Both Kazuya and even Ayase herself regarded Ayase's situation this time as a complete farce. It's like the kind of natural or unusually pure side that the intelligent character inadvertently reveals, and when the misunderstanding is resolved, then for the person who made this decision, there is no other idea except to be embarrassed.

However, neither of them noticed that this abnormal performance of Ayase was already the second time. The kind of inexplicable trust and imitation of scenes in anime or games just reflects the instability of Ayase's mental state. On the day of the previous date between Ayase and Kazuya, Ayase deliberately imitated the image of the character of the sister attribute in the game, of course, the result was the same as this time, and it ended in a failure that could not be understood by Kazuya.

Even if Kazuya noticed the similarities of the two situations, he would only think that it was an unexpected inexperience of Ayase in this regard, and would not notice the kind of real fear that his sister was hiding deep inside.

This fear, which even Ayase herself doesn't realize, is a fear that everyone has a common hobby on the other hand, but can't intervene in herself. His best friend, and his brother, both have a fanatical hobby of the second dimension, and when the two discuss these things, they can't intervene. And the problem is not only here, since Ayase learned of Kazuya's interest in the house, Ayase has found that Kazuya's investment in this area is much deeper than he imagined, and even the people who have the best relationship with Kazuya are also people who are deeply involved in this area.

Whether it's the level of devotion to Eiri when Kazue was also kidnapped, or the degree of Kirinona's unexpected integration into the club when she went on a club visit by herself, and even the black cat who doesn't have much contact with Kazuya can also establish a close connection through the interest of Kazuya in this area, all of this makes Ayase, who originally thought that she was the one who knew Kazuya the most, suddenly became overwhelmed.

In the beginning, Ayase's method was the easiest to learn and understand, but, until now, despite watching some games and anime that were regarded as classics by the two of them at the recommendation of Kirino and Kurotani, Ayase still couldn't understand the interesting things about these things other than clumsy imitations. This state makes her both sad and helpless, and the so-called somewhat natural state shown in front of Kazuya is not so much a non-acceptance of this kind of thing, but a helpless reaction to the two-dimensional world that she can't fit into and likes.

The brother who has always known and cared the most about himself, suddenly appeared in an unknown field of his own, and for this unknown field, he worked hard for a long time but couldn't step into it, this panicked mood, secretly lurking in the deepest part of Ayase's heart, different from the jealousy of the pear pear that has been suppressed by Ayase's self, this feeling, even Ayase himself is not aware of it.

Of course, as long as neither of them noticed, at least for now, Kazuya and Ayase still returned to a more normal conversation between brothers and sisters.

"Well, so, my brother's dress today was complained about by Yingli Li's seniors, right?"

"Ah, that, it can't be considered a complaint, right? Anyway, she just mentioned it. Kazuya, who felt that his outfit today seemed to be the focus of Ayase's attack, hesitated to avoid answering Ayase's question.

"What do you mean by 'mentioning it', and what do you mean by that?"

"Don't care about these details, in fact, Ying Lili doesn't care too much about these!" Kazuya recalled the scene at the time with a little headache.,In his impression,When Ying Lili mentioned his clothes, it seemed that this dress was not formal enough when she went to meet the editor.,The complaint about his clothes is certain.,But can it be regarded as dissatisfaction with wearing this dress to go on a date?,And I'm not sure about this.。

"Really, anyway, I was so embarrassed to tell me that I was disgusted by my seniors, right?" Ayase pursed her lips and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Hey, it's really not what you think, that guy Yingli Li, but it's even sloppier than you think, so she didn't be so harsh on what I was wearing."

"Oh-" Ayase stretched out her voice and put on a sly expression, "It turns out that my brother thinks of Eiri Riri-senpai like this!" Looks like I'll be able to sue my seniors in the future! ”

"Ahh ”

"Eh, but on this point, I remember that Senior Sister Hui told me a long time ago, if you can catch my brother's handle, then it's always right to catch a few more? Looks like I've done this before? ”

"Megumi Kato, I still hope you don't show your presence inexplicably at such a time!" Feeling this kind of deep malice that seems to belong to the "Dark Kato" instilled in Ayase, Kazuya can only silently add a small circle to his current neighbor in his heart.

"However, if my brother really doesn't want to answer, then it's okay not to answer!" As if sensing Kazuya's deflatedness, Ayase showed a somewhat happy smile and said.

And looking at Ayase's expression, Kazuya was also a little relieved: "That's right, my sister should be so cute!" ”

"Well, because according to Senior Sister Hui, if you force your brother too hard, then it may be better to loosen it up a little, and if the strength is properly grasped, then my brother will not only not be disgusted by the persecution you just did, but will also give you extra points because of your empathy!"

"If that's what you really think, then don't say it! Also, return the compliment I just gave you! And, add one more to your list of prohibited relationships, Megumi Kato! Don't let that seemingly harmless guy who is actually the best at trading instill in you all sorts of weird and mind-blowing ideas! How could I not always notice this when she was in front of me? ”

"However, has Senior Sister Hui really mastered the hearts of the people?" At this time, as if he had a feeling, Ayase suddenly sighed leisurely and said.

"Ayase, let me make sure first, isn't this just another statement that Kato asked you to prepare in advance when he told you that I had this reaction?" The story of the wolf coming is still in my ears, so looking at Ayase's words with some emotion, Kazuya is a little confused, after all, the two times of Ayase just now seem to be full of kindness, but in fact, some naughty words make him really a little overwhelmed.

However, this time, Ayase just looked at Kazuya a little strangely and said, "How could this be taught by Senior Sister Hui, it's just my feeling." ”

"Uh, what do you mean?"

"Well, my brother doesn't know yet?" Ayase glanced at Kazuya deeply, and then, he stopped talking, "Well, but it's not necessarily, maybe Ayase is thinking too much!" ”

"What the hell is going on? Why do girls always have to talk like this? ”

"Because girls always have their own uncertain little secrets, and besides, it's not right for a girl to chew the root of her tongue behind her back!" Ayase smiled lightly, "Also, didn't my brother just now also want to tell me what Eiri Riri-senpai said about your clothes?" So, my brother is not qualified to complain about Ayase! ”

"This one is obviously different, isn't it?" Kazuya complained, but he also knew that Ayase also had his own strange persistence, and if he had to ask at this time, he might not get a satisfactory result.

"Hawkers, forget it, anyway, according to what Ayase said, Kato can't control people's hearts or anything, which should be a good thing, right? At least no one wants to have a so-called person around them who can be counted as a last resort! And Kato really just likes to joke in these places, and he still has a clear grasp of the general atmosphere, so it doesn't matter if he pursues it so far, right? ”

"So, then again, where did my brother and Ying Lili go on a date today?" Ayase, who opened the conversation, was obviously more excited, after all, in fact, the brother and sister chatted more freely like this, and it had not appeared for a long time, so Kazuya was also happy to continue talking with Ayase.

It's just that the topic mentioned by Ayase made Kazuya feel a little awkward to some extent.

And also at this time remembered that before going out, there were more or less ghosts who made gods, whether it was him or Kirino, they all hid it from Ayase about Kirino's invitation to help participate in the discussion of the editorial department, and before going out today, Kazuya deliberately concealed the focus of Kirino's commission on the grounds of dating Eiri Riri.

"Uh, isn't it inconvenient to say?" Looking at Kazuya, whose face had obviously become a little strange, Ayase touched the hair on the back of her head with some uneasiness, "I didn't mean to, uh, this, I'm just a little curious!" Because if my brother and Eiri Senpai go out on a date, it's always hard for me to imagine what the two of you will do together, because I feel that if the two of you are together, it seems that it is more likely that you will watch the anime together, but you are indeed going out, so I am a little curious-"

"-It's nothing, I'm really out with Yingli Li, and it's natural for you to have this kind of curiosity." Originally, it was okay to follow Ayase's words and downplay the topic, but at this time, some ghosts spit out such a sentence.

And as soon as this sentence came out, He also secretly complained in his heart: "Hey, are you stupid? Ayase doesn't want to mention it, but you still have to take the initiative to say it, isn't this forcing you to lie to Ayase? Ayase is the one who hates liaring the most! ”

But,I don't know if it's because I've refused to answer Ayase's question once before.,Although I'm constantly denying myself in my heart.,But on the mouth,,And also opened his mouth a little forcefully: "But what you said Ayase also makes sense.,I'm really not the kind of person who likes to go to various playgrounds to run around-of course, if Eiri Ri wants to draw material for her fandom, that's an exception.,So,Uh,Let's go.,I went to the machine hall of the game that she and I used to go to when we were kids.。 ”

"You're talking about the one not far from our house? Going on a date somewhere that close? ”

"Yes, that's it!" When Ayase's questioning just came out, Kazuki regretted it even more, he was not good at lying, and according to Ayase's initial dialogue, he chose the location of the game machine hall, however, he didn't notice that for the first date between the two people, the choice of this location was really a little too hasty. However, he still tried his best to make up for his loopholes, "Well, the situation is like this, at the beginning we did want to go shopping together somewhere or something, but you also know that Ying Lili that guy has a phobia of crowds in places like shopping malls, and I'm not good at dealing with this kind of thing, so we quickly came out of the mall, but it was still early at this time, so we thought about it, and just went to the game machine hall to spend some time, In the end, the date becomes a game, ahaha, haha! ”

"Oh, I see!" Ayase nodded in realization.

"Well, that's it, it's a bit bad, isn't it?" Looking at Ayase, who seemed to accept this answer, Kazuya wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile.

"What do you mean by something that's bad! It's just terrible to die for! However, what Jean didn't expect was that this "fact" was exchanged for Ayase's next reaction.

"I really didn't expect that my brother, the eldest brother of Ayase, who originally thought he should be the greatest person in the world, would do such a tasteless thing on his first date! It's so bad! ”

"Uh, I think Ying Lili is having a lot of fun, too-"

Just because you're having fun doesn't mean you're really satisfied! She may not care too much about what you wear, but she will definitely be happier if you dress up more formally. Also, what girl wouldn't love that kind of planned romantic date? Didn't you? Like you, you're halfway shopping with your girlfriend and then sneaking out to play games with two people, I don't think even a dead house can do that badly, right? ”

"Ah, that, Ayase?"

"-Don't interrupt me, brother, although Ayase's previous proposal to help you with the date with Yingli Riri's predecessor was somewhat misguided, but this time, because my brother's performance is really bad, so I think I really need to meddle in the date, before the next date, I will make arrangements for my brother and Yingli Riri-senpai, you two don't know how to date, don't break the intention of the word dating, understand?"

"Ayase, listen to me—"

"-You just have to answer the question of yes or no, brother, do you hear me?"

"Ah, well, yes!"

Kazuya replied a little dejectedly, looking at his sister who didn't know whether it was better to be energetic or angry, he could only complain about the bitter fruit of his unnecessary lie just now.
