Itsuki Nakano Is Terrifyingly Strong
The two arrived at the Nakano Nino had mentioned, and sure enough, there were quite a few other customers there.
This restaurant has a very unique decor, with fountains and beautiful colored lights, so it's normal for people to come here to take pictures.
"We're too late," Nakano Nino sighed. "Looks like we'll have to wait."
Fushimi Makoto looked around and pointed to a spot. "There are fewer people over there, should we go there first?"
"Okay." Nakano Nino did not refuse.
Fushimi Makoto was about to go over when he found that she hadn't moved.
Why aren't you leaving?
"Now it's just the two of us," Nakano Nino said with a smile.
Fushimi Makoto taken aback for a moment, then smiled and extended his hand, "Let's go."
She took the initiative and linked her arm with Fushimi Makoto's.
That amazingly soft touch spread over me.
"This is what I call alone time," she said, blushing.
Are you planning to eat alone again?
Fushimi Makoto understood why she hadn't ended up with Ichika.
But Fushimi Makoto was unaware that on the other side of the hotel, Ichika and Nino were happily taking pictures.

"It's done taking pictures, come and take a look."
Fushimi Makoto waved to Nakano Nino, who was standing under the colored lights, and handed her his phone.
He didn't bother to check the photos, after all, he was a professional in this area.
Capturing Nakano Nino's beauty with a camera was no challenge for him.
"Let me see... You definitely took better pictures. It was the right decision to call you over from Dad's."
Nakano Nino held her phone with a delighted expression, giving it a satisfied review.
Fushimi Makoto stared at her adorable smiling face for a while, then asked curiously, "By the way, if you wanted to take a picture as a souvenir, why did you use my phone to take it?"
He had wanted to ask this question before.
Just as the two found their spot and angle, the girl reached out to him and asked for his camera.
He didn't want to spoil the girl's enjoyment of taking photos, so he didn't ask.
"Makoto, how could you ask such a stupid question?" Nakano Nino looked on incredulously.
Fushimi Makoto paused for a moment, then chuckled, "I see, I see, I didn't expect that... You're worried about taking photos with your own phone, and if Ichika catches you, she'll say you're hoarding the food, right?"
"You know that much." Nakano Nino snorted a few times, seemingly dissatisfied. "That girl, as the eldest daughter, is clearly the one who likes to eat alone the most, and also the one who eats alone the most."
Fushimi Makoto sensed the girl's resentment and suggested, "Why don't we play with you to your heart's content while no one bothers us?"
"Then it's settled!" Nakano Nino exclaimed, extending her finger in delight.
Fushimi Makoto understood and made a pinky promise with her.
But in the instant she turned away, pretending to admire the photo, Fushimi Makoto didn't see a relaxed expression on her face.
It's like the guilty look you get when a secret is almost exposed.
Fushimi Makoto took a few more photos for her. Since there were still quite a few people in the area with the best photos, the two of them simply waited in line at the back, chatting as they went.
At that moment, two men chatting not far to Fushimi Makoto's left caught his attention.
It wasn't that he knew these two people, but rather that their conversation was rather sensational.
One of them seemed a bit agitated, and his voice became uncontrollable. Fushimi Makoto and Nakano Nino both heard him say, "Let me tell you, Toru is definitely not normal! The other night I was drinking at his house, and when I was almost drunk, I felt like someone was kissing me."
"Huh? Who's kissing you?" his companion exclaimed in surprise.
I'm so jealous, Nan Tong?
Fushimi Makoto started watching the drama unfold.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Nakano Nino, who was standing in front of him, suddenly turn her head, her small, lightly made-up face filled with shock and curiosity.
Clearly, she was also attracted by this melon.
The man's face flushed red, and he angrily said, "Who else could it be but Toru? I treated him like a brother, and he actually kissed me while I was drunk! I was so shocked that I woke up in a fright, and my clothes were soaked with sweat. Can you imagine how I felt?"
"I never expected Toru to be this kind of person. The three of us have known each other since elementary school. What has he been through all these years?"
The two were chatting away, Nakano Nino was so engrossed in listening that it wasn't Fushimi Makoto patted her on the shoulder that she realized there was no one in front of her anymore.
"Um... I was just curious," she explained somewhat awkwardly.
Fushimi Makoto chuckled dismissively, "You don't need to be like that. I was eavesdropping too. It's not just you who's curious; I was too."
Nakano Nino immediately relaxed.
She then lowered her voice and said, "If what that person said is true, then his friendship with his friend is over, isn't it?"
Fushimi Makoto understood the unspoken meaning in her words: "You have a different opinion?"
"Not really. I just feel that friendships formed from elementary school to adulthood are very precious. If that person had pretended not to know, or pretended to be drunk and pushed their friend away, would their twenty-year friendship have been able to continue?"
Nakano Nino was talking, she noticed that Fushimi Makoto was looking at her strangely.
She couldn't help but wonder, "Did I say something wrong?"
"No, it's normal for you to feel sorry that a 20-year friendship has broken down," Fushimi Makoto agreed.
"But your expression just now was very strange."
You've misjudged.
Fushimi Makoto, of course, could not admit it.
Because what he was thinking was: if he really pretended not to know as you said, then that man Toru might not have been stealing a kiss, but rather a little stick...
Fushimi Makoto could not possibly say such a thing.
Although he felt that Nakano Nino probably wouldn't understand, he still didn't intend to say it.
After successfully taking photos of the last attraction, Nakano Nino held Fushimi Makoto's phone with satisfaction and transferred the photos to her own phone.
"Mr. Nakano didn't call me, so there should still be time." Fushimi Makoto looked at the smiling girl and asked, "Where do you want to go next?"
"You're still going to stay with me?" Nakano Nino's emotions became visibly excited.
"Didn't we just agree on that?"
Fushimi Makoto spoke, he was also a little surprised that Nino was so excited.
Was it because she hadn't run away in so long that successfully escaping in front of her sisters and father this time felt especially thrilling?
Fushimi Makoto felt that this was very likely.
"Let me think about where to go next." After happily sending the photos, Nakano Nino handed the phone back to Fushimi Makoto and looked around.
But as she looked at it, she suddenly froze on the spot.
"What's wrong?" Fushimi Makoto noticed and turned his head in the direction of her gaze.
Miku Nakano walked towards them.
Fushimi Makoto thought Nino was worried about being discovered while sneaking away, so he said, "How about I deal with Miku?"
"No need!" Nakano Nino suddenly raised her voice.
Her reaction confused Fushimi Makoto.
She quickly realized her lapse in composure and hurriedly said, "I can talk to Miku myself. If I ask you to do it, I'm worried she might tell Ichika."
"Good."
Fushimi Makoto Nakano Nino jog away, a strange feeling rose within him.
However, there are too few clues at the moment, and he cannot find the answer.
As soon as Nakano Nino arrived in front of Miku, before she could even speak, Miku looked surprised and asked, "Nino, how did you run so fast?"
"Ah?"
Miku Nakano said in confusion, "I just saw you taking pictures with Ichika over there, how did you end up here in the blink of an eye? And with Makoto no less... wait a minute!"
Her voice suddenly stopped.
The next second, Miku's eyes sharpened. "Even if Nino runs fast, she can't possibly be faster than me, because Dad just went to look for you and Ichika. Knowing his personality, he'll definitely have a chat with you two."
The girl in front of Miku Nakano Miku, her lips slightly parted, but she couldn't utter a sound.
"Itsuki, is that you?" Miku Nakano asked expressionlessly.
She saw both Ichika and Nino; Yotsuba could never do such a thing.
So there's only one answer: the person in front of you is Itsuki.
"I..."
"If you want to make excuses or lie, then I'll go find Makoto."
"..."
After a brief silence, "Nakano Nino" gave up struggling and said softly, "I am Itsuki."
Miku Nakano was even more surprised. "Why did you pretend to be Nino?"
She glanced at Fushimi Makoto not far away. "And you even disguised yourself Nino and had a secret rendezvous with Makoto?"
"What secret rendezvous? I just asked him to come over and take some nice photos for me." Nakano Itsuki blushed.
Miku Nakano, then her tone gradually became subtle. "I always thought that you were the least likely of the five of us to do something like this."
"That's because you've all been keeping it from me!" Nakano Itsuki suddenly raised her voice.
After saying that, she seemed to regret it, her cheeks flushed as she lowered her head. "Even you, Miku, are like that."
Miku Nakano: "?"
Nakano Itsuki bit her lip, her expression a mix of anger and resentment. "That night, I saw you enter Makoto's room with my own eyes."
This time, it was Miku Nakano's turn to blush.
Nakano Itsuki's voice continued, "I not only saw it, I also heard you... humming softly in his room."
You even know this?
Miku Nakano trembled and lowered her head.
The two sisters looked down at each other.
At this moment, Miku Nakano felt a familiar sense of shame.
For example, the other day I couldn't resist doing some traditional things while taking a shower, and when I looked up I saw Fushimi Makoto hanging on the wall like a special senseless zombie from Left 4 Dead...
How embarrassing!
Both of them knew that remaining silent like this was not a good thing.
Finally Miku Nakano blushed and asked softly, "Did you prepare a wig similar to Nino's beforehand?"
"Um."
Since she had already given herself away, Nakano Itsuki decided not to hide it anymore. "I was originally planning to wait a few more days, but Ichika said today that since everyone did so well on their first exam, why don't we dress up the same way at the celebration party? After all, that's how we did it when we were kids."
Miku Nakano realized a detail. "Since Dad is also at the celebration party, Ichika and Nino probably feel they won't have a chance to meet Makoto alone, so you..."
"That's right, I even used Nino's perfume, and the same shower gel and shampoo." Nakano Itsuki seemed to have given up and admitted everything.
But there was something she didn't say.
The reason she was able to perfectly impersonate Nino today was simply because she had practiced many times in private.
Miku Nakano was greatly shocked.
Itsuki had it all: perfect timing, favorable location, and harmonious relationships.
No wonder she was able to bypass everyone without anyone noticing.
