"Well! More problems have come knocking..."
"Excuse me... you're from the junior high school at Totsuki Academy, right?"
Since Fujiwara Moeha said that Hoshino Satoru's cooking was better than hers, it was only natural that Inui Hinako would think of Totsuki Culinary Academy, since in this country, Totsuki Culinary Academy is a gold standard in the culinary industry.
In other words, this country is divided into those who came from the distant moon and those who did not.
Since Fujiwara Moeha said her cooking isn't as good as Hoshino Satoru's, she's at least a Totsuki Academy student!
So don't be surprised if Hinako Inui said that.
Unfortunately, the reality is that Hoshino Gokawa is not actually like that.
Chapter 229 Hide and Seek
"No, I'm not a Totsuki student. I just learned a few tricks at home, nothing special."
Hoshino Gokawa, who was not familiar with the other party, really didn't want anything to go wrong that night, so he completely denied Inui Hinako's words.
"Really……"
Hinako Inui didn't immediately believe this explanation. Instead, she tilted her head slightly and looked at Hoshino Satoru's hand. It seemed that rather than believing his one-sided story, Hinako Inui wanted to judge whether the other party had real skills through some small details.
One way to tell is by looking at the hands. Anyone who frequently uses kitchen utensils will inevitably develop calluses on the inside of their thumbs. In addition to calluses, the size of the hands and whether there is a smell of cooking oil on the body are also indicators.
After a series of evaluations, Hinako Inui concluded that the other party had not put much effort into their cooking skills.
In other words, this might really be a misunderstanding. As for why this little girl said that...
That might be because the other person left such a deep impression on her that she developed a very high level of affection for them; simply put, her rational judgment was interfered with by her emotions.
"I'm so sorry, it seems I made a mistake. In that case, I won't bother you any longer. Please enjoy your meal."
After saying that, Inui Hinako left the private room again.
After a while, the Fujiwara family, having enjoyed their meal and drinks, left the upscale Japanese restaurant with Hoshino Gokawa.
Little did they know that after they left, a luxury car pulled up at the door, and an old man with gray hair, a fierce look in his eyes, and a muscular physique stepped out.
It was his arrival that made Hinako Inui realize that her judgment was wrong, and that even the boy she had just met at Totsuki Academy was a complete monster.
The reason was that Hoshino Gokawa made an extra sushi at noon that wasn't eaten, and after eating it, Inui Hinako thought that the world is full of wonders.
Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!
To be honest, Hinako Inui couldn't imagine how the other person could make such outrageous dishes at such a young age; the level of skill displayed was at least three stars.
at the same time------------------------------
Once home, the six members of the Fujiwara family went about their own business, some watching TV, others taking a bath.
It's summer, try not taking a shower for a day and see what happens! You'll feel awful!
As for the men, Fujiwara Daichi and Hoshino Gokawa, they were naturally the last two.
After everyone had finished showering, Hoshino Gokawa was reluctantly dragged into the game by the three of them again, but this time it wasn't a board game.
You have to count to thirty before you can open your eyes.
After Fujiwara Chika finished giving instructions to Hoshino Gokawa, the three of them hurriedly ran upstairs.
That's right! They're playing none other than the game played by people in most countries! Hide and seek!
Because the Fujiwara family owns a villa, there are plenty of places to hide. Moreover, they are still quite young, which means they can hide in places that are limited by their size.
However, there was one thing they didn't know: no matter how well they hid, they couldn't escape Hoshino Gokawa's perception.
You don't even need to look; just listen to them and you'll find their exact location.
But finding them directly would be a bit boring, so Hoshino Gokawa plans to add some elements to the hide-and-seek game, such as making the game scarier.
Meanwhile, in Fujiwara Chika's room on the second floor...
"Hmph! Hmph! You will never find me!"
In the past, in order to play hide-and-seek with Moeha, Fujiwara Chika really remodeled her wardrobe. The wardrobe had two layers, an inner layer that was only revealed by pushing the inner part of the wardrobe in front of her, which was like a small door that opened inwards.
All you have to do is crawl inside. It's big enough to accommodate someone under 1.7 meters tall, and most importantly, it can be locked, meaning you don't have to worry about people accidentally finding your hiding place.
Even more outrageous is that since this wasn't the first time they'd played hide-and-seek, they also put some snacks, comic books, and a small nightlight inside so it wouldn't be too dark to see.
However, precisely because it is so well sealed, those inside cannot see what is happening outside; they can only hear it.
"Hmm...it seems like it's here!"
Upon hearing footsteps outside, Fujiwara Chika immediately turned off the nightlight and covered the snacks again, then patiently waited to see which room the other person intended to enter.
The reason is that their hiding places are limited to the four rooms they live in, and if they hide in other places, it will be considered cheating and they will be the losers.
Thump... Thump...
Then, while Fujiwara Chika was thinking about something else, the other person pushed open the door to her room.
It seems that Hoshino Gokawa intends to make her a target for his search.
"Hmph, coming to me first was the most unwise decision you ever made!"
As the footsteps drew closer, Fujiwara Chika even began to imagine the other person searching the cabinet, then turning away with a blank expression.
Unfortunately, reality often turns out to be the opposite of what we imagine.
"Huh...huh..."
Listening to Fujiwara Chika's heartbeat, Hoshino Gokawa couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly, probably mocking her poor ability to play hide-and-seek.
However, simply capturing the other party wouldn't bring much enjoyment, so Hoshino Gokawa came up with some other strategies.
"Ok?"
Fujiwara Chika, not hearing the wardrobe being opened, couldn't help but feel strange. Normally, a person wouldn't immediately search the wardrobe!
Why didn't my extremely special cousin do the same?
"Ka... Ka..."
Suddenly, a very indescribable scraping sound came from outside the wardrobe. Although it wasn't loud, the sound really gave her goosebumps.
"Is there some kind of metal rubbing together?!"
Upon hearing this sound, Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but think of something "strange." Although she hadn't heard it before, she felt it sounded like a knife rubbing against something.
"Ugh! Is this guy trying to force me out by making noise?! Well, I'm not going to!"
Thinking she had seen through Hoshino Gokawa's true nature, Fujiwara Chika immediately revealed a very smug smile.
She simply had no idea what Hoshino Satoru was doing or what his plans were.
But that didn't stop the other party from giving Fujiwara Chika a "surprise" that was beyond words.
Chapter 230 The Game Ends
Click------------
"have they gone?"
Shortly after the noise subsided, the wardrobe door was opened again, suggesting that her cousin had genuinely left the room because he couldn't find her; after all, the sound of the door closing couldn't be faked.
"Should we go out and take a look?"
After thinking the other party had left, Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but have a thought that only a stupid character in a horror movie would have. After all, you know that most of the tropes in horror movies are to make you unlock your life-saving measures when you think you are safe, and then you will be killed by the guy lying in wait without knowing it.
Fortunately, Fujiwara Chika didn't do that in the end, although it was probably just a simple game of hide-and-seek on set.
But does she really think she won't be discovered if she doesn't go out? Probably not...
And as it turned out, Fujiwara Chika's determination was indeed correct, because Hoshino Satoru had not left the room, and the sound of the door closing was just an illusion.
Hoshino Gokawa thought that the other party would come out after he made his move, so he had been secretly waiting by the wardrobe. However, he did not expect that Fujiwara Chika would be so wary. Instead of coming out immediately after hearing the sound disappear, she planned to stay inside for a while longer as a precaution.
Of course, the main reason is that there is food, drink and a night light inside, so why would she risk being caught to come out?
This makes things complicated, because you can't see the other person through normal means, and as long as you don't see them while playing hide-and-seek, you're not considered caught.
So if Hoshino Gokawa wants to win, he has to use some unconventional methods, but the problem is that it's just a game, does he really need to be so competitive?
That's unnecessary...
So Hoshino Gokawa finally decided that he really didn't intend to care about Fujiwara Chika anymore, so he teleported outside in a flash and then pushed open the doors of other people's rooms to go in and search.
Of course, Hoshino Gokawa knew what to watch out for, so he didn't look anywhere other than where the heartbeat could be heard.
However, although Hoshino Gokawa said he didn't want to catch her, that didn't mean he would let Fujiwara Chika off the hook for cheating.
So he slightly increased the weight of the wardrobe; if it didn't have the strength to lift a cruise ship, the people inside wouldn't be able to push it out.
Alright, let's get down to business! Compared to Fujiwara Chika, who cheated, the other two, Hoshino Satoru, found it quickly. It's clear that they weren't interested in cheating when it came to playing games.
Since Hoshino Gokawa found Fujiwara Toyomi first, she will have to be the ghost later.
"Cousin Fengshi, have you seen Cousin Qianhua?"
"Wuchuan, you should just call me Sister Fengshi. Adding a 'cousin' title makes it too formal. The same goes for Qianhua. By the way, didn't you find Qianhua?"
As a relative, Fujiwara Toyomi felt that Hoshino Gokawa's way of addressing him was too formal, so he hoped that the other party could change it.
"Okay, Sister Fengshi."
Hoshino Gokawa had no objection to this and then added.
"I really couldn't find Sister Qianhua."
"Really... So are you still planning to keep looking?"
Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Toyomi immediately asked him a question.
"I can't find it anymore."
"In that case, I'll send her a text message."
Then Fujiwara Toyomi took out her phone and sent an email to Fujiwara Chika, unaware that her younger sister was almost crying with worry.
After listening for a while without hearing any sound from outside, Fujiwara Chika finally couldn't help but push open the inner door. When she tried to push open the outer wardrobe door, she found it incredibly difficult, and even with all her strength, she couldn't budge it an inch.
"Eh! Eh!!!"
After trying several times without success, Fujiwara Chika finally panicked and started banging on the door and shouting outside.
"Hey! Is anyone there?! I feel like I'm trapped in a closet and can't get out!"
Unfortunately, all the rooms in this villa had good partitions, so no matter how loudly Fujiwara Chika shouted, the people outside couldn't hear her, especially since she was in a well-sealed wardrobe.
"beep!"
And just then, her phone rang.
"Ok!"
Then Fujiwara Chika realized that she still had a cell phone, so she quickly turned it on and browsed it. After seeing the message her sister had sent her, she quickly replied, telling her that she was stuck in the closet and hoped they could come and help her.
To be honest, it was fortunate that Fujiwara Chika had prepared a small night light inside, otherwise she would definitely have felt suffocated by the oppressive atmosphere.
Even so, Fujiwara Chika was on the verge of a breakdown. Why couldn't she open the wardrobe for no reason? Could it be that her cousin had blocked it from the outside with something?!
Meanwhile, the three who received the text message from Fujiwara Chika rushed to her room immediately. It was at this moment that Hoshino Gokawa untied the wardrobe door without anyone knowing.
The result was that as soon as they came in, they saw Fujiwara Chika fall out of the room headfirst and land on the ground.
"Chika, are you alright...?"
Fujiwara Toyomi, who saw his second sister lying on the ground, rushed over to check on her and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was alright.
This also shows that although Fujiwara Toyomi was always carefree and absent-minded, his relationship with his younger sister was undoubtedly very deep.
"Hmm... why is there a light coming from Chika's wardrobe?"
At the same time, Fujiwara Moeha, who had taken a small step to stand beside the two of them, asked her older sisters as if she had noticed something quite unexpected.
"Oh yeah, and why is there another door inside this wardrobe?"
"Well……"
As Fujiwara Chika slowly recovered from her panic, she immediately remembered that she hadn't closed the inner part of the wardrobe.
"There are snacks inside, sister!"
