Chapter 5: A Turn on the Offensive

When was the last time something this tricky happened?

Last week? Last month? Last year?

Or was it a little longer ago?

Mai Shiraishi looked at the crying high school girl in front of her, and couldn't help but ask herself this in her mind.

Maybe it's because her brain is so confused, she can't remember it well.

But that's what happened before, and Mai Shiraishi told herself in her heart that solving the problem at hand now is crucial.

Mai Shiraishi, who was born in 92, has now crossed the threshold of 25 and is 26 years old, and now, she is also a mature woman, not to mention, she has a tortuous and winding growth experience that ordinary people do not have.

Therefore, in all senses, Mai Shiraishi can be regarded as a woman who is out of immaturity and full of social experience.

So, what kind of move does she have to do now?

Mai Shiraishi's mind inexplicably flashed over Ozono's face to Momoko.

Momoko's words were very crying at first, and even now.

In Mai Shiraishi's impression, Osono Momoko is a very sensitive girl, like carrying a swimming pool with her, and if you're not careful, tears will flow out of your eyes.

Recalling the fragments of past memories, Mai Shiraishi gradually had a bottom in her heart.

In that case, as long as you are gentle enough, right?

In the past, in the group, Mai Shiraishi's gentle moves were almost tried and tested by those juniors.

After all, being treated gently by a senior is indeed a very lethal thing.

However, now she is wearing a mask and a beret, and according to the current situation, the children in front of her do not recognize her at all, and those who were in the group before are after all, with a special bonus from top to bottom.

In this case, does that trick still apply?

Mai Shiraishi was a little worried.

However, it's all children, so it shouldn't matter, right?

Mai Shiraishi comforted herself like this while staring at Yuno Suzuki, but what even she didn't notice was that when she looked at Yuno Suzuki's immature face crying with pear blossoms and rain-

The gaze became more and more excited.

"I'm sorry!" Mai Shiraishi opened her mouth first, her voice rising slightly, wanting to attract Yuno Suzuki's attention and transfer the other party's gaze that had been on the broken phone to herself.

“?”

Mai Shiraishi's method was simple and effective, and Yuno Suzuki really raised her head, but when those big red eyes looked at her, she had a strange feeling.

It doesn't seem like pity, it's more about another emotion, called premonition.

She felt like she was in big trouble.

Interrupted by Suzuki's pitiful gesture, Mai Shiraishi forgot what she was going to say next for a while, and with a slight sweep, she saw more and more onlookers around her, and this scene reminded her of what to do next.

How suspicious is the identity of the mask you are wearing.

So Mai Shiraishi made the decision to pull Yuno Suzuki aside first, find a suitable place, and then solve it well.

As for rushing to the meeting place, she had already forgotten about it.

This is not the first time Mai Shiraishi has taken the initiative to hold the hand of a strange girl, she thought that Yuno Suzuki would resist a little or break free.

But I didn't expect Suzuki Yuno to be very obedient, let her lead her, and walked to the side of the road.

This is a good start, Mai Shiraishi was slightly pleased, and the two of them came to the far end of the road, one after the other, by the wall of a building.

Don't look at Mai Shiraishi thinking too much, in reality, it's only been a while.

Standing still, the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere began to be a little awkward again.

"What's your name?" Mai Shiraishi decided to start by asking the other person's name.

“yuno。” Yuno Suzuki sullenly spat out two syllables from his mouth, a little hoarse.

This is the second time Mai Shiraishi has heard Suzuki Yuno speak, the first time is the other party's scream that is enough to scream, she simply came to the conclusion that the other party's voice is very good, and when Suzuki Yuno opened his lips and teeth, he revealed an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

It's like a person, the kind she can see often.

But no matter how much, she couldn't remember anything, Mai Shiraishi didn't care too much, and blamed herself for being too careful.

"So, Yuno?" Mai Shiraishi shouted tentatively, and she looked at Yuno Suzuki, and suddenly felt that the name suited her well.

"Hmm." Yuno Suzuki only went to wipe the corners of her eyes at this time, and when Mai Shiraishi called her, she subconsciously responded.

I have to admit that Mai Shiraishi is so cute by her.

"Yuno!"

"What?"

Mai Shiraishi couldn't help but shout again, but this time it was Yuno Suzuki's slightly annoyed response.

Yuno Suzuki's eyes widened slightly, and Mai Shiraishi saw this and knew her intentions-

If you do this again, Yuno will be angry.

"I'm sorry for what happened just now," although Yuno Suzuki couldn't see it, Mai Shiraishi under the mask still smiled, and then apologized, as if she was afraid of annoying Yuno Suzuki, she continued to use a gentle voice just now: "Falling like this, I'm not ......"

Mai Shiraishi was halfway through speaking, Yuno Suzuki's nose that had calmed down began to open one by one again, Mai Shiraishi saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly added: "Eh, I'll make it up, don't-"

"What?"

"Huh?"

Fortunately, Mai Shiraishi's envisioned picture did not happen, and Yuno Suzuki stopped crying in time.

"How to compensate." Yuno Suzuki said again, and Mai Shiraishi realized that the words of the child in front of him were always very short.

It seems that he is a child who is afraid of life.

But why do you let yourself lead you?

Mai Shiraishi couldn't figure it out, and spoke again: "How about a different one?" ”

"The same brand new kind."

"Or, want a newer model?"

Saying this, Mai Shiraishi glanced at the iphone5 in Suzuki Yuno's hand again, although this was very unkind, but she still inevitably guessed Suzuki Yuno's family situation.

"Don't."

"Huh?"

In fact, being rejected was also an expected situation for Mai Shiraishi, but what she didn't expect was that Yuno Suzuki would be so straightforward.

"Why, Yuna? The phone is too broken to ...... Okay, maybe it works," Mai Shiraishi said halfway through, and was forced back by Yuno Suzuki's eyes, and before she knew it, she had already figured out the other party's temperament and conversation habits.

"But even if it works, it's too cumbersome to repair, right?"

"It's better to get a new one."

Faced with such a well-dressed woman who came in a taxi, dressed in a dress, Suzuki Yuno would not doubt the authenticity of the other party's words, and the other party's gestures revealed a temperament, so he almost wrote "Sister is rich" on the mask.

And Mai Shiraishi is wearing a mask and a hat, and she seems to be very privacy-conscious, and Yuno Suzuki feels that the other party may have some identity that can't be said, maybe it's still an artist or something.

The more Yuno Suzuki thought about it, the more she thought it was possible, but she didn't care about it, so she didn't think about it anymore.

She pursed her lips and listened motionlessly, until Mai Shiraishi finished speaking, and then she moved-

Still shaking his head.

If it weren't really sure that Yuno Suzuki didn't recognize him, Mai Shiraishi would almost think that the other party was deliberately finding fault.

"Why?" She couldn't help but ask, but she was patient enough.

"This is, Mom bought it."

"It's been three years."

Mai Shiraishi looked at Yuno Suzuki and explained intermittently, and at the same time, she couldn't help but have a higher evaluation of her in her heart.

It seems that he is still a nostalgic and filial child.

She made such a judgment, and did not doubt the truth of Suzuki Yuno's words, after all, who would go to the trouble of lying to a stranger, or refuse to be tempted by such a proposition.

"In that case, I can only try my best to repair it," there was only one road left, but Mai Shiraishi hesitated a little, "However, I am still in a hurry, and I may not be able to accompany Yuno to repair it with you." “

"The best way is that I will compensate you a sum of money, and then Nai will take it to repair."

"Absolutely enough money."

"What do you think?"

Mai Shiraishi patiently spoke her thoughts, and after a long time, she calmed down a lot, and she realized that in addition to the problem in front of her, there were also members who were waiting for her to meet.

"No way!" When Yuno Suzuki heard Mai Shiraishi finish speaking, he couldn't help but shout anxiously, and took a rare initiative to take a step and grabbed Mai Shiraishi's white and slender wrist.

"You are not allowed to run!"
