The cycle begins to repeat itself today.

Chapter 198 The Troublesome Sister

The action didn't last long; perhaps it was just shorter than I expected that gave me that impression. I don't know if my idea and action of taking the photo touched Yezi's heart, or if it was just a disguise to cover up her true purpose and goal. I don't really understand what girls are thinking, but I hope I can.

Yezi didn't linger, and the simple kiss ended quickly. She pulled away from me, and I sat up. It was almost time to go back, so I said goodbye to Yezi and headed towards the entrance. Just as I was about to leave, I saw Yezi's hesitant expression. After thinking for a moment, I told her "See you tomorrow," and her slightly downcast expression brightened.

Even I could understand Yezi's simple thoughts, and because of this simple matter, I felt my mood improved as well.

I walked downstairs, making little noise, and the lights only turned on when I reached my floor. It was eerily quiet all around; in the narrow stairwell, I could only hear my own footsteps. There wasn't even the chirping of insects or birds; the silence was almost unsettling.

I went downstairs, and the view opened up. Although it was pitch black outside, I was unusually able to calm down in this quiet and empty darkness. I'm probably different from most people; the darkness that brings fear and the unknown to them brings me a sense of security. I don't actively try to exclude a period of time or a certain environment; I can only passively accept it.

In such circumstances, the daytime, which exposes me to others, is not as satisfying as the nighttime, which hides me.

I walked towards the hospital, following the same route I'd taken before, on different days, at the same time. The walk was no different from the day I rescued Ye Zi, except I could no longer hear footsteps, nor see that drunkard whose purpose I couldn't discern. I quickly reached the area in front of the residential complex, which was, as always, deserted.

I had only taken two steps inside when my phone started vibrating. I took it out and glanced at it; it was a call from someone named "Sister." I don't have many phone numbers saved, and I only have one sister, so this call could only have come from her.

I answered the phone, and my sister's voice came through quickly: "Where are you?" Her voice was very soft, as if she was deliberately lowering her volume. I walked over and talked to her: "I'm at the door, I'll be there soon."

"Hey, hey, wait a minute. You're at the door, right? See if that little shop by the door is still open?"

When I arrived, the streets were pitch black. Although the town's rest time was quite healthy, it was perhaps a bit too early for those hoping for some nightlife. I looked back at the location of the small shop my sister had mentioned, but it was already closed.

"It's already closed."

"Ah..." she drawled out her disappointment, "Then forget it, just come back."

I gave a quick answer and hung up. A few minutes later, I arrived at my front door. I found the door was already open, so I didn't need a key and just opened it to go inside. The living room was dark; my parents seemed to have gone to their bedrooms to rest, as did my sister's. However, my room was lit, so my sister was probably in my room right now.

I closed the door and was taking off my shoes when I saw my sister's head pop out of my bedroom door and look at me: "You're back? You're really late today. Just like yesterday?"

Yesterday? Oh, right, I just rescued Ye Zi yesterday and stayed at her house until 11:30 before coming back. The same thing happened today. I nodded, and my sister's face showed interest.

"What were you doing back so late?"

"What do you think?" I gave a vague answer, but my sister showed great interest after hearing what I said. I walked past her and into the room, where my sister immediately grabbed my sleeve: "Mom and Dad were just about to call you. If I hadn't covered for you and said you were buying something for me, you might have gotten scolded."

My sister was lying, and I knew it instantly. My parents basically ignore me now; they barely say a word when they give me money. They just leave it on the table between the living room and dining room, and I can just take it. They won't bother me, and I won't get scolded. Based on this, I'm certain my sister is lying. She's just trying to emphasize this point, to give herself a false title, in order to get me to agree to her request.

She seemed particularly interested in things that were inappropriate for her age, and I could already guess what she was going to ask later. I didn't really want to tell her, but she would probably keep nagging about it, so I simply summarized what happened, cutting out the parts I really couldn't tell her, and summed it all up in one sentence: "I was just on a date with a girl."

"Wow!" she exclaimed, blinking her eyes. She had only been tugging at my sleeve, but now she was pressing closer. "You must have been doing something else since you came back so late. Tell me about it!"

Although we are siblings, there are differences between boys and girls, and I hope she will pay more attention to her words and actions. Furthermore, I can't say anything more about the questions she asked. Early romantic relationships are already a major taboo, and the other things are even more inappropriate and should not be shared with my sister under any circumstances.

I shook my head, but she wasn't satisfied and clung to me: "I helped you keep it a secret, and you didn't even tell me what happened. I don't like you anymore."

If she let go, it might be a little more convincing.

It seemed I needed to spend some time crafting a story I could tell her. I used the same excuse as before, grabbed my clothes, and went to the bathroom. While showering, I pondered how to tell my sister about it.

Chapter 199 Familiar Fragrance

I spent some time explaining the basics to my sister, because I deliberately concealed some things that happened between me and Yezi. As a result, she didn't seem very satisfied with it, but I couldn't continue to tell her the rest. She shook my arm, but she still couldn't get the answer she wanted from me.

"Are you hiding something from me?" She stared at me with her eyes wide open. "You've already gone to the girl's house, and there's no one home. Are you really just going to do nothing?"

"I hope you have at least some faith in my character."

"Is this a matter of character? Normally, it's definitely not like what you're saying, right?" My sister pouted and looked at me. Although it was an expression she was making on purpose, it was also particularly cute to me: "If it were like this, no normal person would be indifferent, right?"

As she said this, she reached out and put her hand on my shoulder. I was sitting in the chair at my desk, while my sister was lying on my bed as usual, but her action of propping herself up and putting her hand on me brought us much closer.

She didn't seem to have considered whether what she was doing was appropriate or not. I wanted to create some distance, but I could feel from the weight on my shoulders that she had shifted her weight to me to maintain her balance. If I leaned back, she might fall.

I had to sit properly to prevent her from falling, and I used my hand to cushion her arm to prevent any accidents and also to maintain a safe distance between us.

"Stop fooling around, you'll lose your balance and fall."

"Who told you to be so useless?" She showed no sign of letting go, her tone filled with a sense of disappointment and frustration. Although it wasn't the best way to put it, I always felt that my sister was bolder and more serious about this matter than I had imagined.

"Okay. I'll try harder next time. Honestly, you're a girl, can't you be a little more reserved?"

"Hmph." She snorted lightly, "It's all because of you. If it were someone else, I might not even bother with him."

I couldn't help but sigh, but to be honest, I was quite happy when I heard what my sister said. There's nothing more heartwarming than having someone care about you.

"Thank you so much." I gently lifted her arm to help her return to her original position. "Alright, it's past midnight, go to sleep. Don't you have class tomorrow?"

"It doesn't matter, it's only midnight, I won't fall asleep."

"But I will go back to sleep. You should also go to sleep early; staying up late is bad for your health."

"Here we go again, changing the subject." She pouted, glanced at her phone, and then moved to the other side of the bed. "My phone's almost dead. I'll go back to sleep after I'm done playing. You can turn off the light."

"how about you?"

"I'll play here until I'm done before I go back."

Then she quickly turned around, using half of the only pillow on the bed as her head, and started playing on her phone. Could I possibly lie down like that? I sat on the edge of the bed, leaning against the headboard, looking out the window. At this hour, the only lights still on around here were probably the streetlights and my room.

I don't know when it started, but the sky is no longer filled with the stars it used to have. Even now, it's late at night.

I was staring blankly out the window when my sister suddenly rolled over—in the physical sense of rolling—and came to my side. Before I even noticed her movement, she had already placed her head on my lap. When I looked at her, there was a cell phone between our eyes.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to let you know that my phone is dead."

"Then you don't need to come over, right?"

"You actually look down on your own sister? Are you even human?"

I shrugged. "I didn't say that."

"Never mind, I'm going back to sleep. You should go to sleep early too."

She sat up quickly, got out of bed, walked to the door, and said, "Let me turn off the light for you." As she left, she turned off the light and closed the door. I lay down on the bed as she closed the door.

I'm not sure how long she stayed in my bed, or if she simply used a strongly scented shampoo or something similar. There was a slightly familiar, but indescribable, fragrance that lingered around me as I lay in bed, refusing to leave.

I closed my eyes, yet it seemed I could see my sister's image in the darkness and tranquility. Although it wasn't an excessive imagination, it was only compared to something like Ye Zisanyue's. I opened my eyes, slapped myself hard across the face, and cleared away all the thoughts I had just had.

However, as I thought about this problem, another question surfaced at the same time. Today, something that had been bothering me finally dawned on me… the lingering effect—the delayed sensation when touching a girl's body—had disappeared. When did it disappear?

It seems that it hasn't happened since noon today, because something happened this morning that would have definitely caused that phenomenon, and the delay was indeed there. Until noon, on the roof of the teaching building, when I placed Yezi and March noodles and began to consciously invade their bodies, that feeling started to subside.

But after that, when the same delayed feeling should have occurred again, I never felt it. And what my sister did to me just now, although I didn't intend to think about it in any particular way, I also didn't feel any delayed feeling. This situation wasn't just happening with those three girls; this had been verified before—when my sister's actions became more intimate.

It just disappeared so suddenly? I'll tentatively categorize this as a sequela.

Similar things seem to have happened before, such as headaches, being conscious but unable to control one's body, or being unable to open one's eyes. These things happened once, but they haven't happened again since.

In that case, could we consider this "delayed feeling" as a lingering effect that has already disappeared...? Perhaps. I'll confirm this with March tomorrow morning.

In this refreshing fragrance, I closed my eyes once again.

Chapter 200 A Sudden Surprise

This time, I didn't feel anything strange. I didn't have that feeling of being fully conscious yet unable to control my body, nor did I have any strange dreams. I quietly immersed myself in the darkness until I regained consciousness and opened my eyes. Before me was still my slightly dim room, and nothing else.

I picked up my phone from the bedside table and checked the time. I woke up a little earlier than usual, but it wasn't anything particularly important. I felt pretty good, so I didn't go back to sleep.

I got out of bed, quietly changed my clothes, and then finished washing up in the dark. Neither my sister nor my parents showed any sign of waking up. I grabbed my schoolbag and left home. I walked towards the bridge, and sure enough, I saw March standing there waiting for me again. As I approached, a smile appeared on March's face.

I walked over to her, and as soon as I got to her side, March eagerly came over and took my arm. She was still wearing the same dress she wore yesterday, but her movements were even bolder than before.

She practically dragged me into that abandoned park, making no attempt to hide anything, going straight to the point. Her hand, which had been on my arm, had climbed up to my neck, and we embraced and kissed. I didn't particularly resist; on the contrary, I was quite proactive, and March responded very passionately. I guess as long as we did something similar to yesterday, that should be fine.

That's what I was thinking. I put my hand on March's waist, ready to make a move, when I heard some voices that clearly didn't come from either of us. I wanted to look, but March didn't let go of me. At very close range, I saw a slightly mischievous look in March's eyes. At the same time, I felt another pair of hands on my back.

Those hands didn't stop; they slid from behind, down the sides, to the front, and I felt her arms around me. A soft touch came from behind me. I realized who was behind me.

March didn't pay attention to her, and this soft touch was unique to girls. I couldn't think of anyone else besides Lin Yin who could have such a feeling.

Of course, Ye Zi is not impossible, but at this time and place, the possibility of Lin Yin is definitely higher.

I'm currently being embraced by the sisters, March and Lin Yin, one in front and one behind. As I kiss March, I feel Lin Yin's hands sliding down my body. We've spent some time that seems absurd by any standards. I sit nonchalantly on the dusty stone bench, March and Lin Yin sitting on my laps. I'm finished here, but March doesn't seem to have had enough, still being affectionate with Lin Yin right in front of me. They're both wearing matching dresses.

My hands weren't idle either, but my attention wasn't entirely focused on the two girls. I still felt like I was being watched by something, and I subtly observed my surroundings, but the area was completely obscured by the greenery of the small park, and all I could see was the scene inside the abandoned apartment building.

After confirming that I hadn't found anything, I looked away and turned my attention back to March and Lin Yin.

"Why did you come with Xiaoyin today?" I felt it wasn't appropriate to call Lin Yin by her name directly, so I took the liberty of calling her Xiaoyin like March did. March didn't mind, but instead looked away from Lin Yin, whose eyes were already glazed over, and licked her lips: "Of course, it's to let you experience the charm of twin sisters, so you won't just go looking for Yezi all day."

"I must say, you've succeeded." I said in a flippant tone, my hands roaming restlessly over the two girls' bodies.

In March, she looked at Lin Yin again, reached out and patted her shoulder. Lin Yin snapped out of her daze, glanced at March, then stood up and knelt down in front of me. The clothes I had just straightened were undone by Lin Yin again. March had no intention of letting me go and kissed me once more.

My attention was forced to be entirely focused on the two girls, but for some reason, the feeling of being observed became increasingly clear, which made my actions more unrestrained, fondling March and Lin Yin's bodies. Half of it was for the purpose of disguise, and the other half was to satisfy my own desires.

I wrapped my arms around March's waist, holding her even tighter, as if trying to merge her with me. March became even more passionate; she sat on my lap, slightly taller than me, pressing down on my upper body, forcing me to look up at her.

Perhaps it was just a coincidence, or perhaps it was destiny, but I saw something.

It's right above me and Lin Yin in March, something I've often overlooked. It's on a utility pole that hasn't been removed yet, and at this time, I can only see the signal light attached to it flashing, not very fast, but that proves it's actually working.

It was a surveillance camera, and it was working. I don't know if the three of us were within its surveillance range, but I definitely noticed it because of it.

Then, my attention was quickly drawn to the Lin sisters in March. It felt like a long time had passed before I finally breathed a sigh of relief and had the two disheveled sisters help me tidy my clothes. Whether it was desire or vanity, I had been greatly satisfied. I wasn't sure if, after everything was over, I would still have the resolve to break free from this abnormal situation.

"Were you and Yezi having such a good time yesterday?" March asked me. I didn't answer her directly: "I just took her home and rested at her place for a while."

"I thought you'd already turned her from a girl into a woman," March said, then leaned close to my ear seductively, "Hey, want to come over to my place Saturday night?"

I was slightly surprised: "Your home? Where are your parents?"

“They happen to be busy this week and won’t be home for the weekend. Don’t you think this is a great opportunity?”

I'm a bit stuck.
