[Net King] Gently kill the crane

After concluding the words, Tsurumi made a serious correction.

One afternoon, first he was insulted by a strange girl, then he was ridiculed by his relatives and friends, and then he was ridiculed by the person he hated most. .

"Oh, I thought 'garbage' would be polite to a lady."

"I didn't know Atobe-sama would mind being polite." She casually continued to complain, and the piercing sight on her body made her wake up instantly, "Oh no, I mean, thank you Atobe-sama for your mercy."

"I don't have time to joke with you." The index finger knuckles were clasped, and the folder on the desktop was tapped, and the chin was raised slightly, "Tomorrow is the preliminaries in the school. I don't want to say it on behalf of the honor of the class, but—at least don't procrastinate." Uncle Ben is behind. Before the game starts, memorize these contents."

Tsurumi bit her lip hard.

Yes, she is not good.For three days, he was either thinking about his younger brother or about the support team, but he only flipped through the competition materials that should be memorized.However, being questioned aggressively by people, especially Keigo Atobe, he didn't want to admit that he was wrong at all.

So what if you don't recite it?Anyway...

"Anyway, in this school, no one is so stupid as to take it seriously. Even if I can't answer a single question, I'm destined not to lose..."

I don't know where the anger came from, and he uttered his slander in a grand manner, the voice was not loud, but it was clear enough to hear.

The air froze instantly, and the discussion room fell into a suffocating silence.

Outside the room, the wind blew and the raindrops slammed on the glass windows, screaming thrillingly.

After a while, Ajibu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Oh?" He sneered and curled up half of his mouth, "You really think so? Stupid woman."

Yes.Tsurumi kept silent and turned his eyes away.Is not it?May I ask, on this campus, who dares to disobey Keigo Atobe openly.

"Do you think my uncle cares about false victories? What do you think of me as a wild dog licking the prey?"

The aggressive tone is full of strange self-confidence from unknown sources.

"My uncle likes to win, just because this uncle deserves it."

lie.

"My uncle formulates the rules of the game and controls this campus, relying on strength. If you are not convinced, you can naturally challenge. This uncle respects the challenger, not a rat who only dares to talk in the dark corner."

strength?Even though he is weak in Chinese, yet he represents his class in the competition without being elected, how dare he claim to be strong?

"My uncle once thought you were just stupid, but he still thinks highly of you."

I also think highly of you.It's really sad that people who live under the protection of privileges think they have strength.

"Put away your inexplicable stubbornness, memorize the information before the competition."

Please also put away your arrogant face.Poor fellow blinded by flattery.

The four eyes met, and the flames radiated silently, and no one was willing to give in and show weakness.

19 The battle of two men

Chapter Nineteen

In the end, Miyoshi Tsurumi was the first to back down.

It's no good going head-to-head with Keigo Atobe.She is not Ryo Shishido, who dares to vent her dissatisfaction directly from time to time, nor is she a Ninja Yushi, who possesses strength that Atobu dare not underestimate.No matter how much she yells unwillingly in her heart, she is just a timid Miyoshi Tsurumi.

Forced to pull out a flattering smile, Tsurumi leaned over and picked up the data set on the table. "I'm sorry, I will finish memorizing it before the competition."

snort.With a noncommittal cold snort, Atobe didn't say anything to embarrass her.Let her go easily.

Lying down in front of the washbasin, splashing the rushing water on the face, the flushed face gradually cooled down, and the hot brain also gradually cooled down.

What did you do?On impulse, he confronted Keigo Atobe without any reason.

Is the dissatisfaction that usually builds up finally getting out of hand?

Looking at the naked and indignant self in the mirror that he hadn't seen for a long time, Tsurumi gave a wry smile.How long has it been since you did something that directly expresses your emotions?

I have been a man with my tail between my legs for so long, that I forgot that the word "straightforward" still remains in my heart.

Since when did you know it?Holding your head up all the time is asking for a beating, and being too proud is an unforgivable sin.The lower grades have to bow their heads respectfully to the seniors.

Unknowingly, this rule has penetrated into the bone marrow.

That's why it's annoying. . "

It's not because I like to bow my head, it's just because I'm oppressed and bullied.This is the rule of society. The shackles imposed on the body since childhood cannot be broken away, and resistance will only be suppressed more violently.So he lowered his head with tears in his eyes and called out "senior" respectfully.

She will remain silent and grow until she is strong enough to break the ice.

This is the rule of the game that Miyoshi Tsurumi has always followed.

But this person came suddenly, and with an attitude of contempt for everything, he broke all the rules and routines.

There are not many capable people, but only Atobe can do this without bearing the consequences of condemnation from the outside world.Just because he is the biggest benefactor of Ice Empress Academy and the only son of the consortium family.

So challenge the authority, so you won't be attacked by the school.

It's not that I never thought that if the protagonist of the revolution was Miyoshi Tsurumi, or Shishido Ryo, or any ordinary student, the result I would face would be to be ordered to drop out of school or to be forced to reflect.

Unforgivable, this brutal denial of her way of life is an unfair unspoken rule that is more resentful than the brutal rules of society.

Miyoshi Tsurumi couldn't open her heart to accept someone who used her natural wealth to crush her fragile self-esteem.Even this feeling of being crushed feels more like wishful thinking and excess self-awareness.

She hated it even more, and had to live humblely in the new rules of the game formulated by Keigo Atobe, but she was able to do well and be proud of her ugly self.

Was it the proud and conceited Keigo Atobe, or the sensitive and inferior Tsurumi Miyoshi?

She thought hard but still couldn't figure it out.

Such a dark thought, up to now, Tsurumi has never shared it with anyone.

Shindo Ryo, a childhood sweetheart, would not understand the struggle in her heart. As for her good friend Hanawa Naruto, who was originally the only daughter of a wealthy family, even if she listened to her, she would only get a few words, "Tsurumi's thoughts are too much." It's dark." and other meaningless poisonous words.

No one can tell the trouble.

Even hating him openly would feel guilty.

He can only suffocate the malice in his heart in a dark corner, slowly fermenting, and gradually expands to the point that it cannot be concealed.

But it reflected himself even uglier.

"You'd better beat me up."

Clenching his fists with both hands, he stood at attention outside the classroom door as if he was dead. Miyoshi Tsurumi stared at Atobe steadfastly.

In those juvenile comics, the protagonist can evolve to the ultimate level as long as he works hard overnight, so as to win a decisive victory on the battlefield the next day.

However, life is not a cartoon.

In other words, even in manga, Miyoshi Tsurumi is not the one chosen by fate.She is just an ordinary weakling, whether it is a seed explosion or a miracle of the small universe, it is destined that nothing will happen to her.

Even if the night of burning lights lasts until midnight, the knowledge points in the data set will not fly into my mind as expected.Suppressing the doze off until the early hours of the morning, the result is nothing more than waking up early this morning, my mind is still empty, and the contents of the surprise memorization fly away.

"I can't do it." Under Atobe's unpredictable eyes, Tsurumi lowered his head.

Atobe turned his indifferent eyes, walked steadily into the venue, and left Miyoshi Tsurumi alone at the door.

Obviously, it is a good opportunity to beat the dog in the water.Atobe didn't take the opportunity to laugh, as a tribute to her arrogant performance yesterday.Miyoshi Tsurumi stared at his fading back in astonishment, hesitated for a moment, then moved his feet as if awakening from a dream, and trotted to follow.

……

"The answer is 175." Subconsciously stroked the tear mole, and hummed softly from the end of his nose.Looking from the side, the tall bridge of the nose almost proudly tilted up to the ceiling.

Tsurumi lightly pressed his temple with his index finger knuckles, and smiled self-deprecatingly.

It turned out that the generous disregard was just because he didn't have any hope for her.

During the game, Atobe pressed the buttons alone and agreed to match freely, without the support of his teammates at all.Winning rounds and rounds so easily, Miyoshi Tsurumi's existence in Group A of the second year was like a joke, and she was not even qualified to be a vase—her appearance was not as good as the dumb blonde next to her My uncle is enough to see.

It was like sitting on pins and needles until the end of the whole game, and the judges announced the result.

Tsurumi, who went from embarrassment to numbness, stood up like a stiff doll, applauded, and then sat down blankly, accepting the admiring gazes projected from all directions - only to Keigo Atobe.I don't know if there is some contempt for her incompetence along the way.

"Representing the class without being elected, how dare you claim your strength?" She once arrogantly laughed at Atobe's thoughts in her heart, but at this moment, it returned fiercely on her own face.

A useless hindrance assigned by the teacher.It's not Keigo Atobe, it's her Miyoshi Tsurumi.

Until he stood on the podium, all the sensory cells of Miyoshi Tsurumi were sluggishly numb.Enthusiastic applause, ear-piercing laughter, everything was vaguely like the sound of another world.As soon as she got the signal from the host that "you can step down", she hurried off, ignoring the young man behind her who was still immersed in narcissism, and walked out of the arena in the Science Building.

On the podium, Atobu, who was flirting coquettishly with his forehead hair, stopped and glanced in the direction where the girl left.
