"Okay." Miyano Shiho nodded decisively, "What puzzle do you want to compete in?"

"Magic Cube!" Kudo said without hesitation.

"Yeah." Miyano Shiho nodded.

"Shiho..." Miyano Akemi hesitated.

The new brother just came home and they started competing with him. Isn't that a bit bullying?

I don't think Miyano Shiho will lose at all, Akemi.

"It's okay, sister." Miyano Shiho secretly patted her hands and winked at her, "I can't lose."

"Yeah." Miyano Akemi nodded, and whispered, "Let's give in to Kudo a little."

"knew."

The competition officially begins.

Kudo finished solving the Rubik's Cube in one minute. He was looking up proudly to show off his victory when he saw Miyano Shiho had put down the Rubik's Cube and was looking at him.

"Have you finished?" Miyano Shiho put his hands in his pockets, with a hint of sarcasm on his cute face, "It's too slow."

"?" Kudo couldn't believe that he was not better than Miyano Shiho.

This is a Rubik's Cube.

He played with the most extravagant things, and even his dad praised him for it.

How could he not be better than this girl?

"Hey, don't cry yet." Miyano Shiho said, "Call me sister first."

Kudo: ...

Abominable.

However, Kudo is willing to admit defeat and is a man who keeps his promises.

But I still feel very unwilling.

"Sister...is that enough?" Kudo frowned and turned away, not wanting to look at them.

He was so mad! He wanted to work hard! He wanted to be angry and strong!

"Yeah, and my sister." Miyano Shiho folded her arms, "Hurry up, admit defeat."

"..." Kudo turned to the smiling Miyano Akemi and called out, "Sister."

"Is this all right now?"

——

"You can meet Ai in the afternoon." Subaru Okiya looked at Kudo staring at the bowl of porridge in a daze, and said calmly.

What are you thinking about?

"Yeah." Kudo's memories were interrupted. He looked up at him and responded in a low voice without any expression, but his mood was obviously better.

He had no memory of how he was adopted by the Miyano couple, and this was coupled with what he had remembered about Yang before.

——He couldn't even be sure whether it was true that he was adopted by the Miyano couple.

It is true that he has a very flexible mind, but the problem now is that his subjectivity is likely to be induced.

In this case, no matter how clever his mind is, if no one gives him advice, he will never be able to break out of the vicious circle of thinking that has induced him to do so.

Kudo raised his eyes and looked at Okiya Subaru.

If he...

No, it can't.

The black-haired boy quickly rejected this idea. In the eyes of Subaru Okiya, his every word and action would be over-interpreted.

Even though he doesn't care what others think of him, he has no interest in being misunderstood.
