Restarting life, starting from bullying Pochi-chan

The beast-eared girl raised her little face and spoke in a tone that was less than precise:

"Master, so rough..."

I just tapped you lightly. I didn't use any force at all!

The beast-eared girl tilted her head and thought:

"Master, domestic violence..."

That's enough! There are already passers-by looking at me with strange eyes!

Kitahara Makoto's face darkened slightly, and he lowered his voice and said:

"Stop talking. Go and exchange the cookies first. I'll buy you two cakes later."

The beast-eared girl raised her little face:

"Five."

Good man, you can bargain now, right?

Kitahara Makoto reluctantly agreed: "Five is five, go and exchange for cookies quickly."

Rewards negotiated.

The girl with animal ears picked up the cake, spread her short legs, and ran towards the little Loli with bob haircut not far away.

Kitahara Makoto stood in the distance, watching secretly, but the distance was a bit far and he couldn't hear clearly what the two little kids were saying.

However, after a while, the two little kids started fighting over the cookie box.

Kitahara Makoto couldn't sit still anymore, so he walked over to see what was going on.

"Xiaohua, what are you doing?" Kitahara Makoto stepped forward, walked to the two of them, reached out and rubbed the little head of the animal-eared girl, and then said with a serious expression, "Don't steal other people's things."

After teaching the beast-eared girl a lesson, Kitahara Makoto looked at the pink-haired little Lolita and said softly:

"I'm sorry, my sister has caused you trouble. I'll teach her a lesson when I get back."

The pink-haired little girl looked up, her eyes were big and round, as blue as the sky, and she was obviously not afraid of strangers: "Onii-chan, don't be angry with Hua-chan, Hua-chan didn't steal Erli's cookies."

"Two miles?"

Kitahara Makoto's heart moved slightly, and the previous sense of familiarity became stronger.

Pink hair, blue eyes, silly hair on top of her head, she's just in elementary school, and her name is Erli... Could she be Pochi-chan's sister?

"What's your name?" Kitahara Makoto asked curiously.

"Eri, my name is Goto Erri."

The little carrot head's voice was soft and tender. Perhaps because the animal-eared girl was around, he was not wary of Kitahara Makoto at all.

verified.

As expected, she is Pochi-chan’s sister.

I didn’t expect to meet Pochi’s sister when I went out to eat. Japan Island is indeed a very small place.

Kitahara Makoto looked around and didn't see Pochi-chan, so he asked curiously:

"You're going out alone? The adults will be worried, right?"

"No." Goto Erli sighed like a little adult, "Erli said that she went out with her sister, but her sister got lost."

Kitahara Makoto: “…”

No matter how you look at it, you are the one who is lost!

After careful questioning, Kitahara Makoto quickly figured out the situation.

The little carrot head in front of him was indeed going out with Pochi-chan. Their target was the convenience store next door, but not long after they entered, Pochi-chan suddenly disappeared, so Erli chose to "wait and see" and waited at the door, waiting for Pochi-chan to "fall into the trap".

As for the fight between the two little lolis just now, it was not what we saw. Although Goto Jiri was small, she was quite generous, and unlike the super socially anxious Pochi-chan, she was obviously very outgoing.

After the animal-eared girl explained her purpose, Goto Jiri said that she wanted to share the cookies with Xiaohua, but the animal-eared girl obeyed the order and was only willing to exchange. From a distance, it seemed as if a fight was happening.

Once you figure out the situation, the rest will be easy.

"Erli, can I discuss something with you?"

Kitahara Makoto asked gently.

“Onii-chan, you say.” Goto Jiri raised her little face and said in a soft voice, “But you can’t let Jiri and Onii-chan go home.”

Don't worry, I'm only interested in your sister. I don't want to bring a little rascal like you home!

Kitahara Makoto said without changing his expression:

"It's like this, Xiaohua is usually spoiled, she has to get what she wants, otherwise she will roll around on the ground... I'll buy you a small cake, can Erli give Xiaohua the box of cookies?"

Kitahara Makoto has no psychological burden at all in throwing the blame on the beast-eared girl.

As a mount, it cannot be ridden, so its only remaining use is to carry the blame.

"Okay~"

Goto Jiri was quite easy to talk to and simply agreed.

"Thank you, Erli." Kitahara Makoto relaxed and smiled, "Erli, what flavor of cake do you want? Feel free to choose. I'll pay for it."

Little Radish Head was not picky and quickly chose a very nice little cream cake.

Kitahara Makoto bought the small cake and successfully exchanged it for the box of cookies in Goto Jiri's arms.

[You have obtained an optimizable item, do you want to optimize it now? ]

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Kitahara Makoto put the biscuits away. Since he had already got the things, there was no need to rush.

"Eri, your sister is still in the convenience store, right?" Kitahara Makoto looked around and still didn't see Bochi-chan, so he said, "You and Xiaohua just eat cake at the door, don't move, I'll go in to find your sister."

We kissed impulsively last night. Given my socially anxious personality, I don’t know how long I will have to hide from him.

But now...

"Ichiri-san, you don't want your sister to get lost, do you?"

Chapter 101 Goto Ichiri: Kitahara-san is a brave man!

After settling the two little lolis, Kitahara Makoto turned and walked into the convenience store.

It was just seven o'clock in the evening, and the supermarket was busiest. When Kitahara Makoto came in, he immediately looked at the long line in front of the checkout counter:

"Will Pochi-chan be in the checkout line?"

Snapped.

Kitahara Makoto slapped his forehead lightly.

"You're overthinking it. With Pochi-chan's super social phobia, asking her to queue up with so many people is even more painful than killing her..."

Kitahara Makoto looked around and began to search for dark corners that ordinary guests would not go to.

Pochi-chan has a special ability, which is that when there are many people around, she can instinctively find a dark corner where no one pays attention and then hide in it. The convenience store is now crowded, and if you want to find a place where you can quickly find the little socially anxious person, it is obviously a dark corner with no one.

It turned out that Kitahara Makoto's idea was not wrong at all.

As he specifically looked for dark corners, after a while, a silly-haired girl hiding behind a pillar in the corner came into view. She exuded a dark aura, was wearing her signature pink sportswear, and had a yellow and blue hairpin.

Who else could it be if not Pochi-chan?

"found it."

Kitahara Makoto's eyes lit up and he stepped forward from behind.

After getting closer, I soon heard Pochi-chan's mumbling like her inner voice:

"How terrible! How terrible! How terrible!"

"I didn't expect there would be so many people in a convenience store at 7 o'clock in the evening. I seemed to see the hell described in Dante's Divine Comedy..."

“Convenience stores are hell!”

"I really want to go back to my mother's belly. The world outside is so scary..."

As if he sensed the approach of a stranger, Goto Ichiri shrank his neck and was about to slip away quietly, continuing to look for a new dark corner to hide.

Kitahara Makoto quickly stretched out his right hand and shouted:

"Ichiri-san, don't leave yet."

"..."

Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Goto Ichiri's body suddenly froze. He turned his head subconsciously, and when he saw Kitahara Makoto, a hint of surprise flashed across his little face. Then his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he was about to run away in a panic.

Having just kissed him yesterday, the girl's sense of shame has not cooled at all. Now she has no idea how to face Kitahara Makoto, and her first thought is to run away.

"Wait." Kitahara Makoto shouted hurriedly, "You don't want your sister to get lost, do you?"

Goto Ichiri's footsteps, which were raised in the air, suddenly stopped:

"Two, two miles?"

Kitahara Makoto seized the opportunity, walked quickly to the side of the socially anxious kid, and stopped one meter away, so as not to scare away the frightened Pochi-chan. He raised his hands and said softly:

"I brought Xiaohua to the commercial street for dinner. I saw a little girl with short pink bob hair at the entrance of a convenience store. She looked familiar and asked her name. The little girl said her name was Erli... Is she Yili's sister?"

Goto Ichiri nodded subconsciously.

"Then you can rest assured." Kitahara Makoto said gently, "I'll let Xiaohua take care of Erli."

"call……"

Goto Ichiri breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at Kitahara Makoto nervously, and then quickly lowered his head.

"That does not work."

Kitahara Makoto pressed his brows and began to think of a solution.

Although the socially anxious kid didn't run away, his whole body was tense and it was impossible for him to have a normal conversation.

"Got it." Kitahara Makoto's eyes lit up, he took out his cell phone and suggested, "Ichiri-san, let's communicate on the cell phone from now on?"

"Eh?"

Kitahara Makoto's way of retreating to advance:

"I know that Ichiri must be really annoyed with me right now, so why don't we lean against this pillar and talk on our phones?"

(I don’t hate it…)

Goto Ichiri opened her pink lips and wanted to deny it, but unfortunately the words couldn't come out.

Kitahara Makoto turned around, leaned his back against the pillar, and sent the photo he had just taken to Goto Ichiri:

"Just in case, let me confirm again, is this child in the photo your sister?"

Goto Ichiri quietly raised his head and saw Kitahara Makoto leaning against a pillar. He covered his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, then leaned to the other side of the pillar, blushing as he took out his cell phone.

"Ah... yes, it is Erli. I have been looking for him for a long time but couldn't find him."

Kitahara Makoto: "I was wondering why you looked so friendly... But Erli said that you were lost, and he was worried that you would miss each other if you kept looking for each other, so he chose to wait for you at the entrance of the supermarket and wait for you to come out."

Goto Ichiri: "I, I wasn't lost... I saw a very scary existence, so I hid out of fear, and then I disappeared..."

Kitahara Makoto: "Could it be an evil spirit?"

Goto Ichiri: "It's not an evil spirit, it's my former junior high school teacher. He was always very strict in class..."

"..."

It turned out to be the case.

What do people with social phobia fear most in daily life?

What I fear most is meeting acquaintances.

He was a teacher in junior high school with a strict personality, and they met by chance in a convenience store...his buffs were stacked up. In Goto Ichiri's eyes, he was definitely a monster. The first time the radar detected him, he would definitely take a detour to avoid him as far away as possible.

Kitahara Makoto: "Don't worry about Erli, she's playing outside with Xiaohua, I asked Xiaohua to protect her. Why would Ichiri come to the convenience store when there are so many people around?"
