Substitute Toyokawa Shoko, you can become stronger by breathing

Xiaoxiang has always been very popular in school, so it's normal for him to be discussed, right?

"This isn't the usual kind of discussion!"

Eri's face flushed slightly, and her tone became even more excited:

"I mean... I mean what she looked like during the physical examination!!"

"Physical test?"

"Yup!"

Eri nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling:

"I heard... I heard Toyokawa-san did really well in her physical fitness tests! She was exceptionally good in every single one of them! And... and she looks so handsome while exercising!!"

Eri seemed to have thought of something, her cheeks turning even redder, and her voice becoming a little excited: "Now a lot of people...are secretly running to watch her physical exam! The second graders are going crazy about it!"

"Is this true?!" Chihaya Aine's gossipy spirit was instantly ignited!

Xiaoxiang...hit the physical test really well? And...he's so handsome?!

She couldn't help but picture Xiaoxiang's cool and beautiful face, along with the sweaty sports scene...

Wow! It seems...it will be very attractive indeed!

Aiyin has always been someone who likes to join in the fun, and when she heard the gossip about "Xiaoxiang", her interest instantly soared to the peak!

"Come on! Eri! Let's go and take a look too!" She immediately took Eri's hand and couldn't wait to run to the playground.

"Huh? Now? But class is about to start..." Eri hesitated.

"Oh, just one look! Just one look!"

Aine dragged her without saying anything and ran towards the playground:

"If you're too late, you might not be able to see it!"

The two ran to the edge of the playground panting, and sure enough, they saw a lot of girls "pretending to pass by" gathered near the testing area where the second grade was.

They stood on tiptoe, craned their necks, their eyes focused on the figure with blue hair and twintails in the center of the venue.

Aine also quickly stood on tiptoe, trying to peek through the gaps in the crowd.

Exactly!

The moment she looked over!

In the center of the venue, "Toyokawa Shoko", who had just finished the last endurance run, was wiping her sweat with a towel.

She seemed to glance in their direction casually, and her cold face, which was flushed and covered with sweat due to exercise, suddenly showed a very faint smile, which was enough to make one's heart stop.

Then, she tilted her head slightly and blinked her right eye slightly.

An incredibly precise Wink!

It's like being hit by an electric current!

Chihaya Aine felt as if her heart had skipped a beat at that moment! Then, like a drum, it began to beat wildly and uncontrollably!

Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!

Her cheeks flushed red instantly, and even her breathing became rapid!

My mind was blank, and the only sound in my ears was my own heartbeat that seemed to be about to jump out of my chest!

Xiang, Xiaoxiang...she...did she just...wink at me?!

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

Cute! Foul! So foul!!!

The girl's heart was completely conquered by the sudden, handsome and slightly cunning Wink's attack.

Chapter 94: Capitalists Should Be Hanged from Streetlights! (9K5)

Time passes silently in our busy daily lives.

Final exams and physical tests are now over, and Ave Mujica's next performance is being prepared in full swing.

In addition to all these things, his cohabitation life with Wakaba Mutsu was also deepening little by little and entering a new chapter.

This is not the kind of cohabitation that is full of romance or drama, but it is like two quiet animals living under the same roof, each following their own rhythm, but inadvertently forming a subtle and warm connection.

In the process of getting along, Ruoye Mu gradually developed a new habit.

Whether it was when Kujo Renji returned home after rehearsal or when he came back from handling business outside, as long as it was still early, he could almost always see that little figure at the entrance.

She would come home early and sit quietly at the door. When she heard the door open, she would immediately stand up and then... open her arms, waiting for a hug.

This is Wakaba Mu's unique way of expression.

Is it a silent welcome? A pure attachment? An expectation of a response?

Over time, this "going home for a hug" segment has almost become an established ritual that belongs only to the two of them.

However, today...

When Kujo Renji finished his day's journey and opened the door of his apartment, the scene at the entrance was different from usual.

If Ye Mu was indeed at home and heard the sound of him coming back.

But she didn't sit quietly in the corner as usual, she stood up and opened her arms.

This time, she seemed unusually active.

Without waiting for Kujo Renji to change his shoes, she rushed over from the living room!

The speed was so fast that even Jiujo Liansi was a little puzzled. He subconsciously stretched out his hand and steadily caught the girl who jumped into his arms.

Mu hugged him tightly, a little harder than usual.

Kujo Renji felt her small body trembling slightly as if due to some kind of excitement.

He was a little confused and was about to ask her what was wrong when he saw the girl in his arms raise her head.

Those eyes that were always clear and calm, without any emotion fluctuations, were now flashing with an unusually bright light full of excitement. Her face also had a long-lost, childlike, innocent and lively smile.

Then, in a voice that was completely different from her usual whisper and gentle tone, and with a distinct sense of joy, she spoke clearly:

"Teacher, I miss you so much!"

Hearing this title - "Teacher".

This tone, this look...

—Huh? Feiwu Xiaomo, you're finally released?

However, after the initial surprise, Kujo Renji immediately became alert in his heart.

Every time Mortis appears, it means that Ruoye Mu's original body is in some very "troublesome" situation or experiencing huge emotional fluctuations.

Whether it is physical pain or mental stress, it will cause Mu's consciousness to temporarily "exit" and hand over control of the body to Mortis.

But this time...

Jiujo Liansi frowned slightly.

Recently, he has deliberately reduced the influence of Mori Minami on Mu.

Through some "clever" arrangements, Minami Mori was unable to approach Mu frequently, and the pressure she exerted on Mu was reduced.

In real life, nothing seems to have happened that is enough to make Mu collapse and need to "sleep".

Then why...why was Mortis released again?

Jiujo Liansi frowned slightly.

Suddenly I thought... Is there a possibility...

Is it because of the upcoming “unmasking” performance?

For Wakaba Mutsu, who suffers from visual phobia, standing under the spotlight and facing thousands of spectators is obviously a huge test of her psychological endurance.

Although the girl took the initiative to agree and even remained calm during the discussion, she seemed to have no fear of the upcoming challenge...

But what if the girl is actually "pretending" that there is nothing wrong with her?

She suppressed all her fear and pressure deep in her heart until these emotions accumulated to a critical point, leading to a personality switch?

This speculation made Jiujo Liansi feel a little uneasy.

He knew all too well the potential dangers of suppressing emotions.

Mortis in his arms seemed unaware of the turmoil in his heart.

She still hugged his neck tightly, rubbing her little head against his arms like a spoiled little animal.

"teacher."

Mortis complained, his voice filled with a hint of grievance:

"Xiao Mu rarely lets me out now! She used to give me a little time to breathe, but now she doesn't..."

She seemed to have no idea why Mu would "deprive" her of her "fresh air" time and felt it was very unfair.

Mortis thought silently in his heart, with a little jealousy and unwillingness

——Mu just wanted to spend more time with the teacher, so he took over her “free time”!

snort!

Selfish guy!

"She...fell asleep again for some reason?"

Kujo Renji asked softly, trying to get some information out of Mortis.

Mortis tilted his head, as if trying to understand his question, and then said in a somewhat vague tone:

"Well, Mu said...she was going to 'correct' another locked-up 'personality' in the theater..."

"That's why I was asked to come out temporarily to help her check on her body."

"theater"?

"The locked-up personality"?

"Correction"?

These words full of symbolic meaning made Kujo Renji frown again.

He knew that the "theater" Mortis mentioned was most likely referring to the "consciousness space" they shared.

And Mu's "sleep" this time was actually to "correct" that "personality"?

Just as Kujo Renji was trying to understand the meaning of Mortis' words, the girl in his arms suddenly felt a subtle stiffness in her body.

The hand around his neck suddenly loosened its grip.

The pair of eyes that originally sparkled with excitement belonged to Mortis, but instantly became calm like the water of a lake.

The freshness and agility that belonged to Mortis receded in an instant like the tide, and was replaced by the clear and calm eyes of Wakaba Mu that Jiujo Renji was familiar with, like the calm water of a lake.

It is obvious that Ruo Ye Mu is back again.

Kujo Renji silently mourned for two seconds in his heart for Mortis who had just come out.

Poor little Mo, he had just come out to get some fresh air when he was "driven" back.

The body in his arms had completely relaxed. Wakaba Mu released his arms from around his neck, took two steps back, and resumed his quiet, slightly stiff posture, standing in front of him.

She looked up at Kujo Renji, her clear eyes filled with a pure, unadulterated...expectation.

Then, she opened her arms again.

That movement was exactly the same as the one Mortis had made just before he pounced on her, both of them were silently waiting for a hug.

Jiujo Liansi was a little surprised, but also felt relieved:

"Is it resolved so quickly?"

Hearing this, Ruo Yemu did not say anything and maintained his original posture.
