บท 139: Finding Yotsuba
Once you think of someone else in your heart, or if you have had a fight with someone else, you will be very awkward when you meet.
This is Fuutarou's case.
Since he made a speech similar to a declaration of war at noon that day, he has become afraid to face Shinichi directly.
After all, in the quintuplet issue, he fooled Shinichi with his speech skills like blurring focus, trying to use him to open up situations where he couldn't do anything about it. This is an indisputable fact.
Clearly, he had succeeded, and by now Shinichi was already hesitating, shaken by his rhetoric, but this was nothing to be proud of.
As long as the goal can be achieved, the process is not a problem. Fuutarou did act with such an idea...
However, humans were difficult creatures to define to the end, and there were very few people with that spirit.
Every time he saw his friend frown and think, with a somber face as soon as he entered the classroom, a regretful Fuutarou with the label "bad person" floated on his body.
Is it okay to do this? He started to doubt himself, and his expression also became gloomy.
For his own work, in the name of righteousness, he caused the only male in class he had a good relationship with to fall into such trouble...
Is this friendship really so cheap?
(No, this isn't friendship... I owe him one, that's why I'm so entangled like this...)
Even he knows the truth that debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay.
But facing Shinichi, Fuutarou felt ashamed that he could actually do this kind of thing. If it weren't for the salary of this job being too generous, he had also invested a lot of effort into it, there was no way to give up. Otherwise, how could he say that to Shinichi?
The big problem is getting additional jobs and getting subsidies. Why make yourself and others feel uncomfortable?
It was true that Fuutarou was a little aloof, but that wasn't an unreasonable excuse.
He also wanted to treasure this hard-earned friendship.
Working can make money, making money can subsidize the family... If Shinichi is persuaded by him to persuade the quintuplets to concentrate on their studies, as long as he works harder and thinks of better teaching methods, he might be able to tutor until graduation.
At that time, the money earned would definitely make life better, right? At the very least, he could fulfill the wish he never dared to say...
The price is that she won't be able to face Shinichi head-on in the future, and she can never have an equal relationship with him with a clear conscience.
In this way, it's not friendship.
He was still single, no friends, no old foes, no one to pat each other on the shoulder and talk nonsense, no one to reach for the rarest premium product when called to buy bread.
Although Fuutarou doesn't really want to admit it, but...
This was not the result he wanted to see.
Fuutarou turned his head slightly, peeking at Shinichi behind him. Looks crumpled and uncomfortable.
He turned his head and looked at the table, he fell into doubts.
As soon as Fuutarou looked away, Shinichi returned to his expressionless face.
Indeed, with regards to the quintuplet issue, he had fallen into a vicious cycle of thinking about whether it was right for their sake, and was looking for an answer, a way out that was fair and unapologetic.
However, this didn't mean that he would be easily fooled by Fuutarou's words.
In this world, the only one who could fool him was himself.
The more you learn and see, the higher the walls will be in your heart, and the more gullible you will become.
Some elites will still be cheated by their luck. It is only because the opponent's "ladder" is higher than them, and the deception is more advanced.
And Fuutarou? Sorry, when Shinichi left the roof at noon, he didn't pay attention to this person, and the attachment he showed in front of him was just to confuse him.
True, Fuutarou did give him trouble.
Rank three still dared to bark in front of him? Then let's hurt each other and see who understands each other's way of thinking better!
Shinichi raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Then he felt an itch on the side of his face, turned his head, and found that Furuhashi was looking at him.
"Is there any problem?"
"At that time, I felt like I saw Asada-san who became a criminal and got stabbed to death..."
"Wait, why is the death method so detailed..."
...
After school.
Today was the day where there was no need to gather, everyone would do their own thing. Itsuki follows Shinichi's advice and plans to find a dessert restaurant to relax from her recent stress. Ichika has to go home to sleep and only starts the executive committee at night. Nino went for afternoon tea. Miku spent some time in the library, trying to pick out some medical books related to the generals of the Warring States Period.
Shinichi is looking for Yotsuba.
Originally, he wanted to go to class D to find her, but he happened to run into Ogata on the street. When he spoke to her about the progress of her studies, he asked her where Yotsuba had gone.
"Nakano Yotsuba? Ah, that ribbon bunny who's always so energetic?" Hearing her name, Ogata suddenly came to her senses, then showed an inconceivably helpless expression, "...Although she was very kind to help me move the flyers last time, but I'm really not good at dealing with people like that..."
"Well, do you know where she is now?"
"Should be in the field, right? She's from the track club, and there's an 80% chance she's practicing right now." Ogata looked straight at Shinichi, "Shinichi-san, do you know Nakano-san?"
"Yeah, she's one of my underlings in the Forest School Committee… No, one of my comrades." Shinichi smiled, and Ogata gave a half-understood answer.
Seeing the cute doll-like appearance, the urge suddenly surged, Shinichi stretched out his hand subconsciously and patted her head.
Ah, this urge to touch heads hasn't appeared in several chapters.
It would be nice if Ogata was his sister, so Shinichi didn't have to find excuses to touch her head like this, and didn't have to force himself.
"Shinichi-san, please stop this behavior of touching my head."
Ogata stared at him angrily, but her fair skin was tinged with a red hue.
"Ahem, unknowingly." Shinichi coughed in embarrassment, and pulled his hand away. Even though his heart was still a little awkward, his demeanor was much calmer than in the self-study room.
Is this proof of the progress of their relationship?
He used to feel shy when he performed an action, but now he could smile to wash away the embarrassment, the distance between people was so beautiful.
Even if nothing changes, there will be something quietly moving forward.
After saying goodbye to Ogata, Shinichi went to the field, looked into the distance, and immediately saw Yotsuba.
As he was about to walk over, he glanced at the uniform on his body, frowned and thought for a moment.
Finally, he returned to the teaching building, went to class and took out a tracksuit to wear.
