Chapter 236: Useless Confidentiality Agreement
After sending Marina home, Xue and Xiao Mo did not go back to their respective homes. Instead, they each left a clone to hide in a dark place near CiRCLE in case of emergency.
Then, the two discovered that Arisaki accompanied Kasumi back to CiRCLE at midnight, preparing to secretly take back the guitar.
How could the two's behavior escape the attention of the pretender group, and they were immediately caught red-handed by Tachibana Hibiki.
Tachibana Hibiki wanted to persuade the two to go back, but before she could say a few words, she was silenced by Arisaki's eloquent tongue.
In order to protect the safety of Arisaki and Kasumi, she had no choice but to find a reason to enter CiRCLE with them.
The next moment after the three entered CiRCLE, a large number of monsters that had appeared before suddenly emerged somewhere near CiRCLE.
The other four players who discovered the situation immediately launched an attack on them, but it seemed that because Xue was not there to secretly act as a router to buff them, the attacks of the four were not very effective.
Seeing this, Xue and Xiao Mo planned to manually take over the clones and transform into human form to support the four people.
But suddenly, Kasumi's classic Twinkle Little Star suddenly came out from CiRCLE.
The monsters who heard the song looked pained for some reason.
Although it was unclear why, the four pretenders seized this opportunity and wiped out all the monsters on the scene in one fell swoop.
Seeing this, Xue and Xiao Mo also breathed a sigh of relief.
……
Time passed quickly and it was the next morning. Since the second day of summer school this year happened to be Saturday, Xue and Xiao Mo did not need to go to school today.
However, not going to school does not mean that the two of them will not go to school. After all, they have already agreed with everyone in the club to shoot a promotional video for the second School Idol FES.
Looking at the promotional video script of director Sakurazaka, which looked like a special effects drama, Xue couldn't help but become very interested.
So, everyone in the club started shooting scenes all day long until night fell.
In the evening, everyone in the club had dinner together and then returned to their homes.
Xue and Xiao Mo had nothing to do, so they ran to the vicinity of CiRCLE to see what was going on. As a result, they ran into Xingge and Juli, who happened to be going out together and were about to be attacked by monsters and were at a loss.
Without saying a word, the two transformed in front of Xingge and Juli and dealt with the monster cleanly and neatly.
"..."
After the battle, the atmosphere naturally fell into a long silence.
"Um...you are Xiaoxue and Nana, right?"
Looking at the two people who had just easily destroyed the monster, Xingge and Juli could hardly believe their eyes.
"It's the truth. I know you two are very curious. Just listen to me."
Xingge and Juli pricked up their ears and listened to Xue's story very carefully. The more they listened, the more surprised and excited they became, completely forgetting how they looked when they just encountered the monster.
“…That’s probably what happened.”
"So, Captain, you and Nana are actually members of a mysterious organization that spans different parallel worlds, fights crime, and deals with supernatural events?!!"
"There's nothing wrong with you understanding it so simply."
"That monster just now..."
"He's one of our targets for this mission. Because he likes to approach from behind, we're temporarily calling him a 'stalker.'"
"Captain, is it okay to tell us these secrets? Will we get our memories erased like in the Men in Black movies?"
Hearing what Kikuri said, Xue couldn't help but laugh out loud and waved her hand.
"Kiri, you've watched too many movies. Normally, we wouldn't administer amnesia, but..."
As she spoke, a dark blue... holographic scroll (?) appeared in Xue's hand.
"You still have to sign a confidentiality agreement after going through the process. Remember to read the terms carefully."
"Ah, okay."
"That's what I was saying. How could you not sign anything?"
After carefully looking over the meaningless terms that Xue had improvised on the scroll, the two signed their names.
"OK, now you two are also insiders like Akane."
Hearing this, Xingge and Juli were stunned.
"Eh? Has Akane already known the identities of you two, Captain?"
"It was about two and a half months ago, around mid-June."
"That's it..."
"Anyway, try not to go out at night until the two of us notify you."
For the safety of her teammates, Xue still had to remind them.
"clear."
"Xiaoxue, you should also pay attention to safety when performing tasks!"
……
After secretly escorting the two back to their respective homes, Xue and Xiao Mo came to the vicinity of CiRCLE and conducted a careful investigation.
After confirming that there were no monsters for the time being, the two went to the temporary residence of the costume group in this world.
"Moses Moses, is anyone there?"
Hearing someone knocking on the door at this time, Tachibana Hibiki looked curiously at the camera screen on the side.
After seeing that the visitors were Xue and Xiao Mo, he opened the door with some surprise.
"Xue, Nana, good evening. How did you find this place?"
"Of course it was the man in black from the Xianjuan family who told us the address. How was it? Did your investigation go smoothly today?"
"Things went smoothly for now, but when I, Kirieka-chan, and Tiao-chan came back, we ran into a 'stalker' who was about to attack ordinary people."
"Huh? Please elaborate."
After listening to the three people's stories, Xue showed an expression of "I see."
"I see... To be honest, we both just encountered a stalker."
"Eh? Did you guys run into Xue too?"
"Well, those guys were about to attack us two bandmates, so we had to reveal our identities and take them all out."
"Eh? Xue, your identities..."
Hearing that Xue and Xiao Mo had revealed their identities again, the pretenders were stunned.
"It doesn't matter. Our organization doesn't have such strict requirements for this kind of situation. Normally, the most a witness would have to do is sign a useless confidentiality agreement."
"That's it..."
"What a lax organization, Death~"
"I agree."
"But then again, I really didn't expect you to actually go to Kasumi, Yushina and the others to investigate."
"Eh? Yuki, Nana, do you know Kasumi and the others?"
Hearing that Xue and Nana seemed to be familiar with the members of those bands, the pretenders became a little curious.
"More than just knowing each other, I'm actually good friends with everyone from the bands that performed at CiRCLE yesterday. After all, both of our bands started out as student bands."
"Actually, if you want to gain their trust, just tell us our two names~"
"Is that so... We'll remember that."
