Chapter 344

Kita Ikuyo and Ichiji Nijika both wore wry smiles.

At their age, the most they've ever used to buy Drinks is a 500 yen coin.

At that moment, they gained a deeper understanding of the wealth gap between the two sides.

"..."

After letting out a small sigh, he innocently looked away.

There's no other way; he rarely uses cash, and when buying large items, he always uses credit cards. Compared to banknotes, he carries relatively few coins in his wallet.

After buying the Drinks, the group continued their journey.

"I wonder what Gotoh-san's home is like?"

"Oh~ she seemed to have said something like before that the cardboard box was narrow and made her feel at home and safe."

"Huh? A house that looks like a cardboard box...?"

"Haha~! Bocchi-chan- chan is so funny! I can't wait~"

"I'm really looking forward to it!"

Kita Ikuyo nodded with a natural smile, "I brought snacks and a movie recommendation today!"

Unlike the two chattering friends, Sakurakoji Talent took care of Kanau, who was only looking at the surrounding scenery, and did not join the conversation.

Soon, the group approached their destination.

"We're here! It's over here!"

Looking at the address on her phone, Kita Ikuyo gave her remarks.

The four stopped and looked at the two-story detached house with a pitched roof by the roadside.

What's most eye-catching here isn't its own presence, but the prominent white banner on the outside of its second floor.

Written in jet-black ink: Welcome, Starry Traveler (a single line, often used in hotels), offering you a healing time.

"..."

"Bocchi, that's fun!"

Looking at the bizarre banner, Kanau managed a smile.

Chapter 366 Will my older brother and sister get married?

"Eh... is this... is this the place?"

Ichiji Nijika asked uncertainly, "After all, it says 'STARRY'..."

"Is Gotoh-san's house a hotel?"

Kita Ikuyo speculated.

"I'm not really sure, but this looks like a regular detached house."

"That's also what they're saying, 'group?? Lu Yi 7 Ying Er's dad?'"

"Anyway~!"

Ichiji Nijika walked to the doorbell and rang the notification sound for the Gotoh family residence.

"Bocchi-chan ~ We're here~"

Hello~

In the entryway, Gotou Hitori, who had been waiting there, trembled slightly, his usual pink tracksuit-clad figure flashing before he exclaimed urgently, "Open the door now!"

"..."

X N.

The door opened, and seeing her attire, the group froze again.

She was wearing a triangular red Santa hat, a pair of five-pointed star sunglasses, and a white banner that read "One-Day Patrol Chief" hanging diagonally across her body.

"Bang!"

The welcome confetti she was holding exploded.

"Yay, yay!"

Welcome!

"..."

X N.

"Bocchi-chan looks so happy."

Ichiji Nijika spoke calmly.

Hi, hi.

Gotou Hitori leaned back.

Oh no! This is terrible! The conversation has gone awkward!

"I feel so happy!"

Kita Ikuyo smiled broadly to save face, then looked at the others and said, "I know, Gotoh-san is actually really looking forward to today!"

"That's true."

*Thud! Gotou Hitori's body swung to the other side again.

Kita- kun's gentleness pierced my heart, leaving me speechless!

"Please, please come in... um?"

She turned to look at the cat that was clutching her sleeve.

"Can this be launched again?"

Kanau asked, pointing to the fireworks in her hand.

"I think that's impossible... No, but there are new ones! Le, is Rakuna interested in this?"

She walked to the cabinet next to her, took out an unused one, and handed it to her.

"Ah, the method of use is to rotate this bottom part..."

"Bang!"

Before she could finish speaking, she was hit in the face by Kanau's salute.

"..."

"Interesting!"

"Is that so...?"

Welcome?

"Um, this is my home..."

"Um?"

She turned away dejectedly, hunching over as she went back inside. "Never mind, everyone come in."

Hi~

"Excuse me!"

"I'm sorry to bother you."

Upon reaching the living room, Sakurakoji Talent handed the bag she was carrying to Gotou Hitori: "Bocchi-chan, this is a souvenir. Enjoy it with your family."

"Ah, okay, thank you!"

She took the bag with curiosity, turned her back and secretly opened it, as if she could see golden light shining from inside.

Wow! Something fashionable is gushing out of the bag that Mr. Talent brought!

And it smells so good!

"Um, this... could it be...?"

"The desserts I made myself."

This is exactly what he finished working on last night.

As expected! Gotou Hitori's body trembled! He couldn't help but swallow.

"I'll definitely enjoy it!"

She knelt down on both knees and performed a kneeling bow.

"..."

"There are also movies!"

Kita Ikuyo also brought out her own stock.

Kanau tugged at his clothes. "Can we eat now?"

"Okay, but you have to eat the filling inside."

He held up the bag of snacks in his other hand.

"Mr. Talent is so thoughtful!"

Ichiji Nijika chuckled.

"Truly Talent-senpai!"

"This 200 million scattered martial arts chess pieces isn't such a big deal..."

The group went up to the second floor and arrived at the door of Gotou Hitori's room.

As she pulled the handle, the door swung open, and a vibrant, dark aura swept out...

The room, devoid of windows, was surrounded by cabinets, walls, and doors. In the pitch-black room, a nightclub-style ambient light fixture was rotating, emitting colorful spots of light.

Further inside, there were several more floating balloons.

"..."

X N.

Faced with this absolutely awful taste, Sakurakoji Talent covered his mouth and nose, his eyes twitching, feeling a bit nauseous.

He declared that this was the worst girls' room he had ever seen!

"I'll go get some Drinks. Please help yourselves..."

Seeing the atmosphere fall silent again, Gotou Hitori, whose heart sank to the bottom, floated away like Ghost and left the scene on his own.

"Thanks!"

Ichiji Nijika bid her farewell.

"Hey~ But seriously, these decorations are really over the top!"

"But I didn't see the guitar or Effects Pedal."

"Yes."

"I thought it would be a more rock-and-roll room..."

Upon seeing the pile of table salt in the corner of the room, Kita Ikuyo's voice faltered.

Moving the gaze upwards, one discovers a Sealing Talisman on the top wall.

"Is this... rock and roll?"

"Wow! That's really rock and roll!"

Ichiji Nijika chuckled awkwardly and nodded quickly.

"What other rock and roll spots are there... woohoo~!"

"Aaaaaah!!"

The already dimly lit room suddenly became pitch black, startling the two people who screamed in terror.

"Rakuna, turn on the switch for that ball."
