Ruru

　　Frankly speaking, Shinichi's posture with his hands in his pockets and looking at the sky is not at all handsome and full of Chuunibyou feelings.

　　Rui couldn't take it anymore, so she pulled him towards the sea.

　　Of course she didn't want to cut him up and throw him into the sea, but she wanted to sit with him on the beach so her feet could play in the water.

　　Romantic or not, as long as Shinichi doesn't stand there and pose in a melancholic but actually embarrassing pose.

　　"What if the tide rises? Today I looked at the stars at night and saw the moon causing the tides..."

　　"Don't make a sound. We will go back and change clothes in the worst case."

　　"Reckless. The two of them went out together late at night, but when they came back, they were all soaked. They even wanted to change clothes to hide the fact. If other people find out about this…"

　　"I'll leave it to you, can you speak normally…" Rui felt very tired, and looked at Shinichi with unclear meaning.

　　"Well, but you're right. Just like Fujiwara Senpai, maybe she was waiting for me to return to the room. If she finds out I was out all night or disheveled when I came back, we might receive strange looks tomorrow."

　　"So, in order to maintain personal hygiene, try to always keep your body neat. "

　　"…Why do I smell sour?"

　　"Your illusion."

　　Rui looked away very clearly.

　　It clearly shows that she is jealous.

　　One of Shinichi's strengths is that he never talks nonsense at critical moments and is a person who takes pride in action.

　　So, he took out his phone and switched it to selfie mode, and turned towards Rui so she could clearly see her current behavior.

　　Rui stared at the screen for a few seconds, then took the phone.

　　The phone fell into the sand smoothly.

　　There was silence.

　　Both of them bowed their heads in silence. After a while, Shinichi bent down, took his cell phone, and put it back in his pocket.

　　"You're smiling."

　　Rui's gaze became dull.

　　Shinichi wasn't afraid at all and could even complain in his heart.

　　(I really feel like an "adult" who doesn't learn all the good things but learns the bad things.)

　　"Don't worry, professionally trained people like me won't laugh if we don't dare."

　　"...Is it because you don't dare to laugh, not because you don't want to laugh?"

　　How does she like this man who owes money?

　　Shinichi didn't intend to rearrange his words, he patted her shoulder and said softly.

　　"Rui, whether you are holding a pen, a cell phone, or popping boba milk tea, there are many things in this world that cannot be done. No matter how hard you try to imitate others, it will only add to your sadness. Don't be discouraged, you also have your own destiny."

Rui said calmly.

　　"Yeah, although the thought of sinking to the bottom of the sea with you and dying with you is very strong now, I won't really implement it. This kind of rationality is my advantage, isn't it?"

　　Shinichi took two steps back and nodded.

　　"Although I don't think normal people will really implement it, but now it's whatever you say, and I don't mind."

　　"Childish, like a child!" Rui criticized. Not only was she not angry, she seemed quite happy.

　　"That's what's fun, come sit here."

　　She patted the sand beside her and pointed at Shinichi, who was some distance away from her.

　　"You should sit here. Besides, I am not satisfied with the way you summoned your pet."

　　Shinichi sat some distance from the coastline. He also waved at her and called her affectionately.

　　"Ruru, come here."

　　Rui was in a calm mood, stood up and sat down so that her shoulders could touch his shoulders, and said indifferently.

　　"Ruru… This nickname is not bad."

　　"Very sweet, right? If you like it, in the future…"

　　Shinichi smiled.

　　"Just think about what happened today. Besides, I forgot to record the sound."

　　This was clearly intentional.

　　Rui sighed.

　　This man is good at annoying people and also teasing. Does the girl who likes him have a shitty heart?

　　Of course, she was definitely not included, because she knew Shinichi's reason for doing this, so she resisted the urge to step on her face.
