[CH.3] Senior sister
The next morning, Han Huayang transferred 5,000 yuan to his mother and spent a long time explaining the origin of this money to her over the phone.
"Mom, I really didn't take out a loan... No, I didn't borrow money from my classmates... Gambling is out of the question too. I'm not a scumbag like Dad. This is a bonus from my boss."
"Your workplace gives bonuses? It's only the middle of the month, and they're already giving out bonuses?"
"Mom, please don't worry about it. I have to go to the company in a while, so I'll hang up now."
"Wait, about this money—"
Han Huayang hung up the phone and looked at the chat record with his mother, feeling complicated.
He hadn't told his family about being a magical girl.
Not only did he have to transform into a girl, but he also had to say various lines, make gestures, and pretend to be innocent and cute, as if he had just turned sixteen. This behavior was too embarrassing, and every time he transformed back, Han Huayang felt extremely awkward, let alone telling anyone else.
Moreover, the Kate had specifically warned Han Huayang. The work of a magical girl was more like that of an idol, and the persona was the most crucial part. If it was revealed that the person behind the female persona was actually a man, Alice would never be able to work as a magical girl again.
.....
Kate's Magical Girl Agency was located on a narrow street in the city. There was a cake shop downstairs, and next door was a mahjong parlor. The old building didn't have good soundproofing, and you could always hear the sound of people playing mahjong next door late at night.
The agency had two floors, with the second floor reserved for the rest area for internal staff, and the first floor serving as the place to meet and handle various requests.
However, very few people came to visit Kate's agency.
Han Huayang climbed the stairs with a weary body. As usual, on the first floor in the meeting room, various costumes and props were haphazardly strewn in the corners.
Costume design sketches were spread out on a square table, weighed down by a pile of liquor bottles. Alcohol had spilled all over, and half of the table's papers were soaked and stuck together.
A woman with disheveled hair, wearing a tank top and panties, was sprawled out on the sofa.
She had a blanket wrapped around her waist and held a bottle of alcohol in her hand. This person was Han Huayang's senior, the magical girl who had deceived him into this, Li Meiting.
The room was filled with the pungent smell of alcohol, so Han Huayang opened the window and tried to wake up his senior, Li Meiting.
"Senior, it's time to wake up."
"Oh, it's Little Han, what time is it now?"
Li Meiting rolled over groggily, and her hands naturally wrapped around Han Huayang's neck, pulling him into her embrace.
Han Huayang's cheek was pressed against her ample chest. The strong smell of alcohol enveloped him, almost making him suffocate. Han Huayang had to exert some effort to pull his head away.
"Senior, how much did you drink last night? It's not even 9 AM yet. Let me take you upstairs to rest."
"Just a little bit, really just a tiny bit."
Senior made an obscene gesture with her hand, mocking the male genitalia, and laughed foolishly.
"I mean, why don't you just transform into Alice so I can hold you? I want to smell Alice's scent and lick Alice's little cheeks."
Li Meiting cooed in a playful voice, making Han Huayang cringe. He avoided his senior's reaching hands and admonished her, "Senior, you really need to sober up."
"No need, just transform into Alice for me. I want to hug Alice~"
Despite her current disheveled appearance, Li Meiting was considered unattainably beautiful in the eyes of outsiders.
She had a stunning figure and, due to regular exercise, had an extremely graceful physique. As the student council president, she had always maintained a ladylike image at school, leaving an unforgettable impression on many people.
Only Han Huayang knew that Li Meiting wasn't an ice queen. Her personality was carefree, and she had three major hobbies: drinking, singing, and e-sports.
Among the girls he knew, Li Meiting was the least girly girl. She didn't date or engage in any romantic relationships.
Before becoming magical girl colleagues, Li Meiting used to play ranked games with Han Huayang every day. He had always treated her like a brother.
Just half a month ago, after Han Huayang's father had disappeared, leaving behind a mountain of high-interest loans that needed to be repaid, Li Meiting had recommended her agency to him. Han Huayang hadn't hesitated to agree, after all, how could he deceive his brother?
Although Han Huayang had indeed received a large sum of money to solve his urgent problems, he had also given up a part of his soul.
Currently, he had to not only fight monsters as magical girl Alice but also participate in various idol activities to promote Kate's Magical Girl Agency.
What was more crucial was that there were only two magical girls at Kate's agency, Li Meiting and Han Huayang. As the senior, Li Meiting had delegated most of the work to Han Huayang, leaving her with a carefree life while Han Huayang suffered.
And beyond work, Han Huayang also had to take care of his drunken senior.
Guiding Li Meiting into the bathroom, Han Huayang carefully wiped her face with a wet towel. Then he poured her a cup of hot water and helped her to the second-floor bed to rest.
Throughout the process, the intoxicated senior was as gentle as a kitten, enjoying Han Huayang's attentive care. She was practically a cat, clinging to Han Huayang, her fingers playfully scratching his face, almost meowing.
When Han Huayang had covered her with a blanket and was about to leave, she suddenly grabbed his wrist.
Li Meiting, with a mouth full of alcohol, said in a daze, "Even if you take care of me like this, I won't start liking you unless you become Alice to accompany me."
"Senior, I'm not pursuing you."
"Don't you want to pursue me?"
Han Huayang turned his face away and whispered, "I don't have those feelings for you."
"So, do you dislike me?"
"If I disliked you, I wouldn't be taking care of you, right?"
"Then can't you transform into Alice to take care of me? Become a girl and keep me company, okay? I want Alice~"
Li Meiting once again pulled Han Huayang into her embrace. Due to the unstable center of gravity, Han Huayang fell onto his senior.
Her arm pressed against Han Huayang's neck, making it impossible for him to lift his head. The scent of strong alcohol mixed with the soft touch of her body enveloped Han Huayang completely.
Just as Han Huayang was trying to break free from his senior, a streak of light shot out from the glass, and the cat-like form of Kate appeared on the cushion placed in the center of the table.
Kate stood tall, her body curled up like a ball, as if she were a venerable presence.
"You two seem quite lively."
"Boss! Can you do something about Senior? In her current state, I can't do anything else. I have a performance tonight."
In the face of Han Huayang's protest, Kate remained unfazed.
"Why do you need to do anything else? You have such a beautiful senior willing to embrace you. Don't you have any thoughts at all? Are you still a man? Normal people would have already... (**beep sound**)."
As a cat-like sprite who spoke with a mature woman's voice, Kate didn't hesitate when using that kind of vocabulary. Han Huayang, on the other hand, blushed in an instant.
"I-I would never do that! Senior is like a sister to me, how could I do such a thing to her?"
