“…”

For a moment, the atmosphere became quite awkward, and Meikan and Eve looked at Fang Zheng curiously, not understanding why he rejected Zhenhong's request.

Upon hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Zhen Hong frowned slightly.

"Why?"

"Because you haven't told me why you signed a contract with me."

Fang Zheng crossed his arms and stared at Zhen Hong. He had watched the animation and knew that according to the original logic, he who signed the contract was the master, and Zhen Hong was the servant.

This is like summoning Heroic Spirits in the Holy Grail War. Except for people like Tohsaka Tokiomi who likes Cosplay and has a mental problem, no one would treat their own Heroic Spirits as masters and serve them.

The protagonist of the animation is a cowardly little brat, so he has to listen to whatever Zhenhong says, but Fangzheng doesn't like it. It's fine if he wants to sign a contract, but first we have to sort out the master-servant relationship!

“…”

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Zhen Hong was silent for a moment, but finally spoke.

"We need to sign a contract with the person who winds us up, so that we can gain strength from him and fight and move. If there is no way to sign a contract, then we won't be able to move for long."

"So you want to sign a contract with me, right?"

"...Yes, I want to sign a contract with you."

Looking at Fang Zheng's half-smile, Zhen Hong's face stiffened slightly, but she finally lowered her head helplessly and nodded.

That's right, this is the correct way to start. Don't make it sound like I'm eager to sign a contract with you.

"Do you understand?"

Fang Zheng did not kiss the ring immediately, but looked at Meigan and Eve beside him.

"Remember, in the future, you should think twice before you encounter anything, and don't agree to everything the other party says. Some guys may look cute on the outside, but they may have some tricks up their sleeves. So, before you make a decision, you must ask clearly, otherwise you will find out that you made the wrong choice after you get on board, and then you won't even have a place to cry."

At this point, Fang Zheng couldn't help but think of the group of magical girls who were deceived by QB in Madoka's world. They all had the same experience. They were deceived by QB and then sold out along with their souls. He wasn't sure if the same thing would happen in this world, but to be on the safe side, Fang Zheng thought it would be better to teach the little girls around him a lesson first.

After all, being a magical girl is a high-risk profession. Even Sakura faces unimaginable risks, not to mention Nanoha and Homura. So even if there are two magical girls in this world, it does not necessarily mean that there is no risk. After all, this world is created by selecting keywords from one's own experience, and it is possible that something like QB will appear.

That was why Fang Zheng demonstrated it to the two of them on the spot, at least to prevent them from seeing something inexplicable and then agreeing to the other party's request.

After saying this, Fang Zheng lowered his head and gently kissed the ring on Zhen Hong's finger. The next moment, a dazzling red light suddenly appeared from Zhen Hong's ring, and then entangled on the ring finger of Fang Zheng's left hand. After a moment, the light disappeared, and then a similar rose ring was worn on the ring finger.

"……snort."

After watching Fang Zheng complete the ritual, Zhen Hong snorted and turned away unhappily. Obviously, she was quite dissatisfied with Fang Zheng for disrupting her plan.

But in the eyes of Meikan and Eve, this talking and walking doll in front of them is so cute.

"Wow, she's so cute. So from today on, is Xiao Zhenhong also a member of our family?"

"almost."

Fang Zheng nodded and stood up.

"Okay, I'm going to go buy some groceries. We'll celebrate having another person in the family by having a big dinner tonight."

“Feast!”

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Meigan and Eve's eyes lit up immediately. I still have to explain here that because Fang Zheng has not traveled through the world of gourmet food, he does not have the ability to make golden dishes or ** dishes that can make people feel instantly ascended to heaven after eating them. But as the saying goes, practice makes perfect, even if his cooking level is not S-level, it is at least A-level.

But for the little girls, this is enough to enjoy.

As for the legendary golden dish... they haven't seen it either, right?

"Then I'll be back soon."

Fang Zheng made a gesture and then looked at Zhenhong.

"Oh right, it's really red."

"What's up?"

Hearing Fang Zheng calling her name, Zhen Hong turned around reluctantly and looked at him.

"Fix that window for me. I don't want to sleep in a cold draft tonight."

After giving the order silently, Fang Zheng turned around and left. Zhen Hong stared at his back in amazement, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“Huh…”

Walking out of the house and looking at the gloomy sky in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but stretch.

I never thought that the story of Rozen Maiden would unfold in this world... Does that mean I have to help Shinku complete the Alice game? By the way...what was the ending of Rozen Maiden?

Fang Zheng vaguely remembered that Rozen Maiden had two seasons, and it seemed that new characters had appeared in the second season. But he had no idea what the ending was. After all, childhood memories generally meant that when you were busy studying for exams, you didn't have time to catch up with the show until the end.

Not to mention that they were all VCDs at the beginning, so it was not easy to find them all.

But then again…

"This ring is really troublesome."

Looking at the rose ring on his left ring finger, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly. If Asuna Eriri and Xiao Hei saw this, I guarantee that Shinku would be taken off the next day. By the way, why did it have to be on the left ring finger? So the puppeteer really had bad intentions. Using common sense, who would choose to marry a puppet?

There's no doubt that puppeteer is a pervert.

With this thought in mind, Fang Zheng went to a nearby supermarket and bought some ingredients.

However, just as Fang Zheng was queuing up to pay, suddenly, a voice rang out.

“Ah, Yuuki——!!”

Hearing this voice, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly, then he turned his head and saw Kirisaki Kyoko rushing towards him like a rocket and hugged him.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence!"

"It's quite a coincidence. You'd better pay attention to the impact in public."

Fang Zheng held the ingredients and stretched out his other hand to press on Kirisaki Kyoko's head, pushing the clingy Husky away.

"What are you doing here?"

"Hehehe, Kyoko is looking for something delicious, Master... Yuuki, are you planning on cooking?"

"Well, I'm going to make a good meal tonight."

"Can I eat with you?"

"no."

Fang Zheng decisively rejected Kirisaki Kyoko's request.

"Next time I have time, I'll treat you to a meal out."

"Great, then let's go on a date together next time!"

Kirisaki Kyoko happily hugged Fang Zheng's arm again, but at this moment, suddenly, a cold voice interrupted.

"It's your turn to pay."

Hearing the voice, Fang Zheng and Kirisaki Kyoko turned around and saw behind them, a short-haired girl about the same age as them was carrying a basket of vegetables and staring at them expressionlessly.

"Ah, it's Kashiwaba, you're here too."

"Well, my mother asked me to buy groceries, so..."

The girl looked forward again, and Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders, then walked to the front and began to swipe his card to pay quickly, then left the cashier counter carrying a large bag of food.

"It really gave me a fright."

And Kirisaki Kyoko, who was following Fang Zheng, patted her chest in shock.

"Bai Ye is still so elusive, just like a ghost."

"yes……"

Fang Zheng casually answered Kirisaki Kyoko's words while looking at the girl who was paying at the cashier. The other party was also their classmate, named Kashiwaba Tomoe. She was a very taciturn person in the class, and she didn't talk much. Fang Zheng remembered that she was in the kendo club at school, but she rarely interacted with others on weekdays. Although she was not ugly, she looked more ordinary compared to the beautiful girls of school idol level such as Kirisaki Kyoko, Sairenji Haruna and Toriumi Sakura.

In addition, her gloomy personality makes her no different from a transparent person in the class.

Fang Zheng's impression of her was limited to the girl's silent and gloomy personality, and the teardrop mole at the left corner of her eye.

But now, Fang Zheng has another impression.

She is also the signatory of the Rozen Maiden contract.

Looking at the rose ring on the ring finger of Bai Yeba's left hand, Fang Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly.

I always feel that something troublesome is going to happen... This shouldn't be my illusion.

"What's wrong, Yuuki?"

At this moment, Kirisaki Kyoko also curiously leaned close to Fang Zheng's ear, whispering and asking. Fang Zheng reached out and pressed Kirisaki Kyoko's head, then shook his head.

"Nothing, well, I should go back now."

"Eh? Can't you really add me in? I want to eat Yuuki's food, too!"

"I refuse. Today is a family dinner, and taking you back will only cause more trouble."

The two of them walked out of the supermarket, and soon after, Baiyeba also came out with a plastic bag. She turned her head and looked at Kirisaki Kyoko who was entangled with Fang Zheng, and did not speak for a long time.

There was no light in the girl's eyes.

Then she turned around and embarked on a different journey home from the other two.
