A cute girl’s heart is capable of anything

"...the trainer?"

"Uh-huh?!"

Hearing Qingzhu Fengya's startled voice, Saito Asuka raised his head blankly and responded subconsciously.

But when he saw Qingzhu Fengya looking at him and the display screen showing the words 'Level Passed Successfully', the man who reacted immediately wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"Passed?"

"..."

Qingzhu Fengya didn't answer.

She stared at Saito Asuka beside her, who was looking at her with a smile, and puffed up her cheeks.

"...Trainer, are you so bored playing games with me?"

More than ten seconds later, Saito Asuka, who finally saw Qingzhu Fuga speak, heard her say in a very resentful voice: "If this happens, even I will be angry, right?"

"Feel sorry!"

Saito Asuka, who was being stared at angrily by the black-haired horse girl, hurriedly clasped his hands together: "...I was so absorbed that I accidentally fell asleep!"

"Trance?"

Qingzhu Fengya, who repeated the word, gradually showed a smile on his face: "...So the trainer likes me so much when I am serious?"

"Yep, it is."

Saito Asuka looked away with some guilt: "You do look pretty when you are serious."

"Humph...that's not right."

The black-haired horse girl who was praised smiled and corrected: "...Beautiful girls are the most eye-catching no matter what time~?"

"Yes, yes, you are right."

Saito Asuka looked away guiltily.

I can't say it...

Saito Asuka thought as he heard the smiling voice of the black-haired horse girl next to him.

...After ordering the takeout, while looking at Qingzhu Fengya sitting there racking his brains to solve the mystery, a sentence suddenly popped into his mind.

...Does this make Qingzhu Fengya feel defeated?

Saito Asuka, who didn't even know why he suddenly thought of this, was stunned for a moment, and then he rested his chin and continued thinking.

...On the playing field, all the horse girls could see their backs out of reach, but here he would show an expression of distress because of a simple little puzzle.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt more and more satisfied. Saito Asuka twitched his lips and almost laughed.

Cough, cough, cough, no, no, no.

The moment the laughter escaped his lips, Saito Asuka covered his mouth and blocked his laughter in his throat.

If Fengya heard what she was laughing at and knew the reason, she would be unhappy, right?

Saito Asuka secretly glanced at Qingzhu Fengya while snickering in his heart.

Fortunately, Qingzhu Fengya, who focused all her attention on solving the puzzle, was completely unaware of his little move.

"Finally passed this level?"

Saito Asuka stood up and stretched his body.

"Ok!"

Qingzhu Fengya smiled and nodded: "Trainer, trainer, am I very powerful?"

"... This kind of puzzle can take so long, how dare you say you are good?"

Saito Asuka, who yawned, first glanced at the clearance time displayed on the display, and then after a moment of silence, the man with a subtle expression on his face said to Qingzhu Fengya, "Come on, praise me." ' Under his gaze, he said: "It took you so long to pass such a simple level. Do you still want me to praise you?"

"Eh...that's too much."

After hearing Saito Asuka say this, Qingzhu Fuga immediately put on a pitiful expression: "...I've obviously worked so hard, can't you praise me?"

"I don't think it's praiseworthy that it took so long to solve this puzzle."

Saito Asuka complained expressionlessly.

"If you say that, I will really cry for you to see, right?"

As Qingzhu Fengya spoke, she rubbed her eyes and let out a fake cry of "woo woo woo".

"Fake crying is useless."

Saito Asuka knocked her on the head, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Now that you've cleared the level, let's take a rest."

Saito Asuka, who opened the creaking wooden door, turned sideways and looked at the black-haired horse girl sitting on the ground: "Just in time, the takeaway I ordered has arrived."

"Huh? Do you want to have lunch so early?"

Qingzhu Fengya asked doubtfully.

"...Just take a look at what time it is now."

Saito Asuka pointed to the mobile phone placed beside her and said helplessly.

Please save this school that is about to be abandoned! : Chapter 68: [Rudolph’s symbol]

Qingzhu Fengya leaned on the chair, holding a cup of milk tea in both hands.

She leaned forward, gently bit the straw and took a sip of milk tea.

Feeling the liquid at the right temperature pouring into her mouth along the straw, with a few chewy pearls mixed in, Qingzhu Fengya lowered her head and looked at the chocolate cake in front of her, then raised her head again and looked at it. Saito Asuka, who was sitting not far away drinking hot coffee, fell into silence.

"Trainer, isn't this bad?"

"……what?"

Saito Asuka, who was sitting on a chair drinking hot coffee and looking up out the window from time to time, asked in confusion.

But after seeing the untouched chocolate cake placed in front of the black-haired horse lady, he asked pretending to be confused: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat chocolate cake? Why don't you eat it now?"

"But aren't these things I can get only after I win you?"

Qingzhu Fengya blinked at Saito Asuka: "Trainer, are you doting on me too much?"

"Pamper? Can this be considered pampering?"

Saito Asuka leisurely took a sip of the hot coffee in his hand: "...As a trainer, I help the horse girl I am responsible for get what she wants. Is there anything wrong with this?"

"Wow..."

After hearing Saito Asuka's words, Qingzhu Fuya made an unknown sound: "...Trainer, you must be careful not to spoil your children in the future."

"Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Saito Asuka asked without knowing why.

... He and Nakayama Megumi have no idea of ​​having a child yet.

At least... we have to wait until everything settles down.

"Nothing, nothing."

Qingzhu Fengya answered with a smile, then picked up the fork, took a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Wow--so sweet!"

"..."

Looking at the black-haired horse girl covering half of her face and squinting her eyes while enjoying the chocolate cake, Saito Asuka lowered his head and blew the hot coffee in his hand.

"By the way, trainer, do we still want to continue playing that game this afternoon?"

Then, the Fengya voice from Qingzhu made the movements of his hands suddenly stop.

...continue to play that game with her?

When this sentence first appeared in his mind, he found that he rejected this matter from the bottom of his heart.

"No, I think we should play another game."

Saito Asuka shook his head and refused without hesitation: "I have other cooperative games."

"Really? That's really a pity."

On the contrary, Qingzhu Fengya showed some regret: "...This game is quite fun."

It's fun for you, but it's torture for me to continue playing with you.

Looking at the black-haired horse girl with a regretful expression on her face, Saito Asuka thought silently in his heart.

... Let’s play a cooperative puzzle-solving game with her later.

Looking at the black-haired horse girl who was still enjoying the deliciousness of the chocolate cake, Saito Asuka subconsciously looked at the drawer of the table in front of him while thinking this.

As for a cooperative puzzle game... it shouldn't put me in jail too much, right?

Saito Asuka felt a little uneasy as he took another sip of hot coffee.

...Shouldn't it?

Saito Asuka emphasized what he said before in his mind, hoping to gain some self-confidence.

Although I am not as good as those top players, I am just playing a game...

It should...not be so, right?

Saito Asuka thought without confidence.

...I won’t go to jail for playing a cooperative game, right?

Asuka Saito thought to himself as he dug out the game he wanted to play next from the drawer.

However, 10 minutes later, what he least wanted to see happened.

"Fengya, go to the left and press the yellow button."

"The yellow button, is this it?"

"...It's the one next to me!"

Saito Asuka, who was almost able to pass the level, was a little crazy.

...They have failed here ten times in a row.

This time it was rare that the journey went smoothly. Even when he thought he would definitely pass this time, the black-haired horse girl next to him once again gave him a trick, making the 'clearance' that was only one step away once again become out of reach. and.

"..."

Saito Asuka silently put down the handle in his hand, turned his head, and stared at the black-haired horse girl sitting next to him.

... She fell down several times in places where she had failed before. It was hard not to believe whether she did it on purpose or not.

"Oh, trainer, why are you staring at me like that?"

Aotake Fuga, who was stared closely at by Saito Asuka, covered her cheeks with her hands and said shyly: "If you keep staring at me, I will feel shy~?"

"...Fengya, you're not really playing seriously, are you?"

Ignoring Qingzhu Fengya's words, Saito Asuka asked expressionlessly.

"Huh? No."

Qingzhu Fengya said with a smile: "...I've been having fun!"

"If it was fun, how did you die in the same place several times in a row?!"

Finally, Saito Asuka, who couldn't control his desire to complain, patted Qingzhu Fengya on the shoulder: "...Are you really having fun?!"

"Yeah! Of course!"

Qingzhu Fengya puffed up her chest proudly: "...I am enjoying the happiness brought by the game~?"

"So you really aren't having fun!"

Saito Asuka took a deep breath, and the arm pressing on Qingzhu Fengya's shoulder began to gradually increase its strength.

"Huh? But when playing games, shouldn't the main focus be on 'happiness'?"
