If I don't capture the girl, I will die

"Okay, which one do you want?" There were plenty of coins anyway, so there was no need to worry about who came first. Moreover, Kato Megumi's behavior of always putting him first satisfied Ji Qi's little bit of machismo.

Moreover, he seemed to have found a good gift for Xiaohui.

"The cat with the squinting eyes."

"Xiaohui, do you like Natsume's Book of Friends too?"

"What? What is that? I just thought it was novel and cute..."

Ji Qi held his forehead with his hand, completely forgetting that Xiaohui didn't have much contact with things related to home.

After a pause, Ji Qi concentrated, put a coin into the machine, then controlled the remote control and pressed the button.

The movements are done in one go.

So, naturally, I got nothing.

Logically speaking, this can't be blamed on him, right?

After all, whether in the past or now, he never plays with more than two hands.

Although luck plays a large part in claw machines, skills are also important.

Of course, what’s more important is to have enough money to spend.

Ji Qi only met the last requirement.

He tossed a few more coins.

I tried five or six times in a row, but... I couldn't even get the cat's body out.

Ji Qi had an awkward smile on his face. He had wasted a good opportunity to flirt with a girl.

In this situation, being good at catching dolls can increase girls' favorability, right?

pity.

But this is only natural, right?

After all, you can't expect a stay-at-home who doesn't like to go out to spend his days catching dolls outside and then develop the skill of always hitting the target, right?

Even in a romantic comedy, this is a bit excessive.

Therefore, Ji Qi did not have too many ideas, he planned to spend money all the way.

Xiaohui didn't say anything about his consecutive failures.

Still with a faint smile, she stared at his depressed look.

"Xiaohui, come here." Scratching his scalp, Ji wanted to take the opportunity to give the other party a gift. His plan failed, so he stuffed a few coins for Kato Hui and moved a seat for her.

"Okay~"

Kato Megumi controlled the remote control stick a little clumsily, and it seemed that she was not very good at such entertainment activities.

"Ah...failed."

The iron claw only caught the ear of the stuffed cat, and it fell down immediately after it was pulled up a little.

Xiaohui frowned.

"It doesn't matter. Entertainment is important." Ji Qi encouraged from the side. Even though all the money was spent by him, he looked like he was gloating.

I have to say, there is no skill in catching dolls. It is really difficult to catch them just by rushing.

After a while, most of the coins in the hands of the two had been used up, and they still hadn't picked up a single one.

Occasionally, they would hear the cheers of the boys and girls nearby who had caught the dolls, which made them even more annoyed.

"Ah... Is it so difficult to catch a doll?" After failing many times, including a doll that was almost caught, Kato Megumi finally couldn't help but puff up her lips a little.

After all, she is not a saint without emotions.

And this charm was accurately captured by Ji Qi, who had been paying attention to her.

It's really cute.

Ji Qi felt that as long as he saw Xiaohui's expression, it would be worth spending twice as much money!

"These are the last two coins. Let's take one each, senior." Xiaohui spread out her palm and handed the coin, which still carried her body temperature, to Ji Qi.

"it is good."

What was surprising was that the last two shots from both of them were actually hit the mark!

Although it was not their favorite, Kato Megumi and Hime Nana no longer had such high demands at this time.

It’s good to have it!

Kato Megumi squeezed the little bear doll that fell out, "Two dolls for three thousand yen... Senior, this is not worth it, right?"

The two they caught were both miniature.

If you put it in a normal jewelry store, it would cost less than a quarter of the price.

"No. It's a great bargain."

Ji Qi shook his head. Seeing Xiao Hui tilting her head with a puzzled look, he did not rush to explain, but said first: "Give me your doll."

Kato Megumi obediently gave him the teddy bear.

After Ji Qi took it, he handed her the slightly larger cat pendant doll in his hand and explained, "If you don't mind, we can use the dolls we caught to give each other gifts."

"We both caught it last time, so it should be a good commemoration. After all, good memories can't be bought with any amount of money, right?"

"Hit? Actually, I think there is no difference if you buy it from a doll store, senpai."

"..."

What a heroine who doesn’t raise a flag!

Chapter 182 Why do I have so few scenes?

When Ji Qi and Kato Megumi finished shopping and returned home, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

First help Xiaohui put all the things at home. Ji Qi learned that her parents were out visiting friends today and might not come back until tomorrow.

He didn't think much about it.

Well, absolutely not.

Overall, today's date was quite successful.

There was no male protagonist running away in the middle of a date to find other girls, and no strange people following him.

That being said, even if someone followed them, they would eventually be lost...

Kato Megumi still likes this feeling of stability.

She also didn't forget another thing that happened today.

"Senior, how about asking Izumi-chan to try to walk out of the room first, and then walk as far away as possible?"

Sound advice. If you want to go to school, getting out of your room is the first step.

"It's not that she can't leave the room, but she doesn't dare to contact others." Ji Qi said helplessly. Sagiri's condition? He was very clear about it.

"Well, I don't have any good ideas at the moment. How about letting someone else get in touch with her and train with her? For example, Kasumigaoka-senpai."

"I'll give it a try. We still have a game project, maybe we can use this opportunity to improve that guy's situation."

Ji Qi was not discouraged, even though it was expected. Moreover, he was quite surprised that Kato Megumi would recommend Kasumigaoka Utaha.

After all, Shiyu's cold look makes it clear that she is the type that is difficult to get along with, right?

"Then why is Izumi-sister considered an accessory heroine?"

Because the story mainly revolves around you...

Of course, Ji Qi only thought about this in his mind and did not say it out loud.

For some reason, Kato Megumi showed a very pure and innocent smile.

"Xiao Hui, since your uncle and aunt are out, why don't you stay for dinner today?"

"If you don't mind, it's ok, ok?"

"That's great."

Ji Qi also smiled. The two of them walked on the way home, facing the faint orange sunset. He really liked being with this girl who was as friendly as the girl next door.

Ah, think about it carefully, Kato Megumi also has the attributes of "girl next door", "childhood sweetheart" and "complaint actor"?

When I think about it this way, the character attributes are not weak at all...

"Xiaohui, I found a good game last time. It's called "Golden Memories". If you are interested, you can play it with Sagiri. The heroines are all blonde, right?"

"Senior, you suddenly like blondes?"

"I'm not, I didn't."

……

On a slope not far from Fengzhizaki, there is a building that people nearby talk about with great interest.

Looking through the gaps in the lush woods in the distance, this strange house built on the uphill slope looks like a medieval castle.

This is the home of a British diplomat.

In this quaint British-style room, the curtains were drawn tightly, and no sunlight could get through on the second floor. A girl with fair skin and dazzling blonde hair was randomly scattered, pressing the handle in her hand while complaining: "Ahhh, so annoying. Why do I have so few roles!"

After a while, the familiar 'happy end' logo appeared on the game console in her hand.

After finishing the game, Eriri Sawamura contentedly put the game console and controller aside, and then lay down on the clean mahogany floor, her beautiful big eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.

After satisfaction, there is endless emptiness.

This is also known as the sage mode.

With an ambiguous sigh, Eriri quickly stood up as if she had recovered her strength, sat in front of the computer, and put on large glasses that did not match her age and beauty.

Usually, when the weekend comes, Eriri will happily slack off until the evening, and then will rush to paint when she has no more time.

But today is different.

To be precise, it should be recently.

Looking at a color CG picture on the computer screen, Toyosaki's famous blonde lady fell into deep thought.

She started learning to paint at a young age, and when she grew up, her other name on the Internet, "Kashiwagi Eri", also became famous in the fan community.

Although she can't compare to those real genius monsters, Eriri is still quite confident in her painting skills.

The picture on the screen was not drawn by her.

So, is it better than her drawing?

It is indeed a little better.

There are many who draw better than her. What made her lose her mind was that this was a work by another member who was an artist in a club she had recently joined for unknown reasons.

Eromanga-sensei.

The circle of painters is very small. As a fellow painter, Sawamura Eriri is still quite interested in this person who never shows his true identity.

Well, to be honest, after seeing it, my impression of it was a little ruined.

In every sense.

However, this is not important.

The important thing is that Eromanga teacher, whose real name is Izumi Sagiri, is a girl who is one or two years younger than her. They were evenly matched some time ago, but now the other party is showing signs of surpassing her.

No, it should be said that it has surpassed it.

Her recent paintings are not as good as the other one's.

In fact, the two people have completely different styles.

Eromanga's paintings have a strong personal H style, and are never too explicit. Naturally, the reluctance-but-not-reluctant style adds a lot of points to the paintings.

She paints simply by relying on her delicate, exquisite and extremely rich experience.
