I, Minami Kotori, Son of the Sun

It was an ordinary day, the sun was shining brightly, and it was noon after school. Muse’s good sisters made an appointment to go to the newly opened Michelin restaurant again to check it out.

Let's see if "eating pasta that clears the body" and "drinking vegetable salad juice that makes you energetic" are really as incredible as the rumors say.

"If nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be many people today." Maki has been squatting here for several days in a row and guessed that there shouldn't be many people today.

The restaurant does not accept reservations, and reportedly does not accept orders. It seems that what you can eat depends entirely on the chef's mood, which is in line with the saying "famous doctors prescribe the right medicine for the right disease."

After consuming the chef’s customized meals, every diner can feel the changes in their body, and each diner feels it from a different angle.

And adolescent girls also have their own troubles.

Nicole is obsessed with her size - in every way, which makes her feel inferior to her arch-enemy Maki all the time. If the tire restaurant is really that magical, it would be great if it could make her grow taller and bigger.

It doesn't have to be too high, just taller than Maki. It doesn't have to be too big either, as long as it can compete with Maki.

Although Honoka is a fool, she also has worries: "It would be nice if there were a dish that could make you smarter if you eat it."

"Honoka, I think since you can say such things, even if the chef has great skills, he can't save you." Umi commented mercilessly.

"Tsk, you sound like Umi is very smart." Honoka pouted unconvinced and continued to dream beautifully, "It would be great if there were some food that could help me lose weight."

She probably has a lot in common with some optimistic god about this kind of illusory ideal.

"Let's talk about dishes that make you smarter," Umi said seriously.

"You guy! Why don't you tell me, what kind of food do you want to eat?!" Honoka couldn't help it anymore. The old thief Umi was still trying to sabotage her!

"Ahem, as for me..." Umi was thinking, and Kotori chuckled and took over the conversation: "As for Umi, it should be a dish that you won't feel embarrassed about eating."

"Kotori~" Umi patted Kotori's shoulder pitifully. It was more like a act of coquettishness than a complaint.

"Why are you so gentle to Kotori!" Honoka was so angry. We grew up together, and you two are so affectionate with each other, but what about me?

Umi then gently pinched Honoka's face, and the latter immediately got angry: "Umi, if you want to fight, just say so!"

Umi said nothing, but gently pinched Kotori's face, and the latter responded tenderly and coquettishly: "What are you doing, Umi-chan~"

The cry of a bird made everyone present distracted, except Honoka who was still angry.

"You see, this is the difference." Umi gave an insightful opinion.

Seeing that her two classmates didn't interrupt, Maki took the initiative to ask, "Hanayo, Rin, what about you?"

"Ah? As for me, I only care about whether I can eat enough." Huayang is a rice god and is not interested in Western food.

"As for me, hehe, I don't want anything..." Lin evaded the question, but looking at her expression, Shinji felt that...she was hiding something.

"I want to become more like a girl, but if I tell them this wish, they will laugh at me." Rin felt a little sad as he looked at the beautiful girls in front of him.

She always wore sweatpants because she felt that with her short hair and unlovable personality, she simply could not be an idol alongside such beautiful and lovely muses.

Her carefree personality is like a tiger skin wrapped in a layer of skin. Inside, she is actually very fragile, sensitive, and even a little inferior.

She is just a weak cat, looking at the brilliant everyone. Because she loves every member equally, she is not jealous.

At most, it's just envy.

. . .

As expected, an accident happened. The road that everyone had to take was blocked by crowds of people.

There was even the piercing sound of sirens.

"So, what happened?" Across an intersection, a huge crowd blocked the way, and everyone in Muse looked at each other in bewilderment.

I saw a danger banner being hoisted from a distance, but the crowd watching the excitement was inside the banner.

Through the gaps in the crowd, one could vaguely see several uniformed policemen standing on high alert, half-kneeling with guns in hand.

The little bird keenly sensed that something was wrong, so it pricked up its ears to listen.

In the human body state, the hearing ability is several times that of ordinary people, so all useful information can be heard.

"How cruel! They dared to rob a convenience store with just a kitchen knife."

"Yes, even though the police are here, the situation is still not good as that lunatic has held a female clerk hostage."

"There should be police snipers at times like this. That guy clearly looks mentally ill."

Xiao Niao was shocked when he heard this, and stopped the people who wanted to continue to move over to watch the excitement: "It's very dangerous over there, please stay away from it."

As it spoke, the bird walked towards the crowd on its own.

"Sister Kotori, but..." Nicole and Maki subconsciously grabbed Kotori's hand. The latter was stunned, and when she felt two soft hands holding her tightly, she realized her current identity.

"Everyone is still here..." The bird thought to himself that something was wrong.

Umi and Honoka looked at each other, as if trying to find a way to help get the others away, but it was obvious that this excuse could not be found in a short time.

After all, Kotori appears to be just a weak high school girl, even though she became slightly famous for beating up a 1.9-meter-tall guy a few days ago.

"Don't worry, I won't go over there either." The bird explained, "There seems to be a knife-wielding robber over there."

"But don't worry, the police are here, that man can't get through." Seeing the sisters around her all with nervous expressions, Xiaoniao comforted them, "Besides, I'm here, don't be afraid."

[I'm here, don't be afraid], these few short words, like a magic needle, pierced into everyone's heart.

"Sister Xiaoniao, you are so handsome!" Putting aside the fact that the sisters were fascinated by the handsome bird, since they were robbed, Xiaoniao, who was full of justice, naturally could not sit idly by.

She did not proceed to approach the first scene as agreed, because this was when the almighty [Golden Experience] would come in handy.

"It'll just be a short while, it should be fine." The bird hoped with a glimmer of hope.

She used a stand-in, and the shrinking golden experience turned a small stone on the roadside into a small snake, and a leaf on a lush tree into a crow.

From people's perspective, they only saw a crow flying out from a big tree, which was a little surprising but not abrupt.

And the little snake crawling around was not even noticed by anyone.

The crow's vision was transmitted to the bird's eyes: "Sure enough, that guy might be crazy."

He dared to rob with just a kitchen knife. Although this is not uncommon in Tokyo, where the people are simple and honest, he remained calm when facing the guns of three policemen.

Maybe his brain is really broken.

"Robbed a convenience store and ran away. You might not even be caught if you buy something for zero yuan. Now look what happens. Not only will you be shot if you stay here, but if you survive you will at least get a life sentence." Xiaoniao was worried about the robber's IQ.

. . .

He had a scar on his face and did not look like a good person. In addition to the clerk who was held hostage, there was also a young woman in bright clothes sitting not far away.

There was fear in his eyes, and his mouth opened and closed, as if he was muttering something.

"What is she talking about?" The bird wondered, so he ordered the crow to get closer to the woman who was talking to herself.

"Crazy, you're crazy, Jason, why are you doing this?" The woman spoke incoherently.

"Jason? Could it be that you are referring to the man with the scar?" Xiaoniao rolled his bright eyes and felt that things were not simple.

So, the man with the scar suddenly kidnapped the clerk for some reason?

Any history of mental illness?

But the woman kneeling on the ground is most likely the companion of the scarred man. Although it sounds unpleasant, judging from the big gold chain around the scarred man's neck, this possibility is very high.

Stereotypes are not absolutely accurate, but they are sufficient to deal with most situations, and the statistical probability is frighteningly high.

"That woman is most likely a gold digger, so she should have thoroughly investigated and understood the various conditions of her partner." Xiaoniao thought, "If he is really sick, there is no reason to be so surprised."

"Why?" The bird was still thinking.

She is actually very smart. As the child of two outstanding graduates from the University of Tokyo, she can infer a lot in an instant.

However, this kind of thinking ability is usually only demonstrated in combat.

Usually...

Usually her mind is full of what's good and what's bad about the little white rabbit, while the big monster bird's mind is full of "a hundred ways to eat the little white rabbit", so naturally "her talent and beauty are not obvious to the outside world".

Now, let’s get back to the topic and return to the front of the convenience store.

"I can't stand it anymore! You all, die!" After saying that, the scarred man seemed to have given up thinking and roared hysterically.

At the same time, he raised the kitchen knife high into the air, gathering strength for a strike, and the next moment he would pierce the throat of the female clerk - blood splattered on the spot!

The little bird frowned, and the crow in the sky flapped its wings, bursting into extreme speed.

The blood still flowed.

"Ahhhhhh!" It sounds like a hellish joke, but the female clerk's voice is still so loud, which at least shows that it is not the clerk's blood.

"Caught up." The bird murmured to itself. Outside the intersection, the bird's hands trembled slightly and a stream of blood flowed from its fingertips.

The crow blocked the fatal attack, and as it was dying, it used its equally sharp beak to deflect the kitchen knife.

"No one will die in front of me again. I have an agreement with him." The bird's eyes were particularly firm. The pain of the crow's death and the counter-injury did not even make her frown.

Those who survived must always inherit that will, and she has long been accustomed to the pain.

"I'm sorry, no matter what the reason is, I can't let you hurt anyone again."

The poisonous snake that had been lurking on the ground for a long time bypassed the crowd, jumped up, and opened its bloody mouth.

"Ah! Snakes! I am most afraid of snakes in my life!" Poor man with scar on his sturdy figure, at this moment he was crying softly like a girl seeing a bug.

The police were stunned. They didn't know where these animal friends came from. They only knew that this was obviously a good opportunity.

They rushed forward and pressed the crying man to the ground.

Seeing that the matter was over, the bird controlled the venomous snake to escape from the crime scene. After making sure that there was no one around, the venomous snake returned to its original form as a stone.

"Xiao Niao! Your hand!" The girls, who were still at a loss, were suddenly shocked when they found the blood on Xiao Niao's hand.

"It's okay, I've just been feeling a little irritated lately." The bird answered with a smile, as if it was nothing to worry about, like just sneezing.

It is true that getting angry will cause bleeding, but it should come from the nose.

"Sister Xiaoniao, you are really an incredible person."

She saves one person every ten steps and leaves no trace in a thousand miles. She does one good deed every day and hides her merits and fame.

But she didn't know that her careless use of a substitute would bring her unimaginable consequences.
