"Well, I know. There must be many people like me waiting for Mr. Exorcist to save them."

Unexpectedly, this time the girl didn't say anything willful, but just spoke softly.

Li Mo: "..."

I can't say it, actually I just felt a little uncomfortable sleeping like that last night, plus I sweated a little at night, and now I just want to go home and take a shower. I can't say this at all...

Fujiwara Chika didn't realize Li Mo's embarrassment, and just continued to say to him: "Then when we meet next time, I will thank Mr. Exorcist properly, and we will go out and play together!"

"Ah, um."

Li Mo nodded perfunctorily: "Yes."

After tidying up his clothes, Li Mo made a fox gesture: "Knock."

The shadow under the bed squirmed out, and then transformed into a fox-like shape that took up most of the room.

However, unlike yesterday when she was frightened and trembling with fear and lost interest in life by the huge evil spirit that also occupied half of the room, Fujiwara Chika can now look at this fox monster with a calmer gaze.

Li Mo waved to the girl, and the fox monster rolled up and rushed out of the window, disappearing from the girl's sight in an instant, leaving only a few small silver snakes. In the girl's surprised sight, they crawled out of the window and turned into security bars again as if there was no change at all.

Chapter 347: The name of the dessert shop.

Momoka Kawahara woke up from a pile of unopened cardboard boxes.

She stared blankly at the unfamiliar ceiling. It took her several minutes to come to her senses and realize that she had moved out of the small sparrow cage she had originally rented.

"Ugh……"

She scratched her messy hair and yawned like an uncle.

Yesterday she waited for the boss for a long time, but he didn't come back until the evening. She felt shy because she couldn't help crying in front of him. She prepared herself mentally for a long time and thought of countless ways to say something to cover up the past when she faced that guy again. Then she called a moving company to move all the luggage over.

Although this also means that the other party trusts her very much - even Kawahara Ki Momoka herself doesn't understand why the other party trusts her so much - but living alone in a strange attic, she still feels a little lonely.

"I should have gotten used to it by now..."

Kawahara Kimoka muttered something, then slapped her face hard, trying to wake herself up quickly and cheer herself up.

I ended up slapping her so hard that her cheeks turned red.

Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she covered her face and sniffed like a little girl: "Ouch...it doesn't hurt at all!"

From the attic stairs, you can reach the second floor of the store. According to the design of the boss, this place should serve as a warehouse, but currently several rooms are empty and there is nothing in them.

Momoka Kawahara didn't think, "Since there's nothing here, can't I just stay in this room which is obviously more comfortable?"

Having been out there for so long, she had met many people and seen many things. Naturally, she knew that the boss's willingness to lend her the attic was a gesture of kindness. She must not take the other party's kindness for granted, or even ask for more without self-awareness.

However, there is a bathroom on the second floor, which can solve simple washing problems without having to run downstairs with your bare face from the previous night and scare the guests.

"It smells so good..."

After washing up quickly, Kawahara Ki Momoka just walked out of the bathroom and smelled a fragrance in the air.

It was a scent of toasted wheat flour, high-quality butter filled with milky aroma, and sweet cream mixed with fresh fruit, a scent that seemed like the embodiment of some kind of happiness.

She walked down the stairs and came to the part of the store used for business, and saw the boss who had disappeared all day yesterday wearing heat-insulating gloves and bringing out a plate of dessert that looked freshly baked.

"Oh, are you awake already? Actually, you could have slept longer."

Li Mo greeted her.

"No need, I still have quite a bit of self-control!"

Momoka Kawahara spoke sternly, her breasts puffed out, which often attracted pity looks from her peers, probably due to long-term malnutrition.

Of course, it was just a lie. If she were to ask what satisfied her about being a freelance rock singer, a terrible job with extremely unstable income, apart from being able to satisfy her love for music, it would probably be the fact that her life and work hours were extremely free.

In fact, even when she was still in the band and could barely take off the hat of being unemployed, Momoka Kawahara often went to celebratory parties with her teammates after live performances. It was quite common for her to get drunk and wake up at noon.

"No, I mean, today is probably the last day you can take a nap."

Li Mo smiled harmlessly: "As a pastry chef, even if you are just a waiter, please be prepared before opening the shop."

"...Can I ask what time the store opens?"

"Six in the morning."

"If I resign now..."

"Just kidding, even I can't get up that early."

Li Mo said with a happy smile.

"Scared me."

Momoka Kawahara breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's actually six ten."

"There's absolutely no difference! Ten minutes is already considered an error, I think!"

"I think it's romantic to say 'Let me sleep for five more minutes' when you're still asleep at six o'clock."

"You only have five minutes left to wash and put on makeup? That's more embarrassing than romantic!"

Of course, Li Mo is not a devil. Although he does have to get up early in the morning, the work in the dessert shop is actually quite leisurely. So after the peak of customer flow, such as before lunch, just after lunch, and after afternoon tea when there are not many customers, Kawahara Momoka, the only waiter, cashier, salesperson and musician in the store, can take a nap at will.

Besides, the dessert shop closes very early, so it is her freedom to arrange her time as she pleases after closing.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Momoka Kawahara reluctantly said goodbye to her life of being able to sleep in, and chose to contribute to the further (?) greatness of Li Mo's dessert house.

"By the way, what's the name of this store?"

Momoka Kawahara asked curiously, "I'm going to work here, but I don't even know the name of the store. It feels a bit strange..."

"Um……"

Li Mo thought about it, and for some reason a pink-haired girl with a sweet smile popped up in his mind. That sweet feeling was subtly in line with the dessert shop.

"How about Anon Tokyo?"

"Sounds like some low-brow rock band."

Kawahara Ki Momoka said subconsciously without even thinking.

"..."

Sorry, Aiyin, even I don't know how to refute her correct complaints. Li Mo mourned Aiyin's poor taste in his heart.

"By the way, the store manager..."

"Hey, aren't you calling me boyfriend-kun anymore?"

Li Mo came back to his senses and asked.

"After all, I really have to work here, and it feels a bit inappropriate to shout like that now."

Kawahara Momoka scratched her head: "The one in your hand..."

The baking tray that Li Mo had been holding was filled with white, round little rabbits that looked a bit like glutinous rice balls. Judging from the heat and sweetness emanating from them, they should be a kind of dessert.

"This? It's a new dessert inspired by wagashi. You were drunk earlier and asked for anmitsu. We don't have anything that trendy here, but if you don't mind the red bean paste filling, this should be quite delicious."

Li Mo said.

"Actually, there's no need to worry so much..."

Upon hearing this, Kawahara Momoka felt a little embarrassed, and at the same time she kept hating herself in her heart. She had no idea how many nonsense she had said that night when she was drunk.

"It's also a preparation for developing limited-edition new products for the store. After all, Japanese people have no resistance to the word limited."

Li Mo didn't care: "You should try it quickly."

"Then I won't hesitate..."

Just as Kawahara Momoka was about to pick it up, she fell silent for a moment: "Um, I just saw a rabbit dessert jump as if it came alive?"

"It's probably just that the bran underneath wasn't roasted thoroughly, so it cracked a little. Don't worry about it."

Li Mo responded seriously.

"Yes, is that so..."

Momoka Kawahara picked up a little rabbit the size of a hot spring bun, hesitated for a long time before she mustered up the courage to put it in her mouth and took a bite. She found that it was indeed just a dessert, and it was moderately sweet, with a very good texture and taste.

"Delicious! This is going to be a huge hit!"

Her eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Li Mo gave an awkward smile and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

It seems the house-elves in the Elven Kitchen really can't get their hands on wagashi, so their reference is probably Chocolate Frog...

I hope these rabbits won’t be as naughty as the Chocolate Frogs and can be more obedient.

However, it seems that Kawahara Ki Momoka really likes the red bean-filled glutinous rice bunny that has been specially seasoned by the house-elves. She squinted her eyes while eating, and she completely lost the pretentiousness of deliberately maintaining an adult persona just now, and became much cuter.

"Want some more rabbit?"

Li Mo handed the baking tray to her.

Momoka Kawahara hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the deliciousness of the little rabbit. She picked up another one and started eating it, and the smile on her face became even happier.

Li Mo looked at her happy smiling face and suddenly said, "Order rabbit."

"what?"

Kawahara Momoka asked incoherently with her mouth full of glutinous rice and honey filling.

"Let's just call this shop 'Diantu Dessert House'!"

Li Mo concluded: "It just so happens that this shopping street is also called Rabbit Hill Shopping Street, so let's all order some rabbit today!"

Chapter 348: About the school festival program.

Although I have set a great ambition to promote "Rabbit Dumpling (tentative name)" to everyone, the specific way to do it is still a problem.

"As expected, we should use the most traditional tactics. How about handing out flyers? If we can combine it with tastings, I think it would be a pretty good promotion."

Momoka Kawahara, who is quite satisfied with the taste of the rabbit dumplings and has become a fan of the dish, suggested this.

As a street musician who was performing on the streets not long ago, the only hurdle to distributing flyers, the shame, has long been overcome. For Momoka Kawahara, this level of thing is no longer even a challenge.

"It's not impossible, but right now, you're the only one we have on hand, Momoka-san. If you were to hand out flyers, the store wouldn't be able to operate."

Li Mo said with some distress.

"Before this, why didn't you include yourself, the store manager, in the battle force? Do you really want to be lazy?"

Kawahara Momoka stared at Li Mo and said.

"Ah, Miss Momoka, did you forget something?"

Li Mo pointed at himself, and said with a smile that was so sunny that it made people feel inexplicably uncomfortable: "I am still a student, and I am about to go to school now."

"Gu..."

Momoka Kawahara, who dropped out of high school at the age of 17, felt inexplicably hurt.

"Your suggestion is indeed a good one, though. I'll have someone help me design the flyers and stuff. The remaining bunny dumplings will quickly expire if they're not eaten quickly. It's up to you, Ms. Momoka, to decide whether to refrigerate them or distribute them to the other people in the shopping district. Today's are just prototypes, so don't worry about the cost."

Li Mo pulled out his deflated-looking schoolbag from somewhere and said hello to Kawahara Momoka: "Then I'll be leaving first."

"Have a safe journey~"

Kawahara Momoka was holding a rabbit dumpling in her mouth and waved to Li Mo in an unimportant manner.

Inside Sobu High School.

As the top student in the school year, Li Mo naturally received a certain degree of preferential treatment from most teachers. Even though many teachers noticed that he was a little absent-minded today, except for Shizuka Hiratsuka, the other teachers tacitly pretended not to notice.

Li Mo also spent a whole morning doodling illustrations in several textbooks, and confirmed that his current life was similar to his previous life, with no artistic talent.

It seems that not only the flyers, but even the sign design of the Rabbit Dessert House has to be handed over to professionals.

When the bell rang, signaling lunch break, Li Mo was about to stand up when he discovered that the class monitor had run to the podium and stopped the students who were about to leave.

"Although it's a bit rushed, I want to take this opportunity to decide what activities our class will do at the school festival."

The squad leader said loudly.
