บท 140: Happy birthday, Gabriel!
(Ready?)
After reading Vigne's message, Ren put down his cellphone and turned to Gabriel who had run into the room.
Since he was ready, he just had to take Gabriel there.
"Gabriel, follow me."
"Where to?"
Gabriel turned around and asked in confusion.
"Go to my house."
At this point, there is no need to hide too much.
"Why should I go to your house? Can I not go?"
As soon as she got home, she didn't want to go out again, even to Ren's house next door.
"Can't."
Ren said very seriously.
If Gabriel doesn't show up, what's the point of this birthday party?
"Bother."
After hearing Ren's serious answer, Gabriel said helplessly and started to put on her shoes.
She had expressed her wishes very clearly, and she felt she still needed to go and have a look.
What if it's something important?
"Let's go."
After putting on her shoes, Gabriel approached Ren who was standing in front of the door.
"Um."
In response, Ren left Gabriel's room and headed for the door of his house.
Gabriel followed closely behind, observing his movements quietly.
This was her first time going to Ren's house.
Because Ren usually came to her house to play, so she didn't bother going there.
Gabriel is still very curious about Ren's house.
After all, this was her first time entering a boy's room.
Under Gabriel's gaze, Ren took out the key and opened the door.
As soon as he opened the door, as an Esper, he could clearly feel some familiar scent hiding in the corner of the room, waiting for them to enter.
Fortunately, no one held such a birthday party for him, otherwise he would have realized something was wrong at the first moment, and the surprise would have failed.
"Please come in."
After saying this, Ren entered the house and led Gabriel into Vigne's ambush range.
"It's a bit dark."
After Gabriel entered, she couldn't help but sigh.
Because the curtains were closed, the room seemed very dark at the moment, making it difficult for her to see the specific layout.
"I turned on the light."
After learning that Ren has no intention of turning on the lights, Gabriel plans to complete this task for him.
Because they are in the same apartment, the overall design of the rooms is similar. Just by looking at the position of the light switch in her room, she could easily find the switch in Ren's house.
But as soon as she found the switch, before she could turn it on, all the lights in the room suddenly turned on.
Accompanied by two soft "bang" sounds, as well as colorful fireworks falling in the sky.
"Gab, happy birthday!"
Vigne and Raphiel each held a gun in their hands, jumped out from the side, and said to her with a smile.
"Eh?"
For a moment, Gabriel was stunned on the spot, completely unable to understand what was happening.
"Happy birthday, Tenma-san!"
After the lights were turned on, Fumino and the other people who were originally hiding in the corner also appeared in front of her.
"Is today my birthday?"
After some thought, Gabriel finally understood the current situation.
"Don't you know?"
Vigne didn't expect Gabriel to react like this.
She thought Gabriel had known about it all along.
"I was so busy that I accidentally forgot," Gabriel scratched her head in embarrassment.
In fact, she had become too addicted to playing games during this period and had long forgotten her birthday.
"Thank you very much for your hard work, Gab," Vigne said earnestly.
"It's nothing, I'm quite relaxed."
Gabriel's eyes were a little uncertain, and she didn't dare to look directly at Vigne's eyes.
It could be said that she didn't work hard at all during this period, she basically left everything to Ren, she was only responsible for playing the game.
And now being praised so much in front of so many people made her little conscience feel a little guilty.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
Vigne noticed that Gabriel didn't seem to want to discuss this topic any further, so she changed the topic.
"We'd better go there and eat quickly, otherwise it won't taste good if it gets cold."
"Um."
After answering softly, Gabriel followed them towards the dining table.
At this time, Gabriel had time to look into Ren's room.
(Obviously it's a boy's room, why is it cleaner than mine?) Gabriel sighed in her heart without realizing it.
With Ren's help, the room couldn't be said to be very clean, but at least it was free of clutter.
But compared to Ren's room, it seemed dirty.
Even if she has some decorative items in her room.
As soon as she walked to the dining table, Gabriel saw a table full of plates, a birthday cake placed aside, and Ren standing beside the table.
Since today was her birthday, they should give her a birthday gift, right?
After seeing Ren, Gabriel suddenly remembered last night when he asked her what she wanted.
She seemed to know why Ren asked her that question.
In other words, Ren will give her a birthday gift.
When she thought about this, Gabriel began to look forward to it.
"Gab, don't stand up, sit down quickly."
Seeing Gabriel standing there in a daze, Vigne urged her in a low voice.
She is the protagonist today, if she doesn't sit down first, it will be difficult for them to sit down first.
"Oh good."
After hearing the reminder, Gabriel came back to her senses and wanted to sit next to Ren out of habit.
A total of eight chairs were placed next to the table, but the arrangement was not four chairs on one side, but three chairs on one side, four chairs on one side, and finally placed on a narrow edge.
Ren was standing in the middle of the three chairs, so Gabriel would sit in the chair next to him.
"Gabriel, you are the birthday girl today, so you should sit in the main seat."
Before Gabriel could sit down, Raphiel stopped her and took her to the main seat, which was the seat on the narrow side.
"…"
Gabriel didn't want to sit in this position at all, but Raphiel said so, so she had no choice but to sit like this.
When Gabriel sat in the main seat, the others also sat down one after another.
"I'll just sit here, Kamikawa-san, you don't mind, right?"
After "shooing" Gabriel away, Raphiel sat next to Ren.
"Do not think about it."
Ren raised his head and looked at Gabriel across from Raphiel, and said indifferently.
He didn't understand this strange etiquette very well, so he chose to obey Raphiel, who seemed to know a lot about it.
"Then I'll just sit here."
As soon as he finished talking to Raphiel, Itsuki sat down on the other side of Ren.
"…"
Looking at Ren who was sandwiched between Raphiel and Itsuki, Gabriel felt a little subtle.
Even though today was her birthday, wasn't this Ren's house?
Logically speaking, she should be able to sit in this main seat, right?
Why is she sitting there?
