Is it okay not to want to work hard?

"Glass, you have to be tougher, otherwise you will be bullied."

"Previous sound?"

Nishimiya Shoko didn't understand.

"Yes, tough, as tough as me."

Quan Chifang patted Juebi's chest.

It is indeed tough, with a kind of beauty that is strong enough to break a nose with one punch.

Higashino Kanade laughed when he saw Izumi Konata patting his chest.

Ci Fang would never have imagined that she, who was mediocre in elementary school, remained mediocre in high school.

It should be a little bigger. A little bit bigger is still big. It can't be a flat airport. If I remember correctly, Ci Fang is slightly bigger than her cousin's friend. That girl's setting seems to be none, while Ci Fang's can probably be considered extremely small.

It's pitiful enough for a girl to be inferior to a boy, but it would be even more pitiful if she was completely flat, so flat that she could pass the inspection without clothes.

"Sister Jifang, you are making things difficult for me. I can't do this."

Nishimiya Yuzuru couldn't help but speak after hearing what Izumi Konakata said. If my sister could be tough, she wouldn't be bullied all the time. Good people are often bullied, and good horses are often ridden. This world will not treat good people gently, but sometimes it will be overly harsh.

"I know. If Nitro becomes tough, it won't be Nitro anymore."

Quan Cifang pulled her face with both hands. She knew it, but she couldn't accept it.

The topic has gone too far.

Originally, she was asking about the sign language for quarreling and making hand seals, but she didn't expect the topic of the conversation to become so serious.

So she naturally turned the topic to Nozomi's appearance, praising Nozomi for becoming a beauty in the future, a big beauty.

Among the people present, the pure ones like Higashino Suzu, Nishimiya Shoko, and Nishimiya Yuzuru did not hear the connotation of Izumi Konata's words, but Higashino Kanade, who was as impure as Izumi Konata, heard it.

What a beauty.

Higashino Kanade glanced at Nishimiya Nozomi twice, thinking about what Nozomi would look like when she grew up in the movie. Well, it was true that Nozomi would be a great beauty in the future. No, a huge~ beauty. I wonder if she would become a huge~ beauty after graduating from high school.

I don’t know how long they played by the river. As it was getting dark, Tono Kanade, Tono Suzu, Izumi Konata and the Nishimiya sisters said goodbye.

It's time to go home. Whether it's the Izumi family or the Nishimiya family, if you don't go home after dark you will be scolded. Izumi Konata is okay, but the mother of Nishimiya Shoko and Nishimiya Yuzuru is a tough woman. It is precisely because of this toughness that their mother is a little strict and unkind.

……

After returning home, Higashino Kanade took a break and prepared to cook.

"Ding dong."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"This time..."

When Dongye Kanade heard the doorbell, his heart skipped a beat and he immediately walked towards the kitchen to open the door.

The door opened, and there was a, no, two familiar faces.

"Hey, Xiaozou, we're here to have a free meal."

"I'm so sorry, I'm too lazy to cook."

Izumi Konata and Izumi Sojiro, the father and daughter came to the Higashino family to buy rice.

Sure enough, it is you.

Dongye Zou opened his mouth and seemed to say something, but stopped himself. After thinking for a while, he decided to give up.

got used to.

These two people come to eat every month, just like the girl’s relatives.

"Are you thinking of something disrespectful?"

Quan Konata's eyes became sharp.

"No."

Higashino Kanade's tone sounded like he was coaxing a child.

Now that Izumi Konata and Izumi Sojiro have arrived, we will have to cook more rice and dishes.

When you have guests at home, just prepare four dishes and a soup. You can eat what you can’t finish tomorrow. If you can’t finish it tomorrow, then... there’s no day after tomorrow!

For his and Xiaoling's sake, the leftovers are only enough for one day. If they are eaten for another day, they will be leftovers, and eating them might upset your stomach. Once your stomach is upset, you have to think carefully before farting, and think about whether it is really a fart.

At the Higashino household, Izumi Konakata and Izumi Sojiro seemed to be at home. One went to the study to play on the computer, while the other turned on the TV, took some snacks from the snack area, and went to the refrigerator to find some drinks.

"Kero."

“Kero kero.”

“Kero kerokero.”

In the kitchen, Higashino Kanade was washing vegetables when he couldn't help but hear a strange cry that suddenly appeared and lasted for a long time.

"Why are you here if you don't want to play on the computer?"

Higashino Kanade looked towards the kitchen door, where a little cutie was sticking his head out and kept making the sounds of an alien frog.

"Game update." Quan Cifang scratched his hair in annoyance, "Your home internet is so slow, the update is super slow."

"Then come and help me."

Tono Kanade bluntly asked Izumi Konata to come and help.

"What are you doing?"

Izumi Konata walked into the kitchen, put her hands on Higashino Kanade's shoulders and looked into the sink. She could have walked to the side to see what vegetables Higashino Kanade was washing, but she had no reason to get behind Higashino Kanade and look over her shoulder.

"Stir the eggs."

Dongye Zou didn't even raise his head.

Ben Fang often comes to his house and often goes into the kitchen to help him, so she knows where the eggs are usually.

"What are you going to do?"

Izumi Konata took out the eggs from the refrigerator and waited for Higashino Kanade to finish washing the vegetables in his hand.

"Tomato scrambled eggs, cola chicken wings, mapo tofu, preserved eggs with spicy peppers, and seaweed soup."

Higashino's family runs a restaurant, and Higashino Kanade has been taught to cook by his parents since he was a child. If he can't be a cartoonist, an original artist, a game producer, or a Vtuber in the future, he can go home and inherit the family property and become a chef who cooks every day with a little taste.

"Xiaozou, even though the food you cook doesn't glow, it's exceptionally delicious."

The hungry Izumi Konata's stomach rumbled when he thought of the food made by Tono Kanade.

“I can cook glowing food.”

"Eh? Really? So awesome?!"

"Really, just add some fluorescent agent."

"Ah, this is not the kind of glowing food I want."

That's great.

Izumi Sojiro listened to the conversation between the young boy and the young girl in the kitchen, and couldn't help but think of his childhood, the childhood of him and his childhood sweetheart, who was also his wife Kanata. Although the way he and Kanata got along was different from the way that Xiaozou and Konata got along, the happiness was the same.

Childhood sweethearts are really great.

Chapter 15: The Silence of the Gods

"Don't run!"

"No."

"Run! Run!"

"Wait for me, don't run so fast."

"Help me, help me!"

Outside the Second Primary School, a boy was chasing five other boys. This was not a game between primary school students, but a chase, with one boy catching up with five.

Chest throw, knight kick, crow flying in an airplane, thunder half-moon slash, and the friendship-free face-breaking punch.

The one who beat people was Tono Kanade, and the one who was beaten was the unlucky kid who bullied Nishimiya Yuzuru and Nishimiya Shoko at school.

Higashino Kanade thought that with his threat of force these naughty kids would not bully Naoko. However, he didn't expect that these kids would only not bully him when he was around, but would become even more aggressive when he was not around, venting their resentment towards him on Yuzuru and Naoko.

Today he was going to teach these guys a lesson, even if he had to get beaten to a bloody pulp, so that if they wanted to bully Nozomi, they would have to think carefully about whether they could bear the consequences of bullying Nozomi.

"Pooh!"

Dongye Kanade spat at the little fat boy on the ground, and rubbed his left cheek where he was punched.

it hurts.

Superpowers are not omnipotent, at least superpowers that have side effects are not omnipotent.

In order not to expose his superpowers, he uses them to assist himself in a fight. The first is to protect his body, the second is to improve his physical condition, and the third is to enhance his dynamic vision. This makes his strength, speed, and ability to withstand blows exceed that of an adult. Let alone fighting five people, even if he says "I want to fight ten", he has no problem at all.

Of course, these five or ten must all be "children". Otherwise, if they only enhance themselves without revealing their superpowers, they would not be able to defeat ten adults, let alone one.

Exposing superpowers is another matter.

In order to avoid looking too fake when fighting five people alone, he did not use his superpowers when fighting the last fat man who was desperate and ready to bite others. Unexpectedly, he almost lost. When ordinary people fight, fat people really have an advantage. They have high attack power and high defense power. As for speed and agility, they are not trained, so the difference is not too big.

What’s the use of having high speed and agility? If you don’t have enough defense, you will be knocked down with one punch.

Higashino Kanade is strong in superpowers, but that doesn't mean he is strong in physical skills. He is like Kageyama Shigeo, not Saitama. Although he is not as physically weak as the early Kageyama Shigeo, he is not as strong as the early Saitama. His physique is that of an elementary school student. He is strong in superpowers, not fighting skills.

Fortunately, he didn't succeed in pretending to be awesome, and didn't get screwed. It's just that his way of winning was not very glorious, and he used a dirty trick, but he still won, right? The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, and the loser has no right to speak.

"Why did you end up here?"

Dongye Kanade kicked the fat boy who was trying to get up. Only then did he realize that he had chased the fat boy to the park. This park was where he and Xiaoling often played. He remembered that they used to fight here and beat up those unlucky kids who bullied Xiaoling. He didn't expect that he would chase someone here. Was he going to bury this guy here?

Looking at the piles of sand in the park, criminal thoughts popped into his head.

Dongye Kanade thought about this idea, but it was impossible to really put it into practice. However, he was unwilling to let the little fat boy go. Last time, the little fat boy was severely beaten by him. He also warned him before letting him go, but he didn't expect that not only did he not behave himself, but his old illness relapsed and he continued to bully Glass.

Shame on you, so shameless. Since you are so shameless, then I will help you.

Dongye Kanade looked at the little fat boy and came up with an idea.

Not long after, at the gate of the Second Primary School, a little fat boy wearing the Emperor's New Clothes ran towards home crying.

"You are going too far."

Quan Chifang covered his face with his hands, and with his eyes showing through his fingers, he boldly looked at the little fat man who was running away.

"No, I didn't break his arms and legs. I just threw him into a metal bucket and filled it with cement. That was very gentle, okay?"

Higashino Zou was speaking from the heart. If it weren't for the rule of law, he really wanted to throw this little fat boy into the sea to feed the fish.

"Do you have any misunderstanding about gentleness?"

The person she was complaining about was not Izumi Konata, but Nishimiya Yuzuru, but she complained very quietly so no one heard it.

"Hehehe, Xiaozou, you're not professional enough. After pouring cement, you have to throw it into Tokyo Bay and sink it to the bottom for it to be considered a complete process. How can you just pour cement without sinking it into Tokyo Bay?"

Quan Chifang put his hands on his hips and looked very proud.

"Sister Kotokata, you've watched too much TV." Higashino Ling couldn't stand it anymore. She grabbed Kotokata's arm and said, "Don't teach your brother such bad things. Don't be a bad kid."

"Xiao Ling, your brother doesn't need me to teach him this kind of thing. He can learn it on his own. He likes to read detective novels, so you have to be careful not to make Xiao Zou angry, otherwise..."

Quan Cifang talked nonsense in a serious manner.

"Can you please stop scaring Xiaoling? Are you dissatisfied with detective novels? Why do I commit crimes when I get angry after reading detective novels? Then, when you play beautiful girl games, don't you always want sex?"

Higashino Kanade tapped Izumi Konakata's head with a knife-like hand.

"I'm just kidding."

Quan Konata stuck out his tongue in a cute way.

Cute, I want to...pull it. This tongue must be fun to pull.

"Tong Yue, I am in love with you, but I am so ignorant of food."

Nishimiya Naoko looked at Tono Kanade's face and said with concern.
