“Even if you flatter me, I will still make conditions,” she said, but Yukino Fuyuki’s smile was bright. It was clear that she was very happy. Who doesn’t like to hear nice things? “Mr. Mu Xiaoxiao, you said yourself that you can agree to any conditions.”
"Anything that's not too outrageous is fine," Mu Xiaoxiao said generously.
"What would be considered not outrageous? Does wanting to get revenge on you count?"
Faced with Yukino Fuyuki's teasing gaze, Mu Xiaoxiao asked in surprise, "Revenge against me? That can't be your real thought, can it?"
"No, this is what I really think. You did such a terrible thing to me, so isn't it only right to get revenge?" Yukino Fuyuki raised the corners of her mouth. This little rascal's calm expression, as if he had everything under control, was really annoying. So seeing his surprised expression made Yukino Fuyuki very happy.
"Mr. Mu Xiaoxiao, are you scared?" she chuckled.
"what ever."
“Then it’s settled,” Yukino Fuyumi licked her red lips, a strange light flashing in her eyes. “Mr. Mu Xiaoxiao, you’ve admitted it yourself, so don’t go back on your word later.”
Wait, the kind of revenge you're talking about, isn't it?
When Mu Xiaoxiao left the apartment, a beautiful woman followed him. Yukino Fuyuki was dressed appropriately, and her mature and elegant temperament made her charm comparable to Miss Mira. However, at this moment, she was like a secretary, following him closely.
Along the way, everyone's eyes were drawn to the beautiful Snow Maiden, and their gazes toward Mu Xiaoxiao were filled with envy and jealousy.
The two arrived at the Tohsaka family's door and rang the doorbell.
"Here, who is it?"
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled at the butler who opened the door, "We're here to see Mr. Tohsaka. Is he home?"
After exchanging a few more words, the two entered the Tohsaka residence without incident and disappeared. Touka, wearing a bamboo dragonfly on her head, slowly flew over. "Is Xiaoxiao planning to formally visit his father? Oh, that's fine. But the woman next to him is so beautiful. She must be the helper he was talking about."
Just as Touka Tohsaka was about to fly in to eavesdrop, she suddenly felt her communication card glowing. She quickly took it out and, sensing the unusual nature of the item, her face lit up with joy. "This is... the future has changed?"
Inside the Tohsaka residence, Mu Xiaoxiao was unaware of Touka's excitement. He and Miss Yuki were sitting at a low table in the living room, opposite Tohsaka's father. Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at him and thought he was indeed a nice person.
"My name is Mu Xiaoxiao, hello Mr. Tohsaka."
"do we know each other?"
The head of the Tohsaka family felt that the boy was looking at him strangely, so he couldn't help but ask.
“This is our first meeting, Mr. Tohsaka,” Mu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, “but I’ve heard of Mr. Tohsaka before; he’s said to be a very nice person.”
"Where do you have something you need my help with?"
"On the contrary, we're here to help Mr. Tohsaka," Mu Xiaoxiao said, getting straight to the point and smiling at the man's surprised expression. "Haven't you noticed that there have been some suspicious people loitering around your house these past few days, Mr. Tohsaka?"
Judging from his astonished expression, you could tell he really didn't know.
Yukino Fuyuki gave Mu Xiaoxiao a strange look. "Speaking of sneaky, I think you're pretty sneaky too."
"I find it hard to believe this kind of thing based solely on your word."
"Mr. Tohsaka, it's enough for you to know. Whether you believe it or not, I think you'll be more vigilant, won't you?" Whether it's an accidental car accident or a deliberate conspiracy, knowing in advance will reduce the danger and allow it to be avoided.
After all, as the head of the Tohsaka family, he was no useless person.
Upon hearing this, the man became somewhat more convinced of his story. However, more than the schemes, he was curious, "Why did you specifically remind me? If you don't know me, why are you helping me?"
Mu Xiaoxiao blinked, then suddenly sighed wistfully, "I guess she just doesn't want to see a certain girl cry anymore."
Although it was also for the wish list, he knew that he didn't want to see Touka cry even more.
Having just transmigrated to this world, all I could think about was fulfilling my wish list and becoming stronger; nothing else mattered. But unknowingly, I had already formed a deep bond with them, and my thoughts had changed.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt a little sad.
"By the way, Mr. Tohsaka, if you really encounter a problem that is difficult to solve, you can seek help from Tsubakihara Mira. You can try mentioning my name. I don't know if it will work, but you can give it a try."
After saying that, Mu Xiaoxiao left with Yukino Fuyuki, leaving the head of the Tohsaka family still sitting there in deep thought. After a long while, he returned to his room, feeling uneasy, and made a phone call.
The mysterious boy was right. Whether you believe it or not, at least he has become wary.
But after investigating for the past two days, he found nothing. It all seemed to be just that person's nonsense. This should have been good news, but for some reason, he felt uneasy and worried. Seeing his furrowed brows, the driver in front couldn't help but say something.
"Mr. Tohsaka, I don't think anything dangerous will happen. Maybe it's just a prank."
"A prank..."
Just as he was about to answer, his pupils contracted. A large truck roared towards him from directly in front of him, arriving in the blink of an eye. A chill ran down his spine; "Watch out—"
The driver suddenly slammed on the brakes.
boom!
Almost everyone in the car thought they were going to die, but when they opened their eyes, they saw a shocking scene of crashing into the roadside railing and slamming into the wall of a building. As for them, apart from hitting their heads, they were not injured.
The people around were also frightened and screamed as they scattered and ran away.
"Mr. Tohsaka, this..."
The driver was terrified.
Outside, Mu Xiaoxiao put away the reflective cloak and once again marveled at its power, "Don't even mention big trucks, it can even block a train engine for you."
Just moments ago, he used his Reflective Cloak to flip the oncoming truck, but Mu Xiaoxiao felt no relief at all, because he had already discovered that the truck had been waiting by the roadside for a long time, just waiting for that moment.
Boom!
Mu Xiaoxiao quickly raised her reflective cloak and looked in the direction from which the bullets came. Was she no longer going to put on an act?
“Xiao Xiao!!”
Hearing the gunshot, the people around ran even faster. Dongxiang rushed to her lover's side, worried that he was in danger, and groped the boy haphazardly, asking, "Are you alright?"
"It's alright, I knew we'd encounter this kind of unexpected situation, I was prepared. Where's the Snow Woman?"
“Miss Yukino is over there,” Touka Tohsaka breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the gunfire suddenly stop. “Miss Yukino must have taken care of her. I wonder if we can find out who is targeting the Tohsaka family.”
“I left Miss Yuki-onna alive, and your father can investigate her later,” Mu Xiaoxiao said, feeling that he was no longer needed. He looked at the girl’s wish list, and not only was the wish list completed, but the communication card also responded.
Mu Xiaoxiao knew that this should be considered a successful change of history.
Touka's father, who should have died in the car accident today, is now sitting in the car, still in shock, and has survived. The attackers nearby have also been captured by the Snow Woman.
Everything was resolved perfectly, but...
"Dong Xiang?"
For some reason, Touka Tohsaka's expression was somewhat pale. She sensed something was wrong with her; a lot of her memories were fading, especially those about Mu Xiaoxiao.
"no, do not want!"
The girl covered her head in terror and rushed towards Mu Xiaoxiao. How could this happen? She absolutely mustn't forget about Xiaoxiao!
brush----
She missed her target. When the girl opened her eyes again, she found herself standing in the school's club building, surrounded by noise and the sounds of students talking.
She maintained the gesture of reaching out, but in front of her was a girl dressed in a kendo uniform.
"Tohsaka-senpai? What's wrong?"
"Eh?"
Touka Tohsaka paused, looked down at her kendo uniform, then at the girls in the kendo club around her. A flicker of confusion crossed her eyes, and she shook her head. "It's nothing, I was just a little distracted. Hasn't Sakura arrived yet?"
"It seems the minister has to do his duty, so it might not be so quick. Tohsaka-senpai, let me practice with you."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
Tohsaka Touka smiled, but her gaze inadvertently drifted to the window, where a small black cat was crouching on the ground, seemingly waiting for something. Tohsaka Touka suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.
It seems like something is missing.
Chapter 48 The Flawless Tohsaka-senpai
[Wishlist (Touka Tohsaka) Completed]
[Completion A, Reward: Lottery Coins +4]
Mu Xiaoxiao didn't pay attention to the wish list on the system, but instead frowned and stared at the spot in front of her.
Tohsaka Touka disappeared.
No, she should have gone back. He watched as Touka's father left unharmed, remaining motionless for a long time, frowning in thought. Even now, the image of Touka rushing towards him was still vivid in his mind.
What did she discover?
Pale, anxious, fear and other emotions could be seen in her eyes. Wait, could it be some kind of butterfly effect caused by changing the past and altering history?
"Hey, Mu Xiaoxiao, what are you daydreaming about? I've called you several times already—" Yukino Fuyuki, who had somehow appeared beside him, shook the boy's shoulder. This beautiful and elegant snow woman had finished her work and no longer had the sharp expression she had just displayed.
"You've perfectly accomplished what you asked me to do, so isn't it time for you to keep your promise?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Yuki-onna, there might not be time right now..."
Mu Xiaoxiao also felt the pull of time and space.
"You're going to back out?!"
Yukino Fuyu narrowed her eyes, her expression suddenly turning dangerous. She grabbed Mu Xiaoxiao's arm to prevent him from escaping, but the latter looked helpless. "I have no intention of going back on my word. It's just some unavoidable circumstances. Don't worry, you'll be able to see me in a few months, and I will keep my promise then."
"What do you mean by that? Wait, you..."
As a yokai, Yukino Fuyuki naturally sensed the abnormality in the boy. Even though she was holding him, she had a vague sense of unreality. He was so close, yet he felt so far away. Before Yukino Fuyuki could speak again, the person in her hand simply vanished.
She didn't even notice when he disappeared; if she hadn't just grabbed him, she would have thought it was a hallucination.
"What exactly happened just now?"
Yukino Fuyuki stood there motionless for a long time, opened her mouth, and then a more playful smile appeared on her pretty face. She said softly, "Mu Xiaoxiao, you have to fulfill your promise to me no matter what. I won't let you get away..."
On the school rooftop, after the communication card's time-travel ended, he returned to this place.
The wagtail circled merrily in the air before landing on Mu Xiaoxiao's shoulder, chirping happily. Mu Xiaoxiao's sudden disappearance had made her nervous for a while. Mu Xiaoxiao rubbed the little creature's head and looked around.
The rooftop was empty; I was all alone.
So, what about Touka?
"Could it be..." Mu Xiaoxiao quickly left the rooftop and the building. Looking at the students around her, it seemed that nothing had changed. The old school building was still the same, blocked by signs prohibiting entry.
But Mu Xiaoxiao knew that some things had changed.
Guided by the connection of his best friend's communication card, he arrived at the club building, where the missing senior was located. Soon after, he saw the beautiful girl in kendo uniform in the kendo club.
Unlike her usual long, flowing black hair, the girl had her hair tied in a ponytail and looked quite capable as she sparred with members of the kendo club.
"Tohsaka-senpai is amazing, her strength is truly incredible."
"Of course, even Miyajima-senpai has admitted that she is no match for Tohsaka-senpai."
"So why doesn't Tohsaka-senpai join the kendo club? With her help, we can definitely dominate the nation!"
"Who knows? But Tohsaka-senpai is really outstanding. She's so good at studying, sports, and kendo, and she's so gentle. She's practically perfect."
The whispers of the girls around her made Mu Xiaoxiao raise an eyebrow. The girl who used to be aloof and cold at school was now loved by everyone. Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the girl who was instructing the members of the kendo club with a kind expression.
Mu Xiaoxiao knew that this was the butterfly effect that changed history.
"Excuse me, I'm looking for Touka Tohsaka. Could you call her for me?" Mu Xiaoxiao said to a girl from the kendo club.
"Huh? Looking for a senior?" the girl asked in surprise. "Is he here to confess his feelings again?"
Despite saying that, she still went to call Touka Tohsaka. Although Touka-senpai rejected many boys who confessed to her, gentle girls usually rejected people face-to-face without embarrassing them, which is why she is so popular.
A moment later, the girl in her kendo uniform, still wiping away sweat, came to Mu Xiaoxiao.
"Did you call for me?" Touka Tohsaka looked at Mu Xiaoxiao with unfamiliar eyes and asked, "Is there something you need?"
She didn't recognize herself, and Mu Xiaoxiao knew why. The wish list was fulfilled, and history was indeed changed. Although she didn't know who the mastermind was, Touka Tohsaka's father had obviously survived.
Since her father was still alive, the girl would not have had suicidal thoughts, and therefore would not have met me because of this. So from the moment history changed, she and I became strangers.
At that time, Touka realized this. Mu Xiaoxiao recalled the scene of her rushing towards her. What was her senior thinking at that time? Mu Xiaoxiao didn't know, but she must have been very sad.
But the girl's fate has changed. She will never experience those sad and painful things again. Even if she forgets those memories—no, I can't say forget, they should just cease to exist—memories that no longer exist for her, let them go with the wind. How could I possibly let go of them?!
What a load of rubbish! We just became a couple not long ago, we even did some inappropriate things, and now we're complete strangers. How can anyone let this go? Even the most resentful person wouldn't act like this, damn it!
"that?"
Seeing Mu Xiaoxiao lost in thought, Touka Tohsaka spoke up to remind her. For some reason, she felt a strange sense of familiarity, a feeling of déjà vu, when she looked at the boy in front of her.
"Tohsaka-senpai, I want to ask you a question."
