Li Xuan watched the middle school girl carrying her things away with mixed feelings, lost in thought.

After some twists and turns, Li Xuan seized the opportunity to search for classroom [1-3]. However, he did not see Chu's shadow through the window!

"Not here!?"

The weather was sweltering, the sky was pitch black, and the corridor was deserted. Li Xuan stood outside with a look of astonishment on his face.

The situation has become even more unfavorable.

However, Li Xuan did not notice that a figure behind him had been observing him for quite some time.

After understanding what was going on, the middle school girl behind him revealed a faint smile, in which a small tiger tooth was slightly visible.

"If you can't find the classroom during lunch break, she's probably out shopping."

Li Xuan was startled. He quickly turned around and saw that it was the same female middle school student from before.

The middle school girl was all smiles, her hands behind her back, appearing and disappearing like a ghost. I was startled by her twice.

"Sir, are you looking for someone?"

The girl wasn't really afraid of him; she looked at him and asked.

“…Yes, I’m looking for someone…” Li Xuan calmed down and looked at the well-behaved girl. He asked, “Do you know Hina from Class 3, Grade 1? She’s a transfer student who just arrived today. I’m…I’m her brother.”

"In my first year, I only knew the younger students in the clubs. I'm a third-year student."

The girl replied.

Third grade, I see. She is indeed more mature than the other kids.

"Chih, Chih, I'll ask someone to ask a junior if he can find out where Chih from Class 3 is..."

The short-haired girl pulled out her phone and deftly pressed a few buttons.

"No, there's no need to go to so much trouble for you..."

Seeing this, Li Xuan said embarrassedly.

"Eh, but it's already been dialed..." The short-haired girl was slightly taken aback and showed Li Xuan that her phone was already dialing.

So fast!?

The call was connected very quickly.

—【Hey, Machi-senpai?】

The short-haired girl answered the phone after hearing the voice.

She asked carefully, and after waiting for about a minute, she heard the definite news from her junior.

"Hina is next to the vending machine downstairs in Building 4."

The short-haired girl told Li Xuan.

This girl seems quite reliable.

Li Xuan asked, "Then how do I get to Building Number Four?"

"Yes, after you go out from here, turn left, go around the courtyard, then walk twenty meters to the right. You'll see a shop. From the shop, go east along the path..."

The short-haired girl carefully explained the route to Li Xuan.

But this route was like walking through a maze. When Li Xuan heard about the path to the east, he had no idea how to proceed.

The girl named "Machi" noticed that the young man seemed to be getting anxious again.

That's true. After all, the school's various expansions and the reconstruction of residential roads have made the layout a bit strange. The roads aren't difficult to walk on, but they are a bit winding. Many old schools in Japan are like this.

The short-haired girl thought for a moment, then said in a very amusing tone, "There's really nothing I can do... It's already 12:30, that child must be very hungry..."

The tone of "There's really nothing I can do" even imitates the tone of an older man.

"Alright! Then let Komachi, who is also a younger sister, finish her work properly, sir. I'll take you over there."

The fifteen-year-old girl smiled and said.

※※※※

The school's backyard.

This place is filled with cherry blossom trees and various playground facilities.

"May I ask if you're a university student, sir?" the short-haired girl asked.

"...Yes, I'm still a sophomore in college." Li Xuan paused for a moment. He had originally intended to answer "no," but he was indeed still in college. He only became a yakuza after transmigrating. Perhaps by pretending to be a college student, the students at school wouldn't be so afraid of him.

"University is great! You can have fun and you don't have to face the pressure of getting into a better university anymore."

The short-haired girl looked at him and said with envy.

"No, not really. Although I have more time to play, I also have to study and take various certification exams, and my interpersonal relationships have become more complicated..." Li Xuan told her the truth.

Upon hearing "interpersonal relationships," the girl's eyes lit up, and she asked curiously, "So... no, senior, are you good at handling interpersonal relationships?"

"Not at all. I have no friends and I don't need any."

Li Xuan, with one hand in his pocket, gave a simple and straightforward answer.

The girl froze, thinking to herself, "No wonder I felt a bit familiar when I first saw him... But my brother doesn't have any friends, and this guy seems to refuse to have any... Is he just putting on a brave face?"

As a result, she seemed to have thought of something fun, and a sly smile appeared on her face.

"And your sister? You two are very close, aren't you?" the short-haired girl asked.

Li Xuan was stumped by the question.

"...It's alright." Li Xuan paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and said vaguely.

"Hehe. See, see, I could tell from your expression when you were looking for your sister... It's exactly the same expression as my Onii-chan's." The short-haired girl also showed off her brother a bit, saying, "You're a gentle brother, it's very easy to tell."

Li Xuan was slightly taken aback. Was that how he acted back then?

"However, no matter how cute your little sister is, you can't become too dependent on her. Senior, you need to know when to stop being a siscon. This is the sincere wish of our little sisters."

The short-haired girl seemed to understand and reminded Li Xuan.

Li Xuan was a little puzzled and curious about how she could have such awareness, so he replied, "Don't worry, it's not that serious."

"That's strange, how come you suddenly forgot to make a bento for your sister?"

The short-haired girl asked, puzzled.

That's a good question...

Li Xuan, forcing himself to speak, began to fabricate an explanation: "I forgot. Working overtime was so tiring, so I forgot. By the time I realized it, she had already gone to school..."

"This deserves a deduction. You can't let your brother forget to make your sister's lunch just because you're working hard... But if it were Komachi, she would make it for her brother."

The girl, who called herself Komachi, calculated his score and said...

Soon, Komachi noticed another detail and asked, "Since you forgot, why not just order takeout? Wouldn't it take too much time to make something special?"

“Well…” Li Xuan replied, “I’ve been coming home late lately and can only cook noodles, so I promised her last night I’d make her something delicious. I think she’s really looking forward to it. Even though I can eat it tonight, I figured she must really want something other than ramen, so I made it myself as soon as possible, otherwise I think she’ll be very disappointed.”

Komachi was stunned.

She had initially thought that this serious, aloof, and overly self-conscious young man in sunglasses would be the careless type, but she was surprised to find that he was quite thoughtful.

"Isn't that thoughtful? You made up for the points you just lost right away," Komachi praised with a smile.

Li Xuan looked at the warm-hearted and adorable junior high school girl and smiled back, finding her smile so healthy and cheerful.

In the eyes of this middle school student, it was like a warm flame suddenly appearing in the deep darkness shrouded by dark clouds.

It seems like the impossible is possible, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which will deeply attract people.

"...Um, which way to go next?"

Li Xuan saw the girl standing motionless at the intersection and then asked her a question.

"...On the right, we're almost there."

Komachi snapped out of her daze, pointed in a direction for Li Xuan to look in, and said.

After composing herself, she acted as if nothing had happened.

The two quickly arrived at the foot of Building 4, and sure enough, there was a row of vending machines.

What kind of person is Ah Xuan?

Suddenly, just as Li Xuan and the short-haired girl were about to walk out, he heard Chu's voice.

What's going on? Why is he suddenly the center of attention?!

Li Xuan immediately stopped. The short-haired girl next to him wanted to go up, but after seeing the change in Li Xuan's expression, she realized something and stood with him at the corner of the building.

"How should I put it, he's a weirdo."

The girl next to the vending machine told a group of classmates what she had heard.

Li Xuan was completely dumbfounded.

"He has a short temper and glares at people easily. He's also very stingy with money; he hasn't given me a single penny of pocket money so far. He likes to collect things called figurines, and most of them are of characters with large breasts. He's a terrible cook. He only knows how to put his hands in his pockets, thinking it's cool. He's always trying to make money, but I've never seen him have any. He also likes to ramble on and on about all sorts of high-sounding principles..."

As Chu ate her bread, she began to introduce (criticize) her older brother.

Very vivid, very descriptive...

Upon hearing these descriptions, Komachi couldn't help but glance curiously at the furious "Onii-chan".

"This brat, so cute and innocent, I underestimated her. She can be quite sharp-tongued. What a traitor! Why did I go through all that trouble delivering lunchboxes to her...?"

Li Xuan found every word harsh and became agitated, rebuking them.

"Because they were busy, they forgot to give me money for lunch, and lunch too..."

Hina Nitta continued.

This sentence made Li Xuan unable to lift his head; he truly deserved to be scolded.

All the students had different expressions, and they all felt that Chu's older brother was indeed a strange person.

"Unlike other adults... living together now feels so-so, not bad."

However, in the blink of an eye, Nitta Hina gave a more positive evaluation.
