Chapter 17: However, Ichi-shimi does not admit defeat easily1

In the early morning, the sun, which never slackens, appeared on the horizon on time, announcing a cruel truth to all those who live in the city: the short rest day has passed, and the busy time will last for more than six days from today. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoI'm going to go back to my old life – home, school, her place.

Thinking back to what happened yesterday, just one day of events makes me feel like a few years have passed, probably, people often say that life is like a year is the feeling I have now, forcing myself to think about the things that I don't want to face the most, and I can't get an answer that satisfies everyone in a short time, even ten minutes can become a long time, this point, the genius scientist Albert Einstein's theory of relativity has already explained everything to me... Why do I have to think about so many questions that I shouldn't want to know and don't want to know?

In addition to the questions that have been clearly explained, the questions from yesterday from Isshiki summarize roughly what remains to be resolved: first, why such a request was suddenly made on a Sunday two weeks after that incident. Second, as far as I know, Isshiki doesn't like to play video games, especially those difficult things, which can be said to be annoying, but he stayed in that arcade for nearly two hours, and there are obviously many places to go - movie theaters and cafes and things like that would be better. Thirdly, and most puzzlingly, what does Isshiki mean by the last sentence?

If the first point is based on the time factor, I can barely say that it is in the past, after all, not everyone can have a full day every Sunday like I do. The second point can also be attributed to the sudden idea, and then in the spirit of not admitting defeat, it makes sense, I also have the experience of playing word solitaire games directly at the temple fair alone on a whim, until the end and I don't want to admit defeat. So.... The rest can be said to be a matter of Isshiki's choice?To be honest, I still can't believe that Isshiki would say such a thing.,Besides,The object is still me.,If it's Hayama, it's probably acceptable.... I'm self-aware.,I don't blindly think that I can really face Hayama in terms of favorability.,He's simply an overwhelming existence.,I've been aiming for Hayama since I met Isshiki.,But.... I admit that I was shaken, and I suddenly felt the urge to go to Hayama for verification.

Quietly looked at Hayama's side, because it's a lunch break and now his table has been fenced, it's still very lively, even Miura, who used to be sad for him, is now back to normal, I think, no one can resist Hayama, who apologizes seriously, although I don't want to admit that this is also his charm, Yubihama also joined the group, and it naturally blended in, judging from the chuckle that came out, it seems that she is talking to Miura about something interesting, but she seems to have noticed my gaze, and looked back, I hurriedly withdrew my gaze, and now I have no reason to disturb them。

[Hah....] Sighing softly, I put everything out of my mind, now is the time for the meal, looking at the brown box in front of me, and remembering the words that I repeated all the way under the snow when we parted this morning, "You must finish the bento well".... Actually, I wouldn't have said I would have done it, and of course, that's what makes her so cute.

I opened the lunch box and took a look, hmm..... It's familiar..... A bad feeling slowly spread in my heart. It's not the usual pastries or something.... Looking at this pile of bright red things, my first impression was that it looked very similar to the hellish curry I ate at that restaurant yesterday at noon, and it did look very similar in terms of color and surface ingredients. But.... Probably not, right? You can perfectly replicate it after just one meal, a skill that even international chefs can't have....... I'm still a little weak-hearted.

When I picked up the chopsticks from the corner of the lunch box, I saw a small white... The note was pressed under the chopsticks, and it was left under the snow....

"Special super spicy chicken curry, Hachiman-kun, as a punishment for last night, please be sure to eat it all, and you must do what you promised. ”

..... Rejection of the preface! It's not cute at all! Who can eat this thing?!Is it the devil?

I held my chopsticks and hovered over the lunch box, constantly hesitating.... Do you want to eat it? Do you really want to eat it? What will happen if you don't eat it? It shouldn't be worse than eating it, right? But you shouldn't be so ruthless under the snow to let out that kind of spicy taste, right?

[I started....] After hesitating for a while, I was ready to go... What I promise must be done well, this is one of my principles of life, even if it is deceived.

Just as I was about to come to my senses and die again, a small head covered with flaxen-colored hair suddenly appeared in front of my vision, with a faint smell of Chanel perfume, and the slender strands of hair hung down to cover the desperate box of curry rice.

[Ah, scared me] almost threw the chopsticks out of his hand, but he still leaned back against the chair, making a "creaking" swaying sound.

[Hehe, good morning, senior.] Isseki sniffed lightly on it with her little nose, stood up straight, greeted me with a hearty smile, and looked at me with big watery eyes that shone with an unpredictable light.

After seeing the person clearly, I breathed a sigh of relief

[That... Isshiki-san?]

[What's the matter?] ]

[I'm supposed to be asking for this sentence, right?, and it's not good to disturb other people's meals]

When did this guy come to me? I didn't even notice it... But the strangest thing now is why she's in this classroom and still in front of me. [Hah... What's the matter with you....] Anyway, as long as Ichisei appears, it means trouble, and before I know it, I've equated her with trouble.

Isshiki didn't answer my question immediately, but kept spinning her little head, looking around for something, and after a few seconds, she sat down in the empty seat in front of my desk, put her index finger against her chin, leaned forward slightly, and narrowed the distance between me and asked in a low voice

[Senior, why did you eat a bento here alone?]

[Hmm...] This person... I'm notoriously boring, with a very low sense of presence, and zero friends in the class. It would be nice to be able to eat a bento quietly by yourself...] Is it really wrong to eat a bento in the classroom?

[Ah...] She tilted her head slightly, thinking about something—that simple, small head.

[Let's go.] With that, he stood up and pulled on my cuffs and prepared to go out.

With a little force, I broke free of her hand, put the chopsticks back in the lunch box, and looked at her in confusion. Looking at this thing in front of him in embarrassment, although it was very tangled, he said firmly.

[Hawkers,It's a little bit of a thing.,Seniors just follow honestly] Because of the relationship that I broke free.,'Isshi's expression became a little unhappy.,Slightly puffed out of the face [If you have a bento, you can eat it at any time.,Anyway, this is done by the seniors under the snow, even if you lose one or two, it doesn't matter.。 ]

[It's too big to lose!] Since I know that she did it, I really admire you for daring to say such dangerous things, have you forgotten her horror? No, it's five or more of this stuff, if the snow knows that I've lost my bento... Then... It's time for the end to come.

Seeing my expression so determined, I showed a little surprise, but in an instant, she hid it again, crossed her hands and hugged her chest and continued.

[Hmph.... Okay, just bring your bento. First of all, if my seniors don't come with me today, I'll be here for class!]

Threat... Naked threats,It's all said to this extent, do I have a choice?Although Isseki doesn't have much patience, he can exert an unusually big determination in many boring things.,I don't dare to let her really stay here for class.... Ay... I sighed helplessly, slowly put away the lunch, stood up, and looked at the still lively Hayama.... I'm completely aware of it... It's surrounded by people, and the sight is naturally blocked.,So I didn't find the uninvited guest from beginning to end.。 I wish she had come to Hayama... One of the last people you want to face right now.

After watching me stand up with my lunch, Ichiseki looked happy again

[Let's go, senior!hehe.] He came over and grabbed my wrist and walked out together in a state of great reluctance.
