The heroines want to talk

Lan touched her head and said, "Maybe she is waiting for someone. Don't let Master Zi wait too long. Let's go find her."

"Okay! Sister Blue!" The two tails behind Orange kept wagging, and his face was full of anticipation.

After they left, another group of ghosts passed by nearby. Ying Lili could see the long horns on their heads. The leader was holding a large wine tray and walking unsteadily, as if he was drunk.

The wind was strong in the mountains at night. Eriri wrapped her yukata tightly around her and whispered, "Where the hell are you, you idiot?"

"Da da."

There were footsteps.

A soft voice came.

"Miss, you seem to be missing someone?"

A figure appeared in front of her.

Eriri slowly raised her head.

A gorgeous black haori with a cherry blossom pattern printed on it came into view. The man had an outstanding figure, and even though he had a white fox mask on his face, it did not prevent the girls passing by from looking at him.

A gentle voice sounded.

"I'm Awakening Youkai, nice to meet you."

"Tonight's festival is very lively." The man opened the folding fan in his hand, and four Chinese characters "Insight into the Heart" were written on the white fan.

"Although I don't know who the other person is, he must be a heartless person to leave a beautiful girl like you alone."

"So, my lovely lady, can you please forget about that person?"

He said gently, "How about joining me in the festival?"

Eriri gave a forced smile, "It's okay, just leave me alone."

It's not him. Although his body shape is similar, his tone of voice and hairstyle don't match.

"Then let me sit with you for a while."

The man sat down next to Eriri. He looked at the starry sky and said with emotion: "I once met a human woman who was not frank enough. Although I say once, it was actually only two days ago."

"She is very shy and cute, and her duplicity is also very endearing."

"I'm missing her right now."

"Sawamura-kun."

Xia Shi turned his head and looked at her face. "Could it be me that you are missing now?"

Hearing this, Eriri turned around and saw a familiar face.

The next moment, she couldn't help but shed tears.

Xia Shi lifted the fox mask, wiped away the tears from her eyes with his hands, and chuckled, "Sawamura-san, long time no see. It's been about two centuries."

"The yukata is very pretty. The green and white color combination reminds me of my favorite fruit..."

Xia Shi's words were interrupted.

A petite and adorable cat girl jumped into his arms.

There were sobs in my arms.

Xia Shi stroked her head and held her quietly.

I don’t know how long it took.

The girl in her arms finally stopped crying. Eriri loosened her arms, wiped her eyes, and said, "I hugged you just now because I was too scared..."

[The target Sawamura Spencer Eriri's favorability has reached 85 points! ]

Xia Shi felt his chest, which was already wet. "Sawamura-kun is also very cute when he lies."

He stood up, smiled at Eriri and held out his hand to her.

"Today's festival has just begun. Please come with me for a stroll."

"Ah."

Eriri placed her hand on his palm.

----

Holding Eriri's hand, they walked on the festival avenue. This road built along the mountain was very straight. Perhaps it was because the ghosts didn't like twists and turns, so they tried to keep the road as straight as possible even when they were building it.

[Reminder: The monster aura on the host has been replenished. The monsters will not be able to detect it in the next half hour.]

Just now he was thinking about how to increase his invincibility time, but he didn't expect Eriri to pounce on him.

'I should have known better. I was stupid. I really was.'

He has discovered that this dog system will not let him have an easy time.

He was only provided with the aura of the monster for twenty minutes, after which he would be discovered. If a human was discovered at a ceremony held by the Ghost King, the consequences would naturally be disastrous.

Fortunately, I found Eriri who was in the state of transformation.

Xia Shi looked around. They had not yet reached the mountainside. "Is there anything Sawamura-kun would like to eat?"

"Octopus balls? Candy apples? Bunny people's rice cakes?"

The dog system provided him with sufficient funds. The ghost tribe used old-fashioned paper money as currency, which was different from modern ones.

I noticed that Eriri's eyes were fixed on a certain place.

Xia Shi pulled her over and said to the people in the shop, "Beautiful lady, please give me an apple candy."

He probed, "I didn't expect that Tengu would come out to sell candy now."

The female Tengu gave him the candy and sighed, "There's nothing I can do. There's no big news right now, so as a reporter I have no choice but to sell candy for a living."

Chapter 28: Strategy in Progress

"That's really, so tragic. A news writer can't catch the big news. Miss, you must be very upset, right?"

Natsumi took the candy and handed it to Eriri.

Eriri looked at Natsumi curiously. Why could he fit in here so quickly? Was he really a monster?

Perhaps he also created such a dream, but what was his purpose?

"Hey."

The candy-selling Tengu shop owner sighed, "What can I do if there is no news? Although I am confident in my speed, I can't find something that doesn't exist in the first place."

Xia Shi touched his chin, "Why don't you make it yourself, Miss?"

The Tengu girl asked in confusion: "Production?"

Xia Shi casually said, "It means to infinitely expand the things that catch the wind and catch the shadows to attract everyone's attention."

He gave an example, "For example, someone who is generally recognized as a fool is actually a genius, or put it another way."

"Shocking! A fool becomes a genius in this way! Of course, this is just a simple example, beautiful Miss Tengu, you can think of something more attractive."

"Is there such a way?"

Tengu was so excited that her wings were trembling. Her eyes seemed to be shining. "Brother, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading! I am Reimu Marufumi. What's your name? What kind of monster are you?"

Xia Shi sighed, "I am a foreign monster, and I haven't seen such a harmonious place for a long time."

Yumemimaru walked up to him and patted his shoulder. "The living environment outside is indeed very difficult, but you don't have to be afraid once you enter the barrier. No one dares to mess around here."

"Enchantment?"

Wenwen asked strangely, "How did you get in, little brother?"

But when she thought that the barrier had just been established and there might be loopholes, she didn't think much about it.

"Let's not talk about that for now. Tell me more about journalism skills, little brother." Wenwen hooked his shoulder, "By the way, little brother, you haven't told me the name and the monster species yet!"

Xia Shi thought for a few seconds, thinking about the information he had read before, and replied: "I am a youkai of awakening. I can read the thoughts of people around me, but in order to avoid trouble, I only selectively receive some information now."

"Where's the name?"

"Xia Shi is my name from the outside world. I took this name when I was exiled among humans. Now I am too lazy to change it because it is a habit."

He didn't know whether what he had made up was OK, but judging from the expression of this Tengu, it should be OK?

Wenwen nodded and repeated, "Xia Shi? It's a little hard to pronounce."

She looked at Eriri, who was huddled next to Xia Shi and eating candy, and asked in confusion, "Is this the brother's partner?"

"That's not..." Ying Lili was about to refute, but Xia Shi stopped her.

He nodded and said, "Yes, I met him when we were in exile together. He is a child of the cat demon tribe."

"The race is orange cat."

Eriri glared at him and asked who is the orange cat! !

Reimu Maru Bun was a little confused. Does this race exist?

She does know a cat.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Brother, please say something more." Wenwen ran to the store and took out a notebook.

Then she looked at him seriously.

"Ms. Tengu, is your shop closed?"

Shemingwan said carelessly: "How much money can be made from selling candy? It must be important news!"

Xia Shi was a little helpless. He originally just wanted to ask some questions, but this monster lady didn't seem to want to let him run away.

Let me tell you another one.

Isn't it just hype? He is so familiar with it.

Black Cat Phosphorus is creating hype every day, and even his debut live broadcast became popular by doing some funny things.

He still remembers the title of the most popular slice at that time -

"Shocked, a certain virtual anchor actually revealed it during the first broadcast...!"

Xia Shi slowly told his own experience, "The one just now is called the shocking news production method. Now I will tell you another one, called the gossip hype method."

"You can take two people who would never have been a couple and put them on the news and make a big fuss about it!"

"Do you think a noble general could really fall in love with a poor girl? This kind of contrast is what everyone likes most."

Wenwen recorded it carefully.

Why haven't I thought of pairing two people who can't possibly be together before?

But which one is better?

She thought for a moment, looked at Xia Shi, and said in surprise: "Brother, can you let me take a picture?"

"Just consider it as a commemoration of our meeting!"

Xia Shi nodded. It was just an illusion anyway, just taking a picture.

Reimu Marufumi picked up the camera and took a picture of him.

She felt ecstatic again.

Shocked! A wandering monster from outside is actually having an affair with Ibuki Suika, one of the four great demon kings.

And that wandering monster actually has a girlfriend!

Wenwen's legs were shaking with excitement. It was so great! It was so great!

This has to be the biggest news she’s ever dealt with!

Seeing her blushing face, Xia Shi took Eriri away and said, "Um, Ms. Yumeimaru Fumi, can I take my girlfriend out to play first?"

Miss Tengu put away her camera and said, "Don't be so distant. Just call me Wenwen. Brother, you have helped me so much. Come to Youkai Mountain to find me next time. I can help you."

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually quite strong."

Really? Xia Shi was a little bit unconvinced, but when he thought about the fact that the other party was a monster, he began to believe it a little. However, it was strange that Tengu could be a reporter.

Wenwen's wings stirred up a breeze, and she gradually broke free from the ground. She waved goodbye and said, "Have fun, little brother and girlfriend! I'm going back to make news. See you next time!"
