Itsuki is a Stalker

　　"Maybe this..."

　　Ichika's mouth twitched. Inside the bag were the same jacket, sunglasses, and mask as the suspicious person, all emitting a strange aura.

　　"This is used for disguise." Itsuki's voice came out of her mask, sounding a bit strange, "Please remember, this is a non-discoverable operation. As long as it is not discovered, it cannot be defined as a crime, so we have to hide yourself, for Asada's sake... For Nino's safety, please let me lead the team next, and I hope you can monitor my command during the incubation period!"

　　Three people: "😐"

　　Those three disdainful eyes stared at her for a few seconds, and Itsuki trembled slightly. After a minute, she couldn't hold it in and shouted in a self-blaming tone.

　　"I know! Stop looking at me, I'll just confess! I told Asada-kun…"

　　"The reaction during the date was very interesting, but I couldn't date him alone, and it's a bit embarrassing for a girl to take the initiative to ask a guy out, so..."

　　"Wuwuwu, that's enough, don't make me feel guilty anymore..."

　　Itsuki held her head and squatted down, tears of shame filling her eyes.

　　"It's okay, Itsuki."

　　Ichika patted Itsuki's shoulder, letting her head rest on her chest. To stabilize her mood, she also whispered words of comfort in her ear.

　　"Don't worry, stalker Itsuki is also one of my favorite family members. Onee-san will take good care of you."

Yotsuba also approached and comforted her.

　　"We all know that Itsuki is a stalker, but I think it's your own characteristics, Itsuki, what makes you different from us! Don't feel inferior because of this!"

　　Miku knelt in front of her and stroked her head, her voice calm and peaceful that made people feel comfortable.

　　"I was afraid that Shinichi would be snatched away by Nino, so I suggested following them on their date... And Itsuki was just afraid that we would do something stupid, so she followed us here to keep an eye on us."

　　Miku smiled softly.

　　"Hand over my mistakes. Itsuki is my little sister, as long as she is happy, I will be fine."

　　Itsuki immediately cried.

　　"Wuuuuu..."

　　△

　　"Nino said she wanted to date a boy. We were worried about her so we followed her out. We didn't expect that her date would be Shinichi-kun."

　　Embarrassed to tell the truth, Ichika answered on their behalf. Yotsuba and Itsuki who felt guilty about lying, hid behind Miku, receiving a rather subtle gaze from Rui.

　　"Your relationship is indeed very good!" Hina showed a reassuring smile, and saw the two people who were buying takoyaki on the side of the road were about to come forward again. She waved at everyone and prepared to leave the shelter in front of her.

　　"Be careful not to lose track of them. This is the direction they are heading…"

　　Ichika smiled and grabbed the hem of her clothes, and Hina's anxious expression froze in place.

　　"Tachibana Sensei, you haven't said the reason why you followed Shinichi-kun on a date. Didn't you agree to be honest with each other?"

　　"Now, better follow them now..."

　　"Don't worry, I just locked Nino's cell phone location, and now we won't get lost even if we go to the cold drink shop." Ichika shook the phone, and she smiled brightly and kindly, "Tachibana Sensei, you're not the kind of adult who doesn't mean what you say to a child, right?"

　　"Ugh…" Hina felt an inexplicable sense of oppression, and she didn't dare look at Ichika's eyes.

　　After averting her gaze and hesitating for a moment, she turned to look at Rui and gestured.

　　Rui shook her head first, then said to Ichika.

　　"It's too suspicious for that guy to sneak out. We were afraid that he would go to the shadows, so we followed him secretly to prevent being unable to explain when his mother came back from China."

　　Of course this was also a lie… She couldn't say that Hina did it just to let Rui see if Shinichi was a fuckboy.

　　Rui isn't brave enough to confess her feelings to everyone. Except for a few individuals, she would not take the initiative to reveal anything, and she was not stupid enough to tell everything to a "potential love rival".

　　Ichika's eyes met Rui's. After a pause with each other. Then she left.

　　Shinichi and Nino were gone. The group of six hung far behind them, watching them walk side by side intimately along the road. They always felt that the air was filled with a sour smell.

　　Fortunately, the scene of two people holding hands was not visible.

　　Of course there were moments of boredom during this period, so the six of them started chatting with each other and changing clothes, after all, they were too conspicuous and easily spotted by others.

　　"It turns out that our tutor is Asada-kun's cousin, and Tachibana Sensei and Rui-chan are siblings. We just missed it the last time we visited the Asada family… Life is as full of surprises as one would expect."

　　On the way, Itsuki feels emotional.

　　"By the way, does Asada-san know about this?"

　　Miku recalled, then answered Yotsuba's question with some uncertainty.

　　"I don't know... I remember the last time I went to his house with Yotsuba, he rudely called our tutor stupid... So, he was actually scolding his cousin?"

　　This sentence made the two brothers squint their eyes at the same time.

　　"The last time I went to his house with Itsuki... This is the first time I've heard of something like this..." Ichika became curious.

　　"Shinichi-kun, how dare you call me an idiot behind my back… Hehehehehe, he's finished!" Hina laughed several times, her hands clenched into fists.

　　But she suddenly thought of something, and looked towards Itsuki.

　　"Wait a minute, so what you told me before was 'a learning method recommended by a famous tutot that is suitable for the five of you.' the famous tutor you respect so much…"

　　Is that her cousin?
