When Truth pushed the door open, she had already noticed that none of their usual shoes were under the entryway. Although it is said that Qiao and Keitaro should have gone out to deliver clothes and have not come back, but at this time, Kusaka should have prepared a meal and was waiting for her. The reason why the truth remembers it so clearly is because every time she walks to the dinner table, as long as Qiao and Keitaro haven't come back, then she must be greeted by Kusaka's enthusiastic smile.

But in the eyes of truth, such a smile made her very creepy. When she saw Kusaka ironing her clothes, she often thought of what Kusaka had said to her before that not to trust Kazuki and Kiba.

I don't want to believe it... However, Kiba really became like that, and he killed Kusaka...

And the reason for this is not known to the truth. She had slowly come out of the shadow of Orphnoch, but the reappearance of Kusaka and Kiba brought her not only the joy of reunion, but also a pessimistic premonition that she would repeat the mistakes of the past.

Kusaka still doesn't trust Kiba Kazuki, and Kiba is still the same gentle as before.

No one has changed, and that's what scares the truth the most. Even said that Caojia's distorted feelings for herself did not subside at all.

Click.

The sound of the door opening behind her startled her.

"What's the matter with you? Can't take off your shoes while standing at the door? ”

"What do you say, aarco! The truth should have only arrived a little earlier than us! ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I just got distracted..."

Truth quickly took off his shoes and rushed to the kitchen as if fleeing, followed by the sound of tinkering with kitchen utensils.

"Truth guy, what's wrong?"

"Her appearance is really strange, she didn't quarrel with Ah Qiao."

"You guy! In addition to saying a pair of strange cool words, let's just talk about your brainless love! ”

"How can you say such ugly words! The most important thing in falling in love is to keep in touch often, and you understand the contact, right? ”

"Contact you! You two, see each other every day this week, you don't get tired of seeing me, I'm going to be tired! ”

"What does it have to do with whether you look at it or not, that's work! It's work! ”

"How long are you two going to quarrel before you're willing to come in and clean up the table you messed up at noon? If you don't want to have dinner, you can figure it out yourself. ”

"Look at what I'm doing, I've been with you so many times, so many jobs, it's your turn to pay me a little 'salary', right?"

He shook off his shoes with his heels, and lay down on the sofa with a backward jump, and took a magazine on the table and covered his face.

"Ah Qiao, you have to at least put your shoes in order..."

Keitaro lowered his body to put his shoes in order, but Truth walked out with three quick hot bento boxes at this time.

"You guys, do you have to make me angry?!"

"Ahh I'm sorry! ”

Keitaro wanted to fly to the dining table and clean it up at once, but he tripped over the entrance and almost fell.

"What a clumsiness, Keitaro~"

"Ah Qiao, aren't you just talking cool words on the side?"

Coincidentally listening to Keitaro's words, he looked at the truth through the gap in the magazine, but found that she was already staring at him, so he moved very interestingly.

After a while.

"By the way, truth, what about the grass? Why don't I see others? ”

"I don't know, he wasn't home when I came back, I don't know where he went, and he didn't answer the phone."

"I guess I'm looking for that Kageyama guy again."

Qiao gulped the curry-dipped rice from the spoon, and ate it with satisfaction almost when the churning white smoke stopped coming out.

Cat tongue!

The word flashed through Truth and Keitaro's mind at the same time.

"Do you want to look for him later? If something happens..."

This sentence left the other two people in silence. Qiao didn't say anything, but simply repeated scooping up a spoonful of rice with a spoon, blowing it with a lot of strength, and finally putting it in his mouth, as if Keitaro hadn't spoken just now. And the truth, she even gulped down the rice in the lunch box.

"Hey! Hey! ”

Keitaro put his hand in front of the two of them and shook it vigorously.

"Are you listening to me? What should we do if there is any danger in Kuga? ”

Cho looked up a little reluctantly, and found that the truth was still ignoring Keitaro. He stood up just as Keitaro was about to start nagging again.

"Huh? Ah Qiao, what are you..."

"If you're looking for Kusaka, you'll definitely have to ask Matsugami, and the people in the company should be happy to do this kind of thing."

Click.

The door opened suddenly, and Kusaka walked in through the door.

"Where did you go to Kusaka! I'm starting to worry about your safety, so let us know where to go! ”

"Ah, next time."

Kusaka replied perfunctorily and walked into his room. But before that, the standing coincidence saw the scar on the side of his face.

----

Two hours ago.

Kusaka finished her laundry work early and began to sit at the front desk and read the newspaper for the past few days.

A customer pushes open the door of the store, and the sound of the prompter on the door makes Kusaka look up. The person who came was a middle-aged uncle.

"Hello, what do you need?"

When Kusaka faced the guests, his words always seemed to have a strange flattery.

"Well, I'm the foreman of a construction site near here, and I want to iron our employees' clothes to your store. Because my wife always mentions you to me, saying that you are more serious and responsible for the needs of customers. ”

"Thanks for the compliment, but do you need to iron an entire jobsite's clothes? Is this a bit ..."

"You misunderstood!"

The man wiped the sweat from the sides of his forehead with a handkerchief.

"The clothes we need to iron in your store are just the suits that the staff will need to wear when they take pictures when they are finally finished. So there is also plenty of time, probably at least one to two months. ”

"That's it! Then we'll be happy to help you! ”

"Then please come with me to pick up those clothes, do you have your own car, maybe it will be more convenient to use the car to get them."

Caojia drove his own motorcycle to carry the contractor, and as I said before, the construction site was indeed very close.

"Eh, the worker delivering bricks..."

"Who?"

The foreman looked over to Caojia's eyes and saw a thin man with gold-rimmed glasses, who was slowly moving forward with all his strength as he pushed the dusty cart in his hand.

The cart he could have pushed suddenly stopped moving, and when he looked up, he was so frightened by the person who stopped him in front of him that he sat on the ground.

"You... You... How could it be..."

"Takuma Yirou!!"

The foreman screamed and walked over to Takuma, and was about to grab him by the ear to lift him up, but was stopped by Kusaka.

"This is my old acquaintance, and he still owes me some money and hasn't paid it off! Can I catch up with him alone? The price of laundry can give you a 95% discount. ”

Just as the foreman was considering whether to accept it, Kusaka had already walked over and pulled him up by the collar of his shirt. The foreman wanted to say something, but saw the cold eyes in Caojia looking back at him.

----

"You... That's impossible...! ”

"How long are you going to mumble?"

Kusaka threw him to the ground with Takuma's collar, and he rode on Takuma's body and raised his fist.

"Let's try again."

One punch.

"Be the noble 'LuckyClover'!"

One punch.

"Show me how ugly you are as Orphnoch!"

One punch.

The glasses flew to the ground beside him.

"It's really trying to disguise it. Coward! ”

Kusaka stood up.

Ponder's head tilted to the side weakly, his face had been bruised by the grass and his eyes were swollen, but he still had no idea of becoming Orphnoch, and since that day he had seen the real Orphnoch, he had decided to give up his Orphnoch life.

Kageyama-san, I'm sorry, but I want to live as a human no matter what.

When Kusaka appeared in front of him again, it was already Kaixa's appearance.
