Chapter 34: Sakuragi's New Friend
Suzuki and Momoi came out of school, running back and forth, both a little tired. Since they learned from the water account that Sakuragi had no accident, the two of them were not so anxious, so they went back to the house to sit down and rest.
This new house has been renovated according to Suzuki's design, and the layout is very different from the traditional one-family building. There is no Japanese-style room, and the ground floor enters the entrance, and if you don't go up the stairs to go inside, it is a large comprehensive living room. On all four sides of the room, there are TV sofas, dining tables, chairs, and fitness equipment, and at the end are the kitchen and toilet separated by sliding doors.
Suzuki had no interest in taking turns bathing in a basin of water, so the bathroom in this house was not on the first floor, and there was no bathtub in it, but a small room was separated from the bedroom on the second and third floors as a bathroom, and a hot water shower was installed in it.
After taking the ready-made homemade juice from the kitchen refrigerator and pouring Momoi and himself a glass each, Suzuki sat down and analyzed, "It seems that the key to where Sakuragi has gone lies in the other red-haired classmate." ”
Momoi nodded in agreement and said, "There shouldn't be many red-haired people like Sakuragi, so if you call and ask Mr. Yukimura again, you should know the result immediately." ”
Suzuki slapped the table and said angrily: "This kid is really nonsense!" It's such a big person, and they can't even find a shadow, and they don't even leave a note! What's even more infuriating is that it's so late, and I don't know how to come back. ”
Momoi persuaded: "Sakuragi has no parents at such a young age, and it is inevitable that he will do something wrong, so when he comes back, you should talk to him well, lest he become rebellious." And it's 8 p.m., so he shouldn't have much to go, and maybe he'll be back soon. ”
As soon as Momoi finished saying this, the two heard the sound of the doorbell ringing.
Momoi said, "Look, isn't he coming back!" With that, she got up and went to the front to open the door.
Suzuki shook his head, not as optimistic as Momoi. Sakuragi has his own key, and it may be possible to sneak up to his own room on the third floor from the verandah, and if he rings the doorbell honestly to come in, then don't think about it. Despite thinking so, Suzuki still followed Momoi to the entrance, after all, he was the owner of this house, and it was polite to greet guests in person.
Momoi opened the door excitedly, and the outsiders were surprised: "It turns out that Sister Momoi is here, is Mr. Suzuki at home?" ”
As soon as Momoi let go, Suzuki saw the person coming and asked, "Hiiragi-san, it's you, is there anything wrong?" ”
The person who came was Suzuki's neighbor, Hiiragi's child, Hiiragi Yoshisei.
Hiiragi Yoshinari greeted Suzuki and said, "Mr. Suzuki, please come with me to my house, Sakuragi is at my house, he caused some trouble today and didn't dare to go home." I saw the lights on here, and I knew that you were back, so I came to you to persuade me. ”
Suzuki sighed in his heart that he had forgotten about this stubble. His neighbor, Mrs. Hiiragi, is a nurse in the hospital.,Usually Sakuragi has a small injury when he plays ball, it's entrusted to this neighbor.,Today's fight was injured.,It shouldn't be an exception.。
Suzuki walked out of the room quickly and said to Hiiragi, "Take me to him." ”
Momoi asked Hiiragi, "Hiiragi-kun, is it convenient for me to come along?" ”
Hiiragi Yoshinari smiled: "Of course you can." ”
The three of them came to Hiiragi's house, only to see Sakuragi sitting cross-legged in the living room like a nobody.
Suzuki stepped forward and grabbed Sakuragi, looked up and down carefully, and saw that he only put a plaster on the upper left side of his forehead, and said with a sigh of relief, "It's okay." ”
Sakuragi was very embarrassed by him, and he didn't dare to break free, so he begged Momoi behind Suzuki for help with his eyes.
Momoi relented, pulled the hem of Suzuki's clothes, and whispered, "There are outsiders, don't be rude." ”
Suzuki reacted, first greeting Hiiragi and thanking him, and then looked at another strange red-haired boy in the room.
The boy wears the same suit-style uniform as Sakuragi, the only difference is the color of the tie, the dark blue indicates that he is in the third grade.
At first glance, this boy is very similar to Sakuragi, and the main features of the red-haired man are almost the same, and those who are not familiar with it may recognize the wrong person when they see it. However, Suzuki is not an outsider after all, and when I look at it again, I can see the difference between the two.
This boy is taller than Sakuragi, and his hair color is not as bright as Sakuragi's, and if you look closely, the roots of his hair are still black, and it is obvious that his red hair is not born, but dyed.
Sakuragi's classmate had also been dealt with by Hiiragi, and he turned his head to greet Suzuki and said, "Hello, Mr. Suzuki, I'm Mori Shouzaburo, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me." ”
Seeing Maori's appearance clearly, Momoi couldn't help but sneer, this kid was too miserable today, with band-aids all over his face, and his hands were raised when he said hello, and gauze was wrapped around his two hands.
Suzuki examined the culprit who had drawn Sakuragi into the brawl and replied with some coldness, "Hello." Are you Sakuragi's classmate? ”
Maori nodded, "Yes." ”
Sakuragi on the side emphasized: "It's a friend." ”
Sakuragi's special family situation made him faintly ostracized in the school of Lihai Nation, and the few people who could speak were teammates in the basketball team, and his strength from the crowd made it difficult for him to make friends with this group of teammates on an equal footing.
This was also the first time Sakuragi had introduced his friend to Suzuki.
Suzuki's face softened a little, and he asked Sakuragi, "What happened today, tell me first." ”
Sakuragi and Mori's answers are the same as what Mito and others said, and they add to the cause of the incident.
It turned out that the first person to fight with Wamitsu's people was Akaya Kirihara of the Lihai tennis team, and after he caused the incident, he couldn't solve it quickly, but instead attracted Takamiya's group of people, making the scene bigger and bigger.
The tennis team, like the basketball team, used the weekend to train for the game, and Kirihara found that he couldn't catch up with the game, so he quit first, but he didn't expect to be entangled by Takamiya and his gang.
At the critical moment, the basketball team's training ended, and Maori happened to pass by, he and Kirihara were old acquaintances, because they both liked martial arts and had a good relationship.
Although Maori is tall and strong, Gao Gong is not a vegetarian, and he has a lot of experience in street fights.
There are just two ways to come out of the great country of Lihai, at this time Sakuragi passed by, and when he saw that his friends were suffering, he couldn't help it at all, and he also joined the battle group, and most of the injuries on the people of Takamiya were suffered at this time.
After Mito inquired, the Takanomiya and a few people had a good time, the fighting spirit subsided, and the two sides were afraid of each other, so they put a few cruel words and dispersed.
Knowing the whole story, Suzuki asked about Maori again.
It turned out that Mori was a transfer student who had just come from Osaka this year, and he didn't know the place well and had no friends. He used to play tennis, but he couldn't compete for the right selection in Lihai's tennis team, so he was a little slack, and when he missed club training, he happened to meet Sakuragi, who was allowed to move freely by Yukimura.
The two red hairs look at each other pleasing to the eye and make friends.
Sakuragi heard Maori talk about his troubles, patted his chest and said that the basketball team could make Maori play the main selection, and took her to meet Yukimura.
In junior high school, there are not many people with a height of 1.89 meters, and Coach Yukimura naturally will not let go of this talent, so he passed on a sentence and transferred Maori from the tennis team to the basketball team.
And Maori itself has a foundation, and with the help of Sakuragi, the team's ace, he has made rapid progress, and has now established himself as a position in the team's starting interior line.
Sakuragi usually doesn't talk much, but tonight he introduced Maori to Suzuki at length, and Suzuki guessed some of it. However, Suzuki was not ready to forgive Sakuragi for this, and said with a straight face: "I know everything about today. Sakuragi, you reflect on what mistakes you have made, and write a letter of repentance tomorrow and hand it to me, no less than 500 words. It's not too early now, we can't already disturb Mrs. Hiiragi enough, let's go back first. ”
Sakuragi was a little disappointed that he couldn't make up for it, but he still thanked Hiiragi politely and then took his leave.
Suzuki asked Sakuragi to go home first to wash up, and sent Momoi home by himself.
On the way, Momoi smiled crookedly: "500-word letter of repentance, Hongwenjun, your trick is too bad!" Where did you learn it? ”
Suzuki naturally couldn't answer that this was the trick of the rabbit family next to him, so he smiled, vaguely pushed the past, and then said, "No, it's not okay." Sakuragi is not my own child after all, it is not good to beat and scold, if he is not punished like this, he is not impressed, and he may commit another crime one day. At that point, it's too late to regret it. ”
However, Momoi didn't listen to Suzuki's words, stopped, glared at Suzuki who was a little inexplicable, and asked, "Is it that in the future, our own children, you want to beat and scold?" ”
Suzuki replied with a natural face: "Of course, if you don't beat or scold, the child can't remember when he makes a mistake!" The so-called filial son comes out under the stick! ”
Momoi writhed Suzuki's waist and said, "I'll kill you first!" ”
At this time, Suzuki knew that he had hated Momoi in the parent-child education policy, so he quickly changed his words, and said good words to appease her, and finally before he arrived at Momoi's house, he coaxed her to smile again.
Seeing that there was no one around, the two hugged each other and kissed for a while, before they reluctantly parted and waved goodbye.
