Chapter 63: Inumaki's Thoughts

＊＊＊

The weather was very hot when Tiantian, Maki, Panda, Toge and Junpei first arrived in Yokohama, they were immediately sweating profusely after getting off the train.

Tiantian looked back at Toge and found that the boy couldn't help but pull down the high collar around his face because it was too hot, but he might be worried that the curse mark on his face, which looked like a tattoo, would attract strange looks from passers-by, so he was a little evasive and restrained.

"..."

Toge was looking around and suddenly saw Tiantian staring at him. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes began to wander.

He seemed to want to come up and say a few words to Tiantian, but he didn't know what to say. His hesitant steps made him look like he was immersed in an awkward vortex.

"Everyone, wait in the shade for a while."

Tiantian silently retracted her gaze, walked forward and took Maki and Junpei's arms to lead them to a relatively cool and quiet corner, by the way, she put Maki's shoulder bag on the stool beside her.

"I'll go buy some cold drinks for everyone to cool down first."

The weather was as hot as a greasy sauna.

Jujutsu Tech couldn't produce many precious eggs in a year. Satoru still entrusted them to her with full confidence, if she could take care of them, she should take good care of them, but she must not drift and bring these boys and girls into the hot ditch.

"Sister, let me do this little thing—"

Junpei had just put his bag on the stool, and he was no longer sleepy when he heard this.

The boy immediately spoke in a high-pitched voice and raised his right hand.

His eldest sister was a dragon among men, how could he let her do such a thing as buying drinks?

This was a waste of talent.

Maki: "..."

The heat on the pony-tailed girl's forehead was immediately covered with cold sweat, and her originally dazed expression turned into dead fish eyes.

Maki didn't know if it was her illusion. Before this junior brother met Tiantian, he was as timid as a mimosa. When communicating with others, he half lowered his head and was as quiet as he could be.

Then Tiantian came.

Oh my God, this was a wild horse running around everywhere, just like taking seven or eight bottles of stimulants. It's as excited as it could be.

"It feels like Junpei came to a new school and found that the school bully here is actually his cousin."

Panda patted Maki's shoulder and said secretly.

This was to find a backer.

Maki: "...stop saying these kinds of weird complaints. It always feels like you are talking about others behind their backs, which makes me feel guilty."

The pony-tailed girl's eyebrows twitched, and she slapped Panda's big paw expressionlessly.

"No, Junpei, sit here and take a good rest. Don't get tanned. It's very sunny outside."

Tiantian rejected Junpei's kindness.

After all, her golden cicada shell was a product of the system, so she was not afraid of wind and sun, but the shells of these boys and girls were real flesh and blood.

East Asians have always regarded white as beautiful, so it was better to stay out of the sun.

"Sister Tiantian... are you familiar with Yokohama? Or I'll go buy it." Maki stood up from the stool and asked.

"Sit down, everyone sit down, I have no problem at all, don't worry."

Tiantian pushed Maki on the chair and said without question.

When she turned her head to look at Toge.

When Tiantian wanted to pull him over, he never thought that the Inumaki boy automatically took a step back and shook his head at Tiantian.

Tiantian: "..."

Tiantian: "...?"

Facing Tiantian's confused eyes, Toge nervously took out his mobile phone, moving in a flustered manner.

Toge's fingers tapped on the screen crisply, typing on the phone while looking at everyone's gazes on him awkwardly. Finally, he couldn't wait to show the phone screen to Tiantian.

[I'll go with you, please don't refuse. I haven't spoken for a long time, I can talk with you.]

Toge placed the phone in front of his chest, like a girl holding her heart. His big purple eyes blinked at Tiantian, full of expectation.

Since the boy said so, if Tiantian refused again, it meant that she had low emotional intelligence and did not give face to others.

"Oh, okay." Tiantian said nonchalantly and touched the back of her head.

"If that's the case, please trouble Toge to go with me."

"Takana!"

Toge got the ideal answer, his eyes brightened. Tiantian waved to everyone and left with Toge.

The remaining Panda, Maki and Junpei looked at each other.

After a long time, Maki spoke slowly with a dull face.

"Do you think... Toge has that intention towards Sister Tiantian?"

The pony-tailed girl's face was intertwined with "inexplicable" and "confused" expressions, and she lowered her voice to ask Panda.

Panda: "..."

Panda: "...this, I don't know, it shouldn't be possible..."

The two showed confused expressions and looked at each other with embarrassed faces.

If Toge didn't mean that, his energy of sticking to Tiantian all day long was obviously abnormal.

An adolescent boy followed a girl for no reason. No matter how you think about it, there was a story behind it.

But... if Toge was interested in Tiantian...

Uh...

What did he want from her?

What kind of intense scene with "sparks and lightning" could make Toge and Tiantiann have such a special spark?

Could it be that Toge was a "face lover" as his name suggests? Because he liked her looks?

This was not impossible.

"Um... what are you talking about?"

Junpei spoke softly with curiosity and ignorance.

He was distracted for a moment, and when he turned around, he heard Maki and Panda talking about "Sister Tiantian" and "Toge", and Junpei didn't hear the rest clearly.

What happened between them? Was there a conflict between them?

Then why did Inumaki-senpai follow his sister?

Could it be that they negotiated privately to resolve the conflict?

Junpei: "..."

Brainstorming, Junpei's expression soon became unhappy, and he cast a slightly suspicious look at Maki and Panda.

Seeing this, Maki hurriedly said, "...nothing, we are discussing the team's task process."

It's better not to let this "siscon of the second dimension bloody setting" know about discussing other people's feelings behind their backs.

But speaking of this, Maki suddenly noticed something.

"By the way... Junpei... Have you noticed that when you are with Sister Tiantian and when you leave her... you are in two different states?"

Now he looked quite normal, and had become a gentle and polite junior again, speaking in a soft voice, it made people feel comfortable.

Unlike before, he was so excited that he was grinning.

Junpei: "Eh...? Is that so...? I don't think I paid much attention..."

The boy looked confused.

He didn't feel anything special.

Did he?

•

"Toge, you don't have to be restrained when you are with me. We are of the same generation. You can relax with me."

Looking at Toge walking beside her with his head down, Tiantian felt a little awkward and embarrassed, so she spoke to Toge.

She didn't know if it's an illusion, Tiantian thought that Inumaki-kun should not hate her, and seemed to be quite happy to get along with her. After all, since crossing here, the two have been friends for dinner.

In the Chinese family, as long as they have meal together, they were more or less nodding acquaintances, and the relationship was basically not bad.

But she didn't know what this Inumaki-kun was thinking. He always felt restrained when he came to her, and a good chat often turned into an awkward stare.

He looked at her all day long, and she didn't know what's so good about her.

Could it be that this Inumaki-kun was fooled by her dazzling leather? And then he was tempted by her beauty?

Tiantian had thought about this question during the days of getting along with Toge.

But she thought about it carefully and felt that this possibility was very small.

After all, life was not anime or novels. How could there be so many opportunities for a turtle and a green bean to fall in love?

Moreover, with her style and image, let alone Toge— if Tiantian's future son brought back a daughter-in-law like this, she would be shocked to the point of having a brain thrombosis on the spot.

This was not just bringing back a person.

This was brought back a donkey. [1]

"I'm sorry... did I embarrass you?"

Toge tilted his head slightly, carefully observing Tiantian's expression, with some apology and loss in his eyes.

He actually felt that he was a very boring person.

Tiantian had said that she would go out alone to buy cold drinks, but for some reason, he wanted to follow Tiantian out.

At that time, there was a feeling in the dark, as if an invisible hand spread out from his chest, wanting to grab some opportunity.

But even he himself didn't know what opportunity he wanted.

Tiantian didn't refuse at the time, maybe just didn't want to embarrass him.

In the end, would Tiantian feel like he was a lot of trouble?

Tiantian: "..."

Tiantian was stunned by this question.

The hell, the boy was so direct.

Then, she quickly denied the fact that she was embarrassed again.

"You are being so formal. What's awkward about our relationship?"

"I've said that we are closer than siblings here. What I mean is that you just need to be yourself in front of me. Don't be restrained or feel..."

When Toge heard this, for some reason, he became even more anxious than before, "I'm sorry Tiantian, I don't want to call you sister like everyone else."

Tiantian was puzzled, "It's all right. You can call me whatever you want. Don't mention you calling me sister, I can call you sister if you like."

"I... I don't mean that!"

Toge was really anxious, and his face was about to turn red.

*bump*

The boy was about to explain himself, but a blind passerby bumped into him straight away.

Tiantian was quick and pulled Toge over, but even so, Toge was still hit on half of his shoulder.

"What's wrong with you?"

Tiantian's eyes turned cold, and she looked at the person who bumped into Toge with a bad face.

If you don't take the road to heaven, you would force your way into hell. Even if they stand so close to the side, they could rush over like a French bulldog.

It's a pity not to get a vision correction for this eye.

"...cough... cough..."

The boy who bumped into Toge raised his head and looked at the two people with a facial expression, then coughed twice.

It was obviously summer, but the boy's pale face and dark long clothes were particularly gloomy in the daytime.
