I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

The kid was so sweet. Chitose also happened to find the movie she wanted to watch at this time, "Bohemian Rhapsody", which was also about a band.

Everything is just right, so happy.

At this moment, there was a rustling sound of footsteps outside the house. The last time she strengthened her body's endurance, her physical strength was improved, and her hearing became more acute.

【Is it Xiangzi?】

Xiangzi's father Qiansui was rarely seen. The few times they had met before, they had only seen him playing pachinko, betting on horses, or drinking beer.

"Wait here for me, I'm going to go get the pots and pans I lent my neighbor last time."

Leaving a word behind and accompanying the two girls in the living room, Chitose decided that it was necessary to continue to stabilize Xiangzi, the unstable factor.

Well... although it may not sound nice to call it an unstable factor, we have to admit that many times Xiangzi does make other things complicated because of certain things.

He opened and closed the door, and just as he went out, he met the dejected Shoko Toyokawa.

His blue twin ponytails hung limply, and Xiangzi looked more miserable than ever.

At this time, Xiangzi also discovered Qiansui.

Chitose Noshiro could see the helplessness in Xiangzi's golden pupils when talking to him.

At this moment, she was like a little animal in distress.

Very... soft and sticky.

Very tasty.

……

Today, Shoko Toyokawa did not go to work. She strolled outside alone for a long time. Finally, she suddenly remembered a short dialogue she had read before at a street corner:

What should I do if I suffer from depression?

【That’s not easy, just try to fall in love with it! 】

【Then what? 】

【Then it will leave you, just like the person you once loved. 】

Ha ha…

She watched her former friends drift away from her and become her friends' new friends, while she herself had nothing.

Well... this is not jealousy, because Xiangzi doesn't hate Chitose. Chitose has always been a very good person. He cares about her, takes care of her emotions, and never touches her sensitive spots.

[I just feel complicated. Something that once belonged to me is completely gone.]

Shoko Toyokawa wasn't even sure if she could become friends with everyone again... But forget it, it would only hurt everyone.

"Ugh…"

Sighing one after another, Xiangzi felt that the only thing he could do was to grit his teeth and move forward.

Walking back to the dilapidated rental house alone, Xiangzi turned the door lock with sleepy eyes.

I was so sleepy and tired that I just opened the door and slept in the hallway.

But at this moment, the girl who made Xiangzi feel complicated appeared.

She was like a little deer that suddenly emerged from the forest mist, looking at him with such clarity that Xiangzi dared not look directly at her.

"Hey, can you talk to me?"

Noshiro Chitose did not rush to approach the other party, but slowly walked towards her cute little prey.

You know what's the perfect place to commit a crime? This is it.

Xiangzi's father would not come out to see what was going on, and his conversation at home would not be overheard because the movie was playing.

There were no passers-by within a few miles, only the street lights across the street were flickering.

The streetlights kept flickering.

[Here, she can communicate with Xiaoxiang peacefully——]

Qiansui tilted his head, his smile unchanged.

...... ...... ......

Ch189. Chitose Noshiro's unique way of making friends

Do you know why you keep laughing?

Smiling all the time will lower the victim's guard, especially since Chitose Noshiro looks particularly good when she smiles.

"Talk? What do you want to talk about... We don't have..."

"Shh, Xiaoxiang, don't say anything yet."

Qiansui had already gotten close to Xiangzi when Xiangzi wasn't noticing, which surprised Xiangzi.

[Wait, when did that happen? I…I wasn’t paying attention.]

Xiangzi didn't usually pay special attention so she didn't know how big the height difference between them was, but now that Chitose was standing in front of her, she could clearly feel that Chitose was a forehead taller than her.

With his back to the street light, Chitose's shadow enveloped Toyokawa Shoko. In Chitose's shadow, Shoko's heart beat faster every second than the previous one.

All the air she breathed in was filled with the fiery scent that belonged only to Chitose.

"Xiaoxiang, can you give me your hand?"

Chitose's tone was so unshakable that Xiangzi felt like curling up into a ball.

Coupled with the red eyes shining with golden light in the dark night, Xiangzi subconsciously took a step back.

"I…"

"Thank you for your cooperation," Qiansui had already held Xiangzi's little hand when Xiangzi retreated, and carefully pulled her forward, and the two of them stuck together again.

During Qiansui's long simulation career, she learned one thing, which is...

[Reasoning with others and slowly appeasing them is the slowest way to achieve results, and may even make you feel embarrassed.]

So how should we comfort someone? The answer is:

[Isn't it faster if I just go and PUA her?]

She is a bad woman. To deal with a female high school student, why not just show off her proud business skills?

There is no point in being hesitant, especially when dealing with a complex character like Toyokawa Shoko.

Qiansui slowly raised Xiangzi's hand and pressed her on his heart.

"You! What are you doing! I, I, I..."

Xiangzi blushed and wanted to take his hand back, but Qiansui stopped Xiangzi with just the right amount of force.

"Xiaoxiang, did you hear that? That's my heartbeat. Isn't it nice to hear?"

"What? You just want to let me hear your heartbeat! I..."

The soft feeling on her hands made Xiangzi feel like her soul was melting. She herself didn't even know why the useless fat on Chitose's body felt so good.

"Yes, Xiangzi, yes, I see you are very tired, so I thought of letting you listen to my heartbeat. After all, I heard that listening to a friend's heartbeat can soothe a person's fatigue."

"These are just rumors I heard somewhere..."

Xiangzi muttered quietly, but he didn't take his hands off Qiansui.

She swore that it was just Qiansui who didn't let her pull her hand away, not that she didn't want to move.

Qiansui stopped talking and just walked forward in small steps.

At the same time, Xiangzi was controlled by Qiansui and forced to retreat. There were only two families of theirs on this floor. At the end of the corridor was a corner where cardboard boxes were piled up. Qiansui controlled Xiangzi in the corner.

"Xiao Sui...what are you going to do..."

Xiangzi was surprised to find that her voice was surprisingly soft now, and she was even ashamed to admit that it was her voice.

"Do not talk."

After Qiansui said these three short words, there was no more sound. She just looked at Xiangzi quietly.

One second, ten seconds, or even a minute, maybe ten minutes had passed? But Xiangzi didn't know.

She was forced to make eye contact with Qiansui. The red eyes were so mysterious. It was so dark around her that there was no light at all.

Qiansui's eyes became Xiangzi's only source of light in the darkness.

The five rings were arranged so closely together that Xiangzi almost fainted.

【ah…】

It was so quiet that Xiangzi could only hear her and Qiansui's breathing. In his hands, he was holding the softest treasure in the world. Even his fatigue and annoyance seemed to be dissipating.

Xiangzi even had the idea that it would be nice if he could live like this for the rest of his life.

Finally, it was Chitose who broke the silence of the night, her lips moving open and closed:

"How are you? Are you feeling better now? Can you communicate with me properly, my lovely Xiaoxiang?"

"Um…"

Chitose's voice was also very pleasant, so sweet that it sent shivers down Xiangzi's spine.

"Xiao Xiang, promise me that you won't hide from me anymore, okay? I'll be sad and upset because of your neglect. You are my best friend, I hope we can talk everything out, okay?"

[Best friend? Me? Really?!]

"The lights..."

"Xiaoxiang is my best friend. Just remember this."

Chitose Noshiro used the classic tactic of avoiding the main point and changing the subject, but because her tone was so firm, Xiangzi didn't even notice it.

"I...I'm sorry, Xiaosui...I..."

"Xiao Xiang, are you feeling sad? After all, they used to be your friends, right? But now they are no longer your friends?"

Chitose really knows! Chitose really knows...

Xiangzi had the urge to continue running away, but the treasure in her hand was too soft, the air around her smelled too good, and Chitose's voice was too pleasant...her body didn't really want to escape.

"Yes...it's sad, but I know it's my choice, there's nothing I can do..."

"Xiao Xiang, there's no need to feel so bad."

Seeing that Xiangzi had walked step by step into the trap he had carefully set, Qiansui's mouth corners unconsciously curled up in the darkness.

"Because, Xiaoxiang still has me. Even though they've left Xiaoxiang, Xiaoxiang still has me... Haven't I always been by Xiaoxiang's side? Xiaoxiang, don't overthink it."

Chitose tried to make sure that the speed of his every sentence was the same, because when combined with an absolutely comfortable environment, it would be easier for people to be understood by speaking this way.

These were just some of Chitose's ways of making friends quickly. Before she could even exert much strength, Xiangzi had already gone limp, leaving many of her tricks useless.

What a bummer.

"Xiao Sui, have I always had you?"

Xiangzi believed Chitose's words because only then did she accept the fact that Noshiro Chitose was her only friend now.

Deng and Su Shi are two examples… It wasn’t until today that Xiangzi realized that he was much less important than he thought.

"Yes, Xiangzi still has me now. I am the only one who will treat Xiangzi well. So please, my lovely little Xiangzi, rely on your Qiansui more. After all, we are best friends, aren't we?"

He launched the concept substitution countless times again, but each time there was no clue left, and Noshiro Chitose was slowly going deeper.

As long as Xiangzi remains stable, everyone else can remain stable too.

Chitose remembers... Uh, everyone still cares about Xiangzi to some extent, right? Probably.

Ch190. Forced to conquer, modest and tolerant, overbearing or showing off one's evil deeds?

Will you be the one to return the rose to me?

……

In the end, Qiansui stopped talking again. She just hugged Xiangzi carefully, making Xiangzi feel that he was about to be rubbed into Qiansui's body.

Even the strongest mouth would become soft at this point.

"Xiao Sui, I'm sorry."
