Sunday evening, Hongo 3-chome, Bunkyo-ku.

Utsunomiya Miu, who had just come out of the station, quickly arrived at the downstairs of Hoshino Aihime's apartment at the agreed time.

Looking at this apartment building that should be quite familiar to her, Utsunomiya Miu felt a little nervous in her heart.

Scenes or pictures that may happen next flashed through the girl's mind quickly, including both good and bad pictures.

All kinds of expected scenes were intertwined, causing the girl to stop unconsciously as she walked towards the door of the apartment.

Immediately afterwards, Utsunomiya Miu lowered his head and opened his black satchel, then took out the mask he had worn at the amusement park a few days ago, and hung it on the side of his head as he did then.

After doing this, the girl's originally agitated and anxious mood eased a little, and her stopped legs moved forward again, walking into the apartment in front of her under the afterglow of the setting sun.

Hoshino Aihime's residence is on the third floor of the apartment building, so it didn't take long for Utsunomiya Miu to arrive at her doorstep.

Before entering, Utsunomiya Miu exhaled softly, and at the same time gently patted both sides of her face with both hands, trying to keep her pretty face as usual.

After doing this, the girl reached out and took out the spare key to the apartment from her bag, opened the door and walked in as usual, and skillfully put on her own pink slippers in the shoe cabinet next to the door.

On the bottom floor of the shoe cabinet, there are four pairs of women's slippers of the same style but slightly different colors. They were specially prepared by Hoshino Aihime for herself and three other divine girls.

Of course, one pair was worn by Hoshino Aihime who was busy in the kitchen.

"Miyu, are you here? I just made a very good cheese rice cake. Come over and try it."

Hearing the sound of the door opening coming from the entrance, Hoshino Aihime, who was frying rice cakes in the kitchen, spoke. During the conversation, she put the newly fried rice cakes on a plate nearby.

Carrying a whole plate of cheese rice cakes, she walked out. Hoshino Aihime, who was wearing a white apron, placed the rice cakes in the center of the dining table, then looked at the girl who had walked to the dining table and said:

"Try it and see how it tastes?"

Under Hoshino Aihime's expectant gaze, Utsunomiya Miu, who still didn't know how to speak, picked up a small piece of rice cake with the chopsticks at the table, then put it into her mouth and chewed it carefully.

"It tastes pretty good to me."

After finishing the small piece of rice cake in his mouth, Utsunomiya Miu commented with a slight smile.

"In that case, you can eat more later if you want. This is what I specially prepared for you tonight."

Hearing that the cheese rice cake she made received good reviews from Utsunomiya Miu, Hoshino Aihime immediately showed a satisfied smile, and then sat down opposite the girl, and at the same time picked up the second pair of chopsticks on the table.

"By the way, Miu, why did you come here wearing a mask this time?"

While putting a piece of cheese rice cake into her bowl, Hoshino Aihime curiously glanced at the mask on Utsunomiya Miu's head, and then asked curiously.

"Oh, you're talking about this."

Utsunomiya Miu subconsciously took off the mask hanging on the side of her head.

The girl finally cheered herself up in her heart, and then replied with a faint smile on her face.

"My boyfriend bought this specially for me."

As a result, as soon as she said these words, Hoshino Aihime's little hand that was about to put the rice cake into her mouth paused for an instant.

What also stagnated was her perfect face, which had almost no flaws.

"Boyfriend, are you kidding?"

After a while, Hoshino Aihime spoke intermittently.

But before Utsunomiya Miu, who was sitting opposite, could reply, Hoshino Aihime suddenly added in realization.

"Oh Miu, you just said your male friend, right? I probably misheard you just now. I'm sorry."

After saying that, Hoshino Aihime let out a few self-comforting giggles, but this return to optimism was soon destroyed to pieces by Utsunomiya Miu's answer.

"No, I'm talking about my boyfriend, and he's the boyfriend who has held hands, hugged and even kissed me." Utsunomiya Miu shook her head and replied.

"You're lying." Hoshino Aihime murmured.

"Everything I said is true, and you also know that person, Sister Ai Ji."

Seeing Hoshino Aihime's appearance at this moment, Utsunomiya Miu sighed quietly in her heart, and then spoke seriously.

"I know him too?"

Hoshino Aihime, whose attention was slightly distracted, repeated the last few words of the girl's words, and a bad feeling began to arise in her heart.

"Yes, you have met in the corridor of the school before. Don't you have any impression?"

"So the Zhe you mentioned earlier refers to?"

"Tetsuya Kiritani, he is my current boyfriend." Utsunomiya Miu nodded her handsome head and said.

At this moment, Hoshino Aihime fell completely silent, and the chopsticks in her hand slipped from her hands at the same time, making a clanging sound, just like the girl's broken heart, which suddenly sounded throughout the apartment.

...

After a few hours.

Ningyocho shopping street late at night.

Ibuki Tamao, who had just left the studio, received a familiar phone call...

"Xiao Yuxu, where are you now?"

Turning on the answer button on the phone, Hoshino Aiki's slightly crying voice came from the other side of the phone.

"I'm still outside now, what's wrong with Aiji-san?" Ibuki Tamao said calmly while holding her cell phone.

"Something happened tonight, can you listen to what I have to say?"

"It's okay, Sister Aiji."

Ibuki Tamao said while standing under the building where the studio is located.

After that, the girl stopped walking forward and listened to the voice on the other side of the phone with peace of mind until the other party finished saying everything she wanted to say.

"I just found out about this. If I could have persuaded Sister Meiyu earlier, maybe this kind of thing wouldn't have happened."

After listening to Hoshino Aiki's account of what happened that night, Ibuki Tamao lowered his head slightly and spoke with some remorse.

"No, this has nothing to do with you. If you want to blame it, it's also the source of the evil that deceived Meiyu."

Hoshino Aihime immediately denied this.

"Xiao Tamao, you and that Kiritani Tetsu are also in the same class, right?"

"Yes."

"Then please tell him for me, congratulations on becoming the first man I will remember in my heart."

Hoshino Aihime spoke with a somewhat stubborn and trembling voice.
