"Kaguya-chan, this is Snow White." Fujiwara Chika held Hayasaka Ai's arm, her voice clear, "When I first saw her last night, I was so stunned. I couldn't believe there was such a beautiful person in the world."
You weren't stunned, you almost became a simp, alright?
Amamiya Natsuki carefully looked at the girl disguised as Snow White and quickly came to a conclusion.
The disguise didn't seem to be 100% perfect.
Although the Spy Maid in front of him possessed extreme human beauty, the simp curse that made people willingly sacrifice for her was absent.
"…Snow White?"
Shinomiya Kaguya's eyes widened slightly.
It was her first time seeing Snow White. Although she had heard Chika talk a lot about Snow White's beauty yesterday, she was still very confident in herself.
Now, she realized that she had been defeated in terms of appearance, and couldn't help but bite her lower lip.
Amamiya Natsuki turned his head and looked at her, saying seriously:
"Kaguya-san is even cuter."
"…Liar!"
Shinomiya Kaguya's pink cheeks puffed slightly, unhappy.
She was clearly not as good, yet he said she was cuter than Snow White. She wasn't an idiot, how could she believe him!
Amamiya Natsuki took out a small mirror and said:
"This is the Witch's Mirror I borrowed from Takanashi, remember?"
"I remember." Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly, "Then what?"
"Watch closely."
Amamiya Natsuki held the mirror in front of him, then said:
"Compared to Hanamori, who always disguises herself and is unwilling to show her true face, Kaguya-san is much cuter."
"…"
After he finished speaking, Amamiya Natsuki in the mirror showed no change.
Clearly, this was the truth from the heart.
A blush quickly spread across Sheltered Ojou-sama's pretty face, then she pursed her pink lips and looked away, her mood greatly improved.
Hayasaka Ai was unhappy.
Pervert senpai, utterly devoid of conscience!
He actually used her to boost his favorability with the Young Miss. Dog execution, hydraulic press execution!
The Spy Maid's eyes darted around, then she clasped her hands together in front of her chest and fanned the flames:
"Hanamori knows she's not cute at all, but Hanamori is very curious… In Senpai's eyes, who is the cutest among Chika Senpai, Kaguya-senpai, and Tsubame-senpai?"
Upon hearing this, the three girls all looked at Amamiya Natsuki.
Amamiya Natsuki silently looked at Hayasaka Ai: Are you trying to trick me?
Hayasaka Ai raised her chin: That pervert senpai who asked me to help him conquer other girls before, and now he says I'm not cute. My rage value can no longer be contained!
Facing the gazes of the girls, Amamiya Natsuki interlaced his fingers and said earnestly:
"Just like plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum, each has its own unique charm. The question of who is the cutest requires careful consideration, and I cannot give an answer immediately."
After a pause, Amamiya Natsuki continued:
"I'll probably figure out the answer tonight. When that happens, you can all come to my tent one by one, and I'll answer then."
"Pfft!"
Fujiwara Chika lightly spat and pushed him away, instantly seeing through Amamiya Natsuki's sinister intentions, "I won't go to your tent again!"
Running into his tent at night was clearly like a lamb entering a tiger's den, actively offering herself up to be bullied.
She would definitely not make the same mistake twice!
"Wait." Shinomiya Kaguya narrowed her eyes, looking at her good friend beside her, "When did you go to the tent?"
"Cough cough." Fujiwara Chika's gaze drifted slightly, and she coughed twice, saying, "It was all last night… Because of the mushroom, I was very hungry and wanted to eat bread, that's all."
"Everyone, let's talk tonight." Tsubame-senpai smoothed things over from the side, "Let's move quickly."
"…"
After an afternoon of discussion and deliberation, Diplomacy Operation 2.0 was re-formulated, with many details and contents perfected.
Empty words are not enough.
Suddenly walking up to the guards and saying that they were foreign envoys from the end of the sea, bringing the Queen to meet the Queen, they would likely be driven away by the guards.
At this time, a guarantor was needed.
Snow White just happened to be an excellent scapegoat.
The palace was originally her home, so it was normal to bring a few friends into the palace, right?
Of course, this was just the first step.
It was not ruled out that the group might be stopped, especially Amamiya Natsuki and Kaguya, whose mushrooms on their heads had not yet been removed, making them mushroom people who could explode at any time. Even with Snow White, they would not be allowed to enter the palace.
So…
"Kaguya-chan, and Natsuki-kun." Fujiwara Chika turned around and whispered, "There's no one outside on the street, you can use your skills."
Amamiya Natsuki glanced at Kaguya and asked:
"You first or me first?"
Sheltered Ojou-sama covered her chest with her right hand: "Of course, you go first."
After turning into a cat, her clothes would naturally fall off. She didn't want him to see her underwear!
"Then I'll go first."
Amamiya Natsuki nodded, not at all shy, and silently used the Dark Shadow skill he had just copied from Kaguya.
The next moment.
Amamiya Natsuki only felt his body cool down, his vision rapidly shortened, and his entire being transformed into a cat-shaped black shadow.
He had, of course, experienced this skill before. It had to be said that the feeling of turning into a shadow creature was quite magical, as if he was in a special space full of light and shadow, where he could hear the outside world and sounds, but could not touch Chika's body.
"A divine skill for sneaking, very practical for both surprise attacks and escapes."
Amamiya Natsuki gave his evaluation.
Of course, this skill also had limitations, such as not being able to maintain the shadow form indefinitely, having a time limit, and a long cooldown time, etc.
As he spoke, the Sheltered Ojou-sama took a deep breath and also turned into a Dark Shadow cat.
Plop.
Finally, only the clothes of the two were left on the snowy ground, along with two shadow-shaped cats, one large and one small.
"I'll take the clothes."
Tsubame-senpai bent down and quickly picked up the clothes. Time was tight, so there was no time to tidy them up. She put them all into the ordinary backpack they had prepared earlier.
Hayasaka Ai silently recalled Snow White's every move yesterday, then raised her chin and said proudly:
"Out, back to the palace."
Thankfully, although the disguise skill didn't have the simp curse, her voice showed no hint of breaking.
The group quickly walked out of the alley and headed towards the palace entrance.
Amamiya Natsuki and Sheltered Ojou-sama, in their shadow forms, stealthily moved within the shadows of Chika and the others.
Hayasaka Ai held up her skirt with both hands, raised her chin, and soon arrived at the palace gate.
"Princess, you're back."
The guards at the entrance bowed one after another.
"Open the door," Hayasaka Ai said, raising her chin, mimicking Snow White's demeanor and tone. "I want to return to the palace."
A guard looked at Chika and the others behind Hayasaka Ai, hesitating, "Princess, they cannot enter."
"They are my friends, and they don't have a mushroom. Why can't they enter?"
Hayasaka Ai raised her chin, her tone arrogant. "Open the door quickly. I'll take responsibility for anything."
"Yes, Princess."
The guards hesitated for a moment, but finally opened the door.
Firstly, the mushrooms on top of Chika and the others' heads had already been removed. Secondly, they were all girls, and with Snow White vouching for them, the first hurdle was successfully passed.
Looking at the slowly opening, heavy palace gate, Hayasaka Ai secretly breathed a sigh of relief and led Chika and the others into the palace.
"We really got in."
After moving away from the palace gate, Tsubame-senpai patted her chest, exhaling, "I was so nervous just now."
The passerby player, Yamashita, quickly nodded, excitedly saying, "It felt just like a Spy in a movie. My heart almost jumped out just now."
Fujiwara Chika put her hands on her hips: "We really do have Spy talent."
Hearing this, Hayasaka Ai's lips twitched slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Chika.
With your unpredictable, chaotic personality, you wouldn't have any Spy talent at all!
"Hanamori-chan, why are you looking at me?"
Fujiwara Chika looked over curiously.
"Nothing… Before achieving our goal and successfully withdrawing, don't let your guard down."
Hayasaka Ai sighed silently.
Real Spy operations are not as simple as you imagine.
At the same time.
Amamiya Natsuki and Shinomiya Kaguya were observing the environment within the palace.
The palace was very large, its ground also covered in white snow, appearing majestic and solemn. Guards stood watch at regular intervals.
"It's a good thing we didn't rush in carelessly," Amamiya Natsuki mused.
Shinomiya Kaguya responded: "It is indeed very dangerous."
After both of them transformed into Dark Shadow cats, communication didn't require speaking, but rather a peculiar telepathy, which was more efficient.
At the same time.
Hayasaka Ai had already approached a guard and said directly:
"Take me to the Queen."
The guard shook his head:
"Her Majesty the Queen has not met with anyone for a very long time."
"I have something very important to tell the Queen," Hayasaka Ai pointed at Chika, her expression serious. "They are my friends, and they just discovered how to cure the mushroom disease."
The duration of the disguise was limited, so they had to act quickly and meet the Queen as soon as possible. Every minute and second was precious.
Since they were going to approach the Queen by offering a treasure, then undoubtedly, the cure for the mushroom disease was the most precious treasure, without a doubt.
"That's right," Fujiwara Chika stepped forward, her voice clear. "We have indeed discovered a method to cure the mushroom disease."
They weren't lying; it was just that the treatment method couldn't be widely promoted.
The guard was greatly surprised: "Princess, please don't joke."
"I will be responsible for what I say," Hayasaka Ai raised her chin. "Now, take me to see the Queen."
What Snow White said, what does it have to do with me, Hayasaka Ai?
Of course, she wasn't afraid of taking responsibility.
"Princess, please follow me."
The guard dared not delay and quickly led them deeper into the palace.
A moment later.
They arrived in front of a palace.
"Princess, please wait a moment. I will report to Her Majesty the Queen," the guard stopped. "If you rush in, you will be punished by Her Majesty the Queen."
Hayasaka Ai sighed helplessly: "There's no time."
"What is the Princess saying?"
The guard looked over in confusion, then saw a faint light flickering around Hayasaka Ai, immediately followed by her transforming into an unfamiliar girl he had never seen before.
The ten-minute "skin experience card" had expired, and Snow White had reverted to Hayasaka Ai.
Seeing the Spy Maid reveal her true face, the guard was stunned. Before he could react, Fujiwara Chika pointed her finger and quickly said:
"Don, the Outlaw, that's you!"
The passerby player, who had been standing by the guard's side, prepared for a long time, quickly reached out and pressed her hand on the guard's body, nervously saying:
"Don, the Outlaw, you are arrested!"
The Seize and Eliminate Evil combination skill was successfully triggered.
The guard, who was about to draw his weapon, instantly stiffened. Only his eyes and mouth could still move, and he opened his mouth to shout for help.
Slap!
Tsubame-senpai took out a towel and stuffed it into the guard's mouth.
On the way, the girls had already secretly communicated and assigned tasks.
Now, working together, they didn't give the guard a chance to call for help and directly arrested him.
Hayasaka Ai pushed open the palace door and said in a low voice:
"Let's go in."
The girls did not stop. Grabbing the Lawless Outlaw who had been easily subdued, they quickly entered the palace.
As for Amamiya Natsuki and Shinomiya Kaguya, they remained in their Dark Shadow state and did not immediately reveal themselves.
"So cold."
Fujiwara Chika hugged her arms, shivering slightly.
Koyasu Tsubame said in a low voice:
"The temperature inside the palace is even lower than outside."
"That..." The passerby player, Yamashita, said in a low voice, "What should we do with this guard?"
Hayasaka Ai turned to look, and quickly said:
"Our purpose in coming here is just to find the Queen and borrow the Magic Mirror... You stay here and keep an eye on him. As long as you don't let go, it'll be fine."
Koyasu Tsubame pursed her pink lips and quietly suggested:
"Besides us, no one else should have entered the palace temporarily... Before going to find the Queen, should we let Natsuki-kun come out first and then Copy and Paste a temporary skill?"
Only one skill can be copied and pasted. Hayasaka Ai currently has no skills, and Seize and Eliminate Evil is a combination skill. Chika and the passerby player have locked their combination and cannot sentence anyone else.
"Senpai is right," Fujiwara Chika nodded, then whispered, "Natsuki-kun, come out."
Amamiya Natsuki was still in his Dark Shadow state at this moment and could clearly hear Chika's voice. Hearing her, he proactively deactivated his Dark Shadow skill.
The next second.
Amamiya Natsuki appeared out of thin air beside the girls.
"So cold."
Transforming from a Dark Shadow cat back into a human, he naturally had no clothes on. Amamiya Natsuki instantly felt the coldness assault him.
"Eh eh eh?!"
Koyasu Tsubame's eyes widened. After clearly seeing the gently swaying object, she was startled, and her pretty face quickly flushed at a visible speed.
A, a giant snake!
The difference from those in manga was too great!
Fujiwara Chika's cheeks also flushed, and she quickly averted her gaze, but she had seen it before, so she wasn't overly startled.
In contrast, Hayasaka Ai had even stepped on it with her foot, so she was quite calm now, though a faint blush still secretly rose on her face.
Amamiya Natsuki turned his body, his back to the girls: "Senpai, give me my clothes."
"Ah... oh."
Koyasu Tsubame didn't dare to turn her head, her pretty face flushed, and she quickly handed over her backpack.
Amamiya Natsuki found his clothes inside and began to quickly put them on. It was simply too cold in the palace.
A few seconds later, Amamiya Natsuki said:
"I'm dressed."
"That's too fast, isn't it?"
Fujiwara Chika covered her face with her hands, peeking through her fingers, and looked over, "You only put on your shorts!"
"Swimming class is also just shorts," Amamiya Natsuki said as he continued to put on his clothes. "My innocence is gone... Don't you guys have to take responsibility?"
"Pah!"
