Who says meal replacements can’t be eaten as meals?

"Yeah, it's a little embarrassing." Ms. Sakuya raised her hand to her chin, and thought about Xiao Mu's strength that made him unable to even lift a kettle. She didn't care that the school uniform that symbolized elegance was covered with dust again, and returned the same way and landed next to Wakaba Mu.

"?" Ruo Yemu didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly.

Ms. Sakuya dusted off her hands and explained, "Because the window is a little small, I can't get through. Xiao Mu is so slim, it should be no problem."

"But..." Miss Mu was a little embarrassed. Her physical fitness was not that good. She might not be able to climb to the top as flexibly as Su Shi.

"Well...how about this, I'll hold you up from below, and be careful and take your time?"

Wakaba Muhe looked into the eager gray-blue eyes for a moment, and nodded slightly with an inexplicable feeling.

If Sakuya wants that.

Chapter 145: Green Hair Holding Heart

Ruoye Mutsu stepped on the edge of the flower bed in his brown round-toed leather shoes, with a serious expression and a slight pursed mouth. His little face also maintained the tense state taught in the etiquette class.

She tried to open her eyes wide, focusing on the flower bed and the lockers in front of her where she could put her feet. She didn't think about the soft touch coming from her back, and she also tried her best to ignore the warm hands that were passing through her armpits like someone holding a kitten.

"Hold on here, and then step on the protruding edge of the bracket. Even if you fall, I'll be there to catch you, so don't worry." Ichinose Sakuya kindly comforted Xiao Mu, who was not good at sports. After confirming that the girl had maintained her posture, he left her hand from her armpit and stroked her slender waist, waiting for the next effort.

Wakaba Mu's hand holding the bracket suddenly loosened, her cheeks flushed, and she imagined what a gentle scene it would be if she fell into the arms of Sakuya, who was exactly the same as Suyo...

“Be careful.” Miss Sakuya patted her twice through her school uniform and then exerted a little force to support the not-so-heavy girl as she climbed up.

"...Yeah." Before he had time to regret the loss of intimate contact, he felt a reassuring force on his waist, and his shaking body regained its balance. Ruo Yemu also took another step upward with the force, and his little head had reached the tail of the sunlight. The light green top of his head was coated with golden yellow, just like the small goose yellow flowers blooming on the top of a cucumber.

Looking at the girl's skirt and the exposed white calves, Sakuya used the chains of her will to forcibly suppress her bad thoughts of reaching out and pinching them. She turned her head away silently, condemned herself in her heart, and silently repeated three times, "Xiao Mu is a friend, and I am not interested in girls' bodies..." before finally suppressing the excessive thoughts.

"Su Shi...?" The remaining blush on her cheeks had not yet faded away, and was covered by a new sense of shame again. Ruo Yemu turned around with some embarrassment and looked at Miss Sakuya who had suddenly fallen silent. Perhaps it was because he had taken a small step forward, the warm hands that had originally supported his waist and abdomen naturally moved to a slightly private part.

"It's almost there, just wait for me for a moment after you step on the top of the cabinet." After re-installing her mental defenses and entering straight-woman mode with no distractions, Ms. Sakuya continued to push on the soft part of her hand without any concern and spoke encouragingly.

"..." Ruoye Mu's golden pupils trembled noticeably, and he opened his mouth slightly to think for a moment before he suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with his thinking. Sakuya was trying very hard to solve the problem, so how could he worry about such an insignificant matter?

We are all girls anyway...

Leaning forward with his knees slightly bent, Ruo Yemu tried to step on the last support point, but due to his hardware conditions, he was still a little short of it.

"...Su Shi." Ruo Yemu lowered his head helplessly. Without any support, the feeling of being stuck in mid-air suddenly was not very good.

"Xiao Mu, stretch out your feet." Miss Sakuya blinked, gave an encouraging look, and put her hands together, palms facing up, raising them next to her brown leather shoes.

"It will be very painful." Ruo Yemu shook her head gently, but was unwilling to stop. She still felt that she could try other methods.

"Okay." Miss Sakuya finally found a reason. She grasped Mu's flexible calf with one hand, moved it gently, and then folded her hands together again, and lifted it up with all her strength.

"Isn't it very easy to get up there?" Sakuya smiled faintly and looked at the still somewhat confused Wakaba Mutsu, then clapped his hands and put his hands on his hips in satisfaction.

"...Yeah." Sakuya smiled inexplicably and for no reason, but Wakaba Mu also raised the corners of his mouth slightly. His clothes were dirty, his hair was stained with dust, and he did something inappropriate. When he returned home, he would definitely be lectured by his mother, but he didn't worry at all...

It seemed as if nothing could stump Sakuya, and she could smile happily and at ease just by being together.

It's... incredible.

"Hey~" While Mu was thinking, Miss Sakuya familiarly repeated the action from last time, with the same disheveled look of hair and clothes all messed up. They squatted close to each other, and her little hand subconsciously wanted to smooth down Mu's frizzy hair, but she felt her hands were dirty, and shyly withdrew her hand in mid-air.

"..." Ruo Ye Mu thought very quickly at this moment, or maybe she didn't think at all. She used her smaller palms to cover Sakuya's softness. Maybe it was because her body temperature was slightly lower, she always felt that Sakuya's palms were much warmer than hers.

"Xiao Mu?" Miss Sakuya tilted her head, a little confused, and looked over, and couldn't take her eyes away.

The afternoon summer sun sets just right, and you can clearly see the fine dust floating in the air and the girl's hair.

The doll girl lowered her head slightly, her light green hair quietly blooming like a bud, and then falling from behind her ears to her plain white neck. The beautiful profile of her face was outlined delicately by the sunlight, her expression was focused, but the corners of her mouth were filled with a perfect smile. As if isolated from the world, he gently held the girl's palms with both hands, his golden eyes were still lowered, but reflected the silent tenderness that could not be hidden.

It's like a curtain of water falling on the cucumber vines, and the water droplets carry the unique scent of summer, full of youthful beauty, like a picturesque scene and a poetic scene.

Ichinose Sakuya admitted that she was a little moved at this moment.

Miss Sakuya's eyes were dazed for a while before she found a suitable explanation - Wakaba Mu was good-looking and her aesthetic was very close to her own. She was simply appreciating the girl's delicate charm, which was the instinctive pursuit of beauty by humans.

"It's very high outside...Su Shi, can you hold my hand and help me?" Ruo Ye Mu himself was offline for a long time, and he said a rather long sentence with evasive eyes.

"Oh...well, I'll just wait here for Xiaomu to come back." Ms. Sakuya adjusted herself into a position that was more convenient for bearing the force, but she never let go of her right hand that was being held.

"Yeah." Mu Ye held it with one hand and walked down along the window little by little.

Wakaba Mu landed smoothly, jumping slightly, taking the force, and then standing up straight. She looked up at Sakuya who waved at her through the window, and hurried to the gardening department with brisk steps.

It was not until the light green figure disappeared from the edge of her sight that Ms. Sakuya reluctantly returned to the warehouse and threw herself onto the soft big bed without any image.

Xiao Mu won't be back for a while.

Holding the soft pillow, Sakuya was overwhelmed by the confusion and fatigue that had accumulated for a long time, and she suddenly realized that something was wrong with her.

Do I, perhaps, like girls a little bit...?

Chapter 146: It's All Sakuya's Fault

Wakaba Mutsu went and came back, but he did not find the familiar flaxen-haired girl in the secluded warehouse. The flower beds, racks, and lockers were all covered with messy climbing marks. It was not until he heard a light and regular snoring sound that he saw Ichinose Sakuya lying on the double bed.

"...So...Soyo." Ruo Yemu approached the bedside in a panic, and only felt relieved when he saw the brown leather boots neatly placed beside the bed and the peaceful sleeping face of the girl on the bed. She was obviously very lively not long ago, jumping up and down in the literal sense, but now she was very quiet when she fell asleep. Maybe it was because she was exhausted?

Ms. Sakuya did not respond to Wakaba Mu's gentle call. She was sleeping peacefully. The neat quilt under her body had wrinkles. In a trance, she seemed to see someone rolling around on the bed. It seemed that she lay down and fell asleep with her clothes on.

"Su Shi...get up." Wakaba Mutsu walked closer and repeated it softly, with a cute expression of being a little at a loss on her little face. She remembered that Sakuya said today that she would be busy with the band's matters later.

However, Ichinose Sakuya, lying on the soft big bed, remained unmoved.

The dusty but still neat Tsuki no Mori school uniform was crumpled into creases. Sakuya-san was used to sleeping on her side, curled up slightly, half prone and half lying. The soft pillow that should have been under her head was moved to her waist because it was too high, serving other purposes. The upper half was wrapped by her arms, and the remaining large half was tightly clamped by the girl's plump thighs through the navy blue school uniform skirt.

Since she was a child, Sakuya has had the bad habit of clamping something in her arms when she sleeps. She even snatched her sister's quilt when they slept together, causing Miss Motoyo to wake up from the cold in the middle of the night. She had to take back her half from her sister's arms with a frown on her face, and push the little head that was leaning towards her side back to its original position before she could continue to sleep uncomfortably.

I have to wake up Sakuya...

Miss Mu, who was worried about what to do, was still recalling how the maid at home gently woke her up, but her golden eyes unconsciously fell on that familiar face. After a slight pause, she followed the girl's tall figure all the way down until her eyes stopped at the ends of her flaxen hair.

If Su Shi fell asleep... would her sleeping position be the same as Sakuya's now? Wakaba Mu subconsciously thought so, opened her mouth slightly, and closed her eyes again, trying to forget this inappropriate thought.

Sakuya and Motoyo's faces are absolutely identical. Otherwise, I wouldn't have observed for such a long time before I guessed that the girl who would go to school with me in Tsuki no Mori would be Motoyo's twin sister. Thinking back to the first time I saw Sakuya, I thought Motoyo had become two.

Ruoye Mu chuckled for a moment and finally made up his mind. He gently placed his small hand on the girl's soft cheek, pressing out a shallow depression.

No one had taught her what to do at this time. She just thought that touch was easier to wake up a sleeping person than hearing, so she stretched out her hand. She originally wanted to shake Sakuya's shoulders, but when she came to her senses, she found that her fingers seemed to have ideas of their own, followed by her entire palm.

"Hmm..." The even snoring paused for a moment and then quickly resumed. It seemed that it had adapted to the harassment of the fingers and even took the initiative to put the fingers on the cold and open palm.

Wakaba Mu's arm wrapped in school uniform trembled noticeably, but he let someone's cheek touch it lightly. Strands of warmth flowed up along the palm of his hand until his cheek felt slightly hot. Mu then took his hand back, panting, and with a slight tremor, he stroked his own face, which didn't feel as good as Sakuya's.

The warehouse was very quiet, with only the sound of Sakuya's soft snoring and the beating of his own heart.

Wakaba Mutsu remained silent for a while, reflecting on the strange behavior he had just done in front of his outstretched palm, before he cheered himself up and pushed Sakuya's shoulder with a little effort.

The motionless Miss Sakuya finally opened her eyes in a daze. She rolled half a circle due to the force, and her gray-blue eyes half opened, and she caught a glimpse of the familiar Tsuki no Mori school uniform.

Then, Ms. Sakuya closed her eyes peacefully again.

"Sleep a little longer~" She acted like a spoiled child to her sister as usual. If she was in bed, it should be her sister who would wake her up, right? Although the bed was a little too soft and not very comfortable today, it was not even daybreak yet, and her sister really liked to torment people.

"..." Ruo Yemu, who was always slow and leisurely, lowered his head very quickly. The contrast and shock were too strong. Even though he was not very sensitive to emotions, he could feel the joy in the girl's murmur.

The virus that awakened the body's autonomous thoughts seemed to have infected him more severely. It had now spread to his knees. By the time Ye Mu reacted, he found that he had already taken off his standard round-toed leather shoes and was half-kneeling on the edge of the bed where Sakuya had just lain. He leaned forward, so close that he could clearly feel the girl's breath from his fingertips.

I...I was trying to wake Sakuya up...

"Xiao Mu...?" Miss Sakuya opened one eye when she heard the sound, feeling confused. She was sleeping at home, so why did she see a little cucumber with light green hair?

"...Yeah." The person in front of him seemed to finally wake up. Ruo Yemu first breathed a sigh of relief, then withdrew his hand with a sense of loss, and hid it behind his back as if he had done something wrong.

"Soya, it's time to get up." Mu added in her usual calm tone, only to realize that she had subconsciously called the wrong name.

"Well, do you want to sleep together?" Miss Sakuya, who was in a trance, stretched out her arms and virtual embraced the doll girl who was close to her, and hugged her in her arms with joy. She didn't know where her pillow was, so it would be nice to use this as a replacement.

It’s rare that I dream about Xiaomu. Maybe it’s because we’ve met a lot recently?

After all, Xiao Mu would not come to his house, nor would he call 'Soya' to wake him up, so this must be a dream.

Miss Sakuya thought so and closed her eyes in satisfaction again. She subconsciously clamped her legs around the new pillow which had a slight cool feeling. She could also smell the refreshing smell of cucumber. It was a really nice dream. She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be something that she hadn't dealt with yet. But if she couldn't remember it, it meant it wasn't important. She would talk about it after she got up.

This time, Ruo Yemu also stood still.

The shackles of etiquette and conscience were completely broken by the girl's sudden initiative. She was pressed against Sakuya's chest, and could feel the warm and soft touch through her thin bangs. She could feel the ambiguous breath on her head, and her legs were also tightly imprisoned...

She blushed and closed her eyes tightly, and pushed gently with her hands but failed to change Sakuya's subconscious intimate action.

Ruoye Mu thought for a long time.

Then gave up struggling.

"It's all Sakuya's fault." Wakaba Mutsuki whispered to himself as he buried himself in the arms of the person he liked.

Chapter 147 The number you dialed cannot be connected

This was the fifth time that Nagasaki Suyo heard the missed call tone from the blue shark-shell phone next to her ear.

"The number you dialed could not be connected. Please try again."

Sakuya's cell phone was casually placed on the plastic square table in the open-air area of ​​the coffee shop, next to the iced American coffee she ordered. The summer heat had not yet dissipated, and the evening light shone with residual heat. The slight touch of the cup caused the melted ice cubes to shift away from each other, and then collided with each other under the action of buoyancy, making a loud clicking sound.

Miss Motoyo anxiously stroked the knuckles of her left hand with her right index finger. She maintained a frequency of one call every five minutes, but Sakuya had not replied to her yet. The agreed time was about to come, and Riki's train was about to arrive at the station. Should she go to the bathroom first to change into Tsuki Nomori's uniform?

I can't lead the conversation using Sakuya's identity. Sakuya won't and can't say words with such a strong purpose. I have to participate in it with my original identity to keep the plan going. But what if Sakuya suddenly comes and bumps into everyone in the band...

The force of the fingertips was getting stronger and stronger. Even the slight pain could not wake up Nagasaki Suyo from thinking, but Miss Suyo was not the only one sitting alone at the small table next to the cafe.

"Sakuya ordered an iced Americano. I didn't realize it. It has an unexpectedly mature feel." Chihaya Aine put down the English-flavored latte she had specially chosen, her light gray eyes fell on the tangled fingertips of the flaxen-haired girl, and she chuckled and spoke.

"Ah...because there are often some iced Americano scenes in movies. I feel that if I can drink this bitter drink, I will become more mature." Miss Su Shi came back to her senses and pondered her sister's train of thought. She put her fingers together and responded with a smile.

“Right, right~ I get it, just like when I order a latte, it’s for taking a photo and posting it on SNS, it’s going to be kind of cool, right~” Aine-san came closer and nodded in agreement. As expected, Sakuya and she really got along well.

"Well... yes." Nagasaki Suyo smacked her lips secretly. She felt that the pink-haired guitarist in front of her was rustic, with old-fashioned aesthetics, like a nouveau riche from the countryside.

Takamatsu Deng, who was still feeling uneasy about her choice to escape, also looked up when she heard this. She stared at Sakuya beside her for a while with a little confusion, then tilted her head to think with some uncertainty.

She couldn't tell why, but she just felt a little strange. The Sakuya at school recently and just now didn't look like what Sakuya should be like. Instead, she looked a bit like the Nagasaki Motoyo she was very familiar with.

"What about Deng? You ordered a mocha coffee. Do you like the taste of milk and coffee mixed together?" Ms. Aine, a social expert, skillfully threw the conversation to the silent Takamatsu Deng. During a dinner party, one always has to find common topics to get everyone involved so that the party can be happy.

"Eh? Me?" Gao Songdeng's meditation communication method was forced to be interrupted. He suddenly raised his head, then lowered it again embarrassedly, put his hands on his knees, and explained with a little nostalgia. "Actually, I can't say I like it, nor do I hate it. It's just that the first time I drank mocha coffee with everyone was."

"Wow~ It feels so romantic. This habit that is gradually developed because of friendship may last forever." Chihaya Aine praised with her little mouth before her brain did, only then she realized how sensitive Xiao Deng was and the inappropriate words she had just said.

“By the way, Sakuya, is the iced Americano delicious?” Miss Aine turned her head away awkwardly and suddenly asked, changing the subject to the item that she caught her eye at first glance.

"It's a bit bitter, but I can still taste the aroma of coffee with ice cubes, so it's not bad." Nagasaki Suyo answered indifferently. She always thought that Xiao Deng liked mocha. It turned out that it was because of such an ordinary reason...

“Then how about we switch drinks? I can exchange my latte with Sakuya-chan~” Miss Aine tried to push her further.

"No...it's not very hygienic." Nagasaki Suyo started to say something and suddenly changed her words. She reached out to cover her coffee cup to prevent someone who had no sense of distance from touching it directly.

"Sakuya is so stingy, I won't steal it from you." Chihaya Aine silently withdrew her hand that was about to reach the edge of the coffee cup, and muttered.

"Isn't this very against social etiquette? To use my sister's words." Miss Su Shi tilted her head, narrowed her eyes slightly, and secretly condemned the unscrupulous pink-haired lecher.

Seriously, why would anyone agree to exchange drinks mouth to mouth? Wouldn't that be an indirect kiss?

Gao Songdeng blinked and watched the interaction between the two. He quietly pushed the mocha coffee in front of him, which he had only taken a small sip of, and whispered, "If Xiao Aiyin wants to drink it, you can try mine."

"Really? Xiao Deng, you're so nice. Try your latte too~" Miss Aine was a little surprised. She picked up her latte and mocha and put them together. She took out her cell phone and took a photo of the three of them before nodding with satisfaction. Now she could pretend to casually show the photo to her classmates. It turned out that it was the right choice to form a band with popular people.

"Tsk." Miss Su Shi let out a light sigh, feeling inexplicably unhappy. She ignored the two people around her who were discussing the taste of coffee and pressed the dial button on her phone again.

"Sakuya-chan, did you click your tongue just now? I heard it~" After sipping her mocha coffee, Chihaya Aine turned the leg of her chair slightly and leaned to the same side as the two of them, speaking close to Motoyo.

"I'm worried about why I can't get through to my sister on the phone." Miss Su Shi put on a business smile, with veins slightly bulging on her forehead. This guy is getting too close to me. His arm has already touched my chest. Please maintain basic social distance!

"Indeed, but Su Shi said that cell phones aren't allowed in Tsuki no Mori. Maybe something happened at school and he was delayed?" Miss Aine put her index finger on her smooth chin and helped think about it.

"I hope so." Although my sister is not well-behaved, she knows her priorities. She hasn't replied yet. It's impossible that she had so much fun playing with the young ladies of Tsuki No Mori that she forgot the time, right?

The little shark behind the phone trembled, and after a beep, it turned to the answer button. The sudden ring of the call without any hope made Miss Su Shi stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and asked softly in a hoarse voice.

"Sister, where are you now? Do you need me to pick you up?"

"......"

Chapter 148: Waking Up

wake.
