Kato Megumi's recollection carried a sweet feeling.
"The legendary fateful meeting!"
Yukima Azuma blinked at Kato Megumi.
"For me, the day Azuma-san transferred here was truly a fateful meeting."
The corner of Kato Megumi's mouth slightly curved up.
The two of them admired the scenery for a while, then looked away.
After walking down the street for a while, they reached Kato's house.
"Are Megumi's parents home?"
As he asked, Yukima Azuma rummaged through the backpack he was carrying.
He had deliberately brought the bag today. Inside were some gifts prepared for meeting the parents.
For example, canned tea, alcohol, and some beautiful jewelry.
Speaking of which, some of these were bought by Miyamizu Mitsuha.
The rose he had just conjured using "magic" to give to Kato Megumi was also something he had prepared earlier in the bag.
"They're not here. Azuma-san doesn't need to worry, my parents are at the company during the day."
Kato Megumi smiled slyly beside him.
Upon hearing this, Yukima Azuma zipped up his bag.
Umu, well then, next time.
Meeting the parents didn't have to be rushed.
Kato Megumi took the key and opened the door to her house.
She then pulled Yukima Azuma inside.
From the shoe rack, Kato Megumi took out a brand-new pair of indoor slippers that had been prepared in advance and handed them to Yukima Azuma.
Yukima Azuma changed into the slippers and went into the living room with Kato Megumi.
Sure enough, there was no one home.
Kato Megumi pressed him to sit on the sofa.
Then, she went into the kitchen to prepare tea.
Yukima Azuma sat on the sofa, curiously looking around, when he suddenly remembered something and asked:
"Megumi's parents aren't home, so what about your sister? Isn't she supposed to be on break at home recently?"
At that moment, Kato Megumi came out of the kitchen with the tea.
As she handed the cup of tea to Yukima Azuma, she replied:
"She said yesterday that she had a class reunion today and won't be back until the evening."
"She definitely isn't home right now. Okay, Azuma-san, just sit here and wait for me for a bit, I'm going to make cookies."
Hearing this, Yukima Azuma smiled and shook his head.
"You're making them right now?"
"I was supposed to make them yesterday, but you were causing trouble, Azuma-san!"
Yesterday, Kato Megumi had come to Toyogasaki to get the cookbook she had left in her desk drawer.
She had brought it to school last time and flipped through it during break.
As a result, she had forgotten to bring it back.
"Umu, I feel really guilty. Let me help out as compensation?"
"Azuma-san, just sit quietly. I'll make it myself. What's the point of you helping?"
The two of them chatted lively in the living room.
But neither of them knew that on the other side of the hall
The door to a room quietly cracked open a small gap.
Kato Hiromi peeked her head out, sneaking a glance.
At first, she really had planned to go to the class reunion at university.
She was about to graduate this year, and everyone had arranged to meet up before graduation.
However, Kato Megumi hadn't returned home last night.
When she woke up, no one was home.
Normally, in the morning, Kato Megumi would wake Kato Hiromi up for breakfast.
So today, Kato Hiromi hadn't set an alarm.
As a result, she had slept straight through until now.
She definitely had skipped the class reunion.
But that wasn't the main point.
The main point was
Kato Hiromi listened to the cheerful conversation in the living room.
She felt it was best to pretend she wasn't home.
With her younger sister's personality, she knew for sure that before she was completely certain of her feelings, Megumi wouldn't bring anyone home.
Moreover, after hearing that exchange
The level of intimacy was already too much.
Knowing her sister well, Kato Hiromi understood that Kato Megumi, when talking to ordinary friends, was much more careful with her expressions.
But when talking to the boy she brought home, her tone was overly natural.
It was even more comfortable than when talking to her own sister.
It was like an old married couple who had been together for many years.
She stuck her head out to peek.
But she really couldn't see the situation from the sofa.
Kato Hiromi quietly closed the door to her room.
She then went to the window of her room.
If she could, she really wanted to climb out and go sit at the family restaurant nearby for a while.
But unfortunately
Even though her room was on the first floor,
There was a burglar-proof mesh outside the window.
The gap was only wide enough for a child to squeeze through.
She tried but couldn't.
Kato Hiromi reluctantly sat back down on the edge of the bed and sighed.
Well then, she would just stay in her room.
Once they left, she would go out and pretend she had just come home.
As someone with experience,
Kato Hiromi knew all too well that at times like this, her sister absolutely didn't want to be disturbed.
However, after sitting for a while
Kato Hiromi's stomach started growling loudly.
Thinking about having a big meal out today,
She had eaten very little last night.
And she hadn't eaten anything this morning.
Now, it was almost noon.
At that moment, from the crack in the door, the sweet scent of cookies wafted into the room.
Kato Hiromi felt entranced and collapsed onto the bed.
This was torture!
She endured for a while.
Finally, Kato Hiromi couldn't stand the growling hunger anymore.
She quietly sneaked to the door again.
She opened it a little, peeking outside.
She thought that her sister had brought a guy home.
They couldn't just be hanging out in the living room, right?
Either they had gone outside with the cookies, or they had gone to Kato Megumi's room.
Whichever it was,
Once they were distracted, she would seize the chance to sneak out first.
She needed to eat, after all.
At that moment
Kato Hiromi suddenly saw, behind the sofa, a young man stand up.
She finally got a clear view of his appearance.
He was definitely over 1.8 meters tall, which was quite a striking height in Japan.
He was wearing only a simple white t-shirt and black shorts, but his figure suited the outfit perfectly, leaving a great impression.
His looks were undeniable
His skin was so smooth that even a girl like Kato Hiromi would envy him. Adding to that were his sharp, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, making him extremely handsome.
Having seen him clearly, Kato Hiromi couldn't help but gasp.
Did her sister really bring her boyfriend home?
Was he not just some male host hired to come home with her?!
The thought flashed in her mind but was immediately dismissed.
After all, Megumi wasn't the type of girl like that.
Moreover, this boy would be wasting his talents if he were a host.
"Done, try it!"
"So it's Pocky!"
"Umu, Azuma-san gave me a box last time, so I wanted to try making it myself."
"Hmmm, it looks good, but these cookies... if I were eating them alone, they wouldn't be much fun."
The conversation between the two of them reached Kato Hiromi's ears.
Soon after, she saw her younger sisterwho was nibbling on a Pocky stickmove closer to the guy.
Without hesitation, he bit the other end of the stick.
The distance between them gradually shortened with each piece of the biscuit being "devoured."
Finally, as expectedtheir lips completely met.
Kato Hiromi's face turned a bit warm.
She quietly pulled her head back into the room.
"My sister is being too forward... No, looking at this, it must be mutual feelings."
"But calling this eating a biscuit? Ridiculous!"
She mumbled in dissatisfaction.
A few seconds later, she couldn't help but peek her head out again.
The resultthose two still hadn't separated.
Kato Hiromi quickly retracted.
This time, her face turned a little red.
It's been too long!
Not to mention eating Pocky, even a normal kiss probably wouldn't last this long, right?
Another twenty seconds later, Kato Hiromi stuck her head out for the third time.
Still not done?!
This time, she decided to wait a full forty seconds.
Finally, when she peeked out for the fourth time
The two of them finally pulled apart.
Moreover, they were holding hands, walking up the stairs, seemingly heading for Kato Megumi's room.
Kato Hiromi sighed in relief, quietly sneaking out of the room.
As she passed the kitchen
She grabbed two Pocky sticks, quickly chewing them down.
"Just three seconds!"
She muttered with frustration, then rushed out the door, trying to open it as quietly as possible and slip outside.
.....
On the other side
Yukima Azuma was being pulled up the stairs by Kato Megumi.
They went straight to her room's door.
"This is the first time a boy has been in my room," Megumi whispered.
Azuma wasn't nervous at first, but after hearing this, he felt a little anxious.
What would Megumi's room be like?
Various images of a cute room appeared in Azuma's mind.
But soon, those images started to become more ordinary.
Megumi opened the door.
The scene that greeted his eyes was almost exactly what he had imagined.
"Just as I thought, it's Megumi's style, a very ordinary girl's room."
"There's no helping it, I'm just a normal girl."
"But if you look closely, there are many details that are distinctly Megumi."
"Really?"
"Small details that touch the heart, only noticeable when you observe carefullyjust like Megumi."
Kato Megumi's cheeks involuntarily flushed.
She pulled Azuma into the room.
Before he could observe everything
He saw Megumi sit on the edge of the bed and gently pat the empty space beside her.
Azuma instinctively swallowed.
This action... is it a hint?
No matter how you think about it, it can only be that.
Azuma stepped forward and sat next to Megumi.
Before he could say anything
He was pulled down by Megumi, and they both fell onto the bed, bathed in the soft pink hue of a girl's room.
Megumi took the initiative to kiss him.
Then, there was the sound of fabric rubbing.
Beside the bed.
On Kato Megumi's desk.
In the pencil holder, there was a yellow bamboo card.
The Relationship Fortune Telling: Daikatsu!
"Day and night, thinking of it, with a jewel in hand; hearts and minds in mutual understanding, wisdom leads to destiny."

Chapter 161: See you again after three years, My Imouto
"The lovers entangled in bed at night, a pear tree crushes the begonia."
Kato Megumi, of course, had made up her mind.
She was the type of person who wasn't good at hiding her feelings.
After she had clearly understood Yukima Azuma's attitude today
If she couldn't be apart from him, then she should boldly claim him, decisively keep him by her side.
Of course, there was still some shyness.
But compared to the love that was deeply ingrained in her bones
A little girl's embarrassment meant nothing.
By the time the evening light had faded outside the window
Kato Megumi pushed Azuma out of her house.
Although she really wanted to stay wrapped up with him
At this moment, she needed to calm down a little.
After sending Yukima Azuma away, Kato Megumi leisurely returned to the living room.
On her fair and beautiful face, there were still traces of tears, and a hint of blush that hadn't faded.
No one knew what was going through her mind
Her expression constantly changed.
It started with bashfulness, then joy, happiness, and finally, a gentle reluctance.
Passing by the kitchen, Kato Megumi suddenly stopped.
Why were two Pocky sticks missing from the plate?
She stepped in and carefully counted again.
Sure enough, two sticks were missing.
She had made a total of thirty sticks.
Yukima Azuma took ten.
The two of them had eaten one.
But now, only seventeen were left.
Kato Megumi glanced toward her sister's room.
Immediately, her cheeks turned bright red.
She set the box of cookies down,
Then quickly ran upstairs, back to her room to clean up the "mess."
.....
Evening.
When Kato Hiromi returned from outside
She saw her younger sister sitting on the sofa in the living room, her expression somewhat dark?
"Sis, were you home this morning?"
Kato Megumi asked, her tone sounding light.
But for some reason, there was a hint of a frightening gloom in it.
"No, I went to a class reunion early this morning!"
Kato Hiromi immediately shook her head in denial without thinking.
Upon hearing this, Kato Megumi simply responded with an "oh."
Then, she turned and went into the kitchen. Not long after, she brought out two portions of dinner.
"Come eat dinner."
Kato Megumi called.
Kato Hiromi hesitated for a moment.
If she hadn't quickly denied it earlier
Would there still be any dinner left?
.....
Another day passed just like that.
The days that followed
After Miyamizu Mitsuha swapped with Yukima Azuma, thanks to Kato Megumi's help, everything went very smoothly, with no more incidents.
As for Yukima Azuma
His plan was also progressing steadily, step by step.
Days passed without anything noteworthy.
On days of identity swaps, Yukima Azuma would mostly run over to Suou's house.
He stayed with Suou Yuki
Telling stories, writing drafts, and cooking.
Time just passed like that.
The first volume of Harry Potter, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, published by Suou Yuki, began to create a stir.
Although there was no grand promotional campaign initially
The sales didn't break any records.
But just relying on the quality of the story
The magical fever started to spread across Japan.
Since it was a serious novel and not a light novel, it leaning more toward Western literature
After Yukima Azuma solved the translation issues, the export process also went smoothly.
