Jinpei Matsuda

After a satisfying meal and a few drinks, Ah Ye sprawled on the sofa and glanced at the phone: "The note is Brother, meow."

Matsuda Chinatsu answered the phone: "Such a busy man actually has time to call me. I thought the sun hasn't even risen yet today."

On the other end of the phone, Matsuda Jinpei tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk-tsk, not wanting to joke with her: "Are you sick?"

Matsuda Chinatsu knew who had reported the secret without even thinking: "Humph, that guy is so idle every day, he really is too comfortable."

Matsuda Jinpei casually pulled out a cigarette and held it between his lips without smoking. "Matsuda Chinatsu, don't change the subject. What's going on? Tianhe Tsukasa said you were in a bad state."

"That's not the case." Matsuda Chinatsu pushed Aye, who had been eavesdropping, away and lowered her voice, "The weather has turned cold recently, and it coincided with the season... I just got sick. You know, I'll be fine in a few days, don't worry."

"Is there someone by your side?" Matsuda Jinpei asked, but his tone was firm. "I told you long ago to hire a nanny. Now that you have no one to take care of you, how can I be at ease?"

Seeing that Matsuda Jinpei was about to start nagging again, Matsuda Chinatsu held her forehead with her hand, feeling overwhelmed. "Alright, alright, there are so many dangerous items in my house. If an ordinary person comes here and something goes wrong, I'm too lazy to argue with your police department and the Special Bureau. It's troublesome."

Matsuda Jinpei knew she wouldn't listen right now, and considering she was still weak, he couldn't bear to say more, so he said, "Really... I'll probably rush back the day before Christmas. If all goes well, I can stay there for the New Year. Also, Hagi might come visit and collect those shameful things."

Something shameful...

The corners of Matsuda Chinatsu's mouth twitched. They were clearly some magical items, but why did they sound different when they came out of his mouth?

"Moshimoshi? Did you hear that?"

"Hey—I see."

Matsuda Chinatsu responded weakly.

After hanging up the phone, Matsuda Chinatsu looked at Tsukuyomi Ikuto who came out of the kitchen and asked casually, "How are you going to spend Christmas, Tsukuyomi-kun?"

"Who knows. I have to go now. See you later."

Matsuda Chinatsu watched him leave, pondered for a moment, returned to the study, turned on the computer, and typed rapidly with her ten fingers. A stream of text messages and various pictures converged in her eyes.

"Well, this is really a big trouble..."

————

With the arrival of winter vacation, Matsuda Chinatsu noticed that she could often sense the presence of bad guys recently, and Tsukuyomi Ikuto was getting busier and busier.

Unlike her own home, the Tsukuyomi family next door has two servants. Matsuda Chinatsu noticed out of boredom when she was staying at home that no matter if someone went out for shopping or other reasons, there would always be at least one servant left at home.

Considering Tsukuyomi Ikuto's attitude, Matsuda Chinatsu guessed that these two people were sent by the Resurrection Society to monitor him.

"That's tough, Black Cat-kun."

Chinatsu Matsuda stretched and dragged her finally recovered body out the door.

She went out today to buy things for the New Year and decorations for the Christmas tree. After she came back, she found that the Christmas tree was bigger than she expected and the decorations she bought before were not enough.

On the way home, a pitch-black egg with a white cross on it flew past her.

Matsuda Chinatsu was carrying two large bags and was wondering whether to get involved in this trivial matter. Tsukuyomi Jito, who had undergone a transformation, fell from the sky and caught the bad guy.

Matsuda Chinatsu stared at his cat ears: "Wow."

Tsukuyomi Jito's cat ears trembled.

Aye arrived late, holding another bad guy.

"Jidou, this bad guy is too troublesome, meow, I can hardly catch him, meow..."

Aye's vision was blocked by the bad guy and he didn't see Matsuda Chinatsu.

"Are you feeling better?" Yue Yong Jidou looked at her.

Matsuda Chinatsu responded, handed him the bag in her right hand, and drew out her wand to purify the two villains.

Yue Yong Jidou and Aye stared at the silver-blue mist.

Matsuda Chinatsu waved her wand, and each Shugo Chara moved their gazes along with her movements.

"Curious?" she asked, teasing a cat.

A Ye nodded hurriedly, and Yue Yongjidou should be more reserved.

Matsuda Chinatsu smiled and said, "Let me touch the cat ears and I'll tell you."

Yue Yong Jidou turned and left.

Matsuda Chinatsu sighed regretfully.

Someone who had already left turned around and took away another bag from her hand.

Matsuda Chinatsu followed him leisurely.

A Ye was flying at the end in a daze, and he felt as if he had discovered a big secret.

When they got home, Matsuda Chinatsu cordially invited them in as guests, but Tsukuyomi Jito commented with a cold face, "You have bad intentions."

Still walked in.

Following the principle of "if you want the horse to run, you must first feed it with grass", Chinatsu Matsuda took out the tea set that had not been used for a long time and brewed a pot of black tea. She also placed some desserts such as cookies and chocolates that she had just bought, and even put a plate of dried fish specifically for Aye.

Yue Yongjidou held the black tea in his hand and was silent for a moment: "It's not poisoned, right?"

Aye, who was happily chewing on the dried fish, froze.

Matsuda Chinatsu replied dimly, "Yes, it was given, and it's a deadly poison that kills instantly upon contact with blood."

Yue Yongjidou felt relieved and drank his tea leisurely.

After feeding the horse with grass, Chinatsu Matsuda began to command the horse with confidence.

"It's crooked, a little to the left."

"Hmm...a little bit higher."

"OK, next."

Matsuda Chinatsu pointed to a pendant in the box and it flew up. Tsukuyomi Jito complained, "You obviously have magic, and you asked me to do it."

Matsuda Chinatsu controlled a star ornament to fly to his hand, "You don't understand, I have to see exactly where to put each decoration, and I have to adjust it back and forth. It's troublesome."

After decorating the Christmas tree, the lunch ordered by Matsuda Chinatsu also arrived.

She called them: "Come and eat."

Tsukuei Jito was curled up on the sofa like a cat, with his head resting on the pillow, and his eyes moved as Matsuda Chinatsu moved.

Chinatsu Matsuda felt that if he was in his transformed form now, the tail must be swinging behind him intermittently.

She was amused by her own thoughts and waved to Yue Yong Jidou: "Black Cat, here are some dried fish that you like to eat~"

Yue Yong's eyes widened: "This is a dog-attracting gesture..."

Matsuda Chinatsu didn't care: "It's all the same."

After dinner, Yue Yong Jidou was still the one who cleaned the table.

Matsuda Chinatsu curled up on the sofa, watching the people busy in the kitchen, feeling a sense of unreality as if she were in another world - until now, she still couldn't figure out how she and Tsukuyomi Jito became so familiar with each other inexplicably.

Tsukuyomi Jito is like a cat, coming and going without a trace. He himself also has a cat-like vigilance, and it is actually difficult for him to include other people in his circle.

As for Chinatsu Matsuda, although she is committed to playing an ordinary and ordinary girl, when the night is quiet, she knows better than anyone that she can't go back to the past.

She should have treated everyone equally under that gentle mask, but accidents happened one after another, first Suzuki Ayako and then Tsukuyomi Jito.

They tore off the mask and touched her real flesh and blood, even if it was only a part of it.

Chinatsu Matsuda sometimes feels anxious, wondering if they will leave her if they see the complete her one day.
