Kaguya-sama: Love Is War wants me to turn myself in.

"what?"

"You were the one who chased away that evil spirit of a corporate slave at the door, weren't you?"

"..."

It turned out to be the case.

Natsuki Amamiya instantly realized the identity of the girl in front of him; she was actually the unlucky one chosen by the horror game.

"Are you a player?"

"Ah."

Just as Amamiya Natsuki was about to ask what the other party wanted to do, a fragrant breeze suddenly wafted from behind.

Immediately afterwards, a pair of arms wrapped around Amamiya Natsuki's neck, and a sweet and familiar voice rang out: "Natsuki-kun actually made other girls cry behind my back, how naughty! Tonight I'm going to drain you dry!"

Chapter 185 The Pink Lady Zhu Zhu

"Squeeze...squeeze dry?!"

The pink-haired girl was startled, and the temperature on her face rose rapidly.

What is this woman saying?

She looks like just a high school student, yet she started talking about "draining" someone, and her voice was so loud, without even blushing... She's so shameless!

"Don't blow air into my ear."

Amamiya Natsuki tensed up slightly and pushed the blonde stunner behind him away.

Turning my head, I saw that the blonde bombshell was wearing a black cosplay outfit, which subtly revealed her fair and delicate collarbone, as well as her cleavage.

Behind it are a pair of tiny devil wings, plush decorations.

There was also a swaying black tail around its waist, and upon closer inspection, the end of the tail was clearly shaped like a heart.

"What kind of character is this?"

Amamiya Natsuki couldn't help but ask.

"Devil Girl." Kitagawa Haimu put her right hand on her hip, flashed a peace sign near her eyes, and smiled brightly. "How about it?"

It's not a demon, it's a succubus!

Natsuki Amamiya glanced at her a few more times and soon felt her heart racing uncontrollably. The girl in front of her seemed to exude a captivating allure that made one want to pin her against the wall and bully her mercilessly.

The sensation is very mild; anyone with slightly stronger self-control can remain rational.

However, it cannot be denied that it has indeed had an impact on people's mental health.

so……

"Did you succeed in your role?"

Natsuki Amamiya deduced the truth.

"Hmph~ That's right." Kitagawa Kaimu raised her chin and snorted smugly, "From now on, please call me the otherworldly demon king beautiful girl."

You're such a terrible demon king, you drain people dry the moment you open your mouth!

"That line was from the game." Kitagawa Kaimu waved her hand, her gaze falling on the pink-haired girl, and she smiled brightly. "Hello, I'm Kitagawa Kaimu. Nice to meet you."

"Ah, hello..."

The pink-haired girl looked hesitant, clearly traumatized.

"Sorry, I was just joking." Kitagawa Kaimu raised her hand to her mouth and whispered, "Actually, I'm a player too."

It was because she overheard the conversation between Amamiya Natsuki and the pink-haired girl that Kitagawa Kaimu started role-playing and blurted out inappropriate remarks.

"Eh?"

The pink-haired girl's eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly realized what was happening.

Yes.

The girl in front of him suddenly hugged the boy's arm not to be coquettish, but because she saw the evil spirit of the overworked office worker.

I thought there were very few players of horror games, but I didn't expect to meet two of them right away.

"call……"

The pink-haired girl took a deep breath and bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle: "There is something I would like to ask you two for help with."

"Tell me what it is first," Natsuki Amamiya said seriously. "If we can't help, we'll pack our buckets and run away right now, and take our leave."

The game notification sounded on time.

Your role-playing level has increased; current level is 33%.

Indeed, a hero of scum must be scum.

"I was selected by the game a couple of days ago, and then..."

Having been repeatedly toyed with, the pink-haired girl had developed an immunity and began to speak softly about her situation.

To put it simply, the little girl in front of me was only selected by the game a few days ago and just completed the newbie missions. She is a cute new player who is pink all over.

All players who complete the game can see the true nature of the world, which is all kinds of evil spirits, and the pink-haired girl in front of them is no exception.

After finally completing the tutorial missions and thinking she had escaped death, the pink-haired girl suddenly saw a long, thin ghost in her house, much scarier than any monster in the game. She was nearly scared out of her wits.

That's all there is to it.

She secretly observed and discovered that the thin, ghostly figure was closely following her mother, never leaving her side. Coincidentally, her mother had been feeling unwell lately and was becoming increasingly thin.

The pink-haired girl naturally connected the two—the evil spirit must have done something to her mother, perhaps absorbing her yang energy.

If this continues, Mom will be in danger!

After witnessing Natsuki Amamiya exorcise the evil spirit, I was immediately thrilled and made up my mind to sacrifice myself to save my mother.

That's why he agreed to the shameless request to repay her with his body without hesitation.

“Kiyoshi, don’t worry. Generally speaking, as long as we pretend we can’t see the evil spirit, it can’t harm us. The same goes for ordinary people,” Kitagawa Kaimu comforted her gently. “Your mother isn’t feeling well, so she can go to the hospital for a checkup.”

During our conversation, I already learned the pink-haired girl's name.

Dried gauze leaves.

She looks petite, like a middle school student, but she is actually a second-year high school student and is currently seventeen years old.

Pity.

Amamiya Natsuki suddenly felt a pang of regret.

A seventeen-year-old high school girl can no longer flirt with the edge of breaking the law.

The pink-haired girl bit her lower lip and looked pitifully at Amamiya Natsuki: "But that evil spirit follows Mom around all day, and sometimes it even crawls on Mom."

Even though I know my mom can't see evil spirits, I'm still super worried.

"Don't worry, we'll definitely help." Kitagawa Kaimu gave a thumbs up, her voice clear and crisp. "We'll definitely help. Being chosen by the game is already bad enough, so we should help each other even more... By the way, have you joined the mutual aid group?"

The pink-haired girl blinked and asked in a puzzled tone:

"what is that?"

“It’s a mutual aid group we created, and it’s full of players we met in the game…” Kitagawa Kaimu took out her phone, “Scan this QR code and join the mutual aid group first.”

"so many people."

The pink-haired girl looked down at her phone, her eyes widening in surprise.

Amamiya Natsuki said, "The more dungeons you clear, the more people you'll meet."

"I don't want to go into the game again at all." The pink-haired girl's face turned slightly pale as she couldn't help but complain, "If I could do it all over again, I would definitely stay in bed that night and never go out."

Kitagawa Kaimu's eyes showed pity, and the little devil wings on her back fluttered gently: "Inui-san, the blanket is no longer an invincible defensive tool."

"W-what do you mean?"

“It’s simple,” Natsuki Amamiya added, “You might even encounter an evil spirit sleeping with you tonight.”

Pink-haired girl: "..."

"She's joined." Just as Kitagawa Kaimu was about to put away her phone, her gaze suddenly sharpened, and she exclaimed softly, "Eh?!"

Amamiya Natsuki turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Kitagawa Kaimu's eyes lit up as she quickly looked at the pink-haired girl: "It's actually Lady Zhu Zhu!"

"I don't know the person you're talking about..."

The pink-haired girl looked away guiltily, still wanting to deny it.

next second.

Kitagawa Kaimu had already pulled her into her arms, extremely excited: "I saw Zhu Zhu's account on your phone!"

"Let him go first," Natsuki Amamiya couldn't help but say. "A breast-killing incident is about to happen."

"..."

Chapter 186 Magical Girl Squad

"It's Lady Zhu Zhu!"

Kitagawa Kaimu released the girl from her arms, her pretty face flushed, and she was extremely excited. "Lord Zhu Zhu is a very mysterious person, and every character she cosplays is super cute!"

“Look, look, I have a collection of every single one of these photos.”

Kitagawa Kaimu took out her phone, found the photos, and shared them with Amamiya Natsuki.

"She's definitely cute." Amamiya Natsuki looked curiously at the phone, then at the pink-haired girl. "Why does it feel like there are two different people?"

“Cosplay definitely requires makeup, and photos taken from different angles can sometimes make you look like a completely different person.” Kitagawa Kaimu put away her phone and asked curiously, “By the way, why does Zhu Zhu-sama never attend anime conventions or reply to messages?”

"I only do cosplay as a hobby." Suddenly encountering her fans, Zhu Zhu was clearly a little embarrassed and turned her face away slightly. "I don't plan to let it intersect with my daily life. If someone finds out, it will definitely be troublesome."

"I understand." Kitagawa Kaimu raised her hand to cover her pink lips. "I will keep it a secret and will never tell anyone."

Amamiya Natsuki said from the side:
