章節 411: Let’s Stay Together!

"Sorry, my hands are shaky."

Seeing sweet potato paste on her pants, Rizu quickly took out tissue and helped wipe it.

"It's okay. I'll do it myself."

Seeing her hands continuously moving on his thighs, Ren felt strange and declined her kindness.

"Sorry..."

Seeing that, Rizu had to stop her hands and kept apologizing.

"Did we come at the wrong time?"

Fumino asked hesitantly.

No matter how she looked at the two of them, it was strange.

Behind her, Itsuki also observed this scene and felt so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.

She always felt like she was witnessing something awkward.

"No, you came at the right time."

Seeing both of them arrive, Rizu stood up and walked towards them.

For her own safety, she sent a message to Ren, Fumino, and Itsuki.

Now that they were all here, she immediately felt that the security of her home had greatly increased.

"Ricchan, what's on your feet?"

As she walked in front of her, Fumino pointed to the edge of her skirt and asked gently.

Maybe she misunderstood?

"Udon dough, I accidentally dropped it earlier."

Only then did Rizu realize that her feet seemed to be stained, so she wiped it with tissue.

"I see."

Indeed, she misunderstood.

"Ogata-san, you called us here. Is there anything we can help with?"

Walking into the noodle shop with Fumino and closing the door, Itsuki asked anxiously.

Her initial reaction upon receiving a message from Rizu was that she was in danger, and he rushed over immediately.

But looking at the situation now, it couldn't be considered dangerous.

Fumino looked at Ren, who stood behind Rizu and didn't say anything.

"It's actually okay, but..."

Hearing them ask this question, Rizu repeated the explanation she gave to Ren.

"You were just scared. Fortunately, nothing happened." Itsuki patted her chest and said relieved.

"By the way, Ricchan, you seem to be very afraid of monsters, ghosts, and other scary things."

Turning her face away, Fumino remembered something and joked with a smile.

"I'm a bit scared. Besides, there's no way to scientifically prove the nonexistence of those things." Rizu explained in a low voice, "Like electromagnetic waves, illusions... I know in most cases, they are illusions or rumors, but it's not enough to prove that these things don't exist 100%. Because the likelihood of their existence is still small, it's still worth fearing!"

(Aren't you just scared?) Fumino complained inwardly.

After saying so many words, the main idea was that things that should be feared become fearsome, and there's no clear way to explain it.

"Ogata-san, don't worry too much. If such things exist, the world would have been in chaos for a long time."

Ren echoed, "Monsters and ghosts don't exist."

He was confident that these two things didn't exist because angels and demons were watching over the human world.

How could creatures that could threaten humans randomly appear in the world?

He was the exception.

As for the rest, he couldn't say.

"That makes sense, but until I can prove that the supernatural really doesn't exist, I still admire those things."

Even if they said that, she still felt scared if she had to deal with them.

"This..."

Seeing Itsuki wanting to continue the conversation on this topic, Fumino changed the subject before she could speak, "Ricchan, you called us; do you want us to accompany you?"

"Yes." Rizu nodded in agreement, "If possible, I hope you stay at my house. I can't sleep alone."

When she was alone at home, she didn't even feel safe under the blanket, let alone sleeping.

"Stay here?"

Hearing that, Fumino and Itsuki looked at Ren.

It was okay for them to stay there, but it seemed inappropriate for her to stay.

"Right." Rizu asked, "I have many blankets at home, so I don't need to worry about not having a place to sleep."

"Not that, it's just that Kamikawa-san also lives here..."

Fumino and Itsuki glanced at each other and roughly understood that their thoughts were the same, so she said a little embarrassed.

"I'll just go home."

After thinking for a moment, Ren understood their meaning and took the initiative.

He still knew the truth about the relationship between men and women.

Coincidentally, Gabriel was also waiting for him at home.

"No, Kamikawa-san will disappear." Rizu grabbed the corner of his clothes and refused.

"Why would I disappear?"

Ren was confused, feeling that he didn't understand what she was saying.

Fumino and Itsuki were also a little curious about this question.

"Everyone who moves alone disappears in horror movies, so Kamikawa-san can't go back alone. At least he has to stay here until dawn." Rizu said very seriously.

Ren, Fumino, Itsuki: "..."

Was this conclusion originally drawn from a movie?

"Then if Kamikawa-san doesn't go back, and the two of us go back..."

At this point, Fumino fell silent for a moment.

The original idea was for Ren to go back, and she and Itsuki would stay here to accompany Rizu.

But Ren couldn't go back, so the two of them could only go back. But if that was the problem, Ren had to stay with Rizu.

If a man and a woman stayed alone in one room, there would be a big problem.

"Itsuki-san, do you have any suggestions?"

After thinking hard for a while and unable to find any solution, Fumino pinned her hopes on Itsuki.

After staring at Ren for a long time, Itsuki said in a low voice, "If it's Kamikawa-san, it's okay if we stay together, right? As long as we separate them with blankets, there shouldn't be a problem."

After a moment of silence, Fumino agreed, "So, your idea is for the three of us to stay together?"
