Gao Songdeng looked at the unfamiliar Xiangzi with an embarrassed expression and confusion in her eyes. Her pupils began to tremble, as if she was trying to control her emotions.

Li Xi tutted his words, rushed forward, and grabbed Toyokawa Xiangzi's collar, "Xiangzi, what's wrong with you!"

"Sir, please remain calm."

Toyokawa Shoko spoke in a panic, as if she didn't recognize Riki. Her voice trembled slightly, but she remained polite and restrained.

Xiangzi gently held Lixi's offending hand, hoping to ease Lixi's emotions.

"Li Xi, forget it! Let her be." Su Shi put his arm around Li Xi's shoulders from behind and persuaded him very tactfully.

"But!!"

"She has nothing to do with us anymore. Let's go. We have more important things to deal with." Su Shi forcibly pulled Li Xi into the living room and pressed her on the sofa.

Xiangzi, relieved by this, breathed a sigh of relief and frowned slightly at Gao Songdeng who was still staring at her. "Sir, please take a seat as well. Don't stand anymore."

"Xiao Xiang!"

Takamatsu Deng suddenly seemed to be off the thread and tightly grasped the hand that Toyokawa Shoko extended to him.

"Xiaoxiang, who is that?"

"I'm just a maid of the Nagasaki family. You've got the wrong person."

Xiangzi lowered her head, hiding her expression completely in the shadows. There was a hint of indifference in her voice, as if she was deliberately keeping a distance.

"Xiao Xiang..." Gao Songdeng's hands were still clenched, trying to wake Xiangzi up.

Seeing this, Toyokawa Shoko smiled bitterly and helplessly led Gao Songdeng into the living room. "Sir, please don't bother me anymore. I still have a lot of work to do."

"Deng, don't bother with her." Li Xi finally calmed down. She held Gao Songdeng's hand and shook her head at Deng.

"But..." Deng wanted to say something, but she read very complicated emotions in Lixi's eyes, so she let go of her hand, "Yeah."

Takamatsu Deng finally let go of Toyokawa Shoko and slowly sat between Goto Ichiri and Riki.

"Deng...are you okay?" Goto Ichiri asked Xiang very worriedly. She was also a little confused about the current situation.

She knew that Shoko Toyokawa lived in Nagasaki's house, but this situation was very strange.

Goto Ichiri was a little confused.

Why did Xiangzi, who was my deskmate, become a maid in the Nagasaki family...

Moreover, Lixi, Dengdu and Xiangzi seemed to be very familiar with each other, but Xiangzi seemed to not know them at all...

What exactly happened before?

"It's okay..." Deng reached out and held Goto Ichiri's hand, trying to reassure the latter.

Seeing that everyone had stopped pestering her, Toyokawa Shoko finally breathed a sigh of relief. She took out a rag from the sink, squatted on the ground, pressed the rag with both hands, and then raised her butt.

The whole person moved forward like an arch bridge, wiping the floor of the entire flat.

Her figure moved back and forth in front of the Mygo people sitting in the living room, as if everything had nothing to do with her.

Su Shi looked at the crowd that had finally calmed down, picked up the tea in front of her again, and took a sip. Her movements were graceful and natural, trying to calm herself down in this way.

"Actually, I called everyone here today because of Mu..."

Ding-dong-

At this time, the doorbell of Nagasaki's house rang again, interrupting what Su Shi was about to say.

"right away."

Shoko Toyokawa tidied herself up, walked to the door very gracefully and opened it.

But when she saw the person coming, her face suddenly froze.

"Tsk..."

Mortis looked at Toyokawa Shoko with an unhappy expression, his brows twisted into the shape of a "川" character, and his eyes revealed a deep disgust.

"Motis, go in quickly, or I'll have a video call with Bai Ye."

Behind her, Yamada Ryo held a new mental diagnosis report in one hand and a mobile phone with Bai Ye's photo on it in the other, pushing Mortis forward like a prisoner.

"Welcome... welcome... to the Nagasaki family."

Shoko Toyokawa turned her head away, not daring to look at Mortis, and could only give a trembling welcome.

Mortis ignored Toyokawa Shoko and walked towards the living room. When passing by Shoko, he bumped her hard with his shoulder, causing Shoko to take a half step back.

"What's this new cospy? Interesting."

Yamada Ryotsu rubbed his chin, looked at Toyokawa Shoko in maid form with a playful expression, and couldn't help but sigh.

However, Yamada Ryo had more important things to do. When she saw that Toyokawa Shoko didn't reply, she walked towards the living room with a new report.

"After another diagnosis by the hospital's specially invited experts, we can be 100% certain that Ruoye Mu does not have any mental problems."

Yamada Ryo turned the report to everyone and said it with great certainty.

"Really?" After taking a look at the report, Su Shi lowered his head completely and picked at his nails in frustration.

[What should Mu do then? Is he left with Bai Ye? ]

"Mental problems!?" Goto Ichiri and Takamatsu Deng looked up at Wakaba Mutsu with puzzled expressions on their faces.

"What's going on? Su Shi, what happened to Mu?"

Li Xi on the side also became nervous. She stood up and asked Su Shi anxiously.

Su Shi sighed and turned her gaze to Yamada Ryo.

Yamada Ryo understood what was going on. She raised the phone with Bai Ye's photo on it and pushed Mortis in front of everyone as if threatening him. "Please introduce yourself, Mortis."

Being watched by everyone, Mortis raised his proud head, his mouth curved into a crescent shape, and said, "Hello everyone..."

"My name is Mortis, I am Mu's alter ego. Mu has been protected by me."

"What is going on?" Goto Ichiri was the most confused. She seemed to have become an outsider and felt that the whole incident had nothing to do with her.

"Everyone, just listen to me..." Su Shi drank her black tea while slowly telling everyone what information she knew.

From Ruoye Mu and Motis, to the previous Ku Lai Xi Ku, she told everyone all the details without reservation.

Everyone was listening intently, and the living room was so quiet that only Su Shi's voice and the occasional clinking of teacups could be heard.

But no one noticed that Shoko Toyokawa, who was wiping the floor, also stopped what she was doing and listened secretly with her ears perked up.

"So, everything was because of this guy Toyokawa Shoko, and Mu was replaced." Li Xi sorted out the complicated information provided by Su Shi and came to a conclusion that made her very angry.

After understanding everything, she looked angrily at Shoko Toyokawa who was still wiping the floor silently with her head down.

"Oh, yes, it's all because of Xiangzi. I hate Xiangzi the most..."

"Also, Mucai wasn't replaced, he was protected by me!"

Mortis explained happily to Lixi, and also defended himself.

Deng showed a very distressed expression, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were full of confusion and bewilderment.

She was a little confused, and these complicated relationships and things gave her a headache.

Yamada Ryo was very relaxed. She smiled slightly, picked up a small cookie, took a light bite, and enjoyed the atmosphere.

However, Goto Ichiri next to Liang was not so calm. She kept fiddling with the biscuit that she had already taken a bite of, her eyes full of anxiety.

[Everyone looks miserable]

At this time, Lixi finally stood up. She moved a little anxiously, as if she could no longer bear this silence.

She walked out of the living room quickly and stood in front of Shoko Toyokawa who was mopping the floor. She leaned forward slightly and looked down at Shoko who was lying on the ground. Her tone was filled with boundless anger.

"Well, as the culprit, don't you have anything to say?"

When Xiangzi was questioned, his shoulders shook, and then he seemed not to have heard it. He still kept his head down and continued with his actions.

She shifted the rag in a different direction, trying to bypass Lixi who was blocking her way, as if deliberately avoiding the question.

Seeing this, Lixi couldn't bear it any longer. She kicked Xiangzi hard in the side and knocked him to the ground.

Xiangzi's body slid a few centimeters on the floor, making a slight muffled sound.

"Toyokawa Shoko, answer the question properly!!"

Chapter 159 Don’t kick the door, I have the key this time

45th floor, large flat.

Li Xi raised his leg and kicked Toyokawa Shoko to the ground.

The crisp sound of impact echoed in the spacious flat. Shoko Toyokawa's body slid on the floor for a distance and finally stopped.

Li Xi took advantage of the situation and grabbed Toyokawa Shoko's collar and asked politely, "Hey, Shoko..."

"Is it okay with you to beat you up now?"

Holding his aching side, Shoko Toyokawa sweated profusely as he denied, "Who is Shoko? Could you please calm down, guest?"

"I'm freezing your mother!"

Li Xi raised her palm, ready to slap Toyokawa Shoko. Her eyes were full of anger, and she wanted to vent all her resentment on Shoko.

"Li Xi!!"

Deng rushed to Lixi and hugged her from behind. Her movements were a little anxious, trying to stop Lixi's impulse.

"Deng, don't stop me this time."

"Lixi, can you please stop?" There was a hint of pleading in Deng's voice.

"No! I must wake her up!"

Lixi and Deng were locked in a stalemate, neither of them giving in. Their bodies pressed tightly together, as if engaged in a silent contest.

"Hmm~ What happened?" Kaname Rana, who was woken up, lifted the quilt covering her body and asked Yamada Ryo who was eating popcorn next to her.

There was a hint of laziness in Lenai's voice, as if she had not yet fully woken up from her sleep.

"Do I even need to ask? The fight has started! Do you want some?" Yamada Ryo excitedly shook the popcorn that suddenly appeared in his hand and shared it with Kaname Runa.

Hearing this, Lenai suddenly became alert. She quickly sat up and watched the show with Liang, "Hmm~ Interesting..."

"By the way, one popcorn is 500 yen."

"Hmm, boring..." Lenai pursed her lips and her eyes dimmed again.

On the other side, Mortis, who was originally suppressed by Yamada Ryo, came to Riki and Deng.

She lowered her head and smiled, then asked the lamp, "Deng, why did you stop Lixi? Xiangzi, aren't you just reaping what you sow now?"

"But..." Gao Songdeng was about to explain when he was suddenly interrupted.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room to clean up." Shoko Toyokawa, who was at the center of the storm, hurriedly got up, lowered her head to avoid everyone's sight, and hid in Bai Ye's room.

"Huh? Xiangzi, who told you to leave?!" Li Xi wanted to get angry again when he saw this.

"Calm down, Riki..." Goto Ichiri also joined the team that stopped Riki, assisting Takamatsu Deng, "Listen to what Deng has to say first..."

At this time, Li Xi came back to her senses and noticed that Gao Songdeng was holding her waist tightly with both hands, "Deng..."

"Deng, why did you stop me just now?" Li Xi's words suddenly became much softer, and he asked Gao Songdeng in a slightly weak voice.

Deng let go of Li Xi, took a few steps back, and stood up slightly, but lowered her head very deeply. Her voice was low but full of determination.

"I don't want Lixi to end up like this... I don't want you to suffer..."

"Mu's problem... Xiangzi's problem... there must be a better way to solve it."

Gao Songdeng raised her head and looked up at Li Xi, tears of pleading appeared in the corners of her eyes.

Her eyes became more gentle, trying to influence Li Xi.

"lamp..."

Li Xi, who had regained some of his sanity, looked at the weak light and felt touched. He then spoke very calmly.

"Light, I refuse."

"..." Deng looked at Li Xi, his mouth slightly open, his pupils slightly contracted, and he didn't know what to say.

"Deng, I don't mean to be in pain. I'm already in pain..."

"Mu's matter cannot be allowed to go on like this..."
