Almost the instant the steel door tightened, Ichiji Hoshika moved. With a sudden burst of speed, she pressed down on Nijika, who was facing her, grabbed Nijika's head, and pressed it directly against her recently enlarged chest, blocking her sister's eyes.

Then, Ichika Hoshika's other hand went straight to the keyboard, pressing Alt+F4 several times, and then pressed Enter after the shutdown prompt.

At this moment, looking at the rotating white circle on the screen, Ijichi Seika could feel her own heartbeat again, as well as the gentle pushing of Ijichi Nijika's abdomen and the intermittent sounds.

"...I'm...not a child anymore, sister...don't always treat me like one..."

You'll always be a child in front of your older sister—but we'll talk about that later.

Fortunately, judging from Hongxia's tone, she didn't see anything, right?

At this moment, Ichika Hoshika really wanted to gasp for breath. Her vision was blurring and her body was weak. If it weren't for Hongxia supporting her, she wouldn't even be able to stand up.

Just now, facing the crisis of social death, Ichi Nijika really unleashed her body's greatest potential, with adrenaline flowing like it was free.

She really wanted to rest. Wait, what was she doing just now?

Oh right, Mingze Feng invited her to Izu. She contacted the store's acting manager and also cleaned up and encrypted things on her computer that weren't suitable for others to see.

Careless.

Ijichi Hoshika never expected that she would encounter such a thing when she went out to make a phone call while she was halfway through organizing her documents.

Nijika Ichiji actually came to the starry sky while she was away, and even opened something she least wanted to show anyone, something she planned to encrypt and hide away.

Ichika wanted to shout, but she was afraid that Nijika would notice something was wrong, so she could only suppress her breathing and try her best to calm her heartbeat.

But...

Just now on the screen, the way she looked... ahhhhhh!

damn it,

Damn it.

Damn it!

Where Ijichi Nijika couldn't see, Ijichi Seika raised her head, her face contorted in pain.

Was the photo taken back then really this clear?!

Ichiko Hoshika hadn't seen the video from Narusawa Kaede's first-person perspective yet. If Nijika hadn't clicked on it, she probably would have remained too embarrassed to watch it.

Ijichi Hoshika could even see the bulging veins on her skin, and the provocative glances she and Shimizu Eliza exchanged.

At this moment, looking at the closed interface and the black screen of the computer, Ichiji Hoshika felt a headache coming on.

She looked down at Ichiki Nijika's head.

If Hongxia finds out, then her authority as the older sister will be completely gone.

The biggest problem now is not how to explain to Hongxia why she was in the same bed with his classmate; it's how to explain that she and many other people played the "driving a big car" game with her classmate.

damn it.

It's completely inexplicable!

[That damned Naruzawa Kaede! I told you not to have too many people! If Nijika finds out, I'll splatter you first and then kill myself!]

No, to prevent being discovered next time, let's just kill them all.

Having nearly fallen halfway off the cliff, at this moment, the killing intent in Ichiji Hoshika's heart towards Narusawa Kaede surged to an unprecedented level.

"elder sister..."

The sound of Ichiji Nijika sulking reached my ears.

Ijichi Seika raised her hand to press her face, controlling her expression and calming herself down. She took a half step back and met Ijichi Nijika's gaze.

Two pairs of crimson, jade-like eyes met, and Ichiji Nijika asked, "What just happened, sister?"

She forced a smile in front of Ichiji Seika, "There's nothing there."

Oh no, she saw it.

She definitely saw it.

A wave of despair washed over Ichiji Hoshika, but it was too late; she couldn't possibly kill Narusawa Kaede now. She could only blame herself for making the call before finishing processing the video.

Ichi Nijika also narrowed her eyes.

He was caught pretending to be stupid.

My sister definitely found out.

Ijichi Hoshika noticed that Ijichi Nijika had seen it, and Ijichi Nijika also noticed that Ijichi Hoshika could see through her act.

Since Nijika chose to pretend she hadn't seen it, Ijichi Hoshika continued. What had happened before then became an unspoken secret between the two sisters.

Nijika Ichichi spoke up first: "Sister, H... has these kinds of videos stored on the computer in the store."

Ichika rubbed her face. "Ah, haha, Nijika will understand when she grows up. Watching short videos is normal. Everyone has needs."

"Of course..."

Ichika Hoshika's expression turned serious, adopting the air of an older sister, "It's normal to watch it occasionally, just don't get too obsessed, understand?"

Ichi Nijika pouted and looked to the side. She hooked the end of her blonde side ponytail with her fingers, clenching her fingertips tightly to suppress the trembling in her heart.

Suppressing the stinging sensation in her nose, Ichiji Nijika raised her voice, feigning relaxation, and said, "It's time for my sister to find a boyfriend... This is really going too far..."

"Even when hanging out with friends, you have to be careful."

Ichika patted her chest. "Of course I know that."

"By the way, the person in the video?"

Ijichi Hoshika continued, patting her chest, "They're all people Nijika doesn't know, they're my sister's friends from before."

Ijichi Hongxia nodded.

She then asked, "Should I take it home to show my sister?"

"Why bring something back when it's only half-finished?"

As Ichika spoke, her gaze swept over Nijika's calm eyes.

I didn't see any flaws.

If it's discovered that it's that person, Hongxia's reaction will definitely be huge.

After a moment's thought, Ichiji Hoshika understood the reason.

The first-person video did not capture Mingze Feng's face.

It was fortunate amidst misfortune.

However... she was mistaken for a bad woman who went out to have fun.

Between two evils, choose the lesser; now is not the time to argue about whether love is pure or not.

In reality, although Ijichi Hoshika has attacked younger men, she has experienced both open-air and outdoor battles, and at most, she was dragged along by Kaede to engage in four-on-one combat, with battle marks ranging from the Starry Night Stage to the bathroom flowerbed.

But she is a very traditional and good woman.

Ichika Hoshika's face flushed, a mix of emotions welling up inside her. But what was done was done; she could only swallow hard and whisper to Nijika,

"This...don't follow my sister's example, she's not good at that..."

That's a very weak statement to make.

She couldn't find any dignity as an older sister.

"Of course I won't learn it, I'm a pure love party member."

Yi Di knew Hong Xia and answered immediately.

As for Feng in her name, my sister said that she doesn't know him.

So, it can't be.

"I'm going back now..."

Ichi Nijika tightly wrapped her hair around her fingertips.

She knows Feng; her sister said the person in the video is someone she doesn't know.

Therefore, the main character in the video is not Feng.

Yes, it's that simple.

Hahaha...

what.

How could it not be?

Buried on the bed in his own room.

Hongxia's eyes remained unblinking, calm as a well.

She seemed to see something in front of her.

Ichi Nijika witnessed another night of torrential rain.

The crying boy fell into the puddle on the road, sobbing silently. The heavy rain washed away the boy's tears until an umbrella shielded him from the dark clouds.

When he looked up, he saw a smug, arrogant face with a look that said someone owed her money, and a pair of warm, crimson eyes.

"Kid, where are your parents?"

"...One left, and the other ran away? What about their guardians? They're both gone?"

"...Can you stand up? Never mind, I shouldn't have asked you."

The woman held an umbrella in one hand and pulled the boy up with the other. Ignoring the rain and mud, she carried him on her back.

The umbrella was held high.

It blocked the raging wind and rain.

"My name is Ijichi Hoshika, just call me Hoshika. Come to my place to get out of the rain and take a shower... Hungry? I'm not bragging, but my sister is an amazing cook."

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

“Narusawa... Kaede? Ha, how about calling her Ijichi Kaede?”

From then on, Ichiki Nijika had a younger brother.

"That's...great..."

Ichi Nijika saw it all. She saw Ichi Hoshika take in a younger brother, saw her change his clothes and cook for him, and dreamed that she took him to work and earn money to redeem the lost guitar.

She saw that pure, joyful smile on Mingze Feng's face. She was picked up by that person, and she rubbed her cheek against his face.

"Ugh?"

How can a person see herself?

No, don't think about these things...

She still has so much to do, so much to say, and so much more...

I really want to say sorry.

If you don't think about it, you can continue dreaming.

Ah, right.

All of this was a dream.

Ichi Nijika opened her eyes.

It was exactly the same as before she fell asleep; it was still her room, still her bed.

My pillowcase was wet; I didn't know if it was from tears or saliva.

"Really...it really is..."

drip-drip-

"I'm so stupid..."

drip-drip-

Ichi Nijika turns on her phone.

It was a text message from her sister. Ichiji Nijika glanced at the time; she had returned home around 5 PM, and it was now 8 PM.
