Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 148 Dream and Hangover
Both feet are stretched out in front, one of which is bare.

The lost shoe was thrown into the river covered with thin ice.

After walking for a while, the socks were worn out, and a layer of black mud accumulated on the soles of the feet.The wound on the sole of the foot is still oozing blood. Fortunately, someone is carrying it, so I don't need to walk by myself for the time being.

The sky was gloomy and it looked like it was going to rain.

A huge tear was torn out of the coat during the fight, and it was hanging on his body, unable to block the wind, and the cold went straight into the clothes.

He had no choice but to hug her tightly, his chest pressed against her back, trying to keep a little warmth in the cold wind.

"Sister Zhaowu..."

She just lifted him up.

The two had already walked a long way, and the Children's Welfare Institute was just ahead.

Someone was waiting at the entrance of the orphanage, with arms folded and thin clothes, but in the howling cold wind, they looked calm and careless.

"Fight again?"

"Ah."

"I lost my shoes, and my clothes were torn. It's okay to be bullied all the time... Didn't you fight back?"

Behind his back, she also explained for him: "There are older children."

"Ah, then there's nothing you can do. Come in, go to the health room to treat the wound on your foot first."

"Ah."

Lying on the bed in the health care room, the ceiling above the head is made of square composite material boards, which has turned yellow under the influence of time.

He looked at the ceiling, and the two poked their heads out to look at him from the side.

"I'm going to sterilize the wound. If it hurts, just call it out and don't move around. Bell, you press his feet."

"Ah."

I don't know how long I waited, but the pain I expected when the alcohol cotton touched the wound never came.

He turned his head, only to find that the two people standing beside the hospital bed had disappeared.

"Bell... Teacher..."

The light and shadow changed, the ward disappeared, and there was a dim room in front of me.

"……Dream?"

Looking at the old furniture in the corner of the room, Soya was stunned for a while, and his consciousness slowly returned.

"pain……"

His head was aching and he was too heavy to move, but he still realized that this was not his room.

Familiar yet unfamiliar, without windows, it should be an unoccupied guest room on the first floor.

Soya turned over and saw Akane Kirino sleeping in another quilt, and quickly remembered what happened last night.

"By the way...she and I were both drunk."

Looking at the red mark on her forehead that hadn't faded, the scene before she passed out also resurfaced in his mind.

At that time, she had just crawled in front of him:

"Does it feel like kissing? I know... because I..."

Boom!
Before she finished speaking, her arms went limp, her body fell down without warning, and her forehead hit the floor with a muffled sound.

"It hurts... woo woo..."

He wanted to help her up, but he also fell down and fell into the wine.He failed to get up several times, so he lay down and decided to take a rest and try again.

And what happened after that, he has no impression.

"And slept until now..."

Soya sat for a while, the drowsiness in his head finally gradually subsided.Glancing at Akane Kirino who was still sleeping, he got up and left the room.

It is still sunny today, and the outside is bright, indicating that it is getting late.

When he came to the living room, he looked at the clock on the wall, the hour hand was between X and XI.

"It's past ten o'clock..."

Today is not the weekend, he is absent from work.

Sogu was stunned for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps.

He poked his head out in the corridor, and Keiko Kirino, who was standing at the door of the room where he slept all night, also saw him immediately.

"I just said why Zongya disappeared."

She closed the sliding door and let her daughter continue to sleep peacefully inside, "How is it, how does it feel to be hungover for the first time?"

"..."

Soya felt a little ashamed.

"Feel sorry."

Kirino Keiko laughed a few times, then waved his hand again.

"Okay, don't worry too much, this is the first time you drink fruit wine. Because the taste is very good, it is very comfortable to drink, and you don't feel the taste of wine, so you will drink too much without knowing it... But this is a strong drink. Made from wine."

She walked towards him, stopped before she was fully close, raised her hand and waved in front of her nose.

"The smell of alcohol is so strong, Soya should go take a bath again."

"Um……"

"When you taste the plum wine, don't you feel anything?"

"..."

Soya was silent.

How should he open his mouth and say that he actually drank two cups in one go?

Fortunately, Kirino Keiko didn't pay too much attention to the details, but talked about how she spent all her energy last night to move the two drunken children to the guest room, and then let them lie down in the futon .

"I came directly after receiving Suzu's call, and then I saw Soya hugging Akane, lying on the floor of the utility room."

"……yes."

"Soya is a steady child. Mom is very curious about the reason for your drinking."

She walked towards the kitchen, and motioned for Soya to follow, "Is that what Akane meant?"

"more or less."

Soya told what he still remembered, Keiko Kirino listened and looked back at him.

"Although Akane is mainly responsible, if Soya had agreed from the beginning, it wouldn't be what it is now."

"Well... After all, I'm not very interested in alcohol."

"Then how will you manage an izakaya?"

"..."

Sogu covered his forehead, "It hurts."

Kirino Keiko stared at him for a while, not sure if it was true or not.

"I made some hangover soup, which happened to have cooled down. It can't make you recover immediately, but at least it can make your head and stomach feel better."

"Um...thank you."

When he came to the kitchen and drank the slightly bitter hangover soup, Soya's stomach growled quickly.

"I'll prepare lunch." Keiko Kirino said, "Songya will wash off the smell of alcohol first, and go to sleep after lunch."

He shook his head, drank the whole bowl of hangover soup, and said, "I'm going to school this afternoon."

"Go to school?" Kirino Keiko looked at him in surprise, "Is it okay?"

"almost……"

Soya supported the dining table, although his body was still a little heavy, but he was almost fully awake mentally.

"Don't force it."

"nothing."

He didn't want to force it, but he experienced a few unexpected incidents - when he was in class, he was called by Minami Noma to deal with the spiritual body incident - his attendance rate was already a little dangerous.

This morning's absence can no longer be made up, but if he rushes back to school before the lunch break, it should still be counted as his attendance for half a day...

"Ok."

Kirino Keiko glanced at him again, and didn't persuade him much, but asked him to take a bath first, and check if his daughter showed any signs of waking up.

"Ok."

Arriving at the room where he had slept all night, Soya opened the sliding door, and the smell of alcohol greeted him.

"How much did she drink..."

Last night, when he found Akane Kirino in the utility room, she was already so drunk that God knew how many glasses of green plum wine she had drunk.

...Of course, the smell of alcohol in the room will become so strong, and he also has a lot to contribute.

Walking to the side of the futon, Akane Kirino buried herself in the pillow, still in a deep sleep, still wearing yesterday's uniform.

Sogu squatted down, touched her face with the back of his finger, and his eyes fell on her slightly parted lips again.

"Fortunately, at that time, she fell first..."

It was hard for him to deny that at that time, he didn't have the slightest bit of wishful thinking.

Alcohol inhibits reason, and he didn't want to drink any more.

At noon, when Soya went out with a somewhat heavy body, Akane Kirino was still asleep.

When I arrived at school, it was the time when the lunch break was about to end.

Most of the students in class A have already returned to the classroom, seeing the sluggish Soya appearing at the door of the classroom, there was a lot of discussion for a while.

"Hey, have you heard: Zongya spent the night at a rich woman's house last night, and was only released now..."

"Eh, no?"

"Otherwise, how could it be in this state? I've seen it a lot."

"..."

Zong Gu glanced at it for a while, but couldn't see who was talking nonsense, so he ignored it.

He walked into the classroom, Yoshikawa and Asagiri both watched him closely.The former found out that he and Akane Kirino were hungover when they came to school with them this morning.

"Soya, are you alright...Did Akane come to school too?"

"I'm fine. She's still sleeping, and Ms. Kirino is taking care of her in the old house." Soya said to Yoshikawa.

When he was about to return to his seat, he remembered another thing.

"I dreamed of the bell."

"..."

Zhao Wuling looked at him and nodded slightly.

Soya returned to his seat, Fushimi turned to talk to him, and Chairman Kinoshita Shoji quickly came over.

"Soya, you're absent from work this morning."

"Ah."

"Because you came here before the end of the lunch break, it counts as your normal attendance this afternoon. I will also tell Shibasaki-sensei to him."

"Thank you, it was a great help."

[Small theater related or unrelated to the main text]

Shoji Kinoshita: To be honest, I actually considered making Soya’s attendance rate lower and repeating the grade for a year.

Soya: Then I'll pick up your sister.

General Kinoshita: I'm sorry!

[In the future, there will be this kind of small theater, and it will be posted to the circle of book friends. I hope everyone can be more active and speak freely. 】
