[comprehensive] those bastards

As for how to invite Haizaki to my house, I have already thought of a way - if this is an invitation.

Just treat it as revenge - who told him to be so ruthless in the game just now.

Thinking of this, I stopped in my tracks.Haizaki first continued to walk forward a few steps before realizing something was wrong.

Turning around, Haizaki looked at me and said, "Hey~ Mitsuki~ why didn't you leave?"

Just from the tone of his voice, he knew that Haizaki must be very depressed now.

I adjusted my glasses and said, "I can't walk anymore, Xiangwu."

"Huh? What are you guys doing..."

Despite what he said, Haizaki walked back and stood in front of me.

"What are you doing, Guangshu, you have nothing to do. You can't walk after a few steps, are you a woman?"

Ignoring Haizaki's somewhat aggressive tone, I said, "My foot was sprained just now, so I can't walk now."

"Huh? What?! Why didn't I know?!"

Haizaki looks so mad right now, it's... so funny.Sure enough, I am still very happy to see Haizaki fried hair.

I adjusted my glasses and said, "You were too preoccupied with thinking about something just now, and it's normal if you didn't notice it."——It's strange, because I didn't sprain my foot at all.

"Tsk~ I'm so annoying, what should I do now?" Frowning, Haizaki squatted down and said, "Where is the twist?"

......

I didn't expect Haizaki to come to check it himself, which surprised me very much.It always feels like...what's wrong?

Forget it, I don't want to.

Disregarding the eerie feeling - I really do feel very eerie.What is more important now is how to fool Haizaki over.It seems that this plan will not work, and the inspection will definitely reveal the truth.

"Hey, sit down and raise your feet so that I can take a better look."

Before I had time to refuse, I was pulled by this guy and sat down on a guardrail that was not too high or too low—this kind of behavior is more dangerous... After all, there is water under the bridge, and once I fall, it will be over.

Sitting on the concrete shield, I feel a little cold under my butt - it's not that hot today.

The same is true of the guardrail against which the back is leaning, and the metal material is not warm enough.In such a contrast, the temperature of Haizaki's finger is particularly obvious, very warm.

Obviously Haizaki is in good health, because his hands are not cold, probably because of regular exercise.

Having said that, Haizaki should be very proficient in dealing with these injuries. After all, he is often injured in fights, so...probably...experienced?

Oh, if that's the case, my plan will definitely fail—I forgot that Haizaki is an expert, what a mistake.I can't tell him right now that I didn't get it wrong...

If you say that, I guess this guy will be angry.But wouldn't he be angrier if he checked and found I wasn't sprained?After all, this is considered a joke...

After being silent for a while, I said, "Don't be so exaggerated... Xiangwu."

"Tch...you wanted to join the basketball club in high school, right? Your feet are very important to a basketball player. If you lost the game because of a relapse of an old injury, I would have laughed at you severely. , Guangshu~"

Adjusting my glasses, I was a little surprised that I couldn't find anything to say no to - I really didn't expect Haizaki to have such a serious side.

But... as expected, something is wrong... such behavior.

"Why are you still wearing weight-bearing wristbands on your feet! This weight has exceeded the standard! Do you want your feet to be abolished?!"

Haizaki’s growl from below brought me back to my senses—I happened to be wearing the heaviest pair of weight-bearing wristbands today, and Sadaharu also advised me not to wear them often, so I only wear them once in a while for exercise Take a look at adaptability.By now, I'm basically used to it.

But I don't know why, facing Haizaki, I feel a little guilty - obviously in front of Sadaharu I am still very righteous.

"Only occasionally..."

"Don't wear it in the future!" Haizaki raised his head and interrupted me. I found this guy's expression was very serious - I haven't seen such an expression on this face.

As if feeling that his tone was too much, Haizaki looked away, and hesitantly added, "Well... Even if you want to wear it, you can't wear it so heavy, after all, it's still in the developmental stage."

He seemed to be blushing again.

Adjusting my glasses, I said, "Ah~ Got it." I only wear them occasionally, and Haizaki can't see them anyway because of his clothes.

"Guangshu~ Every time you want to hide something, you will hold up your glasses, don't think I don't know what you're thinking~"

...and that's embarrassing.

It's rare, but this time it's my turn to dare not face Haizaki's gaze - it's too shameful to think about being caught or something.

Haizaki took off the weight-bearing wrist and put it in his schoolbag immediately—damn it, I really can’t get it back this time, and the sports store no longer has this model.

This guy Haizaki...you really dare to do it...Are you sure I won't be angry?

Well... Judging from the current situation, it is still more likely that Haizaki will be angry with me.

"Which foot?"

...damn, how should I answer that? !

Forget it, I dug the hole myself and filled it myself, maybe I really got away with it?

I say right foot.

Then the Haizaki family took off my right shoe and inspected it carefully with my ankle.

Well...if this goes on...it will definitely be ruined...now the little bit of luck that I hold in my heart is completely gone.

Forget it, even if you will be angry, let's tell this guy the truth, and let's change the method of how to invite Haizaki.

Just when I was about to speak, Haizaki said to me suddenly: "Ah~ it's not serious, it's not swollen, but it can't be taken lightly."

This is... a successful muddle-through?

"and many more..."

Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, I picked up the shoes, and Haizaki suddenly said two words——Could it be... Are you going to wear shoes?

Adjusting my glasses, I asked, "What's the matter, Xiangwu."

"No, it's nothing, maybe it's my illusion... I always feel that someone is watching us."

It turned out it wasn't a bootleg.

The shoes were put back on, and Haizaki squatted in front of me with his back turned.

"Come up, don't leave if you twist it, or I'm not sure if the injury will get worse."

...and that's embarrassing.

My original plan was just to have Haizaki help me up the stairs, so that I could take Haizaki home with nothing suspicious, and then the birthday party prepared by Mom and Haizaki's mother would turn into one surprise.

But I didn't expect Haizaki to carry me on his back at all! ! !

Being carried all the way back or something, it's really shameful! ! !

But, there is no way, this matter can be said to be self-inflicted, and if I give up now, all previous efforts will be wasted.

"Tsk~Guangshu, don't dawdle, if you're a man, just take it easy."

...Damn it, what else can I do after you say that? !Who the hell is messing with whom!It's clearly me who got caught, okay? ! !

In the end, I let Haizaki carry it away.Before that, I sent a text message to my mother, saying that it was almost here and asked them to get ready.

Today's moon is not round, but very bright.There are not many stars in the sky, and the wind is not strong. The water surface reflects the light of the moon, and it looks like it is sparkling.

I was lying on Haizaki's back, and I was moving towards home.

The shops retreated slowly on both sides of the street, and the shadows also changed from long to short, and then from short to long as the street lights changed, and this cycle went on and on until there was no light before it stopped.

Passers-by on the road cast curious glances at us, and I just felt a little embarrassed—it was so embarrassing.

This guy Haizaki took a shortcut, it was a small road, and we went through the alley.

It's not that I'm afraid of being robbed or something, after all, Haizaki and I have high enough strength.I just feel a little nostalgic for such a scene.

I remember that when I was in elementary school, Sadaharu and Renji took me home exhausted from basketball practice in the same way-although most of the time was not at night.

After all, everyone was still young at that time and didn't have much strength, so Sadaharu and Renji took turns carrying me along the way.

Why don't we come with such a young tame--that's what I thought at the time.

Only now, geographically, we are separated from each other.Such a scene has never appeared again, until today.

It is said that Haizaki is a personal heater, and it is quite warm to stay on his back like this.

Unexpectedly, Haizaki is actually surprisingly reliable...

"We are friends... Shogo."

For some reason, I suddenly wanted to ask this question, and I did.

Regarding this question, I remember that Haizaki asked me before, and I also asked myself-the answer is of course yes.Of course we are friends, although the way we get along is different from that of ordinary junior high school students.

However, I never asked Haisaki this question.

And today, for some reason, I really want to get an answer from Haizaki's mouth - to get an affirmative answer.

"Ah...that's right, what's the matter, Guangshu."

It is true that we are friends, this is a fact that is absolutely certain.

"It's nothing, Xiangwu, I just wanted to ask."

"Tsk...boring...hey! Don't hold up your glasses when I'm carrying you! I'm not responsible for falling to my death!"

Tsk... what does this kind of thing have to do with it, but... how did Haizaki know?It's a bit too fussy-the hands are all brought up, do you want to put it back halfway?How can it be.

After adjusting my glasses, I put my hand back on Haizaki's shoulder and said, "Got it, Shogo."

After walking through a small alley, I have come to the downstairs of my house.

Looking up, Haizaki said to me, "Hey, Mitsuki, you didn't turn on the light at home, do you have the key?"

I said I have, don't worry at all.

"Do you have medicine for sprains at home?"

"......some."

"Tsk...it's really troublesome..."

Then, Haizaki carried me upstairs.The lights in the corridor are voice-activated, and they automatically turn on when we walk up, which is very convenient.

When I got to the door, I said to Haizaki: "Put me down, Shogo, I want to open the door with the key."

Haizaki put it down, and handed the schoolbag to me.Then, I rang the doorbell—as a reminder.

"Hey, there is no one in your house... Ringing the doorbell is useless..."

Haizaki looked at me with a tangled face, yes, the journey was indeed quite depressing and tiring.

I straightened my glasses, turned the key into the lock, and turned my head to Haizaki with a smile, "Shogo, actually...my foot didn't hurt today."

With a click, the door opened, and with Haizaki's slightly surprised expression, all the lights inside were turned on in an instant.Everything Haizaki wanted to say was blocked in his throat.

"Happy birthday! Shogo!"
