Chapter 226 Part 2
byChapter 226 Part 2: Chu Yuanqing? It’s Chu Yuanying! Charlotte Arrives at the Battlefield (2)
Just imagine, someone who was once cold as ice, dull and serious, with some old-fashioned ideas, and occasionally a bit nosy, has turned into a pretty girl who understands shyness and straightforwardness. It’s like discovering a brand new level in a game!
Charlotte thought that the other teammates would definitely get this contrast, but unfortunately, the other person probably hasn’t regained much memory and can’t enjoy this unmatched joy.
The girl’s eyes sparkled with shifting colors, like opal shining in water. She cheerfully started humming a song, looking forward to Chu Yuanqing’s funny reaction when caught by someone she knows.
Wait, speaking of which, Little Qing also participated in a talent show and has even been on stage several times?!
Charlotte was shocked. She had just confirmed her guess and hadn’t fully connected Chu Yuanqing and Chu Yuanying yet. After realizing this, she felt confused for a few moments, thinking this was too absurd, yet very entertaining.
In the end, all these complicated emotions turned into a strong curiosity.
Charlotte excitedly opened her phone, using her small hand to wake up her sleeping electronic pet—Esther the Dream Weaver—and sternly commanded this silver-haired, red-eyed bunny girl to get to work:
"Dream Weaver, quickly help me find all of Little Qing’s dance videos!"
The super AI’s avatar quickly finished the saintess’s tasks, organizing everything from Chu Yuanqing’s audition, the initial performance rating, the secondary rating, the first public performance, TikTok short videos, teammate competitions, the second performance, and the dance training montage, all according to a timeline, neatly arranged in the phone’s folder.
The Last Diva’s eyes sparkled with excitement; she was full of determination to review Little Qing’s audition journey before the plane arrived in Vienna, and then look through the past experiences of her old friends to get familiar with this friendlier world.
Finally, everyone completed their joyful first reunion in New Game Plus!
Meanwhile, far away, the Dream Weaver Rabbit, who received feedback from the avatar, had analyzed Charlotte’s micro-expressions, heartbeat, body temperature, and a series of data, and sent a meeting invitation to the Countermeasures Bureau of Donghong Federation and Sacred United Country, determined to discuss a very important question.
That is…
Amaterasu from Donghong Federation and the saintess from Sacred United Country.
These two represent the hope of humanity as "lighthouses." If they fall in love during "work," what attitude should the officials take?
First, being opposed is not acceptable because it would upset the "lighthouses."
But supporting "office romances" is also inappropriate; what if it stops one of them from becoming a "lighthouse"?
Although this way of thinking is very cold and selfish, for the future of all humanity, Dream Weaver, as a super AI, must consider all the factors.
Soon, a group of powerful old men and middle-aged men appeared in the central room, gathering together to discuss the strange situation of whether two underage girls should date.
During this time, the Donghong and Sacred factions were filled with tension, as if both sides felt the other was trying to entice their "lovely daughters." The younger participants couldn’t help but sneer, sarcastically accusing each other of giving too little love to their "lovely daughters," which had led to feelings of romance.
…
…
Today in Vienna is still bright and sunny.
Kirimi Miyuki carefully placed her newly folded paper cranes into the glass jar she just bought. She decided to fill the jar with cranes before Honey Qing turned into a magical girl, believing that this would surely help her friend!
Little Sakura showed a pure and hopeful smile as she gazed down at the drawing paper on the table, which featured Chu Yuanqing’s artwork. It wasn’t realistic but rather had an anime style, inspired by Chu Yuanqing in a little dress, holding a mercury sword in a cool pose.
Although I still don’t understand why my drawing skills have improved, it’s still a lucky thing to be able to draw Honey Qing more accurately from my heart, isn’t it?
"Speaking of which, I had a strange dream last night, even longer and more complicated than before."
"Hmm… is it because I played doctor with Little Qing?"
Kirimi Miyuki was still quite confused, but out of trust in Chu Yuanqing, she firmly believed it was not a bad thing. Therefore, she did not feel scared or worried, although she was still curious.
Little Sakura couldn’t help but turn back to think. She realized that every time on the evening of Mana Regeneration Day, she would dream, but each dream was wrapped in a thick fog, as if it purposefully blurred her understanding, leaving her feeling empty upon waking.
Kirimi Miyuki guessed that this must be some wonderful magic; perhaps she had seen something amazing as a child, just like the hero of the digital monsters, but forgot it for some reason.
Now she remembered it all because Honey Qing was helping her slowly get closer to being a magical girl.
So, yesterday Little Sakura was especially eager for a kiss, almost like she had learned bad habits from Xie Qingxuan, and her hands were a bit naughty, like a sculptor exploring the perfect shape and most beautiful curve. This made the Pure White Witch, who usually chose to play dead during such moments, quite troubled as she let the other person do as they wished.
Kirimi Miyuki stopped thinking too much. She stepped outside, into the living room, where her teammates were all sitting side by side on the sofa, their four pale legs touching, creating a harmonious scene.
On the television, a respected meteorologist was sitting outdoors with a smile, talking confidently to an audience pulled in from the roadside. He had the dignity and warmth unique to elders and spoke in a professional tone, analyzing the wonderful weather that had covered the country like a rain of gems last night.
Well, because the [Pure White] miracle has spanned the world for 17 years, and everything has been safe and sound, the public’s acceptance of it is clearly very high.
Everyone is quite willing to have professionals who can reassure them, saying that the gemstone rain is harmless, even describing it as a good omen.
However, the little idol present does not think so.
Chu Wang Shu was the first to speak; she said confidently:
"This must be some super powerful magical aftershock, just like the dazzling light from Honey Qing’s mercury birdcage explosion!"
The green-eyed cat seemed a bit cautious and said seriously:
"That must be something bad!"
If you ask why, it’s because when she saw the rainbow light yesterday, her head felt dizzy for some reason, and she almost fell over!
And…
The little girl hid a remarkable wisdom in her soul. She sensed a strange threat approaching, like a protective cat, feeling very hostile towards the odd sky, giving off a silly and cute vibe as she quietly turned her back to it.
Chu Yuanqing patted her lovely daughter’s head, feeling helpless inside.
Perhaps because she had just seen magic two days ago and her world had been turned upside down, Little Shu seemed to have developed a habit of linking everything strange to magic.
This was not helpful for her future honesty.
However, it must be said that the weather, like a rain of gems, was created by the three elements of heart waves, magic, and brilliance. Calling it magic wouldn’t be wrong; it was just a case of hitting the mark by accident.
Of course, the most important thing was that it surprisingly carried Charlotte’s scent.
When Pure White Witch got up, she had already received Charlotte’s stage video from someone before the official website of "Dazzling Stage." After confirming the source of the "rain of gems," she watched it ten more times, still wanting more, before seriously replying with her cheerful little piece of writing.
Well, it was actually less than a hundred words, but to her, that was already a lot.
Chu Yuanqing recalled the last message Charlotte sent, her lips couldn’t help but curve into a sweet smile.
——"Jiang Jiang! The performance has ended wonderfully. I am free now! Aren’t you excited about when I can come to find you?"
——"The answer is… a secret!"
——"Anyway, it definitely won’t be today. Yesterday was really tiring, and I want to sleep all day in the hotel! So, Little Qing, just enjoy the last few days in Vienna."
Chu Yuanqing felt happy and couldn’t help but start to look forward to it. Even if she could only witness that stage through a video, she could still guess a lot from the melody, the lyrics, and the emotion and power of the other person’s singing.
Charlotte must still remember some things from the past. In the worst case, there would be many feelings that would explode once touched, and her progress would probably be further along than the little idol beside her.
This might be because she is also a force that changes the world’s timeline?
The blessing of "Sending Off" was only transferred to Charlotte at the last moment. She is likely to remember those memories more easily than her other friends.
Little Sakura clapped her hands and said:
"Alright, stop watching the news! Don’t we still have to complete the street dance mission?"
Hearing this, Chu Yuanqing cleared her thoughts. She stood up and glanced at her outfit, pushing aside the shame she had started to feel recently. She forced a carefree smile and said,
"Well, I think we can start now."
Although she was already used to performing on stage in front of an audience, street performances felt different. She hoped… that there wouldn’t be any embarrassing surprises.
