Chapter 40: Commando Ellen

"Hm? Did I do something wrong?"

Seeing the inexplicably fleeing Belle, Ellen asked Wise with some confusion. The latter, seeing this, was a bit helpless. It was clear that Wise now understood what Belle had been talking about just now. Honestly, I don't know what my sister is thinking about all day.

['Answer: Thinking about you, my dear Master!']

'...System, I don't need your input.'

Alright, saying any more about this was useless. Wise first handed the clothes in his hand to Ellen. "Ellen, go change into these first and see if they fit. I'll come out in a bit." As he spoke, Wise glanced at the bed in the room. Ellen, understanding, nodded.

After going into the bathroom, Ellen began to change her clothes. She had thought the skirt wouldn't fit. After all, as a Shark-person, she had a thick tail. Because of this, she always had to buy skirts separately. But she didn't expect Wise to have considered this as well, and he had specially chosen a longer skirt. What a considerate person.

[Ding! Ellen's favorability has increased by 5 points. Current favorability: 80. 400 Emotion Value obtained. Current Emotion Value: 7000.]

The increase in favorability was indeed a pleasant surprise, but Wise couldn't be bothered with that right now. He still had to soothe Belle's emotions.

"Belle, I'm sorry. I brought a girl home without asking your opinion, but it was really because of an accident." Wise said as he came to the bedside, then explained what had happened. Belle, hearing this, pouted and stuck her head out from under the blanket.

"Brother, you're such a big idiot..." That's not the only thing I care about! And am I that petty?

Belle was clearly still a little angry, but Wise's next action made her anger completely disappear.

...(Content Deleted)... (Honestly, why was this sentence flagged as a violation? I don't even get it.)

"I'm sorry, Belle. In the future, I'll definitely talk to you about things like this first. Get some rest now." After saying this, Wise turned and left the room directly. Belle, still on the bed, was stunned for a moment. Finally, she let out a disbelieving "Eh?", and then instantly transformed into a "Steam Princess," shyly pulling the blanket over herself again.

[Belle's emotions fluctuated violently. 1000 Emotion Value obtained. Current Emotion Value: 8000.]

From this, it was not difficult to see how much of an impact Wise's action had on Belle. At least, this was the most Emotion Value obtained from a single instance according to the system's prompts so far.

After leaving the room, Wise happened to run into Ellen coming out of the bathroom. She was holding her changed, dirty clothes in her hand.

"How is it? Does it fit okay?"

"Mmm, it's fine. It's just a little tight around the chest."

Hearing Ellen's words, Wise didn't have much of a solution. After all, Belle's figure really couldn't compare to Ellen's, so the underwear and clothes were somewhat ill-fitting.

Seeing that it was already very late, Ellen was preparing to go back first. Wise, seeing the clothes she was holding, thought it was a bit inconvenient. "Oh, right, it's not good to just carry these dirty clothes like that. Let me get a bag for you."

"Thank you. Also, I'll wash these clothes and return them later."

Wise didn't care too much about this. After all, Belle had only worn this outfit a few times after buying it before she stopped. And it was just something she bought on sale anyway, with no special meaning. If worse came to worse, he could just buy her a new one later.

Wise then got a bag for Ellen and let her put the clothes inside. But in the process, Wise noticed something strange. A pair of white panties with a cartoon shark pattern. This wouldn't have been anything special, but... if I remember correctly... (Content Deleted)...

Wise looked at Ellen in front of him with a strange expression. Although he already had a guess in his heart, this kind of thing was definitely not something he could say out loud. It was also fortunate that he had chosen a longer skirt, so an accident was less likely to happen. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why Ellen had chosen to take off her panties.

But even though Wise didn't say anything, Ellen on the other side still keenly sensed the change in his gaze and expression. To be honest, she didn't want to do this either, but the problem was that wearing clothes stained with ramen broth was really uncomfortable.

"Well, I'll be heading back first."

"Mmm, be careful on your way..."

After they politely said this, Ellen opened the door and prepared to leave. However, just at this moment, an accident occurred. The door had just opened when a strong gust of wind blew in from outside. Ellen subconsciously thought she had safety shorts on and used her hand to shield her eyes.

But it was different for Wise, who was standing behind her. Because of his position, the wind didn't blow so hard that he couldn't open his eyes, and he happened to see the skirt in front of him being blown up by the wind.

...(Content Deleted)...

"!!!"

"Ah!!!"

Ellen also reacted at this moment. She subconsciously wanted to scream, but remembering it was the middle of the night, she could only try her best to suppress her voice and then hold down her skirt with both hands. The wind outside was still blowing slightly, but it was no longer strong enough to lift her skirt. But even so, Ellen still maintained the posture of holding her skirt down.

"Wise! You... you didn't see anything, right?!"

Looking at Ellen in front of him, her face bright red as she said this through gritted teeth, how could Wise dare to say he saw anything? "N-no, I didn't. The wind was too strong just now, I was blown so hard I couldn't open my eyes..."

Hearing Wise say this, Ellen finally calmed down a little. But even so, she was still both shy and angry. Damn it, why are there so many accidents today?! And a boy even saw... No, I can't think about it anymore. He said he didn't see it, so that should... no, he absolutely didn't see it!

Wise saw these thoughts in Ellen's heart. Although he knew it wasn't appropriate to say this at this time, he still had to say it.

"Um... Ellen, I see the wind outside is a bit strong. If you're cold, do you need me to get you a pair of long pants?"

Hearing this, Ellen fell silent.

Cold? Was he kidding? In this current temperature, she would feel hot even wearing a skirt, let alone wearing long pants because of a little wind.

So he really did see it after all!

Although Ellen was filled with shame and anger, she still nodded and agreed to Wise's suggestion.

[Ding! Ellen's favorability has increased by 3 points. Current favorability: 83. 800 Emotion Value obtained. Current Emotion Value: 8800.]
