life in the world

The passers-by whispered, laughed at the boy's conversation without a tutor, and looked at the boy holding the tattered doll as if he was looking at something dirty. She can still feel the embarrassment of that scene——

Not only the little boy who was despised by passers-by, but also himself who was stopped by the other party.

"'Who would want this kind of rubbish? If you want it, I'll just take one and give it to you tomorrow.' He was very happy to thank me when he heard such words, what a fool..."

You can't expect everyone to be as smart as you, can you?

Although Harutaki imagined what happened to the boy, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for him.

Why do you want to please a girl you met for the first time like this?

"In the afternoon of the second day, I took two new dolls with me as usual, and when I let them fight boredly on the lawn, the boy actually came over. I still remember that he seemed to see the owner's The puppy's eyes lit up like that, and he ran towards me with a silly smile."

It's rude to describe someone as a puppy, Nogami-san.

"I thought he was looking for me to beg for the new doll that he said he would give him, but he took out the cotton quilt and stuffed it back as if taking credit. The humanoid cat doll with several ugly scars on its body—that expression and demeanor , really like a dog who picks up a Frisbee and returns it to its owner...I thought it was funny, just threw more dolls in the trash and had fun watching him run back and forth to pick them up."

Twice, it has already been regarded as a puppy twice.

He couldn't help feeling sorry for that boy, what a poor boy, who met this bad woman, Izumi Nogami.

"For the sake of his cute appearance and behavior, I didn't drive him away, and I allowed him to sit aside and watch me play with dolls. I also spent the few gaps without tutoring in the same way. Every time he You have to take the broken dolls to the past, mend them into something uglier than the tattered ones, and then show it to me foolishly."

Hey, silly boy, you probably fell in love with this bad woman, right?Don't be fooled by her cute and beautiful appearance!

Already he was able to foresee the boy's dire future.

Even though Nogami Izumi may not have been as bad as her in middle school and high school when she was a child, judging from her own narration, it is definitely not a good thing.

"Until one summer vacation later, when he heard that I was going to celebrate my birthday, he excitedly took out all his pocket money to buy a newly released doll, and said he wanted me to share it with other children... Why do we play together? Happier, where is he a naive fool? Let a bunch of idiots play with his new doll, and the doll will never end well at all. But I don't agree, the guy is like an old woman, constantly I whispered in my ear, talking about the truth that only boring adults would say."

A good boy with a very upright outlook, Harutaki thought to himself.

"He didn't seem to understand his identity. He was obviously just a pet to play with like a puppy, but he kept barking at the owner... Ah, I remember that his name should be Xiaochun? In short, he is just like a puppy name, and I can't remember anything else."

"In order to let him get rid of that ridiculous idea, I directly asked those children to toss the doll casually, and in the end it turned out to be worse than before without accident. After I threw the doll into the trash can as before , but he didn't pick up the doll like a puppy again."

"I saw with my own eyes that I spent all my savings to carefully select the expensive doll, which was destroyed by the recipient and thrown into the trash can without cherishing it. On his face, which was always more beautiful than a girl, with a sunny smile, Finally showed a sad expression. Especially when I told him that these dolls are not worth mentioning, I can easily fill the whole room with them, and that he is not considered a friend but a pet at all, his wail The look of despair is simply too cute..."

"Can I hit you hard, Nogami-san?"

Hearing Izumi Nogami's bad taste, Harutaki Xingchuan couldn't bear it any longer, so he couldn't help interrupting with a sarcasm.

"Ah, you don't need Xingchuan to do it. At that time, the child was just as you thought, and it hurt me so much... I haven't seen him since then, and I became a person playing in the park again. It’s just that every time I think about it, if I can go back to the past with the body of a high school student, I will definitely throw him into Tokyo Bay. The guy who fights and kicks girls in the stomach is not good at all, is it? Now he must be a violent man who can't find a girlfriend and no one likes..."

That was the only time she was treated violently since she was a child—however, after Xingchuan Harutaki taught her tonight, it was counted as twice.

"..."

He really didn't know how to evaluate Nogami Izumi's abominable and pitiful childhood, so he had to keep silent.

"Hey, Xingchuan. After knowing this kind of thing, will you still like 'Izumi Nogami'? If you say you like it, I will specially allow you to be her boyfriend."

"Acquaintance is not just a matter of one side, right? Does Nogami-san like me?"

He won't be fooled again.

"Handsome and outstanding appearance, cunning and smart mind, maturity that calmly waits for everything, gentleness and bravery that can stand in front of girls in the face of bad... Speaking of which, you and Murai and that red-haired play video It was also spread to the forum, and now there are many girls who want to be scum by you, Xingchuan scumbag male classmate."

"Ordinary girls do have a high probability of liking me because of certain things, but you are Izumi Nogami. But you said it very well, this will be my profile in the future, thank you very much."

Hoshikawa Harutaki tried his best to change the subject.

"And then, good night."

"idiot……"

Maybe he was tired from talking, but after a while, the girl's steady breathing came from behind.And after he finished tasting the "bedtime story", he couldn't help feeling a little sleepy, so he took advantage of the time when Nogami Izumi fell asleep and arched his body inside, so that he could sleep more comfortably.

Chapter 50--Strange changes (seeking first order~)

"Wake up! Nogami-san!"

"Well……"

"Get up! It's time for school!"

"..."

"Does Sleeping Beauty need a prince's kiss to wake up?"

"...Where is the Toad Prince? Go, go."

As if chasing away small animals, Izumi Nogami pushed Hoshikawa Harutaki away from his side, and leaned sleepily on the head of the bed.

After a little relief, recalling her who communicated with her last night, I couldn't help but want to get under the covers——

What "specially allows you to be her boyfriend" is so embarrassing.

However, she just shrunk down and smelled a scent mixed with the fragrance of laundry detergent and a strange smell.It wasn't until this moment that she realized that she didn't wake up from the apartment where she lived alone, but just spent the night at the house of a boy of the same age, even in the same room and the same bed.

As for the quilt...

Yesterday, in order to prevent Chun Taki from doing bad things while she was sleeping, she wrapped herself tightly with a quilt, like a spring roll.So much so that until now, you only need to lower your head and sniff for a while, the smell that fills your nostrils is as if you are being embraced by the other party.

This can't be my fault, can it?

By the way, it's all Xingchuan's fault, that guy tricked her into rape——

Izumi Nogami thought so at first, but after seeing the uniforms neatly stacked on the chair beside the bed, he couldn't express his anger.

However, when she picked up the uniform and was about to change, the smell she inadvertently smelt made her startled again.

Minako said that some boys like the smell of girls, and even some perverted ones will buy the so-called "original flavor" from Twitter...

Did Xingchuan secretly smell it when he couldn't take it?

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people can hardly distinguish their own body odor, but because Nogami Izumi has more sensitive senses, and because she was wrapped in Hoshikawa Harutaki's quilt and slept all night, she can smell a little bit of body odor on the unwashed uniform. odor.

There is no so-called female body fragrance, and it is definitely not smelly. It is just a lavender scent mixed with a little softener she likes, and her own natural fragrance herbal shower gel.

really...

She suddenly realized that she was somewhat inexplicably suspicious.It seemed that no matter what he had to do with that guy Xingchuan, he would even be involved in his emotions because of his every move, his head was messed up, and he couldn't even think calmly in normal times.

"call--"

After taking a deep breath, she lightly pinched her own face, no longer being suspicious, but neatly buttoned up her shirt as usual, put on her uniform jacket, tightened the zipper of her skirt, and finally pulled the socks from her toes Once rolled up to the ankle and then lifted up, the top edge of the crew socks flicked on the girl's smooth calf, making a crisp sound.

At this time, there was a faint sense of hunger in her stomach, and she couldn't help but look forward to what kind of breakfast Xingchuan Harutaki would prepare.

?

"Quan, are you okay? Yesterday I sent a message and didn't call back. When I came to school in the morning, I found that all your things were left in the classroom..."

"It doesn't seem to be a problem, but Izumi, you seem a little angry? Did you encounter any trouble?"

As soon as Sanada Minako and Hinata Saei saw Izumi Nogami enter the classroom, they immediately gathered beside her seat, eagerly concerned about her condition.

Although Minako's social skills and emotional intelligence may be the highest in the three-person team, compared to Saei, she is a bit inferior in sincerity and attention to subtleties.

"It's okay, Minako and Saei, you don't have to worry too much. It's just that someone made trouble when school was over yesterday evening, and they didn't have time to pick up their things when they went out to solve it."

She didn't answer Saying's doubts, but muddled her past with ambiguous statements.

It's true that I was troubled and didn't have time to bring my things, but the reason for the boredom is...

Who told Xingchuan to ignore breakfast, only sliced ​​bread sandwiched with bacon, eggs, cheese, and a glass of milk?

Although usually her own breakfast is casually improvised due to troubles, but anyway, after she finished changing her clothes, she was always looking forward to that guy's breakfast until she sat at the dining table.

"Huh? Didn't bring anything? How did you come home yesterday, Quan?"

Ah, why is Saying always so clever in some strange places?

Nogami Izumi complained in his heart, while trying to perfunctory his friend's inadvertent questioning.

"Well... well... I actually have a spare key hidden by the door just in case."

"It's the same way as in the TV series. I didn't expect Quan to be on guard against someone who loses his keys carelessly."

Saei Hyuga folded her arms in front of her chest carelessly, imitating the appearance and tone of Izumi Nogami with a smile.

"I don't make those low-level mistakes."

"Saying, you bastard..."

She pretended to be annoyed and scratched her friend's armpits, and the two immediately twisted into a ball on the seat.

However, compared to Saei Hinata, who only occasionally discovers blind spots in a flash of inspiration, Sanada Minako is much more careful——

Before, I was full of resentment and resentment, but now I am able to make noise with Saying, have you recovered?

No, in Minako's view, Izumi Nogami is by no means an optimist like Saei. On the contrary, Izumi is even easy to get into a dead end, and will never give up if he sets his sights on a goal...

Moreover, the current spring is not only restored to its usual state.As a friend who has been with her like a shadow and played together for nearly six years, she always feels that some indescribable changes have taken place in the other party.

It's like... like it's more girly?

This kind of thought inexplicably popped up in her heart, which made Minako feel a little funny.

Hasn't Quan always been a girl?Could it be a boy?

But I have to admit that this inexplicable change did make her feel that the other party is getting along better, and she doesn't have the original feeling of depression when they are together.

"Izumi, do you want to have lunch together today?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Minako felt a little regretful.

Why did you relax yourself?

This kind of thing, which pot does not open and which pot is lifted, will only attract people's hatred, and she will definitely try to avoid it as much as possible.

"I, I just think you seem to be in a good mood, and it should be quite suitable for dinner..."

"...Let's forget it. I have too many debts to bear now, so try not to affect Minako and you guys."

Bringing up this matter suddenly, Nogami Izumi remembered what happened to Harutaki Xingchuan when he was implicated as his boyfriend yesterday evening——

Although those who find fault and bad guys may not hit girls, but what if the other party has some lust and can't control the impulse?

After being taught a series of lessons by Xingchuan Harutaki, she is now in a sensitive period, and she is a little nervous no matter what she faces.

However, since that bastard Xingchuan put him in such a situation, he should have a way to help him solve the trouble, right?

Able to hold back, retaliate and defeat her fatally like a famous swordsman's slash; able to face bad threats with ease, and lead her to escape from the siege; mature in thinking, funny in personality, humorous in speech, and good-looking, Even with such excellent cooking skills, if the grades are better...

After saying goodbye to Minako and Saei, she looked at Hoshikawa Harutaki who was discussing something with Tazaki, and she couldn't help thinking a little sullenly.

Guys who cheat like they are better than themselves are really annoying.

Chapter 51--The attitude of asking for help

As always, I used my English class and math class to learn Chinese, geography and history. As usual, I gathered next to Ren Murai's seat during recess, chatting with Miho Nishihara and Yoshin Koyama about hot topics on Twitter and Instagram...until During the lunch break, Harutaki Xingchuan, who was lying on the desk and looking out the window, felt that something was missing——

"Hey, come out with me."

Oh, it turned out that this classmate Nogami was missing.

He obviously enjoyed less than a week without being disturbed, and obviously only had a free time in the morning, but after Izumi Nogami was missing, he suddenly became quiet around him, and he always felt a little too ordinary.

This is a hypocritical guy.

He evaluated himself like this in his heart.

When being targeted by his classmate Nogami, he hoped for a peaceful and smooth campus life, but after solving the other party's troubles, he somewhat missed the time when he was entangled by cute girls.

"I'm not called 'Hi', Hoshikawa, Hoshikawa-san...or Nogami-san, I don't mind if you want to call me Harutaki."

"Stop being sentimental, idiot."

Izumi Nogami kicked his desk lightly, then gave him a glare, telling him to leave the classroom quickly.

At this time, there were still nearly half of the students in the classroom who hadn't left. Seeing Harutaki Hoshikawa being "bullied" by Nogami again, he couldn't help showing sympathy.

However, in most people's eyes, Nogami Izumi is now in a fit of anger, and anyone who helps Harutaki will be making himself angry.Even in today's campus, she has almost become a "reservoir dog" that everyone yells and beats and rejects, but a "reservoir dog" is also a "dog". What if she is accidentally bitten?

Although some people still want to help a group of Chun Taki out of kindness or sympathy in their hearts, they will soon be pulled away by their friends.

Seeing this situation when he walked out of the classroom, he probably could understand why the other party was held back by his friend.

The three first-year girls who were looking for trouble yesterday evening seemed to be because they suffered a disadvantage in Harutaki's hands with their boyfriend, but they didn't dare to openly trouble the second-year seniors during school when there were all students, so they posted in the anonymous forum There is another hot post like this——

[Ngm's classmate in the second grade had an affair with her boyfriend on the street, and after being bumped into, they clashed and fought. 】
