After eating the ramen, Kamihara paid for the ramen quite generously.

"That's generous."

"Of course, don't look down on 2560 yen!"

After leaving the ramen restaurant together, the two began to walk along the national highway in front of the school to the subway station. After walking for a while, they crossed a fork in the road, and the two stood together in front of the subway station.

"You shouldn't be turning at that intersection?"

"I want to send you." Kamihara said as a matter of course.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue looked away, not believing his statement, "I'm not a child who doesn't know how to walk. ”

"What do you think, you are such a beautiful girl, you are still a rich lady, how dangerous it is to walk on the street at night, if you meet a drunk office worker, you will be dangerous."

"If it were in a small country town, I would still believe you...... Forget it, goodbye, see you tomorrow. ”

"Oh, see you tomorrow."

"When I go back, remember to review my music theory knowledge, and I'll check it tomorrow."

"Teacher Qi Mingyue is so strict?"

"That's as it should be, Kamihara-san."

Tianhai Qi Mingyue retracted his gaze, turned around, and began to walk towards the subway passage.

"Actually, Qi Mingyue still wants a gift, right?"

In less than a moment, such a sentence came from behind him.

The small black leather shoes that Tianhai Qi Mingyue stepped on the marble staircase suddenly stopped.

......

Kamihara looked at her long silken hair at the back of her head and at her tall back with a small school bag.

Seeing that she had stopped, she continued:

"Before... It's not very pleasant, but since it's almost your birthday, as a brother, I still want to give you a gift. ”

"You... What do you want to send? Tianhai Qimingyue replied after a long interval, and she seemed to be recalling something.

"It's not decided yet." Kamihara said with a smile to her again.

"So, this is a blank check from my brother?" Tianhai Qimingyue stroked the hair next to his ear, and turned sideways to look at Kamihara Le above.

"Wouldn't a gift that isn't picky have a sense of anticipation?"

"Gifts that don't meet the sense of anticipation are just garbage."

"Don't talk so ruthlessly, it's a piece of heart......

Before Shenyuan Le finished speaking, Tianhai Qimingyue turned around and left.

The girl's beautiful back is gradually moving away in the passage of the subway station, and from a distance, her long hair, the small schoolbag behind her back, the pleated skirt and the slender legs under the skirt are full of girlishness.

She quickly disappeared into the crowd of people on the platform.

"That's it, promised to receive a gift?" Retracting his gaze, Kamihara Le whispered with a shoulder bag.

......

In the corridor of the high-end apartment building in Liangtang, Tianhai Qimingyue turned the door lock of the house with a key.

In the kitchen, wearing an apron and holding a soup spoon to adjust the cooking, Tianhai Jiu Ruri saw her sister walk in from the entrance.

"You're back, do you want to eat?"

Tianhai Qi Mingyue looked into the kitchen, "No, sister, I've eaten outside." ”

"Have you eaten?" Tianhai Jiuliuli obviously didn't expect Qi Mingyue to actually eat out.

"Hmm."

When Tianhai Jiuliuli was curious to ask for details, only to send her sister to her room at this time.

"Strange, what's wrong with Qi Mingyue, no... A few more words? ”

......

Tianhai Qi Mingyue closed the door of the room, and the movement when the lock cylinder was embedded in the lock hole was so quiet that there was almost no movement.

She leaned her back against the door and stared at her legs under her skirt for a long, long time.

......

She was reminiscing about the events of this evening.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue struggled for a long time in the memory just now before raising his head.

It wasn't until he remembered his last sentence [will give you a gift] that he barely broke free from his memory.

The room is neat, the curtains move slightly by the window, and the night light is mixed with the neon lights of Tokyo's Minato-ku, as if it diffuses into the room...

The girl looked up and looked through the lenses, and in the distance outside the window was Tokyo Tower, which stood in the middle of the city. The spire of the tower flashed with orange light, and suddenly, the child's hole was magnified in the unconscious gaze, and the light spots of the spire and the outline of the city also seemed to flicker endlessly.

Looking, watching, she realized after a long time that the schoolbag behind her had not been put down.

She didn't know what she was struggling with, what she cared about...

She's always like this, inadvertently stunned.

Putting down her bag, she sat down on her desk and lit the lamp. In the most conspicuous position next to the table lamp, there is a shark doll.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue lay on the desk in amazement, tilted her head sideways, and pinched the doll's smiling face with her hand.

She looked at it, and suddenly saw herself reflected in the eyes of the shark doll.

[At least, don't hate yourself]

[I like smart people very much]

The girl closed her eyes. These two sentences seem to echo in distant memories, like dream-like summer nights, dream-like cicadas in the forest, and the smile that is so far away that they look at themselves dimly under the street lamp.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue looked at the shark doll's confident smiling face again, and her slender fingers pinched the top of the doll's cheek.

"Liar."

......

Kamihara returned home at 9 p.m.

I didn't bother to get dinner, put the hot water in the bathroom, and then started to do the work of tidying up the living room, sorting garbage, dust disposal, and putting the blanket used by Ah Ling on the sofa into the laundry basket to be washed.

"Come on."

He always believed that it was more difficult for one person to live alone than for two people.

Because no one cares, how comfortable everything is, most of the time lying in bed, picking up a bag and throwing it next to the bed to fill all kinds of garbage, and washing it when you want to wash it in the bath.

If you want to ask him how he knows, his previous life and his current Ah Ling are so sloppy.

Snack crumbs, torn corners of packaging tapes, data cables for various electronic devices on the bed......

Alas.

I don't know why I suddenly thought of Ah Ling again.

Kamihara glanced at the moon in the distance in the courtyard, and when he returned to his senses and lowered his head to water the flowers, he realized that the epiphany he had brought back before had actually bloomed.

The obovate white petals overlap and bloom, and the needle-shaped leaf wheel blooms.

"It's pretty."

Kamihara tried to take a good-looking photo with his mobile phone, but unfortunately he didn't know how to use a filter, and the photos he took lacked a little bit of a noble taste in reality.

"It's good to look good, but it's a pity that only one person can appreciate it today."

Shaking his head, Kamihara Le, alone for a while, walked back to the bathroom to take a shower.

Untied his tie, took off his clothes, and stepped into the bathtub, hot water spreading all over his body.

His skin was stimulated and his eyes closed comfortably, and while Kamihara enjoyed the bath, he picked up his phone in the foggy bathroom to check if anyone had contacted him.

Okay, no.

He put down his phone and continued to take a bath.

......

After taking a bath, Kamihara walked out shirtless and casually hung a bath towel.

Unfortunately.

No, it should be said that it is surprising.

Ah Ling actually sneaked in through the side door of the living room connected to the courtyard, and the light step on the floor was probably to surprise herself.

"What are you doing?"

Suzu Kamihara glanced up and down at his bare upper body, his eyes seemed to be shining, he stood up straight, and his right hand was held on his chin with a pistol posture, and his expression was quite playful:

"I didn't expect my brother to just take a shower... It's really a bit of a bit of a bit of a ab. ”

Kamihara Le Keren can't bear to be evaluated by his sister like this:

"Female rascal."

Suzu Kamihara lowered her hand and protested, "Alas! No, you're the one who is the scoundrel. ”

But my brother's figure can really be... Obviously not a sturdy boy, but he has a great sense of strength. I just washed my hair, and my hair is a little messy, and it's a little messy and handsome.

When Kamihara Le found that she was still looking at herself, she instantly changed into dead fish eyes, and pulled the bath towel around her waist to make sure it wouldn't fall: "You have to know that this is a place I rented, it is my home, and you are an uninvited guest...... I remember my door was locked, and you climbed in from the other side of the wall? ”

"Very capable!"

Shen Yuanle was speechless: "This is not praising you. ”

"My brother is still in good shape......"

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Kamihara took two steps back.

"I just want to see if it's the real thing."

"Hey, I'm my brother."

"What's going on?"

Suzu Kamihara clasped her hands on her chest, turned her face sideways, and she was wearing a beret on her head when she had just finished working, and she muttered, "I don't mind, what are you worried about." Besides, it's not like I haven't seen you, I've seen you wear only one pair of pants when you were a kid! ”

A bunch of black lines came out of Kamihara's head.

"Why didn't you say you had to ask me to help you urinate before?"

Suzu Kamihara's face suddenly turned red, and she tilted her face a little more. Shoulder-length short hair followed her expression, "That's, that's a small thing, don't count!" And why do you only remember it. ”

Come on, you tsundere.

"Okay, okay, don't talk about these useless things, you get out of the way, I'll go change my clothes."

"Oh... How would it feel if you asked me to touch my abs? ”

"Impossible."

Five minutes later, Kamihara walked out of the casual suit and shorts he was wearing, and scratched his messy hair, even if it was a temporary care.

In just five minutes, Ah Ling had already occupied the sofa in his living room.

Kamihara Le carried his schoolbag, took out today's homework and put it on the coffee table, and reached out to drive away his sister's feet under his ass, "Go away, go away, make room for me." ”

Suzu Kamihara withdrew her gaze from the TV, heard his disgusted tone, and deliberately lifted his foot and put it on his lap again.

"Don't take it away, I don't have a place to put it."

"You don't have a place to put it?"

"I said yes."

What an arrogant girl.

Although Ah Ling is not as tall as Jiuliuli and Qimingyue.

But as a beautiful girl, her body proportions are still perfect, if she follows Qi Mingyue today, the legs she sees are described as "beautiful", then Ah Ling's legs can be described as "cute".

There is no delicate and weak feeling that can't help the wind, and the length and tightness of the legs under the pleated skirt are just right.

She put her feet on her laps for two reasons.

One is that there is nowhere to put it.

The second is to use this to declare his sovereignty and declare that he has suppressed his brother.

"Whatever you want."

Kamihara Le ignored her, and let it go as soon as he liked, so he still had to hurry up and finish today's homework, so as not to be called to the office by Miyasaka-sensei early tomorrow.

......

Ah Ling is obviously not the kind of girl who will settle down at home.

While watching TV, she found that her brother ignored herself, so she secretly hooked the itch on his waist with her foot while he was doing his homework.

"Equinox."

"Oh~"

Of course, Suzu Kamihara only verbally agreed, and after that, he still poked his waist with his feet wearing knee-length black socks.

Once, twice.

Until the fourth time Kamihara Le wrote crooked words because of her interference, he was angry, and directly grabbed her ankle that wanted to escape with his backhand, pinched the foot girl and scratched the heart of her foot.

At first, Ah Ling was still struggling, still puffing out her face and trying to hold back her laughter.

But as someone stepped up her efforts, she couldn't hold back anymore and rolled on the couch begging for mercy.

"Don't, hahaha, don't scratch, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm really wrong."

After begging for mercy several times, Kamihara let her go.

Suzu Kamihara blushed and gasped for breath, and it took a while for him to come back to his senses from a blank stretch of thought.

"Necrotic..."

“... What do you say, don't look at who provoked me first. ”

Suzu Kamihara sat up from the sofa with her legs crossed, and looked at Kamihara Le opposite with a puffed face, obviously not convinced.

"Staring—"

While writing her homework, Kamihara asked her, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be here today?" ”

"I... It's just that I want to come over suddenly, can't I? ”

"There has to be a reason, a sudden change of what is good." Kamihara continued to do his homework without looking at her.

Suzu Kamihara was a little flustered, she grabbed a pillow from a sofa and buried half of her face in it, leaving only a pair of eyes outside:

"Haven't I been confessed in the last few days?"

"Well, and then what?"

What is the tone of Stinky Lele?

Don't care about yourself at all.

Suzu Kamihara raised her eyebrows, as if she was a little angry: "Why don't you seem to care, and don't ask me if I refuse." ”

"Did you refuse—"

As soon as Kamihara said this, a pillow flew towards him.

"It's too perfunctory."

Fortunately, Kamihara Raku's pillow technique is first-class, so he grabbed the pillow in his hand without looking at it and put it beside him.

"Stinky Lele..."Suzu Kamihara said with her mouth half buried in her mouth, her voice muffled.

Kamihara stopped the pen in his hand and looked at his sister, who seemed to have a little temper.

He explained, "It's mainly your business, and I don't want to ask." It is up to you whether you accept or not the confessions of other boys. ”

"I didn't ask, I didn't ask...... Why are you making so many excuses, it must be that you have been with Qi Mingyue recently-"

Jealous again?

Kamihara: "Come here." ”

"What are you doing..."Suzu Kamihara seemed to be reluctant, and they all muttered.

"Come here and you'll find out."

Kamihara Le's second urging, Kamihara Suzu reluctantly moved his legs.

Kamihara Raku put his hand on her head, and Suzu Kamihara was pressed by his hand and buried her face.

"Okay, okay, touch your head, don't disturb your brother's homework, okay?"

"I won't forgive you like that......"

As soon as Suzu Kamihara finished saying this, her face began to flush with shyness. The head was pressed against his downward hand, and even though he was just putting it down, he seemed to feel the reassuring feeling.

Suzu was bouncing and naughty most of the time, and Kamihara knew that she would only look so peaceful in this state.

When she was a child, she did something wrong, and she used to touch her head to forgive her.

When she is forgiven, she will give herself a hug in the end.

Gradually, she seemed to like the feeling.

"I've been very busy lately, Ah Ling, I didn't ask much about you, I'm sorry."

"Is this an apology?"

"Well, it's an apology."

"Even so... I don't mean to forgive you either. ”

Tsundere Bell is here again, isn't it?

"So, can Ah Ling tell me about the boy who confessed to you? What kind of person he is. ”

"I don't know......," Suzu Kamihara said slightly, as if she was recalling the scene at the time, "He was very excited in his heart, but he was afraid to speak, and handed out a confession letter with both hands... After a long time, he finally said a lot of things to me, and he said it very sincerely. He also said that he has always been a fan of mine, and he has been supporting me for a long time...... He was very happy to know that he was in the same school as me. ”

A classic confession picture.

The courage that a little boy mustered up for the first time.

"And then?" Kamihara asked.

"I refused, even though he looked so sad that I couldn't bear to look at it... But there's no way around it, although he's a fan of mine, I don't like him...... Originally, it was nothing, but after that, I would wonder if there were many fans who liked me as much as he did, and if there would be a day when my confession was rejected. ”

Kamihara listened patiently to Suzu's nagging.

As more and more fans increase, she seems to have shaken her position as an idol.

"Does being an idol make a lot of people sad?"

Faced with his sister's question, Kamihara Le thought for a while before asking, "What does Ah Ling think is an idol?" ”

"Express yourself and get loved by everyone?"

"It's a spiritual pillar, stupid."

"What do you mean?" Suzu Kamihara asked.

"Hesitating in the face of difficulties, feeling frustrated when being hit, and having difficulty making decisions in the face of major events in life...... A sentence that someone had said suddenly sounded in my ears, and I suddenly remembered a certain lyric that someone had sung, and that person's voice and smile appeared in front of me...... And get motivated by it.

"When faced with a difficult situation, getting the strength that comes out of someone brings a surge in your heart is [idol].

"It's just like the short video you made before, everyone thinks you're cute - they think you're cute, they get satisfaction from you, from your voice, that's what it does."

Suzu Kamihara asked, "What about feelings?" I like an idol very much, but I can't get a response from the other party, and I'm going to be very uncomfortable. ”

"It's uncomfortable, but so what? He likes you, do you have to like him? If he is sincere, he should try to make you like him, instead of kidnapping your feelings and sympathy as a fan. ”

Kamihara was full of calm and confidence when he said this, and there were already a lot of stars in Kamihara Suzu's eyes when he looked at him.

She hurriedly asked:

"Then what do idols do to their fans?"

Kamihara thought about it carefully, "This involves a lot, but Ah Ling, you must know that you are yourself first, and then idols." When it comes to relationships, think about yourself first, and then think about who you are. ”

When Suzu Kamihara heard the end, he was completely convinced, and he would only nod ruthlessly:

"Brother, why do you know so much?"

"Of course, I'm your brother! Anything can be wrapped around me. ”

Suzu Kamihara looked at him deliberately funny, hugged the pillow, and smiled shallowly.

Then, with her hands upright on the pillow in front of her legs, the duck sat beside her and lifted her cheeks:

"Then what if I suddenly tell my brother that I'm hungry now..."

"If you're hungry, it's just—" Kamihara looked at her, swallowing the words back into his stomach before he could finish them.

She looked at her child's hole, glowing with a faint light, surging eagerness, deep dependence—and a little coquettishness.

Kamihara didn't want to get used to her, but she looked at herself with such a look.

......

Thinking about it again, she was busy until she got off work at 8 o'clock, and she deliberately came to her side to spend the night with her, afraid that she would be uncomfortable alone.

Kamihara relented.

He clenched his right hand into a fist and coughed twice: "Okay, I'll do it for you when I'm done with this little homework." Have you ever had dinner? ”

"I haven't eaten ...... yet"

"Then I'll get you dinner, do you want dessert?"

"Yes! Deep-fried ice cream. ”

"Okay, I'll get it for you."

When Suzu Kamihara heard his voice, her heart warmed up again, and she hugged the pillow tighter and asked, "Brother, why are you so good to me, you say you will cook for me, and you can get me dessert too, it's so late... It's tiring. ”

"Didn't I explain this question before?"

"I... I know, but, I still want to hear it. ”

“...... Or don't say it, what has been said, repeat it again, I will be embarrassed too. ”

"Oh well..."

Kamihara Le said again: "I'll help you put the hot water away by the way, you go in and take a bath, and after taking a bath, you can almost eat." ”

"I didn't bring a change of clothes."

"I have a clean school uniform, you don't like to wear my shirt, you can wear it first."

"Oh..."Suzu Kamihara suddenly winked at him, "Brother, have you ever seen that kind of weird manga?" ”

"What?"

"H's kind."

“...... Why do you ask this? ”

"It's just curiosity."

Speaking of this, Kamihara Le became serious, and said with a straight look:

"I haven't seen it."

Suzu Kamihara quickly showed a look of disbelieving.

"Ahem, believe it or not, have you seen it?"

"I didn't."

Faced with his sister's answer, which didn't seem like a lie, Kamihara narrowed his eyes instead.

Should you believe her in this kind of thing?

"It's really not!"

"Alas, whatever you say is what, I'll help you put hot water."

......

Kamihara was cooking in the kitchen, and Suzu Kamihara walked out of the bathroom barefoot in a white shirt after taking a shower, "Brother, where are the slippers?" ”

"In the hallway." Kamihara glanced up at her as she cut the chicken.

The long white shirt hung over her upper body, covering the curves of her upper body while also blocking a quarter of her thighs. The hem of the shirt, which is more dangerous than the miniskirt, shows off the fair and smooth legs.

The key is that she is still barefoot on the floor, with a small girlish feeling.

As soon as she came out of the bathroom, her hair was wet, and her shirt hung half-fit on her shoulders, and her whole person seemed to have a layer of moisture, and she seemed to be able to see a little pink in her little belly through the white of her shirt.

Kamihara didn't know if her shirt was a little bigger, she had collarbones and large pieces of them exposed, and her hands were so short that she could only rely on her fingers to bend the cuffs of her white shirt.

Five Generations of Rivers, Mountains and Moons

Seeing that the old brother was looking at herself, Suzu Kamihara opened her feet directly, supported her waist with her left hand, and compared a horizontal V with her right hand in front of her eyes.

The eyes were still blinking in the horizontal V, full of eccentricity.

A proper idol pose.

Wait a minute!

This pose...

Kamihara glanced at her thighs, and fortunately, she was wearing safety pants.

"It's okay for girls to be reserved."

"What's the matter, it's at home anyway."

Kamihara Le shook his head and continued to chop vegetables, but unexpectedly, Ah Ling walked over with bare feet on the floor.

As soon as she approached, the scent of the shower gel, her own scent, seemed to permeate the white collarbone outline.

"I don't know what I'm going to eat today."

"Diced curry chicken, your favorite."

"Hee-hee, brother is so nice!" Suzu Kamihara hugged his arm directly.

"I said... You put on your clothes and then hug my arm, don't be hippie and smiley. ”

"What, I'm fully dressed."

"Camisole...?"

“......”

Suzu Kamihara's face suddenly changed, and he directly let go of his hand, and turned around with his head bowed in silence, as if he was going to the entrance to put on slippers.

It's over, it doesn't seem to be able to say that Ah Ling is flat-chested......

She cared about that the most.

.....。
