Chapter 151: Can I Take a Photo With You, Young Lady?
"Really nothing wrong?" Tsuchimikado Xia Mei was afraid Kamikawa Mitsuki was just making up an excuse so she wouldn't blame herself, hiding the fact that he had secretly fought against the Tsuchimikado family's barrier.
"I'm fine, I'm doing great."
A wave of fanning himself, and Kamikawa Mitsuki's head cleared a bit; he changed the subject:
"I'll send my sister a message, check if I turned off the gas."
He took out his phone, quickly typed, and sent the message.
Because they were close, and Kamikawa Mitsuki deliberately let Tsuchimikado Xia Mei see the message's contents—indeed it was a message to his sister asking about the gas—Tsuchimikado Xia Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
So I was overthinking it; Kamikawa-kun was just spacing out thinking about the gas.
"Then I'll open the window." As Tsuchimikado Xia Mei opened the window, she didn't forget to tell Kamikawa Mitsuki: "Kamikawa-kun, try these snacks, they're really good."
Before her words fell, she sneakily glanced left and right, surveying her surroundings.
"Let me tell you secretly, Master Abe also praised these snacks as delicious."
Netizens are powerful—last time with the saliva video, the opening shot only captured Abe Ontake Maro spitting saliva, and didn't film the conversation between Abe Ontake Maro and Tsuchimikado Kenji and the others; however, netizens, using geography, physics, mathematics, and other knowledge, investigated the trajectory of the flying saliva and clues like the location where it went airborne, and figured out that Abe Ontake Maro had spat at the Tsuchimikado residence.
Once the information was uncovered, the internet exploded.
As expected, the Tsuchimikado family is a supernatural clan, actually having ties with Abe Ontake Maro.
"Master Abe? You mean Abe Ontake Maro?" Kamikawa Mitsuki pretended not to know, picked up a snack, and tried it.
Just like last time, these snacks really were delicious.
He'd ask Tsuchimikado-san later where to buy these snacks, and get some to bring back for Chie.
Kamikawa Mitsuki unconsciously looked toward the apartment.
At this time Chie should have gone out with Mizushima and the others to the maid café, right?
"Kamikawa-kun, if you're looking at the records, I suggest you start with this one—it's the history of successive Tsuchimikado family heads compiled by my grandfather; the contents will help you when reviewing my family's records."
Then, Kamikawa Mitsuki took the book from Tsuchimikado Xia Mei.
It had to be said, the records collected by the Tsuchimikado family were rich in content; besides recording much Shinto knowledge, they also documented various events through the ages, as well as the history of the Tsuchimikado family heads.
Kamikawa Mitsuki was absorbed in reading, discussing with Tsuchimikado Xia Mei as he went.
……
Tokyo, Japan, Arakawa Ward, maid café.
Kamikawa Chie, along with Mizushima Iori and Komuro Meijiang, arrived at the maid café; they very generously ordered the café's top maid.
Girls coming to a maid café, though uncommon, wasn't rare.
Some came for the novelty, wanting to see what a maid café was like; some liked being served by maids; others were into yuri…
Therefore, when Kamikawa Chie and the others came to the maid café, they didn't receive strange looks—it was considered normal.
Moreover, many girls came to this maid café specifically for the top maid, because this café's top maid was currently making waves online; even talent agencies had specifically come seeking to sign the top maid.
"So pretty!"
The top maid that Kamikawa Chie's group of three saw made them cry out in unison.
It was certain—this was the most beautiful, most stunning woman they had ever seen; a graceful figure, a slender willow waist, a body without an ounce of excess flesh, a charming and bewitching face of peerless beauty, just like an ancient consort—bewitching and gorgeous.
"Hello, three masters, I'm called Likui, delighted to serve you."
Likui blinked, and with every smile and frown, even girls would be utterly enchanted.
"Wow, Young Lady, can I take a photo with you?" Mizushima Iori excitedly took out her phone.
The love of beauty is universal; for girls, if a girl is very pretty, jealousy arises, but if that girl is so beautiful there's no comparison, then there's no jealousy—only admiration and worship.
Mizushima Iori and the others were exactly like that.
In fact, the three of them weren't bad-looking, especially Kamikawa Chie and Mizushima Iori, who had celebrity-model-level faces; only their aura couldn't compare with Likui's.
Likui's aura was natural, as if bewitching beauty were innate, etched into her bones; every word and gesture radiated a gorgeous temperament.
Chie and the others were only middle schoolers; no matter how good their bearing, they couldn't possibly have Likui's level of bewitching aura.
"Me too, me too, I want a photo!" Komuro Meijiang was eager to try.
"Photos are fine." Likui gave a charming smile, her allure blooming, making the male and female customers in the café light up.
Immediately after.
Kamikawa Chie's group of three took turns taking photos with Likui.
"Sigh, Chie, it's really too bad your nii-san didn't come." Mizushima Iori posted the photo with Likui from her phone to her Moments, ready to show off to friends: "Missing out on meeting Likui and taking a photo together."
Komuro Meijiang chimed in:
"Hehe, Chie, if your nii-san knew the maid café had such a pretty big-sister maid, do you think he'd regret going to a classmate's house to hang out?"
"Very likely." Mizushima Iori glanced at Likui in the photo: "No, I think he'd definitely regret it, and be very surprised too—that a maid café actually had such a pretty maid."
"Stop talking nonsense, my nii-san wouldn't be so blinded by lust; I guess he wouldn't regret it, he'd just be surprised that the maid café we went to had such a pretty maid."
Kamikawa Chie had just finished speaking.
Ding.
The special-follow notification sound set on her phone rang.
It was a message from Kamikawa Mitsuki.
"Oh, just mentioned nii-san and he sends a message."
"Your nii-san sent a message? Chie, hurry and see what he sent—couldn't be asking if the maids are pretty, right? I suggest sending Likui's photo to your nii-san."
"Agreed, agreed; I think if nii-san got Likui's photo and saw how pretty she is, he'd definitely rush straight over from his friend's house."
Scolding Iori and the other for being troublemakers and talking nonsense, Kamikawa Chie picked up her phone to check the message.
Huh??
Kamikawa Mitsuki: 【Chie, did I turn off the gas when I left?】
Kamikawa Chie was dumbfounded.
Did you turn off the gas? What thingy, why is Nii-san suddenly asking about this?
Kamikawa Chie: 【Nii-san, the gas is on, because I can't smell any gas.】
One message was sent, then after a pause, Kamikawa Chie playfully sent a second one.
Kamikawa Chie: 【Nii-san, I've already arrived at the maid café. The young ladies at the maid café are so pretty, it's a shame you're not coming. Let me show you just how cute the maid young ladies are.】
Then Kamikawa Chie sent several more photos afterwards.
……
Japan, the Tsuchimikado family.
Kamikawa Mitsu and Tsuchimikado Xia Mei were chatting enthusiastically. After a long while, he noticed his phone was dead, asked for a charger to charge it, and upon opening it discovered that someone had sent him a message earlier.
He picked it up and looked — it was from Kamikawa Chie.
"This girl is still hoping I'll go to the maid café with her."
While he was thinking this, Tsuchimikado Xia Mei, who had been sitting close to Kamikawa Mitsu chatting, could see the message content even without leaning in or deliberately looking.
At this moment, Kamikawa Mitsu scrolled down through the messages and saw the photos Chie had sent.
Those were photos Chie had taken at the maid café — some of the café's environment, but mostly of the young ladies there.
One maid after another — cute, mature, all kinds of styles.
Tsuchimikado Xia Mei's beautiful eyes sparkled; her attention, like Kamikawa Chie's, was on the maid outfits.
However, Kamikawa Mitsu's attention was not on that.
His attention was entirely on the very last photo among those Chie had sent.
In that photo, Chie was in a group shot with a maid wearing a maid outfit with a seductive air; his gaze was fixed on the alluring maid.
Isn't that maid precisely Void Demon Li Kui!
The maid café Chie went to was actually the one where Li Kui was!
