Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

The culprit sat behind her, carefully combing her hair.

They could have gone outside to do it, but they insisted on doing it in the bathroom.

"Does it hurt?"

"Be gentle, don't use too much force when you insert it."

When dealing with tangled hair, it's best to gently loosen it with your hands before tackling it further.

Roughly combing your hair will only break the strands and cause pain.

Girls' hair is particularly troublesome to manage, and Ziyao had considered whether to cut it shorter.

But she really likes long hair, so let's just forget about it.

When it was time to sleep, Mei hugged her pillow and wanted to sleep together, but Ziyao refused, citing the need to avoid suspicion.

Although they had a deep discussion about physiological health care, Ziyao's idea was clear from the beginning.

— She was still unable to reciprocate Mei's feelings.

It's despicable to dangle someone's emotions in a murky, ambiguous way.

Ziyao doesn't want to be someone who plays with other people's feelings.

Therefore, she chose to refuse.

Mei, however, didn't care and instead earnestly stated that she would make Ziyao fall in love with her again.

Volume 1: Chapter 95 Kiana on the Boundary Line (Part 2)

Have a good night's sleep.

Get up and take a shower.

The girl took out a wooden comb from the dressing table and tidied her messy hair while looking in the mirror.

[Ding! You currently have 4471 crystals]

After completing the Jizo Mitama event and exchanging for the Fox Mask, the system also gave an extra 900 crystals.

After careful consideration, Ziyao decided to enhance her puppeteer talent.

[Ding! 3000 crystals have been spent to upgrade the Puppeteer to level 4!]

Unlock Ability: Remote Control

This allows her to use the doll regardless of distance limitations, which is very important.

As her true form, she is far too fragile.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Yinrou was physically weak and easily pushed over... which perfectly matched her condition.

If distance is further restricted, it would undoubtedly be even more dangerous.

"Completely destitute..."

Click on the giveaway, today's featured character is [Secondary Silverwing], and the doll featured on the homepage is [Secondary Silverwing].

Ziyao is very confident in her luck; it's impossible for her to draw the featured character.

The warehouse only contained fragments of cherry blossoms, cheering sticks, and a strange packet of pink floral tea... they were dirt poor.

The most important thing when drawing cards is to have a relaxed mindset; the lower your expectations, the less disappointed you will be.

I took one shot just to test the waters, and the next second, a golden flash—

Rarely, she drew something good.

[Ding! Congratulations on winning *＆%￥? ? /?.....]

The system froze for a moment, and the screen abruptly stopped.

After a while, the system recovered and a crisp sound rang out.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining Theresa's Night Stargazing]

Introduction: "A thousand-year promise, fulfilled in a fleeting moment."

Special: No consumption, no durability.

In terms of rarity, this doll is classified as gold.

Even the panel is different from others, and the materials required for repair and maintenance are at least three times that of other materials.

Strangely, the notes indicate that the doll seems to be usable indefinitely.

"Knock knock knock—"

There was a knock on the door.

As I opened the door, a faint fragrance wafted through the living room.

Mei got up early and prepared breakfast for everyone.

"Amusement park admission ticket?"

"Sorry, Bronya has other things to do today. Kiana, please find someone else."

Yesterday, when Kiana was shopping, she randomly picked up a few scratch cards and unexpectedly won prizes on them all. Her luck was truly enviable.

So she wanted to find someone to go with her.

It's just that no one has much time.

Bronya needs to adjust the Heavy Bunny, Mei has to do daily training, and Theresa has work to do...

"Is today a holiday?"

The breakfast dishes, though not lavish, were more refined than usual.

"Eat more, these are all nutritious dishes."

Mei moved her chair and sat down next to Ziyao, placing the bacon into the girl's bowl.

Her beautiful nails were deliberately cut much shorter, and she wore no makeup, maintaining a natural beauty.

"Not to your liking?"

"It's delicious, thank you very much."

Faced with Mei's enthusiasm, Ziyao glanced around, as if no one had noticed yet.

Upon hearing this, Mei simply nodded slightly, seemingly indifferent to the praise she often received.

However, her light movements betrayed her true thoughts; she was actually very happy.

Since Ziyao has forgotten what happened before, why not just start the process of winning her over again?

Mei could already foresee what life would be like after they became lovers.

This time, she will absolutely not let go.

..

After finishing our meal, it was almost time for class.

Ziyao is no longer a teacher, but a student at the academy.

As the students entered the lecture hall, they thought a lecturer had come to give a lesson, but to their surprise, Ziyao sat in one of the students' seats.

The view from the window on the left is just right.

Mei wanted to sit with them, but because it was late, Kiana had already taken their seats.

The girl slumped over her desk, looking utterly dejected. Aside from the moment she learned she had won the lottery, she seemed listless for almost the entire morning.

"You idiot Kiana, if you don't pay attention in class you'll fail again at the end of the semester."

"Also, the class monitor is back. If you don't want to be made to attend extra classes..."

Fu Hua is known for her strictness, and Kiana is most afraid of being dragged into extra classes by Fu Hua, so Bronya often uses this to urge her on.

Unexpectedly, the method that had always worked suddenly stopped working today.

Kiana seemed to have not slept well last night, as she had faint dark circles under her eyes.

She didn't sleep; instead, she stared blankly at the sky outside the window.

The girl would occasionally steal glances at Ziyao, and Bronya noticed it all.

"Are you having relationship problems?"

she asked quietly.

Kiana rarely appears so sullen; she's usually as breezy as a breeze, coming and going quickly, unlike today.

Recalling the idyllic scene in the infirmary, this is the most likely answer.

"H-How could that be? I don't like Ziyao at all..."

Kiana glanced at Ziyao secretly, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Bronya will keep it a secret, don't worry."

Only she and Theresa knew about their relationship.

Although she felt somewhat ashamed for keeping it from Mei, Bronya thought it was better to leave the choice to Kiana.

"I've already said it's not the kind of relationship you're thinking of..."

The more she explained, the more confused she became. Kiana was certain that she had absolutely no romantic feelings for Ziyao.

Last night, my words of confession failed to stir up the slightest emotional reaction.

Perhaps because she cared too much, she spent the entire night pondering those words and questioning what Celine had said.

"Bronya, what if one day I become everyone's enemy?"

"Idiot Kiana wouldn't do anything to make everyone sad."

Bronya concluded.
