Chapter 16: Gifts
Knock knock.
The white, slender hand clenched into a fist and tapped lightly on the door, making a knocking sound.
No one responded.
So, I knocked three more times.
After a while, there was still no response.
It's already past 9 o'clock in the evening, and you're not in your room yet?
The index finger slid gracefully over her jaw, and Rin pondered the possible whereabouts of some alien.
According to the normal schedule, everyone should be in their room at this time - even if it is an alien, most of them will be ...... Well?
Thinking of that overly energetic figure, Rin felt that she understood something.
If that's the case, let's wait a minute.
Smiling slightly, Rin slowly walked downstairs.
As she descended the stairs, she heard the energetic shouts coming from Room 101, as well as the blows, shouts, and background music of the fighting game characters.
Sure enough, is it playing a game with Kongtai?
"You two, can you excuse me?"
Knocking on the door three times, Rin said inside.
"Ah, yes, of course!"
"yes, I've won again, the 48th win against my junior brother!"
The sound of scrambling and the sound of triumphant came from inside, respectively.
"Then I'll come in!"
Pushing open the door, what I saw was Kongtai and an alien who were holding a gamepad, the former looked flustered + overwhelmed, and the latter was still full of elation.
"Did Rin-chan come to play games with us?"
"No," Rin shook her head with a subtle expression as she resisted the desire to complain, "I'm here to find you, but not to play games." β
As she spoke, she seemed to be magical, and took out two silver-white large-screen mobile phones that glowed under the light from somewhere on her body, and shook them in front of the two with a smile: "A letter to the two of you!" β
β......β
"Really?" Compared to Sota, who was a little sluggish because of the unexpected, Misaki's eyes lit up, "It's the latest, right?" β
Rin smiled and nodded, "Super new!" It's not on the market yet - after all, it's my brother who sells the phone...... Then! β
Because of someone's forcible continuation of life on *Kea and *Torola, in this time and space, a certain fruit mobile phone has not been able to be as imaginative in the world as in the previous life, and seeks defeat alone, but maintains a situation of equal opposition with someone's two major mobile phone brands - as for the * star of the first country in the universe, under the aggressive offensive of the two major opponents who continue to launch new products like a burst of seeds, there is a trend of evolution to a second-tier brand.
Of course, these are all digressions that have little to do with her for 'Rin Tosaka', and there is a tall man on top of the sky falling, so she doesn't need to worry about being 1.6 meters tall.
"Rin-senpai, will this be ......?"
Frightened to catch the phone that Rin threw over, Sota said nervously, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Rin.
"No!" Raising his index finger and shaking it, Rin still had a smiling expression, "This is the letter that my brother asked me to bring to everyone!" If you refuse, you are rejecting the kindness of Lord Yatake! β
In a sense, that's true, right?
"Oh, oh......"
"So junior brother, you just accept it! Be sure to remember to be grateful to me! β
This gift was given to me by Rin-senpai, so why should you be grateful to Misaki-senpai?
Kong Tai complained in his heart.
"But...... Kanda: The 'target' that hangs on your wall! Break away from Sakuraso!! What does that mean? β
Rin, who pretended to be 'abnormal' from casually looking at the decoration and arrangement of the room, asked as if he was interested in the painting.
"Ah, that, that......" Hearing Rin mention this, Sota's mood suddenly became tense.
"Don't say it yet, let me guessβ" Rin stopped him from continuing, "Is it because you can't stand Chihiro's irresponsible character?" β
"Ah, it's not." Sota denied, "Chihiro-sensei, although she is usually a little irresponsible, but I didn't leave Sakuraso because of this." β
"That's because...... Can't stand Misaki's too-'lively' personality? β
"Rin-chan, what are you talking about! Junior brother, he and I have met honestly! Our relationship is the most intimate! β
"Ahem, Misaki-senpai, please don't say it so misleadingly!" Sota reflexively hurriedly retorted - it would be too bad to be misunderstood by the beautiful senior in front of him because of Misaki's words.
"Hmm...... It doesn't seem to be the reason for that either. After a pause, Rin 'guessed', "That'...... Is it because of Mr. Ryunosuke's poisonous tongue? β
"Not really." Sora shook his head harder.
"Then ......" Rin's eyebrows furrowed at thought, and he whispered, "Could it be, could it be, because of Ren?" However, I haven't heard of him changing his orientation during the year! β
"It's not because of Ren-senpai!" Sweating profusely, Kuta hurriedly stopped Rin's brain hole - I have to say, this brain hole is really strange, and it almost thunders that Kong Tai can't think about it.
"Is that because..... I? Pointing her finger at herself, Rin looked at Sota and asked.
βοΌοΌβ
"Absolutely not!" Shake your head violently.
"It's not...... eyebrows furrowed even tighter, which also made Kongtai's heart even more up-and-down, for fear that the eldest lady would burst out again.
"So, isn't it because this is Sakuraso?"
β......β
Is that really the case?
Seeing Kuta's expression of being told the central matter, Rin smiled on the surface and said nothing, but in his heart he was secretly thinking about his words.
Sakuraso, ostensibly, or nominally, or in the eyes of ordinary students, is a penal colony for bad students in Santa Kronica-White Emperor Academy, but in reality, you don't have to be a bad person to get in here - it was established for the same purpose as when it originally belonged to Mizutaka, and only those who have special talents and talents, but are not allowed to stand in the group because of their personality, are the residents of this place - unless they return to the right path after reflection, or do not leave until they graduate.
The reason why Rin lived here in the first place was on the one hand from the direct intervention of a certain director (himself), and on the other hand, it was also because she was not very suitable for the female body at the beginning, and she was so murderous that the other Shengying classmates who lived in the Sakura Pavilion couldn't stand it, so she was forced to move here.
And Misaki's reason, on the one hand, is because of her unbearable character, and on the other hand, because of her 'not doing her job', for example, she can rely on orthodox oil painting to show her talent, but she has to rely on animation......
As for the benevolence...... Well, you get the idea. Moreover, he was able to come in, but he was also turned a blind eye - the school's idea was probably to let him, his childhood sweetheart, persuade Misaki to change his mind or something...... It is also not ruled out that he wants him to exert his masculine charm and work hard to spread hormones to make Rin fall in love.
However, Sota's words...... Ordinary appearance, ordinary personality, average grades, ordinary talents, ordinary hobbies, and no special ...... In any respect, it does not meet the criteria for entering Sakuraso.
When he first learned the news, he was in a male state at the time, and he specially questioned the principal who made this decision, which scared the other party into a cold sweat. and has conducted an overt and covert investigation on this matter from all sides...... In the end, it was concluded that it was just an accident and accident - because it was a violation of school rules to keep a cat in the dormitory, he had to be moved out of the dormitory; But because he paid the accommodation fee, he had to be given a place to live, and he was sent to Sakuraso. There's no trace of any gentleman manipulating behind the scenes.
Therefore, as a melon-eating crowd who doesn't know the truth, cough, Kongtai, an ordinary student, was moved into the notorious Sakura Village, and was shocked by the talents of the people in it, and wanted to escape from here, which is also the normal feeling of people.
At least, that's what Rin thinks.
PS: It's too busy, busy with work, busy with overtime, busy with rest, busy with liver boats, because it's busy, so it's not updated - you guys take this sentence seriously.
It's really hard to be a social person, and the constellation who was just fined by the unit yesterday really can't afford to be hurt.
This chapter should be regarded as a Mid-Autumn Festival gift for everyone.
As for when the next chapter will be released...... God knows.
