Chapter 18: Rejection

Of course, although I don't want to give Haruki Kitahara more opportunities to harass Kogi's seniors, it is not a wise choice to directly oppose Haruki Kitahara in front of his seniors. If I nakedly shouted something like "Don't harass Kogi Senpai" to Kitahara Senpai in front of my seniors, then within a day, the rumors that a bad freshman in a certain grade and a good student in the third grade who were excellent in character and academics might be jealous for Yukina Kogi might spread. This is not only not good for my reputation in school, but also affects the influence of my seniors.

So,At this time, I can only ask Fuyuma and Sa-san, who just kicked Kitahara-senpai out of her second music room.,Although I haven't had effective communication with her before.,But I believe that Fuyuma and Sa-chan are smart people.,When she sees the current situation,Should understand my intentions in doing this, right?

So, I stepped forward, and under the surprised eyes of Kitahara-senpai and Kogi-senpai, I passed through the gap between them and came to the door of the second music room, and knocked on the door of the second music room—three rhythmically knocks.

"Uh, Kazuya, what's going on?" Kitahara-senpai didn't seem to understand the situation at all, but he still looked at me with a strange expression, "Didn't you say before that you didn't know the people in the second music room?"

"I just knocked on the door casually, and I think the person I was talking to Kitahara-senpai just now was too unreasonable, so I thought I should let her give you another chance. ”

"Hey, hey, you're kidding, right? Do you know who's inside? If it's just a knock on the door, she's never going to respond, uh-"

Under the surprised gaze of Haruki Kitahara, the door of the second music room slowly opened, and then, a somewhat dissatisfied voice came from Fuyuma and Saya inside: "It's not impossible to come at this time, but I think you can't always come to me unilaterally in the future, and you should also give me a safe channel to contact you, otherwise this cooperation is really unfair—what's going on?"

Fuyuma and Sasa's expressions were only a little unhappy at first, and slowly became a little angry—before she completely felt that she had been betrayed by me, I stepped forward and said, "Hello, is this Fuyuma Senpai? ”

"Huh?" Fuyuma and Yarn looked at me dumbfounded.

- So Fuyuma's reaction speed is slower than I thought!

"Well, I'm sorry to bother you, Fuyuma-senpai, I just happened to see the process of your quarrel with Kitahara-senpai on the side, Kitahara-sao is a senior I respect very much, I think the way you talked to him just now was a little too rude?"

Finally, Fuyuma and Sasa seemed to understand what I meant to make her cooperate, and she took a slight step back and raised her head, showing her usual look of ignoring people: "First grader, don't talk too much nonsense. ”

"Fuyuma-senpai, you can understand that my sense of justice is too strong, but from my point of view just now, Kitahara-senpai doesn't seem to have made too many outrageous moves, I think you can discuss it with him?

"Yes, yes, Fuyuma, I didn't finish the reason for inviting you just now. Haruki Kitahara, who was behind me, seemed to finally react and hurriedly added.

Fuyuma and Sasa's murderous gaze locked on me—the kind of gaze I'd only seen before in the eyes under the snow.

She glared hard behind me, causing Haruki Kitahara to take an embarrassed step back, then glanced at me and asked me "what the hell are you going to let her do".

I crossed my hands in front of my abdomen, and faintly pointed at Kitahara-senpai behind me, and then at Kogi-sang-senpai—though I don't know if this will make Fuyuma and Sasa understand, and this will only test her comprehension ability.

"Of course, maybe Fuyuma-senpai doesn't want too many people to hear about your discussion with Kitahara-senpai, that's okay, of course, you shouldn't be willing to let too many people into that classroom, so if you just let Kitahara-sang-san go in and talk with you, is that okay? ”

- At this point, Fuyuma should understand what I mean, right?

She finally understood what I meant. Glaring at me fiercely, as if to express "I owe her a favor", she cleared her throat and said a little roughly: "Then Kitahara, you come in, I'll give you five minutes." ”

"Uh, is that okay?" Kitahara-senpai's face showed an expression of disbelief.

"Why don't you come in quickly, or you won't even be in five minutes!"

"Okay, okay," Kitahara-senpai looked at me with some confusion as he hurriedly stepped into the second music room.

I could hear his last words to himself: "Is that okay? Did I mean I was a little too rude?"

But I don't care about that anymore, the "five minutes" that Fuyuma and Sasa gave to Haruki Kitahara are also the "five minutes" given to me, and within these five minutes, I want to make everything over.

------------------------------------ Dividing Line---------------------------------------------

Kogi and I stood near the staircase of the first music room, looking at each other a little awkwardly.

This should be the first time I have come face-to-face with Kogi Senpai since the misunderstanding of the summer vacation.

Before meeting with my seniors, I felt that I had prepared a perfect set of words, but when I got to my seniors, I was a little afraid and didn't know what to say. It's like a shy boy who has been preparing at home for a long time and wants to confess, and he asks the girl out but doesn't know what to say.

- I'm like a stupid person, didn't I behave very well when I faced the group of junior high school students who were excited? Why now, in front of Xiao Mu Yu's seniors alone, I seem to be so out of place?

Compared to my nervousness, Kogi was much calmer, and she even hummed the tune of "white-album" with some self-satisfaction, which was in stark contrast to me who tried so hard to say something but didn't know what to do.

It's only about a minute, but for me, it's like a century.

In the end, it was Xiao Mu Yu's seniors who took the initiative to speak: "Kazuya, that Dongma classmate just now is the same Dongma and Sasa classmate who won the first place in the piano competition in the first grade we saw in the archives last time, right? Sure enough, it's the same as in the photo, it's a big beauty!"

"Well, it should be?" I replied with some smugness.

"Then, Kazuya, you and that Fuyuma and Sa-san, who just now, should have known each other before, right?"

"Uh-huh, this?"

"Ahh You never speak to a stranger in that tone, and you're not the kind of person who will argue for others because of the stranger's impolite behavior, and at the same time, I remember that you don't have a good impression of Kitahara-san, although this doesn't prevent you from being polite in front of him, but you definitely won't help him because of Kitahara-san's loss, right?"

"Quanzhong," in the face of such a discerning judgment of my senior, I could only admit it, "Senior you should be a detective." ”

"Of course, the main reason is because I saw you and Fuyuma-san gesturing in the back - you deliberately adjusted your posture in order to cover up that gesture, blocking Kitahara-san's view, but I on the other side behind you, I can see it very clearly!"

"Hey, hey, your story is the story of Conan Doyle and the coachman, right?"

"Eh, I haven't heard of it!" Kogi said with a playful wink.

"However, when did Kazuya meet that Fuyuma-san? I'm a little curious!" Kogi-senpai approached me and asked seriously.

Kogi's pupils were close at hand, but I couldn't tell from her eyes what she really thought, whether it was pure curiosity or something else.

"Well, I haven't asked my senior how I got so close to my predecessor in Kitahara! I'm also shocked to see the two of you together today, haven't I?" I took a step back and retorted.

"Sa, do you really think that you just found out about this situation?" the senior asked as he pulled the ends of his hair and didn't care.

- Damn, today's Xiao Mu Yu's senior, I feel that something is wrong, what she says is normal, but, there is a feeling that I seem to hold everything in my hands, this feeling, it is somewhat similar to the kind of wrist that sees through everything when Issei occasionally faces me, but the problem is that I can see those wrists of Ichishi's feathers, but I don't know what the current Xiao Mu Yu's predecessors are doing.

I stepped back again, and I didn't answer the senior's question, of course I couldn't answer, after all, I already knew the purpose of Haruki Kitahara to Kogi Sao's senior, and if I really said "I didn't realize it before" at this time, even I would be a little embarrassed.

"Then the relationship between Kazuya and Fuyuma-san will be discussed later, right?" Kogi Yu-senpai didn't continue to ask, she raised her head, and the hair on her sideburns turned in an arc in her hand, "So, I deliberately used Fuyuma-san to call Kitahara-san away, just to be alone with me, Kazuya, do you have anything to say to me?"

In the end, it was still seen through by Xiao Mu Yu's predecessors. It always seems that in front of other girls, I may not be able to see through all their thoughts, but at least they don't know what I'm thinking. However, in front of Kogi Senpai, I always seem to be a level lower, and when I feel that I understand what my senior is thinking, I can't grasp that specific point, but Kogi Senpai, she can always accurately grasp my purpose - even if she sometimes doesn't understand what I have prepared before.

The aura of pride that I used to be ready to face Kitahara seniors and Kogi Yu's predecessors is now gone. Looking at such a senior of Xiao Mu Shu, I could only answer honestly: "What I want to say is that just now, I helped Koharu solve the problem, and when she came to me before, she asked me to solve the problem of rumors against her in her school - although it was not completely solved, but she can handle the next little things." ”

"Well, I see, it's great, Kazuya, you finally went to help!" The senior's face became calm, and there seemed to be some complexity in her eyes, which seemed to be a kind of expectation, but there seemed to be a kind of sadness.

So, although I rejected my predecessors at the time, I have understood it later. I've found the right way to help others!" I raised my head and said resolutely to Kogi Senpai.

"Helping others...... "The senior looked at me and asked, "Is this what you want to say to me?"

"That's right, I just want to say this to my seniors, during the summer vacation, the reason why I had a conflict with my seniors is that my seniors think I should help Koharu, and I feel that I can't help Koharu, the core of the problem, isn't it here?"

"The core of the question is, to help, or not to help?"

"Isn't it?" I felt a hint of helplessness in my senior's tone - this was an illusion, right?

Obviously, it should be like this, the seniors want me to help Koharu, and I can't help Koharu, but now, in the case that I have already helped Koharu, in the case that I have found the right way to help others, the contradiction between me and Kogi Yu's seniors has now been resolved.

"Well, you can think so, right?" Senior Kogi sighed deeply, "So, Kazuya, you tell me the truth about this, and there are other purposes behind it, right?

"During the summer vacation, my predecessor said that you can't stand behind me anymore, right?"

"That's right. ”

"However, at the moment when I have corrected my mistakes, when I have found the right way to help others, and then I can help others, and I have proved myself by helping Koharu, can I ask my seniors to come back behind me and become the one who supports me?"

"What do you mean?"

"Senpai, I want you to directly refuse Kitahara-senpai's invitation - even if he hires Fuyuma and Sasa to be keyboardists. I looked up and made my thoughts clear.

"Is that so? Yes, yes! Yes, yes, yes, this is typical of your thoughts, your thoughts, as good as ever, but as always, it makes people feel tired. Kogi Senpai smiled a little helplessly, even a little tired, and then, she turned around, "I'm sorry, Kazuya, I still reject your proposal - now, I still can't stand behind you and be the one who always supports you." ”

--------------------------------PS----------------------------------

Although I think everyone should have guessed the ending after the chapter was released yesterday, but I'm still very unwilling.,I'm going to change the outline.,I'm going to change the outline.,Spoilers in the comments in the book review area or something.,It's so sad - but this plot is the core plot can't be changed.,Tat.。

Then, I really want to complain: Yukina is picturesque, and Kazumi is also a scumbag. And you just think too much, think too complicated, and force the problem to become like this, don't understand!
