"Okay, I think you have a good appetite. Would you like some dessert?"
"If possible... I'd like to try ice cream?"
"Ok."
Just as Shiraha was about to turn and leave, he heard Kirishima Touka softly say, "Tamago... is tamagoyaki okay?"
Bai Yu paused for a moment, then went straight to the kitchen without saying a word. He was the second person to order tamagoyaki; the first was Natsume.
As Kirishima Touka watched Shiraha leave, she slumped into a chair, seemingly exhausted. Tamagoyaki was a special dish for her because her friend had prepared it in her bento box. Although there were other dishes, it was tamagoyaki that she was very interested in and the only one whose name she remembered.
She had never known what tamagoyaki tasted like, but seeing how much she liked it and how delicate it looked, Kirishima Touka wanted to try it.
Shinononozuka said with a smile, "Touka, since you've participated in this experiment and come here, you'll be staying here for a long time to come. This is for the convenience of the research and also for your safety."
"Sister Quan has already told me about this, and I have already completed the leave of absence with the school."
Shinononozuka smiled and said, "That's great! But you don't need to cooperate with anything all the time, Touka. You're completely free to go out shopping or whatever, it's up to you."
"this...."
"And another thing, since you're here, you can just stay at the inn. We all stay at the inn. After we've eaten, I'll take you to your room. Every room has the same layout and decoration. Tomorrow is the weekend, so I'll take you to buy some daily necessities."
Touka Kirishima hesitated for a moment, then quickly said, "I can do it myself, no need to trouble yourself..."
"It's not a hassle at all. My family members are usually idle, not working or going to school, so it's not a hassle at all. Besides, this way I can show you around the area, and if it's on the way, I can also introduce you to my family."
Having come this far, Kirishima Touka had no choice but to express her gratitude. But then she was completely dumbfounded. Shinonono Tsuka smiled and said, "Well then! Now it's time to tell you about the arrangements for your life here!"
"Huh? What I was saying earlier...?"
“Those aren’t living arrangements, um… the research will definitely last for several months or even years, so, Xiao Dongxiang, you’ll have to live here. But you’re still a student and you love going to school, so just focus on your studies here!”
"study?!"
A flicker of interest crossed Kirishima Touka's eyes, and Lucifer chuckled and said, "There are plenty of schools here. Right now, there are many sisters studying at different schools, and some sisters even run their own schools. So you have a lot of choices, but first you can rule out Hyakkaou and Totsuki."
Kirishima Touka blinked, about to say something, when she heard Lucifer say, "Hyakkao is a paradise for madmen. Although that school is managed by your own sisters, you definitely won't be able to study in peace. Totsuki is a culinary academy. Although you can take the college entrance exam, it's mainly about cooking, plus the dropout rate is extremely high."
Upon hearing this, Hinami Aoi immediately laughed and said, "Then it's definitely Katagiri! There are the most people from Katagiri, we're all in Katagiri, the school atmosphere is the best and it's very peaceful, and Benio-nee is the student council president. Whether it's adapting to school or adapting to home, Katagiri is definitely the best!"
"Agreed!" by Tagawa Kaimu and Katagiri Toto
Yuno Gasai whispered, "The learning atmosphere at Shuchiin is great, and with Gin and me there, as well as Fujiwara and the others, it's the best school. Plus, Touka and I have a connection, so I came to Shuchiin and joined the Friends Club."
Kasugano Sora slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "No way! You Katagiri school already has so many students! And you're still trying to steal them?! Our Imperial Sakura! The best girls' school in all of Japan! The school spirit is great too! And everyone there is so innocent! Shizuka-nee and Chihiro-nee are there! And it's run by Shion-nee!"
"Aunt Yasha is also in the high school! And Hibiki and the others too! Her life is super exciting! Mashiro will definitely like Touka-neechan! And Touka-neechan has just recovered, so she doesn't seem to be good at dealing with those clumsy boys! When she goes to Katagiri and Shuchiin, they'll either be discussing business and politics or someone will definitely be pursuing Touka-neechan!"
"The academic pressure at Shuchiin Academy is immense! Our Imperial Sakura Academy can barely scrape together enough people for the knowledge competition, let alone compete for students?! I'm the only one from Imperial Sakura! Nobody comes to school with me! Touka-neechan has to come to Imperial Sakura!"
"Katagiri!"xn
"Royal Cherry Blossom!"

Chapter 219 Kirishima Touka is in a panic, seeking help from the girls (Please subscribe~)
The shop was incredibly lively at this moment. Yakumo Yukari and the others were no longer sleepy and started watching the show and fanning themselves. Shinonono Tsukasa even pulled out two latte art pieces from somewhere and shouted encouragement.
The reason, of course, was to snatch Kirishima Touka. Kirishima Touka was somewhat flustered. She was already very happy to suddenly become like a normal human. She was not disliked and was taken care of so much that she could go to school, which was a pleasant surprise. Now, suddenly, people were fighting over where she was going.
This left Kirishima Touka completely at a loss, as she didn't even know the names of these people! She could only reach out her hands here and try to say something there. She had never been this flustered even when dealing with ghouls outside.
At that moment, Kasugano Sora, with one foot on a stool and holding her phone in one hand, shouted, "Come to Sumeragi Sakura!~"
Kitagawa Kaimu, standing on a chair with a defiant look on her face, shouted, "What's wrong with Katagiri?!"
"Exactly!"
"Go! Go!"
Yuuko Ichihara said with a smile, "Go for it! Sora! Asuna! Show some spirit! I think Hyotei and Teitan are pretty good too!"
"That's right!"
Yuno Gasai, on the other hand, chose to secretly go to the side of Touka Kirishima, who looked flustered, while the argument was raging on.
Yuno Gasai smiled and said, holding Touka Kirishima's hand, "Touka-neechan, since you love studying so much, you must need the best learning and educational environment. Shuchiin is the best school, with the highest college entrance rate. Moreover, there are many upperclassmen and underclassmen at Shuchiin who are familiar with your family."
"So, Touka-neechan, let's choose Chiin Academy together, then we can go to school together... Ah!"
Before Yuno Gasai could finish speaking, she was shoved aside. Before Touka Kirishima could even react, her hand was grabbed by Kaimu Kitagawa, who said irritably, "Yuno! Don't even think about sneaking in! Touka-nee! Come here, Katagiri!"
"Really! Look, we're all in Katagiri. Katagiri has the best school spirit. You probably don't want to be disturbed, so Katagiri is perfect! Plus, the student council president in Katagiri is like a sister to us. It's so lively in Katagiri!"
Aoi Hinami nodded and said, "That's right, that's exactly it. Katagiri is definitely a great choice! Although it doesn't have the teaching staff of Shuchiin University, and it's not the richest school, it focuses on a relaxed and enjoyable campus learning life."
Before Yoshikawa Yuki could speak, Kasugano Sora ran over with her phone in hand, pulling Kirishima Touka along and saying, "Touka-neechan, come to Royal Sakura! Royal Sakura is all girls! And some of my family's sisters are teachers at Royal Sakura, some are very close to my family, and Royal Sakura has a better school atmosphere! Everyone is so innocent!"
"I know Katagiri! I used to be a student there. The boys in Katagiri are outrageous! They'll chase after you and confess their feelings, especially to a girl like you who looks so aloof, Touka-neechan. If you reject them a few times, you'll definitely get annoyed. Then they'll pester you just to see your impatient expression when you reject them!"
"This is a true story! I'm like that! And some people even deliberately want to be scolded or verbally attacked! Besides, the principal of Huangying School is her own sister! The student council president is the principal's sister! They're also family members she knows very well! Everyone is very nice! Huangying School is also of very high quality!"
"I...."
"Xiao Qiong! That's because you're an exception! Why are we fine?!"
"Because we have different styles, okay! And everyone knows you have fiancés! Touka-neechan and I are the same! We're both the kind of people who don't like being bothered by others! Absolutely! And Touka-neechan is also very beautiful! Her aloof persona is a big plus, okay!"
"That's a completely different matter! With us by your side, who would dare to pursue Touka?!"
Kasugano Sora narrowed her eyes and tapped her phone. The next moment, she saw that it was Kanadein Shion, who was wearing a face mask and chatting with Hiratsuka Shizuka and the others. She said in an annoyed tone, "Sora, you brat, calling us so late, are you trying to skip class again?"
"Sister Ziyin! Help! Someone needs to be rescued!"
"Huh?" x4
Hiratsuka Shizuka and the others also looked over. Kasugano Sora quickly sent the message she had edited earlier to Soryuin Shion. Soryuin Shion looked at it, and then looked at Kirishima Touka, who was still being courted by Asuna. She threw the orange in her hand aside and shouted, "Asuna! Don't go too far! We, the Imperial Sakura, want little Touka!"
"Ziyin-nee! You're the one who's going too far! Touka is the most suitable person to go to Katagiri!"
"Then what's wrong with my Huangying! Xiao Dongxiang is perfectly fine whether she goes to the first or second year of high school, or even the third year. She knows all the teachers and her family very well!"
"Exactly! How many people do you Katagiri players have already?! For us at Sakura Royale, putting together a competitive team is like going on a picnic, and you're still trying to poach players?!"
Although Hiratsuka Shizuka and Sengoku Chihiro didn't know what had happened, Kirishima Touka was definitely a good girl, and she was even trying to recruit students for her own school, so they had to work hard on it.
Hinami Aoi glanced at Kasugano Sora, who was all smiles, and snorted, "Fine, fine! So that's how it is? Find outside help! I can do that too!"
As Hinami Aoi spoke, she also made a video call. On the other end of the line, Yonomori Benio, who was wearing glasses and revising a document, looked puzzled and said, "Eh? Aoi? Why are you calling me so late? Oh, it's so lively here. Shion-nee? What are you doing here? Are you having a meeting?"
Hinami Aoi quickly edited the message and sent it to Yonomori Benio. The next moment, Yonomori Benio raised an eyebrow and said, "Shion-nee, that's not very fair of you. You're just stealing people so directly!"
"Kenio! You want to steal her?! Your Katagiri team can rival Shuchiin's! And you still want to steal her?!"
"Who wouldn't want a good child? Sister Ziyin, there are many Katagiri people in the family. Choosing Katagiri can help them integrate into the family and life. Isn't that great!"
"Exactly!"
Yuno Gasai opened her mouth but only puffed out her cheeks. She couldn't win. Kaguya Shinomiya was useless. Shuchiin Academy didn't have a student council president, and she didn't know the principal. She couldn't even find an outside help.
At first, Kirishima Touka tried to break up the fight between the two sides, but later she ended up having both arms held by Kasugano Sora and the others. Everyone was arguing about which school they should go to, while Lucifer and the others were drinking tea, eating snacks, and watching the show while cheering them on. Who could stand that? Someone save this introverted girl!
"So! Touka!"
"Sister Dongxiang!"
Which one do you choose?!
"I...."

Chapter 220 Kirishima Touka's Answer, Delicious Tamagoyaki (Please Subscribe~)
Lucifer and the others were delighted, practically ready to grab a handful of melon seeds and eat as they watched, while Kirishima Touka was now in a panic, wondering what would happen if she made the wrong choice.
Finally, under the expectant gazes of Kasugano Sora and the others, Kirishima Touka breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you all for the invitation. I'm not a particularly outstanding student, and I've only just arrived and am not familiar with the school yet, so I'm sorry, I cannot give a definite answer at the moment..."
Everyone exchanged glances and nodded. Yoru no Mori said with a smile, "Touka, I know what you're thinking. You deserve it. You don't need to worry so much. Once you're here, you're family. You don't have to think of yourself as an outsider."
Soryuin Shion nodded and said, "That's right. And we're not trying to win you over because we think you're a particularly good student. It's just that you're a very worthy child, and we really want to get to know you. Don't worry, no one will blame you for choosing any school."
"You can relax and have dinner later. Then I'll have Shu take you to your room, wash up, and go to bed early. Tomorrow we'll go buy some daily necessities and maybe visit some schools. You don't necessarily have to go to school on Monday."
Kobayashi Rindou also came over and said with a smile, "The quarterfinals of Totsuki Culinary Academy start on Monday. Touka, you can go and watch the matches. After they're over, we'll take you to visit these schools. It doesn't matter when you go to register, Monday to Friday, since it's just the beginning of the semester. Yuno and the others will tutor you on your studies."
Kirishima Touka's eyes were slightly red. She simply bowed and whispered a thank you. Akane Kubo Momo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's finally over. Momoko hasn't seen such a lively argument in a long time. But, there are two things."
"Hmm?"
"First, since Xiao Dongxiang arrived, no one has introduced themselves yet. Xiao Dongxiang probably has a lot of things she wants to know, and even if she wants to say something, she doesn't know what to call her."
"That's right!" xn
"Secondly...that's all I'm saying. Personally, I think Otonokizaka, Totsuki, and Hyakkaou can be ruled out. Also, to prevent Sonoko and Kirari from arguing, it's better to wait until Touka has decided on a school before telling them."
"Agree!"
Everyone shouted in unison, and Lucifer waved his hand. In an instant, Kirishima Touka's mind was filled with memories of the shop, Shiraha, and Lucifer. Kirishima Touka was completely terrified. Was this a joke? A god? A demon?!
And she finally understood what Yuno Gasai meant by "resonance" earlier. Yuno Gasai had also teetered on the brink of collapse, but looking at Yuno Gasai, her little face slightly puffed up, clearly annoyed at not being able to find outside help, this goddess... is kind of cute.
Soryuin Shion applied another face mask; she had thrown away the previous one in her excitement over snatching someone. Soryuin Shion casually said, "Sora, if Touka comes to see Sakura, ask Akemi and the others to accompany her for a stroll. You'll get a day off."
"Okay!"
After Yonomori Benio and Souin Shion hung up the phone, Kasugano Sora and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Lucifer and the others also applauded. Brilliant, truly brilliant.
Kirishima Touka snapped out of her daze and stared blankly at Takatsuki Sen, who was propping her face up with her hand and watching intently. Takatsuki Sen paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "You were scared, weren't you? But it's all true."
"It feels like a dream..."
Just then, footsteps were heard. It was Shiraha. Shiraha first put out the porridge and wontons for Yakumo Yukari and the others, and then Kirishima Touka and Takatsuki Sen arrived.
"It seems that Ms. Kirishima was frightened."
"Manager Shirayu... this isn't a matter of being frightened, it's that something is beyond your comprehension..."
"Now that you're here, you don't have to act like an outsider. Just do what you like and want to do. Although I don't know how much a ghoul can eat, since you have an extra organ, your metabolism should be more active, and your appetite should be better."
"However, since ghouls have only ever eaten meat and never get any vegetables or seafood, they are severely lacking in many nutrients. Plus, since they have just been able to eat human food, they will be very curious about many dishes. So, I have prepared a larger quantity of dishes for you, but each portion is not particularly large."
Touka Kirishima was stunned for a moment, and before she could speak, she saw Shiraha bring out dish after dish, all of which were things Touka Kirishima had never seen before, or rather, she had only seen the shapes of these ingredients in books. As for the taste...
"Pineapple sweet and sour pork, a sweet and sour flavor; stuffed bitter melon, a slightly bitter flavor; seafood spicy hot pot, spicy but the spiciness is more of a pain; Shanghai-style stir-fried vegetables, just plain stir-fried vegetables, I added some other vegetables, considering you might eat a lot, so this is a plum juice to aid digestion..."
"Because soup will fill you up a bit, I didn't prepare any for you. I almost forgot about this..."
As Bai Yu spoke, he took out a small plate from the side, on which were three or four neatly cut and steaming tamagoyaki. Kirishima Touka looked at the tamagoyaki in front of her. To be honest, since she became able to eat normal human food, she found that human dishes, which she was not interested in before, now made her drool just by smelling and looking at them.
"Thank you, Manager Baiyu..."
Shiraha simply nodded with a slight smile, then brought out a plate of sliced apples and a steaming cup of coffee. Takatsuki Sen paused for a moment, then said, "Manager Shiraha, what's this...?"
"For ghouls, this is probably the best thing to warm up besides hot water."
"Heh... Store Manager Shiraha is really considerate."
Enjoy your meal.
After Bai Yu finished speaking, he turned and left. Takatsuki Sen picked up a piece of apple with a fork and said with a smile, "Touka, although I've never eaten human food, it seems that it tastes bad when it gets cold."
Kirishima Touka paused for a moment before picking up her chopsticks. Looking at the fragrant and hot dishes in front of her, she found even the white rice particularly appetizing.
However, Touka Kirishima went straight for the tamagoyaki. The soft texture came through the chopsticks and was brought to her lips. Touka Kirishima opened her mouth, gritted her teeth, her pupils trembled slightly, and her fingers were shaking slightly. Finally, as if she had made a major decision, Touka Kirishima opened her mouth, closed her eyes, and put the tamagoyaki into her mouth.
Silence, and more silence...
After a long while, a tear slid down her cheek, and she whispered, "So this is what it tastes like... Is this what this dish is supposed to taste and feel like... Ah..."
Touka Kirishima tilted her head back, a slight smile on her face that made even Izumi Takatsuki pause for a moment, and said softly, "It's delicious..."
Takatsuki Sen chuckled softly, ate a piece of apple, and said quietly, "Really? That's certainly some happy and exciting news..."

At this moment, Kirishima Touka felt that she had already known the meaning of happiness. She was completely unlike her usual aloof self, and just held her rice bowl and chopsticks without any intention of stopping for a moment.
