I won't be a loser.

"It doesn't matter."

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and the girl slumped in the room.

The wise man standing at the door looked at the girl who seemed to be in despair, and he also understood the impact of the woman's words just now on her.

About half an hour later, the girl stood up in a daze, packed up all her things with a blank look in her eyes, and left the house. Seeing that the girl was in an unwell state, Xianren followed her closely to prevent any accidents.

Feeling that it might be a little dangerous to go to the subway station at this moment, the wise man walked towards the residential area, stopped a taxi, and returned to the door of the "coffee shop".

He accompanied the girl into the house, made a cup of coffee, went to the girl's room, and handed it to her.

"Who am I? Miyamizu-kun...what does my father...think of me? And what does my mother...think of me?"

"You are yourself, Yoshida Saki. Of course, if you are not satisfied now, you can change your first and last name."

"......"

Looking at the coffee in her hand, she slowly raised her head and looked at the boy in front of her.

"I no longer know the meaning of my life... What am I... anyway..."

In this regard, the wise man didn't know how to comfort the other party. He stood quietly in the room, looking at the girl sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her empty eyes, and the tears that flowed quietly, all falling into the coffee, and the ripples made the wise man not know how to speak.

A wasted cup of coffee.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, thinking that it would be better to let girls handle such things, so I thought about Futaba Rio, who was already out of school and wondered if she was at home...

"Never mind. Her personality is even less suited to comfort."

He wanted to leave, but was worried that something might happen to the girl here alone, so he just sat quietly on a chair beside him, looking at the girl who was holding a cup of coffee on the edge of the bed, not saying a word.

I don’t know how much time has passed. When the wise man was tired of sitting, the girl finally moved. She put the coffee on the table beside her and slowly unbuttoned her clothes with both hands.

"......"

The wise man, who was already drowsy, gradually opened his eyes when he saw the girl's actions.

"Change clothes? Then I'll go out first."

"At least once, Miyamizu-kun, let me...let me understand why Mom...?"

"I don't mind, but I think my girlfriend would mind more. Besides, you live here too, so you don't want to have conflicts with other people, right?"

Looking at the girl who had already unbuttoned her coat, and considering that Futaba Rio was at home right now, Xianren didn't want to be caught on the spot, so he walked up to the girl, looked at the girl who had just unbuttoned her coat, and put his hand on her head, stroking her head gently.

"This world is not just about the filth in front of us, but also about poetry and distant places. In the future, we will always find our own happiness."

"Miyamizu-kun."

"The coffee is already cold, so I took it out. If you need anything, just come to me."

The hand above her head slowly slid down, gently caressing the girl's tender cheek, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. She smiled at the girl, picked up the coffee beside her, and walked out of the house.

He walked out of the girl's room and looked down at the coffee in his hand.

"Salt coffee?"

After thinking for a moment, he brought it in front of him, sniffed it gently, and then returned to the kitchen counter to pour the coffee.

When I returned to the bedroom, I saw Rio Futaba sitting at the desk, reading a book.

"I knew you were home."

"Were you with Yoshida just now?"

"A very terrible thing happened to her. If I hadn't been there, I probably wouldn't have believed such a thing could happen in reality. I always thought people couldn't be that bad, but now reality has taught me that reality can be even worse than what I created."

This sigh of emotion made Futaba Rio look at Xianren twice more.

"What happened? Aren't you going back with Yoshida to get some daily necessities?"

"Her mother cheated on her in front of her and said some obscene words."

"..."

Futaba Rio probably understood and looked at the boy in front of her in silence.

"So you were just comforting her?"

"She's not a strong person, and I'm worried something might happen to her, so I've been staying by her side from now until now. Can you go talk to her?"

"Do you think I'm good at negotiation?"

"Sadly, neither am I."

After staying in the bedroom with Futaba Rio for a while, Xianren returned to the living room, looked at the various magazines and books on the bookshelf, was silent for a moment, then went out for a while and went to a nearby convenience store.

After about ten minutes, I returned to the coffee shop and arrived at the door of Yoshida Saki's room.

I knocked on the other person's door, but there was no movement in the room.

"I'm in?"

The door was not locked, so I opened it easily and entered the room. I saw Yoshida Saki sitting quietly on the edge of the bed, holding a dolphin stuffed doll in her hands.

"Pudding, when you're in a bad mood, try something sweet and you'll feel better."

The pudding bought from the convenience store was handed to the girl.

Another year of budding: 325. Heading to Adachi

"Is it okay not to go back?"

"Anyway, I'm going out with you tomorrow, and I have to rush back tomorrow morning. Instead of wasting time like that, why not stay here tonight?"

He returned to the bedroom, poured the lemon tea from the teapot into his teacup, took a small sip of the slightly bitter tea, looked at Rio Futaba standing in front of him, answered her question casually, and glanced down at the book on the table.

It was another physics book that looked very profound. He had average interest in science. It wasn't that he hated it, but he just didn't have much interest in it. He personally preferred liberal arts.

The girl walked up to him, sat down on the seat next to him, opened the book, and began to read the work that the wise man was not interested in.

There was no further conversation after the brief one.

In the quiet bedroom, he looked at Rio Futaba who was carefully reading a book, but he did not disturb her. In this peaceful environment, he also thought about tomorrow's itinerary.

The amusement park has been confirmed, but which one to go to has not yet been decided. There are quite a few amusement parks in the city of Tokyo.

For example, in Koishikawa where he lives, there is an amusement park called "Tokyo Dome City" near Korakuen subway station, and in Asakusa there is also an amusement park called "Asakusa Hanayashiki", and there is also a theme park called "Namco Nanja Castle" near Gokokuji Temple.

More famous ones like Disneyland are also near Tokyo, and it doesn't take much time to get there.

"Do you want to go to Disney?"

"Hmm? Are you planning to go to Disney tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is the weekend. If I go there, there will probably be a lot of tourists, and the queue will take a very long time. I personally prefer to go there when there are fewer people."

"I don't have any objection, anywhere is fine."

"Have you ever been to Tokyo Dome City near Korakuen?"

"No."

"Then let's go there and take a look."

"Ah."

After a brief conversation, the destination for tomorrow was determined, and the wise man stood up.

"I'm going to the bathroom first."

"Ah."

I walked out of the bedroom and came to the bathroom door. Looking at the dark bathroom, I opened the door and entered the bathroom. Just as I undressed and prepared to shower, I heard footsteps outside the door.

Recalling what had happened before, he glanced towards the door and locked it.

"There's someone inside."

"Ah? Sorry, I didn't know you were...?"

"I haven't started yet. If you want to use it, I can give it to you first."

"No, no need."

Yoshida Saki was outside the door. After hearing the other party's refusal, Xianren raised his eyebrows, took off his shirt, threw it into the clothes rack, then went in and showered.

Yoshida Saki, who was standing at the bathroom door, blushed slightly when she heard that the person inside was Kento, and hurriedly left the bathroom door.

The two adult women sitting in the living room drinking couldn't help but smile at each other when they saw the girl's panicked figure.

"How long do you think it will be?"

"One week."

Mari Fukaoka looked at Yoshida Saki who was leaving, was silent for a moment, and then gave her answer.

Based on her understanding of wise men, she would not refuse the benefits that came to her door.

The girl he helped, named Yoshida Saki, obviously had a very strong liking for him. Living under the same roof like this, it was unlikely that they would last too long.

"Then I guess three days."

Machida Sonoko curled up the corners of her mouth. She didn't think it would take a week, such a long time. It would only take three days at most.

"What if I lose?"

"The wine is almost finished. Whoever loses will get to replenish it."

"OK."

The two made an agreement and decided to quietly observe the dynamics and development of things. When their eyes met inadvertently, they both began to calculate in their hearts.

When Xianren came out of the bathroom wearing a yukata, he saw Mari Fukaoka and Sonoko Machida, who smiled at him strangely for some reason.

"..."

Back in the bedroom, Futaba Rio, who was sitting, also closed the book and looked at Xianren, who was wearing a yukata. She walked in front of him and while Xianren was still wiping his hair, she took the initiative to put her hands on his shoulders and pushed him down on the bed...

When I woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the morning. I opened my eyes in a daze and found that I had slept for ten hours. I was a little surprised.

"Usually we only rest for about six hours, but this time we rested for ten hours?"

He sat up and found that Futaba Rio was not beside him. He blinked and looked for her in the bedroom.

However, she was not found in the bedroom.

Thinking that the other person should have gotten up earlier, he stopped thinking about it, walked to the closet, took out his clothes, put them on, and walked out of the bedroom.

"woke up?"

When I arrived at the bedroom, I saw Futaba Rio and Yoshida Saki sitting at the dining table eating, but the others were not there.

"Are those two still resting?"

"Ah."

"Good morning, Yoshida."

"Good morning, Miyamizu-kun, would you like me to help you prepare breakfast?"

"No need, I can do it myself."

He took out the milk from the refrigerator and poured himself a glass. Then he looked at their breakfast, heated up the bread, spread jam on it, and that was his breakfast.

A mouthful of bread, a sip of milk.

"I'm going out with Rio later. If you have anything, you can call me."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Yoshida Saki's eyes met with Xianren for a moment, and he couldn't help but look at Futaba Rio who was sitting next to him. As soon as his eyes fell on her, he shrank back as if he had been electrocuted, lowered his head, and nodded slightly.

"Ah."

"If you have any questions, you can ask Mari-san and Machida-san. They are both trustworthy adults."

"Ah."

After all the advice, it was unknown how much Yoshida Saki took in, and whether he would really ask the two for help. He sat in his seat and looked at the girl with her head down, without wasting too much time talking. He had done everything he could, and the other party was not a child anymore, so there was no need to worry about anything else.

Looking at Futaba Rio, who was quietly having breakfast with a seemingly indifferent attitude, Xianren couldn't help but chuckle. He stuffed the last bit of bread into his mouth, drank the milk, and stood up.
