Anime: Desolate Darkness

Kimura Takumi waved his hand, "How could that be? Mr. Hiratsuka, you misunderstood me. I was just thinking about how to answer."

How could Hiratsuka Shizuka be so easily fooled? "Nonsense! I saw you smile!"

Kimura Takumi wondered, "Isn't it basic etiquette to smile when communicating with colleagues?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka lowered her head, put her chin in her right hand, thought about it, and agreed with that, but soon discovered something unusual!

"Then why didn't you smile at the beginning?!"

She raised her head sharply and pointed at the other person with her right hand again.

Kimura Takumi looked away, his deep eyes revealing a hint of heaviness, and said calmly: "Probably... I forgot."

Don’t suddenly ask me to do something artistic!

The feeling that Kimura Takumi now gives to Hiratsuka Shizuka is as if the two of them are meeting for the first time, which is completely different from his previous image.

"Mr. Kimura, I..."

Ring ring ring~!

The incoming call on the cell phone interrupted Shizuka Hiratsuka's speech.

She took out her cell phone and saw that the two words "Mom" on it were particularly eye-catching.

"Sorry, I have to take a call first!"

As she spoke, she turned and walked aside.

Soon, her angry words reached Kimura Takumi's ears.

"... "

"Ka-chan! I'm already in my twenties! Can't you just let me find it myself?"

"... "

"What do you mean I'm incompetent?!"

...

At this moment, Shizuka Hiratsuka's voice was not actually very loud, even much quieter than usual. It was obvious that she was deliberately lowering her voice as she did not want to be heard.

Unfortunately, with Kimura Takumi's ability, he could hear not only her voice, but also her mother's voice on the other end of the phone clearly.

After all this time, aren’t you just rushing to go on a blind date?

Kimura Takumi complained.

But he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his casual joke would hit the mark.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the phone was finally hung up. In order not to be noticed, Shizuka Hiratsuka put away her phone and took a few deep breaths before walking towards Takumi Kimura.

"Haha, well, my family just called and urged me to go back for dinner."

"How can they be so mean? I am not a child anymore, but they still..."

Kimura Takumi raised his hand to stop the other party from speaking further.

"It's okay, Hiratsuka-sensei, I understand."

"Eh?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes were dull.

"It will be fine." Kimura Takumi looked at her seriously and patted her shoulder. Then he shook his head and sighed, "I'm leaving first, take care of yourself."

After saying that, he walked around the other person and left.

“Eh? Eh~?!”

When Hiratsuka Shizuka realized what was happening, Kimura Takumi was nowhere to be found?!

"What the hell is that loving look?!"

……

Kimura Takumi's office.

The reason why Kimura Takumi came back this time was not to pick up Nanamiya Tomoon, but to deal with some unfinished documents.

Through what happened this morning, Kirisu Madoka's words were imprinted in his mind. It was indeed not good for a teacher to drive a female student away every day.

Therefore, when Nanamiya Chion was captured and educated, he sent a message to her, asking her to walk there by herself after school every day, which would be a good way to exercise her physical strength.

He sat down in the main seat, took out the documents from the drawer and placed them on the table, but just as he picked up the pen and hadn't put it down yet, Matsuzaka Sato rushed in.

"skillful!"

Kimura Takumi felt helpless.

The two were connected by dark energy. As a superior, he could still sense Matsuzaka Sato's breath even though they were several kilometers apart.

What's more, it's just in a small campus.

Therefore, he knew that the other party's arrival was not accidental. Matsuzaka Sato had been hiding at the corner of the office corridor from the beginning, waiting for him.

Kimura Takumi looked up and asked, "Why haven't you gone home yet?"

Matsuzaka Sato didn't answer immediately, but walked around behind him and put her hands on his shoulders, "I want to stay with Qiao for a while."

"But don't worry! I will definitely go home at night!"

As if she was afraid that the other party would chase her away, she quickly added.

Kimura Takumi was too lazy to say more after hearing this, "It's up to you, but don't disturb me."

Matsuzaka Sato was excited, "Yeah! I'll pay attention!"

Kimura Takumi lowered his head and picked up the pen to write.

Matsuzaka Sato actually remained quiet and did not speak again. She just used both hands to rub the other person's shoulders.

A breeze blew in through the window, gently blowing through their hair, causing it to sway slightly.

If you ignore the sickly expression on Matsuzaka Sato's face, the scene in the office at this moment is still very beautiful.

……

On the other side, on a street in Chiba, Nanamiya Chione was walking, thinking about how to face Kimura Takumi...

It was true that she went over there aggressively during lunch break, but she was angry at that time.

Now that she had calmed down, she couldn't help but worry about some things.

For example, if Kimura Takumi knew my feelings, would he start to distance himself from me, or reject me directly...

But...what if the senior accepts me?

In that case! ...

As she gradually fell into beautiful fantasy, an unusual conversation brought her back to reality.

"That girl is so pitiful that she was surrounded by so many people."

"Why do you care so much about her? You can't help her."

Nanamiya Chion immediately turned around and looked at the two male high school students who passed by her.

"Um! Excuse me! Is what you just said true? Where is that girl now?"

She came up to them and asked seriously.

"Eh?" x2

The two male high school students were both stunned by her question.

……

Three minutes later, Nanamiya Chiyin received the information and rushed in the direction they pointed in a hurry!

From them, she learned that a girl who looked about her age was surrounded by a group of thugs in an alley!

After running around two corners, Nanamiya Chiyin quickly found the location, the alley with a red light sign opposite.

We must catch up!

She shouted in her heart and her pace began to quicken.

When a girl is surrounded by a group of thugs in a place like this, you can easily guess what might happen!

But what shocked Nanamiya Chione was that when she ran to the entrance of the alley and looked inside, what she saw was a large group of men lying on the ground wailing in pain!

Among the group of people falling to the ground, there was a cute girl wearing a red cheongsam and two black buns on her head.

She stood straight, with her hands behind her back, a confident smile on her lips, and looked at the gangster on the ground with a playful look and disdain.

Noticing the appearance of Nanamiya Chione, she looked over and said, "Are you here to help me?"

"But unfortunately, I'm very strong...I don't need help."
