unexpected tears
What should I do with this chilly atmosphere?
Lupin just looked down at the clear stain marks on his white shirt.
Leah, the culprit of the current situation, blinked her poopy eyes a few times and reacted belatedly.
“Ah, ah, sin, I’m sorry…!”
Leah rolls her feet, not knowing what to do, in a hurry, grabs a handkerchief and rubs Lupin’s chest.
To touch the chest of an outsider without permission.
Watching the situation, Rachel forgot her despair and cried out in surprise.
“sister! what are you doing!?”
“yes? ···Oh, no! I just… It’s going to be hot, so I’m going to wipe it off…”
Only then did Leia realize how her actions would be reflected in other people’s eyes, and while her face was flushed red, she waved her hands and vehemently denied it.
Truly a total chaos. Even in the midst of it, as if the eyes of a typhoon were silent, Lupin, the victim, just stood still without keeping his mouth shut.
‘ruined! Absolutely ruined…!’
Rachel’s head was filled with only one thought.
When I went to the office yesterday, he obviously said that coming home in person was like the last screening.
In other words, he passed all the other examinations, but he failed desperately at the last gate. She hadn’t heard the results yet, but she was already convinced she had fallen.
“I am okay. Let’s sit down and talk.”
Rachel came to her senses at the calm voice she heard in front of her and lifted her head.
Contrary to what she expected, Lupin’s expression had maintained a dull, expressionless expression that showed no emotion.
‘…are you okay?’
No, no matter how I thought about it, I couldn’t. If he had changed his position and received the same treatment, he would have turned around and left the house without hesitation for even a second.
Or go further, saying that he never imagined that he would be greeted like this, and he teased him a lot until his opponent knelt down and prayed.
Perhaps there is a lot of anger in the expressionless expression that is hard to read what that means.
The thought of that gave Rachel a chill.
On the other hand, her older sister, who took his words directly, came back with a bright expression in no time and spoke comfortably with a sly smile.
“I’m so glad you’re okay! wait please! I’ll bring refreshments again!!”
Oh my gosh. would you do that again?
Then you want to pour the same again? This time, you’re going to pour it on your ass, not your chest.
The moment when Rachel’s expression went into incontinence and she tried to bruise my sister.
Prior to that, Lupin opened his mouth and spoke in a polite yet firm tone.
“no. The car is fine, so I want to start talking right away.”
As soon as she heard those words, the girl realized.
The judging has already confirmed the rejection.
Surprisingly, it wasn’t terribly disturbing. Rather, I completely accepted the reality, and I fell into a state of mindlessness and nothingness. In other words, I was completely smitten.
“First of all, before I tell you about the results of the screening, I would like to ask you a simple question.”
“Uh, a question?”
“yes. Depending on the answer, the result of the examination may vary, so please answer carefully.”
Depending on how you listened, it felt like a dreadful warning, but Rachel now recognized that it was the only club that could overcome this situation.
‘If you give a good answer here, you might be able to reverse the result!’
The worries were brief.
“yes! Ask me anything!”
“good. Then I will ask you a question.”
The question that came to me was completely unexpected.
“Do you think it is wrong for someone to commit a crime to help someone?”
“···yes?”
It was only after slowly pondering the content of the question that I understood what it meant.
But understanding doesn’t mean that the answer comes out right away. On the contrary, his lips were closed and his lips were not able to come off.
What should I answer here so it’s good for me?
No, what do I think in the first place?
As I thought about it, I was reminded of a topic similar to this question had been discussed in small talk before.
It was none other than a conversation I had with my teammates while preparing for group assignments at the academy.
Phantom Thief Raven stole other people’s property and donated it to orphanages and churches.
A person who commits a crime to help someone. Was Phantom Thief Raven really wrong?
At that time, he clearly answered without hesitation.
He’s just a trash thief who committed a crime. I remember that it was against Julia’s opinion and coincided with Sharon’s opinion.
However, she was not a claim supported by logical grounds like Juliana or Sharon.
It was just an answer that came out reflexively without even thinking about it.

Maybe it was because she wanted to blame Raven for having her sister fired from Rapano’s mansion.
If so, how would you answer a similar question now?
Rachel thought through what he had said and then opened her mouth carefully.
“…if I’m in that situation, I think I might do it to help a loved one.”
“That means it’s not your fault.”
“Even if it was wrong, I would do it.”
In just a few weeks, she changed her mind. The biggest reason is probably because I was watching Leah struggling with her job loss right next to her. However, not only that, but also Julia’s pretty plausible claims and the fact that she had direct financial difficulties also seemed to have had an impact.
And Cro Morris.
Recalling the boy next to her, Rachel smiled a little bitterly.
Perhaps the biggest reason that changed my mind was that child.
When I first suddenly offered to buy you dinner, I was taken aback. I wondered if this guy liked me for nothing, and I was fluttering alone.
But when I think about it now, the guy’s actions were purely of goodwill. Eventually, the boy realized that his situation was difficult and helped Rachel by handing him the business card he had prepared.
He claims it’s just a coincidence, but he easily understands that it’s impossible.
It’s probably something you’ve guessed since we took the two of us out for dinner.
The results haven’t come out yet. Strictly speaking, the chances of failing the examination seemed very high.
Nevertheless, the favor the boy gave was very warm.
I was able to live with hope in that warmth for a few days.
So Rachel wanted to do that favor to someone else.
Specifically, to the person who is dear to you.
perhaps.
It wouldn’t hurt to repay the boy who helped him.
Thinking so, Rachel smiled at the moment.
“Miss Rachel. Success.”
An unbelievable story was heard.
***
It’s not natural to pass.
It’s just a play that I prepared everything for from the beginning.
The reason I asked the question as if it was meaningful was actually just to add to the tension. Don’t you get bored if you announce your acceptance too easily? It’s a big deal if you have any doubts.
The content of the question was also a question I asked after being grumpy about Rachel’s dislike of Raven, the phantom thief.
Naturally, I thought that the answer that came back would be a very common-sense answer that, for whatever reason, the crime was wrong.
However, contrary to my expectations, Rachel gave a shocking reply that if she were in such a situation, she would commit a crime.
‘Isn’t it too far…?’
Or did he reveal his grand ambition to become a phantom thief?
Will I finally have a competitor?
Anyway, regardless of the answer, I was informed of the result that was set from the beginning.
“Miss Rachel. Success.”
Rachel listens to me and looks at me blankly.
I struggled to avoid looking at the burdensome gaze, so I waited patiently for a response.
Do you have a lesser reaction than you think?
It’s such a natural result, isn’t it really surprising?
Well, it’s not strange to think that way.
Actually, I said from the beginning that I would look at the economic situation more than my grades, and I said that coming home is the final test and greetings after the screening is complete.
drop.
“Ugh…”
‘···what?’
But why is Rachel crying all of a sudden?
He was so shocked by the unexpected situation that he hardened like a stone.
Am I looking right now?
Rachel is crying? No one else, that Rachel?
Since yesterday, I thought it was a little strange to look different from usual, but I never imagined that I would see them cry like this.
[What are you doing without comforting me right away?]
‘No, what should I console you for what I did?’
[tt. It’s still a long way off. It is really pathetic.]
I barely came to my senses in the goddess’s pin cup, handed me a handkerchief, and said.
“It’s a good thing, but should I cry like that?”
“Ugh… I’m not crying…”
Does anyone see you crying?
“just. Dust gets in your eyes…”
“Hmm. Let’s do it like that.”
Rachel wipes her tears with the handkerchief I gave her. Fortunately, it was only a little bit of a cry, but it wasn’t to the level of a real cry, which was fortunate.
Then, suddenly, her older sister appeared from the kitchen again.
However, her appearance was unusual.
No wait. time. time!
