Early morning.

In the deserted street, in the quiet space where a birdsong would be heard from time to time, there was a very rhythmic beat in the backyard of Harusaki's house.

"One, two, one, two—"

In the courtyard where you can see the Kiryu family next door, Chiwa Harusaki is doing her daily homework in sportswear that is easy to move around.

Stretching muscles, moving joints, and rehabilitation-like movements are habits that have been cultivated since that accident in the summer.

Originally, it was jogging around the street, but it had been canceled at Ruita's strong request, and only occasionally when the two of them exercised together in the morning, Ruita would run a little lap with Chiwa on the inner side of the street.

Thinking that his childhood friend is always very nervous and pays attention to the appearance around him, Qianhe will feel a warm current flowing slowly in his heart.

However, thinking of the reason for the recent reduction in morning exercise time, Natsukawa Mashiro's casual expression appeared in Chihuahua's mind, which made Chiwa feel a burst of anger, and it was the unpleasant face of Hasegawa Kitty who took away part of the hatred value, because of the way, so Kitty now often appears at Kiryu's house, replacing Chiwa and Ruita, who went out early because of morning exercises.

And Chiwa vaguely noticed that the eaglet's mood when she was with Rui Tai was always higher than usual, and her eyes were full of inexplicable enthusiasm when she looked at Rui Tai.

- Absolutely, right, yes, question, question.

Although Ruita, who has a fossil-level dull and immobile mountain, doesn't seem to be aware of it, and just treats Kitty as a same-sex friend like Smoke, but what the other side thinks, the ghost knows.

If the woman who suddenly pops out of the house takes the lead, you can snatch it back, but if you are bent by the man who suddenly pops up, you can only kill the other party and then commit suicide.

Qianhe won't say the kind of insincere nonsense like "I wish you happiness", compromise is only what losers do, and in the girl's heart, the current situation is just a "disadvantage".

Flushing the murderous spirit of the bamboo knife in his hand, Chiwa began to seriously consider the feasibility of humanely destroying the Hasegawa Kitty.

The kendo club does not have special requirements for exercising the leg muscles like the track and field club, and the body is only moved so that the stiff joints will not be sprained in the following activities, so the quality of appropriate exercise is more important than the quantity.

After sweating a little and turning Ryo Natsukawa and Kitaka Hasegawa, who were imaginary enemies in their minds, into a restrictive picture that needed to be mosaic, Chiwa stopped waving the bamboo knife in her hand before she began to feel out of breath from exhaustion, sat down in the open corridor, picked up the wet towel that had been prepared at the beginning and buried her face in it.

Then he looked up in the direction of Kiryu's house.

The windows on the second floor were open, while the other one directly below was still tightly closed.

"Really, Ruijun hasn't gotten up yet."

Although she said complaining, the Chihuahua's eyes rolled bonily.

"There's really no way, there's really no way, there's no way, there's no way."

Repeating that there was no way, as if to emphasize to someone that this was definitely not a sneak run, Chiwa quickly packed up the basket with towels and miscellaneous items.

"I see, it's a mission from God."

At the Kiryu family's dining table, So'er couldn't help but smile and talk to Ruita.

“…… That's right, and a surprise woman. ”

"Indeed, the man before also mentioned that it was because of an accident that he took the place of the original god to fulfill his responsibilities."

“…… It's really convenient enough, the so-called gods. ”

"Ruita."

“…… What's wrong. ”

"Here you go, let's get a towel."

“…… Thank you. ”

Ruita took the towel from Soa'er's hand and covered her forehead, which was swollen from being given a bamboo knife.

"By the way, it's a disaster, that."

Looking at Ruitai's purple forehead and innocent expression, Song'er finally couldn't help laughing.

Hearing this, Sora, who rushed to Ruita's room, was stopped by Chiwa, who rushed out and had a surprisingly red face, and although the girl's defense was incoherent, in the fragmented words, Sora, who had a lot of experience in such incidents, still accurately grasped the situation.

So'er persuaded the panicked Chiwa to enter the bathhouse, and during the time that Rui Tai woke up naturally, put on her clothes and felt out of the room, the girl had been leisurely preparing breakfast.

"Is that what the gods do?"

Ruita was a little embarrassed and wanted to get away from the topic.

"No, most of the missions have a definite goal and time limit, and the severity and options can't be compared, but sometimes it's worse in terms of difficulty."

“…… Doesn't that solve the problem at all? ”

Soa'er's words made Ruita's mood fall to the bottom.

"I can't say that, after all, there are helpers—ah!"

So'er suddenly screamed and jumped.

"What's wrong?"

No matter what time it is, a calm and indifferent look will be so discolored, and a sense of foreboding appeared in Ruitai's heart.

"Ruita!"

“…… How. ”

"If, after that, there is an absolute option for something to fall from the sky, remember to choose [girl]!"

Song Er said in a very strong tone.

“…… Ha? ”

"Be sure to choose [Girl]!"

So'er leaned forward and stared at Ruita extremely seriously, her round eyes containing courage that could not be refused.

"Uh, this ......"

Because the loungewear was borrowed from the house, the neckline, which was a little fat for the slenderness of the collarbone, was open, so that Ruita didn't know where to look.

In a word, it is the type that looks thin in clothes.

"Oops, I've seen something good."

At this terrible and embarrassing moment, an untimely voice of satisfaction suddenly sounded.

"Aunt Tsuko!"

"Excuse me?"

Cheng Xing, who couldn't guess his age, squinted his eyes, walked into the restaurant with a leisurely expression on his face, sat on the chair and looked with interest at Rui Tai, who tilted his head back and his face was getting redder and redder, and he blinked his eyes in confusion.

"What are you talking about?"

Song'er frowned, because Yanzi often plays tricks on Song'er's relationship, so the two are more like communicating as friends than elders.

"Female college students lying on top of high school boys in adolescence are pretty good material."

The playful man blinked.

"Huh?"

It seems that only then did she realize that her upper body had almost completely fallen on Ruitai's body.

"Shshshshsh——!"

Realizing this, the sonata jumped backwards with an astonishing momentum.

"Oh, I originally thought that Song'er was too boyish, but I didn't expect there to be a very girly place."

Tsuiko said with a look of surprise.

"No, I, I'm ——!"

However, the expression that jumped away from Ruita's side revealed that she had only realized something, and her cheeks, which had been flushed, turned pale because of the blow.

“…… Report? ”

The girl's eyes gradually moistened with unwillingness.

"-I'm not going to be shy about that!!"

Suddenly he shouted to himself.

"Wow——?!"

"Ah~☆"

Then he pounced and took Rui Tai in his arms.

Before the vision fell into darkness because of the soft touch, Ruitai's ears heard the cheers of Yuzi who was not afraid of making a big fuss.

“…… Ruijun. ”

At the same time, there was the murmur of a demon that sent chills down the spine.
