Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　Compensation for workdays? Compensation for workdays doesn't exist.

　If there is a holiday, it will be given, and the holiday will last until Sunday. If the holiday takes up a rest day, there will be compensatory time off.

　At this time of year, there will be more adults playing pachinko and college students coming to the casino to broaden their horizons.

　However, this has nothing to do with the Rabbit Man.

　The rabbit man's job was simply to exchange chips and tokens, and to use his body to sit idly behind the front desk, just to please the customers' eyes.

　That's what they say, but apart from a few students, most of the customers don't even look at her; they're completely absorbed in the game of money.

　"yawn--"

　The rabbit man yawned as he watched the Heat.

　Looking out into the sky, I figured today would be another boring day.

　With this thought in mind, he lazily slumped onto the front desk, the heart-shaped piece of fabric on his chest being squeezed flat.

　Then I drifted off to sleep.

　The sound of her subordinate's voice brought her back to her senses...

　"Lord Rabbit Man, here is your package."

　"..." The rabbit-man opened his eyes sleepily, looked up at the large delivery box being held by the person next to him... He was somewhat confused.

　I shouldn't have bought anything.

　Even if he had bought it, he probably wouldn't have filled in the address here. He hesitated, then looked at the shipping information on the outside of the box, and after seeing something, his pupils suddenly contracted...

　Sender: Cong Yu

　"Did Lord Congyu send this over?!"

　The rabbit-man exclaimed in surprise, his ears twitched, and his mind began to race with thoughts... wondering if it was some kind of "suicide order" or something.

　Or is it a "letter of demotion"? No... I don't want that kind of thing!

　There must have been something that angered Lord Congyu.

　"No……"

　While the rabbit-like man was on the verge of tears, her eccentric henchman seemed quite interested.

　"It's a gift from Lord Congyu, Rabbit Man, please open it and take a look."

　At his underling's urging, the rabbit-man felt like he was going to his execution. His trembling hands picked up the safety box opener and he cautiously opened the box.

　Gift?

　He didn't expect it to be a gift... he just hoped it wouldn't be a sacrifice.

　Then, a bouquet of flowers appeared before the rabbit man's eyes.

　"..."

　"what?"

　The rabbit man was shocked. He jumped back like a real rabbit on the spot: "Flowers? Why is it a bouquet?!"

　Could it be...? No, no, no, that's impossible.

　But, but... Lady Murasame really did send flowers!!

　Why? Is it because you like my taste?!

　Her eccentric little brother looked inside curiously and said, "Lord Bunny, there's a cake and a greeting card... Is it your birthday today?"

　Birthday? Oh right, it's my birthday...

　The rabbit man was stunned...

　Indeed, today seems to be his birthday.

　"..." The strange man's life is too long, so long that he will experience birthdays countless times, possibly dozens or even hundreds of times.

　When time is stretched out excessively, each year seems to pass very quickly.

　Based on this, there aren't actually that many oddballs who care about their birthdays.

　However, the fact that Lord Congyu would give birthday gifts was not exactly a secret within the 22nd Group.

　However, those who receive gifts are usually officials, or strange people who are familiar with Lord Congyu because of some matter.

　The Rabbit man never imagined that he would one day receive a gift.

　It seems I misunderstood.

　With this in mind, the Rabbit Man relaxed, picked up the greeting card, and looked at the birthday wishes from Cong Yu.

　【My dear Rabbit Boy:】

　Happy birthday! I send you my sincerest wishes. Normally, I should send a card and a bouquet.

　However, I've recently noticed that flower prices have gone up, and their symbolic meanings are quite complicated and tiresome. I think it's better to use a cake instead. The flowers you receive might be the last time I use "flowers" as a birthday gift.

　[Furthermore, I've noticed you sometimes struggle with how unruly your hair can be. So, I've decided to give you two hair clips; I hope you like them.]

　May your life be filled with joy and happiness, your career be successful, and every day be fulfilling and meaningful.

　【Happy birthday to you.】

　"..." The rabbit man noticed the two hair clips attached to the greeting card. They seemed to have rabbit patterns and looked quite nice.

　As he read the greeting card, the rabbit boy reminisced about his childhood...

　He didn't truly celebrate his first birthday until he was fourteen or fifteen years old... By then, he had already joined the organization.

　Before that, his memories of every birthday were anything but "pleasant"... leaving him with only bad memories.

　The volatile, alcoholic father would randomly smash things in the house on random days, aimlessly throwing bottles at everything.

　Then the next day she offered him a hypocritical apology and promises.

　However, there was no improvement each time.

　There's also the awful mother who brings different men home to spend the night every time, and her noise disturbs the Rabbit Boy's studies and sleep.

　Later, unable to afford his tuition, he found a job at the casino... At that time, his job was odd jobs.

　Subsequently, the group became his second home.

　His relationship with his original family has also become extremely distant.

　It wasn't until he learned of his parents' deaths that the Rabbit Man truly felt free.

　I also had the idea of ​​celebrating my birthday.

　He was paid by the eccentric group, and he bought himself his first-ever cake, celebrating his birthday with newly acquainted friends.

　After that birthday, the Rabbit Man gradually had the leisure to eat a small cake every day, but he never did it again...

　The emotion of celebrating my birthday for the first time.

　"..."

　At this moment, he may have rediscovered that feeling.

　Thinking this, a gentle smile appeared on the rabbit man's face at some point, and he picked up a cake fork and scooped out a spoonful of cream.

　Put it in your mouth...

　The sweet feeling made me feel refreshed.

　"Great, Bunny Man! Waaaaah, I want a birthday present from Congyu-sama too... I'll definitely get a present when I get the title!"

　Hearing his younger brother's words, the rabbit-man nodded. He finally realized why everyone admired Lord Congyu so much.

　It's only natural that such a rain shower would inspire respect and admiration.

　"You definitely will, so keep it up..."

　Encouraging his subordinates in this way, the rabbit man reached up and gathered the stray strands of hair that were fluttering in front of his forehead, then secured them with a hair clip.

　He will treasure the other hair clip.

　I hope to receive another gift from Congyu next year.

　Chapter 113 Amusement Park?

　"Congyu-chan - hurry up!"

　Yaochuan Guang shouted this, turned her head and waved to Cong Yu and her group. She was wearing a pair of white sneakers and a simple sportswear outfit.

　She was clearly dressed to go out.

　And indeed, everyone was going out... During this sunny and bright holiday, Yaochuan Guang suddenly said that he wanted to go to the amusement park.

　Then, he shamelessly dragged Cong Yu, Lan Tianzhu, and Xiao Cui along.

　Okay... I'll go then.

　Anyway, Yaochuan Guang said she would pay for it.

　Cong Yu, who didn't have any extra arrangements, was still very accommodating to her, but did Yao Chuan Guang really need to be so excited?

　And the monthly exam is coming up right after the holiday, isn't this guy worried at all?

　Cong Yu remembered that Yao Chuanguang's grades were really not good.

　"..." Lan Tianzhu, who rarely goes out, wore a hat to shield herself from the sun. She looked at Yao Chuanguang walking excitedly ahead of her, speechless.

　"Like a wild dog that's broken free... Hikaru."

　As Lan Tianzhu said this, he poked Cong Yu's waist and suggested, "Cong Yu, why don't you get a collar and a leash to tie Xiao Guang up?"

　In response, Xiao Cui, whose hand was being held by Cong Yu, stuck out her tongue and said, "That's going too far, Sister Lan Tian."

　It seems there's still hope for this child.

　"If you're going to tie someone up, then tie me up!"

　Foreword retracted; this child is beyond saving.

　“…” Cong Yu sighed and gently shook her head: “Although Yao Chuan Guang gives people the feeling of a dog, does things that are dog-like, and has a dog-like personality, I sometimes call her a dog, but… she is not a real dog after all.”

　"So collars and stuff like that are not suitable... not suitable."

　Upon hearing Congyu's words, Yaochuan Guang, who was skipping and hopping ahead, immediately turned his head around resentfully: "Congyu-chan! There's no need to repeat yourself so many times!"

　Even though she has basically become desensitized to the fact that people call her a dog.

　You could even say they've come to terms with it.

　The dog is quite cute too.

　However, as a young girl, she would also feel ashamed to be repeatedly told this by Cong Yu, who was clearly doing it on purpose.

　In response, Cong Yu reached out and patted her head.

　Yao Chuan Guang was initially happily tilting his head to accept the compliment, but then, seeing Lan Tian Zhu and Xiao Cui secretly laughing, he realized something and immediately glared fiercely at Cong Yu: "Woof! I'll bite you!"

　Isn't this still a dog?

　"Um--"

　Cong Yu smiled and then defended herself, "I didn't mean that... I just thought you were cute."

　Hikaru Yokawa: "Oh."

　With an "oh," she turned her head and believed Cong Yu's words, readily accepting the head pats.

　She actually believed it!

　Lan Tianzhu was overjoyed, and the smile in his eyes almost couldn't be contained on his face... but he still tried his best to keep a blank expression.

　"Xiaoguang, I think... when Congyu said 'I didn't mean that,' there was no doubt that's what he meant."

　After Lan Tianzhu's reminder, Yaochuan Guang looked at Cong Yu suspiciously, his eyes filled with doubt: "..."

　Cong Yu: "..."

　After a brief silence, Cong Yu glanced at Lan Tianzhu, who had seen through him, and then immediately changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Yao Chuan Guang, how did you come up with the idea of ​​going to the amusement park?"

　Yao Chuanguang was quite self-righteous about this.

　"I can go wherever I want!"
