Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 145 The Couple's Grip

When he came to the department of the Unnatural Phenomenon Research Department, he saw Akane Kirino sorting out the recent commissions with great interest, Soya waited a while before speaking.

"I'm going to the supermarket today."

"Purchasing ingredients?"

"Ah."

"I'll go too." Kirino Akane said.

Yoshikawa also expressed the same attitude.

The four immediately packed up their things and left the school.When they were about to reach the station, they watched a slowly starting tram go away.

"Ah, I missed..."

The platform was completely empty, only a few unlucky people including them were left, and the next tram would arrive at the station in 10 minutes.

"We'll have to wait a little longer."

Holding on to the guardrail of the platform, Akane Kirino looked at Lake Biwa, which was only one road away.

On the long-lost sunny day, the lake is rippling with blue waves and birds are circling.The water meets the sky, and the white waves roll, smoothing the sandy beach in front of you.

"I want to go to the lake for a walk."

"Ah."

Several people went down the steps next to the platform, crossed the road with sparse traffic, and stepped onto the gentle beach of the lake.

Not far away, there are also a few pairs of students who are not tall, wandering by the lake, basically a combination of a man and a woman.Akane Kirino didn't stop until she reached the water's edge, looking at the faint lake shoreline on the opposite side of the lake.

"It would be great if I could fly there... I haven't seen the one that can fly for a long time."

After a few seconds, Soya realized that the "that" she was talking about was the daughter of Huang Quan.

"It's a good thing not to see."

Akane Kirino smiled, and looked up at the blue sky again.

"If only I could fly, like a bird."

Soaring through the sky like a bird is the common desire of most people.So when she asked if there were other spirits who could fly besides the daughter of Huang Quan, Soya quickly gave the answer.

"No. At most, it can only be suspended from the ground, and the height is also very low—unless it is blown away by strong winds."

"Will it fall to death when it falls?" Yoshikawa asked.

"You can't die from a fall. You can understand the spirit body as a plastic bag blown into the air by the wind."

She imagined it for a while, and couldn't help shaking her head, "I can't help myself, it's so pitiful."

"Spiritual bodies that will be blown around by strong winds basically have no ability to think. They don't feel pain by themselves."

"Is it... I feel even more pitiful."

Soya just looked at the lake and didn't say anything.

They were still waiting for the tram, so they hadn't gone very far.

Overlooking the vast lake, ten minutes passed quickly.When Soya and the others were about to return to the platform, a student couple not far away also came over.

They didn't know each other, both of them looked at each other overtly and secretly, and then passed by.

"Is it a couple?" Akane Kirino whispered after following.

"Holding hands." Yoshikawa stared at the place where the two were connected.

Kirino Akane narrowed her eyes, "But, it feels very ordinary."

Yoshikawa looked at the two people who clasped their fingers, "It's not very ordinary..."

Kirino Akane suddenly held her hand and smiled at her again.

"..."

Yoshikawa took a deep breath.

"It doesn't count between girls... If a boy and a girl hold hands like this, they are considered a couple in the eyes of others."

Soya followed behind, listening absent-mindedly, and didn't think there was any problem with this sentence.

Until Akane Kirino looked back at him and suddenly blinked.

"..."

Jingle bell--

"Anti Kirino Akane" alarm ringing loudly.

It's just that it's too late.

"If Soya and Hongzi held hands like this, would others think that you are dating, and then things like today wouldn't happen?"

As Kirino Akane said, she exchanged glances with Yoshikawa next to her and Soya behind her, with different meanings.

"It means pretending to be a couple and acting as a shield for each other."

"..."

I'm really afraid that the world will not be chaotic... Soya sighed in his heart.

Although having a girlfriend in name can indeed make him a lot quieter, but this is obviously just Akane Kirino's superficial statement-her real plan is to observe the reaction of Yoshikawa who pretends to like him.

"How?" She looked at the two of them again.

Yoshikawa pursed his lips and looked at Soya.

Soya shook his head.

Secretly intertwined with each other, the relationship between the three of them is already complicated enough, adding a layer of camouflage, true or false, will only make it more confusing...

Yoshikawa: "If this works, let's try it."

"..."

The two looked at each other.

[Don't do troublesome things. 】

【I'm just cooperating with Akane~】

"Ah, is Soya shy?" Yoshikawa said with a smile in his eyes.

"..."

Zong Gu didn't speak, and walked up to grab her hand.

With a tight palm, Yoshikawa subconsciously wanted to pull away, but couldn't break free.

His palm wrapped around her forcefully, sweeping his fingertips, trying to figure out the white and smooth back of his hand.

Adjusting to the correct angle, a few fingers squeezed a little harder, and held her tightly.

Fingers intertwined, Soya raised his hands in front of each other, staring into her eyes.

"Is that right?"

"..."

From the front of her forehead to the back of her neck, her face became so red for the first time, and she could no longer hide it.

Kirino Akane also looked at her in a daze.

Oops, it went too far...

Zong Gu secretly thought something was wrong.

He wanted to let go, but was held tightly again.

"..."

When he raised his eyes again, Yoshikawa stared at him, his clenched hands trembling, but his eyes showed persistence.

"Just, that's it..."

Before crossing the road by the lake and returning to the platform, Yoshikawa let go of Soya's hand. The reason was that there was no one he knew around, and there was no need to pretend to be a couple for the time being.

I got on the tram and walked around Lake Biwa in silence for half a circle.After arriving at the station, she suddenly said that there were still some things at home and she couldn't accompany them to the supermarket.

"Feel sorry!"

"Eh...it's okay."

The four separated at the intersection.

"See you tomorrow……"

Watching Yoshikawa go away and disappear on another road, Kirino Akane turned her head to look at Soya.

"Hongzi is shy."

"Ah."

"I'm really shy."

"……Um."

That kind of blushing cannot be faked...

Akane Kirino was a little dazed and at a loss.

Could it be that Hongzi really likes Soya now?
buzz-

Sogu's voice was slightly surprised, pulling back her speeding thoughts.

"News from Yoshikawa..."

She didn't ask directly, just looked at him.

But Zong Gu glanced at the content of the message, and turned the phone screen to her.

Yoshikawa: How about my acting skills, are you surprised?Lucy stared at me all the way.

"..."

Akane Kirino opened her mouth in disbelief, then frowned again.

"It can't be acting."

Of course he knew it wasn't acting.

Soya: I was taken aback.

Soya: How did you do it?
"..."

How did you do it?
Because I was really shocked...

Yoshikawa squeezed his phone and looked back.

After walking so far, the figures of the three companions could no longer be seen.

My face got hot again...

She bought a can of iced juice from a roadside vending machine and pressed it on her cheeks.

"Good ice!"

Yoshikawa: Secret Secret~
Looking at Akane Kirino's expression, Soya understood that she was not satisfied with such an answer.

Soya: The secret is that Yoshikawa likes me?

"..."

Surely there is no way to just be vague like this?

Staring at the news on the screen, Yoshikawa changed his hand to hold the juice and put it on the other side of his face.

Yes.

like.

I like Soya the most.

While typing, delete at the same time.

"..."

How could such a reply be sent to him?

At least not yet.

Perhaps the iced juice had an effect, Yoshikawa, whose cheeks were covered with water, calmed down a lot, and his face was not so hot.

"Hongzi didn't reply..."

"Ah."

Kirino Akane looked at Soya, "Soya asked too directly."

"Otherwise, Yoshikawa would not have revealed the 'secret'."

"but……"

buzz-

Akane Kirino immediately moved her head closer, but she closed her eyes and turned her head to the side before she could see the content of the message clearly.

"Look at it if you want..."

Soya laughed, and quickly glanced at the message from Yoshikawa.

"...I have no secrets from Kirino."

She opened one eye and saw that he had turned the phone around before carefully reading the content of the message.

"Oh……"

Akane Kirino couldn't help laughing.

Yoshikawa: I was thinking about how I would react if Akane was the one who treated me so hard... and then it was what Soya saw.

Yoshikawa: I have no resistance to Akane.

"Hongzi is so cute...I really want to try this."

Kirino Akane's eyes lit up with eager flames, Soya was startled, and immediately dissuaded her.

"Didn't Yoshikawa find out that you read this news?"

"Ah... that's right."

She gave up this plan with some regrets, but she didn't give up completely.

On the other hand, Yoshikawa is still waiting for Soya's reply.

buzz-

Soya: Passed.

"What's 'qualified'..."
