Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

When Su Qing said she liked something, she was naturally referring to the breakfast made by Mahiru.

As for whether it can be extended to anything else.

This probably depends on whether Mahiru can achieve this by saying she likes him.

……

As Su Qing and Mahiru slowly moved, they passed through the gate of Sobu High School and came to a long downhill road.

"I heard that the location of the school trip has been decided."

While walking on the road, Mahiru suddenly said.

"Hokkaido or Kyoto?" Su Qing asked.

These two locations can be said to be the two most popular options among sophomores.

The former is because of its hot springs and a series of snacks and delicacies that are different from Tokyo, while the latter attracts Sobu High School students because of its many historical sites and rich local culture.

In fact, the location of the school trip is not determined by the school alone.

This is often voted on by all students in the grade and ultimately decided by the Academic Affairs Office.

Generally speaking, the Academic Affairs Office will approve your application unless there are special circumstances.

As for what are special circumstances?

"I heard from my classmates that it should be Kyoto, but everyone seemed to want to go to the mainland."

The second half of Mahiru's sentence refers to the so-called special circumstances.

Su Qing also knew about this.

Shizuka Hiratsuka also specifically explained this.

Because of the unification of China, many seniors from the previous class took the lead in suggesting to the school to fly to Xinjiang or other provinces in the mainland to see the beautiful scenery of China.

It is said that on that day, the director of the Academic Affairs Office fell into deep thought as he looked at a series of non-island cities with the highest number of votes, including Xinjiang, Tibet, and Beijing.

Afterwards, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the elderly Dean of the Academic Affairs Office said:

"I understand your desire to go to more distant places, but you have to know that I have never been to those places...

No, it's that your safety in traveling back and forth is difficult to guarantee. In short, you should choose your study location in this autonomous region..."

In fact, it is a problem of the price of round-trip air tickets. As a public school, Sobu High School cannot afford the round-trip air tickets for more than a thousand people, even though its admission rate ranks among the top three in Tokyo.

All I can say is that there is a traceable basis for every regulation.

As for where this "trace" came from, my younger classmates, please don't worry about it for now.

"Kyoto? It's close, very nice."

Su Qing didn't know much about Kyoto, so he praised it so forcefully.

Anyway, the island is so small, and for him, everywhere is actually quite close, so it’s absolutely correct to say so.

"Have you ever been to Kyoto?"

Mahiru blinked curiously, seeming to be looking forward to Su Qing's next answer.

“No, this is my first time here.”

Before traveling through time, Su Qing, like countless ordinary students, had never seen the so-called Children's Palace, nor did he have so-called school trips like the students on the island.

He just finished junior high school in his city and then went to high school.

It was not until I was admitted to university that I left that small county town and came to the prosperous provincial capital.

A few years after graduation, I bought an apartment in the provincial capital for convenience.

During this period, he only left the province for some work-related matters.

Even during the four years in the university that is said to have the most freedom, I just traveled around the provincial capital.

He has no interest in traveling, including school trips.

Go from the city where you are tired of to the city where others are tired of, and even contribute to their GDP.

To put it bluntly, traveling is just like this.

"I see." Mahiru nodded slightly, with the corners of her mouth raised.

She seemed very satisfied with the answer, and her cheerful voice echoed in the air as melodiously as the song of a lark.

“I haven’t been there either.”

Mahiru's pronunciation was a little heavy, as if she was deliberately emphasizing something.

"So, where have you been before?"

It was obvious that Su Qing hadn't yet responded to Mahiru's hint.

Kojima has been on school trips from elementary school to college, it’s just a matter of length.

"Hmm...Hokkaido and stuff, but I didn't think it was fun when I went there before."

Mahiru didn't seem to be lying, nor did she seem like someone who would lie.

and so……

Hokkaido, minus points!

"But you seem to be looking forward to going to Kyoto this time?"

Su Qing said, noticing the look on Mahiru's face.

“I’m not really looking forward to it…”

Perhaps thinking that Su Qing still didn't know the rules of the school trip, Mahiru smiled playfully.

"Although school trips are usually organized in groups of 15 to 30 people, and you have to follow the teacher and the main group to visit first, there is also a lot of free time."

"When the time comes, wherever you want to go, contact me via phone and I'll find you." Su Qing responded without hesitation.

Having said that, Su Qing already knew what Mahiru wanted to say.

"Hey...I haven't said anything yet."

Mahiru put her hands behind her back and said this, but her smile was even brighter than before.

"Didn't you just emphasize to me that you had never been to Kyoto either? I thought you wanted to go with me." Su Qing smiled faintly.

"Well... I would like to go with you, but I'm worried that you don't have time." Mahiru tapped her lips lightly, looking embarrassed.

"I also want to walk around Kyoto with you, so there will be time." Su Qing didn't hesitate and stated his meaning directly.

"Well, then it's settled."

Mahiru's eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look Su Qing in the eye.

She swore she was no coward.

It was only when Su Qing said it herself that she knew...

It turned out that he also wanted to visit Kyoto with her.

It turns out that it wasn’t just my own idea.

This feeling of coincidence with the person she likes, mixed with happiness, surprise and joy, fills Mahiru's heart at this moment.

Therefore, because of such complicated emotions, she did not dare to look directly into Su Qing's eyes.

It’s not because the more I look at Su Qing, the more handsome he seems to me!

Hmm——I imagined myself sleeping on Su Qing’s lap not long ago, with Su Qing gently touching my head with his hand!

Mahiru felt that she must be ill, and very seriously ill.

Specifically, he suffers from a disease that makes him feel uncomfortable all over if he doesn't see Su Qing for a day!

She knew that there was a professional term for this disease in the mainland.

——【Lovesickness】.

"You came to see me this morning specially, it should be more than just to bring breakfast, right?"

Just as Mahiru fell into wild thoughts, Su Qing's voice woke her up again.

"What do you think?"

"Are you still keeping me in suspense?" Su Qing was helpless and said, "You want to go to school with me today, right?"

This is a typical narcissistic answer, and it is something that Hikigaya would not dare to say even if he knew it clearly.

Of course, most people wouldn’t say this right away.

That would be a bit embarrassing.

But that is limited to general relationships.

As for the relationship between Su Qing and Mahiru?

joke.

How can the relationship between the angel cook and her devil gourmet be described as something that can be described by ordinary people?

"clever."

Of course, Mahiru wouldn't think Su Qing was narcissistic, after all, that's what she thought.

Moreover, she thought about much more than that.

"But it's not quite right."

"What's wrong?"

"Not just today, but in the days to come~"

The pleasant sound still echoed in the air.

But this time, what does the lark matter?

Ask Su Qing to say it.

It has to be a lark like Mahiru.

Rather than Mahiru being like a lark.

"Then...please give me more advice."

"I am the one, please give me more... guidance~"

……

PS: Sorry.

Besides, I have finished writing the daily routine and will push the plot.
