“I’m a big cat.”
"You are just a kitten. If you were a big cat, you would be as big as me when you turned into a human. But you are so small, which means you are just a kitten."
"Well……"
The little girl was speechless. She took small steps with difficulty and moved forward a little bit at a time, thinking in her mind how to respond.
for a long time.
She murmured:
"I want to be a cat again."
"No."
"why not?"
"Because if you are seen outside in human form, they will catch you like you catch a mouse."
"Will they eat me too?"
"almost."
"Then why don't you eat me?"
"Ryoko is talking nonsense again."
"No."
"So do you want me to eat you?"
"I don't want to. Ryoko is very powerful. You can't eat me."
The little girl shook the cloth connected to their wrists, wrinkled her nose proudly, and her steps became much lighter.
"Hehe..." Hoshino Bai Ze smiled, bent down slightly, and rubbed the hat on the little girl's head.
The little guy was very unhappy and immediately straightened his hat.
Then, as if she had thought of something, she spoke again:
"Wait and sell it for money?"
Hoshino Bai Ze knew what she was talking about.
They are the colorful little stones that Ryoko collected in the corner of the balcony.
Because I know I have to go out and play.
The little guy pestered Hoshino Bai Ze to buy some thumb-sized glass bottles, put the small stones in them one by one, and finally collected five bottles.
It was a smart idea. I just went out to have fun and sold it at the same time.
Of course, all these tasks were given to Hoshino Bai Ze, since he is the nominal guardian of the young girl.
"Ryoko, can you sell it to me? I'm planning to give it away as a gift."
"Can I sell it to you?" The little girl's tone and expression revealed a strong sense of disbelief.
I guess she never thought about it.
Family members can also do business with each other.
"sure."
"Then I'll sell it to you."
"How much do you want?"
"Well... a lot of money."
"That won't work. You won't be able to sell it for much money." Hoshino Bai Ze smiled, as if he were a profiteer.
The young girl was ignorant and asked stupidly: "How much can it be sold for?"
"How about 20,000 yuan?"
"is it a lot?"
"Not bad." Hoshino Bai Ze said, and took out two ten thousand yuan bills from his thick shirt pocket and handed them over.
"I know this. You taught me." The little girl took the money and looked at it curiously. A light that had never been seen before shone in her cute big eyes.
This is the first time.
The money the little girl earns herself means a lot to her.
then.
When passing by a store.
The little guy didn't say a word, and ran in, pulling Hoshino Bai Ze.
temporary.
Hoshino Bai Ze untied the cloth tied around their wrists and let the little girl go shopping by herself to see if she could figure it out.
Also taking advantage of this time.
He walked around the store and bought a nice little gift, which he planned to give to the little one later.
One minute later.
The little guy came to the counter to pay.
Took a bag of candy.
The shop owner took the ten thousand yuan bill with a smile, and then gave the little guy more than nine thousand yuan in change.
The little girl turned her head and looked at Xingye Bai Ze, and said happily: "There is more money."
"No." Xingye Bai Ze explained: "Because it is not as valuable as the money just now."
"I know."
"you know?"
"Well, it just became more."
"Ok."
Hoshino Bai Ze was already used to the little girl's words and didn't say anything.
Wait till you collect the money.
When leaving the store.
He gave the things he bought to the little guy and said softly:
"Hey, Ryoko, this is a gift for you. It's specially made to hold your money."
"What is this?" The little girl looked at it curiously.
Actually, it’s nothing.
It's a pink cartoon wallet.
"This... this is a wallet, a bag specifically for storing money."
"how to use?"
"I'll teach you, just watch." Hoshino Bai Ze demonstrated in front of her and sorted the little guy's money into the account one by one.
The little girl was so happy watching it.
Finally, he held up a pink cartoon wallet and just kept looking at it.
"Okay, put it away, be careful someone doesn't snatch it."
"Ryoko, don't be afraid."
"You can't beat someone as big as me."
"I can beat him."
The little girl said this angrily, but still carefully put the pink cartoon wallet in her pocket.
Along the way, he would touch it from time to time to make sure it was not lost, and then he would show a relieved expression.

………………
Don't know how long.
at last.
Hoshino Shirazawa and Ryoko came to Sanchome.
I took a look at the Christmas tree in front of me.
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he walked in with the little guy.
Once inside.
I saw a very lively scene.
A long dining table had been set up in the yard, with a variety of snacks on it. Kissing Eri and the others were stringing meat on skewers or cutting vegetables.
"Is it starting so early?" Hoshino Bai Ze asked them with a smile.
"Yes."
Kisaki Eri nodded, then came to the little girl, bent down, and asked her:
"Ryoko, do you remember me?"
"Ah."
"Then who am I?"
"Hmm..." Ryoko buried her mouth in her scarf and said softly, "You are the one who got beaten badly."
"Ah? Fight?" Hibiki Eri was completely confused and had no idea what the little guy was talking about.
Seeing that she didn't understand, Ryoko thought for a moment and said, "It was just very miserable. He kept screaming in the room for a long time."
"Ahem." Hoshino Bai Ze couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly pulled the hat on the little girl's head, covering her eyes and face, and let her sort it out slowly by herself.
this moment.
Kisaki Eri understood.
Her face flushed red and her body was shaking slightly. When she turned her head to look at Hoshino Bai Ze, her beautiful eyes seemed to be able to kill people.
Hoshino Bai Ze argued: "Eri, don't look at me like that, it's none of my business."
"You...you...you..." Hibari never thought that such an embarrassing thing would be known by a little girl.
The only thing that made her feel fortunate was that the little girl seemed to understand nothing and didn't understand what it meant.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault, my fault, okay."
Hoshino Bai Ze didn't want to dwell on this issue any further. After all, girls are very shy, so she admitted her mistake directly and then changed the subject:
"Tomorrow is Christmas, do you want to go out on a date?"
"Date..."
Fei Yingli glanced at the busy crowd and said softly: "Okay, when will we meet?"
"Ten o'clock in the morning, at your doorstep."
"Then it's settled."
"Ah."
After the two of them finished their whisper, they came to the crowd.
As for the little episode just now and what Ryoko said, Kisaki Eri selectively forgot it. After all, it was too embarrassing. She was afraid that if she thought about it again, she might find a piece of tofu to hit herself to death.
Ryoko's arrival.
In just a short while, she became the group's favorite and was teased by all the older sisters.
Of course, Ai Raiu and Hitomi Raiu were also there. Although Ryoko acted very calm, under their influence, she became a little more lively and looked more and more like a little girl from the normal world.
"Hey, where's Miss Qianying?"
