I.W.B.A.L

Chapter 64: 64



  Kento does not know what the relationship between this and angels is. Anyway, this kind of divination game has become popular in the 1870s, and it is still very popular among primary and secondary school students.

  He glanced at Sekai Saionji who was beside him, and Setsuna who was sitting opposite him. Even if they were high school girls, they were still middle school students, so there was nothing wrong with them.

  "I want to try it, too."

  Shanna looked at Kento and answered calmly. Her heart was the same as Kento's. She did not believe in those so-called fox fairies, but she still wanted to give it a try.

  "So, there are two of us now!"

  Saionji Sekai looked at Kotonoha and Kento who was sitting silently beside them, trying to put some pressure on them with her eyes. She stared at the two people who had not yet expressed their opinions. Kento sat quietly in his seat, picked up the tea in front of him, and took a sip. As for Katsura Kotonoha, she hesitated for a moment, glanced at Saionji Sekai who was very interested, and Setsuna who was silent beside them, then slowly raised her little hand.

  "Then... I'll join in, too."

  "Alright! That's three votes already! Now, Miyamizu-kun, are you still going to stick to your opinion?"

  Saionji Sekai tilted her head slightly and moved her body closer to Kento, looking at Kento with a cunning expression. Kento, who was not very interested in this, sighed slowly and nodded.

  "Since you all want to try it, then let's do it together. However, this isn't a very appropriate time, right?"

  I glanced outside and saw that the sun was still hanging in the sky. It wasn't time to set yet, but the sky outside was so bright. It seemed that the spirits in the rumors would not appear at this time, right?

  Kento is indifferent to this aspect, but he still has some basic knowledge about it.

  "Well, it is usually done late at night, especially in a quiet and dark place, it will be more effective. But we are just trying it out, whether it works or not is not that important. Let's do it at dusk. After all, isn't dusk called the 'time of demons'?"

  Seeing that Saionji Sekai seemed to have suddenly become interested, Kento didn't care. He quietly lowered his head and drank the tea in his cup. However, while looking at the cup, he seemed to see Katsura Kotonoha on the other side, glancing at him from time to time.

  His sight shifted slightly and when he looked at Gui Yanye beside him, the girl suddenly withdrew her gaze and lowered her head. Her evasive expression and eyes made Kento pay attention.

  He didn't seem to have any contact with Kaede Kotonoha, so why was the other party's reaction so subtle?

  Kento, who was a little confused in his heart, stared at Katsura Kotonoha for a while, then slowly retracted his gaze. Setsuna, who was sitting opposite him, had already frowned at this moment. If he continued to stare at Kotonoha, Setsuna would probably get angry too, right?

  The atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet, and everyone just sat quietly in their seats, waiting for the arrival of the 'Time of Demon'.

  Saionji Sekai began to remind Setsuna and Katsura Kotonoha, who didn't know much about this, about some things to pay attention to when they were going to "invite the fox fairy" later.

  Looking at Katsura Kotonoha who nodded from time to time with an expression of "I see", and then looking at Saionji Sekai who was grinning, Kento didn't know what Saionji Sekai was trying to do. He just instinctively realized that she didn't seem to have simply good intentions, and there must be some other purpose.

  In spring, it gets dark very quickly. Unlike in summer when it gets completely dark at seven or eight o'clock, in spring, you can already see the sunset at around five o'clock.

  The girls who had been sitting in the house waiting for a long time looked at the table that had been cleaned long ago. On it was a piece of white paper with "yes" and "no" written on it, as well as numbers and hiragana, and coins dropped on the paper. The four of them sat around the table without turning on the lights.

  In the evening glow, four people sat quietly at the table. Each of them stretched out an index finger and placed it on the coin. The coin was not big to begin with, and with each of the four people holding down the coin, it barely occupied an edge.

  "Well, let's get started. Ask first!"

  Saionji Sekai looked at the other three people and slowly began to ask.

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, are you here?"

  The coin under his finger moved slightly. Kento hardly used any force. He just looked at the corner occupied by the Saionji world and exerted a little force to move the coin in the direction of "yes". Kento did not stop it and let the coin move to "yes".

  Setsuna glanced at Saionji Sekai and had basically seen through this game. Her interest in it was instantly reduced and her gaze fell on Kento. As for Kotonoha, she looked at the coin with some confusion and glanced at Saionji Sekai who was sitting opposite her.

  Facing the gaze that Katsura Kotonoha was looking at her, Saionji Sekai decisively pretended not to see it.

  "The fox fairy has arrived. Now you can ask her questions."

  "Fox fairy, fox fairy, who does Saionji Sekai like?"

  "...."

  As soon as Saionji Sekai finished speaking, Setsuna suddenly spoke, glanced at the girl beside her, and the finger on the coin moved towards Hiragana. Before Saionji Sekai could react, she watched Setsuna move the coin to the Hiragana area.

  By the time she realized what was happening and started to exert her strength——

  The coin had already stopped steadily on a hiragana character. Saionji Sekai pursed her lips and glanced at Setsuna - her face expressionless.

  Then he slowly looked at Kento standing beside him - his face was calm.

  "...."

  Feeling that her nervousness was all just her own wishful thinking, Sekai Saionji felt sad and looked gloomily at Kotonoha who was sitting opposite her.

  "Since Setsuna and I have already asked, it's Kotonoha next."

  "Uh... well, that... Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, is that what I saw really what I thought it was?"

  A puzzling question suddenly came out of Katsura Kotonoha's mouth, and the other three people just silently let the coin move around on the paper. Setsuna was casual, Saionji Sekai was also casual, and as for Kento, he didn't know what it was, but his intuition told him that it would be better to move it to 'no'.

  The coin floated on the paper, and Kotonoha, who had left everything to the other three to decide, watched the coin move to 'No'.

  Seeing the answer that ended in "no", Kotonoha slowly raised her head and looked at Kento. Seeing Kento who didn't seem to react and didn't look at her, Kotonoha felt a little relieved in her heart. She looked at Setsuna, and their eyes met at that moment -

  Setsuna looked into Kotonoha's eyes, not knowing why she fixed her gaze on Kento, but she also vaguely realized that it might be related to Kento.

  Now, with Saionji Sekai by his side, Setsuna did not ask about the confusion in his heart, but just kept it in his heart silently.

  After seeing Katsura Kotonoha ask a somewhat puzzling question, Saionji Sekai turned his gaze to Kento.

  "So, what does Kento want to ask?"

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, who will I marry?"

  Without thinking too much, Kento, who had basically guessed what the game was about, asked a question casually, and was about to move the coin directly to the 'き' of Setsuna. However, just as he finished speaking and was about to move the coin to the 'き', he suddenly found that the coin did not move at all.

  "...."

  Katsura Kotonoha didn't react at all, she lowered her head quietly, her fingers pressing the coin, while Setsuna silently exerted force, preparing to move the coin to 'き', but Saionji Sekai...

  Everything else was fine, but she decided to try for this one.

  Saionji Sekai, who was originally smiling, now bit her lips and tried to move the coin to Saionji Sekai's 'さ'. Setsuna looked at Saionji Sekai and then at Kento.

  Kento was silent for a moment, and used a little strength in his hand, then watched the coin flying around on the paper. After a moment, it flew up from the paper with a "bang", bounced to the ground beside, and lay quietly on the floor, making Saionji Sekai's expression suddenly pale. She bit her lips and looked at the coin lying on the ground.

  "world."

  He looked at the paper with scratches left by the coin, then looked at the coin again, and then his gaze fell on Sekai Saionji beside him.

  Standing up quietly, Saionji Sekai picked up the coin that fell on the ground, looked at Setsuna and Kotonoha who were sitting in the room, and no longer looked at Kento, and walked quietly towards the door. After a rustling sound, the sound of the door opening was also heard.

  After the door closed, there were only three people left in the room.

  Katsura Kotonoha roughly guessed why Saionji Sekai wanted to leave. Looking at the two people sitting quietly in the room, she hesitated for a moment, glanced at the evening sky outside, and stood up quietly.

  "Well, it's getting late. I'll take my leave now."

  "Um."

  An awkward atmosphere filled the air. Kento looked at Gui Yanye who stood up and smiled at her. The girl bowed slightly, said goodbye to the two of them, turned around and walked towards the door.

  Looking at Katsura Kotonoha's back, Kento's gaze fell on Setsuna.

  "Saionji she..."

  "I already knew about this a long time ago, so it's not surprising. I just didn't expect her to be so emotional. I won't be angry."

  He expressed his thoughts calmly, looked at Kento in front of him for a moment, was silent for a moment, lowered his head, then slowly raised his head and looked at Kento in front of him.

  "Just now, what Kotonoha said, did she see anything related to you?"

  "Um?"

  Kento shook his head at the sudden question.

  He didn't know, and he didn't know what was going on.

  Setsuna pulled out the wallet from his pocket, took out the coins from it and placed them on the paper. Even though what happened just now left many marks on the paper, one could still clearly see what was written on it, as well as the coins used for the fox fairy game just now.

  "Go on."

  "Fox Fairy Game?"

  "Um."

  Seeing the coin placed on the paper and the moment when the coin was gently pressed with the finger, Kento looked at the girl with a hesitant expression on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his finger and gently pressed the other side of the coin.

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, what Yanye just said, is it related to Kento?"

  The coin moved on the paper, Kento did not use any force, but Setsuna slowly moved the coin to 'yes'.

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, is it true that Kento doesn't know about this?"

  This time it was Kento who used a little force to move the coin to 'yes'. Feeling the coin slowly moving to 'yes', Setsuna glanced at Kento.

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, does Kento really like me?"

  The coin moved slightly on the paper, instantly pushing the coin to the 'no' side, and Kento felt the force on the coin, and he also silently used some strength to move the coin to the 'yes' side.

  Even though Setsuna tried his best, he still couldn't avoid being pushed to the conclusion of "yes" by Kento.

  "Well, one last question then."

  Looking at Kento's statement, Setsuna asked the last question.

  "Fox Fairy, Fox Fairy, what is the relationship between Kento and my mother Qingpu Mai?"

  As he finished speaking, Kento's finger pressing on the coin trembled slightly. He sat in his seat in silence, slowly raised his head, and looked at Setsuna opposite him with a seemingly confused expression.

  The coin did not move on the paper, and Setsuna did not move either. He just quietly looked at the expression on the face of Kento sitting opposite him. He withdrew his fingers from the coin, turned his head to look at the refrigerator beside him, and stood up.

  "It's almost time for Mom to go home. Let's prepare dinner."

  "....Um."

  There was a bit of silence. Kento looked at the moment when she stood up, as if she had noticed something but didn't ask anything. Not knowing what the other party was thinking, he stood up quietly and followed the girl to the refrigerator, where he took out the ingredients and prepared dinner.

  His mind was in a mess, but perhaps because of his guilty conscience, he was unable to take the initiative to speak to Setsuna.

  The two prepared dinner together, but remained silent.

  In silence, the two of them worked together to finish dinner. As for Qingura Mai, she returned home almost half an hour after the two of them prepared dinner. As soon as she arrived at Kento's apartment, she noticed the strange atmosphere in the house that was different from usual.

The season when cherry blossoms bloom: 103. I am a scholar, it is normal for me to encounter such things!

  As soon as she entered the house, Qingpu Mai noticed the strange atmosphere. Compared with the usual silence, the atmosphere in the house at this moment was more like depression, which made Qingpu Mai's eyes fall on Kento, and she found that Kento's expression was very heavy.

  He looked at his daughter again, and there was no expression on her face as usual.

  "What's wrong? The atmosphere today seems a little off. Did Kento do something?"

  Hearing what Qingpu Mai said, Kento couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He didn't expect Qingpu Mai to bring up such a sensitive topic as soon as she came in. Because Setsuna had been staying by his side, he had no chance to contact Qingpu Mai and ask her to pay attention.

  Shanda, who had been sitting quietly at the table, glanced at Qingura Mai after hearing her mother's words, then slowly shook her head.

  "No, it's nothing. Dinner is ready. Let's eat together first."

  "...."

  After taking a look at Shanta, she turned her gaze to Kento, hoping that he could give her some information, but when she looked at Kento, she only saw him shaking his head slightly.

  Unable to obtain any useful information, Qingura Mai could only sit down silently in her usual seat, watching Kento stand up and bring dinner to the table. Everyone sat at the table together and had dinner quietly.

  "Well, then, I'll start."

  Qingpu Mai, who had no idea what to do, picked up the chopsticks in front of her and quietly started to eat her dinner. As for Kento, he looked at Qingpu Mai and felt a little unsure in his heart. He glanced at the calm moment and felt that he seemed to have overreacted a little.

  I closed my eyes, calmed myself down, stopped thinking about so many problems, and started having dinner.

  The three people sitting in a room had their dinner peacefully without anything to do. When dinner was over, Kento took the initiative to take charge of the cleanup. He brought the dishes to the sink on the kitchen counter and washed them quietly by himself. As for Qingura Mai, she focused her attention on Setsuna.

  "What's wrong, Setsuna, did something happen today?"

  "Nothing happened, it's just that mom slept very soundly last night."

  When Shanshan's voice rang out, the concerned expression on Qingpu Wu's face couldn't help but freeze. Looking at her daughter in front of her, Qingpu Wu's eyes couldn't help but become vague, but she subconsciously let her gaze look directly at her daughter, her eyes lowered slightly, not daring to look her daughter directly in the eye.

  "Is that so? Maybe it's because I was very tired from working during the day, so I slept more deeply."

  "I see. Mom has been working hard all this time."

  Looking at Qingpu Mai in front of him, Shanna's eyes softened a little. He silently withdrew his gaze from Qingpu Mai, and did not say anything else. He just sat quietly in his seat.

  Kento was standing at the kitchen counter, quietly cleaning up the dishes and listening to the noises in the living room. He felt that the atmosphere seemed to have eased a little. He raised his head and looked at the mother and daughter sitting opposite each other. His eyes were a little complicated. After thinking about it, he felt that if he was a little more careful, there would be no problem.
