However.
Oreki pulled up the system's requirement.
[Mission Requirement: Give a birthday gift to your daughter born on October 24.]
Although this mission had no reward, Oreki did not want any complications because of it, so naturally, he did it.
After washing up, the two daughters came over to the table.
They looked only five or six years old, still very young.
But perhaps because they were children, they were also quite adorable.
"Come to think of it, have the two of you prepared birthday presents?" Oreki suddenly asked.
"Huh? Presents? Daddy, I want one!"
"I want the toy Auntie Kushida gave us." Perhaps because they were still children, they immediately became excited. "That remote-control toy that flies off when you spin it."
The toy they were talking about had been given to them by Kikyou Kushida.
In other words, just as always, Kushida was liked by both adults and children.
"But that will have to wait until next year!" Attorney Horikita said at that moment. "It's already September. Both of your birthdays are in June."
"So we'll prepare them next year."
"Ehh!" The two children both looked very unhappy.
However, Oreki realized that he had caught a very important detail.

Attorney Horikita Had Her Guard Up Too?
Oreki felt that the mission was a little excessive.
Still, if it was not Horikita's child, then
