"...You want to call Hitori-chan over to stay the night?"
Kitahara Makoto easily understood the subtext.
"That's right." Togawa Sakiko crossed her arms, not concealing her true purpose. "Being alone in a room with a boy is too dangerous."
Kitahara Makoto was speechless: "No, how is it dangerous?"
Togawa Sakiko lifted her chin: "I heard from a friend that boys easily turn into beasts at night."
Kitahara Makoto couldn't help but retort:
"Hey, hey, have I been expelled from humanity or something?"
"So, I want to call Hitori-chan to accompany me." Togawa Sakiko sat upright. "With two people, Kitahara-kun surely wouldn't do anything excessive, right?"
Worrying about your chastity being taken and calling someone else for moral support is certainly not wrong, but the problem is you chose the wrong person!
If your combat power is five points, then Bocchi-chan's combat power is zero point five points. She's not even a pet; at most, she's a mascot!
Kitahara Makoto was very confident. If he really couldn't control himself at night, and his reason was devoured by the monster called desire, he could definitely easily stack the two girls and enter and exit seven times!
Kitahara Makoto intertwined his fingers: "Has Togawa Sakiko ever considered another possibility?"
"What?"
Togawa Sakiko tilted her head and looked over.
Kitahara Makoto said faintly:
"You called Hitori-chan over, but it was actually a buy one get one free deal?"
Togawa Sakiko: "…"
"If something like that really happened, there's nothing that can be done…" Togawa let out a soft breath. "But I believe in Kitahara Makoto's character."
Kitahara Makoto squinted: "If you believed in my character, you wouldn't have called Hitori-chan over."
"It's just a precaution, please don't take it to heart."
"…"
After getting Kitahara Makoto's consent, Togawa Sakiko took out her phone and contacted Bocchi-chan.
There were no surprises.
Gotō Hitori, being a Little Miss Anxiety, clearly didn't know how to refuse people, so even though Togawa Sakiko's request made her very nervous, she still agreed.
"I just asked, Hitori-chan's parents are both home. If I let Hitori-chan come out to accompany me this late, her parents will definitely worry." Togawa Sakiko stood up. "…It seems necessary to go there in person to reassure Hitori-chan's parents."
To trick Bocchi-chan out, she actually considered everything so thoroughly. She truly is a Conspirer!
"Kitahara-kun, let's go." Togawa Sakiko tilted her head and looked over.
Kitahara Makoto was startled: "I have to go too?"
"Of course." Togawa Sakiko crossed her arms over her chest. "That ghost Senpai might appear at any time. If she jumps out midway and Kitahara-kun happens to eliminate her, that would be the truly best of both worlds."
"…Wait a moment."
Kitahara Makoto got up and walked to the bookshelf, putting away the notebooks on it to prevent Gotō Hitori from seeing them.
It was an accident for Miss Fallen Ojou-sama to see the notebooks. Those things were thrown on the bookshelf and he had completely forgotten about them. If he didn't put them away now, it would be truly inexcusable.
"Heh, men."
Watching Kitahara Makoto busily collecting his dirty possessions, Togawa Sakiko subconsciously puffed out her pink cheeks.
It's okay for her to see such terrible things, but not for Hitori-chan, right?
Having finished tidying up, Kitahara Makoto and Togawa Sakiko changed their shoes and left, heading to Gotō. The two places were indeed very close, only a few hundred meters in a straight line, which is why they often ran into each other at the Train Station.
"Kitahara-kun, you stay here, don't move." Togawa Sakiko extended her right hand and said lightly, "I can handle going to the door alone. Kitahara-kun showing up would only make things more troublesome."
Kitahara Makoto looked over silently: "Are you taking advantage of me?"
"I'm sorry, I don't understand what Kitahara-kun is saying."
Togawa Sakiko's skirt fluttered, and she walked away quickly, disappearing in a flash.
Kitahara Makoto stopped and stood under a cherry blossom tree, looking around silently.
He saw Togawa Sakiko arrive at Gotō's door and press the doorbell. Soon after, Bocchi-chan, carrying a school bag, appeared behind the door. Besides her, there was also a sweet-looking lady, smiling broadly, clearly happy that her daughter had made a friend.
The distance was a bit far, so Kitahara Makoto couldn't hear what they were saying, but just by their expressions, he knew that Miss Fallen Ojou-sama had successfully gained the trust of the Gotō family with her superb acting skills.
A moment later.
Togawa Sakiko, having finished her chat, walked over with Little Miss Anxiety.
"Hitori-chan, good evening." Looking at Little Miss Anxiety, who was wearing a pink jacket and carrying a large school bag, Kitahara Makoto couldn't help but smile.
Gotō Hitori looked up, their eyes met, and she quickly lowered her head, blushing, stammering softly:
"G-Good evening…"
Kitahara Makoto smiled:
"Although we often meet at the Train Station, I didn't expect us to live so close. I can often come over to play with Hitori-chan from now on."
"Eh, eh, eh?!"
Gotō Hitori immediately panicked, her small face rapidly turning red at a visible speed.
Togawa Sakiko is fine, but if a boy comes over to play with her… Her parents would misunderstand, right?
Looking at the flustered, crimson-faced Bocchi-chan, Kitahara Makoto felt refreshed.
For some reason, every time he bullied Bocchi-chan, he felt a considerable amount of joy.
At this moment, a clear, cold voice suddenly rang out:
"It's already very late, and we have school tomorrow."
Kitahara Makoto turned his head to look, Miss Fallen Ojou-sama was expressionless for some reason.
"It's indeed not early." Kitahara Makoto stretched his limbs. "Hitori-chan, come home with me."
"Mm-hmm."
Little Miss Anxiety quickly nodded, following with small steps, carrying her school bag.
There was no conversation along the way.
The three quickly returned home.
"Hitori-chan, change into slippers."
Kitahara Makoto opened the shoe cabinet, took out the slippers, and thoughtfully placed them in front of Little Miss Anxiety: "These are cool slippers I prepared, never worn. They're just right for showering."
"Thank you, Kitahara-kun…"
Gotō Hitori thanked him softly.
"You're welcome." Kitahara Makoto said gently, "Relax, just treat it like your own home."
