章 351: The World Only Nino Doesn’t Know
Itsuki felt an unexplainable déjà vu as she observed Ichika's reaction. Wasn't this the same reaction as before?
Could it be that she also knew that Naoki was Ren?
"Ichika, come here and help."
Nino looked at the bewildered Ichika standing there.
"Okay."
As Ichika walked over, she controlled her expression, pretending to be the first to meet Naoki.
But upon getting closer, she accidentally met Itsuki's slightly strange gaze.
After a brief exchange of glances, Ichika understood the situation.
After confirming with her eyes, she knew that Naoki was indeed Ren.
With an uneaten apple still in her hand, Ichika could only take one bag from Ren.
During the handover, as she turned her back to Nino who remained unaware, Ichika smiled at Ren.
Nino didn't witness this scene, but Itsuki saw it clearly.
"Is this the Kamikawa Naoki you told us about before?"
After taking the bag, Ichika naturally started talking to Nino.
"Yes." Nino nodded and looked towards the living room. "Where are Miku and Yotsuba? Why can't I see both of them?"
"Yotsuba went to the bathroom, and Miku had some business and returned to her room." Ichika explained casually.
As she finished speaking, Yotsuba emerged from the bathroom. Seeing the excitement at the door, she ran over.
"What are you doing... Hah, Kamikawa... Naoki-san?"
As Yotsuba approached, she saw Ren without glasses, so she unintentionally screamed. But when she saw Nino next to him, she quickly changed her tone.
Seeing Yotsuba's reaction like this, Ichika and Itsuki immediately understood that Yotsuba, like both of them, knew everything.
"Do you recognize me?" Ren intentionally pretended not to know and proactively asked.
"We know you. Ichika and I met you before when you escorted Nino home." Yotsuba explained awkwardly.
She almost shouted his real name now, but fortunately, she stopped in time.
"Forgive me, I saw it accidentally." Ichika cooperated well.
Ren said with a suddenly realizing tone, "I see."
Nino knew this, besides Yotsuba had already told her, so she wasn't surprised if Yotsuba could recognize Naoki.
While helping carry things to the kitchen, Yotsuba received various hints from Ichika and Itsuki.
Initially, she thought it was because their eyes were uncomfortable, but after seeing them continually signaling her, she finally understood their meaning.
Apparently, everything was the same.
Wait, does it mean that Nino is the only one who still doesn't know Naoki's identity now?
Thinking about this, Yotsuba didn't know how to face Nino.
For some reason, she always felt sorry for Nino.
After putting his things down, Ren was led to the sofa by Nino and sat down.
His sitting position was where he sat during the break in the lessons.
Then, Ren introduced himself to them seriously, "Hello, I'm Kamikawa Naoki. Please give me your advice."
The purpose of his words was to remind them that he is Naoki now, not Ren.
"Hello, my name is Nakano Ichika..."
Seeing that he had finished introducing himself, Ichika and Yotsuba went through the process and introduced themselves.
Nino acted as a mediator, adding some information to help them get to know each other and prevent awkwardness.
The starting point was good, but in the eyes of Ichika and the others, Nino's behavior was truly amusing.
Therefore, to prevent Nino from seeing any shortcomings, they had no choice but to hold back laughter and try their best to appear as if they were listening attentively.
"Has Miku not come down yet?"
After introducing Ichika and the three of them, Nino lifted her head and looked up.
Now, only Miku remained to be introduced.
"Let me call Miku. Fortunately, I have no business."
After saying that, Yotsuba stood up and ran upstairs.
"I'll go too, it's not good if Yotsuba gets lost." Ichika made a casual excuse and followed her upstairs.
"There is strength in numbers, so let me go and help."
Seeing the three of them fleeing, Itsuki panicked immediately, just like Ichika, she made a random excuse and hurriedly followed.
Seeing the three of them running away in the blink of an eye, Nino felt a bit helpless, but she could understand.
After all, if a strange man suddenly appeared in the family, it would be embarrassing, and it was reasonable to choose to leave.
However, the three of them left at the right time, leaving space for them and Naoki to talk a little among themselves.
On the other hand, after the three of them went upstairs, they had no intention of calling Miku; instead, they hid in a corner of the second-floor corridor and began communicating in hushed voices.
This was a blind spot on the first floor. You couldn't see here from below, so you could communicate quietly.
"Ichika, the reason you gave is too off, you're worried Yotsuba will get lost." Once they gathered, Itsuki complained.
"It doesn't matter, Nino doesn't care about this; her mind must be focused on Kamikawa-san." Ichika waved her hand nonchalantly.
"That's true." Itsuki nodded in agreement.
Ichika said confidently, "So, there's no need to look for a good reason."
This time, Yotsuba interrupted their complaints about Nino and chose to go straight to the heart of the matter, "Well, how did you know that Kamikawa Naoki is actually Kamikawa Ren-san?"
"To be honest, I just found out..." Itsuki explained first.
At the same time, as they shared how they discovered the truth, Miku's door opened calmly.
(What are they doing?)
Miku stretched her head and saw three people hiding in the corner, doing something unknown.
After thinking about it, she came out of the room and walked very hesitantly.
"I really didn't expect Kamikawa-san to be Kamikawa Naoki. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it."
As Miku approached, she heard Itsuki's sigh.
(Kamikawa-san is Kamikawa Naoki? What does that mean?)
