"Is that so... Thank you, Nanami."
Chu Hua didn't know whether she should believe this statement, but she figured she had no other choice but to believe it now.
She disliked the feeling of having her two biggest secrets known to others, but as someone struggling alone in Tokyo, she knew very well that if there were things she couldn't change, she could only adapt and accept them.
And Nanami Natsuki just happens to be the person worth catering to; the supernatural abilities she displays will definitely help her fulfill many of her ideas and desires.
"So is there anything I can do to help you...?"
Not yet, but it should be soon.
The date she made the deal with Su Shi was March 24th, and today is March 26th. There are still a little over 7 days until the agreed date, which means... she must leave Su Shi as soon as possible before April 3rd.
"Oh, by the way, there is something you can do to help me right now."
"what's up?"
"Keep an eye out for suitable customers, those who have a strong desire for certain people or things, or even those who are willing to give up something equally important in order to fulfill their desires."
"...I see."
There are quite a few people like this in the entertainment industry. She seems to know only a few newcomers who have just debuted and have a strong desire to become famous, but lack the talent or opportunity.
"But... I don't have your abilities, how can I get them to believe me?"
"It's okay, you don't need to worry about that. You just need to arrange to meet them at any coffee shop, then contact me to come over. I'll be listening to your conversation from the next seat. Just put on your headphones and follow my instructions."
"Okay... I think I understand."
After explaining some specific details and teaching conversation skills, Nanami Natsuki left.
Chu Hua, who was sitting on the sofa hugging a cushion, seemed to still be unable to shake off the shock from before. She stared blankly for a long time before finally sighing resignedly.
Since fate arranged for her to meet Nanami Natsuki and learn about her abilities through it... then this is an opportunity she must seize.
It must be said that Mitsumi Hatsuka has a certain talent for acting. In the following days, in order to get Nanami's help as soon as possible, she tried every means to find a suitable trading partner.

There are more than just her and Mana signed with the agency. Of course, Mana could never become Nanami Natsuki's client. After all, according to Nanami Natsuki, the people she needs to find must be like her, people who are extremely insecure and lack confidence in certain aspects.
She does know people like that, most of whom she has a casual relationship with. Some are junior colleagues from the same agency, while others are friends she met while participating in entertainment activities.
As for the guilt of doing these things... Chu Hua was a little worried on the first day, but after seeing those people get what they wanted, the guilt completely disappeared.
"Xiaoyue, can you even take away a person's sleepiness...?"
Today is the fourth day. Over the past few days, Chu Hua has talked to almost everyone she knows who is qualified to be Nanami Natsuki's customer.
Several people declined before even meeting up, saying they didn't believe in the supernatural things Chu Hua talked about; of course, there were also those who did believe... and these people were often the kind of people who were very easy to manipulate.
Most of these transactions involve them demanding certain talents from the traders that they deem worth giving up, while in return, Nanami removes certain flaws that are difficult to change from these individuals.
Things like laziness, low self-esteem, and emotional instability...
Speaking of which, there was a girl who aspired to be the most popular idol. In order to control her figure once and for all, she sacrificed her singing talent and had Chu Hua remove her extra appetite.
When asked why they did this, the other party's answer was quite surprising:
"My agency's current role for me is just to be the visual centerpiece. I haven't had any opportunities to sing in a long time, and there are plenty of people in the entertainment industry who can sing better than they can sing. I've never thought it was a wise choice to give up my current opportunities to pursue that naive dream I once had."
Of course, apart from this person whom Chu Hua thought was somewhat self-destructive, the one she had just talked to about the deal was the complete opposite.
The girl felt that what she lacked most was time, so she sacrificed her beautiful memories with her first love to have Chu Hua remove a third of her drowsiness.
In other words, she can reduce her daily sleep time to one-third of what it used to be, and use the free time to work towards her dreams.
Chu Hua never expected that when Nanami Natsuki heard the other party ask for "time," she would propose such a bizarre deal.
"Why not?" Nanami Natsuki said smugly.
"Even if it were possible... the problem is, wouldn't the price others offer be very useful to you? Tanaka's memories of her first love... what use are they to you?"
"It's no use, but she'll definitely start crying for no reason in the future, feeling like she's lost something important, regretting it but not knowing why. That's the kind of reaction I want to see."
"...You're a devil."
Although that's what she said, Chu Hua felt that she wasn't much better off herself.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Chu Hua, you've helped me a lot these past few days. In return, I'll give you some information."
"What intelligence?"
Chu Hua's eyes lit up because she knew that Nanami Natsuki was definitely going to tell her something about Xiao Xiang.
"You must have run into Toyokawa Seikao these past few days, right?"
"yes……"
"Actually, he is Toyokawa Shoko. Shoko and her father have now switched bodies~"
“…Huh?” Misaka Hatsuka was suddenly stunned, unable to process the enormous amount of information hidden in Nanami Natsuki’s words for quite a while.
"That's all, I'm going home now. Don't contact me for the next few days, and stop looking for trading partners for now."
"Wait, wait a minute..."
However, Nanami Natsuki had no intention of explaining further; her small body disappeared in the blink of an eye, just like a rabbit.
What a joke... If she said a few more words, she was afraid that a certain Xiangzi fan would offend her.
However, upon returning to the Su family home, Nanami Natsuki did not immediately recount her gains over the past few days. Although she had acquired the talents and flaws of many people, her emotional points had not increased significantly.
These items were actually just bait she would use later to lure people who had more popcorn value.
But before that... she has to deal with another problem first.
That's running away!
"Xiaoyue... what are you doing?!"
Having just finished showering, Nagasaki Motoyo heard some noises coming from the next room. She quickly opened the door and saw Nanami Natsuki, who had been coming home very late these past few days, seemingly packing her luggage.
"Forehead……"
Nanami Natsuki's attempt to flee overnight was caught red-handed, which was obviously very embarrassing.
"Are you leaving...? Why? Did I do something wrong?"
"Of course not... Sister Su Shi, you've been very good to me, that goes without saying." Nanami Natsuki wiped away non-existent cold sweat. "But as I said before, I'll only stay here for 10 days. After all, I've already caused you a lot of trouble, Sister Su Shi, and I really feel a bit guilty."
"It hasn't even been ten days yet!"
Nonsense! It'll be too late if it takes 10 days!
However, Nagasaki Motoyo had no idea what Nanami was really thinking. She was just a little anxious, and a voice inside her was telling her... she must not let the girl in front of her get away like this.
As for why... it's probably because Nanami Natsuki has become a very important person to her, right?
Deciding to follow her heart, Su Shi rushed over and hugged Nanami Natsuki's delicate body, then began to act helplessly as a typical young girl, "No, I will never let you leave. As long as Natsuki doesn't leave, I will do anything."
"I……"
"Xiaoyue, are you worried that I'll be retaliated against by Fengchuan Xiangzi and the others? After all, you were the one who hinted beforehand that they were a bunch of liars, and judging from what they said, they're definitely looking for an opportunity to get revenge on you... Oh, I see, were you bullied by them while I was away these past few days?!"
"N-no..."
Nanami Natsuki tried to struggle, but she found that Suze was much stronger than her, and she couldn't escape his clutches no matter what she did.
"Don't lie to me anymore, I understand." Nagasaki Motoyo gently stroked Nanami Natsuki's face. "I said I would protect you, and I will. Starting tomorrow, I will not learn any self-defense techniques for women."
"Really?" Nanami Natsuki was a little happy to hear this.
"Hmm... Starting tomorrow, I'll be keeping an eye on you every second, so you won't suffer any retaliation from others when I can't see you."
"..."
Chapter 39 The Idea King of the Moon Forest (1/2)
"Don't be upset, Xiaoyue, you can't escape."
"W-what?"
Early in the morning, Nanami Natsuki had just gotten out of bed and was still in a daze when she saw Nagasaki Motoyo cleaning her room like a caring mother.
But why did this big thunder sow start with such a frightening opening line? It scared her right back to her senses!
"Actually, I'm Toyokawa Shoko's friend. You dare to slander my best friend? Do you think I'll let you get away with this?"
Nagasaki Motoyo squinted, threw away the broom in her hand, and climbed onto Nanami Natsuki's bed. Two landmines were pressed against Nanami's face, making her feel like she couldn't breathe and was about to suffocate.
Her hands were held by Nagasaki Motoyo, but their fingers were interlocked, which, from a certain perspective, gave the scene a slightly ambiguous feel.
But the problem is... it shouldn't be like this!
Aside from the personality fragments that Nanami Natsuki collected from random passersby over the past few days, Suze's memories and obsessions are still safely stored in her "warehouse," so there's no way the other party could recall them!
"Hehe, you got fooled, didn't you?"
"Huh?"
"Today is April Fool's Day, I was just playing a joke on you. Sure enough... Xiaoyue, your shocked look is really cute."
Nagasaki Motoyo released Nanami Natsuki's small hand, then cheerfully explained while tidying up the slightly messy bed:
"Speaking of which, school starts in about a week... It's a pity, Xiaoyue, it would be great if you could come to study in Moon Forest."
"Wait...you just said...those were just April Fool's jokes?"
"if not?"
"..."
What a glorious reputation you've built! That despicable Nagasaki Motoyo, Nanami Natsuki will never let you get away with this.
But since it's already April 1st, it means... the 10-day agreement really doesn't seem to have many days left.
Nanami Natsuki's original plan was actually very simple: to run away before the 10-day deadline arrived, so that even if she would suffer retaliation from Nagasaki Motoyo afterward, at least it would be difficult for the other party to find her where she was.
Even if Su Shi knew that she would go to Hanasaki River in the future, the problem is that her top henchman, Shiina Ritsuki, is also in Hanasaki River!
Of course, Riki couldn't be completely sure either, but at least Nanami Natsuki was certain that she was safe.
But it's hard to say now.
"Xiaoyue, are you on the morning shift or the afternoon shift today?"
"This afternoon, I guess."
