Chapter 298 Who says only those standing in the light are...magical girls?
Early on a weekend morning, Uchiha Rin woke up Hana, who was still sleeping in, and then took her to Yukino's house downstairs. He then changed his clothes and prepared to go out...
"Good morning, Ling-kun! It was really difficult to get you out here~" Hayasaka Ai complained helplessly as she changed into casual clothes.
"Is that so?"
Hayasaka Ai pouted, "I can't just run off to your place like Chitanda! What can I do? I'm a maid in the Shinomiya family. I have to work every day. Luckily, Kaguya-sama promised me I could take a day off."
Yukino and Uchiha Ryo are neighbors, and Chitanda has been staying at Yukino's house for the past two days, but Hayasaka Ai can only do her daily work at Shinomiya's house...
"So the weekend is my time!!" Hayasaka Ai raised her head and then turned around in front of Uchiha Ryo.
Although it's not good to praise yourself, Hayasaka Ai is very confident in her appearance, especially with the cute outfit she specially chose for today.
"How are you feeling?"
"Hmm, it's very pretty, but I still prefer your maid outfit to your fashionable casual wear."
Hayasaka Ai nodded. "What's this? You like uniforms?"
"Don't underestimate uniforms! Uniforms are every man's dream; you could say every man harbors a dream of uniform allure!"
"So Ling Jun is a maid?"
Uchiha Ryo chuckled, "I have a wide range of hobbies, and I'm open to other things too. I'm not good at describing them verbally, so how about we go buy some new clothes?"
So, in order to upgrade Hayasaka Ai's "Ai-to-Ai XP System," the two decided to go to the shopping mall to update their outfits.
So today's main task is to treat Hayasaka Ai like a doll that can be dressed up?
"Let me make this clear first, I can't listen to everything you say. My own opinion is also very important!" Hayasaka Ai stated her bottom line.
"Of course, am I the kind of person who would let you wear indecent clothing? Or you can name a category and I'll choose from it."
Hayasaka Ai fell into deep thought.
"Categorization? Not to brag, but I can pull off many styles. If I really had to categorize it... I'd like to wear the glamorous outfits of movie heroines!"
As a maid, Hayasaka Ai was instilled with the idea of being a lower-class person from a young age, and that it was enough for her to just follow behind Kaguya-sama as a servant.
But Hayasaka Ai also dreamed of being a leading lady! She wanted to be the female lead in a movie, cherished by a handsome male lead.
"The movie's female lead..."
The two soon arrived at the clothing section of the shopping mall, where Uchiha Ryo was carefully selecting women's clothing that suited her taste.
"Hmm, this will do!" Uchiha Ryo quickly found the outfit he liked.
Hayasaka Ai took a step back. "Um... I may be a professional maid, but I don't accept cosplay. And what about costumes worn by female protagonists in anime and movies?!"
Especially these brightly colored clothes that will definitely turn heads—I'm not a magical girl! Why would I wear something like this?
Uchiha Ryo adjusted glasses that weren't even there. "What magical girl? This is a genuine villain outfit, a bold and dark combination, plus a little devil's tail and bat wings, it suits you perfectly."
"Dark themes are all the rage! Who says only those standing in the light are true magical girls?!"
"Suitable for me... yeah right! I'd rather buy a traditional magical girl outfit than wear this. In short, I refuse to wear clothes that aren't much different from a swimsuit."
"Alright then, you said it yourself."
So Hayasaka Ai was forced to wear a yellow magical girl outfit... and Uchiha Ryo, with the exploratory spirit that all young people have, began to constantly change Hayasaka Ai's style.
Hayasaka the Gal, Hayasaka the Career Maid, Hayasaka the Innocent Schoolgirl, Hayasaka the Bound Magical Girl, Hayasaka the Captured Fairy, Hayasaka the Captured Heroine, Hayasaka the Trapped Female Investigator...
"Wait a minute! Isn't half of it wrong?" Hayasaka Ai came out of the fitting room and finally changed into her own clothes.
Uchiha Ryo was holding her phone, saving the photos.
"Yes, half of it is indeed due to my quirky sense of humor, sorry."
Hayasaka Ai crossed her arms. "You know that!"
Uchiha Ryo took the clothes to the front desk and separated the four sets of clothes at the back.
"I don't need the first three items, thank you. I'll take these four with me."
Thank you for your patronage!
Hayasaka Ai: "Huh???"
Uchiha Ryo chuckled. "Right? The first three outfits are just ordinary clothes, only the last four meet your requirements for the female lead in your movie!"
Carrying four costumes worn by the female lead in the movie, Uchiha Ryo sat on a bench with a refreshed expression, while Hayasaka Ai next to her ate a crepe with a disgruntled look on her face.
"Go back and change?"
Hayasaka Ai rolled her eyes at Uchiha Ryo, then devoured the crepe. "I suddenly have an idea. Grab your clothes and come with me. Let's go to Shimokitazawa!"
"You wouldn't be thinking of doing this, would you?"
"I'll have to wear it sooner or later anyway, so I'll see how it looks on other people first."
.....
So, inside the Starry Night Bar in Shimokitazawa, the band End of the Week was working on their second song and releasing the music video for their first song.
"Hey, little lonely one, we've come to see you!"
Hayasaka Ai swaggered in and saw Goto Ichiri sitting there, engrossed in writing lyrics, furiously scribbling something.
Following Loneliness, Guitar and Blue Planet, the band's second song, Gloomy Goodbye, with lyrics again written by Little Loneliness, is about to be released.
But before that.....
"Little Lonely One, our music video has over 500 views on the website now! Hmm? Hayasaka-san and Uchiha-san are here, please have a seat."
Nijika Ichi quickly found a chair and invited the guest to sit down. Then she started chatting with the outgoing Ai Hayasaka about the music video.
Hayasaka Ai took the phone. "That's really amazing, over 500 views..."
Little Lonely turned her head and gave an awkward smile. Actually, after the video was posted, Liang came over and urged her to keep refreshing the video on her phone, trying to increase the number of views and earn some money in the process.
While praising the music video as really good, Hayasaka Ai suddenly changed the subject.
"Since you haven't signed a contract yet, the music video is just intended to be played for free and attract attention. Why not shoot a different style instead?"
Hongxia tilted her head. "Other styles? What other styles can a music video have?"
Hayasaka Ai smiled, "For example, your costumes don't have to be so uniform; instead, you can have some semi-themed costume changes!"
Kita Ikuyo, who was listening in, raised her hand. "I've heard of that! For example, idol girl groups also change outfits and sing the same song, and sometimes the effect is even better!"
Changing clothes?
Ichi Nijika thought for a moment, "But we don't have many costumes, so there's no need to buy them specifically for shooting a music video."
