Today was a good day for school. If there were any expectations before school started, it would be to see beautiful girls besides the sound of books.
A handsome boy and a beautiful girl.
"Good morning, Sōsuke." His classmates greeted him.
"Morning."
"Look, it's Higashikaga Sōsuke! Yaya! "Girls in groups of three or five giggled.
The hazy feelings of youth and a relaxed yet fulfilling school life shaped most people's high school lives. In such an environment, there was plenty of gossip and pure relationships that hadn't been tainted by society.
Autumn was coming.
"Good morning, class president. How are you today?"
"Thank you for your concern. I'm very healthy."
A boy in his class leaned on his desk and stopped in front of Kawasumi's desk to talk to Kawasumi.
"No need to be so polite ~ We're all classmates."
Beauties were always rare and scattered. With one less beauty, the school's atmosphere became much dimmer. One of the missing beauties was Tomoko Kawasumi. She returned to school after a few days of sick leave, and her snow-white skin earned her a new nickname, the Sickly Beauty.
She was weak yet tenacious. She had a melancholic and distant aura. She was the embodiment of the Blue Hyacinth.
His classmates bragged about her as they stared at Kawasumi's face with sparkling eyes.
"… There's been a lack of homework recently, so it can't be helped that everyone's so free."
Kawasumi opened her book without hesitation. Her smooth movements were flawless. She was neither shy nor angry. She was so good-tempered that it was impossible to know her personal preferences.
However, this didn't discourage him. He glanced at Higashikaga Sōsuke, who had just entered class.
"Yo! Sōsuke. "
"Good morning." Higashikaga Sōsuke entered class and walked to her seat.
"Today, class president! Seriously, you have to come!! You don't have anything to do, and if you're healthy, come help out at the club … "The boy was incredibly dispirited.
The student council had been quite busy these days, whether it was preparing for the fall sports competition, the exams, or the school leaders.
"I didn't join the student council."
"Don't be so heartless ~ I'll treat you to dessert."
One of the student council members started acting cute. His soft and drawling voice made Higashikaga Sōsuke's eyelids twitch.
Why didn't he notice that there was such a talkative boy beside Tomoko Kawasumi?
"From today onwards, Shinja -san.."
Then he heard Kawasumi.
"Eh?? What's the matter? Do you want to go to a cram school? Flower arrangement? "
"I'm going to spend all my time chasing after Zhang Shu-san."
Silence. of silence.
This was an explosion on the level of a nuclear bomb. The crescent moon was blown into a flower.
Dongfang whistled as he looked out the window.
He couldn't admit defeat. Yesterday's kiss only left him blushing like a girl. No matter what, he had to hold his ground today! He wouldn't be frightened and wouldn't care about it at all.
"So, so, is it true?" Shinja stuttered.
"What is it?"
"The school is spreading the news about you and Higashikaga Sōsuke."
"We haven't started dating yet, but I'll work hard." Kawasumi said modestly.
Shinja's expression became even more strange. He looked at Higashikaga Sōsuke, who was craning his neck to look out the window, and then looked at Kawasumi, who was about to start studying.
Shinja and Sōsuke weren't very close, so they didn't talk much. Higashikaga Sōsuke was also a delinquent, so he felt like he might get beaten up for asking these questions. Although Kawasumi's class president seemed easy to talk to, Shinja had already figured out that she wasn't easily swayed by force or persuasion. Apart from a piece of shocking news, he didn't know anything else.
What should he do? He was curious. Should he ask Higashikaga Sōsuke after class? At this time, the teacher entered the classroom, so Shinja returned to his seat in the front row.
When class finally ended, he wanted to ask, but he saw an even more dangerous delinquent standing outside the door. The delinquent was loudly calling out Higashikaga Sōsuke's name.
The two of them walked out with their arms around each other's shoulders.
So scary!! Shinja clutched his chest. If it was this delinquent, he would definitely get beaten up … There was no way he could ask.
"Although the student council has a lot of things to do, as a student, you should pay attention to your studies. Shinja -san, have you been studying hard recently? "
Kawasumi didn't go out with Higashikaga Sōsuke!
Shinja hurriedly nodded. "Yes, I have …"
"Earlier, the teacher asked me about the exam questions." Kawasumi looked down at Sōsuke and Etec talking about something before walking away. "I think the questions are too simple. The teacher said that there are such questions. Lately, he's been working overtime to find new questions. "
"… Okay, I'll study."
That meant that it would be difficult. Shinja slumped back into his seat, adjusted his glasses, and opened his book.
"I'm not sure what the new questions are like … Does Class President Kawasumi know?"
"I don't know. If I did, this exam would be meaningless."
"That's true. It's meaningless to know the answers in advance." Shinja took out his exam paper. He no longer had the mood to gossip.
A hand patted him on the shoulder, and then it left. Kawasumi smiled as he stood up. "Good luck, Shinja -san."
After school, Kawasumi packed his bag and walked towards the school gate. He bumped into Higashikaga Sōsuke, who had skipped the second period of the afternoon. A tall man in a white trench coat stood next to her.
Kawasumi didn't know who he was, but he exuded an extremely calm aura. Kawasumi was certain that he was a man with a lot of stories and experiences.
She looked over and saw a pair of green eyes similar to Higashikaga Sōsuke's. That pair of eyes happened to be looking at her.
The man pulled down the brim of his hat and left.
"See you next time, Kōjō -san!" Higashikaga Sōsuke hadn't seen Kawasumi yet. After he saw Kōjō leave, he quickly noticed Kawasumi.
"Do you want to go back together?" Kawasumi asked.
"I have to go get my bag."
"Then I'll wait for you here."
Higashikaga Sōsuke didn't know what to say. He ran towards the classroom and returned in two or three minutes.
On the way home, the two of them didn't know what to say. Kawasumi seemed to enjoy the silence and didn't say anything. Higashikaga Sōsuke, on the other hand, was always at a loss for words whenever he saw Kawasumi.
They kept walking like this until they turned a corner. They were getting closer and closer to Sōsuke's house.
"Your house and my house … aren't together, right?" Higashikaga Sōsuke thought back to the last time he visited Kawasumi's house. Since they had turned the corner, Kawasumi should have taken a different route.
"I'll take you home." Kawasumi smiled innocently.
It was the most awkward time between them again. He couldn't help but be led away by Kawasumi. He always felt like he was a girl, and Kawasumi was more like a qualified boyfriend or something. No, that wasn't their relationship yet.
"You're wrong. I'm not a girl. Forget it, I'll take you home. "Higashikaga Sōsuke felt a little wronged.
They turned back to the intersection and headed back to Kawasumi's house.
"Are Sōsuke and Kumamura's classmate investigating something?" Kawasumi asked.
"You said you wouldn't care …" Higashikaga Sōsuke said in a low, muffled voice. He couldn't tell Kawasumi to not care, nor could he tell Kawasumi not to care. He didn't even call Kawasumi 'classmate' anymore. Instead, he started calling him Sōsuke.
His voice was a little nasal, and his words sounded a little soft. It was a very cute voice. Kawasumi felt like he had heard it somewhere before, but it didn't sound like this at all.
"So Sōsuke is silently agreeing to marry you?" Kawasumi covered his mouth with both hands and widened his eyes.
"That's enough …" Higashikaga Sōsuke's eyes were like a dead fish.
"Sōsuke, it's not a problem to find me if you have any problems. Like I said, I'm lucky to be able to find everything. I'm not talking about abstract luck. I'm talking about my substitute. "
Kawasumi put down her hands. Tachibana understood Kawasumi's thoughts and appeared behind Kawasumi.
He stood next to Kawasumi in his adult form and looked at Higashikaga Sōsuke.
"My substitute, Sixth Sense. He can predict everything. You can also call him Xinjue. His nickname is Tachibana. "
"Your substitute …" Higashikaga Sōsuke looked at Tachibana, who looked no different from a human, in surprise. He was Kawasumi's substitute.
"She's obviously a girl, so why is her substitute a boy?" Unexpectedly, the first sentence was a retort.
"That's the first sentence?" Kawasumi was also slightly surprised. She thought it would be a more serious topic, and her eyes widened.
Yes, this expression. Higashikaga Sōsuke was delighted by Kawasumi's surprised expression, and he also smiled.
"I'm not an idiot. How can someone be so lucky every time? I'm just not sure if there's a substitute or not. I won't be surprised whether there's a substitute or not! "he said proudly.
"That's true. Sōsuke can be very smart sometimes." Kawasumi agreed.
"So, let me …"
"No." Sōsuke didn't hesitate, just like last time.
Kawasumi's cheeks puffed up. She was different from when she was in front of others. She was as angry and lively as a hamster.
"Kawasumi, those things are really dangerous. If you get hurt, I won't be able to explain it to your parents." Sōsuke calmed down.
"I'm angry, Sōsuke." Kawasumi's personality changed completely in front of him, but her tone remained the same. She was still expressing her dissatisfaction in a gentle voice like the spring breeze in April.
"Ah, that's scary!" Higashikaga Sōsuke tried to give her a way out.
"Lower your head, Sōsuke." Kawasumi said gently.
"Whoa, what are you doing?" Sōsuke was on guard.
If Higashikaga Sōsuke didn't lower his head, Kawasumi wouldn't be able to do anything to his face even if she stood on her tiptoes. Both of them knew this very well.
"That's too much." Kawasumi's voice trembled.
Before Higashikaga Sōsuke could try to comfort her, she returned to her easy-going self.
"Sōsuke, what do you like to eat? Do you like meat? Vegetables? Fruit or something else? "
"… Meat." Sōsuke looked at Kawasumi suspiciously, afraid that she would do something to him if he wasn't prepared.
"Then I'll put more meat in your lunchbox. Sōsuke, do you want to eat it tomorrow? Lunchbox. "
"Why are you doing this?" Higashikaga Sōsuke didn't quite believe her.
"I'm chasing Sōsuke -san."
"That's all …?"
Was it because she wanted to see those dangerous things? Or was it something else?
They hadn't known each other for long, so Sōsuke knew that he cared about Kawasumi. When he realized this, Kawasumi started to chase him for no reason.
There was nothing better than having someone you cared about like you. Higashikaga Sōsuke wasn't sure if it was real or not.
"Yeah." Kawasumi reached out her hand to Higashikaga Sōsuke.
