“This has…”

"Silly boy, the traffic light is red, hurry!" Miki Kujo clamped her legs around Toru Watanabe's waist.

The green light has started blinking.

"Hold on tight!" Toru Watanabe ran over quickly, carrying Miki Kujo on his back.

"Faster! Hahaha!" Kujo Miki's cheerful and pleasant laughter was left on the sidewalk.

After passing the traffic light, Toru Watanabe still did not stop and kept running with Miki Kujo on his back.

"You can stop now, idiot!"

The people around them looked at the two of them, thinking they were rushing to catch the last train.

Toru Watanabe thought of the oak tree at the school.

It is said that the larger the oak tree's crown, the wider its roots.

The huge oak tree that blocked out the sun was once just a nut that a squirrel could easily eat. Now it had to be completely uprooted, and the entire road from the Shenchuan school gate to the school building had to be dug up.

In the past, an oak seed loved Kujo Miki so much;

Now, a huge oak tree that blocks out the sun and the sky likes Kujo Miki so much, it likes Kujo Miki very much.

Chapter 353 It doesn’t matter if the direction is wrong

As November arrives, along with the cold wind blowing from the Northern Alps, it’s time for the annual school trip.

"You can use today's class meeting to discuss." At the podium, Koizumi Aona, wearing a teacher's uniform, talked about the relevant arrangements.

When wearing a skirt suit, you look smart and capable, and people dare not joke with you casually;

Wearing a yukata, on the night before the first snow in Hakodate, she was innocent and cute, shy like a little girl hiding in an adult's legs.

This is the teacher admired by everyone, and this is his woman - even though he knows it's a bad taste, Toru Watanabe still has this sense of superiority.

After the morning class meeting, everyone in the classroom was talking about where to go for this year's school trip.

"Meiji, is there any place you want to go?" Toru Watanabe sat backwards, with his hands folded on the back of the chair and his chin resting on his arms.

"Hokkaido."

"I just came back from Hokkaido."

"So I want to go." Kujo Miki said with a smile, "Especially Hakodate, I want to see the night view."

"Let's go eat roast lamb while we're coming down from the mountain." Qingye Rin took out a hardcover book from the drawer.

"After eating roast lamb, we still need to go to some garden to enjoy the night maple leaves." Kujo Miki continued.

"Xiangxue Garden." Qingye Rin opened the book.

"Yes, 'Xiangxue Garden'." Kujo Miki snapped her slender fingers.

“……” Toru Watanabe looked at the two people who were singing the same tune.

He picked up Kujo Miki's mechanical pencil and pressed it one by one, saying:

"It's the maple viewing season in Tokyo, but Hokkaido is already covered in snow. Where can we see the maple leaves? I'm afraid that Kosetsu-en Garden will only have bare branches left."

"Then we have to go to Hokkaido too." Kujo Miki smiled and teased Watanabe Toru.

"Let's go to Hakone." Watanabe Toru put down his pen and held her hand. "Take a hot spring bath and go boating on Lake Ashi, which is dyed red by maple leaves."

"Maple leaves can't dye Lake Ashi red." Kiyono Rin reminded.

After a brief pause, she continued, "However, in the cooler autumn, there are fewer clouds and visibility is high, which is a good time to see Mount Fuji."

"Mount Fuji!" Watanabe Tetsu clasped his hands together, "I like Mount Fuji. I like Mount Fuji the most. I love Mount Fuji very much."

"Isn't your favorite the Yangzhou fried rice from Takamatsu in Shikoku?" asked Qingno Rin in surprise.

This woman with a good memory is so bad.

"I like Yangzhou fried rice, which has nothing to do with Takamatsu City in Shikoku." After explaining, Watanabe Toru held Kujo Miki's right hand again, which was really adorable, "Let's go see Mount Fuji!"

"You can see Mount Fuji in Tokyo." Miki Kujo supported her head with her left hand and spoke in a casual tone.

"For example, 'Roppongi' and 'Meguro Station'." Doraemon said.

"You even know this?" Toru Watanabe looked at her in surprise.

"It's common sense."

This is not part of Toru Watanabe's common sense.

"Why don't you want to go to Hokkaido? Are you afraid of making those two people sad?" asked Miki Kujo.

"It has nothing to do with that." Watanabe Toru explained, "It's just that I just went to Hokkaido, and now it's a bit boring to go again."

"It depends on your performance." Kujo Miki was ambiguous, but she had already agreed in her heart.

The last class in the afternoon is English class.

"Class test, students in the front row, please pass the test papers to the back." Koizumi Aona handed the freshly printed test paper to the first student in each group.

The classroom was quiet, with only the rustling sound of pens running across test papers.

Aona Koizumi walked around and checked the students' answers.

When he walked to Toru Watanabe, he stopped and looked for a while.

"I LOVE YOU" written by Toru Watanabe.

A hint of doubt flashed across Koizumi Aona's elegant brows, and she couldn't help but bend down slightly.

She had already done the test, so there was no need to write this sentence.

"Koizumi, I LOVE YOU" Toru Watanabe wrote again.

Koizumi, the romanization of Koizumi.

Koizumi Aona pursed her lips, lowered her head and smiled, then pretended to be serious and tapped Watanabe Toru's desk with her fingers, asking him to answer the questions seriously, and then walked away happily.

After school, Watanabe Toru and the other two went to the Human Observation Department together.

The water had just been boiled and I hadn't even taken a sip of the hot tea when there was a knock on the door.

"Go forward." Qingye Rin said directly without putting down the teacup.

"Excuse me." Tamamo Yoshimi and Ikki Aoi walked in.

The purpose of the two people coming to the Human Observation Department was to ask what they had not done well this year - in the national competition in October, the wind orchestra only won the silver medal.

The third-year students, represented by Hayami Kaoru, quit the club in tears.

Tamamo Yoshimi successfully took the position of the head of the wind band, and Ikki Aoi also became the deputy head.

"Memorize the music and practice more. There is no other way." This was the advice given by Qingno Rin, exactly the same as when she personally coached the wind orchestra in her first year.

"The training time is obviously the same as last year." Ikki Aoi asked puzzledly.

"The same time doesn't mean the same effort." Tamamo Yoshimi said thoughtfully, "Last year, Seino-san checked every day, and we didn't dare to slack off. This year, there is no such pressure."

"Is there anything else?" Qingye Rin was not interested in the affairs of the wind orchestra and just wanted to calm down and read.

"It's okay, it's okay, sorry to bother you."

Before leaving, Tamamo Haomi glared at Watanabe Toru, but unfortunately Watanabe Toru couldn't understand her eyes at all, and didn't bother to guess or think about it.

After the club activities - reading, playing games - ended, Toru Watanabe did not take the bus to Jimbocho with Miki Kujo, but walked to Yotsuya Station with Rin Kiyono to catch the train.

"I'll bring the frog and the pig tomorrow," he said.

Qingye Rin nodded, and the two fell into silence.

Watanabe Toru had a lot to say to her, but he didn't know where to start.

Qingye Rin seemed to have something to say to him, but neither of them opened their mouths.

This is the first time that we have experienced such torment in our relationship, but this torment is like a stage-frightened writer who has to go on stage tomorrow to give a speech after winning the Nobel Prize in Literature.

As long as he is with Kiyono Rin, even if it is torture, it is a happy torture - Watanabe Toru really wants to know whether Kiyono Rin thinks so too.

The beech trees on both sides of the road have entered the leaf-shedding period.

As long as they can survive this winter, they will continue to sprout and grow leaves when the south wind blows next year.

The two stood behind the yellow line, waiting for the tram they were about to take.

Watanabe Toru was going to Shinano-machi, which was west of Yotsuya Station; Kiyono Rin was going to Kioi-machi, which was east of Yotsuya Station.

If he hadn't gone to Ochanomizu that night, he probably wouldn't have moved out and would have continued living in that rental house where the balcony was so small that no one could stand.

Through the window, you can see the lights of Kiyono Rin.

Occasionally when I go to a convenience store late at night, I’ll see her in casual clothes, maybe even wearing headphones.

"What music are you listening to recently?" asked Toru Watanabe.

"Why are you asking this suddenly?" Qingye Rin tilted her head in confusion.

"I remembered meeting you late at night before and you were wearing headphones, so I wanted to ask."

"You're thinking about that night when you went to my apartment with Hanada-senpai and saw my underwear, right?"

"I didn't think about it at first, but now that you mentioned it, I have to think about it." Toru Watanabe looked up and down at Kiyono Rin.

Black school uniform, white shirt, pleated skirt, slim figure, dignified temperament, there is a unique charm.

"What are you looking at?" Qingye Rin crossed her arms over her chest, her voice so cold that it made people suspect that this was the boarding point for the Snowpiercer.

"Ms. Kiyono, why are you so perfect?" Watanabe Toru was very puzzled.

"Do you think I'm Meiji? Can I fool you with nice words?" Qingye Lin smiled coldly, "You will only make me more angry."

"I'm telling the truth. The proportions of your body are so perfect that even in a group of people, everyone, including me, can tell you apart from others at first sight. You have a unique temperament."

"I like people who are at fault for their mistakes."

"You're so cute when you're angry and unhappy."

"You kept praising me for being cute. You used this trick at the National Wind Instrument Competition last year. I will never be fooled by you in the same way twice." Qingye Rin hugged her elbows and looked more calm.

"Kiyono-san, you're so funny."

"Are you mocking me?"

"It's interesting in a positive sense," said Toru Watanabe. "In fact, the reason why a boy falls in love with a girl is very simple. Eating face to face, watching the girl eat slowly and gracefully, he suddenly falls in love with her - such a thing definitely exists."

"Why do you like me? Interesting?"

"Your legs are long and round, without a single flaw."

Qing Ye Lin nodded in understanding: "He is such a superficial person."

"Your eyes are just the right size, clear and cold. Sometimes when you smile, they draw people in like a magnet."

"What metaphor? Don't dirty my eyes."

"Your hair always reminds me of the lead powder of a mechanical pencil, dark and shiny."

"Lead powder?" Qingye Rin asked, "I don't hate it, but I don't like it either."

"Your ten fingers are considered beautiful by everyone who sees them."

"Are you going to praise me from head to toe?"

"Your voice is like the sound of nature sent down from heaven, ethereal and pure. Even if you scold me, I feel comfortable in my heart."

"Ah."

"She has a slim figure, beautiful facial features, and her clothes are simple yet classy."

"Thank you." Qingye Rin said sarcastically.

"Even the word 'thank you' sounded so nice."

"..." Qing Ye Lin finally gave up, put his hand on his forehead, and said as if he couldn't do anything to him, "How obsessed are you with me?"

"If I had ice cream in my hand, I would smear it on my face."

"Your metaphors are getting weirder lately."

"So many compliments in one breath, I can't wrap my head around it." Watanabe Toru laughed.
