Did you see it?

　　Contrary to other people's expectations, Shinichi touched his chin and began to think seriously.

　　"Who's that..."

　　He looked at Ichika, his gaze fixed on her face.

　　As the one who asked this question, Ichika looked away feeling guilty. Her smile became a little forced, and her face turned red.

　　(Wait a minute, I'm not the one panicking now.)

　　(I can't be fooled by Shinichi-kun like this!)

　　Ichika controlled her expression, showing a mature smile and looking back.

　　But she found that Shinichi had already shifted his gaze and looked at the next person.

　　Ichika is disappointed.

　　"Huh, am I next?"

　　Nino crossed her arms over her chest, and stared back at his face with burning eyes, wanting to compete with him.

　　Shinichi is ready to accept the challenge.

　　He spread his palms, covering half of his face. Then, his eyes opened, his expression changed, and Shinichi looked at Nino seriously.

　　"!?"

　　At this moment, Nino felt a familiar feeling emerge, the scene in the clothing store where he was talking to her who was in an acting state.

　　That focused and soft look is the same as before!

　　Nino held her red cheeks and turned her head, her heart beating faster, and her mouth agape with joy.

　　The next moment she regained consciousness, she thought it was terrible.

　　(Fall into the trap!)

　　Nino turned her gaze back, only to find that Shinichi glanced at her proudly and then looked away without interest.

　　Nino is sad.

　　Shinichi and Miku looked at each other.

　　Even though Miku's face was red and her hands were tightly holding the hem of the skirt at her knees, she didn't escape in any way.

　　About ten seconds passed like this.

　　Shinichi scratched his neck and looked away.

　　Miku let out a sigh of relief and clenched her fists tightly.

　　"Win!"

　　Yotsuba: "😐"

　　What to win!

　　Are they playing a staring game?

　　She felt something, and she looked forward little by little.

　　There, Shinichi looked at the direction full of fighting spirit.

　　But Yotsuba doesn't want to accept the challenge at all! This matter has nothing to do with her!

　　Yotsuba was about to speak to break the silence.

　　Rui came in holding a teacup and looked at them strangely.

　　"Are you communicating via radio waves?"

　　Shinichi took the teacup from her hand, and answered casually.

　　"It is said that the influence of language only accounts for 7% of communication. We are just experimenting with this, so don't worry."

　　"As if I'm easy to deceive…" Before Rui could finish her words, Yotsuba grabbed her thigh and said with great emotion.

　　"Rui-chan, thank you for saving me! You will be my benefactor from now on. Just ask me to do whatever you want me to do. I, Nakano Yotsuba will help without hesitation!"

　　"Hah? Wh-what? What happened?" Rui looked at Yotsuba who was currently holding his thigh.

　　Ichika and Nino turned their heads, as if they had nothing to do with her.

　　Miku on the other hand was relaxed at the moment. She lifted the teacup and took a sip with her eyes closed. Her temperament was like that of a queen returning from victory.

　　Shinichi also started drinking tea. He ended up avoiding the embarrassing topic. In order to prevent someone from bringing up old matters again, he did not plan to take the initiative.

　　"What is going on..."

　　Rui sighed silently as she stood there.

　　It was just time to make tea, why couldn't she keep up with their speed?

　　They are all weird people, and they are worthy of being the ones who can be friends with this weird brother...

　　Are all the people who like him so strange...

　　Rui's expression became complicated for a moment.

　　Currently, Itsuki had just finished changing clothes with an uneasy expression on her face.

　　"Rui-chan, I tried it, but it always feels a bit tight..."

　　Before Rui could say anything, Nino asked in doubt: "No way? Suitable for me. Our figures should be—"

　　She immediately came to her senses and stopped talking.

　　Ichika covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised: "Has Itsuki started growing again? Already..."

　　"No, I don't think fat in the lower abdomen and fat in the buttocks can be considered growth..."

　　Miku looked down at the jacket in her hands.

　　"Itsuki, admit that you are the fattest of the quintuplets. There is no way to hide it anymore, and it will be easier to give up now."

　　"Don't treat me like a criminal. Being fat is not a crime! And I'm not that fat either! I just accidentally ate too much during summer vacation. I will definitely lose weight in the future! Trust me!"

　　Itsuki's face turned red, after she defended herself, she walked to the sofa feeling depressed.

　　"…Asada-kun, thank you for your jacket."

　　It was clear that she was still a little embarrassed, but her gratitude was well conveyed.

　　Shinichi took the jacket from her and nodded, pretending not to hear the conversation about her figure.

　　Itsuki let out a sigh of relief, her smile finally becoming a little more natural.

　　When she was lifting her leg to walk towards the sofa where the four of them were sitting, her foot suddenly bumped and she accidentally kicked Shinichi's bag to the ground, causing the contents to fall out.

　　"Ah, sorry, I'll take it right away."

　　Before Shinichi could react, Itsuki crouched down and returned the items that had fallen.

　　At first Itsuki didn't want to peek, she just wanted to quickly take the bag, it's best not to look at things that don't belong to her.

　　But just by accidentally glancing at it, her eyes remained fixed on it, her heart trembled slightly, and her breathing slowed down unconsciously.

　　For a moment, all manners were forgotten, and her eyes focused, so that the appearance of the object appeared clearly in her eyes.

　　"This!?"

　　Her eyes immediately widened and she looked at Shinichi in disbelief.

　　Shinichi moved his lips slightly, and said something silently.

　　(Did you see it?)
