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

Several lines extend from Xiangzi's photo, each representing a member of Crychic, with a brief comment written next to each person's photo.

Su Shi had seen these photos; each person's image was taken from the rehearsal video she had shown to Nanami before.

For Su Shi, the photo she most wanted to examine closely was her own picture, and it was the only one that was filled with words that raised her blood pressure: "Big Thunder Sow," "Stupid and Violent," and "Successfully Destroyed Her Relationship with Xiangzi."

Next to Li hope's sign was written the words "The plan is in progress".

Of course, Xiangzi herself, who is at the very center of this whiteboard, not only had her photo marked with many blood-red crosses, but also had a sentence written next to it.

Unlike himself, there was only a lonely sentence next to Xiangzi's picture:

"I want to reclaim the life that is rightfully mine!"

However, Su Shi remembered that the last time she came here, the whiteboard didn't seem to have been placed here yet.

That makes sense... At that time, Nanami Natsuki certainly wouldn't have let her know these secrets, so she had already hidden them beforehand.

Su Shi was unaware that the contents of this whiteboard did not exist when she first came here.

To be precise, the photos and words on the whiteboard were prepared by Nanami Natsuki after she left the Su family this morning. She spent some time preparing them, but even Nanami Natsuki didn't expect that Xiangzi would be taken back by her family so quickly.

How can we not make good use of this?

If she pretends to be Xiao Xiang, the favorite of Da Lei's sow, she'll see if he still dares to be violent towards her!

"Xiao Xiang... these can't all be true, can they?"

After seeing the contents of these photos, even Riki, who was acting alongside Nanami, couldn't help but believe the contents and what Nanami had just said.

Yes, if that's the case... then everything makes sense.

Moreover, if all of this is true, then it's not entirely incomprehensible why Nanami Natsuki would be so twisted. In short, her guilt as an accomplice to evil was indeed lessened considerably because of these "facts".

After all... she didn't have a good impression of Xiangzi in the first place.

To Lixi's surprise, Nanami Natsuki, who was standing next to her, knelt down and burst into tears after hearing her words. She couldn't tell whether the girl's reaction was genuine or just a display of her acting skills.

All she knew was that after Nanami Natsuki cried, she also slapped herself several times, and while slapping herself, Suze next to her inexplicably cried out in pain as well.

"Su Shi, Li hope... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry... If it weren't for me, Nanami Natsuki wouldn't have harmed you... I guess I only deserve to starve to death here by myself, sob sob sob... You should just leave me alone, the farther away you are from me the better!"

"Don't hit yourself, Xiao Xiang... It hurts... It's not just heartache, it really hurts..."

Nagasaki Motoyo caught Nanami Natsuki, who was slapping herself repeatedly, and comforted her while taking her hand in her own.

"Huh? Why?"

"Because... Nanami Natsuki has transferred her pain to me. In the next two days or so, all the pain she experiences will be reflected back to me like this."

"This is...this is too much! How could she be so shameless! Is she even human?!"

"..."

Li hope, who was standing to the side, kept twitching her lips as she listened to this little devil cursing her.

However, she quickly realized why the guy seemed to be enjoying it when she hit him; he wasn't a masochist, but had planned this all along...

Hmm, that's not right either. This girl likes to curse me so much, it's hard to believe she doesn't have some mental issues. She really is a perverted woman.

"So, Xiao Xiang, what are you planning to do from now on? How about... you come and stay at my house?"

"Huh? No, no need..."

Nanami Natsuki harbored a deep-seated fear of living in Suze's house, as the humiliating experience of being tied to the bed by this barbaric man still haunted her.

"It's okay, my mom won't object anyway. After all, that awful Nanami Natsuki has blinded my mom. In her eyes, she's more favored than me! Ughhhhh, how can there be such a shameless little brat!"

"...Never mind, I think if Nanami knew that I chose to run away, she would be even angrier, so staying here is the safest option right now."

Let's just bear with it. We can't let Nanami ruin our relationship—for some reason, this cheesy line suddenly popped into Riki's head.

There was no way around it; looking at Su Shi's current state from a third-person perspective, especially knowing that the person she was fawning over was Nanami, Li hope couldn't help but think about it.

“Well… alright.” Nagasaki Motoyo knew that the relationship between her and Shoko was still a bit awkward, so she couldn’t rush things. “But I’ll stay with you tonight. You can’t refuse me again. I… I’m afraid you might do something drastic if you’re alone here.”

"..."

No, why is Su Shi so smug?! Li hope simply turned around, not wanting to see this unbearable scene anymore.

"By the way, Xiao Xiang, which high school did you originally plan to go to?"

"It should be Haneoka." Nanami didn't know that Shoko had been transferred to Tsuki no Mori by her grandfather, so she was still referring to the information she already knew.

"Yuqiu..."

It's a pity it wasn't Tsuki no Mori, otherwise Nagasaki Motoyo would definitely have waited until the start of the school year to find that guy at school and give him a good talking-to.

However, Nanami Natsuki seemed to have sensed Suze's thoughts, so she gave him a heads-up before he could say the next sentence:

"Su Shi, and Li hope... can you promise me one thing?"

"Huh?"

"I know I'm not in a position to say this right now, but... I really don't want to lose anyone else, so please don't go looking for her anymore, okay?"

"Actually, I know that Nanami isn't that bad by nature. She just hasn't received love from anyone for too long, which is why she did such a thing. But she is actually reasonable most of the time and won't do things recklessly without considering the consequences."

Nagasaki Motoyo wanted to argue, but she didn't want to interrupt "Xiao Xiang" because of the way he said it.

However, after careful consideration, she also felt that what "Xiao Xiang" said made some sense.

Although Nanami Natsuki is very mischievous, she is essentially like a child who gets carried away with playing with a toy. While she sometimes goes too far, she doesn't abuse her abilities indiscriminately.

For example, when he did *that* to her, she didn't directly use her abilities to resist him, but instead used her so-called deal to force him to "reap what he sowed."

"Going to her will only make her angrier. She'll be jealous that someone like me can still have friends who speak up for her, and the more jealous she is, the worse she'll do to me and to you."

"So... Xiao Xiang, do you want us to refrain from confronting her about what happened to you for the time being?"

"Yes, this is a grudge between her and me, and I hope I can resolve it myself, is that alright?"

"..."

Nagasaki Motoyo hesitated for a long time before reluctantly agreeing. In fact, it wouldn't have mattered if she hadn't agreed, because given the current situation, Nanami Natsuki had gone to the Toyokawa family home to hide.

Even if she knew where the Toyokawa family lived, how could she possibly break through security and find them when they were deliberately avoiding meeting?

Moreover, we won't be going to the same high school in the future, so we'll have even fewer opportunities to meet.

"Su Shi, could you excuse me for a moment? I have something I want to say to Li hope alone..."

"Oh, okay then. I'll go buy some groceries first. Xiao Xiang, you probably haven't had dinner yet, have you?"

"Ah."

"Then I'll head out first. You two continue chatting."

Nagasaki Motoyo pushed open the door and left. After she left, Riki, who had been looking "worried," instantly changed her expression, looking at Nanami Natsuki, who was still pretending to be pitiful, with a mocking and sarcastic gaze, and asked:

"What mischief are you up to now? And what you just said, was it really true?"

"Never mind that for now, I just want to ask you, wasn't that feeling amazing?"

"You mean..."

"Talent, oh talent, what else could I be talking about?"

"..."

Lixi remained silent because she was unwilling to admit to Nanami that she had indeed been somewhat lost in the exhilarating feeling of acting as if she were divinely inspired.

Moreover, if she admits it, wouldn't that be tantamount to denying all her efforts and perseverance all along?

"Are you thinking that if you become obsessed with your talent, then your persistence is just a joke?"

"you……"

"Lixi-chan, why do you always prefer to deny yourself rather than accept yourself?"

Is that so? It seems that she really is like that, because Lixi has always felt that she has never done anything that makes her feel satisfied. All she has done is hit a wall. She seems to have lost confidence in herself.

When she briefly possessed the acting talent given to her by Nanami Natsuki, she found herself entering a world she had never known before, and even... with the help of her acting skills, she was able to hide her previously uncontrollable emotions very well.

This intense positive feedback is like a poison, constantly eroding her rationality, and she seems to be willingly and wholeheartedly continuing to fall into depravity even though she knows it's wrong.

Moreover, this acting skill isn't even the talent she desires most. If... it doesn't work, she'll completely lose herself if she keeps thinking about it.

"I will approve of you, Lixi."

"……what?"

Nanami Natsuki reached out and stroked Riki's smooth little face, as if she were caressing a delicate doll. "Riki, I told you, didn't I? Even if no one else can understand what you're thinking, I will understand you."

"You can confide in me whatever you want, and even if you get angry and yell at me, I won't be angry, because I'm the only one who can understand you."

"No...you would never truly understand me."

The only person who understands her is Deng, Lixi couldn't help but think. But what frightened her was that this thought seemed to be wavering at this moment.

Compared to Nanami, who accurately expresses all aspects of her inner thoughts, Akari is more like a close friend with whom she can have a spiritual connection, rather than an "accomplice" with whom she can share secrets.

The lamp could indeed express the positive side of her heart, but Nanami... it was as if she lived inside her body, able to say anything, good or bad, in one sentence.

Yes, their current relationship seems to be one of complicity... Because she couldn't resist temptation and did something detrimental to her friends, she has become a member of Nanami Natsuki's pirate ship.

"Stop talking nonsense. When are you going to show me your creative talent?"

"Oh dear, I didn't expect Xiao Lixi to be in such a hurry. It seems you've finally realized that pretending in front of me is pointless."

"That's true, when have you ever seen me pretend in front of Lixi?"

"Please don't change the subject! I don't care if you're pretending or not... I... I've already done something unforgivable, if you..."

"Of course I will repay you, Lixi, but I don't have any suitable talents for you right now."

How could you do this?!

"Don't worry, Riki." Nanami Natsuki soothed Riki's fiery temper, saying with a smile, "But as long as I go to your sister and ask her to give you her talent, everything will be resolved, right?"

"...Huh?"

Li hope froze for a moment, then her eyes widened instantly. She stood up, grabbed Nanami Natsuki's collar, and said angrily, "No, you can't do this! Don't underestimate me. Do you think I'm the kind of bastard who would sacrifice my sister's happiness for my own future?!"

"is it?"

"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think you know everything about me?! Don't try to belittle my entire personality just because you know some of my thoughts. I will absolutely not agree to this, absolutely not!"
