Hoshino's body was stiff and swaying slightly, as if he was about to be knocked down by Qing Keisuke.
But this time, she really couldn't trust Qing Keisuke to have the ability to reverse the situation.
It is precisely because of this that she is so pessimistic.
Stopping it in time now can save the lives of Aoi Keisuke and Shiraishi and prevent them from being targeted by the sword master's dojo.
Aoi Keisuke's sarcasm was right, she shouldn't have gotten close to Keiko. After all, no trace of that warm dream remained. The reality was cold and cruel, like a sharp knife, cutting through all her fantasies.
"enough."
She said, "Didn't you also say that this journey has left enough memories."
Hoshino's originally cold voice became hoarse and obscure, but it was not a cry.
She knew that Qing Keisuke was looking forward to her being defeated, losing all her glory and wings, and turning into a boring ornament.
The bad taste was already overflowing from his heart.
But after Weiko left, Hoshino also lost his fighting spirit.
For her, dignity, personality, and freedom are not essential elements for survival in the final analysis.
She doesn't expect such treasures.
She can do the next thing by herself, and she can even try to use the helpers hired by her father to let them explore the way for her... to find out the secret of Daze Mountain.
She has made her decision.
That is to say, her trip with Qing Keisuke has come to an end.
But Qing Keisuke didn't seem to care what she said or thought. He walked around to her front, looked at her expression at this time, and then praised her admiringly: "President, your expression now is great."
What kind of changes did Weiko bring to Hoshino?
In this coldness like the moonlight, there seems to be a little more unwillingness and unyielding tenacity.
But this beauty cannot be fully described in just a few words.
Qing Keisuke couldn't help but want to reach out and touch this beauty, but before he could get close, he was immediately swatted away and Hoshino glared hard.
"leave me alone!"
"What a pity, President." Qing Keisuke didn't take it seriously, took two steps back, and continued: "I thought you would have the courage to make a wish to me.
When you saved Tetsuya Yezakura before, shouldn't you have gotten used to it?"
"What do you know!"
Hoshino pushed Qing Keisuke away and turned around to leave.
"Yes, Hoshino, you..."
Qing Keisuke asked himself softly: "Are you harboring good intentions or malice?"
Tsukishima Chizuru was entangled by Kamamatsu Saburo in the tavern, Fujita Momoharu's wish, or the Komatsu love incident, whether in the past or now, Hoshino has never revealed his true intentions.
"Good intentions, bad intentions?"
Hoshino laughed indifferently: "Is this important?"
"It's not important, but why do you think I would give up investigating Daze Mountain?"
Qing Keisuke spread his hands gracefully: "Yes, no matter you are kind or malicious, what impact will it have on me?"
"..."
Hoshino Fujiko paused, her expression became quite ugly, she knew what Keisuke Aoi would choose without even asking for her thoughts.
"So, how about you sincerely make a wish to me, whether you are a sword master or a god, maybe I can give you enough surprises!"
Qing Keisuke opened his arms magnanimously: "And just now, I have already thought of the price to be charged."
Hoshino's expression became more and more ugly. Of course she immediately knew what Qing Keisuke wanted.
"Two choices."
Aoi Keisuke pretended to cough twice, then raised two fingers and said: "The kimono bought by Komachi-dou and the skirt I bought, how about choosing one to wear to the music festival?"
Hoshino sneered: "Are you so arrogant that you don't even take the sword master in your eyes?"
But as soon as she asked this question, she once again felt Keisuke Aoi's familiar confidence and majesty, which was so vigorous that it was so trembling.
She heard Qing Keisuke laughing softly, and then said in an extremely confident tone:
"Yes, my president."
"madman."
Hoshino turned around and wanted to leave. Listening to Qing Keisuke's inner voice, she was completely unable to say anything to refute.
Even an idea popped up in my mind involuntarily——
Could Aoi Keisuke really be able to fight against the Sword Master?
…
"Oh, so you are here!"
At the entrance of the exhibition hall, before Hoshino could leave, Tsukishima and Shiraishi suddenly appeared. Shiraishi, who was full of energy, even raised his hand to greet them.
"I just looked around and didn't see you. The staff also said they saw a handsome guy going to the coffee shop next door. It's really annoying!"
"Where is Weiko?" Tsukishima asked curiously.
"Just now Weizi's family came to take Weizi back. President Hoshino was a little bit reluctant to leave."
Qing Keisuke pointed at Hoshino and joked: "If I hadn't comforted her, she would have almost dropped her little pearl."
"You can't tell the truth from your mouth."
Hoshino turned his back to everyone, took a deep breath, and returned to his usual tone: "Teachers, I'm fine, it's just that I feel reluctant to leave."
Shiraishi knew the inside story and probably guessed some of the truth, so he immediately helped cover it up.
"After all, the crying child is so cute, so it's normal to be reluctant to let go!"
Tsukishima is also a little regretful, she quite likes Weizi.
"What a pity. I saw that the rain had stopped, and I wanted to ask you to go play outside."
Hoshino stared at Tsukishima, always feeling that what she said was hurtful.
"Cough cough cough!"
Shiraishi wanted to cover her best friend's mouth, so she quickly changed the subject and asked the three of them about their next destination.
After leaving the folk museum, the four of them boarded Otomo Sawaki's car again. Since it was still early for lunch, they did not go to the business district specifically.
"It has just finished raining. Let's go and see the mountains. The mountains are the greenest at this time."
As the driver of the vehicle, Chinese teacher Tsukishima made such a proposal and drove directly out of the town without waiting for others to agree.
Shiraishi knew that his best friend was suffering from literary youth disease, so he did not stop her.
Aoi Keisuke and Hoshino were sitting in the back row, looking at each other disgustedly.
To be more precise, it should be that Hoshino unilaterally refused to make eye contact and only stared at the scenery outside the window on his side, not knowing what he was thinking.
Shiraishi felt that the atmosphere was weird, so he took out his cell phone and quietly asked Qing Keisuke what happened just now. The Demon King was now in a happy mood, so he concentrated on replying to Shiraishi's message bombardment.
Of course, most of them were just talking nonsense and frightened the female doctor into a daze.
Tsukishima just glanced at the rearview mirror and caught the two of them chatting secretly. The feeling of working for nothing for an ambiguous couple made her furious.
The desire to beat Shiraishi became more and more intense.
Driving on the road leading to the countryside, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the sun penetrated with difficulty, bringing some brightness and warmth to Yuzawa.
"Huh? The organizer of the music festival has made an announcement!"
Shiraishi flicked his cell phone and suddenly said: "They said they were affected by the typhoon and are now trying to build a rain shelter urgently. They are not sure whether the event will be postponed. They also reminded the audience to bring their own raincoats..."
Tsukishima heard this and disagreed: "In this kind of weather, they are already very courageous to even think about holding it as scheduled!"
"Why do you sound like a middle-aged uncle?"
Tsukishima choked and was so annoyed that he stretched out his hand to pinch Shiraishi's thigh.
