I have pure love with them

The expression full of doubt made Quan, who was sitting next to her, smile slightly.

"Just met a friend who knew these two."

"girl?"

Facing Izumi's smile, Aine had already accepted this girl as 'Wakaba Mu' in her heart. Staring at Izumi in front of her, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

'That girl seems to be a guitarist? And she seems to be in the same school as Shuangshi... Did he know her from Shuangshi? Did he just ask for two autographs?'

Aine was full of confusion but didn't know where to start. She watched as Izumi took the signature from her hand and walked towards the stairs under her gaze, leaving Aine sitting on the sofa with a confused and depressed look on her face.

Izumi placed the signatures of the two famous artists in an empty space on his bookshelf and stared at them for a moment. He then turned back and took out the signatures of all the members of 'CRYCHIC' from his drawer and put the two signatures together.

“Come to think of it, I think I can keep a copy of Aine and the others’ band autographs, too?”

Staring at the two autographs on the bookshelf, he suddenly thought of his sister's current band.

"I just don't know how long their band can perform... for a lifetime... can they do it?"

With a soft sigh, Quan left the room and went back to the living room. Looking at Aine who was staring at him seriously, he walked up to the girl and tapped her forehead lightly.

"Have you asked other people in your band about the last time I talked to you?"

"Ok?"

Seeing Aine’s bewildered expression, Izumi made a wave motion with his right arm and whispered softly.

"ocean."

"Ah...I forgot."

After hearing what Izumi said, Aine suddenly remembered what she had talked about with Izumi yesterday. However, it was already evening when she talked about it yesterday. When she got home, she fell asleep soon after. Today, she had forgotten about it along with her dream last night.

"..."

Looking at his sister in front of him, Quan could only let out a helpless sigh.

"I'll ask them later."

Seeing the helpless expression of Izumi, Aine also looked a little embarrassed, and showed a forced smile.

"There is plenty of time, so there is no need to rush."

Izumi shook his head slightly. He wasn't really anxious, but was just worried that Aine had forgotten about it.

"I don't think there's any need to ask Shuangshi... She's definitely willing, but I don't know about the others, so we need to confirm it."

Her eyes fell on Quan and she curled her lips slightly.

Quan pretended not to notice Aine's little emotion and just nodded slightly.

……

At night, I was sitting in front of the computer, confirming the growth of my funds during this period, when my cell phone suddenly vibrated. I glanced at it and found that it was a message from Nagasaki Shuangshi.

[During the holidays, are you planning to go to the beach?]

“Did Aine send her a message?”

After glancing towards his sister's room, Quan withdrew his gaze and sat quietly at the table. He looked at the message sent by Nagasaki Shoyo and after thinking for a moment, he slowly tapped the screen to reply.

[I have some idea, but it has not been finalized yet, so I haven’t had time to ask you yet]

Nagasaki Soyo was lying on the bed, looking at the message sent by Izumi. She pursed her lips slightly, and the doubts in her heart disappeared in an instant.

[It seems like a lot of people will be invited?]

355. Does it have a flavor? Yes, no, no, no, does it?

Seeing the message sent by Nagasaki Soyo, Izumi slowly sat down on her bed, then slowly lay down, staring at the message she sent, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

[Nothing has been confirmed yet. Maybe by then, the trip may be cancelled due to various reasons.]

[Is that ok?]

Nagasaki Shoyo, who was also lying on the bed, looked at Izumi's answer and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

From Chihaya Aine's mouth, she heard that they were planning to rent a beach villa that could accommodate many people. She didn't have any clear understanding of this, but since it had something to do with the word "villa", she thought the cost wouldn't be cheap.

[Although it’s not a lot, I have saved up some living expenses. If it’s not enough, I can help to pay for it.]

Quan, who was flipping through his contact list, saw a message from Nagasaki Shoyo, so he clicked on it and read it. His eyes stayed on the message and his expression gradually became subtle.

He opened his mouth and stared at the message sent by Nagasaki Souyo. He reached out and gently placed his hand on his forehead, then began to rub it.

[With Aine's small stash of money, it should be enough]

Seeing the news about Nagasaki Soyo, Izumi didn't know how to respond. After hesitating for a moment, he used Aine as his shield and passed over the topic.

Nagasaki Shoyo, who had been waiting for a reply from Izumi, looked at the message sent by Izumi with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

[Well, then...can you accompany me to buy a swimsuit?]

The news about Nagasaki Soushi fell into Quan's eyes, but the figure of the girl emerged in his mind. Then he was silent for a while and gave a positive answer.

……

"Duel! Let's duel! Quan! If you lose, join our team, participate in the competition together, and win the championship!"

For some reason, when Quan thought that the matter was over, Sendou Xiaodou suddenly became excited again, his whole body filled with passion and youthful spirit, and pointed at Quan and issued a duel invitation.

Tokinoya Shun, who was sitting next to him, had already guessed what he was thinking when he heard the word "duel" suddenly come out of Sendou Xiaoto's mouth. After listening to Sendou Xiaoto's speech, the only thought left in his mind was "as expected". He glanced at Izumi who didn't react, and didn't say anything.

Inazuki Nozomi was also surprised by Sendo Xiaoto's sudden words. She looked up in astonishment and glanced at Sendo Xiaoto. When she saw that Quan was indifferent, she bit her lip lightly and tried to dissuade Sendo Xiaoto.

"don't want……"

"can."

Before Inazuki Nozomi could finish her words to stop Sendou Xiaodou, Izumi, who was sitting on the side, agreed.

"Eh?"

Inatsuki Nozomi was stunned, and Tokinoya Shun also looked at Izumi in surprise.

"real?!"

Sendou Xiaodou, who originally didn't have much hope, looked at Quan excitedly after hearing what Quan said.

"If you win, I'll join the team, but...if you lose, then this Friday, after school, you need to wear a maid outfit and dance the 'Bunny Dance' at the school gate. You should have heard of the famous 'Bunny Dance', right?"

Facing Quan's smile as warm as the spring breeze, the originally smiling Sendou Xiaodou's expression had become stiff on his face, and the finger pointing at Quan began to tremble slightly, as if hesitating whether to take it back.

“Is it too serious?”

"Compared to 200 million yen, this condition is not too much, right? Even if it is one-fifth, it is still 200 million yen. If you stand on the streets of Shibuya and offer a reward of million yen, I don't think many people will refuse it, right? Isn't it reasonable?"

Sendou Xiaodou, who was standing in front of Quan, was silent for a moment, rubbed his forehead with his hand, and was obviously in a dilemma.

After a moment, he sighed and sat back in his original position.

It was already difficult to defeat Quan, and now he had to bear the punishment after failure. His heart began to waver, and there was no possibility of defeating the opponent at all.

"Can I do that?"

Seeing that Sendo Xiaodou gave up the challenge, Inazuki Nozomi looked at Izumi with a smile.

"Okay, if you lose, you can put on some panda circles under your eyes, put on some yoga clothes, and do the 'bunny dance' at the school gate."

"Why do you have more conditions than that guy Xiaodou..."

Inazuki Nozomi, who originally thought that it was no big deal for her to wear a maid uniform, became conflicted after hearing Izumi's answer, and then chose to give up.

"You can play together as two people, but if you lose, you will still have to take these two penalties."

Seeing the two men retreating, Quan, who suddenly became interested, relaxed some conditions and began to encourage the two people in front of him.

"..."

Knowing very well that in front of a master, people with weak strength, no matter how many there are, will only be treated as human machines, Sendou Xiaodou and Inazuki Nozomi, looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"Ok?"

Feeling Quan's gaze on him, Tokinoya was stunned for a moment.

"I also?"

"It's okay, you lose, just let Mio wear the maid uniform."

"...Then forget it."

After hearing that the price of his loss would be borne by Mio, Tokinoya Shun immediately backed off. He didn't want his punishment to be borne by his own sister.

"Mio? Wait! Shun! Come on! I'm willing to accept this bet!"

However, after hearing what Izumi said, Xiaodou Sendou, who had already retreated, instantly changed his attitude and looked at Shun Tokinoya with firm eyes.

"For Wang, this is such a small price to pay. There is no reason for us to retreat!"

"No... you just want to see Mio wearing a maid uniform..."

Tokinoya Shun, who had already seen through Sendo Akatsuki's intention, couldn't help but feel a headache, and then firmly stated that he would not agree.

After being rejected, Sendou Xiaoto looked lost, while Inazuki Nozomi glanced at the two of them, and his gaze slowly fell on Izumi, his mood was a little complicated.

"I asked Ms. Nagasaki to investigate the situation earlier, but I don't know how it is now... When I have time, I will go to visit her at home."

Looking at the scenes in front of him, Izumi recalled in his heart that he had asked Ms. Nagasaki for help before. A thoughtful look came into his face, and then he fell silent. After dinner, he sent a message to Goto Ichiri and went back to the classroom first.

Goto Ichiri, who was waiting for Izumi to arrive in the library, saw the message from Izumi saying that she was going back to the classroom to rest. She squatted alone in the library, was silent for a moment, and then hugged her legs silently.

"But... well."

……

At the Hanegaoka Girls' Academy, when school was over, Toyokawa Shoko did not say goodbye to anyone in the classroom. She quietly left the classroom and came to the shoe cabinet alone.

After An Jing put on her shoes, she carried her schoolbag and left the school gracefully and calmly, just like she did in the Moon Forest.

She had already gotten the address from Quan yesterday, so after leaving school, she took the subway and came to the address given by Quan alone.

"here……?"

Looking at the high-end apartment in front of her, Toyokawa Shoko raised her fair chin, her amber eyes shining with light, and stared at the apartment building in front of her. Her heart was full of doubts, wondering if she had come to the wrong place, or if Izumi was playing a cheap prank on her.

Thinking of the good relationship between Izumi and Nagasaki Soyo, she, who was now fragile and sensitive, couldn't help but think more about it. She bit her lips lightly, and after struggling for a moment, she decided to trust the other party for the time being. She took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Izumi to confirm with him.
