I won't be a loser.

When the summer cicadas are chirping: 289. Is it okay for me to squeeze in with you?

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. The three of them sat around the dining table, and while eating, they didn't know what to talk about.

Neither Mito Yuka nor Kento were good at starting a conversation. As soon as they sat down at the dining table, they fell into silence. As a guest, Ogiwara Sayu saw that neither of them spoke, and her words were choked in her mouth for a moment. In the depressing atmosphere, she was unable to speak.

When their eyes met by chance, they all lowered their heads silently, without communicating with each other, and remained silent.

"You and Xige, are working together?"

"Ah."

After thinking for a while, I realized that Mito Yuge must have been working just now, and Ogiwara Sayu was with her, so it was very likely that the two of them were working in the same store.

He asked Ogiwara Sayu and got a positive answer from her. Xianren showed an understanding expression and turned his gaze to Mito Yuka, hoping that she could explain the situation a little.

"Because it's vacation, Sayu was a little lonely at home, so she wanted to find a part-time job to help herself a little, so she came to ask me."

"Then you introduced the store you worked in. Did you two work together?"

"Ah."

Mito Yuka nodded, and Xianren also understood the general situation. Looking at the two girls in front of him, the confusion in his heart disappeared, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed.

After dinner, there was nothing to clean up as Mito Yuka was there, so Kento never had to worry about it. Ogiwara Sayu looked at the virtuous Mito Yuka, then looked at Kento who was sitting in the living room drinking warm tea, and her mood became a little subtle.

They stood up silently and helped to clean up. The wise man who stayed behind looked at the two of them. He didn't feel busy at all. After they cleaned up leisurely, they sat back in the living room. The three of them looked at each other.

"you--"

"Will you stay tonight?"

"what?"

Just as Ogiwara Sayu was about to speak, Kento, who was sitting in the living room, spoke first. He looked at Ogiwara Sayu in front of him, was silent for a while, and then interrupted the girl and made her fall into silence.

"It just so happens that I'm not planning on going back either. You can stay here tonight. The bed is a little small, but if you can squeeze it in, it won't be a big deal."

Glancing at Mito Yuge's single bed, she had originally planned to buy a cheaper bed, but now that it suddenly came in handy, she was able to verify the sage's foresight and his vision for product quality.

"what?"

"I'm not going back tonight, and it's getting dark outside. Are you planning to go back alone?"

"No...you...that? Huh?"

Ogiwara Sayu's brain went into a state of shutdown. She looked at the wise man in front of her and couldn't understand what he meant for a long time. In shock, she looked at Mito Yuka beside her and found that Mito Yuka's expression was still as calm as before, and the waves in her heart were even more agitated.

"That? What do you mean?"

"Are you staying overnight, or are you planning to walk back alone at night?"

"Why are you staying the night?"

"Why can't you stay the night?"

Sayu Ogiwara, who was sitting in the room, looked at the sage in front of her with a confused look. She opened her mouth, and there were many things she wanted to say, but in the end, they were completely choked back in her heart.

He took a deep breath, calmed his fluctuating emotions, looked at Mito Yuge beside him, and spoke awkwardly -

"Is it okay?"

"Hmm? It's okay, I don't mind. It's just that the bed is a little small, so it might be a bit tight. Sleeping in the same bed with a girl, like in a girls' meeting, I've had fantasies about that before."

A look of emotion appeared on Mito Yuge's face, which made Ogiwara Sayu fall silent.

From the book and her daily conversations with Mito Yuge, she had a general understanding of Mito Yuge's experience. Knowing what Mito Yuge had experienced, she felt that it was indeed a bit difficult for her to hold a pajama meeting or a girls' meeting with girls of the same age.

Not only does he not have a stable place to live, but he also has to work part-time in a restaurant every day to make a living. It is very hard work and he has no time to rest.

If I hadn't met the 'angel', I don't know what would have happened.

When she thought of the "angel", she looked at Kento who was standing aside with a natural expression and still drinking tea. Ogiwara Sayu couldn't help but feel confused. Kento's stare attracted her attention and he met her gaze.

“Describing myself as an angel in my own book is really…”

"Hmm? Ah, about the things in the book. That 'angel' is just my glorification of 'myself'. It's not me, it's not really me."

"Isn't your 'self' still you?"

"That's not the meaning."

Xianren didn't know how to explain it. He felt that even if he explained it, it might be difficult for Ogiwara Sayu to understand, so he gave up on explaining.

“But to me, that’s a sage.”

Mito Yuge spoke, her eyes as gentle as water, which made Xianren, who was still wanting to explain a little, pursed his lips and drank his tea quietly.

Looking at the good relationship between the two, it seems that compared to the relationship with Kiyoura Setsuna, it seems to be more...

Ogiwara Sayu was in a subtle mood. After looking at Mito Yuka for a while, her gaze stayed on Kento. Kento put down his teacup and looked at her again.

"So, are you ready to go back tonight?"

"No, I'm going to stay. I also have a lot of topics to talk about with Xige. You... humph."

Ogiwara Sayu, who was thinking about many things, felt a little sad. She looked at the boy in front of her gloomily. She was dissatisfied with him, but her heart was filled with complicated emotions. After a long time, she could only groan to vent her dissatisfaction with herself.

Seeing the girl seeming to want to say something but hesitant, Xianren didn't know what was wrong with her.

The girl's mood was like the sea and the weather, unpredictable. When she looked at Mito Yuge, the girl gave him a subtle smile.

"......"

He stood up and walked towards the desk.

"Then you and Xige can talk first. I'll go see what to write."

"new book?"

"Ah."

Ogiwara Sayu suddenly felt a strong curiosity in her heart. She wanted to chat with Mito Yuka about some life topics, but she also wanted to see what Kento's new book was.

After a moment of inner conflict, I decided not to read Xianren's new book for the time being. After all, it will be released sooner or later, so it doesn't matter if I read it then. However, I have never found anyone to talk to about the things in my life.

Someone like Mito Yuge, who has somewhat similar experiences to her, would be a good person to negotiate with.

Xianren stared at the computer screen in front of him in silence for a while, saved the document, closed his notebook, walked back to the table, and sat down while watching people chatting about cheap and good-looking clothing stores nearby.

"Has it been written?"

"I'm not AI. How can I write a book so quickly?"

Just as he sat down and before he picked up the teacup, he heard a word from Ogiwara Sayu, which made Xianren speechless for a moment. He paused for a moment before answering.

“What is AI?”

However, the girl obviously didn't get what Xian said. Instead, she showed a confused expression, struggling with the word "AI".

"AI."

"robot?"

"Is that all you can think of?"

"Black O Empire?"

The answer from Ogiwara Sayu became more and more outrageous, which made Xianren reach out his hand and gently touch his forehead with a troubled expression. Mito Yuka also had no understanding of this and showed a confused expression.

Thinking about explaining these things, the wise man who had just sat down couldn't help but want to stand up again, go back to the computer, and continue thinking about his writing.

"'Artificial Intelligence' is abbreviated to 'AI.' I'm not a professional, so I don't have a thorough understanding of the specifics of this term. All I need to know is that AI can accomplish most tasks that humans can handle more efficiently, with a lower error rate than humans who get tired."

“It sounds like it’s pretty impressive.”

"It's really impressive. Well, that's about it. For example, AI for writing can collect a large amount of content from the internet and then write something that seems reasonable but is actually inexplicably empty."

Ogiwara Sayu was about to ask a question in this regard, but after hearing Kento's words and looking at his calm expression, she understood something.

"Wrote something weird?"

"Hmm... If we use the analogy of normal white rice to describe the popular works available on the market, then current 'AI writing' is like over-soaked rice. It's all water and has no nutritional value at all. Even cold porridge is more nutritious than this content."

The vivid metaphor made Ogiwara Sayu suddenly make comparisons and imagine, and she couldn't help but nodded to show her understanding.

"Music, too?"

After hearing what the wise man said, Mito Yuge suddenly became curious and couldn't help but ask about the use of 'AI' in music.

"Yes, there are, but I don't know much about it. You can look up some relevant information. Using 'AI' to try to create music might be a good topic."

"I understand."

Mito Yuge nodded slightly, understanding what the wise man meant. When she had some free time, she planned to learn more about this.

The three of them sat in the house and chatted for a while about the relevant topics. After a while, Mito Yuge felt sleepy. She had been working almost all day long, and now that she had a break, her spirits relaxed. In the warm room, she felt drowsy.

"I am a little sleepy."

"Then take a rest. Do you need to go to work tomorrow?"

"Although it is Christmas Eve, it is not a statutory holiday, so there is no day off."

Mito Yuge shook her head. Some people might think that it was a holiday and there was nothing wrong with celebrating, but Mito Yuge didn’t know much about other people’s business such as taking a holiday. Anyway, she still had to go to the barbecue restaurant to work.

Looking at Ogiwara Sayu, the girl nodded.

"I have to go to work, too."

After understanding the situation, he asked the two to rest early. Xianren sat quietly in the living room, watching them enter the bathroom, wash up simply, and then return to the living room. Xianren walked slowly into the bathroom after they both lay down on the bed.

When he reappeared in the living room, Ogiwara Sayu and Mito Yuka were already lying down. Kento, who was standing in the living room, looked at the two girls hugging each other. There was not much room left on the bed, so he thought about it and got on the bed and squeezed in with the two of them.

"Is it crowded?"

“A little bit…”

Ogiwara Sayu was lying on the inside, Mito Yuka was sandwiched in the middle, and Kento was sleeping on the outside.

The quilt was barely enough, and the three of them were very close to each other. It was Mito Yuka, and there were people in front and behind her. Kento lay on the bed and stretched out his hand to hug Mito Yuka, who was wearing pajamas, but his hand accidentally touched Ogiwara Sayu.

"It's barely enough, so that's it."

I closed my eyes, and the room was lit by a warm yellow desk lamp. With none of the three of them speaking, the atmosphere in the room gradually quieted down...

Nothing happened.

It’s mainly the conditions, which are not enough to support what happened.

When they woke up in the morning, Mito Yuuka prepared breakfast. Ogiwara Sayu woke up later, so it was Kento who woke her up.

"When is work?"

"Close to noon, probably leaving around nine, arriving at the store at ten, opening hours until the afternoon. Will you still be here tonight?"

Mito Yuge answered Xianren's question and looked at Xianren.

"We're still here tonight, but we should be leaving tomorrow. What about you? You're not planning on staying here tonight, are you?"

"why not?!"

After a whole night's sleep, she didn't get a good rest, but facing the question from Kento, Ogiwara Sayu still stubbornly spoke for a moment, to which Kento smiled slightly.

"........"

I suddenly felt uneasy in my heart, but I couldn't tell where the uneasiness came from.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Ogiwara Sayu and Mito Yuka went to work together. Kento, who stayed behind, went out not long after the two of them left. He first went to the home furnishing store and bought some home furnishings there.

It was delivered to the apartment and tidied up. At noon, I went out again and had lunch outside.

"Go to the barbecue restaurant where they work? Forget it, there's no need to trouble them."

Although I know which place it is, there is no need to go there. If I show up in front of them rashly, it will probably cause them trouble.

So, at noon, the wise man was alone in a western restaurant. As soon as he sat down, Feng Xiaochun appeared in front of him and had lunch with him.

"Do I have a GPS?"

"Ah."

Faced with Feng Xiaochun's frank admission, Xianren was speechless.
