"Mrs. Tokinoya and Shun were both busy, and Mio was home alone. I thought she would be lonely, so I invited her to my house."

After the two of them greeted each other, Izumi explained to Aine why Tokinoya Mion was here.

"..."

Thinking about the current situation of the Tokinoya family, Aine understood the general situation just by listening to Izumi's explanation. Then she looked at Tokinoya Mio with a complicated look, and then she smiled, took the initiative to walk to Tokinoya Mio's side, and started talking to her.

As for Quan, he prepared lunch for the three of them by himself. Seeing the two girls chatting harmoniously there, for Quan, it was the best thing.

After Quan prepared lunch, the three of them sat at the dining table together.

Although Aine initially hoped that Izumi would go out with her, when she found out that Noya Miu was a guest at home, she knew that she couldn't go out shopping today.

But even so, she still behaved warmly and gently when facing Tokinoya Mion.

……

"You, went shopping with Mio?"

In the evening, Aine and I sent Mio back home. On the way home, Aine glanced at Izumi beside her.

"She was always at home and didn't have much chance to go out. At that time, you were still sleeping and I didn't have anything to do, so I thought about taking her out shopping. Staying at home for a long time would have a bad effect on both the body and mind."

"So...what's the deal with buying her socks in all different styles?"

Chihaya Aine was a little concerned about the fact that Izumi took Tokinoya Mion shopping, but it was understandable. However, she was particularly concerned about the fact that Izumi bought more than ten pairs of socks for Tokinoya Mion, and she stared at Izumi with narrowed eyes.

Since her legs cannot move, Tokinoya Mio basically doesn't need to go out, and considering her physical condition, she usually doesn't wear socks at home, so...

"You are doing this to satisfy your own fetish, right?"

Facing Aine's questioning, Izumi looked very calm.

"Mio, she will stand up again sooner or later. I just believe it."

"..."

Aine was speechless at his serious look. After a moment of silence, she rolled her eyes.

"By that time, she will have grown up, right? She won't be able to wear those socks, right?"

In Chihaya Aine's opinion, it would be difficult to cure Tokinoya Mion's legs under the current circumstances, and it would take many years before technology advances and she can be cured.

"There's still enough time now, do you want to go shopping together?"

"It's getting dark already."

Chihaya Aine muttered in frustration. She was very depressed. It was already late and her parents were probably already waiting for them at home. How could they have time to go shopping in the mall?

"Just call home. Don't you want to go shopping?"

"..."

miss you.

Facing Izumi's 'seduction', Aine pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to Izumi's invitation.

After calling home and informing them that they would be back late, the two took the subway to a shopping mall in Shibuya together to make final preparations for their vacation to the beach.

Chihaya Aine originally just wanted to go to the mall to look around, but after arriving there, she didn't know why she had several shopping bags in her hands, and in them there were many pairs of different types of socks.

Receiving a gift should be a very happy thing, but... when the gift is someone's hobby, Chihaya Aine finds that she doesn't seem to feel happy at all, and feels a little tired.

She had never noticed that Quan had this habit before, but now...she felt that it would be better if she hadn't noticed it.

"You didn't give Shuangshi a pair of socks as well, did you?"

Although Izumi gave her a lot of socks, fortunately, in addition to socks, he also bought her a lot of other gifts, which made Aine feel better. On the way home, the two of them walked under the street lights. She looked at Izumi beside her and asked.

"No."

"Really?"

It was very strange. Chihaya Aine was a little skeptical. He didn't give any socks to his girlfriend, but gave so many socks to his sister. Chihaya Aine didn't quite understand why.

Although Tokinoya Mio and Izumi have no relationship, from the perspective of age and relationship, Aine thinks that the relationship between her and Izumi should be similar to that of siblings.

After thinking for a moment, Chihaya Aine seemed to understand something, and her gaze towards Izumi became more subtle.

"Could it be that there is some worse habit that is not suitable for her family and sister to know about, so only Shuangshi knows about it?"

As she walked home with Izumi, Aine couldn't help but wonder what kind of quirk Izumi had that was even worse that he would hide.

"Come to think of it, Izumi mentioned earlier... something about whether to take it seriously or not... and about the matter of Mikazuki Yozora, could it be that..."

A word that couldn't be any worse appeared in her mind - cuckolding.

"..."

Izumi was confused when he noticed that Aine, who was walking beside him, suddenly kept a distance from him and looked at him nervously.

"what happened?"

"...No, it's nothing."

After hesitating for a while, facing Quan's question, Aine still did not ask Quan directly.

In Aiyin's opinion, her brother may have buried some of his worries in his heart because of his family's expectations and her trust, which led to a little inner distortion and the birth of some strange habits, but he would never have such a bad hobby as "cuckolding".

'Watch again.'

But she couldn't completely rule out this possibility, so she decided to pay a little more attention in the following days.

403. Black hole-like attraction

"Are you going out today?"

With nothing to do, Quan was sitting in the living room, watching a morning drama full of inspiration and sunshine. He heard a familiar sound of footsteps coming from the stairs behind him. He slowly turned around and saw Aiyin in a plain dress. Her eyes were slightly tilted towards the door, and she was slowly walking down the stairs.

Judging from his expression and clothes, he should be getting ready to go out.

"Hmm?"

Aine rushed down the stairs and after hearing Izumi's voice, she noticed that her brother was sitting in the living room watching TV. Her eyes stayed on the morning drama for a moment, and her gaze fell steadily on Izumi's face.

"Well, aren't we going to the beach soon? Today I'm going shopping with everyone and buying some daily necessities."

Looking at his sister who was getting ready to go out, after hearing her explanation, Quan turned his gaze back to the TV in front of him.

"be careful on the road."

"Know~"

In response to Izumi's concern, Chihaya Aine answered in a light voice, walked to the entrance, took out her shoes, squatted slightly, and after putting them on, she turned around and looked in the direction of the living room.

"Do you need me to bring something back?"

Quan, who was sitting in the living room, thought for a while after hearing what she said. For a moment, he couldn't think of anything he needed to buy. After thinking for a moment, he just asked her to help bring some daily necessities.

It's rare that Aiyin is willing to help. If I refuse, I don't know when the next time will be.

Of course, after asking her for help, she will inevitably be asked to repay the other party, but the so-called feelings are accumulated in such comings and goings.

"I understand. If I remember it when I come back, I will help buy it back."

Aiyin, who was standing at the door, wrote down the things he asked her to bring after hearing what Izumi said, then opened the door and went out to go shopping with her bandmates. Originally, there were only her, Takamatsu Tomori, and Nagasaki Soyo, but after Takamatsu Tomori asked, Shiina Tachibana also joined the team.

As for Lenai...she asked in the group, but the other party did not give any response.

"Maybe he didn't see it."

After walking out of the house, feeling the scorching heat waves from the scorching sun in the sky, Aine had already thought of retreating back to the house, but when she thought of the others who were still waiting for her, she bit her lip, walked to the shadow of the roadside, and walked towards the subway.

After his sister had been out for a while, while watching the commercial that was playing, Izumi picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Goto Ichiri, asking her if she was ready to go out.

Goto family.

Ichiri Goto was lying on the floor in his room, staring at the ceiling with empty eyes, while the cell phone beside him was playing a popular science video about the universe and black holes.

In her mind, she was imagining herself turning into a black hole, constantly absorbing Chihaya Izumi who was floating around her, and trying to fill the gaps inside her black hole with countless small 'Chihaya Izumi planets'.

"Can a black hole be filled? If there are countless springs... it should be possible to fill it up, right? Then the springs will multiply more springs in the black hole... I and the springs... at the end of the universe... a new world..."

Her scattered thoughts made her think about the universe from the black hole, and then about the meaning of life, and thus began to consider the existence of a new world.

When she had already thought about what kind of relationship she and Izumi would have in other parallel worlds, a sudden "ding" message reminder interrupted her thoughts and woke her up from the happiness called "Goto Ichiri". She turned her head blankly to look at her mobile phone, but was not in a hurry to check the message.

In her opinion, it was just another advertisement or a fraudulent text message.

"Dad and Mom are not at home today, Erli is also outside watching TV... I am alone... It shouldn't be a message from my family, so... It must be an advertisement."

Although she has joined the band and made many new friends, everyone seems to have their own lives after the holidays, and her contact with Quan is basically maintained before bedtime. She doesn't think anyone will contact her at this time.

'Come to think of it, what is Quan doing right now... He's so gentle, there should be a lot of girls asking him out, right?'

Thinking of this, Goto Ichiri fell into a state of loss and inferiority again. He felt that if he continued thinking about it, he would want to disappear from this world, so he quickly picked up his mobile phone, ready to use it to divert his attention.

[We are going to the beach soon. Have you prepared your luggage and belongings? ]

This was a topic that had been asked many times when chatting with Quan before. It seemed that Quan was worried that she would be careless and forgetful, so he would ask her the same question every two or three days during this period.

Although the reminders were a bit too frequent, it did make Goto Ichiri notice the details that she had overlooked, such as items like sunscreen, which she had not thought of before. It was only with Izumi's reminder that she went out and bought a small bottle.

She used to stay at home in the summer and had no use for this.

'By the way, if my skin gets a little darker, will it make me look more like a hottie or a popular girl?'

Goto Ichiri couldn't help but think of the dark-skinned hot girls who appeared in Shinjuku and Shibuya. He wondered if Izumi would like this type of girls. He was eager to try, but he was worried that if he changed, it would cause Izumi's attitude to change.

Compared to instability, she still thinks now is more appropriate.

[After listening to Quan's advice, I have already bought the necessary items... The others have also made preparations.]

Whenever you hear the word "summer", you can't help but think of the "sea". Goto Ichiri didn't have this opportunity in the past, but now he can create summer memories with everyone in the band, and he can't help but feel deeply grateful to Izumi in his heart.

Thinking back to the time she met Quan at school until now, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Quan was simply her 'God-sama'.

"Perhaps, my previous life was just to wait for Quan to appear?"

Thinking of this, Goto Ichiri couldn't help but wonder what he should do now to thank Izumi for everything he had done for him.

[Does the band have any activities in the past two days?]

When Goto Ichiri was thinking about what "tribute" she should prepare for Izumi, she saw his new message and her expression became a little subtle as she just thought of the gods and the shrine maidens.
