"So, is this the reason why you went out this time and brought back a little girl again?"

Illya now thinks back on it, whether it's Yukino, many Cursed Children, or Mashiro-chan, Hoshiki always seems to bring back one or two little girls every time he goes out, and this seems to have become a theorem.

Illya was not angry or dissatisfied. After all, it was not that he had done anything shameful, but... something felt wrong.

"Yes, I was just entrusted by my friend to take this child back to school."

After eating a game of game just now, Xingke opened the space directly in his room, and then brought Lottie and her luggage over.

But what Xingke didn't expect was that Illya was drinking tea and reading a book behind him at this moment, and happened to see Xingke coming back... No wonder the lights were so bright at night even though he was not there.

So Xingke spent a minute and a half briefly introducing Lottie’s origins.

"That... visiting your house at night is really disturbing..."

At this time, Lottie, the most popular guest, mustered up the courage to stand up, bowed slightly, and politely introduced herself to Ilia:

"My name is Lottie Jansen, a disciple of Lindel of the Song of Flowers and a student of the Clock Tower... Am I the sister of Professor Cavendish?"

Lottie had already noticed that two people who looked so similar, and one was lively and the other was lazy, both contained some similar "mysterious" qualities, so they must be sisters!~

But she seems to have guessed wrong...

"Ah, my lovely child..." Illya smiled slightly, stretched out a hand behind her back to Lottie, and introduced herself:

"Illyasviel Einzbern is now Geese's mother!~"

"...Huh?" This sentence made Lottie a little confused.

"By the way, you're staying overnight, right? Unfortunately, I just moved into this house recently. I don't know where the guest room is, but I will ring the bell for you to call the maid..."

Before Lottie could utter her question, she was blocked by Illya's words. She spoke for a long time and was very panicked.

But at this moment, the person who just saved her heard a knock on the door and a door open...

"Sister Illya, have you gone to bed..., eh? Brother? Are you back?"

A half-length girl with wavy hair walked in from the door and saw Xingke sitting there waving to her.

"Diana?!"

Lottie covered her surprised mouth and looked at the visitor in a white nightgown.

"Oh... Lottie!? Why are you at my house?"

Diana was also stunned for a moment. If Xingji came back, it was not beyond her imagination, but she couldn't understand why her former classmates would appear in her home.

"Is this also Diana's home?"

Lottie felt as if the gears in her heart had clicked somewhere.

"Yes, this is the Cavendish family's home, didn't you know?"

Although she couldn't understand it, Diana was only slightly surprised. Then she calmed down after entering the room and sat directly next to Illya, opposite Lottie.

"...Is it true? Professor Cavendish and Diana are a family?"

"That's it for now." Diana nodded affirmatively.

Xingke and Illya were not surprised at all. There were only a few students in Hohenheim, and even fewer had the honor of being promoted to the Clock Tower. It was not surprising at all that they knew each other.

"Oh, that's it..." Although Lottie was a little surprised because of the coincidence, she calmed down when she thought of the rumors about the surname [Cavendish].

Instead, she took a sip of the tea Illya handed her with some peace of mind because she saw an acquaintance in a strange place:

"I had no idea, Diana, that you actually have a genius sister who is a professor. Could it be that after I left the academy..."

"Pfft, no, no, no, Lottie, what are you talking about!?"

Diana was suddenly shocked again, even more panicked than when she suddenly saw Lottie.

"Pffffffff, interesting."

Illya couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands, turned her head and snickered.

"Oh? What's wrong? Isn't the professor Diana's sister..."

Is she Diana's sister? Is she just too young? Am I wrong again in my guess about seniority? Lottie felt a little aggrieved.

"No, this is not a matter of seniority, but..."

Diana, who wanted to give a good explanation, suddenly lost her mind.

Speaking of which, how should I explain it? Who is Xing Ke to me? Brother? Nephew? By the way, in the eyes of outsiders, he is my nephew... But, the fundamental problem is not here.

"Lottie, this guy is obviously wearing men's clothing, right? Why is he misunderstood as my sister?!" Diana asked with a headache.

Obviously her recent illness has just improved today, but why is it relapsing now? It's strange...

"But, it's obviously Master...He told me first...Professor Cavendish is a girl..." Lottie was really aggrieved when Diana questioned her. Could it be that Master had lied to herself again this time? But

He would not lie even if he promised a long time ago.

"Pfft." Illya covered her stomach with her hand and hammered the sofa with her other hand, just to prevent herself from laughing.

"(sniff)(exhale)(tea is so delicious)"

Xingke no longer cared about such trivial matters, and he no longer wanted to explain anything.

"Lottie, you..."

What kind of bad teacher did she encounter? Diana didn't say this. She was a good child who knew politeness and etiquette and would not slander other people's teachers.

However, this time she was really worried about whether her classmate, who had been arranged by the Clock Tower to study abroad a year ago, would meet some perverted old man and a liar teacher.

"Well, that's it for today. Let's talk about anything tomorrow!" Illya suddenly stopped the conversation with a strange smile:

"Diana? Can you help Lottie find a guest room? She is being entertained by Keith tonight and will stay here."

"Well, I understand. Although there are too many misunderstandings to resolve, it is not etiquette to keep guests from afar waiting for a long time at night..."

Diana stroked her forehead, stood up, took out her wand, and cast a spell to make Lottie's luggage float:

"Please come with me, classmate Lottie..."

"Well, okay, thank you, Diana..." It's great to meet an acquaintance. Thinking in her heart, Lottie quickly said goodbye to Xingke and Illya, and followed Diana out of the door.

Then, only Illya was left in the room and asked Xingji with a smile like a little devil:
Chapter completed!
