Sakakihara Raku has been a little confused lately.

At the beginning of the new semester, two adopted sisters entered the family, which seemed to bring many changes to his life.

Tenkai Kururi and Tenkai Nanimeige, two beautiful girls who are as beautiful as cherry blossoms in April, Sakakihara Raku has always wanted to get along with them as brothers.

This is a peaceful and beautiful life.

But why do I feel like a Shura field when I stay with my three younger sisters?

Thursday, early morning the day before exam day.

Last night I studied until one o'clock in the morning and then went to bed.

Sakakibara held his head and looked at the ceiling in ecstasy.

The shadows of the two people kept recollecting in my mind——

Jiu Liuli, who helped her tidy up her collar, and Qi Mingyue, who liked to call her brother and argue with her.

He felt like they had taken over most of his life.

Like them?

No, it's impossible. This is just like being a girl control, it's absolutely impossible.

He is just an elder brother, and as an elder brother, he occasionally takes care of them in this family.

They are very good and good.

But Sakakihara Raku didn't feel that he was falling behind them.

[People are not born great, but show their greatness as they grow up]

As long as you work hard and study hard, you can make progress on your own, instead of being like that alcoholic dad who doesn't want to make progress and just drinks to drown his sorrows all day long and complains about the injustice that society has done to him.

Although the world is unfair, but as a saying goes, hard work will not necessarily be rewarded, but if you don't work hard, there will be no reward.

A decadent life is never what I want.

Sakakibara looked at the time on his phone and found that it was half past six, so he turned over and got up.

After brushing his teeth and rinsing his face, and walking out of the bathroom with a mouthwash cup in hand, Sakakibara happened to see a girl with long flaxen hair standing on the balcony looking at the sea breeze.

Her back was slender, and she was only wearing a white summer dress, with a white ribbon tied around her waist swaying in the wind.

It is the sky and the sea. The seven bright moons.

Sakakibara hesitated for a moment and recognized it.

The side face bathed in the morning light has a peaceful beauty. Even though he is just standing there, facing the blowing sea breeze, it is as beautiful as a brightly colored watercolor painting.

He stopped and couldn't help but look towards the balcony one more time.

Wanting to know what she was looking at, Sakakihara placed the mouthwash cup on the coffee table and stepped across the sliding glass door of the living room.

"Good morning, brother." Tianhai Qimingyue did not look back, but she knew that he was coming behind her.

"Good morning. Did you get up so early today?"

"Get up early to see the sunrise." Tianhai Qimingyue looked at the blue sky with a calm and ethereal voice.

"The bird returns to its roost at dusk?" Raku Sakakihara tried to pick up the next sentence.

"It's just Mu Jianqiutiao. My brother is not a poetry lover. Why do you know so much and don't have any accent in Chinese?"

Sakakihara folded his hands on the balcony guardrail, looked at the Tokyo Bay harbor and said: "Everyone has a secret, and if I tell you, you may not believe it."

The Seven Bright Moons in the Sky and the Sea did not go into details.

"So, does my brother like Qi Mingyue today?"

"I can only say, barely."

"Barely?"

"You have a bad personality, are arrogant, narcissistic, and extremely petty. Apart from your beautiful appearance, you have nothing worthy of praise." Raku Sakakibara nodded and said. The so-called so-called sound and logical person probably means being like him.

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Tianhai Qi Mingyue's mouth: "Really? But Qi Mingyue feels that on the premise of beautiful appearance, all the shortcomings mentioned by the above brother can be collectively called one advantage - self-confidence."

"Too much confidence is arrogance, which is also a shortcoming."

"Perfect self-confidence also requires sufficient strength. Qi Mingyue is quite self-aware."

"Brother, you must know that Qi Mingyue is the only girl who has ever worn a wedding dress for you, and you are also the only man who has ever touched my feet."

Why did she suddenly say such ambiguous words? Even though there was no emotion in her voice.

".It's just about taking wedding photos and bandaging my feet. By the way, why do you like wedding dresses?"

"Everyone has a secret."

Sakakihara smiled when he heard his answer just now: "After all, no girl will casually agree to take wedding photos without being engaged."

"This is not necessarily true. My mother wore a wedding dress and took artistic photos before she got married." The eyes like gems like the seven bright moons in the sky looked at the blue sea and blue sky. "Of course, the most important question is my brother's current situation. The favorability is not enough.”

"It means I can't get your answer yet, right?"

"Brother has become smarter. But it would be nice if he could be smarter."

Smarter?

Sakakibara began to understand the deeper meaning of her words.

Make yourself smarter.

With the narcissistic mentality of Tianhai Qimingyue, he probably wants to say: If you are smarter, you can barely reach the end of her.

"You mean I'm not as good as you?"

Tianhai Qimingyue did not deny it: "Brother, you can give it a try. The monthly exam is coming soon."

Although the exam cannot prove how smart a person is, in this matter, Sakakihara Raku is fully confident that he can pass the exam.

Nonsense, she teaches math by herself, how can I not know her level?

Sakakihara laughed and said, "Okay."

"There is one more competition, so it would be a pity if there is no betting agreement. If my ranking is higher than that of my brother, my brother must remember to promise Qi Mingyue one thing, anything."

"What's the matter? I'm sincere enough to take a wedding photo with you, right?"

"Brother, have you ever seen a novel where the bets are written in advance?"

"I understand, this is called maintaining a sense of mystery."

"Brother, are you afraid?"

"Your provoking method is too low-level," Sakakibara paused for a second, "But because you are so sincere, I agreed. And if I win you, I won't ask you to do anything. Just don't say to me, 'Falling in love with Qimingyue'."

"The method of stimulating generals does not depend on whether it is advanced or not, but whether it is useful," Tianhai Qimingyue shook his head, "And my brother is really not honest at all. Why do we have to deny the established facts?"

It's not that he denies it, but he actually prefers Jiu Liuli to Qi Mingyue.

Although the two have the same appearance, the same height, and the same figure.

But for him, Jiu Liuli's gentle and elegant character is still more considerate.

Usually when she is cooking and washing dishes, she will take the initiative to smile at herself, and then help her with heart.

She is sunny, hard-working, humble and exudes confidence.

It's the same in the Kyudo Club. Sitting behind her and watching her shooting posture, you will always be infected by her serious temperament.

"Brother, aren't you thinking about your sister?"

"ah?"

"Qi Mingyue can tell brother that although my sister respects him very much and appreciates his contribution to the family, her favorability towards him is not as good as Qi Mingyue's."

"Do you have a crush on me?! Do you like to quarrel with me?"

"There's nothing wrong with bickering."

"Besides bickering, what other interactions did I have with you? I only had a little more contact during the wedding photo shoot, but it was still bickering the whole time."

Tianhai Qimingyue said no more. She continued to look at the blue sky, and her eyes followed a soaring seagull into the distance.

Wouldn't she like herself?

No, absolutely impossible. This is one of the three major illusions in life.

Moreover, when Qi Mingyue took wedding photos, she was more interested in teasing herself for fun.

You might get a little favor by carrying her back.

But that's definitely just a little bit, and there won't be any feelings of liking in it at all.

In summary.

Qi Mingyue will not like herself.

Sakakibara was happy to see that she had no intention of continuing to chat with him, so he said:

"I'm going to help you prepare breakfast and lunch boxes."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, brother." Tianhai Qimingyue still looked at the blue sky and felt the sea breeze, as if she liked this feeling very much.

In her normal state, Tian Hai Qi Mingyue is a speechless girl with an expressionless face. If she is even slightly interested, she will secretly be happy in her heart.

Keeping this in mind, Sakakibara walked back to the living room. As soon as he took two steps closer, he found a head staring at him from the wall. When he looked over, the head immediately retracted. .

It must be Ah Ling.

Why has she been peeking at herself lately?

Sakakibara only glanced in that direction again, then walked to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast and lunch for today.

Let’s work hard for tomorrow’s monthly test.

————————

The Monday after the monthly test.

In the classroom in the afternoon, the desk is piled with textbooks, the gauze curtain is blown by the wind, and in front of you are the lunch boxes that have just been eaten and are neatly stacked.

Students walked back to the classroom from the cafeteria in groups, talking and laughing about interesting things on campus.

As soon as the monthly test ended, everyone obviously relaxed.

Sakakibara held his face with his left hand. The breeze blowing through the green leaves outside the window rolled up the hair on his forehead. He pressed the cap of the mechanical pencil back and forth with his right hand. He was thinking about whether to try to fall in love now that the monthly test is over. .

But love is really not something that can be discussed just by talking.

Take the initiative to confess your feelings?

No, no, no, I don’t have that kind of girl that I particularly like.

Because you want to fall in love, just find a random girl and confess your love rashly, this is too shocking.

Whether the other party can agree is another matter.

I don't know why, as I was thinking about it, I thought of Jiuliuli again.

Under the long flaxen hair, a smile as beautiful as a cherry blossom.

An indescribable feeling in his heart forced him to put down the mechanical pencil and open the notebook in front of him.

Sakakihara held up his face and stared at the blank lines of the notebook for a long time, and subconsciously turned the pen holder with his fingertips.

The breeze blows the curtains behind me, and the sunlight that passes through the shade of the trees dapples on the dark green notebook, swimming with the rustling of the leaves.

He struggled for a long time, and finally wrote the characters [天海九色熟] in cursive script on Mo Xiang's paper.

He stared at the name for a long time.

First he recalled her appearance, and then an inexplicable feeling of impatience welled up in his heart.

Sakakibara quickly closed the notebook.

He stopped spinning his pen, his heart beating like he was after sprinting for a hundred meters.

He thought to himself, he was eighteen in his last life and seventeen in this life, a total of thirty-five years. Is he suddenly in love?

No, you shouldn’t have a crush.

But the image of Tianhai Jiuliuli has been lingering in my mind. She arranged the clothes carefully when buying clothes for herself, wore short-sleeved shorts, and showed a sunny and comfortable posture when running with him...etc., etc.

His right hand touched the softness of his neck.

And the faint fragrance that floated when she was close to him.

Sakakibara Raku is not the kind of person who won't admit whether he likes something or not.

He likes perfection, and he also likes perfect girls.

He began to imagine what would happen if he fell in love with Tianhai Jiuliuli.

First of all, she would most likely not agree to it because of her status.

Although she is very kind to herself, she also understands the priorities of things.

Do you like Jiuliuli?

My mother just misunderstood herself and Qi Mingyue a while ago. If she suddenly told her that she liked Jiu Liuli, she wouldn't know how she would look at her.

Mom, difficulty A

Seven Bright Moons in the Sky and the Sea. A mysterious girl with multiple attributes and a fond attitude toward her sister. It would be very difficult for him to snatch her sister away.

Seven Bright Moon, difficulty S+

Sakakihara Suzu. My own sister! There is no need to tell her about love at all, but because of her identity as Jiuliuli's adopted sister, she still has to take care of her thoughts.

Sakakihara Suzu, difficulty S

On Uncle Tianhai's side, the difficulty is SSS.

Although I didn't have much contact with this stepfather, I only exchanged a few words with him briefly during breakfast in the morning, and then he handed a few people's pocket money into his hands, which was so familiar.

But Sakakihara Raku always felt that the number one lawyer at Tokyo Asuka Firm was very dangerous.

He had never heard of a lawyer who was proficient in more than a dozen languages.

A top human being.

After listing all the regulations, Sakakihara Raku realized that there were so many difficulties here. It was simply as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Sakakibara put down the pen in his hand, looked at the several names surrounding Tianhai Jiureli, and fell into depressed contemplation.

But Sakakihara figured it out and realized that he really had feelings for Jiu Liuli.

He accidentally remembered Mr. Lu Xun's words.

Use it a little bit.

I probably had a secret love, and I couldn't figure it out anyway, so I raised my face and turned a pen. This mood has no reason. I look sadly at the pairs of pens on the table. This one is mine, and the other one is also mine. But after looking at it for a long time, I still feel a little envious.

Sakakihara Raku understands the root of his love for Ruri.

This probably goes back to my miserable previous life and the first ten years of this life.

Even though no one has ever been able to help her share the household chores, Jiuliuli still has the same hobbies as herself, the same likes running, and the same likes archery.

The most important thing is the gentleness she treats him from the bottom of her heart after getting to know her.

No one can dislike gentle women in reality.

Because in reality, they are often the rarest type.

"Sakakibara-kun?"

"Monitor." Sakakibara put down the hand holding his face, closed the notebook and raised his head, "What's the matter?"

"Sorry for disturbing Sakakibara-kun's meditation."

Mizuki Ai still has the slightly curly short hair. Because of her petite figure, she has a soft smile on her face: "It seems that the monthly test results have been announced. Do you want to take a look together?"

"Has it been announced? Well, let's go and have a look."

The results announcement board is in the school atrium.

Obviously, he and the squad leader were not the only ones to know that the monthly test results were released.

When the two of them rushed downstairs from the classroom, the area near the notice board was already crowded with students.

Sakakibara wanted to think about the few people at the front and observed a few more times. Some were disappointed, some were happy, some had expressionless faces, some were full of despair, some encouraged themselves to keep working hard, and some encouraged themselves to continue to maintain a clear and bright campus youth version. Up the river map.

This monthly test is of great significance. I heard that it will affect the placement of sophomores in high school and so on.

"There seem to be a lot of people." Mizuki Ai looked at the other end and said.

Sakakihara Raku said, "There's nothing I can do about it. It was probably posted not long ago. Let's go over there and stand there for a while."

"okay."

With no choice, Sakakibara could only stand under the shade of the tree with the class leader, waiting for the people in front to finish reading before talking.

In addition, the campus legend about "Twin Beauties" has been spread throughout Mingde Elementary School.

A first-year transfer student, whose family is powerful, has a relationship with the school director, and is the daughter of a certain group.

There are countless rumors like this.

But this is normal. Meitoku Gijuku is a prestigious school since the Edo period. The students who attend the school are originally rich and powerful, including the daughters of ministers, the daughters of groups with assets worth hundreds of billions, and the daughters of congressmen.

Legend has it that as long as you fall in love with any one of them, you can embark on a life that requires no effort at all.

Who doesn’t want to be attracted by a powerful and beautiful daughter of a wealthy family?

It was a complete class leap in an instant, and the Avenue of Stars was even more exciting than Shuangwen!

Of course, the premise is that you must be good enough, otherwise the other party may not agree even if you are willing to marry.

The longer I attend school and the more I understand this school, the more I realize that Ah Ling could have spent millions of yen to attend this school, but it would have been impossible without Uncle Tianhai's help.

The students who were looking at the monthly test rankings in front were talking about something. Occasionally, I can hear discussions about the surname "Tianhai", and keywords such as "first" and "second" are used.

Sakakihara Raku's eyebrows jumped.

"Amami-kun, is she really Sakakibara-kun's sister?" Mizukami Ai stood beside him, struggling for a while, and finally asked him this question.

Sakakihara retracted his thoughts, but kept looking at the notice board, "Ah, yes, but we only met him not long ago."

"Is it a combined family?"

"Yes."

"Tenkai-san's house. No, it should be Sakakibara-kun's house. Can I take the liberty to ask what it does?"

The squad leader had obviously heard those rumors.

"It's nothing, Uncle Tianhai is just a lawyer."

"Lawyers? But everyone says that the families of the two Tianhai classmates have a lot of connections with the school, and they are also said to be wealthy daughters of a certain group."

"These are all exaggerated rumors. But they must be related to the school, but I don't know."

Wait until the crowd disperses a little.

Raku Sakakihara led his class monitor into the crowd and started looking for his name on the first-year list.

He was quite confident about this monthly test. How could he be defeated so easily after working hard for several weeks? !

First place, Tianhai Jiuliuli

Second place, Tianhai Qimingyue

Third place, Chida Nana

Third place, Sakakihara Raku (tied)

Sakakibara's face immediately twitched, and his heart trembled.

Something is wrong, something is completely wrong!

It's just Tianhai Jiuliuli, her learning skills are better than hers.

But what the hell is Tianhai Qimingyue? Isn't she a mess in math?

Shady, definitely shady!

Sakakihara Raku, who originally thought that he could suppress Nanamigetsu by relying on mathematics, could already imagine Nanamigetsu's contemptuous face when he went to the literature club.

‘Didn’t my brother say that he could definitely get a higher score than Qi Mingyue? ’

The noisy discussions near the bulletin board continued to be heard, and Sakakibara calmed down while looking at the cruel bulletin board.

Otherwise, I might as well not go to the Literature Club in the afternoon.
