Zhou Yuang glanced at Bourbon beside him again and noticed that her brow seemed even more tightly furrowed.
"Actually, I said all that just now to see whether you'd stand up for McQueen."
"Is that so? Phew... thank goodness."
Hearing Zhou Yuang's words, which sounded somewhere between a lie and the truth, Rice Shower touched her chest, then turned to look at Bourbon beside her.
"Um, Trainer-san, why did you come looking for her instead of Miss McQueen? Does that mean she's more important than Miss McQueen? Besides, Miss McQueen told me that the trainer named 'Mysterious Trainer A' would only ever love her for his entire life. That's true, isn't it?"
"..."
Wait, what was going on?
She'd said that too? Why hadn't I heard about it?
Did McQueen add that herself, just like that line about her being the Mejiro Family's greatest treasure?!
I'm going to settle this with McQueen later!
"Hmm, about that, of course I..."
Zhou Yuang was about to answer, but the next second, the scenery before him gradually turned white. Then he felt as though he had exited the story, and a pop-up appeared.
[Error: a critical bug has been detected. Attempting reformatting and repairs. Please exit and reenter!]
Below that line, there was only a single "Confirm" button.
Before Zhou Yuang could confirm, the pop-up disappeared on its own.
What greeted him was the mobile game's home lobby. Bourbon, whom he had casually set as his home-screen girl before training, stood there, smiling at him.
"The Milky Way... if my instructor were waiting on the opposite bank, I would surely swim across that river."
Bourbon stood there quietly, reciting a line that had long since been programmed into the game.
