"Next time you encounter problems that you can't solve, you can ask me for help," he said.

"Yeah." Yukino didn't explain.

The two walked to the stairs.

"I don't want to be a liar. At least on some agreements, I want to do it."

Yukino knew what agreement he was talking about.

I also know that he is blaming himself.

"Where did you put your phone?"

Xia Shi was outmaneuvered by her.

But he remained calm: "Beside me."

Yukino looked at his profile suspiciously, "It doesn't feel like a lie."

“When I can find a way to solve a problem myself, I will,” she explained.

Even if she had to involve others, she didn't want to drag Xia Shi into it.

As a teacher, Hiratsuka-sensei has the right to command students to ensure the normal operation of the cultural festival, so it is normal to send her a request for help. However, as a member of the committee, Natsumi is different. Under normal circumstances, even if he coordinates with the couple to reconcile... it may be okay on the surface, but it is not surprising that rumors will be spread behind the scenes.

Yukino has a lot of experience with this, as a victim.

but……

Combining what happened just now, Yukino realized that she was wrong.

In this matter, Xia Shi's members were not victims but perpetrators.

He seemed to have a good relationship with the student council, and I already knew about his relationship with Kirisu-sensei, but what about the others? How did he know the light music club? After the meeting, why did the baseball club member who was arm in arm with him have such a good relationship with him?

Yukino suddenly realized that she didn't understand him, or rather, she didn't understand his social circle.

I only understand him himself, his soul.

But is it enough to just understand his soul?

"That's enough," Yukino was sure.

"When I encounter difficulties and I can't handle it no matter what... I will ask you for help." Yukino stopped.

Xia Shi also slowly stopped on the steps.

Look back.

The light above her head illuminated her black hair. She should have been as radiant as a god, but at this moment, her delicate and fair face was slightly misty.

"And when both of us are at our wits' end, let's run away together to the ends of the earth."

His god gave the order.

Suwako had issued numerous orders within a year, and Xia Shi thought he had already adapted to it and could even face them with a smile.

but……

The words of the Snow Country God were heavier than he had imagined.

"The end of the world?" Xia Shi looked up at her.

"Go to the southernmost tip of the south, the northernmost tip of the north..." Xueno explained: "When the boredom of life cannot be solved, let's go find poetry and distant places."

“I hope that day won’t come.”

"Hmm?" Yukino looked at him curiously, waiting for his answer.

"I'm afraid of the cold." Xia Shi said helplessly.

"If you go to Hokkaido, you'll catch a cold."

Yukino's shoulders trembled slightly, but in the end she couldn't help but laughed out loud.

"Hmm~"

Pause for a few seconds...

"Well... I hope that day won't come." Xue No said gently, "If the cat at home gets sick, I'll be very worried."

"Well, health is the most important!" Xia Shi nodded seriously.

He will keep his owner's words in mind!

Chapter 196 Shelter from the Rain

At the shoe cabinet, Xia Shi changed his shoes and picked up an umbrella.

Yukino also held up an umbrella, a black umbrella with a cat's paw pattern printed on it.

When I walked out of the teaching building, there were almost no people.

Although the campus is open all day during the Cultural Festival, it is only the first day, so not many people will stay or even stay overnight. In the last few days, some classes will work like crazy to meet a deadline, and some classrooms can still be seen with bright lights even late at night.

Xia Shi saw more than one class doing this during last year's cultural festival.

Slacking off in the first week and trying to create miracles in the last few days, maybe this is human laziness.

After walking out of the school gate, Yukino was picked up by Yangno. The other party had a wary expression on her face, which made Xia Shi a little confused.

She seemed to have a deep misunderstanding of herself. Even after talking for such a long time yesterday, Xia Shi still couldn't understand her thoughts.

It doesn’t matter if I go back alone, at least Xia Shi won’t feel lonely or bored.

He actually thought about going home with Eriri, but unfortunately they were going in different directions, so they could only walk together for a dozen minutes at most. And she also had activities in the art club, which would take longer than the service club, so they couldn't spend time together.

Keima, who could have gone back together, has also been working hard on that crappy game from the gaming club. I heard that the game has evolved into version 2.0 with his improvements, and has recently added a mode where you can play the male protagonist and conquer girls. I don't know if I'll have the chance to experience it during the cultural festival.

Taking small steps forward in the rain, the rain lowered the temperature which had been getting hotter recently, making us feel much more comfortable.

From the side wall of the campus, you can see the huge cherry tree on the playground. Even though it is not in full bloom, it is still eye-catching.

Walk down the slope for a while.

"Boom~"

The tram made a grunting sound along the track, and Xia Shi squinted his eyes as the strong wind blew.

In the blurred vision, a white object floated into the sky.

The whistling sound in my ears stopped.

On the other side of the track, a young girl stretched out her right hand and looked up at the white umbrella slowly falling from the sky.

The umbrella floated in the breeze, drifted across the railroad tracks, and ran towards the boy.

Xia Shi controlled the object-controlling technique and made it move closer to him.

The girl in uniform followed the umbrella in the air with her eyes, and when she turned around, she saw Xia Shi.

Xia Shi walked across the track and handed over the umbrella that he had folded naturally.

"Thank you." Kato Megumi bowed slightly, her short black hair was wet by the rain.

"You're welcome." Xia Shi smiled, "How can we meet at this time? Kato-san also lives nearby?"

As he spoke, he moved his umbrella closer to her, waiting for her to open it.

"Well, it's not far from the school." Kato Megumi tried to open the umbrella, but unfortunately there seemed to be something wrong.

She whispered, "The umbrella seems to be broken."

It was probably the wind just now.

"If it's not far..." Xia Shi tried, "I can take you back."

Kato Hui fixed her wet bangs and looked up at him, "Won't that be a bother?"

"Well, if we're nearby, it won't take much time." Xia Shi felt that he had used too much force in his object control technique just now, so he felt a little guilty.

If you break someone else's umbrella, you have to compensate them.

It’s not nice to let girls go back in the rain.

"Well, it seems there is no other way." Xiaohui's words were a little flat.

She didn't want to catch a cold either.

As for whether going back with Xia Shi would be seen by others and then rumors would spread... she had not considered this question.

Kato Megumi has a clear awareness of her own existence.

When Xia Shi heard her answer, he couldn't figure out what she was thinking, so he assumed that she agreed.

When we reached the train station, Kato pointed to another road.

Xia Shi turned in silence.

There was no topic between the two of them, and it seemed that they only talked for a few sentences, and that was in the library.

In the classroom, everyone sits far away from each other, so there is even less communication.

Walking on the narrow roads in the residential area, the only sound we could hear was each other's breathing.

Suddenly, a bicycle passed by, shouting in a hurry.

"You two! Make way!"

Xia Shi protected Kato behind him, and when he saw the figure driving quickly without even a raincoat disappear from his sight, he couldn't help but sigh.

"He rides a bicycle on a rainy day without a raincoat. I hope the disease will come to him soon." Xia Shi cursed viciously as he looked at his half-wet shirt.

Kato was surprisingly understanding: "Maybe you just didn't bring a raincoat, but you'll probably catch a cold if you keep looking like this."

There was no fluctuation in her voice when she spoke, which frightened Xia Shi a little.

"Kato-san unexpectedly holds a grudge."

Xiao Hui said calmly: "I am very careful."

"Girls like to hold grudges. They can remember a small thing for a long time." Xia Shi took the opportunity to complain.

"Xia Shi, I'm a girl too. I would be angry if you said that." Xiao Hui said calmly.

Xia Shi said awkwardly, "I'm sorry."

The two continued walking for a few minutes.

Kato Hui glanced at his uniform, which was already half wet, "Clothes, is there any problem?"

"Not bad." Xia Shi pulled at his clothes, feeling like he could wring water out of them.

But I am in good health, so I don’t have to worry about catching a cold.

"We have a dryer at home." Xiao Hui thought for a moment and invited, "Xia Shi, you can dry your clothes before you leave."

"..." Xia Shi refused: "Going to a girl's house... isn't it a good idea?"

"If Xia Shi caught a cold, I would feel guilty." Kato Megumi said expressionlessly, "After all, it was me who didn't hold the umbrella, and Xia Shi helped me pick it up and was willing to send me back. It's just a small matter, it doesn't matter."

She probably thought the same thing as she said.

Xia Shi could refuse again: "Sorry to bother you then."

"You're welcome."

After walking for nearly ten minutes, the two stopped in front of a two-story residential house.

There were some flowers planted in the small courtyard in front of the house. While waiting for her to open the door, Xia Shi held an umbrella and felt a little bored. Fortunately, this time did not last long.

Pushing the door open, Kato Hui made an invitation to him, "Natsumi-kun, come in."

"Well, thank you." Xia Shi closed the umbrella, walked into the house, and then put it in the umbrella stand.

The house was very quiet and there was no sound. Kato's parents should not be at home.

This made Xia Shi feel relieved.

He was just thinking about what attitude he should use to face the other party's parents.

Fortunately.

"Natsumi-san, indoor shoes~" Kato Megumi rummaged around and took out a pair of new shoes and handed them over.

Pink... kind of cute.
