[Comprehensive] Escape from shame is useless

There is a tall cherry tree standing on the back of the library. The shadow of the tree is mottled. When the autumn wind hits, a few withered and yellow leaves curl up and fall on the shoulder of the blond girl.The leaf, which should have been light as nothing, seemed to weigh over a thousand catties at this moment, making it impossible for her to straighten up.

Watanabe supported the wall with one hand, his legs subconsciously gathered together, trembling slightly.

"Is it cold, Watanabe-san? It's already autumn, you'd better put on your school uniform and jacket."

Opposite her, my wife Yuno was dressed in school uniform as usual, buttoning every button of the shirt rigorously, and the skirt was clearly pleated, keeping the most elegant and dignified arc hanging down at all times.The same is true of her smile that always hangs on the corner of her mouth. It is less rigid and more frivolous. It is always so just right that people can't fault it.

She is a model for all women in Lihai University, the object of everyone's admiration, and the embodiment of longing.

Of course, it is also Watanabe Sayoko's yearning.

But just now, the goddess who reminded her to wear more seemed to say something strange.

"My wife, you, you were joking just now, weren't you?"

Yuno noticed that when she said this, her eyes were wide open, and her nails even dug into the cracks in the wall.

"No way, Watanabe-san. The more desperate you are, the more you have to straighten your back." She stood on tiptoe, took two light steps closer, smiled and blinked her left eye, " You also want to be a classy lady, right?"

She didn't answer her own question.

Watanabe's brain has not yet realized what this means, and his body has already taken a step back reflexively, distanced himself from Yuno.

Yuno didn't continue to approach, she held her chin in distress, and asked her back: "You trouble me like this, Watanabe-san. I thought you would understand this without having to say it. After all, you have always been a very smart woman. Why do I have to make it so clear?"

"I, I..." Watanabe trembled his lips, he didn't know what to say, he just felt cold all over and could not stop shivering.

"If you do something wrong, you should be punished. You must understand this truth, right?" Yuno said with a gentle smile.

"I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it, my wife, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"

Watanabe's face became paler and paler, and he kept begging in a low voice, but the other party didn't waver, just looked at her with pity, without saying a word.

"I don't want to take it, but I can't find a chance to put it back. You must know that I didn't lie to you, and I didn't lie to Blackwood."

The appearance of Jasmine's name caused Yuno's expression to change for a moment, but this change...

"Well, I know you didn't mean to."

"what--"

"I also know that you are actually just curious. You just want to see it, and you don't intend to keep it for yourself. You are the eldest lady of the Watanabe family. Even if your family is in trouble, your eyelids will not be so shallow. Besides, your He also has a much better brain than most ignorant people, and knows how to weigh pros and cons."

"My wife..." She knew it, and my wife Yuno must understand.

"This is just a trivial matter, and it doesn't even make sense to report it to the school. Even if the school finds out, it will calm down. After all, Jasmine herself has no intention of fussing about it."

"Then I-"

"But no, you still have to drop out of school."

Before Watanabe's smile could reach his eyes, it froze on his face.The hand hanging by her side tightly grasped her chest, as if by doing so, this terrifying and oppressive atmosphere that made her unable to breathe could relax a little bit.

"Why...you clearly know..."

"It's very simple, because you touched Jasmine's things." Yuno twisted her long hair hanging on her chest, and said casually: "I remember I said it at the beginning of school, I hope everyone can have a good time with Jasmine." Get along', I believe Watanabe-san must still remember, right?"

She moved her mouth, and said dryly: "But, classmate Heimu, she said that she forgave me..."

"It's because she is ignorant, because she is too kind, thinking that everyone in this world is good. There are many things she doesn't understand. For those who make mistakes, punishment is more useful than forgiveness." She even asked for Watanabe's opinion, "I'm sure you feel the same way, right?"

She failed to answer the question.

Just now, she was still complaining about Heimu's stupidity in her heart, and thought she was a nice person and a fool.Now that the situation is approaching, she suddenly realizes that she is the stupidest person...

"I am willing to accept punishment, whether it is an apology or compensation, even if it is a penalty! But my wife—" Watanabe finally gave up what she insisted on, let go of the hand holding the wall, and straightened He knelt down in front of Yuno.

"Only dropping out of school, only dropping out of school is not allowed, please, please!" She can't make trouble for her father at this juncture, and she can't be dropped out of school at this time!

"Do you think that if you do such a thing, I will let you stay with Jasmine? Watanabe-san, you are so smart and educated. I used to think that you would stand out and be the one to be her friend." Yuno Lifting her chin condescendingly, she shook her head, "It's a pity that you are already 'dirty', so you have to throw it away. I am also very disappointed and sad."

Dirty, throw away...

To my wife, Yuno, is she already a dirty rag?Has the value of being a human being disappeared?

She couldn't support her body again, and sat down on her shoes.

Just when Watanabe was desperate, a third person's voice suddenly appeared in this inaccessible place.The familiar voice said with some uncertainty, hesitantly:

"Yuno?"

At this moment, she seemed to hear the sound of the whole world turning again.

Under the cherry blossom tree, Jasmine also walked towards them on a field of dead leaves.In the end, he stopped between the two of them, and his eyes kept moving back and forth on them, as if he still didn't understand the situation.

"Jasmine, why did you suddenly come to this kind of place?" Yuno was the first to speak.

"I wanted to ask you about the menu for dinner. I just finished my job at the club. I saw you coming in from the tennis court, so I came here directly." She stopped her gaze at Watanabe who was still kneeling for a while, and then turned back to Yuno's face. "Yuno, what did you mean by that?"

"Which one are you talking about?" She wasn't sure how much Jasmine had heard, and if not, it would be convenient for her to muddle through.

"It's just... it's dirty, I need to throw away that sentence." She frowned puzzled, "That sounds like Watanabe-san? But Watanabe-san is a person, not a thing, so how can you throw it away?"

Hearing this, Watanabe suddenly realized one thing, if her affairs can turn around, then the last hope must be—but as if she understood her thoughts at the moment, Yuno gave her the first step. A warning look.The blond girl trembled, frightened by the terrifying look in her eyes, and finally had no face to ask for help.

Since they were standing close enough, Jasmine immediately noticed the eye contact between them.At the beginning, she didn't think about that because she had a natural closeness and trust to Yuno, and she felt that she would definitely not do any "bad things", but now...

"Yuno, are you... bullying Watanabe-san?"

Yuno laughed directly, "How come, why should I bully her?"

Jasmine also smiled, "That's right, then what are you talking about?"

"Talking about holding her accountable for doing something wrong."

Jasmine also blinked in wonder, and asked, "Hasn't she already taken the burden?"

Bear it?Have it?

As soon as these words came out, not only Yoshino, but even Watanabe looked up at her inexplicably.

Kuroki Jasmine, which worldline are you talking about?Why both of them have no impression?

"Ever since she took the brooch, she couldn't eat and couldn't sleep well. She wanted to return it to me, but she was afraid of being misunderstood by me and afraid that the police would catch her. Be quick, thinking that you will never do such a stupid thing again."

After waiting for a long time, finally realizing that she had finished speaking, Yuno raised her eyebrows: "You call this punishment?"

"Yes."

Facing this innocent smile, Yuno patted her head helplessly, "You are too young to understand these things. Forget it, I will explain to you slowly when I get back."

Bypassing Jasmine who stood in front of her, Yuno finally said to Watanabe: "You should understand what I mean, go back and pack today, and go through the withdrawal procedures tomorrow."

"My wife, I—"

"What do you mean by dropping out? Why did you drop out?" Jasmine also interrupted suddenly.

"It has nothing to do with you, okay, okay, you'd better get your schoolbag quickly, aren't you going to go shopping?"

Yuno pushed her outside.When Jasmine, who didn't think too much at first, also passed by Watanabe, she noticed from the corner of her eyes that her eyes fell into despair for a moment, and she suddenly stopped walking.

"Yuno, is it because of me?"

Seeing that she finally got serious, Yuno realized that today's matter could not be fooled around, so she simply said it directly.

"Yes, she stole your things, I asked her to drop out of school, isn't that a matter of course?"

"Where is it taken for granted?" Jasmine also frowned, "She was just careless, and she didn't do it on purpose. She has already suffered enough condemnation from her conscience, and she also understands that she has done something wrong. If you sincerely repent, that's fine." Ah. Take ten thousand steps back and say that even if she really stole something, according to the school rules, it will be a demerit at most, why do you have to drop out of school?"

"Oh, that's why I said you don't understand." Yuno pressed the center of her eyebrows helplessly, "You are too young to understand the dangers of the human heart. Don't look at how grateful they are for your kindness on the surface, just say 'thank you' Is it because the upper and lower mouths come as soon as they open their mouths, maybe they are laughing at you behind your back?"

"But I don't think I'm stupid." Jasmine retorted solemnly, "I don't think I did anything wrong, no, I think what I did was right, so I did it. It's their fault that they think I'm stupid, It's not Yuno, you think I'm stupid, what do those irrelevant people say to me?"

"It will be too late when they are so close to you that they affect your mood, or even hurt you." She said earnestly, "I'm taking precautions before they happen, do you understand?"

"So do you want people to drop out of school because of a little mistake? This school belongs to everyone, not me alone. You can't let everyone who you think is a threat drop out of school, can you?"

As soon as the words came out, Yuno smiled arrogantly.

"If necessary."

Jasmine also froze for a moment, as if she couldn't believe what she just heard.

"Why do you want to do this?"

"I want to give you the best environment, Jasmine too." Yuno touched her face with a smile, but there was something crazy in her tone that she was completely unaware of.

"You chose the High School Attached to Lihai University, but it's not that good, it's not clean enough, and it may have a bad impact on your growth, so I have to make it better. I think you are happy every day Yes, stay away from those messy people and messy things, you can face relaxed interpersonal relationships and do what you want, isn't that good?"

Jasmine also opened her eyes, but was unable to say a word for a long time.

She suddenly remembered that Miota once broke the news to her, saying that before she came, Yuno told all the students in the school that everyone should take good care of her.At that time, she didn't take it to heart at all, thinking that it was an ordinary introduction of "this is my friend, I hope everyone can get along well with her".

In the few days when she just transferred to another school, she still wondered that the classmates in this school really didn't gossip at all, and never asked her some personal questions around her, as if they were not curious at all.According to Yuno's current statement, it's not that they are not curious, but... they dare not be too curious.

[I'm Li Hai's big bearer. 】

What kind of hidden meaning does this sentence have, she didn't really understand until this moment.

This is not only the respect from the teachers and students of the whole school, but also the terrible authority that can make an ordinary student drop out of school at any time.

She couldn't imagine how heavy the hearts of the students had been with her since this semester.I don't know, it's okay, if they know that if they make a mistake, they will face the crisis of being expelled from school, will they really have a way to talk to her with a normal heart?If she did something wrong, would they dare to tell her to her face?If they have a problem with her behavior, can they only choose to suffer in silence?

Look at Sayoko Watanabe who is kneeling on the ground with all her dignity lost, what else can I say?

This is just what she saw. In the corner she didn't see, what did Yuno do to the people in this school for more than 3 months?

It turns out that she has been standing at the apex of campus bullying, standing in the position of the perpetrator without knowing it?

"already……"

"What?" Her voice was so low that even Yuno, who was close at hand, couldn't hear it.

"Enough is enough, don't do this kind of thing anymore!" Jasmine also grabbed Yuno's hand and shouted with red eyes: "What's the point of this kind of false interpersonal relationship? I would rather everyone hate me and reject me. Live like this every day!"

"What are you talking about?" Yuno didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You are so cute, it's too late for everyone to like you, how could they hate you? But you don't know, there are all kinds of birds in the forest, I always have to deal with it before I can rest assured. I just knew you would think too much, so I kept avoiding you. Sigh, I was too careless this time~"

"No! The one who doesn't understand is you, Yuno!"

"I understand, I really understand." She directly interrupted Jasmine's words, "You are just too kind, always worrying about other people's feelings. You always think that everyone in the world is as good as you, so it is so easy to believe Others can forgive everything. But you don't understand, some people can't believe it, and they don't deserve to be forgiven. They don't understand that your kindness is the most precious thing in the world, and they don't understand how heavy your trust in them is. , they will only betray you for their own self-interest. Your heart is so soft, it will be hurt."

"If I get hurt because of it, that's my own choice."

"But I will love you, Jasmine too. I don't want you to be hurt. You must understand my feelings, right?"

Why do you say such a thing, you know that you said such a thing, I can't refute you.

Why do you say such things!

So crafty!

"Anyway," she turned her head and let go of Yuno's hand, not looking into her loving eyes, "I don't agree with Watanabe's withdrawal from school. I have already promised her to forgive her, Yuno, you do this It made me go back on my promise."

Seeing her looking away, Yuno also suppressed her smile, glanced at her without a trace of emotion and was still kneeling on the ground, she had given up struggling, and waited indifferently for the person who gave up.Jasmine also looks easy to talk to, but she's actually the type who won't be able to pull three bulls back once she makes up her mind.Forget it, there's no need to affect Jasmine's mood for such a guy, presumably she won't dare to continue making troubles in the future, so just let it go.

"Since you say that, then fine, I'll listen to you." She tilted her head flatteringly, looked into Jasmine's eyes, and said coquettishly, "I want to eat puffs, Jasmine too."

"Well, Yuno help me get my schoolbag, see you at the school gate."

Yuno raised an eyebrow.Why, you still want to talk to this Watanabe alone?

Suppressing the unhappiness in her heart, she nodded obediently, turned around and left the open space gracefully.

After her figure completely disappeared, Jasmine slowly moved in front of Watanabe and squatted down.

"I'm sorry, Watanabe-san, I scared you."

"Why are you apologizing? Why are you pleading for me? Obviously I took your things." She stared blankly at the ground, her mind was in a mess.

"Didn't I tell you that you have already been punished and repented, so I have forgiven you for that matter." Jasmine was not angry either, but instead answered her question patiently, "As for why you have to apologize... Yuno I did such a thing, and it was for me, so there is nothing I can do other than apologize."

"Are you an idiot? My wife is absolutely right. If you leave it alone, you will be sold out one day." She raised her head in disbelief, and met those gentle and tolerant green eyes.Suddenly, a surge of sadness surged up, and it couldn't be stopped, and his vision became blurred in the blink of an eye.

"Yes, yes, I'm an idiot." She responded with a good temper, and gently stroked the girl's long golden hair.

"What, I'm serious, you really don't understand my wife's painstaking efforts at all!"

She didn't know what she was talking about, obviously she should thank her well at this time, obviously she saved herself, but when she saw her smiling face like a good old man, she couldn't restrain her anger.

Watanabe wiped his tears stubbornly, but his mouth was not willing to give in at all.

"If you forgive everyone without principle, you will be bullied by us. Do you understand?"

Jasmine also heard the words and immediately laughed out loud.

"What's so funny!" Watanabe roared angrily with a face that was completely crying.

"No, I'm just a little puzzled, why do you all think I have no principles?" Jasmine also smoothed her messy hair bit by bit, and said calmly, "I forgive you not because I am kind. , I am a good person, but because you are the one who made the mistake, I forgive you."

Watanabe was taken aback when he heard the words, even the tears stopped for half a second.

"What... do you mean?"

"You may not remember. Once I went to the library and wanted to find a rare novel. It took you more than ten minutes with me to find it, one shelf after another."

Watanabe didn't expect that she would say such a thing suddenly, and she really didn't remember it.

"I'm not helping you, I'm just doing my duty as a librarian."

"Really? But it's a big favor for me." Jasmine didn't pay attention to her "excuse", and continued: "Also, you were my front desk for the midterm exam last semester. I forgot to bring the eraser, yes You gave me half of it."

She thought about it carefully, but still had no impression.

"Anyone will give it." When encountering this kind of help during the exam, anyone will help, so it's no big deal.

"Well, isn't that enough?" She rested her chin in distress, "And, there was a physical education class, Sakurai-san was hit on the nose by a volleyball, and she bled a lot. You were the one who accompanied her to the infirmary and helped her clean up the blood. , and lent her her clothes, you always remember that, right?"

"That's because she is my friend." Isn't it a matter of course that she treats Yuanzi well?

"...Watanabe-san," even Jasmine was a little annoyed by the other party's serious retort, "So you have such a troublesome personality?"

"you--"

"Then let me ask the most direct question, why didn't you throw away the brooch? If you throw it away, nothing will happen, right?"

She blinked, turned her head away and said sullenly: "That's something very important to you, even if you don't know its value, I can see how much you like it."

"It's very important to me, and I like it very much, that's right. But what does this have to do with you?" Jasmine also asked back.

"..."

"So, Mr. Watanabe, you don't realize how good you are, right? You are such a good person, you make a mistake once in a while, and you still reflect on it like that. Why should I not forgive you?"

Watanabe was completely overwhelmed by this theory, and the wall protecting him that stood in front of him collapsed.

【You're so cute, it's too late for everyone to like you, why would they hate you? 】My wife is right, who doesn't like a person like Heimu, and who would hate her?

He just gave a wry smile twice, and then he started to cry again.

"It turns out that the stupid person has always been me..."

The author has something to say: Merry Christmas everyone.
