Akane Takagi opened the package of chicken breast, placed it in front of the door of the wooden house, and hid inside the house.

"Can we really wait for a wild cat to come like this..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, Mr. Shimamura." Takagi Akane raised her index finger, and her voice suddenly took on a strange rhythm. "Just be patient and wait here. Don't worry about anything else..."

A light pink light flashed in her eyes, and Shimamura Hitomi seemed to sense it. She shook her head and seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

However, when the "Soul of Language" was about to take effect, a mysterious force suddenly appeared.

This power was different from the one that Akane Takagi had experienced at Qingyou's hands. It was not a heart-pounding warning, but it silently dissolved the soul of Yu.

The catalyst has been put in, but no effect has been produced.

Hitomi Shimamura was completely unaware, but the phone in her pocket, an app called "Dream Wanderer", quietly popped up a push message.

Chapter 137 Kitahara Ayano praises Kiyohisa's stupidity

Time returns to the present.

Ayano searched Takagi Akane's body carefully but still couldn't find the catalyst.

This does not mean that the suspicion on Akane Takagi can be lifted. Maybe the catalyst happened to be used up, or maybe she didn't bring it with her today.

As a rare plant, the Azalea has no ornamental or medicinal value, but when Akane Takagi saw the flower, her subconscious reaction proved that it must be something very useful to her.

"It's a pity that I didn't catch you this time... I hope you can keep your composure, little one."

Ayano pinched Takagi Akane's face and returned along the same path.

Her physical strength was indeed very poor. She would be out of breath just by walking on a trail with a slight elevation difference. But it didn't matter. After all, she was the only one who could move in the time stop, and she didn't have to worry about falling behind others due to the difference in physical strength.

Ayano enjoyed this state of absolute tranquility. She didn't need to please anyone, nor did she need to be pleased by anyone.

The only drawback is that the duration of the time stop is too short, about ten minutes, and it fluctuates depending on the purity of the catalyst.

By the time they walked back to the pavilion, it was almost over, and Ayano only had time to... wake up Qingyou.

"It's my turn."

Ayano still remembers what she was doing before the time stop ended, what the people she was talking to were doing, and further, how to continue the "plot" just now... All of the above are instincts acquired after long-term and proficient use.

What’s a bit funny is that after experiencing Ayano’s time stop so many times, Qingyou has also acquired a similar instinct - the instinct to pretend nothing happened, and then continue to communicate with Ayano with the emotions before the time stop.

"You should improve your skills, Miss Kitahara, otherwise our strengths seem somewhat unequal."

"The advantage of women is that even if they reach the finish line several times in a row, they can still enjoy it, instead of needing some time to recover like men."

Ayano untied Qingyou's belt and did it slowly, looking up at him, "By the way, Qingyou-kun also prefers girls who give sufficient feedback and take the initiative."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure." Ayano's fingers slid into Qingyou's shirt, "Your body tells me so."

……

After enjoying the wonderful service, Qingyou leaned against the stone screen, sat on the ground carefree, unscrewed a bottle of water to drink, and tried to find the chewing gum in the backpack... No, where is my chewing gum?

Including the water cup, this is the second time that I have lost something small for no apparent reason.

"Could the cats on this island have a habit of taking away tourists' belongings?" Qingyou muttered.

"Here." Ayano handed a piece of chewing gum to Qingyou's mouth.

It is the brand he is used to eating, and the taste is the same.

Then she chewed one herself, muttering as she chewed, "It would be most appropriate to smoke a cigarette at this time, but I don't like the taste of tobacco."

"Oh, then you're not traditional."

"What traditional school?"

“Have you ever considered e-cigarettes?”

"Neither do I. I only like chewing gum."

"I also."

"Oh~ As expected, I said we would definitely have something in common."

"Taste buds' preferences can't really be considered a resonance..."

Ayano laughed comfortably a few times, leaned over to kiss Qingyou, and leaned into his arms. Qingyou embraced her delicate body tacitly, and placed his right hand on her thigh. The two of them chewed gum quietly together, with their backs against the cover of the stone screen, with the electronic silence of the entire island as the background sound of nature.

After a long while, Ayano finally spoke up: "Don't worry. This won't harm either of our lives. We're both happy, so it's a win-win situation."

"I hope so." Qingyou played with the fabric of Ayano's dress. "It is said that if a couple agrees to only have sex but not life, one of them will turn bad over time."

"Are you not confident? Do you think you will fall in love with me?"

"I'm worried about you."

"...What a narcissistic man." Ayano sneered, "Love is something that only three-year-olds would believe in. If I still believe in it, wouldn't I be as stupid as Airi?"

"Is Airi stupid?"

"She may be very smart in her career, but she may be worse than a three-year-old child in terms of love. You may not like her, but she definitely likes you."

Ayano said something shocking with great confidence, but Qingyou was not the type to be overwhelmed by the momentum of words: "Don't talk nonsense, you might as well say that Xiaotong likes me, it's easier to deceive people this way."

"..."

After staring at him for a few seconds, Ayano looked away and thought to herself that this man was weird. Sometimes he was as skilled as an old pervert in the love field, but in other aspects he was stupid. There was a kind of beauty that made it hard to tell whether he was fishing or not.

These seemingly contradictory characteristics are much more complicated in Ayano's view, and there must be some solid logic behind them.

Looking at Qingyou chewing gum, she seemed to understand Qingyou's logic a little bit.

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a narcissist?”

"Ah, I know that. I don't need anyone to tell me." Qingyou replied calmly.

Narcissism is not necessarily a bad thing. Once narcissism reaches a certain critical value, people will develop an endogenous self-confidence.

The difference between "endogenous" and "exogenous" is that it does not need to rely on external things in the objective world. For example, "I am rich, so I am awesome" is a typical exogenous self-confidence, but Qingyou's narcissism does not need any reason.

This is consistent with Ayano's speculation. As for further speculation, only Ayano as a bystander can understand it.

Because they are too narcissistic and do not doubt their own judgment, they are often misled by themselves.

How could Aili not like him? The happiness in her eyes was overflowing when they were dancing. Aili even took the initiative to kiss him. It is difficult to fake a girl's passionate kiss.

"So, what is the relationship between Qingyou-kun and Airi?"

"The relationship between the rebellious son-in-law and the hot-tempered young lady."

“It’s about the part that others don’t know.”

"Then, Miss Kitahara, please share with me some parts that others don't know, parts other than the painter."

"..."

The only thing Kitahara Ayano didn't want Qingyou to see through was this. If he just thought she was the illustrator of the book, it would be fine, but the key was that she didn't want him to know her pen name, as there was always a sense of social death that came from breaking the dimensional wall.

"Speaking of which, I have been studying a lot of the top works in the book industry recently..."

"Has Qingyou-kun been infected by Aili? When you talk about this kind of thing, it sounds like business research."

"Guess what? I think this Metamorphosis Butterfly teacher is a perfect match for Miss Kitahara."

Qingyou tried to tease her, but she was stubborn and refused to admit it, so he opened the book he had collected on his phone and showed it to Ayano.

Ayano covered her mouth and laughed exaggeratedly: "Qingyou-kun is really good at joking. This style of painting obviously has nothing to do with me."

"Oh, then just think of me as giving a sharp review of your colleague. After all, this teacher is very popular, and I think Miss Kitahara must have heard of him."

Chapter 138: Airi's poor imitation of Xiaotong

Qingyou began to enthusiastically analyze the artistic characteristics of Teacher Tu Shengdie, using the most exaggerated words.

During this process, Ayano's expression was visibly broken, and she seemed to be about to blush, but she was a professional in the book world after all. How does one say that? "Professional players should be able to control their emotions well," and Ayano did it.

"Keep your art analysis in your notebook and share it with your juniors at school at the pub, Uncle Chihaya!" Ayano complained, and then stuck to Qingyou again, "Give me one more time."

Then he started moving very hard.

It is quite uncomfortable to be called uncle by people of the same age, but this also proves that the drawing board devil is indeed a little vulnerable.

Qingyou was increasingly amazed at his own excellent decision. He had to hold on to the key information that the hacker had found in his hands for the purpose of gambling!

Proof that Ayano is a fake, in exchange for the removal of his own handle? It's useless. The drawing board devil will still find other ways to show off. He will make her unsure whether she has been exposed or not, and will bring it up from time to time to make her feel uncomfortable. Only then will Qingyou feel comfortable.

After all, if I really want to be Ayano's partner for a long time, I must find a weakness that will make her embarrassed.

Soon after, the pavilion fell into silence again.

Ayano rested her head on Qingyou's chest, breathing heavily.

Her cardiopulmonary function was still a little strained in the face of Qingyou's rapid attack of those seemingly magical hands.

"Hoo...I...cough cough!"

"Slower."

Qingyou gave her a sip of water, and finally Ayano calmed down. However, the first words she said were full of resentment.

"I don't paint so many commercial things."

"Indeed." Qingyou agreed, thinking to himself, wow, so this is where the idol burden is.

This reminded him of a while ago when Teacher Tu Shengdie had tweeted to complain about being dissatisfied with his own creation. At that time, fans were all praising him below. Even Qingyou himself thought that Teacher Tu was just trying to be a bit pretentious, but he didn't expect the boomerang to come so quickly.

Ayano's artistic ideals are absolutely noble and shining, which is in stark contrast to her vulgar and humorous personality.

"The power supply is almost restored. Get up first and I'll help you get back in shape."

"...Is Qingyou-kun always so gentle to his teammates every time he cheats?"

"I'm not sure. So far, I've only had sex with you secretly."

Things in dreams don’t count… Qingyou muttered silently, stood up and stood behind Ayano, clenched one hand into a fist, and punched a certain acupuncture point on Ayano’s back in a tricky way.

Ayano felt a black screen before her eyes and she screamed like a piglet being chased. When she came to her senses, Qingyou had already helped her tidy up her appearance.

Qingyou motioned for her to use her mobile phone to look in the mirror. Her messy hair disappeared, and the blush on her neck and face faded away at the speed of light.

Hearing the sound, Hitomi Shimamura rushed over to check the situation. Qingyou said that Teacher Kitahara was not feeling well, so he gave her a light massage.

"I was so scared. I thought Ayano had encountered something terrible." Hitomi Shimamura stroked her gently rising and falling chest, still feeling a lingering fear.

Thinking of Qingyou patting Ayano on the back on the plane, Shimamura Hitomi couldn't help but feel a little jealous, and even had an absurd idea: Why is she so healthy? It would be great if she also had the chance to be taken care of by a senior.

"Hey - Teacher Chihaya, I also want to try your cooking skills!" Takagi Akane took the opportunity to act coquettishly.

"This is a benefit exclusively for teachers. Students are not allowed to have it." Qingyou said seriously, "Why would a child who is so young get a massage?"

"But Kitahara-sensei is also very young. Does that mean that in Chihaya-sensei's eyes, Kitahara-sensei is already an auntie?"

This question is a bit sharp.

Immediately Qingyou felt Kitahara Ayano's unfriendly gaze and Shimamura Hitomi's confused gaze... Well, the latter was nothing, it was green, healthy and harmless, Qingyou felt it every day in the office.

I couldn't help but secretly complain that Gao Muqian was not exiled to South America, but should be exiled to Wuyi Mountain to grow tea...

"You are wrong." Qingyou tapped Gao Muqian's head, "Between a child and an aunt, there is a creature called "Yuanjie". If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

"Woo woo~ Got it~"

Takagi Akane stuck out her tongue to act cute, and she felt as uncomfortable as if ants were crawling on her body.

I thought I could use the power of Yuhunling to launch a dimensionality reduction attack, but who knew that none of the people around Ai Li were easy to mess with.

Not to mention Qingyou's evil soul, Shimamura Hitomi is even difficult to be influenced by the most basic "suggestions". As for Kitahara Ayano... excluding the supernatural perspective, this guy is not simple!

Oh my god, so I practiced for three years and returned to Tokyo just to get angry?

"Ah, Takagi-san, I'm a little tired. Could you please help me cook for the picnic?"

Just when Takagi Akane was extremely angry, Ayano put on a flawless ladylike smile and accurately added fuel to the fire.

Takagi Akane responded with a twitching mouth, and lowered her head to fiddle with the cooking utensils gloomily.

When will this day end...

Although she was looking forward to the school trip, she had already begun to miss the simple environment of Chihaya Academy and the Bunkyo-ku apartment.

After all, she won't be bullied by Ayano there, nor will Ayano snatch away her hard-earned Azusa odora... People who are into art are really weird. Why would they like such an ugly, cute and unlucky color like Azusa odora?

After the power supply was restored, Ai Li finally arrived with her maid Kobayashi.
