I'm in Tokyo, caught in the clutches of the demon princess.

"I haven't heard this name in a long time."

The old man suddenly asked:

Have you found the answer you're looking for?

Tolya Salty looked up at the sun in the sky, then down at the boy in his arms, and smiled slightly: "Found it."

"If you intervene, you might be able to change this child's fate."

Torya Salti looked at the hunched old man.

"No need, he can do it himself."

"Yeah."

The old man murmured, and Torya Salty, carrying Feng Zejian, disappeared without a trace.

The old man looked at the rows of tombstones illuminated by the sun.

"Children, these are your descendants."

As he spoke, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Truly, the younger generation is formidable."

Torya Salty drove Kazesawa back to his apartment, car and all.

He originally intended to take some measures to cool down Kazesawa, but he sensed that Kana Kumagai had returned.

With her around, there's no need for me to do anything.

I still can't stay in this world for too long.

Chapter 465 Choosing cowardice is true death

Torya Salty watched as Feng Zejian disappeared from the room.

The door opened the next second.

Kana Kumagai said what she had been saying all these days.

"I am back."

Kana Kumagai didn't hear a response and panicked for a moment. She looked around and saw Kazema on the sofa, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Feng Zejian had left without saying goodbye; I was almost scared to death.

The heart that had just settled down was suddenly in its throat again.

When Kumagai Kana saw Kazesawa's face, it was bright red, and his clothes were soaking wet.

"Hey kid, what's wrong with you?"

As she spoke, she ran forward, pressed the back of her hand to her forehead, and instantly her brows furrowed.

"So hot."

Kana Kumagai panicked and started to fumble around.

Kana Kumagai slapped herself to calm herself down.

"Make a phone call, take off your clothes, wipe your body, yes, yes, make a phone call first."

Kana Kumagai picked up her phone and called Dr. Ikeda.

After explaining the situation, Kana Kumagai began to undress Kazesawa.

It was more like tearing than taking off; of course, Kana Kumagai only tore off her clothes, not Kazesawa's.

Finally, they even tore off their underwear.

Feng Zejian was carried to the bathroom, given a quick rinse with warm water, and then placed on the quilt, where his body was wiped with a towel.

Everything was almost done, and Dr. Ikeda arrived.

Ikeda immediately diagnosed the symptoms the moment he saw Kazesawa, and without saying a word, he quickly prepared the medicine and started the IV drip.

Kana Kumagai looked at Ikeda, her voice trembling.

"Is Feng Zejian alright?"

Ikeda sensed the fear in Kumagai Kana's heart and comforted her:

"It's alright, the kid just has a cold. He won't die even if I don't come."

Kana Kumagai clutched the bedsheet, tears dripping onto the back of her hand.

"He's all I have left in my world."

"Life is inherently a lonely journey; if someone is determined to leave, you can't hold them back."

Ikeda put his hands into his pockets.

"Some things are better said by me than by him."

"He can choose to die for you, but he won't choose to live on for you."

“Many people, including myself, wish him to be cowardly, but once he chooses to be cowardly, his true self dies.”

"Just remove the IV drip. I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Ikeda opened the bedroom door and left, while Kumagai Kana looked at the unconscious Kazesawa on the bed.

She choked back tears as she asked, "You brat, why did you come to save me?"

The next second, Kana Kumagai fell silent.

When she was tortured and her body was covered in wounds, and she was losing consciousness, all she could think of was Feng Zejian.

She felt that the brat who had barged into her world would definitely come to save her. She didn't know why she thought that way, but that's what she thought, and Feng Zejian did just that.

From the moment he appeared before her, Kana Kumagai understood what Kazesawa had chosen.

Kana Kumagai clutched her chest; she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Time and time again, what I want to protect always leaves me.

"Kana, what's wrong?"

Hearing the sound, Kana Kumagai looked up in disbelief.

All he saw was Feng Zejian smiling at him.

"Why did you wake up so suddenly? Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

"I felt that a little kitten with a bad temper and a lot of crying was thinking of me, so I opened my eyes to take a look."

Kana Kumagai, her brows furrowed in displeasure, said:

"You brat, who are you calling short-tempered and prone to crying?"

Feng Zejian's smile widened.

"So you admit that you miss my little kitten."

Kana Kumagai was so angry she laughed.

"What's wrong with you? Why did you go out in the rain?"

After a moment of silence, Kazema suddenly said, "Fujiwara Takeshi, he's dead. I saw it with my own eyes."

Kana Kumagai was speechless.

Even though she and Fujiwara Takeshi had long since drifted apart, Kumagai Kana was still heartbroken to hear of his death.

Of the eighty-seven people in the same batch, only he remained.

"Kana, do you think death is the end of everything?"

"I don't know, but I don't want you to die."

Feng Zejian looked up at the ceiling, a helpless smile on his face.

"Can you stay alive if you don't want to die?"

Kana Kumagai clenched her fists so tightly they covered the bedsheet.

At this moment, Kazema said slowly, "Kana, promise me one thing, okay?"

"Ah."

"I haven't even said anything yet, how come you agreed?"

Kana Kumagai looked at Kazesawa with deep affection, her pretty face still wet with tears and her eyes red.

"What do you think?"

Feng Zejian smiled happily.

"Seeing that I had conquered Kana, my vanity was satisfied once again."

Kana Kumagai couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Kazesawa.

"This time, I'll let you be smug for once."

"Thank you so much, Kana. By the way, you must live well without me."

Kana Kumagai nodded. "I promise you."

"Ideally, find a good person, start a family, have a lovely child, and then..."

Feng Zejian was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"I only promised you one thing, and that's all."

Feng Zejian smiled. "Alright, then let's settle on this."

"I'm sleepy, I'm going to bed, wanna go together?"

Kumagai Kana chuckled.

"Together my ass."

Despite saying that, Kana Kumagai still crawled into Kazesawa's quilt.

Looking at Kazesawa's sleeping face as he drifted off to sleep, Kana Kumagai felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.

She stopped thinking about tomorrow; she would leave tomorrow's problems to tomorrow. Today, she wanted to be the happiest person.

Standing guard by the wind and watching the IV drip slowly drain to the bottom, I removed the needle and threw it into the trash can.

Kana Kumagai, holding Kazesawa in her arms, drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face.

Kazema's cold persisted, and Kumagai Kana also took a temporary leave of absence.

The roles between the two began to reverse, with Kana Kumagai taking care of someone.

However, the clumsy and awkward Kana Kumagai wasn't very good at taking care of people, which led to some funny situations.

Enraged by Feng Zejian's teasing, she grabbed him by the collar, forcing him to submit to her tyranny.

There were also dishes and rice that had been prepared. Feng Zejian glanced at them and then made himself a bowl of instant noodles.

Then he was asked to make her a tub of tea as well.

This kind of care is worse than no care at all.

But Kana Kumagai insisted on taking care of him, and Kazesawa had no choice but to endure it.

But because it's Kana Kumagai, there's been a lot of fun these past few days.

Good times always pass too quickly. By the third day, Feng Zejian's fever had completely subsided.

When Kana Kumagai woke up and went out of her room, she saw Kazesawa cooking while wearing an apron.

"You're cooking so early?"

Feng Zejian pointed to the wall clock.

"It's already noon. Go wash your hands and then come to the table for lunch."

"By the way, you must wash yourself properly. You always have a habit of picking your butt when you sleep."

Kana Kumagai rolled her eyes at Kazesawa.

"Okay, just like an old woman."
