Chapter 53

It was just that close,

But Hoshino Ai racked her brains and just couldn't grasp that flash of inspiration; she still couldn't think of the meaning represented by this number.

"Eh!"

Hoshino Ai suddenly tilted her head, stuck out her cute tongue, and tapped her head lightly with her right fist, revealing a cute and awkward smile,

"Sorry, Lin-kun, I... can't think of it, you... tell us."

This was a very cute behavior for a girl to make, but the premise was based on Hoshino Ai's originally cute appearance; now, with black-gray patches distributed on Hoshino Ai's cheeks, Lin Ye felt the girl making this action appeared even more eerie.

"Hoshino, watch your behavior."

"Is it not good?"

She opened her big eyes, her face lifted slightly by fifteen degrees as she watched, her right slender index finger pointing at her cheek.

This was another small action that could highlight a girl's cuteness.

"Why don't you look in the mirror and see your current situation."

Immediately, Hoshino Ai understood; she imagined in her mind herself, full of black spots on her skin, making cute behaviors; this was simply terrifying!

She couldn't accept it at all herself, and a strong sense of nausea couldn't help but arise in her heart.

"I'm sorry, I left a bad impression and feeling for Lin-kun."

She apologized uprightly immediately, without a hint of hesitation.

"No need to be so serious, I was just joking,"

The indifferent tone made Hoshino Ai say "um," and she lifted her eyes again to look at Lin Ye.

"Lin-kun, just say it directly! My brain actually... doesn't work very well."

Lin Ye's gaze fell on Kuroda Hikari, and this chestnut-haired twin-tailed girl shook her head vigorously to indicate that she hadn't figured it out either.

"I'll give a few more hints!"

Lin Ye thought for a moment and organized his language,

"When Hoshino and I entered Room 306, the number below the clock time was 0, and when it was past eleven o'clock, it became 20, and after twelve o'clock, it was 40."
