I have no regrets about my 2D world!

Page 105

Iroha Tamaki, who was brushing her teeth, suddenly realized something was wrong.

"I don't remember my name being on the toiletries?"

"And after You disappeared, only my own toiletries were left there, so there was no need to put my name on them."

"Then what's the reason? Are you still dreaming?"

Iroha Tamaki felt something was wrong, but she still finished washing up patiently.

When I walked out of the bathroom, I found that Bai was already sitting at the dining table and breakfast was already set on the table.

"Are you ready? Eat something first."

Watching Huan Caiyu walk out, Bai smiled and waved, indicating her to sit down and eat.

"...Um."

Tamaki Iroha nodded slightly and sat down at the dining table.

"...I still feel like something's wrong..."

Iroha Tamaki ate her breakfast in silence while taking in the surrounding scene.

"The living room seems different, the kitchen looks clean, and the breakfast seems better than what I usually make. Mr. Bai is still the same..."

'Mr. Bai!'

"Cough... cough... cough cough cough..." Huan Caiyu's eyes suddenly widened and she stopped chewing, causing her to choke.

"Don't be in a hurry, take your time. Here, drink some water."

"...Thanks."

After tilting her head back and taking a big gulp of water, the choking feeling finally subsided, and Huan Caiyu immediately thanked her.

She put the water cup on the table and looked at Bai who was smiling opposite her. She suddenly forgot what she was thinking.

"What was I about to say? Mr. Bai looks pretty good when he smiles..."

Gently placing the cutlery on the table, Iroha Tamaki suddenly stood up, staring at Shiro.

"white..."

"Sit down and eat first."

"Oh, okay..."

Tamaki Iroha sat down again, but the scene suddenly became quiet.

"You continue eating. I'll tell you what happens."

Hearing Shiro's unquestionable tone, Tamaki Iroha nodded and picked up her cutlery again.

......

"That's it." Bai casually spread his hands and leaned back on the sofa.

Meanwhile, Huan Caiyu sat obediently opposite.

"Have Yachiyo and the others already gone back? That's fine too."

"But, Mr. Bai, am I really not dreaming now?"

After Bai's explanation, Huan Caiyu finally understood what had happened last night and knew that it was Bai who had saved them again. Although she was grateful to Bai, she still had many questions about the current situation.

For example, why was the room she woke up in just now the same as her own home? Why were her own toiletries in the bathroom? And what was going on with the familiar pajamas she was wearing?

"If it still doesn't feel real, why not pinch your arm?" Seeing Huan Caiyu still looking skeptical, Bai didn't bother to explain, but chuckled instead.

Huan Caiyu silently lowered her head, looked at her fair arm, and stretched out her other hand.

"...oops!"

In order to prevent herself from hallucinating by using too little force, Huan Caiyu used a lot of strength, which caused the area on her arm to quickly turn red.

"No, are you really going to pinch me?" Bai looked at Huan Caiyu in surprise. He didn't expect that she would actually do it.

Could it be that after eating so much, his mouth had no feeling? He remembered that food shouldn't taste good in dreams.

"Um... I just wanted to confirm." As if sensing Bai's special gaze, Huan Caiyu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Is it confirmed now?"

"Um..."

Noticing Shiro's teasing look, Iroha Tamaki's cheeks flushed slightly and she lowered her head slightly.

But then it stood up again.

"Mr. Bai... could you please tell me where You is?"

"Sigh..." Shiro sighed inwardly after hearing Iroha Tamaki's question.

"Can't you just take care of yourself first? Why did you become a witch? How did you recover? Will that happen again? Are there any side effects of changing back? You don't care about any of it."

"Well, if that's the case, then it seems like I need some serious training."

Bai's eyes suddenly turned serious, causing Huan Caiyu on the opposite side to straighten her body a little.

"I can tell you where You is, and even help you bring back those three sisters, but what can you give me in return?"

"..."

Huan Caiyu lowered her head and remained silent.

'You has been forgotten by everyone in the world except me, and even I only remembered it recently, so something big must have happened.

If Mr. Bai wants to bring You back, it will probably take up a lot of energy, so it is normal to ask for compensation.

But...I don't think I have anything to offer as a reward.

I remember Mr. Bai asked this question before, and at that time...'

Tamaki Iroha thought about what happened before and the look in Shiro's eyes at that time.

'Are you interested in me? If...'

Having made a decision in her heart, Huan Caiyu raised her head and looked at Bai. She opened her lips and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Bai.

"Don't say anything yet. Let me ask you a few questions while you think about it."

"Okay, okay."

"First question, you go shopping and find that the price of something your sister asked you to buy has increased. If you buy it according to the increased price, you won't be able to buy everything you need. What would you do?"

"I'll buy it for You." Huan Caiyu answered without hesitation.

"Very good!" Bai praised sincerely.

"Second question, if I help you bring You back and need you to pay me back, would you agree?"

"I...I will!" It was still a firm answer, but this time there was a moment of hesitation.

"Then, one last question. If the premise of the previous question is that you will never see You again in this life, will you still agree?"

This time, Huan Caiyu didn't give an answer immediately. Instead, she pondered for a long time, and finally said softly, "I will agree..."

"Very good!" Bai smiled and clapped his hands, his voice a little high, as if he was very satisfied with Huan Caiyu's answer.

And Iroha Tamaki thought that her answer satisfied Shiro.

However, the smile on Bai's face suddenly disappeared.

"In that case, I won't help you bring You back."

Iroha Tamaki stared at Shiro with wide eyes, not understanding why he suddenly changed his appearance.

Bai was indeed very satisfied with Huan Caiyu's three answers. The first one was to give up one's own interests, the second one was to give up one's own value, and the third one was to give up one's own existence.

It was a beautiful answer, so beautiful that Bai couldn't help but want to destroy it.

"Since you can give up yourself for your sister, can I assume that you, who accepted the second question, will give up me for your sister one day? In that case, what good will it do me to have you?

There are magical girls everywhere in this world, and there are many beautiful girls. There are also many girls with better figures than you and different personalities from you. So why should I put an unstable person by my side just for you, a magical girl?

You don't have to say you won't do that. At least for now, You is absolutely the most important person in your heart. If it's something You needs, you will definitely do it, right? Even if it means putting yourself in danger."

After the words fell, Bai said nothing more, but just looked at Huan Caiyu with disdain.

This kind of rhetoric might not be of much use even against Yachiyo. After all, she has already weighed her own situation, what to do, how to do it, and what will happen if she can't do it. Even if it's little, it's enough.

But for the current Huan Caiyu, it is more than enough.

They listen to their parents at home and their friends when they go out. They will agree to help as long as others ask for help. They can even ignore their own safety for the sake of others. If such people are protected by someone, it would be better. If no one protects them, once they leave this age, they will probably be surrounded by malice from all sides.

The final outcome is either that their personalities are extremely different and they become a part of the evil, or that they are still drowned in the fantasy in the end, and rarely become normal people.

As Bai has a lot of good feelings for her, he naturally doesn't want to see this situation happen, even if there is only a tiny probability.

That's why Bai planned to adjust her personality. Not to mention changing her appearance as a good person, but at least making her consider her own safety when facing a decision.

And those three questions were asked based on the fact that Iroha Tamaki didn't know much about the dialogue.

If someone like Madoka or Asuka, who knew him better, were to answer the second question, they would probably directly say something like "Shiro wouldn't do that. If he really did, it would be for that person."

Then they agreed without hesitation because they knew Bai would not do anything to harm them.

But Huan Caiyu was different. Her understanding of Bai was just from meeting him a few times and asking him a few questions. She had no way of judging Bai's character, nor could she guarantee whether Bai would really do that.

So when faced with Bai's questions and answers, she had no way of refutation.

But if Iroha Tamaki had been stumped by Bai's question, she wouldn't have spent so much time searching for her possible sister.

"Thank you for giving me a choice, Mr. Bai, but even without your help, I will not give up looking for You. Besides, if it was You, she would not let me do anything dangerous."

A smile returned to Tamaki Iroha's face. She really couldn't answer Bai's question, but that didn't mean she would give up.

The memories in her mind cannot be false, and her sister also exists. Even if Bai is unwilling to help her, it is just a matter of missing a shortcut for her, and the result will not change.

She even wanted to thank Bai for these questions, which made her more determined, and if she had the chance in the future, she might seriously think about the answers to these questions.

As for now, I am still mainly looking for worries.

"Tsk..." Bai smacked his lips softly. It was the first time he felt that this good-natured guy had such a troublesome personality.

As long as it doesn't threaten the people who are important to them, they won't react much no matter what you do.

The only way to quickly correct this kind of personality is to use extraordinary means, but Bai is unwilling to use those means.

"Wait, if I use You to influence her, will there be any unexpected situations? Although she also has a good personality, at least You often gets angry and dissatisfied. And sometimes when Denghua and Yinmeng quarrel, You will deliberately help the other one to mediate. This is much better than her."

Bai suddenly remembered You's situation. As a younger sister, Huan You has a more rounded personality than Huan Caiyu, the older sister.

He had never seen Huan Caiyu angry or anything like that. At most, she looked helpless, and most of the time she was smiling.

If her character develops in the direction of worry...it seems feasible.

And she may not refuse.

Thinking of this, Bai already had another plan in mind.

"In that case, I won't stop you. Instead, I'll give you another choice. Do you want to hear it?"

"Really? Thank you very much, Mr. Bai."

"Just call me Shiro. From now on, you'll be living with Yachiyo and investigating Rumor. If you investigate thoroughly, you'll find your sister."

"Yachiyo?"

"Yes, Yachiyo has the same goal as you, both are looking for someone, and..."

"and?"

"Yachiyo was nearly seriously injured last night while trying to protect you. Don't you plan on thanking her?"
