From the Distance, a Friend Comes

Part 1

Lu Residence - Living Room

Kaede

(Liguang-san's house is... huge.)

(I came here because he asked for someone to bring over a package from HAMA House, but... what on earth could be inside this box?)

Sojun Icon
Sojun

I have brought the boss with me.

Liguang Icon
Liguang

Did you bring what I asked?

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Ah, yes. I've got it right here!

Liguang Icon
Liguang

Sojun.

Sojun Icon
Sojun

Yes, Boss. I'll store it securely in the usual spot.

Liguang Icon
Liguang

I'll leave it to you.

Kaede Icon
Kaede

(Guess it's pretty important...)

Liguang Icon
Liguang

You should rest a bit. I'll brew some tea.

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Eh, is that alright?

Liguang Icon
Liguang

I had you carry the package all the way here, after all. I must show my gratitude.

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Thank you very much.

(I'm getting more and more curious about what was inside.....)

*footsteps*

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Chief-san! It's been a while~!

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Linxing-san, hello.

Sojun Icon
Sojun

Boss, I've handled the package as ordered.

Liguang Icon
Liguang

We've been spotted by that wild horse, huh. Linxing, do not run in the hallway.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

I was speed-walking, not running~

Liguang Icon
Liguang

I'll be stepping out for a moment. Sojun, keep an eye on Linxing. Make sure she doesn't blurt out anything unnecessary.

Sojun Icon
Sojun

Yes.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Hey Chief-san, how's Onii-chan been lately?

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Lately?

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Yeah yeah, I haven't been able to see him much after he moved to the dorms. And even when he does come home, he kinda goes off into his own world... So I wanna hear how he's been!

CHOOSE - Talk about his room | Talk about his braids

If you choose to talk about his room:

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Liguang-san shares the "Fluffy Wuffy Bunny" room with Yuki-nii... Ah, Kamina Yukikaze I mean.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

So I've heard~! To share a room with the legendary Kamina Yukikaze, I'm already sooo jealous!

I asked him to get some autographs, but he only gave me 3 of them. Saying that he wouldn't get one for my boyfriend! Oh, wait, you called him "Yuki-nii"?

Kaede Icon
Kaede

He's actually my cousin. So I ended up calling him by that nickname.....

Linxing Icon
Linxing

WHAAAT?! Miracles DO happen! I'm SUUUPER jealous~!

Kaede Icon
Kaede

They never fight or anything like that, so their room might be the most peaceful one.....

If you choose to talk about his braids:

Kaede Icon
Kaede

Sojun-san is the one who braids Liguang-san's hair, right?

Sojun Icon
Sojun

Yes.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Whaaat, but I told him to learn to do it himself?! He's still asking Sojun to do it?

Sojun Icon
Sojun

.....

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Geez, Onii-chan is so spoiled.

Sojun Icon
Sojun

It isn't that Boss can't do it himself. He tends to braid his hair a bit thicker, but that isn't a problem.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Ohhh! I'm glad I taught him then.

Kaede Icon
Kaede

(So Linxing-san herself taught him how to braid...)

Branching dialogue ends here.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

I'm glad to hear that he's doing surprisingly well. All he does here is take care of the rabbits.

Kaede Icon
Kaede

So there's even more of them here.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

He almost treats them like his lovers. Aaahh, if only he had a human partner instead. I'm sure we'd get along great!

Kaede Icon
Kaede

I don't think there are any rumors about that right now.

Linxing Icon
Linxing

What about you, Chief-san? No partner yet?

Kaede Icon
Kaede

I don't, I don't!

Linxing Icon
Linxing

Ehhh~ If I didn't have a boyfriend, maybe I'd go for Kaede-san instead.

Sojun Icon
Sojun

.....

Kaede Icon
Kaede

(Sojun-san's looking at me like...!)

I-I'll have to pass on that.....

(Liguang-san, please hurry back...!)
