Shirakawa Natsu's expression gradually became subtle: "Is it possible that you're not a werewolf, but..."
Feeling it would be impolite to say the word "dog," he instead asked, "So, what ability have you awakened?"
The fox spirit can even block out a person's five senses, and he was quite curious about what kind of powerful ability his brother could awaken.
Miyuki's expression changed, seemingly not expecting Shirakawa Natsu to be so unsurprised by her change, and even to ask such a question. After composing herself, she said, "I just awakened, so I probably haven't awakened my bloodline abilities yet."
Shirakawa Natsu's expression became subtle again, which meant that apart from her sensitive nose at the beginning, she had no other abilities.
"Wait a minute." Shirakawa Natsu waved her hand, got up, and quickly went out the door.
Miyuki wasn't worried that Shirakawa Natsu would harm her, and quietly sat on the sofa waiting.
Not long after, Shirakawa Natsumi pulled Kimura Momo, who had a big smile on her face, into the room.
He just asked Kimura Momo if it was convenient to reveal her identity. Kimura Momo was also very curious about encountering a new yokai and had no intention of hiding her identity.
Compared to Mikoto, who was terrified after just realizing he was a monster.
Kimura Momo, as a senior, knows more than anyone else. She has never encountered any other monsters, let alone vampires or exorcists.
Shirakawa Natsu quickly introduced Kimura Momo's identity to Mino Shiki.
Miyuki was also quite confused, and he understood why Shirakawa Natsu wasn't surprised at all.
Kimura Momo examined Minobu.
With her shielding her five senses, the two of them didn't have to worry about being overheard by Miyuki during their conversation.
"So, is my brother a wolf or a dog?" Shirakawa Natsu asked directly, as he was more concerned about this question.
"It's hard to say." Kimura Momo looked at Miyuki with a strange expression.
"It's hard to say what kind of ghost it is." Shirakawa Natsumi's lips twitched. Although wolves and dogs are close relatives, the differences are still quite obvious.
“Among her ancestors was a yokai,” Kimura Momo explained. “So her bloodline is mixed with yokai blood, but it’s been too many generations, so diluted that it’s impossible to tell whether it’s dog or wolf.”
"Why does she sound so weak?" Shirakawa Natsu looked at Miyuki with a strange expression. During her travels, after discovering that she could transform into animal ears, she might have fantasized about carrying some kind of destiny.
They also researched how to find companions or evade exorcists.
Suddenly I don't know what sadness is.
"Perhaps her descendants will become completely ordinary people." Kimura Momo shook her head, a hint of melancholy on her beautiful face.
Shirakawa Natsu was affected by her emotions and quickly understood the reason for Kimura Momo's downfall.
Unlike Mikoto, Kimura Momo is a true first-generation yokai.
The fact that Mikoto has yokai blood proves that there is no reproductive isolation between yokai and humans.
And her lineage was able to survive under such weak conditions.
This also proves that there is probably no profession like exorcist in this world.
This also means that monsters are truly a very rare existence.
Shirakawa Natsu couldn't help but hug Kimura Momo from behind: "Don't worry, I'll always be with you."
Speaking of which, he was also a monster, a yellow-haired minotaur monster.
This time, Kimura Momo didn't struggle and just leaned against him.
At that moment, Shirakawa Natsu suddenly felt that the feeling of the fox spirit being on the verge of running away had lessened.
Miyuki couldn't hear the two talking, but when she saw them suddenly hug each other, she couldn't help but frown.
After Shirakawa Natsu saw off Momoki, only Shirakawa Natsu and Minoki remained in the living room.
“That’s right, you’re a werewolf.” Shirakawa Natsu decided not to bring up the fact that she was a dog anymore, since dogs evolved from wolves anyway.
Her bloodline is so thin that calling her a werewolf wouldn't be wrong.
Mikoto's expression instantly turned serious, a look of someone burdened with a certain destiny, about to save the world.
Shirakawa Natsumi thinks that her brother is very handsome when he's serious, but he has a funny personality inside. Maybe his ancestors were huskies.
He quickly coughed twice and said, "But don't worry about exorcists. It's the 21st century now, and that kind of profession has long disappeared."
"Then what should I do?" Miyuki asked, frowning.
"Just live your life as usual." Shirakawa Natsu shrugged. A sensitive nose and sharp teeth don't seem to be of much use in modern society.
Miyuki was stunned for a moment, then sat on the sofa without saying a word for a long time, her expression quite subtle.
Shirakawa Natsu suddenly felt sorry for her brother, so she went up and patted him on the shoulder: "Why don't you take a year off from school and come with me? I'll pay you a salary."
His Tauren quest would be much easier to complete if he had his brothers' help.
He's been slacking off a lot lately, but he still earns a good amount from his writing, enough to pay Miyuki's salary.
Miyu looked at him suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
She really had nothing to do.
That night, the two went back to their respective rooms to sleep, and their original close brotherly relationship was restored.
The next day, Shirakawa Natsu made an appointment with Arishima Ryoko, and the two met at a coffee shop.
“This is my assistant, Miyuki,” Shirakawa Natsu introduced. “As a manga artist, having an assistant is perfectly reasonable.”
"Hello, Ms. Minoko." Ryoko Arishima bowed to Minoko.
Seeing such a handsome and beautiful man, she couldn't help but take a second look.
“I already spoke with Jiang Enhui yesterday,” Shirakawa Natsu said bluntly. “She and Mukai Yu are just ordinary friends.”
Having her boyfriend stolen will only trigger her rebellious side; what she really wants is for someone else to give up on her.
It's necessary to make her believe that Mukai Yu likes Jiang Enhui, but Jiang Enhui doesn't like Mukai Yu.
"Is...is that so?" Ryoko Arishima seemed restrained in her speech because of Yuminoku's presence.
But since she was someone he liked, he shook his head, suppressing his embarrassment: "But I can sense that between them, it seems... it seems."
Shirakawa Natsumi smiled, having been waiting for these words: "If Ms. Ryoko doesn't believe me, she can see for herself."
Chapter 189 Suddenly blushing
Miyuki doesn't have the habit of wearing a bra. Her bust size is not large (C), but it's firm enough. When she wears only a T-shirt, her nipples are visible.
When she goes out, she wears a leather jacket over her clothes, leaving it unbuttoned so that it covers both sides of her chest.
After arriving at the coffee shop with Shirakawa Natsu, she didn't speak first, listening to their conversation with a cool and aloof expression.
Shirakawa Natsu and Arishima Ryoko were discussing Mukai Yu's affairs, which was quite private.
But Miyuki's presence was too strong, and the atmosphere between the three of them just felt off.
Ryoko Arishima lowered her head, her voice growing softer and softer, not daring to look at either Miyuki or Natsu Shirakawa.
Like a little rabbit in front of a big bad wolf.
Shirakawa Natsumi began to sense that something was wrong. She turned to look at Miyuki, who was holding a cigarette between two fingers with her arm on the table, a position that caused one side of her jacket to be open.
The dot on the right chest of the T-shirt was clearly visible.
"Ahem." Shirakawa Natsu coughed at her, signaling her to watch her posture, as she was making the little girl shy.
Miyuki, however, seemed oblivious. Instead, she turned to look at him, her handsome brows furrowed slightly, giving him a "what are you looking at me for?" look.
"..." Shirakawa Natsumi was speechless. Her bloodline probably contained husky blood.
They were already starting to regret bringing Mikoto to help; the guy's presence was too strong.
To complete the system task, you need to make Ryoko Arishima give up on Yu Mukai.
However, you can't provoke her rebellious side. If you make her think that Jiang Enhui also likes Xiang Jingyu, she will be even more reluctant to part with Xiang Jingyu.
Yu Mukai likes everyone and doesn't cherish the women who love him, but his "central air conditioning" personality, coupled with his handsome looks, is really attractive to girls.
Shirakawa Natsu glanced at the time on her phone; it was almost time.
He reached into his bag, pulled out his notebook, opened it, and placed it on the table: "Jiang Enhui felt that a stalker had entered her house, so she asked me to install a camera in her living room. Whenever you have time, turn it on and check if there's anything unusual in her house."
"Let's check if the camera is working properly." Bai Chuanxia said, opening the desktop software. A video playback window immediately popped up on the screen, showing the scene in Jiang Enhui's living room.
Moreover, both Yutaka Mukai and Eunhye Kang were in the shot.
Jiang Enhui held a glass of red wine in her hand, sipping it slowly, while Xiang Jingyu sat on the sofa next to her, chatting and laughing.
Shirakawa Natsu feigned surprise and said, "What a coincidence."
After saying that, he turned to look at Ryoko Arishima and smiled, "Suspicion often comes from wild thoughts and imagination. Miss Ryoko, seeing it with your own eyes will dispel your concerns."
Ryoko Arishima stared intently at the screen. The two sitting together hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "No... this won't do. Wouldn't this be an invasion of privacy?"
Shirakawa Natsumi's lips twitched. She noticed that Shirakawa Natsumi's eyes were glued to the screen as she spoke. She explained, "It's alright. I've already gotten Ms. Jiang Enhui's permission. She asked me to take a look at the screen whenever I have time."
His reasoning was actually quite far-fetched, but that's not important.
All Ryoko Arishima needed was a reason to spy on him with a clear conscience.
The room wasn't big, but after turning up the computer volume, the two people's voices could be clearly heard coming from the computer.
Ordinary cameras certainly don't have this function, so Shirakawa Natsu installed a listening device under the coffee table specifically to achieve this effect.
The camera happened to capture them sitting together and talking, which was of course because it was arranged in advance with Kang Eun-hye.
At this time, she would invite Yu Mukai to sit on the sofa and drink with her.
Unaware of anything, Mukai Yu sat on the sofa, his gaze occasionally drifting towards Jiang Enhui.
The two had known each other for a little over a week, and this was the first time Jiang Enhui had shown a side of herself that wasn't so much that of a strong woman.
"Have you seen the movie 'The One He Loves Is Me'?" Jiang Enhui asked casually, her legs crossed, which seemed out of place with her image as a strong career woman. "The female lead steals the male lead away from her female boss at work."
"Hmm." Yu Mukai felt that Jiang Enhui today was not as strong and capable as usual, but rather more gentle.
Shirakawa Natsumi's lips twitched in front of the screen. He seemed to know why Mukai Yu had fallen for him so quickly.
When Jiang Enhui gets serious, she looks a lot like a strong boss. Isn't she just a carbon copy of Aunt Ma Fei?
He didn't know whether he should criticize Mukai Yu for his single-mindedness.
"In most people's minds, a domineering and unapproachable female boss should be placed in the villain's position." Jiang Enhui smiled and took a sip of her wine: "Does she love the male lead less than the female lead?"
"Hmph." Yu Mukai chuckled dryly, unsure how to respond.
“It’s just because she’s a supporting actress.” Jiang Enhui didn’t wait for his reply and continued, “Supporting actresses don’t get the spotlight. As a supporting actress, you’re not the subject of the camera. That’s an ironclad rule. Supporting actresses can only watch their loved ones with others.”
Yu Mukai was taken aback and asked, "Do you mean the movie?"
“No.” Jiang Enhui shook her head: “It’s life.”
She took a sip of her drink and looked out the window: "I've always dreamed of a certain man..."
She stopped there and didn't continue.
The two fell into a brief silence.
Shirakawa Natsu was stunned. He knew that the man Jiang Enhui was talking about was Xia Ye, but given her calculating nature, she didn't seem like the type to be heartbroken over Xia Ye.
He quickly noticed on the screen that Yu Mukai seemed to be lost in some kind of memory.
Suddenly realizing what had happened, Jiang Enhui knew that she had taken advantage of the boss that Xiang Jingyu admired.
Jiang Enhui wasn't talking about herself at all; she was clearly trying to make Mukai Yu feel a sense of identification, to make him feel that the two of them were supporting characters.
By using these commonalities, the huge differences in age, occupation, nationality, and social status between the two can be blurred without leaving a trace.
"Wow." Shirakawa Natsu exclaimed in surprise, Jiang Enhui's level was too high.
Looking at Ryoko Arishima again, she was still staring at the screen, completely unaware of Kang Eunhye's scheme.
She then turned to look at the Sea King, Miyuki, but after glancing at the screen twice, she lost interest and was now looking out the window with a serious expression.
She doesn't need any tricks to pick up women; her face is all she needs.
Shirakawa Natsu was curious about what the brothers were looking at so seriously. Following her gaze, she saw two small dogs fighting at the other end of the street outside the French windows.
"..." Shirakawa Natsu was speechless. When she got home, she would definitely tell her not to look at this kind of thing with such a serious expression.
On screen, Kang Eun-hye leans back on the sofa, smiling, "I don't know when I'll get a chance to appear on screen. I hope I won't be a supporting character in my next relationship."
Yu Mukai seemed to snap out of his reverie, looked at Kang Eun-hye, and suddenly said, "Actually, you can think of it this way: there's no need to compete with the female lead for the male lead, who belongs to someone else. Looking back, there's a supporting character who's quietly waiting for you."
