After I yelled angrily, a familiar figure appeared behind the boy I caught.

"...Senior, what are you doing?" Echizen Ryoma hugged Karubin and looked at me blankly.

I was stunned for a moment, and looked up at the person I was holding. The bewilderment on the other person's face had been put away, and he smiled at me: "Hello, first time meeting."

"...I'm sorry!" I immediately let go, stepped back, and bowed, and the steps of apologizing were completed in one go.

"Uh... I'm really sorry." I picked up the circulation board on the ground and handed it over with both hands, "I'm Hinata Iori who lives next door, and I'm here to deliver the circulation board... I just mistook you for Ryoma, really terribly sorry."

"I'm Echizen Ryuya." The other party took the circulation board, turned and left, waved his hand lightly, and said with a smile, "Next time, don't misidentify the person, young lady."

Alas--!I looked at Echizen Ryoma walking towards me, and covered my face with my hands in shame: "Hold, sorry, I didn't know you had an older brother..."

"Senior sister, your eyesight is too bad!" The cat-eyed boy condemned.

"I thought that was you ten years later... Ah, forget it, the story is too long to tell! Let's get rid of this embarrassment!" I put my hands down and raised my head, "What's wrong with Karubin, Doesn't seem to be in good spirits."

"I don't know, it has been eating normally recently..." Echizen Ryoma frowned, and patted Karubin's head.I hugged the cat from him, and I was a little worried: "Do you want to go to the hospital? I know a nearby pet hospital with a good reputation. Do you want to go with you? But I have something to do this weekend and I don't think I'll be free."

"Well, thanks." Ryoma nodded absent-mindedly, looking uninspired, "You tell me the address, and I'll go by myself."

"Okay, tell me if you have any questions." I emailed him the address and left the Echizen house.

"Mom, are the Echizen family actually two brothers? You and Aunt Rinko are so familiar that you didn't mention this!" I complained as soon as I entered the house, and felt extremely ashamed of my brain-twitch behavior just now.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Mom came out with a sliced ​​cantaloupe, frowning, "The Echizen family is an only child."

I was taken aback: "Huh? But I just saw Longma's brother at their house..."

"It's called Ryuya, right? That's the adopted son of the Echizen family, and for some reason, the relationship with the guardian was terminated later..." Mom sighed, "But in fact, Rinko and Nanjiro care about this adopted son."

"Ah...every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite." I nodded knowingly.

That being said... is Ryoma looking down today because of Karubin, or because of his brother?

"Iori, did you have dinner with Xiangyang?"

"No, I ate with Yukimura..." I was still thinking about something, and I blurted out the answer. After I finished speaking, I realized something was wrong, and I turned my head to meet my mother's bright eyes.

"Hey—do you want to eat together—is it just two of you?"

"...Mom, such a tone and expression are not suitable for you." I picked up the honeydew melon that had been split in half, dug and ate it with a small spoon, and broke her fantasy with a blank face, "Didn't you say that before?" What's the matter, I haven't been at the same table for three years, so I guess people don't like me."

"But maybe it's because you were too close before, and you got used to it so you didn't realize it?" Mom enthusiastically speculated, "Maybe now that you are far away, you start to look at the past and remember your good times, but You are now in a different place..."

At this point, my mother's face changed, and she began to add inexplicable settings and plots without authorization: "At this time, there may be a new girl next to Yukimura. To some extent, she should be somewhat similar to you. Will become your rival in love... At this time, there will also be a new handsome guy beside you..."

"Wait a minute! Mother! If you continue, you will enter the second season of an unknown school idol drama!" I stopped my mother from continuing to make up, feeling a little headache.

But when my mother mentioned it like this... I thought of Yukimura's reaction during the day again.

Maybe I'm thinking too much... right?

"Iori? Are you listening to me?"

"Ah?" I came back to my senses, tilted my head and thought for a while, "Mom, do you think... is it possible that Yukimura is interested in me?"

My mother's expression was serious, she patted my shoulder with her hand, and said earnestly: "Hey, I was just talking casually just now, let's keep our feet on the ground and don't think so much."

"...It's not the topic you mentioned!?" I was angry.

With the question of whether I was born or not, I went to bed.

Early the next morning, I went to the airport to pick up the plane with my parents.

Holding a big [Anxi] sign, I stood in the lobby, watching the crowds coming and going, and paying attention to the movement of the flight.

Only when I saw the chubby figure at the entrance of the plane did I put down the sign in my hand and stuff it into the hand of my father beside me, and ran over happily: "Grandpa!"

Grandpa stopped in his tracks, the light from his glasses flashed, he let me rush over with a smile, and didn't mind if I pinched his soft stomach secretly, and reached out to rub my head: "Long time no see, Yizhi. "

"Yeah! It's been a long time!" It wasn't me who answered, but a red-haired man carrying luggage behind him, "Iori has grown so big!"

"Idiot, you are blocking the way." Behind the red-haired man, the black-haired young man wearing a hat and sunglasses said coldly.

"What did you say?! Bastard flow..."

"Hush—" Seeing that the other party was about to yell out his name, I hurriedly stopped him, "Uncle Huadao, you can't call out your name! At least you have a little self-consciousness as celebrities!"

"Ah, yes." Yingmu Huadao scratched his head, smiling happily, "I am also a celebrity..."

Uncle Rukawa has already pulled the luggage and walked to my mother, squinted, snorted softly, and glanced at him with contempt.

"The relationship between Xiaofeng and Huadao is still so good..." Mom sighed with a smile, "Xiaofeng can stay at our house, the room has been tidied up. Dad, you come here so rarely, stay at home for a while! Huadao, are you You're going back to Kanagawa to see Haruko, right?"

After finishing speaking, mother winked at Yingmu Huadao full of ridicule.

however……

"Ah...this..." Sakuragi Hanadao stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, smiling a little awkwardly, "That...Maki-senpai, can I borrow your house for a while?"

"...Huh?" Mom was stunned.

I nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes! Uncle Huadao, come here!"

"You child, don't make any trouble!" The father who had been walking quietly beside grandpa looked over, with a hesitant expression on his face, "Hanado, you are...Has something happened to Haruko?"

"Ah...that's a long story..."

Seeing that the other party hesitated to speak, our family looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally the head of the family spoke.

"No matter what... let's talk at home first!" Dad said.

After arriving home, my mother took Uncle Rukawa to his room, and Uncle Sakuragi sat down and accepted the attention of me, father, and grandfather.

Seeing that my father and grandfather were silent, I decided to ask myself: "So... what's going on? Did you quarrel with Aunt Haruko?"

"No." Yingmu Huadao showed a big smile, "I proposed to Haruko!"

"It's a good thing!" I stood up excitedly, then thought of a not-so-good direction, and sat down with a worried face, "So uncle, have you been rejected?"

"No, Haruko just said to think about it..." Uncle Sakuragi tried to convince us as if trying to prove something while speaking, "Haruko praised me for being a good person."

My father and I looked at each other, and we both saw each other's helplessness in each other's eyes.

At this moment, grandpa picked up the teacup and let out his signature laugh: "Oh ha ha ha ha."

...Grandpa, you are mocking me, aren't you, grandpa?

At this moment, I couldn't help but think of what my good friend Kurosaki Wakarai said-[The "good guy" in girls' mouths first and foremost means "people who are good in everything", no matter how good they are, they can't stop at "people who are convenient and easy to use" ".That is to say, no matter what it is, there is no play. 】

I became worried about Uncle Sakuragi.

At the same time, Uncle Rukawa walked over with a paralyzed face, and left a timely sentence: "Idiot."

For some reason, this time, I felt unable to refute him.

"Ah... Huadao, do you want to stay here too?" Mom came out of the kitchen, rubbing her temples with a headache on her face, "There are not enough rooms at home... I need to tidy up Yizhi's study I came out for you..."

"Hey——" I uttered quite reluctantly, and then I noticed a chilling gaze behind me, and turned my head to see Uncle Sakuragi staring at me with wet and pitiful eyes.

"I, I know... I will temporarily put the things I need in the study at my friend's house! Uncle, you don't have to look at me like this!" Damn it!You are already 26!You don't look cute at all!

Uncle Rukawa stood behind me with a solemn expression: "It's disgusting."

For some reason, this time, I feel that Uncle Rukawa and I are getting closer.

At this point, our house suddenly became lively.

As for the things in my study room... I can discuss with Cao Bi about the things I need to draw comics and reference materials, and temporarily put them in Bingsheng Middle School, anyway, my assistants are there... and the rest Most of the books... Go to Ryoma's house and ask!His place is big enough!

After making up my mind, I ran directly to the next door.Just asked about Karubin.

It was Nanako-san who opened the door for me, and she told me that Ryoma was at the tennis court.I mentioned to her about releasing the books, and she quickly agreed.

But when I was distracted from talking, I didn't notice the tennis ball flying towards me when I walked to the tennis court.

My mind is running fast - yes, I can dodge, but if I dodge, I will hit Nanako sister, I will catch it with my bare hands... No, it will hurt my hand, I still have to draw manga!

Just when I was thinking about it, the tennis ball was stopped by a tennis racket half a meter away from me.

The person holding the tennis racket turned the tennis racket lightly, slapped the tennis ball to the ground, bounced it, and stretched out his hand to hold the tennis ball.He arched his back slightly, tilted his head slightly, looked at me with a casual smile on his face, and said lazily, "Are you all right, young lady?"

The author has something to say: the "good guy" in girls' mouths first of all means "a person who is good in everything", no matter how good it is, it is nothing more than "a person who is convenient and easy to use".That is to say, no matter what it is, there is no play. ——From the quotations of the great teacher
