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

"Stop talking, this time it's a month."

"Huh? What...what, a month?"

Shiina Riki originally planned to tell Nanami Natsuki that she no longer wanted Xiangzi's talent, but when she heard Nanami Natsuki mention a month, she hesitated again, feeling a little ashamed.

"Do not……"

"Don't worry, I can also break that control I have over you, the one that makes you think about music creation..."

"Really?!"

She quickly interrupted Nanami Natsuki's next words, but Riki was indeed starting to feel tempted. She was like an idiot who was completely seen through by Nanami Natsuki, and it seemed that every time she tried to resist the other party's control, she would be so easily tempted again.

"After all, we're already in that kind of relationship, Riki-chan, even though you haven't confessed to me yet."

"...You must be dreaming."

"Okay, okay, I'm not teasing you anymore. I'm a little tired too. I get tired of seeing your face every day, you know?"

"Huh? No, what exactly are you trying to say?"

No, how could such a delicate and lovely girl so easily utter such a scumbag statement?

Although I did take the initiative in every intimate encounter, in the end... wasn't it all the result of your inducement, Nanami Natsuki?

"Don't you understand, Lixi? You're already like this to me. I've seen through all your strengths and weaknesses, and I've experienced what it's like to do those things with you. So now... you're no longer fun for me."

"Of course, as my customer, you can still come regularly to extend your cheat time. But don't expect me to have any more expectations of you. After all, as I said, you will forget me sooner or later, and our relationship will definitely end."

"you!"

Lixi tried hard to calm herself down, and she was genuinely surprised that she would get angry after hearing those words.

The two of them had no relationship to begin with, right? In that case... she shouldn't be disappointed at all.

She got what she wanted and would no longer be manipulated by this witch; it was a happy ending for everyone... so why would she be dissatisfied?

Yes, she shouldn't be angry, and she shouldn't feel disappointed. What she should do is to officially break free from Nanami Natsuki's mental control over her. She is a free individual... How can she be locked in a "cage" by such a same-sex girl for the rest of her life?

"That would be for the best! But don't regret it... whatever you do, don't say you have some new tricks up your sleeve to play on me, and don't do anything outrageous to me again!"

Nanami Natsuki looked at the idiot Riki who was easily swayed by her emotions, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. "Of course, unless you're being a jerk and come to me on your own."

"Hehe... Don't worry, I definitely won't."

"Since that's the case, let's call it a day. I've already done what I promised you. Ugh... this is so tiresome. Your face is making me sleepy."

"Do you think I feel good just looking at you? That's ridiculous."

After getting what she wanted, Lixi clearly didn't want to stay any longer, but she didn't seem to realize... In fact, Nanami Natsuki did fix her distorted cognitive logic, but she didn't get the promised Xiangzi talent.

In other words, her musical talent will return to its previous state in just two more days, but she herself is completely unaware of this.

"Lixi, Lixi... let me see, does the placebo effect work well for you too?"

Watching Riki leave, Nanami Natsuki, standing behind her, gave a faint smile.

She really didn't want to use the same tricks to manipulate Lixi anymore. Of course, this was only because Lixi was no longer able to elicit many negative emotions from her. After all, the child had completely fallen into depravity and was almost immune to these things.

After all, the fact that Lixi could still continue trading with him even after being exposed by Su Shi completely illustrates Lixi's current problem.

This child... no longer wants to struggle.

However, Nanami Natsuki always has a lot of cards to play. Since she can't harvest negative emotions, it's not impossible to lay a little groundwork and then harvest the opponent's positive emotions in return.

And if you get tired of playing the "favoring women" card, it's perfectly reasonable to occasionally play the "bad woman" card, isn't it?

Chapter 82 Nagasaki Motoyo's Counterattack (4600 words)

"Sorry to bother calling you out when you're so busy... But I didn't know you had a hobby of stargazing?"

"Yes, because the starry sky is beautiful, isn't it? I've always longed to become a star in the sky since I was little, but unfortunately my mother later told me that people only become stars in the sky after they die."

"...Huh?"

"Haha, of course I later found out that it was also a lie."

As Mikasa emerged from the planetarium, she looked at the girl in front of her who seemed to be her love rival. She cleverly used her longing for the starry sky to cover up the subconscious resistance that had arisen in her heart when they met.

However, Chu Hua was indeed very puzzled. She thought that the Nanami Natsuki Victim Support Group had little to do with "outsiders" like her, since apart from being very familiar with Nanami, she only had nodding acquaintances with the other two members of the group.

Nagasaki Motoyo specifically contacted her through the LINE number she had left that day, saying she wanted to schedule a time to talk, which surprised Hatsuka.

However, she still agreed. It just so happened that she had planned to use her free time on Saturday afternoon to go to the planetarium to look at the stars, and after she came out, she would also like to meet with this classmate Su Shi to see what his purpose was in contacting her.

"Chuhua, have you and Xiaoxiang known each other since you were little?"

Su Shi walked beside Chu Hua, and the two strolled around the neighborhood before finally finding a bench to sit down.

"Yes, Xiao Xiang visited the island where my family lived when he was little. We met and became friends there. We watched the stars together and played in the woods... But that was when we were little. A lot of things happened after that. I came to Tokyo in the last two years."

"Speaking of which... Xiao Xiang really hasn't changed at all. He's still as gentle as he was when he was a child."

Yes, that's right.

"Su Shi, is there something you need from me? I think since we're already allies in the mutual aid group, you can just tell me if there's anything you want me to help with. We're friends, aren't we?"

"...There is a traitor among us."

"Huh?"

Sanjiao Chuhua's blood froze instantly, and her hand, which was on the side furthest from Su Shi, trembled slightly. However, she suddenly regained her composure, since Su Shi's words did not seem to be directed at her at all.

They weren't very close, so how could Su Shi possibly discover her secret... No, it's impossible.

"You mean... Li Xi?"

"Yes, the one who took away Xiao Xiang's talent was Li hope."

"...It was her?"

“Miss Chuhua, I know you may find it strange that I’m saying this, but right now… I really have no choice but to come and talk to you.”

“I can’t tell Xiaoxiang about this. Lixi has already betrayed the organization. Now you’re the only one I can trust. As Xiaoxiang’s good friend, I think you wouldn’t just watch Xiaoxiang be harmed like this by Nanami Natsuki, right?”

"I...I don't know what to do either."

"I want to know the relationship between Nanami and Xiaoxiang."

"Huh? You mean this..."

Nagasaki Motoyo grabbed Hatsuka's arm and asked anxiously, "If you know anything, can you tell me? The only way I can think of right now is to find Nanami Natsuki's weakness. Only in this way can we turn the tide, right?"

"Think about it... Do you really think it's a good thing to let this brat cause trouble for everyone like this? She must have some kind of relationship with the Toyokawa family. If you ask me, since she's hiding it like this, I even suspect she's Xiaoxiang's father's illegitimate daughter!"

"..."

Girl, your imagination is too conservative. The "darkness" of the Toyokawa family far exceeds your expectations.

"Chu Hua, you've known Xiao Xiang longer than I have, and I've investigated. Your agency is also connected to the Toyokawa family, so I'm wondering... if you know anything, any useful information will do."

"I……"

Nagasaki Momomi Hatsuka seemed to really know something, but she was hesitant and didn't know whether she should say it or not. She also made up her mind to increase her efforts to persuade her.

"Chuhua, if you do nothing, nothing will change... You should know that very well, right?"

"If we compromise with Nanami Natsuki, that kind of person will only become more arrogant. In fact, it has been proven that she is so vicious... that she can actually play the long game and bribe our allies without our knowledge."

"..."

"Do you want to give in like this? I'm sure Nanami Natsuki won't let anyone get away with this. Since she failed to conquer you, she'll definitely come back and try to seduce you in other ways. So we have to fight back. This is our only option now!"

Isn't this insubordination? Is this really a good idea?

Misaka Hatsuka paused for a moment, thinking, "Wait... why does she think that resisting Nanami Natsuki is 'insubordination'? Is she really like what Su Shi said, unable to stand up after submitting for too long?"

Moreover, upon careful consideration, what Su Shi said is actually correct. Could she really guarantee that Nanami Natsuki's promise to her would actually be fulfilled?

She had a whole set of reasons, but in reality, everything she did only drove her and Xiao Xiang further and further apart.

This is very dangerous...

The problem is, can she really resist Nanami Natsuki at this time? Although the other party has helped her get rid of her identity, no one has stipulated that the guy can change his identity back.

"Feel sorry……"

"..."

Nagasaki Motoyo's eyes were filled with disappointment as she looked at the blonde girl beside her, feeling more agitated than ever before.

However, she didn't lose her temper and yell at Li hope like she did over this. After all, Chu Hua and she weren't very close, so why would the other party believe her?

Moreover, although Chu Hua is Xiao Xiang's friend, her previous attitude towards Xiao Xiang gave her the feeling that their childhood friendship was just a memory of the past. After not seeing each other for so long, their feelings had probably faded long ago.

If their relationship were really that close, wouldn't Hatsuka have been led by the nose by Nanami Natsuki long ago?

The fact that the other party did not fall into Nanami Natsuki's trap completely shows that Chu Hua doesn't care about Xiao Xiang's current situation at all, so why should he drag the other party down with him?

“I understand.” Su Shi nodded, not intending to say anything more. “Actually, I should be the one apologizing. It’s probably not worth it for you to be dragged into Xiao Xiang’s mess for no reason. I seem to have been too idealistic about your relationship.”

"But thank you so much for taking the time to see me, I will..."

What did you just say?

"...Huh?"

Su Shi was somewhat confused. She felt that the girl beside her suddenly exuded a strong aura. "Did I...did I say something?"

"...I've changed my mind."

Misaka Chuka admits that her idea was impulsive, but she simply cannot accept others belittling her love for Xiangzi in this way.

She is indeed a very pathetic person. In order to get rid of the shackles of her identity, she was played like a dog by Nanami. Did she have no dignity at all?

of course not.

However, for Chu Hua, some things were tolerable. She was willing to give up some of her dignity for that faint hope, but in the end, it was all for one purpose: to make Xiao Xiang's gaze focus only on her.

But has she seen any changes during this time?

Xiao Xiang never contacted her again, and Nanami Natsuki pretended not to know her in class every day. Although she had indeed gotten rid of her status as an illegitimate child, she had also lost something very important.

However, Chu Hua wasn't stupid. Although she was happy to see Nanami Natsuki punished, she didn't really want to reveal her own stance to Nanami Natsuki.

"However, I can only provide you with the information I know. You cannot tell anyone else about this, not a single person. Of course, you also cannot let Nanami know that I am helping you. If you can do that, we can continue talking; if not, then forget it."

"Of course, thank you, Chuhua. Go ahead and tell me, I'll keep this a secret."
