"I thought Ye Yue would be that kind of special...serious girl."

Katase Yezuki's indifferent face raised his eyebrows slightly, and he seemed a little unhappy.

"Well... I don't mean anything, you know." Rintaro explained a little: "But, I'd better just call me next time, and don't just go through the window or something."

Rintaro took out his cell phone and sent an email to Katase Seri: "I told him that I will go directly to the department after school this afternoon. Ye Yue, are you still going up? Has Ye Yue had lunch? If you haven't eaten yet, it's better to go back as soon as possible, and there is not much rest time."

"Go. I know." Katase Hatsuki nodded, answered two questions respectively, and then turned around. Rintaro was about to turn back and continue to have lunch, and then heard Katase Hatsuki's words: "Sakuratune."

"Hmm?" Rintaro looked at her in confusion.

"...No, nothing. Goodbye." Katase Hatsuki seemed to have changed her mind temporarily. She didn't say anything and just walked away like that. Rintaro, who left a puzzled look at her walking to the window where Katase Seori was. After looking left and right, she flipped in quickly, like an action game looking through obstacles.

After lunch, Rintaro returned to the classroom. The next two classes were spent by the teacher's praise of himself and criticism of Kudo and others. After school in the afternoon, Rintaro packed up his own things and slowly headed to his destination.

She didn't have to wait for Katase Seri at the stairs on the first floor. She would come up with her sister. Rintaro went directly to the office, turned on the light, sat down in her position, and took her own test papers and sorted out her own ideas and order for Katase Seri to do the questions. She could use it when she reviewed it later.

After waiting for a few minutes, Rintaro waited for the Katase sisters.

"Good afternoon, Sakura Tin." Before the door opened, Katase Seri's voice came in first, but Katase Seri didn't seem to be saying hello happily, but instead bulged his mouth and walked in, complaining: "Sakura Tin actually ran to the playground for lunch and didn't call me, it was too much."

"I always eat outside when the weather is good." Rintaro defended himself: "And, it should be happier to have dinner with my sister than to outsiders like me, right?"

"Then..." Katase Seri stopped as soon as she opened her mouth, because she found out that simply giving yes or no answers here seemed not a good answer: "This is not what this matter understands."

Katase Yezuki patted his sister's shoulder: "Anyway, sit down first."

Rintaro looked at Katase Hazuki with gratitude, then remembered something, found the gift he had been forced to buy yesterday in his schoolbag, and placed it on the table: "For, this is a gift to Seri."

"Ah!" Katase Seri became happy when she saw the gift, but her good tutoring made her sit up straight instead of making any rude moves. Then she took out a gift box from her schoolbag and put it on the table: "This, this is a gift to Sakura Ting! Thank you for your care and help for the past half month!"

Rintaro did not pretentiously, but nodded, and then took the gift box. Because it was something that he had already known and gave each other gifts, there was no need to pretentiously. If he refused here, it would be just to make Katase Seri reject his gift.

Rintaro put the gift box next to him and thought about going back and opening it. As a result, Katase Seri, who was sitting next to him, took the box and opened it up directly. His true nature made Rintaro a little stupid, and Katase Hazuki next to him seemed to shake his head slightly.

Katase Seri opened the gift box and found a cup inside. He took it out and placed it on the table: "What a beautiful cup. But I already have a cup at home to use. Where should I put this?"

"You can keep it for later," Rintaro said.

Katase Seri nodded and looked at Rintaro again: "Don't Sakura Ting take a look? Compared to the gifts I gave were taken back and secretly opened, I am more looking forward to seeing what expressions would be like after seeing others receive their own gifts."

"Since you said that..." Rintaro glanced at the gift box and finally picked it up. Unlike Rintaro's gift box with a cup, the packaging box used by Katase Seri was hard. After wrapping it with colored paper, it was tied up with ribbons, which looked more refined.

Rintaro took apart the ribbon and the colored paper spread out by itself, revealing the true appearance of the gift - this is a box. At first glance, Rintaro thought it would be something like a music box, but after Rintaro opened the box, a miniature landscape crystal ball appeared in front of Rintaro.

Inside the crystal ball is a tree and a cherry blossom tree. This tree is fixed inside the crystal ball, and there are some other scenery sticking to the side that is like rockery and fake ponds - a garden with cherry blossoms. Rintaro can roughly understand this meaning.

...

"Does Sakuratus like this gift?" Katase Seri seemed to have an answer, but she still asked deliberately. There was a proud expression on her face.

"...It's really amazing. I'm a little tempted to get the cup back and buy a more suitable gift again." Rintaro looked at the miniature landscape crystal ball, then looked at Katase Seri.

"Hehe~ I knew Sakura Ting would definitely like this. I was shopping in the mall and didn't know what to buy, but I saw this crystal ball. At that time, I thought Sakura Ting would definitely be suitable for this gift, so I decided to buy it." Katase Seri's face was like "I'm amazing, right? Come and praise me" and looked particularly cute.

Rintaro suddenly realized that this seemed to be the first gift he had received since he came here. It felt bad, so it would be better to say it was pretty good.

Rintaro feels that he must give greater efforts and rewards for this trust.

"Okay." Rintaro made a voice: "Since that's the case, let's double your homework today."

What Katase Hideri needs most now is practice. Only a lot of practice can improve her grades, which is also the ultimate goal of her learning with herself. In order to achieve this goal, Rintaro must respond to her.

Katase's smile was petrified as if it was caught by Medusa's gaze.
