After leaving Nakano's house, they returned to their respective rooms to rest.
After confirming that Rui and Hina entered the living room together, Shinichi quietly left the room and left the house.
Leaning against the door panel, and opening the group chat.
What he wanted to say now could not be heard by Rui.
In order to avoid all kinds of bloody accidents, he had made sufficient preparations and investigations in advance.
After looking around carefully one last time, Line's video call happened to be connected. Five similar but different beautiful faces appeared on the screen, and five pairs of bright blue eyes were looking at him.
The momentary visual impact made Shinichi astonished.
"What? Let's see your stupid face as soon as the call connects."
Nino immediately scoffed.
Before Shinichi could answer, Ichika looked away and gave him a grin.
"Shinichi-kun~ Did you feel better earlier? How does it feel to be thrown on the sofa by four beautiful girls at once? Isn't it so soft and big~"
As soon as Shinichi opened his mouth to answer, the other three's faces turned red. They covered their mouths and huddled in front of the screen.
Nino: "Don't talk! Don't answer either!"
Miku: "I agree. After all, Ichika and Nino ran faster. I was left behind and not touched much…"
Itsuki: "Me too..."
Nino and Miku: "You're the one who's touched!"
Itsuki: "Ugh, you guys teamed up against me again... It really was just an accident. Asada-kun thinks so too…"
"That..."
As a non-participant, Yotsuba shrank in the corner of the screen and didn't show any presence, but the other sisters didn't care if she was messing around there.
Then, with a smile on she face and an enthusiastic voice, she said hello.
"Asada-san——! Hahaha, did you see it? I completed the task perfectly!"
Shinichi ignored the four people and praised her.
"Amazing and well done acting."
"Ehehe~" Yotsuba immediately scratched her head in embarrassment.
"No, what kind of acting is hiding on the second floor and eavesdropping?"
Nino scolds Shinichi for being intentionally biased.
"Let's stop here to reminisce about the past. I might be discovered by Rui at any time, so I will make my story short." Shinichi said seriously.
Yotsuba was amazed: "Oh~ I feel like a spy..."
"After all, Shinichi-kun is very good at ventriloquism," Ichika hid a smile, and then said with a serious expression, "Then General Shinichi, tell me quickly what you want to report."
This time Miku looked at him with sparkling eyes: "I want to listen to the Warring States version!"
Shinichi's mouth twitched.
"I want to apologize and say thank you for what happened before. Thanks to everyone's help, I can now get through this situation safely. My gratitude cannot be expressed in words, and I also ask the girls to enjoy the biscuits I brought."
*👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻*
"Thank you, Shinichi."
Miku clapped her hands, and a smile on her lips.
Nino brought her face closer to the cell phone supported by the selfie stick, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked a little unhappy.
"Sorry, are you just saying this to Miku, or are you saying it to those of us who have worked hard to stage this drama?"
"Of course it's everyone."
Facing the interrogation, Shinichi's expression straightened his cell phone screen and said: "Ichika's acting is very expressive, but the timing is too deliberate, and fortunately Rui is also not very smart, so she doesn't know."
"There's nothing wrong with Nino, even though her performance was quite satisfying, she controlled the overall atmosphere well."
"Miku's expression is surprisingly scary, and is very suitable for emotional enhancement... Don't be angry, it has nothing to do with appearance."
"Yotsuba... Well hidden."
" Even though Itsuki is inflexible in memorizing lines, it fits her character perfectly, and it keeps Rui from getting suspicious, so she does it well."
"Even though it is a tough task for me to ask you to do this kind of thing, it is a bit unreasonable from a logical perspective, but you still have no complaints at all and have helped me wholeheartedly…"
Shinichi lowered his head.
"Thank you very much, and I apologize for making things difficult for you."
"…"
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
Shinichi looked at the girls on the other side.
Ichika: "You apologized so sincerely, there's nothing we can say~"
Nino: "Huh, remember not to do this next time. Such a twisted thing is simply unbearable, and only you can think of it."
Miku: "It's okay... Shinichi has done a lot for us in the past, but compared to now, this is nothing."
Yotsuba: "Yeah, Asada-san is too blunt! If you still need help with anything, just leave it to us! We all support you!"
"After all, you're not doing this just for yourself."
Itsuki looked straight at him, with a gentle curve of her lips.
"Even though his ideas are clumsy, he can still do what he can for others and try his best... This is what I admire and admire about Asada-kun"
"So please raise your head, you have nothing to apologize for. Even if you did, it shouldn't happen to us."
Shinichi saw different smiles on the five people's faces and a hint of emotion in their brown eyes.
"Huuu..."
He exhaled, but he showed relief. He leaned against the door panel, looking more relaxed.
"I understand."
"Just that? It's not that simple, right?"
Ichika looked at him with a "What are you talking about?"
She held her palms on the sides of her face, her smile was perfect, and she spoke meaningfully.
"You showed your affection for your cousin in front of us, and even kissed him three times. Don't you think I will forget these things?"
"Hmph!" Nino pouted and turned around unhappily, "Me too, I haven't forgiven you! You haven't thought about how uncomfortable I will be when I hear this. Obviously I didn't feel that way at the time..."
Miku puffed out her cheeks and with a gloomy expression: "I've never done this before... Shinichi is guilty, seppuku."
"...Ugh."
Yotsuba hesitated, her eyes were complicated, and in the end she didn't say anything.
The ahoge hair on Itsuki's head swayed, showing an expression about to start preaching.
"Even though the concept of kissing is becoming more and more frivolous in modern times, Asada-kun, there are many people around you who are attracted to the opposite sex. If you don't pay attention to your own behavior and passively flirt with women, you will definitely be called a bastard in the end."
Listening to their complaints and criticism, Shinichi was helpless.
Then, feeling refreshed, he pressed the end call button.
"Okay, let's go back."
It's time to see the cousin who is having trouble at the moment.
