In crossover anime, who isn't a childhood friend?

Gen Chiya and Kasumigaoka are alone for the time being.

Taking this opportunity, Kasumigaoka handed him the things she had just bought.

"Qianye, please take this back. It's a small token of my appreciation for Auntie. I hope she and her baby will both be healthy."

Yuan Qianye took it and glanced into the paper bag.

The moment I glanced at the brand names marked on the packaging boxes of several products.

He then realized that these things were quite expensive.

It wasn't the "small" sentiment that Kasumigaoka had described.

However, he still accepted it with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness."

"Let's not say thank you like that between us."

Kasumigaoka took out a cake from the store and, along with the accompanying small spoon, pushed it in front of Minamoto Chiya.

Just as she looked up, intending to let him taste the cake, she clearly saw Yuan Qianye raise his eyes and look away.

Ok?

Shi Yu looked thoughtfully at the place he had just been focusing on.

Those were my feet, which were exposed on one side of my buttocks as I knelt down.

The cuffs of the suit trousers tightened with the movement, revealing half of the lower leg.

Legs encased in black stockings.

She didn't have any particular idea about what to wear when she went out today; she just followed her usual routine.

But now it seems that the unintentional revelation of the "underwear" situation has had a very good effect on someone.

"~"

Shi Yu couldn't help but narrow her eyes, and the next moment she revealed a mischievous smile that was deliberately meant to tease.

"Not bad, I guess."

She was a little nervous, but she still said it, trying her best to maintain the composure and confidence of an older female student.

"Yes, it's really good. The cream has a great texture and the sweetness is just right. I don't like sweets, but I don't find it cloying at all. I feel like I could finish the whole serving."

"I'll give this review after taking a bite of the cake," said Yuan Qianye.

That's not what I meant.

Kasumigaoka is the kind of person who, once she has an idea, will try her best to pursue it, even if it's difficult.

She's like that when she's writing novels, and now, when she's experimenting with certain emotional matters... she's doing the same thing.

She had finally caught him secretly observing her, and since they were alone together, she didn't want to let this opportunity slip by. She really wanted to hear his specific thoughts about her.

"That's not what you meant?"

"I'm referring to my clothing style today."

"Oh, that's true. You look great in your suit today, and you've matured a lot. You look like a successful female boss."

Yuan Qianye gave his own objective evaluation.

It's a nice thing to say.

But it wasn't the kind of nice thing Kasumigaoka wanted to hear.

So she continued to guide her, taking into account that Saeko, who was going back to her room to change clothes, might come back at any time, and at the same time, she quietly sped up her own progress.

“My mom likes to look at fashion magazines, and I sometimes glance at them when I’m at home. Today I was going out to talk to the editor about work, so I dressed up like this according to the magazine’s recommendations.”

As she spoke, she slowly stood up, tilting her legs, which had been resting under her little bottom, toward Yuan Qianye.

The trousers of the suit were pulled up further, revealing more of the beautiful curves of the calves covered by black stockings.

Through the thin material of the stockings, Yuan Qianye could even see the original pink and healthy color of her nails beneath the black fabric.

"I see."

He seemed to understand something and looked away again.

As if to cover something up, she scooped up a large spoonful of cake and put it in her mouth.

Shiyu deliberately asked, "Isn't that strange?"

"Of course not, on the contrary, they are a perfect match."

"That's good." Shi Yu patted her chest gently and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, as if the tea room was a bit too hot, he took off his coat.

As he took it off, the fitted, waist-cinching shirt was revealed in front of Yuan Qianye's eyes, and the buttons were taut, clearly indicating that it was under considerable pressure.

"Because I don't have the habit of wearing invisible ankle socks, I just switched to my usual outfit. As long as it doesn't look strange."

She mustered all her courage in one breath and met Genji's gaze.

His right hand seemingly casually reached down and rested on his calf.

The already high-heeled trousers were pulled up even higher.

More beautiful curves to admire were revealed.

Yuan Qianye stared at Shi Yu, who was right beside him, taking in her series of incredibly smooth little moves.

It's truly astonishing how some girls are born with an innate charm that effortlessly attracts men's attention.

"It's not just not surprising, it even adds to the beauty. After all, your legs are already very beautiful. This feeling of hiding them and then suddenly revealing them is really wonderful."

Suddenly, Yuan Qianye stopped hiding his true feelings and stared directly at Shi Yu's legs, praising them with a tsk-tsk.

There were even those who reached out their hands but then froze in mid-air, realizing something was wrong and regretfully stopping.

That's all there is to it.

There was no real physical contact.

Even so, it was enough to make Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was pretending to be a mature woman, tremble and her ears turn red instantly!

The legs that had just been stretched out with all their might now timidly retracted.

Gen Chiyo's unexpectedly aggressive gaze and demeanor left the outwardly strong but inwardly weak Kasumigaoka Utaha completely unable to resist.

Like a dolphin suddenly deflated, it instantly reveals its awkward and weak state, unable to muster even the slightest thought of resistance.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

At this moment, Saeko Busujima, now dressed in dry clothes, reappeared in the tea room.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, her thighs pressed tightly together, breathed a sigh of relief. She made an excuse to go to the restroom, and after Saeko explained the location of the restroom, she quickly left with messy little steps.

In layman's terms, she's a paper tiger; in the game, she's a glass cannon—a classic example of high attack but weak defense.

I apologize to Eriri.

If we use the English pear as the standard unit of measurement.

Kasumigaoka Utaha is just so-so, probably around the level of 1.5 Eriri.

It certainly looks a bit stronger, but the strength is only slightly greater.

However, in the tacit probing between the two just now, it ended with Gen Chiya emerging victorious.

But in fact, he was affected to some extent as well.

If Shiyu were to press her ear against his chest right now, she would be able to hear the erratic heartbeat that was pounding so fiercely because of her.

Around 3 p.m.

The three of them left Busujima's house together.

Recently, due to the availability of vaccines, many people have already been vaccinated.

Although the school has not yet resumed normal campus life, it will open the school gates after noon.

This allows students who have excess energy from studying at home to come to the school to use the facilities for club activities.

For example, soccer, baseball, kendo, etc.

Saeko Busujima is going to the school's kendo club now, as she has the responsibility to lead the club's activities as the club president.

It just so happens that she also needs to start considering the specific candidates to participate in the Jade Dragon Flag competition with her and Qianye, and it would be beneficial to make a decision on this matter as soon as possible.

Although she knew the specific skill levels of the members in the club, she knew that the pressure might be too great after participating in the Jade Dragon Flag competition, and the probability of achieving good results was very small.

But if you train your physical fitness well, even if it's not easy to win when you go on stage, you can still help wear down your opponent's stamina, which is considered to have done your part.

Having failed to seduce someone and ended up being seduced instead, Shi Yu now plans to go straight home.

Although she wanted to ask Yuan Qianye to go out for a walk and have dinner together in the evening.

Unfortunately, Chiyo had other plans, saying she was going to learn piano, so she had to give up.

Saeko Busujima, carrying her wooden sword, waved goodbye to Utaha and Chiya at the crossroads on her way to school.

Although the two are going to different destinations, they will take the same tram.

The tram was quite crowded on the weekend, and there were no empty seats when I entered the carriage.

Fortunately, it wasn't crowded. After swaying and bumping for four stops, the two got off the train together.

"You didn't wipe your hands this time," Kasumigaoka said as they parted.

"What?" Yuan Qianye didn't understand her meaning for a moment.

"It was that time we went to see the fireworks together. After you got off the train, you even took out a tissue to wipe your hands," Kasumigaoka recalled from a long time ago.

After pondering for a long time, Yuan Qianye realized that there seemed to be such a thing.

He chuckled, "It's amazing that you can remember things from so long ago."

Shiyu put her hands behind her back and puffed out her chest: "As long as it's about you, no matter how long ago it was, I'll probably remember it."

"That's an exaggeration."

"Don't believe me? You can try asking."

The girl's clear but emotional voice rang out right in front of him.
