However... Shiina Mashiro has never been a girl who can be called "normal".

"Scared? Not at all."

Shiina Mashiro shook her head slightly, and turned to look even brighter than before.

"Rather... I'm starting to become more interested in Lian's past."

As the saying goes, a girl's curiosity often means the beginning of a new relationship.

At this moment, the "detective game" belonging to Shiina Mashiro has officially begun.

Chapter 34: The most common way of psychological consultation is small talk

Although Ren Suzuki would ask Shiina Mashiro to wake up on time every day during the working day, on weekends, Ren Suzuki would still relax the time limit and let Shiina Mashiro sleep until she wakes up naturally.

"But no matter what...it's a little too late today, right?"

Looking at the hour hand that had turned to eleven o'clock in the morning, Suzuki Ren couldn't help but glance upstairs with some worry.

"Did you not sleep well last night?"

"Hey, it's normal for young people to stay up late on weekends~"

Misaki Kamiigusa, who was watching animation on the TV in the lobby, said:

"Especially since you just went to such an exciting place the day before, it's natural for Mashiro-chan to get excited."

"Livehouse...is it a very exciting place?"

"At least I think 90.00% of high school students have never been."

"…………"

It seems that his experience in Xiuhua High School has indeed affected his understanding and common sense to a greater or lesser extent.

"Speaking of which...when you two came back yesterday, the atmosphere seemed pretty good, right?"

Misaki Ueikusa started talking and pressed the pause button on the remote control.

"Sure enough, the relationship has progressed?"

"...Progress? What do you mean?"

"Hey, you're still pretending to be stupid with me~ Of course I'm talking about making your two 'rumors come true'!"

Misaki Uekusa snickered and said:

"We stick together from morning to night every day, and even go out on dates together on our days off! They are so youthful."

"...Well, it really gives people this feeling."

Hearing Misaki Uyegusa's words, Ren Suzuki did not rush to refute, but showed a "thoughtful" expression.

"But think about it, the sense of distance between the two of us is indeed not like a normal relationship... I really want to restore the normal sense of distance before Shiina-san forms a wrong perception..."

"…………Eh? Isn’t it?"

After hearing Ren Suzuki's soliloquy, Misaki Kamikusa's expression froze:

"Is it possible that you two... didn't intend to have that kind of relationship?"

"How should I say this..."

Ren Suzuki touched her nose and tried to speak for a while, then said:

"Rather than saying whether she has any plans, it's better to say that the current Shiina-san simply doesn't have the conditions to be able to interact with others."

"Eh? What does that mean?"

"After living together for this month, you should be able to feel it, right? Shiina-san's understanding of many emotions is not complete. Not only that, she also does not possess some knowledge that is almost common sense in our eyes. "

"Well, this is quite true."

After hearing this, Misaki Uekusa couldn't help laughing and scratching her cheek.

"When I told her some dirty jokes before, she would actually ask me to explain the plot with a serious face... It was really embarrassing at the time."

"…………"

After hearing what Misaki Uyegusa said, Ren Suzuki couldn't help but frown, and cast extremely cold eyes on the senior who was smiling apologetically.

"It's my fault! I apologize! Ahem, let's get down to business, little Mashiro does lack a lot of cognition and common sense that a girl of this age should have."

Misaki Uekusa said seriously:

"However, if you are here, Suzuki-kun, you will be able to teach her these things slowly in the next time! So don't worry, just go ahead and do it!"

"Rushly occupying that position before she formed a correct understanding does not conform to my view of right and wrong."

After hearing this, Misaki Kamikusa became unhappy.

"How can this be called occupation! Apart from you, do you think there is really anyone else who can take on this responsibility!?"

"?Isn't that natural?"

Hearing Misaki Uyegusa's question, Ren Suzuki looked at her with a rather strange expression.

"There are obviously as many people as I need who can replace me, right?"

"Hey, stop joking at this time. I'm going to have a serious talk with you again...Eh? No way, right?"

Looking at Ren Suzuki's expression and eyes that never changed, Misaki Kamikusa couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

"You, you really think so!?"

"...Yes, is there anything strange?"

Ren Suzuki was quite puzzled by what Misaki Kamikusa was making a fuss about.

"Although everyone in this world is indeed unique, that doesn't mean the same is true between people, right?"

"No, no, no, if we become a couple, it will definitely be unique!"

Misaki Kamikusa said this word directly.

"And if it's Mashiro-chan, let alone becoming a girlfriend, even now, you are absolutely irreplaceable to her."

"...That's an exaggeration, Kamiizusa-senpai."

After hearing Misaki Uyegusa's words, Ren Suzuki couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

If he was in junior high school, he would definitely agree with what Misaki Kamikusa said at this time, right?

In other words, if he had not experienced so many failures, he would probably have thought carefully about what she said.

Unfortunately……

"Except for family members, there are no irreplaceable people in this world. For example, everything I did for Shiina Mashiro, in fact, just hiring a full-time servant for her can be enough to replace her, and it will even be better than I'm better. It's just because of the connection between my parents that I happened to be here when she needed her. After Shiina Mashiro has a certain degree of self-care and cognitive ability, my existence will no longer be special. ”

"You, your statement..."

As if she was stunned, Misaki Kamikusa looked at the boy with a calm face in stunned silence.

"Okay, let's put aside your care for little Mashiro...if you become a couple, your good feelings and admiration for each other will be irreplaceable by others, right?!"

"Let's not talk about whether Shiina Mashiro has these things for me... In fact, the two feelings you mentioned are not unique. Otherwise, why would there be so many cheating and cheating in this world? What about betrayal?”

Suzuki Ren shook his head.

"I admit that I do want to have a relationship with Shiina-san that goes further than ordinary classmates, but that is only if she has a correct understanding of 'love'. I will still try my best to do what I should do. As for whether Shiina-san will agree with me or eliminate me on the day when I am no longer needed, that is none of my business."

thump, thump, thump—

Just when Suzuki Ren finished these words, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps on the stairs.

Shiina Mashiro, who had just gotten up, was rubbing her hazy sleepy eyes while slowly walking down the stairs——

"Hey, Shiina-san, you forgot to comb your hair."

"...Ah, really."

"Really, go back to your room and wait for me. I'll go over and help you comb your hair later."

"Oh."

After hearing Ren Suzuki's reminder, Mashiro Shiina stopped without hesitation. Then, she immediately turned around obediently and returned to the second floor...

"Okay, that's all I want to say. I'll go up and comb Shiina-san's hair first."

Ren Suzuki first waved to Misaki Kamikusa, who was petrified on the spot, then got up and walked to the second floor, preparing to go to Mashiro Shiina's room to comb her hair.

And it wasn't until he left completely that Misaki Kamikusa murmured blankly:

"...Isn't it?"

She originally thought that Shiina Mashiro's lack of common sense was already the biggest obstacle between the two. However, after the brief conversation just now, she suddenly discovered that the biggest obstacle between the two was actually Suzuki Ren!

What was that miserable, negative and despairing self-explanation just now? !Does this guy really think so from the bottom of his heart? !

if it is like this--

"Jen! Ren! S·O·S!"

Misaki Ueizusa screamed and ran towards Mitaka Jin's room.

"Our juniors have a big mental problem!!!"

"Aha???"

Chapter 35: Shiina Mashiro’s “search”

"Lian, how tall are you?"

"179cm."

"weight?"

"64kg."

"Well... those measurements -"

"Boys don't test things like this."

While Ren Suzuki was combing Shiina Mashiro's hair, she replied helplessly:

"Why do you suddenly ask me these things?"

"Because I want to know Lian better."

"..."

After hearing this unexpected answer, Suzuki Ren's movements suddenly stopped involuntarily.

"Then... why do you want to know me?"

"why……"

Shiina Mashiro, who narrowed his eyes slightly due to Suzuki Ren's touch, pondered for a moment before answering in an uncertain tone:

"Because... it's interesting?"

"Is that so..."

Hearing the other party's answer that was as unclear as ever, Suzuki Ren didn't take it seriously and just regarded it as the other party's whim.

"Then if you have any other questions you want to ask, just ask them."

"Well... let me think about it."

After receiving the permission, Shiina Mashiro suddenly fell into thinking.

However, after thinking for a long time, she slowly shook her head:

"No, there are so many things I want to know that I don't know where to start."

"...???"

So many that I don’t know where to start?What on earth does this child want to know about him?

Ren Suzuki couldn't help but think in confusion.

At the same time, he had also combed Shiina Mashiro's sleep-messed hair back into order.

"Well, anyway, if you have anything to ask me, you can always come and ask me."
