"So, you've been in Japan for almost three years.

Do you have no idea how to celebrate the New Year here? "After listening to the girl's long-winded complaints,

After hearing the girl's complaint, the boy asked the key question.

Lilo Tsurumi's face fell.

She looked at him with her shining eyes. "I just don't know why we have to ring the bell to wait for the sunrise. Is there a problem?"

"Since you said that, then I'll pretend that there's no problem.

Even though I think it's something that can be found through a simple search on the internet, if you could have moved the mouse earlier, you could have avoided all the things that you complained about, "Jijiro answered calmly.

"…"

She sighed. "Can't you be gentler with me?

I'm already sad enough, but instead of comforting me, you're here to correct me. "

The boy was silent for a second.

"Fine."

He asked in return, "Then, how do you feel now?

Do I still need to comfort you? "

Lilo Tsurumi's dead fish eyes said, "… No need.

I feel much better, thank you. "

Ever since she broke up with Keigo Atobe, Lilo Tsurumi had been afraid to contact Yuji Ninazhi.

Even though the latter had always been a good person in many ways.

At least, he was the kind that would never make others feel bad.

But her skin that was thicker than a city wall was strangely thin when it came to this kind of thing.

Just thinking about how Shinobu had been the matchmaker for the two of them, she was afraid of talking to him.

Even though Shinobu might not ignore the situation and might even be considerate enough to not bring up this topic at all, Tsuru still felt uncomfortable when she saw Lilu in that scenario.

It was one thing to be ashamed of facing Yuji Ninazhi.

But this was like the aftereffects of a breakup.

The inexplicable rejection of a mutual friend with her ex.

It was to the point that as long as the other party was close to Keigo Atobe, the girl would have the urge to run away.

Just like People From Mukugaku.

When the boy with the red hair heard her announce the breakup with Atobe,

There was a startled and somewhat sad expression on his face.

This made Lilo Tsurumi feel that she might have unintentionally destroyed some of his expectations.

His mind was completely calm.

She didn't want to play with him again until she could be indifferent to these things.

Therefore, in the short summer break, she used it to kill time and also to have fun. She began to get closer to Rijiro. In fact, at this time, the only person she could contact was Rijiro.

Out of all the people she kept in touch with, she was the only one who was both free and willing to accompany her. She was the only one who didn't have a good relationship with Keigo Atobe.

Although Jijiro was willing to spend time with her, there was nothing fun about the two of them being together.

As expected, he was the type of person who was extremely independent and capable of taking action. His personality was also serious and resolute. Even if he could spend an entire day with the girl on the streets or in a black tea shop, he was completely unwilling to do anything that he didn't want to do.

… And the two of them had nothing in common when it came to hobbies.

Tsuru sees that Lilu has reluctantly found a way out of this awkward situation. In order to avoid the endless walking on the road and talking face to face in the red tea shop, she racked her brains and finally found the only similarity between the two of them. She suggests that they go to the dojo of the Niyoshi family.

The girl put her palms together, and the way she suggested with a smile was sincere and spirited. She was just looking for a way to have fun.

Jijiro knew a bit about her family background, so she thought that even if they didn't have a common hobby, it was not a bad idea to spend time with each other.

However, the young man with chestnut-colored hair looked at her and was silent for a long time. He only moved his lower lip and whispered, "I don't want to."

Lilo Tsurumi was stunned. "Huh?

I'm very strong, don't underestimate me. "She puffed up her cheeks.

"That's not the reason." Jijiro's expression was still calm. "I don't want to bring a girl home. It'll be misunderstood by my family."

Lilo Tsurumi was speechless.

So, even if the girl didn't want to, the two of them eventually became strolling on the streets or chatting in the black tea shop.

Even if Rijiro was a talkative person, he would get tired of chatting endlessly with the talkative person.

Not to mention, Jijiro was a straightforward person.

As mentioned above, he really didn't treat her as a girl at all. It was a bit contradictory. In other words, he really didn't have the awareness that he should be more gentle and careful with girls.

His attitude towards Lilo Tsurumi was like treating an old friend.

— — Even Keigo Atobe, who used to annoy the girl half to death, didn't treat her like this!!!

Ri Jiruo was truly a smart and upright person, Crane saw that Lilu's heart was tired.

She was rejecting him. "How do you feel now?

Do I still need to comfort you? "

(By the way, Lilo Tsurumi could feel that he was completely serious. Because of this, she felt even more tired). The girl pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and chose to change the topic. "I have tickets for Kurafengdou's concert at the beginning of next month. Do you want to go?"

The boy's long and narrow brown eyes were calm. "I'm not interested."

Lilo Tsurumi puffed up her cheeks and pouted. "It wasn't easy to get the tickets. Anyway, you have nothing to do. Why don't you want to experience a popular idol's concert?"

Jijiro looked away. "Compared to this experience, I'd rather sleep at home."

Lilo Tsurumi: "Sleep in broad daylight?

You??? "

Jijiro: "Why wouldn't I sleep in broad daylight? I'm not a robot."

Seeing Lilu, Tsuru thought of his strict work and rest schedule, and guessed that even if he slept during the day, it was very rare. The young man was self-disciplined to this extent, in fact, calling him a robot was not a problem.

Although the two of them got along quite well, their interests and hobbies were not similar at all. It was very confusing.

Later, Lilo Tsurumi felt that she couldn't bear to drag him along and waste his life with her. She didn't ask him out to play anymore.

The date of school reopening was approaching. She held the two tickets that Kawase Ryota gave her, but she still didn't know who to invite.

In fact, at first, she wanted to go with the person who gave her the tickets — Kawase Ryota. However, he said that he wasn't sure if he would be free on that day. He tactfully rejected the invitation, saying that she would go with a close friend and that it would be fine as long as she had fun.

The girl was so moved that she almost burst into tears. From the bottom of her heart, she felt that he was really the best ex-boyfriend in Neon.

If she wanted to invite someone, it would be better to say it a week or two in advance.

Just then, she flipped through the Christmas and New Year messages in her mailbox. Lilo Tsurumi's eyes stopped at the remark "May Goddess". Her mind was moved.

She displayed her super strong ability and immediately dialed a number.

Girls had common topics in this regard. Momoi Wuyue gladly agreed. The two of them talked a lot about the Asakura Kaze. Later, the topic began to expand wildly.

As they talked, the person on the other side of the phone suddenly asked her, "Hey, there's a gathering of the Miracle Generation next week. Do you want to come and play?

They're all big boys. It'll be boring for a girl like me to sit alone. "

For those who had studied at Emperor's Light High School, the term "Miracle Generation" didn't need to think at all. That was because it was a noun similar to honor, pride, and a symbol. More importantly, the girl had a close relationship with some of them.

Kawase Ryota would sometimes send her some trivial matters, but he didn't mention anything important like the gathering of the Miracle Generation.

The girl was surprised. Just as she was about to ask, Momoi Wuyue added the next sentence.

"But not everyone is here. Xiaohuang Kawase and Tetsukun can't come because of their own matters." She explained.

Kawase and Kuroko can't come because of their own matters.

For some reason, Lilo Tsurumi's first reaction was, "Then, does that mean that Akaji -senpai will participate?"

She thought of the New Year's gift that she received. Even after a long journey and a man-made accident, it still arrived at her side early.

It's been a few days since the New Year. After receiving the gift, Lilo Tsurumi still hadn't thanked Akaji Seishiro.

On one hand, it might be because of mental fatigue and laziness. On the other hand, she didn't know what to do.

Plus, when the New Year's Eve countdown ended and the night sky was burning with magnificent fireworks, she had already sent a group of blessings to all her contacts on her phone. It could be considered that she had already given them her New Year's blessings.

So she also had the thought of "Since I've already said my blessings, I don't need to repeat it, right?"

But no matter what, she still owed them a thank you.

When Momoi heard this, she didn't think much of it and replied cheerfully, "Yes!

It's rare for Akaji to take time out of his schedule to participate in our gatherings.

Compared to Emmie, even though Emmie always proudly says' I won't participate in such meaningless activities', in fact, it has participated much more often than Akaji! "

'It still ignores the other party's objections and calls Emmie Senpai "Emmie".'

Lilo Tsurumi thought to herself and couldn't help but smile. "So you guys gather often. That's nice."

A year ago, at least when she was still dating Kawase Ryota, the relationship between the Miracle Generation was still very stiff. There was an irreparable crack between the companions who used to be so close to each other. It was a change that would cause pain in the hearts of outsiders.

"Actually, it's not that frequent."

Momoi Wuyue chuckled. "But it's really nice that everyone can gather like this once in a while."

"So you want to come and accompany me?

Although I don't know if it's appropriate to be worried about your relationship with Kawase, he's not here now. It's fine if you come, right? "She continued to ask.

Lilo Tsurumi thought for a moment. "Actually, my relationship with Xiaohuang is pretty good now.

You know, he looks smart, but he's actually so innocent that he's cute.

It's still as easy to be with him as usual.

Okay, what's the specific time and place? "

Momoi smiled again and told her the details very slowly.

Lilo Tsurumi wanted to find a piece of paper to write it down, but she was immediately stopped by her. "I'll email you the specific details later. You don't have to go through so much trouble," she said gently.

"Mm, okay," Lilo Tsurumi replied.

The holiday passed by just like that.

Compared to her usual experience, this was a dull and boring holiday.

In the three years she had been in Japan, her holiday life had always been quite colorful. Not to mention the experience of provoking the biker gang in Hamasaki with Ji Da Masaomi, the experience of fighting with Kaisaki Shigo on the streets of Shibuya, the experience of being a follower of Heiwajima Shizuo … Even when she was injured and hospitalized, Tanaka Tom and the people of the Sunan-kai often came to talk to her about the interesting things that happened on the streets. Even Rinya Orihara came to chat with her a few times.

… No, forget it. When the last name was mentioned, the beautiful memories of the past were about to be polluted. It was better to end the topic.

Now, because there was an otaku Akira Tsurumi at home, she didn't wander around everywhere.

But this life where she and Akira Tsurumi took turns to wake each other up, and the two of them casually ate boiled eggs or fried noodles, and picked up the takeout menu at noon and in the afternoon to order food on the phone, was actually a fascinating and wonderful life compared to those exciting and thrilling days.

'Next holiday, I should also take him to the Ikebukuro Sunan-kai as a guest.' Lilo Tsurumi occasionally thought.

And when she was addicted to this dull and stable life that was like cold water, Akira Tsurumi suddenly asked a question.

"Sister, which school do you want to go to in high school?" On a normal afternoon, Akira Tsurumi asked.

Lilo Tsurumi didn't want to answer directly because of some inexplicable shame, but after thinking about it, she felt that there was no need to hide it for a while. "Luoshan." She answered.

“？”

Seeing that the person in front of her didn't understand, she repeated her explanation, "Kyoto's basketball powerhouse high school, it's quite amazing."

Akira Tsurumi this time said "Oh", "Then you also need to go to Kyoto to study in our country's middle school?"

"What's with that expression, so you haven't considered my situation?

Haven't you thought about what I'll do after you go to study abroad? "

"That, that's because it's still early, you won't enter school until the end of March at least." The girl touched her nose guiltily: "I definitely won't not consider you!

Um … That, you want to go to Kyoto with me?

Is that okay? "

Akira Tsurumi nodded.

"Then I'll go online and check the middle school in Kyoto, hehe." She quickly said, under the subtle gaze of the youth, she quickly escaped into her room.

In fact, she really forgot that Akira Tsurumi wanted to go to school.
