"I was just chatting with Asada-san about the future of Forest School, and came back after chatting. Nothing strange happened! We are both innocent!"
Under everyone's gazes, Yotsuba tried her best to explain, for fear that they wouldn't believe what she was saying.
After explaining, she looked around, and found that they showed no hesitation, then went off to do their own thing, and she was relieved.
Looking back at Ichika's smiling expression.
"Relax, even if you really have a late night date with Shinichi-kun, no one will blame you~"
She touched Yotsuba's head, and said with a smile, "We are sisters, and such a trivial thing won't affect our relationship."
"Yeah, I'm just afraid you guys misunderstood! After all, everyone has a very good relationship with Asada-san, and I don't want to create a gap because of this."
Ichika looked away.
"Alright, quickly prepare the toilet equipment, there are still many things to be busy with today."
"Oh! I will do a great job today!" Yotsuba answered excitedly, Ichika saw her leave from her bed.
After finding the pajamas and underwear she had taken off at the end of the bed, Ichika got up from the bed and smoothed her messy hair.
Nino walked to her side, and handed over the equipment, she smiled and took it, but heard a very low volume of words.
"…I don't care what you think, but please endure a bit!"
Ichika's smile froze, meeting Nino's dignified gaze.
She stroked her hair and sighed helplessly.
"...I know, I just fell asleep."
"That's good."
Nino didn't say much, and ran to Yotsuba who only brought a towel and a toothbrush.
Ichika stared at her back in thought, but at this moment, Miku's voice came from behind.
"Ichika."
"What is it?" Ichika turned her head and smiled.
Miku looked at her worriedly.
"There seems to be something wrong with you... Are you okay?"
Confused for a moment, Ichika subconsciously touched the corner of her lips, her eyes wandered elsewhere, then stabilized her expression.
"Well, maybe I'm too tired, after all, I was very busy yesterday."
Miku nodded and looked down at her calves.
"Me too, exercised too much... It still hurts a bit."
Ichika said with a smile.
"Then let Onee-san give you a massage! Just press it, and the pain will go away~"
"It's something to persuade the children. Ichika really..." Miku sighed helplessly.
Ichika came out of the cabin with everyone, she let go of Miku's arm and stepped back.
She pulled out her phone, saw herself reflected on the screen.
"Obviously nothing wrong..."
Why, will they see it...
The acting skills she learned were definitely not something easy to look at...
Subconsciously, she squeezed the phone tightly.
"Ichika, what are you doing? Quickly follow~"
Yotsuba's voice sounded up ahead.
Ichika suppressed her true emotions that were accidentally revealed, put on a casual smile to cover them up, and walked over.

As soon as the quintuplets walked away, they met Shinichi who came out of the men's room and seemed to have finished taking a shower.
Nino instantly hid behind Itsuki, showing only eyes.
"What are you doing, Nino? Why are you hiding behind me?" Itsuki was confused.
"I don't want to be seen without makeup, and I haven't combed my hair just now, quickly help me block the man's view!" After explaining briefly, Nino worriedly.
"But on Forest School days..."
"At that time, I will get ready in the room before heading out. I just forgot about it today! Anyway, don't let that person see me now, or else he'll use this to laugh at me next time!"
"I don't think Asada-kun is that kind of person..."
Remembering what happened last night, Nino blushed and bared her teeth.
"If I was laughed at by him, you wouldn't say that!"
"Uh… Okay." This sentence was so convincing that Itsuki couldn't refute it.
Not only Itsuki, the other quintuplets also surrounded Nino, blocking Shinichi's view.
So, what Shinichi saw was a scene of four chickens guarding a chick, watching it vigilantly.
"What are you doing now..."
Shinichi decided to pretend he didn't see her.
Thanks to them, he had come to the conclusion that girls would have some trouble with their heads for a period of time when they woke up.
He turned around without looking at anything, and continued walking forward.
At this time, the cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.
Caller Number: Furuhashi Fumino.
(Furuhashi? Why did she call so early...)
Shinichi walked towards the cabin while answering the phone.
"Hello, Furuhashi?"
The sound was enough to enter the women's restroom. Almost at the same time, the quintuplets stopped their movements.
The atmosphere became silent, the five of them looked at each other, then suddenly put down the toilet equipment in their hands, hid in the female toilet door, strained their ears, and listened to the sound outside.
