Time was passing quickly, and Noriko Shimizu had no room for hesitation. What her mother said last night kept echoing in her mind, and Noriko thought there was some truth in what she said.

Noriko Shimizu sat up straight, made up her mind, and said, "Watanabe-san~ I wish you a happy birthday in advance~~"

The beautiful girl took out a gift box from her bag and handed it to Watanabe in front of her: "I prepared three birthday gifts, this is one of them."

"So many? I'm flattered..."

Watanabe originally didn't intend to open the gift in person, but at Noriko's request, he had to do so.

It is a half-frame glasses.

Seeing such a gift, Watanabe was a little amused.

The reason why he wore thick, nerdy black-framed glasses was to make himself look ugly on purpose, lower his charm, and make most women ignore him at first sight.

If he wears this pair of half-frame glasses, he will definitely look like a gentleman, and his charm will increase instead of decrease, and even reach a higher level.

Before, Kiko talked to Watanabe about glasses, and Watanabe only said that glasses had no prescription. As for saying that it would make one look ugly and lower one's charm, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't say that.

Unexpectedly, this sent a wrong signal to Kiko, making her mistakenly believe that the glasses were Watanabe's real body or were used as decorations. So she chose a fashionable and good-looking glasses frame for Watanabe.

Watanabe accepted Noriko's kindness and planned to find an opportunity to explain the reason to her later.

At the same time, in order to please the girl in front of him, Toru Watanabe put on the half-frame glasses she gave him.

The effect is remarkable.

In the small and confined cable car, they were facing each other and very close to each other. Whenever Watanabe smiled at her, Noriko's eyes would dart around, and she would only dare to glance at him.

It was so much fun, this had never happened before, and this was also a side of Shimizu Noriko that Toru Watanabe had never seen before.

"These are the second birthday presents..." Noriko held out a stack of envelopes.

"Love letter?" Watanabe reached out to take it, but failed because Noriko hadn't let go.

"Shimizu-san?"

After shouting, Jizi finally realized and let go of his hand.

Watanabe held a few love letters, which were thicker than the ones he had given before: "Can I open them now?"

"...Yeah." Jiko turned her head to look at the scenery outside. The cable car had only turned a quarter of a circle.

She didn't even dare to glance at Watanabe. She closed her eyes and waited for the trial. The only sounds in the cable car were the machinery running, the wind outside, and the sound of turning pages of love letters.

Shimizu Noriko's mind was blank, tears were dripping unconsciously, and she didn't even notice it: "Do you think I have delusions? I have a brain disease for having such wild imaginations?"

“…No, I don’t think so.”

The second edition of the love letter is richer in content than the first edition, with more of the girl's young love thoughts. The words are filled with Shimizu Noriko's unspoken love, confusion and fear for Watanabe Tetsuya.

Watanabe doesn't think that Noriko is suffering from delusions. He himself can travel through time and his body is nothing like that of a normal human being. Therefore, he is more or less in awe of super powers and the existence of aliens.

Everything became clear now. Why was it that even though they obviously liked each other, the girl in front of him was always unwilling to have some tentative intimate contact?

If you put yourself in Kiko's shoes, you will realize that Watanabe would fall into the same fear and entanglement, just like the past that he had hidden from himself.

Watanabe also struggled with whether to confess to Noriko, and was even more afraid of the consequences of confessing...

He didn't want to mention those four years in Kyoto anymore and wanted to erase them from his life. Using this as an excuse, he allowed himself to conceal the past with peace of mind.

It's really bad...

Therefore, no matter what, whether he could meet Noriko or not, Watanabe decided to follow his heart.

To be together with Noriko Shimizu is Tetsuya Watanabe's biggest wish at the moment.

Watanabe, who was clear-minded, looked up and saw a beautiful girl crying with tears streaming down her face towards him. She cried silently, and her tears rolled down her clothes, wetting them all.

"Jizi...you, don't cry yet."

"Eh? Did I cry? Sorry, sorry... Tetsuya-kun..." The girl took out a few tissues and wiped her eyes.

She sat up straight, ready to try physical contact with Watanabe and then break the unrealistic fantasy deep in her heart.

"Hey, Tetsuya-kun..." Noriko Shimizu pulled down the zipper of her sun-protection jacket, revealing her beige vest. Her slender waist and abdomen, and her small and slender belly button attracted Tetsuya Watanabe's attention.

Noriko closed her eyes and trembled: "Tetsuya-kun, please reach out and touch me..."

“There’s no need to go to this extent.”

Kiko opened her eyes with a "huh" sound and saw Watanabe left his seat and half-crouched in front of her. He raised his left hand:

“I believe everything that Keiko wrote in her love letter.

"I can understand Kiko's love for me, and Kiko should also understand my love for her as well as I do.

“Maybe no matter how I say it, it will sound like I’m just talking nonsense, but I still have to say it.

"No matter if I can touch Kiko or not, even if I stay like other men for the rest of my life, I will never be able to touch the real Kiko...

"I, Watanabe, whether it's Watanabe Toru or Watanabe Toru, or any other name or identity, as long as I am still me...

“No matter what, I will never leave Shimizu Noriko.

"So, so...

"And please promise me, Shimizu Noriko, that you will not leave me no matter what.

“This is our lifelong commitment.

"I will spend the rest of my life proving this until this conjecture, this assumption, this agreement, is completely established."

Watanabe Tetsuya stretched out his left hand in front of Noriko. The girl sensed something and also stretched out her right hand. The two palms, one big and one small, gradually approached each other.

"It's okay. No matter what... we have to be together."

After listening to Watanabe's words, Kiko closed her eyes. She really couldn't accept the cruel fact.

The warm touch came from her fingertips, passed through the gaps between her fingers, and tightly surrounded her with the heat of her palms.

Tears welled up in my eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, what she saw were her hands tightly clasped together and Watanabe Toru's smile, which showed that he had also survived a disaster.

"It seems like I'm the only one destined for Jiko, how great..."

Before Watanabe Tetsuya could finish his words, Shimizu Noriko threw herself on him.

Fortunately, he was quick to act and supported Jiko with both hands and sat back in the chair behind him.

"That's great, that's great! Tetsuya-kun is able to meet me! Now there really is no problem at all, I'm so happy, I'm really so happy, Tetsuya-kun!"

Jiko spoke in a panic, tears streaming down her face.

She knelt on Watanabe's hand, and was lifted up by him. She also held up his face, and under the newly given half-framed glasses, the man's face was extremely handsome.

Noriko Shimizu leaned down actively and entangled with Toru Watanabe. The man's hand slowly placed Noriko on his legs, soothing her legs to get her into a sitting position, then he moved up through her jeans and pinched Noriko's slender and smooth waist.

The cable car turned to the highest point of the Ferris wheel, and the orange-red sunset spread over the entire Tokyo Bay, reflecting the men and women on the cable car immersed in the orange ocean.

The Ferris wheel's cable car continued to turn, like the hands of a clock, taking them to the end and back to the starting point...

Chapter 87 I have a friend

The hands of Vacheron Constantin jump smoothly on the dial, without any obvious pauses, and time passes by bit by bit, as if several years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Rinto Takahashi, who not only easily possessed time but also Vacheron Constantin, was now stirring the half-drunk coffee in the cup with a spoon.

He is very anxious now.

It seemed that his theory of pure love, which was mixed with a lot of personal opinions, was too powerful and silenced two of his colleagues and friends.

"Uh, is it that serious?!"

"It's OK for Kurosawa, but why are you joining in the fun, Watanabe!?"

"Cough! Cough cough!" Tactically coughing a few times, Rinto Takahashi comforted Ryosuke Kurosawa, who was about to burst into tears due to sadness.

After all, Kurosawa Ryosuke is 27 years old and a reliable and mature man. He is no longer the young boy he was last month, so his expression quickly calmed down.

"Hey, Watanabe, Watanabe~!"

Just like he did on the way to the Saotome teacher welcome party, Watanabe Toru was distracted again, but the difference was that this time it was Takahashi who woke him up.

"What are you thinking about? I called you so many times before you noticed."

"…Nothing much, just thinking of some happy things from college."

"Happy things?"

"Stupid, what else could it be? A wife-obsessed person like Watanabe must be thinking about the happy and sweet past he had with his new wife when they were in college and unknown to outsiders!"

"I see. As expected of Takahashi, his analysis is very logical." Kurosawa nodded. He had said enough words of envy. Now he felt that the coffee not only tasted bitter, but also sour.

Watanabe obviously didn't want to bring the topic back to him and Noriko, so he took the initiative to say something else and signaled Takahashi with his eyes.

The latter understood, leaned back in his chair, touched his watch and asked, "Does anyone have any troubles recently? If so, please speak up as soon as possible. Isn't the purpose of us learning to hold a tea party with the women's group today for this?"

As expected, Kurosawa Ryosuke stopped talking, and it was Watanabe Tetsuya's turn to come out and cooperate: "I have something that I can't figure out. The head of the grade wants me to be the instructor of a club. I want to choose to be the teacher in charge of a large club, but I don't know which one to choose."

"Ah? You still need to ask us this? The tea party must talk about family or relationship issues!"

"...I have a harmonious family and a happy marriage." Watanabe Toru paused before continuing:

"Well, I have no problems with those things at all."

Takahashi opened his mouth and let out a long breath. Kurosawa gave him some thoughtful advice: "The big clubs in our school... the wind orchestra, the kendo club, the archery club... and the soccer club. Didn't Mr. Watanabe say before that he joined the soccer club when he was in school? You can choose to join the soccer club."

"Oh my, there will definitely be a lot of trouble if you join the football club, and the same goes for the wind orchestra club. Watanabe just wants to go in and slack off, so he definitely won't give priority to them..." Takahashi Rinto suggested the kendo club or the archery club.

He had just finished suggesting it, but then rejected it: "Forget about the Kyudo Club! The eldest daughter of the Jiugong family is here, and choosing the Kyudo Club might be even more troublesome."

Takahashi's words helped Watanabe extract key information.

The club that Jiugongying joined turned out to be the Kyudo Club?

Knowing that Jiugong Sakura was lawless in Yugaoka, there were many rumors, but Watanabe only learned from Takahashi that the club she joined was the Kyudo Club.

Considering that she had immediately caused trouble for Saotome Hazuki since she came to school, and he himself was summoned by the shogunate...

Toru Watanabe couldn't help but wonder whether asking him to be the club's instructor was also arranged by Sakura Jiunomiya?

If so, although it seems like he is giving himself the opportunity to choose a club, hasn't he secretly been selected to join the Kyudo Club?

It's another life that is arranged...
