People are in Mygo, and I can write their personalities.

"She should stop once she's satisfied, otherwise... not only you and Mutsu, but everything in Crychic, including that unrelated Chihaya, will suffer at that guy's hands."

"But... are you sure this is the right thing to do?"

Nagasaki Motoyo looked at Xiaoxiang with a worried expression, because she had already witnessed someone go from sharing the same hatred and fighting side by side with her to falling into the demon's web and turning their back on her.

Li hope's experience is like a series of classic cases that could be written into a book:

"Don't worry, Su Shi", "I won't be fooled by Nanami Natsuki again this time", "I'll pretend to be convinced by her first", "This is just part of my plan", "I have my own rhythm".

Lessons learned... these are lessons learned in blood.

"Xiao Xiang, please don't do this, okay? I'm really afraid that you've all been persuaded by that guy to speak up... wouldn't it be better if I helped you solve this? At least I'll always be on your side."

"..."

Shoko Toyokawa closed her eyes in anguish, pondering what Nanami Natsuki had told her yesterday, and wondering if the other woman would really be so heartless as to do something that would cause her such pain.

The result of her thinking told her that she couldn't be sure what Nanami Natsuki would do.

Reason told her that Nanami shouldn't be that kind of person, and that she would act with discretion... but her emotional side prevented Shoko from being completely rational.

"Stop talking, Su Shi, only I can solve this problem alone..."

"Then at least tell me your reasons for giving in to that kind of person!!!"

"..."

"...Sorry, Xiao Xiang, I got carried away."

"fine."

Toyokawa Shoko shook her head. She felt that her idea was indeed a bit ridiculous. Would Nanami Natsuki be such an easy person to fool?

Even if they didn't have superpowers, their lies wouldn't last long in front of them.

"I promise you, I won't forgive that kind of person, even if they're lying, I'll still feel disgusted..."

"Very good……"

"Su Shi, you...wouldn't betray everyone, right?"

"Huh?" Nagasaki Motoyo was stunned for a moment, feeling as if she had been insulted. "Sho, don't you know what kind of person I am?"

"I……"

Does she know?

Toyokawa Shoko found it difficult to say anything; she couldn't bring herself to say either "I understand" or "I don't understand."

"I understand." Finally, she could only compromise by saying something different, "Then I'll be going now..."

"Ah, okay... Xiao Xiang, you must come to me if you need anything."

"Ah."

Despite saying that, Toyokawa Shoko knew that no one but herself could make the choice she faced today.

On one side is her deceased mother, and on the other is her best friend, Wakaba Mutsu.

Choosing either side means she is abandoning another important person.

Vicious, ruthless, full of malice... none of these words are enough to describe how wicked Nanami Natsuki is. In which work would a villain not be a top-tier villain who could come up with such a choice between death and survival?

Shoko Toyokawa boarded the tram. She was very familiar with the location of Nanami Natsuki's house, and she also knew very well that even if she didn't ask in advance if the other girl was home, the girl who wanted to see her suffering would use her location ability to monitor her movements at all times.

Maybe that guy is spying on her right now, watching her move slowly while thinking about what words he should use to humiliate her later.

"Xiangzi?"

"..."

"...Xiao Xiang?"

This time, Toyokawa Shoko seemed to be certain that someone was really calling her. She turned around and saw that the person sitting between the two women was none other than Mika Sangoku Hatsuka, who had used those words to annoy her on the phone that day.

Toyokawa Shoko frowned; she had no intention of paying any attention to the other person.

Of course, she had no idea how to face Mitsukasa, and besides, she simply didn't have the energy to deal with Mitsukasa's situation right now...

"Xiao Xiang, can we be friends again?"

"……what?"

Sensing that Hatsuka's tone was somewhat different from last time, Toyokawa Shoko finally couldn't help but turn her gaze to Hatsuka.

Just as they were about to arrive at the station, seeing that Xiangzi was about to get off the train, Chuhua immediately stood up and grabbed her hand.

"Don't you no longer need me? Let me go."

"Xiao Xiang, I... I just wanted to tease you. You're the only one in my heart..." Sanjiao Chuhua's tone became very anxious.

"Really? But I still can't accept it..."

“No need.” Misaka Chuka gave a wry smile. “I don’t need you to change anything for me. Just be yourself. I just want to continue being your friend.”

"...I...I didn't say I wouldn't be friends with you, it's just the tone of your voice that day..."

"That's great, Xiao Xiang."

"..."

"Xiao Xiang, are you... going to find Nanami Natsuki?"

"What?" Toyokawa Shoko's eyes sharpened again. "You don't want me to go to her? Don't worry... I don't have the ability to cause her trouble. Rather, I'm going to deal with the trouble she creates for me."

"This……"

As if she had made a decision, Misaka Chuka grabbed Xiangzi's arm. "I'll go with you. If anything really goes wrong, I'll do what I can for you. At least... Xiangzi, can you give me a chance to make it up to you?"

A brief silence fell between them. Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Hatsuka a few times, but in the end, she couldn't bring herself to send her away.

Moreover, she does need an accompaniment who gives her some confidence, which will give her some leverage to challenge Nanami Natsuki's dominance in the upcoming meetings.

Nanami Natsuki's house wasn't far from the station. Along the way, Hatsuka kept telling her some funny stories that made her feel relaxed. Although Shoko didn't respond to her, it did make her feel much more at ease.

She had initially hesitated to back down and run away, but now she was determined to bring the wicked Nanami to justice today.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Toyokawa Shoko knocked on the door of the Nanami family.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the door was opened from the inside. However, to Xiangzi's surprise, the person who opened the door was not Nanami, but Mutsu, whose eyes looked somewhat vacant.

"Mu? What's wrong with you?!"

"She doesn't recognize you anymore, Xiao Xiang."

Nanami Natsuki's voice came from inside the room, but what she said was so terrifying, "Hatsu, well done, you didn't let this coward get away. I'll reward you properly tonight."

"Thank you, Sister Yue~"

"...Huh?"

Before Toyokawa Shoko could react, she felt her legs being kicked by the blonde girl behind her, her knees bending instantly and her position changing from standing to kneeling.

"Chu Hua...you..."

“Now it’s Sister Yue who’s talking to you.” Chu Hua’s voice seemed full of loyalty, as if she had recognized Nanami Natsuki as her only master.

"...Chu Hua, were you lying to me just now?"

"So what?"

"Why did you do this..." Toyokawa Shoko looked at Nanami, who came out of the inner room dressed in a gorgeous long dress, just like the version of her when she first met Nanami. She felt a deep sense of despair. "Hatsuka, have you forgotten the memories of when we played together when we were little? Don't you really remember anything from the past?"

"The past? The past... are you talking about the past..."

Sanko Chuka closed her eyes, seemingly still lingering over the beautiful memories of the past.

"Xiao Chu, you don't actually think this guy is really thinking about you, do you? Pfft... Xiao Xiang, if you really cared about Chu Hua that much, why would you reject her advances? Why would you not contact her when she was in the most pain?"

"Xiao Chu, wake up. You're my dog. Although as your owner I don't mind if you show compassion at this time, you need to understand that Toyokawa Shoko isn't worth your attention. Who should you care about? Tell me."

"Sister Yue...it's you...I only love you...I...I'm going to beat you to death, you stinky blue-haired brat who made me waver!"

"Xiao Chu, don't make people laugh at you like this."

Nanami Natsuki's words seemed to have switched on some kind of switch for Hatsuka, whose emotions had suddenly become agitated. There was not much anger, whether real or not, in her eyes anymore, nor much resentment or regret.

She simply looked calmly at Toyokawa Shoko kneeling on the ground, meeting her eyes:

"Toyokawa Shoko, is there anything else you want to say?"

"...There's nothing more to say. We're no longer friends."

“Hehe…” Mikasa Hatsuka suddenly laughed, then walked up to Nanami Natsuki in front of Toyokawa Shoko and knelt down, then hugged Natsuki’s leg and started rubbing against it. “I don’t need any friends, I just need Natsuki-neechan.

"I've figured it out, I understand completely now. You and the Xiang I dreamed of are not the same person at all! You've disappointed me so much, Xiangzi... But, but Sister Yue is different... She..."

"Can you stop talking nonsense, Nanami Natsuki?!"

Toyokawa Shoko got up from the ground and interrupted Mikasa Hatsuka's rant, "What exactly did you do to Mutsu? And what about my mother?!"

"Oh? It seems you're already prepared?"

Nanami Natsuki stepped on Hatsuka's head, then put her hands on her hips and looked at Shoko, who was trying to remain calm, with an extremely arrogant expression. "Just like I said yesterday, you either choose to take Mutsu away from me, or you choose to take your mother away from me."

"Of course, I can assure you that although my attitude was a bit harsh, I am still a very innocent and kind girl, and I would definitely not do anything bad to them."

"...Don't you want to check what you're doing right now?"

Toyokawa Shoko's eyelids twitched wildly as she watched Nanami, who was stepping on Hatsuka's head with her small feet clad in black stockings and rubbing them against his blond hair.

"But... Xiao Chu really likes it when I do this, right? This is my reward for being a good dog, isn't it, Xiao Chu?"

"Yes, everything about Sister Yue is the best gift."

"...Two lunatics!"

"Alright, alright, it's your turn to think it over, Xiao Xiang. I'll bring the normal Xiao Mu from your memory to you in a bit, and then wake up your mother. You need to tell me your decision within 10 minutes, otherwise, you can't take either of them with you~"

Chapter 110 Xiao Xiang, Become a Villain (7300 words)

"...You devil! You're just toying with me!"

Toyokawa Shoko suddenly looked up. The humiliation of being forced to kneel on the ground by her former friend and the repression of the past few days finally broke through the floodgates of fear.

She stared intently at Nanami Natsuki, who stood atop Hatsuka's head and looked down at her like an evil queen, her voice shrill with excitement and anger:
