My new wife discovered my past

Anyway, he didn't care much about it, but after Ozawa Natsumi told him the private matter on Friday evening, Watanabe Toru became suspicious.

Why do I feel like a white cut black?

Still only getting a nod of approval, without even direct eye contact, Watanabe Toru pulled out a chair and sat down, took out his foreign language textbook, and prepared to silently read twice the English dialogues and English texts that he was going to read aloud in the morning.

"Oh no, let's stop chatting! Teacher Mizunotsuki will be here soon, and Red Cliff is really difficult..."

"Yes... I'm speechless! Why do people from Kyoto need to learn Chinese? We are not those lapdogs in Tokyo."

"It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, it's generally acknowledged that Mizunotsuki's teaching level is poor. We were able to get into Xingyue High School, so our academic ability must be among the best among all the high school students in the island country. It must be Mizunotsuki's fault if we can't recite it~"

"Wow, Xingmei-chan, you're really brave~ Hahaha!"

"Uh... Speaking of which, aren't we Kyoto people the ones who act like dogs..."

"........."

Class A, which was chatting animatedly, suddenly became quiet, and then caused quite a commotion.

Toru Watanabe noticed that all the classmates were looking towards the classroom door. Endo Takashi, Kuno Yuichi, Yamaguchi Yu and others had come to class, followed by two students from other classes.

Their faces were all wrapped in gauze, with only their eyes and noses exposed, like newly unearthed mummies.

Facing the puzzled and surprised gazes of the whole class, Endo Takashi and his group of six walked to their seats in the corner of the classroom while whispering to each other.

They divided into two rows, just like on that rainy day, and knelt down in front of Saotome Hazuki, not too far away, begging for her forgiveness.

No one continued to speak, and the students in Class A were slightly shocked by the fact that Endo Takashi and the others had stepped down from their seats.

During the long silence, Saotome Hazuki did not respond to them, but just flipped through the textbook in her hand from time to time.

The six people at the back of the classroom remained seated, not daring to move.

In the weird atmosphere, all the students in Class A fell silent, and none of them had the interest to chat with the classmates sitting nearby.

They all sat upright in their seats, reading books, but there was no sound of turning pages.

Natsumi Ozawa, who was sitting next to Saotome, felt it the most, and her body was shaking uncontrollably.

Now she was really scared and frightened!

Could it be that she heard what I said to Toru last Friday evening?!

As for Toru Watanabe, who was sitting in front of Saotome Hazuki, he felt mixed emotions and was a little frightened.

Now that things have come to this, is there any need for him to still protect and get close to Saotome Hazuki?

Watanabe Toru was confused and his mind was in a mess.

Class A of the first year seemed to have turned into a strange barrier until the arrival of Teacher Mizunotsuki.

"It's time to study early." Said Saotome Hazuki.

On his way back to his seat, Endo Takashi did not look at Mr. Mizunotsuki on the podium.

After losing face in front of the person he loved, he lost his previous composure.

I was not worthy of her in the first place, and now I am afraid I am not even qualified to lick the soles of her shoes...

◆

What happened in Class A of the first year quickly spread quietly throughout Xingyue High School.

Shingo Yokoyama never came to class after that day and soon dropped out of school.

The reason is unknown, no one has revealed it, and no one has asked why.

But everyone knew it.

Similarly, no one bullied Saotome Hazuki and Ozawa Natsumi anymore, and even the verbal insults behind their backs disappeared.

very nice.

Toru Watanabe is considering whether to distance himself from Saotome and stop providing her with protection.

Because she no longer needs him.

Then Toru Watanabe met Endo Takashi on the overhead corridor.

They met face to face. Endo Takashi showed hesitation, but thinking of the strange order she had given him, he stopped Watanabe Toru and said to him:

"Watanabe-san, you should stay away from...stay away from Saotome-san."

"Hmm? What do you mean Endo-san?"

"Literally. No one dares to do anything to her now. Yokoyama Shingo's fate will be worse than they imagine."

"so what?"

"Watanabe-san, aren't you afraid?" Endo didn't want to say anything more. "I'm just kindly reminding Watanabe-san to stay away from her if possible! That's all I have to say."

Seeing Endo Takashi walking away quickly, Watanabe Toru was speechless.

There is no good end for the Riddler!

As to whether to stay away from Saotome Hazuki, or to stay close to her and protect her as before, Toru Watanabe has made a decision at this moment.

Let's just stay like this for now. Watanabe Toru will treat Saotome Hazuki the same way he treats other female classmates.

After all, they are and will always be just ordinary classmates.

◆

The last night before Golden Week in May.

Toru Watanabe was urging his classmates' soccer club members to go to training, and because he turned around to talk to him, he didn't see the female classmate who just came in.

Fortunately, Toru Watanabe reacted quickly and supported the girl in time, but the textbooks and homework in Saotome Hazuki's arms still fell to the ground.

The cliché story unfolds.

Watanabe Toru complained in his heart, then apologized repeatedly and squatted down to help her pack her textbooks.

"I'm sorry, Saotome-san! Did I scare you?"

Toru Watanabe's smile is warm and sunny. Perhaps because he appears with this smile too often, it makes him look a bit professional.

Saotome Hazuki said nothing, just shook her head slightly.

Watanabe Toru, who was used to seeing her like this, felt mixed emotions. He knew that this was her disguise.

But there was also an unexpected gain. Toru Watanabe saw Saotome Hazuki's appearance behind her bangs for the first time, even if it was only for a brief moment.

For Saotome Hazuki, this was the first time in six years that someone other than herself had seen her true appearance.

"Saotome-san, your eyes and eyebrows are bright and free, which is a temperament that many girls' high school students do not have. Has anyone given you any advice? You should boldly show your beauty and smile gently and generously."

Toru Watanabe has praised many girls.

Today was the first time he saw Saotome Hazuki's appearance behind her bangs, so naturally he would not favor one over the other.

He didn't think there was anything unusual about this; it was just normal social interaction between classmates.

Watanabe Toru said goodbye to Saotome Hazuki: "Have fun during Golden Week~See you later, Saotome-san."

After standing quietly for a long time, Saotome Hazuki walked towards her seat with a smile on her face. Her smile was as bright and free as Watanabe Toru described.

"I've given you many reminders and opportunities!

"It was you who took the initiative! Toru-kun~" Deep in the girl's smile was a madness that Watanabe Toru had never noticed.

Please vote and comment. Today is Monday and I want to make it to the new book list. Thank you all!

Chapter 22 Memoirs of the Kyoto Succubus (8): Who entered the health room?

The Golden Week in May ended quickly. On the 6th, Toru Watanabe returned to Kyoto from Amami-nakacho and went to school in a good mood.

After the short vacation, the weird and depressing atmosphere of Class A of the first year was diluted a lot.

We are all high school students and live in Kyoto. As long as we are not stupid or have a strong background, we all know what to say and what not to say.

"Good morning, Watanabe-san!"

"Good morning."

"..."

"The school really cares about us. They announced the monthly test results after the holiday. Otherwise, I would have spent the long holiday in a private school!"

"Damn it! You should have stayed in the private school and studied till you died! I heard that you went to Kamakura to see the sea with a girl from the next class? Something wonderful and unforgettable must have happened, right? I'm so envious, damn it!"

"Don't talk nonsense... She and I are just childhood sweethearts... Well, I don't like her!"

"Oh, really? Then can you introduce her to me? Anyway, you don't like her, but we are good friends..."

"...Ah? It's really rude to do this! I need to ask her opinion first... She has to agree..."

"Ah~ah! As expected, we are best friends!"

"..."

"..."

"Why does it smell like oranges so early in the morning? Did anyone eat oranges?"

"It's Lingxiang-chan. She brought a lot of oranges. If you want some, ask her for them!"

"It's not my orange, it's Qing from Class C next door..."

Toru Watanabe said hello to his classmates and then sat down at his seat. Just as he was about to prepare his textbooks, he discovered that there was something in the desk that did not belong to him.

It's an envelope.

He took it out, squeezed it, and found it was very thick.

Love letter?

It doesn't feel like a love letter. How could there be such a thick love letter?

And it was placed in the desk, not a private locker. If someone found it in advance and opened it to look at it, wouldn't it be socially disastrous?

So if it’s not a love letter, what is it?

"She said she brought oranges from her hometown, the town called...um, Amemonaka-cho."

The female classmate next to him was still talking. When he heard the familiar name of the town, Toru Watanabe turned his head and glanced at her.
