The Witch Trial Begins with the OO Buckethead Zombie

All Emma Sakura can say is that he was wrong.

From the very beginning, from the moment he agreed to be my friend, he was already very, very, very important.

What I want to see is a lifetime.

What about high school life, what about a new environment, what about making more friends?

If you ask Sakura Emma whether she wants it or not.

That's definitely what I want.

After all, being surrounded by a hundred friends was a long-held wish of hers.

But let's put aside whether she might make new friends in a new environment, let's just assume she might.

Giving up on Hoshino and such for the sake of making friends before even getting to know them...

Am I really that stupid?

Perhaps it doesn't matter anymore, no more "perhaps"! I don't want to hear Hoshino's "perhaps"!

Hoshino always uses the word "maybe" to presuppose things that seem good but are actually not good at all.

If, supposing, perhaps.

If Emma doesn't need it, then perhaps Hoshino isn't important.

That's always been his opinion.

But Emma Sakura didn't think so.

Thank goodness.

Unexpected events will come before tomorrow.

The situation changed drastically.

Hiro's return, Yuki's death, Hoshino's coma.

Something so wrong it couldn't be more wrong, a situation so bad it couldn't be worse.

But it's alright.

Truly, a dark and despicable heart is saying "it's alright."

Thankfully, Xiaoxue took the initiative to let go; thankfully, Shiro made a big mistake; thankfully, Hoshino can only rely on me now.

Thankfully, Hoshino eventually woke up.

'In severe cases, a distorted possessiveness'

Well, actually, Emma Sakura doesn't understand very well.

Although she knew what Hoshino Utsunomiya was saying, she couldn't understand it.

It's only natural to want to get close to Hoshino, and it's perfectly natural to want to be close to him.

However, their behavior doesn't seem to respect gender differences, and they maintain a distance that crosses boundaries...

No matter how hard Emma Sakura searched, she couldn't find it in her memories of waking up in prison.

I haven't done anything yet!

I didn’t even get a chance to hold Hoshino’s little hand again, so why did you have to say such hurtful things!

The girl wasn't entirely clueless.

If we're talking about memories that fit the description...

She still has it.

Yes, that is, the memories after Hoshino fell into a coma, before he woke up from the prison.

Hoshino on the hospital bed, Hoshino unconscious, Hoshino unable to resist.

If I had to say, it's true that they don't really care about the differences between men and women, and there's definitely no sense of distance between them...

But Hoshino will never know!

Since Hoshino doesn't know, then it didn't happen!

Therefore, Emma Sakura couldn't understand.

However, if Hoshino says he understands him.

Then Emma Sakura will understand.

Yes, yes, that's exactly what I think, that's my opinion.

I would never want Hoshino to befriend a bad person like Nikaido Shiro. If I have to be mindful of Nikaido Shiro's feelings to associate with Hoshino, if I have to consider Nikaido Shiro's opinions in everything I do...

Look what it's become!

The one who should be watching her expression and acting accordingly is Nikaido Hiro!

Hoshino, don't you understand? Since you understand, you should break up with Nikaido quickly!

Anyway, they're just trainee lovers with no feelings for each other.

The puppy secretly wagged its hidden tail.

But what she heard next made her tail stand up straight in an instant.

Hoshino's words were all based on putting himself in others' shoes; he was speaking from Sakura Emma's perspective.

In other words, the unavoidable but still uttered phrase "I wish you happiness" corresponds to the presupposed premise of this outcome.

That's exactly what Hoshino Utsunomiya was thinking.

He did want a relationship, and he genuinely felt that Nikaido Hiro was a good match.

So, in his place, he would want to hear "I wish you happiness" from Emma Sakura.

If you want to be in a relationship, come find me! Why don't you come find your good friend, Hero?

Hero is not suitable at all! Your intuition is wrong! Hero is the least suitable one!

I will never wish you happiness. You will not be happy with Hero!

I'll just wait and see, and when you're unhappy, I'll make you realize who the real person who can bring you happiness is!

This is Emma Sakuraba's reaction.

As for what followed, he seemed very serious and cautious, as if making a promise to put her mind at ease...

It's all nonsense.

Whether Hoshino Utsunomiya will distance herself from her friends because of her relationship is something others may not know, but Emma Sakuraba certainly does.

Emma Sakura never worried about this.

Even during the most ambiguous period between Hoshino and Yuki, Hoshino always arrived at the rooftop on time.

How could a mere Nikaido Hiro possibly completely restrain Hoshino?

There was only one thing Emma Sakura was worried about.

The words that Hoshino Utsunomiya uttered at that moment were a complete misunderstanding.

She had to say it.

This misconception needs to be clarified.

......

Emma Sakuraba's problem is not just a matter for Hoshino Utsunomiya alone.

As Emma's friend, and the person directly responsible for causing Sakura Emma to run away crying, Ms. Nikaido Hiro, who accepted Utsunomiya Hoshino's suggestion to try dating, knew very well.

This is also a mistake that she needs to correct.

Originally, her idea was to admit that she was bullying Emma and try to force Emma to get angry at her and point out her sins.

Ideally, Emma Sakura would stand up, point at herself, and say, "You're the one who bullied me! Apologize to me!"

In this way, she can take the opportunity to apologize, and then use the apology to point out Sakura Emma's mistakes in a way that Emma can accept.

To criticize, rebuke, explain, and persuade.

Nikaido Hiro has always been like this.

It's obvious that Emma Sakura won't listen to her accusations right now, so it might be better to apologize first before criticizing her.

However, before she could react, after that slightly noticeable large hand touched her thigh, Hoshino Utsunomiya seemed to have made up her mind.

So let him talk.

If it were him, Emma might have listened more attentively.

Incidentally, if possible, I should also try to glean something from his words.

Therefore, Nikaido Hiro listened very quietly.

but.

Can't understand.

Thoroughly, completely, I don't understand a single bit.

Why can't I stand it anymore? Why don't I hate Emma anymore? Why am I praising her as a good girl?

Didn't you see Emma's ears turned red? Stop praising her, or she'll become even more dependent on you!

Nikaido Shiro finally understands why Sakura Emma turned out this way. So, Utsunomiya Hoshino is the real culprit!

Emma is the kind of person who can't take praise at all!

The more you praise her, the more ecstatic she becomes; the more you praise her, the happier she becomes with silly laughter.

You should point out her mistakes, criticize her stupidity, and impatiently say, "How can she be so clumsy?"

That way, she would secretly scratch her head and chuckle to herself, feeling happy that someone was paying attention to and caring about her.

How could you praise her like that?

What do you mean by a relationship that started out of pity? You didn't actually see Emma fall to the ground and look pitiful, and then you thought she was so pitiful and needed you, did you?

Mischievous kids like Emma Sakura are masters at pretending to fall.
