I'm in Tokyo, and I'm a professional boyfriend.

"...Oh."

Shiina Iori maintained her sitting posture and calmed down again.

In fact, he didn't have any extra thoughts.

Not to mention that he already has so many women in his family that he can hardly keep up with them, the extent of the other party's perversion is beyond his reach.

It's likely that a person couldn't be trained without five, six, seven, or eight masters behind them.

He politely declined.

Once this storm had passed, the question of 'how many backup options Shiina Iori had' seemed to finally be resolved.

After confirming multiple times that similar incidents would not occur again, the Shiina family emergency meeting finally came to an end.

"Next time, let's bring her home to meet us first."

When Shiina Iori's legs were numb from kneeling, she heard Shino suddenly say this.

"Ok?"

Iori didn't react at first.

When he saw Shino's reluctantly raised eyebrows, his brain started working over again, and he opened his mouth.

"But...is it okay?"

"So now you know to ask 'It's okay'?"

Sano Shino was so angry that she kept making sarcastic remarks to him, but in the end she still managed to let out a difficult sigh and said reluctantly, "You've already agreed, what else do you want me to do?"

"Do you expect me to kick them out with a broom right now?"

"If you don't object, I don't mind being the bad guy. It would be best if I could also kick Xing out while I'm at it."

"No, no, no..."

Shiina Iori quickly shook her head, wrapping her arms around the little fox's slender waist: "I mean, our Lady Shino is so magnanimous, it makes me feel ashamed and full of respect. My gratitude is like a surging river..."

"Ugh! That's disgusting."

Sano Shino pushed him away with a look of disgust, stood up and tidied up the groceries she had brought back, putting them one by one into the refrigerator.

While tidying up, she said in a calm tone, "You might not believe it, but when we first went to the beach in the summer, we had a slight premonition."

What premonition?

Shiina Iori was taken aback and subconsciously asked a question in return.

Shino glanced at him and pouted, "It's like... 'Ah, everyone else in this room except me is probably all trapped by that guy, right?'"

"puff."

"...Um?"

After exchanging glances, Shiina Iori, who had almost burst out laughing, immediately returned to her previous serious expression.

You were the one who gave it away for free first.

Sinon seemed to sense what he was thinking, but since she had no words to refute him, she could only continue chopping vegetables while saying, "I just didn't expect it to actually turn out like this."

"And it's not just one by one, but a whole group of people who are trapped."

"That's absolutely outrageous."

"...That's really outrageous."

Shiina Iori stood beside her, nodding in agreement.

"what?"

The little fox raised a kitchen knife, pretending to chop him.

"Shina! Kitchen knife, kitchen knife..."

"I might as well kill you, you scumbag."

"How could that be? A jerk is the one who betrays a girl's heart, isn't he?"

"Then you're a scumbag x5! Five times the scumbag."

"..."

Shiina Iori was speechless and could only silently walk over to help wash the vegetables.

It seems that Shino is going to cook some Chinese food today, which requires a lot of preparation and involves some complicated steps.

"What did you say that child was again?"

"Bipolar disorder... is considered a psychological problem. It's just that it's not very convenient to speak. But recently it's starting to get better. When I say a single word, I have a lot of presence."

"Is she the girl who took the bullet for you last time?"

"Yes, it's her."

"And when you confessed your feelings? Did you speak with great conviction?"

"Ah... in a way, I guess so?"

"Humph."

"However, in my opinion... it would be better to just execute Shino on the spot that very night."

I'll chop you up!

The large cleaver was raised again, but this time Iori just smiled.

Yes~ Yes~

"Anyway, bring that child over here quickly...at least we need to find out what kind of person he is!"

"If she doesn't meet the requirements, don't blame me for kicking her out first."

"I won't show any mercy."

Yes~ Yes~

---Aside---

A broken bowl!

The college entrance exam is over! Wishing everyone all the best!

Merry Christmas! (May 516th)

"Ring ring ring"

The alarm clock rang precisely on time, only to be turned off by a large hand that always preceded it by a minute.

Winter has arrived, and getting up early in winter is always extremely difficult.

The warmth of spring inside the blankets, contrasting sharply with the subtle chill outside, always creates a striking visual effect through the human senses, unconsciously inducing a sense of laziness.

Shiina Iori, who habitually wakes up according to her biological clock, opened her eyes, but instead of getting up immediately before the next wave of drowsiness and laziness hit her, she lay quietly on her side in bed, listening to the even breathing beside her pillow.

When Sano Shino is awake, she is always fierce. At home, she often acts like a senior, giving people a mature and charming feeling like an older sister. Only when she falls asleep and listens to her quiet and long breathing does Shiina Iori really have the thought, 'Could she really be a little fox?'

Because she was lying on her side, her long, smooth hair was spread out on the pillow, and it was slightly itchy. There was a fine sheen of glistening on the girl's lips, her red lips were pouting, and her little nose was wrinkled, as if she was dreaming about something unhappy.

She is both charming and naive.

No one could have imagined the smug look she would have after waking up.

Only on special occasions, when Shiina Iori wakes up before her, does he feel a sense of conquest that's almost like Ah Q's.

Is this a common problem among men?

Shiina Iori watched quietly from the side. Before he knew it, the time on his phone screen had gone from 06:00 to 06:15. Half of the scheduled morning exercise time had already passed, and he still hadn't gotten up.

After noticing this, Iori finally cheered up, first wiping the water stains from Sinon's lips, and then preparing to start a new day.

The moment his fingertips touched the girl's cheek, his wrist was suddenly grabbed. "Swoosh~"

A faint sound reached my ears.

When Iori lowered her head, she met the little fox's cunning eyes, which carried a hint of provocation.

Shiina Iori's DNA seemed to stir first, then, as if remembering something, she lowered her voice seriously and said, "Stop fooling around, Nagisa-chan will wake up soon."

"She doesn't know?"

Sano Shino also lowered her voice, but her sentence structure was a matter-of-fact rhetorical question.

Fuminoki's apartment is only so big, and the rooms of several people are only separated by one wall. Even though the soundproofing of this room is indeed quite good, Shiina Iori's actions are as clear as day.

Everyone knows it!

Although the landlady was a little slow on the uptake, she was conservative but not stupid; she knew exactly what was going on long ago.

What else could Mr. Shiina say? He could only struggle like a trapped beast, trying to convince himself: the early bird catches the worm, and if he didn't get up now, he'd be late for class and cooking.

What classes are held on Christmas?

The little fox senior didn't bother to expose him, his breathing tickling one's ears: "Yui played games until after 4 a.m. last night, the music in that room never stopped, she definitely won't be able to get up before noon today." "Th-that Nagisa-chan..."

"Didn't you sneak in last night while the two of them were playing games together?"

"Yes.

As if all the reasons that supported his diligent life had been exposed, or perhaps he had regained the memories that had been thrown out last night, Shiina Iori's spirits lifted, and he immediately turned over in bed with a start:

"Since you're being so impolite, then I won't pretend to be a gentleman anymore!"

"No!'

Since that confession at the Nanami High School Cultural Festival, Shiina's life trajectory has not changed much.

People who need to go to work should go to work, and people who need to go to school should go to school.

The only slight difference is that, as December drew to a close, those who were attending high school or university began to gradually begin their winter break.

Only Ms. Sano, who recently passed her nutritionist exam, is still diligently running that pastry shop.

However, they recently announced plans to close down, seemingly preparing to take a break for a while.

On the first day of this short holiday, the Shiina family's breakfast started at one o'clock in the afternoon.
