I have no regrets about my 2D world!

"Well, can we go see the rabbits?"

"Of course you can, and Yoshino, you don't need to ask me, you are the protagonist today."

"Well...I...got it." Pulling the brim of her hat again, Yoshino said softly.

"Looking at it this way, it really looks like a little rabbit." Looking at the white rabbit squatting outside the cage and touching the inside and running to Yoshino, coupled with Yoshino's clothes with a rabbit hood today, Bai couldn't help but sigh.

Just when Bai Ye was about to go over and touch the two rabbits, one big and one small, he caught a glimpse of two unexpected people out of the corner of his eye.

"San San, what does this big cat look like?" A brown-haired girl teased her friend next to her.

"Sawa! Stop teasing me." The black-haired girl seemed a little embarrassed and annoyed, and reached out to hit her friend.

"I heard you say that only very special cats would come out with you, but you took me to the zoo to see this...this big cat." The black-haired girl felt helpless.

Normally, due to the strict family rules, the girl couldn't keep a cat at home, but she loved cute cats so she would often sneak out at the invitation of her friends. But she didn't expect this to be the case this time.

"Hey, Sansan, you seem so bored, so I brought you here. And after we get out, I'll take you to a new cat cafe. The kittens there are all very beautiful."

"Really?" The black-haired girl's eyes lit up.

"Then let's go quickly." He said and pulled his friend forward.

"Hey, don't be anxious, don't be anxious. It's still early..."

Um...

Bai lowered his head and thought for a moment, leaving a trace of his aura on the two of them, and his gaze returned to the big and small rabbits here.

Chapter 37: Yoshino's Date A Live

"Shion really likes little rabbits." Looking at Shion who had been playing with the rabbit for quite a while, Bai couldn't help but feel emotional.

"But there are more than just rabbits in the zoo."

"Yes, I like it...because rabbits are very cute." After touching the rabbit's head and watching the rabbit leave, Yoshino stood up and patted the dust around her clothes.

"When I was still in the hospital, my mother gave me a rabbit hand puppet and said, 'If I'm not around anymore, then she can be Yoshino's hero and protect her.'"

“I was very grateful to my mother for taking care of me, so I’ve loved rabbits ever since.”

"But, as for heroes... we already have them." Yoshino looked up at Shiro, but didn't say what she had been thinking.

"So, Shion, do you want to buy two and keep them?"

"Let's not do that." Shion shook her head.

Although she likes rabbits very much, she has no intention of raising one. She also doesn't know how to take care of rabbits, and her mother is often busy with work and not at home, so even if she buys one home, there will be no one to take care of it.

"So, are we going to look somewhere else next?"

Seeing Shion shook her head, Bai didn't bring it up again. He knew Shion's mother was often not at home, but seeing Shion seemed to like it, he asked.

Of course, you can actually keep it at home, but it's uncertain whether it will become a dish on the table one day.

"Well, let's go." Shiro took the initiative to come over and hold Bai's hand, and the two walked side by side.

"What kind of animals does Bai like?" Shino suddenly looked up at Bai and asked.

They'd known each other for so long, but Shiro had never seen Shiro raise any animals, not even with them on a daily basis. Could it be that he didn't like them?

"Me? I should like cats more." Bai was suddenly stunned, and then memories flashed in his eyes.

I once adopted a stray cat for free. I had saved some money from my part-time job at the time, and wanted to treat myself, so I bought some snacks for a midnight snack.

On the way back, he encountered an orange cat lying next to a trash can. Its fur was tangled, and even its meows were weak. Bai, still a bit kind at the time, peeled a few sausages from his late-night snack and placed them there.

Watching the cat cautiously walk up to him, pick up the sausage, and hide in the distance to watch him, Bai just smiled, watched the cat finish eating, and then walked over again.

But this time the cat didn't run far away, but ate right at his feet. Bai wanted to reach out and touch it, but he was afraid of scaring the cat, so he gave up the idea.

Seeing that the cat had almost finished eating, Bai stood up and continued to go home. However, when he got home, he found that the cat had followed him. The man and the cat just stood at the door and stared at each other.

After a while, seeing that the cat didn't want to leave, Bai took the cat in. Because of its hunger, the cat was very light, and you could feel its bones when you first touched it.

The cat shivered slightly when being picked up, but seeing that Bai had no intention of harming it, it relaxed. Bai then gave the cat a quick cleanup. It looked much cleaner and tidier. He also named it "Autumn," since they had met in autumn.

The already poor life was made worse by the addition of Qiu, but Bai didn't care. As long as he had food, Qiu wouldn't starve. The two lived like this for a while.

But one day, Qiu disappeared. Bai was a little worried and looked for her everywhere, but he couldn't find her. Then Bai overheard a neighbor say that an orange cat had given birth to a litter of kittens, but no one wanted them.

Upon hearing the news, Bai wanted to go over and check it out. However, when he got there, he only saw some orange hair. He stood there for a long time without saying a word, until a gust of wind blew away the hair from nowhere, and then Bai turned and left.

Bai hasn't adopted any animals since then.

"Bai must be feeling very uncomfortable..." As Shiro talked about the past, Shiro held her little hand a little tighter.

"No, maybe it has found a better place." Bai Wan'er smiled. Although he felt a little uncomfortable at the beginning, he later figured it out. Maybe...'Qiu' just found a better place.

"..."

"Shiro, let's go somewhere else."

Bai looked at Shion with some confusion, then smiled with relief.

"Okay, then let Yoshino lead the way."

"Um..."

"A rabbit..." After seeing the two leave, a blonde girl appeared at the position where Yoshino was before. She looked at the happy rabbit in the cage, wondering what she was thinking.

.......

"How about Bai also come and ask for a lottery?"

"Okay."

In a shrine, Yoshino brought Shiro to a box filled with bamboo sticks.

Bai didn't believe there were any gods in this world, and even if there were, he wasn't sure if they could defeat him. But since Shion had invited him, it wouldn't hurt to just draw a root fortune.

After a series of procedures, they each received a bamboo stick and handed it to the shrine maiden for interpretation.

"Congratulations to both of you, it's auspicious." The witch smiled and returned the untied bamboo sticks to them.

"But this gentleman's is Daji, and this lady's is Zhongji."

"Sir, you will have very good luck today. Everything you want to do will go smoothly. Miss, although your sign is also auspicious, it will only be half successful. You still need to wait for the other half."

"Thank you, Miss Miko." Bai smiled lightly and looked at the somewhat depressed Yoshino.

"It's okay, Yoshino. Miko-san said we just have to wait."

"Okay, I understand." Yoshino nodded.

"But Yoshino, can you tell me what you want to do? You're the protagonist today, so I'll find a way to satisfy you no matter what."

"Not yet... not yet!" Yoshino suddenly looked a little nervous and hurriedly put away the bamboo sticks.

"Shiro, let's go get some rest. I'm a little tired."

Well, although it was tempting to complain, "How could a spirit like Yoshino be so tired like this?", Shiro still managed to hold it in. It seemed like Yoshino was indeed having issues. Could this bamboo stick really be useful?

Bai looked at the bamboo stick in his hand that represented good luck and put it away.

"Okay, it's almost noon..."

The two of them left along the path they had come in. After they left, the blonde girl reappeared.

"Good luck..." Thinking about the answer from the witch just now, the blonde girl looked at the bamboo stick in her hand, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Chapter 38: What Shiono Was Thinking About

"Damn, I'm really curious about what they asked for."

"Unfortunately, we were a bit far away, and Xixian didn't hear it."

Origami: "But they look very happy, so they should be fine, right?"

Nanashi: "Even though my brother doesn't believe in God, he still came here for Yoshino?"

"There's nothing we can do. Although Bai is not very emotionally sensitive, he still has some emotional intelligence. So you have to work hard to get what you want." Erya sighed. As the first elf who came into contact with Bai and fell in love with him, she knew Bai quite well.

At first, Bai had shown great interest in these elves, even going so far as to approach her. But as time went on, Bai seemed to have lost that interest. And no one knew what she had been busy with recently.

When they lived together, Bai usually wouldn't leave the house unless it was important to do something. Even if he did, he'd be back quickly. But lately, Erya had noticed Bai leaving the house more often, but she had no idea what he was doing.

Erya also tried to use her angel to see some information, but it showed nothing about Bai. So Erya gave up the idea.

But Erya wasn't worried. Given her current relationship with Bai, even if Bai really wanted to leave, he wouldn't forget her. But the same couldn't be said for others...

"Well, if you all have nothing to do, please don't stand here any longer. You are disturbing others." The witch looked at them with a distressed expression.

They looked around and saw that the originally narrow path was almost completely blocked by them standing there. People around them looked at them in surprise.

"..."

Everyone: “Sorry!!!”

"Where do you want to go this afternoon, Yoshino?" Shiro asked Yoshino while drinking a drink in a restaurant.

"Um... can we go to the playground?"

"Of course, I haven't been to an amusement park yet." Bai's eyes lit up in agreement.

He had been interested in the amusement park for a long time, but unfortunately, he had no money and no one to go with him, so the idea had been put on hold. So now that Yoshino brought it up, he agreed so readily.

Of course, as long as Yoshino mentioned it, he would be willing to go anywhere.

"Hmm..." Seeing Shiro's delight, Shino thought he was just pretending to be so kind to her, and she lowered her head once again in embarrassment. After all, it would be strange for a girl like her to go to an amusement park with someone else.

It was strange, even after so much time, but Shiro's height seemed to have remained fixed, never growing. Shiro sometimes wondered if Shiro didn't know how to control her spiritual energy to grow, but when they'd casually brought up these things during conversation, Shiro seemed unconcerned.

"Okay, if you lower your head any further you'll end up in the bowl." Seeing Yoshino's shy look, Bai couldn't help but tease her.

Hearing Bai's teasing, Shion suddenly raised her head, revealing her pink cheeks that were already extremely red. The shame in her eyes could no longer be hidden. The beauty of this moment made Bai lose his mind for a moment.

"white!"

Shiro's soft cry brought Bai back to his senses. Thinking of how he had been absent-minded just now, Bai suddenly started thinking again.

Should I stop treating Yoshino like a child? If we consider her age, she's not that young anymore, is she? Feeling a slight pang of punishment, Shiro was startled awake again by Yoshino's voice. However, this time, her voice didn't seem as angry as before.

"Shiro, are you thinking about something?" Yoshino's voice was filled with a hint of shyness.

Shiro's eyes just now resembled those in the comics she had seen at Niya's. Thinking of those 18+ comics at Niya's, smoke seemed to come out of Yoshino's head, and mosquito coils appeared in her eyes.

"Yoshino? Yoshino?"

Should we say these two are truly destined to be together? Shiro's mind wandered off earlier, so is it Yoshino's turn now? However, looking at Yoshino like this, I can't continue like this.

"Hey! Wait... wait a minute..."

Shion let out an inexplicable sound and waved her hands wildly in front of her chest.

"Not now... not now, at least... at least wait until tonight... um..."

Shion suddenly realized where she was and recalled what she had just said. She covered her face with her hands and stopped talking.

Bai looked at the people around him who looked at him as if he were scum and smiled helplessly.

"Boss, check out."

Amidst the envious, jealous, and hateful gazes of the crowd, who all wanted to send him to jail, he calmly paid the bill and walked out holding Yoshino's hand.

"Shiro, I actually just now..." As soon as she walked out of the door, Yoshino wanted to explain why she had done that just now.

But Bai shook his head slightly and interrupted her.

"It's okay, Yoshino won't hurt us."

"Yes, I certainly won't..."

"That's enough." Bai said casually with a bright smile.

Seeing Shiro like that, he knew what Shiro was thinking. There were some deviations, but it was mostly the same things. Shiro didn't care, though. After all, it was Shiro who had always been with Shiro, so if Shiro was fantasizing, the object was... him?

......

Something seems wrong?

"I understand, Shiro." Yoshino replied softly.
