The Righteous Group’s Pet Suddenly Realizes: The Villain is Actually Me

“Troupe Leader, will you be performing in the theater in the future?”

After being advised by the Troupe Leader not to approach the two abnormal girls casually, Ye Xing continued to follow him around.

“No, this is our resting place. We have to go outside for performances.”

“Why?”

“Because no one comes to this theater, so we have to actively go out to attract the audience’s attention. Unfortunately, our performances don’t seem to be well-received.”

“Is that so? But they’re so wonderful…”

In fact,

Star Eclipse phenomena cannot be noticed by ordinary people.

All performances by the Tragedy Shadow Troupe are essentially Star Eclipse phenomena.

Ordinary people are only affected by their power, that is, mental pollution, which allows them to observe these anomalies.

Generally, only one type of person can resist this mental pollution and see the new essence, which is the so-called performance.

Only Star bearers have the necessary identity to see the new world.

And most Star bearers are Night Watchers, whose duty is to resolve Star Eclipses. How would they have the leisure to appreciate the Tragedy Shadow Troupe’s performances?

It’s a life-or-death situation as soon as they meet.

Only Night Watchers can become audience members, but Night Watchers are also the ones who hinder their performances, forming a closed loop.

But now,

A completely clueless rookie Night Watcher has met the Troupe Leader and expressed sincere praise and affection.

Thus, the Rising Sun Theater welcomed their first audience member, Ye Xing.

Up until now, Ye Xing still thinks this is just a strange troupe, not feeling any danger.

“Hmm… No one likes your performances…?” Ye Xing found it pitiful.

It’s a theater troupe without a single loyal audience member, no one looking forward to their performances.

She could already imagine the scene of them performing outside, with passersby treating them coldly.

It felt somewhat tragic, as if denying the identity of the troupe members.

The Troupe Leader had mentioned that he wanted to bring joy to many audience members through his performances. This dream was simple, but now it seemed difficult to realize.

If it were Ye Xing, she would probably have changed her dream by now.

As she pondered, Ye Xing gradually made up her mind, mustering courage in her heart.

“Um… Troupe Leader, if you think no one likes watching your performances, don’t forget that I’m here. I like watching them, I can be your audience. I’ll always support you in the future!”

Ye Xing’s face was already showing an adorable blush.

This was like a public execution.

It takes a lot of courage for a socially awkward person to say such embarrassing things.

After saying it, Ye Xing already wanted to bury her head in the ground.

“Ugh~”

If the Troupe Leader laughed, she would definitely flee at top speed.

Just thinking about it made her feel so embarrassed!

But the Troupe Leader didn’t mock her, instead he smiled gently.

“Little audience member, on behalf of the entire Rising Sun Troupe, I thank you for your support. I’m deeply moved. This makes me feel that rather than showing our brilliant performances to those false audience members who won’t feel joy, it’s better to show them only to you, our adorable little spectator. Your joy alone is worth it to us.”

The Deceiver and the Gentleman were standing not far away, seemingly able to hear the conversation.

After hearing Ye Xing’s statement, both of them smiled in tacit agreement.

A kind of acknowledgment?

It was the first time they had heard someone say such things.

It didn’t feel bad at all.

Back to Ye Xing’s side.

Hearing the Troupe Leader’s words, Ye Xing felt a bit embarrassed, unconsciously twirling her hair.

“Hehe… You’re making me blush.”

“How about this, little audience member? I hereby formally invite you to join our troupe. You don’t need to perform, just watch our performances. Be our theater’s only audience member. If there are new performances, you’ll be the first to watch. What do you think?”

“Eh?”

Ye Xing’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, then slowly understood his words.

“Join the troupe… But I’m very lazy, I like staying at home, so I might not be able to come every day.”

“That’s alright, you can come whenever you want. The theater doors will always be open for you, we won’t restrict your freedom.”

“Really? Then I can join.”

In Ye Xing’s understanding, this kind of “joining” was just in name only, belonging to the category of people who could be there or not.

Since it wasn’t a job, it was fine.

Even if there was no salary, it didn’t matter. Wasn’t it better to have free performances to watch?

It could be used to alleviate boredom when feeling idle, which had many benefits.

The Troupe Leader revealed a pleased smile.

“Then from now on, you’re a member of our troupe. We have a habit in our troupe of addressing each other by codenames, just like you call me Troupe Leader.”

“Alright, I don’t mind.”

Ye Xing even thought this habit was cool, which really appealed to her as an anime enthusiast.

“Then from now on, you’ll be called the Spectator when addressing others outside. Let everyone know our troupe has such a member, and we’ll call you Audience, how about that?”

“The Spectator? That somehow hits the spot for me. Thank you, I really like it.”

Ye Xing felt that since becoming a young girl, her life had started to become rich and colorful.

First, her other self, Ye Lan, joined the Night Watchers and made a friend in Ling Miao.

Now Ye Xing had joined a seemingly great theater troupe and met several friendly colleagues.

One side represented the extraordinary.

The other side represented the ordinary.

This was something she had never experienced before.

Just as Ye Xing was feeling excited, she suddenly thought of something and took out her phone to check the time.

“Eh? Is it this late already? I haven’t eaten yet…”

Ye Xing only then realized her stomach was in a state of hunger, and could only apologize to the Troupe Leader.

“Um, I’m very sorry, but I need to go back now. I’ve remembered this place, and I’ll definitely come if I have time. Let’s meet again next time.”

“If that’s the case, we can only part temporarily. I look forward to your return.”

“Goodbye!”

After a simple farewell, Ye Xing turned and left.

Her petite figure gradually disappeared from view.

The Troupe Leader quietly watched her leaving silhouette, suddenly remembering something.

“I suddenly forgot, I was supposed to give her a solo performance. Well, let’s leave it for next time.”

The Deceiver and the Gentleman walked over.

The Deceiver asked, “Troupe Leader, how did you find such an interesting audience member?”

“It was fate.”

The Gentleman smiled gently, “The Spectator, huh? I don’t dislike polite children. She’s a very good audience member.”

At this moment, except for the two abnormal members, the Rising Sun Troupe members had already acknowledged a certain pure and simple young girl.

Ye Xing, who was on her way home, hadn’t realized she had joined such a strange organization.

Now she just wanted to go home and fill her stomach.

It wasn’t appropriate to go to a restaurant at such a late hour.

Better to go home and wait obediently for takeout.
