[King of the Internet] Unique boy

"So, Ji Xia, you just joined the art department!"

???????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????

Haruka Nishikawa was originally at the back table of Echizen Jixia, but in order to communicate with Echizen Jixia more conveniently, she exchanged positions with Jixia's front desk after friendly negotiation on the second day of school, and she is now sitting backwards Looking down at Echizen Jixia who was lying on the desk with his head down, he didn't quite understand how she turned into this after she went to the art department to hand in the application form and came back?

"Yes, I've joined." She narrowed her eyes and weakly responded to Haruka Xichuan's question.

"But, don't you look very happy?" Haruka Nishikawa put his elbows on Echizen Jixia's desk, held his face in his hands, and asked her with concern.

"Ah~~~ Beauty is a disaster" Can you be happy after being tricked by a beauty?

"Huh????" Xi Chuanyao was puzzled when she heard an inexplicable exclamation from her. Why did she feel that this girl has been talking a lot lately and often said things she couldn't understand.

Echizen Jixia didn't explain, just kidding, can this kind of embarrassing experience be said casually?Just let it slowly rot in your heart.She straightened up, finally not lying down, and then looked up and saw Xi Chuanyao's concerned expression. She felt warm inexplicably, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and showed a comforting smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I ate too much for lunch today." I'm just a little supportive." In order to stop this cute girl from asking the bottom line, she had no choice but to come up with the worst possible reason.Haruka Nishikawa wanted to say something more, when the class bell rang, she saw Echizen Jixia's expression of "turn around quickly", and Wu Matsumoto walked in with an English book at the door of the classroom, ready to start class, Haruka Nishikawa murmured unhappily With a pursed mouth, he turned and sat down reluctantly.

As an Echizen Jixia who has been in the United States for more than ten years, English has become her second mother tongue, but she is never overly proud of it, but she is not high-profile if she can avoid it. For this reason, the classmates in the class Gradually, I no longer actively pay attention to how good her English is.It's not because she's modest, but because she's afraid of trouble, how much Echizen Jixia doesn't want to take the initiative to contact strangers, except for herself, only the Echizen family knows, Ito Mingen and Nishikawa Haruka are two exceptions, everyone has such a thing or two A person who feels special, be it friendship or love.

So Echizen Jixia seldom communicated with people. At the beginning, the students in the class were very curious about her English ability, but every one or two hours, someone would come to her, or ask her to say a few words in English to listen. , or took a small notebook and asked her to teach her how to learn English. During that time, she collapsed and repeatedly emphasized that she didn’t have any learning methods. It was purely because she grew up in the United States that she could speak English fluently. After a long time, everyone knew that Echizen Jixia was a weird person who didn't like to talk, so now no one came to her to talk about English issues, and she was happy and at ease.

However, just because you want to keep a low profile does not mean that others also want you to live a low-key life. Mr. Goku Matsumoto, Echizen Jika’s homeroom teacher and English teacher, is one of them. In addition to calling Echizen Jika by name in class to answer questions, he can’t wait to put this proud The students are under my nose at all times—showing off to other English teachers everywhere: This is my student, who came back from the United States, and his English is so good, envy him!Of course, it is impossible for him to speak so bluntly. After all, Matsumoto is a very restrained man. He never tells people how great Echizen Jixia's English is. It was placed in the most obvious place on his desk. Thanks to him, every teacher in the high school now knows the existence of Echizen Jixia.

But the teacher is not a student after all, so naturally he would not openly go to Group C of the first year to find Echizen Jixia to discuss academic issues with her, but Matsumoto was at ease, he enjoyed the envious eyes of some teachers, for Now, he called Echizen Jixia more and more frequently in class.So indirectly, Echizen Jixia's life is not very low-key, but with the experience of being watched as a monkey, she feels that being called by Matsumoto in class, being talked about by some teachers she doesn't know, etc. are nothing, people It's all like this, only after the comparison can we have the peace of mind to settle for the next best thing.

In all fairness, Gou Matsumoto's pronunciation is very standard. As a Japanese who can't roll his tongue by nature, he can speak English to such an extent that it cannot be described as powerful. This is also the reason why Echizen Jixia admires him.Matsumoto's lectures are very relaxed, not too lively and humorous, nor too stiff and straight. Lectures are the least people sleep, he is so capable, so that the lectures can make people relax without hypnotic effect.

The two English classes ended with the gorgeous voice of Matsumoto Wu. This time, he did not leave with his book and glasses between his hands as usual. Instead, he walked to Echizen Jixia's desk when the bell rang, and handed She has a watch, another watch?Ji Xia raised her forehead, and Matsumoto said to her: "Echizen, take this form and come to the office with me." Without waiting for Echizen Jixia's answer, he left the classroom.Ji Xia figured out Matsumoto's temperament when he said that the wind is the rain, and without asking any further questions, he obediently picked up the watch and followed him away, walking towards the teacher's office.There are not many teachers in the office at this time, Echizen Jixia walked to Matsumoto's desk and saw his eye-catching report card at a glance, the corners of his mouth twitched, he had nothing to say about Matsumoto's extremely annoying behavior Said, thinking in my heart, as long as you are happy, you are a teacher and you are right in whatever you do!And Matsumoto looked at Echizen Jixia without beating around the bush, and went straight to the topic: "Echizen-san, I hope you can run for the student council"

"Teacher, can I refuse?" Echizen Ji Xia looked straight at him, his gaze was calm, neither dodging nor hiding.

"What's the reason?" Matsumoto was not in a hurry, he wanted to know the reason why this girl had been unwilling to show her true self.

"I have mild crowd phobia, I dare not speak in public, I can't speak when there are too many people, so I am not suitable." She answered truthfully, Echizen Jixia's crowd phobia is not congenital, It was her fourth birthday, and Echizen Nanjiro took her and Ryoma to the amusement park, but because of the crowd, she got lost. She searched for a long time and looked for many places, but she couldn't find Echizen Nanjiro, that was her first time. Feeling suffocating despair once, she knew for the first time that people are really a terrifying existence!The four-year-old little Jixia was found by Echizen Nanjiro in the Ferris wheel. To avoid the crowd, she ran in alone. Because of hunger and thirst and the lack of air circulation, she fainted inside. After her fourth birthday, Echizen Jixia was sick. Suffering from a mental illness, what she resists most in her life is: large crowds and amusement parks.So when Matsumoto made this suggestion, Echizen Jixia instinctively resisted. Although she is not seriously ill now, she can't do it in the face of a group of strangers.

Matsumoto also didn't expect that this child would speak out his private affairs so straightforwardly. Matsumoto looked at Echizen Jixia apologetically. This was not his intention. He just wanted her to not be buried. I hope that in a school like Lihai University that respects the strong, Echizen Jixia can live a more brilliant life. He prefers outstanding children. This is probably the "common problem" of all teachers, and Matsumoto is no exception.

After thinking for a while, he said to Echizen Jixia: "Echizen, as an adult, I can't bear to push you to the edge of the cliff, but as a teacher, I want to help you cross this hurdle. If you are not brave, how can you Knowing that you can’t do it? If you don’t start, how will you know that you are not suitable? I still say the same thing, I hope you will run for the student union next Wednesday, and you have five days to prepare. If you have any difficulties, Come to me anytime." Matsumoto's tone was very firm, no matter what, he would force Echizen Jixia to make a decision.

"Teacher Matsumoto, I..." Ji Xia was a little embarrassed, she could understand what Matsumoto I did, and she had good intentions for him, but she didn't have the confidence to do it.

Matsumoto Wu said before she refused, "Echizen, you take the watch back first, think about it carefully, and I will give you the answer at school tomorrow." Echizen Jixia knew that today he would not be able to argue the result no matter what, so he nodded, "Teacher, I'll go back to the classroom first."

"go"

*********

After school, Ji Xia didn't go to the club, because Yukimura Seichi said that it was enough to report three times a week, so now, she plans to go home directly, carrying her schoolbag, thinking of that watch, and remembering what Mr. Matsumoto said, she has The urge to throw the schoolbag into the sea of ​​Kanagawa, just worried all the way and dangled all the way.When Echizen Jixia passed by the community kindergarten, she casually glanced inside. She stopped, and saw the poor little boy with sandbags piled up inside, Xiao Yui, and Nuo Da’s kindergarten was only left with Xiao Yui playing alone. Fence, greet Yui: "Yui——"

Hearing someone calling herself, Xiao Yui squatted on the ground and raised her head. She saw Echizen Jixia outside the fence at a glance. She raised a small face and ran towards Echizen Jixia. She didn't care if the sandbags scattered under the ground, she ran to Echizen Jixia was in front of her, but separated by a fence, Xiao Yuyi could only look at her aggrievedly, looking at Echizen Jixia's soft heart, wishing to climb over the fence to take her out, Yuyi stretched out a hand, and grabbed Jixia The corner of her skirt raised her apple face, and she softly called out "Sister~~~"

In order to match her height, Echizen Jixia squatted down, reached out to touch Yui's little head, and asked her: "Xiao Yui, why are you playing alone? Hasn't mother come to pick up Yui yet?"

"Mom, I'm not off work." Yui is used to staying in kindergarten so late every day. Yui's mother Yoko Shinjo is not a typical Japanese housewife. She has a job of her own. She is a fashion designer, although she is not well-known. Big, but still busy, I come home very late every day, not to mention Yui’s father, an engineer, who is not at home all year round. The time when Yui is picked up every day is almost exactly the time when Echizen Jixia returned home, but today Yui's mother seems to be very busy, and she hasn't come to pick up Yui yet.Ji Xia couldn't bear to see her playing alone, but she had no choice but to pick up her daughter without saying hello, and the kindergarten teacher would never let her go. After thinking about it, she decided to In this way, she stayed with Yui through a fence until Yui's mother came to pick her up.

At this time, the teacher from Yui Kindergarten hurried over, picked up Yui, and stared at Ji Xia with a defensive face. Yui turned to look at the teacher and then at Echizen Jixia. She still didn't understand what she meant by this move. Smiling awkwardly, well, I was regarded as a child thief...

"Excuse me, who are you?" The teacher took a few steps back with Yui in his arms, fixed his eyes on Echizen Jixia, and asked carefully.

Ji Xia waved her hands and explained to her: "You misunderstood, I am Yui's neighbor, and I live in this community." As if to confirm what Echizen Jixia said, Xiao Yuyi sweetly called Ji Xia 'sister', The teacher holding Yui gradually put down his guard, and apologized to Echizen Jixia in embarrassment. Her cell phone rang, and it seemed that it was Yui's mother calling.Yui's mother over there didn't know what to say, and Yui's teacher exclaimed,

"You left work so late? But Yui..." She glanced down at Yui and touched her small face, her tone full of embarrassment.

"In that case, there is no way."

"Ah, by the way, it seems that Yui's neighbor is here. You see, she needs to take Yui home first?" She called Echizen Jixia, motioning for her to talk to Yui's mother.

"Mossy, Mrs. Xincheng?"

"So it's you, Echizen-san, it's like this, I have to work overtime for a long time today, can you help me take Yui home first? She may be very hungry, and the kindergarten teacher is about to leave work, Yui has no place I'm gone." Yoko Shinjo was very anxious on the other end of the phone, thinking that her daughter might be so hungry that her eyes were teary, and she couldn't bear it.

Echizen Jixia looked at Yui's cute and cute face, and agreed to Yui's mother's request, "Yes, I will take Yui back to my house first, and come pick her up when you get home."

"Okay, thank you very much, Echizen-san" Yui's mother quickly hung up the phone, she was really too busy.

"Xiao Yui, can you go home with my sister? I'll pick you up at my sister's house after my mother comes home from get off work." Yui nodded, and obediently took Echizen Jixia's hand home.
