Tokyo girls have a big problem

Chapter 232 Lock him up and handcuff him!

After parting ways with Aoi, Aoyama Ryo stared at the shopping bag in his hand in the elevator.

Do children who accidentally step into a puddle feel the same way on their way home?

Feeling guilty and scared, is there any way to hide and not be discovered?

But if you ask a child, "Knowing you'll be stepping into water today, would you still want to go out?" the child will nod hesitantly.

When they arrived at the guest room, the Ono sisters had not yet returned.

Aoyama Rika immediately hid the new clothes in the bedroom. After taking a shower, she found the clothes again and casually placed them on the coffee table.

While taking a shower, after careful consideration, he felt that it was more appropriate to be honest.

He believed that if he was certain that the truth would remain unknown, most people's morality would collapse, and he hoped that there would be fewer things he couldn't let the Ono sisters know.

Of course, I wouldn't talk about the fitting room incident; that wouldn't be honesty, it would be suicide.

After washing the grapes, I ate them in the living room while watching a replay of the Jade Dragon Flag game, focusing on studying tomorrow's opponent.

"You're back!" Before the door was even fully open, Mizuki Ono's voice rang out, "Toilet! Toilet! Toilet!"

“I’ll go to one too,” Mika Ono said.

Their bangs were stuck to their foreheads, indicating they had sweated a lot.

When they came out of their respective bedrooms, their bangs were even wetter, so they must have washed their faces.

"How was your time?" Aoyama asked.

"There are too many mosquitoes!" Ono Mizuki said, taking a grape to eat.

"It's quite spectacular," said Mika Ono, taking a small sip of water.

"What's this?" Ono Mizuki asked, noticing the shopping bag.

Aoyama took a deep breath without making a sound.

—Prepare for battle!
“Oh, that, the clothes that I bought for me,” he said.

The two sisters looked at him at the same time and remained silent for a moment.

"Clothes?" Mika Ono confirmed.

"Ah."

"Why did you buy clothes for your senior when you met her?" Ono Mizuki asked.

"She didn't bring any bodyguards, so I didn't go out and she had to stay in the hotel. Although it had nothing to do with me, I still felt a little guilty. So after training, I asked her out for dinner. After dinner, we went to Daimaru Department Store. She felt bad and bought me some things."

After saying that, Aoyama Rika added with a hint of helplessness, "I can't refuse, they insist on buying it, it's annoying."

"Why didn't you tell us you were going out?" Ono Mizuki asked again.

“At first, I just wanted to eat,” Aoyama replied.

"What about yesterday?" Ono Mika held her water glass, neither drinking nor putting it down.

"I didn't feel guilty yesterday, but I'm starting to feel guilty today."

Lies are a lubricant; Aoyama Risa finally understands this saying today.

And please allow the world to allow a person to lie when they are desperate, powerless, and helpless.

Most importantly, Aoyama Ryo went out with Mikami Ai because of guilt, not for a date.

Ono Mika nodded and sat down next to Aoyama Osamu.

"Are you happy?" she asked.

"What's so fun about eating and shopping?" Aoyama offered her some grapes.

"I'm asking if she was happy to see her classmate?" Ono Mika hadn't eaten.

"Hmm—" Aoyama Rika pondered, seemingly replaying the video in his mind, observing Aoi's expression at the time, "So-so?"

"Hmph." Ono Mizuki also sat down, on the other side of Aoyama Risa.

A feeling of being caught in the middle arises spontaneously.

Aoyama Risa was having difficulty breathing, as if his oxygen was being diverted away.

“There’s nothing between her and me,” he said. “I swear.”

"A man and a woman who are nothing special, going out to eat and shop alone?" Ono Mizuki stared at him.

“What I mean is, there’s nothing in terms of men and women, but there’s something else, guilt, sympathy,” Aoyama Rido said.

“Novelists really know how to talk,” Ono Mizuki said admiringly.

Aoyamari smiled bitterly.

—Koito, I'm talking to you!
"Are the clothes expensive?" Mika Ono asked.

“86450 yen,” Aoyama replied, his answer precise and complete.

Ono Mika did not speak, Ono Mizuki took a breath.

Actually, when Aoi planned to buy a 700,000 yen trench coat for Aoyama Ryo, Aoyama Ryo firmly refused because the coat reminded him of a 'grand funeral'.

“We must reciprocate with a gift,” Mika Ono pondered.

"Huh?" Ono Mizuki asked in confusion, "Sis, are you just going to let Aoyama Risa off the hook like that? Oh, I see, you're not punishing him because you no longer consider him family."

Despite her sweet appearance, Ono Mizuki, who grew up without parents, is actually quite practical at heart.

"Sister Mika!" Aoyama Rika quickly called out.

Mika Ono said, "I believe in Aoyama."

"Mika-nee!!" Aoyama Ryo, whose name was being addressed directly, was so nervous that his heart almost froze.

“Oh, I believe in reason,” Mika Ono couldn’t help but laugh.

"You were scared to death, weren't you? Haha!" Ono Mizuki laughed heartily at Aoyama Osamu.

Aoyama Rika breathed a sigh of relief.

He told himself that this might just be a little joke by Mika Ono, but he would take it as a small warning.

From now on, I must report to anyone I go out with other pretty girls.

After forgiving Aoyama Rina, the two sisters began to discuss how to reciprocate.

"Should I send clothes?" Ono Mika pondered.

“She’s accumulated thirty or forty pieces of clothing over the summer—no, it should be said that she’s had them since the beginning of summer,” Aoyama Rido said.

"You even know a few of her clothes?" Ono Mizuki nodded as if confirming something, her expression cute but meaningful.

The cute girl's mockery is like being slapped in the face with a lollipop or having your nostrils stuffed with cotton candy—it has a cruel sweetness to it.

"Aren't you curious how many clothes a young lady like Aoi would have?" Aoyama asked.

"I'm not curious." Ono Mizuki looked at him with a fake but still sweet smile.

Her eyes were crescent moons, but besides the moon, her sickle was also curved.

Aoyama Ryo looked at Ono Mika.

"If not clothes, then what should we send?" Ono Mika seemed not to hear her and continued to ponder.

Ono Mitsuki secretly smiled proudly.

Although my sister believes in Aoyama Osamu, believing doesn't mean forgiving. Just like sukiyaki is sukiyaki and hot pot is hot pot.

“Giving gifts to rich people is troublesome; they basically have everything they need,” said Aoyama Risa.

“We need a bodyguard,” Mizuki Ono said.

Despair is when the person who upsets you is your sister.

“That’s true.” Ono Mika agreed. “Rin, starting tomorrow, you should spend more time with your classmates.”

“It’s okay to go see a movie,” Mizuki Ono said.

"Going to the movies together, is there some special meaning to that?" Aoyama asked.

"Does the female lead bring bodyguards when she goes out to eat or shop, but do she go to the movies with her bodyguards?" Mizuki Ono asked him.

"It's definitely not." But in Aoyama Rika's heart, the female lead who goes to the movies with bodyguards must exist.

“Okay, let’s end this topic here,” said Aoyama Risa. “Let’s discuss the matter of ‘starting tomorrow, I will spend more time with Kazumi.’”

“I thought you agreed,” Mika Ono said with a smile.

"I'm just curious about the importance of 'watching a movie together.' First of all, let me state my conclusion: I'm not free. Having dinner with her and taking a walk around the neighborhood to digest is all I can do, and that's only for today."

After spending two consecutive days with her, Aoyama Ryo's guilt towards Mikami Ai had almost completely subsided. Besides, Mikami Ai herself probably didn't want to go out either.

If you want to, why haven't you sent your bodyguards to Fukuoka yet?

"This won't work, that won't work, what should I do?" Ono Mizuki asked, resting her chin on her hand.

She seemed to be putting Aoyama Risa in a difficult position—and in fact, she was also considering it herself.

"Should we just ask her?" Aoyama suggested.

“They have a good relationship,” Mizuki Ono said.

"A single grain of white sugar is less than one ten-thousandth of what we two have."

Ono Mizuki couldn't help but smile—a happy smile—before adopting a more serious expression, as if to maintain her balance.

The way she stared at Aoyama Ryo was as if she was about to secretly smear wasabi on his matcha ice cream.

"How about this," only Mika Ono seemed to be seriously considering, "we'll invite her to dinner tomorrow night. Doesn't this room have a kitchen?"

"Let's eat." Aoyama Rie pondered, "Should we invite my senior, Wakana, and the others?"

“It doesn’t feel right to invite my senior to dinner alone,” Ono Mizuki also said.

The three of them began to consider the rationale behind the matter, much like savoring a dish.

"Let's invite everyone together!" Mika Ono said. "But, I should clarify that the main purpose is to treat my classmate to a meal."

"'Since our classmate helped us, and since our guest room has a kitchen, we plan to cook dinner for her. If you'd like, please come along too,' said Aoyama Risa.

"They covered up the truth without hesitation," commented Mizuki Ono.

“I’m doing this to avoid misunderstandings!” Aoyama explained. “There’s nothing between me and my classmates, but if we tell the truth, they might think there’s something going on, like right now.”

"I don't think there's anything between you and the senior you met," Ono Mizuki said calmly.

“I’ve always believed in you,” Mika Ono said.

"Then why have you been ostracizing me?" Aoyama couldn't understand.

"Because you didn't report it," the Ono sisters said simultaneously.

The degree to which they spoke in unison was enough to convince one that sisters could communicate telepathically.

"It won't happen again next time," Aoyama Ryou apologized, bowing his head.

Ono Mizuki patted his head: "Good boy, I forgive you this time."

“I think,” Ono Mika’s voice was quiet and gentle, but her tone was serious, “that if you don’t have feelings for a girl, you should try not to go out with her alone.”

“That’s right! That’s the problem!” said Mizuki Ono, who had previously said the problem lay in the reporting process.

The other party is Amakusa Sawa and Amakusa Elsa, and Aoyama Risa thinks this statement is correct.

But the girl fell in love at first sight, and he felt it was unnecessary.

"Yes, I understand. I'll be careful," Aoyama Ryou nodded in response, his attitude sincere.

Regardless, let's just get through today first.

“You can’t just pretend to agree to avoid this,” Mika Ono teased him.

Aoyama Risa smiled, feeling her warmth.

"Yes, I will remember." This time he really did remember.

The same thing can have completely different effects depending on whether it's said in a warning or a mocking tone.

“Since these clothes were bought for you, you can cook dinner. Mizuki and I will go buy groceries,” Ono Mika said.

“Make some things she doesn’t usually eat!” Ono Mizuki suggested.

"Can't get Chinese food?" Aoyama Osamu asked tentatively.

"Chinese cuisine is so famous, do you think she can't eat it?" Ono Mizuki looked at him as if he had just said, "Actually, I am a reincarnated person, and I was Chinese in my previous life."

"Then, fried chicken?" Aoyama Risa asked again.

The Ono sisters considered this possibility.

“Perhaps you really haven’t eaten it before.” Mika Ono nodded.

"Why don't you ask?" Ono Mizuki teased Aoyama Osamu with a smile.

“Your personality is a bit eccentric, Mizuki,” Aoyama reminded her, as if there were grains of rice on the corner of her mouth. “Besides, no need to ask, even people who don’t like fried chicken will like the fried chicken I make.”

Ono Mika nodded again.

Mizuki Ono punched Osamu Aoyama.

Let's just let this matter rest. I just hope the real reason I bought the clothes will never be known.

Probably nothing will happen. It's impossible for Aoi to tell anyone, and it's even less likely for Aoyama Risa to tell anyone, since Aoi only wanted to improve her reputation, while he was doing it to save his life.

After making the decision, Aoyama Risa sent a message to Mikami Ai.

The girls huddled up to him, staring at his phone.

What's the difference between this and getting caught driving under the influence (DUI)?
—I hope the real reason for buying these clothes won't be revealed?
Whether the Ono sisters have telepathy or not, Aoyama Osamu doesn’t know, but he really wants to have telepathy with Mikami Ai right now!

[Aoyama Rika: I told Mika and Mizuki about the clothes you bought me, and they've decided to treat you to dinner tomorrow.]

Please, I beg you, I love you!
The message is marked as 'read'.

"Wow, that's fast!" Ono Mizuki exclaimed. "Even my brother's messages don't arrive this quickly!"

“You need to reflect on this,” Aoyama Rido said.

—Should I say I need to go to the toilet?
[See Love: Good]

After waiting for a while, there was no further news.

—When you meet someone you love, you are an angel!

Even if it brings suffering, punishment, and hardship to the world, it is all to pave the way for the world to eventually achieve happiness!
Aoyama even wanted to buy a sticker and stick a star on her forehead!
"It seems there really is nothing wrong."

Aoyama Rika and Ono Mizuki both looked at Ono Mika.

"Did I just say that out loud?" Mika Ono asked the two of them.

Aoyama Rika and Ono Mizuki nodded at the same time.

“I mean it when I say I believe in reason,” Ono Mika smiled.

Aoyama Rika and Ono Mizuki dared not speak.

"Let's take a bath," Mika Ono said, then got up and walked towards her bedroom.

"How scary," Mizuki Ono murmured.

"You're not allowed to talk about Sister Meihua like that."

"I think I've already gone too far, constantly making things difficult for you," Ono Mizuki said, seemingly still in a daze.

"You're not allowed to talk about yourself like that either."

Instead of making things difficult for Aoyama Ryo, Ono Mizuki sympathetically comforted him, saying, "Be careful."

We definitely need to be careful.

But what's with this feeling of happiness inside?

So it turns out Ono Mika cares a lot about this, and has been thinking about it all along. Doesn't that prove she likes him?

—No, no, no, Qingshan, you can't be so self-righteous.

It's not that I like him, it's just that I care and mind him going out with other girls.

The next day, July 26th, Kaiming High School still had two games today, and the excited Aoyama Risa directly defeated his opponent.

Distance from Yulongqi Champion: 6/9
He's killed fifteen people in a row!
After the match, the Ono sisters and six others went grocery shopping, while Aoyama Risa and Mikami Ai went back together.

In the car, Aoyama Riki could not hide his excitement and described everything that happened last night in detail.

"What do you think my chances of succeeding with my second confession?" he asked hopefully at the end.

Seeing Ai looking at him, she truly understood the story of Miyako Yaeko's "Aoyama Risa being locked up by the Ono sisters".

"You messaged me last night, and they were watching from the sidelines?" she asked.

“Yes, I did.” Aoyama nodded.

"I guessed it as soon as I saw your message, which is why I deliberately replied coldly." Ai smiled. "How are you going to thank me?"

How would a guy feel about this kind of unspoken understanding, like a meeting of minds? Would he feel even a little bit of attraction?
