Mygo, are you all yanderes?

"I... I was just going to meet someone I met online..."

"Because I don't expect to make any friends in real life, I've been secretly chatting with online friends."

"We're meeting in a few days, and I'm worried I won't make a bad impression, so I'm trying to dress up a bit..."

"It's really not because I have those kinds of male friends..."

"..."

Michiyo Goto was even more moved, and she could hardly stop the tears from flowing.

"My family actually has a real friend now, sob sob..."

Volume 1, Chapter 9126: 124. Maybe he'll be infatuated with me! (25k) Lu”~

"So that's how it is...! That's great, Yili wasn't fooled by that bad boy, Daddy is so happy..."

Upon hearing Goto Ichiri's words, Goto Naoki's hair, which had been standing on end, fell back down. He gently wiped away the tears that had appeared at the corners of his eyes and, overjoyed, hugged Jimi Heng, who had just walked up to him.

"You think so too, don't you, Jimmy Heng!"

"Woof, woof..."

Jimmy Heng's eyes rolled back as he was strangled, his ears drooped into a V-shape, he pawed at the ground symbolically, and let out two painful howls.

"It's just dressing you up, don't worry about it, leave it to me, I'll make you into a super beauty!"

Meanwhile, Goto Michiyo patted her chest forcefully, tears still clinging to her eyelashes. She looked confidently at Goto Ichiri and raised an eyebrow at her.

"It wasn't for nothing that I've been so persistent in buying clothes for you; this is the moment I've been waiting for!"

"Just dressing up isn't enough! Girls definitely need to learn how to do makeup! Erli, bring me my makeup box, I'm going to give your sister a complete makeover today!"

Michiyo Goto rubbed her hands together excitedly, her eyes shining like newly opened light bulbs as she looked at Ichiri Goto. Then, she suddenly turned her head 180 degrees and made a "hurry up" gesture to Jiri Goto, who was comforting Jimi Heng who was foaming at the mouth.

She finally got a chance to dress up Goto Ichiri. She used to envy her friends who were also housewives because they could play with their children freely.

Unfortunately, my daughter is too introverted and timid; she simply doesn't want to wear any of the clothes I bought for her.

Michiyo Goto even considered abandoning the idea and turning her attention to Jiri Goto, who was still a child.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing her mother's call, Goto Jiri responded energetically and ran off.

"Huh? Wait a minute, I'm not meeting my online friend for a few days...?"

Seeing Michiyo Goto's excited eyes and strange hand gestures, Ichiri Goto took two steps back in fear, tightening her grip on the clothes she was holding, her voice trembling.

"Why today..."

"It's ok!"

Michiyo Goto waved her hand, interrupting Ichiri Goto, a wicked smile playing on her lips, her eyes practically overflowing with excitement.

At this moment, Goto Ichiri was a treasure trove that had never been discovered before in her eyes, while she was a pirate who had been sailing the seas for a long time.

"One mile, and this is what you call a drill?!"

"Mom, here you go!"

Suddenly, she heard light footsteps. Just then, Goto Jiri returned and handed the exquisitely packaged dressing box to Goto Michiyo, her tone carrying a hint of self-satisfaction.

"Well done, Erli!"

Without turning her head, Michiyo Goto reached out and grabbed the dressing case, then used her other hand to clamp down on Ichiri Goto's wrist like an iron clamp.

"Wait a minute..."

"Time waits for no one, Yili!"

Before Goto Ichiri could even utter a plea for mercy, Goto Michiyo grabbed her hand and dragged her up the stairs. Her slippers slammed heavily on the steps, and Goto Ichiri's cries of pain mingled with the muffled thuds from the stairs.

"I will amaze everyone!"

After returning to her room, Goto Michiyo closed the door tightly, then turned around and looked at Goto Ichiri, who was holding a dressing case and walking over to her with a panicked expression.

"No, don't do it!!!"

Goto Ichiri's screams echoed above the Goto residence.

........................

After that, Ichiri Tou couldn't remember much. She only knew that she had experienced inhumane torture, but she had no idea what the specifics were.

"……Uh?"

5 When the fragments of consciousness returned to her body, she didn't know what time it was. All she could see was a bright incandescent light hanging from the ceiling, making her eyes hurt.

Goto Ichiri stood up blankly, her beautiful, jade-like eyes filled with an indescribable daze.

She turned her head blankly, looking at the clothes scattered on the ground and the dressing box quietly placed to the side. She blinked, then looked down at her own body.

6 Her original white short-sleeved shirt and pajama pants had been changed at some point and were lying diagonally to the side. What she was wearing at the moment was a piece of clothing that didn't look very familiar.

Three lovely lace embroidery adorns the cuffs, subtly revealing slender wrists. A small bow is tied with a red ribbon from the neck down, the soft white fabric complementing her already fair skin.

"I...survived?"

4 “…Ah!”

Her gaze fell on the small mirror on the table. With a hint of nervousness and anticipation, Goto Ichiri slowly crawled to the table and picked up the mirror with trembling hands.

I felt her heart pounding as she closed her eyes and exposed her face in front of the mirror.

After a long while, she tentatively opened one of her eyes and looked at her reflection in the mirror.

"...Is this me?"

Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar face reflected in the mirror, Goto Ichiri seemed to forget to breathe, and his other eye involuntarily opened.

She touched the mirror, her tone filled with disbelief.

The mirror shimmered under the incandescent light, reflecting the girl's refreshed appearance.

Her long pink hair, which originally fell to her shoulders and covered her eyes, was carefully combed and gently tied with a pearl hair accessory, revealing her delicate eyebrows and eyes just right.

Her already fair skin appeared even more translucent with the addition of light makeup, resembling the snow and ice of Hokkaido illuminated by moonlight. Although her lips were pursed due to nervousness, a light pink lip gloss was still visible.

"……hey-hey……"

The silence in the room was broken by a strange laugh. Goto Ichiri was holding a mirror, his shoulders twitching, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turning up, and his fingers constantly stroking the mirror surface.

"Wow, I can look this good! Hehe..."

Goto Ichiri fell into narcissism.

"Wow, that's amazing! Modern makeup..."

"If that's the case, I should be more confident next Wednesday, and they won't doubt my identity as a guitar hero then..."

She seemed to be lost in her fantasy of becoming the center of attention when she met Kusano Akira and the others next Wednesday, dressed like this.

"Very good, I'll go with this look next Wednesday... no, I'll go with this look tomorrow...!"

"Who knows, he might become infatuated with me...!"

Goto Ichiri clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and a burning flame ignited in his eyes, as if he could already see himself surrounded by Kusano Akira and those intimidating girls under the spotlight.

Volume 1: Chapter 127, Section 4025, Part 3. A Mischievous Heart (Lu 2k) 々￠

"...I guess I'll just forget about it."

As Goto Ichiri thought of Kusano Akira's teammates whom she had met by chance on the train that day, the confidence that had finally resurfaced vanished again.

The flame that had been faintly burning in his eyes was extinguished with a tearing sound.

Blaming himself for his overconfidence, Goto Ichiri picked up his phone, which was lying to the side, and sighed.

It's just because of the power of cosmetics in today's society that she's become so complacent. No matter how much she changes, she can't compare to those girls who are radiating light.

Thankfully, I woke up in time. Otherwise, if I had gone to RIG in that state, I probably would have been in serious trouble.

“Hmm? This is…?”

With lip gloss still clinging to her fingertips from when she narcissistically touched her lips, Goto Ichiri shook off her lingering thoughts and turned on her phone.

The screen's deep blue light reflected in the depths of her pupils, and the time displayed—a new message that had arrived half an hour ago—caught her attention.

As she expected, Kusano Akira and Yamada Ryo continued chatting for a while after she left, discussing at length Kusano Akira's date with his friend the next day.

"Live house, haunted house, and... private messages?"

To her surprise, besides the post asking for help, a red dot appeared on her phone screen—Kusano Akira had sent her a bunch of private messages.

Her fingertip hovered over 'private messages', and after hesitating for a while, Goto Ichiri hugged her phone, quickly glancing left and right.

Only after making sure that she was alone in the room and that her parents, sister, or dog were not there did she feel safe enough to crawl into her little space, which was a converted wardrobe.

The moment the cabinet door closed, the light from the incandescent bulb was completely shut out from this small space. Goto Ichiri curled up in the cabinet, which smelled of mothballs, and the familiar darkness and sense of security enveloped her.

"Safe!"

After whispering something, Goto Ichiri leaned against the wall behind him, holding his phone in both hands, letting the blinding light tear through the silence.

The light shone on her slightly trembling eyelashes, and Goto Ichiri's trembling fingers opened her private messages.

"..."

The girl's fingertips unconsciously traced the edge of her phone. The cold light from the screen illuminated her face. After seeing Kusano Akira's message, her mouth opened slightly, and then the corners of her lips uncontrollably curved into a soft arc. A subtle smile was hidden in her eyes, rippling across her face.
