Late at night, Qing Keisuke lay on the bed and fell asleep.
He dreamed that he was running on an endless asphalt road. On both sides of the road, there were trees and mountain peaks that could not be seen clearly. In the distance, round after round of suns stared at him silently like eyeballs.
In such a grand scene, he had a strong desire to run, as if he wanted to run to the end of the road to see what scenery there was.
"Huh-huh-"
Qing Keisuke ran wildly, almost turning into a howling wind.
The scene in the distance began to change, and the lights seemed to turn into arrows, following behind him.
He noticed a figure appearing behind him.
So he slowed down and looked at the figure. It was also impossible to see clearly, but he could vaguely feel its joy as it ran following him.
He smiled silently, did not look back, and concentrated on his work as the leader.
At the end of the dream, he suddenly heard Reina Kobayashi's voice. She seemed to be close to his ear, blowing her hot and moist breath into his cochlea, transmitting the temperature to the brain, causing a numbing feeling.
"Senior, where is my gift?"
He woke up suddenly, and the electronic clock beside his bed flashed the time, and the number on it was "05:45".
The outdoor unit of the air conditioner hummed softly, and I could vaguely feel that the weather was going to be good today.
Qing Keisuke pressed his eyebrows and sat up, somewhat suspecting that the dream he just woke up from was a reminder given to him by spirituality.
But except for the sudden voice of Rena Kobayashi, he failed to leave any remnants.
"This matter...is getting more and more interesting."
Before going out, Aoi Keisuke did a simple divination. The question of the divination was "Will Reina Kobayashi go to the appointment today?"
The result of divination shows both "yes" and "no".
…
At early six o'clock, Aoi Keisuke and Arisugawa Asuka gathered downstairs.
The girl was wearing neat sportswear today, a white T-shirt, five-minute length light blue gradient pants, revealing her fair and pink arms and calves, and a pair of white sneakers.
The long lead-black hair is tied into a high ponytail, swaying, giving people a cute and neat look.
The girl's pink and white face is delicate and beautiful, and when she occasionally looks at Keisuke Aoi, her eyes are filled with a smile of joy.
"Qinggui-kun, I'm ready."
"Then let's go."
Qing Keisuke thought of his dream again. When he turned his head, he said: "Don't force it, you must tell me the speed you like."
"Okay~"
Arisugawa Asuka responded softly, and anyone could tell that her current mood was like a sparrow in the countryside, chirping and hopping on the wires.
They started running, exchanging brief messages from time to time to adjust their speed.
Qing Keisuke listened to the girl's gasp, and suddenly thought that if he could run beside Arisugawa, or behind him, and watch the high ponytail swaying in the morning wind, it would surely be a very beautiful scene.
Together they ran past the high-rise buildings and came to the commercial street.
The flower shop was still open in the early morning, and the young shopkeeper was carrying flower pots out. To be precise, it was a green plant, growing very healthy and prosperous.
Then Qing Keisuke smelled the rich fragrance of rice again, and Arisugawa behind him said in surprise: "Ah, it's 'cake'."
"Let's buy some to eat on the way back," Qing Keisuke said.
"Okay~"
After running out of the commercial street and about a kilometer further, they passed a small stream.
The flow of the stream is very slow and the water is very clear. There are many palm-sized fish hidden under the floating leaves.
The coolness of the water washed over my face, and Arisukawa Asuka asked to rest here for a while.
——In fact, this is almost her limit.
She covered her mouth and gasped for air, sweat beads sliding down her cheeks one by one, and she felt like her body was radiating heat like a furnace.
Qing Keisuke asked her to lean against the guardrail for a while. He went to the drinks machine next to him and bought a bottle of room temperature and a bottle of ice-cold water.
"Thank you, Qinggui-kun."
Arisukawa took the water, faced the direction of the stream, took a sip, and drank several sips, which slightly relieved the thirst and fatigue from running.
"Qinggui-kun, you are so amazing. You ran so far without losing your breath, and you looked like you were doing it with ease."
"Um."
Qing Keisuke did not deny it, but said with a smile: "Because I have super powers."
"Really, there is no such thing."
"Haha." Qing Keisuke showed a slightly frivolous smile, which gave people the feeling that a playboy was teasing a girl. He continued: "Arisikawa, close your eyes, and I will teach you a way to relieve fatigue."
"Aishui-kun's method... must be very powerful, right?" Arisukawa also said playfully.
"Yes, I have super powers."
"But why close your eyes?"
"Because it's magic that becomes ineffective when seen."
"That's it..."
Qing Keisuke waited for her to close her eyes and then added: "When I'm instructing, I need to touch your body. Is there a problem?"
"...Well, it's okay."
Arisugawa Asuka's breathing became a little faster.
The teasing tone in Qing Keisuke's tone made her have the urge to open her eyes and hit him on the chest.
Her thoughts then drifted back to distant memories.
She and Qing Keisuke accidentally held hands at the school gate for the first time. To this day, she is still not sure whether it was intentional or accidental.
Now, she hopes it is Qing Keisuke's long-planned plan.
"Now slowly inhale into your lungs and keep this speed...until you feel that your lungs are filled with air."
Qing Keisuke's finger pointed at the center of her eyebrows, asking her to focus on this position.
While Arisugawa Asuka kept breathing, he gradually felt that the area where Qinggui touched and pressed became warm and hot.
"Then breathe out forcefully until you feel there is no breath left."
Qing Keisuke's spirituality then quietly entered Arisukawa's body, soothing her fatigue.
Arisukawa Asuka's eyelashes trembled slightly, and it seemed to be really effective.
She felt Qing Keisuke's fingers go down and touch the skin between her collarbones. She was immediately embarrassed and wanted to shrink back, but at the same time, she had a stronger idea to push back the urge.
She suddenly remembered the conversation where Keisuke Aoi asked her to go to the back of the school building after school.
"I will keep my distance from you, and I will also resolve any rumors caused by me.
So don’t worry, don’t worry, I guarantee your life will get back on track.”
He apologized to her and solemnly said "goodbye" to her.
The sour feeling at that time seemed to have yielded sweet fruits.
She forcefully sucked the air into her chest, as if she wanted to keep all the happiness at this moment.
Then Aoi Keisuke touched her belly, outer thighs and calves. The heat on his fingers could not be isolated even by clothes. It was completely transmitted from Aoi Keisuke's body to his own body.
The warm heat gradually spread throughout the body from the place of contact.
"call--"
Aoi Keisuke retracted his hand, Arisugawa Asuka slowly opened his eyes, and his originally bright eyes became moister.
The water mist is as hazy and dreamy, trapping Qing Keisuke in it.
"Qing Guijun..."
"H."
The girl stretched out her finger and gently poked Qing Keisuke's cheek.
