[Net King] The end of no fruit

A girl with straight black hair and long hair in a lemon yellow dress is standing in an exquisite jewelry store. A pair of slender, white legs under the knee-length skirt have a beautiful curve. Her black hair hangs naturally on both sides of her cheeks. The girl is wrinkled. The slightly distressed appearance of the eyebrows attracted a very high rate of turning heads.

But the girl didn't notice it.

Bending slightly, Hosokawa Sumisi put his face close to each of the accessories and carefully observed them, but he still couldn't find a suitable gift.

There are only six days left until Yui Hashimoto's birthday, but Summi Hosokawa still has no idea what gift to give.

If you talk about giving plush toys, Hashimoto Yui will look too naive, and it may not be appropriate to walk into the shrine with an oversized plush toy.

It's not that I haven't thought about sending ornaments like crystal balls, but isn't that too old-fashioned?Generally, people who have nothing to give away will buy a beautiful crystal ball to "cope with".

Besides, Yui received no fewer than two crystal balls when she was in her first year of junior high school.

After much deliberation, it would be most appropriate to give some accessories...

Hosokawa Sumire straightened up, walked out of the jewelry store with a little disappointment, and then stepped into another jewelry store next to it.

This is a pedestrian street near Ginza, which is full of shops that girls like, jewelry stores, clothing stores, shoe and bag stores... Hosokawa Cheng once heard about this place from Hashimoto Yui, but this is her This is the first time I visited this shopping paradise that Yui Hashimoto called.

Cheng Hosokawa casually twirled a bow-knot-shaped head flower, and his thoughts drifted back to yesterday.

In yesterday's expansion class, as usual, Hosokawa Sumire and Heiya Shibuichi sat together, listening to the teacher's lectures on those brain-consuming topics.

Obviously it was the finale question in the competition, but Shibuichi Hiratani solved it in only 10 minutes.Cheng Hosokawa couldn't help but be amazed at how energetic he was when he was explaining in front of the projection screen.

The method of solving the problem is extremely ingenious, and it is much simpler than the standard answer given by the teacher. She even thinks that Shibuichi Hiratani is a superman.

However, after the mathematics expansion class ended, Hosokawa Sumire experienced a scene that he did not expect.

"Mr. Pinggu...I...I like you!"

Just like the scene on the grass that day, Shibuichi Hiratani was confessed again, and she was the bystander again.However, this time, it was at close range.

"Sorry, I..." Hiratani Sheichi's troubled look did not make the girl show the slightest look of frustration, but interrupted Hiratani Sheichi's words of refusal aggressively.

"Then, Hiratani-kun, do you like her?" Hosokawa Cheng stared blankly at the girl pointing at herself with her fingertips painted with pink nail polish, and blinked.

Why is the key point shifted to her?

Hosokawa Sumori subconsciously turned his head to look at Shibuichi Hiratani beside him, the boy just looked at the girl opposite with a smile, without saying a word.After a while, he slowly said: "This is a secret..."

"Huh? Do you really like her, Hiratani-kun?" Shibuichi Hiratani ignored the girl's clamor, grabbed Hosokawa Sumire's wrist with his right hand and turned to leave.

Hosokawa Sumori didn't know anything about what Shibuichi Hiratani was trying to sell.She could only forcibly suppress her curiosity, and then gently break free from the boy's unique warmth on her left wrist.

She didn't hear the boy's sigh, nor did she see his disappointed eyes.

"Ah... Hosokawa, what a coincidence, I actually met you here." The young man's gentle voice brought back Hosokawa Cheng's mind, she turned her head, looked at the young man standing on her right, and was stunned for a moment .

It's just a simple white sports T-shirt over a black long-sleeved jacket, which makes him very eye-catching when worn on the boy's body. He is wearing beige casual trousers because he is too thin , seems empty...

Cheng Hosokawa had already seen the red eyes of the shopping guide lady.

"Good morning, Mr. Pinggu." Curling her lips, she replied lightly, and carefully put the bow-knot-shaped head flower back to its original position.

"Did Hosokawa also come here to pick out birthday presents for Hashimoto-san?" Hiratani Shibuichi asked with a smile, not minding Hosokawa's distraction.

"Well, but I still don't know what to give." Cheng Hosokawa turned around and was about to leave the jewelry store.

"Wait a minute," Pinggu Sheyi caught up and patted her on the shoulder lightly, "Let me help you choose."

"You help me?" Hosokawa Sumori raised his eyebrows, and looked at Shibuichi Hiratani suspiciously.

The black-haired boy just nodded, walked up to the shopping guide lady, and said, "Hello, I want to ask, do you have any birthday gifts suitable for 14-year-old girls?"

"Ah! Yes, yes, let me find it for you!" The shopping guide lady nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, making Hosokawa Cheng couldn't help laughing, and then led Hosokawa Cheng and Hei Shibuichi to an inconspicuous place. In a small corner, he said: "Girls of this age like to wear bracelets. There are all bracelets here. You can choose by yourself."

"Then, thank you!" Hiratani turned her head to look at Cheng Hosokawa, her playful look made Hosokawa's face flushed, she lowered her head, thanked her softly, and then searched carefully in the glass counter.

There are many bracelets, especially under the light, they look even more eye-catching. Cheng Hosokawa couldn't help but rubbed his eyes and sighed softly.

"Hosokawa, look at this." Hiratani Shibuichi pointed to a corner of the counter with his slender index finger. Inside was a bracelet made of unknown stones. Each stone was processed into a four-petal flower. The shapes of the stones are connected one by one, colorful, and there is even a faint light in each stone.

so beautiful……

Hosokawa Summi sighed in his heart, and Hiratani Shibuichi asked the shopping guide lady to take out the bracelet when Hosokawa Summi was admiring the bracelet.

Holding the bracelet in both hands, Cheng Hosokawa walked to the cash register, ready to pay the bill.

"It's five thousand yen in total."

Five thousand yen...why is it so expensive... Hosokawa Sumori frowned and looked at the bracelet in front of him, and couldn't help asking.

"This is a bracelet imported from South Korea. The quality is very good. Look..."

Hosokawa Sumire ignored the shopping guide lady's introduction, thought for a long time, and finally decided to buy the bracelet.

"Thank you for your patronage."

Walking on the pedestrian street with a gift bag, Hosokawa Sumire smiled and said to Shibu Hiriya, "Thank you, Mr. Hiratani." Although the bracelet is a bit expensive, it is indeed very beautiful, and the quality seems to be as good as the shopping guide lady said.

If it wasn't for Shibuichi Hiratani, she wouldn't have been able to find that bracelet at all... Sumi Hosokawa thought about it, and couldn't help feeling a little grateful and close to Shibuichi Hiriya in her heart.

"By the way, Hiratani-kun, have you bought the birthday present for Yui yet?" Hosokawa asked.

"Well, I've already bought it." The boy raised his hand with a smile, and it was only then that Hosokawa found that Shibuichi Hiratani was holding a gift bag in his hand.

"Eh? What's that?" Hosokawa Sumire rarely showed the vivacity of a girl, and the bright smile made Hiratani dazed for a moment, but he immediately replied: "It's a crystal ball."

Crystal ball?Hosokawa's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that Shibuichi Hiratani would give such a popular gift.It stands to reason that it would be most appropriate for Shibuichi Hiratani to give away some fragrance...

"Compared to this..." Hiratani asked with a smile, "Hosokawa, have you decided what kind of kimono you will wear at Hashimoto-san's birthday party?"

"I haven't decided yet. I saw one in Ginza before, but it was too expensive..." Sumire Hosokawa suddenly remembered the kimono she and Yui Hashimoto saw in Ginza that day, and replied.

"Is that so..." Pinggu Sheyi didn't continue to ask, but just nodded thoughtfully.

She stood at the window, looking down at the sidewalk, her eyes dazed.

In the haze, there seemed to be a black-haired boy standing there with a bicycle parked beside him, smiling and waving to her.

Once, almost every morning, he was there.

Now, I can't find it anymore.

The author has something to say: Why can't I stop every time I write Hiratani boy... The progress of Hosokawa girl and Tezuka is too slow by me...
