The Amakusa brothers and sisters participated in the club training of the baseball club and the kendo club; Jinguji Kiyohime usually can't make a date unless she takes the initiative; Shiratori Kyoko has to work overtime at the flower shop; Asazuki Kune does not require her temporary boyfriend to be online immediately.
Looking around the social circle, Izumi Toru suddenly realized that the only thing he could do for the rest of the vacation was to stay at home.
So, in the daily cycle of games - novels - games - novels - codewords - games - novels - games - novels, the holiday is over...
May 6th.
noon.
As soon as the bell rang, Shiratori Kyoko stretched out her finger and poked Izumi Tetsu's back.
"Izumi-san! Izumi-san!"
Izumi Toru turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Let's eat lunch together!"
"Sorry, I didn't bring a lunch box."
Shiratori Kyoko waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter, I brought two."
Izumi Tetsu: "???"
After putting the table together, he looked at the two lunch boxes in front of him and was confused for a moment.
"Well, why did you suddenly bring me a lunch box..."
"One of them is a biscuit made by my mother. Because it only cost 400 yen to buy Mr. Aoki's new signature work, my mother is very grateful to you. This is specially sent from Kagawa."
The girl opened one of the lunch boxes and found super cute shrimp crackers inside.
Looking at the gifts from the distant four countries, Izumi Toru was silent for a while.
"...Um, Shiratori-san."
"What's up?"
"Could it be that your mother is also a fan of Teacher Aoki?"
As early as last time, Izumi Toru had a vague guess, but he was not very sure about this guess. This time, he asked.
"Yes." Kyoko Shiratori nodded matter-of-factly: "When I came to Tokyo, my mother supported me very much. This is all due to Mr. Aoki's works."
"...Aoki Kazuo really did something extraordinary." Izumi Tetsu murmured.
"What did you say?"
"I mean, what's in the other lunch box?"
Hearing this, Shiratori Kyoko's face turned red and hesitantly said: "Then, that...but, don't laugh."
"Um?"
Just as he was surprised at her sudden shyness, the girl opened another lunch box.
"puff!"
Izumi Tetsu couldn't help but let out a very slight laugh.
The two rice balls have smiling faces made of seaweed.
It can be seen that the girl looks like she has tried very hard to make her smile look happier, but in fact her smile is as weird as a rice ball clown.
Being so close, Shiratori Kyoko could naturally hear the laughter clearly.
"I told you not to laugh. Why are you like this..."
"Sorry, sorry," after a sincere apology, Izumi Tetsu straightened his expression, pointed at one of the rice balls and asked, "Is that okay?"
"……Um."
As soon as the rice ball was eaten, Izumi Tetsu's eyes lit up.
Although the decorative patterns are inferior to children's doodles, the taste is delicious.
The mayonnaise and sardine meat mixed with seaweed and rice have a fragrant and glutinous texture, which makes people appetizing.
Seeing that the satisfaction on Izumi Toru's face didn't seem to be fake, Shiratori Kyoko breathed a sigh of relief, picked up another rice ball and ate it.
It is obviously very easy to use a drawing board, but why is it so difficult to put it on a rice ball?
hateful!
Next time, be sure to draw a nice smiling face on the rice balls!
While eating rice balls, the girl secretly made up her mind.
"Shiratori-san."
"Um?"
"Although it looks ugly, you can make rice balls so delicious, which is amazing." Izumi Toru said sincerely.
The girl felt happy at first, then pouted and said, "It's superfluous to have an unattractive appearance."
"Hmm, um. It's superfluous. However, I think Shiratori-san can go to the school cafeteria and sell rice balls."
Kyoko Shiratori made a somewhat confused sound: "Ah? What?"
"No, nothing. Next, it's only right to taste the biscuits of Shiratori's classmates."
"oh."
The girl lowered her head and ate the rice ball while thinking about what Izumi Toru just said.
Why are you suddenly asking people to sell rice balls?
Suddenly, an answer came to mind.
Izumi-san goes to the cafeteria to eat every day, so if I sell rice balls there, that means...
Does he want to eat rice balls made by me every day?
Huh? Huh?! Huh!!!
Like this, like this!
Isn’t it just a confession?!!!
Thinking of this, the girl suddenly choked in her throat.
"Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough!"
"Shiratori-san, what's wrong with you?!" Izumi Toru asked hurriedly.
"No, no...water...water..." Shiratori Kyoko covered her neck with one hand and pointed at the tea cup with one hand, her expression was painful and her face was red from holding back.
Izumi Tetsu immediately unscrewed the cap and handed it to her.
The girl took a big gulp and it took her a long time to recover.
"Huh-ha-saved!"
"So, you have to chew your food carefully and slowly."
Shiratori Kyoko opened her mouth and said "oh" a little aggrievedly.
It's really hard to argue with.
Do you want to tell him that he was choked because he thought too much?
What are you thinking about? I’m so embarrassed!
"That...Shiratori-san..."
"What's wrong?"
"Your water..."
"What happened to the water?"
Izumi Toru looked helplessly at the girl who had spilled water on the floor without realizing it. He pointed at the cup in her hand and said, "The water spilled..."
Following the direction he pointed, Shiratori Kyoko saw the teacup that had already tilted in her hand.
"Ah! My tea!"
Sighing for the confused girl, Izumi Toru stood up and took out the mop from the cabinet behind the class.
"Lift your feet."
"oh."
After mopping the floor twice, Izumi Toru went to the bathroom, washed his hands, dried them, and took out his cell phone that had just vibrated.
Kyoko Shiratori's continuous mission has once again completed one step.
Izumi Tetsu was a little surprised.
Do the little things you did for her just now count?
Then if you serve as her housekeeper for a few days, wouldn't this task chain be completed immediately?
The next second, he shook his head and shook the thought out of his mind.
Forget it, I can't do this kind of thing.
Back in the classroom, Kyoko Shiratori looked melancholy, and she seemed to be regretting the tea she had spilled.
Izumi Toru took out the candy he bought with his breakfast change from his pocket and handed it over.
"for you."
Shiratori Kyoko's eyes lit up, she quickly took it and asked:
"Izumi-san just went out for so long just to buy me candy!"
Seeing how moved the girl in front of him was, Izumi Toru couldn't tell that this was actually a backup method to deal with a certain violent teacher.
"Yes, right..." He scratched his face, looking a little embarrassed.
"Thanks!"
Kyoko Shiratori tore open the candy wrapper with a bright smile and stuffed the candy into her mouth.
So sweet!
Sure enough, sugar can make people feel happy.
The girl narrowed her eyes slightly and thought.
White lies are also part of beauty.
Looking at the smile blooming on the girl's face, Izumi Toru thought so.
