Zongman: Beginning and Snow under the Rain Escape from Raccoon City

"He already has a wife..."

Her voice trembled, but she no longer denied it.

Ye Hai smiled, leaned down, and gently kissed her lips.

Hiratsuka Shizuka widened her eyes and gave him a symbolic push twice, but quickly gave in.

She closed her eyes and let herself sink into it.

The air gradually warms up.

The blanket slipped gently off, and Hiratsuka Shizuka's long, slender legs were somehow pulled up by Ye Hai and wrapped around his waist. The morning light was blocked, and the room fell silent again, with only the sound of their intertwined breaths remaining.

……

The afternoon sun shone into the Hiratsuka family's bathroom.

Hiratsuka Shizuka stood in front of the sink, turned on the tap, and the icy water splashed on her face, finally managing to wake herself up a little.

She looked up at herself in the mirror.

Her long hair was slightly disheveled, and her face still had a blush, but what truly embarrassed her was the string of red marks on the side of her neck.

"...Damn Ye Hai!"

She gritted her teeth and almost smashed the mirror with her fist.

She could blame last night's incident on alcohol, but this morning... she clearly gave her consent while she was sober.

She reached out to cover herself, but as soon as her fingertips touched it, she felt a tingling sensation rise from the bottom of her heart.

"hateful……"

Hiratsuka Shizuka bit her lip, wishing she could rush out right now and beat that guy up.

But when she pushed open the bedroom door, she saw Ye Hai leaning against the bed, resting with his eyes closed, looking at her peacefully.

That appearance, surprisingly, didn't ignite any anger in her heart; instead, it made her feel somewhat flustered.

"Ha... this is hopeless."

She chuckled to herself softly, then turned and went back to the bathroom with her clothes in her arms, determined to cover the marks completely with a turtleneck and a coat.

In the evening, Ye Hai accompanied her out the door.

As she reached the street corner, Hiratsuka Shizuka subconsciously tugged at the silk scarf around her neck, afraid that someone would notice something.

Ye Hai glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips, and leaned closer to whisper:

"Why are you covering it up so tightly, Xiaojing? That's my mark."

"Don't be so smug!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's cheeks instantly turned bright red, and she reached out to punch him, but her movements were a little weak.

Ye Hai took the opportunity to grab her hand:

"Don't worry, I'll take responsibility."

Hiratsuka Shizuka paused, shook off his hand, and gave a dismissive snort.

But the figure walking ahead looked somewhat flustered.

……

School office.

Kirisu Mafuyu sat down with a cup of coffee in her hand, her gaze sweeping casually over the seat opposite her.

　000 Hiratsuka Shizuka was already sitting there, holding a stack of documents in her hand, and pretending to be organizing them seriously.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't hide her dark circles and obvious guilty expression.

“…Xiao Jing.”

Kirisu Mafuyu gently stirred her coffee and began to speak slowly and deliberately.

"Do, do what?"

Hiratsuka Shizuka suddenly looked up, her voice somewhat shrill, her expression tense.

"nothing."

Kirisu Mafuyu's gaze lingered on her neck, seemingly casually.

The area was completely covered by turtlenecks and silk scarves, but this very act of concealment only made it more obvious.

"I just feel that you look... a bit overexerted today."

"puff--!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka nearly spat out her coffee, hurriedly covering her mouth with a panicked look in her eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about! I was just staying up all night grading papers! What do you know!"

Kirisu Mafuyu smiled, pursing her lips, and didn't press the matter further, instead adopting a nonchalant tone:

"Yeah, that's right. Staying up late, you know."

"But I think you could actually take the day off, since you were walking a little unsteadily today."

"I don't--!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka's cheeks flushed red as she slammed her hand on the table, gritting her teeth in anger.

But under the watchful eye of Kirisu Mafuyu's "I know, but I won't say" expression, she finally gave in.

"...Damn Ye Hai, it's all that guy's fault."

She muttered to herself.

Chapter 184 Shiina Mahiru in the Park

Kirisu Mafuyu has been having a really bad time lately.

It's really upsetting.

I thought that among my students, there would be at most a few who were good at some subjects but bad at others, and some who had learning difficulties and whose grades needed improvement.

Although it's also very difficult to handle.

But compared to the students of the neighboring teacher, Shizuka, who have family debts, are delinquents, and are antisocial, they seem much happier.

However, Kirisu Mafuyu noticed that her students seemed to be developing problems that were getting increasingly serious.

Especially that girl named Shiina Mahiru.

No, it's not that she's bad. On the contrary, Mahiru's performance is almost flawless.

She has excellent academic performance and consistently ranks among the top ten in her grade in every exam.

He is also outstanding in sports, consistently achieving perfect scores in physical fitness tests, and even maintaining a steady pace in long-distance running.

She also has excellent interpersonal relationships. I have never heard of her having any conflicts with other classmates. Her smile is always so gentle. She is polite and understanding.

Most importantly, she was also very beautiful and very popular at school.

If it were another teacher, they would probably say something like:

"This is a model student and deserves praise."

But Kirisu Mafuyu was different.

She has keen intuition.

Moreover, having stayed at this school long enough, I've seen many children who appear perfect on the surface but are actually riddled with problems behind the scenes.

There's an incongruous feeling of "too perfect" about Shiina Mahiru.

It's so perfect, like a meticulously crafted mirror, bright and shiny, yet it obscures the true reflection within.

—It just feels so fake.

Although Kirisu Mafuyu had some suspicions, she ultimately had no evidence and couldn't arbitrarily interfere in other people's private lives.

She planned to first go to the archives to check her student's family situation.

"Oh, Ms. Hiratsuka is all smiles today, should I...?"

Kirisu Mafuyu sighed with a hint of envy, but then shook her head.

Forget it, there's no rush.

……

evening.

It rained heavily.

Even though the sky shouldn't be dark, it became gloomy and dark due to the clouds in this kind of weather.

Ye Hai stood at the entrance of the convenience store and looked up at the sky with some displeasure.

Rainy days are really annoying.

Last night, he and Shizuka each drove a car to the Hiratsuka house.

When Hiratsuka Shizuka came to school this afternoon, she wasn't feeling well, so Ye Hai drove her there.

As a result, when school was over...

Hiratsuka Shizuka actually kicked him off the bus, citing the negative impact of students and teachers leaving the school together.

Please, that's his car!

But oh well, what can I do when Hiratsuka Shizuka was brutally attacked by him last night?

Ye Hai chose to be understanding of the shy Xiao Jing.

He casually opened the transparent umbrella he had just bought for 500 yen at 7-Eleven. These things are available at the entrance of almost every convenience store, and they sell particularly well on rainy days.

This has become an important revenue-generating project for convenience stores.

Ye Hai lifted his leg and walked home.

He looked no different from any other passerby, but a careful observer would notice that Ye Hai's shoes were completely dry.

The water splashing on the ground seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, unable to get close to Ye Hai's body at all.

Ye Hai doesn't actually need an umbrella to keep the raindrops from falling on his head.

But walking down the street like that seems too abnormal.

Ye Hai has no plans to reveal his extraordinary abilities too early.

So you should probably use an umbrella.

Although it's not very useful, at least it looks like a normal person.

Just as he was passing by a park.

Ye Hai's "pretty girl detection radar" suddenly twitched, and he turned to look into the park.

A petite but curvaceous girl with waist-length flaxen hair, dressed in a JK uniform, is sitting on a swing in the park.

The heavy rain soaked her completely, which gave her a unique kind of beauty.

That's right, other people use their telekinesis for fighting.

But Ye Hai used him to discover beautiful girls.

The raindrops pounded heavily on the iron swing frame in the park, making a cold, hard "thump-thump" sound.

Shiina Mahiru sat quietly on the swing, without an umbrella in her hand, seemingly unconcerned that the heavy rain was relentlessly pounding on her slender shoulders and knees.

Her long hair was soaked, falling along her cheeks and chin like a layer of cold gauze.

The white shirt of the school uniform clung tightly to her body, and the water stains outlined her clearly defined figure.
