Chapter 36 Care
After drinking two glasses of sake, I felt a heat on my face.
Although there was no other feeling other than that, after Qi Mu Qian found out, she couldn't help but be concerned: "...... Your face is so red, Masei-kun, are you okay? β
"Ah, it's fine." I smiled, "The alcohol level of this wine seems to be really okay, it's fine." But I'll go to the toilet first. β
Qimu Qian nodded without thinking and took another bite of roast beef, "Okay." β
And I excused myself to go to the bathroom, but I actually paid the bill in advance - lest I accidentally drink too much and can't grab her at the checkout.
It wasn't until I saw that the store had accepted the money that I was relieved to return to my seat.
Then, as I expected, by the time I finished my third drink, I felt a wave of lightheadedness.
"Senpai......" I propped my forehead and rubbed my forehead to try to make myself feel better: "I don't seem to be able to drink anymore......"
"Huh?" Qimu Qian was stunned for a moment, and said with some amusement: "Isn't it okay to have only three cups?" β
"Sorry......"
"It's okay, what's so sorry about this." Qimu Qian smiled heartily, "You were originally with me." Well, we're pretty much done with food anyway, so let's go back. β
ββ¦β¦ Well. I reacted slowly, seeing that she had already stood up and was about to go to the front desk to settle the bill, I quickly stood up, trying to catch up, but my stomach churned, and I suddenly bent down uncomfortably and covered my inexplicably uncomfortable stomach.
Fortunately, after a little relief, it was not so painful that it was unbearable. I paused, and when I caught up, Akane-senpai was already waiting for me at the door.
She said a little helplessly: "You actually settled the account in advance, and you didn't tell me - was it when you went to say that you were going to the toilet?" β
"Hmm......"
"What's wrong with you?" Sensing that my tone was wrong, Akane's senior frowned a little worriedly after I approached: "My face is terrible......"
"Maybe drunk...... "I could hear my voice a little weak, and I felt that what I had just drunk was not alcohol, but as if I had been poisoned." It doesn't matter, just go back and get some sleep. β
"Really?" Senior Akane watched me walk past her uncomfortably, hesitated for a moment, and then followed.
"Uh-huh......" But after a few steps, I felt dizzy, and by the time I came back to my senses, I was already crouching down, one hand supporting the ground, and my eyes were dizzy.
"No, you're ......" Akane Hachiki was probably shocked by my overly serious reaction.
She quickly squatted down beside me and grabbed my arm, as if she was afraid that I would fall to the ground. "Are you really okay?"
At the end, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "You only drank three glasses of sake?" β
I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't speak, so I just crouched on the ground, but I couldn't answer.
At this time, a voice sounded in surprise: "Akane? What are you doing? β
"Ah, red."
I barely looked up, but I saw a woman with long black curly hair standing in front of me, dressed in a rather strange style, some of which looked like a circle of bandages wrapped around her body.
Qimu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You came just in time, I may need your favor......"
"What?"
"This guy is drunk." Qi Mu Qian said helplessly: "Can you help me send him home together?" β
"Hmm......" Sunset Red hesitated, "I made an appointment with Asma......"
But she paused and said decisively: "Forget it, okay, I'll help." β
I couldn't speak, and my consciousness was also groggy, and I could only feel Sunset Red and Qimu Qian one left and one right, setting me up.
Sunset Red was surprised: "So drunk...... How much did you drink? β
ββ¦β¦ You may not believe it, but he only drank three glasses. β
"Three glasses of spirits?"
"No, three glasses of minimum sake."
"Huh??" Sunset Red laughed incredulously, "Really?? β
I felt her gaze look at me carefully for a moment, and said in disbelief: "It's not pretending...... It's the first time I've met someone who drinks so badly......"
"Who's to say it isn't." Qimu Qian also seemed to think it was rare, and smiled helplessly as she felt a little funny, "It's the first time I've seen it." β
"But who is this kid?"
"Well, his name is Masumi. He is a teacher at a ninja school. β
"Huh, how did you meet? How long have you known each other? Is the relationship good? β
ββ¦β¦ How did you know that...... I met me at the cemetery before, and when it rained, he took me to the meeting place with an umbrella...... Actually, I haven't known each other for long, but this time it's a ...... A second meeting, right? β
Sunset Red didn't believe it, she said narrowly: "I'm not familiar with you, and you still drink with others?" β
"Well...... How can you say it," was teased by her friend, Qi Mu Qian suddenly felt a little difficult to explain, she scratched her cheeks, and said with a little embarrassment: "That's it, I just met ......?" β
"Don't you know he can't drink?"
"I know...... He told me. β
"What ......?"
"But I didn't expect him to be so undrinkable." Qimu Qian sighed in distress.
At this time, I reluctantly recovered a little, and said with difficulty: "It's me...... I want to accompany Akane senior...... Drinking ...... Because...... She's sad ......."
"Oh-" Hearing this, Sunset Red stretched out her voice, squinted her eyes and looked at Qimu Qian and said, "Akane, you actually forced such a cute junior who can't drink to drink with youββ! β
"What the hell! I'm talking about you! Qimu Qian looked at me with a headache and said, "If it's uncomfortable, don't force yourself to speak!" β
"Hmm......" I couldn't breathe.
Seeing this, Sunset Hong smiled and said, "Hey, Qian, people can't drink and drink like this, isn't it a bit too much for you to be murderous?" β
"Red ...... Your smile makes me regret asking you for help. β
"Hahaha, what's the matter. I didn't do anything! β
During this time, my consciousness occasionally fragmented, as if I had fallen asleep, but I quickly and inexplicably woke up.
When I opened my eyes again, my eyes widened as I looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and the unfamiliar ceiling light.
"The Evil God"
"Oops, you're awake?"
At this time, I heard the sound of sunset red.
I was a little weak to prop myself up, and I saw her standing in front of the closet of this Japanese room, holding out a quilt.
"Wait a minute, I haven't made your bed yet."
I felt very thirsty, and my voice couldn't help but be very dry: "...... Akane senior...... This? β
"She's making decanting soup in the kitchen."
Hearing this, I immediately struggled to my feet, followed the sound and smell, and walked outside.
"Masum-kun?" Sunset Red noticed my movement, quickly put down the quilt in his hand, and chased after me in surprise. "Where are you going?"
"I ......"
By this time, I had already seen the kitchen.
Judging by the structure of this Japanese-style building, I guess I was probably taken to Akane Hagi's house.
"Akane Senpai ......"
I arrived at the kitchen without any problems, and I was relieved to see the figure busy in front of the stove.
Sunset Red had already caught up, but seeing that I could still walk, and didn't know what I wanted to do, there was no compulsion to take me back, but just followed me carefully, and was ready to hold me immediately if something went wrong.
"Masum-kun?"
In the warm dim yellow light of the kitchen, Qi Mu Qian turned her head in surprise.
I saw her shoulder-length silver hair tied up at random at the back of her head, so there were a lot of silky strands scattered on the side of her fair and beautiful face.
She took off the green waistcoat from the outer shinobi uniform, and wore only a black high-necked close-fitting top, outlining the outline of her beautiful and mature figureβa slender neck, soft shoulders, slender wrists, and an extraordinarily flexible waist.
She wore an apron, which was exceptionally warm and soft compared to the sleek and sassy image she looked on the outside.
"What's wrong?" She looked at the sunset red and greeted her suspiciously.
"I don't know." Sunset Hong shook her head, "I'll ask you where you are as soon as I wake up, and then I'll come to you directly." β
No......
That's a little too strange to say.
"I just...... I quickly clarified: "Staying alone with the red senior, it would be terrible if the Asma senior knew about it......"
"Poof." Hearing this, Sunset Hong suddenly joked, "What...... Are you afraid that he will come and beat you? β
I was about to answer, but suddenly my feet went soft and I shook.
Qimu Qian's eyes were quick, she grabbed my arm with one hand, and with the other hand, she helplessly untied the apron tie tied behind her and handed it to Sunset: "Then I'll go make his bed." The soup has just been served, so please help me look at the fire. β
Sunset replied briskly, "Okay." β
Seeing that she answered, Qimu Qian grabbed my arm and led me to the room I came out of: "Let's go." β
"But ......"
"Don't worry, don't worry," she said with her eyes curled toward me, her voice reassuring gently, "I'm here." β
