They are really too low!

They are really too low!

作者: 河传

Introduction:

Hoshino Ken never thought that his childhood sweetheart Eriri would be looking at the photos taken secretly of him at night and couldn't help but humming in bed.

What's even worse is that Kasumigaoka Utaha claims that if she can't catch a man, she will drug him. Feng and Ling often pretend to be each other. There is also a group of girls playing in a band who will crawl on the ground in the dark while shouting Hoshino Ken's name from time to time.

Faced with these naive women, Hoshino couldn't help but reflect on himself, wondering if he was too sensitive to them at the time?

Chapter One: First Meeting

The sky darkened, and a sudden downpour began.

Hoshino had just come out of the bookstore and was about to open his umbrella when he heard a crying sound coming from afar.

Not far away, a girl, soaked to the bone and oblivious to the stares of those around her, walked towards the zebra crossing while sobbing loudly.

She cried very loudly; it was the first time Hoshino had ever seen someone so grief-stricken, as if their carefully prepared meal had been stolen.

Although she looked pitiful, no one stopped in their tracks; in fact, they would deliberately avoid the crying girl, unwilling to meddle.

Hoshino looked around and then noticed someone holding an umbrella, standing still, watching the girl's departing figure with a sad expression.

Did they have an argument?

It's easy to draw this conclusion from an outsider's perspective.

Hoshino thought for a moment, then took out her umbrella and walked over.

It wasn't until she got closer to the other person that Hoshino noticed that their shoes were soaked with rainwater. The white socks that were originally hidden underneath were gradually becoming wet, revealing the jade-colored ankles, which felt sticky.

However, the other party seemed completely unaffected.

Hoshino looked away and gazed at the zebra crossing ahead. The girl's figure was almost swallowed up by the crowd and the rain. If she was missed even slightly, she would disappear in the blink of an eye.

"If we don't chase after her soon, she'll be gone."

Upon hearing Hoshino's voice, the other person seemed to finally notice his presence, glancing up at him before lowering her eyes again and clutching the umbrella to her chest even tighter.

The other party did not speak, remaining completely silent.

Hoshino didn't pay any attention; many people react this way when strangers strike up a conversation.

After waiting a while, Hoshino spoke again, "If you walk back in the rain like this, you might catch a cold."

His reminder elicited a response from the other person; her slender, thin body trembled slightly, as if she were trying to muster her courage.

Immediately afterwards, the other person's eyes dimmed again, staring blankly at the street where the girl was no longer there, a sad expression on their face.

“I…I messed up again…” The other person spoke for the first time, but her voice grew softer and softer, sounding very frustrated. “Everyone…the band is going to end.”

Hoshino almost didn't hear what she was saying, but when she heard the word "band," she could guess the reason.

The girl in front of me was probably a middle school student. She was wearing a long dress, and her exposed skin was soft, delicate, and flawless. Her soft eyebrows were not ostentatious at all, and her delicate lips had faint lines. She was just slightly pursed, looking like she was in pain.

It's common to have minor conflicts with bandmates during adolescence over trivial matters.

Perhaps they didn't practice hard enough, and their teammates started arguing and criticizing each other. Or perhaps someone was frequently absent, making it impossible for everyone to practice and perform on stage normally.

In short, Hoshino felt that this situation was normal, especially for a band that was still in the process of getting to know each other.

“If you don’t mind, I can give her the umbrella for you.” Hoshino offered her hand readily. “It just so happens that the direction she’s going back in is the same way I’m going home.”

Perhaps not expecting Hoshino to help this stranger, the girl stood there stunned.

……

The sky was gloomy, and it was still raining. The streets were full of people hurrying by.

Shoko Toyokawa wiped away her tears. She knew she could never go back. All the beautiful things that had happened were over.

She had clearly found a goal to strive for, and she had finally managed to perform on stage with everyone for the first time. However, her life now seemed unable to bear this happiness and joy.

Whenever she thinks about what she's been through these past few days, Toyokawa Shoko can't help but cry again.

Even though she tried her best to control her emotions, she couldn't stop crying. She cried harder and harder, tears streaming down her face, as if she wanted to release all the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time in one go with this heavy rain.

After crying for a while, Toyokawa Shoko finally vented her emotions, and all that was left was a sniffling sound.

At that moment, the icy rain fell on her, and the girl shivered all over. Her clothes were already soaked, and she belatedly felt a cold, damp chill.

The girl walked along the road with a blank expression, almost bumping into passersby several times, but no one cared about her.

The girl knew that no one would care about her, and that perhaps no one in the world cared about her anymore.

That's why she made the decision to leave the band today; she had to end her own cowardly past.

Perhaps she was too tired, she didn't pay attention to the road and accidentally bumped into a crack in the pavement. She staggered and almost fell.

Paji——

The girl's heart skipped a beat, as if she could already imagine herself falling to the ground.

Just then, someone grabbed her arm, and the rain that had been falling on her suddenly stopped.

"Be careful when you walk. If you fall, it won't just be a cold today."

Shoko Toyokawa subconsciously turned around and saw a boy standing next to her, holding an umbrella while grabbing her arm.

Her mind was in a state of confusion. Because she didn't expect anyone to help her, she let the other person pull her up and then help her stand up.

However, looking at the face so close to hers, Toyokawa Shoko quickly came to her senses; it was the first time she had ever been so close to a boy.

Toyokawa Shoko quickly pulled her arm back, then realized that her reaction was inappropriate, took a few deep breaths, and pretended to be calm.

"Thank you for reminding me, I will keep it in mind."

The boy was none other than Hoshino Mi. He had just caught up with Toyokawa Shoko when he saw her staggering, so he stepped in to help.

Hoshino looked the girl over and over again. To be honest, the girl looked particularly pitiful at that moment.

Because she had been soaked in the rain, the girl was completely drenched, her hair was wet, and water droplets streamed down her hair. A few strands of hair clung to her earlobes and her fair, glossy neck, giving her a delicate, almost ethereal beauty.

Her clothes were also soaking wet, clinging almost tightly to the girl's delicate body. Her full breasts outlined her slender waist, and the skirt below revealed a pair of straight and slender legs with skin as delicate and translucent as jade.

Hoshino noticed that her little leather shoes were also soaked with rainwater, and her white socks were sticky and clinging to the girl's delicate feet, probably not very comfortable.

Although he didn't say anything, Toyokawa Shoko knew she looked very pathetic, so she bit her lip and turned to leave. She didn't want to stay there any longer.

"Wait a minute, don't walk so fast." Hoshino picked up the umbrella and shopping bag that had just fallen on the ground, then stuffed the umbrella into Toyokawa Shoko's hand. "This is the umbrella your friend gave you. Remember to return it to her next time."

Toyokawa Shoko was stunned for a moment, until she remembered a certain figure and then she realized what was happening.

"You...you know Xiao Mu?" Toyokawa Shoko looked surprised.

Hoshino shook her head and said, "I don't know her. I was just helping her out. She seems to really want to catch up with you."

In an instant, Toyokawa Shoko gripped the umbrella tightly in her hand.

For some reason, Hoshino felt that the girl looked even more disheveled than before.

Hoshino thought for a moment, then took off his coat and draped it over Toyokawa Shoko's shoulders in front of her.

"Wait, wait, what are you doing?" Toyokawa Shoko was a little panicked. The two didn't know each other at all, and the other party should have no reason to do such a thing.

"Don't rush to refuse. You don't want to catch a cold tomorrow, do you?" Hoshino said nonchalantly. "Although I don't know what happened between you two, go back and get a good night's sleep. Maybe the things that upset you today will become worthless tomorrow."

Shoko Toyokawa bit her lip; logically, she shouldn't accept something from a stranger.

However, the moment the coat was draped over her shoulders, she felt a long-lost warmth.

The girl instinctively wrapped her coat tighter. In fact, when Hoshino Mi spoke, she already knew that Hoshino Mi was a complete stranger who had no idea that she had left the band, let alone that she and Wakaba Mutsu were together.

If it were someone she knew, Toyokawa Shoko would not accept this sympathy and pity.

It was precisely because the two were strangers that the kindness of the stranger prevented Toyokawa Shoko from falling into an embarrassing situation.

"Toyokawa, my name is Toyokawa Shoko," the girl suddenly said. "Could you tell me your name?"

Hoshino remained expressionless as he finally heard those words.

The instant Toyokawa Shoko spoke, something resembling a game window appeared before Hoshino Mi's eyes.

[Target: Toyokawa Shoko]

[Intimacy: 10]

[Status: Due to family circumstances, I have left the band and am currently emotionally unstable...]

[From our first meeting today, Toyokawa Shoko already has some impression of you.]

[Toyokawa Shoko's intimacy with you has increased. You can choose one of the following options.]

[One: Charm +1]

[Part Two: Acquire the skill "Music Theory LV1"]

[Part 3: Toyokawa Shoko wore her little leather shoes all day long]

……

Upon seeing the last option, Hoshino subconsciously glanced at the girl's little leather shoes.

P.S.: This is a new author and a new book, please be kind to me!

Updates will be held at 6 PM and 9 PM, twice a day.

Addendum: It seems that people aren't interested in the Chinese names, so the main character's name has been changed here.

Chapter Two: Childhood Sweethearts

"I am back."

Hoshino had just returned to her familiar home when she soon heard a series of pattering footsteps.

A girl walked towards him, her seemingly delicate body crashing solidly into Hoshino's arms. Before he could even savor the soft, boneless intimacy, a few strands of her hair fell onto his nose, carrying the girl's unique fragrance.

Hoshino touched the other person's head, looked up at the sofa in the living room, and saw a blonde girl with twin ponytails looking very unhappy.

"Hmph, you're really late today." As if complaining, she glanced at the shopping bag in Hoshino's hand. "With such heavy rain, you still had the mood to go out and buy books. Could it be something strange?"

As soon as the words were spoken, a game window appeared in Hoshino's field of vision.

[Target: Eriri Sawamura Spencer]

[Intimacy: 79]

[Status: I consider them childhood sweethearts, currently calming down and maintaining my composure...]

The girl's name is Eriri Sawamura. Because she is of British and Japanese descent, she has striking blonde hair and delicate features that make her look like a porcelain doll. Her fair and smooth skin has a touch of youthful innocence.

However, her chest barely rose and fell. Although one knew that the girl's body was still stubbornly developing, one could only say that the future was promising.

Hoshino was not surprised by Eriri's appearance, because Eriri had been running to her house since elementary school.

They've known each other for seven years, from elementary school to middle school, and now to high school—they've been childhood sweethearts.

Well, Hoshino selectively ignored the content that appeared in the game window.

"Why did you come here? If the rain hasn't stopped by tonight, I won't take you home," Hoshino said casually.

"Who needs you to take me? It's not like I don't have legs. It's such a short distance, I could walk back with my eyes closed!" Eriri put her hands on her hips and snorted.

She was able to frequently visit Hoshino's house, of course, because their homes weren't far apart.

Hoshino placed the umbrella next to the entrance. At that moment, the girl in his arms reacted, suddenly raising her pretty face and looking into his eyes.

The game window reappeared the next moment.

[Target: Kasugano Sora]

[Intimacy: 88]

[Status: Dislikes children's bodies and wants to stay with her older brother all the time...]
