170 Akino... The Brainiac! (1/2)

There was no concept of time in dreams, so Furuhashi Sakurakyu was unsure of how much time had passed.

When she picked up Akino's finished paper and checked carefully, her eyes were filled with shock.

The answers were all correct.

Furuhashi Sakurakyu's grades were not that good when she was attending school, but she still had some education as an adult afterward. Even though her grades were average, she could understand a bit of high school knowledge, so she still remembered some of them even now. Additionally, she saw these questions and their respective answers before, so she knew that Akino's answers were all correct.

Even though it was just a dream and dreams are unpredictable, as mentioned before, it still reflects on events from reality. If Akino did not know how to solve these questions, in reality, it would be impossible for her to solve these questions even in her dreams because knowledge could not just appear from thin air.

In other words, Akino was actually a brainiac. By eliminating all the other possibilities, what was left would be the truth.

Furuhashi Sakurakyu was excited yet confused. She had initially thought that all of her daughters were dumb, but Akino was actually a brainiac, to her surprise. What a deeply hidden truth this was.

”You did so well, why are you hiding it?”

Akino pouted after hearing that, ”I didn't want to hide that... It's because of you and Dad. By right, you should know this, Mom.”

After Akino's statement, Furuhashi Sakurakyu thought for a while and suddenly realized something.

Akino had the best grades between the sisters, and she was praised often when she was young. To express their praise, Furuhashi Sakurakyu and her husband often compared Akino's grades with her three sisters and rewarded her in front of the three sisters...

However, Furuhashi Sakurakyu and her husband had no experience in raising children, so they did not know when was the limit. Under the biased comparison, Akino was slowly isolated by Harunaka and the sisters.

Akino's intelligence made Harunaka, and the sisters looked way more stupid. Furuhashi Sakurakyu recalled that there was a period when Harunaka and the sisters studied very hard, and their grades went up as well, but even so, their grades were still not as good as Akino's.

If Furuhashi Sakurakyu had praised Harunaka and the sisters and gave them rewards too at that time, perhaps Harunaka, Natsui, and Fuyuno's grades might be closer to the level of a brainiac.

Since they bore the same bitterness toward Akino, she was isolated. Akino was confused, and she felt wronged.

Akino was indeed gifted academically. All she needed to do was to listen during class, and she basically got into the top board. So, compared to Harunaka and the sisters, Akino had more time to read novels, watch anime, her strange dramas, and movies... These contributed to Akino's mindset to mature faster. Her thought trains were affected by novels at that time, so she was a quick thinker. Therefore, to save her relationships with her sisters, her academic grades started plummeting slowly.

Her grades were basically the same as her three sisters at last. Adding on the demise of Furuhashi Sakurakyu, the four sisters were back on good terms again.

Harunaka and the sisters often recalled their younger days after they grew up. When they remembered themselves isolating Akino, they regretted deeply. So, Harunaka and the sisters treated Akino very well and lovingly since junior high.

As long as Akino's request was logical, they would not reject her.
