Prelude to Night Assault

"I'm back."

Itsuki pushed the door open and entered the house.

Naoki didn't make a sound, put on his sandals, walked through the entrance, and saw Miku sitting on the sofa playing with her cell phone at a glance. Walking behind Miku, Naoki looked at the phone and found that Miku was seriously watching a video on Niconico.

Since becoming the owner of a funny video streamer, Miku has started to study actively, and it turns out that interest is her best teacher.

Itsuki walked over with a bag of oranges she had just bought, sat down next to Miku, turned her head and said:

"Asakawa-san, eat an orange."

"Eh?"

Miku raised her head in surprise when she heard the movement, and quickly turned around. After seeing Naoki, her face quickly turned red:

"Reckless Asakawa, why are you here?"

Naoki said firmly: "I want to see Miku."

"Liar." Miku puffed her cheeks, "We still eat together at the cafeteria during the day."

"It's been half a month since I last saw mother." Itsuki peeled an orange, "Today I went to burn incense for my mother with Asakawa-san, and it just so happens that tomorrow is the weekend. So I called Asakawa-san to go to the dream world together at night to see mom."

"Where are Nino and the others?" Itsuki asked curiously, "Why are you the only one in the house?"

"Nino and Yotsuba went to the supermarket to buy ingredients, and Ichika went to shoot a commercial. I don't know when they'll be back."

Miku took a breath and quickly calmed down.

Wait.

Nothing to be ashamed of.

Bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, living room, couch... as the saying goes, nothing to be ashamed of.

Naoki sat next to Miku, peeled an orange and handed it over: "Eat an orange."

"I do not want to eat."

Miku swiped her finger across the screen to move on to the next video.

The next second.

A very familiar face appeared in front of the three of them. Seeing the girl in the video, the temperature on Miku's face rose rapidly.

"I know, that's Tifa, one of the heroines in Final Fantasy." Itsuki had already started eating the fourth sugar, and said in a faint voice, "I've often seen that Tifa is one of the leaders in the 3D area, what do you mean by that? Do you know?"

"...I have no idea."

Miku turned her head to deny it.

Naoki ate his orange "Miku said she doesn't know, so I don't know either."

"Strange..." Itsuki tilted his head and said, "I always felt like you two were hiding something from me."

We don't hide it from you but you are too slow, you are just a Heroine of a romcom series.

Naoki has to send Miku's videotape one day before Itsuki finds out that he has been bullied by Miku so many times!

"Eat your oranges." Naoki handed the orange to Itsuki's mouth, "Don't think too much."

While feeding Itsuki, Naoki turned to look at Miku, and said meaningfully:

"It's been a long time since I played Warring States Generals game. Let's go to your room to play a game?"

"I refuse."

Miku leaned back slightly, her face blushed and pulled, "...Nino and the others will be back soon, time isn't enough, right?"

"It's just playing computer games, what difference does it make if Nino comes back?" Naoki pretended to be confused.

"Reckless Asakawa!" Miku raised her right foot and stomped on it quietly, "Guilty, Harakiri!"

The game ended up not being played.

Miku is always worried that Naoki won't be able to control himself, on the way he will turn into a beast and turn into a carnivore... In order to avoid being caught by Nino, she firmly refuses.

The three of them were sitting on the sofa, watching TV and eating oranges at the same time.

After a while.

The bedroom door was pushed open, and Nino and Yotsuba entered with the ingredients.

"I'm back." Yotsuba whispered, and quickly saw Naoki in the living room, "Asakawa-san."

"Stupid Asakawa?" Nino looked up "What are you doing here?"

Naoki said: "Then I have to ask Itsuki."

After listening to Itsuki's explanation, Nino took it for granted that, every ten days of the month, she would always go to see the mother in her dreams.

Yotsuba couldn't help staring at Miku secretly, that morning in the bathroom...

Miku happened to look up.

The four eyes face each other.

The two quickly looked away.

There are many unspeakable secrets in the world, and the same is true between sisters.

"Stupid Asakawa, you came just in time." Nino sat down on the sofa, looking for a comfortable position, "I'll leave the dinner to you."

"No problem." Naoki didn't dodge: "When will Ichika come back?"

"I sent a message to ask..." Nino took out her phone and said quickly, "Ichika said that the commercial has been filmed and is on the way back."

"It's almost time." Naoki got up and walked towards the kitchen, walked to the kitchen door, turned his head and said, "Yotsuba is here to help."

Nino heard those words, tilted her head doubtfully, and looked at the Yotsuba.

Yotsuba loves helping others so much, why hasn't she moved at all today?

"I coming." Seeing that something was wrong with the Yotsuba, she hurriedly got up and ran towards Naoki, "...I just ate an orange, and now I'm done."

Both come to kitchen.

Naoki looked at Yotsuba while checking the ingredients, and said in a low voice:

"Why has Yotsuba been avoiding me the past few days?"

"I'm not running away from you." Yotsuba said guiltily.

Thinking of Naoki's complete evolution from omnivore to carnivore, Yotsuba was a little nervous.

It was fine alone, Yotsuba was worried that if Naoki was interested, he would have to play a three person game.

After all, three people together, absolutely not allowed!

The food isn't ready yet, so Ichika rushes back. Upon seeing Naoki in the kitchen, her eyes immediately lit up, she entered the kitchen quietly, then stretched her arms in front of Yotsuba, hugging Naoki's neck.

Yotsuba ":😐"

I'm still by your side, you have to restrain yourself when making out!

"It's only been two or three days, and Asakawa-kun can't take it anymore?"

Ichika turned to look at Yotsuba, and said with a smile, "Yotsuba's physical strength seems pretty good."

"Remove the appearance." Naoki looked at Yotsuba and commented, "Yotsuba's physical strength is indeed super good."

Yotsuba took half a step back, and wanted to run away: "...You guys are busy, I'll head out first."

"Are we bullying Yotsuba too much?" Ichika pondered.

"That's right." Naoki said "Then you won't bully her anymore?"

"Hmm..." Ichika suddenly smiled happily, "Of course, I still want to bully Yotsuba."

Yotsuba: "😐"

This kind of words can be said, Ichika is really a real devil, no wonder she dared to do anything in a messy dream.

After dinner, it was time for the students to sit next.

Finished homework for two days on the weekend together, and read the book again, and it was past 10 p.m.

"I'll take the blanket." Itsuki stood up, and prepared to go upstairs.

"Don't be too troublesome." Naoki said, "I've gotten stronger these days, and I can manage to fall asleep without co-sleeping at night."

"So..." Naoki said and looked at Miku, "I can sleep in Miku's room."
