MyGO!!! I am the succubus Xiaoxiang?

It's alright, it's nothing, nothing at all!

After cooking some rice in the rice cooker, Xiangzi sat down to finish his studies.

I had just finished and stood up when I heard someone yelling "Damn it! Those guys! Damn it!!" from inside the room, and then they kept pounding on the wall.

The whole house shook slightly from the punches and kicks coming from inside.

then.

"Um!?"

Looking at the sudden darkness, I realized the lights had gone out.

Kneeling in front of the table, surrounded by darkness.

It's okay, it's okay.

Don't overthink it, everything will be alright!

Xiangzi sat alone at the table at night.

However, do not go into that night gently.

Humans are not incapable of stopping, but they cannot stay alone in the darkness.

Darkness can devour people.

of course.

It's not darkness that eats people.

It is your despair.

Looking out at the bright lights and bustling activity, I could hear the laughter of a family next door.

I sat alone in the quiet room.

It was so quiet you could hear a cockroach crawling by.

People can go crazy.

Xiangzi calmly analyzed his situation.

However, tranquility is a terrifying thing.

Fear, anger, and dislike are your body's way of telling you that you are uncomfortable.

And calmly accept the painful words.

You can't think like that.

Xiangzi quickly separated himself from the situation.

Reach out and pick up your favorite water glass.

Yes, it's definitely my favorite. In the light shining from next door, in the light of families gathered together, the water glass still looks quite nice.

"Hey, good evening."

Looking at the cockroach crawling out of his cup, Xiangzi forced a smile and said.

That's good. It's late at night, and I'm not alone at home. At least there are still cockroaches around.

Hey hey hey.

Just kidding, of course I can't be there!

Xiangzi put his hands on his hips and stretched out his sleeves as he began to clean the room.

Ah, the wine my father just bought is all gone, only empty bottles remain on the ground. His wallet is empty too, even though he gave me some change.

Well, I might not even run into myself when I go to buy alcohol tomorrow.

That way, I wouldn't be so embarrassed.

Then they called and demanded money, saying they had to deliver it themselves or else they'd be taken to the police station.

I don't want to think about this! Just slip me some money.

After everything was tidied up.

Go out and buy a light bulb, change it, then look at your clean and tidy home, take a sip of water from your favorite cup, and then head out to the public bathhouse for a nice bath!

Feel the warm water gradually eroding your body.

Looking at his reflection in the water, Xiangzi forced a smile.

Yes, you have a very nice smile, Toyokawa Shoko!

After all, I am the best.

Then, I went home and opened the door.

Look at all those empty bottles on the floor!

Where did this come from? Wasn't it lost? Wait a minute! Could it be that the money I just put in has turned into this cheap liquor?

The room flickered for a few minutes after the light was turned on, then went dark again.

The lights of family reunions shone down from all around.

. . . . . .

Xiangzi was very calm, extremely calm.

The calmness could be described as despair, just like right now, I could turn around, go to the tallest tower on the other side, and jump down without any problem.

no problem.

Right? That's just how life is.

At worst, I'll just stop living, isn't that enough?

My mother-in-law is absolutely right.

Xiangzi always seems to want to save the world with love.

After all, if you're not optimistic enough, don't love the world enough, don't love everyone enough, and don't give it your all...

Xiangzi didn't know how he was going to survive.

Its predecessor was truly amazing.

It's amazing that they can still live optimistically.

But it's okay, I can do it myself.

Kneel down in front of the table and take a deep breath.

I can hear the cicadas chirping next door.

Hey! The cicadas are chirping! What does the chirping of cicadas signify?

The cicadas are chirping, does that mean people are going crazy?

When a person goes wicked, the ghost laughs?

The ghost is laughing, who knows?

Who knew that a teru teru bozu (Japanese teru bozu doll) was hanging in front of the door?

Just kidding, how could I be so fragile?

Xiangzi reached out to take his cup.

Then I was startled by the cockroaches that crawled out of it.

"Snapped!"

The cup shattered instantly.

It's just a cup.

But for some reason, Xiangzi suddenly couldn't help but shed tears.

. . . . . .

"I want to go home!"

Xiangzi's voice sounded lonely and desolate in the darkness.

I didn't expect that this is the world I live in.

I didn't do anything.

why.

Why did I come into this world? Is it because the gods want to torment me?

"Beep, beep~"

"Hmm?" Xiangzi sniffed subconsciously, covered his face, afraid of startling someone, and then picked up his phone and looked at it.

"Xiangzi, I've come to see you today."

"Hey, Xiao Mu, what's wrong?" Xiangzi quickly replied.

"Because Xiangzi said, why don't you talk to Xiangzi? Is it because Xiangzi didn't come to me? If Xiangzi doesn't come to me, can't I go to Xiangzi? So, I went to Xiangzi."

It was a joke I made with Xiao Mu before.

Xiao Mu actually took it seriously.

"Hey!" Through the screen, Xiangzi thought of the well-behaved Wakaba Mutsu who typed those words.

Slightly, her breathing became a little lighter.

Perhaps, when you feel that the world doesn't need you at all, or even hates you.

Actually, I am also someone's darling.

Perhaps, without Xiaomu, I won't be able to turn anymore, and the world will collapse?

Hehehe, just kidding.

how is this possible.

just.

Xiao Xiang, Xiao Xiang, don't forget, there are still people who need you!

You can't rest yet, Saki!

After all, it would be awkward to show a bitter expression.

Xiao Mu will be sad.

Hmph, if I, as the older sister, make my younger sister worry, then wouldn't that mean I'm not the older sister?

spread!

She's a beautiful girl who dreams of becoming a hero who makes everyone happy.

Hero, you can't run away from the battlefield!

Xiangzi gently patted his cheeks and picked up his phone.

"Hmm, yeah! If I don't talk to you, you won't look for me anymore?"

“So, we found Xiangzi,” Ruoye Mu replied.

"Oh, I see. So, what kind of reward does the obedient Xiao Mu want? After all, Xiao Mu took the initiative to come to me."

"I want to hear Xiangzi sing!"

"Huh?" Why so suddenly?

"Because I wanted to listen, I wanted to listen before going to sleep, and today, Mom came back."

Xiao Mu sent over a picture of a lonely teddy bear.

"It's bedtime, but I can't sleep because I'm holding my toy. My mom is gone, and I can't sleep without my toy."

Xiangzi looked at the message Mu sent.

"why?"

"Today, my mother came back. I was touching my dolls and said, 'All you do all day is play. I work hard outside for you, and all you do is play.' Then she threw away all the dolls."
