Accompanied by the howling cold wind, it seems that it will completely engulf the world that has been dyed white.
"...So, let's have another small Christmas party at Chunhai's house. If you agree, please raise your hands——"
Takigawa Hikaru raised his hands and waved them continuously.
Haixing looked at her and raised his hand.
Naruse glanced at her, and Haixing subconsciously put it down, but then Takigawa Hikaru held her wrist and lifted it up.
"Now two votes agree——"
"I exercised my veto power to object - it was too troublesome. Just because I was too lazy to bother, I just gave the gift to you directly."
Naruse turned to look at the study room. Naoko couldn't put it down and was still playing with his new sewing machine.
"Naoko - someone named Takigawa is going to have a party at our house -"
She came out quickly and when she heard Takigawa Hikaru's plan, she just smiled and said, "Okay."
"Okay. Now it's three votes——"
"But our family has nothing to eat or drink, and we are completely unprepared."
"How about ordering takeout?" Hikaru Takigawa said.
"Who would come out to deliver takeout in this weather...and whether there are any stores still open is still a question." Naruse shook his head.
"Okay——"
She grabbed Haixing's hand again and said, "The party is over——"
"..."
Starfish raised his arms in confusion, and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face.
"But it's okay to let you have dinner."
Naruse glanced at her, then looked at the snow outside the window, "If you are not afraid that you will not be able to go back later."
"It doesn't matter, I will send these two beautiful ladies home safely when the time comes." Hikaru Takigawa said, holding Haixing's and Morimi's hands respectively.
Neither of them had any objections and agreed to stay.
Several people ate and drank at the party in the afternoon, but no one felt hungry at this time, and dinner was postponed to seven or eight o'clock or later.
Before that, they had nothing to do, each playing with the Christmas gifts they had just received.
In order to try out the new sewing machine, Shangzi went home in the snow and brought some fabrics.
"Let me make a bag for Hikari to store sunglasses."
"Is that okay? Okay."
"There was originally a small piece of leather. The last time I sorted it out, it felt too small. There was probably no chance of using it, so I got rid of it. It's a pity now that I think about it..."
"It doesn't matter, the fabric is also very good. I like the soft feeling."
Naruse helped carry the new sewing machine to the living room. Several people sat around the sofa, doing their own things while watching Naoko skillfully cut the fabric.
Starfish looked at it for a while, then couldn't help but take her gift box to her side and look through the various high-end hair care products inside again.
"Do you want to use it now?" Morimi said from the side.
"No." Haixing smiled sheepishly.
Morimi looked at her hair and reached out to hold a strand. The blond hair was soft and silky, flowing between her fingers.
"Now that Haixing no longer plays with those hot girls, do you still think blondes look better?"
"Hmm... Don't you think it looks good to Kazuyo?" She looked at her.
"No."
Morimi smiled at her, "Whether it's black or gold, it suits starfish very well."
"Yeah."
Naruse glanced towards the two of them, but Morimi was keenly aware of it, and he did not look away.
"How is Kindle? Is it easy to use?"
"Hmm."
She nodded and picked up the reader on her lap, "I just didn't expect Miss Song to give me this... This one should be very expensive."
"I'm not sure."
Naruse gestured to her to hand the reader over to him for a look, "But don't take it too seriously. She just gave it to her if she thought it was appropriate. She didn't consider the price, and of course she doesn't want you to mind."
"Yeah." Sen smiled and said nothing more.
Naruse took the reader and flipped through it for a while before returning it to her.
"I bought one before. But after using it for a while, I found that I still prefer the feeling of turning the pages of paper books... That reader seems to have been left in Tokyo."
"For the sake of my family's business, please continue to maintain this feeling."
Naruse smiled and turned to watch Naoko sewing glasses covers. After a while, he got up and went back to the room upstairs to put away the wallet he used before.
This was also given to him by Matsu Qianqiu.
After putting away his wallet, Naruse sat in front of the desk in a daze for a while. When he was about to go down, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened and Mori looked at him, "Are you hiding in your room alone and studying secretly?"
"...Only you would do such a thing."
She walked in and looked at the desk first.
Textbooks and notes are piled in the corner, but they are neatly stacked, obviously not put there hastily.
She looked at it for a while and asked, "Is this where Naruse usually studies?"
"Almost."
"Well...let me feel it."
Naruse was startled, "What?"
Morimi patted his chair, "I meant to let me sit here for a while."
He stood up and gave up his seat.
She sat down, put her hands on the table, and glanced slowly.
"How long will Naruse study every day?"
"It depends on the situation."
"What's going on?"
"If you have to take an exam, study a little longer. During normal times, just...study a little bit."
Morimi turned to look at him, "What is the specific state of serious study before the exam that Naruse mentioned?"
"Read the book and do the questions."
"Isn't that just like me?"
Naruse was helpless, "What else can I do?"
She didn't speak and looked at the notebooks stacked on the corner of the table.
"Can I watch."
"Please."
Morimi brought all the notebooks in front of him and looked through them one by one.
"..."
The content of the notes is very detailed, and nothing that should be memorized in class is omitted. It is what an "honor student's notebook" should look like, but it is nothing more than that, and there is nothing special about it.
Naruse watched the change in her expression from the side, "Are you expecting something?"
She put down her notes and took a while before answering.
"I'm looking for evidence that proves that Naruse's excellent performance is due to mastering a unique and efficient learning method... rather than because of so-called talent."
"Then have you found it?"
She pursed her lower lip and remained silent for a while before speaking.
"Naruse is actually an alien."
"Huh?...Well, you discovered it."
"What is your purpose for coming to Earth?"
"Get mad at those geniuses who are actually very talented, but are always prone to self-doubt. Then you people on earth will have no future." Reading 溂
"..."
Morimi turned around and glared at him, but with a faint smile on his lips.
"People on Earth are probably not as fragile as you think."
"Really? Then when I return to my home planet next time, I will apply to directly destroy the earth."
She still laughed, turned around and lay down on the desk again, sighing softly.
"What are you talking about...like a fool."
Her eyes wandered and fell on the bookshelf next to her.
"I haven't been here for half a year, and there are a lot of books on the bookshelf."
"I bought them all from your bookstore."
"Thank you for your patronage."
Naruse walked over and picked a book on the bookshelf that he had read a long time ago, intending to use it to pass the time.
"Go on down. Or do you also want to find a book to read? It's free."
"I... no, let me stay alone for a while."
Morijian half-raised his body and then lay down again.
"Don't worry, I won't mess with your things, whether they are on the desk or hidden under the bed."
"There's nothing under the bed." Naruse shook his head and got off first.
Bang, close the door.
Morimi also withdrew his gaze, his gaze fell on his notebook and gradually diverged.
