Angry Nyamu (Continued)
Nagasaki Sose was thrilled by the thought of traveling and taking photos together, playing the Kasugakage at the inn, and spending the night together at the inn.
It's decided! We must make this Riki Crychic exclusive trip a success!
Nagasaki Sose's gaze was resolute.
Chihaya Anon, standing beside her, was so dizzy she couldn't speak, her heart pounding with nervousness.
Wait a minute, does that mean Riki and I are the only ones in Mygo who don't have that kind of relationship? Rakuna-chan is just a child and not considered, so I'm the only one left!
Hey, do I want one too?
But I'm just experiencing being a girlfriend, do I have to do all the things a real girlfriend would do?!
Chihaya Anon blushed and seemed a little flustered.
Speaking of which, how did that incident feel?
As a high school student, Aine is gradually approaching the legal adult standard. The curiosity she feels about the adult world from the bottom of her heart during her teenage years is irrepressible, especially since she has good friends around her who have experienced it.
Let's secretly ask Deng, Rikki, and Sushi later.
Kaname Runa listened to their conversation and nodded thoughtfully.
As Riki watched Rikki and the others leave, she turned to go back to the living room and saw Sumiida Mana staring at Riki in surprise.
"You made a move on Akari-chan too?!"
That's incredibly fast!
I hadn't even had a chance to correct you, and you'd already snagged another beautiful girl.
Hey, are you a human or a gigolo?!
Riki Mana also surprised to see Mana caught cheating!
"What should I do..." Sumiida Mana sighed deeply, feeling utterly helpless.
"Mana, think about it from a different perspective. If I were a god, it would be normal for me to have multiple girlfriends, right?" Riki comforted Mana from a different angle.
Sumiida Mana looked at Riki with a helpless yet understanding expression, and smiled, nodding, "Yes, Mana understands."
That look in her eyes is so maternal!
It's like a gentle mother watching her son do something silly.
Riki looked at Mana and thought for a moment, perhaps this was a good opportunity to win Mana over.
"Mana, if I prove to you later that I am a god, how about Mana become my Miko?" Riki asked.
Sumiida Mana raised her index finger and earnestly lectured, "Miko is not a god's girlfriend."
"But since I saw the nun as a bride, I thought the Miko would be similar."
"What kind of nun is Riki looking at?"
"The Battle Nun, the Emperor's Bride," Riki said.
"It's not some cult, is it? Riki, calm down. Those doctrines are all lies. Okay, okay, I'll be your Miko, don't believe in those things..." Sumiida Mana panicked immediately.
Thankfully, this is the BanG Dream! world, not the 40K world, otherwise Mana would be in trouble.
"Mana, I was talking about the game," Riki said.
"Well..." Sumiida Mana said.
"What about the Miko you mentioned earlier..." Riki asked tentatively.
"Of course it's not true!"
It seems I'll have to wait until I fully master the Power of Small Wear before I can truly make Mana my Miko.
As a professional band, Mujica naturally had more professional practice locations and facilities at the company. Riki led them through a brief rehearsal for their upcoming live performance.
"That should be about right."
Riki nodded after listening to the performance.
"If this doesn't work, I'm going to kill myself." Miao Meng lay on the drum stand, looking at Riki helplessly, her forehead covered in sweat, her hands so sore she could barely lift them.
Simply put, it's almost there.
The rest of Mujica were also somewhat tired.
"It's almost evening, let's rest for a while and then go back," Riki said, glancing at the time.
"No way! That's my date time!" Miaomeng quickly raised her hand.
She has a problem with it!
It will resemble that later, but not for now.
"Let's go, Riki, it's time for our date!" Miao Meng, who had been looking exhausted, suddenly became full of energy.
"Then we'll head back now, Riki," Toyokawa Sakiko said to Riki with a smile. "Remember to come home early."
Sakiko-bao, when did you become so trusting of me?
What if I get kidnapped by that strange older sister?
Before Riki could speak, Miao Meng pulled him out the door.
"Where are we going?" Riki asked.
"Of course, we should go to places where we can spend money freely and promote the economic cycle!" Miao Meng winked playfully and smiled as she put her arm around Riki's.
Could it be... a place of trembling?
Of course not.
"I'm not going to Ginza, I don't have much money on me," Riki said.
"Of course I know. You and Sakiko need to pay back the money to other places first," Miaomeng said with a smile. She thought for a moment and then said, "Then let's go to Shibuya. There are a lot of cheap shops there. I used to go there often when I was short of money!"
Miaomeng has also experienced poverty.
Now, through her own efforts, she has become a moderately wealthy woman.
As dusk settled, Tokyo, the city that never sleeps, was just beginning to radiate its vitality. Students lingered on the streets after school, chasing and playing, while office workers chatted and complained about their bosses at izakayas after work, and the streets were bustling with traffic.
"Hmph~"
Riki looked at Miao Meng, who was humming a song happily beside her. Her expression remained cheerful, even when she was being scolded by her mother.
If Riki put herself in her mother's shoes, she would have already started losing her pearls if she were scolded like that.
It's not that Riki isn't strong-willed.
Even the strongest person's defenses crumble when facing their mother.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he jumped in a moment of impulsiveness.
One can only imagine the psychological trauma Miaomeng suffered at that time.
But she was still able to smile.
"I'm exhausted after practicing all day. Now I'll take a good rest and go to the Second-hand Store to buy some interesting things!"
Miao Meng excitedly dragged Riki into Second-hand Store in Shibuya.
Second-hand Store are commonly known as secondhand shops. Depending on the store, you can buy almost anything at Second-hand Store.
Looking at the dazzling array of goods in front of her, Miaomeng excitedly shared with Riki, "I started filming here when I first became a YouTuber. Occasionally, you can find leftover cosmetics here. If you happen to be able to buy them at a low price, you've hit the jackpot, although most of the time they're sold at a high price!"
This was the first time Riki had seen Miao Meng with such a happy smile.
A genuinely happy smile, without any pretense.
This pure joy brought a smile to Riki's face as well.
"This ugly-cute monster head doll is still here. I had a feeling four years ago that no one would buy something like this, and I was right." Miao Meng smiled with a look of reminiscence in her eyes.
"Riki, do you know, the first time I tried wearing makeup and filming a video to post online, the first comment was calling me an ugly monster. I thought to myself, you're the ugly monster. You only dare to bully me online. When I got back to my rented room, I hugged my pillow and cried. It took me half a month to pull myself together and continue filming videos."
"You were only in your first year of high school then, right?" Riki asked.
Is it really necessary to work this hard?
"To earn money, I tried working at convenience stores and other places, but student restrictions prevented me from working for too long." Miao Meng sighed, then happily added, "Fortunately, after a year of lukewarm success, I slowly figured out the knack for making videos. You see... you have to be happy, that's how people watch my videos!"
Miao Meng looked up at Riki and gave him a bright smile.
It was a smile that instantly brightened up the Second-hand Store, drawing the attention of many customers at the door.
Looking at Miaomeng's smile, Riki said, "It's not as pretty as your smile just now."
Miao Meng paused for a moment, then looked at Riki and chuckled, "Is that so?"
She turned to look at the merchandise in the store, picked up a lipstick, and said, "You know, Riki, this kind of lipstick looks even better when it's wet..."
Isn't all red the same color?
Riki felt that she was colorblind.
"How about you buy this for me? It'll only cost 1000 yen." Miao Meng looked at Riki expectantly.
Riki had exactly one thousand yen in her wallet.
"You're eyeing my wallet, aren't you?" Riki sighed.
However, Miaomeng really worked hard in rehearsals today, so it's okay to buy her a cheap lipstick.
She clearly has so many high-end lipsticks, why did she ask me to give her this?
Riki spent all her savings on lipsticks for Miao Meng, who happily accepted them.
As the two walked out of the shop, the handsome young man and beautiful young woman immediately drew the attention of passersby.
"Bringing your girlfriend to Second-hand Store? This boyfriend seems pretty poor," a passing Japanese girl muttered quietly.
Japanese girl, buddy, you may be poor, but your spirit is high.
A promising stock.
My potential lies in the number of dollars in my husband's bank account.
Riki was thinking about it casually when she was suddenly surprised to find that Miao Meng's face had darkened, and for the first time... there was no smile on her face.
Miao Meng stared blankly at the girl who had spoken, her face seemingly filled with murderous intent, which startled the girl, who quickly quickened her pace and left.
Passersby were also a little startled by the sudden change in the girl's expression. Some recognized her as the popular YouTuber, Nyanko, and took out their phones to curiously film her.
Riki quickly grabbed Miao Meng's hand and ran until they reached a deserted park before stopping.
"Why did you suddenly change your expression? You looked like you were about to kill someone. If that gets filmed online, your reputation will be ruined. Didn't we agree that your smile is the key...?"
Riki turned her head and saw Miao Meng's calm face.
She was rarely this quiet, but now you could almost see the most direct emotion in her eyes: anger.
"Back when we lived at home, my mom often complained about my dad for not earning enough money; she called him a poor wretch," Miao Meng suddenly said, looking at Riki. "I got very angry when I heard people say that about you."
"Why?"
Miao Meng paused for a moment, then tapped her chin thoughtfully and chuckled softly, "Probably because I like you."
Riki looked at her.
She dropped the smiling mask she had worn for years for Riki.
"I didn't have much money before, and with the pressure from my mom, I always worked hard to earn money, wanting to become rich so that girls my age wouldn't laugh at me. You know, I was so unfashionable in high school, but that's all in the past. So when I heard someone say that to you just now, I guess I was thinking about myself, and I got a little angry."
"But it's so frustrating, I don't even know if I really like you." Miao Meng sighed, then looked up at Riki and smiled, "But never mind, I'll know when we have the Tokyo Dome performance."
"If you had rejected me back then, it would have been my turn to pursue you," Riki said.
"..." Miao Meng blinked and teased, "You're this touched that I stood up for you?"
"Probably, I was indeed moved," Riki said with a smile.
Miao Meng stared blankly at Riki, then suddenly jumped onto Riki's lap and laughed, "I'm so tired! I practiced all day and I can't even lift my arms. Riki, carry me home!"
No, what does hand soreness have to do with foot soreness?
Riki thought to herself, but still carried Miao Meng on her back and grabbed her thighs with both hands.
