Toyokawa Shoko doesn't want to become a witch

Page 38

[Moonlight]: The project focuses on all-round talents. I am the producer and keyboardist. As for you, Ms. Yutenji Wakana, I know that you have a long experience in jazz drums. You can serve as the general director of the performance and also as the drummer. In the future, there will be many MVs, short films and even movies related to the project. You will have the lead.

【Meow Dream】: Will anyone buy into a project that involves a serious illness?

They even took advantage of me, they really didn't try to hide it at all.

But on the other hand, this is also a form of sincerity, and its credibility is actually higher.

[Moonlight]: If it doesn't work out, you only lose time; if it does, it's a lifetime of success.

[Moonlight]: This may be a life-changing decision; it all depends on you.

[Moonlight]: Why don't we meet? Maybe if we meet, you'll be able to make up your mind.

She was right. Since she wasn't investing, she wouldn't lose much even if the project failed.

Is it a life-altering choice?

Miaomeng chose the wrong path at the last fork in the road, but she is an unrepentant person.

If you give her another chance, she'll go all in again.

========

The next day.

Miao Meng walked into the upscale coffee shop she had chosen and sat down at a window seat with a good view.

From here, she can clearly see everyone who walks into the coffee shop.

She had already met many prominent figures when she was seeking investment, so this was just an in-person meeting and she wasn't nervous at all.

"call......"

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

She had a premonition that the future would veer off in an unpredictable direction.

At that moment, a quiet and elegant literary girl with blue hair, wearing a sun hat and black sunglasses, a beige top, a plaid skirt, white socks and leather shoes, came into view.

Miao Meng squinted as she watched her walk into the coffee shop.

Is it her?

It's very similar; from the way she walks to the aura she exudes, it perfectly matches her impression of the ID "Moonlight," but...

Her clothes are obviously counterfeit.

And it looks so familiar, the more I look at it, the more familiar it seems.

Miao Meng watched as the blue-haired girl approached her step by step.

Sitting opposite me.

Take off your sun hat and sunglasses.

Miao Meng's pupils shrank to their smallest size little by little.

The golden eyes and face overlapped with the giant human face that was several stories high in her memory, awakening the deepest fear in Miaomeng's heart.

Didn't she become a witch? Shouldn't she have been killed by Roselia?

Then isn't the person sitting in front of me now...?

"There's a ghost!"

A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the quiet coffee shop.

The Tale of Nirvana: Keeping to Your True Self: Chapter 47 I Talk Too Much When I'm Nervous

Miao Meng's scream startled everyone.

She couldn't even sit properly in her chair before falling backward to the ground with a thud.

Xiangzi seemed to have expected this. He calmly got up and apologized to everyone around him, saying that he had shown his friend a scary video and that he was sorry.

Then he went over and helped Miaomeng up.

Miao Meng would rather not be helped up, but her legs were trembling.

"You... how did you get here?"

"Let's talk about cooperation."

"You're kidding me! Did you kill me and make up a bunch of nonsense just to lure me offline? Wait a minute! You should be dead! Dead! How could you be here!"

"How did you know I was dead?" Xiangzi picked up the lemonade on the table, took a sip, and looked at her with interest.

"I don't know! I just know!" Miao Meng cursed, bracing herself against the table as she tried to stand up.

She needed to get out of this awful place as soon as possible.

I'll go anywhere, the farther the better. I simply can't stand being in this reed field anymore!

But before she could stand up, a tremendous force pressed her back into the chair.

Miaomeng's neck twisted backward like a wind-up toy.

"Are you Miss Ruomai? Xiangzi kept praising you to me yesterday. It's great to finally meet you. Good afternoon!"

A tall, blonde woman with shoulder-length hair, purple eyes, wearing a black baseball cap and round-framed sunglasses hanging around her neck appeared behind her without her noticing.

No, Miaomeng had a vague recollection; she had been sitting at the table behind her from the beginning, looking down at her phone.

"Su, sumimi's three...three...triangle first bloom?" Miaomeng's mouth opened and closed mechanically.

"Shh~" Chu Hua put her index finger to her lips.

The other hand, which was gripping Miaomeng's shoulder, applied a little more pressure.

Although Miaomeng had turned off her pain receptors, she could still hear the sound of her collarbone breaking.

His eyes glanced at Chu Hua's hand, the one that had broken his collarbone, and there, prominently, was the ring containing the soul gem on her hand.

Chu Hua bent down and whispered in Miao Meng's ear in a tone completely different from her friendly expression:

"If you know what's good for you, just behave and listen to me."

"..."

Miao Meng sighed for a long time, as if it were the first half of her life.

"At least Triangle Chuhua is involved in this, you're not lying to me."

She looked at Xiangzi.

What do you intend for me to do?

"Before that, I'd like to ask you a few questions," Xiangzi said slowly. "What did you see inside the barrier, and why were you so sure I was a witch?"

"Don't you know that yourself?" Miao Meng looked at her, puzzled.

"Do I need to know?"

"You're a witch, after all."

"I'm a witch!" Xiangzi repeated, mimicking Miaomeng's tone. "How come I didn't know I was a witch?"

"Isn't it?"

"The most important thing about intelligence is reliability, which is what you meant when you said, 'I'm reliable most of the time.'" Xiangzi pressed the veins on his forehead back down. "This is the second time you've almost killed me. It's already a great thing that I'm still willing to talk to you properly."

"Well, thank you so much for being willing to talk to me nicely."

"Tell me everything about the information you sold to Roselia, don't miss a single word."

"Oh......"

Miao Meng shifted her position awkwardly, knowing she had nowhere to run and could only obediently submit.

"Well, the day I met you, I didn't have anything planned. I happened to see Morfonica was having a live show, so after the live stream ended, I went to watch it. Who knew I'd run into Roselia's Ayako Udagawa at the CiRCLE entrance? I thought, 'Wow, what a lucky break!' So I quickly grabbed my selfie stick and went up to her for a photo. I think I even managed to capture Rinko Shirogane, who was acting as the teleprompter in the background. That video got a whopping 200,000 views, you know? It was a huge hit! And this was before we even got into the livehouse—"

Hey.

Xiangzi tapped the table and looked at Miaomeng with eyes that looked at a dead person.

"Why don't you start from the Big Bang?"

A chill emanated from behind Miaomeng. Chuhua reached out from behind Miaomeng and placed her hand on the table, gently pinching the ring on Miaomeng's middle finger.

"What a beautiful ring. It would be such a shame if it broke."

"—!"

Xiangzi slightly raised his eyes and looked at Chuhua.

Chu Hua winked at her, gave her a thumbs up, and her face seemed to say, "I did a great job, right? Come on, praise me!"

Xiangzi shook his head with a wry smile.

"Get to the point," Xiangzi said succinctly.

"I understand, I understand, I'll pick out the important points right away!"

"Meow Dream said, trembling."

"After that, we went into CiRCLE to watch Morfonica's live performance. Actually, I knew you were watching me then, but I pretended not to notice, and in the end, I really didn't notice. The atmosphere was so lively that I got caught up in the fun and forgot to leave. After the live performance, I saw you were still following me, so I thought I might as well go all out and bring you in to get some money to solve my problem. And you actually fell for it! I thought, 'This girl is so naive and easy to fool—'"

"Hmm?" Xiangzi raised an eyebrow.

Cluck cl ...

Chu Hua's fingertips transformed into sharp eagle claws, scratching Miao Meng's ring with a piercing sound.

"—! I'm sorry, I tend to talk a lot when I'm nervous. I'll get to the important part right away, I'll get to it soon. Please don't scare me like that!"

"continue."

"You know what happened next, right? After I pulled you into the barrier, I figured you were going to die anyway, so I could take the Seed of Lamentation whenever I wanted and went home to sleep. But I was thirsty, so I bought a matcha latte at the Starbucks next door and, as usual, took a shortcut through the pine forest back to my apartment. And then—"

"result?"

"Ha—! I just couldn't catch my breath." Miao Meng covered her chest with the hand that Chu Hua wasn't holding down and gasped for breath a few times.

"I've had enough. You'd be better off dead." Xiangzi snapped his fingers.

Chu Hua raised her hand in response, and a small round shield appeared on her left arm, smashing towards the ring on Miao Meng's hand.

"Wait, wait, wait! I know I was wrong! On my way back to my apartment, I was suddenly pulled into a barrier by Nirvana. It was a cyber city I had never seen before. I was stunned and didn't know what was happening. But then I heard a loud bang, and a head as tall as a ten-story building fell in front of me. I recognized your face immediately. Do you know how terrifying that scene was? I almost couldn't catch my breath. I kicked my legs and passed away peacefully. But just when I thought I was going to die, the barrier suddenly disappeared. Do you understand what I'm saying now?!"

Xiangzi stared at her blankly.

Chu Hua's hand also loosened.

"What, what's wrong?"

"I didn't hear you clearly, say it again," Xiangzi said.

Miao Meng's eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

drop.

"Um......"

When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by a blue sky and white clouds.

The wind brushed against my skin.

It was so quiet all around that you could only hear the wind.

Miao Meng almost thought she was in heaven. She blinked and propped herself up.
