I really don't want to be reborn.

Emmm...

That analogy is really not accurate!

Black Cat is really something, she started driving right away. Judging from her sneer, she probably wanted to kick the engine. This car is no good.

Kirino gritted her teeth, staring at the black cat's sneer, then suddenly relaxed and sat down.

She wants to be elegant.

Elegance is the motto of the Kousaka family.

Following her brother's example, Kirino struck at the heart of the matter: "Hey, how do you feel now that I, who started writing novels later, have already debuted?"

The cold laugh was stiff and stuck on the black cat's face.

This issue will probably be her biggest humiliation in ten years!

Kirino smiled and said, "You're not convinced? If you're not convinced, why don't you go and publish your own book? Staring at me won't do you any good."

"Woo-wa-ga-ga..."

The black cat angrily squeezed the paper cup on the table until it was deformed: "You sow, you...you stepped on another landmine I shouldn't have stepped on..."

"How is it?"

"You round-faced model, you're clearly just a middle school student, but your makeup is thicker than a wall!"

The grumpy and angry little black cat has started to launch a personal attack.

Kirino, of course, was not to be outdone, and her words were incredibly sharp.

Kyosuke and Saori sat down in front of the TV, and the three of them enjoyed this long-awaited scene, with Kyosuke finding it particularly amusing.

Last night, my sister was having a quiet and calm phone call with Black Cat. I can still vividly remember her shy "Ahhhhh Ricardo." Well, it turns out that trouble is about to happen as soon as they meet.

For the next ten minutes or so, the two continued this low-level argument. He quietly asked Saori about it and heard that the initial reason for their argument was a disagreement over "what to play first"...

Girls in the second and third years of junior high school actually argued over something like this?

But for some reason, Umaru and Saori looked very happy.

Especially Saori, whose big, round glasses couldn't hide the smile on her face at all. Kyosuke patted her on the shoulder: "...What are you laughing at?"

"Phew, because I was thinking about the first time I met you all... I can't believe half a year has passed since then. Wow, time really flies."

Time flies like an arrow, time flies by in a flash, it really does go by very quickly.

For him, many things that happened in the past six months were related to his sister. Six months ago, his sister was still giving him the cold shoulder, and his black cat was still a silent refrigerator. He had no friends.

He not only saw a side of his sister that no one else knew, but also met other people, and of course, some important things that had nothing to do with his sister.

"Excuse me, I need to go outside to take this call."

After Kyosuke left, the two guys who were arguing heatedly shut up and started whispering in each other's ears.

"It's so dark. The way you're looking at your brother today is a bit off."

Kirino's question showed that she cared a lot.

The black cat sighed inwardly; all it could do was sigh.

She didn't know how to face Kyosuke Kousaka. She was a little scared and afraid, but more than that, she felt a thrill—a terrifying thrill of cats everywhere...

A gentle, doting brother like her fits her aesthetic.

The fact that he appears to be a doting, warm-hearted guy on the outside, but is actually a cold-blooded demon king on the inside... made her so excited that she couldn't sleep.

Kirino gritted her teeth: "You really, you really do like him, didn't you!"

"No, no rusay!"

She did not deny liking him.

Just as Kirino was about to say something more, Kyosuke came in from outside: "Kuro Neko, do you want to come to Tokyo with me for a few days? Eriri will probably invite you there."

"what happened?"

"After Christmas comes winter comics, and she'll probably be too busy with her illustrations. Why don't you come with me to stay over there for a training camp..."

Kuroneko is familiar with Eriri.

She comes from a wealthy family and is a homebody—a golden retriever, a mouth painter, and the famous Kashiwagi Eri-sensei. In the eyes of the black cat, she's just a lazy bum, incredibly bored and rolling in money.

If we work on winter comics together these next few days—Kuro Neko was still pondering, but Kirino was already looking at him expectantly.

I want to go too! I want to go too!

Her brother looked at her gently and said, "You should take care to rest while I'm gone."

"So, are you free on Christmas Eve?"

If he goes to Tokyo, Kasumigaoka Utaha will go too; she knows that very well.

Kirino, of course, knew very well what Christmas Eve meant in Japan.

With mixed feelings, she asked the question, only to find her brother staring at her with a look she had never seen before. At that moment, she felt a chill run down her spine.

If I had to describe that feeling, it would be like when you're talking badly about your homeroom teacher behind your friend's back and you find that friend is standing right next to you.

After his younger sister averted her gaze, Kousaka Kyosuke still smiled and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

"Because... I want to do research on Christmas Eve, and I want to go to Shibuya to do research."

This is the simplest, and also the most pitiful, reason.

Kousaka Kyosuke fell silent, then nodded before Kirino could change her mind: "Anyway, it's a rest night, so it's no problem for me to go shopping in Shibuya with you."

He lowered his head to drink water, subtly avoiding the black cat's gaze.

How far will you go, my little bit?

Zhang Tui: "Cú Chulainn Died Again," a brief introduction follows.

I am Cú Chulainn, Ireland's most famous hero.

No one can survive my gun, because I will pierce the heart of every single one of them.

Of course, my greatest ability isn't my marksmanship, but rather my... exceptional ability to... survive!

Chapter Twenty-Six: It's so cold, I want to get married.

Time really flies.

With his eyes slightly closed, Kyosuke Kousaka was recalling some past events.

Things from my childhood are really blurry now. Apart from Kirino's part, everything else seems to have gradually disappeared into the past and can't be retrieved.

He wanted to carefully recall his childhood self.

The waterfall's water flows upstream.

The sun rises in the west and sets in the east.

The bullet returned to the chamber, and the athlete returned to the starting line.

Dandelion seeds drifted back from afar, gathering into the shape of an umbrella.

He looked at his sister.

My thoughts want to return to the time when we were both still young.

Kirino, let's go to school together.

Turn off the TV and put on your backpack.

You are still by my side. (Note)

The whole party was very noisy.

The cause was nothing more than that dark figure causing trouble—that's what Kirino thought.

Her brother promised to go with her to scout locations on Christmas Eve, and she was overjoyed. She was in an exceptionally good mood, and even though it was pitch black and she was causing trouble, Kirino was still smiling and talking to Umaru.

Until they started talking about some recent important events...

The black cat sipped its hot drink expressionlessly, staring at Kirino as it murmured in a flat tone, "Something important? Your brother said something like, 'If only the black cat were my sister.'"

"Cough cough cough cough cough..."

"Really? So you've already started to dislike me, your younger sister?"

Kirino's murderous gaze swept over him.

Like a wild beast, it chooses its prey to devour people.

Kyosuke Kosaka choked: "I did say that, but what I said back then was..."

At the time, I was just marveling at how all three of Gokou's children had such wonderful little sister qualities, but it seems that Kuroneko kept bringing that up.

"Oh oh oh!"

Saori leaned forward and interrupted his explanation with a loud voice: "Oh—what exactly is going on! Please let us know the details!"

"No, no, there are no details, it's just..."

The black cat calmly interjected, "Sorry, this is a secret between the two of us, right, brother?"

The older brother stopped talking.

I can tell, this cat is deliberately trying to cause trouble.

Didn't you see that Kirino's face turned pale?

Kousaka Kyosuke knew that saying anything now would probably be useless, so he nodded in agreement: "Kuro Neko is right. Umaru's little sister attributes are really over the top. I really envy Taihei, that dead sister-complex guy."

Umaru laughed awkwardly: "Oh, my brother isn't actually a siscon."

"Whether someone is a siscon or not can be determined by just one standard."

He gave a cold laugh: "Does Taiping have a girlfriend? No, right? Brothers without girlfriends are all siscon fanatics! I'm different..."

That self-righteous attitude is just adding fuel to the fire.

Saori raised her hand: "They all have the 'little sister' attribute, so what about me? I'd actually be quite suitable to be the little sister too, wouldn't I?"
