Daily Comics: Mystery Begins from Everyday Life

"Hey, you're all here~" he greeted the fifth sister.

"Welcome home, Xiaotian~" Nakano Ichika spoke first.

"Well, I'm back." Luotian responded.

"Why did you take so long to come back?!" Nakano Nino looked at Luotian with some dissatisfaction.

"There are some things to deal with." Luo Tian said vaguely.

"What happened? Some classmates saw you leaving with that first-year student." Nakano Miku said lightly.

"Um...I just accompanied her to buy some things." Luotian said.

"Xiaotian, come and try this." Nakano Yotsuba walked to Luotian expectantly, put his arm around him, and stuffed a biscuit into Luotian's mouth.

"Hmm? Hmm!" Luo Tian nodded with a surprised and savoring expression, and said, "Sanjiu, there has been progress. It tastes very good."

“Huh?!” Nakano Mayu looked at Luotian in surprise and asked, “Xiaotian, how do you know it was done by Miku?”

"Ah? I guessed it." Luo Tian said casually.

"Guess?" The five sisters looked at Luotian together, as if they wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Isn't this normal?" Luo Tian walked over to Nakano Miku and sat down. He picked up the slightly burnt sandwich biscuit and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it and swallowed it. He said, "Miku's craftsmanship is not as perfect as Nino's. It has a faint burnt smell, but it is still easy to identify."

"I told you, Xiaotian can tell the difference just by tasting it." Nakano Nino said, and from her tone it seemed that she was testing Luotian's ability to tell the difference again.

"May, Yotsuba, you lose. I'll leave breakfast tomorrow to you~" Nakano Ichika said with a smile.

“Hehehe, I didn’t expect that I would still lose~” Nakano Yotsuba touched the back of her head and smiled happily.

"It's really boring. Can't Xiaotian make a mistake just once?" Nakano Mayu curled her lips and glared at Luotian with some complaint.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Luo Tian shook his head as if he had a headache. "If even you guys can admit the mistake, then it definitely wasn't me."

"Haha~!" Nakano Ichika chuckled, "If Xiaotian really can't tell the difference, May will be even angrier, right?"

“No way!” Nakano Mayu put her hands on her hips and muttered, “It’s because Xiaotian knows us too well that I always lose when we bet…”

"I knew you were going to cheat again, May." Nakano Nino rested her chin on her hand and looked at Nakano Satsuki, who looked as if she had been seen through.

"I'm not cheating!" Nakano Mayu turned away proudly and said angrily, "It's just preparing breakfast, and it's simple."

"That's right! It's just breakfast, don't worry!" Nakano Yotsuba waved her hand with a broad mind.

"By the way, did today's exam go well?" Luotian picked up the juice next to him and drank it all, looking at Nakano Miku who was standing beside him and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Well...it feels pretty good." Nakano Ichika took the lead and the other four sisters nodded in agreement.

"That's good." Luo Tian nodded without any doubt, and then said, "Tomorrow we will take the English, Physics and Sociology exams. I will simply tell you the key points of the first two subjects."

"OK!" Nakano Yotsuba responded lively, looking at Luotian like a good baby.

"English is not that difficult." Nakano Nino said confidently, and slowly picked up the English textbook that she had prepared long ago.

"That's true, but I still don't know how to do it very well..." Nakano Ichika said worriedly.

"Hehe~ Ichika is so bad, Xiaotian will be sad~" Nakano Nino teased.

"Ahaha...it's a foreign language after all." Nakano Ichika argued.

"Among all subjects, Nino is only confident in English." Nakano Miku revealed the reason why Nakano Nino is confident.

"Eh~? Is Miku jealous of me?" Nakano Nino said with a smile.

"Why should I be jealous of you?" Nakano Miku replied indifferently, holding the English book in her arms.

"Okay, okay, do you still want to listen to Xiaotian's lecture?" Nakano Satsuki interrupted the conversation between Nakano Nino and Nakano Miku with an adult look.

"That's true. Arguing with you is a waste of time in learning knowledge." Nakano Miku complained.

“Hehe, Miku, no matter how detailed Xiaotian explains it, you can never surpass me.” Nakano Nino finally stopped after a round of taunting.

"Now that everyone is ready, I will start with the big English questions, reading, and give examples." Luo Tian did not touch the textbook, but took out his notebook from his student bag, on which various question types and key points were recorded.

Two hours later, Luotian closed his notebook. The five sisters breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to stretch their stiff limbs. The posture of stretching their waists and raising their legs was full of temptation in Luotian's eyes.

"I still have practice papers for English and physics. Remember to finish them tonight." As he said that, Luotian began to pack up his textbooks and stuffed everything into the student bag.

"Xiaotian, are you leaving now?" Nakano Mayu asked somewhat dissatisfiedly, drawing puzzled looks from the other four sisters.

"Well, I just received a message from Kitagawa, saying that he will come to my place for dinner today." Luotian took out his cell phone and showed it to the five sisters, fearing that he would be considered to be lying to them.

"Hai Meng..." Nakano Yotsuba muttered.

"Come to think of it, Haimeng often went to your place for meals." Nakano Ichika said as if recalling the past.

"Well, I asked her to come." Luo Tian explained, "She always eats half-finished fast food at home, which is not good for her health, so I told her 'You can come to my place for dinner anytime.'"

"I remember that last time at Yui's birthday party, Haimeng also said that she often eats quick-heated food. I thought she was joking..." Nakano Nino said in disbelief. After all, it was really hard to take Kitagawa Haimeng's words seriously with her lively tone.

"Of course I'm not kidding." Luo Tian shook his head slightly and said, "That's just her personality. If you don't know her, it's hard to believe that she eats these fast foods every day."

"Then let's bring some cookies made by Nino." Nakano Ichika suggested.

"Okay, Hinami was saying yesterday that she wanted to eat the cookies made by Nino." Luotian said with a smile.

"Then I'll go get the snack box." Hearing Luotian say this, Nakano Nino ran into the kitchen happily, took out the snack box and put all the cookies on the coffee table into it.

A few minutes later, Luotian took the long snack box and put it into his student bag. After weighing it, he stood up and left with the five sisters watching him.

Arriving at the corridor, Luotian opened the shadow passage and went directly to the store, with half an hour left.

"Father, welcome home!" The one who was looking after the shop today was Cui Xingshi. When she saw the shadow passage was opened, she stood at the exit early and waited.

"Ah, I'm back. Thank you, Cui Xingshi, for your hard work in looking after the store." Luotian put down his school bag and bent down to pick up the well-behaved Cui Xingshi.

"No!" Cui Xingshi happily hugged Luotian's neck and said, "By the way, father, Hai Meng is here, and Mai is here too~"

"Mai is here." Luotian was a little surprised.

"Yes." Cui Xingshi explained: "Mai knew that father was going to tutor Ichika and the others, so she didn't bother you."

"So that's how it is. Let's go in. We don't need to guard here all the time." Luotian walked into the living room at the back holding the Green Star Stone.

In the living room, only Shinku and others were sitting on the sofa, watching the movie Detective Kuku intently.

Luotian walked over holding the Green Star Stone. After chatting for a few words, he took out the snack box prepared by Nakano Nino and placed it on the table, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, two girls were busy with something, but the smell coming out was full of spices.

"Kitagawa-san, Mai-san, what are you doing?" Luotian came forward to take a look curiously.

"Luotian, you're back!" Kitagawa Kaimeng shouted with a smile.

"Well, do you need my help?" Luotian asked.

"No, no, the stew will be almost ready!" Kitagawa Umi said expectantly.

"Luotian, try it." Sakurajima Mai handed Luotian a small plate with a drop of soy sauce-colored thick sauce on it.

"This is..." Luo Tian took the small plate and tasted it, then nodded and praised: "This curry is well made!"

"Then let's have curry rice for dinner." Sakurajima Mai said with a smile.

"No problem!" Luo Tian gave a thumbs up and said, "Then I'll sit back and enjoy dinner tonight."

"You can't just sit and wait." Sakurajima Mai turned around and stuffed the rag into Luotian's hand, saying, "Go wipe the table, and we'll be able to eat soon."

"OK!" Luotian responded readily, turned around and walked towards the long dining table that could accommodate more than ten people. This was the one Luotian deliberately changed before preparing for Yuigahama Yui's birthday.

In about ten minutes, stewed meat, curry rice, fried eggs and kelp soup were served on the table. The aroma of various dishes wafted into the air, whetting one's appetite.

Shinhong and others who were eating curry rice for the first time were also curious about the soy sauce-colored rice bowl. After taking a bite, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"It's so delicious..." Cang Xingshi widened his eyes slightly, a little surprised that the taste was much better than he had imagined.

"Indeed, it's delicious." Cuixingshi said as he ate with big mouthfuls.

"Mai, you did a great job," Shinhong praised.

"Thank you, Shinhong~" Sakurajima Mai was very happy. After all, the most important thing about cooking is to get praise from diners.

"Mai Mai, I didn't know you are so good at cooking!" Hinamichi's mouth was full of curry, looking silly and cute.

"Of course I can cook~" Sakurajima Mai replied gently, smiling and picking up a tissue to wipe Hinami's mouth, "Eat slowly, there's still a lot~"

"Mai is very talented at cooking!" Canary praised.

"Haha~ It's okay. I learned it when I lived alone." Sakurajima Mai said with a smile.

"Mmm~! Delicious!" Kitagawa Umi was enjoying the meal and said, "So Senior Mai lives alone, me too!"

"Hai Meng lives alone too? Where are your family?" Sakurajima Mai asked curiously. After all, she came out because of a conflict with her family.

"My mother has passed away due to illness, and my father has been transferred to work in another place, so I live alone most of the time." Kitagawa Umi said with a smile, without any worry or frustration at all.

"I see... your father must be having a hard time..." Mai Sakurajima sighed.

"Yeah, that's right." Kitagawa Umi nodded and said, "Although I live alone like Senior Mai, I don't have such good cooking skills as Senior Mai."

"Kitagawa, I think it's necessary to let Mai see some of the fast food you've eaten." Luotian reminded.

"Fast food?" Mai Sakurajima was a little confused.

"Hmm? Yes, sure." Kitagawa Umi bit the spoon, opened the photo album on her mobile phone, and handed it to Sakurajima Mai.

"Uh... did you really eat well?" Sakurajima Mai looked at Kitagawa Umi in astonishment. The photo showed a bowl of mess made from all kinds of semi-finished instant foods. It didn't look appetizing at all. One could imagine how much courage it took to eat it.

"Yeah, yes!" Kitagawa Haimeng took another big bite and filled his mouth, buzzing: "But the food made by Luotian is super delicious, so I often come to Luotian for free meals~"

"Kitagawa-san often eats fast food that is not nutritious for the body and can't cook. How pitiful~!" Luotian whispered to Sakurajima Mai.

"You should also eat some normal food..." Sakurajima Mai nodded slightly in understanding.

At this moment, a black shadow flew in from the window, attracting everyone's attention.

Chapter 159: Speaking Frankly Before the Summer Vacation Begins

Just at this moment, a black shadow flew in from the window, attracting everyone's attention.

"Father, I'm back." Mercury Lamp said respectfully.

"You're back just in time. Come over for dinner." Luotian waved his hand.

"Yes, father." Mercury Lamp flew to Luotian and sat down.

"Today, it's the curry rice that Mai Tongxu cooked himself~" Luotian personally brought bowls and chopsticks to Shui Yindeng, then added a bowl of rice and poured curry on it, and a fragrant curry rice was ready.

"Mai made it?" Mercury Lamp looked at Sakurajima Mai with a surprised expression. She was a little surprised that this girl who had always been eating for free could actually cook, and the smell was so delicious.

"Yes, let's try it." Sakurajima Mai was a little expectant. She was really looking forward to taking this opportunity to get closer to this noble and aloof girl.

"Let me try." Mercury Lamp said proudly, picked up the spoon and scooped some into his mouth, then closed his eyes slightly and tasted it like a demanding taster.

"It's pretty good." Mercury Lamp said calmly, "Although it's not as good as my father's, it's still edible."

"Thank you~" Sakurajima Mai smiled, feeling that the meal was worth it.

The time came to eight o'clock in the evening.

After seeing off Kitagawa Umi, Luotian sat at the cashier counter to watch over the store, while Sakurajima Mai was reviewing the subjects for tomorrow's exam next to her.

“With Mai’s ability, she shouldn’t need to rush to review, right?” Luo Tian sighed, resting his chin on his hand.

"Of course, aren't you reviewing for the exam?" Mai Sakurajima asked without turning her head.

"I don't need that. I'm very confident about these exams." Luotian said confidently.

"'Sixty-seventy' is right. Your grades are the best in the school." Sakurajima Mai looked up at Luotian and asked, "Luotian, have you decided which university you want to choose in the future?"

"University..." Luo Tian said calmly, "Teacher Jing also asked me this question two months ago, but I haven't decided yet."

"Is that so? Then do you want to apply to Yokohama University?" asked Mai Sakurajima.

"Yokohama University?" Luotian shook his head.

"Don't you plan to continue your studies?!" Mai Sakurajima asked angrily.

"If classmate Mai goes to college, I will go with her. If classmate Mai wants to take filming seriously, I will be in charge of the agency." Luotian said.

"Of course I plan to go to higher education! And to Yokohama Public University!" Sakurajima Mai emphasized, fearing that Luotian would not remember.
