Am I being simulated by their love affair?

"I'm so full, Songzhi, shall we walk back?"

"It will be all right."

The ice cream ball began to melt gradually, presenting a wonderful taste. Matsueda Jun licked it in small sips, attracting the girl's attention.

It took less than twenty minutes to walk back to the apartment from here. They stopped at the intersection and waited for the red light to countdown.

"Is it that beautiful?" He retracted his tongue and looked at the girl who was staring at him.

"Hmm...how should I put it?" Kurusu frowned and began to search for words. "It feels very tempting, astringent."

"It's just tongue."

"You do not understand!"

She ate the rest of her ice cream cone in a few bites, making a crunching sound. The green light came on, and the two of them walked across the zebra crossing. The girl finished chewing.

"Matsuzhi rarely laughs, and his tongue only shows when he's eating, and that's hidden inside his mouth."

They crossed the street side by side, from the small path to the main road, and walked under the street lights. Their shadows shortened and lengthened, running from the front to the back and then back to the front, completing a cycle.

The night wind is still chilly. Tokyo in late March is still waiting for the real spring.

"Now stick out your tongue and lick the ice cream. When something you don't normally see is dangling in front of you, it takes on a kind of forbidden allure."

"Isn't this the same reason why people want to see under girls' skirts and breasts?"

Kurusu Yoshi's words made the wind on the street hotter, and Matsueda Jun sped up his eating of the ice cream, from licking to biting.

"That sounds quite reasonable."

The girl raised her chin proudly. "As an idol, of course I have to understand the nature of attraction."

After their shadows stretched and jumped like springs thirty-six times, they arrived at the bottom of the apartment building.

As we were going up the stairs, the girl next to Jun Matsueda suddenly said.

"Mochizuki suddenly handed the cat to us and acted like he was going on a long journey. Could it be related to Songzhi?"

"Why are you asking about this suddenly?"

"Because..." The girl who went upstairs turned back to observe his expression, "Ever since coming from Jinzhi, you've been checking your phone more frequently these past few days."

Jun Matsueda felt the ice cream he had just swallowed begin to emit a cool air in his stomach.

"It was indeed a message from her." He thought for the time it took to rise two steps, and felt that there was nothing to hide.

Kurusu is not his girlfriend, and Mochizuki has no close relationship with him, so what is there to hide?

"Hehe, as expected..." Kurusu Yoshi stepped into the corridor and chuckled twice, "Is Matsueda going to dokidoki with her?"

"I just had a physical before the end of the semester, and my heart rhythm is normal."

Jun Matsueda touched his chest. The second button closest to his heart was still on his school uniform.

The girl took out the key to open the door, walked into the entrance hall and changed her shoes. Jun Matsueda turned on the light in the room, and the cat's eyes with a faint glow appeared from the darkness.

Jinzhi called out twice obediently and walked towards the two of them, but was stopped by the girl who had changed into slippers.

"Go away, you spy! I was so nice to you, but I didn't expect you were here to win favor on behalf of your master!"

Kurusu pointed at the little female cat's nose and criticized her seriously, "We humans can't be moved by a few meows from a stupid cat like you!"

Although he was clearly scolding the cat, Jun Matsueda had the illusion that he was being scolded too.

The girl walked into the room angrily and took out her pajamas. "Songzhi, do you want to wash first or should I?"

"You go first, you have to go to work tomorrow."

The girl who was angry just now suddenly became sad and walked slowly into the bathroom.

"I'm so angry! Why can you take a day off but I have to work?"

"The road of being an idol is so difficult." Matsueda Jun comforted her in her own way, but Kurusu Yoshi was still mumbling in the bathroom.

When the shower sounded, Jun Matsueda drank the freshly heated milk while adding food to the cat's empty bowl.

The golden stuffed toy walked over to Jun Matsueda and circled between his legs.

He put down the cup in his hand, picked up Jinzhi, sat on the sofa and looked at it. The cat's expression was very gentle, with its eyes slightly squinted, looking drowsy.

"Is this also your way of gaining favor? Hmm?"

Jun Matsueda shook the liquid-like creature in his hand. It cried out, broke free from his hand, and jumped to the food bowl to eat.

After Matsueda Jun finished his shower, Kurusu Yoshi brought out a flat, square machine from his room with a black disc in his hand.

"I've finished recording my album, let me show you~"

So before going to bed tonight, 507 and his cat lay on the sofa, listening to the beautiful singing of the girl coming from the record player.

"I pretended not to know the taste of love beginning~"

"I kept laughing the day we separated~"

Jun Matsueda placed his hands flat on his chest, leaning against the soft pillow. The hot water from the shower and the milk he drank made his body begin to radiate warmth inside and out. The laziness and tiredness that only appeared during holidays finally came to his mind.

Perhaps distance creates beauty. He looked at the long creature lying on the girl's legs opposite him, wondering what he was thinking.

Kurusu Yoshi's singing, the cat's meowing and Mochizuki Haruka's voice began to float in his mind, spinning along with the record on the machine.

Before Jun Matsueda's brain turned into a mess, his cell phone rang.

Unlock the screen and the parrot avatar in the chat interface flashes.

That was news from Yamamiya Moki.

Chapter 220: Girl's Dissection

Although it was vacation, Jun Matsueda appeared on the campus of Ueno High School.

Walking through the corridor on the first floor, when passing by the classroom of Class 2, Grade 1, he took a closer look. The paper airplanes and paper roses folded by someone were still on the windowsill of the classroom, slightly yellowed by the sun.

"I wonder if the classrooms for next semester will be on the second or third floor..." He walked towards the stairwell.

If Jun Matsueda were to choose, he would think the second floor would be better, as it is closer to the vending machines at the bottom of the building and it would be faster to get to the cafeteria.

The sunlight at nine o'clock in the morning was a little dazzling. His footsteps were the only sound in the corridor on the third floor. This lonely silence was a little scary. Fortunately, Jun Matsueda knew that someone was waiting for him at the end of the corridor.

He walked to the door of the second-to-last classroom, confirmed the doorplate of "Biology Experiment Classroom (2)", knocked twice, neither lightly nor heavily, and pushed the door open and entered.

The curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out the sunlight. A faint chill lingered in the classroom. A girl in a white lab coat stood in the center, the cold white light on full blast, leaving no shadow behind her feet.

"Senior Yamami." Matsueda Jun called softly, and the girl holding the blade turned around.

"Matsueda-san is here~" Yamamiya Maki turned around and smiled with surprise, and the cold atmosphere in the room dissipated.

"Is the senior doing a slice? Be careful of getting cut."

"Yes, I will pay attention!" The girl nodded seriously, and the blade in her hand trembled slightly.

As she prepared to exert force, the girl's eyelashes trembled, her breathing became rapid, and the thin and shiny blade flashed in the air.

Yamamiya Moki's surprised cry was still heard in the classroom.

"It's okay, there's no bleeding, just a little bit of skin was cut off." Jun Matsueda picked up the blade that the girl put down, and there was a small piece of thin transparent skin on it.

"The preparation failed when sliced ​​from celery petioles, but was successful when sliced ​​from human skin tissue."

"Don't laugh at me..." Yamami Maki said with a bit of grievance, "Why do we have to take the test on slicing with bare hands?"

There was a Band-Aid on the girl's finger, which was left there a few days ago. The two of them had been to the experimental classroom several times.

"Good question." Matsueda Jun nodded. "You can ask the teacher next time."

Walking through the long corridor in the sunshine and meeting the black-haired girl in a white robe in the laboratory has become a part of Jun Matsueda's spring break routine.

"It seems like it's time to start practicing biology experiments."

This is what Yamami Moki told him on the phone. The girl borrowed the keys to the biology experiment classroom and equipment room from her homeroom teacher and invited Matsueda Jun to use the spring break to practice the competition experiment.

"What experiment are we doing today?" Jun Matsueda put on a white coat, turned on the faucet on the operating table, and washed his hands.

"Let's make plant slices first, then flower dissection and flower programming." Yamami Maki said as she cut a small piece of rhizome from the celery on the tray.

Jun'ya Matsueda picked up a blade and started today's experimental practice. Flashes of knife light flashed in the classroom. The two chatted while slicing the celery in their hands.

"It feels like the spring break went by so quickly." Jun Matsueda sighed. Today is April 29th, and most of the 15-day holiday has passed.

"After all, it's only two weeks." Yamami Moki's tone was not as natural as his, and most of the girl's energy was still on the blade in her hand.

"How did Matsueda-san spend his spring break?"

He put the celery tissue on the blade into water, dipped it with a brush, and placed it on a glass slide to cover it. Then, Jun Matsueda recalled his vacation.

"I work part-time, do homework, feed the cat, and go for a walk with my roommate or Aya-chan in the evening. I don't really do much."

"Once in two days, come with me to the school to cut vegetables." The girl added with a smile, covered the specimen with a coverslip, and absorbed excess moisture with absorbent paper.

"You're not just cutting vegetables, are you? Didn't you also cut all sorts of miscellaneous things the other day?"

Yamamiya Maki wrinkled her nose and looked a little nauseous. They had performed biological dissections of roundworms, river clams and bees with their own hands two days ago, which left a deep impression on the girl.

"Stop talking, Matsueda-san. I feel like my lunch appetite is disappearing."

She placed the prepared celery tissue slices under a microscope, rotated the lens barrel, and observed them under a 40x high-power microscope.

"This slice is pretty good!" the girl exclaimed in surprise. "Although it's a little thick, even the thick cornea is very clear!"

"Senior, you've graduated so quickly?" Jun Matsueda walked to Yamami Matsukio's side, and the girl gave up her position for the microscope.

"Well... indeed, it's a very clear and perfect specimen." Jun Matsueda closed his left eye and observed the microscope with his right eye.

"Is that so?" The girl smiled. She lowered her head and admired the small specimen on the microscope with her naked eyes. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became.

Soon, Yamami Matsukori realized something was wrong. She and Matsueda Jun were both standing in front of the microscope. Perhaps because they were concentrating on the specimen, they did not keep any distance from each other. Their raised arms under their white coats were pressed together, and their shoulders were also very close. A few strands of the girl's black hair fell behind Matsueda Jun's neck. He moved his head, perhaps feeling the itch on his neck.

Feeling the heat from the male body next to her, the girl's cheeks began to heat up rapidly. She hurriedly distanced herself, lifting the chair behind her. The chair legs rubbed against the ground, making a sharp and piercing sound.

Matsueda Jun's eyes left the microscope and looked at the girl beside him in confusion, "What's wrong, senior?"

"Um, no, nothing!" Yamami Moji turned her face to the side, trying to hide her hot cheeks from the boy's gaze. "It's almost lunchtime, let's go eat first!"

Jun Matsueda looked at his phone and swiped away the message with the cat avatar on the lock screen. The time was 10:50.

"Then this morning's experiment will just end with my senior sister's perfect specimen." He took off his lab coat and hung it on the wall, then began to clean up the discarded materials on the operating table.

However, after the cleaning work was completed, Yamami Moki still stood there, motionless.

"Senior sister, aren't you going to take off your lab coat?" He was a little confused.

"Yeah." Yamami Moki came back to her senses, nodded hurriedly, and unbuttoned her white coat. Taking off the lab coat in front of Matsueda Jun made her feel even more embarrassed.

On the way to the restaurant, the girl didn't say a word until she sat at the dining table and looked at the steaming handmade udon noodles in front of her, then Yamami Maki recovered a little.

"Senior, what materials will we use for the flower dissection this afternoon?"

"...Let's use the cherry blossoms in the school." She still didn't dare to look into Matsueda Jun's eyes, but just lowered her head and stared at the hot spring eggs in the bowl.

During the flower dissection experiment in the afternoon, the girl sitting next to Matsueda Jun always had a faint blush on her face.

Just like the cherry blossoms in her hand.

Chapter 221 Before Spring Comes

Two days before school started, Aya Miyamura came to Jun Matsueda's apartment.

"It's so big--" This was the first sentence the girl said when she walked in.

"After all, we're sharing a house, so the space must be bigger."

Jun Matsueda found a pair of guest slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to her. These were also left by Haruka Mochizuki.

"Welcome!" Kurusu Yoshi ran out of the room and gave Miyamura Aya a big hug. "Aya-chan is the guest today, you can do whatever you want with Matsueda~"

"Why not order you around?" Matsueda Jun poured the girl a cup of barley tea and placed it in front of her.

Looking back, it seems like a long time ago that I last served barley tea to guests.

"I'm just here to sit and chat~" Miyamura Aya sat down on the sofa, and the cat curled up in the corner of the sofa called out to her.

"Neko!" The girl carefully touched the cat's tail, and it didn't resist. "You also have a cat!"

"We didn't raise it. It's just staying with us temporarily."

"Whose cat is that?"

"Moon-watching."
