Although she was somewhat sleepy, the girl with dog eyes still said after yawning:

"I'll just take a nap and you guys can chat about whatever you want."

"Hey, there's nothing to talk about anymore, I want to go home too."

Gently shaking the key in his hand, Mochizuki, who had to go home to take a shower and draw after exercising, replied calmly:

"Since Takegami-san is a little tired, Sakuraba-sama should send her home first - I still have things to do, I have to have a meal with my friends and welcome the new semester."

"That's it~"

Seeing Mochizuki's expressionless but very logical explanation of the situation, Sakuraba Risa, who understood Mochizuki's true identity, also smiled softly at this moment:

"Then, let's see you at the beginning of school. Remember to have a good rest, don't stay up late all the time, and exercise more... Well, speaking of which, this is the first time I know that you have the habit of exercising."

"Back to Sister Sakuraba, although I am a loner, I also have my own living habits and exercise plans."

"...You are really much stronger than I thought, Mochizuki."

Saying this with great satisfaction, Teacher Sakuraba's lips curved into a gentle smile.

"Thank you sister for the compliment, I will try my best to go further."

"Come on."

Gently patting the young man's shoulder, the people's teacher prepared to leave with his sleepy, bubble-eyed niece.

And under such circumstances, Mochizuki did not forget to bow:

"Sister Sakuraba, walk slowly. Oh, by the way, you drank the drink I bought you this time. When school starts, can you be accommodating to me if I skip classes or sleep?"

"Don't even think about it."

Repliing this skillfully, Risa Sakuraba drove her little Toyota and flew away in the dust.

In all directions, only Mochizuki Ri, whose face was covered in black lines, was left.

........

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, the entire Toyama City was dyed with night ink, and the silent chirping of cicadas sounded outside the window and floated on the streets of the small town.

After catching up on her sleep, Takegami Kasumi put on her knee pads, put on a small helmet, and started skating on the pulley to find her friend.

Although he is always sleepy, looks dull, and always gives people a feeling of lack of energy - Kasumi Takegami actually has quite a lot of physical strength and excellent motor skills. There is no violation even if he joins the track and field club training. feel.

It is also because of this that the girl can travel around the whole town just by relying on the pulley - there is no need for extremely poor means of transportation such as motorcycles and batteries.

"...I wonder if Xiao Saki is okay after the summer vacation."

Gently skating, the girl with dog eyes began to think of her friend who, although always sitting in a wheelchair, was far more virtuous than ordinary people.

Although we talk on the phone every day, play games together, and often make video calls...but after all, it has been a while since we last met. Kasumi Takegami is still a little nervous and looking forward to meeting Kurihara Saki again. of.

After arriving at the destination and unpacking her equipment, the girl with dog eyes jumped to the door of Kurihara's house.

Kurihara knocked lightly on the door. She originally thought it might take a while for her friend to slide the wheelchair to open the door, but contrary to the girl's expectation, the door of Kurihara's house opened quickly——

And the person who opened the door made Xiao Chengzi's expression fade:

"...Mochizuki-san?"

"Takegami-san?"

10. I just care a little bit. 1/2 Please collect it!

The unexpected encounter made the boys and girls feel a little embarrassed.

As if to confirm something, Mochizuki Ri, who was staying at Kurihara's house and preparing to celebrate the good results of "She Was Alive" with Kurihara Saki, was the first to ask at this moment:

"Although it's rude to ask this... But Takegami-san, didn't you go to a friend's house for dinner today?"

"That's right, so I'm here."

With a calm face, the girl with dog eyes narrowed her eyes slightly:

"So...Mochizuki-san, aren't you also eating with your friends?"

"Yes......."

"Are our friends the same?"

"It seems so."

This time, both of them were silent.

"...It's really strange. Kurihara-san never told me that there is another guest tonight."

"Me too."

The dog-eyed girl responded with a hint of gossip in her expression:

"It seems that Mochizuki-san is not going to be with Saki-"

"No, we are just neighbors and ordinary friends."

It has appeared, and it is so classic that it can no longer be classic and proves itself.

"...I'll just trust Mochizuki-san for now."

Realizing that he was kept in the dark, Takegami Kasumi could only sigh, put his little feet into his slippers, and slowly walked into the room.

"........."

Seeing the girl's subtle expression and vague suspicion about herself, the boy who was just about to go downstairs to buy a drink to celebrate the new song with Saki Kurihara was also stunned at this moment.

So.......need to buy an extra bottle of drink now?

Let's go back and ask the rich lady Kurihara for reimbursement.

Mochizuki, who was responsible for paying for groceries and running errands, thought as he looked at his shriveled wallet that was originally full of change.

Mochizuki turned left when he went out and started running errands.

Kasumi Takegami rubbed her short, fluffy hair and walked to the kitchen step by step. She looked at her friend wearing an apron, seemingly clumsy but practical but skillful in cooking, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"Yeah, here comes Little Orange."

Looking at Xiaozhu wearing bubble socks and walking towards him step by step, the unsmiling wheelchair girl also smiled like a flower at this moment:

"Long time no see - you seem to have a rounder face."

"It's not good to tell your friend that he's fat."

While pouting his lips pretending to be unhappy, Takegami Kasumi's eyebrows relaxed slightly:

"...Long time no see. It seems you are still in good spirits."

"Haha, after all, there is a guy who looks like a primary school boy living next door. I can always look after him if anything happens - and he is terrible at playing games, so I like to look to him for confidence."

"I see......."

Nodding slightly, Takegami Kasumi suddenly understood.

(......Mochizuki-san is really Saki-chan's neighbor.)

The thought that Japan is really small once again rose in the mind of the girl with dog eyes.

And it was at the moment when Takegami Kasumi was thinking this way that Kurihara Saki also asked as he rocked his wheelchair:

"By the way, have you met Mochizuki-san? Although he looks dull, he is actually a very different person."

"...I can see it."

Recalling the situation some time ago when Mochizuki and her aunt held a pocky and touched her solemnly as if they were begging for help, Takegami Kasumi couldn't help but sweat.

This guy is really a mysterious person from the very core...

Of course, Kurihara Saki didn't pay attention to what his friends around him were thinking.

She just looked at the cake in the oven, and like a gentle mother, she introduced her unrelated child to her friends:

"Although he is occasionally stupid and philistine, he still has some talent...I don't know if that's right."

Having said that, Kurihara Saki did not go any further.

She understands that Mochizuki doesn't like people in real life knowing her true identity - as a partner, Kurihara Saki respects the boy's own will and stops at the point without overextending it.

Obviously, Takegami Kasumi, who has never liked to delve too deeply into certain things, also nodded lightly at this moment:

"I see... Is Saki-chan falling in love with Mochizuki-san?"

"No."

Kurihara Saki's voice was quite loud, and she noticed that her dog-eyed friend next to her seemed to be smelling something, and her eyes were a little dodgey:

"We are ordinary friends, and we may have some other interests..."

"...so mysterious."

Takegami Kasumi complained:

"Are you an underground FBI agent?"

"You can understand that."

"...So, why didn't Saki-chan just tell me that Mochizuki-san was also eating here? This made everyone feel a little embarrassed."

"Hey, didn't I say that?"

Kurihara Saki tilted his head, his bright red eyes turning slightly, as if he was thinking about something——

After thinking carefully, the virtuous wheelchair girl, who had always been single-minded, nodded unconsciously:

"Oh... I seem to have indeed forgotten to tell you two. My schedule seems to be a bit chaotic recently, and I have forgotten many things. I'm sorry."

"...Saki-chan is still a little out of touch as always."

Kasumi Takegami held her forehead, with a hint of speechlessness on her expression.

"I'm not a pig, don't judge me like that."

"Okay, okay, understand, understand~"

She shrugged softly, and the dog-eyed girl's voice sounded as always:

"Although it's a bit unexpected, it doesn't matter if there is one more person to eat with. After all, Mochizuki-san is quite handsome and has a feminine feel."

"Wang Yue? Judging by his appearance, he is indeed quite feminine, but he exercises on his own every day, and even rides his bicycle around the whole town by himself after class."

"I've already witnessed this..."

Kasumi Takegami, who would never forget the sight of Mochizuki riding a mountain bike, couldn't help but shrugged:

"Okay, okay... By the way, Mr. Slothfish has released a new song. Did Saki-chan listen to it?"

"Oh...well, yes, yes."

As one-half of the sloth fish, Kurihara Saki nodded mechanically:

"It's really good. I feel inexplicably happy with it."

"It is indeed the case......."

Girls are girls after all, and when they talk about their favorite idols, their eyes always sparkle.

Gently sliding the phone, putting the earphones in his and Ogurihara's ears, Takegami Kasumi clicked on play, and the music software played a snippet of Sloth Fish's new song "She Used to Live":

(She lived, she lived, she also lived,)

(When a new beginning comes,)

(Maybe you just want to make yourself disappear,)

(What does it mean to "seize the moment and live a wonderful life",)

(Just nice words, that’s all)

(Take all your courage,)

(She leaps across the sky,)

(Become a bird and catch the clouds,)
