Faced with the blackened heroine, they actually stopped time

Oreki Sakura turned her head, as if attracted by the prosperous scenery outside the Sakura City, and spoke as she looked.

"I don't believe you...By the way, does she know I'm here?"

“It’s hard not to know.”

This is indeed the case.

After all, it had only been less than two hours since I asked for leave, and Sakuraba Mitsuki actually sent me a message asking... No, it should be asked where I had been.

I can only tell the truth.

I had mentioned it to Sakuraba Mizuki before, so it seemed legitimate and even justified when I said it.

It was just a little surprising that the other party didn't make things difficult for him, nor did he ask to go with him to pick up Oreki Sakura. He just said a simple sentence.

【understood. 】

This was not like Sakuraba Mitsuki's style, and Oreki Gen was even a little uneasy. Was that girl secretly planning something terrible? For example, to capture the two siblings in one fell swoop?

Oreki Sakura tutted in dissatisfaction.

"Why tell her everything?"

"It's not a big deal, just know it once you know it."

“It will be troublesome...”

"Where's the trouble?"

Oreki Gen looked over curiously and saw the other party glaring at him, then sighing.

"Forget it, you're just an idiot and don't understand anything."

"Is it your turn to call me stupid?"

"stupid stupid stupid!"

"..." She is really something.

When he arrived near his home, Oreki Gen didn't go buy groceries the first time because he had other plans.

The first step is to bring the other person's luggage to your home.

The first thing Oreki Sakura did when she came in was to look around.

"You knew I was coming, so you cleaned it so well?"

Oreki Gen put the other person's suitcase aside and said unhappily.

"You're overthinking it. It's like this every day where I live."

Oreki Sakura sneered.

"Who would believe me if I told you that? Which boy's place isn't a mess when he lives alone?"

"You speak as if you understand it very well."

Oreki Sakura's eyes widened.

“That’s what they say on the Internet!”

"I care about you, and you put me online?"

But it's normal. Young people nowadays rarely go out and rely on the Internet to get information from the outside world.

It seems that we can foresee how cyberpunk human life will be in the future.

"I'm so tired~"

Oreki Sakura sat directly on the cheap sofa in Oreki Tsune's apartment. There was no other way. Her family was not like Sakuraba Mizuki's. It was already quite good to have a sofa in the apartment. Why would she need a bicycle?

Oreki Gen brought the other person a bottle of water.

"Did the school really approve your living here with me?"

Oreki Gen was still somewhat skeptical. This girl's ability to act first and report later was no joke. It would be troublesome if any coach or school authority found him.

Oreki Sakura took the water and nodded.

"Of course, I'm looking down on anyone. As the ace of the swimming club, I don't have any privileges at all... Help me open it~~"

The boy said unhappily, "I also need Zhe Muxian's help to open the bottle cap."

"You, the ace of the swimming club, can't turn on the water? Turn it on yourself."

"How can this be possible? A boy should help a girl open the bottle cap. How can you have such a relationship?"

"I'm not in love with you, so stop talking nonsense."

Oreki Gen showed the aura of a brother, but he didn't seem to notice that the girl holding the water blushed and secretly winked at her handsome brother.

The boy had made his bed in advance, and even bought new sheets and quilts.

　"You can sleep in my room for the next few days."

"how about you?"

Oreki Sakura asked, blinking.

"I can sleep on the sofa or on the floor, but you can't ask me to sleep under the bridge."

Oreki Gen answered casually.

Oreki Sakura thought about it.

"I don't want to sleep in a boy's bed, why don't you sleep on it and I'll sleep on the floor."

In fact, sleeping on the floor is a very normal thing in the Land of Sakura, and it does not have any particular discriminatory meaning.

However, Oreki Gen could see at a glance why his sister said that.

She didn't dislike herself to this extent, and what's more, they were all newly replaced, so there wouldn't be any unbearable smell.

"Okay, stop pretending in front of your brother. If your parents knew that I asked you to sleep on the floor in Sakura City, they would break your legs when you get home. Anyway, if you don't want to sleep on the bed, just go back and sleep where your swimming club arranged for you."　

"Then sleep in the bed."

Oreki Sakura looked helpless, but when she looked at the bed, her eyes were wide open.

This is the bed my brother sleeps on every day...

It must all smell like him...

Oreki Gen was not aware of these psychological activities. He just helped to pack up the other party's things and took out the newly bought toiletries for the other party to use.

After doing all this, it seemed to be getting dark.

Just at this time.

"Gulu..."

Some strange sound came out.

Oreki Gen turned his head and glanced at the girl whose cheeks suddenly turned red.

"hungry?"

Oreki Sakura opened her watery eyes wide, and her cheeks were so red that it seemed like blood could drip out.

"That sound wasn't mine..."

Oreki Gen said with some amusement.

"I didn't say that. I asked if you were hungry."

"A little bit~~~Shall we have takeout?"

The girl naturally thought that for a high school boy like Oreki Gen who lived alone, the only way to eat was fast food or takeout.

She had prepared herself mentally in advance.

Oreki Gen smiled.

"How can I allow you to eat takeout in Sakura? That's so presumptuous. Is there anything you want to pack? Get ready to go out."

"Hey, where are you taking me to eat? Please let me know in advance. I don't have the money to pay the bill."

As clever as a fox.

Oreki Gen shook his head.

"It's pretty much the same actually. Maybe even tastier than 99% of the places in Sakura."

This may still be an understatement.

"Really? Let's go!"

Oreki Sakura was obviously also a foodie, but when Oreki Gen took her to a nearby supermarket to start buying food, she seemed to understand something.

"Why buy food? Does Sakura have to bring its own ingredients to the restaurant?"

Oreki Xian smiled and said, "Can't you see that you want to cook?"

"Cooking? I don't know how!"

"Boom!"

Sorry, I'm having an idiotic attack.

The boy withdrew his hand.

"I think you are pretty stupid. Who asked you to do it? I don't even know how good you are at cooking."

"You do it? No way... You can't even cook!"

"That was in the past, and you haven't tasted the food I cook now."

"Hey...you're not planning to poison me to death in Sakura City and take all the family property for yourself, are you?"

"First of all, poisoning someone to death is a legal responsibility. Secondly, how can our family have any property? Our last name is Oreki, not Sakuraba."

"Can you please not mention her name?"

The girl pouted in dissatisfaction, obviously she had put the emphasis in the wrong place again.

I bought a lot of ingredients, most of which were Sakura Oreki's favorites, and some of them belonged to another girl.

When Oreki Gen and Oreki Sakura arrived at the door of an unfamiliar apartment.

Oreki Sakura asked curiously.

"Why are you here when you're not going home to do it?"

Oreki Gen replied calmly.

"A classmate, let's eat together. We can eat more."

"Hey...why do we need to eat with a stranger?"

Oreki Sakura was a little unhappy.

This should be the dining time that I am dining alone with this boy... Even if the food doesn't taste good, I will force myself to eat it. It will be hard to swallow if there is one more person.

She's not still a girl, is she?

Oreki Gen said with a smile.

"Don't you think it's a good deal to have more food with one more person?"

"I have a small appetite!"

"Ding dong~~"

Oreki Ken rang the doorbell.

A sound slowly came from inside, approaching the door. It seemed that the person checked the time through the peephole before opening the door.

The person who appeared was someone who had already changed out of his school uniform.

The girl was wearing a thick grey sweater, with her long hair somewhat disheveled, and a pair of black-framed glasses that made her look old-fashioned.

But even such unkempt attire cannot conceal this girl's natural temperament and her almost invincible charm among her peers.

The moment Oreki Sakura saw it, she was stunned.

I originally thought that the most beautiful girl around Oreki Gen was Sakuraba Mizuki, and even if there were other girls, they would not be more beautiful than her.

But I didn't expect that even with such casual dressing, this girl would still be far beyond the reach of ordinary girls.
