As a general, she cannot be a good daughter of Kage.

"It's true."

After Xinhai finished speaking, he took another step forward without looking back.

"……call."

Seeing this, Linghua didn't ask any more questions and followed him again.

However, she passed a door in the process, glanced at it casually, then subconsciously stopped, and then continued to stare at this door. Its style of decoration was obviously different from other doors, and it was easy to identify.

Could this be—

"What's wrong? Miss Kamisato?"

After Xinhai felt that the person behind her had stopped moving, she turned around in confusion and found that the person was staring at her bedroom door, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

"...?"

She glanced at her room door, feeling a little confused. Why was she staring at her room door?Is there something on it?

"...Where is this?"

After Linghua also noticed her doubtful eyes, she gestured to the room in front of her and asked intentionally.

"Oh...this is my room. I wonder what Miss Kamisato means?"

She understood, smiled and answered.

The other party's room?

Ayaka's eyes narrowed slightly...

"Can I...can I go in and have a look?"

So she asked tentatively, and of course she was prepared to be rejected. After all, this was the other person's private space, and it was normal to disagree——

"...Okay, come with me."

However, the other party didn't hesitate at all. He passed directly in front of her and took the initiative to press the door handle.

Click!

The next second the room was opened by the other party, revealing the interior of the room.

"……excuse me."

She was stunned for a moment, then said something as she was used to it, and then walked into the room. Of course, she walked to the steps leading to the tatami to take off her shoes. First she saw the girl in front of her taking off her shoes skillfully and putting her shoes on. A pair of beautiful white silk feet stepped on the warm tatami, and she agreed upon seeing this. She was not wearing stockings like the other party's, but white footbags.

During this period, I paced back and forth in the room and looked everywhere, including behind the curtains, behind the wardrobe, and even——

Huhu~

Squatting down, he bent over and glanced under the bed.

"..."

During this period, Xinhai had been staring at her with some strange eyes. She felt that the other party's actions at the moment were like catching someone, as if there was someone hiding in her room, which made her a little confused. Speaking of which, she had always thought of the purpose of the other party's coming here. Didn't think clearly.

But even so, she didn't want to stop him, she just let her eyes follow the other person's figure strangely.

During the process, Ayaka walked to the closet of the owner of the room, turned to look at Xinhai who looked at her strangely, and gestured to him,

"is it okay?"

asked so suggestively.

"……Can."

Xinhai took a deep look at her, then closed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

Kacha~

Seeing this, Ayaka opened her closet door without hesitation, and what she saw was a collection of private clothes, including skirts, shirts, kimonos, and shoes, which are relatively common wardrobe items for girls.

"..."

Seeing this, Ayaka narrowed her eyes again, and then closed the closet strangely.

"..."

During this period of time, Xinhai had been watching her, his eyes full of inexplicable inquiry.

Does Princess Egret have any strange hobbies?

This sentence popped into her head.

But then she threw it away. She thought it was impossible. The other party obviously had some purpose in it. She could feel it, but what?

Why is it related to her?

"……call."

Ayaka exhaled and turned around and returned to the center of the room. She scanned it again with her ice-colored eyes. During this period, she happened to catch a purple raincoat decorated with seaweed hanging on the wall. It looked very consistent with the other person's daily clothes. Of course, there were also other things beside it. There is an umbrella hanging in a similar color.

"...?"

She didn't know why, but she always felt that it was a bit inconsistent to put these two items here, so she walked over to check them out.

"...!"

Xinhai's expression changed obviously when he saw the other person walking over. There was a rare hint of guilt or even nervousness in his quiet eyes. The palms around his chest tightened his arms, and then loosened without any trace.

"The material of this raincoat... seems to be fabric sold on Narukami Island. Miss Coral Palace also goes shopping on Narukami Island?"

Linghua let her bare hands touch the sleeves of her raincoat, then asked with a smile between her brows.

"That's not the case. This thing was given to me...by a friend from Narukami Island."

That's right, she didn't lie when she answered like this. After all, the fact is that the general gave her something, but she didn't tell the whole thing, and she didn't lie.

She had no ill intentions, but she didn't have any tokens of mutual trust with the general. She only had this, only this... She couldn't tell others, absolutely not, otherwise she would have nothing.

She knew that she was humble and easily satisfied, but she was also selfish. This was the private feeling in her Coral Palace heart.

Chapter of the People of the World~Xuyu Baimeng: Chapter 34 Why show a sad expression?

"...I see, I was overthinking it, I'm sorry."

Ayaka didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. She could see some clues from the other person's face, but she didn't reveal it.

Then she left the wall again, pacing and looking at the desktop where the other party usually worked. There happened to be a book placed on it, with a colorful cover and playful words.

Is this... a light novel?

She planned to walk over, but without thinking for a second, Xinhai picked up the light novel on the table before her, avoided her hand without leaving a trace, walked to the bookshelf with his back to her, and put it back. in situ.

"...Does Miss Coral Palace also have the 'elegance' to read light novels?"

She didn't care when she saw this, but asked like this.

"...It's just a little entertainment in daily life, after all..."

Xinhai stopped collecting the book, glanced at her slightly and said,

"...I'm just a boring person."

After speaking, she moved her hands again, then turned around again and looked at Ayaka who was still looking at her across from her.

"I can't tell. On the contrary, I think Miss Coral Palace is very interesting."

Ayaka looked at her with some amusement.

"Interesting?...Miss Kamisato really knows how to joke."

She paused for a moment, looked away from the other person with her eyes, and vaguely retorted to him. The next second, she passed by the other person silently, without looking at him during this period.

"I wonder if my room can satisfy Miss Kamisato?"

Xinhai walked to the steps and put on his shoes again, turned around and looked at the ice-colored girl still standing in the center, and asked like this.

"..."

Ayaka turned her head silently and looked over.

"...There is nothing here, no traps, no secret passages, no murder weapons, and no one is hiding. There are just the daily necessities of an ordinary girl, a bed and a wardrobe."

She said angrily.

"..."

Ayaka was still looking at her, a hint of doubt gradually appearing in her eyes.

"Of course, if you are dissatisfied, I understand... After all, the Coral Palace's economy is not as wealthy as the Kamisato family, and I myself don't like overly ostentatious and luxurious things. Please understand."

The other party seemed to have anticipated her answer in the next second, and he didn't forget to tease her in advance.

"Pfft...hehe..."

However, she did not get angry, but couldn't help covering her smile with a folding fan, and her beautiful voice turned into a delicate laugh.

"...?"

Xinhai didn't understand why she was laughing, so he looked at her with a slight frown.

clatter...

Ayaka just put the plain white footbag into the clogs again with a smile, and looked at her again.

"As expected...you are not boring at all, you are even interesting."

After saying that, he took the initiative to leave the room.

"...?"

He was stunned for a moment, glanced at the other person's leaving figure with his peripheral vision, and then turned around silently, his eyes full of inquiry.

After the two people walked out of the room, they came to the corridor again.

"And...that bed is nice, quite big."

Linghua thought of something and after she closed the door, she turned around and said something.

"……bed?"

"It's quite suitable for two people to sleep in. It should be said that it's just right for two people to sleep in."

Then Ayaka returned the favor again, returning the slap she had just received.

"..."
