Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

Following the direction of Hiratsuka Shizuka's finger, Su Qing quickly found a pair of disposable slippers and put them on.

After following the other party all the way to the living room, Shizuka Hiratsuka sat directly on the sofa and began to direct Su Qing.

"The kettle is over there, boil some water first."

"Me?" Su Qing asked in disbelief.

He thought that Shizuka Hiratsuka let him in because she had something to say, but he didn't expect that she really wanted to drink water.

And let him boil the water...

"There's no other way... After all, Keiko should have asked you to take good care of me, right? Besides, I'm drunk..." Hiratsuka Shizuka said, and she staggered to get up again.

"Then let me do it." Su Qing pushed Hiratsuka Shizuka down again.

What the other party said didn't make sense. If the water spilled, I would be the one to clean up the mess.

"That's right, Kiyoko~" Hiratsuka Shizuka laughed.

Su Qing felt that Shizuka Hiratsuka was probably clear-headed at the moment.

She was taking the opportunity to take revenge on me for not giving her a way out.

What a petty woman.

"Aqiu!" Hiratsuka Shizuka rubbed her nose, tilted her head back and asked in dissatisfaction:

"Xiao Qingzi, were you secretly saying bad things about me in your heart just now?"

"This kettle is really a kettle." Su Qing first said to himself, then shouted:

"Where did you buy this kettle? Can you give me a link too?"

"Like it? If you like it, I'll give it to you at school tomorrow." Shizuka Hiratsuka punched the air and said unhappily.

"Why bother you? I can take it away tonight." Su Qing said with a smile, as if he didn't hear the other party's sarcasm.

"Can you please play by the rules?" Shizuka Hiratsuka said frantically.

This so-called student in front of me is really not obedient at all!

This made her very unhappy!

So she started rolling around on the sofa.

As Su Qing pressed the power button, the water in the kettle began to churn.

"It's easy."

Without trying to comfort Hiratsuka Jing for a moment, Su Qing just smiled faintly and stabbed the wound a few more times.

"It's boring."

Today's parents born in the 00s often resort to giving up when faced with their children crying.

That is, sitting on the ground and brushing dy or starting a game.

Anyway, the child will stop crying when he is tired of crying.

So, Hiratsuka Shizuka got tired of rolling and stopped.

"You've been in the Service Club for about a month, right?" Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly became serious.

"Almost two months." Not knowing why the other party suddenly brought up this matter, Su Qing still answered.

"Two months already? That's really fast..." Shizuka Hiratsuka sighed softly, "Do you remember the first time I asked you, what did you think of Yukinoshita?"

"A very interesting student." Su Qing naturally remembered him.

"You're saying that, but you two are from the same class..." Hiratsuka Shizuka didn't dwell on it any more and continued to ask, "Is this also the evaluation now?"

"It's hard to say now."

"Have you fallen in love with someone else?" Shizuka Hiratsuka raised her eyebrows and smiled maliciously.

"What kind of weird statement is that?" Su Qing was speechless and explained:

"She is now like a rough jade waiting to be carved. Only after it is completed can we give the most appropriate evaluation."

"So the reason you agreed to join the Service Club that day was to carve this uncut jade yourself?" Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly laughed.

"How is that possible? I just thought this club was interesting."

While waiting for the water to boil, Su Qing also sat down.

"If you want to make it into a fine jade, you can only rely on the raw jade itself. After all, even if the raw jade is the same, it may want to be made into different ornaments."

Su Qing talked freely while recalling his time in the service department.

"For example?" Shizuka Hiratsuka asked with her chin supported and an intriguing smile.

"Bracelets, jade pendants, finger rings... there are many options. It all depends on what the other person wants to become."

"Oh~ I know now." Hiratsuka Shizuka exclaimed as if she had suddenly realized something. Then she stood up, raised her non-existent eyes on her nose, and said excitedly as if she was possessed by a famous detective:

"So you are trying to induce Yukinoshita to become the shape you want, right?"

"What's the point of that to me?" Su Qing asked back.

"Yeah...it seems there is really no motive." Shizuka Hiratsuka sat down dejectedly. It seemed that her dream of becoming a detective was shattered.

"At first I thought they had established the ministry with a very clear purpose, but as we got along, I discovered that was not the case."

The water boiled at this time, and Su Qing unceremoniously took out two cups and poured half of it into each.

Because of the water temperature, the two did not drink it immediately.

"is it?"

"Isn't it? Just like I said, she is like a rough jade now. Although she has an excellent foundation, she is still confused about what kind of ornament she should become."

In fact, Su Qing had already realized this when he received the commission from Zaimokuza.

This is also why he told Yukino and the others what kind of "selves" he expected them to become in the end.

In fact, that was said more to Yukino.

As for Hikigaya, Yui and the others, it was just something they said casually at best.

But now it seems that the old saying may not be reliable.

At least Su Qing could predict the following situation in the future:

Willows planted unintentionally will grow into shade trees, and flowers planted intentionally will bloom.

"Yes... Even someone as outstanding as Xue Xiao could fall into confusion. But even so, the child remained strong, so strong that she kept moving forward stubbornly. Even if she was alone."

Hiratsuka Shizuka's face was filled with reminiscence, but then it turned into a relieved smile:

"But now she is no longer alone. I think... one day in the future she will be able to find the so-called [real thing]."

The real thing… ?

"Then, teacher, do you know what a [real thing] is?"

"Hey, are you curious about the real thing too?" Shizuka Hiratsuka no longer worried about Su Qing's bad habit of calling her teacher only when he had something to do. Instead, she showed a cunning smile.

"I'm not that curious." Su Qing retracted his gaze and said lightly.

He had been searching for the answer for many years, but even if someone came up to him and told him the answer in his ear, he would not believe it.

It’s not so much disbelief as disdain.

Only the answers you find on your own can be considered true.

"Come on, call me Mr. Hiratsuka a hundred times and I will tell you, how about that?" Shizuka Hiratsuka said proudly with her feet raised high and her arms crossed over her chest.

"An obedience test? Ask Hachiman for such a boring experiment. And here's a tip: he'll obey you if you threaten him a little bit."

"Huh? Aren't you selling out your friends?" Shizuka Hiratsuka, who is full of justice, will not tolerate such behavior.

"Then you are the human trafficker, remember to turn yourself in." Su Qing stretched out his hand, took a sip, and felt that there was nothing to talk about, so he planned to leave.

"Asshole, I'm a glorious teacher!" Shizuka Hiratsuka cursed angrily.

The lethality is 0.

"See you tomorrow." Su Qing waved his hand, obviously not caring.

Seeing Su Qingzhen leave, Hiratsuka Shizuka's calm voice suddenly echoed in the small living room:

“If one day you feel empathy, familiarity, sympathy, respect, jealousy, and emotions above these for a girl, it is definitely more than just love.

So, we cannot be separated, we cannot leave each other.

Even if there is a distance between them, they will still be attracted to each other over time.

That might be called——【real thing】."

The footsteps suddenly stopped, Su Qing slowly turned around, and Hiratsuka Shizuka also stood up straight at this time and looked into his eyes.

"How about it? Can I give you some help? Am I worthy of being your teacher?"

With her unique cheerfulness, mixed with a hint of gentleness and tenderness.

now.

That's how Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled.

The indoor light fell on her shoulders and on each of her cascading hair.

"What if this distance is very far?" Su Qing asked.

"No matter how far. It has nothing to do with distance." Shizuka Hiratsuka emphasized.

"What if... we are separated by a world?" Su Qing asked again.

"What do you mean?" Shizuka Hiratsuka put away her smile and asked with a frown.

Su Qing shook his head, but did not continue the topic.

“Before [jadeware] is formed, it is called [raw material].

If each person is just a piece of different [raw material], and with differences in the steps of personal jade cutting, jade extraction, rough grinding, fine grinding and polishing, they can all become unique [jade artifacts] in the end.

According to this idea, [the real thing]...I'm afraid I can only carve it myself."

The footsteps faded away again, without stopping for a moment.

"But...thank you anyway, teacher."

The moment the door was opened, the evening breeze that blew in freely still brought the young man's sincere excitement.

"What a troublesome kid..." Hiratsuka Shizuka scratched her hair in distress, but quickly corrected her words and sighed:

"No, it's because I don't look like a little devil that I'm in such trouble..."
