Chapter 619 - 619: What's with this little girl...
As Mobius's voice rang out from inside the room, Kaito and the others outside immediately fell silent, all of them looking toward the room in that instant."You'd better hurry up and make a decision, Kaito. You can't just let Mobius keep using your room—and she's not even wearing any clothes. It wouldn't be good if word of this got out." At this point Chizuko was once again urging Kaito to make up his mind quickly.
"Then it'd definitely be Miko who spread the word—otherwise how could anyone else possibly know about this?"
To Miko's words, Wendy muttered this in reply.
Right after, Kaito spoke: "Mm, then I'll head back in."
The moment he finished speaking, Kaito started walking toward his own room, and added a line as well: "I'm coming in now, Mobius."
No response came from inside the room, but Kaito still opened the door and walked in—the thing that had happened earlier when Miko tried to go in did not happen to Kaito.
"Why isn't he out yet? Nothing's gone wrong, has it?" Even though Kaito hadn't been inside for long, Miko was already saying this.
There was nothing for it—right now she was truly curious about the situation inside the room.
"He only just went in..."
Glancing at Miko, Lumine looked a little speechless—after all, Kaito had hardly been inside any time at all.
Of course, she too was curious about what they were doing right now.
Hm?
What is Wendy up to?
At that moment Lumine suddenly saw Wendy carefully making her way over to the room's door, then quickly pressing her ear against it to eavesdrop on what was happening inside.
It had to be said, this sight startled both Lumine and Miko, who were present—they'd never expected Wendy to do something like this.
Afterward, following Wendy's example, Miko also crept up to the doorway and pressed her ear against it.
In any case, it was Wendy who'd done it first, so if they were caught later, she'd just say she'd seen Wendy do it and that was why she did the same.
These two...
Still standing where she was, Lumine never expected that both Miko and Wendy would start doing this, which got Lumine thinking along those same lines too.
But now the doorway was taken up by Miko and Wendy, so even if she wanted to eavesdrop, she couldn't.
There was no helping it—the space at the room's door really wasn't very big.
But even so, she could still walk over and stand a little farther back to see whether she could catch anything.
And so the three of them all crowded in front of the doorway, which looked rather odd.
"Wendy, did you hear anything?" At this moment Miko, for once, called Wendy by name—only in a very small voice.
Because she really hadn't heard a thing, she wanted to ask Wendy whether she'd heard anything.
After all, Wendy was more capable than her, so she ought to be able to hear something.
In response, Wendy, who still had her ear pressed to the door, slowly shook her head.
Looks like she didn't hear anything either...
Silently watching the two of them from behind, Lumine couldn't help thinking this.
Since the two in front hadn't heard anything, she, standing behind them, could hear even less.
"How can it be that nothing can be heard at all?"
At this point Miko couldn't help saying this, her voice still very small.
"Kaito's probably already figured out what we're doing." Lumine voiced her own guess.
No matter how you looked at it, under normal circumstances it would be impossible not to hear any sound from inside—this was definitely because Kaito had done something to make it so.
Of course, it could also have been Mobius's doing. In any case, the situation now was that they couldn't hear a single sound from inside, which was obviously not normal.
"Then should we just barge straight in?" After continuing to listen with her ear pressed against the door for a while longer, Wendy asked everyone present.
"If you want to barge in, then go ahead—I'm not stopping you." Although she was surprised by this idea of Wendy's, Miko did indeed want to see what would happen if Wendy did such a thing.
Of course, what she wanted to know even more was just what Kaito was doing in there, and why not a single sound was coming out.
"That's not a good idea, is it? I feel like Kaito would get angry."
Lumine thought this idea of Wendy's wouldn't do—it might well make Kaito angry.
Since they couldn't hear any sound coming out now, then they should just wait. Perhaps Kaito was simply telling Mobius some rather secret things.
"Fine, then."
Looking at Miko and then at Lumine, Wendy seemed a little resigned.
Why is this little brat acting like this...
I've never seen her act this way toward me or Lumine before...
Watching Wendy behave like this, Miko couldn't help being very curious about what was going on with Wendy.
It was obvious that, right now, Wendy didn't seem to like Mobius very much.
Could this be because of that matter Wendy had mentioned earlier, about Mobius having hit her?
Otherwise, Miko really couldn't make sense of the situation.
Although she could ask directly, she figured she most likely wouldn't get anything out of her.
After all, this little brat never said much of anything.
If she'd wanted to talk about it, she would surely already have been griping about it to her and Lumine.
But beyond this, Miko also wanted to know what on earth Kaito was up to in there, and why he still wasn't coming out.
Could he be making some sort of arrangement with Mobius?
Like, what she couldn't do if she stayed.
Creak——
Just then, the door finally opened.
Mobius?
Looking at the person who walked out first, Miko hadn't expected it to be her.
Looking at Mobius, Miko could sense that her mood seemed to be quite good.
And then, right after, Kaito walked out as well.
So you finally deigned to come out...
Watching the two of them walk out one after the other, Miko thought this with some displeasure.
It was just that Mobius was still right there beside them, so she couldn't very well ask so directly.
But even so, what needed to be asked still had to be asked.
"Kai, what were you two doing in there? How come there wasn't a single sound?"
Before Miko could ask anything, Wendy had already spoken up and asked first.
Yeah...
What were they doing?
There really wasn't a single sound.
Silently thinking this to herself, Miko waited for Kaito's answer.
Since Wendy had already asked, there was no need for her to ask again.
Of course, when she was alone with Kaito later, she would still ask once more—after all, right now she had the feeling that Kaito definitely wouldn't tell them everything.
"It was nothing, really—just telling Mobius a few things."
Kaito answered quickly and concisely.
"What's a little squirt doing knowing so much? Hurry up and go play outside." At this point Mobius waved her hand at Wendy, as though impatiently telling her to go out and play.
"You snake spirit..."
"All right, that's enough, both of you." Before Wendy could finish her words, Kaito had already spoken up.
Snake spirit?
Come to think of it, Mobius really does look a bit like one...
Never expecting Wendy to address Mobius that way, Miko was stunned for a moment too.
But she did indeed feel that Mobius gave off a somewhat snake-like impression—around the eyes, for instance.
