Lux, looking at the excited Harley Quinn, said curiously, "This isn't some kind of romantic city either..., is it...?"
Harley Quinn laughed and said, "You're such a cutie! How can there be so many romantic cities? This is a water city! This whole country is full of artistic atmosphere!"
"Water City?"
At this point, Nami and Hancock got excited. Nami asked curiously, "Why is Water City called Water City? Is it because there are many rivers?"
"Hmm... your idea is similar. Water City is a city where the whole thing feels like it's in water. You'll see soon enough. But honey, how long are we going to stay here?"
"Well... this country has a strong artistic atmosphere, so I definitely won't stay in one city for long. I'll probably stay for a day or two before moving on to the next city. The main reason I came here as my first stop is because it's quiet and suitable for relaxing for a while."
"How thoughtful! Strolling along the river, having dinner by the river, and quietly watching the sunset—hmm! That's wonderful. So, where's the next country? Summer vacation seems to have been over for ages already?"
Bai Yu nodded and said, "Next... heh... the Music Capital, and then those two in the far north..."
Soryuin Shion's eyes lit up as she said, "After listening to the music, how about we go to a quiet city to see the aurora and soak in hot springs? That sounds like a great ending! But... you probably have other plans?"
Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "There's no plan. That's basically it. If we have enough time, we can visit some neighboring countries along the way, like trying some authentic Western food."
Yuuko Ichihara said casually, "Anyway, it's not as good as yours, and besides, it's not like you can't cook it. But, are we just going to walk there like this?"
"You'll find a car after walking a short distance. As you know, the entire city is basically in the water, so the main modes of transportation are walking or boating."
"Oh...do you have a house here?"
"Yes, we have made preparations for most of the places we will be visiting along the way, but for the last stop, we will just choose a hot spring hotel."
Fortunately, Lucifer and the others had magic, otherwise, this high-value team would have been quite eye-catching. The city was neither too big nor too small, but when you actually walked in, you were greeted with a faint feeling of comfort.
It wasn't because it was quiet—how could this famous city lack tourists during the summer holidays? It was simply because of its historical and artistic atmosphere, coupled with exotic scenery that was completely different from the water towns of Jiangnan, that Jinx and her friends were looking around. Strolling through such a city was really nice.
Baphomet stretched and said, "This city is really nice! Honey! Do you think I should develop some real estate here? Maybe build a... water garden series?"
Well, these business-minded people immediately thought of how to make money, and the atmosphere changed subtly. Even Fiona, who was originally remarking that this place was suitable for a quiet life, suddenly started discussing it with her business acumen as the head of the Laurent family.
When they arrived at a mansion, they were taken aback. Yuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "Honey, where is this?"
"This is where we live. The land area here is rather limited, so a manor would be quite remote. It's not suitable for long-term stays, especially for experiencing local customs. A villa area would be too small and scattered, and it wouldn't be very quiet. So, a mansion is a good choice."
Harley Quinn clicked her tongue and said, "While Honey is right, but... what's the deal with this mansion?"
"Hmm!" xn
That's the key point! Bai Yu said with a smile, "This mansion... this mansion is quite interesting... right, Sheath Incense?"
"Hmm?"
Katahara Sayaka puffed out her cheeks and shouted, "I'm really sad, okay!"
Lucifer asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's going on?"
Yumiko said with a smile, "It's very simple. It was arranged by Grandpa Katahara for my husband and Sayaka. At that time, my husband and Sayaka had been together for quite a while, and they wanted to take some time to travel. This was their first stop, so Grandpa Katahara made the arrangements."
"And then what happened?"
"As soon as she got off the plane, She Xiang received a phone call and had to go to discuss business. She just had a meal here and left. And then... pfft... and then she went straight to the last country. In the end, she didn't even get to stay there and she even cried."
"Ah! I'm so annoyed!"
Upon hearing this, Yuuko Ichihara and the others burst into laughter without holding back. This was hilarious! It was true that Sheka was the most unlucky one in the family, as she could never run into Shiraha. Yumiko was the same, but she deliberately worked overtime to get a long vacation.
Gurefia sighed and said, "Sheath Fragrance, from now on, it'll be fine to stay at your own home..."
"Ok!"
Alice, that brat, immediately jumped in and said, "At least we can find a place to stay no matter what."
"Hahahaha!" xn
Even Yuno Gasai, who usually doesn't show much expression, chuckled twice. Shiraha smiled and shook his head, saying, "Alright, let's all go back and put our luggage away first. There's a banquet hall in the mansion with revolving tables, so we can start preparing a bit later. Also... Sheka, do you still remember your room?"
"Of course I remember! The five rooms I remember most clearly in my life are Dad's office, my office, your room, my own room, and this one! Waaaaah..."
Bai Yu smiled, shook his head, and said softly, "Little policewoman, come find me in the study after you've finished getting ready."
"Humph!"
“Hey... Caitlin, you....”
"Wei! Hurry up! We're exhausted from sitting here the whole way!"
"Ok?"

The rooms in the mansion were also very luxurious. After all, it was arranged by Katahara Metsudo, so how could they be bad? Lucifer and the others went to stroll around the mansion after choosing their preferred rooms.
Bai Yu didn't go to her own room either. It didn't matter whether she went or not, it made no difference. After all, Lucifer and the others would definitely still go to their own rooms. If there were any problems, they would solve them themselves. Lucifer and the others choosing a room was superfluous; it was all just for show.
Bai Yu was standing in front of a row of bookshelves in the study, holding a book in his hands and reading quietly. If Jabami Yumeko were here, she would definitely exclaim in surprise, "Huh? Honey, isn't this the book about the puppet you were looking at at the manor before?"
That's right, Bai Yu brought it and is comparing it with a related book in the study. Both books are in different languages, and Bai Yu understands both and is reading them with great interest.
The study was very quiet. Lucifer and the others had no intention of visiting it, or rather, they didn't at the moment. After all, they knew that Caitlin had something to say to Bai Yu, so they didn't bother her.
Just as Bai Yu was engrossed in reading, the quiet study suddenly made a very soft sound of the door opening. Bai Yu still didn't move, and it was unclear whether he heard it or not.
A small head peeked into the study. Long hair cascaded down her shoulders, she wore exquisite makeup, and a modern shirt and denim shorts that accentuated her stunning figure. It was Caitlin.
Caitlin watched for a while before letting out a sigh of relief and walking inside. Although her steps were steady, it was hard to say whether she was truly at peace inside.
Caitlin felt a sense of calm descend upon entering the study. The rich aroma of books soothed her emotions. Then she saw a man not far away, holding a pen and writing something on another book while referring to one.
Serious men are handsome and charming, especially Bai Yu, who is already very charming and has the added advantage of being blinded by love. Caitlin was immediately captivated by him.
After a long while, the sound of turning pages brought Caitlin back to her senses. She blushed and cursed herself for being so engrossed in reading.
Caitlin coughed lightly and said, "I...I'm here."
Bai Yu paused for a moment, closed the book, turned to look at Caitlin, smiled gently, and said, "Sorry, I was a little engrossed. Sorry to keep you waiting."
"No...no, I just arrived too..."
Unlike Jess, Bai Yu's gentlemanly demeanor has a refreshing and pleasant feel, while Jess's is too stiff. In addition, Bai Yu is much better, stronger, and more humorous than Jess, so he can be said to completely overwhelm him.
Bai Yu walked over, smiled, and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, Wei and the others should be waiting at the door."
"How...how did you know?"
Bai Yu smiled, shook his head, and gently flicked Caitlin's head, saying with a smile, "Because you two are good friends, let's go, there's still time, I'll take you somewhere."
"Hmm... Oh..."
Caitlin would normally be quite arrogant, but now she was surprisingly obedient, following Bai Yu quietly behind him, while at the other doorway.
"Hey Vi, you know Caitlyn, she wouldn't have run away, would she!" (Kathy)
"You think everyone's like you, you brat? Caitlin may be a bit of a tsundere, but she's still loyal. The sheriff's just joking with you, isn't he?"
“Indeed, Lux, you're unreliable, and you're a completely different kind of person from Caitlyn.” — Fiona
"Where am I unreliable?! Is it wrong for me to pursue love?!" by Lux
"I...I also feel that Lux, you can be quite unreliable at times..." by Sona
"Huh?! I.."
Before Lux could finish speaking, the study door opened, and Fiona and the others instinctively looked up, only to be met with Bai Yu's somewhat puzzled gaze.
Caitlin covered her face. These teammates were something else. At this moment, the few pretty girls were squatting at the door of the study, arguing about very childish topics. Caitlin really wanted to say that she didn't know them, but she just couldn't.
Fiona quickly stood up, coughed lightly, and said, "Um...we..."
Bai Yu smiled and said, "Alright, I knew it when I saw this little policewoman. Let's go, I'll take you to an interesting place."
"An interesting place?"
Fiona and the others exchanged glances and followed. Watching Bai Yu and the others leave, Harley Quinn, on the balcony, propped her chin on her hand and said, "Hmm, I'm so envious. Being able to go out with Honey. But as expected of my darling Honey, he's so handsome no matter how you look at him."
Albedo, who was also resting her chin on her hand, nodded and said, "I really like you. Every word you say is true. My husband is just so handsome no matter how you look at him."
"So if you two were in my company, I would definitely cater to you. I really want to go out and have fun with my darling."
Seeing Baphomet and his two companions propping their faces up on the balcony and looking down at the three below, Lucifer and the others' eyes twitched. Good heavens, you guys are really outrageous.
Yakumo Yukari clicked her tongue and said, "I think if Caitlin and the others don't get any results from this trip, then it'll be a waste, right, Shizuka?"
Justice nodded and said, "That's true, isn't it, Chihiro?"
“Uh…” x2
Soryuin Shion, holding a glass of red wine, said irritably, "What are you two afraid of? What are you waiting for? You just stare at the diamond ring and grin like an idiot every day, but neither of you wants to wear it? What? Are you waiting to come and steal the bride at the wedding? We'll wear wedding bands, and you'll wear one wedding band and one diamond ring? You're really something."
Hiratsuka Shizuka sighed and said, "I...I...I don't know what I'm afraid of..."
"Tch~" xn
Yuko Ichihara thought for a moment and said, "You two, I have a question for you."
"Hmm?"

Chapter 572 Is he one of us or one of our own? Hiratsuka Shizuka decides (Please subscribe~)
Hiratsuka Shizuka and Sengoku Chihiro both looked puzzled, but they were still worried that Ichihara Yuuko might find out something, since Ichihara Yuuko was definitely one of the most troublesome people in the family.
Yuko Ichihara said casually, "I know what you two are thinking. Don't worry, I'm not in the mood to tease you right now. There's no point in teasing you anyway. The question is very simple: do you two like being single?"
"Of course I don't like it!"
"Then don't act like you like it. I'm really fed up with you two. You should do the math. You'll be very busy in the second half of this year, and don't even think about next year. You'll be lucky if you even have a summer vacation next year."
Chihiro Sengoku asked blankly, "Isn't there a summer vacation next year?"
Lucifer said irritably, "If you've thought about going during the summer vacation, go ahead, no one's stopping you. But don't come to the wedding either! Are you kidding me? Getting married the year after next? Next summer will be too late for the wedding, and you still have the leisure to go on vacation? How heartless are you?"
"Oh! Right, right! I got so nervous I forgot... But speaking of which, do I need to prepare six months in advance?"
Upon hearing this, Harley Quinn immediately turned around and said, "Hey! My dear sister, you should know that our family is special. Not to mention anything else, just the various designs, preparations, rehearsals, guest lists, time calculations, arranging vehicles, accommodations, and gifts alone keep us very busy."
Leonora nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right, that's not all."
Gurefia coughed lightly and said, "The best man and maid of honor's attire, the venue, the wedding banquet, the decoration of the new house, and so on, it feels like even half a year is not enough."
Hiratsuka Shizuka said blankly, "That's amazing..."
While reading a horror novel, Aoandon casually said, "So, you guys should really take this seriously. After all, no matter what, you don't have as much time as you think. To put it bluntly, you only have the short summer vacation."
"When do you guys plan to confess? New Year's? Several parents will be there. And Christmas is even worse, it's back-to-back. Not to mention anything else, when you go back there's the Totsuki Autumn Election, followed by the school festival, and then U17. So, you guys better hurry up and confess."
Hiratsuka Shizuka thought for a moment and said, "I understand... Senpai, I think we really can't continue like this..."
"That makes sense..."
Remilia sat to one side, propped her face up with her hand, yawned, and said, "That's what you say, but neither of you has taken any action. You two are really driving me crazy."
"Hmm!" xn
On the other side, Bai Yu was also walking slowly with Caitlin and the others. Although Lux and the others were very curious, they didn't say much and just followed obediently.
Before long, the group arrived at a park. Bai Yu found a coffee shop, sat down, and said with a smile, "Sit down. It's absolutely quiet here. At this time, neither this coffee shop nor this park has many people coming back."
Caitlin looked around before tilting her head and saying, "Why are there so few people in the parks of tourist hotspots?"
Bai Yu chuckled and said, "Because this coffee shop is only open for two hours each at 9 pm and 8 am, no one comes during those times."
"Isn't anyone going to take pictures?"
"They might come, but as you can see, this cafe is in a corner of the park, and not many people come here. Even the regulars don't come back that early. Do you come here for sightseeing?"
Lux and the others shook their heads. Absolutely not. They might come to the park, but the road just disappeared along the way, leaving only a small path with nothing else. What was the point of going there?
Bai Yu leaned back in his chair and chuckled, saying, "Alright, stop worrying about why no one's coming. Little policewoman, what are you trying to say? Don't worry, nobody comes here, and you won't be nervous in this environment, will you?"
Upon hearing this, Caitlin and the others froze. Caitlin clenched her fists and sat opposite Bai Yu. Caitlin thought she was very calm, but her flushed face showed that she was not calm at all.
Sona had stopped talking and kept her head down. Vi also looked to the side. Only Fiona was slightly calmer, but she was also clenching her fists tightly.
Bai Yu tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
After a moment of silence, Caitlin said softly, "I...I want to ask you a question."
