045. Promise
"Hmm...... Water ......"
"Uh-huh, Brother Shota, give."
"Hmm...... Thank you ......."
With the help of Ikai, Shota sat up in front of him and took the cup that Izumi handed him. After taking a sip of water, his parched throat was stimulated by the icy cold water, and Shota regained a slight trace of consciousness.
"Hmm... Sea? What time is it......"
"It's already half past three in the afternoon, and my brother will get up a little before you."
"That's it..."I don't know why, Shota always felt that the face of the sea in front of him was a little strange, and his face was full of some red glow that had not completely faded, "Wait, half past three in the afternoon?" ”
"Mmmm, it's the second day. Also, Happy birthday Brother Shota~! Although I had already told my brother in the early hours of yesterday morning, I always felt that my brother would not remember it. After a short while, there was no change in the face of the sea, which made Shota more and more sure that he had just gotten up and was dazzled.
However, compared to these, Shota is more concerned about the situation on Lunya's side.
Damn, my head hurts...... Never go drinking again!
While covering his headache-ridden head, Shota took out his phone from his pocket and turned it on.
Although I didn't go back, there should be many ways to get Lun to go to Detective Slope too, right? By now, they must have succeeded.
"Come, Brother Shota, wash your face." While Shota was waiting for his phone to turn on, he wrung out the towel soaked in the washbasin and handed it to Shota.
"Okay, thank you, go to sea."
Wiping his face casually, the labor pains caused by the hangover were also relieved a lot by the warm towel, Shota looked at the mobile phone in his hand again, there were more than 30 unread emails and more than 10 missed calls, all of which were sent or called by Yingli Li.
Oh no...... Sure enough, drunk and misguided......
I clicked on an email casually, but the content of the email made Shota's head hurt even more.
'Shota!? Why is my phone still turned off!? Have you forgotten what happened tomorrow morning? ’
The sender is Ying Lili, and the time is 11:37 last night, as always, delicately ignoring Shota's mood.
'Shota? Where have you been? Ying Li Li and Isshiki, as well as the classmates under the snow, are asking me where the hell have you been, please hurry up and reply! By the way, they also want me to tell you that you must go to Detective Poe tomorrow morning. ’
The sender is Lun Ye, and the time is 10 o'clock last night, and it seems that Yingli Li Li They have already made a backup plan that Xiangtai has never returned.
'Shota, please call back when you see the message. ’
This email sent by Shiyu to Shota this morning reminded Shota that even though Shiyu verbally said, "If Lun doesn't complete a qualified proposal before Golden Week, I will leave the club," he secretly wrote a script to motivate Rya.
Shota clicked on the previous email again, and the content was all the same, asking where Shota was now, for fear that he would make tomorrow's plan fail, and no email mentioned Shota's birthday.
What he couldn't understand the most was that even Isshiki just sent an email like 'Shota, I must come to Detective Poe with Ryunya tomorrow'.
Isshiki's ignorance, Yingli's nervousness, Shiyu's duplicity, and Megumi deliberately pushed off the last family trip, for all of them were Lunya, who wanted to give up halfway. Why, everyone is working hard for him?
The head still hurts as if it had been pricked by countless needles, and the effects of alcohol on the body have not only not increased, but have become more and more intense after a night.
Suddenly, Shota suddenly remembered that when Isshiki came to Lunye's house to comfort the two with yokan, Lunya had whispered that Isshiki was not far from his house.
Why does Len know the address of Isshiki's house!? Not only that, but that day, Yukino and Megumi were obviously staying overnight at Lunye's house, but they lied to me that they were at Megumi's house, why is that?
"Why...... Shota hugged his head tightly with both hands, lowered his head and gritted his teeth and roared, "It's all it, Lunya, Lunya, Lunya......"
"Brother Shota, what's wrong with you? Brother Shota? ”
However, no matter how much he shouted at sea, Shota didn't give any response, just kept roaring like a wounded beast.
Shota's abnormal appearance made the sea completely panicked, Shota's current appearance is completely different from the past, fragile, confused, this is not the Shota that goes to sea likes, and it is not the Shota that the sea hopes to see.
"Brother Xiangtai......" Without a trace of hesitation, he went out to sea and hugged the shrunken Xiangtai tightly in his arms, "Brother Xiangtai, did Senior Lun make you angry?" Even if Senior Lun makes you angry, I will stand on Brother Xiangtai's side. So, although my brother said that I didn't want to ask more, if Brother Shota has anything or what grievances he has suffered, he can tell me all......"
Whether it was the act of secretly kissing Shota before, or the act of hugging Shota into his arms now, it made Ikai's heart beat violently, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. However, even now, in a state where he can't even say anything, Shota is still comforting Shota as much as possible, so that Shota feels the support of Shota.
In the warm and soft embrace of the sea, Shota, who had lost his mind due to drunkenness and various negative emotions, finally slowly regained his calm.
"...... to the sea"
"What's going on?" The door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Iori, who heard the movement in the room after taking a shower, only had time to put on his pants and rushed into the room naked, but the scene in the room made him stunned for a while.
"Huh? Should I say, 'Sorry excuse me?'" ”
"Huh!? Brother ......" Seeing Iori's expression that changed from panic to ambiguity, I hurriedly took a big step back, and waved my hands to Iori with a red face, "It's not what my brother thinks!" It's Shota's brother, he ......"
"Iori."
Shota slowly stood up and looked at Iori with a calm face.
"What's wrong, Shota?"
Looking at the serious Shota, Iori's face also put away a smile.
"Excuse me, is there still a place for Rouge 'en' Rouge?"
"Of course, as long as Shota wants to, as long as I'm still the representative of rouge'en'rouge, you can enter rouge'en'rouge at any time." The most ideal talent that he had been pursuing finally entered the rouge'en'rouge, and the corners of Iori's mouth couldn't help but outline a beautiful arc, but it soon disappeared again.
Iori, who is the representative of Rouge'en'Rouge, will be happy for Shota to join, but Iori, who is a friend of Shota, can't help but feel about Shota's situation at this time.
"Shota, are you serious? It's a shame if it's just a spur of the moment, but I'll have to turn you down. I don't like it, what happened to Cao Cao and Xu Shu in ancient China happened to me, and it was a loss for both parties. ”
"Well, it doesn't matter, anyway, I'm not valued by that side, and it's naturally a better choice to jump to a club that values me and can also be exercised because of it."
There is no doubt that if you think about the interests alone, it is obviously better to join the rouge'en'rouge than to stay in the society that has not yet been named.
"Not taken seriously? Shota, I think we'll have to talk about it. ”
Although the first thing Iori said after entering the room was to tease his sister's behavior, it didn't mean that he didn't see the fragile appearance of Shota in his sister's arms.
"There's nothing to talk about, so let's decide, don't you welcome me?"
"No, as I said earlier, as long as Shota wants to, as long as I'm still the representative of Rouge'en'Rouge, you can enter Rouge'en'Rouge at any time. But now you are irrational, and there is a very important thing that I think you have to listen to before you make a decision. ”
After thinking about it, Iori still decided to tell Shota about Yono's email, even though Shota knew about it later, Iori still had a clear conscience about his actions. But after seeing Shota's current appearance, he suddenly felt that this thing was definitely not simple, and if Shota was allowed to join like this, Shota would definitely enter a dilemma when he came to his senses.
Therefore, alcohol is really harmful......
Last night, Iori just wanted Shota to get a little drunk, so that he could open his heart and express his dissatisfaction, so that he could prescribe the right medicine and say some targeted words to persuade Shota to come over, but he didn't expect the two of them to faint at the same time.
However, although Iori, who had taken a bath, is now sober, Shota is still in an impulsive state.
"I said it, no more talk." Pushing away Iori's hand that he wanted to put on his shoulder, Shota's body staggered a little towards the door, "Now, I have something I want to ask clearly. ”
"Shota!" Iori hurriedly grabbed Shota's shoulder again, "You can't listen to too much talk now, but you have to think clearly, how can they not pay attention to you?" ”
“…… I know. ”

It's a hard chapter......
