The Innocent School Idol is My Cousin Who Lives with Me and is a Spoiled Brat - Chapter 24
Chapter 24: “Illuminated by The Full Moon, A Question from An Enchanting Lady”
Translator: AJ1703
“What are you talking about? We’re in a relationship, okay?”
Without pausing, I deny it.
It doesn’t matter if she can see right through me.
If I don’t admit it, I can just pretend that it was just Murakumo’s assumption.
Fortunately, thanks to Mirei’s fixation on me, she is the only one who doubts me.
“Fufu, I see. Well, that’s okay.”
Murakumo smiles happily and starts walking again.
What on earth is she thinking?
She has always been a difficult person to understand, but lately I really don’t know what she is thinking at all.
“―Wow, it’s really beautiful, right?”
When we went outside, the stars were shining in the clear night sky, and Murakumo’s eyes lit up when she saw them.
It was an innocent smile that is rarely seen.
When you look at it this way, this person is also a beautiful girl after all…
“So, what’s this about?”
“Mou~, you’re not reading the mood~. Let’s talk while we walk.”
Murakumo squinted her eyes sulkily and pointed to the mountain path.
“No, they’ll get mad at us, you know?”
“Don’t worry, if it’s me and Kakeru-kun, we should be fine.”
She was probably referring to the homeroom teacher who had just been at the front door.
As we were about to go outside, he called out to us, and when Murakumo said we wanted to see the night sky, he said, “If it’s Murakumo and Kagurazaka, it’s fine, I guess.”
But I think he meant that we wouldn’t do anything reckless or dangerous.
“It doesn’t mean that we would do anything on an empty street at night, so don’t worry. Well, Kakeru-kun might touch me, though, right?”
“Don’t be silly.”
I said and started walking ahead of her.
And then, Murakumo happily followed me.
“―Ahn… we can’t, in a place like this…”
“You said that you wanted to go outside, right? Don’t worry, no one’s coming.”
“”…………””
After a short walk, shadows of what appeared to be a man and a woman were hiding behind a building, clinging to each other.
They probably didn’t notice us.
They seemed to be completely absorbed in their own world.
“There are some dumb people out here, huh?”
“Shhhh… they’ll hear you, you know?”
“If they can hear us, they’ll be in a hurry. Are those guys from our class?”
“I wonder. I can’t even see their faces. Well, it’s going to be awkward if we stay here, so why don’t we go further ahead?”
Indeed, I get the feeling that something is about to start.
If we stay here and watch, Murakumo is right, it might get awkward.
So I didn’t resist and went up the mountain path with Murakumo.
And so, when we reached a certain point―.
“It looks like we can see the beautiful night sky here without being interrupted, don’t you think?”
Murakumo suddenly turned around and stopped.
It was a full moon today, and she looked a little enchanting in the moonlight.
“Don’t tell me you just took me out to see the night sky after all?”
She couldn’t go see it alone.
But if she tried to take the other girls with her, she wouldn’t be able to look at it in peace.
That’s why she brought me along instead― at least, that’s what I thought…
“That’s part of it, but I also want to talk to you properly.”
Apparently, I was half right.
“What on earth do you want to talk about?”
“It’s about Kijou Kaori.”
“―!?”
An unexpected name, given to me out of the blue.
I took a deep breath and looked at Murakumo’s face.
Murakumo looked into my eyes with a serious expression on her face, instead of the devilish smile she usually has.
“Hey, Kakeru-kun, have you moved on from Kaori already?”

Translator’s Afterword:
Yooo, it’s been quite a long time since I’ve started translating Nekokuro-sensei’s works and this is the first time there have been a “seggs scene”. Albeit, from background characters which we did not even see happen at all, but it’s implicitly wrote as such lol.
However, wow what a bombshell at the end of the chapter, I should probably edge you guys out on this xdddddd.
The next update may, or may not be until the series actually ends (which is like 5 chapters?) to make up for it~
If you have enjoyed the series so far, please do consider giving me support through my ko-fi through the button bellow.
