Chapter 42 - Itsuki is Amazing

"Huh? Is there another new tutor coming? Is this tutor famous from somewhere?"

The rabbit ear ribbon on Yotsuba's head slightly swayed as she placed her hands on the table, staring at Ichika with a surprised expression on her face.

Miku remained silent and ate quietly.

There's no need for tutoring or anything like that.

Even though she didn't have time to talk, she still stared at Ichika.

Nino crossed her arms, the two black swallowtail butterflies on her head slightly trembling, and said mockingly, "We don't need any tutoring at all. Even if they come, they'll give up soon enough."

Miku softly added, "Nino's right, we don't need tutoring."

Ichika wagged her finger and said, "This is dad's decision. We have no choice but to comply."

After saying this, Ichika looked at Itsuki, winked, and said with a smile, "Itsuki, what do you think?"

"Hmm~"

The ahoge on Itsuki's head slightly twitched as she struggled to swallow her food. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't mind tutoring."

Among the quintuplets, the one most eager to learn and work hard was Itsuki.

"Huh?"

Ichika covered her mouth and said in surprise, "Itsuki, you secretly arranged for Kuromori-kun to be our tutor?"

"Itsuki is amazing!"

"Truly amazing!"

Ichika gave a thumbs up and said with a smile, "As expected from Itsuki, you managed to win over Kuromori-kun without saying a word. I'll give you a reward when we get back."

"Huh?"

Itsuki's ahoge suddenly stood up, her face flushed red, and she said with embarrassment and anger, "Ichika, don't say such nonsense, I didn't flirt with Kuromori-kun!"

Miku frowned, "Ichika, don't tease Itsuki."

Nino looked at Ichika with disgust, "Ichika, Itsuki is so sweet, but you're bullying her. Don't you feel guilty?"

Yotsuba placed her hands on the table, leaned forward towards Itsuki, and said seriously, "Yeah, Itsuki, it's up to you!"

"What!"

Itsuki puffed up her cheeks and said unhappily, "Why are you putting this on me? I'm not going!"

Ichika said sadly, "If Itsuki doesn't go, we'll have to accept a weird tutor. So weird that it becomes disturbing. I'm the only one falling in love with him as a sister. Even though it would be really sad and painful, I would definitely give my beloved sisters a chance to escape."

Yotsuba leaned back, shocked, "A pervert?"

Ichika nodded and said seriously, "You know, we're all very cute girls and we're quintuplets."

"I've heard." Ichika leaned in a bit and whispered, "many guys like sisters, not to mention we're identical quintuplets, which is very appealing to a lot of perverts!"

"He might take the risk. When I drink some water and fall asleep, when I wake up, my body feels sore and unbearable. In the dim room, the air becomes thick, and a strange, deep male voice is heard next to me."

Ichika pinched her throat and said in a low voice, "I've taken videos and photos of you. If you don't want them leaked..."

"That's terrifying!"

Yotsuba held her head with her hands and trembled, "No, don't say that."

Miku clenched her spoon, her face pale, and she took a deep breath, saying, "I refuse tutoring!"

Just thinking about something like that is scary. It's a nightmare.

Nino placed her hands down and unconsciously clenched her fists. She wasn't entirely confident and said, "Something like that can't really happen, right? After all, there are so many perverts, and there's five of us."

Ichika said seriously, "You know, the reason why perverts become perverts is that they're no longer human. So if you take a risk."

"It's dangerous."

"Especially Miku..." Ichika looked at Miku and said seriously, "I always feel like Miku will be the one most bullied, and maybe she'll bear the humiliation to protect her sisters."

Miku suddenly puffed up her cheeks and said angrily, "I don't know how!"

Nino took a deep breath and said, "Yeah, we should be cautious about these things. I'll tell dad when we get back that we don't need a tutor at all!"

Itsuki was eating, her cheeks slightly moving, and she said faintly, "But dad won't agree."

The quintuplets' grades were so bad that they couldn't even pass successfully. Moreover, although Ichika said it was dangerous, the truth was that the tutor hired would naturally be carefully selected, so there was almost no problem.

No one is stupid. As a father, it's impossible to allow someone of unknown origin and bad character to teach his daughters.

"Itsuki's right, dad won't agree."

Ichika cleared her throat and said, "Rather than letting a stranger teach us, it's better to let Kuromori-kun come. Didn't Itsuki say that you've made great progress recently?"

"This proves that if it's Kuromori-kun, even we can make progress. Yotsuba, what do you think?"

Yotsuba blinked, raised her hand, and said, "I agree."

Ichika looked at Miku, who hesitated for a moment, pressed the headphones to her chest, and said softly, "I don't care."

"What about Nino?"

Nino crossed her arms, looked in Haruto's direction not far away, and said, "I agree too."

Ichika showed a bright smile, looked at Itsuki, clasped her hands together, and said in a charming voice, "The vote has passed, Itsuki."

"No way!"

Itsuki was unhappy, "Everyone clearly knows Kuromori-kun, so why should I be the one?"

Ichika: "Because Itsuki is the cutest!"

Nino: "I think so too."

Miku: "Itsuki and Kuromori are the most familiar."

Yotsuba: "Please, Itsuki, if you do it, I can cook Itsuki's favorite dish tonight."

'Outrageous, you even want to bribe me with food!'

Itsuki was torn.

Actually, she also wanted to ask Haruto for help, but Haruto had already helped her a lot, so she was too embarrassed to trouble him again.

But Nino also promised to cook dinner every night for the next week.

She couldn't refuse!

If she could, Itsuki actually hoped they could pass successfully. She pursed her lips and said, "Fine, I'll talk to Kuromori-kun about this in the afternoon."

❀❀❀

In the blink of an eye, it was after school in the afternoon.

Haruto grabbed his school bag and looked at Itsuki, "I'm heading to the library first."

"Alright, Kuromori-kun, go ahead. I'll be right there."

Itsuki pulled out a meat bun and took a bite. The ahoge on her head swayed happily, and she looked very happy and content.

She was indeed a super foodie.

Haruto left quietly.

Every afternoon, Itsuki basically ate meat buns to replenish her energy. The key was that these weren't small meat buns but the large type that could fill her up!

And this was just a snack for Itsuki.

No wonder Itsuki's legs were rounder and meatier!
