For the peace of the Lonely Band, please sacrifice yourself!

Akiyama Mio looked at the boy across the steaming Sukiyaki pot. He seemed to be shrouded in a clear white light.

"The mutton is ready, do you want to eat it?"

"Eat, I'll eat whatever you give me, I'm not picky."

The girl took the blanched mutton with a smile, blew on it gently a few times, and put it into her mouth along with the rice.

Perhaps it was because the Sukiyaki pot was too close, the hot temperature was transmitted to Akiyama Mio's fair cheeks, and they began to turn red and warm.

Half an hour later, only two middle-aged men were left at the table, holding their glasses and talking about the past, from youth to family, from the babbling of Mochizuki Saku and Akiyama Mio to their grown-up children. They sighed from time to time, lamenting that time flies, and that they have gone from being young men in their prime to men with family responsibilities even though they haven't enjoyed life much.

Two girls with very different styles were lazily sitting in front of the TV playing games with competitive smiles on their faces.

After cleaning all the pots and pans, Wang Yueshuo brought over a fruit plate, leaned back on the sofa carelessly, glanced at the girls fighting fiercely, accurately picked up a strawberry from the fruit plate with his fingers, and put it elegantly into his mouth.

He closed his teeth and took a light bite. The rich juice in the strawberry burst out in his mouth, and he squinted his eyes unconsciously because of the comfort.

As expected, these are fresh strawberries from the greenhouse. The fruits are really big, juicy, and very delicious.

The boys enjoyed their meals, the girls played with great enthusiasm, and the game on the TV screen was in full swing. The girl wearing a black racing helmet, Mochizuki Rin, was driving her peerless horse Mo Qilin far ahead, and the inky black clouds were rushing across the deserted road.

"Mio, hehe, you didn't expect that, I'm an expert at racing games." Mochizuki Rin grinned arrogantly and said arrogantly:

"I will definitely be the winner of this game!!!"

"Really? That's not necessarily true, huh~"

Naturally, Akiyama Mio was not willing to be outdone. The snow-white chariot under her crotch followed closely behind. After passing two bends, she could already see signs of decline.

The girl snorted coldly and said calmly:

"My nitro tank has exceeded its limit!"

"what?!"

Sister Jiang was shocked and stunned to see a dazzling white light appearing beside the black unicorn. Suddenly, a loud roar was heard behind him, and a flowing blue flash appeared at the rear of Akiyama Mio's car.

The next moment, with a legendary drainage ditch turn, Akiyama Mio easily won the title of top one in the new map, Rapid Akina Mountain.

This move shocked everyone, even Mochizuki Shuo who was sitting behind them could not help but show a dumbfounded expression. Sister-chan's eyes were dull and her hands were weak. She let the handle fall from her hands and muttered in frustration:

"How is it possible? My driving ability is so weak? I can't even compare to a novice driver!"

"Mio, the devil is one foot high, but the Tao is ten feet higher. Don't underestimate the heroes of the world." Mochizuki Saku put the fruit plate next to the girls and said in a mature manner.

"Damn it... Isn't this a complete loss..."

The light disappeared from the girl's eyes.

"To me... it feels easier than the FPS game I played with you before?"

Akiyama Mio accepted Mochizuki Saku's praise with a smile, and gently hugged the depressed girl from behind. At the same time, she picked a strawberry from the fruit bowl with her nimble fingers and fed it to her sister, comforting her:

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll give you a strawberry as a reward for being the runner-up."

Shit... Is this really a comfort?

Mochizuki Shuo curiously sat next to them, put his legs together, and asked curiously:

"What's the reward for the champion?"

"Of course it is————" Mochizuki Rin quickly got rid of her melancholy, glanced at the 'ignorant' Onii-chan, she stretched out an index finger and put it in front of the boy's lips, signaling him not to ask more questions, and then deliberately dragged out the tone.

"--secret!"

The girl winked playfully and gave Shuo, who was listening attentively, a look that said, "You don't really think I'm going to tell you."

"?"

"This is a matter between me and Mio, the two contestants. It has nothing to do with you~"

Mochizuki Saku was stunned for a moment, then looked dumbfounded as Akiyama Mio stuffed a fresh strawberry into his mouth. A seductive smirk appeared on the girl's face.

"Okay, okay, then I won't bother you two anymore?"

Mochizuki Saku ate the strawberry in his mouth clean, glanced at the scene of 'sisters are friendly and sisters are respectful', waved his hand, and was about to turn around and leave.

"No, I'm going to take a shower. You can play with Mio for a while."

Mochizuki Rin grabbed Mochizuki Saku's trouser leg and acted pitifully.

"Um, I don't know how to play racing games."

Wang Yueshuo had no choice but to sit down again. Looking at the game homepage he had switched to, his eyes lit up. He pointed at the crowded game cover and suggested:

"How about we play this?"

"Nintendo Smash Bros."

Akiyama Mio held her chin and shook her head without much interest.

"Forget it, I'm actually better at console games."

Wang Yueshuo spread his hands and explained helplessly.

"Why don't you go back to your bedroom? You still have some Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun comics here, lend them to me."

"It's not impossible."

Although handsome and sunny in appearance, Mochizuki Shuo is not actually a member of the real-life ranks.

He has only a handful of friends he can talk to, not to mention that he is a member of the home-going department. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he goes home as soon as school is over.

He often calls himself an "otaku", so naturally there are countless comic books and light novels on his bedroom bookshelf, including both the orthodox and passionate novels like Death, Fire and Ocean, as well as the spicy girls' comics.

Akiyama Mio took out the comic book "Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun" from the bookshelf with ease, then lay on Mochizuki Saku's soft big bed, skillfully opened the comic book, looked at the vivid characters on the black and white pages, and smiled slightly.

"Would you like to listen to some music?"

After getting the girl's affirmative answer, Mochizuki Saku took down the folk guitar hanging on the wall, sat on the edge of the bed, glanced at Mio-chan who was eagerly waiting, smiled gently, and plucked the strings with his fingers, producing a clear melody.

He suddenly felt that rainy days were not bad.

"Rain, rain ...

"I'm so glad you picked me up with a big oil-paper umbrella"

"Drip, drip, splash, splash, splash, splash."

.......

"Huh!?!? MIO-chan is being followed?!" 3㈤○

In the activity room, Tianzhong Ritsu, who was leisurely crossing her legs, stared at the shy Akiyama Mio with her mouth wide open, and almost dropped the strawberry-flavored Pocky (chocolate bar) in her mouth.

"Speak softly, speak softly. I'm not being followed. I just feel like someone is watching me..." Akiyama Mio blushed, ran her fingers through her soft hair, circled the hair on her temples, and murmured to explain.

"I've been feeling a strong gaze since this morning..."

"Maybe it's because Mio-chan is a celebrity."

"It's not like that... The sight is like someone is watching me."

Akiyama Mio hugged her body weakly and frowned worriedly, but because of the incident with the senior president, she was not particularly scared.

The law team's golden eyes blinked again and again, and he thought for two seconds, then said: "Should we call Mochizuki over?"

"Ah... this... I have already sent the message."

Akiyama Mio's fingers, which were twirling around her hair, suddenly stopped and she smiled awkwardly at her childhood friend.

"...So, when will he come?"

Hearing that Akiyama Mio had invited all the people who were proficient in this field, she patted her chest with relief as if she were walking on the ground.

"About ten minutes later? I sent him a message at noon."

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?"

Xiao Zuohe's clear and gentle voice filled the quiet room as the door of the activity room was pushed open. She blinked and tilted her head curiously to ask.

"We were talking about Mio-chan being followed."

Pingze Wei made a prompt decision.

"Maybe, there may not really be someone there!"

Shy Mio corrected:

"I just always feel like someone is looking at me..."

"Hmm, whose gaze did you sense?" Yamanaka Sagoko thought for a moment, then suddenly raised her hands on her hips proudly, deliberately striking a very graceful pose:

"But, I've always been stared at by others~"

"Of course, because Saeka is just a good-looking guy."

Tian Zhongli complained, revealed a strange smile, and said suddenly:

"Could it be that the criminal who followed Mio was Sasawa?"

"How could that be? Xiaolu, you know me. If it were me, I wouldn't just stand there and watch~" Teacher Sago raised her voice playfully.

The two of them looked at each other, smiled knowingly, and burst into laughter.

Where is your role model???

Akiyama Mio covered her forehead in distress, suppressing her desire to complain.

No, these people are totally unreliable...

Let's wait until Saku comes. Although he always modestly says that his reasoning ability is not as good as Oreki's classmate from Kyoto Kamiyama High School, who can come up with a series of inferences that are very close to the facts as long as he is willing to think, it is at least better than these clowns who can only tell jokes and perform crosstalk.

"I say, everyone should seriously worry about Mio-senpai! She might be being targeted by a stalker!"

Just before Akiyama Mio was completely disappointed with the Light Music Club, the last conscience of the Light Music Club, Nakano Azusa, finally couldn't stand the nerves of the seniors and the instructor, and slammed the table and stood up, angrily scolding the officials.

"Azi-san..."

Akiyama Mio smiled with emotion.

"I see, in this case, the mystery is all solved..." Miss Kotobuki kept silent as she scanned Akiyama Mio's body several times. Suddenly, she stood up and said the classic line from "The Elementary School Student of Death":

"The criminal is Mr. Fried Rice and Bread!"

"Mr. Fried Rice and Bread? Who is that?"

Akiyama Mio tilted her head in confusion.

"Mio-chan, you had fried rice and bread for breakfast today, right?" Miss Kotobuki's eyes flashed with wisdom, and she made a firm judgment.

"Because I overslept this morning, I didn't have time to slowly eat breakfast, so I bought some bread from the school store."

"That fried noodles bread is 20% off, right?" Kotobuki Tsumugi asked with certainty.

"Why...why do you even know this?"

Akiyama Mio was horrified and moved her chair back two steps.

Kotobuki Tsumugi laughed with satisfaction, as sweet as a silver bell, leaned down, gently reached out and took off the discount label stuck on Mio-chan's black hair, and showed it to her.

Akiyama Mio looked carefully and saw that it was indeed the 20% off label for fried rice and bread for breakfast.

“Eh——? It’s something like this…”

"I see. This thing has been stuck to my hair for a whole day. No wonder everyone is staring at me. Yeah, that's understandable."

"Ugh! How embarrassing!!!"

After understanding everything, Akiyama Mio realized that this was just a farce of social demise. Her body suddenly stiffened and turned into gray-white smoke, waiting for a breeze to blow and take her away, and then she would disappear from the world.

"What are you spying on?"

"Wooah! Boys? Why are there boys in our school?!"

The girl behind the door seemed to be frightened by the male classmate who suddenly appeared behind her. She almost jumped three feet high and pushed open the door of the light music department without noticing. She glanced at the senior schoolmate who was drinking black tea elegantly and the "role model" teacher, Sagoko, and her pretty face blushed.

"Shuo, who are they?"

Akiyama Mio was startled, and looked at the boy who calmly pushed the door open in a daze.

"Um...I don't know even if you ask me." Wang Yueshuo blinked his 'stupid' eyes, turned around to look at the two girls lying on the ground, and answered in confusion.

"Eh...what kind of answer is that?"
