Tokyo Soft Rice King.

"Well……"

Shiori's words dragged her best friend into the fray, since Moe was also one of the actual participants in this incident, and the only new member of the "impure" group.

"Ah, I wasn't talking about you, Mengmeng..."

Makoto squinted and retorted.

"Shiori, isn't this just a clear case of double standards? You're so strict with us, but so lenient with Moe."

Shiori, hands on her hips, retorted without batting an eye.

"How many times have you done this before! But this is Mengmeng's first time!"

"That's why it's so amazing! I thought I was pretty ruthless with Ming, but I didn't expect Mengmeng to be so unpretentious, she's actually quite fierce..."

Makoto looked up at Moe and gave her a thumbs up.

"Mengmeng, I'm really impressed with you now!"

Kuroba Akira couldn't help but look at Moe, who had already pressed her forehead against the table, her ears turning bright red with embarrassment, feeling like her head was about to burst into flames.

But Makoto still wouldn't let her off the hook, and sighed with admiration.

"Ming, your back pain is probably caused by Mengmeng. Pretty impressive, huh? Even with the newbie aura, that's quite an achievement!"

Kuroba Akira's lips twitched as he listened.

Is this something to brag about? And why does Makoto look so smug?

But Mengmeng... does she become unrestrained and outgoing during that time? I really want to see!

Kuroba Akira felt it was such a pity that he lost consciousness, especially since it was Mengmeng's first time, such a precious moment!

The class monitor said after making a move in the game.

"Alright, Makoto, stop bullying Momo. It's her first time, so it's normal for her to lose control of her emotions a little."

Makoto asked curiously.

"So, Xiaotong, did you lose control the first time too?"

"Hehe, guess what... Hmm, Makoto, you've lost again. There's no chance of a comeback."

"Damn it... I'm not playing Othello anymore! It has no skill involved at all! Let's play next!"

The two, who had been rivals since childhood, seem to have somewhat returned to their old rivalry, probably because they were vying for position with Kuroba Akira.

Ziyin also offered a gentle word of comfort.

"There's no need to be ashamed of this kind of thing. My first time was even more... intense than yours, Mengmeng."

She was even willing to reveal her own experiences, and Ziyin became much gentler towards Moe.

Kuroba Akira clicked her tongue in amazement... Even if it was just acting, it was already incredible that she was willing to treat her 'enemy' kindly.

Then, Ziyin crossed her arms and said to her.

"So lift your head up, and don't forget that you have to hand it over yourself."

After being reminded by Ziyin, Moe realized that she still had some underwear that she was going to wash, but Ziyin had kept and packed as a gift.

For Moe, this was probably something even more embarrassing than the experience itself; she felt like she was about to die of shame.

After all, when he offered it up, Kuroba Akira was unconscious with his eyes closed, but now he is awake... Moreover, handing that filthy thing over to Kuroba Akira is tantamount to handing over his 'evidence of the crime,' which is equivalent to admitting his crime.

But... I have to hand it over! I need to face my feelings!

Aizen Moe mustered her courage, raised her head, took out the panties, and handed them to Kuroba Akira.

"Um! Kuroba-kun, this...this is for you!"

The overall color is light blue with a touch of blood red in the middle. It's a pair of panties with double-sided ties, and it's even packaged in a vacuum-sealed bag.

"Ziyin said she wanted to leave this as a keepsake for you, Kuroba-kun..."

"..."

Kuroba Akira glanced at Shion and then at the class monitor. Both of them had smiling expressions, which made his expression stiffen.

Have they already shared their private collection with everyone?

Now, it seems like everyone's consensus is that these perverse interests are out of the question...

Akira Kuroba still feels hopeless, but he gives up and immediately changes his mindset, feeling indifferent.

Fine! You guys won't even leave me alone when I'm sleeping! Well then, I'll just openly be a pervert too!

"Thank you, Mengmeng. I really like it and will keep it for the rest of my life."

"One, a lifetime... um... well, that's good then... I was worried you'd find it dirty, Kuroba-kun..."

Aiyuan Menghui's face lit up with joy, and the corners of her mouth turned up uncontrollably.

Even if it's a bizarre collection, for Mengmeng who likes him, being remembered by Kuroba Akira in this way for a lifetime is something that makes her incredibly happy.

Then Moe saw Makoto blowing on the spoon that was about to reach Kuroba Akira's mouth to cool it down, and suddenly her eyes widened. She then stood up and bowed repeatedly in apology.

"Ah! Kuroba-kun, you were eating. I suddenly pulled out this, which probably made you lose your appetite... I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry!"

"It won't affect my appetite. In fact, it feels like it could be a side dish."

"Side dishes... Hehehe... Oh, I see... Mine will work too..."

"Don't underestimate yourself! Those lace-up panties are so sexy! Looks like you're pretty daring with your underwear, Mengmeng?"

The panties soaked in holy water were also a rather daring style. Perhaps it's because Moe usually wears a long skirt as her school uniform, so she's not worried about her underwear being seen, which is why she can wear such daring underwear... Hmm, it also shows that Moe is a repressed pervert.

"Huh?! I bought it because it was cute. Well, yes, it's a lace-up panty, you can just pull it off, it's really sexy and convenient..."

This brought the discussion back to the usual atmosphere of 'how to draw something more erotic'.

Great, that should prevent any awkwardness.

As for side dishes... I'm not referring to side dishes that go well with rice, Kuroba Akira isn't a vampire.

"You can't actually eat it. If you want to eat it, go eat the real thing. This is a meaningful souvenir and it should be included in the catalog."

To prevent Kuroba Akira from doing anything inappropriate, Shion immediately confiscated the 'Aizono Moe's panties' from Kuroba Akira, then carefully sealed the bag and put it in her bag.

"I will keep it for now, and later I will help you frame it and put it in your collection."

It seems like you, Ziyin, care more about that collector's book than I do now...

Moe also came to her senses, her shyness faded considerably, and her emotions stabilized a lot. She spoke sincerely to Kuroba Akira.

"Thank you so much this time, Kuroba-kun."

I was suddenly thanked.

Why?

Because you helped open the abalone?

Is this something that should be thanked for?

Isn't this a privilege only for handsome guys?

Ah, so I really am a handsome guy?

Kuroba Akira's thought process was completely messed up. He really didn't understand why Mengmeng was thanking him, so he responded first, and then couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, no, I should be thanking you... uh... no, really?"

"Ah, um, well, actually it's not very good..."

"Huh?! This isn't good!"

Kuroba Akira was taken aback. Could it be that kind of thing?

You often see in doujinshi that innocent girls are taken to a silver medal event by bad girls. They don't want to join, but under the encouragement of their 'friends' and the influence of the atmosphere (or maybe drugs), they reluctantly join, ultimately losing their innocence, becoming self-destructive, and getting worse and worse...

Could it be that Mengmeng was also forced?

Wait a minute? The others don't seem like the type to force her, do they? Rather... they seem like they would do everything in their power to prevent newcomers from joining.

Seeing Kuroba Akira's surprised and nervous expression, Moe realized that what she said had caused a misunderstanding, so she quickly waved her hand to explain.

"Ah! No! It's not a physical problem, it's a psychological problem!"

"Psychological problems?!"

Kuroba Akira was even more shocked.

Wouldn't that be even worse?

Will this leave her with a particularly bad experience? Will it cause her psychological trauma?

Was it my fault?! But I had no awareness or feeling at all!

Meng Hui panicked even more and continued to explain by waving her hands faster, as if flapping wings.

"No, no, no! I didn't mean to hate it! I don't feel unwell anywhere! Thanks to everyone's help and thorough preparation, I feel very comfortable! So comfortable that I'm almost in a daze!"

Shiori covered her cheeks, feeling embarrassed for her best friend. How could she have to tell her what she thought afterward? What kind of shameful play was this?

"But, well, the guilt is also incredibly strong... It feels like I've become a bad kid, done something bad... But I just can't stop... So... I'm sorry! Thank you! Thank you for the hospitality!"

Moe was clearly confused, then apologized and thanked everyone, and finally thanked them for the hospitality... Ah, she really was the one who got eaten.

What else could Kuroba Akira say? He was the one who was thoroughly enjoyed by Moe.

"Hmm... I'm glad you like it."

The number of experienced players has increased to 5.

As for the number of times... let's not count them. There's no point in counting after it exceeds a hundred, and besides, we don't even know how many times this time actually happened...

That said, when I first joined the Literature and Art Club, I invited Moe to be my personal illustrator...

I never imagined I'd actually become an illustrator...

On the bright side, with experience, Mengmeng can use her own experience as a reference for drawing, and then she will definitely be able to draw more realistically in the future, right?

So this is actually a dedication to art!

Chapter 372 Where the Heart Leads, the Red-Powdered Skull

After calming Moe down with Akira Kuroba, Shiori felt relieved and told Akira about the task he had given her before he fell unconscious.
