Chapter 56: You're Late

No matter what Rintaro wants, time is always ticking, and no one can make a difference. It wasn't too much time before dawn when it stopped, but it didn't take long for Rintaro to toss and turn, and the sky lit up instead.

If he hadn't gone to bed early, Rintaro would have stared at the still dim ceiling with bloodshot eyeballs by now.

The world outside the apartment gradually brightens, and the light shines through the gaps in the thick curtains, allowing Rintaro to perceive the change of time.

I hadn't slept much, but it looked like it was time to get up.

Rintaro gently lifted Katase Hazuki's hand and wanted to take her hand off himself, but as soon as he lifted it a little, her hand pressed down again.

“…… Are you awake? Rintaro turned his head to look at Hazuki Katase next to him, not noticing when she woke up at all: "It doesn't feel like I have a long rest, you can sleep a little longer."

Katase Hazuki yawned, looking a little unmotivated, but she still sat up slowly, and the thin quilt that had been covering her was also pulleyed down.

"I usually wake up at this time, even if I haven't slept enough, I'd better get up first. Besides, she should be about to wake up, and I don't mind waiting for her to come over, but I think you'd be scared. ”

I'm scared to death right now.

Katase Hazuki stood up, unconcerned about Rintaro's involuntary gaze falling on her, stretched, looked left and right, and walked towards the bathroom.

After piercing the window paper, Katase Hazuki's actions seemed to become more natural.

"Do you want to come along? It can save a little time. ”

"No, no, no." Rintaro hurriedly waved his hand.

Katase Hazuki glanced at Rintaro and walked into the bathroom.

Rintaro wanted to stand up too, but after thinking about it, it seemed that he also had to take a shower, so he sat back down and quietly waited for Katase Hazuki to finish washing.

This process was extremely painful for Rintaro, who was afraid that someone would open the door to the apartment while he was waiting.

The sound of water in the bathroom came through the bathroom door, and although it was a little faint, the room was quiet and Rintaro could still hear it.

After a few seconds of listening, a loud voice suddenly remembered in the room. Rintaro was startled, and it took a while to react, as if his phone was ringing.

His phone is still on the wall.

There was no way, Rintaro broke away from the quilt at great speed, ran to the wall, got his phone, and then drilled back in.

At a glance, what was displayed on the phone was the name of Yorai Katse.

An incomparably strong sense of emptiness came up, and Rintaro stayed on the button to connect to the phone, hesitated for a moment, and then connected.

"Hello? Hey, hey? Awake Rintaro? Yori Katse's energetic voice came from the other end of the phone.

“…… Woke up. Rintaro opened his mouth with great difficulty.

"I just woke up and was getting ready to wash. Anyway, what are you calling me for this morning? Falling asleep playing on your phone? If I hadn't gotten up and glanced at my phone today, I would have thought I was just hallucinating last night. ”

……

Rintaro was speechless.

"So, what's going on? Is it wrong or is there something really wrong? Is it late? ”

“…… I can't tell you on the phone, so I'll wait for you to come over. ”

"That shouldn't be a big deal. I'll prepare breakfast for Xiao Yeyue and Xiao Xingli later, and I'll come over, and it seems that there are no ingredients left at home for breakfast, right? I went and bought it by the way. ”

“…… Buy more. ”

"Okay. Then I'll hang up first, I'll see you later~"

Yorai Katase hung up the phone, and Rintaro had the feeling that he was waiting for Ling Chi to be executed.

You have a sister with me, you can prepare one less person...... This sentence, Rintaro didn't dare to say at all.

But now it doesn't seem that you can wait so leisurely for Katase Hazuki to come out of the shower and then wash it yourself.

Of course, it's impossible to go in and squeeze it.,I can only wash it later.,I hope it won't irritate Katase Yorai.。 I have to pull the curtains to breathe or something, and hide the kitchen knife first, so as to get a chance to explain. As for the result of the explanation...... That's not something Rintaro can control.

Rintaro sighed, and because of his heavy mood, even his movements slowed down a lot.

In less than half a minute, Rintaro's mobile phone rang again, and when he picked it up, it was still a call from Yori Katase, and Rintaro didn't think much about it, and connected it directly.

"Hello?"

“…… Is Hazuki there for you? ”

Rintaro almost jumped.

"Don't speak? I said why didn't I see her when I woke up this morning...... Yes...... Yes????? You guys...... Yes????? ”

Rai Katase hung up the phone.

Rintaro really jumped.

He's never been so action-packed.

He quickly dressed himself and opened the curtains to let the morning light shine into the room. Katase Hazuki's clothes were still piled together, and that Rintaro didn't dare to touch them.

The rest ...... There doesn't seem to be much left to deal with.

Rintaro was sitting on a tatami mat, urging Katase Hazuki to come out quickly.

Contrary to her wishes, Katase Hazuki is also a delicate girl, taking a slow bath in the bathroom, and she has no intention of coming out for the time being.

Slow down, slow down, slow down, slow down......

Time passed minute by minute, but nothing seemed to change around me, as if I was in prison.

No, maybe it's better to go to jail, at least not so quietly, so quiet that it makes people feel a little uneasy.

I don't know how long it took, but Rintaro suddenly heard a slight and rapid footstep, which was quickly amplified, followed by the sound of a key entering the hole. Before Rintaro could react, he suddenly saw the door of the apartment being slammed open.

Katase Yorai appeared in front of the door of the apartment, but she didn't particularly breathe, but her hair was a little messy, and it seemed that she had gone out without tidying up, and her eyes were scanning everything she could see from the door.

Except for Rintaro who was kneeling (sitting) there and looked like "I was wrong, scold lightly", there doesn't seem to be much difference from usual.

Yorai Katase put her hand on the door frame and let out a sigh.

"I thought ......"

She raised her legs and walked inside, and before she could settle down, she suddenly saw a pair that was very familiar, but it shouldn't be...... Shoes that should theoretically not appear here. That's not her sneakers.

Yorai Katase opened her mouth slightly, but she didn't make a sound.

Maybe it was a good time, Katase Hazuki walked out of the bathroom, with only a white bath towel around her body, and there was still no expression on her face, which could even be said to be a little serious.

Rintaro could feel that Katase Hazuki was just as nervous as he was now. Maybe even more nervous than yourself.

"Sister, you're late."

Because of nervousness, Katase Hazuki's name for Katase Yorai has been simplified.

Rintaro, who was sitting on a tatami mat, only felt that he had countless sharp knives around his neck, and if he moved slightly, his head would fall off.
