The shackles in his heart gradually loosened. Ruo Yemu stammered with his thin lips, but could not utter the answer that he seemed to have grasped but could not really capture.

Her forearms were raised nervously in front of her. Without saying a word, she just used all her strength to jump forward.

At the moment of falling, countless unspoken words turned into fragments.

Failure to apologize to Deng, Lixi, and Sushi would cause new troubles for Mom and Dad, and also cause trouble for Xiangzi's newly formed band, and Lu...

When she thought about her body and that of Ritsu Narose being found together, an indescribable shyness and panic suddenly enveloped Wakaba Mutsu, suppressing her incomprehensible "happiness" in the deepest part of her heart.

At this moment, she suddenly tried hard to divert her attention.

What else have you forgotten?

The short time seemed to stretch infinitely at this moment, and it was unclear whether this was because the girl who had been wandering around in the revolving lantern finally remembered that she still had something to worry about.

By the way, she hasn’t put the guitar at home into its case yet.

And the cucumbers in school...it seems like there's no one else who can take care of them except her.

"Guitar, and cucumber..."

The body completed the first half of the parabola before the consciousness - the mottled neon lights in the retina suddenly began to spin wildly, and the ear canal was filled with a chaotic roar, and it was impossible to tell whether it was the city night wind or the blood flowing back.

Instead of feeling at ease at the end of the story, and realizing that there was still something he was worried about, Ruo Yemu felt such a vivid sense of regret for the first time.

Having lost the strength to speak, the girl closed her eyes filled with regret, preparing to face her imperfect end.

However, when her body came into contact with something, an unfamiliar soft touch enveloped her from all sides, relieving her of the impact of falling from the sky.

His body was placed in the shape of a "big" character, and Ruo Yemu found that he seemed to be sunken into the surface of an object.

Ruo Yemu hurriedly struggled to sit up from the softness that was wrapped around him, and only then did he realize that he was sitting on a huge cushion.

At the same time, Ritsu Narose also sat cross-legged next to her.

"how do you feel?"

"I……"

Looking at the palm of his hand that was not stained at all, and touching his face and arms, Ruo Yemu finally realized the truth of the matter.

"I'm not dead..."

Feeling confused, she stared blankly at Ritsu Narose who was smiling at her.

"This is a trick." With a smug smile, Ritsu Narose said so.

He wasn't in a hurry to leave the air cushion he had prepared. He slowly explained, "If I had led Ruoye to the rooftop at the front of the building, then the place where we're jumping off now is at the back."

"This building isn't an ordinary office building—every few floors, a floor protrudes, forming a 'roof.' Before I brought Wakaba-san here, I had already placed the life-saving air cushions underneath where we were."

"Although the lack of lighting made it difficult to see the exact location, the height we jumped from was at most three or four stories high, which was within the safe use range of the life-saving air cushion that almost completely covered the roof."

"As for whether Ruoye-san will be injured, I have full confidence..."

Before he finished speaking, Ritsu Narose noticed that Wakaba Mu's expression gradually underwent some changes that he could not understand.

"fraud……"

“Eh, eh?”

Seeing the girl who had always acted like a doll suddenly scold him in a low voice, Ritsu Narose was forced to stop thinking.

With his hands on his knees, a feeling of irreconcilable grievance suddenly swept over Ruoye Mu's heart.

Those dark things I saw at the beginning...

It's just a life-saving air cushion?

62. Overlooking the scenery

Even with the life-saving air cushion as a buffer, the shock of jumping from a high place is not so easy to eliminate.

In addition, Wakaba Mutsu was already exhausted and had no strength left to walk to the station, so he was carried on Naruse Ritsu's back.

Perhaps she had finally found an opportunity to relax, the girl lay on his back and soon fell into a deep sleep.

However, before Ritsu Narose could express her regret for her reckless behavior tonight, Mortis, who had finally found an opportunity, suddenly logged in and vented her fear of jumping off a building from a first-person perspective in Wakaba Mu's body on Ritsu Narose.

Late at night, Ritsu Narose tried hard to find the street with the least pedestrians, so that she could send Mortis, who was playing as a substitute, back to her home as quickly as possible.

Behind him, Mortis was pressing down on his back using a non-standard naked choke position that he had learned from somewhere.

"Hey—if you move around any more, you might get recognized by passersby, okay?"

"I do not believe!"

"Believe it or not, if the news about 'Wakaba Mutsu was carried on the back of a random man passing by late at night' appeared the next day, wouldn't Wakaba-san be very distressed?"

"Gu..."

After hearing this, Mortis, who had been making a fuss all the way, finally calmed down.

Her attention was finally distracted from the hateful guy under her. When she realized her surroundings, she couldn't help but hugged Naruse Ritsu's neck and shouted, "What are you doing!?"

"On our way."

Standing on the wall, Ritsu Narose explained to her the concept of "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line" while searching for a "platform" to step on, as if he was playing a boring platform jumping game.

But for someone, the previous shadow once again came to mind.

Seeing that the crowd behind him had finally quieted down, Naruse Ritsu couldn't help but smile, as if his plan had been successfully implemented. At the same time, he quickened his pace again...

……

He jumped lightly from the wall, stepped on the soft grass in the yard, and put the girl behind him on the ground.

"Are you home, Wakaba-san?"

Noticing that the sleepy girl seemed to have not yet reacted, Ritsu Narose shook her shoulders and whispered a reminder.

Feeling the original warm and firm touch disappear, Ruoye Mu, who had just woken up from a light sleep, looked around in confusion.

His eyes swept across the familiar courtyard and doors and windows, finally stopping on Ritsu Narose beside him.

"Um..." Hesitantly raised his head and looked at Naruse Ritsu who was about to leave, "Can you come in and sit for a while?"

"It's too late now. Let's talk about visiting another day..."

"Actually, I'm a little scared."

As if unwilling to let Ritsu Narose leave like this, Wakaba Mutsu tightly grasped the hem of her skirt and whispered in a rather coy manner.

"Can you...stay with me for a while..."

As if saying these words had exhausted all her strength, she lowered her head and looked at the grass under her feet.

"This..." It didn't feel right, but when he thought about how his behavior had made Wakaba Mu feel uneasy, Mingse Ritsu couldn't just walk away. "I'll make a phone call first..."

……

Sitting on the bed in the room, Shoko Toyokawa, who had just finished taking a shower, did not continue to wipe her wet hair after hanging up the phone.

She noticed something strange.

According to Ritsu Narose's usual habit, she would have just sent a message on Line to tell herself, instead of calling her specifically like she did now.

He suddenly called me and said that "something needed to be dealt with"... Could it be that he was entangled with a troublesome girl again?

And seeing that he wanted to conceal the other person's identity, could it be that he knew that person?

Putting herself in other people's shoes, Toyokawa Shoko's originally sleepy eyes suddenly became clear.

So, who could it be?

Nagasaki Suyo?

If it were her, Ritsu Narose would have said it directly - after all, the relationship between them was not hidden from her now, so there was no reason to cover it up in this way.

Shiina Riki?

She didn't seem like the type of girl who would hang out late at night, so it was impossible for her to be with Ritsu Narose at this time.

Chihaya Aine?

Shoko Toyokawa suddenly remembered the pink-haired girl who lived across from Ritsu Naruse's house. After thinking for a moment, she decisively excluded her from the list of suspects.

As for people like Takamatsu Touma and Wakaba Mutsu...that's even more impossible.

In the end, the only people he was familiar with and who had some dealings with Naruse Ritsu seemed to be left with...

Hachiman Kairin?

Ritsu Narose knew her well, but he hadn't noticed anything from their communication before.

And...isn't this kind of irresponsible speculation without any evidence a bit too much?

Lying on the bed, Toyokawa Shoko stared blankly at the call logs on her phone...

……

It is now almost one o'clock in the morning, and the rich night seems to have compressed the entire world into a box the size of a bedroom.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Wakaba Mu finally returned to her bed. Mingse Ritsu had to sit beside her, like a door god, to dispel her uneasiness from the night.

After briefly reviewing the brief experience after the call ended, Ritsu Narose felt that his previous actions to provoke Wakaba Mu might have been a bit too much.

Otherwise, why would Ye Mu talk to herself through the bedroom door while changing clothes, fearing that he would disappear in the blink of an eye?

And even when taking a shower, it was almost the same - if it weren't for Ritsu Narose's insistence on objecting, he would probably stand at the bathroom door, listening to the sound of running water while occasionally responding to the muffled questions coming from inside the bathroom.

Without even drying his hair completely, Wakaba Mutsu finished his shower at the fastest speed in his life and hurried back to the bedroom in slippers.

Seeing that Ritsu Narusha was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief and staggered back to the bed.

It was probably because of the shock she got from jumping from the roof before, coupled with the fact that the amount of exercise she did that night was a bit too much for her. Ruo Yemu finally couldn't resist the erosion of sleepiness, and fell asleep unknowingly, and slept very soundly.

Even though Mortis was arguing with Ritsu Naruse on the way home and appeared to be in high spirits, the physical fatigue was absolutely irresistible.

Ritsu Narose gently released her hand that was holding the corner of his clothes, and then helped her put her arm back into the warm quilt.

At this time, he experienced for the first time what it was like to organize and store an exquisitely shaped doll.

After loosening the strands of hair that were tangled around her fingers, Ritsu Narose placed Wakaba Mu's head on the pillow as gently as possible, leaving a noticeable indentation.

Although the slightly changed breathing sound in the middle proved that she was vaguely awake, Ruo Yemu continued to sleep.

This is indeed good news for Ritsu Narose.

Take some more rest now so that you can have the strength to face the new day.

"Sweet dreams, Wakaba-san."

After saying good night to Wakaba Mutsuki by his bed, he walked to the bedroom window and hung himself upside down outside the window with increasingly skilled movements, while quietly closing the window.

Therefore, Ritsu Narose did not notice that Wakaba Mutsu, who was originally shrouded in sleepiness, opened his eyes again and stared blankly in the direction he left.

63. The truth that suddenly came to my mind

What should I do if I receive invitations from two people on the same day?

If one is rational, one should first judge the closeness of their relationship with one's own Qi and then make the corresponding decision.

But if the place they invite me to happens to be the same, I will most likely meet both of them. What should I do in this situation?

Reject one of them and accept the invitation of the other - when the three of them run into each other and stare at each other in confusion, all that will be left for them is probably endless embarrassment.

Therefore, Ritsu Narose made the most rational decision.

——He accepted the invitations from both Nagasaki Suyo and Wakaba Mutsu.

Nagasaki Suyo didn't want to disturb her busy mother and make her squeeze out the already scarce rest time for herself, so her invitation letter fell into the hands of Naruse Ritsu on this basis.
