I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

"Where are we going to play tomorrow?"

Chitose fell asleep with this thought in mind.

These few days are a short holiday between simulations, and she only needs to be responsible for expressing her thoughts and having some gentle interactions with her friends in real life.

Because this will make her super satisfied and happy.

It was foggy in the early morning, and there were good morning greetings from the three little ones on my phone.

Qiansui leaned against the bed and replied to everyone one by one. By the way, she also pulled Su Shi into their small group of three yesterday.

Kyomoto was still asleep and talking in her sleep. Her cute mumbling made Chitose feel soothed.

"Lixi said we should go shopping together today."

That idiot Su Shi also wanted to come, but she regained her sanity and finally decided to stay at home with her mother.

As for the lights?

After Deng said good morning to her, there was no news from him. He was probably trapped in the warm penguin quilt and took a nap.

This is Gao Songdeng's daily routine, and her characteristics as a small fish have long been apparent.

After Kyomoto Youyou woke up, Chitose prepared to set off:

"I'll be home before lunch, my friends have reserved my morning time... Hey, Jing, is there anything you want to eat? I'll buy it on the way back."

"Hey! Sister, you idiot."

Kyomoto placed his hands on his lithe waist and muttered in a child-like tone:

"Sister, you've grown up too... No, you've really grown up! You used to be so easy to bully and didn't have any friends, but how come you've changed so much since entering high school?"

Yes, how come it has changed so much?

Kyomoto could not see Chitose's helpless expression, and at the same time, Kyomoto would never know what was in her sister's mind as she stayed by her side.

The final touch was a gentle peck, a symbol of their brief separation.

"Be good at home and take a nap. Children need more sleep to feel comfortable."

Qiansui curled her hair and suddenly thought of some very hellish things.

When she was a child, she often bought eye patches for Kyomoto, ahem... this was to make Kyomoto not feel that he was different from others.

But later her family fell into poverty and she was forced to give up this somewhat extravagant hobby.

Now that I have money, should I buy some eye masks to take home?

Sometimes Kyomoto's dim eyes really need a smooth eye mask.

……

"Eye patch...eye patch, why do all the eye patches online look so..."

Not cute.

"Hey, it seems I can only learn some handicrafts during the next simulation. I haven't mastered any new skills in the last two simulations, and my guitar at home is almost gathering dust."

Ring, Cafe, Chitose sat at a table near the large French windows, lost in thought.

She thought that if she and her friends really formed their own small band in the future, she could be the guitarist or bassist.

But isn’t it too limiting to only know two instruments? If other people want to play bass and guitar, I can make room for them.

Why not learn keyboard?

"Your matcha parfait! Have a nice day."

The lovely waitress came and left, leaving only a cup of matcha parfait on the table.

Qiansui didn’t dare to order it before because she had no money. But after she became rich and was treated by Lixi and Deng a few times, she fell in love with this dessert.

The matcha parfait in Ring is a summer Kyoto-style dessert. It combines the refreshing aroma of matcha, the delicate texture of tofu mousse, the sweetness of red bean paste, and the unique taste of shiratama balls, bringing a cool and slightly bitter summer experience.

“I want to come and eat here with my friends in the summer.”

Savoring it in small sips, Chitose waited for her girls to pick her up to go shopping.

"call…"

First, a breathing sound was heard, and then a little head popped out from the opposite side of Qiansui when she was looking at her phone.

"Matcha parfait, huh."

"Eh?"

The lazy girl with the same white hair appeared here at some point. Chitose turned off his phone and found that the girl was sometimes staring at the matcha parfait in front of him, and sometimes looking at him.

She seemed to be overwhelmed.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

"Huh... well, here's the money. Want to exchange it for... matcha parfait."

The girl with heterochromic eyes lazily raised her head, crawled out from under the table, and pressed most of her body on the surface.

"Huh? What is that?"

Even the knowledgeable Chitose Noshiro didn't understand what the child said. She pointed uncertainly at the matcha parfait in front of her:

"Oh? You mean you want to exchange money for this matcha parfait I once had?"

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

Ch186. The Strange Story of a Shiina Casualty

There are some differences between the world that Kaname sees and the world that other children see.

People always say that she is as casual as a cat, but Lenai is not interested.

She just likes people or things that make her feel interesting.

When she was very young, her grandmother ran an exhibition hall. At that time, her grandmother had no time to take care of her, so she would play with the store clerks.

Once a clerk dropped a copy of Crime and Punishment, and Lenai saw a sentence on it.

[There are countless philistines of all kinds, with extremely childish ideas, half-knowledge of everything, and yet stubbornly self-willed, who are quick to follow the latest fashionable ideas in order to vulgarize them at once and to caricature everything for which they sometimes serve in the most sincere way.]

She didn't understand it, but she thought it was telling her to do something interesting.

Just like now.

"Oh? You mean you want to exchange money for this matcha parfait I once had?"

The expression of the girl sitting opposite her was very funny. Lenai had said the same thing to other girls before, saying that she wanted to use her change to exchange for parfaits.

Those boring people would shyly buy her a drink. Although they are super nice people, they are mostly boring.

The woman in front of me is much more interesting.

She looked at herself as she looked at a cat.

"Little guy, I've already eaten. Are you sure you want to exchange it for your money?"

"Well, yes."

Although, Kaname rarely makes such requests to others, and only does so to a very small number of people she finds interesting.

"Forget about the money, can you let me touch your head? You're so cute, little sister."

Chitose Noshiro felt that the little girl in front of her was both well-behaved and likable, perhaps because she saw the shadow of the former little Su Shi in this child.

Little Su Shi is as cute as this little wild cat, and little Su Shi is also as well-behaved as this one.

Since I have nothing to do now, I might as well tease this little cutie.

"Touch? Yeah, that's interesting."

Seeing that the little guy in front of him did not resist, Qiansui rubbed it very naturally.

The fluffy white hair has a great texture, and the back and top of the head are also warm. Some people think that the texture of the little girl's head feels similar, but Chitose Noshiro disagrees with this.

Because every girl's little head gives Chitose different feedback, for example, Mini Light and Kunihō Riki, the former feels like a plush toy that can heat up, while the latter does not allow to be touched.

"What's your name?" Chitose scratched the other's chin subconsciously after touching his head. Amidst a comfortable hum, the heterochromic girl murmured incoherently:

"Lena."

"Do you have a last name?"

"Yes...mm..."

It's a very rare form, only a little more common than Noshiro. Chitose supported his chin and felt more and more that this child was just a kitten.

This strange cat-stroking process continued until Li Xi called Chitose.

"I'm leaving, little one."

姆？

"Will I see you again, interesting woman?"

Chitose had already walked many steps, leaving Lenai sitting there blankly, feeling a sense of emptiness.

"In the future?" Chitose turned his head slightly, the faint joy in his tone infecting Kaname, "No one can predict it, let's talk about the future later."

"What's your name?"

"I'll tell you next time we meet."

It would be very dangerous to tell others about this immediately. If Chitose wanted to tell others, she would just use a fake name to get by.

But Chitose always had a premonition that they would meet again, so in order to add a touch of fantasy to her life, she chose to keep her name.

Just think of it as planting a small seed for their future daily life. Who knows, they may never meet again.

Kaname Rakuna watched Chitose Noshiro disappear at the stairs. She blinked and only then remembered the matcha parfait she had exchanged for.

On the parfait, the white jade matcha balls were waving at Lenai, as if they were already impatient to be crushed by lips and teeth.

"Aww."

Yao Lenai took a big bite without any hesitation, and made a small humming sound from time to time.

An ordinary morning sets the stage for a moment not long after.

That's the way it is.

……

Go shopping, buy groceries, and go home. Although the girls outside are cute, there is a baby at home waiting for Chitose to take care of.

Although the child didn't say anything, Qiansui knew that the panic and anxiety deep in the heart of a little guy who couldn't see the picture was definitely stronger than most people.

Especially leaving them alone—

Blind people have a keener sense of hearing than ordinary people, and because of this they are more sensitive to silence.

No matter how poor the family is, Qiansui will not forget to buy a device for Jingben that can hear sounds continuously.

"Sister, among the sisters who came last time, the one with the best voice is very cute, isn't she?"

"Who? The light?"

Takamatsu Touma's voice is indeed very nice, but Chitose doesn't know if it's the best, because she loves it to death.

"I don't know. I'm not familiar with Kyoto yet."

After lunch, Chitose held Kyomoto and sat on the balcony to bask in the sun. Such good weather was rare, and there seemed to be a faint scent of cherry blossoms in the air.

"Well, then why do you say that unknown person is cute?"

Chitose chatted aimlessly, she felt unusually relaxed now.

But what she didn't expect was that the little guy curled up in her arms answered her in a serious tone:

"Because my sister has a beautiful voice and is the cutest, so the sister with a beautiful voice must also be a lovely person."

"Pfft, I don't know anything else, but this theorem must be true for Jing Ben."

Kyomoto is very cute and has a nice voice. He is the incarnation of an angel in the human world.

And everyone else too.

Chitose was very happy to meet these problematic angels whose wings were slightly broken. Although they were sometimes so troublesome that they could drive people crazy, it was undeniable that they were indeed cute.
