Lion King

, I'll go back first. "

Kenji shook his hand at me.

"Good night, Li Yang."

"Good night, Kenji."

After walking a few meters away, Huaxing's helpless voice came from behind.

"The relationship between brother and sister is too bad..."

This is not what we want.

A gust of wind hit, and the moon was covered by clouds. I stood in the shadow of the clouds, sighed, and looked back at Kenji.He straightened up from the bushes, as if he was just trying to escape from me, his shoulders relaxed, and he let out a heavy breath.He glanced at me when he looked up, quickly avoided his eyes, then returned to me, slightly raised his hand and shook me.

There was a sudden tingling pain on my right wrist, as if reminding me that the person of the same age who said goodbye to me stiffly in front of me was my blood relative.

I should be kinder to him, after all he is trying to be kinder to me too.

So I also raised my hand and shook him, and when I turned around to leave, I bumped into the arms of a hard and warm person——

My crush, object of obsession, Kanagawa high school basketball emperor Mu Shenichi, is looking down at me with wide eyes.

"Huh, Fujiwara?"

I grabbed his arm, made a silent gesture at him, and dragged him all the way back to the hotel lobby.

chapter36Imagine

Mu Shen has a strong physique. If it was normal, he would not let a girl tease and tease him for no reason. He could easily get rid of me by just raising his arms.

However, he just showed doubts on his face, and walked a few steps to walk side by side with me, and I let go of the hand holding his arm, and in an instant, he changed into the appearance of walking side by side.

"That...just now...someone seems to be dating in the garden, it's not good to disturb them like this, so I...that, that is to say..."

"I see."

Mu Shen's concise answer cut off my increasingly flustered explanation. He crossed his arms, nodded affirmatively, and continued following my words.

"I also noticed that both of them are very tall. The boy is about 1.9 meters tall, and the girl looks about this tall—"

While talking, he gestured with his hand about ten centimeters above my head.

"It's...a good match, it seems."

Although the moonlight was bright, it was night after all, and the lack of light blurred the faces of Hanakata and Kenji. After my playful play, Mu Shenyi actually believed that it was a couple who were dating.

Nerves are not so thick, MAKI.

However, I like it.

Imagining Kenji wearing a summer yukata on a date with Hanakata, I couldn't help but chuckle.Mu Shen turned sideways and approached me, "Huh?"

"...is there anything funny?"

I quickly shook my hand.

"I, I was just thinking about the couple just now...it would be funny if they wore yukatas."

Mu Shen once again said "huh?", thought for a moment, and then laughed.

"Did you see their faces?"

I nodded.

"It must not be a combination of beauties and handsome men... Hey, could it be that the tall one is a woman?"

More and more outrageous, but full of interesting imagination.

In my mind, I pictured a tall and strong flower-shaped figure wearing a dress and high-heeled shoes, being held in the arms of my macho brother, I patted Mu Shenyi on the shoulder, and laughed until tears flowed out.

Mu Shenyi's originally serious expression also instantly cracked, his head turned to the other side, his hands clenched into fists to his lips, and his shoulders shook violently up and down.

The two of us laughed like idiots in a hotel lobby with only front desk clerks.

The cool air blown by the air conditioner swept over the neck, bringing the coolness that made the skin tremble.But the heart under the skin was beating violently.

It was obviously just a funny scene that couldn’t happen, but I couldn’t breathe from laughing, grabbing the hem of Mu Shen’s T-shirt and shaking it from side to side. Laughing with all his might, but still leaking out.

How stupid to do such a silly thing on such a beautiful summer night.

But so happy.Not only because of Kenji's women's clothing in his imagination, but also because of the throbbing heartbeat when he is alone with the person he likes.

On the eve of the National High School Athletic Conference, I experienced the once-in-a-lifetime youth, as well as the secret love and heartbeat that would not feel ashamed in adolescence.

It's a small thing, but after five years, ten years, 20 years, I will always remember the stupid thing about two people giggling in the hall for no reason.

Mu Shenyi and I laughed for a long time, the front desk on duty looked at us inexplicably, but when his eyes collided with Mu Shenyi's in the air, it seemed that he was afraid of being cleaned because he hid adult books under the pillow Like a teenager that his mother found, he avoided the emperor's gaze without any purpose with a swift gesture.

Hey, come on, he's only 16 years old, he's a very young, cute and fluffy boy!

This age is exactly the age of the main character in Weekly Shonen Jump!

I clutched the corner of Mu Shenyi's clothes and walked to the elevator room. Because of the different floors, we said goodnight to each other here.I live on a lower floor. When I got out of the elevator and waved back to Mu Shen, he raised his hand and moved his palm horizontally at the tip of his nose a few times, as if he was measuring a person's height.I couldn't help laughing again.

That happened to be as high as the top of my head could go when I was standing next to him.

chapter37Injury

The opening of the National Sports Conference is an exciting event, but for me who only watched the Hainan game, the time outside the game is not so youthful.

To ask why?

Because my wise and powerful brother was injured and died.

When he played against Fengyu High School, his brother was advancing all the way. Seeing that victory was in sight, he was elbowed by Fengyu's team members, and a gash of about two centimeters was cut above the eyebrow of his left eye, and blood gushed out immediately.It's a good thing I went to watch his game, otherwise, once my mother finds out that I disregarded brotherhood and failed to be with my brother at the first time, my pocket money would definitely be deducted.

I happened to be standing next to my brother when he was injured and left the field. The Fengyu team who injured him showed no guilt at all. This made me very angry, so I gave him the middle finger.Unexpectedly, instead of thanking me, Kenji slapped my hand off with his bloody hand and scolded me in a low voice: "What are you doing?!"

... Hit you, I will really hit you!

Although I thought so in my heart, but after all, brotherhood is there, I snorted at him angrily, helped him hold down the gauze to stop the bleeding, and helped him to the medical room.

The wound was deeper than expected. The doctor sewed three stitches on Kenji, and then pasted a long strip of gauze. I took a photo of him with the Laptop and faxed it to my mother.Later, I heard that the team member who injured Kenji has since gained a nickname, "Ace Killer".

It sounds cool, but it's really ugly.

Ah, by the way, even though I don't want to admit it, Kenji's face is still pretty, even with gauze on his forehead and blood that hasn't been wiped off his face.

After treating the wound, facing a strange woman who was holding a Polaroid and slapped their ace card fiercely, the Xiangyang team members crowded together like enoki mushrooms, and stared at Kenji and me alternately.

Probably because my appearance is easier to impress others, when I was watching the game in Hainan, I was recognized by a Xiangyang player.At that time, Yuka and I sat in the first row of the stands, and the boy sat in the third row not far away.After the game, Yuka and I were about to go under the stands, when we turned around and saw a boy tilting his head, looking at us seriously.

I've always been the type to stare back at me when you stare at me, so after about five seconds of eye contact, the other party looked away, scratched his head in embarrassment and walked away.This guy has a pair of slender eyes, looks unremarkable, and is a typical good student in an all-boys school.I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and Yuka didn't notice it at all.

What happened next was a little speechless.

When I followed the Hainan team to watch the game of Sanno Industry, I met Xiangyang who also came to watch the game.We came up from the stairs on the east side of the stand, and they came up from the west side, and they happened to meet in the middle.As soon as I saw Xiangyang's green sportswear, I cleverly hid behind Mu Shenyi. After all, no one knew that Kenji and I were relatives. Such a sudden meeting made me very embarrassed.When the distance was about five or six meters, the captains of the two teams greeted each other plainly. While greeting each other, a little giant came up the stairs behind the Xiangyang team.Hanakata appeared behind Captain Xiangyang with several cans of juice in his arms, and after distributing the juice in his arms to the team members (Kenji rejected grape juice and chose orange juice), he saw me.

It's not that my self-consciousness is inflated, it's really me that he sees.Hanakata waved at me happily, then patted Kenji on the shoulder, motioning him to look over.Kenji took a step to the side, tilted his head, and saw me hiding behind Mu Shenyi.He slightly raised the hand hanging by his side, and swayed his palm left and right, as if it was a greeting to me.While waving his hands a little, he deliberately shifted his eyes to other places. He really deserves to be my blood relative, and he understands me very well.

Fortunately, I hid behind Mu Shenyi, and the actions of these two people were regarded as saying hello to Mu Shenyi.Seeing Kenji waving his hands reluctantly, Amu also raised his hands and waved, invisiblely running back and forth between the double walls of Kanagawa with misunderstanding signals.

After the captains greeted each other, the Xiangyang team took the lead to walk to the top of the stands, and we stayed where we were, filling the first two rows.

To be honest, I have no interest in the competition without Hainan.But sitting next to Mu Shenyi, there was no other topic except asking some questions related to Shanwang Industry.This frustrates me, and I'm a little impatient.Thinking of Kenji not far behind, I couldn't help lamenting why I made the relationship so complicated, and it wasn't because I was acting in a TV series.What's wrong with frankly admitting that you have a good brother?I feel really sorry for Kenji who always asks Kenji to cooperate with my sneaky behavior.

Thinking of this, I looked back at the place where Xiangyang was sitting.Kenji bowed his waist, propped his elbows on his thighs, rested his chin, and watched the game seriously.He has a good habit of not frowning no matter how unhappy or nervous he is, so his brows and forehead are smoother than those of his peers.If his expression were more lively, he would look like a taller elementary school student.

Maybe he noticed my gaze, or maybe it was the telepathy between blood relatives, Kenji suddenly glanced down and met me.He put down his hands, leaned lower, and moved his mouth.

"what happened?"

Made a mouth shape like this.

Just when I wanted to ask him how his injury was, his expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes moved to the side.At the same time, someone moved around, and there was an extremely small sound of sportswear rubbing against his ears.I caught a glimpse of Mu Shenyi's profile from the corner of my eye - he was also looking at Kenji.

Obviously Kenji changed his face because of him.Just like before, the two stared at each other silently for a while, then looked away and continued to watch the game seriously.

Although it was only a few seconds, I strongly felt that I was redundant, like a lover watching a couple's conversation, that is not an atmosphere I can enter at all.

"Do you know Fujima?"

Amu, who returned his attention to the game, asked me.

"Well... Let's just say we know each other."

I was perfunctory, and Amu didn't continue to ask.

There were 5 minutes before the end of the game, the score on the field was already one-sided, Sanno Industry replaced the main force, and a boy who was much more handsome than the rest of the team walked off the field. Takasago said that this boy was in the first grade, called Zebei Eiji, this name is a bit familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.

The trump card of the first grade is really amazing.I glanced at Amu next to me. This guy and Kenji also played as first-year aces last year. Presumably, at this time last year, there must have been a lot of powerful people who studied them the same way we studied Zebei Eiji.

It is said that the mountain king is really strong. The top teams in each county are all advanced to the national competition. It is a monster that they can beat their opponents like this.Fortunately, Hainan and Sanno Industry are in different groups, otherwise it would be embarrassing to go home after a round of tour.

Seeing that the outcome was a foregone conclusion, I was a little thirsty again, so I went to the vending machine in the gymnasium to buy drinks.The vending machine was at the corner of the corridor behind the stands, and there was already a person standing there—it was Kenji.

This is the third time our siblings have met today.

Kenji bought a can of oolong tea, and he saw me too.Putting the oolong tea on top of the vending machine, Kenji took out his wallet, counted the coins and asked me, "What do you want to drink?"

Juice is high in calories and I have to control my weight, so I'll just drink oolong tea!

So the two of us each had a can of iced oolong tea and drank it facing the vending machine.The display window of the vending machine reflected our two faces. If you look closely, Kenji and I really look alike.

"How's the wound on your forehead?"

He parted his forehead hair and lowered his head to show me that the redness and swelling had subsided, and it was almost unnoticeable once the hair was covered.The doctor said that the stitches would be removed in two weeks, and we had already returned to Kanagawa by then.

"Did you call your mother? She is very worried about you." Kenji replied that he had called, and I felt a little unbalanced.In fact, I have been jealous of him ever since I returned to Kanagawa. As long as he is around, my mother will completely forget the existence of Kazuichi and me, and only see this son whom I haven’t seen in ten years. It’s really irritating.This time too, but it was a bruise on his forehead, not a car accident, so my mother kept calling the hotel where I was staying, asking me about his injury.In this case, even if I have a brotherly concern for Kenji, it has long been submerged in the jealousy caused by my mother's eccentricity.

After talking about the injury, we fell into silence.This is a routine for both of us.I waited for him to find an excuse to leave, but Kenji didn't move, staring at the display window of the vending machine, drinking tea one by one.

"...Looking at it this way, we really look alike."

He spoke suddenly.

"Huh? Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"

Surprised, I turned to look at him.Kenji was still staring at the display window, carefully observing our two faces reflected on the glass.

"Our team's Hasegawa is the one with slender eyes. He said we look alike, and asked me if I have a younger sister in Hainan."

Ah, it's a good baby.I remembered.Having said that, as brothers and sisters of the same mother, it seems to be a natural thing to look like.

"Your eyes look like Dad, and your eyebrows here—"

Kenji pointed to my face reflected in the display window.My eyes—it’s a pity that I didn’t inherit my mother’s round and big eyes, but the somewhat slender red phoenix eyes like my father’s.The eyebrows are thick and shaped like swallows with outstretched wings.This is also like his father, his eyebrows are more slender than that of ordinary men, and they have a feminine beauty.

"The face shape is the same, but the nose is more like my father, and you are like my mother."

Both of us have round faces with a sharper chin. Kenji's nose has the same high bridge as his father, with narrow nose wings. I follow my mother's line and have a softer line.Speaking of which, in physiognomy, a nose like mine is a sign of Vanves.

Judging from the overall image, Kenji combines the fortitude of his father and the softness of his mother, while I have the sensitivity of my father and the action of my mother.

Besides--

Kenji and I parted our hair, revealing ears higher than eyebrows:

"The ears are huge."

"By the way, mom said your earlobes are very soft, can you let me touch them?" Kenji tilted his head cooperatively, and brushed his hair behind the ears with his hands.

I pinched his earlobe and rubbed it. It was really soft and delicate to the touch. It was the softest and most comfortable earlobe I have ever seen.And touch my own -- well, it's normal.

Afterwards, we raised our forehead hair, compared the round foreheads, gritted our teeth and observed each other's teeth, stretched out our fingers and compared the shapes of nails, and finally came to the conclusion that we belonged to the blood relatives who looked alike one type.

This conclusion is very new to both me and Kenji.Since his parents divorced, he has been brought up as an only child, and although I have a younger brother, he is not related by blood, so when we intuitively feel that there is a person who is very similar to us and very close in this world When people exist, the bond of blood becomes stronger.

After drinking oolong tea, we returned to our respective teams and met again as we left the stadium.The boy named Hasegawa stared at me and patted the teammates next to him discussing something, I think he was probably trying to guess who I was.As you can see, Hasegawa-kun, Kenji and I are brothers and sisters who are just like fakes.

The distance between Kenji and Kenji shortened, and after experiencing the beauty brought by blood relationship, I was so excited that I even got carried away with complacency.On the way back to the hotel, I asked Soichiro:

"Do you think I look a lot like Xiangyang's Tengzhen?"

Zongichiro stared at me for a while, then tilted his head and recalled, affirming: "It's very similar." Takasago on the side laughed and teased me: "You want to say that you and Fuji are really husband and wife!"

"Go away!"

I turned to ask Amu: "Amu, what do you think? Do I and Fujima look alike?"

"Not like." Amu replied quickly.

chapter38Failure

The National Sports Conference has entered a heated stage, and Hainan, as a traditional power, has entered the semi-finals.

I firmly believe that this year will definitely be able to dominate the country, but Yuka doesn't think so.She did not make a judgment based on the strength of the next few opponents, but——

"There is no surprise in winning all the way."

It's not like writing a novel requires a sense of surprise! !According to this logic, the people of Sanno Industry must die of boredom?

The first opponent that Hainan, after entering the semi-finals, will face is Sanno Industry, which dominates professional households across the country.Our side is not bad. I heard from Amu that this year's Hainan is the strongest in history.So I was very confident, and even imagined the scene where I ran down from the stands and hugged Amu while I was in the chaos after defeating Sanno Industry.

On the day of the semi-finals, I was too excited and overslept. Yuka went directly to the gym after morning exercise and didn't wake me up.This mistake made me very regretful, I hurriedly washed up, and rushed to the stadium without even applying makeup.

79:89

This is how the numbers on the scoreboard are displayed.I habitually regard the big number as the score of Hainan, but the red 89 is not the familiar affiliated Hainan University, but the unfamiliar Sanwang Gonggao.

I once thought I was wrong, stood on the stairs of the stands, rubbed my eyes, and stared again——79:89, affiliated to Hainan University: Sanwang Gonggao

I'm a little out of breath.Immediately afterwards, 89 jumped and became 91, 93—and 79 struggled to reach 83, and then it never changed again.

The final score was 83:113, and Hainan was defeated.

When the final whistle sounded, I subconsciously looked for the figure of A Mu, but just as soon as I caught his back number, I felt a sharp pain in my chest.This is the first time I've seen him lose, he always wins.I know it's wrong to feel this way, but I don't know how to face Amu, what to say to him.

Rush down the stands now?Or do you pretend you overslept and missed the game, pretending you didn't know about it?

Just when I was struggling, someone patted me on the back, it was Yujia.

"Although the result is the same as what you predicted, there is no surprise."

Yuka smiled wryly.The two of us walked down the stands together and waited for the basketball team to come out at the gate of the gymnasium.While waiting for the basketball team, Yuka briefly told me about the process of the game. Eiji Zebei, who was a big showman when watching the game before, beat us, the strongest Hainan team in history, to no avail. Even Ah Even Mu couldn't stop him.The ferocious scoring of 5 points in the last 24 minutes once again consolidated Sanno Industry's undefeated position.

I always feel that the name Zebei Eiji is very familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.However, Sanno Industry belongs to Akita Prefecture, so it should be impossible for me to know him.

Just when I was wondering, Amu and the others came out, followed by the people from Sanno Industries.Seeing Yuka and me, Soichiro left the line and walked over, not paying attention to the people behind, and bumped into Sawakita Eiji.Although Soichiro was taller than Zebei, but his body was much thinner, he was knocked down and sat on the ground. Zebei probably didn't expect his collision to be so powerful, so he pulled Soichiro up with embarrassment.

"Sorry sorry, are you hurt?"

Soichiro waved his hands quickly, his ears turned red when he stood up.It's embarrassing to fall like this in front of girls, I understand.Others stopped when they heard the movement here, and turned to look at us.The first one to respond was Amu, who strode over and patted Soichiro on the shoulder.

"Are you all right, God?"

God shook his head.Ah Mu nodded to Zebei, and brought Ah Shen back to the team.At this moment, I felt a line of sight cast on my face, following this line, Zebei was staring at me intently.

"Is there something wrong?" I looked at his face carefully, and it did feel very familiar, but I couldn't remember where I saw it.

Zebei didn't answer me. He crossed his arms, frowned, thought hard for a while, and pointed at me with his index finger: "Li Yang?"

"Excuse me, are you...?"

"I'm Eiji! Little woo woo Eiji! Do you remember? Wow——you've become a great beauty——" He leaned over and looked me up and down, then stretched out his hand and flicked on my forehead.

This kid hit hard, and with this blow, the memory about him in his brain was instantly unsealed.

"I remember, you are little Wuwu, but you haven't completely remembered me yet, have you?" I motioned him to approach, Zebei bent over obediently, and I picked up my handbag and put it on his head without hesitation A fierce K.

Little Wuwu immediately held his head and began to cry.

Well, that's right, this is Xiao Wuwu, this is me!

Zebei Eiji was my elementary school classmate, because he cried at every turn, so he was called Xiaowuwu.He has been taller than his peers since he was a child, and he often likes to lick girls' foreheads, which is really annoying.I used to take care of the rabbits in the class with him, because he didn't close the cage properly, the rabbits all ran out, I had to catch the rabbits with him, and I was scolded by my mother for coming home late.

At that time, he was only interested in the girl sitting in front of me, but this idiot misplaced the love letter on my desk, and as a result, I was teased for a semester, until the class did not stop.But he was also alienated by the people he liked, so I didn't hold grudges against him.

Zebei cried for a while, seeing that no one paid attention to him, he wiped away his tears, and asked me again: "Li Yang, do you have any connection with Xiao Ai?" Xiao Ai was the girl he had a crush on back then.

"Yes, do you want her phone number?"

Zebei was overjoyed when he heard that, and bowed to me again and again.I wanted to make fun of him, but then I thought about the difference between me and him, so I readily gave him Xiao Ai's number in the address book.

I don't know if he, who stands at the top of the Japanese high school basketball world, can also climb to the top of love?

Come on, Eiji!

On the way back to the hotel, everyone treated me coldly, and I understand this feeling.Just after losing the game, I was depressed, and I saw girls from the same school chatting and laughing with the opponent's ace, and it was natural to be in a bad mood.But I don't want Mu Shenyi to hate me because of this.It would be great if he was willing to discuss girls with me like Zebei. After all, this is my specialty, and there is enough space for me to develop and let him know me better.

But if he really did this, he would not be the Mu Shenyi I like.

It's really annoying.While helping others to pull the red line, I don't know where my own red line is broken.

The national competition in Hainan came to an end. After watching the finals, we took the Shinkansen back to Yokohama.On the way back, I was still sitting with Amu. He looked very tired and rested with his eyes closed. I didn't talk to him, but just looked at him silently.

Not long after, perhaps feeling that someone was looking at him, A Mu opened his eyes, turned his head, and unceremoniously "hahahahaha".

"Laughing... what are you laughing at, you!" I was angry and annoyed, and the people next to me cast curious glances, so I tried to lower my voice and asked him in a low voice, "What's so funny!"

Amu was also trying to suppress his desire to laugh, and after taking two deep breaths, he mysteriously asked me to lean over.

"Fujiwara... your expression just now is very similar to my Pochi, very, special—that, cute—"

Although I don't know what Pochi is, I am very satisfied with his description—huh, such a cute face, you should take a closer look at it.

But why—is this guy still laughing?A Mu first covered his mouth with one hand, his shoulders trembled slightly, and then covered his mouth with the other hand, as if trying to seal something evil, and his shoulders trembled more and more.In the end, laughter leaked from between his fingers.

"Hey, Fujiwara, what did you tell our Amu? Why are you laughing like this?" Takasago who was sitting in the back leaned on the back of the chair and looked at me and Amu.A Mu shook his head while suppressing a smile, his eyes were smiling into two crescent moons.

"...He said I was like Pochi from his family."

"Poch?"

Takasago thought for a while, and his face suddenly puffed up, as if playing a game of holding his breath, followed by a "poof—" accompanied by saliva, and loud laughter filled the entire carriage.Some passengers cast dissatisfied glances.Takasago quickly covered her mouth, and continued to laugh in a low chisel.

What exactly is going on?Someone explain to me.

What happened later was even more unbelievable. After listening to Takasago's explanation, Soichiro, Gong Yi, and captain Kimura all started laughing, looking at me while laughing.

The instigator, Mu Shenyi, had calmed down at this moment, enjoying the scenery that flashed by outside the window very happily.

"Hey, who's Pochi?" I nudged him.He avoided my gaze, his face was almost pressed against the car window, and his shoulders began to shake again.

Don't say it, right?I turned my head and asked Takasago, "Hey, who is Pochi?"

"Boqi is Amu's pet dog." Gao Sa stood up and answered my question, then sat down again.Who are you imitating...

I poked Amu again: "Why do you say I look like Pochi, and everyone laughs like that?" Before Amu could answer, Takasago stood up and sat down again: "Because Pochi is ugly."

I don't believe it: "Is that so? Amu?"

Amu denied it, and told me with a sincere face: "Boqi is very cute——" After saying that, he took out his wallet and showed me that there was a photo of a puppy in the ID bag. "Look, it's cute."

It was a snow-white poodle with a beautiful coat color, sticking out his little tongue to the camera.It's so cute and I'm very satisfied.

But why is everyone laughing?

"It's cute, but I don't know why you laugh at me."

Takasago stood up awkwardly for the third time: "Pochi——is a Baigouzhan."

The corners of my eyes turned to Amu and I covered my eyes as if giving up the treatment.

"Hundred, dog, cut?"

I broke Amu's face and forced him to look at me. "What's the meaning?"

"Uh... When I take him for a walk, if I don't pay attention, he will—cough cough, just—"

"I rode on another dog." Takasago kindly added, patted Amu on the shoulder: "Because of this incident, I apologized to many neighbors, right?"

A Mu closed his eyes and nodded resignedly.

It turns out that I am such a person in your eyes.I slumped on my seat sadly, not wanting to look at him again.

After a while he touched my arm: "Fujiwara?"

"Why?" I shook his hand angrily.

"Angry?"

Then there is no need to ask.

"Sorry, I mean no harm, you really look like Bo—"

"Enough! PASS! PASS!"

I glared at him angrily: "What kind of person am I in your eyes? I don't understand you more and more!"

Startled by my anger, Amu was stunned for two seconds, and quickly replied: "Fujiwara, you are a strange person."

"Aha?"

"The appearance is very cute, but I will suddenly pick up the handbag and hit someone. I was really shocked."

"...Do you think I'm doing something wrong?"

Amu shook his head, and replied sincerely: "I think Zebei is in pain." After that, he raised his head to ask Gao Sha who was eavesdropping on our conversation: "Really?" Gao Sha poked his head out from behind the chair and nodded violently: " It hurts!"

"And you gave Zebei your phone number—" He touched his chin, frowned, and looked puzzled: "Before you beat him so hard, I really don't understand what girls are thinking. .”

"You just don't understand what I'm thinking!" I hummed twice. "And, that's not my phone number, it's the number of someone he once liked!"

Amu let out a thoughtful "Oh".

"Don't look at me like this. I'm very enthusiastic about love affairs. Didn't someone ask you to bring me a letter asking me to help her solve her love problems? In short, it's right to come to me for this kind of thing."

"That's right, Fujiwara, you are indeed very popular among girls!" Takasago and Amu looked at each other and nodded in unison.

"It's not just girls. If you have any questions about love, you can also come to consult me. Don't be shy, I will keep a secret for you." After I finished speaking, I approached Amu and deliberately lowered my voice to create a shameful atmosphere and asked him :"Have it?"

The distance is so close that I can smell the washing powder on his body. I temporarily allow my rationality to leave my body and revel in this faint fragrance.

"No—" Amu paused, his eyes fell on the handle of the seat, and he replied softly, "Not yet."

The two of us pretended nothing had happened, I lowered my head and fiddled with the bracelet, and out of the corner of my eye, I caught him looking out the window with his chin resting - but in the shadow reflected by the glass, Amu's eyes were indeed looking at me.

We didn't talk again until the train arrived at the station.When Amu helped me pick up my luggage when I got off the bus, I asked him, "Can I meet Boqi next time?"

"...Yes." Realizing that I didn't tease him, Amu enthusiastically recommended his Boqi to me.

"I'm a little worried that he doesn't like me now." I deliberately set a trap, and Amu replied without thinking: "Fujiwara, you are so cute, Pochi will definitely like you very much—"

"Oh~ so you mean Pochi likes pretty girls?"

"That's right, that's right—"

"So it's Baigou Zhan—no, it should be Baigouqi." I showed a cruel smile that I had hidden for a long time, and Amu couldn't bear to look directly at him, covered his eyes and turned his head away.

I smiled and dragged my luggage while walking and reminded him: "You promised me to take me surfing, but don't forget! Remember to bring Pochi with you~"

My summer after the national competition has finally begun.

chapter39Surfing

Not long ago on the Shinkansen to Hiroshima, Mu Shenyi promised me to surf with me, and now it's time for him to fulfill his promise.
