He picked up a piece of Coke cake, and Akane Kirino bit off half of it, his eyes still scanning the table.

"Um...cream stew, fried chicken nuggets, cola cakes, sweet and spicy shrimp, cold kelp..."

She paused, swallowed the food in her mouth, licked her lips, and smiled at the chef in front of her.

“Today’s supper was so hearty.”

"It's okay."

Zong Gu sat opposite, looked at the red marks pressed out on her face when she was sleeping, and lowered his head to take a sip of the woodfish and kombu soup.

"These ingredients are all in the refrigerator, so I'll just use them."

“Eh?”

Yue Duo next to him raised her head, "So it's leftovers... No wonder the sweet and spicy shrimp have a strange smell."

"Even the remaining ingredients are still within the fresh range." Zong Gu glanced at him, "The odor you tasted was when you just ate fried chicken nuggets, and squeezed the lemon juice onto the shrimp."

"Oh oh oh!"

The drizzle made people feel unhappy and were blocked outside the window. Eating the dinner carefully prepared by Soya, Kirino Akane's face finally had a little more smile.

"I feel that the creamy stew made by Sonoya tastes similar to that made by my mother."

He sat upright.

"Yeah."

The host and the host are all happy.

Akane Kirino picked up another piece of fried chicken nugget and put it directly into her mouth. She was too lazy to squeeze lemon juice today.

"I fell asleep unknowingly, but I didn't hear the first call from my mother..."

Kirino Keiko and her husband were going to stay in Saitama for one more day, but she was still worried about her daughter who returned to Kinki alone. After contacting her, she was relieved to find out that she was staying at her old house for dinner at night.

"Hongxun and I will be back tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Akane will ask Sonoya to take care of it first."

"Where...that's all I can do."

"Haha, Zonggu is really steady..."

Perhaps because of the heavy mood, Kirino Keiko did not joke like she usually did, but just expressed her gratitude.

It's all before the meal starts.

Zong Gu picked up a piece of cauliflower filled with cream and asked before putting it in his mouth: "Have you not sleep well?"

"yes."

Looking at the little cream stained on his chin, Akane Kirino's eyes bent, "I don't dare to sleep when I come back alone on Shinkansen..."

Sonoya nodded, "Then let's take a break early."

"I haven't finished my homework yet."

"It's time to make up for it tomorrow."

She shook her head, "I always feel uncomfortable dragging it out, I want to solve it tonight."

Zong Gu has not submitted any permission.

"Eat first."

......

After dinner, Akane Kirino wanted to help wash dishes, but Soya refused, so she returned to the living room to continue to solve her homework.

There are not many homework, but there are several subjects that introduce some new knowledge, which must be learned and understood before they can be completed.

The teachers in Class A and Class B were basically the same. Asakiri used the notes borrowed by Akane Kirino to explain to her.

"Ah, so that's how it is used..."

Akane Kirino looked down at the formula in her notes, and thought and understood for a while. It was not until her thoughts were not hindered that she showed a relaxed smile.

"Suzuki and Soya are both good at math. You all got full marks in the last exam, right?"

He nodded at Wuling, but only admitted the results of the last exam and did not fully agree with her words.

“I’m not good at math.”

"Ling is too modest."

"It's not that I'm humble, I just spent some more time to understand."

"If you spend more time to become good at it, mathematics will not become the most troublesome subject...ah, Soya."

After washing the dishes, Zong Gu went to the bathroom to confirm the hot water condition and just arrived in the living room.

He also heard the two of them.

"Ling is more interested in content like literature and history, and is indeed not very good at math."

Akane Kirino held her chin, "Can you get full marks if you are not good at math?"

"Didn't the bell say it? She just spent some more time."

“How long does it take?”

"Half a century..." After looking at Wuling, Zonggu changed his words, "It's about ten years."

Akane Kirino just thought he was joking and glared at him.

"The hot water has been put."

Zong Gu looked down at Chao Wuling, "Ling will wash first, leave it here to me."

"Um."

She got up and left the living room.

"How is it?" He glanced at the notes on the desktop, "It should be almost done, right?"

"There is a little left." Akane Kirino said.

Zong Gu sat down and signaled her to continue.

"I'll take you back later."

"Hmm? I won't go back today."

"Stay overnight here?"

"yes."

After all, she is the only one in the family.

Zong Gu nodded quickly, "Which room does the eldest lady want to sleep in? I'll make the bed."

Akane Kirino smiled, "Whatever."

"Sleep upstairs." He looked at the notes, "Are there any clothes to change here?"

She suddenly stood up.

Soya looked up and Akane Kirino reached out to him.

"Go and get it now."

It was drizzling outside and it was dark.

Walking out of the entrance, Sonoya opened the umbrella, and Akane Kirino squeezed in.

"Let's go."

There was no one on the road, and a lamp was hanging in the distance, and the raindrops fell.

When I walked to the intersection, I could see several figures on the other side.

"Can Soya see them?"

"It's a man who can see it."

Soya Duo looked at him, "The one standing on the left is Mr. Oba, who runs the winery."

"Ah...it seems to be a bit like him."

Akane Kirino retracted her gaze and continued to walk forward, "Since there have been more spirits nearby, it's okay during the day, but when walking at night, I can't help but think too much."

"It doesn't matter if you meet a spirit." Zong Gu held the umbrella and leaned towards her. "If you turn a blind eye, most spirits will not behave like this."

"It's much easier for you to hurt them than they do. Whether it's an umbrella or a branch, it's all weapons in the hands of the Spirit Awareness."

She shook her head, "I won't take the initiative to hurt them."

"Um."

He just wanted Akane Kirino to realize that she was not powerless to resist when she encountered a spirit body to reduce her fear.

When he arrived at Kirino's house, Kirino Akane went up to pack her clothes. Sonogu was waiting underneath, and it took him a long time to see her come down.

“…What are you doing with your suitcase?”
