Genius Takamatsu Akari's Kissing Experiment
"Yes, Mom took me to get checked out. The doctor said the artificial respiration was timely and standard, and there were no problems. The doctor even praised Riki," Takamatsu Akari said with a soft smile.
"I see. Just in case, shall I take you to the hospital again tomorrow?" Riki asked.
Takamatsu Akari paused for a moment, then hesitated, "... No, no need, Dad and I can go."
"Oh, I see. Then it's alright."
There was indeed a problem.
Riki looked at Takamatsu Akari's profile. Every time Gao Songdeng's eyes met Riki's, she would unconsciously look away and turn her head away from Riki.
The fact that Gao Song's parents are both fine and very worried about her indicates that the problem isn't a family issue.
If it were a school problem, Aine would probably have known by now, so it's not a school problem.
Is that my problem?
Was there something wrong with my play this time?
Riki looked at Nagasaki Sose, who was sitting to the side putting away her bass and hadn't said much today.
"That's it for today, I'm going home to watch YouTube... no, I mean practice guitar!"
"You just said you watched the video, right?"
"Rikki misheard!"
After a noisy departure from the Cafe, Nagasaki Sose waved goodbye gently to everyone and headed towards the train to go home, but suddenly Riki followed her.
"What's up? Would you like to come to my house?" Nagasaki Sose paused for a moment, then smiled.
What desserts do you have at home? I'd like some milk tea, with lots of milk foam.
"Has your mother come home recently?" Riki asked.
"She's away on a business trip and won't be back for a while, but we keep in touch by phone every day, so she's not lonely at home. Besides, Riki and everyone else are always with her," Nagasaki Sose said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, Mujica is releasing an album soon, and have you seen their new movie? I've heard from my classmates that it's a really good romance film. I wasn't interested before, but I'm thinking of watching it now. Let's go see it together if we have time?"
She's still as talkative as ever.
"Su Shi, you went home with Deng yesterday, right?" Riki asked.
Nagasaki Sose waited for the train, rubbing her fingertips and smiling, "Yes, that's how it is. What's wrong?"
Once on the train, Nagasaki Sose casually remarked, "I chatted with Akari about the band on the way, and that's about it."
"The lamp looks very sad," Riki said.
Nagasaki Sose clenched her fists, pursed her lips, and lowered her eyes, saying, "I see."
As the tram stopped, Nagasaki Sose said to Riki, "My house wasn't cleaned today, so I won't invite you. Let's do it another time."
Want to escape?
Nagasaki Sose got off the train, and Riki followed her.
Nagasaki Sose quickened her pace, and Riki followed suit.
Nagasaki Sose suddenly puffed out her cheeks, grabbed her schoolbag, and started running. The wind ruffled her long brown hair. Seeing Riki also running, she turned back and exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you chasing me?!"
"You're the one who's running away!"
"Where did I run away from? I just wanted to go home!"
"Then stop running!"
"I don't want to!"
Nagasaki Sose said irritably, her long legs under her skirt moving quickly with each step. When she saw her own apartment in front of her, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly swiped her key card to go in. However, just before the door closed, Riki grabbed her hand.
Nagasaki Sose quickly grabbed the doorknob and pulled it back forcefully, her face turning red with rage, and shouted, "This is trespassing! I'm not allowing you in my house today!"
Let me visit!
"What did you say to Deng? I want to find out and then I'll leave!" Riki said, grabbing the door.
"We didn't say anything!"
"You were just saying you were talking about the band on the way here!"
"You're mistaken. I meant we didn't say a word the whole way!"
Nagasaki Sose has always been an expert in writing historical records.
While the two were locked in a stalemate, the security guards from the Celestial Dragons Apartment quickly arrived. After all, it was a high-end apartment, and the security guards were doing their duty. When they saw Riki, they picked up their batons and were about to attack.
I'm so awesome!
"Wait, wait a minute!" Nagasaki Sose quickly said, "He's not a bad person, he's my friend!"
The security guard immediately stopped what he was doing and looked at Riki and Nagasaki Sose with a strange expression.
They are friends.
What kind of morning skit are you two performing here?
I'm just a prop you use for your amusement, part of the game, right?
The security guard's expression became complicated; he felt like a dog on the street that had been kicked for no reason.
Riki shrugged and looked at Nagasaki Sose.
Nagasaki Sose gave him an annoyed look, snorted, and walked straight to the elevator. Riki followed her in.
Nagasaki Sose was clearly feeling guilty, clutching her schoolbag and not even glancing at Riki.
In the quiet atmosphere, the elevator arrived at the high-rise building and stopped with a "ding". Nagasaki Sose silently opened her apartment door and went inside.
"Are there any snacks for the guests?" Riki asked familiarly as she followed him in.
"We have some for the guests, but not for the suspect who trespassed," Nagasaki Sose said irritably.
"So you did say something to Deng, didn't you?" Riki asked, just wanting to know the details.
Nagasaki Sose awkwardly looked away and said calmly, "Let me make you some tea."
Riki watched as Nagasaki Sose skillfully brewed the black tea, placing the steaming, fragrant tea in front of him.
"Didn't they give you sleeping pills or anything like that?" Riki asked cautiously.
"If you're afraid, then don't drink it!" Nagasaki Sose said coldly.
I'm mainly afraid you'll rape me.
"Let's go after we finish drinking. I have to do yoga at home later," Nagasaki Sose said, propping her chin on her hand. "Then I have to go for a night run and be in bed by 11 p. m. I have a lot to do."
Isn't your biggest workout of the day getting out of bed?
Nagasaki Sose looked increasingly guilty.
"I'll leave once you tell me," Riki said.
Otherwise, he would have spent the night here.
No, we can't let Su Shi have any fun while we're staying here.
Let's not go too far.
Nagasaki Sose pursed her lips and lowered her head, saying, "I didn't say anything to Akari... I just asked Akari-chan not to fall for you, because if I did, I might hate Akari-chan."
"But the lamp doesn't mean you any harm, does it?" Riki asked.
"Of course I know! That's why I'm so upset, you idiot!" Nagasaki Sose suddenly stood up, pointed at Riki, and said angrily, "I just don't want you to be taken away by anyone else, not Sakiko-chan, not Rikki- chan, not Mutsuki-chan. Now that Akari likes you, I'll have another competitor!"
"I'm already incredibly nervous with just Sakiko around, let alone with so many other people!"
Nagasaki Sose stomped her foot angrily and said, "You idiot, you keep talking about Sakiko, Sakiko! I know I came after Sakiko, but I also want to get more of your attention. If there are too many people, won't my share be taken by someone else?"
She appears mature, but deep down she's still that little girl from a single-parent family yearning for a sense of belonging.
Therefore, she was absolutely unwilling to give up the light that had saved her.
"... Would you like some black tea first?" Riki suggested.
"Hmph!" Nagasaki Sose sat down again, picked up her black tea, and took a big gulp.
Riki looked at Nagasaki Sose, thought for a moment, and said, "Since Sue thinks that way, then from now on I'll only be nice to Sue, and treat everyone else as strangers."
Nagasaki Sose paused for a moment, then seemed genuinely happy if that were the case.
But when Nagasaki Sose thought about how doing that would hurt Sakiko, Riki, Rikki, and Akari, she immediately pursed her lips and whispered, "No."
She hesitated for a moment before adding, "At least... we should still be good to Sakiko-chan."
"Doesn't that mean you're sharing the care you give to them?"
"...If it's just a little bit, that's fine." Nagasaki Sose hugged her knees and buried her face in them, speaking in a muffled voice.
Do you think I'm a lithography machine, with such precise accuracy?
Unfortunately, the US still holds us back in this area of technology.
Nagasaki Sose realized that Riki had always cared about them, but she was being willful and wanted more attention.
Nagasaki Sose suddenly looked at Riki quietly. Riki was a gentle person, so he would respond to others' affections. Because we are all troublesome girls, we would definitely do something stupid if we refused.
"Riki... you will be with me for the rest of your life, right?" Nagasaki Sose suddenly said.
"Yes, of course," Riki replied.
Nagasaki Sose closed her eyes, leaned against Riki's chest, and pouted, "Alright, I'll agree then."
"Promise what?" Riki was stunned.
Nagasaki Sose glared at him, annoyed. "Have you forgotten what you said yourself? You were talking about a harem."
She looked at Riki and said, "I agree."
Is there a system in place to settle accounts?
[Achievement: Nagasaki Sose's Recognition]
Sakiko agrees with the progress (2/3).
As long as the denominator remains the same, Sakiko will soon be defeated by him!
Next up is you, Shiina Riki!
However, before that, the light needs to be turned back from being off to being on again.
But how do we do it?
"Su Shi, let me ask you something that only the locals know..." Riki suddenly asked Nagasaki Sose.
Chapter 165 The Kissing Experiment of Genius Takamatsu Akari
Nagasaki Sose escorted Riki to the elevator.
"Why do you have such a sour face?" Riki Nagasaki Sose, who stood with his hands behind his back and a disgruntled expression.
Didn't we reconcile?
Nagasaki Sose, dressed in a casual silk dress with her glistening toes peeking out from under her slippers, looked at Riki with a hint of annoyance and said, "I'm just a little regretful now. I should have known better than to agree to your harem."
This is what Nagasaki Sose's character and moral qualities are like.
It's always been bad.
"Lu Xun was right, indeed only women and Rokko are difficult to raise; they can always go back on their promises..." Riki sighed.
"You'd better get Rikki- chan to agree before I change my mind, otherwise I'll have to back out," Nagasaki Sose muttered. She glanced at Riki as he suddenly leaned closer to her, her thin, gossamer-like dress practically weightless, her full breasts almost pressed against Riki's arm.
"You were watching me at the pool yesterday, weren't you?" Nagasaki Sose said.
"Of course we'll watch it, otherwise what if you all drown like the lamp?"
"You're looking at her breasts, aren't you?"
"When a person sinks to the bottom of the water, the air in their chest cavity will make them float."
"I also saw Rikki- chan's legs; the school's one-piece swimsuit really accentuates Rikki- chan's figure."
