My anime/manga fandom can't be that lazy.

Hirasawa Yui pointed to the pink and white kitten plush toy at the very back of the claw machine, which should be quite in line with a girl's cute interests, and immediately attracted Akiyama Mio's attention.

"So cute...!"

Akiyama Mio couldn't resist pressing her face against the glass of the claw machine, wanting to get a closer look, but unfortunately the kitten was placed at the very back and she couldn't reach it at all.

"Alright! I'll help Mio catch him!"

Ritsu Tainaka shouted a victory cry, then inserted a 100-yen coin, and the claw machine suddenly lit up.

"Okay, keep it up!"

Ritsu Tainaka felt himself getting excited, raising his right hand high as if he were pouring all his strength into the game console.

"Oh!"

Kotobuki Tsumugi raised her little hand to cheer her on, and even Akiyama Mio was looking at the claw machine in front of her very seriously.

Ritsu Tainaka pressed the switch hard with his right hand, and then the program inside the claw machine started, and a hook with four steel claws slowly moved.

"Right now!!!"

Suddenly, Ritsu Tainaka released his right hand, and then his left hand struck out with an extremely fast speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye, as swift as lightning!

Quick! High-speed! The girl slammed her hand on the button, as if signaling the start of battle. The steel-made stone claw reacted as if electrocuted. "527"

Buzz...!

That was the sound of electricity being switched on. The four-fingered claw, like a vengeful spirit, hurtled straight towards the rag doll below, with the force of thunder and the speed of lightning!

This was Ritsu Tainaka's all-out attack. No one could dodge the girl's desperate attack. Then, the powerful grappling hook struck the top of the doll.

"Fine! Get up!!!"

The four steel claws slammed down and grabbed the cat plush toy by the neck, then tried to pull it up, but failed and released the claws.

Completely different from its previous thunderous appearance, the grappling hooks withered there like dehydrated plants.

"Ah...they didn't catch them."

Ritsu Tainaka cried out in disappointment, but she still gritted her teeth in refusal. How could she not even catch a mere rag doll? What a joke!

This is going all out!

As she spoke, the girl inserted another 100-yuan coin, and soon the grappling hook started up again, coming at the same aggressive pace as before, with nothing able to stop it.

A few seconds later, the grappling hook released weakly again, and the attempt failed once more.

"I...I lost."

Ritsu Tainaka slumped helplessly against the claw machine, having lost a full two hundred yen, only to find that the plush toy hadn't moved an inch and remained firmly in place.

"Damn it, the shady seller must have adjusted the hook's strength! Or maybe they secretly glued glue to the bottom of the doll!"

Hey, if the businesses hear you doing that, they might sue you for defamation!

I want to try it too!

As Hirasawa Yui spoke, she also inserted a 100-yen coin and tried to lift the pink and white cat plush toy, but unfortunately it remained motionless.

"Hehehe, I failed..."

Hirasawa Yui scratched her head sheepishly, clearly not expecting to fail so quickly, losing after only a few seconds on stage.

"That rag doll is being held down by several other rag dolls, so it's probably hard to pull it out, right?"

Kotobuki Tsumugi didn't act rashly. Instead, she carefully observed the position of the doll and calculated how to pull it out.

The kitten plush toy is trapped under several other plush toys, and it's unlikely to be easily pulled out using the claw machine's force.

Furthermore, the plush toy itself is quite smooth, so the claws are not strong enough to pull the kitten plush toy out directly.

"I'm sorry, Mio, I tried my best..."

Ritsu Tainaka had actually wanted to help Mio Akiyama get the doll out, but it was too difficult, so she gave up.

"I haven't played this game in a long time, let me give it a try."

As Dongfang Bai spoke, he walked up to the claw machine. Looking at Qiushan Mio's slightly disappointed expression, he guessed that she really wanted it too.

"Bai, this plush toy is stuck too deep. You can't pull it out with the claw machine's strength. You can only pry the plush toys next to it apart little by little."

Tainaka Ritsu seemed to be trying to persuade Dongfang Bai, but Dongfang Bai just smiled and shook his head. He saw a good breakthrough point.

Indeed, it's absolutely impossible to pull the kitten Ragdoll out using only the strength of the claws, so we have to find other ways to get it out.

As he spoke, Dongfang Bai casually tossed in a hundred-yuan coin, his movements light and his face smiling, as if he were just there to have some fun.

"Hum..."

In the distance, a middle-aged man in a blue uniform walked by. He also saw the scene and deliberately placed the doll in that spot.

Because the kitten plush toy is so well-made, how could it be allowed to be so easily snatched away? Of course, it needs to be placed at the bottom and weighed down.

"This location is very rare, young man. Even if 'that person' came, he might not be able to catch it."

The middle-aged man muttered to himself, seemingly very confident, because he could clearly measure the weight of the rag dolls; four one-pound rag dolls were pressing down on this kitten rag doll.

It pins down the limbs and head very precisely, so if you want to grab it in one go, you have to grab the body. But the body is already pinned down, and the claws can't lift it up with any force.

So, if you want to get this cat plush toy, only those 'top players' on the arcade leaderboard can do it, right?

Ok?

The middle-aged man watched as Dongfang Bai's grappling hook suddenly moved. The grappling hook moved very fast, completely different from the others who moved their grappling hooks slowly. He was pressing the button tightly.

The grappling hook swayed in the air due to its speed, looking like a leaf swaying on a rushing river.

suddenly!

The claws suddenly swung downwards, like a bird of prey swooping down from the air. The claws grabbed the kitten's tail, but lost their grip and ended up grabbing it to the side.

The girls from the Light Music Club clearly looked disappointed, while the staff member behind them wore a victorious smile.

But is it really that simple?

chapped.

It sounded like something was being pulled. The 4.8 hook was slowly pulling back, and you could see a tiny hook on each of the steel claw fingers.

And that thin little hook had caught something white, and upon closer inspection, that thing was...

The trademark of the rag doll!!!

Click.

The claw machine seemed to be trying to pull back, but it was stuck by the pile of plush toys and couldn't pull back.

But how strong is the machine? The force is greatest when the claw machine releases the claw and pulls it back. Now the claw has been released, but the tag is still firmly attached to the claw.

Then, an amazing scene unfolded: several plush toys above the kitten plush toy were pulled together at the same time, as if they were stuck together, one after another.

"This...!? Could this be the legendary 'Edge Tag Claw'!?"

The middle-aged staff member in the blue uniform looked astonished, a bead of sweat the size of a soybean slowly trickling down his cheek.

This is truly amazing. I never imagined that someone other than 'that person' could use such amazing claw machine skills.

Click.

The kitten plush toy was lifted up by the powerful hook, and the other three plush toys that were pressed on top of it were also lifted up at the same time.

As if by miracle, the grappling hook firmly grasped the four plush toys and lifted them up! This unscientific operation left the four girls dumbfounded.

"That's amazing..."

Tainaka Ritsu stared blankly at the inhuman scene before him. Then, Dongfang Bai, his expression unchanged, slowly led the four puppets to the exit.

Then, with a swing of its claws, the tagged kitten ragdoll lost its strength and was pulled down by gravity. All four ragdolls fell down at once.

It landed very precisely at the exit, and the kitten plush toy was knocked down by the other three plush toys. Then, Dongfang Bai simply took out four plush toys from below.

"This young man is incredibly strong!"

The staff member silently noted down Dongfang Bai's appearance and characteristics; this person would later be listed on the arcade's special 'rankings'.

"Hey."

Dongfang Bai took out a pink and white kitten plush toy from the four dolls and handed it to the stunned Qiushan Mio, making her blush and involuntarily accept it.

"What... what is this?"

Akiyama Mio clearly hadn't figured it out yet, but it was obvious that she was quite fond of the doll as she held it. If Dongfang Bai took the doll back at this moment, she would probably cry.

"This is for you."

Dongfang Bai returned a smile, then gave the remaining three dolls to Hirasawa Yui, Tainaka Ritsu, and Kotobuki Tsumugi, who all happily hugged the dolls.

However, Ritsu Tainaka's gaze towards Mio Akiyama made her a little uneasy. As her childhood friend, Ritsu could tell at a glance that Mio really liked the doll.

Because Akiyama Mio has always loved small animals since she was a child, especially dolls, she was very happy to receive a gift from a boy, but she was still very shy.

"Thank you...~"

Akiyama Mio muttered a few words under her breath. Her cute oval face was as red as a hot kettle, her cheeks and ears were flushed.

"It's okay, but Wei and the others are about to disappear, so hurry up and catch up."

Dongfang Bai chuckled and said that after the three girls who received the dolls thanked him happily, they returned to their usual selves and continued to run around the arcade.

"it is good……"
