No one's home, come here...

"...Why did it suddenly stop?"

Nino's eyes blurred, and she opened them in confusion.

Naoki suddenly sat up straight, and reached out to help Nino sort out his pajamas: "Miku is here."

"Eh?"

Nino was taken aback, then heard footsteps walking outside the door, quickly turned his face to the side, and looked at the wall.

The Quintuplets are usually at home and don't have the habit of knocking on doors.

Miku pushed the door and entered: "How?"

Nino looked at the wall, his hair covering his cheeks to prevent herself from showing his flaws, if Miku saw the red on her face, she would definitely hesitate: "Didn't I tell you, don't tell Asakawa you fool? Why let him come?"

"I didn't say it, Yotsuba asked for it." Miku said, "Everyone decided to go to Kamakura this weekend. If your feet are bad, you can only stay."

Nino was surprised: "What are you going to do in Kamakura?"

Naoki explained: "Mrs. Kuwahara lives in Kamakura now, so we plan to go over the weekend and help Hanako find her mother."

"It feels like the little tadpoles are looking for their mother..." Nino muttered, "By the way, when I was little at grandpa's house, Miku liked to pet the tadpoles..."

"Do not say that." Miku interrupted Nino.

Naoki said: "I already know the end."

Many people raise tadpoles when they are young, but most tadpoles turn into frogs as they grow up.

They hoped that the little tadpole would grow up quickly, and finally found that the tadpole had turned into a frog, and the smile on its face would definitely fade day by day!

Miku said angrily, "Ichika said that she hasn't been to the hot springs for a long time, and only went to Kamakura to soak in the hot springs for a day. You can ask the reckless Asakawa to heal you."

"Of course I go, I will be bored at home alone?"

Nino made a quick choice.

Unlike Miku who can stay home all day and rest every weekend, Nino likes shopping with friends or on shopping trips.

Naoki nodded and said: "Then stretch your legs."

"Humph."

Nino snorted under his breath and stretched out his right leg that had accidentally twisted in the bathroom yesterday, his skin dazzling in the afternoon sun.

Seeing Naoki holding Nino's calf, Miku turned around and walked out: "I'm going out first."

As the door closed, Nino finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned around, his face flushed as if it had been burned.

"Stupid Asakawa, why didn't you tell me earlier, I was almost discovered by Miku just now!"

"Sorry." Naoki sincerely apologized, "I'll sneak in next time."

"You're apologizing for the wrong reasons!"

Nino wanted to bite when she heard that. Naoki has completely evolved into the carnivorous type. If it wasn't for Miku just now, she even wanted to go further, it would be too much.

Using Pain Absorption to heal Nino's sprained right leg, Naoki is quickly kicked out of the room by a still embarrassed Nino.

Walking downstairs, Naoki happens to meet Ichika and Itsuki back.

"I'm back."

Itsuki walked to the entrance and saw Naoki. "Asakawa-san hasn't come back yet?"

aoki said: "It's just over, I'll be back."

"Slowly, the sky is getting dark." Ichika untied the towel and guessed, "Could it be that Asakawa-kun and Nino did something strange?"

"strange things..."

Itsuki blinked, and his face quickly turned red.

Why are you blushing! In the past, there were only meat buns and head study, but now there are even stranger things!

"Sorry." Naoki looked at Miku "Actually, I'm always with Miku."

"Not." Miku puffed out her cheeks and leaned in closer "It's just a gashapon."

"It turned out to be a gashapon." Itsuki heaved a sigh of relief, "Miku caught so many gashapon, I feel like I could open a gashapon museum."

Nino pushed open the door and walked downstairs in his pajamas:

"All of you are back?"

"The Yotsuba haven't returned yet." Itsuki looked up, "There's still training today."

"She is busy practicing every day. She goes to school before dawn in the morning, and she can only come back when it is dark." Nino put his hand on his chest and complained, "Why do I feel that sports clubs are more difficult than social animals."

Naoki shrugged and said:

"If office workers are given the chance to start all over again, nine times out of ten would be willing to switch identities with Yotsuba."

The sports clubs in high school are indeed the most difficult, but in the voting campaign launched on the Internet, the most unforgettable things in high school are the days when the sports clubs sweat and train hard together for the same competition goal. Work together, work hard together, such a life is full and meaningful.

In the past, Nino wanted Yotsuba to resign from the club, because studying and practicing would take a lot of time, making Yotsuba less rested.

"Asakawa-kun is right." Ichika nodded in agreement "I read a survey on the Internet, saying that the thing a middle-aged uncle wants most in his next life is to become a high school girl."

Enough, life is about going back to high school, not turning into a high school girl!

After talking for a while, Naoki saw the sky was getting dark, and quickly said:

"I will be back."

"Are you leaving so soon?" Ichika continued, "It's been a while since I went to see mother in the dream world together. Why isn't Asakawa-kun staying the night?"

Itsuki was happily eating the meat buns, and when she heard Ichika's words, she suddenly coughed. Just as she was about to speak, Nino had already taken the lead and said:

"Not."

"Eh?"

Itsuki looked at Nino in surprise.

Ichika tilted her head to look: "Why did Nino say no?"

Since entering dreamland meant that Itsuki would be bullied by Naoki, it's no wonder whenever he stayed the night before, Itsuki slept beside him.

Nino glares at Naoki: "What if the stupid Asakawa bullies Itsuki?"

Itsuki blinked, lightning flashed through his mind, and his face quickly turned red.

Nino knows it!

If she wants to enter the dream world while awake, she has to kiss, and Nino knows this!

"Hah?" Ichika leaned back on the couch, her tone confused, "Why is Itsuki blushing?"

Itsuki quickly turned his head away: "Just now, I choked on the meat bun just now."

Only Miku drank tea silently without speaking.

Knowing why Itsuki's face turned red, Ichika deliberately asked this question.

Ichika is a complete black belly.

"We're going to Kamakura the day after tomorrow, so there's no rush to see mother for now." Itsuki blushed, and hesitantly said, "Besides, the weather is so cold, it's not suitable for sleeping on the floor… Asakawa-san should go back."

If Nino didn't know, maybe she would have thought about it, now that Nino knows... How could she agree!

Naoki nodded, got up and said goodbye: "I'll be back."

"Don't worry." Ichika said with a smile "Asakawa-kun will be back after dinner?"

Saying that after eating, it is clear that want people to cook!

"Don't eat, goodbye."

Naoki flatly refuses, and leaves with his school bag, ready to head back to his apartment.

Today, he wasn't planning on going to Sekijou's apartment. He had been there for three days straight, and was going to Kamakura on the weekend. Whether it's Furuhashi or Ogata, they have to go home.

....

Immediately return to the apartment.

Naoki pushed open the door and walked to the entrance. There had been no one for three days, and the apartment always felt very quiet.

Walking to the balcony, Naoki took off the clothes hanging on the balcony to dry, and when he came back, he felt the phone vibrate gently.

Takes out the phone and sees that it is actually a message from Mafuyu.

"You are back?"

Naoki replied to the message: "Just got back."

"I just heard someone taking clothes... Come here."

Naoki put down his cell phone, turned around to exit, and knocked on Mafuyu's door.

The door quickly opened a crack, and Mafuyu looked out from behind the door. After confirming that it was Naoki, she removed the anti-theft chain and said, "Come in."

Naoki walked to the entrance, glanced at the apartment, and quickly understood what Mafuyu had called him to come over.

Messy room, like just had a thief, what else but cleaning!

"Sensei." Naoki said speechlessly "A thief entered the room?"

"Not." Mafuyu was a little embarrassed, "The weather is cold, I suddenly remembered the scarf I liked last year, I wanted to find it, and then... it's been like this."

Naoki took a piece of clothing and started folding it, his eyes fixed on Mafuyu: "Isn't it cold to wear so little?"

After returning home, Mafuyu changed his uniform into a T-shirt from his high school days again.

"Not cold." Mafuyu shook his head, "There is thermal underwear inside."

"Why don't you buy a kotatsu?"

"I've always wanted to buy one." Mafuyu said softly, "But I've been busy for a while, so I don't have time to go to the supermarket to buy kotatsu."

Naoki said "I have a kotatsu in my room. Do you want it...

Mafuyu's face condensed, and she said angrily: "No."

Sleeping with students in kotatsu is too bad!

"Then I'll clean up the room." Naoki continued packing his clothes "Sensei, go and make me a cup of tea."

"Um."

Mafuyu nodded lightly and agreed.

She couldn't clean the room, she couldn't cook, so she could only make a cup of tea.

....

After a while.

The whole apartment has been renovated.

"Very fast?" Mafuyu was shocked.

Naoki picked up the teacup and took a sip of green tea: "I've cleaned the room many times, and I'm more familiar with room storage than sensei."

Mafuyu turned his face: "Quickly drink tea, you can come back after drinking tea."

"Do not go." Naoki continued drinking the tea "I've been running around for the past few days, my whole body hurts, and I need a knee pillow."

Mafuyu became angry: "No knee pads."

"My ears itch a little." Naoki stepped back and asked, "Sensei, help me clean my ears."

Mafuyu hesitated for a moment, "I'll go get the equipment."

After a while.

Seeing Naoki lying comfortably on his lap, Mafuyu's face condensed slightly: "How about cleaning your ears instead?"

"It is true that you cleaned your ears." Naoki confidently said, "This pose is more suitable."

...

After enjoying Mafuyu's lap pillow and ear cleaning service, and watching TV episodes together, Naoki is quickly shooed out of the room.

Back at his apartment, Naoki sits down in the kotatsu to read a book, but falls asleep after a while, saying that kotatsu are mankind's greatest natural enemy in winter, it is not an exaggeration.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, the phone suddenly vibrated.

"Hah? Sawako?"

Naoki picked up the phone, and it was actually a message from Sekijou.

"Asakawa, what are you doing?"

"Reading in the kotatsu." Naoki replied, "What is it?"

"That..." Sekijou stuttered "Both Furuhashi-san and Rizu-san went home, I was the only one left in the apartment, and then there was a cat meowing outside the window, was that dangerous?"

Naoki was confused: "Where is the danger?"

"It is said that cats are messengers from the underworld." Sekijou texted "The cat is barking at the window, does that mean it wants to take Hanako-chan?"

Cats are messengers of the underworld, that's ancient Egyptian culture!

Naoki: "What do you want to do?"

Sekijou: "I can't see Hanako-chan right now, and I don't know what's going on, so I'm a little worried…"

Naoki quickly understood.

Sekijou was clearly frightened and scaring himself.

But if you think about it carefully, it's understandable. Visible ghosts and invisible ghosts are, of course, two different things. Besides, Furuhashi and Ogata weren't there, and Sekijou was home alone, and it was normal for people to mutter in their hearts.

Naoki pondered: "I'll add a buff to you?"

Sekijou quickly texts: "Then I'll trouble you."

Sure enough, this was his real goal!

"I'm getting dressed." Naoki sighed and exited the kotatsu "Wait for me to go."

...

20 minutes later.

Naoki came to Sekijou's apartment door, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

There were footsteps coming from behind the door Sekijou looked out of cat eyes, saw Naoki, and quickly opened the door: "Come in."

"It's cold outside?" Sekijou turned around and said, "I'll pour you a cup of tea first."

The Sekijou quickly poured a cup of tea, sat beside Naoki, and said:

"Has Hanako-chan appeared yet?"

Naoki turned his head and looked at the corner: "Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

Sekijou couldn't help but say: "You answered already, okay?"

"Okay." Naoki said honestly "Hanako saw you."

Sekijou's ponytail hair shook slightly nervously.

Even though she knew it was just a little girl, but she couldn't see her, she couldn't touch her, and she had always been a little afraid of being alone.

"Sigh..." Sekijou let out a light sigh and said quickly, "Give me a buff now."

As long as she could see, she would not be afraid.

Sekijou's face turned red: "Let's go to the bathroom."

"Furuhashi and Ogata aren't here today." Naoki was speechless.

There were only two people in the entire apartment, so no need to cover up!

Going to the bathroom is a bit unnecessary. She quickly lifted her chin slightly and whispered with a flushed face, "Come on."
