Chapter 142 ⟴ No, This Is The Correct Size!

"Woo-hoo, I finally got excellent grades in all liberal arts subjects! My science grades are improving much faster than before! Though they still can't compare to Rizu-san's science grades."

For Rizu, what limited her science grades wasn't knowledge, but rather the maximum score possible on the tests — she could only get full marks.

Such extraordinary talent for sciences made the Nakano quintuplets understand the frustration of Sōbu High's administration — they were completely wasting her natural gifts.

If they had even 1% of Rizu's science aptitude, improving their own grades wouldn't be such a struggle.

'But... if my grades weren't so hard to improve, I wouldn't have found Daiki-kun's shortcut! Finally, I won't have to study anymore.'

Yotsuba flopped onto the sofa and stretched lazily, imagining how she'd just need to lie quietly in bed from now on.

Not only could she improve her physical abilities without side effects, but she could also skip the arduous process of studying by having knowledge directly implanted in her brain.

With such a comfortable and effortless way of learning, who would still painfully pore over books?

As for attending class... there was no need to pay attention at all.

"At my current pace, getting knowledge implants from Daiki-kun once a week will keep my grades steadily in the top ranks." Thinking about this wonderful arrangement, Yotsuba couldn't help but giggle secretly to herself.

Little did she know that suspicious glances from Itsuki and the others had fallen on her — as people who had also taken secret tutoring, how could they not notice?

Moreover, Nino keenly noticed the holes in Yotsuba's story — she remembered her saying she went jogging and hurried back.

However, who could explain why morning jogging would make her stomach appear swollen, as if filled with knowledge?

"Hmph, Yotsuba, how dare you deceive me! What's this about exercising? Is this what you call exercise? More like you went to attend the opening ceremony." Nino's teeth gritted audibly as anger flared in her heart.

Who would have thought that Yotsuba and Itsuki, the most obedient ones, would both do this?

She had been the first one, and now she had to catch up to Miku.

"Damn it!" Though seething with rage inside, she maintained a calm exterior.

Nino glanced at Miku — perhaps ignorance truly was bliss.

"Thank you everyone for letting me join the tutoring! My liberal arts grades are now consistently excellent. Though I still don't fully understand some character relationships, I'll use the foundation Daiki-kun taught me to find answers in the library."

Rizu packed up her belongings and bowed goodbye to Miku and the others.

Her image as a serious, bespectacled young girl made Miku and the others nod in approval. Throughout the entire tutoring process, she had been the most diligent.

If only the other sisters could be like Rizu, how wonderful that would be!

Nino, Itsuki, and the others exchanged glances, their eyes meeting briefly before they all lowered their heads with gloomy expressions.

"I'll take her home first, then come back."

Through the apartment's floor-to-ceiling windows, they could see it was pouring outside. According to the forecast, the rain would continue for some time.

A brief respite was expected around the middle of next month.

"Mm! Come back soon." Miku stood up quietly to adjust Daiki's collar, like a gentle and devoted wife seeing her husband off to work.

The others' expressions darkened further, but there was nothing they could do.

When no one was looking, Miku suddenly stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

Crystal-clear drops fell as Nino's fingers clenched tightly.

"I'll be going then."

Daiki's hand rested on Rizu's shoulder. Their figures vanished into thin air under the effect of the Spatial Transference Technique.

۞ Spatial Transference! ۞

The shy Miku kept her head down, trying to act as if what just happened was merely normal interaction between them.

Nino, who had been clenching her fists at the sight, suddenly relaxed them — after all, she had done even more outrageous things herself.

"Speaking of which, we should prepare some clothes for Daiki-kun. In this rainy weather, it won't be easy to dry clothes at home." Miku opened a shopping app and started browsing through various clothing items.

The wide selection left her unsure what to choose.

"Itsuki, what do you think about these styles?"

"Nino, give me some advice on what would suit Daiki-kun?"

"Ichika, don't you think this clothing size is too small?"

"Yotsuba, stop looking at grades! Once we find suitable clothes, I'll buy you some colored ribbons."

Unable to decide, Miku turned to her four sisters for help.

"Oh my, when you kissed him earlier, did you forget we were still here?" Ichika teased with a mischievous smile.

Feeling guilty, Miku's face turned red as she stammered, "Th-that's not..."

Nino casually brushed back her cherry-red hair and sat down without ceremony, "Hmph, Miku, you've finally found the right person this time."

When it came to Daiki's measurements, Nino knew them perfectly.

"Nino, what do you think of this outfit? It's quite trendy."

"The style is barely acceptable, but this set is too small for Daiki-kun. This one would be a better fit."

"Ichika, what about these pajamas? They should meet your comfort standards, right?"

"The material is high-end, but it lacks elasticity. For pajamas like these, the size needs to be exact — this one."

Miku stared blankly at her phone screen, an odd feeling settling in her heart. There were so many things she wanted to say but couldn't find the words.

After adding items to her cart, she turned to Itsuki, "What do you think about these everyday clothes for Daiki-kun?"

Itsuki leaned toward the phone screen, then shook her head seriously, "The waist is too loose — it needs to be more fitted."

Miku's expression nearly cracked as she finally understood why something had felt off about asking for their opinions.

This was her boyfriend — so why did they know his sizes better than she did?!

Their precise knowledge of his measurements left her feeling unsettled. As Daiki's official girlfriend, she needed to prove herself.

After a brief silence, she declared, "I think this underwear size would suit him."

She meant to select the largest size, but due to phone lag, accidentally chose a regular one.

Before Miku could cancel, Yotsuba laughed, "Hahaha, that's way too small! I think this size would barely fit."

She clicked the size Miku had originally intended to choose.

In her moment of triumph, Yotsuba caught her sister's death glare. Her smile froze.

"I... I mean... since we're not sure of the exact measurements, it's better to go larger. That leaves room for error. But Miku — how do you know Daiki-kun's size? You'd better explain yourself!"

Her attempt to turn the tables caught Miku off guard. At the questioning, all their identical faces turned bright red.

"That... that was just a guess..." Miku stammered, her face crimson.

Could she say she have measured it with her mouth and throat? Absolutely not!

Yotsuba quickly wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, desperate to change the subject.

That had been a close call!
