“…Ahem.”
Hachiman Kairin coughed a few times and winked at Misumi Hatsuka.
Misaka Hatsuka nodded, grabbed Yutenji's hand, and dragged the clueless guy out the door before Xiangzi, who was already exasperated, could explode.
Mikasa nodded to Yamada Ryo, who was standing near the door.
Yamada Ryo snorted and glanced at Toyokawa Shoko in Narusawa Kaede's arms.
"Feng, I have something to tell you when I'm done with this."
Volume 1: The Most Normal Campus Life... Perhaps?
Chapter 47: Blonde, Green, and Blue Hair, is 3
When Hachiman Kairin left right after her, suddenly only two... no, three people remained in the room.
Mingze Feng looked down at Xiangzi in his arms. At this moment, her cheeks were flushed, interspersed with a few faint signs of collapse. It was an expression of 'I'm too ashamed to face anyone now, but it doesn't matter', which was invincible.
So invincible that Naruzawa Kaede couldn't take his eyes off her.
Not to mention that he didn't even notice Wakaba Mutsu, who was sitting in the corner of the room with her back to him, trying her best to hold her breath and not turning her head.
Toyokawa Shoko gently rested her head on Narusawa Kaede's shoulder, and the two of them nestled together in the embrace of the beanbag chair. However, Narusawa Kaede lay on the sofa, while she nestled against him.
Toyokawa Shoko had a lot to say, especially at this moment, with her hair pressing down on her and Naruzawa Kaede's sides, those words churned in her heart, and even her fingertips trembled slightly.
How did you get back...?
Are you... missing me?
But Toyokawa Shoko really didn't want to break the warm atmosphere, so she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue and pouted instead.
Mingze Feng then kissed him.
When Naruzawa Kaede turned his face away, Toyokawa Shoko, still wanting more, wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Ah…”
Toyokawa Shoko lay back down, leaning against Narusawa Kaede's chest, and closed her eyes.
Comfortable... Suddenly, only these two words remained in my entire being.
Perhaps this is love. When you're immersed in it, you forget even your exhaustion and breakdown.
It's as if all those infuriating, heartbreaking, and painful things have found their most effective remedy.
Whether you call it peace of mind or comfort, it's all the same.
Toyokawa Shoko nestled her face into Narusawa Kaede's arms, while Narusawa Kaede gently patted her shoulder.
Toyokawa Shoko pursed her lips and gently rubbed her face against the fabric on Narusawa Kaede's chest.
So, how long did you actually sleep?
Toyokawa Shoko didn't know. But at this moment, she was wide awake. Even though those devastating things had just happened, Toyokawa Shoko felt that nothing was a big deal anymore.
Wait, what just happened?
Toyokawa Shoko's lips turned down as she raised her head.
When she looked up, Mingze Feng was running his hand through the hair behind her shoulder.
As Toyokawa Shoko's chin rested on Narusawa Kaede's chest, she used her hand to create a small gap between the two of them.
"Feng, I feel like... I'm too ashamed to face anyone."
"No, your teammates are all good people."
Mingze Feng hugged Fengchuan Xiangzi and leaned on him, talking to her about the time he had just met her teammates.
"Speaking of which, Hailing and I have known each other for a long time. She was quite surprised when she came in with Sanjiao Chuhua. She told me everything. Xiang, you're not in a good mood today..."
"As expected, it's because..."
Toyokawa Shoko's lips were pursed, and even her shoulders were trembling slightly.
Those trembling, golden eyes that looked over were filled with a layer of mist.
Mingze Feng's heart softened. Even though he had seen the answer, he still changed his words and said, "I... about the Triangle Flower, I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the temptation."
But Toyokawa Shoko didn't answer; she just stared blankly into Narusawa Kaede's eyes.
Mingze Feng's hand was already on Xiangzi's cheek, his thumb pressed against Xiangzi's cheekbone, ready to wipe away her tears.
But Toyokawa Shoko did not cry at this time.
Her eyes widened, her lips trembled, she opened them but didn't speak.
Out of the corner of his eye, Mingze Feng saw what she wanted to say.
That was something that greatly surprised her and that she found difficult to accept.
So, you already knew?
Toyokawa Shoko snorted, and the moment she closed her eyes, tears streamed down her cheeks, only to be wiped away by Narusawa Kaede's hand.
As Toyokawa Shoko felt the caress on her cheek, she lost all desire to enjoy the comforting sensation.
But I don't want to talk about this.
Mentioning it won't help...
【Maple, you know that... that's why you said that... right...?】
Resting her head against Narusawa Kaede again, Toyokawa Shoko murmured, "Then I'll have to punish you properly. About Hatsuka, right? No, there's also..."
“Mutual.” Toyokawa Shoko didn’t turn around, and her voice was soft.
She knew from the beginning that Mu was here.
Toyokawa Shoko knew that Mutsu would always be there. As for the reason... it was simply her belief. Just as she believed that even if they were separated by thousands of miles, Narusawa Kaede would come to her side the moment he heard her voice.
Just like what Toyokawa Shoko herself once did.
Even in the equally small room, Toyokawa Shoko's voice still reached Wakaba Mutsu's ears.
"Let Chuhua in. You come in too."
Ruoye Mutsu's shoulders trembled. The girl, who had been sitting in the chair with her head down, holding her guitar, finally raised her head again.
Ruoye Mu raised her calm eyes and glanced up at the mirror on the dressing table.
She asked herself inwardly, "When did my head start to droop?"
The mirror reflected a couple on the sofa, all lovey-dovey and affectionate.
When Mu first sat here, she was only worried about Xiangzi.
Later, when Naruzawa Kaede sat on one side of the sofa and held Shoko's hand, Wakaba Mutsu's gaze was inevitably drawn to Naruzawa Kaede.
Then, when did he start bowing his head?
Was it when Naruzawa Kaede lowered his head to kiss Shoko's hand, or when he kissed her face?
really...
'In Feng's eyes, there was only Xiangzi.'
'Nobody cares about Xiao Mu at all.'
It seemed that Wakaba Mutsu heard some strange noises again.
"Mu."
It seemed as if Wakaba Mutsu heard Shoko's voice again.
She paused for a moment, looking at Mingze Feng in the mirror.
"...Ah, I understand."
Wakaba Mu nodded.
It's unclear who she was referring to, since it seems no one was watching her.
"..."
Even after escorting Misumi Hatsuka inside, Wakaba Mutsumi remained lost in thought in the hallway outside, still clutching her guitar. Hachiman Kairin seemed to have gone off to attend to company matters. Yutenji Wakana was also missing; Wakaba Mutsumi hadn't seen her since coming out, so she must have fled somewhere to seek refuge.
After all, Yutenji Wakame was always doing things that Shoko didn't want her to do.
In the past, people like this would have been drowned in the Seto Inland Sea.
That said, we didn't see Ms. Yamada Ryo either.
In this case.
"...I'm all alone again."
Ruoye Mu stood there for a long time, blowing on her hair, before murmuring this sentence in a voice only she could hear.
But it seemed like only a very short while later, the door opened, revealing the head of Sanjiao Chuhua.
"Mu, come in quickly..."
“...Huh?” Wakaba Mutsu was clearly stunned.
Mikasa looked very anxious and grabbed Wakaba Mutsu's wrist.
"Xiangzi said you should be there too... I'm a little scared, but if you were there... Feng also said you'd be there..."
What exactly Mikami Hatsuka said, Wakaba Mutsu didn't actually hear clearly. Mikami Hatsuka herself didn't speak clearly either; she was so emotionally agitated that she spoke so rapidly that she didn't even hear what she was saying.
Wakaba Mutsu soon spotted Shoko sitting gracefully.
Unlike her previous haggard appearance.
Xiangzi now seems to be suddenly full of energy, as if he has finally found a miracle cure after a long illness.
If Ye Mu knew, that was the truth.
Xiangzi found her medicine.
Wakaba Mutsu knew about it a very, very long time ago.
It's Xiangzi's... Xiangzi's...
"...That's...wonderful..."
A light smile finally appeared on Wakaba Mutsumi's face. Her previously dull eyes seemed to be filled with joy.
Toyokawa Shoko nodded to Wakaba Mutsu, indicating that she had received this joy, and then she slowly walked up to Mika Sanka, who was looking on with anticipation.
She thought back to what she had heard last night. To be honest, accepting it was true, but...
Do you really think seducing men won't make her angry?
And... thinking back to what those two people talked about yesterday...
Toyokawa Shoko's gaze fell on Mikasa Hatsuka's profile.
Under the expectant gaze of Sanjiao Chuhua.
With a loud "snap."
Toyokawa Shoko slapped him.
Amidst everyone's stunned gazes, Misaka Hatsuka covered her burning cheek and turned her head back in disbelief.
Why did you hide it from me?
Shoko Toyokawa's voice made Hatsuka Mikado suddenly lose the strength to stand up. Her legs went weak, and the expectant look in her eyes disappeared.
They became terrified.
Those were eyes that were even more confused and pained than those of the stunned Naruzawa Kaede and Wakaba Mutsu.
Then, just as Mikasa Hatsuka's shoulders trembled with fear, Toyokawa Shoko gently took her hand.
Then, he pulled Misaka Hatsuka along and put his arm around her shoulder.
"Huh?" Sankaku Hatsuka was stunned.
"Why did you go through so much, go through such and such things, but not tell me? What's the point of hiding these things from me? Why can't you try to trust me even a little? Why do you keep so many things to yourself, but won't tell me anything at all?"
