April is more than your lies

"Monthly exam? We don't have this thing."

When the last note of a certain piano piece fell, Hesha responded to what Shingo mentioned.

"On the contrary, the teacher in my class said that if you want to participate in the national competition in the summer, you can take time off to practice at home recently... If it weren't for you, I wouldn't want to come."

"I really envy you..."

Shingo sighed.

Of course, he was not worried about his academic performance, but simply didn't want to take the exam - at least the Chinese test paper was very troublesome to write, and his hands were sore after two hours.

"Who told you not to come to the music department in the first place?"

Thinking of this, He Sha still felt a little bit resentful in her heart.

Other unimportant guys could easily see Shingo in school, but she could only meet him during lunch break...

Obviously, she is the one who cares about this guy the most...

"Also, you didn't come here to accompany me even once last week..."

"Come here in the afternoon. I skipped class..."

If Mr. Fukugi hadn't mentioned that he should study hard, Shingo felt that he might not have thought of skipping class today.

If he really wanted to take the teacher's instructions into his mind, he should be studying seriously now, but...he is not a good student, and this has nothing to do with whether his grades are good or not.

"Will you never come again?"

When sitting at the piano, Kazusa had more leeway to ignore Shingo's nonsense.

A guy who skipped classes without any psychological burden had no position to say that he studied seriously, but...if she could think of something to refute Shenwu's fallacy, she thought she couldn't do it.

"Study hard... You said it yourself, it's just something you can do temporarily. And when you came here, didn't you bring your textbooks? For you, staying here might be more efficient..."

"But Hesha and I are the only two people who think so."

Shingo smiled.

"Maybe, Mr. Fukugi will talk to me again tomorrow... Although he won't care too much about this, if he skips too many classes, he will still be in trouble after all..."

"Everything you said is right..."

Hesha closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was holding her breath and concentrating.

The small talk should end here, and not a single second of practicing time should be wasted - because Shenwu is stuck with eight hours of time, and any extra second will cause him to chatter for a long time.

What a troublesome guy...

"By the way, Kazusa... let's go after school today."

"Ok?"

The notes have slowly intertwined into music, and Hesha's response is submerged in it.

"Didn't we agree last night that we would make pudding together?"

Shenwu didn't raise his voice intentionally. He was sure that Hesha could hear what he said clearly.

"it is good."

Kazusa didn't ask for the reason. Since Shingo had made arrangements, just listen to him - the pudding made by two people will taste better, right?

……

"That guy Shenwu skipped class again this afternoon!"

"Okay, Takeya... according to you, it's not strange for Hoshino-kun to skip class occasionally."

After school, Takeya and Kitahara, who were in the same class, walked together, and even Yisu arrived a step behind.

"So, this is nothing to be surprised about, right?"

"But, even so...that guy dares to say that his academic ability is perfect. Didn't you say that his grades are pretty good? Is there such a genius in this world? He skips classes all day long but gets good grades..."

Wu is also troubled by this.

"When the monthly exam rankings come out, let's see if I don't laugh at him hard."

"Rather than this, you should worry about yourself."

Yisu sighed.

After so many years, she knows very well what Takeya's character is like - this lazy guy can hang his head and stab his buttocks for half a year, so that his grades can barely get enough to enroll in the Mine City Affiliated School, and he can also play so hard that he can't even finish the exam during the exam. The only correct answer on the test paper was my own name.

Judging from the current situation, Wu Ye is obviously in the latter state.

"Fengcheng's monthly exam is not something that can be easily fooled. You should take care of yourself."

"The amount of knowledge in one month is not that big, right?"

Beihara was a little confused. After all, he and Takeya had not known each other for a long time, so it was not surprising that he was confused about the situation now.

"As long as you listen to the class carefully and take some time to review after class, your grades will not be bad no matter what, right?"

"I usually attend classes and take time to review after class..."

Yisu's sigh became heavier.

"Beiyuan, you probably don't know that he will never be able to do such a thing in his life. As for why this guy was able to get into Fengcheng, I can only say... God is not discerning."

"I will also work hard..."

Takeya's defense was quite pale. At this time, the more confused Beihara's eyes looked over him, the deeper the feeling of powerlessness in his heart.

"Takeya, if you need tutoring, I should be able to help you a little bit."

Providing some help to one's friends is a normal thing for Kitahara.Even when faced with anything within his power, he would lend a helping hand as a matter of course.

"In two weeks, as long as you put in 50.00% of your effort when reviewing for the entrance exam, it's not difficult to get good grades... In this way, maybe you can play a little prank on Hoshino-kun as you wish."

"Thinking about it this way... it seems that studying hard is not a bad idea..."

For Takeya, the motivation for learning definitely cannot come from those long-tired preaching or invisible and intangible principles.

"Trick Shingo", something that can make him excited just thinking about it, can cheer him up.

"So, Haruki... please take care of me for the next two weeks."

"Then, let's start today. I know a coffee shop. We can go there together."

Beihara smiled heartily, and he never hesitated to help his friends.

"However, I actually think...it would be better to let Hoshino-kun come with me for tutoring. Seeing his grades getting worse, I don't feel right."

"At least let that guy teach you a lesson!"

Wu also firmly objected.

"Know the shame and then be brave, so that he can study harder."

Volume 73: Chapter 72 Chapter [-] Miso Soup

For Shenwu, most things in this world are not too difficult. He often ignores this, but it is not impossible to remember it.

Occasionally, this would always make him feel a little lucky - like now.

Glancing at the watch on his wrist, it was now more than an hour since Hesha entered the kitchen. He suddenly felt... there was no need to use words like "messy" to describe the mess in front of him. After all, he was the first to start When cooking, it causes irreversible damage to the kitchen.

The most important thing is, no matter what... Hesha is very happy, and the pudding is finally done.

"Then it's just a matter of waiting for the pudding to cool down and then putting it in the refrigerator."

He stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Hesha's cheek, and wiped it with his thumb with a little more force, but the little pudding liquid stuck on it seemed to be smoothed out...

At this point, he has no plans to teach Hesha how to make sugar shells for the time being. It is still too early for Hesha to make syrup.

"Because it was finished earlier today, Kazusa can eat it earlier than usual tonight."

"Anyway, I won't end practice early! Today's practice time is already less than usual, and it's already the limit without saying I have to make up for it!"

Hesha saw through Shingo's little tricks hidden in his words, which made her good mood more colorful, and her tone that should have been angry also took on a sweetness.

"If you want the pudding to cool down quickly, wouldn't you just put it in the refrigerator? Why do you have to wait so long?"

"Well... the temperature of pudding now is much higher than that in the refrigerator. If you put it inside, it will increase the operating load of the refrigerator and the service life of the refrigerator will also be affected."

Rather than scientific truth, this is more like common sense of life passed down orally among family members.

Although he couldn't remember when he knew such a thing, Shingo was extremely sure that this was something Shuichi mentioned to him during a certain chat.

Maybe his grandfather, his father's father, also gave him some advice.Going forward, there may not have been such a conversation, because at that time refrigerators were not yet included in the category of household appliances.

Now, this kind of conversation also happened between me and Hesha. Could this also be... proof that they are "family"?

Shingo thought so, and he felt that he should have the opportunity to tell Kazusa in the future that when cutting vegetables, he should hold his other hand like a cat's paw - Kazusa, who looks like a cat, must be very cute!

"This is what dad told me. Anyway... there won't be any trouble if you just follow it."

"Okay...but we can't forget it."

Kazusa was naturally quite satisfied with the pudding she made. She rubbed the back of her hand on the place that Shingo had rubbed just now, completely unaware that her face had become dirtier.

"Also, don't talk about what will happen if you eat too much cold food... None of your nonsense is true."

Of course Kazusa knew that Shingo's words were not made up, and the reason why he kept nagging was just out of concern for herself - but she did not gain weight and had no health problems, so what could be done about it? Woolen cloth?

As for listening to Shenwu nagging and then complaining every day, this is also a happy thing in life. If Shenwu stops nagging one day, she will not like it. A smart girl will not be confused about this situation.

"Know it……"

Shingo imitated Hesha's usual helpless complaints, and then couldn't help laughing.

Like Hesha, he also enjoyed the daily interactions between the two. After being slapped moderately by Hesha, he continued to speak.

"Hesha go wash your face and practice the piano. I'll clean up a little here, and then I have to start cooking."

"Oh……"

Looking around, Hesha realized that the entire kitchen had undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before she entered.

Shenwu loves to be clean and will only put things in the places she is accustomed to. At this time, both of these are obviously far from his requirements - now it seems that the success that she is proud of has given Shengo It caused considerable trouble.

"I'll help you clean it up too. After all, I made the mess..."

"Don't worry about this..."

Compared with his own personality, a girl's mood is more uncertain. Shingo knows this, but fortunately this time he grasped the reason why Kazusa's mood turned cloudy.

At this time, pinching her cheeks was definitely more important than preaching. As for the stain on her cheeks, it didn't matter if she stayed a little longer.

"Compared to when I first started learning to cook, Hesha was already great just now. Do you remember what I said about almost blowing up the kitchen? This is no exaggeration... At that time, my father asked someone to re-open the kitchen. The kitchen has been renovated.”

"Well……"

Shingo should...not lie, right?

No matter how high her trust in Shingo was, Kazusa's imagination still couldn't simulate the exaggerated scenario of "blowing up the kitchen" in her mind.

She held Shenwu's hand that still hadn't let go of her cheek, and her mood suddenly became complicated - it was a... sweet and mellow mood mixed with sugar, spices, and various magical substances.

"I also want to cook for you, Shingo..."

"Today, can't I eat the pudding that Hesa ​​made for me?"

Shingo's heart trembled.

"Of course, this will only happen if Kazuya is willing to share the pudding with me."

"Wouldn't you always grab my share every time?"

Shenwu would not go out of his way to eat a whole pudding, but he would come over to eat pudding on a whim, sometimes with a spoon, and sometimes... he would bite directly into the pudding on the plate...

Whenever she complained about Shingo, Hesha's eyes would always be filled with light.

"However, what I want to do is not just pudding..."

"Next time, Kazusa, can you try making miso soup?"

Shenwu couldn't figure out why he said such a sentence - an idea came into his mind, and then he blurted it out. It was too difficult to delve into the origin of such a sentence.

Maybe...it's because Kazusa probably doesn't understand?

"Don't think I don't know what you're talking about..."

Hesha's face suddenly turned red. Undoubtedly, this time she was not trying to show off, but... she really understood the special meaning in Shenwu's words that only existed in this country.
