mygo, but Cthulhu

Before she could finish her weak words, the gate-shaped galaxy in the sky suddenly pulled them over. Chu Hua's deformed body suddenly exploded under this pressure, and large groups of rats crawled out of her flesh and blood, rushing towards Toyokawa Shoko frantically.

But they still had Chuhua's face on their heads, each face was full of greedy and crazy love, and the voice was hoarse and shrill.

"Xiaoxiang, don't be afraid! Come to my side, I will always protect you and stay with you!"

Before Shoko Toyokawa could break free from her panic, the pain in her lower abdomen became more and more severe. She covered her stomach and couldn't help but kneel on the ground. Then the gate-shaped galaxy enveloped the mice, and her vision began to become confused.

"Hahahahahaha!"

The shrill laughter that did not belong to her or Chuhua echoed in her ears, piercing her soul and penetrating her consciousness, making her feel only the most primitive fear.

"do not want!"

She suddenly opened her eyes and quickly got up from the bed, her body trembling and almost convulsing, cold sweat had soaked her pajamas, and her consciousness was still confused.

"Xiao Xiang?"

Chu Hua was awakened by her scream and wanted to touch her anxiously. However, Toyokawa Shoko was still afraid of her because of the nightmare scene. She subconsciously stepped back quickly and almost fell off the bed.

"Wait, don't come near me, Chuhua, let me calm down..."

She gasped for breath and managed to squeeze out a sound, and Chu Hua hesitated for a moment and stopped moving, his purple eyes worried.

Look at her,

"Xiaoxiang, are you okay?"

"I, I'm fine."

After a while, Xiangzi finally shook off all the images in her mind. She took a deep breath to calm herself down and forced a smile apologetically.

"Sorry, I just had a nightmare and I'm a little confused..."

"No need to apologize, Xiaoxiang, I'm glad you're okay now."

Chu Hua smiled gently, she came closer and hugged Xiangzi gently, her tone was very gentle,

"Xiaoxiang, don't worry about anything. I will always be by your side."

"Thank you, Chuhua."

Feeling her warmth, Xiangzi regained his composure, but at the same time he couldn't help but smile bitterly at his own reaction.

It's just a nightmare, but it's ridiculous that I was scared like this.

"Xiao Xiang, what exactly did you have a nightmare about? Can you tell me about it?"

Chu Hua patted her back soothingly, and Toyokawa Shoko hesitated and shook her head.

"I can't remember clearly now, Chuhua, you don't have to worry about it."

She lied. She still remembered every detail of the nightmare. Those real and weird scenes were still lingering in her mind. However, she didn't want to make Chu Hua worry more about her, so she chose to fool him.

"Since you don't remember, Xiaoxiang, you don't have to worry about it. It's just a nightmare."

"Yeah, I understand."

Toyokawa Shoko nodded in response to Chuhua's comfort, and sighed softly, trying to suppress her uneasiness.

Although this nightmare was very strange, she didn't have the energy to pay attention to other things, and could only ignore it as Chu Hua said.

After making sure that she seemed to have calmed down a lot, Chuhua finally felt relieved. She hugged Xiangzi gently, then got up to wash up.

Xiangzi looked at her back and sighed silently. She shook her head to get rid of the messy thoughts in her mind, picked up her mobile phone to check the time.

However, when the screen lit up, she saw a bank text message with a long string of zeros.

"Hello, you have a large amount of funds transferred in, the specific amount is 1000..."

Shoko Toyokawa was stunned. She closed her eyes tremblingly, trying hard to suppress her dizziness. After a while, she carefully opened her eyes again and nervously clicked on the message board.

That message was not her hallucination. Her account, which could only be described as pitiful, had an astronomical amount of money added to it. The little money she had was squeezed to the point where it was almost invisible.

Shoko Toyokawa tried her best to control her confused emotions and counted the numbers bit by bit. She counted them over and over again in a trance, and finally she was able to confirm in disbelief how much money she had received.

...one billion yen,

Even for the Toyokawa family, this was definitely not a sum that could be easily taken out. She had never been able to possess so much money in the past. She had just woken up this morning and saw so many zeros lying in her account without any warning.

Instead of feeling happy, Shoko Toyokawa felt a certain numbness. She was absolutely certain that this must be a scam, and she called the bank.

...But it was completely beyond her imagination. The bank customer service only gave a positive answer. When Xiangzi continued to ask in confusion, the other end only guaranteed that the money was absolutely real and reliable, and the account that transferred the money to her had been cancelled not long ago, and they did not know the identity of the remitter.

When Shoko Toyokawa hung up the phone, she felt confused and dazed. After sitting on the bed for a long time, she reopened her bank account and stared at the numbers.

After her bastard father's business failed, he never recovered. The debts he owed were piled up like a mountain. They completely destroyed her original life, but now she can repay them easily.

As long as she wanted, she could live a better life than before. She could become the carefree Shoko Toyokawa again, no longer having to endure harsh work, no longer having to endure fatigue and swallow bitterness.

...But who would give her so much money? Has she encountered anything unusual recently?

When she thought of this, her eyes subconsciously fell on her lower abdomen.

If there is anything strange, this is probably it. Could this be related to remittances from unknown sources?

Shoko Toyokawa couldn't be sure, but the next moment she saw another new message coming in from a strange number she didn't recognize.

"This is a small token of my gratitude, Ms. Toyokawa."

Chapter 4 Chu Hua's Concern

“…A thank you gift?”

After a moment of silence, Shoko Toyokawa slowly squeezed out a voice. She frowned and quickly sent a message to ask what was going on, but after waiting for a long time there was no response.

She dialed the unfamiliar number, but after a moment she only heard a tone indicating that the number had been cancelled.

"It's like this again,"

She took a deep breath, tried to suppress her irritability, and thought seriously.

There was no way she would receive so much money for no reason. Apart from the inexplicable pregnancy, she hadn't encountered anything unusual recently. It seemed that the 10 billion yen was related to this.

What's going on? Could it be that the perpetrator's family is wealthy and is sending me money to keep me quiet? But if that were the case, they should have been more specific... I don't understand.

Shoko Toyokawa sighed and shook her head. She looked at the shocking numbers in her account, closed her eyes and tried hard to suppress the throbbing in her heart.

No matter what, she would never use the money, otherwise she would be selling her body in disguise.

The unknown account had been cancelled and she had no way to transfer the money back, so she should just treat these numbers as if they didn't exist. They never belonged to her in the first place.

She clenched her fists so hard her nails pricked her palms, reminding herself what to do, and silently repeating calmness and self-control in her heart.

She had to admit that when she saw this astronomical figure, she felt an inappropriate greed and urgency in her heart. She wanted to take the money for herself. After all, all her difficulties would disappear if she did so.

But she was still sober. These thoughts were just minor delusions. The doll named Toyokawa Shoko would not fall to that level. Her pride and self-esteem could easily tear these thoughts apart and discard them.

Toyokawa Shoko exhaled slowly, opened her eyes and met the purple eyes full of concern. Chuhua was looking at her with some worry at this time.

"Xiaoxiang, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Chuhua, you don't have to worry about me."

Xiangzi shook his head silently, and Chuhua's expression froze for a moment, then turned into a gentle smile.

"Xiaoxiang, you look very tired. If you have anything, you can tell me. We are friends, right?"

"Thank you, Chuhua. It's really nothing. I just haven't recovered yet."

She pursed her lips and finally just shook her head slightly.

She knew that Chu Hua cared about her, but she had no time to think about it now and could only suppress her guilt in her heart.

"I'm leaving now, Chuhua. Thank you for letting me stay for one night."

"Xiaoxiang, you don't need to thank me,"

Chu Hua smiled and shook his head slightly, holding her hand seriously.

"I'm very happy that you can come to my house to rest, Xiaoxiang. If you need anything, you can come over anytime."

While speaking softly, Chuhua couldn't help but hope for a positive response from Xiangzi. Even though she had already guessed Xiangzi's reaction, she still couldn't help but hope so.

But until the end, Xiangzi just avoided her gaze, nodded silently, then opened the door and left.

Since that unknown force can give her so much money so easily, it doesn't matter whether she lives with Chuhua or in that broken house. They can take her away if they want. It's better not to let Chuhua get involved in their own affairs.

At least that was a good thing; her pride wouldn't tear at her consciousness anymore.

Xiangzi muttered these words to himself as he slowly walked away. At the same time, Chuhua kept staring at her back with complicated feelings. She imagined the scene of Xiangzi turning around and waving to her, but this scene ultimately only stayed in her mind and did not become a reality.

"Xiaoxiang... must have encountered something,"

When the figure disappeared from his sight, Chu Hua muttered to himself thoughtfully, his brows furrowed a little bit.

She could sense that Xiaoxiang didn't really want to rely on her too much, but last night she suddenly asked her to stay overnight... While she was happy, she was also a little confused.

But since Xiaoxiang didn't say anything, she certainly wouldn't bring it up on her own initiative. Chuhua tried her best to release her tenderness, hoping that her most valued friend would confide in her.

...But Xiaoxiang still didn't say anything. After all, she has always been very strong-willed, so it is understandable that she doesn't want to expose her vulnerability.

Chu Hua sighed softly, her thoughts becoming increasingly chaotic. She shook her head, trying to shake off the chaotic emotions, but suddenly a sharp piercing sound rang in her ears.

"hiss,"

The familiar feeling of swelling and pain in the head and the indescribable strange sound appeared together. Chu Hua closed his eyes and tried hard to suppress the pain, holding on tightly to the door frame next to him.

She had been feeling this discomfort for some reason lately, and the check-up couldn't reveal anything. The doctor just said that she might be too tired and suggested that she get more rest.

Of course, she didn't tell Xiangzi that she couldn't let her condition affect her avemujica practice, and the frequency of this pain was not frequent and would not affect her life for the time being.

"Squeak,"

But at the same time, she suddenly heard the sound of a mouse behind her. She frowned and turned her head sharply, but did not see any shadow of a mouse.

There was not a single mouse in the mousetraps and sticky traps; she had hoped they would be useful, but they ultimately became nothing more than unsightly decorations.

...Why is it that even though Mana lives with me, I have never heard any mice squeaking these days?

This thought suddenly emerged in her mind, and a cold feeling spread throughout her body. Chu Hua gritted her teeth, shook her head vigorously, and tried to ignore this strange feeling.

No, I don’t have time to care about these things now. Xiangzi’s matter is the most important. I have to find out what trouble she has encountered.

Wait for me, Xiangzi, I will definitely help you.

Chapter 5

"Boom, boom,"

"Please come in,"

When the knock on the door sounded, the doctor answered subconsciously, and then he saw a blonde girl wearing a mask walk in.

"Excuse me, what is it..."

"Doctor, I want to ask you, did you receive a patient named Toyokawa Shoko yesterday?"

The blonde girl interrupted him eagerly, and the doctor nodded subconsciously.

"Indeed, she did... Are you her friend?"

"Yes, I am her friend."

She sat in the chair opposite him, staring at him straight in the eyes.

"I came here this time to find out about her physical condition. Should she be fine?"

"Ah, well, our hospital has a rule that we can't disclose a patient's condition at will. You'd better..."

The doctor shook his head slightly, trying to refuse, but the next moment he saw the blonde girl quickly stuff an envelope into her pocket.

"Doctor, please be flexible. I really want to know how she is doing."

"Well... since you're her friend, it's okay to tell you."

The doctor weighed the importance of the envelope and after some hesitation, he chose to speak.

"She's pregnant, but she seems very surprised about it. I advise you to comfort her more."

"..."

However, he did not receive a reply. The doctor looked up in confusion and saw that the blonde girl's eyes had widened to the limit, her purple pupils trembling and looking like they were about to pop out of her eye sockets.

Even though she was wearing a mask, the doctor could still see that her face was distorted. The extremely prominent disbelief and anger seemed to tear her skin apart alive, turning her into a horrifying beast on the spot.

"Um, are you okay?"

The doctor couldn't help but swallow his saliva in fear, and the next moment his eyes blurred, and the blonde girl instantly rushed in front of him, staring at him with a ferocious look.
