"I see..."

Nagasaki Motoyo couldn't help but fantasize: if one person's true feelings could be so easily transmitted to another's heart, wouldn't all misunderstandings and conflicts in the world disappear?

She was indeed tempted. Although if she agreed to the little witch's conditions, she might completely forget everything about Crychic within 10 days, she felt that even losing that memory would be worthwhile if it could make Xiao Xiang understand how much she valued Crychic.

"Then, can you really help me? As long as I agree to your conditions?"

"Hmph, of course you can, but I'm angry. I won't help you unless you kneel down and beg me by hugging my feet."

“...You wretched brat.”

Nagasaki Motoyo vowed that if she hadn't yet figured out Nanami Natsuki's weakness, she would have thoroughly humiliated this little brat today, making her cry out to her, "Mommy, I was wrong!"

Chapter 13 Su Shi: Did this girl trick me? (1/2)

"I said... can I really trust you?"

Of course, Nagasaki Motoyo would never actually kneel down and hug the little witch's feet. Even if no one else saw it, and it was just happening in her own home... she would never do something so shameful.

Moreover, what really made Su Shi more dizzy and confused than Qi Hai's provocative words was the series of unbelievable things that happened today.

She didn't know whether she should believe Nanami Natsuki or not, and which of the things the other person said to her were true.

"Please..."

Nanami Natsuki looked at the incredibly conflicted Nagasaki Motoyo with a speechless expression, and said irritably, "You think your memories and emotions are precious? Ah... of course they're precious to you, but the problem is, to others, these things might have no value at all~"

"What...what did you say?"

Seeing that Nagasaki Motoyo looked like she was about to explode, Nanami Natsuki couldn't help but take two steps back and then crossed her arms in a defensive stance.

"I...I'm just telling the truth, okay! Everyone's values ​​are different. What's important to you might not be so important to others, right?"

"Otherwise... why did the band eventually break up? If everyone cherishes those shared memories, why are you the only one who finds the separation painful?"

"I...I don't know."

Nagasaki Motoyo wanted to refute, but she didn't know what others thought, which was the root cause of her long-standing inner conflict.

She didn't know how Xiaoxiang, Xiaomu, Xiaodeng, and Lixi viewed what happened that night, nor did she know if they had ever really thought about repairing their relationship.

Is she just indulging in wishful thinking and doing useless work, or is she doing something valuable but hasn't completed all the necessary steps yet?

She doesn't know... and it's precisely because she doesn't know that she wants to find out.

"So I said I won't take away your feelings for the band and your related memories and never give them back to you, because it's not good for me to keep occupying them. Besides, wouldn't it be too good for you to just let you get rid of this tangled pain forever?"

"In short, I'm just giving you a choice. Under normal circumstances... there shouldn't be such an opportunity for someone else to personally experience your emotions and feelings, right?"

"The people you care about can only see things from their own perspective, never considering how others have been thinking and acting over such a long period of time. Isn't that unfair?"

Nanami Natsuki's words were very persuasive. Although she herself had a somewhat regrettable personality and was physically weak, it has to be said that Nagasaki Motoyo was indeed moved after she finished speaking.

"Think about it, it's only 10 days. Sister Su Shi, how long have you been trying to repair everyone's relationship? It should have been more than 10 days already... If you can get my help and see some turning point in these 10 days, wouldn't it be worth a try?"

"I didn't ask you for anything more, right? I didn't take away your important talents, nor did I take away a part of the rest of your life. I just wanted to freeload at your house for a few days, sob sob sob. I'm such a kind person!"

"Heh...you're just a little rascal."

Although Nagasaki Motoyo was already considering giving it a try, she couldn't help but get angry at Nanami Natsuki. She couldn't hold back and went straight up to the girl and placed her fists on the girl's "angelic" cheeks, then gave them a good thrashing.

"Hey! I'm warning you, I have a temper!"

"What if I say yes? You should...really want me to say yes, right?"

"Huh?"

Nanami Natsuki was stunned for a moment. Could this deal have been completed so quickly? After all, because she had just had her senses cut off, she now had information that Sue was continuously providing her with positive emotional points called "hope" and "excitement".

"However, I remember there was another clause in the deal you proposed before, right? If I agreed, you would tell me what happened in Xiao Xiang's family."

"Of course, but are you sure you want to know now?"

"What do you mean? Are you trying to cheat?!" Nagasaki Motoyo elbowed the girl in the throat. Although she didn't use much force, the intense humiliation still made Nanami Natsuki stomp her feet repeatedly.

"No way! How can you be so barbaric, you sow?!"

"Call me Sister Su Shi!"

"Who wants to call you 'older sister'!" Nanami Natsuki retorted defiantly, then obediently explained, "Even if you knew now, you'd still be confused about these things after I take away all your memories related to the band."

"After all, those things that happened with the band are no longer relevant to you, so you naturally won't remember who Xiangzi is. You probably won't see things from the perspective of your current friend about what happened to Xiangzi's family. In fact... you might even make sarcastic remarks."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Ten days later, before the transaction is completely finished, after your memory returns, I will tell you everything, I promise."

"Your promise... well, I'll just take it as you weren't lying to me."

Nagasaki Motoyo felt that she was really sick. She actually placed her hopes on something that was theoretically impossible, and even patiently bargained with Nanami Natsuki.

She was even a little worried that once she actually made the so-called deal with the other party, the next moment this little brat would suddenly jump in front of her, point her finger at her nose, and loudly mock her, saying that she was a stupid pig who actually believed what a child wouldn't believe.

Based on her current impression of Nanami Natsuki, this guy might actually do something like that.

"So I'm confirming one last time, you agreed to this deal voluntarily, right? I didn't force you, did I? Although I'd really like to see what it feels like to force you..."

"Ah."

"Then you can lie on the sofa for now. After I remove your memories related to the band, you'll begin a short but perhaps even more carefree and happy life than before~"

"I……"

"Lie down quickly! Oh, I forgot to ask, who are you planning to entrust your memories and emotions to?"

"Of course it's... Xiao Xiang."

"Ha, I knew it. He's such an idiot that I can see right through."

"Can't you say something that suits your appearance?! Ugh!"

Nagasaki Motoyo wanted to say something, but she could only helplessly lie down on the sofa with the girl, and then she stared in disbelief as the little brat raised her stockinged foot and stepped directly on her face.

"Hmph, revenge successful!"

"You bastard, do you want to die?! Uh... wait a minute?"

Nagasaki Motoyo suddenly felt as if something was being pulled out of her body, and then she lost consciousness and unconsciously closed her eyes.

Chapter 14 Toyokawa Shoko's Despair (2/2)

[Currently possesses 2130 Emotion Points]

[Currently owned items: Nagasaki Motoyo's Band Memories (10 days), Nagasaki Motoyo's Obsession with the Band (10 days)]

Looking at Nagasaki Motoyo, who had already "fallen asleep," Nanami Natsuki smiled.

Although her personality seems more unpredictable to outsiders after merging her past and present personalities, she will not deceive the customers who provide her with emotional triggers when it comes to important matters.

She always keeps her word when she says she will fulfill the terms of the transaction.

If she can't do that... then how can she watch those amazing girls who've gone crazy playing in bands and have such exciting, fluctuating emotions?

Moreover, she was more than 50% certain that if she entrusted these memories and emotions to that blue-haired monster whose life was a mess, he might be affected by Su Shi's obsessive feelings during those 10 days, and might even have some regrets and guilt, and might even take the initiative to seek "forgiveness" from Su Shi, who had forgotten everything.

Su Shi, on the other hand, would naturally be completely confused, and might even think that this girl named Toyokawa Shoko was crazy, and might even avoid her because she was annoyed.

But once the time limit is over... their positions will be reversed!

Mmm... What a wonderful scene that would be!

As for whether she would be brutally ravaged by Nagasaki Motoyo after that... cough cough, she believed she could escape unscathed, perhaps?

"Anyway, I can pinpoint Su Shi's exact location now, so I'm not afraid that she'll renege on her promise to support me after she wakes up... no, I mean support me."

Having confirmed that Su Shi's work was finished, Nanami Natsuki was too lazy to wait for her to wake up any longer; she clearly needed to do more important work now.

[Toyokawa Shoko experienced the negative emotion of "despair," and her emotional points increased by 50.]

[Kiyoshi Toyokawa experienced negative emotions of "self-doubt," emotional points +120]

[Toyokawa Shoko experienced the negative emotion of "anxiety," emotion points +15]

[Toyokawa Shoko experienced the positive emotion of "desire," earning +30 emotion points.]

These notifications have been ringing for a long time, which means that Xiangzi has already noticed her father's change and is probably starting to hesitate about whether to continue the deal.

"Despair" naturally stems from her father's renewed depravity, while "anxiety" arises from her frustration at being unable to change anything. As for "yearning," perhaps it's because her heart has begun to waver, contemplating whether she should completely succumb and seek justice from this angel.

"Hmm, the location is still at her house... It seems we don't need to look for her in crowded places."

Nanami Natsuki took out her phone and, based on the coordinates provided by the cheat code, confirmed the location of Shoko and her father. Her next move was self-evident.

Come to our door and discuss business!

…………

Twenty minutes ago.

Shoko Toyokawa walked out of a restaurant. After finishing her work washing dishes, she had completed all her part-time jobs for the day.

According to her usual routine, all she needs to do now is go home and do the housework, and then... oh wait, it seems she hasn't needed to do those things for the past two days.

Her father has changed a lot. He not only works hard every day, but also studies diligently after finishing his housework at home. This is really rare for someone his age, and it has also given Xiangzi some inspiration.

She seemed to have forgotten the details of her deal with Nanami Natsuki. No... perhaps she hadn't forgotten, but was deliberately avoiding thinking about it.

Because once you start thinking about it, you've fallen into that little witch's trap.

She couldn't get caught up in emotions that would benefit the enemy and harm herself. What she should do was trust her father, believe that he had found his own path these past few days, and that the two of them would work together for a happy future.

Xiangzi could only think this way, because if she wavered and began to doubt her father's determination, she might never want to believe him again.

"Please... Dad, you mustn't break your promise..."

Haven't we already made a new promise? Haven't we already said we'd let him trust us one last time? As long as the alcohol control plan is completed, even the most difficult things later on will find a solution and motivation because of this good start.

"Xiangzi".

"..."

Lost in thought about what fate awaited her that night, Toyokawa Shoko was completely unaware that a car had suddenly pulled up beside her. As the car window rolled down, she saw the face she desperately wanted to avoid:

Toyokawa Sadaharu, who was her maternal grandfather.

"I told you, I won't go back..."

"Hmph." Toyokawa Sadaharu snorted coldly, seemingly having no intention of arguing with Shoko. "It seems you haven't realized your mistake. Oh well, you'll understand eventually."
