This is not the date I wanted.

"DEM?!" Shidao looked surprised.

"Calm down Shidou. It's not surprising that DEM is involved in many aspects, including the entertainment industry. If he really knew that Miku was an internal cadre of the elves, the people guarding the door would not be two black bodyguards but magicians."

Meng Yue listened to the other party describing a beautiful future to Mi Jiu in the room. Meng Yue just curled her lips in disdain. The world's number one singer? If I put on green pigtails and hold a green onion stick to act cute on the Internet, the barrage would definitely fill the screen with this.

"Miss. Youxiao, you must be very satisfied with my proposal. What do you think? Are you interested in enjoying an elegant dinner with me?"

The foreign man invited Miku with a magnetic male voice. Although the man sounded quite narcissistic, Shidou had to say that, regardless of his appearance, based on the current information, if it were someone else, they might really be moved by Mr. William's proposal.

Pfft——!

However, he was facing Miku this time. This invitation was already hopeless when the other party was DEM, no, the other party was a man.

"Huh? What on earth are you talking about, you disgusting toad? No, toads are at least useful. Dirt like you only pollutes the air on this earth. Do you think that the expensive brand-name perfume you spray on your body can cover up your disgusting smell of stinking sewers? I want to vomit. Can you please leave quickly and go back to your cesspool? Don't disturb me and my agent's resting place anymore."

Ah... what's that saying? Either perish in silence or explode in silence.

Although Miku's male aversion has been alleviated by Shidao, it has not actually been cured. She seemed to be concerned about her manager so she didn't say anything, but in the end she couldn't help it?

Shidou and Mengyue looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

"...You——! Good! Very good! You dared to touch my DEM Entertainment Editor-in-Chief, William Westert. Yui Miku! From today on, your idol career is over. Soon, you can only spend the rest of your life as a tool."

The door of the lounge was suddenly opened, and a middle-aged foreign man who was soaked like a chicken walked out and left angrily with his black bodyguard.

"Ahhhhh~ What a boring farce..."

Meng Yue sighed deeply, looking as if she couldn't stand it.

"Shidou, go and keep Miku company first. Despite her attitude just now, she must have been quite frightened."

Shidou nodded in understanding, then asked with some confusion.

"I know, what about you, Mengyue?"

"Don't worry, I'll be there soon. Before then, I have something to do."

"...Be careful."

Looking at Mengyue's indifferent expression, Shidao seemed to understand something, but had no intention of stopping it.

Then, after Shidou entered the lounge, Mengyue took out the headphones.

"Moshimoshi? Kotori-chan, I might accidentally lose my spiritual power later. If my spiritual power is discovered by AST, please help me clean up the mess."

Although Mengyue looked calm, the man's actions just now had actually completely pissed her off.

[Eh? Wait, Sister Mengyue, what are you going to do——]

After hanging up the phone, Meng Yue looked at the foreign giants who were leaving and a dangerous smile appeared on her face.

"How dare you propose unspoken rules to your idol in front of his fans? ￥%** (harmonic sound), I don't care who you are, William Westert! Even if your boss Ike Westcott came, I will beat him so hard that his mother won't recognize him!"

……

Then in the afternoon, after Shidao's clarification, Miku learned that Mengyue was actually her die-hard fan, and her heart was immediately opened, and she took advantage of Mengyue (no mistake). After being satisfied, after this and that happened, she enthusiastically invited Mengyue to become a popular idol with her.

Meng Yue: Wait! What happened to this and that part!?

Ms. Ang, who had already written a letter of resignation and was planning to return to Sonodaju, suddenly received an apology call from the other party. She immediately rekindled her passion for idol work and said that she saw idol potential in Mengyue that was no less than that of Miku. She handed over her business card very enthusiastically and even started rehearsing various activity plans in her mind, and even decided on a name for the group without her permission.

——Pure Lilies (Pure Lilies). (Note: Lilies are not afraid of gossip, so Mijiu directly called Mengyue "honey~" in front of her agent).

As a result, of course, Liangyi Mengyue...ran away.

——————————————————————————-Small Theater——————————————————————————

Shidao: Mengyue, there is actually one thing I don’t understand.

Mengyue: Oh? You said?

Shidao: During the handshake meeting, you said to me: "Take care of yourself", what did you mean? I misunderstood you for a long time.

Mengyue: Oh, this... (turns around) Everyone! Shidou just went on a date with Miku secretly!

Tohka: What? Shidou and Miku are dating? Um - Shidou, you have to go on a date with me next time!

Origami: It seems that Yusho Miku must also be listed as a target for elimination. But before that, Shidou, please go on a date with me - in the hotel.

Yoshino: Ah~ Miku-chan is so cunning to run away secretly. Nei Nei Shidou-kun, our lovely Yoshino is a little hurt~ Come and comfort her.

Yoshino: Um... I also want to go on a date with Shidou-san...!

Yakuya: Ku... My belongings were actually bewitched by the witch of the devil's voice when I was careless... It seems that a more profound contract must be engraved. "

Yui: Same as above. Next time, I will make Shidou more aware of Yamai's charm.

Kurumi: Lala, I heard something very interesting while I was monitoring, please let me join in. It would be nice to take Shidou-san to a cat cafe... and eat there too.

Kotori (white): Um~ Onii-chan, I'm going to eat the limited-edition set meal at a family restaurant tomorrow! Accompany me~

Shidou: ………………

Mengyue: (turning back) Do you understand?

Shidao: ...I know I was wrong.

Dream Moon Catfriend (I)

==============================

On a normal day after school, Meng Yue went to a bookstore in the shopping street alone, read the latest comic magazine under the resentful gaze of the bookstore clerk, and left the bookstore with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment after finishing reading the book.

Suddenly she received a call from Shidou who was at home.

"Sanma?"

Meng Yue asked with some surprise.

"Well, today, Tohka said she wanted to eat saury after watching a recommendation on a food program on TV."

"I see. Now is indeed the season when saury are abundant."

After taking a quick look around, Mengyue did see quite a few special offers on saury and food stalls.

Now is autumn, which happens to be the peak season for catching saury. This fish is cheap, delicious, and nutritious. It tastes great whether grilled, fried, steamed, or boiled. To exaggerate a little, saury represents the appetite of autumn in Japan.

"So, how do you plan to cook it? Steam it? Fry it? Or make it into sashimi?"

Meng Yue’s face was full of anticipation.

"Let's grill it with charcoal. If I remember correctly, there is a coal stove for smoking in the warehouse."

"Oh! The Japanese way of eating."

Meng Yue was very excited. As soon as she imagined the crispy fish body and the extremely tempting aroma of the charcoal-grilled saury, she knew that as long as she dipped it in soy sauce, it would undoubtedly become the ultimate delicacy.

Not to mention Tohka, Mengyue herself felt drooling just thinking about it.

So Mengyue nodded readily.

"I see. I can just stop by the fish store and buy some saury on the way back."

"Oh, and by the way, buy some salt and soy sauce. Please pay for it first, and I'll give it to you when I get back."

"Hi hi~"

After ending the call with Shidao, Mengyue changed direction and came to the fish shop.

"Hey! Isn't this Meng Yue-chan?"

Seeing Mengyue coming, the uncle in the fish shop greeted her warmly.

"I'm here to buy ingredients for dinner today. Shidao's old lover, who's usually with me, isn't here today?"

"No, Shidou and I are not a couple..."

Meng Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly. Since she was in charge of half of the cooking work of the Gokawa family, Meng Yue often came to buy ingredients as a housewife, and was quite popular among the uncles and aunts in the shopping street. In addition, Meng Yue and Shidao were often seen shopping recently, so people in the shopping street mistakenly thought that Meng Yue and Shidao were dating.

Although if Shidao really had such an intention, Mengyue would not refuse.

"Boss, do you have fresh saury?"

"Of course! We just got them from the fishery this morning. They're guaranteed to be fresh."

Meng Yue looked at the frozen saury on the fish stall, observed for a while, and then picked out the fresher ones one by one.

"Boss, this one, that one, and this saury...please pack these for me."

"You bought a lot. Are there any customers coming?"

"It's better to say that family members are just that much."

Meng Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly. Not to mention the others, just Shixiang's share had to be counted as the share for ten people.

After paying the money, the uncle from the fish shop carried the heavy bag. Fortunately, Mengyue had the power of an elf so she was able to lift it.

"Boss, since I bought so much, can you give me a slightly lower price?"

"Haha, for a girl as cute as Meng Yue-chan, this is natural."

"Haha...thank you..."

Although Meng Yue showed a subtle expression when she was evaluated as a cute girl, but the boss gave her a discount so readily, it was considered a profit...

"Then, next is soy sauce and, supermarket~"

"Meow~"

Just as Meng Yue was about to go to the supermarket, she heard a cat's cry. Meng Yue looked down and saw a pure black cat standing at her feet.

"It's so rare... that a cat would actually come near me."

Meng Yue looked at the black cat with some surprise. You have to know that since she became an elf, her body has completely inherited the characteristics of Misaka Mikoto. Even if her spiritual power is sealed, her body will still emit weak electromagnetic waves. Generally speaking, small animals will not get close to her.

Mengyue squatted down slightly and observed the cat. There was no domestic collar around its neck, and its fur did not look well-maintained. It should be a stray cat wandering around the shopping street.

"Meow~meow~"

The black cat was not scared away by Mengyue's sudden approach. Instead, it looked at the saury in Mengyue's bag and made cat meows.

After Mengyue took out a saury, the cat's vertical pupils were also attracted.

Holding the saury, he swayed it left and right in the air, and the black cat's head swayed along with Meng Yue's movements.

"Want to eat?"

Meng Yue tried to ask.

"Meow~"

The black cat gave a delicate cry and its tail wagged happily.

Mengyue put the saury in front of the black cat. Just when the cat was about to take a bite, it suddenly retracted its bite.

"Meow meow!"

"Don't be angry. I just think it's not good to eat it raw. I'll process it a little bit. Hmm... this level should be fine."

After calming down the angry black cat and making sure that there was no one around, Meng Yue took a deep breath, and a flash of electricity appeared in her left hand holding the saury.

Only a very small part of the spiritual suit was unfolded, and the saury was simply processed by electric heating. Although it was a bit of a waste of food, it was much better than eating it raw.

The fish skin gradually became crispy, and the unique aroma of saury was faintly revealed, making the originally very angry black cat's eyes light up instantly.

"Meow meow--"

"Wait, it's too hot to eat."

Considering that the cat's tongue is afraid of burns, Mengyue gently blew on the saury to cool it down. After the surface temperature dropped, she picked up a piece of promotional paper and put it on the ground, and handed the grilled saury to the black cat.

"Okay, please use it."

"Meow~"

After a cheerful cry, the black cat lowered its head and began to taste it with relish.

"Well, what a strange cat."

With a slight laugh, Meng Yue touched the black cat's head lightly, then picked up the bag of saury and left.

After the little episode on the road, Mengyue went to the supermarket to buy salt and soy sauce, and then suddenly thought of lemon juice as a way of eating charcoal-grilled saury. Thinking that Shidao's family didn't seem to have such things prepared, she bought some without permission.

"That's about it."

After confirming that all the ingredients and seasonings Shidao had ordered were purchased, Meng Yue couldn't help but hum a cheerful tune when she thought about the plump and tender saury she would be able to enjoy after returning home.
