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

At seven o'clock in the evening.

Natsuki Amamiya was playing through "Wet Young Lady Academy" when her little finger suddenly started moving on its own.

Immediately afterwards, a message popped up on my phone.

Needless to say, it was Fujiwara Chika.

"Natsuki-kun, help me, help me, help me!"

Without pause, more messages came in all at once.

"I just finished dinner with my parents and was about to take a shower when I found an evil spirit in the bathroom with lots of eyes on its body. It was disgusting and looked like a peeping tom."

Having many eyes doesn't necessarily mean someone is a voyeur; it might just be a disguise. Spiders have so many eyes, but their 'visual organs' are actually on their legs!

"I'm so angry because I can't take a shower."

"I can only go back to my room and plan to finish my homework first."

"result!!"

"Then an evil spirit crawled under the bed right in front of me! Ugh, I really wanted to look down and see why it wanted to crawl under the bed."

"Last night too, an evil spirit was squatting on my bed, staring straight at me. I couldn't sleep at all, and it makes me so angry just thinking about it."

"..."

Girl, impressive typing speed.

Sending so many messages in just one minute—no wonder she's been single for sixteen years.

Amamiya Natsuki was only able to reply to messages at this time.

"Understood, I'll go to your house right away."

"Eh?"

"Wasn't it me who went to your room to help exorcise the evil spirit last time?"

“That’s different,” Fujiwara Chika quickly said. “Last time, Mom and Dad weren’t home, it was just me and Moeha. Today, both Mom and Dad are home.”

Natsuki Amamiya: "Good evening, Uncle and Aunt. Please entrust Chika to me."

Fujiwara Chika: "...I bit you!!!"

Because their parents are at home, it would be extremely troublesome to explain if they were caught.

The two agreed to meet at a supermarket near the Fujiwara residence, and then Natsuki Amamiya pasted the "Evil Spirits Be Gone" talisman over there.

You can only attach one ability at a time. At noon on the rooftop, the ability that Fujiwara Chika attached was 'role-playing', not 'evil spirit repelling'. That's why she was helpless against the evil spirit at this moment.

After ending the chat, Natsuki Amamiya turned off the TV, changed her clothes and shoes, grabbed her keys, and went out.

Having visited the Fujiwara residence once before, I naturally knew the way.

Speechless all the way.

As soon as Amamiya Natsuki stepped off the train, she saw a pink-haired girl standing not far away, eagerly waiting. The 'black bow' on the girl's bangs was particularly eye-catching.

"Here here."

Fujiwara Chika's eyes lit up, and she waved happily.

"Didn't we say we'd meet at the supermarket?"

Amamiya Natsuki stepped forward.

“It’s not far, and besides, shopping at the supermarket alone is definitely not as fun as shopping with someone else.” Fujiwara Chika tilted her head slightly, revealing a bright, beautiful, and charming smile. “So I came to wait for you.”

Amamiya Natsuki extended her right hand: "How was the role-playing this afternoon?"

“Oh no.” Fujiwara Chika puffed out her cheeks, her tone troubled. “Detective Conan, Magical Girl, Valkyria Chronicles, I’ve even tried platelets, but I can’t unlock any of them.”

The two naturally clasped hands and walked together toward the supermarket not far away.

Amamiya Natsuki pondered, "Perhaps the roles you play are all unreliable."

“That’s not true at all,” Fujiwara Chika retorted, raising her voice. “They are all characters and images that I like.”

Go into the supermarket.

Fujiwara Chika picked up a shopping basket with great interest.

"Wait a minute." Natsuki Amamiya turned around and looked over. "We agreed to stroll around, what are you doing with a shopping basket?"

“Since we’re already here,” Fujiwara Chika said matter-of-factly, “wouldn’t it be embarrassing to leave empty-handed without buying something?”

"Not at all."

"Anyway, I'll buy some snacks to take back, since I'm already here."

"..."

Girls seem unable to resist snacks.

Fujiwara Chika dragged the others straight to the snack section and began their rampage.

"Won't you gain weight if you buy so many snacks at once?" Natsuki Amamiya couldn't help but ask.

“We definitely won’t finish it all at once. We’ll buy it and eat it slowly at home.” Fujiwara Chika put her right hand on her hip, being exceptionally generous. “Take whatever you want to eat, it’s on me.”

"you sure?"

"determine."

"No regrets?"

"Of course not, only a puppy would go back on its word."

“Alright then.” Natsuki Amamiya took two steps forward and picked up a box of Pocky chocolate bars. “I’ll eat this.”

Fujiwara Chika blushed, quickly raised her hand to cover her pink lips, and glared at Amamiya Natsuki with puffed-out cheeks.

You still want to break the rules and bully people? I won't allow it!

"One must follow the rules." Amamiya Natsuki said without changing her expression. "I never go back on my promises, as you said."

Fujiwara Chika's pink cheeks puffed up a little more, and she suddenly opened her mouth and barked, "...Woof woof woof."

Amamiya Natsuki: "..."

"I surrender." Natsuki Amamiya raised her hands in surrender.

"Humph."

Fujiwara Chika raised her chin smugly and gave a soft hum.

It's just a puppy. When I play with Pace, we often communicate in canine language.

The "Evil Spirits Be Gone" message has been pasted.

Buy a basket of snacks.

Just as the two were about to go back, Amamiya Natsuki suddenly sensed that someone was secretly observing them.

He quickly turned his head and soon spotted a short-haired girl in the corner.

The short-haired girl shuddered in fright, quickly pulled her head back, and turned to run away.

"Isn't that Kashiwagi?" Fujiwara Chika blinked, quickly recognizing the girl's back. "It's rare to run into her at the supermarket, why is she running?"

Amamiya Natsuki raised her right hand, still holding the secretary's hand, and guessed the truth: "Probably worried about being silenced by us?"

"Eh? Eh? Eh?" Fujiwara Chika exclaimed in shock, "Killing them is such an exaggeration!"

"..."

Kashiwagi covered her pink lips and fled in a panic.

Natsuki-kun cheated on her boyfriend?!

I was with Kaguya in the afternoon, but in the evening I was holding hands with Chika-chan while shopping at the supermarket. It's unbelievable.

Kaguya-san, you've been cheated on!

Chapter 227 There are rules to playing games

9:15 PM.

Natsuki Amamiya was reading and doing practice problems when the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Good evening, senior."

The spy maid stood prettily outside the door.

"Good evening," Natsuki Amamiya said, turning around. "Come in."

Hayasaka Ai had already sent a message before coming over, so it wasn't unexpected.

"excuse me."

Hayasaka Ai stepped into the entrance hall, holding up a gift bag with both hands: "Senpai, I bought a serving of takoyaki, shall we eat together?"

"I won't eat it, I've already brushed my teeth."

Hayasaka Ai: “…”

Then eat it all and then order it again! These takoyaki are so delicious, don't you want some?

After changing into slippers, Hayasaka Ai came to the living room, knelt down by the table, and started talking about the day's events: "Thank you, senpai. The computer parts have been bought and will be sent directly home to my younger brother."

To create a younger brother out of thin air.

The spy maid clasped her hands together and looked expectantly at Amamiya Natsuki:

"This is my younger brother's first time using a computer, so he might not know how to assemble it. If he encounters any problems, he'll have to ask a senior colleague for help."

“Okay.” Natsuki Amamiya held out her hand. “Give me your hand.”

This adorable junior student's visit was undoubtedly intended to copy and paste 'evil spirits begone,' so Natsuki Amamiya got straight to the point.

"Oh."

Hayasaka Ai blushed slightly and extended her right hand.

It's all a disguise.
