Love is indivisible by twins. - Vol 1 Chapter 1.9

“… Say”
“Nn?”
“… Why don’t we go out with each other?”
I don’t quite understand myself why I said such a thing at that time.
Maybe it was because I was thinking about that all the time, and when I realized, I had just blurted that out.
“Nn? That, are you talking about the relationship between men and women?”
“…A—ah”
Naori was, with a sleazy and disheveled expression on her face, writing letters on the sand, constantly blurting out ‘ehehe.’
“I’m sorry I didn’t hear you quite well. Just now, what did you just say?”
And so she said.
“Hey, you definitely heard me just now! You were definitely and a monologue there! Only harem characters are allowed to hear those words over and over again in the unspoken rule!”
“You see, I was born weak in my ears. Look, just now, a dekotora was running down that road there. It made a terrific sound —- bang-bang-bang-bang-bang like. A remake?”
“They didn’t run! Also, I haven’t seen a dekotora in real life!”
“Is it probably a shoot for ‘The Truck Guy’? A remake?”
“Don’t pull the dekotora then. Also, I’ve never heard of a remake of that!”
“…Just once more. See, I beg you.”
Saying this, Naori put her hands together. Really, it makes my mood worse.
“Um then… please go out with me.”
“…I am sorry.”
Naori bowed her head, saying that.
“eh?”
I didn’t expect this pattern at all. Rumi-san, isn’t the deal we had a bit different than this? It’s completely different from what I was told would happen. There was nothing like Naori’s feelings for me or something like that, you know? Was she just a memorial service for my first love?
“I’m sorry, Jun-kun. Ever since I was little, my mother drilled into me that I must never get involved with Trekkies and Sherlockians. That’s what is even put in the description of my Akashic Records. Therefore, I’m sorry.”
“Ha—A?”
While I was dumbfounded, Naori tapped me on my shoulders.
“That was good. I think even Kurosawa Akira would get the okay in one shot. You should have more confidence in yourself. Well, if Jun-kun confessed to me, I had thought of saying this definitely. I’ve been waiting for it since years. I never thought it would come out true. Thank you for making my dream come true!”
“Um… that’s…”
“I was joking. There’s no reason why I should refuse, you easily misguided detective-san.”
Naori smiled as she said that. She was probably the cutest among those versions I had seen until now.
“Hey, you… you’re really impatient… Haa, it’s bad for your heart.”
“Really, you now … I really had sweat coming out… It’s bad for my heart.”
“… Has there ever been a confession that has been good for the heart? How about a confession room? Want to blurt out all your pent-up emotions and be relieved?”
“… That’s a different form of confession. Well, regardless of that, from here on out and in the future as well, I will be in your care.”
After wiping the sweat off my hands on my clothes, I held my hand forwards in front of her, though it looked a bit more formal.
“I will ask you to continue being my partner in crime.”
As I said that, Naori grabbed my hand in return, saying
“It’s damp even though you wiped your sweat just now.”
And laughed.
“Shut up. Don’t say things like that even if you’re aware of it. Rather, Naori’s hands are icy.”
“Then warm it up.”
Her thin, cold fingers slide in-between mine.
“Hey, hey~, you can also warm up my cold thighs while you’re at it if you want to?”
“Don’t be silly. Even if we say that we’re dating, stroking a girl’s thigh in the park after the sunset is really risky. What would you do if our neighbors were to see me doing that?”
“What is even risky, and how in the first place? Is being in the park after sunset risky? Is feeling a girl’s thighs risky? Is being in a park during the day OK then? Hey, say, what is risky?”
Naori leans towards me.
“No matter how hard you try, we can only be seen as someone on the verge of doing something shady.”
“What’s the shady thing you are talking about? Hey, say, what is it? I don’t know what it is, so tell me. My legs are so cold that I feel like it’s going to die… Haa. I am so pitiable? Jun-kun is being really cold. -459.67 degrees Fahrenheit cold.
[TL notes: Absolute zero temperature.]
“Just how cold is that? Isn’t that absolute zero? Also, don’t say it on the Fahrenheit scale. I didn’t even know what you were talking about for a moment. Say it in Celsius. Also, even if your legs are cold, you won’t die.”
I pushed Naori back, untied her fingers from my hands, and stood up.
“Here, stand up. Let’s go home.”
“Nn. Now, this isn’t something risky, is it?”
Naori spreads her hands out and gives him a pleading look.
Seriously — I hugged her in a tight embrace and made her stand up while still embracing.

End Of Chapter
I will not be translating Light novels anymore, or even if I do the current ones, the releases will be seldom. This is done thinking of some sites that have been getting better views than what this novel actually get over here. There has also been instances where the locked chapters were getting posted there by several translators as well.
I will continue to post Webnovels however, since those person are into Light novels only.
Thank you for being with me this far.
Yours only,
Translator,
