Bullying Itsuki

"Asakawa-kun is a devil!"

Before class, Naoki gets a message from Ichika, followed by an emoji

very angry 'o(≧口≦)o'.

"What's wrong with me?"

Naoki replied to the message.

"You actually told Itsuki in such a horrible way, what if Itsuki takes it seriously?"

It's best to take it seriously, and you come to school every morning. Your bedridden syndrome is basically a procrastination disorder, a devil even more terrifying than bedridden!

"The phone has a password, so even if Itsuki takes it, she won't be able to read your messages," replied Naoki.

"Our five sisters have telepathy and can sense each other's passwords. Asakawa-kun, you have caused a big problem. O(≧口≦)o"

"Telepathy..."

Naoki raised his eyebrows slightly.

If it was in the past, he would definitely sneer at it, and not believe it at all. The essence of the world is science, but now as an Esper, Naoki no longer has a negative attitude towards Esper.

"Even though there's a 90% chance Ichika is joking..." Naoki pondered for a few seconds, "But let's verify."

Naoki turned to see Itsuki who was reading China.

"Hmm... Asakawa-san?" Itsuki tilted his head to look at her, and she looked really cute.

Naoki: "..."

I thought you were studying hard, but you are secretly eating snacks! Before the first class started, you have been secretly eating snacks, you are not hungry, you are obviously greedy!

"Cough cough cough." Itsuki's pretty face blushed, she quickly raised her hand to wipe the corners of her lips, swallowed the bread in her mouth, and then said, "This kind of small cake should be eaten while it's hot, it will taste bad when it's cold. Asakawa-san want to eat together?"

"Don't want to."

Naoki adamantly refuses, the title Big Eater is enough for you alone.

"You just told Ichika about my suggestion?"

"Eh?" Itsuki was taken aback, quickly embarrassed, and lowered his head, "Then… I think Asakawa-san's method sounds very effective, so I told Ichika to have her ready tomorrow morning. I will… I already confessed to Asakawa-san, I'm sorry."

"The verbal apology is not sincere." Naoki said in a low voice.

"Eh, then what to do?"

"Of course to show the chest/department. This is the basic method of apology. It must be passed down and brought forward!" Naoki subconsciously complained in his heart, then said earnestly, "Let me touch it."

"What did Asakawa-san just say?"

Itsuki opened his eyes wide, she thought she was having auditory hallucinations, how could Asakawa-san make such a vulgar and frivolous request, she must have heard wrong...

"Let me touch it."

The next moment, Naoki's voice echoed in his ears again.

This time, Itsuki heard clearly and distinctly, not a hallucination.

"T-Touch?!"

Itsuki's face reddened at a speed visible to the naked eye, she immediately raised his hands and covered his chest.

(Asakawa-san is going too far!)

(Even though it was my fault for leaking the secret to Ichika, but touching my chest…how can I promise such a thing!)

(This is already considered harassment!)

"Ugh-"

Itsuki puffed out his cheeks, with his blue eyes bashfully and furiously, like a little tiger whose buttocks were touched, and the next moment she was about to pounce with an 'ahhhh'.

"No! Such a thing is absolutely impossible!"

Take a few steps back and pretend she agrees, this is a classroom, all classmates are here, and there are many people with sharp eyes. If seen, they can only drop out of school! Even because they look exactly the same, even Nino and Miku will get involved!

Ah, familiar eyes mixed with disgust and shame exactly the same as Miku's, worthy of being five equal sisters...

"You misunderstand." Naoki said firmly, "Listen to my explanation."

For now, the decline in liking had stabilized, and Itsuki decided to make a choice based on Naoki's explanation.

"Ichika said that you five sisters have telepathy..." Naoki picked up the phone in front of Itsuki, "I want to verify, for example, touching your head or pinching your arm to see if Ichika can feel it."

"I see…" Itsuki heaved a sigh of relief, and then complained, "Telepathy is a fake."

"Not necessarily." Naoki mused, "In reality, there are indeed many examples of twins and multiple births interacting with each other."

"Anyway, we didn't." Itsuki shook his head, "At most, there are some tacit understandings in life… Even if Asakawa-san touched my head, Ichika would definitely not know."

If anything was exaggerated, wouldn't everyone be able to only date one boy in the future?

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing.

"Asagawa-kun, I want to drink milk tea." Ichika sent a message.

"Buy it yourself."

"No, Asagawa-kun asked Itsuki to take my cell phone. This is a crime of sedition, and the crime is one level away. Quickly buy some milk tea to bribe me."

I've heard of bribing judges, lawyers and jurors, but never bribing victims! It's called a private settlement, not a bribe!

Naoki said. "There is still half a month until the next exam. As long as you wake up early and study hard, you will have no trouble passing the exam."

Ichika said with a smile, "In the morning it's too cold, and if I wake up early, my body will freeze."

"I'm not listening, I'm not listening." Ichika sent an emoji with her hands over her ears, "Anyway, Asakawa-kun is the mastermind and must be held accountable."

As the class bell rang, Naoki turned off his cell phone, not intending to take any responsibility at all.

A new morning started like this, and the day passed in the blink of an eye.

After school in the afternoon, class time.

Ichika and Nino are absent, Miku is missing, Yotsuba wants to help out at the athletics club, and there's only one left, Itsuki. Naoki immediately finished the lesson, then walked out of the classroom and walked towards the park around the corner.

The subtle feeling of being spied on appeared again.
