life in the world

Did he forget something important... He tried hard to think, and after a while, he was taken aback——

Diezi hasn't sent him a message through Line for quite a while.

Although this "quite a period of time" was only about five days, it was completely different from the situation in the past where news harassed him almost every day!

He turned over hard, lay on the bed and hugged the phone, unlocked the screen, clicked on the green app, and found the chat conversation on the top.

[Diezi: I really went to have a fellowship~ Hehe, brother, I heard that there is a handsome ace senior from the football club in this fellowship event. 】--Have read

Butterfly guy...

Just looking at the message in black and white on the screen, he could imagine the girl's mischievous tone in his mind, as well as the nasty smirk when she played a prank.

However, after a while of annoyance, he couldn't help sighing.

That's right, he's just a nerdy nerd who can only study hard...

Not to mention comparing it with the sports club, he usually doesn't have a sense of presence in the class.If it weren't for the seniors from the literature club to take care of him, he would be no different from those little transparent girls at the bottom of the school——

He was even bullied at the beginning, because the news of "the senior who is liked by the top beautiful girls in the first grade" was almost spread in the school.

But fortunately, because of his dark nature, even the people who bully him don't think that Diezi would like a nerd like him, so he let him go within a few days.

Sighing again, he looked up and looked at the time in the upper right corner.

July 5 at 4:21.

If it's a holiday, Diezi shouldn't be resting yet, right?

Feeling uneasy, he tried to send a message to the other party.

[Sato: Are you there? 】--unread

After about 1 minute, the unread behind the message finally became read, but...

There was a bitter taste in his mouth——

Before he sent a message to Diezi, the girl almost always replied immediately.

She should be washing at this time, right?It's also possible to be obedient and study hard, right?

He comforted himself a bit, thinking that the so-called "sleep taking" and "falling into a change of heart" in those comics are simply unrealistic.

Diezi hasn't changed for so many years, and she even chased after Tokyo. It's okay for her to persevere a little bit, right?

[Diezi: Are you there? [Maomao tilts its head]]--read

[Diezi: Hmph, so elder brother still remembers a Diezi? 】--Have read

"Ha ha……"

When he saw Diezi's news, the corners of Kaoru Sato's mouth couldn't stop rising.However, he dared not look in the mirror or take a selfie with the front camera of his mobile phone——

He was afraid, afraid to see the bitter smile that he didn't know now.

[Sato: Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry! [Little Man Doxiaza][Little Man Doxiaza][Little Man Doxiaza]]--read

[Diezi: Tch, apology is useful, what should I pay for? [Maomao turns its head]]--read

Do you want compensation...?

He secretly wondered what he could do to compensate the other party, but after much deliberation, even if he bought a Tokyo banana for the other party, his wallet would probably bottom out.

(Tokyo Banana [cake] is the most famous and favorite souvenir for foreign tourists in Tokyo, and it is also the worst souvenir that has been complained about, because the taste is not as good as cakes bought in convenience stores.)

There are too many dinner parties for the seniors!

Thinking of the money paid by the AA system every time, even if the food he ate was really delicious, he would feel distressed when he saw the balance in his wallet afterwards.

[Diezi: The senior from the football club of the other school in the previous social event was very handsome~ He is tall and strong, and he was very attentive and gave me snacks and juice! [Cat on hips]]--read

what the hell!

This so-called cash charge is essentially a scumbag with ulterior motives!

Relying on her excellent appearance and figure, and relying on her name as a member of the sports club, she messes around with men and women...

But... But, Diezi won't be deceived by the other party, right? !

Looking at the last message sent by the girl, his fingers on the virtual keyboard trembled and he couldn't press it no matter what.

He was extremely afraid of receiving an affirmative answer from Diezi after he asked a question.

Chapter 88--The "Fallen" Butterfly

"The guy who sounds like a scumbag didn't treat you..."

Kaoru Sato was halfway through typing, and after hesitating for a moment, he pressed the backspace key on the virtual keyboard with his thumb to delete all the characters in the dialog box.

[Sato: Are you having fun? 】--Have read

【Diezi: Well... [Maomao ponders] Just barely.We don't know how to sing...]--Read

[Diezi: By the way, elder brother is not worried that we will be abducted by the current seniors from other schools? [Maomao is furious and angry]]--read

Seeing the news from Diezi, he couldn't help laughing wryly, and sniffed his slightly pantothenic nose.

How could he not be worried? !

Thinking that the girl might be cheated by a scumbag, her heart felt as if she had been staying up for days and nights in a row, throbbing and at the same time, there was a faint colic.

But...but he didn't dare to ask, didn't dare to explore the truth——

Even though Diezi remained unchanged as before, when he began to doubt the other party, his anxiety would completely erupt like a reservoir bursting its embankment, surging and unstoppable.

[Sato: I believe in Butterfly [-]%! [Thumbs up]]--read

[Diezi: [Cat on hips]! 】--Have read

It's just as cute as before.

He couldn't help but think of Diezi when he was a child. The girl at that time joked about his cowardice with her arms crossed triumphantly because she succeeded in playing tricks on him with insects.

【Diezi: So what do you want me to do at this late hour? 】--Have read

Shall I send out an invitation?

Mingming clicked on the chat dialogue to say hello with enthusiasm, but now that he was about to say the invitation, he encountered difficulties again.

He, Kaoru Sato was really dissatisfied with his cowardice and indecision. After he clenched his fist and smashed the bed twice to vent his depression, he took a deep breath and slowly tapped the virtual keyboard on the screen.

[Sato: Butterfly, are you free tomorrow? [Smiley face]]--read

[Diezi: No time!Do you want to go on a date with a handsome scumbag?~】--read

"..."

Butterfly guy!

Is she more relaxed and mischievous than before?

He was thinking a little annoyed, always feeling that this younger sister-like childhood sweetheart was exactly the same as before, and it seemed that something had changed unknowingly.

However, Diezi has been very naughty since she was a child, right?

Just as he was meditating and recalling, the phone vibrated again, indicating that he had just received a new message——

[Bie Zi: I lied to you~ [Anthropomorphic cat hugs her chest] Elder brother didn't reply for so long, did he faint from anger?If you don't reply to the message again, we will call 119 to help you call an ambulance! 】--Have read

【Sato: [Blushes and gets angry]!Don't make such a joke!Butterfly, you must stay away from those ghosts, they have super chaotic relationships between men and women!Doing something unforgivable to you, a scumbag who abandons you after getting tired of playing, this kind of situation is very common now! [Pink Rabbit Beats White Cat]]--read

【Diezi: Got it, got it, I think it's okay...Brother, you started nagging and preaching again, don't talk about what you need to find us, let's put on a mask and go to sleep! 】--Have read

[Sato: The teacher of the cram school took leave on the last day, and the dinner with the seniors was canceled due to an accident... If Diezi is free tomorrow, do you want to hang out together? 】--Have read

After finally conveying the invitation to Diezi, he stared at the chat record closely, his heart beating violently as if he had just finished running 1000 meters in physical education class.

[Biezi: How about meeting at the station next to the school at nine o'clock? [Maomao tilts its head]]--read

[Sato: Good!See you soon, good night! 】--Have read

【Diezi: Good night~】--read

"Yahhoo!!!"

Kaoru Sato jumped up from the bed excitedly, clenched his fists vigorously and waved, shouting out extremely excited congratulations.

Diezi's agreement to hang out together is certainly the reason that makes him happy, but more importantly, it is the persistence and fact that the girl's heart has not changed even though there are some differences.

Although mischievous and self-willed, her personality is a bit bad, but compared to Ohara-senpai's girlfriend who often gets into trouble and throws a tantrum, Diezi is really reassuring.

He thought to himself, as long as he preaches in time and urges her to correct her bad and self-willed character, Diezi will definitely be the most perfect girl in the world!

Crackling.

Opening the sliding door of the balcony, he leaned on the chest-high guardrail, looked up from the gap between the two apartment buildings, and looked at the long and narrow night sky whitened by the city lights.

Where are you going to play with Diezi tomorrow?

What should I eat for dinner?

When he was having dinner with Senpai Xiaoyuan before, the other party's words of complaining about his girlfriend's troubles suddenly sounded in his heart——

It is still spring, and Chidorigafuchi in Chiyoda seems to be a very good spot for cherry blossom viewing?

I heard from the senior that Chidorigafuchi can also rent a boat to go boating on the river and enjoy cherry blossoms on the water... Girls should like it! ?

Thinking about it, the happy time when I was a child going up the mountain and down the river with Diezi appeared in front of my eyes. This fresh memory feels like yesterday. laugh.

How long has it been since I met Diezi?

At 12:53 in the morning, he, Kaoru Sato, tossed and turned in the bed, disturbed by the sense of anticipation and excitement, unable to sleep, as if dozens of small people were holding a concert and playing a symphony in his head.

Sometimes it is a familiar ode to joy, sometimes it is an unknown tune that I can’t remember when I heard it——

Finally, when the concert was about to end, amidst the faint sadness of Chopin's Nocturne, the influx of drowsiness gradually hypnotized him and made him fall into a sweet dreamland.

Butterfly... please wait a little longer... wait for me to study hard... wait for me to be admitted to Dongda University, wait for me to stand out...

?

Believe it [-]%...?

She, Sifang Butterfly, looked at the news from her elder brother Kaoru Sato, and felt as if she accidentally ate a lime slice in a tempura platter. The extremely sour taste flooded her mouth, and her throat felt as if she had been choking all day long. It was burning like a fire without drinking water, and it was so thirsty that it could not make a sound.

I'm sorry bro...

Thinking of getting up that morning, I couldn't help kissing Harutaki-san, recalling the "date" I went to Shibuya that day, letting the boy walk through the street holding my hand——

If it was just two "dates" between Starbucks and DUMBO DONUTS, she could still argue that she was only a little interested in Harutaki-san, but she couldn't refuse her classmate's invitation out of etiquette...

Even after Harutaki-san rescued her from Wakitani-senpai, that scumbag in a karaoke fellowship event, she, Sifang Butterfly, can comfort herself. Her heartbeat and complicated emotions towards boys all stem from being rescued Gratitude and the fear of being killed...

However, when she woke up at classmate Yu Chunlong's house and found herself lying on the boy's bed, and was threatened by him to rape her, she really couldn't hold on any longer.

Brother, I'm sorry... Butterfly is going to become unclean...

She, Sifang Diezi's first time can't be left to the boy she likes most...

But as Harutaki-san didn't make a move for a long time, she gradually recovered from the panic and reacted——

The humorous, handsome and intelligent boy in front of him may not be a "scumbag" as rumored.

The worries about the uniform being replaced in the future, and the uneasiness about the so-called "threatening photos" that Harutaki-san said, all turned into foam the moment she looked at the vanity mirror in the bathroom.

Crackling.

The foam exploded like firecrackers set off to celebrate the New Year.

However, these "firecrackers" are definitely not celebrating the New Year, but her trust and longing for Harutaki.

The delicious food I ate not long ago poured into my mind from the tip of my tongue, as if the joy and happiness of all the cells in my body were cheering, instantly filling the void after the fear disappeared.

Then when the whole person was soaked in the warm hot water, the joy of surviving after the catastrophe, as well as the guilt for ignoring Harutaki's warning and doubting the other's character, came suddenly and suddenly like the heavy rain in summer out of hand.

In the end, when he said "It is because I like you that I respect you", she had to face the reality and admit that the other party had shaken the statue of elder brother standing in her heart.

If she, Sifang Buteko's expectation and longing for her elder brother Kaoru Sato can be realized in her imagination, it will be Yggdrasil, the world tree in myths and legends.

The elder brother who played and played pranks with her since she was a child is the sacred tree that props up a world for the butterfly in her heart.

As for Harutaki, the "scumbag" who became famous in the school within a month - Xingchuan Harutaki, he is Surtur, the broken branch that ignited the World Tree, and the entwined Levatin of Red Flame.

His tenderness, his thoughtfulness, and every concern he had for her turned into little sparks, constantly eroding and burning the deep-rooted roots of the world tree.

"You're too cunning and shrewd, Harutaki-san..."
