After seeing the bruises on my face, Tomoyo took me by the hand and went to the infirmary without saying a word, but when we opened the door of the infirmary, we found that the teacher was not there, so we had to ask Tomoyo to help me with a simple care.

"Really, you're the only one who can be so calm when you're kicked by the ball."

While rubbing the ointment on my bruised area, Tomoyo shook his head with a wry smile after listening to my explanation of why my eyes became like this.

"Because there's no point in getting angry, right?"

With my eyes closed, I feel the cool sensation of the ointment on my eyelids, I explained.

"That's why you say you're a bad person," and finally helped me put on the blindfold, and Tomoyo turned around and began to clean up, putting the medicine back in turn, "But that's also your merit." ”

"Haha, that's right."

Hearing Tomoyo praise this, I lowered my head and scratched my cheeks embarrassedly.

Seriously, it's rare that I've been here for so long and I've never been so blunt.

Okazaki and Haruhara are already thankful that they don't get me in trouble; Apricot is generally "stupid" and "wood" shouting at me; Furukawa is very gentle, and although she doesn't say anything rude, the two of us rarely meet at school or at her bakery, except for the occasional meeting and chatting at her bakery. Not to mention Starling's words, although she is no longer afraid to talk to me now, she still has to be careful not to be attacked by her heavy sister, and she really can't let her guard down every day.

In short, well~ can be praised... It's really fun.

"What's wrong, Izumi?" Closing the cabinet, Tomoyo turned his head to look at me puzzled, "Your face is a little red, are you allergic to disinfectant potions?" ”

"Uh, ah, of course not," he shook his head in a panic in response, but unfortunately bit his tongue, "It's Yang Gua pain!" … It's the cause of sunlight. ”

"So, that... It's okay, right? ”

Looking at me squatting on the ground with my mouth covered, Tomoyo asked worriedly.

"No problem!" In order not to lose face, I stood up and gave a thumbs up to Tomoyo, and forced myself to put on a smile that was already fine, "There is no problem with this pain!" ”

In fact, I just bit a little meat on the tip of my tongue, and the pain was enough to make me jump up, but for the sake of face... Bear with it!

"By the way, Tomoyo, don't you think it's more obvious?"

"This" of course refers to the white gauze that clings to the eyelids.

"Really? But I think it's much better than walking with my eyes covered. ”

"Hmm~ Convenient is indeed a lot more convenient."

Walking out of the infirmary after Chiyo, we walked towards the exit of the school building together.

"Ahh By the way, Tomoyo, do you know where Usami is? ”

"Now at this time..."Tilting his head and thinking about it, Tomoyo replied to give me the same answer as I had thought before, "Isn't Kanako supposed to be in the Ministry of Information?" ”

"I went there to look for her before, but Takamachi-san said she didn't go to the ministry today."

"It's true that I've been feeling like she's been busy lately, and I don't see her much during my breaks."

"Really? It's the same with you. ”

Shrugged my shoulders in disappointment, I pressed my forehead and sighed.

I forgot that although Usami is very dark and vicious, she is indeed the number one star of the Ministry of Information, and it is normal for her to be busy.

“… Izumi: You have a good relationship with Kanako. ”

"Eh~ Is that so?"

It's not so much that it's a good relationship, but that I'm being bullied unilaterally.

Of course, these words can't be said in front of Zhidai, who has a good relationship with rabbits.

"But what do you ask me for?"

"Ahh Just a little curious. ”

I don't know if it's because of the sunset, but I feel that Tomoyo's cheeks are a little red.

"Well," I said helplessly, scratching my head, "but I have something I want to ask her, but I'll ask you when I have a chance to meet it later." ”

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

"Haha, maybe it can't be helped," I hurriedly explained when I saw Tomoyo's eyebrows furrowed, "I want to inquire about the football club, after all, Tomoyo and I are both transfer students, right?" ”

"Well~ If that's the case, it's true that Kanako is the most suitable candidate."

"Right! I think so, too. ”

Sure enough, everyone thinks so, to ask for gossip news, Usami is definitely the number one candidate!

"Izumi, do you want to be in the soccer club?"

But instead of being surprised, I think Tomoyo's expression of "not for you at all" hurt me more.

"No, I've already entered the drama department, and the football club is still over," waving my hand in denial, I smiled bitterly at the members of the football club who were training on the sports field not far away, "It's just a little curious." ”

Because of the football that played me at the time, now that I think about it, I feel that there was a lot of malice in the game, and to be honest, I can't imagine that I had done anything to offend the football club when I just transferred to the school, and if it wasn't me, then only Haruhara, who was walking on the inside at the time, would have been left.

What a terrible assumption...

"But when it comes to the football club, I've heard some bad rumors."

"Rumors?"

"There are rumors among the students who join the sports club that the people in the football club don't seem to be very good, but there is no need to believe these things without real evidence."

This answer is indeed Zhidai's style.

"That's true, after all, there will be rumors everywhere."

I nodded in agreement with Tomoyo's words, and then chased a boy with glasses out of the school building.

"What's the matter?"

"Sakagami, fortunately, you haven't left yet, and the president has something to do with you."

Wearing glasses, Sven Moon, looks like a person with a good head. Well~ But if you can do things for the student union, you must be a model student.

"Eh, the president is looking for me?" Tomoyo looked at the boy chasing after him in surprise, was stunned, turned his head and said to me a little embarrassed, "Izumi, I'm sorry, you go first, I'm going to the student union." ”

"It's okay," I waved my hand to show I didn't care, "it's better that I've delayed you so much." ”

"Then I'll go first, see you tomorrow."

"Well, goodbye."

Watching Tomoyo follow the boy towards the school building, I turned around and walked towards the school gate, but I accidentally met the boy's eyes.

Not... It seems that I was glared at just now?

———————————— dividing line————————————

These are glaring glances.

Since I forgot that I was not good at running, I ran at full speed from school to Kotomi's house in a hurry, and now I am out of breath and walking on the road, and I am a one-eyed man with an eye patch, and these points alone have a high return rate, especially when I walked to the community, the housewives I met looked at me with strange eyes.

Raise your head and hold your chest high, the more you have to lose in momentum at this time, walking with your head down and your head down looks like you've done something wrong, and now in this society, even a thief walking by will not let you see his weakness.

This state of affairs continued until I was walking briskly to Kotomi's house, because there was a more eye-catching person than me.

I said~ Sir, can't you just change that outfit?

Dressed in black from head to toe, and wearing sunglasses that cover most of my face, no matter how you look at it, it is more suspicious than me.

"Hello."

Walking forward, I greeted him.

"Friend-kun? Hello. ”

Taking off his hat, the old gentleman nodded to me in a friendly manner.

But it seems that he doesn't notice the sight around him at all... Maybe you don't care?

"Excuse me, are you also here to see Kotomi?"

"Yes, tomorrow is Kotomi-kun's birthday, but she doesn't want to see me yet," looking in the direction of Kotomi's house, the old gentleman touched the suitcase in his right hand and showed a sad expression, "But I have a gift that I have to give her." ”

"Gifts? Is it important? ”

My gaze dropped to the box.

The edges and corners were dented, the sheen of metal had been lost, the plastic handles were broken, and the hinges were rusty.

This box is really used enough, is it in the middle of the important gifts?

"yes, a very important gift."

"That's right," I saw the distressed expression on the old gentleman's face, and a thought suddenly popped up in my heart, "That's right! Tomorrow we will have a birthday party for Kotomi, and if we can, can we come to school tomorrow? ”

"At school?"

"Yes, in order to get Kotomi out of the house, we decided to set the location at the school," nodding affirmatively, I looked at the suitcase that the old gentleman was carrying, "An important gift can be given to Kotomi tomorrow." ”

To be honest, I don't think the old gentleman is a bad person, but a polite gentleman. I'm so polite to the juniors.,And I'm also very concerned about Kotomi.,Such a good person has been misunderstood for a bad person.,It's actually quite pitiful.。

Kotomi has always been unilaterally rejecting the other party, and if she can, as long as she gives a platform for both parties to communicate, she hopes that all misunderstandings can be explained clearly tomorrow.
