In the end, the girls in the chat group each confirmed what they were going to do this weekend.
One group was going to the book signing, and the other was going to Jerry's to learn Hamon.
Of course, there were still many who, because they were relatively far from Tokyo and Chiba, couldn't go to either. Besides discussing with Takanashi Rikka how to explain what she had seen in the diary, they could only cheer on the other girls in the group and wait for them to share information.
Kasumigaoka Utaha was chatting with the girls in the group who were coming to the meetup about how to find the mysterious person until late at night, so much so that she was in a bit of a hurry when she woke up the next day.
Even with the help of ripple breathing to fall asleep, one still had to maintain about four or five hours of sleep to ensure a full day of clarity.
Unless one could reach a state of constantly maintaining ripple breathing even while sleeping, in which case one could maintain a sleep time of two or three hours for a certain period.
But obviously, among the girls who currently possessed a diary, no one had yet reached this level.
Fortunately, ripple breathing had improved her body coordination and control a lot.
This had at least saved her a quarter of an hour of makeup time. In the end, before the planned time, she had successfully arrived at the scene of the book signing.
She took out her phone, replied to her editor, and then greeted the few girls in the group.
Compared to her rush, that Yukinoshita in the group seemed much more composed.
She had gotten up earlier than her, and at about seven thirty in the morning, she had sent a message saying that she would visit Kuroneko before nine in the morning.
To this, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt a little regretful.
After all, this "other half of the sky" had not come to the last gathering. It was only later when everyone was discussing the Service Club in the group that she had finally shown her true colors.
And this week, the other party had chosen to go to Kuroneko's place to challenge the Jerry raid boss.
It seemed that this time, she still wouldn't be able to see this Second Miss Yukinoshita, who was equally famous as herself (actually, clearly a cut above), with her own eyes.
All she could do was @ the other party in the group and ask them to remember to take a picture and upload it to the group after they met, so she could see what she was like.
After that, she said another word to the girls in the group who were coming to the signing here, and then went to prepare for the pre-signing work with the on-site staff.
And on Yukinoshita Yukino's side, she had, at this moment, arrived at the door of the Goko residence at the agreed time in an orderly manner.
The reason she had not gone to the gathering last week was, one, because she was still unsure of the purpose of some of the girls in the group and was worried that there might be some trap in that gathering.
Another important reason was that she had not yet moved out of her family home last week.
After seeing her original future in the diary, Yukinoshita Yukino had already made the decision to change.
If she continued to live at home, even if others couldn't see the existence of the diary, the changes from her practicing ripple breathing might be noticed by her older sister and mother.
Yukinoshita Yukino, who was unwilling to lie, also didn't want to explain these supernatural matters to her family.
And so, after a lot of effort, she had successfully persuaded her mother and moved into an apartment not far from the school.
And her sudden assertive stance at that time had also made her mother observe her with a scrutinizing gaze for a good while, a rare occurrence. Only after confirming that her attitude was not a joke did she agree.
And this week, Yukinoshita Yukino, who was spending the weekend away from home for the first time in her life, told her mother again that she was going to meet a friend on the weekend and would not be coming home.
"With my mother's attitude, she's probably already investigating what's been happening to me recently," Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but think, looking at the slightly old Goko residence in front of her.
I wonder what she will think after she investigates and finds out that the little daughter of the Shinomiya family has met with the eldest daughter of the Goko family?
Just thinking of this, Yukinoshita's mood couldn't help but become a little low.
After all, the Yukinoshita family had started in the construction industry and was now a member of the Chiba Prefectural Assembly. If they wanted to go a step further, they would inevitably have to get involved with those real politicians and large conglomerates.
Compared to her father's affability, her mother was very assertive.
However, very quickly, Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head.
She had come here precisely to insist on her own ideas. The matters at home could not affect her choice of her own life.
With this thought, Yukinoshita Yukino pressed the doorbell.
As Goko Ruri, dressed in a Gothic Lolita outfit, opened the door, she gave a very polite bow and made a self-introduction in person.
Looking at the somewhat cold Yukinoshita Yukino in front of her, although Goko Ruri had already met the even more distinguished Shinomiya Kaguya last week, because Shinomiya Kaguya hadn't rested well, the first time they met, she had met Shinomiya Kaguya in her "Kaguya-chan" state.
Even though Shinomiya Kaguya had returned to normal after resting, the impression everyone had of her had already undergone some subtle deviations. They didn't completely see her as the young lady of a large conglomerate.
In comparison, the Yukinoshita Yukino she met this time, the well-bred young lady temperament on her was particularly unique.
But for some reason, even though the two of them were completely different in terms of family background, looks, and hobbies, when Goko Ruri looked at her, she inexplicably felt that there might be many similarities between them.
I just don't know how long this cold beauty can maintain her composure under Jerry's torment.
Goko Ruri couldn't help but think.
In these two days, although she had indeed learned a lot from Jerry, she was also indeed quite exhausted by Jerry's seemingly endless energy.
The only fortunate thing was that Jerry still had some sense of proportion when her parents were at home.
But as soon as her parents went to work, Jerry could turn the Goko home into his playground, and the three sisters were all his playmates.
According to Jerry, at his boss's place, he was being squeezed every day to do research. It was almost making the little mouse sick. Now that he finally had a holiday, he of course had to play enough outside, otherwise, after he went back, the little mouse would be squeezed again.
Seeing Jerry describe his life with the mysterious person so tragically, what else could Goko Ruri do but continue to play with him?
Although Yukinoshita Yukino had roughly understood Jerry's personality from Goko Ruri's statements in the group these two days, she had come prepared with a lot of snacks and cakes this time. She felt that these things should be able to make Jerry obediently teach her some things.
And later, a few more girls would come over. No matter how boisterous that Jerry was, he probably couldn't make too big a move, right?
With this thought, the ignorant young girl walked into this house.
