I have bound two systems.

"Sorry, the final exam is coming up soon, and I still want to stay at home and study hard."

“I see… That’s right.”

After a while, the doorbell rang.

"Hey, you're back so soon..."

Yuigahama Yui stood up and walked towards the entrance. Yukinoshita Yukino, who was quite concerned, put down the picture book in her hand and followed her.

As soon as the door opened, Isshi Caiyu had a sullen face and didn't say a word. The full of energy he had just shown disappeared, and he walked in sullenly.

Just as Yuigahama Yui was about to ask, she met the eyes of a blonde girl with twin ponytails standing at the entrance of the Suzumiya residence opposite her.

The other person put his hand on the door lock, noticed that Yuigahama Yui was looking at him, smiled slightly to express his goodwill, and then gently closed the door.

This scene was also seen by Yukinoshita Yukino.

She looked down thoughtfully at Isshiki Caiyu, who took off her shoes and hugged her waist as if she had been wronged outside and came home to find her parents. She felt helpless and at a loss as to what to do.

It seems that Isshiki was severely traumatized by what that girl said just now, which is why she is in such a distraught state now.

Isshi Iroha slowly let go of Yuigahama Yui's hand after being comforted by her soft voice, and returned to the living room.

"Um...what happened, Iroha-chan?"

Yuigahama Yui asked carefully in an extremely gentle voice.

Yukinoshita Yukino pretended to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact she pricked up her ears silently.

"Nothing, but Yui-senpai..."

With a gloomy look in her eyes, Isshiki Iroha did not want to explain too much about what had just happened. She asked a question in a low voice,

"No matter how good a couple's relationship is, there is always a possibility that they will break up, right?"

"what?"

This question was obviously beyond the scope of Yuigahama Yui, and the most important question now was...

Caiyu-chan, what do you mean by asking such a question? It's hard not to be worried!

"Well... that... Caiyu-chan, I think that if you try something over and over again and still can't see any hope of success, it's better to stop there and give up."

As a senior student, she expressed her most sincere advice.

But Isshiki Caiyu turned a deaf ear to her and seemed not to have heard what she said at all.

She clenched her fists silently, and looked extremely angry as she whispered,

"What the hell... that woman, why is she showing off... I won't give up just because of this..."

"..."

Yuigahama Yui gently touched Isshiki Iroha's head to try to calm her down as soon as possible, then gave a wry smile and looked at Yukinoshita Yukino for help.

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head silently. As for Isshiki Iroha's love affair, seeing her unwillingness to give up until she hits the wall, it would be useless to say anything at this stage.

However, the idea that she used to be completely unacceptable about this has now become a little more understandable to her.

If we ignore the nature of her flowery nature, Chisato Suzumiya is indeed a very outstanding person who deserves the title of "genius" in the eyes of the world.

If it were Isshiki Caiyu, it would be understandable that she would be so obsessed with him.

------

"I don't know if my words were a bit harsh... But I didn't lie. Qianli was indeed exhausted the whole night yesterday. He was busy cramming for various matters related to setting up an office. Now he is catching up on his sleep. How could he let others disturb his rest..."

After closing the door, Eriri Sawamura muttered to herself, went back to the kitchen, tied on her apron, and prepared the trimmed pork ribs she had bought from the supermarket early in the morning.

When the doorbell rang just now, Eriri was afraid that Suzumiya Chisato who was catching up on her sleep would be woken up, so she ran to open the door immediately, and then saw Isshi Iroha standing at the door.

After seeing her, the other party's exquisite smile was slightly embarrassed for a moment, and then Isshiki Caiyu quickly explained her purpose, saying that the reason she came was to ask Qianli for help with some study problems.

Eriri took a quick glance at Isshiki Caiyu. She had light makeup on her face, smelled of nice perfume, and her hair looked like it had been carefully maintained.

In addition, the length of the skirt is too short, which makes people feel that she will reveal her private parts if she just bends slightly or sits down.

In addition, he said he came to ask for advice and learn, but he came with empty hands and did not bring any books.

This carefully prepared "battle" posture made Eriri understand in just a moment what Isshi Iroha was thinking and the purpose of her visit.

So she smiled and mentioned the fact that Suzumiya Chisato was catching up on sleep, and she had no intention of waking him up. The implication was obviously a polite refusal, asking Isshiki Caiyu to go back for the time being.

During the communication process, the two people kept smiling from beginning to end, maintaining apparent decency and harmony.

This is the intrigue hidden in their hearts, and how much is there exactly, probably only the two parties involved can explain it clearly.

A little later, around one o'clock in the afternoon, Suzumiya Chisato woke up to the smell of his favorite corn and pork ribs soup.

After washing up, he sat at the dining table and ate his meal while listening to the young woman picking up food for him from time to time.

"Ichi Caiyu came this morning. Did she make an appointment with you, Qianli?"

"Isshiki? No, what's wrong with her?"

I said, if we had made an appointment in advance, she probably wouldn't be so easy to talk to and would have just left.

"She said she wanted to ask you for help with a study problem, but I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you up and let her go first."

Eriri looked at Chisato Suzumiya's handsome profile and sighed silently in her heart.

It is a good thing to have a good-looking partner. Even if you have disputes when you are together, your anger will instantly disappear as long as you see his face. He also looks quite pleasing to the eye when nothing is going on. Not to mention that according to the law of genetics, this is also good for the next generation of babies.

However, this advantage may sometimes give rise to additional troubles. For example, even if he has no such intention and just does his own thing normally, he will unconsciously attract many beautiful girls, which is very distressing.

There are already four of them now. If we don’t keep a close eye on them, who knows if this number will continue to increase several times.

Kasumigaoka Utaha isn't here today, so it was the right decision for me to come here specially.

"She seems to be at the neighbor's house across the street now. Do you want to go over and say hello to her?"

Eriri asked in a seemingly caring manner.

Chisato Suzumiya suddenly smiled and reached out to scratch her nose.

Ying Lili felt that her little thoughts seemed to be seen through, but she still pretended not to know and said,

"What are you doing suddenly?"

Chisato Suzumiya did not expose it,

"No need to say hello. I'll call her back sometime later. Video transmission is so convenient nowadays. If she has any questions, I can just teach her online. She doesn't have to come to me specially."

"kindness."

Ying Lili got the answer she wanted. Although she seemed nonchalant on the surface, she still slightly curled her lips and picked up her bowl with satisfaction.

------

The streets were quite lively on Sunday evening.

Starting from the afternoon, Chisato Suzumiya could hear "boom boom boom" sounds coming from a certain direction while staying at home.

It wasn't an unexpected incident. Suzumiya Chisato guessed that maybe it was a fireworks test launch somewhere nearby?

In short, when summer comes and the weather gradually gets warmer, there seem to be more and more activities like this, big or small.

If you walk on the streets at this time, you can also feel the noisy and enthusiastic atmosphere that is very suitable for summer.

There are more and more girls wearing belly-baring tops and miniskirts, and most men are feasting their eyes on them.

It is said that it was during this period that the number of incidents involving "train maniacs" peaked.

As a man, Chisato Suzumiya is naturally not afraid of such incidents, but after getting on the train, he was approached by several waves of women in another way.

What was a great unexpected welfare event for others was very troubling to him.

Fortunately, this process did not last long. Suzumiya Chisato thought that after they met later, she would definitely complain to Kazusa about how popular she was. She followed the crowd out of the station and arrived at the gate of Kazusa's house at the appointed time.

After ringing the doorbell, it was not Kazusa who answered, but the voice of Aunt Ohara who was in charge of taking care of her.

"Suzumiya-kun, please come in."

"Ah... yes."

A little surprised, but without thinking too much, Suzumiya Chisato opened the door and walked in, took off her shoes and came to the living room.

Then he slowly opened his eyes, facing Aunt Obara's relieved smile and Touma Kazusa's shy gaze, and showed just the right expression of surprise.

She was wearing a light blue yukata dotted with small flowers, and her scarlet belt was quite eye-catching. Her long hair, which was draped over her shoulders most of the time, was now tied up, losing her free and easy and handsome temperament, and adding a sense of nobility. She looked completely different from usual, which was amazing.

"Okay, my mission is accomplished, you two young men, keep up the good work."

When passing by Suzumiya Chisato, Aunt Obara said with a smile,

"There are a lot of people at the fireworks display, so hold Kazusa's hand tightly and don't get separated."

Suzumiya Chisato came back to her senses from her shining eyes, and bowed slightly towards her with a bit of embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I will."

After Auntie Obara left with her hands covering her mouth and giggling, Touma Kazusa lowered her head and held her yukata tightly with both hands. It was obviously the first time she wore such clothes. She felt uncomfortable, a little embarrassed, and a little unconfident.

"This is something my mother commissioned without my permission. After Aunt Xiaoyuan took it back, she asked me to wear it when I went out with you today... Isn't it a bit too weird... It would be better for me to change back into casual clothes..."

Touma Kazusa took a step forward with a blushing face and wanted to go upstairs, but Suzumiya Chisato grabbed her wrist.

"Need not."

"but……"

"Well done, mom. Today's kiso is so beautiful that she looks like a princess."

"Well……"

"Now I don't even want to go out with Kazusa to watch the fireworks display. I just want to leave and hold you in my arms and never let go for the rest of my life."

"Say...what are you talking about!"

Touma Hesa ​​broke free from Suzumiya Chisato's hand and went to the second floor.

Suzumiya Chisato was anxious.

"Hesha, I'm not kidding, you really don't need to change!"

"Idiot! I'll get my wallet!"

………………

Chapter 28: Complex Feelings

Considering that there were a lot of people on the train at this time, Chisato Suzumiya chose to take a taxi directly to the fireworks display.

Touma's house was not far from the fireworks display, and the taxi only took a dozen minutes to arrive at the scene, stopping and starting at traffic lights along the way.

Chisato Suzumiya opened the door and got out of the car first, then she extended her hand to support Touma and Kazusa in a gentlemanly manner.

She was wearing wooden clogs today to go with her yukata, which made a distinct "tapping" sound when she walked. It was obvious that she couldn't handle this kind of shoes, as she walked unsteadily and shakily.

In addition, there were several times more people on the street than usual, so she never let go of Chisato Suzumiya's hand from beginning to end, and held it tightly.

Jingu Gaien is located in the center of Tokyo, covering an area of ​​about 70 hectares. It is adjacent to the Shinjuku business district and occupies the entire area from Yoyogi to Harajuku. It has the largest green space in the center of Tokyo.

Today's fireworks display will take place here.

Chisato Suzumiya had checked the information before coming here. In addition to being able to watch about 10,000 fireworks today, you can also buy a ticket to enter the Jingu Stadium to enjoy the singing and dancing performances by the stars and guests invited by the organizer.

If Hesha is still not satisfied after watching the fireworks display, I can ask her if she is interested.

"It is said that the ginkgo trees planted along the roadside from the entrance of Qingshan Avenue to the softball court stretch for more than 300 meters. When autumn comes, their leaves will be dyed golden yellow, which is particularly beautiful. We can come here again in a few months."

Chisato Suzumiya looked at Kasa, who looked particularly beautiful today, and told her in advance about her plans for the next few months.

But Touma and Sa just responded by saying that they heard it, but did not give an accurate response.

Suzumiya Chisato guessed that she might still be concerned about the yukata she was wearing, so she didn't care.

The closer you get to the fireworks display, the denser the crowd becomes. It's almost packed everywhere you look. All you can hear are noisy conversations and the honking of cars.

Only then did Suzumiya Chi finally understand why the driver had asked them to get off the bus near Kagurazaka Station and walk for a while.

If he had dared to drive a little further forward just now, he would have had no business for the day.

No wonder some people say that there are actually only two cities in Japan, Tokyo and the other.

This is a bit exaggerated, but there is some truth to it.

Chisato Suzumiya took out her cell phone and checked the time. It was a little after six o'clock.
