Chapter 62 Chapter 62 The throbbing sensation among the dolls!
62
Shibuya business center.
The busy streets are bustling with people and traffic, and many fashionable people are walking in a hurry.
Li Xiaoqi and Xia Youjie walked side by side on the roadside, heading towards a large shopping mall.
Xia Yujie lowered his eyes and looked at Li Xiaoqi. "I'm sorry, I called you out to keep me company during my rare break."
Li Xiaoqi waved his hand and smiled, "No, no, Xia Yu-kun helped us a lot in the past. Now I'm just helping you choose a gift. In comparison, this is insignificant."
She braided her hair into two pigtails that hung on her shoulders, with a silver headband passing through her hair, reflecting colorful light in the sunlight.
When Geto Suguru saw her wearing a white dress, he couldn't help but think of the time when she encountered the cursed spirit some time ago.
"Ms. Nana, this dress suits you very well. You can finally wear it out for a stroll today."
Li Xiaoqi remembered how embarrassed she was when she wore this skirt last time and laughed embarrassedly.
“I was really embarrassed at that time…”
"That slime..."
Geto Suguru chuckled, his eyes gleaming with laughter. "Well, the slime's body is indeed very soft and flexible. If there were a doll that felt like that, it would definitely be a big seller."
Li Xiaoqi blinked, then laughed at his teasing. "Oh! I didn't expect Geto-kun to have such a business acumen. If you stop being a sorcerer and switch to being a businessman, that would be fantastic."
Xia Yujie showed a stunned expression and looked up at the blue sky, "Really..."
Li Xiaoqi looked up at his profile, seeing his gentle appearance bathed in the sun, and whispered softly, "Keep it up."
"Um?"
Xia Yujie looked over and asked, "What did you just say?"
Li Xiaoqi shook his head slightly and changed the subject: "By the way, how is Sister Lizi?"
Xia Yujie laughed and said, "She went back to school to study well, and Miss Kuroi has been with her all the time."
"After the incident of the high-ranking officials being possessed by cursed spirits, everyone in the high-ranking officials was in a state of panic. No one dared to leave their homes, and they no longer cared about Riko. The curse masters who were hunting Riko were driven away by Wu, and they even went to threaten the Panxing Sect."
"Zenin Shin'er later found Wu and sold his son Fushiguro Megumi to the Gojo family and disappeared. No one knows where he went."
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly and finally realized a problem.
"Why is Mr. Shen'er's last name..."
Xia Yujie pondered for a moment and said, "I just heard that after Zenin Jiner left the Zenin family, he married into the Fushiguro family, but for some reason, he later changed his surname back. It's obvious from the way he looks that he hates the Zenin family."
"I see..."
Li Xiaoqi sighed, feeling that the story was somewhat different from what he remembered.
Maybe this world is one of the parallel worlds?
It is natural that the characters' stories and destinies are different from those in the main world.
Li Xiaoqi came back to his senses and found that Xia Youjie was staring at the vehicles passing by on the road.
There was a rustling sound from the swaying trees and the noise of the crowd, but Geto Suguru's expression was dazed and he reflected nothing.
"Suyu-kun, what's wrong?"
Li Xiaoqi asked.
Xia Yujie came back to his senses and murmured, "It seems that besides sister Riko, there are other astral plasmas."
"That is to say, after Sister Riko dies, there will be a replacement."
"If she really died last time, would her death be meaningless? No... her meaning was to become a shield for the other astral bodies, attracting the attention of all those who opposed Tianyuan-sama's fusion."
"And Haibara and Nanami's mission... It was originally a level 2 mission, but the cursed spirits they encountered were actually level 1 Land Gods and special-level cursed spirits. Without you and Mr. Dazai, they wouldn't have survived."
Li Xiaoqi slowed down his breathing, and Xia Yujie's eyes began to become dull.
She patted Geto Suguru's shoulder hard, her voice amplified a lot.
"Suyu-kun, what are you thinking about? Stop dwelling on it!"
Geto Xia Yu suddenly came back to his senses, with an apologetic look on his face, "I'm sorry, I was daydreaming at this time..."
Li Xiaoqi looked at him for a few seconds, then immediately grabbed Xia Youjie's wrist and pulled him forward.
"Ms. Nana?"
Hearing the doubtful voice behind him, Li Xiaoqi turned around and looked at him and smiled, "Gatsuyu-kun, even if that's the case, so what? Wasn't Sister Riko successfully protected?
"She can now go back to school and live with Miss Kuroi. This is largely due to Suguru-kun."
"As for what happened to Haibara, my brother and I are both responsible, so it's only right for us to help them."
Xia Yujie's heart trembled, and he hesitated, "Really?"
"Really, Geto-kun, don't overthink it. You did a great job! You protected the people you needed to protect."
Li Xiaoqi held his hands with both hands, his eyes firm.
"As for those higher-ups, if you hate them, then don't be a sorcerer. I'd say you could open a shop, change jobs, or become a businessman. Anything is fine."
"Although you can see things that others cannot see and possess powers that others do not have, it does not mean that you should force yourself to accept practices that you do not like. When you feel tired, you might as well temporarily escape from your original world and explore the world of ordinary people."
Xia Yujie was stunned, his eyes moved.
He slowly clenched his fist and pulled his hand out.
"I see."
He smiled, the expression between his brows still gentle, but with a hint of confusion.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoqi said no more and pushed his back into the door.
"Aren't you going to pick out a gift for your cousin? Let's go!"
*
Inside the mall, a wide variety of merchandise is displayed in the windows. Many children who have come out with their parents are leaning on the windows, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Li Xiaoqi stood in front of the doll shop and blinked slowly.
"here?"
"Live broadcast begins. Host Li Xiaoqi, please adjust your expression. Live broadcast begins—"
A familiar live broadcast screen appeared in the void on the side.
Damn, the title at the top of the live broadcast screen reads: Xiao Qi and Geto Xia Yu's first date! Xiao Qi is leaving tomorrow, so what will Geto Xia Yu decide?
【!!! Wait, what did I miss!】
[Oh oh oh——My Xia Qi CP has risen! ]
[This title... Let me calm down. Xiao Qi is leaving this world tomorrow, and Jie is going to make his final confession?]
[Let me recall, at the end of yesterday's live broadcast, the system said that when Xiao Qi and Zai return to this world, it will be ten years later...]
[Ahhh! My groundhog barked!]
[Am I going to fall after killing the seven great flags? — Woo woo woo]
The comments flashing across the screen were polarized. Some were particularly happy about Xia Yujie and Li Xiaoqi, while others were emo about Dazai Osamu and Li Xiaoqi, as well as Xiaoqi pushing people alone and Jie pushing people alone.
[…I want to eat some coffee jelly to calm down.]
The red barrage flashed among the numerous barrages.
[Coffee jelly! Could it be Qi Shen?]
[Impossible Impossible]
[In this live broadcast room, we are all from the same world]
[But Qi Shen is so powerful, maybe he can come in.]
[Those who said Qi Shen could come in earlier probably read too much fan fiction.]
Qi Shen shouldn't be in the live broadcast room...
And please don’t ship this couple anymore!
She was very panicked now, extremely panicked, especially after seeing the title of the live broadcast room, she suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
Eh…
Didn’t Getsuyu-kun say he wanted to buy a birthday present for his cousin?
It must be that the system came up with such a title to attract the audience's attention. It is a clickbait and will not miss any opportunity to make the audience eat melons.
Li Xiaoqi looked at the barrage of comments that kept passing by and felt ashamed. He took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"What's wrong?"
Geto Summer asked with concern.
Li Xiaoqi smiled and shook his head, deciding to ignore the live broadcast interface next to him and focus his attention on the store in front of him.
The shop's sign is made up of black and pink, with a heart symbol at the end of the store name.
"This is a popular shop among girls lately, want to go in and take a look?"
The unusually cute store name artwork was reflected in Geto Suguru's eyes, and he suggested with a smile.
Li Xiaoqi nodded and looked at the girls coming in and out, a smile flashing in his eyes.
"Then go in. But I'm a little surprised that Geto-kun knows quite a bit about the popular shops among girls."
Xia Yujie coughed lightly and said awkwardly: "Don't get me wrong, this is what Gaozi told me."
Li Xiaoqi turned his head and looked into his eyes, the tension revealed in them was obvious.
She laughed and made an inviting gesture, "Then please come in."
Xia Yujie was stunned and walked into the store with his hands and feet together.
Li Xiaoqi slapped him on the back and pushed him in.
"I'm sorry, I lost my composure..."
Geto Xia Yu glanced around the store and saw many couples walking hand in hand between the shelves, and his ears suddenly turned slightly red.
"This is my first time in a place like this."
Li Xiaoqi smiled and said jokingly, "Then Xia Yu-kun must love his sister very much."
Xia Yujie's eyebrows and eyes were soft, and the figure of Li Xiaoqi was reflected in his eyes.
"Um."
Li Xiaoqi glanced at the customers in the store and couldn't help but feel that Xia Youjie was so restrained.
The girls around here are either with their best friends or in pairs.
She raised her eyes, met Geto Suguru's gaze, and looked away uncomfortably.
Li Xiaoqi frowned in distress and fixed his eyes on a cute brown bear on the shelf.
"Hey, look, is this good?"
She picked up the teddy bear and waved it in front of Geto Suguru, trying to divert his attention.
Geto Xia Yu suddenly came back to his senses and nodded heavily.
"good."
He glanced around casually, and suddenly his eyes passed Li Xiaoqi and noticed the pink and purple rabbits on the shelf against the wall opposite.
The little rabbit is wearing a white princess dress, and her lips are raised in a cute curve.
Xia Yujie laughed out loud, took Li Xiaoqi's hand and walked to the shelf.
When Li Xiaoqi felt the big hand wrapping around him, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Suguru-kun, you..."
Before she could finish her words, her hand loosened.
Xia Yujie said: "Well, this one is good, let's buy this one."
He talked to himself and walked towards the cashier.
Li Xiaoqi stared blankly at Xia Youjie's back, looking as if something bad was going to happen.
Damai!
It couldn't be what she thought—
"New CG has been created—a thrill permeates the dolls! Purchase time: ten minutes."
Ahhhh!
Li Xiaoqi felt a groundhog cry in his heart, and the smile on his face almost collapsed.
In the captured footage, Geto Suguru was holding her hand as they walked between the toy shelves. She opened her eyes wide and looked at his back in surprise.
Geto Suguru tied his hair half up into a bun, and the rest of his hair was scattered on his shoulders.
He was wearing black overalls and a white short-sleeved shirt, with a black vest on the outside, and small silver earrings on his ears, looking particularly handsome.
The guests passing by turned their heads and cast astonished glances at Geto Suguru.
Li Xiaoqi raised his hand to support his forehead and did not raise his head until Xia Yujie called out to him twice.
"Really? What are you standing there for?"
Xia Yujie walked over, the silver chain around his neck swaying and flashing in the light.
Li Xiaoqi opened his lips slightly and was almost blinded by the image of the handsome guy walking towards him, who looked like a game CG.
Handsome, really handsome.
Many girls around cast envious glances at him. Li Xiaoqi dug his toes into the ground and smiled sheepishly.
Xia Youjie carried the gift bag, held Li Xiaoqi's wrist and walked out in full view of everyone.
He didn't hold her hand this time, but just pulled her politely.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, Geto Suguru felt a chill on his back, as if someone was staring at him.
He frowned slightly and looked around, but didn't find anyone suspicious.
Li Xiaoqi withdrew his hand and coughed lightly, "What happened? You're so nervous all of a sudden..."
Geto Xiayou relaxed the tense expression on his face and shook his head gently.
"Nothing, maybe I'm a little sensitive because of too much going on lately."
Li Xiaoqi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that in such a busy shopping mall with so many people around, the curse spirit was going to cause trouble again.
