I endured the humiliation when I was besieged by the ghost story big sister

She took out her mobile phone and opened the social software. She seemed to be hesitating whether to send a message to Xi Mio or go directly upstairs to find him.

But what Arisa didn't know was that the scene of her sitting alone on the sofa in the living room and feeling sad was seen clearly by Ami in the bedroom.

The faint light emanating from those wine-red eyes slowly dissipated, but the corners of Yashi's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

She knew that what she had said to Arisa before had begun to take effect.

then.

"Shopping? Does it have to be today?"

Asa looked at her mother in front of her, who was still wearing a facial mask, and felt a little confused about the spur of the moment decision she made.

"Yes~ It would be best to invite Xi Mio and Fan Xia as well."

"Hey - forget about Xiao Mio, but why does Fan Xia want to come along too?"

The girl was now completely confused about what her mother was thinking about.

but……

After putting on her shoes and taking the elevator to the upper floor, Arisa couldn't help feeling a little happy.

It was as if having an excuse to hang out with Xi Mio would make her feel better, which made her more and more confused about what kind of feelings she had for Xi Mio.

Before she could think of an answer, she was already standing in front of the door of the apartment. She rang the doorbell and waited for a moment. Then she heard hurried footsteps coming from inside the house.

Then, she saw Xi Mio coming to open the door, and when he found out it was her, he looked surprised.

"Arisa? Why are you here?"

Xi Mio said with some surprise, and then quickly asked her to go into the house. After all, it was still quite cold outside, and he was not so cruel as to let Alisa stand outside like this.

"No... Mom asked me to ask, Xiao Mio, you and Fanxia, ​​if you want to go out for a walk this afternoon."

"Go shopping? Sure~ We have nothing to do in the afternoon anyway."

Without thinking, Xi Mio agreed and followed Alisa to the living room.

She immediately saw the plate used to hold breakfast on the table. She could even faintly smell the scent of cheese and fried ham.

Comparing it with the bread she had eaten in the morning, Arisa felt a little jealous for a moment, jealous that Fanxia could enjoy Xi Mio's care so legitimately.

So much so that the look she gave Fanxia who was sitting on the sofa became unfriendly.

"What? You wanna fight?!"

Hoxia, who also noticed Arisa's gaze, glared at the girl fiercely, looking unwilling to be outdone.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was suddenly filled with tension, Xi Mio quickly pulled the two people who were about to fight and told them the purpose of Arisa's visit.

"Eh? Are you going shopping this afternoon?"

"Well, with Aunt Asi and the others, if you don't want to go, that's fine too."

Xi Mio sat back on the sofa and said this to Fanxia. Her light blue eyes seemed to be expecting her answer.

The living room was quiet for a moment. Fanxia thought about it for a moment, and then after seeing Arisa's half-smile, she agreed decisively.

Afterwards, she went back to her room, apparently wanting to find some clothes to change into before going out.

"Then I'll go back and tell my mom. See you later, Xiao Mio."

After saying that, Arisa, who had already completed her mission, planned to go back and tell Asi, and pick out some nice clothes to go shopping in the afternoon.

a long time.

Because they had agreed to find a restaurant and have some afternoon tea later, Xi Mio did not prepare lunch.

Xi Mio had already changed into a loose, pure white hoodie suitable for going out. She was still wearing shorts, but she had added a pair of warm black leggings underneath.

The curves of the legs, without a trace of fat, are perfectly outlined, avoiding the risk of catching a cold.

At least, when seeing Nozomi's outfit, Fanxia and Alisa both approved of it.

However, Aunt Asi beside her had an intriguing expression, but no one knew what she was thinking, and Xi Mio didn't care too much.

"Speaking of which, although we are going shopping this time, Auntie Asami, do you actually want to buy anything?"

Xi Mio, who was walking on the road, asked curiously.

"Indeed~ I should say it's preparation for the holiday."

"Eh?"

At this time, Xi Mio still didn't quite understand what she meant by this sentence.

Until they came to a pedestrian street, most of the people walking around were wearing kimonos, and they looked like beautiful women from wealthy families.

Xi Mio thought that they would go shopping in Ginza again today, which made him feel a little curious.

Then, Asi, as if he was familiar with the route, led them to the door of a store that looked very retro, but Xi Mio did not see any sign on the roof.

"here it is?"

"I often order clothes from this store, and the owner and I are old acquaintances."

Asami introduced them to Nozomi, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

Chapter 98: Everyone who solves the riddle must die!

jingle--

As Yashi pushed open the shop door and walked into the shop with a few people behind him, the sound of the bell behind the door continued to echo in the house, as if reminding the proprietress that a customer had come.

The decoration inside the store is mainly in retro style, with tatami floors throughout, leaving only a small floor tile at the entrance for customers to place their shoes.

"Welcome~Are you here to pick up the clothes you ordered, or are you looking for custom-made ones?"

The beautiful woman who heard the noise at the door, also wearing a gorgeous kimono, slowly walked out from behind the counter.

Then, when she saw Yashi who was looking at her with a smile, her originally serious fake smile used for business suddenly became a little surprised and revealed her true feelings.

"Ashi? Why is it you? You didn't tell me you were coming here, and who are those people behind you?"

The proprietress instantly turned into Yashimi's best friend, walked up to her and pulled her towards the store.

This made Xi Mio and Alisa who were standing behind them stunned, and they felt that they couldn't say anything at all.

“This should be a shop selling kimonos, right?”

Xi Mio asked Sister Fanxia in a low voice, looking around curiously. This was his first time coming to a store that specialized in selling these kinds of clothes.

"Not only kimonos, but also yukatas are displayed in the display case over there."

"So, what is Auntie Asi bringing us here for?"

Nozomi and Fanxia, ​​who were unable to come to a conclusion with the discussion, looked at Arisa, who had been silent since a while ago.

It seemed that he wanted to get an answer from the girl.

But Arisa just shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she had no way to deal with her mother's unpredictable thoughts.

"I don't know... maybe she has some idea in her mind."

However, Ya Shi did not make them wait too long. After greeting the proprietress, she called them over.

I only heard her speaking softly to Xi Mio and the others.

"Come on, come here and let me measure your size."

"Eh?"

This time, not only Nozomi, but also Alisa and Fanxia were confused and didn't quite understand why she did this.

"Wait... this isn't good, is it?"

Seeing that Asami seemed to want to buy a set of clothes for each of them, Fanxia quickly stepped forward and tried to dissuade her from the idea.

"It's just one yukata per person. The boss lady only charges us the cost because of our friendship. You don't have to worry about the price."

As she spoke, she walked up to Fanxia and whispered something into her ear.

Anyway, Xi Mio, who was watching from the side, obviously noticed the change in Sister Fanxia's expression, and couldn't help but be curious about what Aunt Asi said to her.

next moment.

Sister Fanxia changed her previous statement and nodded to help Xi Mio agree. Then she couldn't wait to push the boy over to measure the size.

"Hey... Sister Fanxia? What are you doing? What did Auntie Asami say to you just now?"

"Well, don't worry about that, Xiao Mio. Just go and try on the clothes. I'll pay for the clothes for you, Xiao Mio~"

After that, Xi Mio was pushed by Fanxia into the store, into a room that was used to measure the customers' sizes and make custom clothes.

For a moment, the only people left in the room were Xi Mio standing there and the shop owner who was looking at her with a smile.

"Ah~ I didn't expect you to come in first. Come on, raise your hands."

She took out a tape measure and walked around Xi Mio, as if observing the boy's body shape, and then put the tape measure around the boy's body.

a long time.

With the skilled operation of the proprietress, they all measured their sizes quickly.

After a busy day, those who had not had lunch found a cafe near the pedestrian street and sat down to have some afternoon tea to fill their stomachs.

Xi Mio, who was finally able to sit down and rest, asked Aunt Asi directly without even looking at the menu.

"What are we going to do when we buy yukatas, Auntie Asami? There aren't any festivals or anything like that these days..."

however.

Asami still had no intention of telling Hiro and Alisa what her plan was.

On the contrary, Fanxia, ​​who was sitting next to Xi Mio, was drinking lemonade leisurely, looking like she was watching a show.

Just now, when they were in the store, Asi had already told her about her next plans, so she agreed to buy her a yukata without hesitation.

Facing Xi Mio and his daughter's puzzled looks towards him, Ami smiled slightly.

"Wait until next Monday when you get your grades back from school, and I'll tell you what to do with buying a yukata~"

"Eh--"

Her words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the two people.

But other than that, the two of them didn't dare to say anything. They just picked up the menu silently and looked at what they wanted to eat.

……

After such a peaceful weekend.

On Monday morning, Nozomi and Alisa went back to school to get their grades and do their winter vacation homework. They were sitting in their seats, listening to the teacher at the podium talking about things to pay attention to during the holidays.

"From your expression, it seems like you did quite well in the exam~"

Xi Mio, who was bored, couldn't help but glance at the pretty face of Alisa who was sitting next to her. It seemed that she was in a very good mood.

As for the report card, she had been keeping it secret from the beginning and refused to show it to him, saying that she would wait until he got back and let Aunt Asi take a look at it.

Not long after, the teacher finished giving them all the notices, and he and Alisa quickly packed their bags and prepared to go back.

Before leaving, Xi Mio did not forget to go to the third cubicle in the men's restroom and say hello to Miss Hanako, whom she had not seen for a long time.

During the holidays, he would bring some desserts from time to time, come to visit her, and then leave in a hurry, change his indoor shoes at the bottom of the teaching building, and follow Arisa out of the school.

On the tram.

"Arisa, do you still remember what Aunt Asami said?"

"You said you would tell us about it after the results are released, right? Didn't you find out anything from Fanxia, ​​Mio?"

After hearing what Alisa said, Xi Mio shook her head helplessly.

"No matter how I try to get Sister Fanxia to talk, it's useless. She just won't say anything..."

He had no choice but to obey and wait until the results were released today before asking Aunt Yashi what she was planning to do.

She bought yukatas specially and didn't tell them what she was going to do. I always felt that she was preparing some surprise for herself and Alisa.

Xi Mio couldn't help but think so.
