After the show ended, it was already late at night when I got home.

I had just finished washing up at the fifth watch and was sitting cross-legged on the sofa wiping my hair when I got a call from Hashimoto.

"Hey, Nanamin."

Nowadays, I am becoming more and more familiar with the nickname Wu Geng. Although Nanamin, Maiyang, Maimai, and Isa, the seniors in life are not as casual as Xiao Feiniao and the others, they have removed the word "mulberry".

Well, there are really not many people in the group who are called like that at her age. Xiao Feiniao is one of them.

"Shixiao-chan, what's going on with you here?"

"ah?"

"I said your brother didn't agree to take Xiaofeng to Beijing, right?"

Oh, so that’s what I’m talking about. I went straight to the topic as soon as I started talking, and I almost didn’t understand it.

She pushed open the sliding door of the balcony, and a cold wind rushed in. She shivered at five o'clock, and hurried back to put on a coat.

"No, I asked my brother not to agree yet. I mainly want to contact you to find out what the situation is." He stood on the balcony at five o'clock and tightened the collar of his coat.

"That's good," the person on the other end was obviously relieved, "I was afraid that Shixiao-chan would use this to mess around after he agreed. But it's a good thing he was able to find your brother."

"My brother has a big mouth and is very popular in school. He even held an event before to mobilize all the teachers and students in the school to buy the new items on sale. He is well known in the community." Wu Genghe did more than this.

In one incident, when her father was not at home, the school teacher even directly approached her as the older sister. In the past, many things happened at midnight to help her younger brother wipe his butt.

"So what's going on?" Wu Geng asked, "Is there any reason why your brother wants to come to Tokyo to study? Ah, you don't have to tell me if it's inconvenient."

There was silence for a while, and then she spoke again quickly, "Well... it's not inconvenient," she said, "My brother has been a follower since he was a child. When I was going to Beijing to study at university, he cried and clamored to come with me.

I was so annoyed that I couldn't help it, so I lied to him and told him to wait until he entered high school. Unexpectedly, he seemed to have changed his temper after that, and stopped participating in clubs. When he returned home, he would study in his room. He just mentioned this to me not long ago.

Regarding the matter, I said that I would wait until you were admitted to a university in Tokyo before coming here... and then we started to quarrel."

"Nanamin, you are quite good at procrastination..."

"Huh? What did you say?"

"No, you heard it wrong, it was a rumor. So Nanamin, what are you going to do? You have found my brother, he should have made a lot of determination. Personally, I don't think it is good to refuse directly. After all, you have already found me.

I promised."

"I have a headache too." There was a sound of clothing being rubbed. Wu Geng guessed that Hashimoto was huddled in the corner of the sofa at the moment, his head resting on his knees and worrying.

"My mother had the same idea as me, saying we would wait until he went to college, but she was probably quite opposed to it. She didn't talk to me for several days before I went to Beijing."

It’s not easy to comment on other people’s housework, but she vaguely feels that Hashimoto’s younger brother’s current situation may be somewhat similar to Hashimoto’s before going to Beijing. Of course, she just feels that way, and she doesn’t know the specific situation. But.

Anyone would feel aggrieved if something with high expectations is delayed in the end, right?

Although Hashimoto often makes jokes about his younger brother on the show, he doesn't often mention it even if the relationship is not good. What's more, the scene played by Hashimoto's younger brother about going to Beijing to find his sister, adding a little detail is enough to make a low-cost film.

A sibling relationship movie.

"How about you guys sit down and have a good talk?" Wu Geng suggested, "Even if Xiaohe doesn't agree, as long as your brother doesn't give up, he will still think of other ways to achieve his goal. If you catch up with a senior friend of yours in Tokyo,

A line, maybe more dangerous." Just like her silly brother.

"..." Hashimoto pondered for a long time, and it could be felt that he was considering it very seriously.

"There's no need to be too hasty. There's still some time before the high school entrance exam. It's best for both parties to calm down and talk."

"At work..." Hashimoto hesitated.

"There will be a period of free time after the New Year. If Nanamin doesn't have time to go back, just ask your brother to come over. Now that we are free during the winter vacation, my brother wants to come here to visit first, so we just happen to be together."

"I feel...it's quite troublesome for you, Shixiao-chan."

Wu Geng was the first time I heard Hashimoto speak in this tone. It was a pity that I couldn't face her face to face and couldn't see her expression. In my memory, Hashimoto rarely asked for help from others.

"It's okay. If Nanamin and your brother really come to Tokyo to attend high school, they might be able to become partners."

He let out a long sigh, "I hope it won't turn into that situation."

After the call ended, Wu Geng shrank her neck. After half an hour of cold wind blowing outside, her hair was not dry yet. She yawned and said "It's so cold, so cold" and hid in the living room.

Even if the air conditioner is turned on in the room, the window will be opened a small crack at midnight. I don’t know if it is a psychological effect. If the door and window of the room are closed, even if the humidifier is turned on, she still feels that the air is dry and lifeless.

There are things floating around that cannot be driven away by waving your hands.

The humidifier was given to her by Nishino. It was shaped like a whale and had a hazy blue light when the switch on the top was pressed twice.

Nishino told her that he had a brother, and he didn't shy away from talking about it occasionally. It seemed that they got along well with him.

Although my younger brother is naughty, he still respects his older sister.

When Wu Geng was a child, he didn't like to talk much and had a dull personality. Even so, his younger brother was willing to follow his sister. When going to the park to play, Wu Geng liked to sit on the swing and read a book, while his younger brother played with the sand on the dunes and piled up all kinds of things that looked strange.

It's weird, I occasionally look back to see if my sister has left.

Oddly enough, I didn’t have many friends at that time, and even though my younger brother rarely played with the children in the park, many children would greet him and invite him to play games every time he showed up.

The reason why my brother gave me that weird dumbbell gift was because I was worried that my sister would be bullied at school, so I gave it to her to exercise. Although it was left in the bedroom to gather dust most of the time.

Hashimoto's family background is not very good, everyone knows it to some extent. No one will ask about the details without understanding the atmosphere. On the contrary, Takayama often wears special-priced private clothes and takes part of the snacks in the break room while working, but her family background is not very good.

It doesn't look like you are very poor, there has been no famine in these years, it doesn't look like you are crazy about poverty and scared. It's a mystery.

I sent a message to Arisugawa in the fifth hour. I thought the other party might have fallen asleep, but I didn't expect to receive a reply not long after.

There is indeed a few days of rest after the new year. I also sent news about Hashimoto’s younger brother. I just talked about it with Hashimoto on the phone. Now Arisikawa feels a bit like Nogizaka’s general manager, both in terms of work

Everything in life can play a big role. Strictly speaking, it feels like a combination of housekeeper and nanny.

We are all girls and similar in age, so naturally we can talk more easily than the staff.

Don't tell me, Arisukawa Yui has good looks and figure, so she doesn't feel out of place among the members, and she feels like she is on the same level as Shiraishi.

Arisukawa quickly replied that regarding Hashimoto's brother, she would be responsible for arranging a time to meet. It would be like a meeting between the two heads of state.
