After deciding to give up, he started to gain popularity

"I don't think so." Kato shook his head and replied softly, "Eri seems to be busy with her manuscript recently, so let's not disturb her."

"As for me, I will be going back to my hometown with my parents soon, so it may be too late."

I scooped up a small piece of dessert and put it into my mouth, and the sour and astringent taste filled my taste buds.

Unappetizing.

So I thought maybe I should try a different style next time.

"So I have to trouble you, Natsukawa-kun. Please do your best."

He even clenched his fist and symbolically encouraged him, but he didn't know in which direction he wanted him to encourage him.

"Then leave it to Natsukawa-kun. I'll go back first." After saying this, Miss Kato took out a stack of papers from her bag and pushed them over along with the dessert.

"Don't waste it."

"..."

Since you are in such a hurry, don’t enjoy dessert so leisurely!

But there was no other way. Since Miss Kato said so, he had no choice but to take on the task - including the dessert.

I took a sip and it was a little sweet, but not bad...

After coming out of the dessert shop, I followed the address sent by Kato and soon arrived at Kasumigaoka Utaha's hiding place - a single apartment building.

Although I really want to ask Kato how she knew the senior's address, even her homeroom teacher doesn't know it, but I am also worried that Kato will refute me with a nonchalant answer - since we are friends, it's not strange for her to know the address, right?

I feel like Kato could really say something like this, and it would make it seem as if he, as a "friend", doesn't care at all about Kasumigaoka-senpai's current situation.

Even if this is true, it is really hurtful to hear it said to your face!

But I have to admit that I haven't been in touch with my senior sister recently. As for himself, it was due to various reasons. As for senior sister Kasumigaoka, I'm not sure. She has a changeable mind and he can never guess it.

Although he was thinking about all sorts of things, his feet didn't stop moving at all. He followed the house number to find his senior's new home and rang the doorbell.

"Moses, Moses, is there anyone there?"

"..."

The room was quiet, no one responded.

So I rang the doorbell again and waited for a while, but still no one answered.

Xiachuan Kanade had no choice but to pick up her phone and send a message to Kasumigaoka.

"Is senior at home? I'm at your door now, can you open the door?" I edited the message and sent it out.

The last conversation between the two was last Friday, exactly one week ago.

I waited patiently for a while, but there was no message from Kasumigaoka Utaha, not even a "read" reminder.

Did she go out? If so, she should have received a notification, unless she went to a quiet place like a bookstore. But considering that the senior sister was sick, she wouldn't be stupid enough to go to a bookstore to read books when she was sick, right?

After all, she is a "light homebody" who would never go out if she can avoid it.

"If I had known earlier, I should have sent a message first and come over after receiving a reply. I don't know if the senior sister is asleep..." Xia Chuan Zou sighed, feeling that he might have to waste a lot of time here.

For some unknown reason, Natsukawa Kanade placed his hand on the door handle and turned it gently.

"I'm so stupid. No matter what, I shouldn't leave it open..." He didn't even finish his complaints when he actually opened the door.

"Hey, is it true?"

Xiachuan Zou was very surprised. He didn't expect that his unintentional action would actually open the door.

But this doesn't make sense at all? With the dark personality of the senior sister who won't stop until she chokes someone to death, how could she base her personal safety on the character of others?

Let alone strangers, she doesn't even have 100% trust in her friends!

The only explanation is that the senior student was confused and forgot to lock the door.

So Natsukawa Kanade took out his cell phone again and sent a message to Kasumigaoka, telling her about this and reminding her that he was at the entrance and not to mistake him for a strange person.

102. The law that is difficult to escape

It is indeed impolite to break into a house without the owner's permission. Xiachuan Zou could have put down the lecture notes in his hand, sent a message to explain a few words and then went back, but after all, he was a "friend" and naturally had to visit the patient.

He took a quick look at the furnishings in the entrance hall and found that they were basically no different from those in his apartment. It looked like they were designed by the same designer.

These are not the key points. The key point is that Xiachuan Zou found a pair of leather shoes that were obviously men's, placed casually on the carpet.

"..."

There is almost no wear and tear, so they must be newly bought. Judging from the shape of the shoes, the owner is probably around 180cm tall, but this is clearly the home of Kasumigaoka Utaha.

So he looked around again and found the high heels she was wearing when they met Kasumigaoka last time when they went to Saitama. At that time, in order to treat her foot injury, he took off her shoes with his own hands, so he was deeply impressed.

Since it is confirmed that this is the senior’s home, the existence of this pair of men’s leather shoes is very suspicious.

If it was a father who came to visit the patient, he should have opened the door when he heard the doorbell, but he waited for a long time and no one answered. As for the shoes being placed like this, it is basically because he had the idea of ​​leaving soon that he did not put the shoes in the shoe cabinet, which contradicts the previous statement about visiting the patient...

"..."

Then, a bad idea came into Natsukawa Kanade's mind - could he have been robbed?

Although taking off shoes before robbing seemed strange, he couldn't think of any more ideas. Instead, he felt that this guess was becoming more and more possible.

The door was open not because the senior sister was confused, but because someone pried it open. The criminal might have followed the senior sister all the way because he coveted her beauty, and finally found an opportunity to attack and jump in...

Xiachuan Zou couldn't help but start to get anxious. The time for the leave was this morning, which meant that the criminal might have been holding the senior captive since last night.

A fugitive? Or a stalker?

The best outcome would naturally be that the senior student was merely imprisoned, but the fear is that the prisoner wants much more than that.

Should I call the police? Natsukawa Kanade thought.

But if he called the police, it would make a lot of noise, and the longer he delayed, the more dangerous the senior would be. At this time, he could only rely on himself.

Fortunately, the criminal should not know that he had entered the house. Maybe he was hiding in a room, or threatening the senior student to keep quiet.

Thinking of this, Xia Chuan Zuo took off his shoes and tiptoed into the living room.

After taking a quick look and finding nothing unusual, he picked up a long-handled umbrella beside him, held it tightly in his hand, and moved towards the closed rooms.

Some tiny sounds came from a room. Xia Chuan Zou's heart tightened and he became more careful. He slowly moved to the wall and listened to the movement inside.

Of course, he had never seen the criminal before, and had no idea how strong he was. If he rushed in rashly, the criminal might use this as an opportunity to take the senior sister hostage, and then his efforts would be completely in vain.

Therefore, if possible, he still hoped that the other party would take the initiative to come out so that he could take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the other party.

But reality doesn't seem to allow him to do so.

"No! Help! Someone come and save me..."

Such a sound came from inside the room.

So Xiachuan Zou's eyes narrowed, thinking that it was not that simple, so he pushed the door open and rushed in.

His leg muscles tensed, and he was about to exert full force to subdue the criminal, but he found that Kasumigaoka was the only one in the room, and there was no such thing as a "criminal" at all.

And the hostage he was thinking about, Kasumigaoka Utaha, was sitting peacefully on her own bed, holding a towel in her hand and wiping her body carefully.

Pajamas were scattered casually on the bed, and the upper body was almost naked. Kasumigaoka, holding a wet towel, raised one of her slender arms high and slowly wiped her waist.

There was a basin of water on the bedside table next to her, and a laptop computer was placed flat on her bed, with a movie playing on it. The sound he had just heard came from there.

"..."

"..."

……

"Tell me, junior, why did you suddenly break into someone else's house?" Kasumigaoka Utaha, who had already dressed and was sitting on the bed with her legs crossed, snorted and looked at Natsukawa Kanade, who was kneeling on the ground, with some contempt. "You are so hungry and thirsty that you finally decided to go all beastly and attack the cute beautiful girl?"

Although her body was still very weak, after suffering such a shock, Kasumigaoka Utaha's spirit was much better, and she could even start to give instructions to Natsukawa Sou.

In fact, she was indeed a little excited at the moment. If she didn't cover it up with harsh words, the shame in her heart would undoubtedly swallow up all her rationality.

"Uh, no...it's not like that..." Xia Chuan Zuo lowered his head slightly and tried to explain, "It's all a misunderstanding. I didn't mean to do that..."

At this moment he understood deeply that he was really a normal boy, so he could not defy the principle of the law of gravity. His mind was full of the scene just now, and even the words that should have been easy to come up with became a little stuttering.

"Because, because I saw men's leather shoes at the entrance, I was afraid that you would be killed, so I broke in..."

Although his speech function was somewhat impaired, he still managed to explain the whole process to Kasumigaoka Utaha, and her face looked better.

"So, I have to thank my juniors, right?"

"Theoretically..."

"Hmm?" Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes narrowed.

"Of course not!" Xia Chuan Zou waved his hands and changed his confession. "I was too worried and accidentally broke into a private house without permission. I hope that Senior Sister will be magnanimous and forgive my reckless behavior..."

The expected crime scene did not appear. Not only that, he even had a feast for his eyes. It would be a lie to say that he had any resentment towards the punishment given to the senior. It would be better to say that the fact that she did not take advantage of it proved that Kasumigaoka Utaha had completely forgiven him.

"Hmph..." Kasumigaoka Utaha hummed softly, but her mood became much better.

Not only was I able to see my junior showing weakness again, but I was also able to hear him say with my own ears that he was "worried about her". Not only did my mood, but even my body felt much better.

But she couldn't let him off so easily, he had done something so lucky as to be such a pervert, and she wasn't even a little prepared.

"Hmph, if you want me to forgive you, you must promise me one thing first."

"..."

Natsukawa Kanade felt something was not right.

103. I like this kind of junior the most

"Um..."

"I'm sorry... did I hurt you?"

"Well... a little more gently..."

"call……"

"..."

After about a few minutes, Natsukawa Kanade let out a long sigh and took his hands away from Kasumigaoka Utaha's delicate skin.

"Senior sister, you are too weak, right? It hurts here and there, I don't know how to start."

"It's obvious that the junior was too strong, wasn't he?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu put on a pair of shoes and glared at him. Her eyes were full of charm and she looked extremely seductive.

"But I can understand the junior's thoughts. After all, it's the first time to do this kind of thing. He must be so eager that he can't help but stick the X all over it, right?"

"Please don't replace the word 'hand' so deliberately. Someone who doesn't know might think I did something to you..." Natsukawa Kanade retorted.

"Oh? It's just an insignificant hand, no one will care, right?" Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled, and climbed to her peak with her bare hands, "Could it be that... the junior has misunderstood? Associated it with something else?"

Her heart was beating madly, and not only her face was burning terribly, but her whole body was also gradually becoming hot. However, this feeling was different from the weakness caused by a fever, and it was a more pleasant feeling for her.

"Anyway, that's how you boys are, right? You're always turning blue everywhere..." Kasumigaoka Utaha put on a playful expression again, but only she knew how uneasy she was inside.

Her original intention was to play a trick on her junior and see him in distress, but she didn't expect that he would actually agree - agree to rub her back.

In her own home, on her bed, with her shirt off.

This feeling of being alone and alone without anyone to disturb you...it wouldn't be strange even if something happened in the next second, right?

"..." Xiachuan Zou was silent for a while, feeling like he was poked.

In fact, "humans" are indeed the only creatures that can turn blue anytime and anywhere, 365 days a year. But it's too much to single out the male protagonist, right? He doesn't believe that girls don't feel anything at all!

"Is it because you think too much, Senior? I'm just complaining as usual."

I thought that after not seeing each other for such a long time, the way he and Senior Kasumigaoka get along with each other would be able to move towards normal, but it turned out to be even worse?

At least in the past, Kasumigaoka would at most use some bad words to stir up his emotions, but now she even uses physical weapons. Is she really not afraid that he will not be able to control himself and do something bad?
