"Dongxiang, you really gave your mother a pleasant surprise."
Mrs. Tohsaka looked at her daughter with a complicated expression.
No, it has nothing to do with me. Mira was probably helping me for Xiaoxiao's sake.
However, this also relieved her.
“It’s better not to marry him. That child looks like he has no opinions of his own and is completely suppressed by his father. He’s not a good husband candidate,” Mrs. Tohsaka shook her head. “Touka, you won’t have a good life if you marry him.”
She sees things clearly.
"However, you can bring your sweetheart home when you have time, so your mother can see what kind of person can make my daughter fall in love. If you're willing, Touka, you can get married after graduation too~."
Touka Tohsaka blushed and her heart pounded at her mother's teasing, "Marriage and all that..."
That guy has no idea how many girls he'll marry.
The scene from last night once again surfaced in Tosaka-senpai's mind.
She felt a pang of sadness.
Chapter Forty-Three: The Power of Miracles
Mu Xiaoxiao was awakened by a strange feeling.
Inside the wallpaper room, he opened his eyes and saw Xiao Xiao busy with something, her little head bobbing up and down, her black hair scattered around her. Mu Xiaoxiao stared in disbelief, then took a deep breath.
The bullet was fired.
"Ugh."
Yoshida smiled, raised her head, licked her lips, swallowed it all, and then smiled sweetly, "Good morning, Xiaoxiao."
"Good morning, is this some new wake-up service?"
"Little one doesn't like it?" Yoshida smiled, her eyes seemingly sparkling with hearts as she curiously grabbed the bag and played with it. "I saw that you must be feeling uncomfortable standing up straight all the time, so I wanted to help you relieve the discomfort."
"Imperial service, of course it's comfortable," Mu Xiaoxiao sighed, "but that innocent and shy smile has degenerated into the naive girl she is today, it's hard to explain."
Yoshida blinked and said, "I don't care. So what if she's a little bit slutty? As long as I like her a little bit, that's fine."
As she spoke, the girl climbed onto Mu Xiaoxiao's body.
Soon, morning exercise began to take place in the room.
It was a new day. Mu Xiaoxiao stood under the cherry blossom tree in the old school building with her hands on her hips, feeling refreshed. Yoshida Xiao finished cleaning the room and came to the classroom with Mu Xiaoxiao.
"Good morning, Minako, hasn't Izumi arrived yet?" she greeted her friend.
"No, uh, good morning, Mu-kun," Sanada Minako waved to Mu Xiaoxiao.
Mu Xiaoxiao nodded in response. Just as she sat down in her seat, Sakurazawa Yuman ran over to greet her. Not long after, Nanao Akane and Hiiragi Kanna appeared. This originally inconspicuous corner has now become the center of attention.
The fat pig sitting in front felt it the most. He saw one pretty girl after another greeting and talking to him. God knows how jealous and envious he was, but under Mu Xiaoxiao's tyranny, he dared not say anything.
They didn't even dare to look at it.
A moment later, Nogami Izumi walked in. The hot young lady didn't go back to her seat, but walked straight towards Mu Xiaoxiao. Tazaki panicked, thinking that she was coming to cause trouble for him, but when he found her standing next to Mu Xiaoxiao, he was overjoyed.
Are they trying to cause him trouble?
"Hey, Mu Xiaoxiao, that woman beat us to it again."
"Huh? What?"
"What you told me yesterday!" Nogami Izumi came to Mu Xiaoxiao's side and muttered, "Although I don't like Tohsaka, I still did what you asked me to do. What's up with that woman? I heard she helped the Tohsaka family pay off their debts."
"Mira again? Okay, I get it."
Nogami Izumi slightly raised her chin. "Let's make this clear first. Although I was beaten to it, I did contribute, so you can't take that camera back."
"So you came here just for the camera? So you know what it's for?"
Nogami Izumi immediately pulled a camera out of her bag. "Of course, this thing is surprisingly interesting! Mu Xiaoxiao, hehe, let me take a few pictures of you, and you fat pig! Stand up!!!"
Fatty almost ground his teeth to powder. This woman! Why does she have to bully me like this?! She talks to that guy nicely on the other hand, you bastard!!
Well, I just thought about it in my mind.
Click click—
"Haha," Quan laughed arrogantly after taking the photos, "Mu Xiaoxiao, so you and Fatty are the same kind of people, huh? Ahahahaha!"
In the photo, neither Mu Xiaoxiao, who is sitting, nor Tian Qi, who is standing, have faces. This camera only takes pictures of handsome men and beautiful women. Nogami Izumi laughed, "It can perfectly capture the face of this young lady."
Mu Xiaoxiao's forehead creased, and she grabbed the camera with a snap. A ferocious smile appeared on her lips as she said to it, "I'll give you one more chance, Quan, take another picture!"
A few minutes later, Nogami Izumi returned to her seat, staring blankly at the photo. Mu Xiaoxiao's face was captured in the picture, while Fatty remained as usual.
She glanced back at Mu Xiaoxiao, who was humming a tune, her expression strange, as if threatening the camera. "I wonder if he has anything else interesting on him."
When Touka Tohsaka arrived at the rooftop, it was deserted.
That's normal; school rules don't allow students to go to the rooftop. But she knew Mu Xiaoxiao was a willful person and wouldn't care about such things.
It was precisely because he was there that I was able to stop myself from acting recklessly last time.
Touka Tohsaka was lost in memories, a smile playing on her lips. Although this wasn't the first place she had met Mu Xiaoxiao, it still left her with many interesting and profound memories.
With her chin resting on her hands, she thought about her mother's teasing words and what had happened that morning, and her heart rate gradually became erratic.
"You specifically asked me to come here, surely you don't want to come again, right? Dong Xiang..." Mu Xiaoxiao's figure appeared at the door.
“I already said I wouldn’t do that. I’m here today to thank you,” Touka Tohsaka patted the seat next to her, gesturing for him to sit there. Her usually cold and beautiful face became increasingly gentle. “Mira helped us pay off our debts, but I know she only helped me because of you, Xiaoxiao.”
"I know, maybe she just sees you as a friend, it has nothing to do with me," I just asked Izumi for help.
"Even so, I still want to thank you," Touka Tohsaka said, looking up at the gloomy sky, but in a good mood. "Mira-neechan is right, it's really lucky to have met you~".
"Oh?"
She continued, "A few guests came to my house this morning. They are old acquaintances of the Tosaka family, and there was also a childhood friend I knew when I was little, but I don't have any feelings for him, and my memory of him is very vague."
After she finished speaking, her cheeks burned, and she didn't know why she had to explain.
“They can help me, but on the condition that I marry into the Takahara family.”
"Marriage?"
"Yes, it's not because of you, little one, that it's already over."
After Touka Tohsaka finished speaking, she was in a daze for a moment, and had a very strange feeling, as if she had seen the future and it seemed that her destiny had been changed and her future had been altered.
My life has changed.
"Oh, then I am truly guilty."
Touka Tohsaka snapped out of her daze and rolled her eyes at him. "I can understand why Akane and the others think you're like an omnipotent god, able to see through girls' hearts and grant their wishes..."
"I'm not that amazing; at least I haven't been able to fulfill your wish."
"You've already achieved it. You've changed me, all because of you..."
Mu Xiaoxiao saw the light in the girl's eyes, and he also saw her lean her head against his shoulder. Mu Xiaoxiao did not refuse such an ambiguous gesture, but he glanced at the girl's blank wish list and suddenly spoke.
"Um, I can't really see through your heart, Touka."
He blinked. "I really don't know what you want?"
Touka Tohsaka tilted her head. "You'll give me anything I want?"
"I can help you as long as it's not excessive..."
"Then I want that card."
"..."
She didn't mention the marriage certificate, but in her eyes, it seemed to be the marriage certificate. "Xiaoxiao, you said you would help me, you won't go back on your word, will you?"
Mu Xiaoxiao glanced at the blank wish list, her lips twitching. "You really should know the meaning of that thing. Putting aside the marriage certificate and such, getting it means that you and I are already bound together."
"Don't say any of that, just tell me whether you'll give it to me or not," Touka smiled.
"Give, give."
Mu Xiaoxiao handed over the communication card, saw the little figure of Touka Tohsaka on it, and shrugged. "I thought you would make that wish, like bringing your father back to life or something. Sigh, I was overthinking it."
Touka Tohsaka froze, her eyes wide. "Little one, what... what do you mean by that..."
“It means exactly what it says,” Mu Xiaoxiao said with a mischievous smile. “You know I have special powers. Reviving someone is impossible for others, but I might be able to do it.”
"..."
Touka Tohsaka was almost speechless; her lips trembled. "Touka, are you... are you telling the truth? You're not lying to me, are you? This kind of thing, this kind of thing..."
She was a little incoherent.
[Wishlist (Touka Tohsaka): I want to see my father again, I want him to come back to life]
Mu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth. Just as he had thought, her true wish had come true.
Unfortunately, I can't do it right now, and it sounds like I'm just making empty promises. But the secret items are full of things like causality and changing reality, so resurrecting someone shouldn't be too difficult.
Tohsaka Touka could no longer contain her excitement and grabbed his arm. "Tohsaka, you're not lying to me, are you?"
Fear, tension, and vulnerability—a mix of emotions surfaced on the girl's face. Her lips trembled as she looked pleadingly at the boy before her, afraid he would say it was just a joke.
"Although I can't do it right now, I'm not lying to you."
Overjoyed and excited, an indescribable emotion exploded within her, and she could no longer contain herself, throwing herself into Mu Xiaoxiao's arms. "It's true, it's really true that I can see my father again, that he's been resurrected..."
She could feel her body trembling violently. Mu Xiaoxiao, who was surrounded by warm fragrance, immediately sensed the difference between Touka Tohsaka and Akane and Saki.
Because of years of exercise, the senior student's body muscles are much firmer and more elastic.
They laughed at their soft and cuddly appearance.
Wait, why is it glowing?
No, mine is glowing too!
Mu Xiaoxiao took out the glowing card from his chest, then looked at his senior's card. A strange feeling arose in his heart, and at the same time, a strange gravitational force began to pull him and Senior Dong Xiang together.
"Wait! Could this be..."
He recalled the description of his good friend's communication card: encountering difficulties would unleash powerful strength, and at the same time, strong bonds could also trigger miracles.
Swish!
The two vanished into thin air, leaving only the wagtails on the railing frantically circling overhead, searching for their missing owners. (To be continued...)
I need to work on the outline, so the update will be a little later.
Chapter 44 Back to the Past
The Best Friend Communication Card is a secret treasure of the future world, a legendary item. Its specific functions are far more complex than described, and it hides many unknown secrets that need to be discovered slowly.
For example, if people who possess a communication card have a deep bond, they can even communicate across time and space. For a treasure of this magnitude, even time cannot be a barrier.
Furthermore, what exactly is the power of miracles? There is no strict definition. For this card, any incredible, transformative miracle, even one that defies the rules and laws, is possible.
That's what makes communication cards so terrifying.
And now, the miracle caused by Touka Tohsaka's strong desire and bond has been born. Without relying on a time machine, she and Mu Xiaoxiao traveled directly to the past with the help of their good friend's communication card.
"Xiaoxiao, this is..."
Suddenly appearing from the school building rooftop at a bustling street intersection wouldn't normally be considered time travel, but rather a spatial teleportation ability. However, both Touka Tohsaka and Mu Xiaoxiao clearly recognized that they had returned to the past.
Not only because the weather suddenly turned very cold, but also because the communication card transmitted information to them.
Touka Tohsaka was filled with excitement, exhilaration, and shock. Although she knew that Xiaoxiao was not simple and knew about that magical gadget, the time travel still gave the girl a great shock.
That's a bit scary, isn't it?
"Yes, just like you thought, we've come to the past," Mu Xiaoxiao said, still holding the communication card in her hand. It was still glowing, but much fainter, and almost invisible unless you looked closely.
"To be precise, we've reached the point of your father's death. I never imagined the communication card could do something like this, taking us through time and space. It seems there are still many powers I don't know about it. A miracle, huh?"
Mu Xiaoxiao looked around. The pedestrians on the road did not notice the boy and girl's abnormality, nor did they seem to notice their sudden appearance. Car horns and noise continued to echo around them.
