Kyoto Shenyin Love Story

Chapter 225 I Like You

When school was over the next day, Soya was packing up, and Makoto Shibazaki called him to the podium.

"Tomorrow is Friday, and Yoshikawa-san still doesn't seem to be able to come to school. I asked Soya to send me the survey form yesterday. I can only ask you to go there again today and bring it when I go to school tomorrow."

"...Did Yoshikawa call and tell the teacher?"

"Yes." Shibasaki Makoto nodded, "Although he is sick, Yoshikawa-san still cares about school affairs."

"I think she's quite energetic."

Turning his head to look at Akane Kirino, who had come to wait in Yoshikawa's seat, Soya turned back with a blank expression, "I still have my mind on this kind of thing, and it probably won't be a problem to come to school tomorrow."

"Did Soya see Yoshikawa-san yesterday?"

"I see, I'm alive and kicking, I can eat three bowls in one meal."

"That would be great." Makoto Shibazaki picked up the attendance book, smiled and said goodbye to the girls passing by under the podium, and looked at him again, "There is nothing more important than health."

"So let's wait for her tomorrow..."

"——The number of attendance days of Yoshikawa-san this semester has met the requirements. Even if you don't come to school for the next two weeks and only take the final final exam, it's no problem."

Makoto Shibazaki looked at him, "Yoshikawa-san said that she won't come to school this week."

"..."

Soya clicked his tongue, and Makoto Shibazaki didn't stay in the classroom too much.

"Then Soya-san please."

Packing up his things, he left school with Akane Kirino and Rin Asagiri, and boarded the tram back home, Soya was still thinking about letting them go to Yoshikawa's house with him;
Until these few days, Hongzi, who had lost contact and always sent messages through others, sent him two messages directly.

Yoshikawa: After thinking about it, I still want to meet Soya alone.

Yoshikawa: I want to continue the previous topic.May I?

"..."

Soya put down his phone, and Zhao Wuling in front of him looked up at him.

After reading the message, he already agreed from the bottom of his heart.

Now that she no longer evades, it's time to end this ambiguous and disconnected state.Breaking off the friendship at this point, or continuing to be friends, requires a breaking ceremony.

Just today.

Soya: Good.

Back at Kirino's old house, Soya put down his schoolbag, picked up a new mask and was about to go out, but Akane Kirino stopped him.

"Cherry radish!"

"...almost forgot."

Soya followed her to the backyard to pull out some radishes, but they didn't wash them, keeping them fresh and full of mud.

"Take a basin and put it in."

"Shall I go over with a basin?"

"Can't you?"

"It's not very pretty... Forget it, I'll find a bag myself."

Put the cherry radish that was just pulled out into a convenience bag, and when Soya was about to go out, Akane Kirino ran over again and stuffed him with the round radish that was picked yesterday.

"This cherry carrot must be given to Hongzi alone."

"The leaves are wilting..."

"The radish is still juicy."

"Ok."

Soya stuffed the radish into his pocket, picked up the bag and went out.

"Good afternoon, Mrs. Yoshikawa."

When he came to Yoshikawa's house, Mrs. Yoshikawa seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and opened the door soon after he rang the doorbell.

"good afternoon."

She greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Zongya came at the right time: I have to go out to do some things, and I won't be back until eight or nine in the evening, and the same is true for Hongzi's father. During this time, Hongzi will ask you to take care of him temporarily." .”

"..."

Sogu opened his mouth, but he wasn't too surprised.

It's just that he didn't come back until eight or nine in the evening. Isn't it too much time for him and Hongzi to spend alone with the Yoshikawa couple?
"Okay, I see. Here are some cherry radishes, just pulled out of the ground."

"Ah, thank you... Soya-kun, come in first."

Welcoming him into the house, Mrs. Yoshikawa sent the bag of radishes to the kitchen, and then took him to the upstairs room.

Opening the door, it was as dark inside as yesterday.

Hongzi was lying on the bed with his back to this side, and there was no movement when the door was opened.

"Then I'll go out first."

"Ok."

When he reached the stairs, Mrs. Yoshikawa stopped again and looked back at him.

"Mr. Soya."

Soya looked over.

"Hongzi finally mustered up his courage again. No matter what the choice is, I hope that Mr. Zongya will take it seriously."

"..."

He looked at her, then nodded.

"I see."

Mrs. Yoshikawa smiled, turned and went downstairs.

Soon, there was the sound of her going out from below.

After standing at the door for a while, Soya walked into the room and opened the curtains.

It was bright outside, and the light came in and filled the room.

He turned around, Hongzi buried himself on the pillow, looked at him, and pulled up the quilt slightly.

"It's too bright..." She took the initiative to say.

"Do you want to pull it up?"

"Need not."

Soya put down the curtains and leaned against the window, "How do you feel today?"

"It's much better."

"That's good."

After watching him for a while, Hongzi sat up, put her hands on the quilt, "Songya, help me hold my glasses."

Soya walked over and gave her the glasses on the bedside.

"Thank you."

Putting on his glasses, Hongzi motioned for him to sit down beside the bed.

"Has mom gone out yet?"

"go out."

"Mom is going on a date with Dad to a fancy restaurant by Lake Biwa tonight."

It turned out that it wasn't just to give them a space to be alone... No wonder they couldn't come back until eight or nine o'clock.

Soya smiled, "My daughter is still sick?"

"It's unbelievable."

"Yes."

"Songya."

"Ah."

Hongzi looked at him, "I like Zongya."

"En." Sogu looked at her, "Thank you."

"I already have someone I like, sorry."

The gorgeous dusk burns out the natural light of the day.

After the sun went down, the shrine halfway up the mountain was gradually shrouded in darkness, and the two floor lamps in the atrium were lit up at the same time.

"elder sister……"

Yuzi came out of the agency office, "It's time to close the agency, let's go back."

"Ah."

Kyoko nodded, then looked at the other shrine maidens who came out together, "Are Miss Noma and Miss Hasegawa going home?"

"It's still early to go home, we're going to have a few drinks at the Laquan Pavilion."

Minami Noma stretched her waist, "Do you want Kyoko to come together, maybe you can bump into the female customers of that store to hide benefits."

"..."

Rakusen-tei is an izakaya run by the Kirino family. Minami Noma and her witch colleagues have been there a few times and they all feel good, and they frequent it quite often;
The so-called hidden benefits of female customers are that they occasionally meet a handsome young man who comes to the store to help, that is, Soya.

"No, I can't go to the izakaya yet."

"What does it matter, you don't have to drink alcohol when you go to an izakaya."

Hasegawa interjected, "But when we get to the izakaya, Anan's lines will change to 'I've come to the izakaya, how can I not drink'."

Minami Noma laughed and didn't deny it, and the invitation to Kyoko to the izakaya was just a casual mention without force.

"See you tomorrow then."

"See you tomorrow." Jingzi bent slightly, "Be careful on the road."

She raised her head and watched Minami Noma walking towards the parking lot of the shrine with her arms around Hasegawa's waist.

It was getting darker.

The witches left one after another. After checking the doors and windows of the three main halls, Kyoko returned to the Social Affairs Office and walked into the innermost room.

After lowering the propped up window, her eyes fell on the clothes folded on the bedside again.

Those were the clothes that Soya had changed when he came to participate in the Gion Festival two days ago, and he originally planned to come to pick them up the next day.

"Soya-san didn't come over today..."

Picking up the white shirt on top, Kyoko thought about taking it home and washing it for him, but her hands involuntarily held the shirt closer.

"..."

After a pause for a few seconds, she still held the shirt in front of her and sniffed him lightly.

"Songya-san..."

Kyoko took the shirt into her arms.

At this time, Soya was being hugged tightly by another girl.

"Sorry... just a little while... just a little while..."
