I have bound two systems.

"Mom, stop making trouble. Just tell me what you mean."

"Hey... kid, should I say that you are too innocent and kindhearted, or should I say that you have no defense at all..."

Sayuri Sawamura sighed, and then said,

"About your other friend, it's Shiyu."

"!"

Eriri couldn't help but be shocked. When her mother said Kasumigaoka Utaha's name, her heart felt like it was falling from the top of a bungee jumping machine, and the frequency of its beating instantly reached more than two hundred beats per second.

"So...what happened to that guy?"

"Oh~"

Sayuri Sawamura stared at Eriri's expression and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Eri, you don't look as clueless as mom thinks you are. Did you notice something?"

"Mom, just tell me what you mean!"

"Before, Shiyu played a recording to me behind your back, and your voice came out of it..."

Sayuri's words guided Eriri to recall her memories of the previous time.

At that time, the two of them had just noticed the whereabouts of Chisato Suzumiya and had not yet reached a consensus, so they were secretly using various means against each other, trying to create obstacles for each other.

The method used by Kasumigaoka Utaha was to secretly record what she said and then go to Sayuri Sawamura to tell her the truth.

If I remember correctly, there was a very ambiguous sentence in the words that the guy said to me at that time - school uniforms, sailor uniforms, bunny girls, professional suits, if I want to make up my mind, although I am a little shy, I can try these...

"…At that time, when I heard you say such a thing, Eriri, my mind went blank. In addition, Shiyu also told me that this was accidentally recorded after she talked about the contract remuneration with the library editor, so I didn't think too much about it and went straight to talk to you.

Thinking about it now, the person you said that to should be Qianli, right? And the reason why Shiyu cut off the beginning and the end of the video and played it to me, her mother, to mislead my thinking, seems to be self-evident, isn't it? "

Sayuri Sawamura touched Eriri's head, who had fallen into a daze.

"Shiyu has a crush on Qianli and seems to want to replace you. You must be on guard. After all, that child is really excellent and pretty enough. No matter what happens between you in the future, you can always come to your mother for help. Your mother will always stand by you."

Chapter 36 The Day She Left

July 28th.

This is the first day of summer vacation, and it is also the starting moment for Touma and Sa to leave their campus life and officially go to a foreign country to pick up their dreams again and pursue their steps.

Obviously, we have been prepared for this a long time ago, but when this moment really comes, we still feel sad and reluctant.

This is true for both Chisato Suzumiya and Kazusa Touma.

In the room on the second floor of Touma's house.

The noise in the room gradually died down, after a moment of tenderness.

Chisato Suzumiya was wearing shorts and was shirtless as she was packing clothes for Touma and Sa.

As for Touma Hesa, she was lying quietly on the bed, covering her graceful body with a thin blanket, her bright eyes watching his movements motionlessly.

In fact, the packing work should have been done last night, but Kazusa, who knew they would be separated soon, ignored the ban on teenagers and drank her mother's treasured red wine. After returning to the room, she was so enthusiastic that she was crazy. For the whole night, Suzumiya Chisato was entangled with her and had no time to think about other things, so he could only focus on her.

The result was that the two of them kept entangled on and off from around ten o'clock in the evening until two or three in the morning, and they just couldn't get enough of it.

This also made Touma Yoko, who had returned home yesterday morning to prepare to go to Vienna with her daughter, open the door of her room late at night, muttering to herself, "These two people are too excited," as she walked down the stairs and went to the guest room on the first floor to rest.

The walls of Touma's house are well soundproofed, but no matter how good they are, they can't stop such intense sounds from coming through the walls and doors.

Listening to her daughter's powerful and devoted voice, Touma Yoko realized that if she didn't change rooms, she would not be able to rest well that night.

"Okay, that's fine. Miss Yoko said that she will buy new clothes when we get to Vienna. These should be enough."

Chisato Suzumiya pulled her suitcase and sat down on the bed.

"kindness……"

Touma Hesa ​​responded lightly. She stared at Suzumiya Chisato's back, which was covered with scratches. After a night, it had turned dark red, messy and shocking. The longest one even went directly from the shoulder to the waist, which also showed from the side how much she was involved last night.

She stood up with a guilty conscience, and the thin blanket slipped off her body. The next moment, she stretched out her hands and hugged Chisato Suzumiya from behind, holding him in her warm embrace.

"I'm sorry...it hurts..."

Suzumiya Chisato took her hands and shook her head.

"Nothing, but we have to go downstairs. It's almost ten o'clock, and Miss Yoko has come up to urge us."

"kindness……"

Before nine o'clock, Touma Yoko had already knocked on the door, but at that time the two of them were in a state of cuddling with each other and had no extra mood to pay attention.

Considering that the boarding time is 2pm, and I have to wash, eat, and take a taxi to the airport during this time, I don’t have much time, so I really need to speed up.

When the two of them came down from upstairs arm in arm, they were teased by Touma Yoko who was watching TV in the living room.

"Actually, there's still plenty of time. You can be intimate for a while longer."

Touma Kazusa silently mouthed "boring old woman" to her mother, then turned around and walked into the bathroom without saying a word.

She had a lot of complaints about her mother because she hoped to postpone her trip to Vienna for two more days because she wanted to spend more time with Chisato Suzumiya.

For this, she even resorted to a coquettish and cute offensive which was not in line with her character. Then Touma Yoko pinched her cheek with a smile on her face, but her response was an inhuman rejection. She then booked a flight to Vienna in front of her.

This grudge has been formed, and I guess Touma and Sa will be unhappy about it for several days.

As for Chisato Suzumiya, she did not follow her into the bathroom.

He put down the suitcase in his hand and sat down next to Touma Yoko.

"Ms. Yoko will probably stay with Kazusa for a while from now on."

"Well, after all, I have already announced it to the public. Touma Yoko will be taking a break for a while."

"I threw myself into work non-stop after I recovered from my illness. This was probably preparation for this moment."

"Well, Qianli-kun, you are still as sharp as ever. You have noticed it."

Touma Yoko took the teapot from the coffee table and poured herself a cup.

Ever since she came back from a near-life crisis, she has gradually started to intentionally control her alcohol intake.

"Over the years, I have always lived for myself, simply and self-righteously thinking that as long as I can provide Hesha with a good material foundation, she will be able to live a happy life. But in the end, I found that it is not the case at all. Compared with me, a materialistic mother, Hesha is a more emotional child. What she needs is simpler, that is, companionship.

I have already rented a house for my daughter and me in Vienna. I will probably stay by her side for the next six months to make up for my past debt to her. It can also be considered as self-satisfaction..."

"Self-satisfaction?"

"When you become a father, Qianli-kun, you will understand this feeling, the affection that parents have for their children."

Dong Ma Yoko smiled slightly, her eyes showing extremely gentle emotions.

"Just don't be jealous about this."

"How could that be? I can't thank you enough for having Miss Yoko by my side in a foreign country."

Suzumiya Chisato smiled and shook her head.

Dong Ma Youzi got the answer she expected and laughed happily. Then she seemed to suddenly think of something and her expression changed.

"By the way, what are you going to do about the question I asked you before, so that Kazusa can devote herself to the piano better and more wholeheartedly?"

"What does Miss Yoko want me to do?"

Suzumiya Chisato asked back.

"I once thought that before Kazusa officially graduated from that teacher, I hoped you wouldn't go to visit her. Nowadays, technology is so advanced that a video call once in a while is enough. But, after hearing how intensely you two moved last night..."

Touma Yoko paused here with a malicious look on her face, her eyes slightly curved and narrowed into slits.

Suzumiya Chisato's face turned red, he coughed dryly and lowered his head.

"...After hearing the noise you guys made, I feel that not letting you meet for three years is indeed a bit too inhumane. If Kazusa knew that I made such a decision, she might just go on strike. So, considering all the above considerations, I think that the frequency of you meeting once a year should be just right."

Having said that, before Suzumiya Chisato could respond, she quietly moved closer to Suzumiya Chisato and said in a low and mysterious voice,

"This should be a good thing for you, Qianli-kun. After all, if Kazusa is not around, you should be able to spare some time to deal with the affairs of other girls around you."

"..."

Although what Touma Yoko said was true, considering that she was Kazusa's mother, Suzumiya Chisato really didn't know how to respond at this moment.

Fortunately, Touma and Sa came to the living room at this moment and asked him to go wash up.

Suzumiya Chisato felt as if she had been pardoned and quickly got up and fled.

Touma Yoko looked at his back as he left and smiled happily.

Touma Kazusa looked back at Suzumiya Chisato, then turned back and asked her in confusion, but she just gave a mysterious answer like "Secret~".

----

A little after 1:00 p.m., Tokyo International Airport.

Finally, the moment has arrived.

On the train heading here, Touma Kazusa was still reluctant to let go and kept holding onto Suzumiya Chisato's hand, completely ignoring the strange looks from other passengers in the car.

But in the short period of time before boarding, she seemed to be suddenly relieved and behaved very calmly, not so reluctant anymore.

But Suzumiya Chisato knew that it was all a false image, because on her face that was trying to be calm, her big eyes were shaking from time to time, the crystal clearness inside was obvious, and her small nose was also twitching, it was obvious that she might cry at any time.

In Chisato Suzumiya's impression, Touma Kazusa is a girl who does her own thing and can be called a cool girl from any perspective.

And now, just because she was about to say goodbye to me, she had this expression like a little girl...

Suzumiya Chisato gripped her hand a little tighter. His original mentality was quite open-minded, thinking that although the two of them were temporarily separated, they would meet again sooner or later, so his mentality could be described as peaceful.

But under the influence of Hesha's expression, he could no longer control his reluctance to leave, and as the boarding time approached, such emotions tended to continue to rise.

"Really... If you two were to do this, wouldn't it make me look like a villain? Obviously, these were all your own choices..."

Touma Yoko shook her head slightly and sighed.

"President, I think it would be better if we give them some space to be alone at this time."

Personal assistant Ms. Kudo Miyoko also came to the airport to see him off.

Because the president, Touma Yoko, has temporarily stopped all activities and is taking a long vacation, there is no need for Miss Midori to continue to stay with her. Instead, she should stay in Neon to handle the affairs of Touma Yoko's Neon Company.

By the way, under the instructions of the president, he assisted Chisato Suzumiya in setting up all aspects of her own company.

In other words, Chisato Suzumiya will have to deal with her for a long time in the future.

Touma Yoko shrugged, agreed with Kudo Midori's statement, stood up and followed her away, sitting a little further away, leaving the young couple with their last few moments alone.

"Thousands of miles..."

"kindness."

"We won't be able to see each other for a long time... Just to make me feel at ease, I hope you can promise me a few things."

Touma Kazusa made an awkward speech with an extremely serious attitude.

Looking at her like this, Suzumiya Chisato stood up, walked to her, knelt on one knee, nodded, and pretended to listen sincerely.

Noticing the gazes from everyone around her, especially from her mother and Miss Miyoko who were both covering their mouths, Touma Kazusa blushed and pursed her lips, but she still spoke according to her own thoughts.

"Don't forget me."

"How could I forget?"

"Stop flirting with girls."

"it is good."

"You are not allowed to be intimate with girls other than me."

"Forehead……"

This one, no matter how you look at it, is indeed a bit too much to ask.

Touma Kazusa probably knew that this request was somewhat willful, and after a moment of silence she whispered "forget it", then leaned forward and hugged Suzumiya Chisato tightly.

The next moment, Suzumiya Chisato felt warm and wet on her shoulder.

When she calmed down a little, Suzumiya Chisato held her shoulders and asked her to look into his eyes.

"I will probably never be able to leave Hesha for the rest of my life. It's a bit embarrassing to say this... I had already had countless fantasies in my mind when I secretly pursued Hesha from the beginning. I fantasized about every detail of Hesha's body after she took off her clothes, every aspect of our life together, and the warm scene of us starting a family and raising a baby together...

Compared to Kazusa, I am more afraid that you will leave me, so, although it is a little sudden, I still want to make an insurance at this time, as a promise, related to the future I once fantasized about..."
