After lunch, Ayakoji Kiyotaka parted ways with the three of them and chose to go back to the classroom, while Xia Ming and the three of them walked in the campus where the temperature was gradually rising, digesting the food in their stomachs.

Passing by the shore where I met last night, Horikita Lingyin subconsciously glanced at Xia Ming’s band-aid hand. Unfortunately, the trace that pleased her was no longer visible. Not only that, but also another one. Hold tightly with one hand.

Pursing her mouth, she spoke subconsciously, looking for the topic: "Unexpectedly, he agreed like this. You really have a way to deal with that kind of gloomy person."

"Um?"

Xia Ming, who was enjoying the leisurely time, was taken aback, and immediately reacted: "You are talking about classmate Ling Xiaolu."

He smiled slightly and continued: "He just looks a little gloomy, in fact, um...his mind, even I don't understand."

Horikita Lingyin squinted at him: "You don't know how to read minds, you really think you can see everyone through?"

Xia Ming laughed blankly: "Well, that's right, don't say he doesn't touch him very often. Even you are a little bit beyond my expectation. You grow up very fast, ring tone."

This is both a joke and the truth. A month ago, Horikita Lingyin didn't easily figure it out by himself, and then chose to compromise. Xia Ming, who had just contacted her at that time, suffered a lot.

"Are you complimenting this?"

Horikita Ringtone was a little speechless.

"Of course, I am complimenting you sincerely."

Xia Ming said amusedly: "What? Do you still want to receive any practical praise before you are willing to believe it?"

"Practical?"

Horikita Lingyin glanced at Karuizawa Megumi, who was on the other side of Xia Ming, who had been watching the sea. He muttered in his heart, what else could you do with her?

"Here, over there."

Xia Ming blinked, and snorted to a place not far away.

There?

Horikita Lingyin looked at it with some doubts...

"..."

……vending machine?

There was a delicate girl in her heart, and her mouth twitched.

Xia Ming's eyes rolled: "You just stay here and don't walk around, I'll buy a can of drinks and come back."

"Ah, I will buy Hui's share too."

After speaking with a smile, Xia Ming walked in the direction of the vending machine with a relaxed and happy pace.

"..."

Seeing Xia Ming's back, Horikita Lingyin rolled her eyes. She really didn't know "Back"?

"Horikita."

Just as Horikita Suzune was wondering whether to use a compass that had been hidden in the snow for a long time, Karuizawa Megumi on the side suddenly called her.

"Um?"

Horikita Lingyin let out a faint question. If I remember correctly, this is the first time Karuizawa Megumi and Xia Ming have spoken to himself.

"I am actually a very active person, whether it is in junior high school or now..."

Um? What is she trying to say? Horikita Ringtone was a little puzzled.

Karuizawa Megumi's gaze was a bit trance, but she was very focused. Looking at Xia Ming who was going away, her whisper was clearly audible: "...but, in junior high school...something happened. Great things... well, those are all over."

Karuizawa’s junior high school took the initiative to make friends, take the initiative to build a good relationship with the teacher, and take the initiative to become a topic-centered figure. Then, she gained the trust of her classmates and the praise of her teacher. For a junior high school girl with normal personality, These can be said to be too sweet fruit.

This made her heart warm and joyous.

She didn't want anything else, she just wanted to taste this beautiful and eye-catching feeling, which made her excited almost every day, until she ate the worms in the fruit.

She didn't dare to tell her classmates about being bullied, because she was still immature, and only thought that when her classmates knew about her, she would look at her with strange eyes. The indescribable strange gaze hadn't really appeared. I was scared by my own imagination.

So she took the initiative to find teachers and parents, hoping to get help from her elders, and then this time, she ate the rotten side of the fruit.

After that, she savored the sweetness and stench every day until the cut...

——After that, the scar became her taboo and the motivation for her to change. Therefore, she came to this school. This time, she still chose to take the initiative, but she had to become more proactive, she had to take the initiative To show a strong side, everyone dare not bully her.

This change allowed her to taste the sweetness of the fruit again.

And then she did it again

——Taste the bitter taste.

The demon with gleaming eyes exposed her past to nothing. Her handle was held by the demon, and she would become a string puppet with nothing...

...Just when she thought about it, the devil faded its hideousness and replaced it with a gentle appearance.

This made her stunned.

Then, exhausted by the two contrasts between the past and the present, she easily fell.

It doesn't matter what sweetness or smell is, she already hates the smells day after day.

demon? That's not important, Xia Ming is not ugly at all.

Lie? It doesn't matter, Xia Ming doesn't like lying.

Most importantly, her heart felt it again

-That kind of warm feeling.

The same initiative, the same sweetness and bitterness, but this time, the bitter taste is replaced by warmth before it can be swallowed.

So in front of Xia Ming, she wanted to give it a try, give it a try—

With a well-behaved and docile personality, will you taste that warm feeling again?

——Yes, this kind of feeling, this kind of feeling, it's hot, and it feels like a trembling heart.

Karuizawa Megumi enjoys the feeling of being in a hot spring. She is very happy and loves Xia Ming.

but……

"...Those things from the past, I don't want to mention them in front of a second person who doesn't know, but now..."
