Qing Keisuke smiled and said: "I think it's not a bad thing to be able to immerse yourself in the things you like."
"Look at her look like this and say this again." Bai Shi rolled her eyes at him.
"..."
Aoi Keisuke lowered his head and finished the watermelon handed to him by Shiraishi Chizuru in three or two mouthfuls. He said it was so sweet and asked Shiraishi to pick another piece for him.
"This guy Tsukishima is so noisy, let's go to the courtyard corridor to eat."
Shiraishi didn't pursue the matter of Aoi Keisuke causing Tsukishima to fall. He picked up the plate, kicked Aoi Keisuke, and motioned for him to follow.
"It's a little hot in the corridor, please remember to put in some cold air."
"Am I an air conditioner?" Qing Keisuke looked sideways at her.
"Master Qinggui, can't you even change gold?" Shiraishi mocked in a sarcastic tone: "Why didn't I see you being so kind to me before?"
"My name is Aiwujiwu."
Qing Keisuke leaned closer to Shiraishi and wanted to touch her cheek, but Shiraishi pushed him away in disgust.
"Is this an idiom taught to you in Tsukishima's Chinese class?"
"What?"
"Love-house-and-crow!"
Chizuru Shiraishi puffed out her cheeks and spoke word by word in such a cute tone. Aoi Keisuke reached out and touched her hair and said, "I thought you would care more about the meaning of the idiom itself."
Shiraishi made an unexplained hum from his mouth.
She didn't want to answer Qing Keisuke's words, otherwise she would worry about blushing.
The two of them came to the floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor. They could already vaguely feel the heat wave in the yard. Shiraishi used his eyes to hint again, and Qing Keisuke quickly used the cooling effect of the air conditioner. Then he handed the plate to Qing Keisuke and moved it to the room next to him.
A small low table and two cushions.
"Tsukishima and I occasionally drink in the courtyard at night." She told Keisuke Aoi when they came out.
“The environment is great.”
Shiraishi gave Aoi Keisuke his own mat to sit on, and he sat on Tsukishima's.
Qing Keisuke took the second piece of watermelon handed to him by Shiraishi and chatted with her about relatives in Shiraishi's hometown.
Shiraishi sipped some iced watermelon while talking about how he often went to the countryside to escape the summer heat when he was a child.
"Dr. Shiraishi, if you put it like that, don't you still have a childhood sweetheart from the countryside?"
"Huh? Ah... there should be one, right? But I forgot its name."
Shiraishi shook his head: "You, don't be brainwashed by comics. In reality, there are so many green plums falling from the sky. Many of them stop contacting after graduating from elementary school."
As someone who has visited Aoi Keisuke's home, she has reason to suspect that Aoi Keisuke has concerns in this regard.
"I'm just joking, and childhood sweethearts in comics are basically losers."
Qing Keisuke said: "I have now left the second dimension. What I have been exposed to the most recently is the live broadcast of virtual anchors."
"Virtual anchor?"
"Well, the person in the middle is a first grader in our school."
"Huh?"
Seeing that Chizuru Shiraishi was interested, Aoi Keisuke simply cleaned his hands with spirituality, took out his mobile phone, found two live slices of Hirra and handed them to her to see.
"It's said to be a joint summer plan by several clubs in the school. There should be a lot of news after the start of next semester."
"Oh, it seems that there are quite a lot of fans. They are very powerful!"
“The image is also quite cute.”
"Is it called Hirra? Which first grader is it?"
Aoi Keisuke said: "My name is Hina, Futabazuki Ronda Hina."
"I know, it's that pretty transfer student, right? He often skips classes in the infirmary during physical education class. Who is so powerful that he can convince that kid to become a virtual anchor?"
"Well... I'm a friend from the club."
Qing Keisuke couldn't comment on how Hina got on this pirate ship, but judging from the results, it was pretty good.
After watching it, Chizuru Shiraishi returned the phone to Keisuke Aoi. She was not interested in the live broadcast, and of course she was not interested in the virtual anchor.
The final review is - quite cute.
Shiraishi changed the subject: "After returning from your trip to Hokkaido, what are you doing besides watching the live broadcast?"
Qing Keisuke thought for a moment and replied: "Going out with friends."
This sentence includes playing football with Nakagawa Yuuto and the others, going to the aquarium with Arisugawa, and playing interactive games with Kamaba Yui.
Although the Demon King has not officially started dating yet, he has already mastered the art of language without any teacher.
Shiraishi originally wanted Qing Keisuke to share his life, but he didn't expect him to sum it up in one sentence - this guy really knows how to chat.
"Why didn't you think of calling me and Tsukishima?"
"Huh?" Qing Keisuke looked at Shiraishi: "Are you complaining or acting coquettishly?"
"No! It's just a casual question!" Chizuru Shiraishi punched him when he heard this.
"Really? I thought Dr. Shiraishi felt lonely because of this."
"I don't!"
"But I ran around Kawayanso that morning in the hope of meeting Dr. Shiraishi."
Qing Keisuke picked up a piece of watermelon, handed it to Shiraishi, and continued: "It's a pity that I didn't even say anything."
"Why?"
Chizuru Shiraishi was a little happy and a little embarrassed to hear Keisuke Aoi say this. She explained: "Because my grandma was around at that time, so I was worried that she would misunderstand!"
"What's the misunderstanding?"
"Uh-huh……"
If Chizuru Shiraishi had a clear conscience, wouldn't it be normal to say hello to a student from his own school?
"Oh, didn't I ask you to come over and eat watermelon today? Why are you aggrieved?"
Shiraishi Chizuru waved her hand, intending to forcefully turn the page: "How about I cook a big meal to compensate you tonight, what do you want to eat?"
"I already have an appointment for tonight."
"Um???"
"The Hina I just mentioned, I did her a small favor before, so I want to treat me to Teppanyaki tonight."
Regarding the evening's itinerary, Qing Keisuke was very honest.
Tsukishima: “???”
Dinner with someone from a virtual anchor?!
Chizuru Shiraishi's small antenna radar suddenly reacted, and her intuition told her that something was fishy.
She asked casually: "Oh, where should we go to eat? I can help with advice."
Qing Keisuke told her the name of the store. Shiraishi thought about it and said that she and Tsukishima had actually been there when they were in college. The ingredients were fresh and the prices were affordable, so it was worth a visit.
"Are you and Mr. Tsukishima going?" Aoi Keisuke asked casually.
"Are we going too?" Shiraishi glanced at Qing Keisuke, a little unsure whether he was sincere or polite, but he still refused immediately: "No, if someone else invites you, what does it mean for us to go?"
Qing Keisuke nodded: "Okay, then let's have dinner together another day, or I can trouble you to come to my house to do it."
"we'll talk about it then!"
Shiraishi skipped this topic and had his own plan in mind - he decided to discuss it with his best friend later.
After the two of them finished eating the watermelon, Qing Keisuke taught Shiraishi a simple spell.
Most of the occult knowledge he imparted to Shiraishi has the function of purification and protection. There is no danger in learning it. After learning a simple incantation, you can start trying to cast spells.
"When are you going to go to the appointment?" Shiraishi suddenly asked after finishing his lesson.
"About four o'clock."
"Then...do you want me to cut your hair?"
Shiraishi pointed at Aoi Keisuke's overly long bangs and said, "You said you wanted to cut your hair in Yuzawa, but why haven't you cut it until now?"
"……forgotten."
Qing Keisuke stretched out his index finger and thumb to rub the bangs in front of his forehead. Because they were too long, they were naturally a little curly. Although it did not affect the appearance of his face at all, his temperament was always more gloomy.
"Does Dr. Shiraishi cut hair?"
"Is there any doctor who doesn't know how to use scissors?" Shiraishi smiled and said, "And I often help my family get haircuts."
"Then I'll trouble you."
"Okay, wait for me for a while."
Shiraishi went to the room and brought newspapers, scissors, combs and scarves, and then moved a low chair for Aoi Keisuke to sit on.
"What haircut do you want?"
Aoi Keisuke thought for a while and simply let Shiraishi Chizuru do what she wanted.
"Can I give you a bald head?"
"Um."
"Hmph~ You are so arrogant, how can any high school student be willing to cut his head bald?"
"Anyway, you can cut it any way you want."
"Hmph~"
Shiraishi first used spray to slightly wet Aoi Keisuke's hair, and then used a comb to smooth the hair bit by bit.
Stroking Qing Keisuke's soft hair, running his fingers through it, and feeling the warmth of his body, Shiraishi felt a different kind of throbbing - completely different from when he was cutting hair for his family.
Being so close to a young and handsome boy was like stealing a sweet apple, which made her so happy that she wanted to press her forehead to kiss him.
"Click..."
"Click..."
The silver scissors wandered in Qing Keisuke's hair, and the black broken hair fell down bit by bit, falling on the white scarf.
In the past, hair cutting was regarded as a manifestation of trust. Only by trusting each other could one expose one's neck to other people's scissors.
Now Qing Keisuke has given this trust to him.
There was only the sound of scissors in the corridor, and the two people enjoyed the silence, and an intoxicating love emerged from it.
