Chapter 88: That Alluring Older Sister

Regarding Tsukiyomi Ruri’s words, Leona thought for a moment, then quickly shook her head to indicate it wouldn’t work.

“Don’t shake your head, you’re bumping into me.” Tsukiyomi Ruri held Leona’s head still.

“Ruri, the method you mentioned won’t work. I can’t run that fast,” Leona said helplessly.

“How about this: I’ll take the bottom position this time. Once we get there, we can switch positions back,” Tsukiyomi Ruri quickly came up with a method.

“You mean you’ll let me ride on you?” Leona’s eyes lit up.

“It’s a perfectly normal and ordinary thing, don’t make it sound so strange.” Tsukiyomi Ruri tapped Leona on the head.

“Got it, let’s switch positions.” Leona laughed playfully.

The two immediately began swapping positions inside the costume, one moving down and the other up, quickly completing the exchange.

Fortunately, this costume was the short-legged type; otherwise, Tsukiyomi Ruri’s feet would not have fit easily into the leg positions of the costume.

Hoisting Leona onto her shoulders, Tsukiyomi Ruri placed her hands on Leona’s legs.

Although Leona was a Ghost, and her body felt exceptionally cold even after solidifying, her skin was smooth and soft, feeling like silk to the touch.

“We’re leaving now. Get ready.” Tsukiyomi Ruri said.

Looking outside through the small holes in the little bear costume’s eyes, Leona immediately began paddling on top of Tsukiyomi Ruri’s head, using it to indicate the direction.

Tsukiyomi Ruri thus arrived at her front door. After confirming no one was outside, she exited and immediately kicked off the ground. Her entire body shot out like an arrow leaving the bowstring.

“Ah, ah, ah…” Caught off guard, Leona cried out.

Tsukiyomi Ruri hurriedly said, “Don’t shout out loud, give me a direction…”

“Thud!”

Before she finished speaking, she directly slammed into a tree by the roadside. Luckily, her reactions were fast; sensing contact with something, she immediately withdrew her force. Otherwise, this tree would have been sent flying by her impact.

“Sorry, Ruri. Now, go this way.” Leona came to her senses and immediately started directing.

Tsukiyomi Ruri moved immediately, twisting and turning under the directions, and quickly entered a dark, narrow alleyway.

Once there, Tsukiyomi Ruri stopped. “This spot is already far enough from my house. Let’s switch positions back. Then you can just walk normally outside.”

“Oh, oh, no problem,” Leona replied.

The two immediately began swapping positions inside the little bear costume.

At that moment, outside the alley, a few elementary school students happened to pass by. They witnessed the form of a little bear presented in an extremely twisted posture, twisting back and forth there, looking exceptionally horrifying.

“Mommy!”

The elementary school students ran away in fright.

After switching positions back, Tsukiyomi Ruri looked outside through the eyeholes of the little bear costume.

“You’re sitting on my hair,” Leona reminded her.

Tsukiyomi Ruri immediately twisted her body to release Leona’s hair and said, “I suggest you also tie your hair in twin-tails. It’s very convenient that way. Letting it naturally drape down is still inconvenient.”

“…We’ll talk about that another time.” Leona was not accustomed to the twin-tail hairstyle.

“Alright, we’re on the move again.” Tsukiyomi Ruri began paddling on Leona’s head.

Today, the citizens of Natsuki City witnessed a person wearing a little bear costume walking down the street. But while people might glance at it a couple of extra times, that was all, and they didn’t pay it much mind.

Nothing happened along the way, and Tsukiyomi Ruri arrived at her destination just like that.

A house stood here. Outside the house were trees with lush branches and leaves. Further out, the street was spacious but desolate, with only the occasional passerby at long intervals.

Tsukiyomi Ruri reached the outside of the house and looked around. Before she could discern anything, the door in front of her happened to open.

“Goodbye, Ms. Kanazawa. I will come visit you again when I have the chance.” A man bowed towards the interior of the house, then turned around, intending to leave. But as he turned and saw the person wearing the little bear costume in front of him, he couldn’t help but pause, and a name slipped out. “Ghost?”

Tsukiyomi Ruri: “…”

Leona: “…”

Just from the voice, they could tell, wasn’t this Monkey, whom they had met at the Reincarnator Gathering last night?

Of course, at this moment, Monkey was no longer wearing the monkey mask. His face looked quite young, appearing to be in his twenties. His clothes were the standard office worker attire, wearing a suit and tie. He looked decent enough.

Just as Monkey paused in surprise, another person walked out of the house. She had wavy, golden long hair, a figure with all the right curves in all the right places, and an exceptionally alluring disposition. It was Kanazawa Maki, the one dispatched by the Reincarnator Forum.

“Hmm? Who is it? Someone you know?” Kanazawa Maki asked in a charming voice.

“Not really an acquaintance. This guy’s just a Low-Level Reincarnator,” Monkey recovered his wits and said with a smile. “Probably here to visit you just like me. But does even a Low-Level Reincarnator intend to try and get familiar?”

Monkey made no effort to hide the mockery in his tone, as if saying Tsukiyomi Ruri wasn’t qualified to be here.

With Kanazawa Maki’s arrival, naturally, many Reincarnators in Natsuki City intended to come see her, to get familiar, and hopefully latch onto a powerful benefactor. Monkey was just such a person. He had just finished paying his visit and had even presented quite a few gifts.

Hearing Monkey’s words, Kanazawa Maki glanced at him. Where exactly did Monkey get this sense of superiority? In her eyes, was there any difference between a Low-Level Reincarnator and a Mid-Level Reincarnator?

Withdrawing her gaze, Kanazawa Maki looked back at Tsukiyomi Ruri. “What are you doing dressed like that? Trying to hide your identity? Let me tell you, whoever you are, since you’ve come before me, you will register. And tell me your real identity as well.”

“I have to tell you my real identity too?” Using a voice changer, Tsukiyomi Ruri shook her head. “I cannot agree to this.”

“Does your refusal matter? Ms. Kanazawa wants your real identity, so just tell her your real identity. In the end, the outcome won’t change anyway,” Monkey sneered.

“I’m talking to Kanazawa Maki. Could you keep your comments to yourself?” Tsukiyomi Ruri glanced at Monkey.

“You dare address Ms. Kanazawa by her name directly? This is utterly disrespectful. Ms. Kanazawa, look at her.” Monkey pointed at Tsukiyomi Ruri, then looked at Kanazawa Maki.

“Keep your mouth shut.” Kanazawa Maki looked at Monkey with disgust, then walked towards Tsukiyomi Ruri. “I don’t want to waste words. Since you’ve come, you’ll register your identity, even if I have to use force.”

While speaking, Kanazawa Maki had already arrived in front of Tsukiyomi Ruri, intending to make a move and forcibly remove Tsukiyomi Ruri’s mascot costume.
