They are really too low!

Hoshino paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and asked, "Who's following you?"

“A stranger like him looks disgusting.” Xingyue Feng gritted her teeth, her voice sounding very annoyed. “Look behind you, there’s a perverted old man.”

Hoshino looked up, his gaze inadvertently sweeping across the entire street, finally landing on the road behind him, where there was indeed an uncle pretending to look down at his phone.

"How long has he been following you?" Hoshino asked, observing carefully.

“I’ve been following him for about half an hour since the tram started. It’s disgusting. Several times I’ve thought about just going back and kicking him away!” Xingyue Feng gritted her teeth. According to her personality, she is not a delicate girl.

"He didn't do anything, he just followed behind you?" Hoshino looked away and turned to look at Hoshizuki Kaede and Hoshizuki Rin.

"Otherwise, if it weren't for this, I would have kicked him already!" Xingyue Feng hated this kind of pervert who followed girls home, especially considering that the other party's target might also be his sister.

Xingyueling didn't speak, but she didn't seem scared either. I don't know what she was looking at, but she kept staring intently.

“How about I escort you for a while?” Hoshino thought for a moment. “I’m more familiar with this area. I’ll lead you around, and if he follows, I’ll help you deal with him.”

Hoshizuki Kaede had originally planned to do the same. Although she was very angry, she considered that the other party was a man and she might not be able to beat him, so she thought of calling out to Hoshino Mi.

Seeing that Hoshino Mi offered to help almost without thinking, Hoshizuki Kaede felt inexplicably embarrassed. Was she just causing Hoshino Mi trouble?

"Could it be... could it be a little... to Hoshino Manabu..."

"Something?"

"Nothing, I didn't say anything!"

Hoshizuki Kaede quickly concealed her expression. She was the one who called out to Hoshino Mi, but now she felt embarrassed and wanted to refuse Hoshino Mi's help. Wouldn't that make her seem like a green tea bitch?

Well, he's Kasugano Sora's brother anyway, so asking him for a favor shouldn't be a big deal.

Hoshizuki Kaede comforted herself while secretly glancing at Hoshino Mi. It was strange; even though it had only been two or three days, why did Hoshino Mi seem more charming than before?

When she saw Hoshino Mi just now, she greeted her without even thinking, and inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

In particular, Hoshino's calm demeanor when she heard that someone was following them gave Hoshino a sense of security.

Hoshizuki Kaede couldn't help but let her mind wander, while Hoshino Ken next to her hung the shopping bag on the handlebars and then started pushing his bicycle.

“Come with me,” Hoshino said.

"Okay, okay!" Xingyue Feng snapped out of her daze, secretly scolding herself for thinking such nonsense, and immediately pulled Xingyue Ling along to follow.

At first, Hoshizuki Kaede was a little nervous because she noticed that since she and her sister had been following Hoshino Mi, there were more and more people staring at them.

What are these guys looking at? Haven't they ever seen twins before?!

Xingyue Feng was secretly annoyed. She knew that she and her sister were attractive, and since junior high school, boys had been trying to chat them up.

There was no particular reason; they were simply a rare pair of twin sisters, and being beautiful, they naturally became the ideal targets for most men.

Therefore, Xingyuefeng could always feel the malicious gazes around her.

This time, as they followed behind Hoshino, they could even hear people whispering among themselves.

"That guy is so handsome," "Should I go talk to him?" "Looks like someone beat me to it," "Only twins could snag such a good-looking guy..."

Xingyue Feng silently looked away; she hadn't heard anything.

"Was Hoshino-senpai buying something just now?" Hoshizuki Kaede asked, seemingly trying to shift her attention to Hoshino's shopping bag.

"Well, the weather's nice today, perfect for going out, so I thought I'd buy some things to take home..."

As she was speaking, Hoshino's voice suddenly stopped.

He finally noticed that the bag in the front basket was swaying in the wind, vaguely revealing something strange.

Not only that, Hoshino noticed Hoshizuki Rin's gaze at this moment, realizing that she had been staring intently at the comics inside the bag the whole time.

Seemingly noticing that Hoshino was looking at her, Hoshizuki Rin raised her pretty face and met Hoshino's gaze for a moment.

[Intimacy: 4 → 8]

Hoshino immediately looked away. "I didn't usually catch your attention, but now you're interested in manga, huh?"

"Hey, what did you buy, senior? Is it snacks?" Xingyue Feng asked curiously, even though she could tell.

“That’s right, it’s snacks.” Hoshino’s gaze was unfocused. She hadn’t expected that the first person to discover the manga was not Kasugano Sora, but the junior she had just met.

Xingyue Feng was a little envious. She watched for a while before reluctantly turning her pretty face away.

"Do you want some?" Hoshino noticed Hoshizuki Kaede's reaction early on, because no girl is immune to greed. "I bought a lot today, and it's quite heavy. If you'd like to help me carry some, I would be very grateful."

"Really?" Xingyue Feng's eyes lit up, but she still felt embarrassed; she wasn't stupid.

"Sure." Hoshino smiled and immediately took out a few bags of snacks and handed them over.

"Then... thank you, senior!" Xingyue Feng couldn't help but smile. Let bygones be bygones about the embarrassment from before!

Hoshino looked at Hoshizuki Rin and silently took out some snacks; these were the hush money.

Xingyueling didn't immediately take the snacks, but quietly watched him.

These comics aren't mine, Hoshino tried to communicate with her eyes.

However, before Hoshizuki Rin could react, Hoshino heard Hoshizuki Kaede casually ask, "Senior, what's that bag over there? It doesn't look like snacks..."

Halfway through his sentence, Xingyuefeng suddenly froze.

Hoshino felt a little melancholy. It turned out that social death could also happen to him. He should have known better than to accept Sawamura Sayuri's gift.

With Kasugano Sora by his side, he wouldn't have had a chance to peek at the manga, so there was no point in accepting the gift in the first place.

"Senior!?" Xingyue Feng blushed, as if her reflexes had finally returned.

"If I said someone gave it to me, would you believe me?" Hoshino asked seriously.

However, this explanation did not seem to solve the problem. On the contrary, Xingyue Feng's pretty face became increasingly red, almost as if steam was rising from it.

“Every boy has this kind of fetish, Feng, you need to calm down.” Xingyue Ling’s voice was very soft, unlike Ruoye Mu, it sounded somewhat indifferent.

Hoshino had no time to be surprised, because Hoshizuki Kaede's reaction was even more intense.

"Ugh... Calm down, Rin's right, boys all have these kinds of things, it's normal for you to have them too..." Xingyue Feng suddenly covered her head, "Normal my foot! Who would put something like this in their bike basket so openly? Why didn't you ask the clerk for one of those black bags, senior!"

"A black bag?" Hoshino was taken aback.

"That's right, there are usually special bags for storing these kinds of things!" Xingyue Feng's ears turned almost red. It was really too much for a girl, even if he was an upperclassman, to see something like this!

"Maple, calm down." Xingyue Ling said, looking at Xingye Jian. "We didn't see anything."

Hoshino remained silent. Your sister shouted so loudly, can you really pretend that nothing happened?

Xingyueling walked forward and reached out to help Xingyejian tie a knot in the bag. Although it couldn't guarantee that it would be 100% hidden, it could block most of the contents.

“It’s alright now, Maple,” Xingyueling said.

Seeing her sister's actions, Xingyue Feng finally calmed down, though her face was still slightly flushed.

"Senior, we didn't see anything." Xingyue Feng took a deep breath. "But it's best not to do this again. It's embarrassing to show something like that."

"I'll be careful." Hoshino saw that he had given up struggling.

Xingyue Feng probably thought he was sad, so she quickly said, "Actually, I'm not looking down on you, senior. Boys all have these things, it's really normal!"

“Feng and I used to confiscate a lot of comics when we were in the student council,” Xingyueling added. “They were all boys’ stuff.”

“That’s right, that’s right!” Xingyue Feng said seriously, “This kind of thing can only be kept at home, it can’t be taken outside or to school, not even to the upperclassmen!”

Hoshino nodded numbly. If you don't want to discuss a certain topic, you can ignore it and not reply.

"Hmm, but I didn't expect that senior would be interested in this kind of thing. It's a bit unexpected." Xingyue Feng muttered to herself. She had a good impression of Xingye Jian and never thought she would see something like this.

However, just as Hoshizuki Rin said, Hoshino Mi is also a boy, and it's inevitable that he will have the desires of puberty.

Hoshizuki Maple secretly glanced at Hoshino Mi. It was strange; she should have felt disgusted by that thing, but looking at Hoshino Mi's face, she couldn't feel any disgust at all. Instead, she felt even closer to her.

Maybe she reads manga herself and that's why she discovered that Hoshino Mi has this side to her, which is why she felt close to her... What kind of closeness is that?!

Xingyue Feng blushed deeply. What was she thinking? He was just a boy, a handsome senior. Why was she so concerned?

Despite thinking this way, it's undeniable that Hoshino Mi inexplicably exudes an extremely attractive aura, making Hoshizuki Kaede unable to resist continuing to steal glances.

Of course, she wouldn't know that Hoshino Mi has the [Charm] effect. Even though it hasn't reached the highest level yet, her current state is already hard for ordinary people to ignore.

Especially for girls, this strong aura is even more difficult to ignore, and the more they like it, the less they can control their physical impulses.

"Maple?" Xingyueling seemed puzzled and called her name softly.

"Ah, what... what happened to me?" Xingyue Feng turned her head away, somewhat flustered and even guilty.

Xingyue Ling glanced at her, then at Xingye Jian beside her, her expression thoughtful.

Chapter 103 I Will Help My Sister

[Intimacy: 12 → 15]

A system notification flashed before his eyes. Hoshino turned his head slightly and saw Hoshizuki Kaede eating snacks. A strange feeling washed over him.

The younger sister is interested in comics, while the older sister is interested in snacks?

Hoshino hesitated, wondering if he should simply give the manga to Hoshizuki Rin and all the snacks to Hoshizuki Kaede, hoping that this would further increase their [intimacy level].

Although he doesn't necessarily have to have anything happen between him and the twin sisters, some rewards would be nice, and they can be considered friends in the future.

Hoshino convinced herself that no boy would dislike being friends with twin sisters.

However, he still couldn't bring himself to say it.

Come to think of it, how could such a comic possibly be given away? The atmosphere had already become extremely awkward just now. Hoshino sighed, knowing that he would definitely face Kasugano Sora's questioning when he got back.

"Does Senior live nearby?" Xingyue Feng suddenly asked. She had already eaten a bag of potato chips, and her fair, jade-like fingers were covered with potato chip crumbs.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Hoshino asked, wanting to start a conversation.

“Because senior seemed to be very familiar with the roads here, and he just said he would lead us on a detour.” Xingyue Feng gently pressed down on the corner of her mouth, not letting her smugness show too early, and continued with a slightly reserved tone, “Actually, Ling and I also live nearby.”

Seeing Hoshino's surprised expression, Hoshizuki Kaede smiled sheepishly.

"No wonder you came back in this direction just now."

"Hmm, but we shouldn't live in the same neighborhood. I haven't seen senior and Xiaoqiong every time I go to and from school."

"Didn't we just happen to run into each other today?"

"Senior, the way you're talking sounds like you're deliberately timing this!"

“It’s fate.” Hoshino raised an eyebrow. “Otherwise, I should be the one suspecting that you two are freeloading here.”

"No, there really was a perverted old man following us!" Xingyue Feng blushed slightly. Although the snacks were delicious, her mouth wouldn't readily admit it.

“We haven’t seen him for a long time,” Hoshino said slowly. “At first, we could still see his silhouette, but he probably gave up later.”

Xingyue Feng quickly turned around to look, but the other person had already disappeared.

Damn it, they followed them for half an hour, but when they saw a guy next to them, they gave up so quickly. They really are perverted stalkers!

On one hand, Xingyue Feng felt fortunate, because if the other party had followed her all the way home, who knows what might have happened. On the other hand, she also felt angry.

"Are you still worried?" Hoshino turned her head to the side.

"No, thank you for your help, senior. Otherwise, Ling and I would have been considering whether to go back and beat him up." Xingyue Feng didn't want him to know what she was thinking.

"So Hoshizuki can fight?" Hoshino seemed quite surprised, looking Hoshizuki Kaede up and down her soft, delicate body.

"What can't I do? I could take on a hundred of those perverted old men," Xingyue Feng couldn't help but say fiercely. "Does senior also think I'm a delicate girl?"

"That's not what I meant. I was just wondering if doing a hundred would be too tiring?" Hoshino said, looking thoughtful.

"Senior!" Xingyue Feng exclaimed in exasperation, "A hundred of them are metaphors! They are examples!"

"So it was just talk?" Hoshino smiled slightly.

“Yes, Feng doesn’t fight.” Xingyueling seemed to agree wholeheartedly, adding as if to confirm.

"Ling, how could even you be like this!" Xingyue Feng's eyes widened, feeling inexplicably betrayed.

“She’s advising you to calm down.” Hoshino was still smiling. “Although I agree with your idea that we should be ruthless towards dangerous people, you two are girls after all. The best way is to just run away instead of fighting.”

"Otherwise, are we supposed to let that pervert follow us all the way home?" Hoshizuki Kaede muttered under her breath. Even though she knew Hoshino was right, she still wanted to appear tough.

“You can lure him to my house next time,” Hoshino said seriously. “We’re practically neighbors anyway, I’ll teach that pervert a lesson for you.”

Xingyue Feng frowned. If living nearby counts as being neighbors, then if they move to the vicinity of the Imperial Palace in the future, can they also claim to be relatives of the Emperor?

"I'm sorry, Feng is just that kind of troublesome person." Xingyue Ling looked up at Xingye Jian, a movement that made her breasts unconsciously lift up a little, making them appear particularly full and perky.
