Sweet daily life of Little Tanuki and Qin Che in Love and Deep Space

【Your imagination is quite vivid, but none of that is true! I'm simply here to take you back!】

Really? I just can't believe it...

Why are you humans so difficult to deal with?!

The voice seemed somewhat frantic, but then it seemed to remember something and returned to its peaceful tone.

[By the way, if you go back, to make it up to you, I can let you take your memories of this place with you. Hmm... you can also take your salary from your bank account. Alternatively, you can take that guy's black card too.]

You squinted, sensing that something was amiss.

"So? Are you going back or not?"

will not.

[...You greedy, stubborn human! I've already given you so many benefits! What more do you want?!]

Do you think I'm stupid?! Can I still use that card if I take it back with me?!

"Are you really not going back?"

Ok.

【Then let me tell you clearly now, if you don't go back, all your memories of your previous world will be erased by me.】

what!

[That's it. This is your only chance. If you choose to stay here, you'll become one of us, and your past memories will be meaningless. I need to correct my past mistakes. You can only choose to go back, or stay here and become a true resident.]

...Then am I still me?

[It's still you, you just lack a minor memory.]

I have a feeling you're not so kind...

【You humans are so wicked! You just love to speculate maliciously! Believe it or not, you still have a chance to change your mind before this strange magnetic field disappears. Oh, and don't blame me for not warning you, if you die here, you're really dead. Think about your comfortable world, don't you really want to go back?】

There's a hidden meaning in your words!

Damn humans, so perceptive!

...You really do seem a little silly.

You rub your forehead, wondering if this thing is really a product of some advanced civilization.

[Don't call me stupid to my face! I'll be blunt: that giant creature here is currently pinned underground by me. After you make your choice, I'll disappear, and the magnetic field here will return to normal. In other words, if you leave, this matter will no longer concern you; if you stay, you'll face that giant creature—whether you live or die is up to you.]

You're practically forcing me to choose back!

No, the choice is still yours.

Let me think...

Your mind is a jumble of thoughts. You glance at your teammates who are still discussing something, and then at the innocent civilians huddled together.

You open your phone and scroll through the text message that still hasn't received a reply.

The chat background image is still that photo of the two of you taken on the messy beach when you first met.

You just stare at your phone screen, and time ticks away...

The next second, you turned off your phone screen and started communicating with the voice as you walked back towards the team.

I've made up my mind. I'll stay, you can go. Release that stray creature; I'm ready to fight.

[Have you really decided?]

Ok.

Oh, and I have one more request.

【you say. 】

Since you can take the money from this world, can you give me back the money from my other world? I finally saved up 20 yuan, and it's all gone just like that. It hurts so much.

No, it can't just be outflows without inflows.

...Then could you help me buy diamonds with that 20 and give them to my millions of sisters in that world?

Okay, okay, you're asking for too much!

So you agreed! You have to keep your word!
