Ryuji didn't really care about the murderer.
Chiba City was more or less his territory, if someone was troublesome, he might take action to solve it.
"It's too late, let's give it a go," Yukino said to Ryuji.
"The president is right!" Sakura nodded earnestly.
Ryuji looked at Yukino, the girl showed a gentle smile, and said understandingly: "Don't worry about what we say, Mash is here after all."
Mash patted her chest and promised: "Mash Kyrielight will definitely protect Yukino Senpai's and Mashiro safety!"
Ryuji smiled and patted Mash's head: "Don't be so serious, I never doubted Mash!"
"Senpai..." Mash blushed a little, not daring to look at Ryuji.
...
Ryuji sent Sakura home with Yuigahama.
"It's fine here, just stop here," Sakura said to Ryuji and Yuigahama at the bus stop.
"Okay." Ryuji nodded.
Yuigahama breathed a sigh of relief.
She had also come here in the beginning because she was worried about what Sakura would do to Ryuji, and of course it was good for Sakura to go.
"Then I wish you both a happy date." Sakura said with a smile, then the bus doors closed and it sped off into the distance.
"D-Date?!" Yuigahama then noticed, and after thinking about it carefully, the two of them were now alone, wasn't that a date!
"Ryu-kun..." Yuigahama looked at Ryuji expectantly.
Ryuji lightly slapped Yuigahama on the head and said without hesitation: "Reject! Your mom has already called to remind you."
"But my mom said I shouldn't be home so early!"
"...You probably misunderstood 'early'!" Ryuji looked at the time, it was almost 10 p.m. For high school students who had to go to class tomorrow, it really couldn't be described as early.
"Okay..."
Yuigahama's house was near the station, and Ryuji brought her downstairs.
"Ryu-kun, wait for me!" Yuigahama said to Ryuji, and ran home.
"What is she doing?" Ryuuji was a little confused.
Immediately, Yuigahama ran over with a small bag.
"It's a Christmas present!"
Ryuji opened bag, and there was a cake inside.
"How you love cake." Ryuji said helplessly.
Since that first meeting, Yuigahama seemed to have developed a deep rapport with cake. After that, whatever cooking she does, she can't do without cake!
Yuigahama said shyly, "Because the only thing I can make now are cakes."
Even though Yuigahama was very interested in cooking now, the "idiot" attribute had not disappeared.
From this point of view, the cake she gave Ryuji was at least commendable in appearance.
"Ryu-kun hurry and try!" Yuigahama's small eyes flashed with hope.
Ryuji took the cake and sent it to his mouth.
Slightly bitter, obviously long roasted.
"It's fine, better than before."
Indeed, Yuigahama's cake was much better than before.
"Really? Very good!" Yuigahama smiled, and nothing was more satisfying than an affirmation from someone she liked.
"However, isn't Christmas tomorrow? Why give it to me now?" Ryuji asked.
Yuigahama hesitated: "Isn't it a coincidence, if I gave it to you at school, I would be embarrassed."
"Is that so?" Ryuji didn't think too much, just took it like this.
Yuigahama heaved a sigh of relief, Ryuji didn't see the hint.
In fact, she had been selfish in giving presents today, even if, she wanted to walk ahead of Yukino!
"I received your presents. As a present in return, this is for you." Ryuji pretended to be looking in his pocket but actually he took out the present from the pocket dimension.
"What's this?" Yuigahama took the small box that Ryuji handed over to her, opened it, and was so excited she couldn't even speak!
"Ring?!" Yuigahama was so excited that she was almost speechless: "Could it be a marriage proposal?!"
"No..." Ryuji just wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Yuigahama who was in a strange state.
"No, it can't be done, we haven't graduated yet, we should at least wait until we get married!" Yuigahama said while blushing.
Ryuji: "😐"
Ryuji was a bit helpless, why do they always think of that when giving rings to girls!
It's just a ring, the reaction is too strong!
"...Actually, you misunderstood." Ryuji viciously broke Yuigahama's illusion.
"I didn't mean to propose. The ring is just an ordinary accessory."
"Huh..." Yuigahama was petrified on the spot.
