I wanted to be a bad actor in the anime, but I failed.

The [Cat Magician] wearing the extremely rare [Dark Cat] costume and a cute big-headed cat headgear is very healing!

Perhaps to match their friends' outfits, Nishimiya Glass and Kato Megumi also changed into pink and white cat costumes.

Immediately!

The three girls strolled around the town, looking as adorable as three naive and naughty kittens, attracting countless people's gazes and admiration.

As for the Berserker following behind the three of them, he looked very poor.

Mu Lin: [What are you doing running around? Are you not going to do the mission?]

Kato Megumi: [Play for a while.]

Nishimiya Glass: [The three kittens are so cute! ]

Yukinoshita Yukino: [...]

The fact that the black cat, who is not good at expressing his emotions, has the courage to send out an ellipsis is the greatest respect for the three people.

After playing for an hour, Yukinoshita hadn't completed any of the story missions, but she had become much more familiar with Kato Megumi and Nishimiya Shoko.

As for the fashion that Mu Lin gave her.

Also, this is a somewhat expensive gaming machine.

Now Yukinoshita can only express her gratitude by sending private messages.

【Thanks! 】

She bit her lip, feeling very grateful.

A lot of things had happened between her and the boy, whom she used to dislike, recently, which put her in an awkward situation.

But the other party's words directly broke her defense.

[It's okay, I'll lend it to you for a few days, and you can return it to me when you have it. ]

Yukinoshita was speechless for a while, and finally decided to put the game console on the bedside table and leave it idle.

Ignoring the berserker in the game, she picked up the crutch beside her and stood up with difficulty.

She walked step by step to the living room and came back with a cup of black tea.

Sitting upright on the chair beside the bed, she drank tea while watching the Berserker in the game console who was working hard to kill monsters and help her complete the story mission.

The berserker holding a big sword and covered in black air looked like a black slave who was working hard for the noble [Cat Magician].

Think so.

The corners of her mouth curled up in a dignified smile.

After drinking the tea, he took a deep breath, removed the bandage on his foot and checked how the injury was healing.

The healed wounds made her feel relieved.

Fortunately, my feet are still so cute.

Changed the medicine and put on a new bandage.

It’s getting late, time to go to bed.

So she slowly climbed onto the bed.

She curled up in the quilt lazily and with a sense of security, picked up the game console and said, "Thank you, I'm going to sleep."

"Hmm? You're still awake?"

"It's time to go to bed now."

"How is your injury healing?"

“It should be ready by Saturday.”

"Well, I'll go to your house on Saturday and solve the problem of you having to keep talking to me every day to avoid being affected."

"You... um, okay."

Yukinoshita wanted to ask Mu Lin if he was tired of her, but after thinking it over, she felt that it was inappropriate to ask so she stopped.

He touched the sticker on the back of the game console, put it aside, and lay on the bed, staring at the white ceiling in a daze.

It was a cold and quiet night outside the window.

The house is warm, safe and bright.

Today is the happiest day for Yukinoshita.

It was the first time that I had so much fun playing with two girls who seemed to be my friends.

No suspicion, no competition, no comparison.

Just have fun.

Even though it was a game, it still made her feel a little strange.

"Friends..."

"Maybe it's just that the screen has minimized our shortcomings, giving us the opportunity to get along with each other."

Yukinoshita said pessimistically, then closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.

……

The game console floated up.

……

As for saying.

The Dark Cat costume that the boy 'lent' to the girl.

In the future, it is still uncertain who will be the final owner.

Maybe at the very end.

Even if the boy asked her face to face, the girl would just play dumb and say, "Huh? Is it yours? Please don't use such despicable means to satisfy your covetousness just because my costume is too rare! I got it by brushing the event copy!"

......

Saturday morning.

In the luxury apartment where Yukinoshita lives.

"Good morning."

After personally opening the door for Mu Lin, Yukinoshita said seriously.

"Well, good morning."

Mu Lin was a little surprised by what Yukinoshita was wearing.

White pleated dress, blue plush coat, black cotton stockings and princess shoes.

She wore two ponytails tied up with a red headband and put on light makeup.

At this moment, she changed from her previous cold and distant attitude to become quiet and lovely instead.

This is like dressing for going out.

Sure enough, before Mu Lin entered the room, Yukinoshita walked out the door carrying a shoulder bag.

"What are you..."

"Let's go shopping before we solve my problem."

"?"

"It's a way of repaying you. I feel bad just saying thank you."

"I don't need anyone to go shopping with me in return."

"No. I wanted to give you a gift and buy some food to treat you to lunch."

"..."

Mu Lin looked at Xuexia in silence.

He even saw a flash of panic.

This is the regretful thought that comes from the fear of being rejected.

long silence.

As the girl clutched her bag tightly, feeling somewhat at a loss.

"Ah."

After receiving the reply, Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief without showing any emotion.

I felt a little emotional.

It’s not easy to take the initiative to invite friends to go shopping for the first time.

It was cloudy and windy.

The weather is getting colder.

As you walk along, you can sometimes even exhale a puff of white mist.

Gradually approaching the commercial street.

slowly.

There was a hustle and bustle of traffic and a surge of people.

There are all kinds of shops, supermarkets, etc.

At this time, many young people were strolling around here, enjoying the hard-earned weekend leisure time, but they pale in comparison to the black-haired boy and girl.

The main thing is that the cute girl with twin ponytails has a pure and cool appearance that is really irresistible.

Yukinoshita led the boy behind her to a doll shop skillfully.

As if he missed her too much, he walked quickly with small steps to the doll cabinet of Mr. Pan (the panda), and touched the plush head of a doll without making any expression.

In front of Mu Lin, she was a little reserved.

But she was getting more and more excited and couldn't stop.

"Do you come here often?"

Mu Lin's question made her cough lightly, and she calmed down her red face, and put the ravaged Mr. Pan back far away.

"Long time no see."

"Hasn't been here for a week?"

"how do you know?"

"Guess."

Yukinoshita nodded, carefully selected a palm-sized Mr. Pan from the counter, and then went to the counter to pay.

Under the mysterious smile of the female cashier and the jealous eyes of the male cashier.

She held the exquisite gift bag and handed it to Mu Lin, saying, "This is a thank you gift."

"You don't think that just because you like panda dolls, you think I like them too?"

Those plain words were like a stone thrown into a lake, shocking the passers-by.

Such straight man's remarks are really shocking.

Even the female cashier next to her showed a look of disappointment.

The male cashier sat there gloatingly, waiting for Mu Lin to regret his misfortune.

"Mr. Pan is so cute, is there anyone who doesn't like him?"

The words were too matter-of-fact, making Yukinoshita look a little silly.

She blinked in confusion.

"If it was a normal panda doll, everyone might like it, but there are definitely people who don't like this panda with pointed eyes and a wicked smile."

"You want a round-eyed panda doll? I see."

Yukinoshita nodded and walked into the store carrying the exquisite gift bag.

Soon, the two came to the normal panda doll counter.

"Please pick one you like."

"Why do you have a preconceived notion that you can express your gratitude with a panda doll?"

"No, didn't I tell you that I'll buy some groceries and then go home and make lunch for you."

Perhaps because of Mr. Pan's lowering of her intelligence, Yukinoshita did not realize the inappropriateness of this sentence. By the time she noticed the strange looks from people around her, it was already too late to regret.

"What virtue does this man have?"

"Why! Why!"

"Wow! Being chased by such a cute girl!"

The discussion among the group of people made Yukinoshita feel a little overwhelmed.

But based on the idea that a person of integrity has nothing to fear, she let it go and no longer cared about what others thought.

But what she didn't realize was that not far away, two girls were walking towards her with terrifying ghost-like steps.

Even Mu Lin didn't notice the malicious intent!

"Okay, but as a thank you gift, I can accept this as long as it's still alive."

Mu Lin pointed to the gift bag in her hand.

The latter tilted his head slightly, then hurriedly handed it to Mu Lin.

"Thank you."

She was the one who gave the gift, but she was thanking him in a strange way.

Mu Lin shrugged and said that he would quickly go buy some groceries, have lunch and get the business done.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw a black gas in front of him that seemed to have escaped from the abyss of hell and filled the entire space!

He was shocked and was wondering if those mysterious people had come to visit him, but then he saw clearly who was coming.

Then, he shuddered all over as if a snake was crawling up his back!

"So you're not planning on going home because you're busy with things like this."

The cute girl with short bob hair, who had a weak presence before, was so dazzling for the first time that passers-by retreated and broke out in cold sweat.

At the same time, the gentle girl beside her also stared at Mu Lin closely, with an expression that said if she didn't explain it properly, she would be gone.

……

Because Mu Lin hadn't been back for a long time and weekends were already very boring, Kato Megumi had already planned to come to Chiba Prefecture.

Just now, she made an appointment with Gaozi to meet at the station without telling Mu Lin, and then when they passed by the commercial street, they saw a scene that gave them both a "surprise".

That is, the boy that both of them were thinking about was shopping with a strange girl without telling them.

That lovely, shining and elegant girl made them feel an unprecedented crisis!

……

"Uh……"

Faced with the two girls' questioning, Mu Lin didn't know how to explain.

After all, the reason involves a mysterious side.

But his speechless appearance made Hui and Naoko even more convinced.

If they were given a chance to throw a tantrum, they would just turn around and leave and ignore this scumbag!

But it is based on the premise that he will catch up with me!

Knowing Mu Lin's temper, they felt that leaving would alienate them from Mu Lin, and in the end they would be the ones who would suffer.

Therefore, he could only walk closer and punish the boy with his aura of oppression!

"You are……"

The cold voice was like a morning star, bringing light to the heavy doll shop.

Even the passers-by around breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran out, leaving the doll shop owner in tears.

"I'm Kato Megumi, and she's Nishimiya Glass."

"Eh? You are the shadowless assassins, using piano music instead of language?"

Yukinoshita's eyes widened slightly and then locked onto Nishimiya Naoko.

Sudden.

She thought about that time when she went to the cat shelter in Tokyo!

If she knew him... then... that black cat...

My thoughts were interrupted.

"Are you a cat magician?"

Kato Megumi was also a little surprised.

"Yeah." Yukinoshita nodded.

When Kato Megumi explained the current situation to the confused Nishimiya Glass using sign language.

Mu Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, we met in the game in advance, otherwise it would have been difficult to end it.

As if she had noticed his little thoughts.

The three women who were chatting suddenly looked at him strangely at the same time.

The creepy eyes are bright and sharp.

There are questions and doubts.

"Um... four of you, I'm sorry."

The doll shop owner came over.

Knowing that he didn't say anything to drive them away, the four of them had no choice but to walk out of the doll shop.

He walked away from this dangerous place under the curious gaze of a group of people.

……

In Yukinoshita Yukino's luxury suite.

At this time, the living room has become a three-legged tripod!

On one side is a faction called the Kato Megumi and Nishimiya Shoko alliance that sits together.

On one side is the Mu Lin faction, which is being attacked by the enemy with the whole country's strength and can only survive in the city!

The other is the neutral Yukinoshita Yukino faction who just arrived after putting down the dishes!

stare--

"Don't look at me with such scary eyes."

Mu Lin was speechless.

But Hui and Gaozi didn't listen at all and seemed to want to kill Mu Lin with their eyes.

Yukinoshita Yukino, who had brewed four cups of black tea, said calmly, "Everyone, please enjoy."

The so-called "besiege Wei to save Zhao" should be like this!

"Thank you."

While the three of them were expressing their gratitude, Mu Lin returned the favor with even greater gratitude!

After drinking the tea in silence and taking in the strange atmosphere among the three people, Yukinoshita Yukino finally offered her final helping hand and began to explain.

"Although I don't know who you are... Never mind, this time I invited him to go shopping mainly because I wanted to repay him."

"I see."

Kato Megumi nodded calmly, without even asking why she repaid him.

But Mu Lin, who knew her well, could tell at a glance that she showed no signs of calming down!

Also!

They both know each other well.

Kato Megumi certainly knew that even if the beautiful girl took the initiative to invite him, how could he possibly agree for the first time?

Unless there is another purpose!

As for Yukinoshita Yukino, who was not familiar with Kato Megumi, she assumed that she and Nozomi no longer blamed Mu Lin.

Time goes by quickly every morning.

Noon has arrived.

Yukinoshita Yukino cooks in the kitchen wearing a headscarf and apron.

Nishimiya Naoko pulled Kato Megumi to the kitchen to help.

However, when the two girls passed by the woods, one of them gave him a big bag.

……

Of course, this big bag is hit on the shoulder.

Very hard!

The pain let him know that they were not just angry.

Well, from their point of view, he abandoned them during their weekend leisure time to accompany another woman.

This behavior is indeed infuriating.

Of course, this will make others angry.

Who would care about him if they don't like him?

That’s why we need to cherish it…

Mu Lin rubbed his shoulders and frowned with a headache.
