Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　Isn't this just saying I'm stupid?

　With such self-awareness, Yao Chuanguang pouted angrily, like a pufferfish: "No way... I can still get good grades even if I do Xiao Cui's problems now."

　That's a primary school student's question!

　If you still can't get good grades, then that's really outrageous.

　"..." Cong Yu gave Yao Chuanguang a disdainful look, then kicked her butt with her leg: "We're here. You take Xiao Cui inside. I'll wait for you outside."

　"..."

　"!!!" Yaochuan Guang's eyes widened as he pointed at Congyu: "Congyu-chan, the action you just did seems like something a high school girl should do!"

　As she said this, Yaochuan Guang felt that she should kick back with a similar action, and she enthusiastically hooked her leg...

　Then he kicked himself in the butt.

　"Ouch—"

　"..." JKs kicking each other's butts, this action seems to have become popular because of recent anime, and it is considered a cute and interesting little action.

　However, for Cong Yu, this actually conveys the message "Climb, climb, climb, climb for me"... This is the gap of the times.

　The future is the future, that's beyond question.

　Thinking of this, Cong Yu's expression remained unchanged. She simply sat down in the chair, looked at Yao Chuan Guang who was clutching his bottom, and led Xiao Cui into the barbershop.

　Xiao Cui's hair has grown quite long, especially around her temples. It often feels itchy, so she needs to get it trimmed.

　"..." Cong Yu silently looked at her phone, sighed, and took off her hair tie, letting her hair fall loose in an instant...

　His hair is so long now, it's almost down to his butt. He should probably use the Seven Emperors' Sword to cut himself.

　Or, to put it another way, should we bother the Snow Woman once in a while?

　(Snow Girl: Great!)

　But I decided against it. It's fine to keep it long. I'll just put it under my butt as a cushion.

　(Yuki-onna: ...)

　With that in mind, Cong Yu straightened her hair and tied it back into her usual long ponytail.

　Then...

　"Drip, drip, drip—"

　"L!"

　"..." Ah, it's raining.

　Cong Yu, with her hair tied up, looked up at the raindrops that were beginning to fall, and for some reason, she started watching the rain.

　It fell coldly, silently hitting the road.

　This was a lukewarm rain.

　It carried no warmth whatsoever, as if performing a mechanical task, and possessed an indescribable indifference.

　In the cold rain, people hurried by, placing their briefcases on their heads, each fulfilling their role as passersby and strangers.

　"Da la da la—"

　Then, as Cong Yu watched all this with indifference, a commotion came from the vending machine next to her.

　It sounds a bit like a knocking sound.

　"Da la da la—"

　"..." Cong Yu stood up with some curiosity, walked into the rain, and moved closer while letting the raindrops hit her body.

　Then, a small snake with a wagging tail appeared before his eyes.

　It was a short, chubby snake hiding next to the vending machine, looking up at the rain shelter...

　A "crackling" sound came from the tail.

　It looks adorable overall, like it stepped right out of an anime. Its body looks soft and fluffy, with hardly any scales.

　Cong Yu: "..."

　Then, seemingly noticing Cong Yu watching it, the little snake trembled with fright and crawled to a corner, shivering.

　A rattlesnake? But its appearance is rather strange, and it unexpectedly looks very human-like... Is it a monster?

　"Cong Yu-chan? Why are you in the rain?"

　Then, Yaochuan Guang's surprised expression came from behind. Then she pulled Xiao Cui along and ran over.

　They were also getting rained on.

　In response, Cong Yu looked at the small snake that had shrunk even closer because of Yao Chuanguang's appearance and asked, "Are you afraid of snakes?"

　"what?"

　Unsure why Congyu asked that question, Yaochuan Guang curiously leaned closer to take a look, then exclaimed in surprise, "Nobuta serpent! So cute, is it taking shelter from the rain?"

　It seems that Yaochuan Guang is not afraid of snakes.

　"Wild Tsuchigumo, what is that?"

　Cong Yu asked this question, and Yao Chuan Guang immediately provided an explanation.

　"It's just a legend, a legend about a fat and short snake."

　"..." The three of them stood in the cold rain, staring at the shivering little snake. They could almost see the snake's nervous expression.

　Yaochuan Guang immediately pressed his warm body against hers, shaking Congyu's arm and saying, "Congyu-chan! Let's take her home and raise her!"

　As he made this suggestion, Yaochuan Guang looked at Xiaocui: "Xiaocui, are you afraid of snakes? What about you, Congyu-chan? If you are... never mind."

　Xiao Cui shook her head at this.

　It goes without saying that Cong Yu is afraid of snakes, which is rather strange... because his own prototype is also a snake.

　However, things don't look so good on Lantianzhu's side...

　She may have PTSD about snakes.

　Thinking this, Cong Yu picked up the trembling wild hammer snake with one hand and stroked its head... It was very fat, and it felt really good.

　"Why do you want to pick up everything you see and keep it as a pet? If this keeps up, our house will soon become a zoo."

　Cong Yu commented.

　Yao Chuanguang: "???"

　A zoo? But we've never had any pets at home.

　Seeing Yaochuan Guang's puzzled expression, Cong Yu pointed at Yaochuan Guang and then at Xiao Cui: "Look... a dog, and a cat."

　Yaochuan Guang's face instantly turned into a pufferfish again, but he barked like a dog: "Woof woof... Woof! Why are you still holding onto this, woof!"

　Xiao Cui: ……

　Xiao Cui didn't quite understand, but she was greatly shocked... Could this be some kind of special way of playing?

　Thinking this, Xiao Cui gently raised her hand, waved it like a lucky cat, and meowed in confusion, "Meow?"

　Wow! So cute!

　Yao Chuan Guang looked at the adorable Xiao Cui, his eyes shining, and then, as if remembering something, asked, "Then what kind of animal is Xiao Lan?"

　Cong Yu thought about it uncertainly.

　"Um……"

　The image of a magical girl with eerie blue wings on her back, launching a flying kick with a mixture of fear and determination, came to mind.

　"..."

　"I'm a magical girl too, really!"

　Yao Chuan Guang complained, pouting as she poked Cong Yu's waist: "But weren't you also someone I picked up and took home... Look, didn't you?"

　"..." Ah, that's not wrong either.

　Cong Yu thought to herself, smiled gently, and held the plump wild rattlesnake, watching it wriggle in her hand.

　"Let's leave it at that... um, time to go back."

　-

　"Aaaaaah!!! There's a snake...take it away, take it away!!!"

　Lantian Zhu's reaction seemed quite strong. Although it was a little less intense than her reaction to the cockroaches she had encountered before, she was still very nervous: "You're not allowed to keep them! Hikaru, if you keep them, I'm definitely moving away!"

　"..."

　"Ugh... How did this happen?"

　Yaochuan Guang, puzzled, grabbed the struggling little snake and showed it to Lantian Zhu: "Look, isn't it cute?"

　Lan Tianzhu: "Ahhh... um—"

　Finally, Lan Tianzhu fainted.

　……

　Therefore, the Wild Hammer Snake was entrusted to Alisa of the Far Shore. Although Gareth of the Far Shore usually took care of it, that's another story…

　Summer vacation is almost over, thanks to the cold rain and the embrace of the magical girl who dispels the chill...

　……

　Has anything changed?

　perhaps.

　To put it simply, snakes are such easy-to-understand animals... They're cold, but if you keep them warm, they'll get cozy, and then they'll think—

　The big tree branch (owner) seems to be doing quite well.

　Open a bounty

　This is my first time offering a bounty, so I don't have much experience.

　Anyway...

　5000 rewards will add one more chapter.

　50 blades plus one more.

　Can I shamelessly ask for recommendation votes and monthly tickets?

　(^^*).

　……

　I calculate the amount of extra chapters needed and the chapters I owe each month, and I will try my best to make up for them before the book is finished. If I can't make up for them, I will continue to make up for them when the next book is released. There is no need to worry about abandoning the book.

　If this book is abandoned, I'll just gender-swap it into the Mad Moon Maiden!

　If you send a treasure chest, I'll add an extra chapter on top of the reward calculation... let's say an extra 5 chapters.

　Although I don't think there will be any need to use these rules.

　……

　I hope I don't ramble on and on only to find no one giving me a tip, and it turns out I'm just putting on a one-man show.

　Oops! No way! (crying)

　Chapter 206 might be a boat travel player

　By early September, the city had shed the heat of August and become cool... or rather, not just summer.

　The same is true in winter.

　The environment in the windy city is always inexplicably pleasant... The summer wind is cool, while the winter wind is warm.

　In the new semester, students also begin to play their own new personas... which is perfectly normal.

　Students of this age often imagine themselves as characters from movies, TV shows, or popular anime, creating a humorous effect.

　"I will protect everyone at Manaria Academy!"

　"Where did you get Manaria Academy from...? There's only Fuuto High School, okay?"
