After deciding to give up, he started to gain popularity

154. Could it be that I am also part of your play?

Kaguya has a slim figure and is very light. Although she is called the Ice Queen, she still feels soft and sticky when you hug her. Even her breath feels warm and seems to have a unique fragrance...

"Sorry, the situation is urgent..." Xiachuan Kanade said awkwardly.

He was a little ashamed.

There was a ghost behind them chasing them madly and the atmosphere was so tense, but he still had the mind to pay attention to other things. It was just like a guy who was paying attention to the text message sent by his girlfriend when the promotion match had already started!

Pay more attention to your teammates' status! Don't just think about your own second brother!

But he couldn't control himself. He tried his best to hold Kaguya as far away as possible, but his arms were so long, and if he stretched them any further he wouldn't be able to use any strength.

Well, I can only say that he is still a little bit not calm enough.

Just now, he clearly shouldn't have been so anxious to pick up Kaguya. It would have been better to carry her on his back.

As a result, not only did Kaguya get so angry that she glared at him with cold eyes, but he even didn't know how to push open the doors of other rooms later.

"Kaguya, the door..."

Seeing that they were about to reach the door of the first room, Xiachuan Zou had to remind the girl in his arms that he was going to put her down first. By the way, he had already thought about putting Kaguya on his back and running away immediately after sticking his head out to observe.

But what happened was that before he could even finish his words, the girl took the initiative to stretch out her hand, and when he approached the door, she pushed it open with force.

"No one, next room." The girl urged, then turned around and stared at him again with cold eyes, as if to say, "I'm watching you, be careful and don't do anything small."

"..."

Then why don't you just come down and let him change the way he carries people on his back! Xia Chuan Zou was very embarrassed.

But if you ask him to bring it up himself, he wouldn't dare to do so - something similar has happened to him before, where he suggested changing the way of hugging someone to carrying them on the back because he was worried that things might get too intimate, but he was severely ridiculed by senior Kasumigaoka.

Not only did she mock him for his weak physical strength, she also plausibly said that he was just complaining about her being too heavy and was throwing a tantrum...

Don't you know whether it's important or not? If he hadn't started training at that time, he might not have been able to hold you up!

Even though Kaguya and Kasumigaoka-senpai have completely different personalities, and given their current relationship she probably wouldn't use that kind of choking tone towards him, but just by taking a quick look at Kaguya's expression at the moment, it's entirely possible that she would push him to the ground and severely humiliate him the next moment.

Maybe she tolerated his rude behavior just because of our past friendship, but in fact, she was already furious with his actions.

I trusted you so much, and you did this to me? That's terrible!

Would he dare to ask for a change of position? He would be scolded as a frivolous scumbag on the spot, so he could only hold her, and even as long as the other party didn't say anything, he would keep this position.

Fortunately, this torturous process did not last long. When they reached the seventh room, which happened to be the room to the right of where the "butcher" originally stood, they found the target hiding inside - a girl dressed as a ghost with a black halo on her head.

The other person was sitting in a chair, yawning and scrolling through his phone out of boredom.

When she saw the two of them, she was stunned for a moment, then she reacted immediately, put away her phone, put on a serious face and was about to speak:

"I used to be..."

"Skip the plot." Xiachuan Kanade interrupted her immediately and handed her the card paper, "Stamp it."

He had prepared it in his hand a long time ago, but it was now wrinkled due to all the running around.

“……”The girl seemed a little embarrassed.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that the other party wants to skip the plot... Well, it’s a bit unpleasant that she can’t satisfy her desire to talk, but the most important thing is that she recognizes the two people in front.

One is the student union president and the other is the vice president. Now they are suspected of playing a very advanced game. Logically, she should just obey and say nothing and stamp her name. She should even pretend that she has never seen them. But she is a very professional person. She doesn't like gossiping or taking backdoors...

"Oh yes, that one still needs to be given to you..." Xiachuan Zou thought about it and felt that he seemed to have a key prop that he had not taken out yet.

But the current posture...

"Uh, Kaguya, can you please help me get the prop? It's in my shirt pocket..."

I said this to Kaguya Shinomiya.

Maybe it was because they were in front of outsiders, although Kaguya obviously looked very reluctant and even paused for a long time, and finally stared at him for a long time with eyes as if she was looking at a maggot, she still gave him enough face and finally slowly stretched out her right hand to pick his pocket.

I don't know if it was because of her bad posture, but she couldn't find the prop called "token of love" for a long time. It was only after Xiachuan Zou reminded her to move down a little that she finally stopped ravaging his chest muscles...

"You want this, right?" Xia Chuan Zou gestured.

Kaguya Shinomiya also handed over the props she had just received at a very timely manner.

"...Ah...mm..." The ghost girl suppressed her impulse and nodded stiffly.

She really didn't dare to say another word, for fear that she would ask some strange questions out of curiosity.

Things like "President, what new play are you guys trying?" "Can I take a picture as a souvenir?"... I really can't even imagine questions like that!

"Thank you, you brave ones..." After taking back the props, the ghost girl wanted to show her presence for the last time, but she was interrupted again.

"Let's skip the plot for now, we're running out of time." Xia Chuan Zou interrupted quickly, "Stamp us first, I'm afraid it won't count once the time is up."

“……”The ghost girl had no choice but to do as she was told.

But she had already thought it through. She was going to tell the background story again after stamping it, so that she wouldn't be bored to death here. But as soon as she stamped it, a pretty little hand reached out and took the cardboard away at the speed of light.

She was stunned for only a moment, but when she looked up again, she found that the two men were almost at the door.

"..."

So she finally became part of their play?

But I'm so angry! She obviously didn't feel involved at all!

155. She is so real, I cry to death

Almost as I walked out of the room, I heard a crisp bell ringing throughout the house, indicating the end of the game time.

Then the person playing the old woman appeared in front of them, and stretched out her hand to them, saying, "We need to recycle the props."

The sound that came was no longer as hoarse as before, but very clear and pleasant, and even gave Xia Chuanzo a vaguely familiar feeling.

But he didn't think much about it. After all, now was not the time to reminisce about the past. He was still holding another girl in his arms... That's right! It's time to let her go! The game was over and he didn't need to run away, so why was he still holding on to her?

After figuring this out, Natsukawa Kanade put Shinomiya Kaguya down very tactfully. But when he wanted to stand up again, he suddenly found that Kaguya's hand was tightly grasping his collar.

"Kaguya, hands..." Natsukawa Kanade reminded her softly.

The other party seemed to be in a daze and ignored him for a long time. It was not until he couldn't help but remind him for the second time that he came back to his senses as if he suddenly realized something.

"Ah? Oh..."

"..."

Natsukawa Kanade felt that she looked strange.

It would be fine if she just looked dazed, she could explain what she was thinking about, but the injured part was clearly on her foot, but Kaguya kept covering her right cheek with her left hand, as if that was the part of her injury that needed to be covered up.

He really didn't understand, but he could only respect her idea.

And now it’s the other side that matters.

"……for you."

Natsukawa Kanade turned his head and looked at the staff member, then handed over all the props he had received.

"That's all... Oh, by the way, I didn't take back the 'token of love' item after I gave it to the person in the room. You have to ask her for it." Xiachuan Zou added.

"Okay, I understand. You don't have to worry about this." The voice coming from the girl was very cold. On the contrary, she gave people a much gentler feeling when she was playing the role just now.

"..."

So did he offend the other party in some way?

"Congratulations on successfully clearing the level. Congratulations - this is the extra reward you got for clearing the level. Please accept it~"

It's obviously in the same tone as reading aloud, and it feels very perfunctory.

"..." Xiachuan Zou took it and looked at it, and found that it was a pair of very exquisitely made doll pendants, and they seemed to be the rabbit head style that was very popular in the recent emoticon package.

I remember the name seemed to be Usagi?

Natsukawa Kanade had seen it before, and even had seen a package of amazing emoticons based on it, all of which were sent to him by Ishigami. He only had one comment on it: Ishigami, even if no girls like you anymore, you don’t have to be so hungry that boys would think it’s okay…

Although he listened to his detailed explanation later, his impression of this rabbit head was fixed as “probably not a real rabbit”.

Unexpectedly, I saw it again today, and even received a piece of this rabbit's peripherals from a girl as a prize...

Could it be that the other person is actually a fujoshi who likes to ship him as a couple? Is she disappointed to see that his partner is a girl like Kaguya?

The more Natsukawa Kanade thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. After all, there were people who did this in daily life. Some had even drawn books of him and other male members of the student union. He had only taken a look at it at the time and was so moved that he had to avoid Ishigami and the others for several days.

Otherwise, there is no other reason to explain why the other party's attitude towards him is so bad? Maybe... she is the culprit who drew his book before!

After all, it was dark now and the other person was wearing such heavy makeup, it was normal that he couldn't see it at first glance.

After thinking about this, Xia Chuanzou subconsciously took two steps back and stared at the other party as if facing a great enemy, fearing that she would give him another trick.

"Thank you, we'll go now." Despite maintaining a sufficient safe distance, Natsukawa Kanade still felt it was not safe, so he simply pulled up Shinomiya Kaguya who was still standing there in a daze and prepared to retreat.

It's not that he was afraid of the other person, but when he thought about it, his mind would involuntarily recall the glance he accidentally took at that time, and it gave him a headache.

What's more, he now has Kaguya, who is as white as paper, by his side. He really doesn't want such a pure girl to be polluted by such an indecent guy.

"..." The fujoshi classmate raised her eyebrows obviously, but didn't do anything afterwards. She just seemed to glance at Kaguya and then turned and left.

Seeing this, Natsukawa Kanade breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Shinomiya Kaguya beside him.

"I forgot to ask just now, Kaguya, is your foot feeling better?"

"Yes, thank you for your concern, President. It seems that I have become a little better because of my training just now..." Shinomiya Kaguya answered him expressionlessly.

"..."

Xiachuan Zou felt that the other party was indeed angry, and even his tone began to become distant.

But after thinking for a long time, I still didn't know how to make it up to her, so I had to whisper to her again: "Sorry..."

"Why does the president want to apologize?"

"Eh?" Xia Chuan Zou was stunned. He never expected her to ask that.

"That... because just now... I picked you up without your consent..."

"That's not something that needs to be apologized for, right?" Shinomiya Kaguya tilted her head towards him, looking a little confused. "It's better to say that the president made the most correct decision. If not, we might not be able to pass the level within the stipulated time."

"After all, I can't drag my injured leg with me to accompany the president for the rest of the journey."

"That's what you said..." Xiachuan Zou was confused.

He originally really thought that the other party was angry about this matter, but why is Kaguya now explaining it for him?

He himself hasn't said anything yet!

Hmm... Could it be that because she cared too much, she subconsciously found an acceptable reason for herself?

Natsukawa Kanade felt that she had discovered the truth. After all, Kaguya was essentially a very arrogant person. Normally, it was extremely difficult for her to get close to her and say a few words, let alone have any intimate interactions with others. And she had no experience in dealing with his unconventional behavior. Plus, the relationship between the two of them... should be friends, right?

This led to her reaction - she was obviously very angry at his frivolous behavior, but because it was indeed a good way to solve the problem, and because the target was a friend, she could not blame him too much, so she could only secretly sulk by herself, and even after the incident, she had to comfort him, the culprit of the frivolous behavior...

This... isn't Kaguya too gentle? He himself was almost moved to tears.

156. Compared to carrying someone on your back, I still prefer hugging them.

"The wound is a little red, but if you don't feel any pain, it shouldn't be a big problem. You can walk, but you definitely can't do strenuous exercise," Xiachuan Zou analyzed.
