Teacher Daxiang, please teach me how to play Kasuga Shadow!

When Su Shi thought of this, she raised her head again and looked at Ayano who was whispering with Aine beside her.

And

The other person seemed to feel his gaze, and after a slight pause, he gave him a kind smile.

"..."

Otherwise, for the sake of the great cause of revival, should she sell out her own personality a little and develop a personal relationship with Mizushima Ayano?

At this moment, Su Shi is in a very dilemma. On the one hand, she doesn't want to be passive, but on the other hand, Ayano has the information she wants very much.

Back to reality, seeing Li Xi, Xiao Deng and others staring at her, Su Shi realized that no matter what, she had no way out.

"We...should be able to start over, right?"

"Again?"

"That's right." Su Shi looked at the two people with expectation in their eyes. She seemed to be encouraged by this, "If the misunderstanding is not resolved, we will just be spinning in circles.

So if I could do it again, this time I would just sit down and have a good conversation and the same situation would not happen again.

Me, Xiao Deng, Li Xi...ah, and Ayano, let's form a band together?"

In fact, Su Shi's mind was only filled with the two people in front of her, and she didn't think about the existence of other people at all. But when she thought of Xiangzi and the others, Ayano's figure popped up in her mind, so with this reluctant attitude, she could only hastily add Ayano's name.

but……

"Mr. Sushi, have you forgotten about the other person?"

"what?"

Seeing Ayano's unfriendly eyes, Su Shi broke out in a cold sweat, and then suddenly thought of an extremely serious problem...

Oh no, she forgot the succubus pendant!

Chapter 25: Fengchuan classmate has already made tens of millions every minute! (1 more)

Inside a sophisticated coffee shop called COFFEE VALLEY, 2-26-3 Minamiikebukuro, Toshima-ku, Tokyo.

Shoko Toyokawa sat in a booth in the corner, glancing at the warm wood-based design style of the house out of the corner of her eyes. Here... she had been here before.

The owner of the coffee shop was still the same one, but because there were so many customers, he didn't pay much attention to Xiangzi, a customer who hadn't been there for a long time.

The background music in the store is still mainly piano music, and the one playing at the moment is Canon, which Xiangzi quite likes. Or perhaps it can be said that Japanese people seem to have a special liking for Canon.

She often heard this song in various places, as if... these people only knew this song.

Just like Ruoye Mu in front of him, he only knew how to use this wrong method that he had reminded himself many times to stop himself at the school gate.

"I told you not to use such an obvious method. What's the difference between you saying it directly and...?"

"……Feel sorry."

The girl with light green hair seemed to be deliberately avoiding Xiangzi's gaze. She lowered her head and replied with a little disappointment, "I just want to see Xiangzi."

"see me?"

"Because Xiangzi never replied to me."

Shoko Toyokawa's hand holding the coffee cup was slightly startled.

Why didn't she reply? Besides not having the energy to deal with these troublesome interpersonal relationships during this period, it was more likely because Xiaomu's messages always mentioned Nagasaki Suyo vaguely.

That brown-haired girl was really too troublesome. Even though she had been deliberately keeping her distance, she always tried to get close to her for various reasons and didn't want to give her any chance to breathe.

Gradually, she began to choose the dumbest way to deal with it: cold treatment.

I thought that if I blocked her and treated her with the coldest attitude, then Su Shi's inexplicable enthusiasm might fade away one day?

"So, why exactly did you meet me today?"

"Su Shi, she's very worried about you."

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko raised her eyebrows, but seemed to have expected such an outcome.

"how about you?"

"I...I'm worried about Xiaoxiang too."

"Really?" Xiangzi's lips curled up into a smile, but her eyes didn't seem to be focused on Ruoye Mu in front of her. "I think I have met her once. Didn't she tell you?"

"...Su Shi has a lot to say, and I want to go to your house and talk to you in person."

"Home……"

Many images flashed through Shoko Toyokawa's mind, and finally stopped at the moment when she slammed the door and left, and the scene when she was lying on a strange bed, looking at the chandelier on the ceiling.

Is home where your family is, or is home where you feel comfortable?

"Please tell her that I've moved, and... you're not someone's messenger. I hope that the next time we meet, you won't come for others, but for yourself.

That's all, Gui'an."

"..." Ruoye Mu looked up at Xiangzi and the other person's back as he picked up the bill and left. She stood there for a long time before she murmured softly to herself, "Xiaoxiang, you seem to have changed."

----------

After leaving the coffee shop, Shoko Toyokawa looked at the bustling streets and sighed to herself.

The coffee just now... was so expensive.

She actually didn't have much savings now, because she felt a little sorry for her bastard dad if she moved out rashly, so she only had the necessities of life and nothing else.

All the money was handed over to my father.

Perhaps only in this way can she reduce the damn guilt in her heart a little, at least she has fulfilled all her responsibilities as a daughter.

Do you want to ask Ayano for an advance on your salary?

Xiangzi hesitated for a long time, and finally thought of a more suitable excuse.

As she walked towards the station, she took out her cell phone and sent a message to Ayano.

"Ayano, I think you haven't bought the blanket I need to sleep on at night yet? If there's anything else you need at home, I can help you."

no reply.

Hearing the sound of the tram arriving at the station, Xiangzi frowned slightly. He followed the crowd and got on the tram, while holding his mobile phone and silently waiting for his message to change from "unread" to "read".

Did I ask this too suddenly?

Or is Ayano busy with other things right now and has no time to check her messages?

"Is that Toyokawa-san?"

At this moment, several unfamiliar voices sounded in front of her. She raised her head and carefully observed the people in front of her. Finally, through memory comparison, she recognized that these people in front of her seemed to be her classmates in junior high school.

It’s just the name, I can’t remember it.

"It's really Toyokawa-san! So you're still in Neon?"

One of the girls, who looked more carefree, moved closer to Xiangzi. This overly direct action made Xiangzi feel some resistance from the bottom of his heart.

"We haven't seen you in school since you started high school, so we all thought you must have gone abroad to study."

"Yes, Xiangzi has such good grades and speaks fluently, so studying abroad will definitely be no problem for him."

"But Xiangzi, why are you doing this?"

It's so noisy.

Why did she meet her junior high school classmates here? She couldn't even remember when she had ever been close to these two people. And when Xiangzi carefully observed the expressions of these two people, he didn't see any signs of deliberately making things difficult for her.

That’s right, apart from myself, it seems that no one really wants to make things difficult for me.

“I didn’t go abroad…”

"We've arrived at Seibu Department Store. Passengers please get off the bus in an orderly manner."

The sudden announcement of the station was like a life-saving straw for Xiangzi. She did not care about the extra fare for taking the bus again. She stood up and bowed to the two people in front of her and said goodbye:

"I'm sorry, my family needs me to come here to discuss a business deal with several companies and purchase a batch of supplies, so please allow me to go ahead.

...Gui'an."

Looking at Xiangzi's back as he hurriedly left, the two people who remained in the car looked at each other in confusion.

Among them, the girl with short hair and a more introverted personality suddenly thought of something, clapped her hands and said:

"As expected of Fengchuan, who is excellent in all aspects, he has already started to get involved in the family business so soon?"

"No wonder I haven't seen her for a long time, woooo... When we were still in school, she was already making tens of millions every minute."

"But is there any cooperation between Toyokawa-san's family and this place?"

"Perhaps it's to train her. After all, although the market for daily necessities is already saturated, it won't be suddenly hit too hard. I just wonder what Toyokawa-san will be like when she discusses cooperation with adults."

……

"Boss, can't this three-piece bed set be a little cheaper?"

Chapter 26: To support Xiangzi, one also needs sufficient strength (still 2)

A young girl, alone, standing at a crossroads, should be a very beautiful realistic portrait.

It’s a pity that the bags carried by the girl destroyed the haziness, but it also made realism itself more realistic.

Shoko Toyokawa, who was waiting for the traffic light in the center of the "frame", actually didn't know what her mental state was at the moment.

If this were her situation some time ago, there was no doubt that she felt extremely lonely inside.

This kind of loneliness is not the loneliness of one person, but the loneliness of no one.

Although it sounds very pretentious to say this, isn't she just such a pretentious person?

And just now... she lied again in a pretentious manner.

Just to save that little bit of face, look at what outrageous things she made up? She even said she was discussing business... but in the end, this so-called business cost her less than 3000 yen in total.

What's more, which young lady would take public transportation to discuss business? It's amazing that I have the audacity to say such illogical words.

Hey~

Xiangzi, who had just walked to the other side of the road, felt the mobile phone in her skirt pocket vibrate slightly. She didn't care about the strange looks from people around her, she put down the sheets and bedding in her hand and took out the mobile phone from her pocket.

[I have already transferred the money to you. Sorry, I forgot about this for a moment.]

"I gave you a total of 15,000 yen. Apart from your salary for today, you can spend the rest as you wish. You don't need to give me any extra money."

The message consisted of just two simple sentences. Xiangzi kept sliding his finger upwards, but no third message came.

However, after she stared at the phone screen expressionlessly for a while, she received an alert about the arrival of funds in her bank account.

Hiding her true thoughts with a cold expression, Toyokawa Shoko silently took back her phone, and after some twists and turns, she

Finally, I arrived at Ayano's doorstep around 7 o'clock in the evening.

He took out the spare key that the other party had handed to him the night before and opened the door easily.

"excuse me."

After all, she was just staying there temporarily, so Xiangzi treated herself as an outsider. After greeting her politely, she turned on the lights in the entrance hall and the living room.

Then I habitually turned off the useless lights after changing my shoes. It was nothing else, I was just used to saving money.

But you know what, although the house here is not too big, the combination of the full furniture and various decorations really makes Xiangzi feel very warm and safe.

According to Ayano, her future room will be a guest bedroom next to the kitchen.

After pushing open the door with his bags, the scene that came into view was not as messy as Xiangzi had imagined.

Maybe it's because Ayano's personality isn't the type that likes shopping, so the things in this house are basically just enough for what she needs.

One more thing is really too much, and one less thing is really a bit inconvenient.

I don’t know if such a frugal character will eventually lead to him being cheated by some bad-intentioned people.

But considering that guy's character and intelligence...it seems that she is the only one who has deceived others and made them lose both their money and their lives, right?

Xiangzi is now quite experienced in doing housework. She rummaged around on the balcony, took out a plastic basin with some water, and then found a mop and a broom. Then she began to clean up her future "home".

The guest bedroom is smaller than the master bedroom, but it has air conditioning, a desk and other facilities.

After simply cleaning up the dust on the floor and wiping every place he could see with a towel, Xiangzi began to arrange the pillows, bedding and other things neatly.

It took her nearly an hour to finish all the work.
