As the leader of Class B's school trip, Bai Shijing decided to go out and patrol again before going to bed to prevent any classmates from sneaking out in the middle of the night and doing strange things.
However, the students in Class B are very peaceful and every room is quiet.
Until she walked to Izumi Toru's room.
The door was ajar, and when I walked in, Izumi Toru was not there, which made Bai Shijing's eyes suddenly narrow.
OK!
I clearly warned you, it must be at this time, right?
Shiraishi angrily went to Jinguji Kiyohime's room and knocked on the door.
"Izumi-kun is taking a bath in the hot spring."
Jinguji Kiyohime's words made Shiraishi Jing's expression soften.
It turned out that I had wrongly blamed him.
That's good……
After bidding farewell to Jinguji Seihime, Bai Shijing prepared to go back to sleep.
However, when she passed by a certain room, she found a suspicious girl squatting at the door.
She looked up and glanced at the house number, and was stunned for a moment.
Isn't this the room Jinguji Temple said was used for bathing in the hot springs?
What is this girl doing?
She walked over and patted the girl on the shoulder.
"you……"
"ah!"
A sharp exclamation came from Sakurai Ruiko's mouth.
The girl's face was red, her expression was panicked, her eyes were filled with water mist for no apparent reason, and the cute bear was alluring and charming.
Bai Shijing's eyes suddenly froze when he saw Sakurai Ruizi.
Although she was not familiar with Sakurai Ruiko, how could she not know the school's famous disciplinary committee member? Not to mention that this girl was the source of Izumi Toru's bad reputation in the school...
Last year's school festival, if she hadn't reported it, Izumi Toru wouldn't have gone to the juvenile detention center...
Of course, Bai Shijing did not complain too much about Sakurai Ruiko regarding this matter. She knew the cause and effect, and the girl just did what a righteous person should do.
And if Izumi Toru was willing to explain, it wouldn't be like that.
Shiraishi Shizu also knows why Izumi Toru doesn’t want to explain...
The boy who met again after many years but did not recognize each other immediately found someone he liked more, but had to give up...
Izumi Toru cried so sadly in her arms that day, but she could only watch the police car drive away until it disappeared from her sight.
She had just seen Sakurai Ruiko, and the memory that she had almost forgotten was reminded of her again.
Thinking about it carefully, that should be the only time Izumi cried...
Memories gradually fade.
Bai Shijing's eyes also regained their color.
Looking at the girl in front of her with evasive eyes, she asked: "Sakurai-san from Class A, what are you doing here if you're not sleeping so late?"
Sakurai Ruiko was confused and didn't know how to explain it.
This kind of thing, this kind of thing...
Seeing that she was unwilling to speak, Bai Shijing frowned.
What on earth is she doing here?
While I was thinking, a faint sound came from the door.
This sound is so strange and a bit familiar...
I seem to have heard a similar sound somewhere.
Curious, Bai Shijing walked to the door and put his ear to the door, wanting to hear what Izumi Tetsu was doing inside.
However, the clear voice awakened a fragment of Bai Shijing's memory.
That was when Izumi Toru was punished to clean the swimming pool one day and she went to see him. What she saw and heard was deliberately forgotten by her, but she always recalled it in the dead of night, a memory that made her feel embarrassed and wanted to cry.
The woman clenched her fists, but felt a little dizzy.
She knew what Sakurai Ruiko was doing.
But she would rather not know...
…
"Go out quickly, it will be bad if others find out~"
Kyoko Shiratori, who had not yet put on her yukata, gently pushed Izumi Toru's back, her voice filled with indifferent supplication and coquettishness.
"Um."
Izumi Toru put the key next to her, picked up a towel and wiped his hair a little, then pushed his hair back and walked out.
When he opened the door, he couldn't understand the scene outside.
Sakurai Ruiko squatted on the ground, while Shiraishi Shizu stood in front of the girl, looking a little embarrassed.
What are these two people doing standing at the door?
And it feels like they shouldn’t be brought together...
"What are you doing?"
As soon as Izumi Toru finished speaking, Shiraishi Jing and Sakurai Ruiko's bodies trembled at the same time.
"Ah, then, that, no, it's nothing!" Bai Shijing looked flustered and replied hesitantly.
Seeing her like this, Izumi narrowed his eyes.
"Oh, is it so?"
"Of course! I, I never lie!"
Seemingly dissatisfied with Izumi Toru not trusting her, Shiraishi Jing's eyes immediately widened.
However, with her twinkling eyes, she seemed somewhat lacking in confidence.
Izumi Tetsu glanced and curled his lips.
I don’t know if you’ve been panicking or not?
But if it was exposed, there was no guarantee that she would become so angry that she would beat herself up, so I decided to forget it.
He shifted his gaze to Sakurai Ruiko, who had not stood up.
"Sakurai, are you okay?"
"...%￥...am..."
The girl's unclear voice had no way of understanding what it meant.
"what are you saying?"
"...still...okay..."
Although the voice was still very low, Izumi Toru finally heard it clearly this time.
But why does she keep squatting?
Is your foot injured?
Thinking of this, he frowned.
"Did you sprain your feet again?"
Hearing Izumi Toru's question, Sakurai Ruiko was stunned for a moment.
"Ah? No, no!"
Of course not hurt. But she would rather be hurt.
Hiding outside and eavesdropping, I was caught by the teacher of Class B...
Seeing Izumi Toru being attracted by Sakurai Ruiko's anomaly, Shiraishi felt as if he was being pardoned.
She didn't say hello, but tiptoed back, then suddenly turned around and escaped from the embarrassing situation.
As for the fact that Izumi Toru failed to keep his promise despite clearly promising that he would not do strange things, she no longer wanted to pursue it.
She just wants to escape.
Izumi Toru confirmed again and again, and Sakurai Ruiko stood up and jumped twice to prove that she was not injured.
Because of this, her still red face caught his sight.
"I got sick?"
"Ah, no..." Sakurai Ruiko wanted to answer that she was not sick, but then she thought, if she said she was not sick, Izumi Toru might have guessed what she was doing just now, so she raised her forehead and said,
"Well, I feel a little dizzy..."
Izumi Toru stretched out his hand and touched her forehead, and found that it was indeed a little hot.
"Have you taken your medicine?"
"have eaten."
After answering, the girl's face became even hotter.
Partly because she felt guilty for lying, partly because Izumi Toru's subconscious concern made her feel shy, and also... she felt excited even though she was eavesdropping but hiding it from him.
"Then you should rest early. Can you still leave? Do you need me to take you back to your room?"
"But, I, I'm so thirsty...Che..."
Sakurai Ruiko herself didn't understand why she suddenly said such words to Izumi Toru, which sounded like coquettishness.
Moreover, she even subconsciously called his name.
Maybe, he is really sick.
"I happen to be thirsty too, let's buy water together."
"……oh."
Izumi Toru turned around and was about to call Shiraishi Jing, but...
"Huh? Where's the teacher?"
"I have no idea."
"Forget it, let's go."
"oh……"
Sakurai Ruiko lowered her head and followed Izumi Tetsu obediently.
She feels like a bad girl.
Bad girl...
You will be punished.
She guessed so.
Click!
Shiratori Kyoko changed her clothes and opened the door.
The sound of the door opening made Sakurai Ruiko look back subconsciously.
The two looked at each other and then looked away.
Izumi Toru didn't seem to hear Shiratori Kyoko open the door and kept walking forward.
The girl with a single ponytail looked at the two people's backs and suddenly raised her eyebrows as she thought of something.
