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

At least at this moment, the girl in front of Nagasaki Motoyo was just like the doll girl in her memory, and had never changed.

"Su Shi, can you tell me? What happened to Xiang? I saw her at school today, but she ignored me."

"...She is no longer Xiao Xiang."

"I don't understand."

"She is the Nanami Natsuki I just mentioned to you."

"Does Xiang... does Xiang also have multiple personalities?"

"Multiple personalities?" Nagasaki Motoyo was taken aback. She really hadn't expected Mu to say such a thing. "How could you think that? Of course, Sho doesn't have multiple personalities... It's just that I don't know how to explain it to you, since this sounds too unbelievable."

Nagasaki Motoyo was indeed hesitant, because in her view, the terrifying power that Nanami Natsuki possessed was unimaginable to anyone.

Moreover, she had already made an agreement with Xiao Xiang that they would protect Xiao Mu and at least prevent Xiao Mu from meeting Qi Hai again, so that nothing would happen.

But the problem is... since we agreed to be completely open with each other, isn't this seemingly well-intentioned concealment also a mistake?

If all the causes and consequences cannot be explained well at the beginning, will someone as innocent as Mutsu be able to resist the temptation when Nanami actually approaches her?

Su Shi dared not think about the possibility, and she was even more unwilling to see the heartbroken expression on Xiao Xiang's face when he learned that her best childhood friend Xiao Mu had betrayed her.

She also...didn't want Xiaomu to suffer any harm in this matter.

"Su Shi, I want to know."

"Alright... then I'll tell you everything about Nanami Natsuki."

Before the opening ceremony began, Nagasaki Motoyo quickly summarized what had happened during spring break, but she could only talk about the facts she knew, namely what had happened to her and the facts told by "Xiao Xiang".

As for other matters, she was unaware of them and therefore could not reveal the truth.

"Xiao Mu, are you... are you alright? I know this is hard to accept, but you'll know once you see the real Xiao Xiang today."

That's Xiang.

"what?"

“The one who just left without paying attention to me… that was Xiang,” Ruoye Mutsu said firmly.

"I knew you didn't believe me."

Nagasaki Motoyo rolled her eyes, somewhat speechless... But this seemed quite normal, after all, if she were Wakaba Mutsu, she wouldn't believe it if someone came up to her and said a bunch of unscientific things.

"Su Shi, I didn't lie to you."

"I didn't lie to you."

"I……"

I just knew it.

Although I've never met Nanami Natsuki, that person was definitely Sho. After all, we've known each other for a long time, so I couldn't possibly mistake her for someone else...

Ruo Ye Mu really wanted to say that, but looking at Su Shi's unwavering gaze, she couldn't bring herself to say it for a moment.

Why can't I say what I want to say? Why...?

"Because you're afraid of seeing the doubtful or angry looks in other people's eyes after they hear what you say."

The voice in her heart arrived as promised, truly reflecting Ruoye Mu's innermost thoughts. It was precisely because of this that she hadn't dared to catch up with Xiangzi and ask what had happened that caused him to ignore her.

She didn't reveal all her judgments just now because Ruoye Mu didn't want Su Shi to show the same expression as that night.

She was afraid that everyone would leave her, and even more afraid that she had done something wrong that would cause them to abandon her.

…………

At the other end of the stadium, Toyokawa Shoko, who entered just before the last minute, looked indifferent. Her deliberate avoidance of Mutsu wasn't for any other reason than her fear that Nanami would take away the person she cared about.

Powerless...

She no longer knew how to stop Nanami Natsuki's plan. She even considered surrendering early and giving up her life... But the question is, would doing that really end everything?

Moreover, having already experienced the horror of having her life taken away, Xiangzi could not accept the feeling of being in someone else's body again, even if that body was a beautiful girl who was even cuter than her.

Therefore, Xiangzi can only use every method she can think of to make Nanami Natsuki lose interest in the people around her.

She knew Nanami might not believe it, but what if she did...?

If she doesn't care about anyone around her, like her father said, like Nanami said... and becomes a bastard who only cares about herself and not about those who care about her, then wouldn't such a selfish bastard attract all of Nanami Natsuki's hatred?

Worth a try...

So upon seeing Mutsuka for the first time, Shoko decisively turned away, forcing herself to ignore the pleading in Mutsuka's eyes, and ruthlessly turned her back on him.

After all, that's what Chu Hua did, wasn't it? After Chu Hua and Qi Hai left yesterday, Xiang Zi quickly realized that Chu Hua was just deliberately playing along.

To stop Nanami from being jealous of her and to prevent more tragedies from happening, Hatsuka did what she was willing to do, even if it would hurt her.

This further solidified Xiangzi's inner thoughts; in her view, Nanami Natsuki was just a brat who was obsessed with saving face.

She had suppressed her emotions and suffered for too long, so after gaining power, she couldn't help but act recklessly. But just by looking at the other party's actions over the years, it's clear that this child was only taking revenge on her and the people around her, and didn't commit crimes like Homelander did with his abilities.

This at least shows that there is still hope for Nanami Natsuki's true nature.

It's just that I've been so into it for so long, and it would be embarrassing to stop now. Hmm... someone like Nanami, who keeps praising herself for being cute and beautiful, must be a very vain little brat.

She couldn't break through the little devil's psychological defenses anytime soon, so even though Nanami was moved by her sincerity, she had to force herself to continue.

Therefore, there are only two ways to quickly resolve this situation:

One option is to genuinely cooperate with Nanami to carry out all her revenge, but Xiangzi definitely doesn't want to take that path.

So the only remaining option is the second one, which is to do the opposite of what Nanami expected. Doesn't she want to have no friends? Well then, if I actively abandon all my friends, won't you lose all your fun?

I'm going to leave you hanging, so that no one will play your tricks with you, you little devil. Let's see how you continue.

"Ah, our entrance ceremony is now over. It's almost noon, so everyone can go to the cafeteria for lunch. In the afternoon, each student should go to their respective classroom, where your homeroom teacher will conduct the remaining activities."

During the time Xiangzi was distracted, several school leaders and student representatives came and went on stage, but Xiangzi paid no attention to any of them.

When it was time for everyone to leave, Xiangzi turned around and saw Su Shi looking at her.

Xiangzi was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the disgust in the other person's eyes, and the back of the other person who took Mu's hand and turned to leave.

"Why……"

All the plans in her mind to break down the little devil's defenses paled in comparison to the single look Su Shi gave her.

Although she already knew, she had indeed heard from Nanami that Lixi was the one who took her talent, and that Su Shi no longer considered her a friend.

But why would these be true?

Xiangzi knew that Su Shi's reaction just now wasn't acting; it was indeed the expression of looking at a scoundrel. So... it turns out he didn't need to play any scoundrel at all; he already was one from the very beginning.

But... why do you prefer to trust Nanami Natsuki rather than give me more trust?

Pretending not to know me, huh? Going to side with a bastard like Nanami Natsuki, huh?

Fine! If we don't know each other, we don't know each other! If I were to pay any attention to you, Nagasaki Motoyo, then I, Toyokawa Shoko, would be a dog!

Chapter 72 Without Nanami's insults, I can't do anything right (5200 words)

Four full days have passed since school started on April 8th.

Regarding this brand-new high school life, Shiina Tatsuki felt that there was no question of adapting or not adapting, since she had always been a loner and only knew three people in this class.

Nanami Natsuki is one, Hatsuka is another, and the last one... is Hachiman Kairin, whom I knew in middle school but wasn't very close to.

Perhaps because she didn't have any real relationship with the other two people, or perhaps because she and Hailing were quite similar in personality, the person Lixi had been in contact with the most lately was the serious-looking girl sitting behind her.

However, for Lixi, the biggest change she noticed after the start of the school year was not that her attitude towards certain things had changed, but that she seemed to be becoming more adept at doing other things.

The most obvious thing is that... she, a person with very average academic performance, was able to understand the textbook knowledge explained by the teacher on stage at an astonishing speed.

It was a very mysterious feeling, as if those dry knowledge points had turned into musical movements in her head, and the inspiration that occasionally burst forth became a magical adhesive, connecting seemingly unrelated points into a line.

Every evening when Lixi returned home to finish her homework, she couldn't help but tap her leg to the beat while thinking. It was as if she could absorb creative elements from between the lines of the textbooks. In particular, when she picked up her Chinese textbook and world history textbook, her desire to write something would become even stronger.

"Tomorrow... seems to be the day I need to go see Nanami Natsuki to extend my talent."

Looking at the date displayed on her phone, Lixi couldn't help but sigh. In fact, she knew herself that she had been deliberately avoiding Nanami Natsuki since the start of the semester.

Even if they were in the same class, even if she was now a member of Class B, she couldn't pretend not to know Nanami Natsuki, who had become the darling of all the girls since the start of the semester.

Fortunately, not many people would pay attention to the private dealings between a solitary, gloomy girl and a sunny, cheerful girl.

In addition, Nanami Natsuki has not taken the initiative to chat with her recently. Even when she went to work at RiNG, Nanami rarely approached her to chat. Because of this, she was able to spend these four days so peacefully.

"Ding~"

Just as Lixi was about to look away and refocus on her unfinished homework, her phone received a message:

[Nagasaki Motoyo: Tatsuki, are you free tomorrow, Sunday? I'd like to invite you and Xiaoxiang to talk about reforming the band.]

Why are they still talking about reforming the band...?

Shiina Riki was a little annoyed, but she didn't seem to have any right to refuse. After all, regardless of whether that guy was Nanami Natsuki or "Toyokawa Shoko", that kid was currently the one with the most say in their little group.

[Nagasaki Motoyo: But I can't get in touch with Xiaoxiang. It seems that Nanami Natsuki took Xiaoxiang's phone and changed her account password immediately, so Xiaoxiang's previous LINE account is no longer usable.]

So I was thinking, why don't we go directly to where Xiaoxiang is living now to find her tomorrow?

Is that really how it can be explained? No... can you, Nagasaki Motoyo, really believe this kind of reason?

Li hope sighed helplessly, picked up her phone and casually replied, "I understand," before continuing with her own business.

However, she underestimated how much Su Shi cared about this matter. She had just put down her phone when she received another message from Su Shi:

[Nagasaki Motoyo: I told Mutsu about Nanami and Sho, but she doesn't quite believe me.]

[Shiina Tatsuki: Why are you telling her all this?]

[Nagasaki Motoyo: I don't think it's possible to really keep it from Mutsu. After all, if we were to reunite the band without knowing anything, Mutsu would definitely be suspicious. I can't exactly tell her that Sho had plastic surgery, can I?]

What an idiot!

Shiina Riki was so angry at Nagasaki Motoyo that she didn't pay much attention to what Motoyo was talking about regarding the band reunion. However, she really didn't expect that Motoyo would actually drag Mutoyo into this matter in such a short time after the start of the school year.

However, the thought that he was an accomplice in deceiving Su Shi in collusion with others made Li hope feel somewhat ashamed.

Yes, of course she knew that Nanami Natsuki was Nanami Natsuki, that Nanami Natsuki had long been eyeing Mutsu, and that with Mutsu's personality, she would definitely be deceived by Nanami Natsuki.

Shiina Riki understands everything. She even understands that in many people's eyes, her deal with Nanami Natsuki is a mistake and a shameful act of cheating.

The real reason she hasn't taken the initiative to contact Nanami these past few days is this: Lixi still can't forget the concealment and deception she made of Su Shi. Every night when she goes to sleep, she sees Xiangzi grabbing her shoulders and yelling at her, as well as Nanami Natsuki giggling incessantly beside her.
