Faced with the blackened heroine, they actually stopped time

If you can transform so much, why don’t you join the Super Transformation?

Of course, he couldn't say that, so Oreki Gen could only put on a smile.

"You are asked to come and tell me this in person. Let's go and have dinner."

Sakuraba Mitsuki looked at two people with smiling faces walking towards him.

She frowned.

When Sakuraba Izumi walked past her, she didn't show any reaction.

Until Oreki Gen passed by her, she suddenly stretched out her hand without saying a word and directly grasped the boy's hand.

Oreki Gen was stunned, not understanding what the other party meant by this sudden action.

What? Arrested on the spot? Not in handcuffs?

But Sakuraba Mitsuki just held the boy's hand tightly and led him out of the room.

Without waiting for Oreki Gen to ask the question in confusion.

This cold but beautiful girl spoke softly.

"You are sweating so much, are you scared?"

...I see.

She probably heard it all.

He just didn't choose to interrupt. Was he curious about what he and her mother would say, or did he say it at that time just to alleviate any danger he might put himself in?

unknown.

Oreki Gen felt rationally that it was impossible for the other party to be so nice to him.

But people are all sentimental, what if I really changed her? Even if it was just a little bit by luck?

Since there is no proof, just treat it as a small hope.

He smiled, looking somewhat tired.

Although there was nothing wrong with his body, the pressure of competing against a woman like Sakuraba Izumi was too great, as if it had drained all his energy.

It's just like the Cthulhu novels, where one feels mentally polluted.

The result is either going crazy or having a blank brain.

Oreki Gen knew that he could no longer hide the truth from the other party, so he could only say it with a smile.

"It's okay, sorry to have made you worry."

This time, Sakuraba Mitsuki did not refute the other party or say anything about Oreki Gen's self-sentiment. Instead, he looked at his mother's back not far away and said.

"Don't underestimate her. You have to know that in the days when the power of the Sakuraba family was transferred to her, many people were sent to prison, and many people became beggars overnight. Even now, many people dare not even return to the country. If you play with fire in front of me, you may just die. But if you play with fire in front of her, you and everyone around you will have a hard time."

When Sakuraba Kentsuki finished saying this, before Oreki Gen's reply was received, Sakuraba Izumi in front of him turned around with a smile, her hands even held in front of her in a very elegant manner, like a woman with an ancient charm.

She looked at the two of them with a smile.

"Come on, what are you talking about? You're not even interested in eating."

"..."

Terrible.

I really was...crazy just now.

During the meal, Sakuraba Izumi did not mention anything about the previous confrontation with Oreki Gen, nor did she tell anyone about some recent clues she had learned about Oreki Gen.

Just a normal meal.

It seemed that only simple yet heartwarming family conversations remained at the dinner table.

Is it warm?

The atmosphere does seem to be like this, a mature woman doting on her juniors.

A beautiful girl who eats silently without saying a word and doesn't care about these things.

And there is the little girl who seems to be full of energy and curiosity at all times.

and a teenager who would answer any question with a smile and appear to be decent and polite.

Who would have thought that, apart from Yui Shinkai who is still in junior high school, there is no other innocent good person here?

Oreki Gen also thought it was absurd, but the point was that the atmosphere just became like this naturally, how should I put it...

It was like a group of actors with great acting skills who directly immersed themselves in roles that did not belong to them, and the audience watched and applauded.

Only the actors in the game know that everything is not as beautiful as it seems.

Finally finished the meal.

Sakuraba Izumi stood up and asked the servants to clean up the mess while speaking to the two of them with a smile.

"I heard that Oreki-kun did well in the exam this time."

Oreki Gen nodded and said with a smile.

"It's OK, but I didn't get first place in the grade."

There's nothing we can do about it. The thing that Asagiri Ryou is most proud of is probably her grades. Oreki Gen is still very emotionally intelligent, and we can't take away her only pride.

Of course, it is also quite difficult to take it away.

Sakuraba Izumi nodded.

"That's right. Although grades don't represent everything, good grades are one of the many criteria for talent. I'm very satisfied. Alas, I haven't given you anything since I adopted you as my godson, so this is it. I bought one just because I thought it looked good, and there aren't many men in your family, so it's the perfect gift for you."

As she spoke, Sakuraba Izumi took out an unwrapped watch from the small bag next to her.

No idea when it was prepared, but you can tell it's exquisite. The carving on the dial is quite beautiful. Although there are no exaggerated diamond embellishments, the glass on the cover doesn't look like ordinary glass. Oreki Xian can't tell what material it is made of, but it is obviously different from the one his old father often wears.

"Ah... this is too expensive. I can't accept such an expensive gift. I have never given anything to my godmother. I really can't accept it."

Sakuraba Izumi smiled slightly.

"Keep it. It's a gift from an elder to a younger person, so there's no reason for the younger person to return the favor. I'll be unhappy if you don't take it."

Could you please stop pretending to be cute?

Can’t you just collect it?

Oreki Xian took the watch, which was not old-fashioned or exaggerated, but had excellent texture.

It's a pity that Sakuraba Spring Water is wasted.

"Alas, I have opened the packaging. If you want to pack it, I will ask someone to help me turn it over..."

"Ah, that's not necessary. I won't be able to sell it. It doesn't need to be packaged. It's already very precious."

"What a good kid. Then you go and accompany Jianyue. I'm going to take a rest."

Sakuraba Izumi left the living room with a smile, and Shinkai Yui also had to go back to her room to do homework, but it was hard to say whether it was homework.

Oreki Gen naturally followed Sakuraba Mizuki to each other's room to be alone with her.

He no longer felt embarrassed. After all, after what happened just now, nothing could stand in front of Oreki Gen.

He held the watch in his hand, sitting on the edge of Sakuraba Mitsuki's bed, lost in thought.

Sakuraba Mitsuki took off her hairband.

Her long hair fell down like a waterfall, and the fragrance naturally diffused.

"Do you like the watch my mother gave you so much?"

Oreki Gen looked at the girl.

"How much does this cost?"

"It's not expensive, just a car."

"...You're really a bitch."

"Ok?"

"No... I was wondering if there was a chance that this wasn't a watch."

"What is that, are you scared by her?"

"...I don't think it's that simple. Maybe there's some kind of locator hidden inside. If I put it on, as long as she gets upset, it will activate the mechanism and inject some deadly poison into my veins..."

Sakuraba Jianyue couldn't help but laugh.

"I think you've watched too many science fiction movies. As far as I know, this kind of technology can't be used on this watch, and there's no need for it."

"Oh, that's good..."

"But the locator you mentioned is possible."

"... then it must have happened."

Oreki Xian didn't take any chances and gave himself such an expensive watch, and there was not even any packaging, he opened it specially, so what good thing could it be?

Obviously not, and I may have to bring it with me in front of her often, otherwise it would be disrespectful to her.

A complete conspiracy.

Don't even try to pretend.

There really is hers.

Sakuraba Jianyue leaned against the head of the bed, looking very casual. She even took off her socks, revealing her white, slender legs and delicate toes.

She looked at Oreki Gen.

"How long do you plan to keep looking at this watch? Or take it home and keep it as a decoration?"

Oreki Gen put down his watch with a wry smile. He then turned around and looked at the young lady who had a cold expression but an extremely seductive posture.

"No, I just can't calm down. I feel like I've done something terrible."

Sakuraba Jianyue slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"You really did something remarkable to dare to say that in front of her."

Oreki Gen thought the other party was mocking him.

He shook his head.

"I must be crazy."

But the next moment, Sakuraba Mitsuki grabbed the boy's hand and pulled him down on the bed.

Oreki Gen was still a little dazed, not knowing what was going on.

What's wrong?

Is this revenge for the mother?

The next moment, Sakuraba Kentsuki turned over with her long legs and rode on the boy's waist.

She looked down at him, her long, somewhat messy hair like a dense forest, almost covering the light.
