I have bound two systems.

In Isshiki Iroha's eyes, Nakamura is a very complex and tragic character.

The reason she suddenly thought of this person at this moment was not because of meaningless emotion, but because she suddenly had an idea.

Nakamiya Meirei was able to gain Chisato Suzumiya's trust, and thus learn of his true nature and any plans.

So if I can find a way to do it, can I replicate what Nakamura Beibei did, gain the trust of Chisato Suzumiya, and then know his true nature?

Such a bold idea emerged in Isshiki Iroha's mind.

She felt her heartbeat quicken.

This plan is undoubtedly difficult to implement, but what is certain is that if it succeeds, the benefits it will bring will be huge.

You can understand from watching those spy movies and business war movies how terrible and irreparable losses a person who is in an important position but suddenly turns against his enemies at a critical moment can bring to the enemy.

But the idea is good, but there are still a few very important issues.

In a dream.

Regarding Nakamiya Meiri, she and Suzumiya Chisato lived in the same orphanage during their childhood, and to some extent, they know each other very well.

Besides, it was after they had spent that crazy night together that Chisato Suzumiya was sure of her feelings for him from her behavior and admiring eyes. Only after he was sure that she would most likely help him did he feel comfortable and bold enough to let her assist him.

When Isshiki Caiyu looked back at herself, she realized that in reality, not only did she have no connection with Suzumiya Chisato, she also had never had such a... such a night with him.

The relationship between the two people so far can only be described as a preliminary acquaintance. The common and incredible dreams they experienced can barely be regarded as the connecting point of their relationship, but this does not play any role in enhancing their trust.

So, we have to think of other ways.

Isshi Iroha's original idea slowly changed as she thought about it.

She no longer planned to use casual methods to extract the "truth" she wanted to know from Chisato Suzumiya during her interactions with her.

The obviously defensive reaction of the opponent just now sounded the alarm for her. This strategy of pinning hopes on the opponent's mistakes has too much randomness and is not perfect. Besides, the opponent is not a fool, but a very difficult guy.

Isshi Iroha decided to act according to the method that just suddenly occurred to her.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't have the BUFF of a childhood sweetheart. She can use the reason that she has just asked Chisato Suzumiya to be her love counselor to deepen his understanding of her step by step, slowly bring them closer to each other, and let him know that she is someone he can trust. In that way, she will definitely achieve her goal in the end!

This is a more mature and perfect plan compared to the previous one!

"Sir, sorry for the long wait. Please follow me."

A haunted house staff member, with an arrow in the head, a dagger stuck in the chest, and his shirt covered in glaring dark red blood stains, came up to the two of them and politely took them to the entrance of the haunted house experience hall.

The schoolbag was placed at the bar for safekeeping. Isshiki Caiyu looked at the dimly lit entrance and swallowed unconsciously.

Chisato Suzumiya looked at her like this and tried to persuade her.

"If you are really scared, don't force yourself. After all, if you want to ask that senior out later, there are many other ways."

Isshiki Iroha quickly shook her head.

Are you kidding? The tickets are already bought.

Besides, haunted houses may sound scary, but they are essentially entertainment attractions.

To put it bluntly, it is a venue that has been arranged in advance. When you enter it, you may be scared by the music, the environment, and the scary-looking staff, but as long as you firmly believe in your heart that it is all fake, you will not feel excessive fear.

Isshiki Caiyu slowly sorted out her thoughts and breathed a sigh of relief.

"let's go."

She walked forward and took the lead into the entrance of the haunted house.

Chisato Suzumiya followed behind her.

The spacious entrance gradually became narrower, and the corridor became darker and more eerie. Only the dim scarlet light underfoot illuminated the distorted and hideous words written on both sides of the wall.

The horror atmosphere is well rendered, and I can feel it as soon as I enter.

"Senior...Is the temperature in here suddenly getting lower?"

Isshiki Caiyu clasped her arms together and rubbed them gently back and forth.

She only seemed eager to try the moment she entered the entrance of the haunted house, but after officially arriving inside the haunted house, her pace obviously slowed down. After waiting for Chisato Suzumiya to catch up, she deliberately adjusted her pace and always followed closely beside him.

This small action was very covert, but it still couldn't escape someone's observation.

Suzumiya Chisato calmly turned her head to look at her, then said lightly,

"Unqualified."

"Eh?"

Such an irrelevant answer made Isshi Caiyu stunned and she stopped walking.

After taking two steps out, Suzumiya Chisato looked back at her and explained,

"Didn't we agree before that the purpose of me accompanying you here is to serve as a rehearsal for your appointment with that senior later?"

"Ah... that's right."

"So let's assume that during a date, if we consider it from this perspective, then what you just said is not up to standard."

This time, Chisato Suzumiya directly stretched out her hands and crossed them to form an X shape.

"……Oh."

Isshi Caiyu understood that the other party's statement was reasonable and even considerate of her, but for some reason she felt a little unhappy.

This emotion comes out of nowhere, but it does exist.

Isshi Iroha started walking again, her hands no longer gently clasped around her arms, but folded behind her back.

She deliberately didn't look at Suzumiya Chisato, but turned her gaze forward and asked,

“Why not?”

"You said before that you are still in the stage of having a crush on that senior."

"kindness."

"If the other person is as smart as I am, he might be able to guess what you think of him from what you just said."

"Senior, you are too narcissistic. How could you be so exaggerated? I was just complaining about the sudden drop in temperature."

"It may be just a casual remark to you, but when two people are alone in such an environment, it is hard not to make the person who hears it think too much and wonder if this sentence contains some kind of hint."

Suzumiya Chisato looked at Isshiki Iroha and said seriously,

"For example, 'Does she want me to take off my coat and put it on her?' This is my first advice for your relationship. If your relationship with that senior has not progressed to a certain level, then it is best not to say something like that so rashly that he will notice it. This is equivalent to giving him time to prepare in advance.

If he has a crush on you, then everything is fine. If not, then the situation will be quite passive. If you don't want to be in a passive situation from the beginning, then when you are getting along with that senior, you'd better cheer up and don't make similar mistakes again."

"...Ah, yes."

Isshi Caiyu was in a daze and only gave a subconscious reaction.

He really fulfilled his promise seriously and seriously put himself into the role of the love instructor he asked to be treated.

"Keep moving forward."

Suzumiya Chisato didn't say anything else and continued walking forward calmly.

"kindness……"

After hearing what he just said, Isshiki Caiyu, who was in a very confused mood, also slightly distanced herself from him.

Although they were still walking side by side, they were several fists apart.

As we continued walking forward, a bloody head suddenly fell from the ceiling accompanied by terrifying music!

"Well!……"

At that moment, Isshiki Iroha opened her eyes wide and took a step back, but she still had a sense of shame. After realizing that it would be embarrassing to scream, she covered her mouth tightly.

When she stopped, she felt someone patted her shoulder gently. She felt a little relieved and just as she turned her head to show strong determination to tell Chisato Suzumiya who was comforting her that she was not scared.

What came into her sight was a horrifying sight: a hand with only a skeleton left, resting on her shoulder!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Isshiki Yamaguchi was horrified and let out a very loud scream. After stomping her feet frantically on the spot, she hugged her head and leaned her back against the wall, gasping for breath.

But that’s not all. Apparently, the staff at the haunted house experience center anticipated that visitors would have such a reaction, so they also left mechanisms on the seemingly normal walls.

Isshiki Caiyu, who had her back against the wall, had not felt at ease for even a second when she suddenly felt her back and thighs being gently rubbed by something soft and disgusting. The feeling was like being licked gently, making her scalp tingle and extremely uncomfortable.

Isshiki Iroha almost catapulted away from the wall.

Her actions were predicted twice in a row, and now there was no place here that she could rely on with confidence.

Except for the person who came in with her, she naturally threw herself into the arms of Chisato Suzumiya, who had been standing there watching her jumping and screaming without any reaction.

This is the best option at this moment when the shock has not yet faded.

"This time, the actions were relatively natural, so I can give it an excellent rating."

Suzumiya Chisato still placed her hands naturally on both sides of her. She did not respond to Isshi Iroha's move to throw herself into his arms. She acted like a wooden stake, but she was still analyzing calmly.

"Girls who are frightened and lack a sense of security often give boys a strong desire to protect them. Next time if you go on a date with your senior in a haunted house, you can do this more often. The distance between you will be shortened at a very fast speed. At the same time, this will also be a special memory that belongs only to you two in a sense. You can make good use of it when you chat later."

"..."

Ischi Caiyu rushed in front of Suzumiya Chisato, grasped the front of his shirt tightly with both hands, lowered her head and listened to his words silently.

Her heart, which was still pounding due to excessive shock, calmed down at an incredible speed.

She slowly loosened her hands, and after her pupils stopped trembling, she silently took two steps back.

When she raised her head again, she showed her usual bright smile.

"I see. Thank you, senior."

"Then let's keep going."

"Good~"

What had just happened was just an appetizer for entering the haunted house. As the two continued to move forward, more terrifying and thrilling events continued to occur.

But no matter how scared Isshiki Caiyu was, she silently gritted her teeth, tightly grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands, and forced herself to act as calm as possible.

Until the two of them had completed the entire haunted house, Isshiki Caiyu no longer showed the panic reaction she had just shown.

…………

Chapter 250: Thinking of Both Sides

After coming out of the haunted house, Chisato Suzumiya asked to leave for the second time.

This time, Isshiki Caiyu, who was in a bad mood, did not try to persuade her to stay, but just nodded and agreed.

The atmosphere between the two people became silent due to the change in mood of one of them.

They walked to the station together, waved goodbye to each other before leaving, and got on different trains.

It was a little after seven o'clock when Isshiki Caiyu returned home.

Some older doors make a slight creaking sound when opened.

Mrs. Isshiki, who was in the living room, heard the sound and quickly got up and went to the entrance.

Although her daughter did not come back very late today and she had also informed them in advance, Mrs. Isshiki was still worried.

After all, my daughter's unusual behavior of asking for leave and locking herself in the room was indeed a bit scary.

"You're back, Caiyu. Dad will be back late tonight as usual. I've already prepared dinner, let's eat first."

"No need, mom. I've already eaten outside."

Isshi Caiyu answered sweetly and softly, behaving much more obediently than usual, a real good child.

She knew that her abnormal behavior some time ago made her family very worried, so she deliberately behaved very well during this period of time, so as not to make her parents worry about her anymore.

"Would you like me to serve you some food separately? If you get hungry later, you can just heat it up in the microwave."

"No, I came out of the library with my friend and had octopus balls and oden. I'm not hungry at all because my stomach is full."

After casually talking about the false but reassuring after-school activities, Isshiki Iroha took off her brown leather shoes and put them neatly into the shoe cabinet. After changing into fluffy pink slippers, she picked up her schoolbag on the floor.

"I feel like I didn't do well in this exam. I'll take a shower later. I'll go upstairs to study first."

"kindness."

After dealing with her mother, Isshiki Caiyu returned to her room on the second floor, and her bright expression instantly fell.
