Chapter Forty-Nine: What is the slave brand?

 [Blue Sky Islet: Cong Yu, actually, this is what happened.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: I stayed up very late last night reading the comics you sent me, and somehow I fell asleep.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: If you lift the covers in the morning, you'll see that I'm actually not wearing anything.]

 "..."

 [Cong Yu: ...]

 Cong Yu walked along the road and replied to Lan Tianzhu with six dots on his phone... Speaking of which, he's the one who's really having a headache now.

 Is it really appropriate to say something like this so simply?

 Or……

 Cong Yu recalled that no matter what happened, Lan Tianzhu always maintained a calm face and tone of voice.

 One has to admire that Lantianzhu truly lives up to its name.

 With this in mind, Cong Yu felt that since Lan Tianzhu wasn't embarrassed, then she had nothing to be embarrassed about.

 [Cong Yu: Actually, I did lift it up, but after seeing it, I felt something was wrong, so I covered it back up for you.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: Do you think my body doesn't look good?]

 Is my reply interpreted as "???"? Isn't your way of thinking terrible? How should I reply?

 Hesitantly, Cong Yu decided not to give a direct answer about whether her body was in good condition.

 Although from that brief glance, if we disregard the criminal aspect... it's quite interesting.

 All I can say is that they are absolutely adorable.

 [Cong Yu: This is bad for my character.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: Thank you.]

 After seeing Lan Tianzhu's quick reply, Cong Yu waited for a while but didn't receive any further updates, so the matter from this morning was considered closed.

 But just as Cong Yuzhen was about to put her phone back in her pocket, she saw Lan Tianzhu's message a moment before that—

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: Can we not tell Hikaru about what happened this morning?]

 [Cong Yu: I'm not a talkative person, and similarly, please keep my identity a secret for me.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: Okay.]

 [Blue Sky Nagisa: Um, I'll be more restrained in the future.]

 [Cong Yu: Hmm.]

 "..." This time there was no further news. It was probably because Cong Yu's "hmm" killed the conversation, leaving people unsure how to respond.

 To put it bluntly, Lan Tianzhu's initial confession should never have happened.

 I have a feeling that Cong Yu's "scandalous bastard" behavior could be used to steer things in a certain direction, or rather...

 It's developing in a more comic book style.

 Of course, I'm referring to the kind of comics that Lan Tianzhu read last night.

 However, Cong Yu is clearly not that kind of person.

 Moreover, even if Cong Yu starved to death, died in Fuuto, or jumped off a building, it was impossible for her to fall in love with a magical girl.

 Otherwise, given Cong Yu's understanding of magical girls and her perception of the idealism inherent in similar plot devices...

 It's fine if my identity isn't exposed.

 What if my magical girl girlfriend found out I'm a weirdo executive?

 So maybe she'll suddenly unleash her full power, shouting things like, "Even if I cripple Cong Yu, I'll still bring you back to the village!" while...

 Something seems off, but that's basically it.

 With that thought in mind, Cong Yu put on the mask, then walked into the Nagashima family's yard and rang the doorbell—"Ding-dong—"

 Then, it was the cautious Nagashima Koki who opened the door.

 Wow, the handsome guy is here!

 Nagashima Koki said cheerfully, gesturing for Cong Yu to go inside, while also excitedly shouting, "Mommy, handsome brother is here, he must have killed Daddy."

 "!!!" Because he was wearing a mask, the child couldn't see Cong Yu's expression at that moment... What the child said was really scary.

 How can a child say such terrifying things without batting an eye, even with a hint of joy?

 Meanwhile, Nagashima Koki's mother, Nagashima Riko, peeked out and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it was Murasame.

 "You've arrived, please have a seat."

 As Riko Nagashima said this, her hair now tied up, she looked somewhat like a housewife.

 The apron she was wearing looked to be the same style as Yaochuan Guang's, but it was obviously several sizes too big, otherwise she wouldn't be able to fit into it.

 So Yaochuan Guang was indeed a housewife.

 Yaochuan Guang! You housewife...

 He called her a housewife as soon as they met?

 The Way of the Housewife, a prestigious serialized story!

 ……

 Without any hesitation, Cong Yu sat down on the sofa and said something that relieved both the mother and daughter: "It's resolved. Don't worry, we've done nothing wrong."

 The name omitted here is clearly Yasuharu Nagashima.

 Then, Cong Yu looked at Nagashima Koki and asked, "Aren't you going to school? Isn't today Thursday?"

 Judging from Nagashima Koki's age, she's probably in elementary school.

 "Yes, because I thought you would be coming soon, I asked for leave for Xiaoxi."

 Riko Nagashima responded first, asking the masked boy, "Would you like something to drink? Would you like some black tea?"

 "Pressure Masne."

 In response to Cong Yu's affirmative (sure) reply, Nagashima Riko...

 They served black tea, but the atmosphere... felt rather strange.

 I always felt that this kind of "killing someone's father and then visiting her home" scenario was actually quite awful.

 At least that's what Cong Yu thought.

 "Handsome brother, aren't you going to school?"

 When Congyu saw Nagashima Koki leaning close to her, she paused for a moment before asking, "So, why do you call me handsome brother? And why do you like to come so close, acting like we're old friends?"

 Cong Yu felt she needed to confirm this, since when she interacted with her as a "helpful passerby," she had called her "handsome brother."

 Although the people in this world lack the ability to judge others' identities, and Nagashima Koki might just be all talk, this coincidence still makes Congyu take it seriously.

 "Huh? Haven't I always called you handsome brother? Handsome brother is a good person. He saved Mom before, the one who caught that weirdo."

 "..." Okay, Cong Yu can confirm it now, Nagashima Koki is an anomaly in this world... Yes, an anomaly.

 In this world, as long as someone is wearing a mask, or even glasses, it is impossible to judge their identity from their body shape, hairstyle, or appearance.

 Riko Nagashima is a typical example. When she came out with a cup of black tea, she was initially confused by what her daughter had said.

 Then, I saw Cong Yu nodding as she removed her mask.

 "Huh? It's you?"

 Riko Nagashima was thrown into confusion for a moment; she had never imagined that Murami was the boy who had saved her earlier.

 Then, in the next instant, she smiled again, and suddenly felt much more at ease: "I was saved twice—"

 Indeed, that's how it is according to common sense.

 Speechless, Cong Yu tapped Nagashima Koki's head with her finger... and the other party didn't even try to dodge.

 Then she realized what was going on.

 "Huh? It tickles..."

 As Nagashima Koki said this, she scratched her forehead.

 Then, Cong Yu extended her hand to Nagashima Riko and commanded, "Manager, come shake hands."

 Upon hearing Cong Yu's instructions, Nagashima Riko hesitated for a moment: "Huh? Eh? Oh... is that so?"

 "Huh? Hmm!"

 The moment Nagashima Riko shook hands with Cong Yu, she felt a tingling sensation coming from the fingertips of their hands touching.

 Neither of them noticed that a wisp of black mist entered their bodies from where they touched.

 Then it lay dormant inside them, awaiting orders.

 "Feel sorry."

 As Cong Yu spoke, he rested his chin on his hand, looked at the mother and daughter who seemed oblivious to what was happening, and announced, "From now on..."

 "Your bodies have become my property."

 ……

 Riko Nagashima: Huh?

 Nagashima Koki: Yay!

 "..." Is this child really okay?

 Chapter Fifty: A Strange Development in My Imagination

 Nagashima Koki, 11 years old, is a student, currently a fifth-grade student at Breeze Elementary School.

 But that's not the key point.

 The key issue is that this child has a somewhat strange personality... or rather, her terrible family environment has distorted her values.

 Nagashima Koki is somewhat morbid.

 This child knows what it means to "become someone else's property," and she can roughly understand what kind of strange plot it could lead to if interpreted in a worse way, but she is not afraid of it.

 "Great--"

 On the contrary, she would shout it out happily.

 Because she thought it was interesting and wouldn't cause things to get worse... unlike before when her mother was taken hostage by the weirdo.

 She found it all very interesting.

 Cong Yu spent some time explaining to the Nagashima mother and daughter the significance of the magic he had cast on them.

 Basically, the two of them couldn't explain to outsiders Cong Yu's true identity, nor could they reveal anything about the situation that would expose his identity.

 The identification depends on the subjective consciousness of both individuals.

 In other words, if someone hypnotizes, brainwashes, or even reads the memories of the two people, they can still obtain information related to Congyu.

 But what does it matter?

 Cong Yu has always been indifferent.

 Compared to this, Cong Yu was more concerned about Nagashima Koki's mental health.

 "Can I use magic? Can Brother Congyu teach me?"

 Saying this is Nagashima Koki, who is riding on Murasame's belly.
