Crack!
Nagasaki Soyo gritted her silver teeth, and the cold drink cup in her hand suddenly let out a mournful wail that it could not bear the weight.
"Excessive! Too excessive!"
"That guy is not only deceiving Togawa-chan's feelings, but he's actually living off Togawa-chan?!"
"…"
At the same time.
In the toilet.
Kitahara Makoto looked at the notification that the mission had been completed that popped up on the System, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Good fellow, did I get a double crit?"
Living off her is naturally fake.
While he was shopping with Tsundere Young Miss, Togawa Sakiko was meeting with ghost Senpai's father and successfully received the promised reward in advance.
In order to break Nagasaki Soyo's defense, Kitahara Makoto asked Togawa-san to send the above message when transferring the money. Although Togawa Sakiko didn't understand what it meant, she finally agreed to it under Kitahara Makoto's entanglement.
So... Nagasaki Soyo's defense was directly broken.
After simply washing his face, Kitahara Makoto left the bathroom and sat down opposite Nagasaki Soyo:
"Sorry for the wait."
"It's okay..."
The smile on Nagasaki Soyo's face was a little bit forced, and she bit her lower lip and said, "Thank you very much today, Kitahara-kun. My mom just sent me a message saying that she wants me to go home early today."
There were originally follow-up plans, but the breaking defense effect of the text message just now was too strong, and Nagasaki Soyo could not muster any interest now. She just wanted to go home and hug herself.
Kitahara Makoto picked up his phone and glanced at it, and smiled:
"It just so happens that I have other things to do too, so let's call it a day."
Ahhh! Damn it!
He's smiling so happily, it must be because he saw Togawa-chan's transfer message!
What advantages does this guy have besides being good-looking?
I haven't even been able to eat the food that Togawa-chan made...
After finishing the cold drinks.
The two parted ways.
Kitahara Makoto boarded the train and headed to the commercial street.
"Ohayo~"
Kita Ikuyo raised her right hand and greeted him happily. The girl's red hair was particularly bright in the setting sun, and there was also a Bocchi-chan next to her.
"Is Kitahara-kun done with his business?"
Kita Ikuyo raised her eyes and looked over, her voice crisp and bright.
"It's already settled."
Kitahara Makoto nodded, and found that one blue-haired girl was missing, "Where is Togawa Sakiko?"
Kita Ikuyo said in a clear voice:
"Just now at Tsukinomori Academy, after Togawa Sakiko finished talking to Shen Tian-sensei, she suddenly showed a very excited expression, and then said that she had very important things to do, so she left first, leaving me and Bocchi-chan to take care of ghost Senpai."
That was when the reward was credited. It seems that this money is of great significance to Miss Fallen Ojou-sama, but it is probably not enough if she wants to revive her declining family.
"Then let's ignore her."
Kitahara Makoto looked at the two girls, "ghost Senpai, is there any place you want to go today?"
"No."
Ghost Senpai's voice sounded lightly, "I just need you to take the initiative to possess me when eating food."
The murderer has not been caught yet, so ghost Senpai has naturally not become a Buddha, so she still wants to possess and eat and drink, and enjoy life again.
"It's still early..."
Kitahara Makoto looked at the setting sun in the sky and suggested, "Let's go catch dolls?"
"Eh?"
Kita Ikuyo's eyes lit up, "Kitahara-kun is going to catch dolls?"
Gotō Hitori also raised her small face and looked over curiously.
Kitahara Makoto would naturally not say that it was just a System mission. He said with a serious face:
"When I was sleeping last night, I dreamed that a mysterious voice told me that as long as I could catch enough ninety-nine dolls, I would be able to summon the dragon and then fulfill all my wishes."
"Eh, eh, eh?"
Kita Ikuyo widened her eyes and couldn't help but complain, "Why is it ninety-nine dolls, isn't seven enough?"
Kitahara Makoto said without changing his expression: "Because I am more greedy and made a lot of wishes... Kita-san, do you know where there are claw machines?"
"Umm~"
Kita Ikuyo put her hands on her waist, raised her chin triumphantly, and a delicate little tiger tooth was faintly visible at the corner of her mouth, "Then you have come to the right person, come with me, come with me."
"…"
A moment later.
The three came to an entertainment city, and when they entered, they saw rows of claw machines, which were quite lively.
"How is it, isn't this place great?"
Kita Ikuyo raised her head triumphantly, with an expectant expression on her face that said 'come and praise me'.
Kitahara Makoto said with a straight face: "It's really good. Thanks to Kita-sama, I was able to find such a good place."
"Ehehe~"
Kita Ikuyo, who was praised, immediately became happy.
Kitahara Makoto turned his head and looked at Bocchi-chan, who was following beside him like a little tail, and said softly:
"Hitori-chan, what kind of doll do you like?"
"Eh?"
Gotō Hitori blinked her eyes, stammered and said in a low voice, "I don't have a favorite doll..."
"Don't have one?"
Kitahara Makoto lowered his voice and said, "Then I'm going to shout that Guitar Hero-sensei is super cute."
"D-don't shout!"
Gotō Hitori's small face quickly turned red, and she hurriedly looked over pitifully.
Being praised for being cute in public... I'm going to faint, right?
I'm definitely going to faint, right!
Kitahara Makoto said softly:
"Then hurry up and take a look at what kind of doll you like."
"Hmm…" Bocchi-chan had no choice but to cautiously peek around, observing the claw machines. Before long, her gaze was drawn to a cartoon dinosaur not far away, and she said softly, her face flushed, "That dinosaur is very cute…"
"It is indeed very cute." Kitahara Makoto followed her gaze. "It matches Hitori-chan's pajamas very well."
"Eh?" Kita Ikuyo had approached at some point, her face a picture of curiosity. "Kitahara-kun has actually seen Bocchi-chan in pajamas? How unfair, I haven't seen her like that!"
Bocchi-chan's face quickly turned red, and she waved her hands in a panic to explain: "It, it was an accidental photo that day…"
"Eh eh eh?" Kita Ikuyo gasped, covering her pink lips in shock. "Bocchi-chan is actually that bold, daring to send pajama photos to a boy privately?"
"…"
Steam was already rising from Gotō Hitori's head, and she was dizzy, about to collapse.
"It's just an ordinary photo." Kitahara Makoto said calmly, "If you want to see Hitori-chan's pajamas, you can see them tonight."
"Of course I want to see them." Kita Ikuyo put her hands on her hips and said in a clear voice, "Good friends share blessings and hardships, so of course, I'm going to stay with Bocchi-chan tonight!"
This Kita was full of curiosity and wanted to stay over last night, but it was too late and inconvenient. Today, she had clearly made up her mind to closely protect her best friend.
There's no need to elaborate on the process of clawing dolls.
Kitahara Makoto had been completing various daily tasks during this period, and his abilities such as eyesight and skill had greatly improved. Clawing dolls just happened to require eyesight and skill, so after a few attempts and finding the patterns, Kitahara Makoto quickly clawed out the first small dinosaur doll.
"Hitori-chan, here you go."
Kitahara Makoto bent down, took out the small dinosaur doll, and handed it to Bocchi-chan.
Gotō Hitori shook her head and shyly refused: "I, I don't want it…"
"Don't want it?" Kitahara Makoto raised an eyebrow slightly. "Then I'll have to shout that Guitar Hero is super cute."
"Ugh…"
Little Miss Anxiety had no choice but to reluctantly agree, taking the dinosaur doll with a flushed face and holding it in her arms.
Next came the second, the third… Once you master the technique, clawing dolls is actually not difficult.
Bocchi-chan knew she couldn't refuse, so she could only take the dolls into her arms one by one with a flushed face. The feeling of being surrounded by dolls quickly made Little Miss Anxiety secretly reveal a happy expression.
"Kitahara-kun is so biased…" A resentful voice sounded beside them. Kita Ikuyo looked pitiful. "All the dolls you caught were given to Bocchi-chan; I didn't get a single one."
"Here." Kitahara Makoto casually handed her a doll. "Didn't you just say that dolls you caught yourself are cuter?"
"But I can't catch any…" Kita Ikuyo took the doll, and a bright smile quickly appeared on her pretty face. "Thank you, Kitahara-kun."
"…"
A moment later.
The daily task of clawing dolls was quietly completed.
Kitahara Makoto eagerly started the lottery.
