Cold sweat ran down my back.

As Shine said, rather than the two of them doing something, Prin just made her underwear wet.

This brief silence felt long.

“That…”

“That?”

“I think Prince peed himself…”

“This?”

Shine twitched her eyebrows at my words and spread out the piece of cloth she was holding in her hand.

The pure white cloth was thin and obviously wet, but it didn’t look like urine stains.

A gaze that has lost its way floats through the air.

With my head spinning and my breathing becoming short, I couldn’t meet Shine’s gaze.

Like a wife caught cheating, she was crouching down and busy checking Shine’s expression.

“Then what is Prin wearing now?”

Shine threw aside the panties she was holding in her hand and tossed aside the hem of Prin’s skirt that was holding her body back.

The skirt covering her pure white legs fluttered, revealing Prin’s panties.

“Teddy bear…?”

Prin wasn’t embarrassed even though her skirt had ridden up and her teddy bear panties were exposed.

Rather, he tilted his head as if to ask what the problem was and looked down at me.

“Isn’t this Jeff’s?”

“Yes, that’s right. It’s Jeff’s underwear.”

At Prin’s answer, Shine’s gaze turned to me.

I lowered my head and mumbled.

I just gave my insides to a cat that threw away my underwear, so why do I have to be so careful?

Shine, who had been looking at me for a while, let out a deep sigh and opened her mouth.

“Get out of my way for now.”

“Ugh…”

At Shine’s words, she descends from his body.

She got up from the floor, dusted herself off, and approached Prin, who was standing there blankly.

Prin looked up at Shine with a bright smile like a cat welcoming its owner.

Did you feel something at that sight?

Shine, who had been thinking with her arms crossed, said as if she had no choice.

“Princess.”

“Huh?”

“That’s okay because Jeff has never worn it.”

When you say you’ll let it slide because I’ve never worn it, does that mean you wouldn’t let it slide if I borrowed the underwear I normally wear?

I tilted my head at her words.

Because I couldn’t quite understand what the difference was between old and new underwear, and what she meant by “looking after”.

Prince also tilted his head with a dumbfounded expression, as if he didn’t understand what Shine was saying.

I left the two of them alone and started looking for the panties that Shine had thrown away.

But, since it’s Prince’s underwear, wouldn’t it be a bit too much to just throw it away?

As I was looking around with my head down, I was able to find the white piece of cloth I was looking for.

Right from Rain’s hands.

Rain, who had been secretly taking her panties, looked very surprised when she made eye contact with me and hid her panties behind her back.

Why on earth were you secretly keeping that?

Something similar happened at the swimming pool.

I packed the swimsuits that Shine and I wore separately.

“Rain.”

“Euuung!”

Rain is extremely flustered.

She, who was even sweating coldly, retreated as I approached her.

As a result of this repeated chasing and being chased, Lane was forced to stop against the wall in the hallway.

I looked at the trembling rain and thought.

Did he try to use his powers to do the laundry?

Of course, if it weren’t for this reason, there would be no reason for Lane to take Prin’s underwear.

I nodded, impressed by her kind and gentle heart.

Rain, of course.

He was a trustworthy adult.

You tried to clean my messy underwear.

“Thank you Rain!”

“Uh, huh?”

“Are you trying to clean Prince’s panties?”

“Ah, ah! That’s right! That’s right. That’s what I was going to do!”

Rain reacts violently to my words.

Her golden hair flowed as her head swayed up and down.

She immediately raised her hand and summoned a small drop of water.

It spun around at high speed, swallowing the panties in Rain’s hand.

Sometimes, when Amy would turn on the washing machine, Shine and I would sit down in front of it and watch the laundry spin.

This is what the panties looked like now.

The panties spun quickly as if they were being washed in a washing machine, and soon fell clean in front of Rain.

Judging by its fluffy appearance, it seemed to have been completely dried.

I picked it up and approached Prin.

Prin, who had been talking to Shine, came to me with a bright smile as I approached.

I felt a bit proud of her reaction, which was that she liked me more than Shine.

“Jeff. I decided to just give the panties you lent me to Prin. Is that okay?”

“Yeah, it doesn’t matter.”

There were plenty of panties.

It was a little heartbreaking to give away the cute teddy bear panties, but what can I do? Shine wants them.

“Yes.”

“Oh. Thank you!”

When I handed the cleaned panties to Prin, she nodded and expressed her gratitude.

I didn’t forget to say hello to Lane either.

What a polite cat.

Thinking that the situation was somewhat sorted out, I closed the wide open door to my office.

Because I didn’t want to interfere with my grandfather’s work.

The moment I closed the door and turned around, Shine came up behind me and whispered softly in my ear.

“Talk to me later tonight.”

“Hey, what are you talking about…?”

“Yeah. Without anyone. Just the two of us. Since I have friends, I’ll just let it pass here.”

Why does the idea of just the two of us sound so scary?

I could only nod my head, shivering.

The good younger sister did not refuse her older sister’s request.

Because I’m a good younger brother.

yes?

After hearing the answer from me, Shine nodded as if satisfied and took a step back.

I sighed in relief and checked the number of people.

lane.

Prin.

Appleton.

Shine.

Chuchu.

They were all there.

It meant that it was okay to start the next game.

As I took my notebook out of my pocket, everyone’s eyes turned to my notebook.

One of my precious treasures was my Shine Sticker Notebook.

All important schedules are written down and managed here.

The second game was a ball game.

My and Shine’s favorite game.

Chuchu also liked playing ball.

“Next is the ball game!”

“Woof woof!”

The one who reacted the most strongly to my words was Chuchu.

Seeing him running around all over the place, wagging his tail like a propeller, I guess he really wanted to play ball.

Shine and Prin Lane nodded in agreement, but only Appleton smiled awkwardly, as if reluctant.

I didn’t miss her expression.

Appleton was an ordinary girl who had no training like the rest of us.

Cold sweat runs down my back.

It was my mistake.

I was so excited that I forgot about Appleton’s tastes.

She was a child who enjoyed quiet and comfortable surroundings rather than moving her body and playing.

I rolled my eyes here and there and opened my mouth to say whatever came to mind.

“But!”

“Wow!”

At my words, Chuchu stopped moving.

Stop running! The large ball of fur that had been running looked up at me with shining eyes as if waiting for my next words.

My heart aches at those pure gazes.

But there was nothing I could do.

This time, it was time for Prin.

“This is Prince and Appleton’s first time here. I’ll show you around the castle and gardens!”

I nodded as I said so.

It was a reasonable reason.

Whatever it was, Prin was happy to be with me, smiling brightly and rubbing his head on my arm.

Although he had moved away due to Shine’s restraint, his eyes were shining as if he was ready to come to me at any time.

Appleton sighed in relief at my words.

It seemed like he was tired from running around for a long time.

“Is it okay if I take a picture?”

“Of course!”

I nodded.

Appleton was a child who enjoyed taking pictures.

So it’s no wonder she wants to take pictures.

I had already told my grandfather and gotten his permission, so there was nothing to hesitate about.

Appleton was pleased with my answer and began checking the camera.

Chuchu waggled his tail with a sullen expression at my words.

Looks like you’re feeling down.

I’m not even a honeybee.

Shine and I walked slowly, showing Appleton and Prin around the inside of the castle.

There were art galleries displaying artworks, and there were also movie theaters built for showing movies.

When I explained that I was planning to have dinner and watch a movie here later, Appleton clapped his hands in delight.

“This is a movie theater…”

Prin looked around the inside of the cinema and spoke with a sense of appreciation.

Knowing her circumstances, I approached her and patted her shoulder.

Having lived there my entire life, I’ve never been to a place like a movie theater.

If Shine and I hadn’t been rescued by Amy, we would have certainly lived a similar life to Prin.

Prin, who was looking around the inside of the movie theater, nodded and walked quickly towards me.

The next place we headed to was Chuchu’s room.

The large door was easy for Chuchu to pass through, and it had a sensor so that if he stopped in front of it and waited, the door would open automatically.

A place filled with large dolls, bone toys, and all sorts of toys.

That was Chuchu’s room.

As soon as Chuchu arrived at the room, he ran inside and got a toy in his mouth.

That behavior made me laugh because it seemed like he was trying to show off his stuff.

Beep beep-

The bone toy in Chuchu’s mouth squeaked.

Since we had seen everything there was to see inside the castle, the next place we headed was the garden.

Grandpa’s favorite place.

A place where you can experience a different feeling if you visit at night.

The large fountain in the center and the labyrinthine wall of plants gave the feeling of being in a fairy tale.

Appleton also seemed to like this place, as he kept clicking the camera shutter.

Shine, who had seen Appleton running around excitedly, led Prin and me to a slightly secluded place.

“Princess.”

“Huh?”

“What was the mission you received before coming here?”

“There was nothing there except to tell Jeff to put the item he gave me somewhere out of sight.”

Shine’s gaze turned to me at Prince’s answer.

I answered with a confident expression, puffing out my chest.

“Don’t worry. I took care of that.”

I had poured all my abilities into the receiver that Prin gave me, so it couldn’t work properly.

The only information that could be received from the device was the coordinates of this place.

“Is that really all there is?”

“Yes. It’s true. I’m a good cat, so I don’t lie. ”

Prin answered and then stuck his head out as if asking for praise.

Shine nodded and stroked the cat’s head.

“You’re doing well. Just keep doing it like you are doing now.”

“Yes.”

“Do you remember what I said before?”

“Yes. If you meet the doctor, you told me to use my powers, right?”

“Yeah. That’s right. Use your powers to connect our minds, and I’ll take care of the rest.”

In the midst of such a serious conversation, a familiar sound was heard.

Beep-! Beep-! Beep-!

It was Rain’s cell phone alarm signaling lunch time.
