Chapter 512: Has the choice been made?
On the other hand, the six people hiding behind the trees didn't have much expression, but looked a little gloomy and dull.
"They went to a doll shop. Let's buy something to eat first. It's best to buy something that can be eaten with your hands..."
Ichika looked around at everyone, and spoke softly.
"If you still have plans to follow them."
Miku had been very quiet since entering the zoo, still not speaking and not daring to look at Ichika.
Her expression was hidden behind her thick bangs, and the palms in her sleeves were clenched into fists.
"Miku..."
Wanting to cheer her up, Yotsuba approached her, smiling as enthusiastically as ever.
"Wow, Nino is really scary today! She was so proactive that Asada-san didn't even know how to react..."
Pretending to say this casually, Miku still didn't respond. Yotsuba was anxious, then said in a cheerful voice.
"Ah, maybe Asada-san's hands are cold today, so he asked Nino to—"
"They shouldn't be dating."
Taking out a pair of red-rimmed glasses from somewhere, Itsuki interrupted her words.
"Itsuki?"
Yotsuba wanted to continue comforting Miku, and was about to tell Itsuki not to bother her with her eyes, but found that Miku raised her head after hearing what Itsuki said, and her dim eyes shone with light.
Yotsuba retreated backwards.
Itsuki didn't pay attention to their reactions, she focused her gaze, and muttered an analysis.
"Don't talk about Nino's reaction when she comes out. Their attitudes towards each other weren't that close... Then why didn't Asada-kun reject Nino's initiative and continue to hold his hand? Asada-kun's awkward personality makes it impossible for him to behave intimately with a girl before confirming the relationship."
"Is it because he wants to fall in love, he took the initiative to shorten the distance with Nino? Or is Nino related to Asada-kun and forced to do this? Besides, what was the reason they were dating? Why did Asada-kun agree to Nino's invitation..."
Gather clues and analyze rationally.
All the information flashed through her mind like puzzle pieces forming a picture called the truth.
A sharp light flashed through her eyes, a clear smile appeared on Itsuki's face.
"So that's how it is, I understand!"
"…Understand what?" Miku asked nervously.
Yotsuba also looked at Itsuki, (If Itsuki knew Asada-san that well, she would know the real reason and she would definitely comfort Miku!)
Ichika was a little surprised.
(Did she really guess what Shinichi-kun was thinking? Obviously I didn't tell her what happened yesterday...)
Under everyone's gaze, Itsuki smiled confidently, and touched her slim and toned stomach.
"I used my brain too much, I'm so hungry~"
Three members of the Nakano family: "😐"
The Tachibana sisters who were just watching: "😐"
Itsuki held her stomach, and she looked like she was going to lose her balance, then said weakly to the others.
"Asada-kun won't leave so soon, let's eat first?"
The initially boring atmosphere immediately became livelier.
The others still followed Itsuki's advice and immediately chose fast food restaurants.
Ichika and Yotsuba both ordered regular set meals, Miku had no appetite and only ordered one serving of French fries, while Hina and Rui ordered a set meal for two people to eat together.
Itsuki bought five burgers, four wings, three fries, two chicken nuggets, and a large glass of ice cream to enjoy herself.
Under the horrified gazes of the surrounding tourists, Itsuki held a full plate, sitting in her chair with a happy face.
"Ittadakimasu~"
Unwrap the burger gracefully and politely, then...
Yum Yum Yum.
The other five people looked at her who was eating quickly. The food was placed on their lips, but somehow they didn't have the desire to eat it.
"…Is Itsuki-chan always this bad at eating?" Hina put the chicken pieces down.
Ichika hid her smile and spoke in a serious tone.
"We rarely see this state, because she usually keeps a lot of snacks in her room and on her body to make sure she doesn't get so hungry that she enters 'gluttony' mode… Maybe she accidentally forgot it today, Plus, she said she overused her brain, that's why she eats so much at once."
Ichika her his head in shame: "My sister's inappropriateness scared you. Please forgive me, Tachibana Sensei..."
"No, this isn't something that requires an apology..."
While they were talking, Itsuki had already started unpacking three hamburgers.
It was clear she didn't eat her food in a hurry.
Only Itsuki was left with an appetite, so they placed all their food in front of her, watching her eat while getting straight to the point.
"So Itsuki, what exactly do you know?"
Itsuki lifted her head from the pile of food and saw them confused.
"Yeah, Asada-kun's problem... Cough!"
Seeing that Miku's expression was a little dangerous, and there were two outsiders from the Tachibana family watching beside her, Itsuki corrected her expression, temporarily took the burger out of her mouth, turned her serious gaze to Miku, and asked carefully.
"Miku, among us, you should be the one who cares the most about Asada-kun and Nino's relationship, right?"
Ichika raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and the corners of her mouth curved into an interesting arc.
(Itsuki, haven't you realized my feelings for Shinichi-kun?)
After all, she wasn't like Nino who attacked in front of everyone. Ichika is also unlike Miku who has been a follower behind Shinichi since the beginning.
Ichika touched her lips with her finger, her smile slowly turning cold.
Ichika averted her gaze from Itsuki and looked at Miku who nodded and shook her head.
"...I'm not saying that I don't want Nino to have a good relationship with Shinichi." Miku bit her lower lip, her expression a little complicated, and her voice became softer.
"It's not that Shinichi can't hold hands with other girls, I don't have that kind of strength...
In the past, Shinichi was very worried about touching his hand, and would always keep his distance.
But now....
"Did he suddenly like Nino..."
Miku hid her emotions, and looked at Itsuki.
"Itsuki, if you know anything, please tell me!"
"It doesn't matter even if you don't know... Because I'll go see Asada-kun and ask him directly later."
"Ask him if he has made a choice..."
