Aspiring to be a girl in a band

Hmph, saying dogs are man's best friend, I don't think so.

Arakawa Kirika showed a disgusted expression again.

But Liu Bachuwu, Lin Siliu, scratched the back of her head, seemingly finding Arakawa Kirika's reaction quite interesting.

"Um... Wuhua, are you very concerned about this child?"

Ai asked, somewhat uncertainly.

She knew, of course, that Arakawa Kirika liked cats but disliked dogs, but... Arakawa Kirika's expression was really strange.

ha?

What nonsense is this pink idiot spouting again? How could I possibly care about something like a dog?

...That's what Arakawa Kirika thought to herself, but as she watched Aine approach step by step with the dog in her arms, she ultimately did not back down.

"Ow!"

As soon as they approached Arakawa Kirika, the little white dog barked excitedly again.

"Hmm...it seems it also likes mist flowers."

Ai Yin tilted her head and said, at which point she also noticed something was wrong.

If it were the mist flower she encountered when she first transferred schools, let alone small animals... Aine felt that if the mist flower from that time were placed at a fire scene, even the flames would have to avoid it.

Back then, Kirika was practically a human ice cave... Now, she's just a cute and beautiful girl with a slightly wicked personality.

Wuhua... has really changed a lot.

Aine thought to herself, and seeing the somewhat hesitant expression on Arakawa Kirika's face, she chose to continue.

"Dogs always stick out their tongues like this when they see someone they like, and they also wag their tails."

As Aine spoke, she put her hand to the puppy's mouth, and the puppy gently licked Aine's finger.

"Look... dogs are actually very cute animals. You'll see once you try it, Wuhua."

As Aine spoke, she held the white puppy up to Arakawa Kirika's face again.

Arakawa Kirika had a cold expression, but she inexplicably reached out her hand.

Arakawa Kirika's aversion to dogs was not unfounded.

She clearly remembers almost being bitten by a dog when she was a child.

From that time on, she developed a strong aversion to dogs.

As for the vicious dog that tried to bite her when she was a child... given her personality, she would naturally have wanted it euthanized, but in the end she didn't do it and just gave it to someone else.

...Startled from her brief reverie, Arakawa Kirika realized...that she had actually reached out her hand to the dog.

A fear from the depths of her memory surged into her heart.

She bit her lip lightly, thinking to herself.

If you dare to bite... I'll kill you and eat your flesh.

Then... Arakawa Kirika closed her eyes.

Then, she felt a cool, moist, and slightly rough sensation on her fingertips, not pain.

When she opened her eyes, the dog had indeed only gently licked her fingers.

Arakawa Kirika quickly withdrew her finger and continued to look at Aine with disdain.

"Come here."

Arakawa Kirika said coldly.

Aine paused, somewhat confused, but still did as she was told, moving closer to Arakawa Kirika.

Then Arakawa Kirika vigorously wiped her licked fingers on Aine's collar until not a trace of saliva remained.

Huh?! Aine was a little flustered.

But then I thought about it again.

The fact that Wuhua used her clothes to wipe her hands means that Wuhua considers her clothes to be "clean," and further, that Wuhua thinks she is "clean" as well.

win!

Aine was always good at comforting herself, so she laughed out loud happily.

After wiping her hands, Arakawa Kirika took out a small stack of Fukuzawa Yukichi's notes from her bag and prepared to hand them to Aine.

"Huh? What does Wuhua mean by this... I can't accept it."

Ai Yin quickly waved her hands and backed away.

"Just take it when I tell you to."

Arakawa Kirika said somewhat impatiently.

"You need to change your clothes if they get dirty, and... getting this guy vaccinated will also cost money."

Eh?

Aine recalled Arakawa Kirika's words, then blankly accepted the money.

"Alright, now hurry up and get this stupid thing out of my sight."

Arakawa Kirika saw Aine standing there dumbfounded and immediately shouted.

But Aine remained in a daze, and seeing this, Arakawa Kirika simply turned around and left.

After a short while, Ai Yin finally came to her senses as if waking from a dream.

The shock that Ai Yin received in that short period of time far surpassed anything she had experienced before.

Because... Arakawa Kirika's adorable demeanor just now was just like a tsundere character from an anime.

Moreover, it's the kind of character who develops to the later stages, transforming from arrogant to coquettish, with a lovable yet contradictory demeanor.

Volume 1: Chapter 171 Xiao Xiang

【Mist Flower, save me.】

Arakawa Kirika was stunned when she saw the message displayed on her phone screen.

She quickly unlocked her phone and typed a line of text rapidly.

[Lannai, where are you? What happened?]

Arakawa Kirika narrowed her eyes, a fierce glint in her pupils.

If anyone dares to touch her things, she guarantees she'll make them wish they were dead.

【I'm about to be unable to go to school.】skirt five seals seven (eight) eight orders lacquer pulley 1

When Renai's reply arrived, Arakawa Kirika stared at the words and froze on the spot.

Okay, it seems I misunderstood something. Judging from this passage, Lena shouldn't have any personal safety issues.

However… “I’m about to be unable to go to school anymore”, what does that mean? Arakawa Kirika finds it a bit hard to understand.

Just as I was about to ask Lena to explain, her next message arrived.

"My teacher said my grades are so bad that the earth is going to collapse, and I have no chance of getting into Yuqiu."

……

Arakawa Kirika was a little surprised, but not by Rakuna's grades.

After all, if a cat that is used to being free and unrestrained and is obsessed with music can still maintain good grades, Ai-yin would probably bang her head on the ground on the spot.

But poor grades aren't a big problem.

Anyway, Hanasaki River will accept anyone, and as long as Rakuna chooses to go directly to the school, she will definitely be able to attend high school.

But Rakuna said... she wanted to go on to study at Haneoka.

This approach of choosing the long way around and the difficult path over the easy one is not something Lena would make.

After this holiday, it will be the last semester of the year, and for Lena, it will also be the last semester before she goes on to higher education.

That's probably why this concern arises.

However, why is Rakuna so insistent on choosing Yuukoka?

Although thinking this way might be a bit narcissistic, it's probably the only reason.

Arakawa Kirika replied.

Does Lena want to go to school with me?

Lena replied instantly.

[Well, if Kirika were still in the Moon Forest, I would probably have given up, but... now that Kirika is in Haneoka, there might still be some hope.]

This means...

Is this cat trying to catch up on its grades in its final semester?

Although it's not impossible, Arakawa Kirika highly doubts whether that willful cat can really calm down and study.

So she replied.

“If Lena just wants to go to school with me, it’s okay if she doesn’t have to work so hard.”

Arakawa Kirika dotes on this cat so much that she immediately decides to take care of all the matters related to Rakuna's college entrance exam, even if Rakuna submits a blank paper.

But Ranna quickly replied to Arakawa Kirika with a pouting, resentful emoji.

【no!】

First came a simple refusal, followed by a rapid string of words.

Grandma said that if you want to get closer to someone you like, you can't do it without putting in your own effort.

Arakawa Kirika remained silent for a while.

The person Lena was referring to as "the one she likes" should be herself, no matter how you look at it.

This... shouldn't be considered narcissism, right?

There's nothing we can do about that.
