Tokyo Sick Girlfriend

Chapter 43 Crafty
Shiratori Seiya stood on the field, holding his bamboo sword in both hands, waiting for Hasegawa Saori to put on her headgear, still wondering what she was going to do.

The reason I refused earlier was partly because I knew the gap between myself and Saori was too great, and there was no need to compare.

On the other hand, it's because I brought Mio Takahashi with me today, and I don't want her to know too much about my past.

He certainly didn't care about other people's opinions, since he didn't usually put much effort into socializing in the club and his relationship with these people was just superficial.

Even if I get utterly thrashed, I don't care what they say about me.

After all, any student who goes up here will be whipped by the bamboo sword until they question their existence.

But since she's already said something like "a request for a lifetime," it's indeed hard to refuse.

In my memory, Saori rarely asked him for anything.

Even on her birthday, she never made any requests, and she never mentioned birthday gifts or anything like that.

He cherished the bracelet and wooden knife he had given her, and would hold the wooden knife and grin foolishly all day long.

But if you had to pick the gift I gave her the most, it would be shoes.

Her athletic talent is so strong that she can run from morning till night when she starts training.

And most importantly, she stomps the ground with tremendous force; if the shoes aren't of good quality, the soles will fall off after only a day or two...

Her greatest hobbies are eating and sleeping; she has virtually no other desires or greed.

Aside from being a bit clingy, they are quite easy to raise.

On the contrary, she never refused any of her own requests.

We told her to practice kendo properly, and she persisted every day, rain or shine, without ever slacking off.

If you make her study hard, she can stare at the test paper all day long until her eyes are bloodshot.

Of course, even so, I still didn't get many questions right in the end.

God opened a window for her, and rightfully closed the door.

In short, no matter what she asks her to do, Saori Hasegawa will give it her all.

Even if I'm not good at it and I feel extremely clumsy during the process, I will never refuse.

No one worked harder than her. Even now, Shiratori Seiya believes that the existence of such a pure person as her is a blessing for this world.

Simple and lovely, pure and clear like uncut jade.

This description is most fitting for her.

Having not seen each other for so long, fragments of past memories flooded back, and Shiratori Seiya was filled with emotion.

He believed that if they could meet on another occasion, it would be much more pleasant than it is now.

However, I also had some doubts. Why was Saori, such a simple person, acting so persistent today?

Does he want to beat himself up?
We broke up more than three years ago.

This doesn't seem like something she would do...

Just as he was thinking this, Saori Hasegawa, already wearing protective gear, stood opposite him.

coming.

Shiratori Seiya put aside his thoughts. Although Hasegawa Saori was a head shorter than him, just standing in front of her and having witnessed her terrifying strength, he felt an overwhelming pressure rushing towards him.

'call……'

Shiratori Seiya took a deep breath, and after exchanging greetings with her according to procedure, he gripped the bamboo sword tightly in both hands.

'Beep! '

As the whistle blew, all the muscles in his body tensed up as he stared at her feet and the movements of her hands.

Even if you can't win at all, you should at least give it your all.

'Shuh! '

Just as Hasegawa Saori moved, he felt a gust of wind rush towards him.

Shiratori Seiya's heart sank, and he quickly raised his bamboo sword to block the opponent's attack.

However, when Saori was only a step away from him, the girl suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Immediately afterwards, Shiratori Seiya felt his bamboo sword being gently tapped.

?

The expected storm of attacks did not come, and Shiratori Seiya was taken aback.

What kind of new sword technique is this?

I don't remember that this was one of the kendo styles I redeemed for her.

Shiratori Seiya was wondering what was wrong with her when he suddenly felt a weight on his body.

He realized that the girl had already thrown herself on him, her bamboo sword resting against his arm. "?"

Fujiyama Keio, who was standing nearby as the referee, widened his eyes upon seeing this, momentarily unsure whether to raise the white or red flag. (In kendo, both fighters wear red and white strips behind their headgear to help the referee determine who scores first.)
Huh? Shiratori-kun, are we also part of your game?

The thought couldn't help but pop into his mind.

The entire dojo fell silent for two seconds, followed by hushed whispers of discussion.

Shiratori Seiya's eyelids twitched, and he reached out to push the girl in front of him, whispering:

"Saori, what are you doing?"

"My foot slipped."

"..."

Shiratori Seiya opened his mouth, feeling that Saori's excuse couldn't be worse, and couldn't help but urge her:
"Get up quickly."

"I can't get up..."

As Saori spoke, she snuggled closer to him and took a deep breath.

Shiratori Seiya noticed her movement, felt a pang of unease, and said in a serious tone:
"If you don't get up, I'm leaving right now."

"Oh, I'm all set then."

This tactic seemed to work. Hasegawa Saori nodded slightly, then regained her footing and took two steps back.

'Beep! '

Fujiyama Keio seemed to be enjoying himself, insisting on waiting until the weaving was finished before blowing the whistle. Shiratori Seiya glared at him fiercely through his mask.

I really don't know if he has any professional ethics as a referee.

This is utterly disgraceful of a minister! It's a disgrace to the spirit of kendo!
"White has fouled. Get ready for the second round."

With Fujiyama Keio's sentencing, the two returned to their respective positions.

'Beep! '

When the whistle blew again, Saori Hasegawa once again rushed towards Seiya Shiratori like a shooting star.

Shiratori Seiya became wary this time and quickly stepped aside, thrusting his hand back towards Hasegawa Saori's throat.

'Snapped! '

Hasegawa Saori's bamboo sword slid from the tip of his sword, and she pressed down hard with her palm, causing Shiratori Seiya's bamboo sword to deflect.

He was about to adjust his pace when the girl flicked the bamboo sword in his hand and pressed down on him again.

Come again? !
Shiratori Seiya was taken aback. Just as he was about to turn away, the girl had already snuggled into his arms...

…………

The audience erupted in uproar, with a cacophony of voices rising and falling.

"What are they doing? They can't be this blatant about letting things slide, can they? What kind of game are they playing?"

"This is clearly an overreaction."

"Has it been changed? Is this still the same monster from before?"

"What are they doing? What is Shiratori-kun doing?"

"Why does this foreplay look like something I've seen in a movie or TV show?"

"Can I borrow a phone to talk to you..."

"..."

Yokoyama Miyu stared wide-eyed at the scene, feeling as if the sky had fallen.

Saori, what are you doing? Is this your real purpose?

She had just guessed that Saori Hasegawa liked this guy named Shiratori, but she never expected her to do something like this...

……

In the corner, Mio Takahashi bit her lip, narrowed her eyes, and stared coldly at the two people on the field.

Slender fingers dug into the foam board, leaving nail marks on it.

After a while, she took a deep breath, took out her phone from her pocket, and took seven or eight pictures of the two people on the field.

She opened Hojo Shione's chat window, selected two photos, and sent them over.
