Women only affect the speed of my reasoning!

"I see. Did Miss Rita come to Japan specifically to see Shiina, or did she just drop by?" Mitaka Jin casually raised the topic.

"Hmm~ It should be considered a convenient way."

Rita thought about it seriously, and her next words stunned everyone.

"After all, I came to Japan this time to bring Mashiro back to England. In Japanese terms, I want to take Kaguya back to the moon."

"……Eh?"

Everyone else was shocked by the news, but Qin Sanshu was still eating calmly.

"Yes." Rita said matter-of-factly, "Because we can no longer let Mashiro learn comics. This will only waste her painting talent."

"I won't go back." Shiina Mashiro whispered.

"I knew you would say that."

Rita's tone sounded as if she had expected it.

"But please reconsider it and think about the possibilities you have at your fingertips. It is not impossible to paint a painting that will leave a lasting impression on people. There are still many people who are quietly looking forward to your next work. A piece of work, I can no longer watch Mashiro continue to waste time and talent, so..."

squeak--!

Before he finished speaking, Qin Xianshu, who had been calmly eating his food, suddenly froze in his hand movements. Then he roughly stood up and pushed away the chair, put his chin down and covered his mouth and strode towards the bathroom.

"Hey! Usamashu, are you okay?" Mitaka Jin was also frightened by his sudden reaction.

"Um……"

But Qin Xianshu didn't even have time to answer. He rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door behind him.

Half a second later, a suppressed sound of vomiting came from inside through the door.

"what happened to him……"

Rita looked inexplicably in the direction Qin Xianshu was leaving, somewhat confused.

But that doesn't mean others don't know what's going on.

"go out……"

Shiina Mashiro stood up from her seat, lowering her head and her falling bangs blocked the light and cast a large shadow on her face.

She pushed Rita and pushed her away from her seat, staggering and almost falling.

"True white!?" Rita was extremely surprised.

Shiina Mashiro didn't intend to explain at all, she just repeated the word "get out" and kept pushing until she pushed Rita out of the door.

"Wait...wait a minute, Mashiro, do you want to hear what I have to say?"

"I will not go back!"

Shiina Mashiro raised his head, with obvious anger in his brown eyes.

After saying these last words, she closed the door hard.

Chapter 247 Bad Past

In the bathroom, Qin Mianshu leaned against the wall with trembling hands, panting heavily.

The toilet bowl underneath was full of vomit, and since it had just been eaten and had not yet been digested, one could clearly distinguish the rice and vegetables in the vomit, as well as some meat mixed with it.

It wasn't that the food didn't taste good, but Rita's words brought back some bad memories for him. Because the experience was so long and unpleasant, it even caused physical discomfort.

The bad past that I originally thought had been completely forgotten was once again dug up from the corner of my memory. It was like the phosphine gas that had been sealed in the tomb for a long time leaked out and came into contact with the air, burning into a raging flame, almost destroying me. He was not swallowed whole.

'Xiangshu, can daddy do a magic trick for you? '

'Um?magic?OK. '

'Don't blink, three two one...hey! '

'oh!so amazing!Great! '

'Can daddy teach you?Once you learn it, you can become a magician! '

'good!I want to be a magician in the future! '

'Look, that's it...and this happens again...'

'It's that simple? '

'All magic is based on extremely simple principles supplemented by some exquisite tricks to achieve magical visual effects. If you don't believe it, you can try it yourself. '

'Okay, I'll give it a try. '

'good!You actually succeeded in the first try, even after your father only demonstrated it once. Xian Shu, you are very talented in magic! '

'Hmm...but I feel like the magic I performed isn't that interesting. '

'It's normal. Magicians are the most difficult type of people in the world to enjoy the charm of magic. '

'Hey~ Then I don't want to be a magician in the future. I still want to watch other people perform magic. It's more interesting that way. '

'Don't say such things, as long as you give full play to this talent, you will one day become a world-famous great magician!Let the whole world admire you! '

'I……'

'In this way, come back directly after school from tomorrow. Dad will start teaching you some magic skills every day. I will ask your mother to help you say hello to the teacher at the model airplane class. You don't have to go there again. Don't waste your time. Wasted on those bubble planes. '

'...'

That night.

'Mom...'

'Um? '

'Dad said he would teach me magic. '

'Oh, your father has already told me about this matter. I have already called the teacher at the model aircraft class. There is no need to go there in the future. I also put away your detective novels for you, Umbrella Shu. Just follow your father and learn magic well, ah? '

'But I don't want to learn magic, it feels boring...'

'How can you child say such a thing? Adults are all for your own good and will not harm you. Moreover, your grandfather also supports this matter. Be obedient and don't be afraid of suffering and suffering. Your father and your grandfather have neither If you can win the Merlin Award, you have to give credit to the adults, do you understand? '

'...'

In ten years, there have been countless similar conversations.

Finally, ten years later.

'(Phone) Hello, did you watch the award ceremony? '

'...Looked at it. '

'I won the Merlin Award for you. According to the agreement, I will have no relationship with you from now on, that's it. '

Toot toot—(hang up)

"Tsk, that's really disgusting..."

Squeezing all the remaining vomit in his mouth into the toilet, Qin Mianshu held his breath and pressed the flush button.

Amidst the sound of running water, he moved to the side of the sink, turned on the faucet, took some water with his hand and rinsed his mouth. He took a deep breath to adjust his mood slightly before walking out of the bathroom.

There was silence in the living room.

The girl who had kicked her former British roommate out of Sakurasou within 10 minutes of meeting her had returned to the dining table, her head lowered and silent.

The others also ate in silence.

Seeing Qin Sanshu come out of the bathroom, Yukiko put down the bowls and chopsticks worriedly and got up and walked over.

"Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Qin Xianshu took the initiative to hold the girl's extended hand.

In the past, Yukiko's hands would be slightly cooler, but now he only felt warm.

in a physical sense.

He sat down at the dining table he returned to with Yukiko. He noticed that the atmosphere was a bit silent, Rita was missing, and Mashiro was acting like this. Qin Ushu could probably guess what happened outside while he was in the bathroom just now. .

He picked up the rice bowl and took two big mouthfuls, speaking vaguely.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Maybe I ate something unclean at noon. I'll be fine after vomiting."

"..."

"..."

Such an excuse is too far-fetched. Lunch time in Sobu High is around 11:30. If there is something wrong with what you eat at noon, you should have vomited it all in the afternoon. How can it be kept in your stomach until now?

Not to mention strict logic, not even common sense. Under normal circumstances, Qin Ushu would never have said such a thing even if he was drunk.

However, everyone else knew this well, so no one stood up to expose it.

"Well, eating immediately after vomiting is prone to repeated vomiting, and it is best to let the stomach and intestines rest after vomiting, and wait two or three hours before eating." Mitaka Jin reminded.

"That's right, don't force yourself if you can't eat it, Umatsu Shu." Misaki Uekusa also followed, "I'll take out your portion separately and put it on the stove later. I'll eat it when I feel better." Just pop it in the microwave and eat it right away.”

"Well... I'll bother you later, Misaki-senpai."

Qin Xianshu thought for a moment, then put down the bowls and chopsticks, left the table, and walked towards the room.

Before leaving, he rubbed Mashiro's head comfortingly.

It means, don't worry, don't worry about me.

Back in the bedroom, Qin Sanshu fell heavily on the bed, like a salted fish that suddenly lost its dream.

With his feet still hanging on the floor, he raised his hands and placed them on his forehead, staring at the half-blocked light falling above his head, lost in thought.

Do talented people have to respond to the expectations of others?

Of course not, there is no such reason.

If you insist on saying yes, then you don’t see a rich man handing out some money to ordinary people.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, Qin Ushu is a guy who does whatever he wants and can even be said to be self-centered, but in fact, he was once a child with a gentle personality and understanding of others.

It's just that this advantage made him become a universal wishing machine for a small number of people for a long time.

Until one day he suddenly figured out that he could no longer endure this wishing machine-like life.

As a result, Qin Ushu gradually became stronger and treated everything with an absolutely subjective attitude, giving the impression that he was not bound by common sense and rules at all.

But it brought him freedom and the life he wanted.

To a certain extent, Qin Ushu and Mashiro can be said to be the same.

So he will never allow what happened to him to happen again to Mashiro.

"Hmm~"

After thinking about this, Qin Sanshu suddenly stood up from lying flat on the bed.

And just when he was about to open the computer and browse the commission as usual, he accidentally caught a glimpse of half a golden head sticking out from the edge of the window sill, shivering in the cold wind.

The high school detective was silent for a moment and opened the window.

"……what are you doing here."

Chapter 248 The brave girl is not afraid of difficulties

Rita was not really surprised that she was kicked out of Sakurasou by her former roommate.

She and Mashiro Shiina grew up in the same studio. She was the one who taught Mashiro Shiina how to use a computer to follow comics online, so Rita knew very well how much the former loved comics.

In contrast, Mashiro's attitude towards traditional art is just "not disgusting".

I can’t say I like it very much, but because I have full talent points, the painting level that ordinary people can achieve after years of repeated practice can be achieved very easily, and there is no "frustration".

It's like using a plug-in to mow grass and kill indiscriminately in a game that you have no interest in.

It's certainly not torture and imprisonment, but it also doesn't give any sense of accomplishment.
