Chapter Thirty-Two: Someone Always Treats You Gentlely
Izumi Toru sighed as his cheeks were pinched.
"It hurts."
"You're awake, why don't you open your eyes?" Jinguji Kiyohime then retracted her hand and put it behind her back.
He rubbed it with his thumb and index finger a few times.
It feels good in hand.
"Because it takes a lot of effort to open my eyes, I am a patient now."
Izumi Tetsu stood up and put away the blanket that he had covered himself with for some time.
"I'll do it!" Jinguji Kiyohime snatched his job, and then said: "Go back early today, take a day off tomorrow, and you should be fine."
"Um."
"Do you need someone to take care of you?"
"How can my body be so delicate?"
Hearing this, Jinguji Kiyohime dropped the blanket and stared at Izumi Tooru with slightly bulging cheeks.
Realizing that he had said something wrong, Izumi Toru quickly said: "Sorry!"
After staring at him for a while, the girl spoke:
"I think Izumi-kun's body is very delicate, so it is delicate. What do Izumi-kun think?"
"Well, actually... my illness is almost healed... You see, even if I take the exam for one day, there is no problem at all. Right..."
After listening to his explanation, Jinguji Kiyohime sighed softly.
"The matter of [dragging a sick body to take the exam] is actually not necessary, is it?"
Izumi Toru shook his head and said in a tone that could not be refuted: "That won't work. I have to ensure that no one is qualified to apply for membership. Therefore, no matter which exam I take, I have to get second place."
The convinced girl bent down again and folded the blanket.
The exquisite curves were vaguely revealed through the one-piece black gauze skirt, and the pure skin seemed to be hiding the moonlight, making Izumi Tetsu couldn't help but hold his breath.
Every move is elegant and seductive.
Just seeing the forearms and calves through the tulle can give people two completely different feelings.
Is it the function of clothing matching?
Hormonal effects?
Izumi Tetsu wasn't sure, but that didn't stop him from appreciating the girl's beauty.
After the girl stood up, Izumi Toru turned his attention to the flower arrangement in the alcove at the right time.
The small white and pink flowers on the black and yellow branches are as cute and charming as the girl's fair and pink skin just now.
“It’s beautiful.”
"What's beautiful?"
"So are you, and so are the flowers."
Listening to his heartfelt praise, the girl covered her mouth and smiled.
"But are you excited?"
“I haven’t stopped since I entered the house.”
Although she couldn't hear the answer she wanted, Jinguji Kiyohime was not angry either.
What's more, she herself doesn't know what she wants to do.
Whether what you did was right or wrong.
However, in terms of identity, this is probably wrong...
"Izumi-kun, it's time for you to go back."
"Um."
Seeing him about to go out, Jinguji Kiyohime suddenly shouted: "Izumi-kun!"
Izumi Toru stopped, turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Would you like to write a poem for me?"
At this moment, the girl's pupils were burning with flames that were incompatible with her gentle and watery temperament, making the blood of the sick Izumi Toru become boiling hot.
Sure enough, seeing such a charming and beautiful girl made me feel better from my illness.
Although, all this is just an illusion caused by the red light of the setting sun...
"I am willing."
Jinguji Kiyohime nodded vigorously, "I remember."
"Then, should I leave first?"
"Um."
The girl looked out the window. The setting sun rimmed the black gauze skirt with red, as if the fire of hell was burning.
[Mission: Ice and Fire; Progress: Unlocking]
…
After walking out of the school gate, Izumi Toru was a little surprised when he saw Kyoko Shiratori coming towards her.
"Shiratori-san, are you waiting for me?"
Shiratori Kyoko nodded.
"Lost your wallet again?"
The girl shook her head.
"Lost the key?"
She continued to shake her head.
"What's missing?"
"Izumi-san, I heard some rumors about last year's campus festival."
Izumi Tetsu was stunned for a moment.
Then, he pointed in the direction of the station and said, "Walking and talking?"
"good."
Kyoko Shiratori walked beside him, neither far nor near.
"You can ask whatever you want to ask. But I don't guarantee that I will answer."
"It's rumored that you violated the underage drinking ban?"
Izumi Toru shook his head and said: "That's not a rumor. I did violate the prohibition on alcohol and was taken to a control center. However, because I am underage and I don't have a guardian, they may see that I have a poor background, so they just
Let me go..."
"So, how does it feel to drink?" Shiratori Kyoko asked with bright eyes.
He rolled his eyes at her and said, "Girls, don't be curious about this. I refuse to answer this question."
Kyoko Shiratori clenched her fists and wanted to hit him twice, but considering that he was still sick, she just let out a "hum".
"It is clearly rumored that you persuaded beautiful girls to drink...and now you are still saying such things!"
"It's just because you've been warned that you can't continue to make mistakes, right?"
"It sounds like you really persuaded me..." Shiratori Kyoko muttered.
"Whether you believe it or not, this is the only thing that is true."
Shiratori Kyoko was stunned.
By the time she reacted, Izumi Toru was already gone.
"Wait for me! Izumi-kun!"
She shouted as she ran.
Izumi Tetsu slowed down his pace.
"Then why do you want to persuade them to drink?"
"I refuse to answer this question."
"Eh? I really want to know!" Shiratori Kyoko said in despair.
"Then it's even more important to refuse."
"Hey! What a bad character!"
"Ah, ah. I'm really sorry for my bad character." Izumi Toru apologized without sincerity.
"In this case, didn't I ask nothing?"
"It's not something worth remembering in the first place. Let it be buried by time."
Kyoko Shiratori nodded as if she understood, then raised her hand and said, "Izumi-kun, I have one last question."
"What is it?"
"If you can't make friends, will you feel lonely?"
After hearing this, Izumi Toru was silent for a while.
Just when the girl thought he was still going to refuse to answer, he said in a low voice:
"...Only by loneliness can you go to the highest level. Without bonds, there is nothing to protect. In other words, there is no weakness. The aloof soul is the strongest. The so-called so-called loner is nothing more than this."
"But, Izumi-san, am I not your friend?" Shiratori Kyoko tilted her head and asked.
The expression on the young man's face froze.
"It's hard to be cool, but you ruined it all!"
"Hey?"
"Pit in."
"oh."
The two entered the station and waited for a while before the tram came slowly.
The rumbling sound gradually became louder.
"So, you feel lonely, which means you feel sad, right?"
"What did you say?"
As if he didn't hear the girl's question clearly, Izumi Toru turned his head and asked.
"No, nothing."
The girl shook her head and gave up asking further questions.
The tram started to move with the two of them on board.
"Izumi-kun."
"Um?"
"If you feel lonely, you can ask me to go out and play."
Turning around to look, Shiratori Kyoko was blinking and smiling sweetly.
After a long time, Izumi Tetsu couldn't hold it back and muttered:
