"You mean me?" Ai asked, even though she already knew the answer.
"Yes, I can't help but feel happy whenever I see you."
With his arm around Ai's shoulder, Kōyū turned his head, smelling the faint fragrance lingering around his nose, and said softly, "You always manage to dispel the gloom in my heart so easily."
"It sounds pretty good." Ai replied in a flat tone, her eyes half-closed and her face full of smiles.
"It's pretty good." Kou didn't expose Ai's thoughts, smiled in agreement, and said, "The success rate is one hundred percent."
"Never failed?" Ai shifted her body, finding a more comfortable position in Kouyu's arms, and asked.
"Not at the moment." Kōyū glanced at Ai lying in his arms, gently resting his chin on Ai's head, and answered.
"Then, what about in the future?" Ai knew how Kousuke would reply, but she still wanted to hear Kousuke say it himself.
"There won't be any." Kōyū said with certainty the answer Ai had in her heart.
"Mmm." Ai responded softly, then closed her eyes and lay quietly in Kouyu's arms.
...
A few minutes later, outside the room, Ran and Kazuha were sitting at the table chatting.
"Xiao Lan, have you heard any strange noises outside the entrance?" He Ye frowned slightly and glanced in the direction of the entrance.
"Strange sound?"
After hearing what Kazuha said, Ran listened carefully and found that there was indeed a strange sound outside the entrance.
Although the sound is very faint, almost negligible if you don't listen carefully, it is indeed there.
"Xiao Lan, you heard that too, right?" Kazuha asked softly.
"Hmm," Xiaolan suggested softly, "Why don't we go find Guangyou? He shouldn't be asleep yet."
"Okay." Kazuha nodded, then glanced at the entrance and said, "It's really a bit scary."
After discussing it, the two got up and walked towards Guangyou's room.
...
"Knock knock knock~"
Hearing the knock on the door, Ai, who was lying in Guangyou's arms, opened her eyes, revealing her beautiful ice-blue eyes.
Kōyū, who was holding Ai, opened his eyes, turned to look at the door, and released his arm from Ai's.
"Guangyou, can we come in?" Xiaolan's voice rang out from outside the door.
Without Kōyū saying anything, Ai had already left his embrace, sat on the edge of the bed, picked up a novel, and started reading.
"Okay, come in," Guangyou said to Xiaolan outside the door.
After the door was pushed open, Xiaolan and Heye hurriedly entered the room.
"Sister Xiaolan, Sister Heye, what's wrong with you two?" Guangyou noticed a hint of unease on their faces and asked in confusion, "Did something happen?"
"We heard some strange noises outside the entryway, so..."
Although Xiaolan didn't finish speaking, Guangyou understood why they had come in. He nodded and said, "I see."
After thinking for a moment, Guangyou picked up his phone from beside his pillow, used his hands to support himself, and quickly moved to the edge of the bed.
He turned to the group and said, "I'm going out to take a look. You all stay in the room and don't come out."
Upon hearing this, Kazuha quickly said to Mitsuyu, "Mitsuyu, why don't we wait for Uncle to come back?"
"It's okay, I'll go check it out first." Guangyou waved his phone and said, "If there's any sound, I'll call the police."
"Shall we go together?" Xiaolan said to Guangyou, a little worried about him going alone.
"No need, I can manage on my own." Guangyou smiled at Xiaolan, indicating that she shouldn't worry.
After Kōyū got up, Ai, who was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a novel, said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't be stubborn."
"Don't worry, I won't let the smiley face on the teru teru bozu disappear," Kōyū softly replied to Ai.
"Mmm," Ai replied softly.
Pushing open the door and stepping out of the room, Guangyou slowly walked towards the entrance hall.
He wasn't wearing shoes, and he deliberately walked very quietly, making his footsteps almost inaudible.
Keeping your footsteps down is to avoid alerting the enemy, and also to allow him to hear the subtle sounds better.
Before he even reached the entrance, Guangyou heard the strange sound that Xiaolan had mentioned.
He could tell that it was a man's breathing.
Although the man was trying his best to suppress it, Guangyou could still tell that he was very nervous.
As he walked into the entryway, Kwang-woo stared at the closed door, as if he could see the man outside through it.
Should we rush out and subdue that man?
Yes, but there's no need for it.
Withdrawing his gaze, Guangyou turned around and walked towards the bathroom, picking up his phone to make a call to the police.
Just as Guangyou reached the bathroom door, the phone call went through.
After the call connected, Guangyou told the police about the strange man at the door.
The police told them to stay home, not to wander around or panic, and that they would send officers to investigate.
After giving the police the address of his office, Kwang-yu hung up the phone and walked out of the bathroom.
He wanted to go back to his room and tell Xiaolan and the others that he had called the police, so that they could feel more at ease.
But before he had taken more than a few steps, Guangyou heard a knock on the door.
Then, a male voice came through the door to Guangyou's ears.
"Excuse me, is anyone inside?"
Upon hearing the man's voice, Guangyou immediately burst out laughing: "Oh ho, this guy is quite polite, he even knows to knock on the door."
