Chapter 187: Doubt
"Brother, something happened!" Ayase, who seemed to have become very well-behaved since the last time she chatted with her, said in a panicked voice.
"What's wrong?" Kazuya's heart kept mentioning his throat, you know, he couldn't remember the last time Ayase spoke to him in this tone, which also made him nervous immediately.
"That, I can't explain it clearly on the phone, so brother, can you come back a little bit?" Ayase said with some hesitation.
"Huh?" glanced at Shiyu on the side, and also tentatively asked for her opinion.
And Shi Yu could only shake his head helplessly, waved his hand, and gestured with his mouth: "If you want to do your own thing, then I can't stop you!" "Signal and do what you want to do.
"OK, no problem!" And with Shiyu's consent, Kazuya immediately agreed to Ayase on the other end of the phone.
"So, brother, hurry up!" Ayase's anxious voice made Kazuya's mood fall into a state of even more panic.
----------------------------- dividing line------------------------------
And also after leaving, there was a somewhat dull audio-visual classroom.
"Well, was Aragaki-san called back by Ayase again?" Kato said somewhat casually.
"Well, that's probably what it looks like, right?" Shi Yu also said a little helplessly, "Listening to his voice, I know that something seems to be in a hurry on the other side, right?" After all, it's a family affair! There is no way around it. ”
"But then why did Kasumigaoka-senpai show such an unhappy expression?"
"There's no way around that! When you think you can get the job done today with a little effort, and suddenly your assistant has something urgent, and your work has to be postponed until tomorrow, you won't be in a good mood, right? Shi Yu rolled his eyes and said.
"Hawkers, isn't it just that when someone is about to try their best to squeeze someone, but they find that someone has been called away by someone but can't stop it, and they feel very unwilling!" The swaying sound of Ying Lili came over.
"It seems like I haven't embarrassed you in a long time! Blonde Dog, are you so hungry for my blow? ”
"Kasumigaoka Shiyu, am I talking about you? Don't be too sensitive! Hum! Ying Lili said a little proudly, after all, when she encountered a similar situation before, it was Shi Yu who used this method to put her together, and now, this practice of using her way to treat her body also made her very happy.
"Unexpectedly, I haven't talked to you for a while, and your skills have grown a lot! Obviously, when I was abandoned, I was not in a few, and I was embarrassed to talk about my affairs, right? ”
"Well, Kato, what's going on with this?" After coming back to his senses, Lunya, who suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the audio-visual classroom had become tense, looked at the two people in front of him with some dumbfounded, and then, as usual, turned his gaze to Kato for help to regulate his emotions.
But Megumi Kato was still a little stunned looking at his phone, not knowing what he was thinking.
---------------------------- Dividing Line-------------------------------
The impact of this exodus on the atmosphere in the audio-visual classroom is not something that I want to care about. Now, he is just anxious to rush home, because he doesn't know what happened to Ayase.
Ayase's tense situation made Kazuya think of what thieves had entered the house, or what conflict she had with Kirino, but when Kazuya flew home to check the situation, he found that his reaction seemed to be a little too aggressive. Because, it seems that nothing is happening in the house, or rather, the normal is a little too normal.
The door lock at home is fine, there is no trace of looseness at all, after entering the door, I quickly glanced at the floor, and there is no obvious trace of footprints that are a little messy because of panic, and then I checked the various rooms, and there is nothing stolen, on the whole, there is no outsider invasion at home, which also makes him a little unclear about what happened.
Eventually, he had to knock on the door of Ayase's room with some caution and asked softly, "Ayase, what happened?" ”
After a long time, the door to Ayase's room finally opened, but it was not Ayase who came to open the door, but a red-haired girl with a ponytail tied to it.
"Come in!" With a tone of natural arrogance, the redhead girl said to Kazuya.
"What! This is obviously Ayase's room, right? How to make it the same as your room. Kazuya secretly complained in his heart, but he also knew who this person was in front of him, so he didn't take the other party's attitude too seriously.
That's right.,Kanako Laisu.,It's the girl who opened the door for Ayase.,It can be said that it's one of Ayase's pretty good friends.,Although this seems to be the first direct meeting between Kazuya and Kanako.,But whether it's from Ayase's mouth.,Or from Kazuya's only vague impression of his previous life.,He can know that Kanako is the kind of girl who is a little arrogant.,But it's also a more sincere girl.。
"You're Ayase's brother, aren't you? It doesn't feel as good as Kirino and Ayase said! It's just a very decent person! Damn, Kanako originally thought it would be a typical sports handsome guy or something, but it feels too ordinary, right? Before Kazuya was ready to say hello to Kanako, Kanako's somewhat casual phone came.
"Although I know that this guy can't hide his emotions," Kazuya said helplessly, holding his forehead, "but what you said is too hurtful, isn't it?" It's no wonder that only Ayase, who is exceptionally good-natured, and Kirino, who can be absolutely tolerant in front of people, can become her friends, right? ”
"Also, when your sister first called you back, she was obviously in a hurry! It's too bad to hesitate or something, isn't it? I think Kirino's brother is doing a lot better than you at this point! ”
"That's it! Kanako," Ayase frowned, interrupting Kanako's words and said, "Brother also has his own various things!" Moreover, in fact, this one thing is not a big deal! ”
"Cut, you just protect your brother!" Kanako glanced at Kazuya disdainfully.
"I don't know why, I feel like I'm suddenly hated!" And also a little helpless to look at his own situation.,It stands to reason that he's not the kind of typical athletic boy appearance that Kanako imagined.,It's more or less decent.,I haven't done anything to offend her before.,Sure enough, the girl's world is always incomprehensible?
However, Kanako's matter was not the focus of Kazuya's attention, so he quickly turned his head to look at Ayase and asked with some concern, "So, Ayase, what happened?" ”
"It's not a big deal! I was a little too nervous when I called you," Ayase said with some uncertainty, "but now that I think about it, maybe I'm overthinking it, right?" ”
"Say it! I'm listening! ”
"I think," Ayase said with a deep breath, "It's like someone has been peeping into the house recently, and when I entered the house with Kanako just now, I felt like a flash of light, and then, I don't know if it's my delusion, I feel like there's been a gaze staring at me." But I don't have any evidence, maybe I'm thinking too much, right? ”
Listening to Ayase's words, Kazuya immediately remembered the situation he encountered when he was teaching black cats to write novels before, and it was also a shadow of a flash of light very quickly, but at that time, he felt that it might be some kind of reporter paparazzi who paid attention to him, and there were no strange reports about himself in the future, so he didn't pay too much attention to it next.
However, Ayase's current discovery makes him feel that things are not as simple as he imagined. If you only pay attention to your own paparazzi, you will never risk being discovered by Ayase to take a photo, so if the light that took his photo last time and the light that took Ayase's photo are the same person, it can only mean that someone has set their eyes on their home, although I don't know if this happened to my parents, but, strictly speaking, this incident is not the "little thing" feeling that Ayase comforted herself just now.
So, he lowered his head a little seriously, and said to Ayase a little solemnly: "It's not necessarily that you think too much, because I've encountered this situation before, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and you also encountered it, which means that it's not accidental." ”
"Is that so?" Ayase covered her mouth in some surprise.
Although he felt that it was not so good to let Ayase be frightened because of his unreasonable speculation, Kazuya also knew that his sister, under the appearance that looked a little weak, hid a heart that was stronger than normal girls, so he just continued to ask: "So, do you have any other clues about the person who feels like he is following you?" ”
"If there has to be," Ayase nodded, frowning, and then, pulling a broken cigarette butt out of his pocket, said, "Can this be counted?" No one smoked in the house, but on the way back from the call to my brother, I saw such a broken cigarette butt thrown in the yard, and I also smelled smoke near my room, probably by the person who was following me. ”
"Is that so?" Kazuya dragged his head, "If it's a person who observes and tracks for a long time, and then shoots, it is true that he may have to smoke a cigarette and concentrate his energy, so is this a man?" However, throwing broken cigarette butts into the yard is a bit too careless! If you ask Kirino's father, I feel like I'll be able to find some clues from it, right? ”
"Ahem," and just as the brother and sister were pondering, Kanako's somewhat embarrassed cough rang out, with a hint of surprise, Kanako looked at Ayase with a sad face, "That, Ayase, why didn't you tell Kanako just now that you saw this broken cigarette butt!" This, this matter, Kanako is completely unaware of it! ”
"Huh? Not really! I also said, this cigarette butt was just picked up when I went back to the room, because there has never been such a thing at home, it's a little strange so I picked it up, if it wasn't for my brother reminding me just now, I would never have thought that this thing had anything to do with the incident just now," Ayase glanced at Kanako, who was a little panicked, and asked a little strangely, "So, does Kanako think there is something wrong with this cigarette butt?" ”
"Ah, I see, this, that," Kanako waved her hand in a panic and said, "Kanako doesn't know at all!" Kanako just thinks she's curious! Kanako didn't because this might be Kanako-ah, anyway, Kanako didn't know! ”
"Well," Ayase didn't seem to notice Kanako's particular situation, she just said casually, "Kanako should be careful, too!" I'm definitely going to ask the company to find you to model your debut in the future, if something weird happens before. ”
"Ahaha, Kanako has no problem! Ayase, you don't have to worry about that! And Kanako, still waving her arms a little exaggeratedly, kept shaking her head, and said, "Also, Ayase, I don't think you should pay too much attention to this cigarette butt detection or something, right?" After all, this matter is still in our guessing stage, and I always feel like it's a bit of a fuss to let Kirino's father check it out or something! ”
"Is that so?" Ayase glanced at Kazuya and asked with some uncertainty.
However, the current Kazuya just stared at Kanako with a serious look on his face, because, at this time, he was already a little aware, it seems, Kanako, there is also a hidden attribute, it is a girl who loves to smoke!
And thinking of Kanako's excitement when she saw the cigarette butt just now, although he didn't believe that this kind of voyeurism could be done by Kanako, some suspicions were inevitable.
"Kanako-san, huh? Can you tell me why you're so nervous about cigarette butts? ”
"Huh? Why do you want to say it! Although it seems to refute Kazuya very strongly, it can be seen by everyone that the current Kanako Raisu is not so reasonable.
And this situation also made Ayase on the side look at Kanako with suspicious eyes, with an incredible expression on her face, as if asking, "Is that so?" ”
