I save a pathological girl with a twisted love story.

Just walking side by side caused a great sensation.

Many girls stared in disbelief at the scene, while the boys groaned in despair.

—Damn it, our class monitor is in love!

I can't believe it!

The girls were all curious, but since Natsumi and Kirishima were clearly on a date, they just whispered among themselves and didn't go up to disturb them.

However, it turns out that some of the students came from seaside towns.

They looked at Natsumi Kirishima strangely, then at Kirishima Chiho.

They couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement.

—Isn't Natsugiri Kai and Asahi Aoi a couple? Otherwise, she wouldn't have made Risa drop out of school.

As she walked down the slope, Kirishima Chiho looked around.

"This is the first time I've ever looked closely at the road home from school."

As she spoke, she looked at the road surface and said, "So this is what it feels like to walk on the road."

The girl was quite curious and kept stepping on the things.

Xia Wuzhao was somewhat dazed because another girl had said something similar to him.

It was spring then, but now it's almost midsummer.

It was by the sea then, but now it's in the mountains.

The girl was walking along the road, but after only a hundred meters or so, she felt a little tired.

The hard loafers made her soft soles a little red and a little sore.

The girl could only walk for a short while before she could no longer maintain that ladylike gait; instead, she walked unsteadily like a duck.

Xia Wuzhao looked at her, and for no reason felt a little soft-hearted.

"It shouldn't exist, but it still does."

"That bond still entangles me."

Looking at the emerald green leaves, Xia Wuzhao felt as if she were slowly walking into a spider's nest, a place full of threads called bonds that tightly bound people and solidified them into corpses.

That kind of future is truly a terrifying future.

He asked softly, "Does it hurt a lot?"

"Ugh, it hurts," Kirishima Chiho said. "I never imagined that walking would be such a painful thing."

"Then let's take a rest." Xia Wuzhao pointed to the benches by the roadside, which were originally intended for tourists to rest when the cherry blossoms were in bloom.

Few students were sitting.

After all, this is the route home from school, and everyone is eager to go home.

Few students are willing to stay.

The two sat on the chairs, and the girl whispered, "I thought you would carry me on your back, because normal lovers would carry their girlfriends on their backs at this time, right?"

She seemed to be complaining, yet also giving a hint.

However, Xia Wuzhao was not convinced by her words. Instead, she said, "No matter how painful your path is, you still have to walk it step by step."

"It sounds like a bad deal."

“Perhaps that’s true, but there’s always something more important than anything else. You can stop whenever you want, and rest whenever you want, on your own journey,” Xia Wuzhao said. “If you’re in a car, you can only keep rushing towards your destination.”

“That’s not so bad, is it?” Kirishima Chiho said softly. “It’s always more relaxing to be in a car, isn’t it?”

The two sat on the bench, not very close to each other.

There was a considerable distance between them, and when they spoke, they would tilt their heads and lean closer together so that others wouldn't hear them.

Everyone else thought it was incredibly daring.

It's amazing that they're being so affectionate here.

They were all whispering, their voices enveloping Natsugiri Kai and Kirishima Chiho like a curtain of rain.

However, Xia Wuzhao didn't care.

Kirishima Chiho, on the other hand, maintained a polite smile, showing no hint of ambiguity.

It's like, like, ordinary friends.

This gave others the illusion that Kirishima Chiho and Natsuki Kai might just have a normal relationship, and that Natsuki Kai was here simply because she was using the pretense of asking for help to get close to Kirishima Chiho.

This reason only existed in everyone's minds, yet everyone felt it was so perfectly reasonable.

After all, Kirishima Chiho was so warm-hearted, so gentle, and so kind.

She was truly like an angel.

If that's the reason, then Kirishima will definitely agree.

They were also a little envious; they realized that such a reason was enough to get Kirishima, the squad leader, to come out.

But then I sighed, knowing that I definitely wouldn't be able to get Kirishima to come out next time using the same excuse.

Because Kirishima is so clever, if she discovers that Natsuki Kai is lying to her this time, such an excuse will definitely not work next time.

The others were filled with envy and jealousy.

Natsugiri Kai and Kirishima Chiho ignored the stares of the others and simply leaned back on the curved back of the bench, looking at the afternoon sky.

Because school ended early today, the sun was shining brightly and warmly.

After only a short while, she felt a slight sweat all over her body, and fine beads of sweat had already formed on the girl's delicate skin.

In the sunlight, you can see that her hair roots are neatly arranged, without a single stray hair.

Then, the skin on her neck was fair and firm, and it seemed to be shining brightly under the sunlight and against the backdrop of sweat.

It emits a faint, pale golden light, like a fine work of art.

The warm air made the girl drowsy, but the cicadas' chirping brought her great joy.

This is a completely different feeling from home, where it is deathly silent, but the sound of footsteps and doors makes it impossible to sleep.

But now, the chirping of nests, the sound of the wind, and the rustling of leaves were extremely noisy. Yet, they made the girl feel extremely quiet, as if she didn't have to think about anything.

She was so captivated that she closed her eyes and felt dizzy and wanted to fall asleep.

The girl involuntarily leaned against Xia Wuzhao's shoulder.

Xia Wuzhao sat there like a statue, without any expression.

Half an hour later, a cool breeze finally blew in.

The sleeping Kirishima Chiho was awakened, and she opened her tightly closed eyes.

This jolted the girl awake from her daze: "Was I asleep just now?"

“Yes, you’re asleep,” Xia Wuzhao said. “But when you’re asleep, your teeth are clenched so tightly that you almost break them.”

"Really? Would I do such a thing?" the girl said with a forced smile. "Aren't you lying to me?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "It's true."

"Then let's just take it as true." The girl said this on purpose, deliberately changing the subject.

She looked at the deserted slope.

He asked Xia Wuzhao, "Where are we going?"

Xia Wuzhao said, "Shouldn't this be something you consider?"

"Ah, I see?" Kirishima Chiho thought carefully for a moment: 'Even I don't know where I'm going. I'm not familiar with this place.'

But Xia Wukai just looked at Kirishima Chiho, waiting for Kirishima Chiho's decision.

The girl was in a dilemma, hesitating about where to go.

Should we go to the movies like in the films? Or have dinner? Or perhaps go shopping?

Kirishima Chiho never knew what to do or what to do.

When given the choice, she always feels lost.

After thinking it over carefully, she finally decided: "Then, I'll take the old-fashioned tram."

"What's the destination?" Xia Wuzhao asked.

“No destination.” Chiho thought she had a good idea: “We can just ride the tram and easily see the scenery outside. If we see a nice place, we can get off there.”

As she said this, a hint of smugness crept into her voice: "What do you think? It's a great idea, isn't it?"

"Ah."

Natsugiri Kai responded, which made Kirishima Chiho happy for a long time.

After making the decision, the two of them got up from the bench.

Continue walking down.

Loafers are still hard to get used to; they hurt terribly after just a few steps.

The girl persevered for a while, and when she finally walked down the slope, she found that her ankle was red and swollen.

She bent over, lifted her foot, and looked at her ankle wrapped in a thin sock with her fingers.

"Do you have any good ideas, Xia Wu?"

The girl asked Xia Wuzhao, who was standing beside her.

Xia Wuzhao glanced at it and said, "Just take off your shoes, isn't that enough?"

"Did you take it off?"

The girl looked around and then at the sun.

"Are you here now?"

"Ah."

Xia Wuzhao gave a positive affirmation.

So the girl took off her shoes and held onto her loafers with only two fingers.

He stepped straight onto the cement pavement: "This is so much more comfortable."

The girl smiled.

She seemed to have wanted to do this for a long time, walking around like a child.

Every now and then, as she stepped onto the slightly damp cement ground under the shade of the trees, she would say, "It's so cool."

And then every now and then, he would step on the scorching hot cement ground and say, "It's so hot."

The feeling of walking straight on the ground while wearing socks was novel to the girl.

It was as if they had never experienced it before.

She found it incredibly fascinating, just like a child.

After playing for a while, I stretched and yawned.

She found a watering basin by the roadside, turned on the tap, and scooped up some water to wash herself.

Xia Wuzhao stood beside her, holding the girl's hair to prevent her from getting it wet.

Chiho Kirishima's mind, which had been somewhat groggy, felt much clearer after being splashed with the icy water.

The sweat was washed away.

Although her socks were a little dirty, the girl didn't care.

Because my body hasn't been dirtied yet.

She said, "Now, all I have to do is stand in front of the station and wait for the tram."

Even something as simple as going to the station made her very enthusiastic.

She walked along, looking around. When she stood in front of the black and yellow barrier, she looked curiously at both sides.

Listening to the beeping of the traffic lights on the nearby pillar, I eagerly awaited the trolley passing by with its creaking sound.
