The social phobia substitute will not dream of the band girl

"As long as I remember it, it's fine. After all, it was me who proposed the agreement."

Sitting on a bench by the road, the two of them drank their drinks, the air was quiet and peaceful. After drinking most of the drinks in one breath, the two of them continued on their way.

"Actually, it wasn't the highest speed before. If you wanted to go to New York, it would only take less than three minutes."

Well, that includes takeoff and landing.

“But don’t you need a passport?”

"It's okay. Actually, we are half invisible now."

"Invisible Man...?"

This is a setting that can be seen frequently in Eastern creations, but the places where it is usually seen are not so serious, at least that is the impression of Ping Xin.

Without giving Hina much time to think, Hirashin explained, "When we're in the sky, we're completely invisible, primarily through optical means. Even the most advanced radar can't detect us. And in times like this, I call this psychological invisibility/stream-of-consciousness invisibility."

Hina bit into her straw, waiting for his further explanation.

"It's actually a buff placed on the two of us, causing people to subconsciously ignore us. It's not that they can't see us, but even if they do, they won't pay attention. It's like those details of daily life, buried in the subconscious... In short, if they see it, they pretend not to see it. Even if they try to recall it later, they won't remember any details. The most they can remember is that we were a young man and woman."

"That's it~!"

"Rather than being invisible, I think it's more like a ghost moving between the cracks of consciousness."

"Oh~ so handsome~!"

Yeah, I think so too.

Chapter 4000 I am not a monkey ()

“The feeling of flying... so light and comfortable~!”

"...You'd better not say that outside."

"why?"

“It’s easy to be ambiguous.”

Of course, chasing the main one is very troublesome, Ping Xin added in his heart.

"I always feel like Hina (me) is being treated like a child~"

"After all, I am two years older than you in terms of years."

He is only two years old. If he was four or ten years old, wouldn't he become as kind as an old grandfather?

Hinana tried to imagine what Hiranobu would look like when he had white hair. He would definitely be a handsome old man who looked very gentle and reliable, but in private he would run around with the children and play some fun games.

Considering the number of girlfriends he has, this future might come sooner rather than later. Even though he's a superpowered person, he'll still age, right? Hinana was curious.

Ping Xin paused before speaking, "Besides... being able to act like a spoiled child is actually a good thing."

Many people had no one to act like a spoiled child when they were young, no chance to act like a spoiled child when they grew up, and after they grew up completely, they lost the right to act like a spoiled child forever. Gain and loss always appear together.

Like Ping Xin, he gained a lot of money and lost a lot of troubles.

Doesn't seem appropriate? But whatever.

"Ordinary mail is fine, right?"

What can be done?

"Come and act like a spoiled child to me~"

Hina, dressed in a gorgeous long dress, opened her arms wide, and even the table between them couldn't block her charm.

Hinana is the youngest among the group, but she looks the most mature and plump. In ancient times, people of this age might have been married and had children. In other words,

Ichikawa Hina is the woman who can become my mother!

Ahem... But considering both the expensive mom and the cheap dad are back, I'll keep this meme to myself for now. Of the four noctchill members, Enka is the one who's always worrying, but even Hina and Koito from the first year group have potential...

Hey, Toru. We're having this awesome party for all the moms-to-be, and guess who we didn't invite?

What kind of mother bullying is this? It's really hilarious...

"You're laughing so strangely, are you thinking of Enka-senpai and the others?"

“Yes and no…”

Wait, why did Hina's first choice when she spoke be Higuchi Enka, and not her best friend, Asakura Toru? Intelligence influences strategy, and details determine success or failure.

In my opinion, there must be something fishy about this matter!

After chatting for a few more sentences, the doorbell rang. The waiter pushed a small food cart into the house, placed dishes and poured drinks for the two of them, explained some simple precautions, and then left in silence.

Hiranobu and Hina began to eat—

"Speaking of which, is this lunch or dinner?"

Hinana gazed out the window at the nightscape. Both New York and Tokyo were cosmopolitan cities, with many distinct styles. But the most obvious thing now was the time difference. With just two minutes to break the 2-hour gap, the two of them drifted off into the night, sailing from the sunlit East to the vibrant night of the beautiful Land of the Night.

Outside, neon lights flickered, and giant electronic advertising screens were everywhere. As a three-star Michelin restaurant, it was inevitably located in a bustling area, yet not overly noisy. The constant stream of traffic outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was as quiet as if it were a photoshopped-in backdrop. The sizzling of steaks on the bedrock was the loudest source of noise in the room.

It was the first time in the beautiful country, the first time in such a high-end restaurant, and the first time to eat in formal attire, but Hinana did not show any signs of discomfort. She tasted the food and gave comments as usual, and the two chatted casually.

From east to west, from the sun to the moon, from ordinary to extraordinary, nothing has changed between the two.

"It's a pity that the time is not right now, otherwise we could experience the joy of shopping here."

"Ah, that's true~"

"But we can just come back at night... well, at night over there."

"Yeah~!"

No, so where did you learn this celebratory phrase from?

I?

......

...

..

"Ahh, I'm tired~"

"Uh-huh."

"Pingxin, carry me~~"

"Um...?"

Flying, skydiving, bungee jumping, cycling, playing billiards, going to the amusement park, visiting the snack street, playing in the water with killer whales, learning to drive a boat, before the sun sank into the horizon, Heishin returned to Tokyo with Ichikawa Hina.

"We've seen a lot of things today. Have you had enough fun?"

"Um... not yet~!"

Hinana put all her weight on Pingxin's back, and her body still exuded the fragrance of after bathing. The airflow during the flight did not blow away all of it, and at this moment, there was still a hint of the scent of the sea on her body.

Well, I know the taste of the sea.

"...Does Hina (me) smell good~?"

Why was it exposed?!

"Hmm... I guess. If it was an ordinary letter, they would definitely notice it... or something."

“…Home.”

Pingxin found that Hina was a little too naughty. If she was like this now, he didn't dare to think about what she would do in the future.

"See you tonight, Pingxin~"

"See you tonight..."

Something feels a bit strange? What's going on?

Pingxin watched Hina walk into the house, then slowly turned around and left, disappearing around a corner.

......

...

..

"Just leave the things you bought at the office first. You can take them back home later. Then you can say that the office has a partnership with a company related to the United States, so you got a lot of gifts."

"Lying is bad, okay~?"

Please, I'm trying to benefit you, and you're actually lecturing me?

You seem to be thinking about becoming a mother!

"We do have cooperation with the headquarters, so it's not a lie. My promotion of Yan Country watermelons also counts as economic cooperation with them, so there's nothing wrong with that."

"Aha~"

Wait, why are you taking off your clothes in front of me?

Even though I know you were very tired from playing during the day, and rested for a while after dinner before running to New York with me to go shopping, which consumed a lot of energy, and now you urgently need to take a shower and sleep, but this is not a reason for you to do this!

What have I done to make you disrespect me so much?

Not daring to shout, Pingxin opened the window and backed out. You left the same place you came from, and you even remembered to close the door when you left. You're quite polite.

"I always feel that Hirayuki-san's way of walking through the window is so skillful..."

"Is this the same thing as me not provoking you this time and I'm considered a 'senior'? Calling me that is enough for just one person. Okay, okay, it's time for you to go to bed, my good boy."

Ping Xin, who had just climbed out the window, half-peeked out again and unleashed a scathing attack on Hina. He wasn't staying because he wanted to spy, but just in case. After all, during their previous "Journey to the West" adventure, they'd just used a trick to discourage people from coming. If anything unexpected happened, he'd be there to handle it.

And I like to take a slow walk back, I won’t run that fast!

"Ah, Ping Xin, you came at the right time."

"?"

"The zipper of my skirt seems to be stuck, can you help me unzip it from the back~"

"..."

Pingxin always felt that he was being lured, but he had no evidence.

Ichikawa Hina placed one hand on her chest while using the other to lift her long, light brown hair, revealing her neck underneath. As a carefully designed skirt, the zipper position is easy to guess but hard to see at first glance, so it's reasonable for me to wait a few seconds before taking action, right?

When Hinana was about to turn around and suspected that Hiranobu had quietly left, Hiranobu suddenly came up behind her and secretly...

"...call--"

"Yeah~!"

In this windless and warm room, Hinana was startled by the sudden "wind." Perhaps only then did she clearly realize that Hirayukobu was not a gentleman, but a scumbag who had a harem in real life and also ate meat.

After blowing on the back of Hina's neck, Pingxin whispered in her ear again, "This is a punishment... There's a price to pay for teasing me."

The zipper unzipped smoothly, and Hina, holding her clothes down with one hand, turned around immediately. Poor Hirayuko, who had just sat on the windowsill and posed for only two seconds, had to turn around again, just like Brother Li who would never be petrified.

Well, partial petrification at best.

"What a beautiful moon tonight..."

...The moonlight is so beautiful?

No, no, no, since you can take off your clothes, why not go in and take a shower and then get to bed, okay?! Modern people really should learn from the lifestyles of ordinary office workers and pay attention to their physical and mental health, otherwise they'll kill themselves sooner or later.

While distracting himself with his complaints, Ping Xin suppressed the urge to look back and looked at the sky, which was tilted 45 degrees. "Yeah, the clouds have dispersed, and tomorrow will be a nice day too."

Damn, it’s been a long time since we had such an awkward chat. Do you have enough weather decks?

"Yeah~..."

Hirashin senses Hina creeping up on him, but why? What is she going to do?!

Unconsciously, his heartbeat gradually quickened. The reason why Ping Xin usually sealed most of his abilities was for moments like this, the excitement, the mysterious unknown, and the challenge.

If life had no surprises it would be the worst game ever, wouldn't it?

While Hiranobu was keeping silent and pretending to be an expert, Hina was still getting closer step by step... Tsk, was she deliberately walking so slowly, was she trying to "retaliate" for what happened just now?

After waiting for about 30 seconds, Hina finally came up behind Ping Xin. She tucked her messy hair behind her ear with one hand, then slowly leaned over to Ping Xin's ear and whispered, "This is a return gift~...啾~?"

A kiss on the lips represents love, a kiss on the cheek represents intimacy, but what about a kiss on the ear?
