I won't be a loser.

"No."

"Among the other three girls you were rumored to be dating, are any of them dating you?"

"No."

"Why didn't you date them?"

"I already have someone I like."

A sudden answer made Futaba Rio's breathing stop abruptly. She held her breath and stared at the boy in front of her. Seeing that his eyes were still empty and indifferent, Futaba Rio's cheeks suddenly became rosy.

She pursed her lips, and her calm heart was broken by the other person's words, causing ripples and making it difficult to calm down.

If it was really as she thought, and the person in front of her was not hypnotized, then did his answer at this moment count as a confession to her?

Unable to help but bite her lips, Futaba Rio looked at the wise man in front of her. Her breathing gradually became slower. She opened her mouth and asked the question that concerned her most at the moment.

"The person you like is——"

Ding-dong-ding-dong-

The bell for class rang, and the boy in front of him suddenly became clear-eyed. He looked at the girl in front of him, raised his head and listened to the ringing bell again.

"Is class about to start?"

"......"

Futaba Rio didn't know whether she should complain about the ringing of the phone or look at the boy in front of her and praise his acting skills. She was silent for a moment, pretending that what had just happened had never happened.

"Class begins."

"Just now... Never mind, I'll go back to the classroom for class."

Looking at the wise man in front of her who seemed to be hesitant to speak, Futaba Rio couldn't tell what he was thinking and nodded gloomily.

She felt a little unhappy because she didn't get an answer to the question she wanted to ask.

After picking up his lunch box, Kento said goodbye to Futaba Rio, left the lab, and headed towards the classroom, leaving Futaba Rio alone in the lab again...

"Isn't the answer just now a little ambiguous?"

On the way back to the classroom, Xianren thought for a moment.

He couldn't be said to be truly hypnotized just now. At the beginning, he was indeed in a state similar to half asleep and half awake. His consciousness was a little fuzzy, and he was not very clear about what had happened. But when the other party asked about his age, he was suddenly awakened.

It wasn't really a startling awakening. It was probably like a program on a computer that had a logical error while running, and suddenly reported an error, waking him up.

From then on, he simply pretended to be hypnotized and answered the other person's questions silently.

He raised his left hand and looked at his index finger that was bitten by Futaba Rio. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled softly. Then he walked towards the classroom, feeling that things suddenly became interesting.

"There are four days of holiday in May. Why don't you come to Tokyo?"

He raised his index finger and signaled to the Saionji Sekai below to keep quiet. Xianren, who was talking to his sister, closed his eyes and spoke to her quietly.

"I think it's okay to go to Tokyo for four days, but Mom is worried... I'm already a middle school student! I'm not a kid anymore!"

"Even if you become, hiss—well, a high school student, or even a college student, in the eyes of your parents, you're still just a child."

"Hmm? What happened to you just now? You felt a little weird?"

"No, nothing. I just saw a cat licking its paws. It looked cute."

"Aren't there cats everywhere in the countryside? You're so surprised to see a cat in Tokyo. It seems you've completely adapted to city life."

Looking down at the smirking Sekai Saionji, Xianto sighed.

"So you won't be coming to Tokyo in May?"

"Hehe, I don't know either~"

"Are you planning to come to Tokyo secretly by yourself?"

"No way, I'm not that kind of person. Humph, nothing happened, so let's leave it like this. Yotsuba is calling me, bye!"

The phone was hung up immediately, and Xianren sighed helplessly.

"Gu, she looks like a very cute little sister."

Saionji Sekai gradually stood up, wiped her hands with a tissue, and walked towards the bathroom.

Xianren slowly leaned back on the bed, letting the phone in his hand slide to the side of his pillow. He looked at the ceiling above his head, his mind blank, thinking about the grandeur and vastness of the universe, the difference between Tokyo and Itomori, and the contradiction between prosperity and simplicity.

Judging from Mitsuha's speech and answer just now, it seems that the other party is most likely planning to secretly go to Tokyo alone during the May holiday. It is not ruled out that she will pull Yotsuha together and ask her mother to lead them to Tokyo.

"Should we contact our mother and tell her about Mitsuha?"

Xianren was worried that something might happen to Mitsuha if she went out alone. He thought silently for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and decided to send a message to his mother, asking her to pay attention to Mitsuha and not let anything happen to her. As for the trip to Tokyo, he would go to the station to pick her up directly when the time comes.

The sound of dripping water was heard in the bathroom, and soon Saionji Sekai walked out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel, and slowly walked to the living room, wiping her wet long hair.

Not only Setsuna, but even Saionji Sekai had left some of her clothes with Kento during this period, so that she could wear them directly when needed. As for her own clothes, she left them to Kento to deal with.

Now Xianren not only washes his own clothes, but also occasionally washes Saionji Sekai's clothes.

Basically, everything is handled by the washing machine. It is not a particularly troublesome thing, and Xianren does not take it too seriously.

"Will my sister come over in May?"

"Well, there's a good chance he'll come over and stay with me for a while. By then, I probably won't have much time for you and Setsuna."

There is still some time before May, and Saionji Sekai has no specific schedule for her vacation. She will probably just rest at home or help out in her mother's shop. She will probably spend the rest of her free time with Setsuna and the others.

It's not that I haven't thought about asking Xianren to go shopping with me during the May holiday, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"It's fine with me. I'll just live with Setsuna when the time comes. However, May is still a while away. Are you free this Saturday?"

"Saturday, yes."

"Did you make a date with Setsuna this weekend?"

Judging from the answer from Xianren and his hesitant expression, Saionji Sekai could guess that he didn't have much time on the weekend, and she didn't need to think about who could occupy Xianren's weekend time.

Nodding, Xianren did not hide the matter. In his opinion, there was no need to hide the relationship between Setsuna and the world.

If he is not at home, then the world will definitely go to find Setsuna, and Setsuna will not be at home by then, so even if he wants to hide it, he will definitely not be able to hide it.

"Setsuna, Mai, and I are going out together to explore the city. We've been in Tokyo for so long, but we've only been to Shinjuku and Shibuya. We haven't really seen the rest of the city, so we're planning to explore more during the weekend."

"Viewing?"

"If Sanye really comes over during the May holiday, it will be a good preparation. I don't have to worry about where to take her."

"Tour bus?"

"..."

Although there are services like sightseeing buses that allow you to visit some of the attractions in Tokyo in one day, such a trip is really meaningless. You basically spend all your time on the bus, and the attractions you go to after getting off the bus are all crowded with people, and there are even many vendors there.

In that way, you will basically have no freedom in your journey just following the crowd. The only advantage is probably that there is a car to pick you up. It is better to make your own itinerary in advance and then visit the places one by one by yourself.

"Put on your clothes first. If Setsuna comes later and sees you like this."

"Ah."

He walked to the wardrobe and opened it. Originally, there were only two or three pieces of clothes belonging to Xianren, but now the number of clothes in the wardrobe was almost doubled. Just as Xiyuanji Sekai was about to reach out to take her own clothes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Setsuna's clothes on the other side.

After a brief hesitation, she stretched out her white arm, picked up Setsuna's clothes, and took them in her own hands. Looking at the clothes, which were one size smaller than her usual clothes, she turned around and glanced behind her. Xianren was typing something on his phone with his head down...

"During the May holiday, if Mitsuha and Yotsuha want to come to Tokyo, I can pick them up at the station so they don't have to go out on their own."

After asking about the recent situation at home and briefly reporting on his life in Tokyo, Xianren sent the email, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, sat on his bed, and closed his eyes.

"A wise man."

Saionji Sekai's voice rang out, and Xianren, who had closed his eyes, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Saionji Sekai who was standing in front of the wardrobe and had already put on her clothes.

At first glance, he didn't seem to pay much attention, just seeing that the other party had put on clothes, but in a flash, he realized the problem, and withdrew his gaze and fell on Saionji Sekai again like lightning.

"Why are you wearing Setsuna's clothes?"

"Try it. Besides, isn't it more exciting this way?"

A faint blush appeared on Saionji Sekai's face. Setsuna's clothes were a little small and were very tight on her body. Even she couldn't help feeling a little ashamed at the moment, but in order to make Xianren happy, she still held back.

Xianren opened his mouth and looked at the Saionji world in front of him and was silent for a moment.

"You hso......"

Before Saionji Sekai could reply, the sound of a door opening suddenly rang out.

The helpless smile on Xianren's face had not yet faded when he saw the girl appear at the door. She walked quietly into the house. Then he saw the blushing expression on Saionji Sekai's face and the familiar clothes on her body, and looked at Xianren in front of him again.

The moment he came to call Xianren to his home for dinner, his eyes silently wandered back and forth between the two of them. The air pressure in the entire room suddenly dropped to the lowest point, leaving only the sound of quiet breathing.

Sometimes I like to watch pure love, and sometimes I think bullfighting is more exciting. Men are really fickle.

Cherry Blossom Season: 138. I didn't mean to hear it, but you were so loud

"Need an explanation? I can explain."

In the quiet room, looking at Qingpu Setsuna who suddenly entered the house, the moment Xianren saw the girl, he thought that it was time to go to Qingpu's house for dinner as usual, and it was natural that Setsuna would appear in front of him.

There was a helpless expression on her face. She didn't expect that Setsuna would appear in front of her at such a coincidental time. She looked at Saionji Sekai beside her. The girl's face was originally shy, with a little expectation, but now it has become gloomy. She looked at Setsuna who appeared in the room awkwardly, like a child who had done something wrong.

As for Setsuna, her gaze paused on Xianren, and then she looked at Saionji Sekai who was standing beside her. She was silent for a moment when she saw Saionji Sekai lowering his head to avoid her sight.

My eyes dropped slightly, looking at the tight button...

It was not unusual for Sekai Saionji to wear her clothes. She had also worn Sekai Saionji's pajamas when she stayed overnight at Sekai Saionji's house.

But now, she was wearing her clothes in front of Xianren without telling him, so the nature of the clothes was completely different from her wearing Xiyuanji Sekai's pajamas, and it was still like this...

His eyes were fixed on the tight clothes and the buttons that seemed to be trembling and might pop off at any moment. After the last time when Saionji Sekai ran away without telling him, Setsuna once again felt the anger of being betrayed.

The wise man's voice sounded, and Setsuna looked at him. After a moment's silence, he nodded slightly.

She wanted to hear how the wise man would explain it.

"Uh... well, it's just that Saionji Sekai is wearing the wrong clothes, huh."

The concise answer made Saionji Sekai, who had lowered her head, raise her head and look at Xianren with a subtle look. She felt that such an explanation would be worse than no explanation at all.

His eyes slowly turned to Setsuna, and noticing the girl's calm expression, Saionji Sekai couldn't help but bite her lip.

"Setsuna, um...I'm...sorry."

A lot of words came to his lips, but in the end, all that was left was an apology. Being seen like this by Setsuna, no matter how many reasons Saionji Sekai had, he didn't think the girl in front of him could accept it. After a lot of entanglement, the only thing left was an apology.

His eyes were a little cold as he glanced at Saionji Sekai, then looked at the wise man in front of him. Without saying anything, he turned and walked towards the door.

The wise man standing in the house watched Setsuna who was about to leave, then glanced at Sekai Saionji in the house, and he sighed.

"Put on your clothes first. I have to go and comfort her."

"Ah."

Seeing Setsuna had already left his room at the door, Xianren hurriedly left his apartment and chased after Setsuna. As for Saionji Sekai, she stood quietly in the room, watching Xianren leave. She silently lowered her head to look at her tight clothes and began to change into her own clothes...

When he caught up with the girl who was leaving, Xianren looked at the girl beside him on the road and didn't know how to comfort her for a moment. He was not good at comforting girls.

He just walked quietly beside Setsuna all the way, and the two of them walked from the door of Xianren's apartment to the door of Qingpu's house before stopping.

"Not accompanying the world?"

"Angry?"

"No."

Seeing her calm face, she did not look angry, but she was different from other girls. Even if she was angry, she would not show her emotions on her face. Xianren was helpless. He first saw the door open, and then they entered the house together, ready to comfort each other again.

Saionji Sekai sat in Kento's apartment, watching Kento and Setsuna enter the Kiyoura family together. She then sat in her room, quietly lying on her side on Kento's bed, waiting for his return.

When the waning moon rose to mid-sky, Xian returned to his apartment.

The sound of a door opening rang out in the quiet house. Saionji Sekai was lying on the sage's bed, resting with her eyes closed, and she did not wake up because of the slight noise.

When Xianren entered the room and put on his shoes, he found the shoes belonging to Saionji Sekai at the door.
