Nanxiang Youbao couldn't help but ask a question.

"that's all--"

As the girl with short, pinkish-purple hair stood up and said goodbye to Nango Toki, he watched.

Nango Shiho readily pulled Nango Yuho along and followed.

Then, after turning a corner out of sight of Nango, Nango Shiho walked up without hesitation and greeted the pink-purple short-haired girl in front of him.

Excuse me, may I bother you?

"Hmm? Is there anything I can help you with?"

He looked at the two black-haired girls who had suddenly blocked his way.

Akane Shinjo stopped and asked, somewhat puzzled.

Chapter 165. One update today, three updates tomorrow! (4300 words!)

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Akane Shinjo stopped and looked at the two black-haired girls standing in front of her with some curiosity.

For some reason, she felt that the two people in front of her looked somewhat familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before.

But if you really have to recall the details in your mind...

Akane Shinjo couldn't quite put her finger on it.

It was as if the impression of the two people in my mind was shrouded in a white fog.

Akane inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity and warmth towards the two of them, so her attitude softened considerably, and she asked again:

"May I ask what brings you two here?"

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Under Akane Shinjo's gaze, the black-haired girl with short black hair and a slightly chubby face spoke up: "Excuse me, does this student know Nango Toki from Class 2 of the second year of high school?"

"Ok?"

I never expected to hear the unexpected name Nango Toki from the other person.

Akane Shinjo was somewhat surprised and couldn't help but glance at the two people's clothes.

They weren't wearing the Ocha High School uniform, which means they're students from other schools... or perhaps a nearby university?

Akane Shinjo was quite surprised, but still spoke up: "Of course I know Nango's name, and I don't think there's a single student at Ocha High School who doesn't know his name."

When talking about Nango, even with Shinjo Akane's perfect disguise skills, there was still a hint of pride in her voice: "That's the pride of our school, the first place in the last national mock exam."

Yes.

That's my Shi Jun!

Number one in the country! A true learning genius!

"Is that right?"

The Nanxiang family is very sensitive to the emotional fluctuations of others.

Nanxiang Zhibao and Nanxiang Youbao are no exception.

After hearing Akane Shinjo's words, which carried a hint of pride, when she mentioned Nango.

The two of them couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Oh no, this girl in front of me seems to really like my younger brother.

In addition to that girl with long pink hair from before...

The relationships... suddenly became a mess.

However, revealing her identity as the elder sister from Nanxiang at this time would be unwise.

After thinking for a moment, Nango Shiho decided to take a step back to advance, at least to find out how much affection the girl in front of him had for his younger brother.

Then Shiho Nango spoke up: "My sister and I also heard about Nango, who ranked first in the national mock exam, so we were a little curious. But thinking about it carefully, even if he ranked first in the last national mock exam, it's not something to brag about."

She paused, then, feigning nonchalance, added:

"Just thinking about it makes it clear that luck played a big part. After all, competing with so many students, maybe this Nanxiang student just had good grades and was lucky enough to get first place?"

Varied...?

Akane Shinjo's perfect smile froze for a moment.

But only for a moment; she immediately resumed her original smiling expression, but her eyes narrowed as she spoke:

"I can't stand to hear that. Luck may have played a 'small part' of the role, but you have to understand that Nango is an outstanding student who is qualified to represent Ocha High School. He consistently ranks first in almost every quiz."

Akane Shinjo deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word 'a small part'.

This is really...

It was almost impossible not to hear the girl's bias.

Nango Shiho grinned, wondering what kind of spell his younger brother had cast on such a beautiful girl.

The other party is actually protecting him like this.

but--

"I think it's just that the outside world has hyped him up too much. This student from Nanxiang isn't actually that outstanding. For example... I heard he comes from the countryside?"

Nango Shiho continued speaking.

"His humble origins yet ability to secure a place at Tokyo Ocha High School speak volumes about his excellence, don't they?"

Akane Shinjo responded sharply to the challenge.

Although I don't know why we're arguing in a place like this, it would be terrible if someone were to badmouth Nango in front of her...

She was genuinely unhappy about that.

She doesn't care what the person she likes says, but if someone interrupts and says something, she will definitely fight back.

"It is meaningless to glorify suffering. A person with average family conditions has average vision and knowledge."

"That's not necessarily true. As far as I know, Nango's knowledge is in no way narrower than that of the local students from Tokyo."

"Aside from his breadth of knowledge, he probably doesn't have any other skills."

The short-haired girl in front of him seemed unmoved.

The key point is that what the other party said was very insightful, giving the impression that they understood Nango Toki very well, which made Shinjo Akane a little overwhelmed.

"Written! Nanxiang has written an excellent article! It is simple and sincere, and this time it has even been published in our school's magazine, 'Yucha'!"

Akane Shinjo couldn't help but speak up.

"It's just simple reading and writing; I can't make money from it in the future."

Her words were met with an unwavering shake of her head: "Besides, isn't it too unfair for her to always be ranked second in the grade, which is below him?"

"I won't feel wronged!"

Akane Shinjo finally couldn't hold back and spoke up.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I'm Shinjo Akane, who's second in the grade! I understand Toki-kun better than you do!"

Akane Shinjo finally couldn't hold back anymore and simply stopped pretending.

Her face turned bright red, clearly furious with the short-haired girl in front of her.

what happened!

What's wrong with this woman?

The moment he appeared, he started speaking ill of Nango Toki right in front of her!

Faced with such people, she simply couldn't maintain her perfect facade, and angrily raised her pretty face to glare at the two people in front of her.

"Huh—? Really?"

Nango Shiho never expected such an unexpected gain.

She had only glanced at Nanxiang Shi's grades while passing by, which is why she said he was ranked second in the grade.

The result was unexpected...

Is the girl in front of me the second-best student in her grade at Yucha High School?

This is really...

She is very beautiful, and her academic performance is only slightly worse than her younger brother's, which is evident from the conversation just now.

The girl in front of me showed an unusual bias towards her younger brother.

I really don't know where this brat got his good luck from! He actually has such a great girl speaking up for him!

Even as a girl, Nango Shiho was so envious that she felt like she was grinding her back teeth to dust.

But this is not the time to express feelings of jealousy.

"Even if they're in the same grade, that doesn't prove that Shinjo knows him that well. That's not convincing enough. Or is Shinjo Shinjo that Nango's girlfriend?"

She said what she had always wanted to say, and stared at Akane Shinjo without hesitation.

If it were a typical female protagonist from a slice-of-life anime, she would probably just stammer, panic, and open her mouth but not know what to say when faced with this topic.

but--

"Yes, that's me!"

Akane Shinjo, who is one of the heroines of the tokusatsu anime "SSS.GRIDMAN", nodded in agreement without hesitation.

As Nanxiang's girlfriend (whom she had already accepted in her heart), she never wanted to hide this relationship from outsiders.

Although he has not yet made a direct confession to Nanxiang.

But it already has the added bonus of indirect kissing and overnight stay.

Ms. Shinjo was already full of confidence.
