In the anime series, Goto Ichiri is actually my childhood sweetheart?

She was as beautiful as the models Goto Ichiri saw on TV.

Although it is beautiful in art, the negative impact it had on Goto Ichiri is immeasurable.

"Is this the shameful thing you have to do when you're in love?"

Goto Ichiri rolled around on the bed with her face covered. She tried to imagine Takahashi Kaede doing this to her... No, she couldn't imagine it at all. Takahashi Kaede was too serious. If he did this kind of thing, she would suspect that someone else had changed.

After a day of being teased, on the way home from school, the male protagonist controlled by Goto Ichiri rescued a bullied brown-haired girl.

A bunch of laughing boys were passing her schoolbag around like a ball, and the girl with brown hair was like a little duck chasing her mother, following the bag wherever it went, shouting in despair.

"Give it back to me, give it back to me."

Save/Don’t save.

If this were reality, Goto Ichiri might ask Takahashi Kaede for help, but this is a game, she doesn't have to put in any effort for her choice. Whether she can open the girl's line depends entirely on her thoughts.

Goto Ichiri decisively pressed the rescue button.

The protagonist rushed over, snatched the schoolbag and handed it to the brown-haired girl. Then he was outnumbered and beaten up by the gang of thugs. Finally, he escaped with the help of passers-by.

The girl with brown hair didn't leave after getting the schoolbag. She was the one who found the passerby. Afterwards, the two of them were in the park, and the girl with brown hair disinfected the protagonist's wound.

"If I hadn't met Xiao Feng at that time, would I have experienced this as well?"

Watching the CG of the brown-haired girl carefully applying medicine to herself, Goto Ichiri felt like he was looking in a mirror. His condition was much worse than that girl's. At least she could be honest with the people who helped her. If it were him, he would probably not even be able to say a word.

With mixed feelings, Goto Ichiri continued to advance the game, but the plot soon went beyond her expectations.

With the thought of "How weird, let me take another look", she hardly developed any plot with the girl next door in school, but developed a lot of plot with her senior schoolmate.

She had never taken the initiative to contact the brown-haired girl with whom she had exchanged contact information, and she had never returned any news from her, as if she had disappeared.

Regarding her senior, she learned that she had been depressed for a while in junior high school due to school bullying, but finally got out of it with her help.

And through getting along with the protagonist, the gratitude at that time has gradually sublimated into the love between the boy and girl.

Later, when the protagonist fell into despair because of the failure of his dream, the senior student took the initiative to hug the protagonist, and the two embraced and kissed each other under the moonlight.

Goto Ichiri was about to cry, but what she didn't expect was that the brown-haired girl was crying with her.

The perspective changes, and a lonely girl sits on the bed, looking at the bright white moon outside the window, listening to the song she longs for but cannot get, with two lines of tears on her face.

It turned out that from the day she met the male protagonist, she fell deeply in love with him and regarded him as her hero from the bottom of her heart.

The ownerless love bento in the protagonist's closet, the brown-haired girl who kept appearing in the background when he was dating the senior, and the one who helped the protagonist's dream turn around in the end.

But because she was timid and afraid of being rejected, she never took the initiative to contact the male protagonist, and to the male protagonist, she was just a passer-by in his life. The two were like two parallel lines, their respective stories extended infinitely, but they never intersected.

At the end of the story, Goto Ichiri had a senior ending. Looking at the clock, it was already very late.

She knew that if the lights in the room were not turned off, her mother would come over and let her go to sleep.

So she turned off the computer, lay on the bed, and covered herself with the quilt.

All night long, her mind was filled with the brown-haired girl's final cry.

Chapter 15 Falling

"Kaede, why do you always call me Goto instead of Ichiri? Eriri calls me Ichiri anyway."

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden? Are you trying to distract me?"

"No, look, Eriri already calls me Ichiri. We've known each other for such a long time, but you still only call me by my last name..."

Goto Ichiri pointed with two fingers, feeling a little aggrieved.

"Do you want me to call you Yili?"

"miss you!"

Goto Ichiri nodded. Although Eriri beside him watched the interaction between the two with an expressionless face, her expression of joy was already distorted and could not be controlled.

The galgame I played with Goto Ichiri yesterday was indeed effective.

Humph, it’s worthy of being a game that I carefully selected.

"So... one mile?"

Goto Ichiri was happy but a little shy. He took off his hat and covered Takahashi Kaede's head with it, and rubbed his face hard.

"Yili, stop. If you can't stand me yelling at you, don't make such requests. Really..."

With her hair messed up, Takahashi Kaede pressed down Goto Ichiri's reckless hand.

"Eri, I have something to ask you. Can we go outside and talk about it?"

Eriri thought she would see more interactions, but she didn't expect Goto Ichiri to suddenly change the subject to her.

"Of course...

Not knowing what Goto Ichiri wanted to do, Eriri agreed first and then took Goto Ichiri out.

Takahashi Kaede suspected that what Goto Ichiri didn't want to say just now was related to Eriri, but on second thought, it was a good thing that Goto Ichiri could make friends, and the target was Eriri, a high-quality friend.

I hope I can learn something from Eriri and not get that excited attitude when it comes to staying at home.

The rest of the morning classes were physical education. Physical education classes in Japan are very capitalist, and you have to change into sportswear in the locker room before class.

Takahashi Feng hated locker rooms both in his past life and this life. He felt that such a place where one could legally run naked was too shocking to the eyes. Besides, he was thin-skinned to begin with, and asking him to take off his clothes in public was simply torture.

After finding a spot in a corner to change his clothes, he heard a commotion nearby.

"What is this? It's so powerful! So strong!"

"Honda-san, how did you train like that?!"

Gao Qiaofeng was a little curious and looked over there.

It was his club member, Daigo Honda. When I saw him in the classroom, I felt that he was as strong as a wild animal. When he took off his clothes in the locker room, he made me feel quite oppressive.

"President!"

Honda Daiya saw Takahashi Kaede changed his clothes and pushed through the crowd and walked towards him.

Such a big creature was walking towards him that Gao Qiaofeng almost tensed up.

"We're going to be divided into groups in the physical education class later. How about I form a group with you, the president?"

"Let's talk about it later. Let's go to the stadium first."

Considering that Goto Ichiri might not be able to find anyone to form a team, Takahashi Kaede rejected Honda Daigo's kind invitation.

Honda Daigo was a simple and honest person and was not angry. He followed Takahashi Kaede to the gymnasium.

The first class for freshmen was held inside the gymnasium, which was filled with equipment. Outside the stadium was the track and field field, with a 400-meter plastic track that looked tiring.

"gather!"

A sharp whistle and the physical education teacher's powerful shout immediately gathered the students who were originally scattered around touching and examining the equipment.

"Boys in front, girls in the back, everyone stand in order."

After lining up, the teacher paused and then spoke.

"When I say dismiss, everyone should find a partner, in groups of two. I've seen the number of people in your class, it's an odd number. The last person who hasn't found a partner will be in the same group with me. Did you understand?"

"Listen clearly!"

"Disband."

Everyone immediately started looking for their own friends. Many people wanted to be in a group with Honda and Takahashi Kaede. They were probably the two most popular boys in the class.

The girls gathered around Eriri, and some boys were even eager to try and form a group with her.

Takahashi Feng rejected other people's invitations, stood on tiptoe and looked around, trying to find any trace of Goto Ichiri.

Sure enough, at the outermost edge of the girls, Goto Ichiri was standing there stupidly.

Eriri wanted to look for Goto Ichiri, but she was surrounded by a group of people, so she had to give up.

Noticing someone was looking at him, Goto Ichiri looked up and saw it was Takahashi Kaede.

"Can boys and girls team up?"

"Of course you can if the teacher didn't say so. And even if the teacher said that boys and girls can't be in the same team, are you just standing there like an idiot?"

Takahashi Kaede was a little anxious about Goto Ichiri's concerns, so he took Goto Ichiri's hand and walked aside. Everyone also finished forming groups one after another.

In the end, only Aki Tomoya was left, standing there alone. Among the people he knew, Takahashi Kaede and Goto Ichiri were in the same group, and Eriri was a girl, so he couldn't get in at all.

"Okay, just join me in the group!"

Putting his arm around Tomoya Aki's shoulders, the physical education teacher led everyone to the playground.

"Running is the most important thing for students to exercise their physical fitness. For millions of years, humans have evolved to the present day relying on their excellent running ability. Therefore, the first lesson of our physical education is running!"

The students lamented that they had thought there would be some fun activities after being divided into groups, but what they ended up with was running.

The teacher doesn't ask for much. We just need to run one lap and everyone runs together. However, students in the same group must take care of each other. There shouldn't be a situation where one is too far ahead and the other is too far behind.

With a whistle, everyone started running.

Takahashi Kaede followed Goto Ichiri steadily. Goto Ichiri couldn't run fast, so there was no need for him to rush to the front.

"what!"

Just as the groups were turning and intersecting, Goto Ichiri suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.

A boy who was running forward turned back, said sorry, and continued running forward without caring about Goto's situation.

Gao Qiaofeng recognized that face; it was the annoying boy sitting in front of him.

There was no time to worry about whether he did it on purpose or not. Takahashi Kaede stopped and observed Goto Ichiri's situation.

She tripped and fell, and as she fell forward she supported herself on the ground with her hands, which absorbed most of the impact, but she still scraped her right knee.

"Yili, are you okay?"

The pain made Goto Ichiri cry, but when she heard Takahashi Kaede's concerned question, she shook her head to indicate that she was fine.

"Don't be so stubborn, I'll take you to the infirmary right away."

The teacher also realized that something was wrong and rushed over.

"Teacher, where is the infirmary?"

"Is it okay for you to take her alone?"

"no problem."

Seeing Takahashi Feng's calm look, the teacher showed him the way.

Takahashi Kaede nimbly carried Goto Ichiri on his back and rushed to the infirmary.

Chapter 16: The Prototype of a House

"Xiao Feng, I'm sorry..."

"Why are you apologizing all of a sudden?"

"I'm so clumsy that I have to trouble you every time..."

"Your clumsiness never bothers me. On the contrary, it's the words 'sorry to bother you' every time that are the biggest trouble."

Takahashi Kaede jumped hard and lifted Goto Ichiri up.

Goto Ichiri hugged Takahashi Kaede's neck, the two little heads snuggled together, and they could even hear each other's heartbeats.

The teacher in the infirmary was a gentle older sister. She gently wiped the dust off Goto Ichiri's wound and finally applied some iodine.

"It's not a good look to have wounds on such fair skin. How could you be so careless to fall down during gym class, and fall so hard."

"Someone tripped accidentally, but luckily no bones were broken."

"Well, be careful. Don't get too close to others when running. Protecting yourself should be put before exercising your body. Take good care of this girl first. I'm going to go out."

"Okay, thank you teacher."

With the sound of the door closing gently, only Takahashi Kaede and Goto Ichiri were left in the infirmary.

"Did that boy mess with you on purpose?"

Goto Ichiri shook his head.
