then, 590 let's go on a date!"

"Well, even if we're not dating..."

Feeling that she seemed to have misunderstood something, Xia Zhi wanted to explain, but the girl shook her head vigorously, looked into his eyes and repeated seriously: "Let's go on a date!"

…Well, it’s not a big deal anyway.

Xia Zhi raised his head and looked at the sky which had already darkened completely.

Although we are going to have a date, it is obviously a little too late today. How about we talk about it tomorrow?

“Start now!”

However, the girl said this.

"There's no need to be so anxious..."

"Now, now now now!"

Okay, okay, let’s do it now.

There are methods for night dating. Not to mention at night, even dating in the early hours of the morning, I have practical experience.

...In this regard, we should also thank Sonoko, right?

Xia Zhi thought to himself.

But, it's still the same problem

As a newcomer, he is not familiar with this world of time and space. Where should he start the first step in a date?

"How about starting with holding hands?" Miss Time Elf suggested in her mind.

"I meant the location."

Xia Zhi raised his head and wanted to ask Shixiang for advice, but saw that the girl on the other side had already stood up impatiently and hurriedly drank the cold milk coffee.

However, she drank the drink in a hurry, but her eyes lit up after she finished it.

"Xiazhi, this is delicious!"

It turns out it’s not that I don’t like it, but that I’ve never drunk it.

"If you like it, I'll buy it for you later." Xia Zhi replied.

The ones made in the store must taste better than those made from instant drinks, right?

"Oh……"

Indeed, "dating" is still important now.

The girl thought to herself.

On the other side, Xia Zhi set his sights on the spiritual outfit she was still wearing and asked, "Let's not talk about this for now... Can you do that? Reconstruct your spiritual outfit into other clothes."

If you walk down the street like this, people will think you're cosplaying and it'll attract a lot of attention, right?

"Hehe, it's a piece of cake for me~"

The girl said, snapping her fingers lightly.

Then, a burst of light particles tightly wrapped around her body as if to replace it, and when the light faded, the clothes on her body had been reconstructed into a different style.

But this outfit seems so familiar.

Xia Zhi: "... not to change to my set."

"......?" The girl tilted her head in confusion.

"You wait."

Xia Zhi thought about it, took out his phone from his pocket, found a full-body photo of Xia Zhi in casual clothes, and handed it to her.

"Just change it to the one she's wearing."

As for why it was Xia Zhi, it wasn't because of the similar body shape. After all, Xia Zhi is a little bit smaller... In terms of body shape, Kaguya is more similar to the girl.

The main reason was that the girl was the one who had the most photos on his phone. He could find a lot of them just by flipping through them...most of them were taken by her in the past when she "forced" him to take them, saying things like "it would be embarrassing if I didn't have one or two photos of girls on my phone when I went out."

She didn't even think about how often she usually went out.

On the other hand, Tohka's focus didn't seem to be on the clothes, but on the cute black-haired girl in the photo and asked, "Who is she?"

"A model who cooks." Xia Zhi answered casually while distracted. (Xia Zhi: A-choo!)

"?"

"…No, she is my sister."

Xia Zhi came back to his senses and replied.

The girl nodded thoughtfully: "Really? No wonder it looks like Xia Zhi."

Thank you, you are the first person to say this. Xia Zhi complained in his heart

I don't know how she could tell that. Apart from the similar hair and eye colors, there's nothing similar between me and Natsuori, right?

...Could it be that, because they have been together for a long time, their looks have gradually become similar...that is, they have the so-called "husband and wife look"?

He shook his head and didn't dwell on the issue any further.

At Xia Zhi's signal, the girl snapped her fingers again.

With a flash of light particles, she changed into the same summer clothes as Xia Zhi.

After finishing all this, the girl looked at the remaining paper cup in her hand, with a hesitant look on her face.

"Just throw it into the trash can next to you." Xia Zhi reminded her.

This doesn't feel like a date, it feels more like taking care of a child, he thought to himself.

When it comes to raising children, I have more experience.

Substituting the girl's thoughts for Mio...Xia...Eluke, he soon found the feeling.

"Let's go, let's go for a walk around here first." He said, touching the back of Tohka's head and gently holding her hand.

The girl lowered her head and looked at the two people holding hands with a curious look:

"Is there any special meaning in doing this?"

"...to prevent getting lost?" Xia Zhi replied.

"?"

The girl tilted her head, and a question mark appeared on her head again.

"In short, it means that it won't be so easy to separate." Xia Zhi thought for a while and continued.

...Won't they separate?

I don't quite understand, but... it feels pretty good.

The girl thought to herself, a smile appeared on her face, and she held his hand tighter...

.......

Chapter 970: The girl starts to like dating

The city has its own prosperity at night.

Under the neon lights, the sidewalks are full of people relaxing and having fun. Pedestrians are coming and going in an endless stream. The surrounding businesses are lined up one after another, and the colorful lights decorate the surroundings, making it seem like being in a sea of ​​light.

"Wow……"

Looking at the bustling and colorful scene around her, Tohka opened her mouth slightly and let out a small exclamation.

She followed Xia Zhi closely and began to understand what the boy meant by "preventing someone from getting lost".

Once separated, it is indeed very easy to never find them again.

"Xiazhi, follow me closely!"

She turned around and spoke to the boy beside her as if she was facing a great enemy.

You should follow me closely, right?

Xia Zhi thought about it and held her little hand even tighter.

The touch on his hand was small and soft, and a little cold at first, but after holding it for so long, it had become the same temperature as his hand.

Generally speaking, girls' body temperature is indeed slightly lower than men's, and elves are similar to humans in this respect.

"Xiazhi, what's that over there?"

The curious voice of a young girl came to my ears.

Xia Zhi glanced in the direction she pointed and replied, "Human."

Tohka puffed up her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

Of course she knew it was a human, she just wanted to ask what that particularly fragrant thing was.

“That’s the crepe stand.”

Xia Zhi replied.

At the same time, a gurgling sound came from my ears.

Their eyes met and the girl blinked at him.

"How long has it been since you last ate?" Xia Zhi asked.

“I don’t remember.”
