"By the way, Sister Jing, if you have time this weekend, I will help you awaken your supernatural talent, and then you can practice normally."

After opening the car door and getting out, Hoshino Sora took two steps forward, and the next moment he seemed to suddenly remember something and ran forward, knocked on the car window and spoke to Hiratsuka Shizuka inside.

"Okay, I'm free this weekend, just call me when the time comes."

"Okay, bye then."

After saying this, Hoshino Sora turned and left.

Shizuka Hiratsuka stood there for a while, looking at his back, and then drove away.

"The scenery is so beautiful on a sunny day, the flowers are red and the grass is green, I run forward happily, and I will never grow old even if I walk through the green mountains..."

Stepping into the old apartment building again, Hoshino Sora suppressed the excitement in his heart, hummed a little tune as he walked upstairs, twisting his body as he walked, looking very showy.

His dear sister, I wonder if she misses him! ~

"I am back!"

After taking out the key and opening the door, Hoshino Sora shouted excitedly into the house. However, after a few seconds, there was no response from inside, which made him stand there in a daze.

"Oh, I went out to play."

Looking at the quiet house, Hoshino Sora's expression froze. Then he changed into slippers and went to the living room. Leaning against the sofa, he relaxed and his mood became a lot more relaxed.

Sure enough, home is the most comfortable place!

"But where is Kotori? Never mind, it's still early, let's cook first."

After resting on the sofa for a while, Hoshino Sora got up and went to the kitchen. He quickly took out the ingredients from his system backpack and put his chin on his hand to think about the food he was going to cook.

"Kotori likes sweets, so let's make tiramisu for dessert. As for the main course, how about having curry after a long absence? This thing is also very quick to make..."

Looking at the ingredients on the table, Hoshino Sora had bought all the ingredients available in the supermarket for convenience. Now they were finally put to use!

"Let's make tiramisu first. I remember there's a magazine here that explains how to make it..."

While thinking, Hoshino Sora got up and started searching at home. Soon he found a dessert collection in an unknown corner. He bought it during the summer vacation. At that time, he had not yet awakened the system. He was very free every day and had plenty of time to study food.

Among them, Gokawa Kotori’s favorite dessert is naturally the type he cooks the most.

“First, beat the eggs…”

Hoshino Sora muttered to himself as he quickly beat five eggs, separated the egg yolks and egg whites, added a large amount of fine sugar to the egg yolks, and beat the egg yolks with a hand whisk until they turned white. He then added mascarpone cheese in portions, continued beating until evenly mixed, and set aside.

Add a few drops of white vinegar to the egg white and beat with a whisk until bubbles appear. Continue to add sugar and beat until it resembles meringue.

Then add the whipped meringue into the egg yolks in batches and mix evenly. Then add a small amount of coffee liquid and some rum to increase the flavor.

Put the finger biscuits into the coffee liquid to absorb enough liquid, and then place them at the bottom of a square transparent box. Add a layer of filling, then another layer of finger biscuits, and then the filling. Stacking layer by layer can increase the taste of tiramisu. When finished, cover with a lid and put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate.

Waiting time to make curry...

Hoshino Sora was cooking with ease.

Since he rarely makes tiramisu, he may still need to look at the recipe, but he makes curry at home very often, so he can cook it with ease. He can throw all the ingredients into the stew pot in a few seconds, then cover it with a lid and set the timer on the induction cooker.

"Perfect. Now we just have to wait for Kotori and the others to come back."

Because he wanted to give his sister and Kitagawa a surprise, Hoshino Sora did not specifically tell him when he would be back, but today was the weekend, and it was quite unexpected for him that they were not at home.

With thoughts rushing up his mind, Hoshino Sora dozed off on the sofa.

Time passed by minute by minute, and I didn't know how long it had been before I heard the sound of the doorknob turning slightly at the door.

Hearing the voice, Hoshino Sora, who was originally very sleepy, instantly became alert. He raised his head and looked towards the door, and happened to meet the eyes of Itsuka Kotori who was wearing a cosplay costume.

"Onii-chan? You're back!?"

The moment the girl saw Hoshino Sora, her tired expression turned into surprise. She then trotted over to him, jumped up, opened her arms and hugged him tightly.

"Did you just come back from the comic convention?"

Looking at the way the two were dressed, Sora Hoshino immediately understood why they were not at home. It was probably that some comic convention was being held nearby. Kitagawa was ready to go after receiving the news, but seeing that Kotori Itsuka was alone and a little lonely, he took her with him.

"Well, we had a lot of fun today. Our sister group is very popular!"

"Yes, it was the first time I saw so many people coming here to collect stamps. I was shocked at the time."

Kitagawa Umi also came over at this moment. At the same time, Hoshino Sora noticed that the two of them were dressed in parent-child outfits, or to be more precise, they were the outfits of sisters in a certain game.

"After all, you are dressed so beautifully. If I were at the comic convention at that time, I would definitely come over to collect stamps. You guys should wash your hands and get ready for dinner."

Hoshino Sora praised with a smile, then stood up from the sofa and walked all the way to the kitchen. At this moment, the curry had just come out of the pot and was steaming hot.

"You guys came back at a perfect time. I just finished cooking the curry. After washing your hands, go sit over at the dining table. I'll serve you some curry rice."

"Great! I haven't had curry rice made by Onii-chan for a long time! I'll go help."

After washing her hands, Kotori Itsuka rolled up her sleeves and took the curry rice beside her. The curry rice was steaming hot at this moment, and when the curry and rice came into contact, it exuded an exceptionally rich aroma.

"Onii-chan, please serve another portion. I'll go next door and ask Hongxu to come over to eat. She has taken good care of me during this period, but I haven't had the chance to express my gratitude."

"Okay, you go."

After hearing what Gokawa Kotori said, Hoshino Sora nodded and then served another serving of curry rice.

Anyway, he has done a lot, so one more or one less mouth won’t make much difference.

"No wonder your sister's cooking skills are so good, it turns out you taught her all."

Looking at the curry rice in front of her that exuded an extremely rich aroma, Kitagawa Umi's stomach immediately growled. The aroma was much stronger than that made by Itsuka Kotori, and both the color and taste were better. It was no exaggeration to say that it was an upgraded version!

When thinking about the food he usually eats, Kitagawa Umi's mind naturally emerges the scene of the brother and sister cooking and learning together. A family with brothers and sisters must be very warm.

"I didn't teach her specifically. She just helped me cook before. I guess she learned it over time."

"This is what we call teaching. To be more precise, it should be called teaching by example."

Four servings of curry were brought to the table. Since Kotori Itsuka had not returned yet, Hoshino Sora started chatting with Kitagawa Umi. In fact, he was the one who prepared Hoshino Masaru's three meals a day before he went to high school.

On the one hand, Kotori was too young, and on the other hand, Hoshino Sora had a lot of free time. The knowledge in junior high school was too simple, and he could easily get full marks even if he didn't learn anything.

"Squeak~"

"Long time no see, Hongxu."

While the two were chatting, there was a noise at the door. Looking at the familiar face, Hoshino Sora raised his hand and greeted him enthusiastically. However, after seeing him, Kanano Hongxu's expression changed subtly.

The experiences of the past period of time emerged in her mind unnaturally. She thought she had moved on from it, but she didn't expect that the moment she saw Hoshino Sora, she remembered it all again.

Those slaps one after another at that time rubbed her self-esteem to the ground for a long time!

However, she naturally couldn't show it at this time, otherwise she would be laughed at by Hoshino Sora!

"Long time no see, you have become much stronger."

"It's okay. You've become stronger. You must have been training very hard recently."

She looked at Xingye Kong with complicated eyes. He had become stronger again. In the past, she could clearly feel that he was very strong, but now, this guy in front of her looked like an ordinary person.

There is only one reason for this.

That is, Hoshino Sora has reached the point where she can no longer tell the strength of a man, and the last man she couldn't see through...

His name is Gojo Satoru!

Volume 1: Chapter 126: The unwilling Huaye Hongxu, the determination to become stronger

It was hard to imagine how this guy had grown to a point that she couldn't see in such a short time! She was clearly trying to become stronger, but she just couldn't catch up...

Not only Hoshino Sora, but even Kitagawa Umi beside him has recently given her a sense of danger, as if his strength has improved by leaps and bounds and has suddenly reached a level that ordinary people cannot reach!

This is very strange. Logically speaking, a person's strength cannot grow so fast. Even for a genius, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to break through the realm should be gradual, rather than a leap every once in a while.

But the fact is this, which makes her puzzled...

"Don't think too much, just eat dinner first."

Looking at Huano Hongxu who was caught in self-doubt, Xingye Kong clapped his hands lightly and returned to his position.

Kotori Itsuka and Akane Akio sat down and looked at the beef curry rice on the plates in front of them. They couldn't help swallowing their saliva. Then their stomachs growled loudly, making their faces blush.

Hoshino Sora's words made everyone at the scene nod, and then they picked up their plates and started eating with relish.

He kept scooping curry rice into his mouth with the spoon, chewing it twice and then taking another spoonful. He ate it so deliciously, as if he hadn't eaten for many days. Finally, he looked at the empty plate in front of him and stared at Hoshino Sora.

"What do you usually eat at home?"

Hoshino Sora took the plate handed to him by Huano Hongxu. It was already clean, without even a grain of rice visible. He then helped her scoop rice while asking curiously.

How bad must this guy's food be on a normal day to make him eat curry rice so voraciously...

"Usually... instant noodles or something. Occasionally I'll go out for some fast food. After all, my budget is limited."

Taking the plate handed over by Hoshino Sora, Kanano Hongxu ate curry with a happy face and said vaguely that because she really couldn't cook, the thing she ate most on weekdays was instant noodles.

Well, instant noodles of various flavors.

"Um, well, I didn't expect you couldn't cook. If you want, you can come to our house for dinner. Eating instant noodles all the time is not good for your health."

"Is it really possible?! Can you really be late for such delicious dishes so often?!"

Hearing what Hoshino Sora said, Huano Hongxu's eyes lit up instantly, and she stood up slightly and leaned forward, looking as if she wanted to pounce on him.

"It's just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks. Just come."

Hoshino Sora waved his hand indifferently, because he had something to ask her next. He understood that he had to give some benefits before asking for help. This was the most basic principle of life.

"it is good!"

Huano Hongxu nodded seriously. If one could eat such delicious food every day, who would like to eat instant noodles every day!

After this sentence, the scene was silent for a while.

However, the silence was soon broken by Itsuka Kotori, who looked at Hoshino Sora with burning eyes, her expression revealing curiosity:

"Onii-chan, tell us about this school trip!"

Kotori Gokawa's words made Kitagawa Umi and Kanano Akao look over. Hoshino Sora thought for a moment, then concealed some of the content with sinister undertones and mainly talked about the happy times.

"By the way, I also brought you gifts."

As if remembering something, Hoshino Sora waved his hand and took out a few beautifully shaped hairpins from the system backpack, then put them on the dining table and placed them in front of Gokawa Kotori. It was obviously a gift for her.

"so beautiful!"

Looking at the Hokkaido-style hairpins in front of her, Kotori Itsuka's face showed an excited expression. While speaking, she picked up one of them and gestured to her head, but she didn't know how to wear it.

"Let me do it. I learned how to put it on when I came back. It's hard to put it on without prior experience."

Hoshino Sora spoke softly, then stood up and walked behind Itsuka Kotori, seemed to style her hair with her hands, then took the hairpin and helped her put it on with a serious look.

After finishing, he produced a mirror from his system backpack, and placed it in front of the girl at a good angle so that she could see her appearance clearly.

"What a beautiful hairpin!"*2

Kotori Itsuka and Umumu Kitagawa expressed their feelings almost at the same time, especially Umumu Kitagawa, the love in her eyes could not be hidden at all, if this was not bought by Hoshino Sora for Kotori Itsuka, she would have to pick it up and try it out!

"Don't be jealous, Hai Meng. I bought you a headdress based on some of the more common characters in the game. You can match it when you cosplay. There are also ones for daily wear. I hope you will like it."

Noticing the change in Kitagawa Umi's expression, Hoshino Sora took out a bunch of hairbands and silk headdresses from the system backpack. According to the introducer, these were special styles only available in Hokkaido. He saw them while shopping and bought them because he thought they were suitable for her.

In addition, he brought a lot of snacks, Hokkaido-style clothes and other specialties, planning to take them out after everyone left. After all, if the things were divided, they would be gone in an instant.

"Thank you, I like it very much!"

Looking at the headdresses covering the table, Kitagawa Umi's face was filled with emotion. It could be seen that these were carefully selected by Hoshino Sora. She liked each one of them very much, and they were also in line with mainstream aesthetics.

Of course, the gift is a small matter, but Hoshino Sora’s concern is big. What she cares about is never the gift, but the feeling of being remembered!

"Hongxu has some too. I brought them specially for you."

Looking at Huano Hongxu who was standing beside him with her head down, trying her best not to pay attention to the gift, Xingno Sora naturally couldn't ignore her.

Although there was no special preparation for him, he bought a lot of local specialties during his trip, many of which were suitable as gifts, so he flipped his palm and produced a box of sakura cakes.

"I remember you like Hagi mochi, but you also want to try something else, so I bought some Sakura mochi for you. I've already tested the taste and I think it's pretty good."

As he was speaking, Hoshino Sora handed the gift box in his hand to Kaneo Hongxu. He happened to pass by a dim sum shop and smelled the fragrance emanating from inside. He went into the store to taste the dim sum and packed the box to bring back.

He had originally wanted to take it out and give it to Kotori as a surprise in two days, but now, everyone had something except her. If he didn't show some appreciation, it would seem like they were isolating her.

As a person with high emotional intelligence, Hoshino Sora would naturally not do such a stupid thing!

"For me? Thank you."
