"Yeah, that's why the band broke up because of me, and I even chose to run away... How embarrassing."
She shared many things she rarely had the chance to say to others. During this time, Nagasaki Motoyo even made breakfast and lunch for Nanami Natsuki inside the house, and thoughtfully avoided direct contact between the two of them.
"Xiaoyue, the cake I ordered has arrived, but I don't know if you'd like to come out with me tonight to celebrate the 10th anniversary of our meeting... so I can only tell you in advance."
"Xiaoyue, are you still there? Are you hungry? I'll go make you some food."
"Xiaoyue, I found an encrypted video on my phone... but I don't remember ever doing this."
"Xiaoyue, it's getting dark, but I feel like my emotions are gradually stabilizing. That other voice in my heart seems to have stopped moving. I guess... she's tired too?"
In fact, by the end of the conversation, Nagasaki Motoyo herself felt there was no need to continue. She could sense that Satsuki seemed a little tired.
That makes sense... After all, the other person had been locking themselves in their room all day and wouldn't come out, while she had been telling Xiaoyue her true thoughts that she had never wanted to tell anyone else, all in an effort to salvage this precious friendship.
You might get tired of listening to her take out the trash all the time, right?
However, Xiaoyue is really a very kind girl. From beginning to end, the other party never said a word of annoyance. It's just that Su Shi always had a feeling that Xiaoyue didn't seem to completely reject her because of her suspected mental illness.
On the contrary, they accepted these facts smoothly from the beginning and did not raise any questions.
How many minutes are left...
Nagasaki Motoyo took out her phone and glanced at the time. There was only a little time left before the agreed-upon time to bring out the cake, light some candles, and celebrate with Koyuki.
Although the two were separated by a door in the corridor and couldn't talk face to face, Su Shi felt that since she had promised to do it in the first place, she had to do it.
Even if Xiaoyue will leave after today, she should at least make sure that Nanami Natsuki's last time in her home is filled with wonderful memories.
She had heard that many people like to throw cakes around when they bring them to celebrate, but Su Shi didn't like doing that. She felt that the warmest moments should be kept warm, and throwing things around always reminded her of the anger on her father's face when he smashed things during arguments with her mother when she was a child.
It was like... the father wanted to beat the mother severely.
"Xiaoyue, wait for me a moment, I'll go prepare the cake, and you can make a wish later."
Nagasaki Motoyo stood up, walked into the living room with a smile on her face, and then carefully carried the cake on the table back home.
However, just as she reached Nanami Natsuki's door, a sudden, intense dizziness washed over her. Luckily, she managed to steady herself and avoid dropping the cake she was holding.
But... what are all these memories?!
A series of familiar yet unfamiliar memories flooded her mind: the band memories she had always doubted as to whether they had actually happened, and more specifically, the warmth she felt when she was with each of them.
Xiao Xiang, Xiao Mu, Xiao Deng, and Li Xi... everything they said and did, and the same song they sang on the same stage facing the same direction... all of it seemed like a movie playing at ten times the speed, repeating endlessly in her mind.
A strong sense of resentment and sadness grew rapidly in her heart after the broadcast of the band's disbandment, as quickly as a newborn baby growing into an adult in a single second.
Of course, she also recalled more recent memories, such as who Nanami Natsuki really was, why she would stay at her house for 10 days, and why she agreed to it.
And then there were those scenes of the two of them wrestling in the living room, the sensation of her teeth biting the brat's neck...
"Uh, Su Shi? Cough cough... Big fat pig?"
"...What are you saying, Xiaoyue? How can you talk to your sister like that? Oh right, it's time. Why don't you make a wish first?"
"Make a wish? Su Shi, are you serious?"
Upon hearing this, Nagasaki Motoyo took a long, deep breath, then slammed the cake she was holding against the door in front of her, her expression instantly turning ferocious.
"Seriously my foot! You brat, get your ass out here right now!!!"
Testimonials
Well... as is my habit, let's talk about the book itself before it goes on sale.
First, there's the issue of the number of female leads.
This book will definitely still be a harem with multiple female protagonists. All the tradable characters who have appeared so far will become future female protagonists. That is to say, Xiao Xiang, Su Shi, Chu Hua, Xiao Mu, and Li hope will all be female protagonists.
There might be more female characters in this book, and Aine will probably be added in the future. As for the other characters, I can't make any guarantees; it all depends on the specific circumstances.
Secondly, I'd like to explain the issue of the main attacker/submissive role.
Personally, I think it's a bit inappropriate to simply categorize the protagonist of this book as either a dominant or submissive character. Judging from the protagonist's character design, Nanami Natsuki doesn't really have much of an advantage in scenes involving physical contact.
However, in other aspects, such as the relative status of the two parties in verbal exchanges during a transaction, and the dominant role in discourse within an emotional relationship, the protagonist is usually able to overpower others.
This is actually because the author is not good at writing protagonists who are completely passive, too soft-hearted, and easily bullied.
Thirdly, let's talk about the specific update schedule in the days following the release and after that:
Although the author doesn't have many drafts yet... I will update 8000 words every day from tomorrow (Friday) to Sunday. However, the final chapters of this book will be released in the form of 4000 words each.
So, the first chapter (4000 words) will still be released at 11:00 AM, and the second chapter should be released at 2:00 PM.
The reason for combining the seals is that it slightly increases the average number of orders per order, which has a direct impact on the quality of future recommendations.
After next Monday, the book will resume its basic update frequency of one chapter per day (at least 4000 words), but I will try my best to ensure that the total number of words updated each month is more than 15 words (that is, more than 5000 words per day, because the website stipulates that there is a full attendance bonus for monthly updates of more than 12 words, and an additional bonus for monthly updates of more than 15 words).
After the book reaches 30 words, the author will purchase some "blades" (a type of virtual gift) from other authors to boost the bestseller list, depending on the current recommendation situation. In the month of boosting the list, the author will naturally update more than 18 words (to receive the maximum percentage of "blades" rewards, the author needs to update 18 words per month).
Next is the situation when I need to take leave. Because I will make sure that the total number of words updated in the month reaches the goal of getting extra rewards, I will not specifically indicate which chapter is on leave in the update of which day. However, I will write the approximate number of words in each chapter in the title.
As for the reward... I'll wait until I have a draft saved up before deciding (#^.^#)
Chapter 53 Here's Soyo (4000 words)
Nagasaki Motoyo found it difficult to explain her current feelings.
Rage? Resentment? Feeling deceived? It seems like all of those... but there also seems to be a trace of "nostalgia" in her heart.
After all, no matter what, the memories of these ten days wouldn't just disappear because past memories returned to her mind. She clearly remembered the ordinary yet warm daily life she shared with Nanami Natsuki during those days.
This feeling wouldn't just disappear so easily; during that period, she did feel fulfilled and satisfied because of this "new guest" in her home.
The problem is... it's all fake, a game played by the other party who's pretending to be their true self. The more beautiful those memories are, the angrier Nagasaki Motoyo becomes now that she knows the truth.
"Get out here right now! Don't worry, I promise I won't kill you!"
"Who would believe that! I...I'm not going out!"
"Enough! Nanami Natsuki, the days of you playing hide-and-seek with me using the spare key are over! Give me back the key."
"If you want it, you have to come and get it yourself. You already know this rule."
"...How am I supposed to get it if you don't open the door?"
"Why would I open the door for you if you don't take it?"
"But this is my home! You've taken over a room in my house and you still think you're right?!"
"I, Nanami Natsuki, have never been a person who reasones!"
"...As expected of you, Nanami Natsuki. You're still as shameless as ever. I don't know how you managed to keep up the act for the past ten days."
Nagasaki Motoyo pounded on the door for a long time, but there was no way she could actually break it with a hammer. The girl braced her hands on the part of the door where there were no cake crumbs, and her breasts rose and fell with her heavy breathing.
"So now I'm so happy! I finally don't have to act in front of that fat pig anymore, hoohoo~"
"Do you really think you can escape?"
Nagasaki Motoyo's lips twitched slightly, and she said with a hint of amusement to the little girl in the room, "You'll have to pee sometime, won't you? There's no private bathroom in your bedroom. I wonder if you'll come begging to me when you're really desperate."
"I'll just take care of it in bed."
"???"
Nagasaki Motoyo hadn't expected Nanami Natsuki to go to such lengths to avoid her, but after a moment's thought, she smiled and said:
"But you can't just not eat, can you?"
"..."
"See? I was right, wasn't I?"
"I can sneak away after you fall asleep."
"Do you think I'd go back to my room to sleep under these circumstances? I'll be here watching you the whole time."
"You...you...you're a pervert!"
Nagasaki Motoyo smiled. She finally understood why the voice in her heart had been so irritable before. After all... now that she heard that soft, sweet voice in the room say such harsh words, she would also want to find the owner of the voice and bring her to justice, right?
However, intimidation alone cannot solve the problem, especially since Nagasaki Motoyo knows that the other party can control some terrifying unknown forces. Although it can be roughly guessed from the current situation, Nanami Natsuki cannot use her abilities at will.
But this stalemate couldn't go on, and besides, Nagasaki Motoyo had other things she wanted to know from Nanami, in addition to giving the girl a good beating.
"Natsuki Nanami, can you give me the password to the Crychic rehearsal videos on my phone? You shouldn't lack even this much professional ethics, right?"
"...The password is your mother's birthday."
"How did you know my mom's birthday... I don't remember telling you."
Despite saying that, considering Nanami's abilities, Nagasaki Motoyo still took out her phone and entered her mother's birthday.
[Incorrect password]
"Wait, what exactly did you set?!"
"March 14th, your mother's birthday."
"My mom's birthday isn't this one, okay?" This time the password was correct, and Nagasaki Motoyo successfully unlocked the video and saw the precious data she had kept on her phone.
"That's right, my birthday is March 14th."
"...You bastard...I really gave you too much credit..."
Choosing a date with the first three digits of pi as her birthday, she thinks Nanami Natsuki's face is about to be swollen into a round shape by her.
"Fine... now you can tell me what exactly happened to Xiao Xiang, right?"
"...Are you sure you still want to know? Pfft, you've already rejected her once, so there's no point in knowing everything now, right?"
Upon hearing this, Nagasaki Motoyo, who hadn't felt anything before, suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. Indeed... just as Nanami Natsuki said, she now thought about how Sho nervously and anxiously found her that day, apologizing and begging for her forgiveness, and how Sho's father rushed over to speak up for Sho...
Damn it, why didn't I believe what Xiaoxiang's father said back then?
They must have already been deceived by that little rascal Nanami Natsuki, which is why they reminded themselves not to get too close to her back then.
What did I do at that time?
She...she actually defended this little bastard, and even threatened to call the police to arrest Xiao Xiang and Xiao Xiang's father!
How could I have done that... Xiao Xiang's father is such a good person, a model citizen who has never been to the police station, and she almost made him bear a false accusation...
She even punched Xiao Xiang's father back then. Xiao Xiang... Xiao Xiang must hate her to death, right?
Nagasaki Motoyo felt despair and regret. She wished she could go back to a few days ago, face Xiaoxiang again, and hug the girl opposite her, and make a promise with her about Crychic's rebirth.
