"Well, Kirigaya... if you have something to say, feel free to say it, but I think we should go somewhere else first, at least..."

Shino-san forced a smile and turned her head to look to the side. Within her line of sight, there were not only several people who were sneaking around trying to watch, but also a cashier holding her phone, hesitating whether to call the police.

"Is that so? Then... let's go somewhere else."

Kiritani-san slightly suppressed his smile and then took a small step back.

However, at this moment, Shino-san inadvertently revealed a look that said, "I have a great advantage." Her expression was very calm. "Considering that I might not be able to come back to the supermarket later, I'll sell what I need first before I leave."

...Where exactly do you need to go for in-depth exchanges before you feel like you can't come back?

Do you think I want to drag you to the nearby woods to have sex with you, or do I want to tear you to pieces and sink you into Tokyo Bay?

Ha! Don't be so naive! I'm not going to go to jail for something like this!

Yes, the idea of ​​dumping her body in Tokyo Bay is a complete joke. At least Asada Shino's crime doesn't warrant death. It's more like they've reached the point where they want to push her into the road.

But then again, isn't this guy a little too calm? Did he anticipate that I wouldn't do anything too outrageous?

Kiritani-san narrowed his eyes. Just how well does this guy know me?

"I don't know you very well!"

Without turning her head, Shino grabbed a snack she had been struggling to choose from.

Mind reading?

"It's not mind reading, it's just a habit of thinking. If you put yourself in your shoes, these are the first things that come to mind."

With her gaze drifting across the shelves, Shino became increasingly calm, as if nothing had happened before.

Kiritani-san smiled wryly, "Then why don't you think about how I'll have an in-depth conversation with you later?"

"Well, I really don't expect that kind of thing."

Holding a certain amount of snacks, Shino pushed up her glasses with the back of her hand and smiled, "But there are some things I can think of. For example, Kirito-san went out today just to take a walk... Well, I have to say, this unkempt look is actually quite charming."

"Anything is fine with this kind of thing..."

"No, that's not true!"

She turned around, took two steps forward, and looked at Kiritani-san's slightly open eyes. "If it's just about Shiina-san, given Kiritani-san's personality, he'd probably be very angry at first, maybe even wanting to come and chop me up with a wooden sword. But when he sees me in person, he'd at most make threats and intimidation..."

"After all, my relationship with Kirigaya-kun... well, I should say our level of friendship isn't high enough. So Kirigaya-kun definitely won't treat me as casually as she would treat people with whom she has a certain level of friendship. Therefore, even if Kirigaya-kun wanted to tell me about Shiina-kun later, she probably wouldn't actually know what to say, right?"

"No! Rather, it's not that Kirigaya-kun wants to tell me anything right now, but rather..."

She chuckled softly, her eyes narrowing slightly. "You need someone who can accompany you for walks in their spare time? Hmm, and we also need to exclude those with whom you have an emotional connection... right?"

So, what was this guy trying to do by suddenly saying all that?

Showcasing her brilliant reasoning? Ah! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean that at all!

Kiritani rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache. He was now certain that Asada Shino was indeed a troublesome person.

"Anyway, it just so happens that it's the weekend today, so it wouldn't hurt to spend a little time with you. After all, we're classmates."

Sinon smiled slightly, pursing her lips. "Well then, before that, I'll have to trouble you a little, Kirito-san. Could you help me carry this?"

He moved the snacks he was holding in his arms slightly towards Kiritani-san, gesturing for the boy in front of him to pick them up.

"...I don't quite understand your inexplicable confidence."

With dead fish eyes, Kiritani-san's gaze swept over her chest, finally settling on those zeros... Hey, what the heck is this pack of sanitary napkins?

"Huh? So my figure has unexpected value? That it can attract so much attention from Kiritani-kun?"

Sinon blinked, then smiled subtly. "I think Kirito-san should think about the consequences again. Who knows, I might be the kind of girl who gets shy easily, and when you're not looking, I might even call and tell Yuuki-san that you're actually a pervert..."

Before she could finish speaking, Shino-san suddenly fell silent. She looked at Lu Chao with an expression that said, "I'm so stupid, really!" and then let out a heavy sigh.

For a moment, I thought this lunatic had finally realized she hadn't taken her medication before going out today.

But actually...

"I almost forgot, Kiritani-kun also has the extremely well-known name Fujiwara Echizen."

"You mean I'm a pervert by nature?"

"Yeah, I almost forgot there was such a refreshingly unconventional pervert as you."

"I feel like there's something wrong with your character setting? Your personality changed a bit too quickly, didn't it? When I first met you, you were at least a normal person."

"Well, you'll definitely have different ways of talking to different people, and that applies to how you behave at school..."

Shino smiled faintly, "Ms. Kashiwagi acts like a princess at school, but who doesn't know she's a total tsundere, and also a part-time erotic illustrator? As for me, I just try to be more of a good student. You have to make a good first impression, so I seemed a bit quiet back then. Now..."

She tilted her head. "It's not so strange to talk casually to a pervert, is it?"

"That's true. Even if I, a pervert, stuff a sanitary napkin into your mouth, there's nothing wrong with it, right? I still have to respect the profession of pervert."

Kiritani looked blankly at him. He always felt that Asada Shino's long speech was actually trying to cover up something, but Kiritani hadn't found it yet.

But to be honest, Shino Asada is really a bit scary! I always feel like she turns her back on me completely, ruining my initial impression and putting on a completely new face... Thinking about it, it really is scary.

Could it be that he or she has some kind of psychological problem?

Well, this is the first time I've encountered a situation where it's like the person has completely changed...

Upon hearing Kiritani's words, Shino couldn't help but show a look of disgust. She quickly distanced herself, walked to the cashier, put down the things she was carrying, and let the cashier start counting them.

Kiritani-kun also stepped over, put down the chocolate and milk in his hand, but he didn't say anything, because the cashier's eyes were looking at him and Sinon in a slightly strange way, as if... looking at a man and woman playing a special game.

"He should... um, have an Adam's apple."

The cashier stared at Kiritani-kun for a moment, then a look of realization dawned on her face. But then, in a tone of disappointment, she said, "Young man..."

...Someone could tell my gender at a glance. I was shocked. So it's not like everyone except those who know me is blind?

"Young man, this isn't a place to build up goodwill. Although helping you carry those things might have increased your favorability a little."

Correction: This might just be a dead woman who frequently plays games like "Near the Moon Bend".

"She already spoke up! Being arrogant won't work!"

"..."

Kiritani's face was full of black lines, while Sinon was slightly stunned, turning her head to look at Kiritani, as if... she had discovered something quite unbelievable.

"However, there's nothing wrong with liking a girl, but your sudden attack, your impulsive actions and doing something bad to her, could land you in jail."

Although Shi Naisang looked slightly bewildered, he still nodded vigorously in agreement.

"Please!"

Kiritani-san suddenly chuckled, and in a rather cheeky way, "My girlfriend and I have been in a relationship for at least two years. What makes you think a mere single guy like me has the ability to teach me dating skills?"

You might not believe it, but besides my girlfriend, there are many other girls eyeing me covetously.

"Eh...Eh?!?!"

Instantly, a look of shock appeared on the cashier's face, which then turned completely black.

"Puhahaha!!"

Shino couldn't help but burst out laughing; this was just... too much!

Even if you can tell someone is single, you can't just say it directly!

Then, Shino-san was inexplicably glared at by the cashier... Seriously, does she think I'm Kiritani-san's girlfriend?

However, before Sinon could speak, Kiritani paid and walked out of the supermarket. He genuinely remembered the last time he mocked a bubble tea shop employee like that, he turned around and found that the food was actually discounted by 12%...

"Wait a minute!"

He picked up his things and quickly followed, while Shino walked beside him with a hint of helplessness. "Why are you walking in such a hurry?"

"It feels like such a waste of time."

Kiritani opened the seal and silently took a sip of milk. "Actually, you know what I'm going to say to you. Now you have a pretty good idea, right? If there's nothing else, go back. I'm going to take a walk somewhere else."

"Number? Not at all!"

Sinon walked around to stand in front of Kirigaya-kun, smiling as she adjusted her glasses. "Well, I do have some questions for Kirigaya-kun, and I'm sure he won't refuse to answer them."

Kiritani-kun calmly replied, "I refuse."

"I knew it! How could Kirito-kun possibly refuse a simple question?"

Hey! Didn't you hear me say I refused?

She walked to the stone bench in front of the supermarket, sat down, and waved to Kiritani-kun. "Kiritani-kun must be very concerned, right? Why do I know you so well?"

"No, I don't care!"

Actually, I'm quite bothered by it. After all, we hadn't really interacted before, and this sudden, inexplicable understanding just feels strange. If we follow the light novel formula, it's probably going to lead to a romance... But wait, that's probably impossible, right? This kind of inexplicable development...

Ouch! I'm so angry!

Asada Shino puffed out her cheeks slightly, and faced with this unconventional situation, she took a deep breath, "Actually, I'm your fan..."

"Is it the kind of person who talks about fans to your face, then turns around and betrays you in a way that's utterly deceiving you?"

Kiritani-kun still remembers that when he played the game using the ID Fujiwara Echizen, the opponent messaged him at the start saying they were a die-hard fan, and then Kiritani-kun was camped by them for at least twenty minutes...

"Sorry, I don't need that kind of fan!"

"Well, rather than fans or anything like that, what I really want to say is that I pay a lot of attention to you..."

"So, are you going to ask me next what my feelings are towards you?"

“——Huh?”

With a surprised expression, Shino blinked blankly.

"Well, anyway, Kiritani-kun definitely understands, right?"

"No, I don't understand!"

Kiritani shook his head indifferently. This girl was lying. At least from her eyes, Kiritani couldn't see the expression that a girl would definitely have when she was about to confess to someone.

So, what exactly are you hiding?

P.S.: ---------------------

Book recommendation: *The Rise of a Hellfire Hero*

The protagonist is said to be a hellfire who can ride a horse on his arm, stand a person on his fist, break a boulder with his chest, and open a bottle with his anus. He's incredibly manly in every way except for not having a penis. This is tentatively a Hakoniwa/Dark Souls fanfic...

【NO.414 Drizzling】

"Oh ho ho, little Tongtong~!"

"Good morning, Alice..."

As he stepped out of the bathroom, Kiritani scratched his messy long hair, looking extremely lazy.

Yesterday, Kiritani spent a lot of his brainpower trying to figure out what Asada Shino was saying and what she was trying to hide. Afterwards, he wandered around aimlessly, which took a lot of his energy. When he got home near night, he found that Asuna and the others hadn't returned yet, so he went to bed...

Well, of course, Shino-san went home halfway through, since she couldn't possibly carry a bag full of sanitary napkins with Kiritani-kun for so long.

However, Kiritani-kun is certain of one thing: Sinon is troublesome, perhaps even more so than Haruno or Suigetsu. It's just that she hasn't shown it yet, but that's fine, at least she's enjoying some peace and quiet, isn't she?

Okay, being carefree is a complete lie. Don't forget about Alice.

Breakfast was made by Asuna. I wonder if Asuna and Alice made some kind of agreement without Kirito's knowledge, because they didn't fight over who should make breakfast... After all, isn't that the most heart-wrenching thing?

Incidentally, neither the butler nor the maid showed up today. If nothing unexpected happens, they probably won't be coming for quite some time, unless something unexpected happens to Asuna and Alice.

But Kiritani-kun thought it was great; he really wasn't used to that kind of big family life.

Now, Kiritani is enjoying breakfast, Asuna is helping Shiina Mashiro tidy up in the bathroom, and Alice is propping her cheeks up with her hands, staring intently at Kiritani... Well, thinking about Yuno Gasai's signature expression, although there are slight differences, the expressions of yandere and obsessive woman are still somewhat similar.

However, Kiritani-kun really hadn't realized that Alice had such a perverted side before. He really didn't know what Alice had gone through after moving, that she had become a perverted girl... Speaking of which, could it be that her mother taught her to do that?

Well, to be honest, I felt that if I started talking now, the conversation would be pretty stupid, and might even turn into an awkward chat. So it's probably better to just eat breakfast and go to school.

That said, things have been much easier lately. Wouldn't it be better to finish this new work that's been delayed for who knows how long while we're working on perfecting the erotic content for the winter CM?

Well, it's not that I forgot, I was just really busy before!

Haha! Creators, the passion for creation in their hearts will never be extinguished, as if they've forgotten the story they need to draw... How could that be!

Where did I put the script?

Kiritani blinked blankly, completely unaware of how many flags he had set for this work that had been talked about for months but still hadn't been released.
