Rui is not alone

　　The plan for the next day was to visit various places along the route home, including several historical sites, department stores, and entertainment facilities.

　　Although they encountered several life-related accidents on their journey, with everyone's joint efforts, the accidents were successfully resolved and did not affect their mood for fun.

　　"Uh—" Shirogane whose mouth and hands were tied, wanted him to say something, but since no one understood what he was saying, his opinion was automatically ignored.

　　On the other hand, Kaguya who was holding the rope in her hand had a strange expression. Seeing Shirogane struggling, a blush appeared on her face for some reason, her breathing began to quicken, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

　　Whatever happens, a summer trip for nine people and a butler ends when the sun sets.

　　After a day of playing around, everyone was too tired to move, once they got on the bus, they were ready to sleep until they got home.

　　The seats are still the same, Shirogane and Kaguya; Ishigami, Iino; Moeha, Kei; Shinichi and Rui.

　　As for Chika, she no longer sat alone. A large zombie doll was placed on the chair next to her, its scary, dark green head pressed against its head.

　　This is Shinichi's doing.

　　"So you're going to practice how to pin dolls when you get back?"

　　Rui once asked this, but Shinichi answered correctly.

　　"My entire life and all my energy has been dedicated to the most extraordinary cause in the world, learning for the growth of humanity! This does not include claw machines."

　　Rui said without changing her expression, "I heard that guys who can get dolls from claw machines are more popular. Whether they show off their skills or give away dolls, they can please women very well."

　　Shinichi lifted his chin.

　　"Do I still need to rely on such strange and obscene skills? Stop joking! Do you think I am the kind of guy who will do anything to seduce girls?"

　　However, it doesn't take long for Rui to find out that Shinichi has secretly added information about calit machines and various videos to his web page bookmarks.

　　The lack of honesty rooted in his bones is probably what makes him even more popular.

　　On the bus, Rui was still sitting by the window.

　　Their legs were covered with a thin blanket, their cell phone was put back in their pocket, and they were ready to sleep like this until they got home.

　　Rui glanced at the window and casually tilted her head to the shoulder of the man next to her.

　　Shinichi looked at her silently.

　　Not only the two of them, the other seats also didn't hear the sound.

　　After looking at Rui for a few seconds, Shinichi suddenly laughed lightly.

　　Turning onto her back, she adjusted her position so she could lean against him more comfortably, then slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

　　Rui closed her eyes, feeling the warmth.

　　After an unknown amount of time, the two fell asleep. Shinichi also leaned his head towards her and pressed her hair.　

　　 Rui is not alone.

　　So even in her dreams, she could smile.

　　△

　　Return to Asada's house.

　　It was still dark at night, and the entrance light illuminated the room.

　　As the two people dragging their luggage opened the door, suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a long-haired woman rushed out of the living room and ran towards them crying.

　　"You are finally back! I'm so lonely, wuwuwuwu..."

　　Both of them were caught off guard and hugged by Hina. They pressed their hands against each other's chests and buried them firmly into her ample breasts. Then they listened to her sobs above her head.

　　"I learned one thing from this brief solitude as a housekeeper. My abilities have limits. The more I try to surpass myself, the more painful failures I will experience…"

　　Hina hugged her tighter: "I can't live without you! I really miss Rui's cooking, and I miss the feeling of being looked down upon by Shinichi-kun!"

　　Shinichi's cheeks were pressed by breasts, his eyes showed an expression of giving up on thinking.

　　Rui clenched the tanvan into a claw shape, and grabbed the breasts that were trying to strangle them.

　　"Hyaaa~"

　　As Hina let go of her hand, they both took a step back at the same time, brushing their messy hair back. They looked at her crouching on the ground.

　　"Hina Nee-san, if you are sick, go to the doctor. Don't cause trouble for us here."

　　"This is actually a double attack?!"

　　△

　　"…This might be what happened."

　　The three of them stood in front of the living room door. When the other two fell silent Hina shook her head with regret.

　　"What kind...?"

　　Rui gritted her teeth and glared at Hina, pointing angrily towards the kitchen.

　　"You don't give any reason, just let us see this scene, then you tell me this?"

　　"Oh, I think you'll know what's going on just by looking at it~"

　　Hina stuck out her tongue, and winked in a cute way.

　　"After all, we are the best sisters!"
