On Friday night, Mitsuki Umihara knocked on the door of his sister's room.

"Are you there?"

This was a knowingly question, he had actually watched Dome walk into the room.

The way Dome stays in Tokiwadai is different from that of his classmates. It is not rented in a hotel apartment, nor is it fully in a dormitory. Since her home is in College City, she is more akin to a semi-boarding house. That is, they will go home after school and then return to the dormitory before the curfew. At the same time, they will go home and live on Saturdays and Sundays. If you apply in advance, you can not return to the dormitory on weekdays like students who rent apartments. So now, she's at home. And for the next two days, I will also be with my family.

To be honest, Mitsuki Umihara hoped that she would not stay at all. However, her father thinks that she should still have more opportunities to get along with her classmates, and Haiyuan has no way to object to this.

"Yes, please wait a minute."

Still a rather polite and polite response, Dome opened the door.

"I told you you didn't have to do it at home, right?"

As a brother and sister who have a good relationship, Dome does seem too polite.

She is usually very beautiful even if she is simply wearing private clothes, and she is actually wearing pajamas today, and the lazy soft impression gives people a quite comfortable feeling, as if just looking at her will make people fall asleep in the soft feeling.

Sure enough, it's a girl who has her own unique charm no matter what she wears, and Kaihara believes that this is definitely not her boast, but something that anyone will agree with.

I walked into my sister's room and glanced at the computer screen. She looks like she's writing a thesis? A girl who hides in her room in her pajamas to write a paper during a break, how can this be evaluated?

In fact, it's not bad now, there was a time when her hard work was about to worry her family.

Anyway, it looks like he still often goes in and out of his sister's room. Generally speaking, this is not quite like a situation that exists between siblings, right?

"Excuse me, what's wrong?"

Qiong Nai, who was sitting on his bed, asked.

"It's this."

Kaihara handed the magazine in his hand to Dome No.

It is a well-known youth fashion magazine in the college city, and every school year there is an issue of the "New Recruit" supplement.

"Ah, this ......"

Dome looked a little blushing.

In this year's issue of "New Students", a new student from each of the five prestigious girls' schools in the garden has been invited as a model reader, depicting life in the garden of the school, which is known to outsiders as the "garden of the eldest lady".

Needless to say, Tokiwadai Junior High School is the finale. And it was Dome himself who appeared in the magazine as a representative of Tokiwadai.

In fact, Mitsuki Kaihara himself did not notice this, he has always been more interested in sports magazines. It wasn't until the classmates of the student council were flipping through the magazines that Ji Yanbi suddenly said to him: "Isn't this Sister Qiongnai?" This was when he got his attention.

The Umino in the magazine didn't dress up in any way, just maintained his most natural appearance on weekdays, and in a few photos he was even wearing a Tokiwadai school uniform. As a fashion magazine, it even seems a little out of place. However, it was expected to suit her. As she has always felt, she is not a girl who likes to follow fashion, but because of this, she has a charm that is not affected by the world. Obviously, the designer has grasped this precisely and expressed this charm to the fullest.

The magazine commented on Qiongno's outfit as "showing the charm of not compromising with the world in a way that suits him best".

I can really say it.

It may be rude to say that to the students of the other four schools that also appeared in the magazine. But I'm afraid that in everyone's opinion, the appearance of other girls is just to set off the dome of the finale. Although they have all done their best to show their cutest side. But as long as the dome appears, they will inevitably become foils.

No matter how hard they try, the real focus of this special issue of the Garden of the School House will only be the dome of Tokiwadai. In this case, Mitsuki Haihara is completely imaginable.

Probably because of this, Qiongno didn't like to make herself too noticeable in the past, and in Kaihara's opinion, this was a manifestation of her gentle character. So this time, as a model for a fashion magazine, it was a surprise to Umihara.

And to be honest, Mitsuki Umihara was inexplicably unhappy about Dono going to be a model for a fashion magazine, and even he couldn't tell why.

"Isn't it...... Weird? ”

Sensing Umihara's unhappiness, Dome asked with some uneasiness.

"How is that possible? Isn't that cute? Realizing that he had accidentally shown some undeserved emotions, Kaihara quickly made up for it and said, "It's just that I'm a little curious about why you agreed to do such a job." ”

"There are various reasons. Hey......" Qiong Nai bowed his head for a while, "I'm sorry, I lied." There's only one reason. ”

She raised her head, and her beautiful two-colored eyes looked at Mitsuki Umihara with vaguely complex emotions. After a slight pause, she continued:

"I wanted to find the stumbling and the clothes, but I didn't have any clues, so I had to do it this way. And...... It also costs money to delegate to others......"

Her answer made Mitsuki Umihara frown.

So that's the case, no wonder she used her real name in the magazine without a last name.

Of course, Haihara knows about the two children, Zhixian and Harugami Jinyi. In fact, during the period after Qiongno first arrived at Kaihara's house, they often visited them at the nursing home. But then, Eda stumbled and transferred to another elementary school, and soon after, Harugami also left.

These are actually quite normal. But the abnormal thing is that from then on they seem to have disappeared completely. Not only did they not have any contact, but they could not even inquire about any information about them.

In fact, Mitsuki Haihara himself had a pretty good relationship with them back then. It's just that for some inexplicable reason, he always seems to be deliberately avoiding thinking about the past of the dome, and naturally he never has the idea of looking for them.

Can't tell why?

Are you kidding! The reason is obvious.

It's like discovering the unhappiness in my sister's heart when she was working as a model, and it was completely from the same idea.

Although he understands intellectually, in terms of real feelings, Umihara doesn't really want anyone other than himself to come into contact with Dono's life.

To put it bluntly, it's just a desire for exclusivity. This sentiment is actually shared by everyone, but the object is different.

For what I deliberately ignore, even if I try to make up for it now, I am afraid I don't know if it is feasible. But the answer to whether or not to continue this disregard is equally clear.

"Do you have any clue now?"

Umihara asked.

"Not really. A client once told me that he saw a girl who looked like a girl, but every time he rushed over, he found nothing. And no matter what method you use, you can't find a ......."

"How did you find it?"

"It's this."

Dome took out a folder and handed it to Mitsuki Haihara. Kaihara opened the folder, and the first two documents were sketches of Edari and Harukami.

Although it is only a sketch, it is really beautifully drawn. It's like projecting an image from your memory almost completely.

"You drew it?"

"Hmm."

Why does she always seem to take things for granted that others may not be able to do in a lifetime? Just like these two sketches, art majors can't do it to this extent by drawing models, right?

Not to mention this emotion, with these two paintings as a reference, it is quite strange that there is still no trace of Zhixian and Harugami at all. Even if time changes the appearance of the two, it should not be so different that it is completely dissimilar. Moreover, it is also very puzzling that someone once found Harugami Jinyi, but Dome rushed to it and didn't find it.

"I'm here to help, too. I don't have a clue about anything else, but I think I can solve some of the money problems. ”

"Huh?"

"Don't be surprised, right?" Kaihara noticed that his sister seemed to be looking at him with a look that was not quite right. "Don't think about it. It's not just you who work part-time, I also have some income myself, so I should still be able to come in handy. ”

"Part-time job?"

I didn't doubt what Kai Yuan meant, but I just listened to the meaning of his words, it seemed to be a well-paid job, which made Dome a little curious.

"It's kind of something to do with your roommate. Wait a minute. ”

Mitsuki Umihara came back with a box from his room.

Inside the box is a crimson gemstone. Although Qiongno is a layman with jewelry, he can see at a glance the power of attorney marked "Hoshikawa" inside the box.

Is this a commission from a roommate's family?

Flipping through it, the power of attorney contains detailed requirements such as the indicators of the cutting process, as well as the time limit. Pictures of the rough and parametric perspective drawings of the final product requirements are also attached. Judging by the shape of the gemstones in the box, it is clear that this is already a finished product that has been processed.

In the entrusted person column on the power of attorney, the name "Mitsuki" is written. Dome looked at his brother with a strange expression. (Note: Mitsuki and Mitsuki have the same sound, but the latter is a female name)

"It was a mistake at first." Haiyuan was a little embarrassed, "At that time, I typed too fast, and the Chinese characters were typed wrong. But now it's just a pseudonym for a mistake. You see, this kind of thing can be done with the right use of power. ”

Mitsuki Umihara turned his fingers, and the water was moving in a circular high-speed motion under the power of the mind. The water ring touches the pencil, and the tip of the pen is cut like a piece of tofu, and it is quickly cut into a regular polyhedron.

"That's amazing!"

The dome was heartily amazed.

By and large, everyone knows that the best cutting tool is fluid. However, the fluid itself cannot be molded at will, so it is impossible to use the fluid as a cutting tool except for a simple straight line cut.

However, if you use telekinesis to manipulate and exert force on the liquid, this problem does not exist at all. As long as it's fast enough, even if it's as hard as a diamond, it's fine.

It's easy to say, but the requirements for the ability to actually operate it are definitely not simple. However, once this is solved, there is no doubt that it has an amazing advantage that cannot be imitated by any process. Turning alone is absolutely beyond the reach of other methods.

This is thanks to the fluid mechanics section of the theoretical requirements.

Haiyuan himself didn't expect that he would find a job that paid so well that even he, a child from a wealthy family, was surprised. If you convert his income, I'm afraid it's even higher than that of Dome.

It's also natural. In general, people working in the luxury industry are always more wealthy than researchers, although large-scale research projects can easily be invested more than any other industry. It can only be said that human beings are still very superficial in general.

Why do you say this to your sister? I'm sure it's because I learned about what my sister is doing. If it's just one-sided, he'll be a little uncomfortable.

"But, I can't use your money, brother......"

"What do you think?" Mitsuki Haihara waved his hand unhappily, "This is not your business alone. Have you forgotten that they are my friends, too. ”

Dome had never relied too much on her family, so it was unlikely that she would receive financial help from her family. But when Haiyuan Mitsuki said this, she had no way to refuse. As he said, the stumbling and the garment are not just about the dome.

Maybe it's a little bad-hearted.,Mitsuki Kaihara likes to see his sister's cute expression when she can't speak.。 Although she is smart, she can sometimes be dull, and this contrast is really interesting. So sometimes, he does it deliberately. This is somewhat of a suspicion of bullying, but he has no malicious intent.

Although Dome was still a little reluctant, he finally chose to compromise at Kaihara's insistence. After all these things were settled, Mitsuki Kaihara returned to his room and sat in front of the computer and pondered.

In fact, Haiyuan is ready to register a private label for himself. As the son of a family engaged in a large number of business operations, Mitsuki Kaihara is more interested in the concept of the brand. But he hasn't thought much about the brand name yet.

Just now some ideas came to his mind that were more far-reaching and not suitable for his age. After all, when it comes to high-priced jewelry, it's easy to think of certain characters.

In hindsight, around this time, he had already sensed something not so good from the strange situation of Edari and Harukami.

After holding his chin and thinking for a while, Mitsuki Umihara typed in the brand name he had in mind into the computer.

He named his private label "Caelum_&_Lux" (uploader's note: I looked it up, and it should be the title of this volume. Standard pun. ）。

It won't be long before this brand will make a name for itself in a very short time.
