Chapter Twenty-Four: Spicy Balls! Senior Sister Has Forgotten Everything!

On the rooftop, the cold wind made the collars of the two men flutter as they faced each other.

"Mu Xiaoxiao, show your fangs."

"I'm just an ordinary high school student!"

"I won't resist."

"You're making things difficult for me!"

The two stared at each other for a long time before Mu Xiaoxiao sighed, "Tohsaka Touka, stop now, there's still time to turn back."

The beautiful girl, whose body was faintly emanating black energy, pursed her lips. She did not answer, but moved closer again, her face almost touching Mu Xiaoxiao's. A pleasant fragrance wafted over, but he had no romantic thoughts whatsoever.

With her eyes lifeless and her former senior showing signs of turning dark, Mu Xiaoxiao was terrified. Seeing that her senior was unwilling to turn back, Mu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to reach out and pinch her fair, collagen-rich face hard.

"To be honest, I can't stop you if you really want to die, but before that, I hope you can take a look at this."

As if by magic, a purple flower appeared in his hand, bright and beautiful. The girl didn't see how he produced it before it was handed to her.

Touka Tohsaka was puzzled. "Confess? If that's your condition, I can accept your confession."

"..."

Two veins throbbed on her forehead as Mu Xiaoxiao forced a stiff smile. "I'm a little tempted, pshaw! That's not what I meant. This flower might help you get over your pain and make you feel better. Senior, give it a try."

"If you still want to die after smelling it, I won't refuse you anymore."

Touka Tohsaka felt something was off. "I'm not a primary school student anymore. Such naive thoughts."

But she didn't object. Touka Tohsaka took the flowers he offered. The flowers were beautiful and pretty, but that was all. She didn't think they could help her or change her mind.

Thinking about it, the girl brought the flower closer and took a sniff.

The fragrance of this flower isn't strong; it's not as fragrant as the flowers in the flowerbed next to it. The scent of this flower is rather faint, but it is indeed quite pleasant, that's all. I don't know what the point of this is. How could it possibly stop me? Stop me? Stop what? What was I trying to say?

Wait, what was I trying to do just now?

Noticing the change in the girl's expression, her originally dejected and downcast look gradually turned into confusion, Mu Xiaoxiao knew that the Forget-Me-Not Grass had taken effect. He shrugged, relieved but also a little helpless.

"Time heals all wounds, but you seem to be having a hard time getting through this painful period. I'm sorry, Tohsaka-senpai, let's just forget about this for now."

She probably won't do anything extreme again.

However, the effects of the Forget-Me-Not Grass are not permanent; they will gradually return after a while. Well, we'll see when that happens.

Mu Xiaoxiao opened the system, but there were no changes. Touka Tohsaka's wish list was still for death, which meant that this method only treated the symptoms and not the root cause. Even the secret item could not completely solve the problem.

This is so troublesome.

"I woo..."

The girl rubbed her forehead, feeling dizzy. She seemed to have forgotten something, but she found herself feeling a sense of relief deep inside, as the heavy burden and pressure she had been carrying eased somewhat.

what's the situation?

Although she didn't know what was going on, with each whiff of the fragrance of the flowers, her mind felt lighter and her body more comfortable. She was somewhat captivated by this feeling, so the girl greedily inhaled the scent of the flowers.

But she didn't realize that with each inhale, a fragment of memory quietly disappeared. She might have realized it, but she would forget it completely the next second. Before long, Touka Tohsaka's pretty face, which had been filled with despair, was completely filled with confusion and bewilderment.

"Oops!!!"

Mu Xiaoxiao finally realized what was happening, quickly shut down the system, snatched back her Forget-Me-Not Grass, and said in a panic, "I was distracted for a moment, and you actually smelled it a few times?"

"Huh? What?"

"..."

Mu Xiaoxiao felt a chill run down her spine. Meeting the girl's innocent gaze, she forced a smile, her heart pounding, "Um, Tohsaka-senpai, are you... are you alright?"

"Tohsaka-senpai..." The girl opened her mouth slightly, pointed at herself, and asked, "Are you calling me?"

I gasped, the cold air shooting straight to the top of my head.

She smelled it too much—and completely forgot about it!

Mu Xiaoxiao almost fainted. His hands trembled as he pressed on the girl's shoulders, his cheeks twitching violently. "Do you remember what your name is?"

Tohsaka Touka opened her eyes and pondered for a while.

"Can not remember."

"Where is your home?"

"do not know either."

"Your family..."

The girl shook her head blankly until Mu Xiaoxiao asked, "How old are you?"

Tohsaka Touka blinked and cautiously replied, "I should be fifteen years old this year?"

"Phew, at least I still remember..."

"My guess."

"..."

Mu Xiaoxiao froze and collapsed to the ground. "Stop guessing, you're thirty-five years old this year."

"Eh?"

Wow, I'm that old already?!

"Also, you're not a girl, you're a boy."

"Huh?!?!"

It was already evening on the rooftop. Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Touka Tohsaka, who was happily playing with the little black cat, and had to accept reality. She had forgotten the past and forgotten everything about herself.

The sadness and painful memories have been completely forgotten. However, there are also warm and beautiful parts in those memories. Mu Xiaoxiao doesn't know if it's good or bad. Now she doesn't have to worry about her seeking relief. Look how happy Senior Yuansaka is.

Grass!

The senior student from Tohsaka, who was cold, silent, aloof, and never smiled in Mu Xiaoxiao's memory, now showed such a bright smile, and was no longer gloomy.

I can hardly believe it's the same person.

Perhaps, this is the real her?

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't know.

Of course, although she had forgotten everything, she still knew that she was a girl and had not been fooled by Mu Xiaoxiao. Simply put, she still had common sense.

"Fortunately, the effects of the Forgetfulness Grass are not permanent, and she will recover after a while." Now it was Mu Xiaoxiao's turn to look worried. Once she regains her memories, she will definitely kill me.

They're thinking of running away.

But I can't just leave her here unattended.

"Um, Mu-kun," seeing that she couldn't touch the kitten no matter what she did, Touka Tohsaka had no choice but to give up and return to Mu Xiaoxiao's side. She already knew Mu Xiaoxiao's name and also her own. "It seems like it's getting dark soon."

"Where do you live? I'll take you home. You don't even know," Mu Xiaoxiao said, covering her face. "But you should have a cell phone on you. Why don't you call and ask?"

"You mean this?"

Touka Tohsaka took out her phone, looking hesitant. "But I don't want to go home. Can I stay with you tonight?"

"what?"

"Going home would feel very unfamiliar because I have no memory of it..."

She was quite scared.

"Am I not unfamiliar with you?"

Tohsaka Touka stared at Mu Xiaoxiao's face with her big eyes for a long time, then smiled and said, "No way, I think you're very kind, Mu-kun. You must be a good person."

"..."

Gan!

Chapter Twenty-Five: Night, Old School Building, Alone

“It’s fine if you don’t go home, since it’s hard to explain your current situation, but you should call your mother and tell her so she won’t worry.”

“Okay, here you go,” Touka Tohsaka nodded gently and handed him her phone, even though the girl had absolutely no recollection of it.

Mu Xiaoxiao took it and continued nagging, "Also, my accommodations aren't as nice as yours. Don't blame me if you don't sleep well. You'll have to go to the public bathhouse to take a shower. How did I become your mother? You won't find me annoying, will you?"

"No, not at all," the girl smiled gently, "Mu Jun is very gentle."

Mu Xiaoxiao sighed deeply, rubbing her forehead. "What can I do? This is the mess I've made."

Also, senior, is there such a big difference between you after you lost your memory? You instantly went from a cool and aloof kendo girl to a gentle Yamato Nadeshiko, right?

"You can still laugh and forget all your past, so you're not afraid or worried?"

"Mu Jun, didn't you say you would gradually recover? I believe you."

"..."

When Mu Xiaoxiao opened Tosaka-senpai's phone, there were very few contacts in her address book, indicating that she didn't have many friends. Mu Xiaoxiao found the contact name for her mother and then dialed the number.

"Hello? Dongxiang?" A tired voice came from the phone.

"Is that Tohsaka-senpai's mother?"

"you are?"

"Ahem, I'm a friend of yours, Tohsaka-senpai, she's with me..."

As Mu Xiaoxiao spoke, he frantically gestured and mouthed the words to her. Touka Tohsaka understood what he meant, leaned closer, opened her mouth, and said nervously, "Mom, Mom..."

Her voice sounded a little unnatural, but her mother misunderstood, thinking that her daughter was still recovering from the family tragedy, so she comforted her, "It's okay, Touka, just stay at your friend's place tonight and have fun. Don't worry about things at home..."

"Ok, I know……"

The call ended after a short while. To Tohsaka Touka felt the woman's voice was unfamiliar. Although it was her mother, she couldn't feel it. But as she listened to the stranger's comforting words, Tohsaka Touka stood there blankly, feeling her nose sting and tears sliding down her cheeks.

"Huh, that's weird..."

She didn't know why, but she just couldn't help it.

"Senior?"

"I'm sorry, Mu Jun, I don't know what's wrong, it's just that I feel a tightness in my chest, it's really uncomfortable..."

Mu Xiaoxiao silently watched her, seeing her squatting on the ground constantly shedding small pearls, and silently handed her a tissue. This girl didn't cry when she tried to kill herself before, but after forgetting all her memories, it's a good thing that she can cry now.

"You look even better crying now than before," Mu Xiaoxiao joked, lightening the somber atmosphere.

"Was I really that disliked before?" Touka Tohsaka wiped her eyes and spoke softly.

“How could that be? You used to be very popular,” Mu Xiaoxiao looked up at the darkening sky. “But senior, aren’t you hungry? If we keep talking, it’ll really get dark.”

She wasn't hungry at first, but after hearing him say that, she actually felt a bit hungry, and her stomach even started growling. Tohsaka Touka felt embarrassed and quickly covered her stomach. Seeing her lowering her head in embarrassment, Mu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth.

"Let's go to my secret base."

"You're a primary school student, right? Secret bases and stuff..."

Tohsaka Touka followed behind Mu Xiaoxiao, feeling unfamiliar with the school, especially the empty playground and buildings at dusk, which felt strangely eerie. She followed Mu Xiaoxiao to the old school building.

Seeing the dense police tape surrounding the area and the dilapidated houses, resembling an abandoned castle, a sinister feeling washed over her. Coupled with the "No Entry" warning, Touka Tohsaka's heart raced. "Do you live in a place like this, Mu-kun?"

“Some bad things have happened recently, so you’re not allowed to come or go. Consider this my temporary residence. I told you, if you come with me, you won’t be treated very well,” Mu Xiaoxiao waved and smiled. “If you’re scared, you can still back out.”

Hearing his light chuckle, Touka Tohsaka feigned composure, "If you're not afraid, of course I'm not afraid either."

Despite saying that, after she crawled through the no-entry warning strip, she immediately quickened her pace to catch up with Mu Xiaoxiao and moved closer to him, as if only in this way could she feel safe.

As I went upstairs, it gradually got dark.

The wooden stairs and floorboards creaked underfoot, and the old school building seemed even more eerie and ominous in the darkness. Standing at the entrance of the building and looking through the window, Mu Xiaoxiao could even see the traces of Dong Gang's death. Tohsaka Touka seemed not to notice any of this; she only saw a huge cherry blossom tree.

Swaying in the wind under the night sky, quiet and profound, it possesses a breathtaking beauty.

"so beautiful……"

Tohsaka-senpai was completely engrossed in watching it.

Mu Xiaoxiao led her to the top floor, to an inconspicuous little storage room at the very back. Touka Tohsaka watched as the boy struggled to push the door open, still a little puzzled.
