Comet Dragon, breaking into the gravity field

"If there's any internal damage—"

"My internal organs are so healthy that if I offer to donate them, I'll have tons of people asking me for help!"

"Let's go to the hospital and get a CT scan. It might be a terminal lucidity..."

"I want to go home and rest more than this!"

It was like a manzai performance on stage, with two people pulling each other in front of the bright lights of the Land Rover.

However, this situation did not last long.

Because Chihaya Aine and her mother also appeared.

Standing at the best viewing spot, Chihaya Aine witnessed the entire process of her father's car accident. When she hurriedly ran to the living room on the first floor, her mother was still complaining about why her husband had not returned home yet.

Not daring to say a word, Chihaya Aine, the "invisible perpetrator", opened the door stealthily without making any noise.

However, when she tiptoed into the dark yard and looked out to see what was going on, her mother's voice suddenly rang out faintly from behind her:

“What is Aine looking at?”

Her body trembled instinctively, and Chihaya Aine's black-framed glasses almost slipped off her nose.

Looking at her daughter who had sneaked out and was now silent, Mrs. Chihaya's expression gradually became strange.

Walking around to her daughter, Mrs. Chihaya and her daughter shared the same expression when she saw the scene before them:

Oo?

……

——Chihaya’s House·Second Floor——

Sitting cross-legged at the low table in the center of the room, Ritsu Narushe tried to ignore the suspicious noises coming from beneath the floor.

But no matter how much he pretended to be deaf and dumb, he could not stop the sounds that sounded like whipping, as well as the faint scolding and humming, from gradually spreading from the first floor to the second floor.

Is this your punishment for your husband, Mrs. Chihaya?

It’s quite a big deal.

"sorry!"

Chihaya Aine, who was sitting opposite Naruse Ritsu, lowered her head and said sincerely, "If it weren't for me..."

"I was the one who asked Chihaya-san to do this, so there's no need for you to blame yourself."

Ritsu Narose acted relaxed and even made the classic bear hand-spreading gesture.

"but--"

"In fact, I have encountered similar things many times before."

Hearing this, Chihaya Aine looked at him in confusion.

With his forearms propped up on the table and his chin supported by his crossed hands, Naruse Ritsu continued in a very deep tone:

"I've fallen from a tree while climbing, slipped and hit the ground while rock climbing, and flipped over while trying to avoid an oncoming bird while practicing my driving skills... There are countless such things."

"And through these countless trials and tribulations, my body is gradually becoming stronger."

"So, as someone who's been known as the 'King of Fall Resistance' since I was little, getting hit by a car is no problem at all."

After slightly embellishing his past experiences, Ritsu Narose calmly explained why he was safe and sound.

"Besides, Mr. Chihaya wasn't driving very fast, and he braked in time before the collision."

“So there’s no need to go to the hospital.”

Going to the hospital is impossible, never in this lifetime.

Although he looks like a human and his body structure is similar to that of humans, the blood in his body is fundamentally different from that of humans.

"…Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true, Chihaya-san."

Looking at the girl in front of him who was still a little uneasy, Naruse Snickers Ritsu said so.

22. As usual, I am on top

In Chihaya Aine's room, the combination of warm yellow lights and brown wooden boards gives people a sense of security, while the potted green plants and paintings on the wall add a lot of life.

Through the glass windows on the roof, you can see...

Well, there was nothing to see except pitch black - after all, it was a bit difficult to see an unpolluted starry sky in Tokyo.

The light green guitar was placed on a shelf near the corner, and it was obvious that its owner had been using it recently.

Taking his eyes away from the objects in the room, Ritsu Naruse looked at Chihaya Aine who was sitting opposite him in a pink home dress.

The scent of shower gel gradually emanated from her body, making Ritsu Narushe's nose slightly itchy. The girl's soft, white legs also appeared healthy and beautiful under the light, which made people look sideways.

Silently admiring his own discerning eye, Naruse Ritsu once again said, "Chihaya-san, are you still planning to invite Deng to form a band?"

"Yeah," Chihaya Aine nodded, and then said, "I still don't want to give up just like that."

As she spoke, she noticed something strange.

lamp?

I used to call her "Takamatsu-san", so why are we suddenly so close now?

Could it be the time when Dengchan escaped...

By the way, when did they meet? Could the "friend" that Naruse-kun mentioned earlier be Deng-chan?

Chihaya Aine's mood at this moment was not as calm as she had imagined, but rather a little depressed.

After thinking so much, maybe asking directly is a better option?

"How did Naruse-kun and Tou-chan meet?"

According to Chihaya Aine's impression, Takamatsu Touma, who behaves like a wild animal, is unlikely to take the initiative to make friends, let alone a character like Naruse Ritsu.

"I saw Deng reading my work, so I took the initiative to go over and say hello. After a few interactions, we naturally got to know each other."

Is this true? A work by Ritsu Naruse?

The words she had seen before flashed before her eyes like a barrage of words, and Chihaya Aine suddenly didn't know what to say.

Is it that Deng is more receptive, or is it that her preferences are somewhat special...

Wait, Lingyao Qishi is warm = pulling like a broth!

Chihaya Aine's eyes suddenly became sharp - a very bad guess gradually took shape in her mind.

"You won't... bring Dengjiang Qiling home..."

"What are you talking about?"

Ritsu Naruse was looking at her with a look that Chihaya Aine had never seen before, as if she was looking at a mentally retarded person.

"I met the lamp in the park."

"garden?"

Why is it a park again?

Could it be that a Pokémon named "Ritsu Naruse" would appear in that kind of place from time to time?

The story of "Ritsu Naruse and Ichinose" still floats in Chihaya Aine's memory, causing her to react to a certain keyword.

But a second problem also arises.

As if knowing what Chihaya Aine was thinking, Naruse Ritsu offered to leave for a while, and within a few minutes, he returned to the room with a book.

Seeing the exquisite cover, Chihaya Aine did not open it immediately, but took out her mobile phone to search for the name on it.

Soon, she found Ritsu Narose's Twitter account based on the title of the book.

Who said his profile picture is so obvious!

And no matter how you look at it, this photo looks like it was taken in his yard, right?

Looking up at the other person, Chihaya Aine said expressionlessly, "Is it fun to keep me in the dark, Naruse-kun?"

"You never asked me either." With his hands spread out, Ritsu Narose seemed particularly righteous.

“It’s really awful.”

"I don't deny this."

Even though Chihaya Aine was staring at her like that, Naruse Ritsu didn't feel uneasy at all.

He still looked carefree, with his hands on the floor, looking back at the guitar by the wall - and the easel placed next to it.

"Chihaya-san is he still good at painting?"

"Well, as for painting..."

Sometimes Ritsu Narose feels that Chihaya Aine is very easy to understand.

For example, the fact that she didn't respond immediately showed her guilty conscience. Seeing her slightly hesitant expression, Naruse Ritsu became even more certain of his suspicions.

"I see. It's on the same level as guitar."

"That's too much! I've been practicing guitar lately!"

Look at what he said, didn't he completely expose his level...

Being somewhat curious about Chihaya Aion's skills, and considering that he had never seen a live guitar player, Naruse Ritsu took the initiative to ask Chihaya Aion if she could play a song now.

Even "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is fine.

There is no doubt that such low demands are tantamount to provocation.

Chihaya Aine, the guitarist who firmly believed that she could live a second life, showed a determined look in her eyes and walked towards the corner without any hesitation.

Picking up the musician's weapon, 50% of Chihaya Aine's vision was occupied by the light green guitar in her hand, and the remaining 50% was filled by the ignorant visitor in the room.

She was wondering which piece of music to play, and every step she took in the room was controlled by habit, and it was this long-established instinct that made her unaware that a cushion had been moved.

The cushion that was originally located in the center of the table was placed by Ritsu Narose at the corner of the carpet. In this way, an ordinary and unintentional act created a simple but unexpectedly useful trap.

"Wow——"

The trap was triggered, and the person who was tripped waved his arms around like an out-of-control mechanical puppet, and the guitar flew out of his hand and flew slowly through the air.

If there is no external force to stop it, it will probably hit the table directly or even the corner of the table, and then fall to the ground with a "pop", meeting the tragic end of "pineapple pineapple".

Watching the instrument about to fly overhead, Ritsu Narushe felt like a cat watching a ball of yarn roll past. Before his mind could react, his body took action.

The Sky Comet Dragon's extraordinary eyesight allowed Ritsu Naruse to easily capture its trajectory.

His originally cross-legged sitting position suddenly changed, and he stretched out his arms like a goalkeeper scrambling for a goal. One hand blocked the pickguard, and the other gently supported the neck of the guitar. Just like that, Naruse Ritsu saved the guitar from a hard landing.

congratulations.

If he ignored the person who hit him in the chest with a headbutt.

It was impossible for Ritsu Narose to feel pain - after all, even the impact from the Land Rover could not cause him any harm.

But for another person, it might be a little different.

When Chihaya Aine raised her head dizzily, she still felt a faint pain on her forehead.

She adjusted her glasses and waited until she saw the scene in front of her clearly before she realized what had happened.

With his arms raised high and his hands holding the guitar, Ritsu Narose was lying on the ground in a rather awkward posture.

Seeing the girl lying on top of him, her face flushed as she stared at him, he had a thoughtful expression.

"According to convention, I should be on top at this time."

23. Grandmaster Fishing Trainer

[RiNG] In the cafe on the second floor, Ritsu Narose sat in a single seat in front of the counter.

He used a straw to stir the coffee cup on the table repeatedly. He supported his face with one hand, and the melancholy between his brows almost became tangible.

Occasionally, students who had finished school early would come here. When the young girls saw him, they would unconsciously lower their voices while communicating with their companions, for fear of disturbing this heart-pounding scene.

Immersed in doubts, Ritsu Narose had no idea that she was bringing unexpected customers to the cafe.
