She gritted her teeth, her flushed cheeks filled with reluctance, but this tough attitude quickly softened into a feeling of helplessness, shame, and timidity as Akira's hand explored deeper under her skirt.

"No...don't touch there." The voice, which had been stern just moments before, had become so soft that it made one feel weak all over.

The night was as dark as the tide.

......

The warm sunlight shone on the girls' light pink cheeks.

A faint warmth seeped through the folds of the bedding. Akira Kurusu opened her eyes with a hint of helplessness, noticing the dampness on her legs and the surrounding sheets. She thought that Toyokawa Shoko would probably be so embarrassed that she would cry when she woke up soon.

Just as he expected.

Shoko Toyokawa, who was slightly bumped by Akira Kurusu's movements as she woke up, quickly woke up.

She suddenly recalled her experience from last night, and the dampness in the bed at that moment, and tears quickly welled up in her eyes.

"Why are you bullying me?"

The girl asked Lai Xixiao with a wronged expression.

Akira Kurusu, however, could understand this young lady who had almost zero experience in interacting with men, and calmly explained, "There always has to be an adjustment period."

"Excuse! You're just bullying me!" Toyokawa Shoko burst into tears.

Akira Kurusu pulled her left hand, which was trapped between Wakaba Mutsu's legs, and hugged Toyokawa Shoko tightly. The girl was so frightened by the sudden movement that she stopped crying.

Akira Kurusu asked Shoko Toyokawa, "Are you planning to do those things when you get married?"

Thinking about the progress of Akira Kurusu's relationship with Subaru An, Toyokawa Shoko became even more hesitant to look at him, responding only with silence.

For a moment, guilt and self-blame seemed to have broken down the barriers of shyness and reserve.

The atmosphere became awkward.

If Ye Mu was awakened by Kurusu Akira's actions, she groggily opened her eyes, her cheeks flushed. She opened her mouth and let out a short "ah," then curled up helplessly, as if trying to escape something. But the unbearable experience of last night immediately came back to her, causing her to raise her head and look at the boy in front of her with a pitiful expression.

"Xiangzi, you've been bullied."

The general meaning is, "You clearly agreed that you would only bully me."

Toyokawa Shoko immediately struggled to get out of Kurusu Akira's arms.

Akira Kurusu obediently let go of her.

The girl left the warm bed, struggling to overcome her instinctive attachment and reluctance to leave the tenderness, and scolded Lai Qixiao in a trembling voice, "You're not allowed to bully Xiaomu anymore!"

"Although Xiao Mu is naive, she clearly knows more about these things than you do, right?"

Akira Kurusu was too lazy to even comment on these two "half-bodies" who had to consider each other even when it came to matters of male-female relationships.

If Ye Mu wanted to get up like Toyokawa Shoko, but Kurusu Akira pressed down on his shoulder, he immediately nestled obediently in his arms, but closed his eyes, not daring to look at Toyokawa Shoko.

Shoko Toyokawa lay back down in bed, feeling the marks she had left on the sheets the night before. Her face turned bright red. "How embarrassing!"

She said in a low voice.

"You say you want to live with me, someone like you?" Akira Kurusu lazily mocked Shoko Toyokawa's utter weakness.

Fortunately, the maid knocked on the door and came to Toyokawa Shoko's rescue.

The maid's voice came from outside the door.

"Breakfast is being prepared, young masters and ladies, it's time to get up. Today is school day!"

"Go take a shower." Toyokawa Shoko nudged Kuriki Akira's arm, urging him to get up quickly.

"Shall we shower together?"

"You go first!" Toyokawa Shoko raised her voice slightly.

......

Sitting at the dining table, Lai Qixiao took out a knife and fork and started cutting the toast.

Next to the bread was a bowl of cream of mushroom soup.

He dipped the sliced ​​bread in some soup before chewing it.

"You should know what we're going to do today!" Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Wakaba Mutsu, who seemed unable to even hold a knife and fork properly, and felt sorry for the girl, thinking she must have been bullied terribly last night.

Perhaps because there were too many water stains left on the bed, she couldn't count how many times Ruoye Mu had been bullied.

Anyway, she didn't dare to make eye contact with the maid who was tidying up the room.

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes grew increasingly resentful, almost as if she were drilling two holes in Kurusu Akira's face.

Akira Kurusu quickly finished her breakfast. "Making that couple repent is the mission of the Phantom Thief of Mind."

Upon hearing the term "psychic thief," Wakaba Mutsu looked up at Toyokawa Shoko with some surprise, then at Kurusu Akira.

Toyokawa Shoko nudged her shoulder with her arm. "Let's talk about this on the way."

Ruoye Mutsu nodded obediently and then began to eat.

......

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Red Hare."

Lai Qixiao looked at her beloved mount with heartache; its poor body had to bear the weight of three people.

Fortunately, both Wakaba Mutsu and Toyokawa Shoko are petite and slender, so even with them crammed into the driver's seat, it didn't feel too crowded.

As for "traffic safety"?

Akira Kurusu simply ignored it.

The Toyokawa family's big hands will handle the tickets.

He twisted the accelerator and sped toward the Moon Forest Academy, amidst the hateful gazes of countless men along the way.

Getting Wakaba Mutsumi's parents to repent is part of the plan, but before that, he needs the help of psychologist Maruki Takuto to find the specific location in reality where the couple subconsciously believes in their "place of belonging".

The psychologist agreed to spend the daytime interviewing the two celebrities one by one.

Considering Wakaba Mutsu's future normal school life, Kurusu Akira dropped her off at the shopping street opposite Tsukinomori and then turned around to take Toyokawa Shoko to school.

Where are you planning to get off?

He sped along the road, not forgetting to ask the girl behind him.

“You can stop over there,” Toyokawa Shoko said, pointing to the station next to her. “I’ll take the tram myself.”

"Won't we be late?" The motorcycle stopped, and the phantom thief confirmed once again that Toyokawa Shoko was going to get off here.

“You’ll be the one who’s late,” Toyokawa Shoko said in a low voice, then reluctantly let go of Kurusu Akira and left the back seat of the car.

After saying goodbye to her, Lai Xixiao checked the time; there were still thirty minutes left before class.

So I twisted the accelerator and started sprinting towards Cangshan 1-chome.

......

When Akira Kurusu stumbled and fell to the door of Class 2-D's classroom, Sadahiro Kawakami had almost finished calling out all the students' names.

"Issei Rencai."

"arrive."

The girl in the classroom raised her hand.

"Ren Amamiya?"

"arrive."

Akira Kurusu pushed up her crooked glasses.

However, he clearly arrived at the perfect time.

Kawakami Sadahiro, who was the teacher, raised her eyebrows and looked up at the clock at the back of the classroom.

【AM. 8:33】.

Akira Kurusu is already three minutes late.

But when she looked at the thick stack of report cards on the podium and saw "Amamiya Ren's" exaggerated score of tying for first place in the joint exam, she silently put aside all thoughts of reprimand.

Kawakami Sadahiro even said to him in a gentle tone, "Amamiya-kun, please go back to your seat."

Lai Xixiao dashed into the classroom.

Jingqin Rencai glared at him, seemingly protesting that the phantom thief hadn't spent time with her for several days in a row.

Akira Kurusu waved her hand slightly, indicating that she had no choice.

Kawakami Sadaya picked up a ruler and tapped the blackboard three times to draw the attention of the whole class to her.

"Exam week is over, and starting this Tuesday is a four-day outdoor study tour," said Sadayo Kawakami. "Just a reminder, if your club hasn't submitted a special 'club excursion' proposal, then you should meet at the school gate after school as arranged by the school. If your club's proposal has been approved, then you should meet at the designated place as arranged by the club officers."

A small piece of paper was crumpled into a ball and tossed onto Akira Kurusu's desk.

It was written by Jingqinrencai.

Akira Kurusu unfolded the note, revealing a row of delicate handwriting: "Does our club have any special plans?"

After reading it, he took out a pen from the drawer and wrote on the back, "I'll apply today. Also... can't I just use my phone?"

Then he crumpled the note back into a ball and threw it back.

*Thud.* A few seconds later, the paper ball was thrown back. "No cell phones in class!!" Two exclamation marks were emphasized and bolded.

I almost forgot that Jing Qinrencai is a well-behaved student who strictly follows classroom rules.

Somewhat helplessly, Akira played the "passing notes" game with her.

"The study tour is four days long. Are there any places you'd like to visit?"

"It's summer, I want to see the sea."

"That would only be possible near Tokyo."

"Think of something! There's always an activity that everyone can participate in after the band ends."

"Training camp?" A few somewhat filthy thoughts popped into Lai Xixiao's mind, but he quickly shook his head to dismiss them.

"Great! Let's have a training camp!" To everyone's surprise, Izana Izare agreed with Akira Kurusu's idea without hesitation.

The entire classroom was immersed in the wonderful fantasy of "hiking".

Until Kawakami Sadahiro tapped the blackboard with a ruler once again.

"Alright, it's been three days since the end of exam week, and everyone's scores and rankings have all been released."

The classroom immediately turned into a scene of utter despair.

Sadayo Kawakami picked up the report card and began reading from the last page.

"Sakamoto Ryuji, 344 points."

Ryuji Sakamoto walked up to the podium with a delighted expression and took the report card from Sadaki Kawakami.

"Lian, your method really works! Haha, I've really improved!"

"Sakamoto, your deviation score is third from the bottom in the grade. You need to work harder." As soon as she finished speaking, Kawakami Sadayo's cold reprimand came from above.

Ryuji Sakamoto immediately shut his mouth and lay down on the table without saying a word, becoming a coward.

As Kawakami Sadahiro read out each name, a gloomy atmosphere gradually settled over the classroom.

"Jin Cai, 582 points." Kawakami Sadaya nodded kindly to Jin Cai, then reached out and patted Jin Cai's head. "Your deviation score is excellent, and your progress is remarkable."

Serina smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Kawakami-sensei!"

"Yes, yes, it's all thanks to your own hard work." Kawakami Sadaya couldn't help but ruffle the girl's hair.

His subsequent grades were all in the upper echelons of his grade.

In other words, they are the "top students" in the class.

Only when there was only one report card left did Kawakami Sadaya slowly say, "Amamiya Ren, your report card."

This time, she didn't even report her score.
