Chapter 44: Wind Club
"Why?" Shirakami Yukiha was not discouraged and repeated it seriously.
Hoshimi raised his head helplessly, remembering the experience of the other party once leading the teacher to catch him all over the school, the tip of the pen gently poked the page, and said, "Bai Ye-san, I don't think I care too much about me, obviously there are other students besides me who don't like group activities, right?" Why do you always hold on to me? β
"That's because they're introverts, and we shouldn't force them to fit in."
"Then why are you forcing me?" Hoshimi looked at the other party sitting upright and was quite distressed, leaned back, grabbed his hair, and frowned and retorted.
"Because we have been in the same class since kindergarten, Hoshimi was the best student in the class before the third grade, and he actively participated in academics, sports, and group activities." Shirakami's hand silently lifted from his knee and pressed against Hoshimi's table, "Hoshimi used to run to the garden to feed the cats at noon, but then it suddenly seemed like a different person. β
Shirakami slowly approached Hoshimi with a straight face propped up on the table, and didn't freeze until Hoshimi was completely attached to the back of the chair, "I don't know what happened to Hoshimi-san, but I was once trusted by Hoshimi-san, and I will help you, it's my responsibility." β
"That's because the cat disappeared suddenly, and I don't know if it was chased away by the security guard." Hoshimi didn't hear what Hakumi had just said to herself at all, except for the cat, but was forced to lean back incessantly, and when she looked up, her eyes met the tense lips of the other party, and an invisible pressure made her nowhere to escape.
"No, that cat was adopted by Hoshimi-san when he was on suspension, and his name is Citrus. Because no one ran to feed it at noon except for Hoshimi-san, I had to adopt it. Shirakami sat back in his seat, his tone unwavering.
Hoshimi suddenly felt his scalp tingle, gasped, and silently moved the chair and table back, "You... Stalk me, I was eight years old when I fed the cat..."
"No, I started feeding at the age of six, and you took a break from school when you were eight years old."
Hoshimi swallowed his saliva and felt a chill run down his back, "What the hell do you want to say?" β
Bai Shang lowered his eyes for a moment, and the wind crackled the window, "I just wanted to tell you that I think you are a very good person, and there are many people who care about you besides me." So if Hoshimi has a problem, you can ask us for help, and the teacher and I will help you. β
"But I don't have a problem..."Hoshimi breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that the person in front of him was still the same good old man, and Shirakami quietly got up and closed the window.
Just when Hoshimi closed the window and just turned around, Shirakami appeared in front of her as if he was teleporting, supporting the edge of the window with one hand, so that Hoshimi was forced to confine himself to a square inch, and he could still feel the other party's gentle breathing on his face.
"Then why don't you feed the cats?"
"Wasn't it adopted by you?" Hoshimi tried to withdraw from the other side, but was immediately blocked by Shirogami's other hand.
"Then why don't you adopt it?"
"Because I have no one at home who can take care of it, my mother doesn't even have time to take care of me, and I still have to go to class." Hoshimi leaned his head against the glass window with a sullen expression, and continued to wait for Shirakami's questioning.
"Then why did you suddenly take a two-year break from school?"
"Didn't they all say it was because of physical reasons? What the whole class knew at that time, you know better if you are the class president. β
"Then why didn't you go back to school and participate in group activities after you recovered?"
"Because I don't want to participate. Are you a hundred thousand why? Hoshimi couldn't help but fold his arms against his chest, separating himself from a safe distance, and subconsciously wanted to clench his fists to rush the other party away, but thinking of Shirakami's thin physique due to picky eating, he was forced to give up.
"I'm not a hundred thousand whys. But Hoshimi-san, who has always been in the same class as me since I was a child, is my role model, and it is also because Hoshimi-san kept telling me that I have leadership skills in the first grade, so that I can always strive to become a class president. β
Hoshimi suddenly tilted his head to the side and remembered that in order to save time for play, he chose Shirakami, who was the quietest in the class at the time, and he also urged his friends to vote together, and his heart was empty.
"So for me, I still want to see the once dazzling stars and classmates."
Hoshimi's right hand, which had originally maintained a blocking posture, was instantly a little angry when he heard this, and his index finger poked his face hard against Shirakami, and he retorted angrily in his mouth: "Isn't it dazzling if I don't participate in group activities?" Have you eaten my face and grades? β
"So, can Hoshimi-san sign the application for joining the company?" Shirakami's condensed expression finally fluctuated slightly, and his body relaxed.
"What is the application for membership?" Hoshimi leaned closer and looked at the place where she had just sat down through Shirogami's shoulder, and did not see the so-called application, and the familiar shutter sound sounded in her ears at the moment she retreated, although the sound was very soft, but the sensitive Hoshimi reacted instantly and looked at the front door.
A dark shadow flickered through the doorway, and it was impossible to see who it was. Hoshimi bent down and passed through Shirogami's hand blocking his side, and was about to rush up to arrest someone, but was pulled by Shirakami, "You haven't signed yet, and you want to slip away." β
"Didn't you hear?" Hoshimi shook off Shirakami's hand under control, "Someone took a picture just now, and there was definitely more than one." β
"I didn't hear it." Bai looked at the front door, there was nothing abnormal, and he turned his head to look at Hoshimi, who was holding his forehead and kicking his legs, a little confused: "It's okay even if it's a photo, we haven't done anything, and Xingjian classmates should often be secretly photographed, search for your photos in the campus forum." β
"Yes, but how do you know that the campus forum has a picture of me?" Hoshimi silently distanced the two.
"Because there are also pictures of me, our photos are often compared side by side."
"Then you're going to lose." After leaving these words, Hoshimi turned around and circled around the desk to return to his seat, looking down and continuing to look at his workbook.
"Sign first."
An application form that had already filled in the information was forced into Hoshimi's eyes, and the moment he looked up, he saw Hoshimi's suddenly rosy cheeks and asked, "Was it blown by the wind just now?" Your face is suddenly so red. β
"I know and ask. What is it? Wind club enrollment application? Hoshimi took the application form, flipped through the paper and looked at it with a frown.
"This was recommended by Seiko Eguchi, and she felt that it might be helpful for us to participate in the wind club, so although it was normal recruitment time, she opened a back door for us as a club instructor. I've already filled in the information for you, you just need to sign it. β
"Why should I sign, I don't join the ministry, I still have tutoring after school."
"This Eguchi-sensei has communicated with your mother, and there is no conflict between club time and tutoring time."
"I'm not fit for these instrumentsβ"
"You played the harmonica at your elementary school evening, and although I don't know what other instrument you have learned, it should be no problem to play the wind instrument. And you've studied music theory before. β
"I-worthy of you, Bai Shangxueye, you are really idle enough, why didn't I see you join any club!"
"Yes, so I will also listen to Eguchi-sensei's advice and join the wind club, I have been studying violin, and when I join the club, I will play the double bass."
Hoshimi closed his eyes and leaned back in the chair and rubbed the bridge of his nose, remembering the difficult past of being bombarded with information, and sighed, "I-where is the signature?" Hoshimi pulled out the cap of his pen in distraught, signed his name on the space next to Shirogami's finger, and then grabbed the application form and threw it to Shirogami. Can I do my homework? I don't like to be interrupted when I'm writing. β
"Exactly, so do I." Shirakami took the application form and put it in the file bag on the podium, picked up the chalk again and pointed it at the blackboard, as if she suddenly remembered something, she turned to the preoccupied Hoshimi and shouted, "By the way, I forgot to tell you that the result of the two of us is currently that I have more votes, although the difference is not big." After speaking, Bai Shang turned his back and continued to write the tutoring test questions without distraction.
