Chapter 71: Go Be a Dog!
“This… can’t be possible, right?” After hearing Luo Shuangxing’s speculation, Xia Mo showed a look of disbelief.
Her childhood sweetheart isn’t a childhood sweetheart but a childhood friend? And it’s that villain girl who hurt her?
This kind of thing is impossible to accept!
Not to mention that Luo Shuangyue has always appeared before her in a boy’s image; for such a long time, Shuangyue didn’t seem like someone who would be associated with villains and bad people.
“I don’t want to believe it either, but there are too many doubts about my brother right now!” Luo Shuangxing crossed her arms with a complex expression.
“Sister Xia Mo, do you have a feeling that Dark Butterfly’s attitude towards you isn’t quite normal?”
“She’s a bad person, a bad person who initially attacked you heavily, but when we later encountered her, didn’t she seem to attack much lighter?”
Xia Mo thought back a bit, and it did seem that way.
When Dark Butterfly fought her before, there was no thought of holding back; it was all about dismantling her.
In the subsequent few encounters, she could distinctly feel that Dark Butterfly seemed to be holding back a bit, as if deliberately letting her off.
The turning point was that one time when she was dismantled!
That time, Dark Butterfly saw her but very unusually wrapped her in a large cocoon, preventing others from seeing her appearance… Looking back now, it seems this was Dark Butterfly’s way of protecting her?
A magical girl who has exposed her true identity is now only occasionally visited by Dark Butterfly, who doesn’t seem to have much malice—this is indeed a bit strange.
“But… that can’t be confirmed, right?”
“Yes, everything is still just my speculation, but I have a way to verify this speculation!” Luo Shuangxing clenched her little fist. “Scent! The scent of Dark Butterfly after her transformation is very similar to my brother’s. So what about before her transformation?”
“Sister Xia Mo, the next time you meet Dark Butterfly, you can be a bit proactive, sniff her scent, and then compare it with my brother’s.”
“If they are the same… then we can be sure!”
Luo Shuangxing’s method is quite simple and straightforward; it’s to use the magical girl’s extraordinary senses for identification. As long as Luo Shuangyue’s and Dark Butterfly’s scents match, then they are the same person!
“Ah?” Hearing this method, Xia Mo suddenly felt a bit shy. Actively getting close to sniff Dark Butterfly’s scent is just too embarrassing.
Although Dark Butterfly had approached her before, she hadn’t seriously memorized Dark Butterfly’s scent. Otherwise, she could just rush into Luo Shuangyue’s room to smell her.
“Sister Xia Mo, I’m counting on you for this!” Luo Shuangxing pressed down on Xia Mo’s shoulders with a serious expression. “As long as there are feelings involved, gender doesn’t really matter!”
“But if Shuangyue really is Dark Butterfly…”
Xia Mo felt her head spinning a bit; she needed some time to digest these matters.
Her childhood sweetheart is actually her enemy? The girl she likes is actually a girl?
Wow, Xia Mo didn’t know how to face this feeling if it turned out to be true!
“Sister Xia Mo, if my brother is really Dark Butterfly, let’s teach her a good lesson together!” Luo Shuangxing rolled up her sleeves, completely unfazed by the complex thoughts Xia Mo had.
For her, her brother suddenly becoming her sister would actually be a good thing. You can mess around with an older sister without worrying about distance like you would with an older brother; you can act a bit more out of line.
Besides, that Dark Butterfly loves to bully her so much. If that girl is really her brother, heh heh!
Clenching her little fist, Luo Shuangxing showed an incredibly kind smile.
“Like to bully me in various ways, huh? Just don’t let me catch you!”
Seeing Luo Shuangxing eager to act, Xia Mo suddenly felt a difference between her thoughts and Luo Shuangxing’s.
She hoped Shuangyue wasn’t Dark Butterfly, while Shuangxing seemed to be anticipating that Shuangyue is indeed Dark Butterfly.
Hoping so eagerly that her brother is actually her sister’s little sister must be quite rare in this world, right?
…
While the younger sister and childhood friend began to question her identity, Luo Shuangyue was curious about how her little sister came up with such a question.
Is there something wrong with my usual behavior? There shouldn’t be! This is just something an ordinary older brother would do, right?
Luo Shuangyue seriously reviewed her recent actions and found no issues whatsoever.
She was wearing male clothing and behaving in a masculine way; the most it could be is that she appears as a girl trying to play a boy due to her appearance.
So how did Luo Shuangxing develop doubts?
Luo Shuangyue scratched her head, puzzled.
Could it really be due to some so-called scent? She raised her arm and sniffed; there was no scent at all.
Can’t figure it out.
However, since her sister is suspicious, she needs to take it seriously. Luo Shuangyue stroked her chin and decided to put her female clothing in a safer place so that her bold little sister wouldn’t pick the lock and check when she stepped out.
If those clothes were seen, it wouldn’t be something that could be explained away in just a word or two.
With Luo Shuangxing’s nature, she wouldn’t give up until she confirmed the identity.
And if Luo Shuangyue violently resisted and wouldn’t let her sister check, it seems that would be no different from admitting it…
“Sigh, this is troublesome.”
Luo Shuangyue’s most feared situation had finally happened; her greatest worry was that her sister, living under the same roof, would discover her abnormality.
Having worried for so long, she still couldn’t find a way to get away with it. As long as Luo Shuangxing adamantly insists on not believing it without physical evidence, Luo Shuangyue has no means to do anything.
Because the physical evidence was indeed gone!
She couldn’t offer any convincing evidence to make her sister believe she was her brother!
What if… she just stopped hiding? A thought popped into Luo Shuangyue’s mind.
Not finding a way to continue the concealment, it seemed she could only come clean!
As long as she secretly tells her sister about this and makes her promise to keep it a secret, that would be enough, right? Covering her head, Luo Shuangyue let out a distressed sound.
The reason… For the reason, she could say she was chosen by a magical gem to become a magical girl, secretly guarding the peace and tranquility of the city!
After all, Dark Butterfly’s transformation is quite similar to that of a magical girl, and it should definitely be sufficient to fool Luo Shuangxing, that little girl who knows nothing.
“I hope she won’t take this to heart; otherwise, it really can only be this way.”
