To Avoid Su Without Delay
Chapter 66
Jinjiang Literature City's premiere
Wen Tai, who witnessed all this, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The bubble on his mouth burst because of this.
Liu Sheng, who was following closely behind, pushed his glasses up.
He complained calmly.
"You brought this upon yourself."
Keigo narrowed his eyes when he saw how familiar Tachikaidai was with Katori. He nodded and snorted. "You all know her?"
He knew that Ren Zu knew her a few days ago. When he got in the car, he also saw Sunrise.
Rikichi and the others were surprised by Katori's appearance.
Before Katori, she had been going out every day.
Judging by how late she came back, it wasn't hard to tell that she knew a lot of friends.
However, she knew almost all of Tachikaidai's friends. Wasn't this too much?!
How many people did she like in the past?!
Looking at the surprise and understanding in their eyes, as well as that familiar emotion,
Keigo felt a little suffocated.
Would it be the same when he met the people from Qing Xue?
Keigo thought to himself expressionlessly. He didn't have any thoughts in his heart.
"Yes.
It seems that Keigo -kun doesn't know?
I knew that Katori knew you a long time ago. "Yukimura's eyes curved.
There was no emotion in his purplish-blue eyes.
"After all, you can be considered the 'number one' among us."
"Hey, is this Katori senpai?
She looks quite obedient when she's sleeping. "
The atmosphere between the two big shots in the front of the car was turbulent. On the other hand, Katori in the back seat was the opposite of amiable.
Qieyuan and Katori got along well because of the game. They also appreciated each other because they were both trash in English.
At this moment, they were following Wen Tai to watch the sleeping Katori.
However, they didn't get to see her for long.
When little kelp caught a glimpse of the drooling little fox in Katori's arms, it couldn't help but poke its head.
Xiao Bai was a light sleeper.
However, his mind was not very clear.
After it woke up, it mumbled, "Lord Nanzhi."
As a result, Qieyuan, who was nearby, was so frightened that he immediately shouted, "Monster!"
"Pfft, Chiye, your reaction is too exaggerated."
Although the Nin Of Gojoseon was a little surprised that animals could talk, she was not that afraid because she had trained her mind from wearing reverse clothing.
Moreover, he thought that since it could stay beside Katori, it must be a harmless monster. Therefore, he was still in the mood to touch Xiao Bai's claws.
"Don't make so much noise in the car. There are still people sleeping. You're too relaxed." Sanada punched Qieyuan with a dark face and frowned to see Katori's reaction.
Knowing that it was in the wrong, little kelp scratched its head and muttered a few words, but it didn't say anything. It also looked at the girl who seemed to have been woken up by them.
Therefore, when Katori opened her eyes because of Qieyuan's yelling, she saw a group of people surrounding her without making a sound.
"Wow, what are you doing?!" Katori, who was still a little confused, was shocked and immediately woke up.
She shook off the Nin Of Gojoseon's hand, hugged Xiao Bai, and curled up into a ball. Her face was full of vigilance.
She just wanted to take a nap for a while. How could she sleep so soundly?
And Tachikaidai, what kind of bad taste do you have? You actually gathered around a girl sleeping?!
Katori's mind was constantly flooded with curses. She was roaring so loudly that she wanted to flip the table, but her expression was unusually calm. However, as long as one was familiar with her, they would know that her brain had just crashed and her eyes were dull.
As if suddenly thinking of something, Katori stiffly raised Xiao Bai as a cover, secretly touched the corner of her mouth, and was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, she didn't drool, so it wasn't too embarrassing.
"Nanzhi -sama?"
Xiao Bai's face was blank. It unconsciously shook its tail, and the tip of its tail happened to brush the tip of Katori's nose. She couldn't help but sneeze.
The instant silence in the car seemed to have the echo of Katori's sneeze. Someone couldn't help but let out a "pfft" sound, and as if it was contagious, there was intermittent suppressed laughter in the car.
Katori couldn't help but turn her head and stare at her reflection in the car window. Her face gradually turned red in the unending laughter.
Especially when even Yukimura stopped his subordinates with a smile, Katori, who felt deeply embarrassed, couldn't help but call out Nin Of Gojoseon's name.
"Jaji!"
The fraud master touched his braids and felt very wronged when Katori stared at him. "Pfft, I'm not the only one laughing."
You can't accuse me just because I'm the closest, right?
Katori couldn't say that it was a subconscious action. She could only bury half of her face in Xiao Bai's fur and snort, revealing a pair of eyes that looked at him bitterly.
Katori's appearance wasn't very eye-catching, only her pair of bright and black eyes. But because of her personal habit, she would always look into the other person's eyes when talking.
So when she looked at someone intently, the person being looked at would have the illusion that they were very important.
Nin Of Gojoseon now felt that way. He couldn't help but want to look away, but because of the inexplicable feelings in his heart, he didn't do so. Instead, he looked straight at Katori's eyes.
"Nin Of Gojoseon, your ears are so red," Wen Tai said bluntly, and then blew a bubble into his mouth again.
This idiot … Nin Of Gojoseon wanted to hit someone, but in the end, he just covered his slightly hot face.
"Everyone, go back to your seats."
Yukimura, who saw all of this, said casually, "If you want to talk about the old days, you can wait until we're at the place where we're staying.
"Don't make a fool of yourself."
He seemed to have categorized the incense as one of his own. Atobe looked at him silently. His fingers caressed the mole under his eyes, but he did not say anything.
Katori, who was no longer sleepy, sat up straight and put her legs down from the chair.
Keigo's school uniform was still on her body. She glanced at it, shook it, folded it, and put it aside.
Nin Of Gojoseon was just about to go back to his seat with his partner when he felt the corner of his shirt being hooked by something.
He looked back in confusion and met Katori's eyes again.
The black-haired, black-eyed girl pressed her face against the front seat. She put one hand on Xiao Bai's back to stroke his fur, and the other hand hooked the corner of his shirt. Her tone was casual and a little careless.
"We haven't seen each other for so long. Don't you want to talk?"
It was boring to play with her phone all the time. She didn't want to sleep for the time being, so she could only grab hold of someone to talk to.
Although this guy had laughed at her before, Katori thought angrily.
Nin Of Gojoseon's slightly stunned expression was printed in her dark eyes. The white fox subconsciously held her fingers in his palm and gently rubbed them. When he realized what he had done, he let go of her hand as if nothing had happened.
"Pfft, if you call me Brother Jaji, I'll say yes."
He withdrew his hand with a cheeky smile, picked up Xiao Bai and stuffed it into Katori's arms, and sat in its original position.
"!" Xiao Bai's fur bristled. It stared at the outsider who had taken its seat.
"What a pity, Jaji."
Katori was proud. She stroked Xiao Bai's back to comfort it. She held up a finger and shook it as if it was a matter of fact. "I'm a freshman this year, so I'm your senior. So you should be the one calling me Sister Katori."
The two people in the last row were childishly arguing about siblings. The people sitting in front of them listened to their conversation with a puzzled expression.
Although these conversations were extremely boring, why did he feel like he had lost …?
When Katori woke up again, she was woken up by the light. The window was wide open, and the thin dark blue curtains were blown up by the wind. Katori stared blankly at the white clouds floating in the blue sky and felt a slight chill on her body.
Did the stupid fox run away after sleeping with her?
She finished washing up in a bad mood. When she went downstairs, the sound of her footsteps became louder.
Keigo, who had been sitting at the dining table for a long time, put down the cutlery in his hand. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her. "What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"
"I was stood up."
Katori poked the fried egg on the plate resentfully until the yolk inside slowly flowed out. Then, she picked it up with a fork and stuffed it into her mouth.
She briefly told Keigo about what happened to her last night. She held her chin and speculated, "Keigo, do you think I'm going to step into the Theater of Hundred Ghosts?"
"What I want to know is, why do you always get into trouble with weird things?"
"Keigo, are you scolding yourself too …"
"…"
Keigo choked and changed the topic. "Speaking of which, we have a sleepover with Tachikaidai in two days. Do you want to go?"
"Sleepover …" Katori felt that it had nothing to do with her for a group of teenagers to go sleepover with their blood and sweat. However, she had nothing to do with it, so she agreed.
Moreover, she could meet Tachikaidai's group!
She really wanted to see their surprised expressions when they saw her.
Thinking of this, she felt a little better. For the time being, she put the matter of Xiao Bai abandoning her early in the morning to the back of her mind and happily ate her breakfast.
Before she finished her breakfast, Keigo said goodbye and left for school to train.
Katori didn't mind. After slowly finishing her breakfast, she went to Keigo's yard to look for Pete. He was Keigo's big golden retriever. Although his name made her feel a little out of character, as he always reminded her of a guy who was swinging in the sky, everything else about him was very nice.
However, she didn't expect to catch Pete at his place, who had disappeared early in the morning.
"Xiao Bai isn't a dog!"
"I'm not a bad person. I'm just here to look for Nanzhi -sama!"
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you, Nanzhi -sama. Speaking of which, can you understand me?!"
From afar, she heard Katori, who was acting silly, sigh. "Xiao Bai, what are you doing?"
"Nanzhi -sama!"
The little fox, who was covered in white fur with red patterns, was aggrieved and agitated. It was about to pounce over, but Katori blocked it with an arm's length.
"It's too hot. Don't pounce over."
Xiao Bai: "QAQ."
The little fox's ears drooped and it stayed where it was, aggrieved. When the big golden retriever saw Katori coming over, it changed its fierce attitude from before and wagged its tail to rub against her.
Xiao Bai: "!"
It was clearly the first one!
Whether it was the contract or companionship, how could Nanzhi -sama forget Xiao Bai when she had another dog?!
Katori was speechless under the resentful gaze of the little fox. In the end, she stroked Peter, who felt good to the touch. After it ran back to play in satisfaction, Katori squatted down beside Xiao Bai and stroked its ears that felt good to the touch.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Xiao Bai talked about how they fought together a thousand years ago, how the shikigami separated after she left, the weakening of the contract, the loosening of the shackles, and how it had been looking for her.
Katori didn't feel anything when she heard this. That was her, but also not her. Xiao Bai was talking about Nanzhi in the game, not Katori.
She hadn't experienced the ups and downs of Xiao Bai's memories, so she couldn't empathize with it. However, this didn't stop her from being moved by Xiao Bai's persistence.
"What about the others?" She pinched Xiao Bai's ears and stroked its tail.
Since the contract had been broken, the shikigami shouldn't be so persistent about looking for her, right?
"Some of the other masters stayed in that era, while others lived in seclusion in the modern world."
Xiao Bai shook its ears and moved its tail a little embarrassedly. As if it was afraid that Katori would think too much, it hurriedly explained, "But as long as Nanzhi -sama gives the order!
Those masters will come back to serve Nanzhi -sama! "
"No need, I won't stay here for long. I'll go back sooner or later." Katori didn't want to summon them and make them happy for nothing.
But speaking of which, were the other shikigami as affectionate as Xiao Bai?!
Would they come over to destroy her after discovering her existence?!
After all, from Xiao Bai's words, she knew that she had left first and abandoned them, which led to the separation of the shikigami and the fall of Yinyang Hut.
Although Xiao Bai had its own beauty filter and made it sound like she had her own difficulties, she knew in her heart that to her in the other world, it was just a game that was uninstalled and abandoned.
She couldn't bear Xiao Bai's affectionate feelings.
Besides, if she went back, it would be another abandonment, so it was better to break off contact from the beginning.
"It's just as Fox's Assistance said. Nanzhi -sama is from the other world. Won't you miss this world …" As if struck by Katori's words, Xiao Bai lay on the ground dejectedly, its two little paws clinging tightly to the tender green grass.
Fox's Assistance?
Katori was just about to ask Xiao Bai what Fox's Assistance was about when her phone suddenly rang.
She complained in her heart that this was so melodramatic that it felt like a TV drama where she interrupted someone to ask about an important matter and ended up screwing things over. She picked up the phone.
After picking up the phone, as expected, she forgot what she wanted to ask before.
"Little Ito, Little Ito, I heard that you came to our world!"
Huang Se's tone was cheerful. Even through the screen, Katori seemed to see his waving golden tail.
Oh, that's Peter's tail.
Katori coughed softly and looked away from Peter. She tried to sound as natural as possible and said, "Where did you get the information from …"
"Little Sunspot told me when I was chatting with him!"
Sunspot … Did he leave it to me because he didn't want to talk to Huang Se?
Katori's expression became serious.
Huang Se didn't know what she was thinking and said excitedly, "Little Ito, I'm doing a photo shoot this afternoon. Do you want to come and see?"
"No, it's too hot outside."
Although Katori was a little tempted by Huang Se's live modeling experience, she was too lazy to go out when she thought about how she went to look for Sunspot yesterday and how she basked in the sun for half a day.
"But Little Ito clearly looked at Sunspot yesterday!" Huang Se complained over the phone, "Is Little Ito's love for me so shallow?!
Can't I compare to Little Sunspot?! "
"Yes, it's shallow. I can't compare to him."
"Little Ito!"
Katori wanted to laugh when she heard this over the phone. It made her feel like she was raising a large Golden Retriever.
She comforted Huang Se with a few words and finally agreed to his request to see him.
"Nanzhi -sama doesn't want to go out, right?"
Xiao Bai, who had heard every word of the conversation, tilted his head in confusion and stared at her with his dark eyes without blinking.
"No, I'm just teasing him." Katori put away her phone and walked out. "After all, it's not easy to come to this world. It's a waste to stay in the room all the time."
And if her hunch was right, she probably knew the reason for this transmigration, so she had to enjoy it.
This time, Katori learned her lesson. She didn't ride her bicycle foolishly. Instead, she took Keigo's car. She didn't know the brand of the car, so she followed the address Huang Se gave her.
Xiao Bai, who had insisted on following her, was left downstairs because it was mistaken for a dog. Katori squatted down and touched the little fox's ear, coaxing it with a sad expression, "Be good, I might not be back soon. If you don't want to wait, go somewhere else."
Xiao Bai, who had been told not to speak in front of outsiders, sniffled and whimpered. It found a shady spot outside the door and lay down, looking at her with a pair of watery eyes.
What a headache …
Katori rubbed her forehead and didn't say anything. She turned around and went into the building.
When she looked back, Xiao Bai was already gone.
She probably went back.
Katori still felt a little sorry. She wanted to buy something to coax Xiao Bai later.
Speaking of which, what did foxes like to eat?
Or what did little monsters like to eat?
Everything was going smoothly until she walked out of the elevator, until she was stopped by the staff.
All Katori did was calmly call Huang Se and ask him to bring her in.
"Little Ito, Little Ito!"
After they met, Huang Se's doggy aura was even stronger. He struck a handsome pose in front of Katori and looked at her expectantly. "What do you think? Are you impressed by my handsomeness?"
To be fair, Huang Se's appearance was indeed very outstanding. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become a model.
Katori praised him sincerely based on her first impression of him. "Very handsome."
Huang Se seemed to have received a great compliment. The smile on his face became even brighter. "Then will Little Ito feel anything?"
What was wrong with these two? Why did they always make her feel something …
Katori thought to herself, but she replied with a smile on her face, "If Ryota can keep quiet."
"More than ten points!"
Kantori originally wanted to pat Huang Ase's head in consolation when she saw that he seemed to have received a huge blow. But, when she saw that he had probably just gotten his hairstyle fixed, she recalled that she would have to stand on her tiptoes to reach his height.
She silently changed her direction and patted Huang Se's shoulder.
"Don't worry, there are still many girls who like you."
"That's even more heartbreaking!"
Kantori ignored Huang Ase as she cried to the side. He had a calm expression on his face as if this was a common occurrence. 'In any case, if I don't care, she'll be fine after a while,' Kantori thought deeply.
Originally, she only wanted to watch from the side and wait for Huang Se to finish filming so that she could accompany him out for a meal.
However, she didn't know what went wrong during filming. The place where Huang Se was standing slowly became noisy, and she could vaguely hear Huang Se saying something seriously.
Just as Katori was considering whether to get closer to listen to the gossip or stay away from them, Huang Se's voice passed through the crowd and vaguely reached her ears.
"If it's Little Ito, I can definitely make it feel like they're in love!"
Katori: "Huh?"
Did she accidentally overhear something that wasn't right?
[Is that why you called me along?]
Qi Mu, who had teleported to Kyoto with Katori, had a very cold expression on his face. Earlier, when he saw Katori's message, he was excited for a moment. However, when his body moved faster than his brain and sent the message that he was free, he regretted it.
[Isn't this like I'm looking forward to meeting her?
No, I definitely don't have that kind of thought. I just replied like this because she asked. It's basic etiquette to reply as soon as you see a message. Don't worry about it.]
Qi Mu, who was trying to convince himself, looked at the number jumping twice and couldn't help but frown.
[What's wrong with this guy? It's been two minutes and he still hasn't replied. What the hell is he doing?]
"Ah, why does Xiao Nan keep staring at his phone? Is he waiting for a girl's message?"
Kurumi noticed Qi Mu's reaction and couldn't help but tease him.
[…]
Kurumi, who originally thought that Qi Mu would immediately refute her, waited for two seconds and couldn't help but look shocked. "Liar, is it true? Is Xiao Nan also this age?"
Guo Chun was also shocked. "What?
Nan Xiong is dating a girl? "
[Although I don't know what you're thinking, it's definitely not what you think.]
Guo Chun ignored his words and held Kurumi's hand affectionately. "Mom, Nan Xiong is also this age."
Kurumi also held his hand very cooperatively. "Yes, dad. He was clearly so young before, but now he's old enough to date a girl."
"Nan Xiong will be able to get married in a few years. It's a little sad when I think about it, but I still love you the most."
"Me too, I love you the most."
"Mom."
"Dad."
[Ahh, I really can't stand this stupid couple.]
Qi Mu's heart didn't waver at all when he heard the two of them looking at each other affectionately. He was about to throw away the empty coffee and jelly box and go upstairs when he heard a "ding" sound.
A text message came in.
[That's great!
Qi Shen, can you please take me to Jindo City now?
[Pitiful] [Pitiful]
[Go to Jindo City?
Now?]
Qi Mu frowned. Emotionally, he wanted to say yes, but his rationality made him decide to ask about the situation first. However, before he could finish typing the text message, Katori sent another text message.
[I'll tell you the reason when we meet!
'Please!'
This is something only you can do!]
So, after Qi Mu sent the message faster than his brain, he stared at the "Sent Successfully" page and fell into deep thought.
[Strange, my heartbeat seemed a little abnormal just now.]
[It must be an illusion.]
Qi Mu clicked on the photo sent by Katori and put away his phone. Then, he glanced at the two who were still lovey-dovey with each other and disappeared.
[I'm not coming back for dinner today, so you don't have to prepare my share.]
"Qi Shen, you're here."
Katori's eyes lit up when she saw Qi Mu. Then, during the three-minute cooldown period of her teleportation ability, she told him about the shrine.
"That's it. Xiao Bai said that a shikigami is trapped there, so I need to go there."
Katori quickly explained and then looked at him with sparkling eyes. "Help me, Qi Shen."
[It's just that I don't need to go there, right?
You can go there after you're done sleeping together.]
Qi Mu glanced at Katori, whose expression was a little unnatural. [Are you hiding something from me?]
Katori did not speak. Telepathy automatically transmitted her thoughts to Qi Mu's heart. After understanding what had happened, no matter how Qi Mu initially felt when he went to see Katori, at this moment, all his feelings turned into an impulse.
The impulse to turn around and leave disappeared in an instant.
[Causing a scene of carnage and then running away? Is this the plot of a dating game?]
Qi Mu complained expressionlessly.
"No, I'm just guessing."
Katori scratched her face a little awkwardly. "Their attitude is just a little strange. No matter what, it's a little too presumptuous to think that everyone likes you."
[In that case, do you want me to confirm it?]
"No, no, no, there's no need."
Thinking of Qi Mu's ability to confirm favorability, Katori hurriedly stopped him. "Although I still don't think a full favorability means that they like me, it still feels weird to confirm it."
In this case, if she really confirmed it, she might not be able to treat them normally.
[Tsk, are you lying to yourself?]
Katori choked and touched her nose embarrassedly. "Kind of..."
Qi Mu looked at her quietly for a while. [Forget it, three minutes have passed. Let's go.]
Qi Mu reached out and put his hand on Katori's shoulder. With just a thought, the two appeared in a remote alley in Kyoto.
"Wow, it's really amazing."
Katori looked at the unfamiliar surroundings and exclaimed. Then, as if she remembered something, she showed an embarrassed expression. "But Qi Shen, I forgot to tell you that I have a postcard of the shrine. We can teleport there directly."
[...]
[Ten coffee puddings.]
"Um, Qi Shen..." Katori, who knew what Qi Mu meant, was even more embarrassed. Her eyes drifted and she did not look at him. Her voice became softer and softer. "I don't have money..."
[...]
"There's nothing I can do. I've been penniless since I came to this world." Knowing that she was in the wrong, Xiangqu shook Qi Mu's arm and tried to act coquettishly. "Please help me, please ~"
Katori's voice was very pleasant, especially when she deliberately softened her tone and acted cute. It was like some kind of sweet candied fruit that could melt one's heart and make one's heart melt. One could not help but want to agree to her request. However, she had never done that to a boy.
Because it was too embarrassing...
Katori felt the heat on her cheeks. She wanted to cover her face and scream.
Qi Mu did not reject her, but his body was obviously stiff. [... If you feel ashamed, don't do it.]
His tone was very steady, and his voice was very calm. It did not match the redness on her cheeks at all.
If Katori could endure the shame and look up at Qi Mu at this time, she would find that the other party's reaction was the same as hers.
Both of them were blushing.
"So you agree?" Katori asked in a small voice.
She was sure that Qi Mu would agree. Now, she just wanted to confirm it.
Qi Mu did not answer the question. [That's not how you use your superpower.]
"You're only saying that because I helped you?"
Katori knew that he was admitting it. She smiled, patted her face, and looked up. However, she saw Qi Mu looking at her with the back of his head.
"Qi Shen?" Katori was a little confused and wanted to look at his face. However, Qi Mu looked away again.
Katori noticed that his ears were slightly red. Her expression was a little strange.
"Qi Shen, are you..."
[No.]
She hadn't said anything yet.
Katori pouted, but she was secretly happy.
After Qi Mu calmed down, he calmly sent a message to Katori in her mind. [Don't use this self-destructive trick again.]
Katori's focus was not on this at all. She asked excitedly, "Self-destructive... Qi Shen, did you get hurt a thousand times?"
[… What nonsense are you talking about?]
Qi Mu was silent for a moment before he decisively changed the topic.
[You don't want to go back for the time being, right?
What do you plan to do after you go to the shrine?]
He had no idea that he had dug a hole and was about to jump into it.
Katori did not say anything. She just looked at him with anticipation.
Qi Mu immediately understood what she meant. [What are you thinking?
Give up. I won't let you live in my house.]
[No matter how you look at it, it's a very troublesome thing.]
Qi Mu thought about the possible reaction of his stupid parents and his eyes froze for a second.
"Qi Shen, that's too much. Someone used to live in my house and ate a lot of my coffee and jelly." Katori said bitterly. Her tone was full of complaints.
[Whose fault is that?]
Even though he knew that Katori was doing this on purpose, Qi Mu still had a helpless and complicated feeling in his heart.
He was silent for a moment before he sighed slightly.
[Let's see how it goes first.]
[If there's really no other way, I'll agree.]
It's really not easy...
Because she was too emotional, Katori couldn't help but choke with tears in her eyes.
One had to know that she was about to die from exhaustion!
Why was Seirin so hard to find!
She knew that she had a bad sense of direction, but this was too bad!
"Ito, over here." The boy with a weak sense of presence shouted so that he wouldn't be ridden by Katori who was looking around.
"Tetsuya!"
When Katori saw Sunspot who was waiting to pick her up, she was so excited that she couldn't help but pounce on him. However, before she could reach Sunspot, her legs gave way and she fell to the ground.
Sunspot, who was hesitating whether to avoid or stop her, sighed and helped her up. "What's wrong? You don't have to be so excited to see me."
"My legs are just weak!" Katori buried her head in Sunspot's arms and refused to get up.
"Even if you say that, I won't pick you up. I can't carry you."
"… Tetsuya, you're lucky that you met me. If it were any other girl, you would have been beaten to death."
"I'm just telling the truth."
Katori temporarily ignored this problem. With tears in her eyes, she pulled Sunspot's sleeve and complained, "Tetsuya, I'm telling you!
I got lost for a long time before I found this place! "
"I knew it from the time." Sunspot, who had been waiting at the door for an hour, sighed and said nothing.
He patted Katori's head comfortingly. "You did a great job."
"Don't treat me like No. 2 …" Katori complained as she stood up. Sunspot helped her up from the fallen bicycle. "Let's go. I'll buy you a milkshake from M Records."
Katori nodded before she realized that something was wrong. "Wait, you asked me to come to Seirin, and then you plan to go to M Records?"
"Because I think Cheng Lin would be easier to find." Blackie stared at her with a pair of big and round eyes. His expression was as innocent as it could be. "Who knew that you wouldn't be able to find him even with the GPS turned on."
"…" Katori choked. She wanted to refute but couldn't find the words to do so. She could only walk silently by the side.
Katori didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt that Sunspot's verbal attacks were getting more and more powerful.
And they were all attacks that no one could find a reason to refute.
As Sunspot's good friend, this made her a little worried.
Hei Zi helped her push the bicycle, and the two of them chatted casually, exchanging information at the same time.
Katori was right at the beginning. The flow of time on both sides was not the same.
It had been a year since Katori's incident, but only two months had passed on Sunspot's side.
"Wow, so Tetsuya can call me senior, right?" Katori smiled sweetly. "I'm a freshman now!"
"But Katori doesn't look any different from before."
Huh?
Katori's footsteps paused for a moment. She stared blankly at Blackie's back until he turned his head around.
"What's wrong?" The boy with sky-blue hair showed a puzzled expression.
"No, nothing."
Katori quickly came back to her senses and scolded herself in her heart. Tetsuya just called her name. She didn't need to care, even though she didn't seem to have heard him call other people by their names.
Speaking of which, why did he suddenly call her by her name … Wait, he didn't do it because he didn't want to call her senior, right?
She was just joking.
Katori, who had a lot of thoughts in her mind, suddenly calmed down. She didn't even come back to her senses when she reached M Records. She walked for a long time before Sunspot called her back.
"I feel that Ito is a little absent-minded." Sunspot, who was helping to open the door of M Records, looked at her sideways.
"It's Tetsuya's fault for suddenly calling my name." Katori pouted.
"I just wanted to change the topic." Sunspot led Katori to the back of the line. "It's too difficult to call her senior."
So that's how it is. Damn it.
"Ito, do you want to eat anything other than milkshakes?" Sunspot asked when there was only one person left in front.
