Machete Style Anime

"Kasugano, before you transferred schools, when I was invited by Sora to your house, I saw you playing games. But I remember that the game account you played back then wasn't the one you have now. Am I remembering wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Kasugano Mirai casually replied, "Even a cunning rabbit needs three burrows, so what's wrong with me opening a few more accounts?"

"..."

"I often play with Xiaoqiong and Hui on that account. If I still use that account, they can contact me through the game. What's the point of me leaving Tokyo then?"

"...When did you learn Chinese? I've never heard Xiaoqiong and Hui mention it?"

"Don't tell me you haven't studied it. When we played together, even though I couldn't read the words you typed, I could still tell if they were Chinese."

Kasugano Mirai looked at her with a "surprised" expression: "Why do you need to learn such a simple language?"

"No way? No way? There really isn't someone who can't learn Chinese after just one look?"

Yes, it's the old Versailles.

But he forgot one thing.

"Hi~!"

A sudden pain in his lower back made someone who was hopelessly addicted to Versailles gasp, making an outstanding contribution to global warming.

Looking down, sure enough, his girlfriend was nonchalantly withdrawing her hand.

He belatedly realized that although his girlfriend could speak Chinese, it had taken her a long time to learn it.

After all, the difficulty of the Chinese language has been proven by people all over the world.

Although his intention was to tease Eriri, he accidentally made a sweeping generalization, and he could only accept his own wrath for being retaliated against by his girlfriend.

Eriri, of course, couldn't see the interaction between the two under the table. From her perspective, what she saw was Kasugano Mirai suddenly looking at his girlfriend beside him while he was talking, and the other girl gave him an incredibly gentle and sweet smile.

At that moment, she suddenly felt a little full and choked, and wanted to burp.

As a single woman who has been single for seventeen years, Eriri was furious when someone publicly flirted with her.

While the two were having a sweet moment together, she took out her phone, secretly opened someone's chat interface under the table, and blindly typed a message.

"Err: Megumi, avoid Kosora and come to this location in Akihabara [xxxx]. I have good news for you."

After sending the message, she casually put away her phone, a hint of schadenfreude creeping into her gaze as she looked at Kasugano Mirai.

"Even though Hui doesn't like you, you're still childhood friends."

"If your girlfriend finds out you have such a beautiful childhood sweetheart, even if you say it's okay, it's uncertain whether she'll believe you."

"Besides, she and Xiao Qiong are such good friends, she probably wouldn't mind cooperating with me in a play, even if it's just to help Xiao Qiong get revenge."

…………………………………………………………………………

When she received the message from her friend, Megumi Kato was reading a book in her bedroom.

After reading the message from her friend, she didn't rush to reply. Instead, she opened the navigation map and entered the address her friend had sent her.

The address that appeared on the map interface afterwards gave her eyes a strange gleam.

Akihabara? A maid cafe?

"Given Eriri's personality, going there wouldn't be a problem, but making me go without Sora... could it be that she's planning to reveal her identity as a doujinshi illustrator to me?"

With that in mind, she began editing her reply.

MK: We'll arrive in about an hour.

After sending the message, the girl put away her phone, returned the book to the bookshelf, and then took her change of clothes downstairs to the bathroom.

Here's a little-known fact: when girls are resting at home on weekends or holidays, they usually don't care much about their appearance, but once they choose to go out, showering, washing their hair, and putting on makeup are basic procedures.

……

……

……

Twenty minutes later, Kato Megumi, wrapped in a bath towel, returned to the bedroom. While drying her still dripping hair with a towel, she opened the wardrobe with one hand and began to choose clothes to wear when going out.

……

"This is too fashionable; it's not suitable for a place like Akihabara."

……

"This color is too dark."

……

"This one is too light in color."

……

Generally speaking, dressing up is a very time-consuming thing for girls.

Besides the time spent on dressing up itself, the difficulty in choosing clothes can also take up a lot of time.

If Eriri hadn't overslept in the morning, she probably would have spent just as much time getting dressed as Kato Megumi does now.

Ten minutes later, Kato Megumi stood in the bedroom wearing an elegant, fitted dress. Her bare, fair shoulders accentuated her slender figure, and her long, beautiful legs, encased in white lace over-the-knee stockings, were particularly eye-catching.

"Well, that should be fine. Let's leave it at that."

Because of her unremarkable nature, Kato Megumi doesn't have the same inexplicable obsession with makeup as Japanese women.

After applying light makeup and checking her appearance in the full-length mirror in the room, the girl nodded almost imperceptibly.

"It's time to go."

…………………………………………………………………………

Maid cafe.

Kasugano Mirai stared strangely at her girlfriend and Eriri, who were chatting enthusiastically.

He's not the domineering type; if his girlfriend gets along well with other girls, he'll just be happy for her.

The problem now is that Eriri will occasionally take out her phone to check while chatting, and she will also look towards the door when she hears the voice of the cafe maid.

With such an obvious reaction, how could he not guess that the blond guy had made an appointment with someone else?

Considering the scope of her social circle and the people she met today, is there even a question of who they were?!

He didn't believe his girlfriend couldn't see through the other man's intentions, but she chose to turn a blind eye and cooperated with his attempts to stall for time.

One side deliberately tries to please the other, while the other tries to stall for time, constantly finding topics to talk about, and they end up having a lively conversation.

With a lot of unspoken thoughts stuck in her throat, Kasugano Mirai hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.

After repeating it several times, he successfully forgot what he was going to say.

"Never mind, Megumi has already met Kurumi and the others, so it doesn't matter if she comes."

"It might be a bit early for Xiaoqiong, but she'll find out sooner or later anyway, so consider this a way of getting used to it."

With this in mind, he gradually calmed down, took out his phone, and started playing games.

While Kurumi Tokisaki was chatting with Eriri, she kept an eye on her boyfriend's reaction out of the corner of her eye.

Seeing her boyfriend hesitate several times before speaking, she knew he had already discovered the problem.

She naturally chose to ignore the hints her boyfriend sent her several times, having already entered "fun mode."

She thought her boyfriend would cause some trouble and make things difficult for her, but after his expression changed several times, he started playing games again.

"He already guessed what the girl was doing, and he could tell I was deliberately stalling for time. His composure under these circumstances suggests he's already figured out a solution."

To be honest, Tokisaki Kurumi was quite curious about how her boyfriend would solve this problem, so she was full of anticipation when she chatted with Eriri later.

A while later, the coffee shop door was pushed open again.

"Hello, Master! Welcome back!"

As the maids greeted her, Eriri turned around to look behind her once again.

This time, her face was beaming with a bright smile.

"here!"

Keeping the volume at a level that could be heard from the doorway but wouldn't annoy others in the cafe, the girl kept waving to her friend.

The person who arrived was none other than Kato Megumi.

Hearing her friend's voice, she looked over.

But soon, her attention was drawn to the two people sitting opposite her friend.

"In the future, there will also be that extraordinary girl, Kurumi Tokisaki."

As her thoughts raced, she arrived at the location where the three people were.

"Hui, sit next to me."

Eager to see what was going on, Eriri stood up and pulled out a chair for her friend.

Kasugano Mirai found his sycophantic behavior hilarious.

"Just how much does this guy want to see me make a fool of myself?!"

But then he thought about it again. The other person had called him "dad" before, and he later found out it was a misunderstanding.

Given how embarrassing he was, it's not hard to understand why this person, who's very concerned about saving face, would want to see him make a fool of himself.

It's okay to embarrass yourself. As long as everyone embarrasses themselves, we'll even things out, and no one should laugh at anyone else.

After Kato Megumi sat down, she greeted Tokisaki Kurumi in her usual emotionless voice: "Ms. Tokisaki, it's been a long time."

Before Kurumi Tokisaki could say anything, Eriri slowly typed a question mark.

?

No, I asked you to come here to help Xiao Qiong catch her cheating. So you two already knew each other?

Are you really Xiaoqiong's best friend?

Although Eriri didn't speak, everyone understood what she wanted to express from her eyes at that moment.

At this moment, Tokisaki Kurumi smiled and cleared up her confusion: "Ms. Kato and I just met last weekend."

Upon hearing this, Eriri was completely stunned.
