Chapter 344

Not far behind the two, Seika's eyes were bloodshot, and her fists were clenched so tightly they were cracking.

Too close, too close! Ishikawa, where are you putting your hands? Put your hands down, you stinky bug! And stop looking at Nijika with that creepy, drooling gaze!

As Seika called out in her heart, she completely ignored Nijika's charming gaze as she looked at Ishikawa Hayato.

She just wanted to rush up and pull the two apart, but she was afraid that Nijika would get angry and they would run away from her, and then she wouldn't know what would happen to her.

A little behind Seika, Xiang didn't know why Seika had been walking with them, but seeing Seika gradually clenching his fists and tensing up, he had a guess in his mind.

This time, during her night raid, she tugged at Ishikawa Jinpei's clothes and asked her father, "Dad, did my sister find out about the other woman?"

Ishikawa Jinpei glanced at Ishikawa Shizuka before looking in that direction.

He was of a higher level and could see the difference; he could see an ominous aura surrounding the blonde woman.

That was probably murderous intent.

"This is a bit dangerous..."

Worried that something might have happened here, he wanted his family to go to a safe place, but then he remembered that Ishikawa Hayato was still ahead, and seeing that Seika seemed to be always behind Ishikawa Hayato, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

While Hibiki and Ishikawa Shizuka were speculating whether the other had witnessed their husband's infidelity.

Ishikawa Jinpei looked ahead, his eyes glancing at Ishikawa Hayato on one side and Seika on the other.

Ishikawa Hayato led Nijika to look at the direction sign, and Seika also stopped and hid to the side.

As Ishikawa Hayato and Nijika took another step, Seika followed, taking a step at exactly the same time as Ishikawa Hayato.

Upon realizing this, Ishikawa Jinpei suddenly went blank.

What's going on?

He quickly shared the information he had just observed with his wife and daughter.

But neither of them believed it.

Hibiki scoffed, "How could I possibly follow my brother? Besides, if I were deliberately following him, he would have already noticed."

Ishikawa Shizuka thought about it and agreed that it was correct.

"Yes, even if Falcon is having affairs again, he must have noticed this kind of stalking. Why doesn't he shake him off or stop and confront him?"

They were all certain that Ishikawa Hayato would eventually discover that someone was following him.

But Ishikawa Jinpei was absolutely certain of his observations.

"Don't wonder why, just take a good look."

Neither of them believed it, but seeing Ishikawa Jinpei was, they still paid more attention to Seika and Ishikawa Hayato.

Ishikawa Hayato put his arm around Nijika and led her to the railing to look at the special hot spring. Seika stopped, and after chatting and laughing for a while, they set off again, with Seika continuing to follow.

Passing through the three hot springs of the Kama Jigoku, her behavior remained the same as before, and despite the many routes, she continued to follow Ishikawa Hayato and Nijika without fail.

Even though the people in front of her had changed, she still didn't change the distance she was following.

And seeing Ishikawa Hayato and Nijika's intimate behavior would only make her angrier.

As they observed more closely, cold sweat gradually trickled down the foreheads of both mother and daughter.

The person caught cheating was actually your own son/brother?!

"What... what should we do?" Hibiki panicked immediately.

"Ah... ah..."

Ishikawa Shizuka stood there dumbfounded for a long time, unable to speak. Finally, worried about Ishikawa Hayato's safety, she asked anxiously, "Why don't we go and ask what's going on? Even if Hayato cheated on her, I hope he can calm down."

"Etc."

By this time, Ishikawa Jinpei had calmed down. He looked seriously at the mother and daughter and said, "First, we need to determine if Hayabusa knows about this. What if he does know..."

"Was he deliberately keeping a mistress hanging around him while he was on a date with Nijika?!"

Hibiki immediately cried out in disbelief.

Ishikawa Shizuka's eyes were already darting around; clearly, her brain couldn't keep up with their pace.

Ishikawa Jinpei slapped his forehead helplessly, but suddenly realized that he couldn't rule out this possibility.

After thinking about it, he decided to stop following him and simply sent a message to Ishikawa Hayato on his phone.

"Did you even notice us, you little brat?"

A few seconds passed.

Ishikawa Hayato: "That woman behind me is a bit of a problem. Could you guys talk to her? (mischievous grin)"

If Ishikawa Hayato hadn't added a mischievous grin emoji after his words, Ishikawa Jinpei might have thought it was real, but after adding it, he just felt...

Damn it, there's a trap.

He couldn't decide whether to step into the trap, so he showed his phone to the mother and daughter.

Both of them were absolutely certain.

There's a trap!

After considering it together, the three decided not to drill!

The three people at the back could see the interactions between the three groups in front most clearly. Although some parts were obscured by the crowd and the environment, they were able to see some of the obvious interactions between the groups.

In particular, Ishikawa Jinpei was sending messages on his phone right in front of his wife and daughters.

After sending the message, he looked at Ishikawa Hayato in front of him. Ishikawa Hayato quickly took out his phone to reply and then waved to his family, but none of his family noticed.

And the bewildered expressions on Ishikawa Jinpei's face as he and his wife and daughters looked at each other after receiving the news.

They saw everything.

And I felt a bit chilly.

Ikuyo chuckled awkwardly, not daring to look away from Ishikawa Hayato, and said to the two of them, "Look... it seems Hayato-kun knew everything that happened afterward."

"Yes, very completely. He can probably hear everything we say, and he could even use some means to set traps for us."

Like Ikuyo, Ryo also realized at this moment that he was being targeted by a top predator, and dared not move an inch.

Hitori tightly hugged her chest with both hands, not daring to move.

Ding-dong.

The sudden sound made the three frozen figures jump.

Liang took out her phone; there was a message on Line.

Ishikawa Hayato: "Yes, I can hear you."

The two people next to him had just seen the message when Liang suddenly pressed the screen-off button on his phone and turned around without hesitation.

"Let's go back to the hotel and play PS4."

She's a scumbag, not an idiot. Being beaten by Nijika was just one punch, but being messed with by Ishikawa Hayato might really lead to a three-way negotiation. She doesn't want to step into that kind of hell.

That's not the kind of scenery you can easily appreciate, like the Beppu Hell beneath your feet.

"Yes." Hitori turned around impatiently, filled with endless anticipation for returning to the hotel.

"Yeah... that's true, that's the only way."

Ikuyo turned away with a hint of reluctance.

But then, Liang's phone beeped with a message notification.

When Ishikawa Hayato turned around, Seika quickly hid to the side, but she didn't just hide; after two seconds, she secretly peeked outside.

She noticed that Ishikawa Hayato wasn't looking in her direction, but rather waving to someone behind him.

Later?!

Seika's eyes widened. Could it be the other members of their band?!

Doesn't that mean she's completely exposed?

From behind, all her movements were clearly visible, as if she were under a spotlight.

Nijika is going to scold me.

However, Seika still looked back with a glimmer of hope, but when she looked in the direction where Ishikawa Hayato had greeted them, she didn't see the three of them.

Instead, they saw three other people they had met once before.

That was the family that planned to follow the older brother.

A question mark appeared above Seika's head, but seeing that the three people were not looking at Ishikawa Hayato, she was even more puzzled.

From that point on, she also began to pay attention to the whereabouts of those three people.

Ahead, after sending a message while barely suppressing a laugh Ishikawa Hayato glanced to his side, where Nijika was watching him with extreme vigilance.

Instead of explaining, Ishikawa Hayato asked with a cunning smile that resembled that of a fox.

"Nijika, do you think we should teach Seika?"

Nijika's expression suddenly turned cold.

What does Hayato-kun mean?

Ishikawa Hayato, however, continued speaking without any concern.

"Actually, behind us, there's not only Seika, but also my family, Liang and the others."

Nijika was startled and looked back again, but because those people were quite far away, and she wasn't as familiar with them as Seika was, she didn't notice them.

She then looked at Ishikawa Hayato, not suspecting that Ishikawa Hayato was lying, but instead probing him.

"What are your thoughts, Hayato-kun?"

"Oh dear, stalking is really bad. Someone needs to give them a good talking-to, and then we can get to know them better..."

Such a lesson?

Seeing Ishikawa Hayato's sunny yet sinister smile, Nijika also smiled easily.

"They need to be taught a lesson."

"We've seen enough of the scenery, let's go see a play next."

As Ishikawa Hayato spoke, he glanced back at Seika and, seeing that she wasn't paying attention, grabbed Nijika and started running.

Nijika felt that he had corrupted her. She shouldn't be happy, but she thought it might be very interesting later, and she couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't go too far."

"I'll intervene if things go too far, but they're all trustworthy people, so there's nothing to worry about."

Nijika stared intently at Ishikawa Hayato as he spoke, deep in thought.

What was supposed to be an imperfect date due to an accident suddenly becomes interesting because of Ishikawa Hayato's actions.

Running through the bustling and unique hot spring streets, passing various peculiar hot springs and overcoming all sorts of tourists, she happily ran away from Seika.

Nijika couldn't help but realize.

Sure enough, from the very first performance where they turned the tide in a desperate situation, she grew fond of this eccentric boy who was a year younger than her, always laughing and joking, and always turning unhappiness into joy.

I'm so late in realizing this; I'm definitely the dumbest person around.

237. Trilateral Talks

It's time for an eye for an eye.

Ishikawa Hayato was secretly pleased and pulled Nijika along at a jog. When he saw the coffee shop not far ahead, he turned to Nijika and gave her a knowing smile.

Nijika smiled helplessly at him, but without hesitation, she followed closely in his footsteps.

When they reached the coffee shop, Ishikawa Hayato stopped and looked around.

Very well, Seika and his family haven't arrived yet. He glanced at Nijika again, and Nijika followed him, looking around curiously. After noticing his gaze, she tilted her head and showed a puzzled expression.
