Sawako finds her secret

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Naoki asked.

"I can't sleep." Nino hummed and sat up, "Ichika is too much, she watches horror movies because she doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, find a new horror movie, and ask me which one I like let's go and watch together…"

Thinking of the blank and blurry face on the phone just now, Nino only felt chills all over his body, and quickly sat down in the kotatsu:

"People who watch horror movies at night are all idiots."

"That's not necessarily true, there are always people in the world who are brave and like to watch horror movies at night." Naoki countered, "There's only one thing everyone screams at night. It's too scary."

"Hah?" Nino looked curious, "What is that?"

"It's very simple." Naoki told the truth, "Delicious food."

"Are you an idiot?" Nino said. "How terrible the food is."

"There's no reason to say it." Naoki's expression was calm "If you don't believe me, you can use Itsuki as an experiment."

"Just try it."

Nino pulled out his cell phone, but instead of looking for Itsuki alone, she went straight into the Nakano family group, tapped the screen with a quick finger, and edited the message.

The phone vibrates slightly.

Naoki took out his cellphone, it was a message from Nino just now.

"Itsuki, are you sleeping?"

After a while, Itsuki replied to the message: "Not yet, just lie down after writing the test questions."

Yotsuba: "Nino, why are you late texting?"

Nino was surprised: "Yotsuba hasn't slept today?"

Yotsuba: "I was just about to fall asleep, Nino texted and woke up."

Miku: "Bubbling..."

Nino: "Idiot Asakawa said that there is something that everyone is afraid to watch at night. I couldn't believe it, so I wanted to try it."

Itsuki makes a curious expression: "What is that?"

Yotsuba: "Asakawa-san isn't sleeping either?"

Naoki edited the message: "Nino won't let me sleep."

"Why don't I let you sleep?" Nino glared.

"What did you say?"

Naoki stretched out his hand to hold Nino's leg and squeezed it lightly.

The kotatsu is square, not very big. After lying down, Naoki can only entangle Nino's limbs inside!

Itsuki: "It's getting late, Nino didn't post any horrible photos!"

It was followed by three warnings.

Ichika: "I just wanted to post it."

Miku: "Please don't."

Yotsuba: "Please don't."

"Don't worry." Nino texted "I'm not going to be like Ichika, I only know how to use scary pictures to scare people."

Nino looked at Naoki and whispered "Where is the picture you want to send?"

Naoki said speechlessly: "Didn't you send it?"

"Where can I find pictures in a moment." Nino complained, "You have to have it."

"Is that true." Naoki opened the cloud disk "Then I'm coming?"

"Wait a minute, let me see what it is."

Nino bowed.

Then...

Can't see clearly.

Nino has myopic eyes, I don't know the exact degree. After all there is no difference between a man and a woman 10 meters away. She usually wears contact lenses when she goes out.

"Very complicated."

Nino muttered, changed positions, got up and sat beside Naoki, and finally saw what was in the photo clearly.

"Actually this kind of thing?" Nino was surprised, "No wonder you want to use Itsuki as an experiment, and Itsuki definitely can't stand it."

At the same time.

In the Nakano family group.

Itsuki pressed: "Nino, why did you suddenly stop talking?"

"It will be fine soon." Nino looked at Naoki with a mischievous smile on his face "Send me the picture and I'll bully Itsuki."

Naoki paused: "What about protecting everyone?"

"The bastard who wants to open the harem, don't talk!"

Naoki passes the drawing to Nino.

Nino is complacent: "I'm in, everyone bears it."

Miku disliked: "...Don't use big electric eel lines."

"Just ask if you don't understand." Yotsuba was curious, "What is a Canadian Electric Eel?"

"It is nothing." Ichigo, "I don't know."

"Everyone calm down, I'll start."

Nino selects an image and clicks send.

In the Nakano family chat group, a gif animation appeared.

Under the dim light, the fat and thin wagyu beef was roasting on the iron plate, and there was a sizzling sound from the collision of the oil and charcoal flames.

Itsuki: "Why are you suddenly posting this kind of thing!"

Yotsuba: "Nino is too much, deliberately teasing people."

Miku: "Too much."

"Any other."

Nino's lips lifted upwards, showing a satisfied smile, and continued to send the gif.

Steamed eel rice.

Roasted bird with greasy green onions.

The cola chicken wings vibrate in the broth.

There is also Mapo tofu which is red and bright in color, which is very attractive.

A deck of cards is played, and one that Nino manages to arouse public outrage.

Itsuki: "It's too much, Nino is too much, I'm really hungry, I'll have the barbecue buffet tomorrow."

Yotsuba: "I'm hungry."

Miku: "I'm hungry too."

Ichika: "Shall we go out for dinner together?"

Naoki: "Don't stay out too late, just eat the meat buns."

Itsuki : Bullied me again!

Nino slaughtered his four sides, suddenly covered his stomach and stared at Naoki: "...I'm also a little hungry, I really shouldn't see this kind of thing at night, it's too scary."

Naoki thought for a moment and said, "It's too late to go out now, why don't you go to the dream world to eat?"

"Hah?" Nino suddenly realized, "You can also go to the dream world, by the way."

She can eat whatever she wants without worrying about gaining weight. This is the best way to enjoy delicious food.

"Itsuki and the others cannot leave." Naoki said "The distance is too far, you and Ichika are fine."

Nino urged: "Then hurry up."

"Don't worry." Naoki said unhurriedly, "The subconscious dream world will be greatly distorted, and messy monsters will appear from time to time."

"I know." Nino recalls, "A zombie crisis broke out at school, everyone ran away together. It is a flower dream. Miku is the shogunate in Kamakura. Itsuki turned into a Magical Girl…"

The dream world adventure memory is vivid, and Nino still remembers it vividly after all this time.

"That's why I choose lucid dreams, so I don't want to be chased by monsters in my dreams."

Naoki reminds: "Clear dreams require a special method to open them."

"In what way?"

"Here."

"It always feels like you are uncomfortable..."

Nino came in complaining.

Naoki stretched out his arms and embraced her, knowing that she dared to come over with no good intentions. Nino's vigilance is too low!

A fiery touch quickly came from the cold lips, Nino opened his eyes wide, and his azure blue eyes shone like a cat in the moonlight.

"Is this a special way you say?"

"Correctly."

"No wonder Itsuki hesitates every time she wants to enter the dream world… You secretly bully Itsuki!"

....

The next day.

"Nino." A familiar voice rang in my ear, "Wake up."

Nino opened his eyes in a daze, staring at the ceiling above his head in a daze.

The dream world's memory is too real, and it is easy for people to feel a trance.

"Ichika?"

Nino's gaze fell on the girl who was bending down to look at her, Nino suddenly opened his eyes and said in disbelief "Are you really Ichika?!"

Ichika winked and said in a confused tone, "Who else if not me?"

"You actually got up early, and you still call me to get up." Nino covered his forehead, "No way, this is a dream, everything in front of me must be a dream."

Ichika stretched out his hand and gently tugged Nino's ear: "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts."

"It wasn't a dream."

Ichika said with a smile: "It's 6.30 am, Asakawa-kun just woke me up, and he's cooking now... Then Nino came out of the room last night, why didn't you come back all night?"

"It's not all because of you." Nino sat down, holding his forehead, "If you don't let me see a horror movie poster, I won't go."

Ichika replied: "Nino who sends delicious food in the middle of the night, obviously more excessive."

"It's literally over 6.30am." Nino glanced at the time and stared at Ichika in disbelief "You really woke up so early?"

"I am hungry." Ichika said as usual "Nino posted so many redundant pictures and thought about it all night, so I woke up at dawn."

So that's the fault?

Nino was suspicious.

Wrong.

Those who would be fooled by the food were only Itsuki.

Ichika wouldn't get up early over trivial things like that. If she really couldn't stand hunger, she wouldn't wake up at 1pm!

"What method did the stupid Asakawa use to wake you up?" Nino quickly cleared his mind.

"It uses a special method." Ichika's expression was serious "Asakawa-kun said it, it must be kept a secret."

Hearing the special method, Nino's eyes twitched slightly, and she remembered the way she entered the lucid dream last night.

Is that kind of thing?

Impossible.

When she wakes up and doesn't brush his teeth, how can anyone get up in the morning and kiss her?

"Hatred."

Nino became even more suspicious.

Could it be that she woke up early worrying about peeping?

"Nino what did you do with Asakawa-kun last night?"

Nino didn't allow herself to show a look of guilt: "I didn't do anything."

"The kotatsu is terrible, I just wanted to lie down and close my eyes for a bit, but I accidentally fell asleep."

"So." Ichika nodded lightly, her tone soft, "Why does Nino have..."

Nino was shocked and hurriedly covered his neck.

Could it be that stupid Asakawa planted hickey marks last night?

Nino's face turned red, and for a moment, she was dying of embarrassment.

"It..."

"Ah, I saw wrong." Ichika stood up, "I thought Nino had been bitten by a mosquito, but it was dazzling, Nino had nothing on his neck."

Nino breathed a sigh of relief and collected herself.

Naoki didn't kiss her neck last night, of course there would be nothing!

So is Ichika really starving, or is she deceiving herself on purpose?

Naoki came out of the kitchen: "You two wash your faces and brush your teeth, it's time to eat."

"I know." Ichika stood in front of Nino, "Nino, put on your clothes, you watch out for Asakawa-kun's beast."

....

Breakfast.

Naoki, Ichika and Nino go to school.

Without delay this late stage bedridden patient, the other three girls finally stopped late, and the Quintuplets just met at the school gate.

"That's Ichika."

The Yotsuba's voice floated under the cold wind.

"Good morning all." Ichika smiled and waved.

"Nino." Itsuki came in aggressively "Why did you post those things last night?"

"That..." Nino then decided to betray Naoki, "Those are all the pictures sent to me by the stupid Asakawa, I'm just a porter."

Itsuki's eyes turned and looked at Naoki, "That's right."

Naoki didn't explain, "Nino told it as it is."

Itsuki didn't really care.

Naoki heard the words and looked at Yotsuba: "Does Yotsuba feel afraid?"

Yotsuba nodded quickly: "It's really scary."

"Really scary." Ichika's expression was serious, "Nino has mastered a terrible magic that makes people unable to sleep and must be sealed."

...

The Quintuplets walked into school chatting, rarely getting up early, as if the sun were brighter.

"I'm going to the field first."

Yotsuba waved her hand and ran towards the field.

There was still a match to come, so Yotsuba's training continued.

The other girls disperse one after another, and Naoki goes to the Chemistry club's activity room.

Just walking to the door, Naoki bumped into Sekijou.

"Good morning."

Naoki says hello.

"Ssst-"

Sekijou made a gesture not to speak, stretched out his hand and pointed at a corner, and whispered, "Asakawa, come with me."

Naoki followed curiously.

The two walked to a corner, Sekijou's expression serious: "Rizu-san is wrong."

Naoki was surprised: "What did you say?"

"Rizu-san was doing his math homework just now." Sekijou whispered "It turned out to be a very simple question, she actually…"

Naoki: "Was that a typo?"

"That's right." Sekijou shook his head, "But she actually wrote the formula in that manuscript!"

Writing formulas on manuscript paper when solving math problems is normal!

But Ogata is not normal.

As a science genius girl, she can see the answers to common questions at a glance, and doesn't need to list formulas at all.

"It's actually been a long time since I discovered that something was wrong with Rizu-san." Sekijou took a deep breath, "There are two or three days a month when she falls asleep in math class, and she rushes about with homework. Sensei asked the question, she was very confused, and she was careful in the physics experiment class. She used to dare to fight cockroaches, but she was scared and screamed that day…"

Stop your voyeurism now! How long did it take to observe so many anomalies!

"Asakawa." Sekijou clasped his hands and glanced left and right, "Do you think Rizu-san is possessed by a ghost?"

Sorry, it was just a body swap with Furuhashi.

"There are no ghosts in this world." Naoki shook his head.

"Who said no?" Sekijou paled, "I've seen that before.
