The hopeful suspicion

"We should quickly sneak into my room so no one would notice us...!"

Mason whispered, tiptoeing after Cranberry, who was walking casually through the empty hallways.

The red-haired girl would only briefly stop before an open door or a passage and gripped her baseball bat a bit tighter each time she heard someone passing, but thankfully for everyone else, she never had to use it.

Thought that could be partially contributed to her reasonably high LUC stat...

"Ah, this is the door...! Umm...? Big sister Cranberry...?"

Mason perked up when the two of them approached a door to his room, Cranberry even opened the door, but after a brief look, she closed it and continued moving through the hallway pulling the brown-haired young man with her.

"We'll return later, let's continue exploring for now..."

Cranberry said absentmindedly as if she was waiting for something.

"O-oh... okay... if you want to..."

Mason agreed slightly confused.
