As the cultural festival got closer, everyone had more and more things to prepare. In addition to the activities scheduled by the light music club, each class also began to prepare for the cultural festival activities. Fang Zheng, Touma Kazusa and Kiyoura Setsuna's Class E planned to build a haunted house, while Ogiso Setsuna and Saionji Sekai's Class A planned to build a maid cafe. As the class monitor and vice-class monitor, Fang Zheng and Kiyoura Setsuna naturally became busy. As for Touma Kazusa... Although she didn't care about these activities, she stayed obediently under Fang Zheng's threat of "If you don't stay to help, you can go play by yourself."

"I...hate... so much..."

Under the dim light, a female ghost with disheveled hair and dressed in white slowly poked her head out of the well. Seeing this scene, many people's hair stood on end, but Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction.

"Well done, this female ghost really suits you, Touma."

"Kasugano, this is not something to be praised for a girl."

Even Qingpu Setsuna couldn't help but start to complain, but Fang Zheng... of course didn't care.

"What does it matter? At least we need such a dedicated female ghost right now, right? Well done."

“…”

Touma Hesa, who was playing the female ghost, glared at Fang Zheng coldly, then shrank back into the well.

"In this way, the arrangement is almost complete."

Fang Zheng turned around and carefully checked the haunted house again.

"Let's complete the rest as planned... We should be able to finish it before the cultural festival. Let's stop here for today. Thank you for your hard work."

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the other students around him also breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to go home. Fang Zheng greeted Qingpu Setsuna and walked to the classroom door - as expected, Qiong and Gui Yanye were waiting there.

"let's go."

After saying hello to the two of them, Fang Zheng turned around and left the school with them.

It was only a few days before the Cultural Festival that Gui Yanye went with Fang Zheng and the others. The reason was simple. Since the Cultural Festival began, people in Gui Yanye's class pushed a lot of work to her. In response, Gui Yanye always accepted it without saying a word. Qiong naturally couldn't stand it, so after finishing her work, she would directly pull Gui Yanye away and go home with Fang Zheng. When Fang Zheng was around, people in Gui Yanye's class didn't dare to do anything to Gui Yanye.

After several contacts with Gui Yanye, Fang Zheng has almost understood the girl's personality - well-behaved, introverted, shy, and not good at communicating with others. Unlike Qiong, Qiong is too lazy to get along well with the people in the class, but Gui Yanye wants to get along well with others but doesn't know how to do it.

No wonder she kills people.

To be honest, after learning about the situation around Gui Yanye, Fang Zheng understood why Gui Yanye would kill someone over a disagreement. After all, the most terrifying thing is when an honest person gets angry, and Gui Yanye has always been bullied in school. If she is stimulated and encounters something, it is not surprising that she will suddenly erupt.

On the other hand, Fang Zheng was puzzled by Saionji Sekai. After all, after such a long time of contact, he felt that although Saionji Sekai was a little scheming, she was essentially a lively, cute, and a little cunning girl. And unlike Katsura Kotonoha who had no friends and was often treated with cold violence, Saionji Sekai had friends all over the world and was cheerful and outgoing. How could she kill someone just because of a disagreement... Fang Zheng couldn't figure it out.

"How was school today?"

In the train, Fang Zheng asked as he looked out the window at the scenery passing by quickly. Qiong snorted when he heard Fang Zheng's question.

"boring."

"All right."

Hearing the same answer as always, Fang Zheng shrugged helplessly.

"Although I won't ask you to get along well with those people, you still have to be careful. After all, although those people won't make things difficult for you for my sake, they might go looking for trouble with Miss Gui. You can't be with her 24 hours a day."

"I, I'm fine."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Gui Yanye, who was standing on the other side, quickly waved her hand and replied.

"The same goes for you, Katsura-san."

Now that he had opened his mouth, Fang Zheng decided to say a few more words.

"Blindly giving in won't solve the problem. You have to remember that although those people are your classmates, that's all. If they don't regard you as a friend, then you don't need to regard them as a friend either. When you should refuse, stand up straight and refuse. If you obey them, those guys will only get worse."

"……yes."

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Gui Yanye just lowered her head and replied softly. Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more. After all, to solve the problem of school bullying, the person involved must take action himself. No matter how much outsiders do, it will be useless. If Gui Yanye continues like this, even if Qiong protects her, there will be no good results.

Just like that, the three of them didn't say anything else along the way. Gui Yanye also said goodbye halfway, and then Fang Zheng took Qiong home.

After finishing dinner and packing up, Fang Zheng returned to his room to rest while looking at the night view outside the window. It was already late at night, and it was gradually raining outside. The whole town was shrouded in rain and looked hazy.

"It's nice to relax like this once in a while."

Fang Zheng yawned and relaxed a lot. There was no fighting in this world. It was just ordinary campus life. It was relaxing. It would be great if every world he traveled through was so simple... go to school, flirt with girls... Oh, by the way, the premise is that the damn system doesn't cause trouble.

"boom!!"

Just as Fang Zheng was thinking this, suddenly, there was a loud thunder, and the next moment, the whole room suddenly became dark.

"Oh my god, what happened? Is the power out?"

The sudden power outage startled Fang Zheng, but the next moment, a scream suddenly rang out, causing Fang Zheng to jump up.

"ah--!!"

"Qiong?"

Hearing the scream, Fang Zheng rushed out of the room and rushed to the living room following the scream. However, just as he arrived in the living room, a petite body threw himself into his arms.

"Qiong? Are you okay?"

Although the living room was pitch black at the moment, Fang Zheng, who had his own "dark vision", could clearly see that Qiong was wet all over, wrapped only in a bath towel - well, it seemed that she had just taken a shower.

"No, it's okay..."

In Fang Zheng's arms, Qiong seemed to have calmed down a lot.

"Is there a power outage?"

"It looks like there's a power outage."

Fang Zheng looked out the window. It was pitch black everywhere. It seemed that the lightning strike had damaged something again.

"Really..."

After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Qiong muttered to herself, but didn't say anything else. The two of them just stood there in silence... This was definitely not a good thing.

"Qiong? Go change your clothes, or you'll catch a cold if you keep going like this."

"……help me."

"Hmm? What?"

"Help me clean it up..."

Burying her head in Fang Zheng's chest, Qiong spoke in a low voice.

"I am alone...I cannot see..."

I can’t see it either… No, I can see it, okay.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway... we are brother and sister."

"All right."

Since Qiong said so, Fang Zheng naturally didn't say anything more. He took Qiong to the bathroom, took the towel, and began to wipe the girl in front of him. First, the smooth long hair, then the cheeks, neck, shoulders, and then... cough cough...

“Woo…”

Feeling the touch on his body, Qiong gritted his teeth and lowered his head. Although it was dark, Fang Zheng could still clearly see the blush on the girl's cheeks.

Well... the little girl's figure is still a little thin... She really needs to eat more meat.

Putting aside his random thoughts, Fang Zheng helped Qiong dry her body, then took her pajamas and asked her to put them on.

However, just as he was about to turn around and leave, Qiong reached out again and grabbed Fang Zheng's arm.

"Can we sleep together today?"

Fang Zheng would naturally not refuse Qiong's proposal. After all, he had slept with more than one or two sisters.

When they returned to the room, the power outage was still going on, and Qiong hugged her pillow and lay down next to Fang Zheng.

"Okay, go to sleep."

"elder brother……"

"Um?"

"How long has it been since we slept together?"

"It's been a while."

Fang Zheng thought about it carefully and realized that they had been sleeping separately for a long time, although it didn't matter.

"Um……"

After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Qiong didn't say anything else, but closed her eyes. Not long after, Fang Zheng also closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

However, not long after Fang Zheng closed his eyes, he suddenly felt a soft touch on his arm.

This is……?

Just as Fang Zheng was confused, a faint voice sounded in his ears.

“Brother…brother…”

That was Qiong's voice. Her voice sounded trembling and a little suppressed.

Next to Fang Zheng, Qiong gritted her teeth and let out a barely audible moan. Her petite body trembled and curled up. After a moment, Fang Zheng felt the girl next to him suddenly stiffen, and then regained her composure with a gasp.

After a while, Qiong's originally rapid breathing began to become steady, and it was obvious that she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Trouble...

Lying next to Qiong, feeling the girl's hot body, Fang Zheng sighed deeply in his heart.

How can I do this...
