I play love guru in Tokyo

Chapter 199 The Chaos of Fermentation

Everyday life flows at your fingertips.

On a sunny afternoon, the organ Xiazhi carefully read the library, closed it again, and looked at the empty literature department a little strangely.

A few days ago, Senior Sister Yi Chuan stopped coming to the Literature Department, and she didn't know what happened.

Could it be that he felt awkward and awkward because of what happened to Kashiwahara?
After thinking about it, Organ still sent a LINE to Yi Chuan-senpai.

It wasn't until the evening when she packed her schoolbag and was about to leave that she received a message from Yichuan Liulixue:
[There are some things at home recently, sorry. 】

The simple message was mixed with a hint of urgency, Organ put away the phone, since the senior sister didn't intend to say, she wouldn't ask.

three days later

When the organ was in the literature department and felt a little lonely, she heard the sound of the door being opened after a long time. She raised her face with a smile, but she was shocked when she saw the person coming.

Undoubtedly, it was Yi Chuan-senpai, but she became thin and haggard, her pale face was bloodless, and her whole body seemed to have lost weight out of thin air.

"Sister, you..."

"fine."

Yichuan Liulixue turned away with a forced smile.

The witty organ didn't speak again, but glanced at the senior from the corner of her eye, and she was keenly aware of the sudden change in the senior.

Things are definitely not small.

Yichuan Liulixue, who was still unable to concentrate when discussing illustrations with the organ, finally carried her schoolbag, saying that she might not be able to come to literature often recently and said goodbye.

Organ frowned, thought for a while, packed up the Literature Department, and walked up the stairs towards Class A of the third grade.

It just so happened that there was another boy on duty in the class, and the organ politely knocked on the door, nonchalantly asking about what happened to Yi Chuan-senpai recently.

The other party didn't know the organ, so he thought it was Yichuan's classmate, but he said suspiciously that Yichuan Liulixue hadn't come to school for the past week.

This made the organ even more surprised. She didn't come to class for a week, what happened.

Thinking of her senior's lifeless eyes, Organ secretly remembered it in her heart.

……

The tram that Yichuan Liulixue took was not the usual route, but a restaurant.

It would be a surprise to be known by friends, because Yi Chuan, who is preparing for the college entrance examination, should not be working part-time outside of class at this time.

The girl who had changed into the orange overalls looked at her devastated face in the mirror and managed to pull herself together.

Today she was going to explain to the organ junior, otherwise she should have gone home to cook for Yang Tai as soon as school was over, and then rushed to the part-time job without stopping.

After packing up and closing at nine o'clock in the evening, and saying goodbye to the store manager, Yi Chuan walked to the tram stop, and it was already past ten o'clock in the evening when he rushed home.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his younger brother sitting in front of the TV and staring at him. How could the little boy remember anything? He would not understand the meaning of his mother's collapse.

Because Yichuan Liulixue coaxed his mother to be sick, and she will recover soon.

"elder sister."

When passing by the living room, Yi Chuan was going to take a bath, and Yota called his sister in a low voice:
"When will mom be back?"

Looking at her aggrieved younger brother, Yichuan Liulixue forced a smile:
"Soon, mom will be back soon."

"But the food is cold these days, and it's all potatoes and bean sprouts..."

"Hey, just bear with it for a while."

Because of her aunt's illness, Qiu Ling's cousin and the store manager applied to switch to the morning and evening shifts. After taking care of her aunt in the hospital during the day, she would go home to cook and then go to work. Yichuan Liulixue and her cousin took turns going to the hospital to take care of her mother who was lying in the hospital bed.

At this time, she was coaxing her younger brother as usual.

After bathing, she urged Yota to go to bed.

"No, sister, it's not eleven o'clock yet..." Yang Tai coquettishly refused to go back to the room.

"Youta!"

Suddenly, Yi Chuan yelled and startled his younger brother. When the young boy turned his head and saw his sister's cold face, he turned his head nervously. He trotted to the bathroom to wash up and returned to the room obediently.

Yi Chuan pursed his lips, and leaned against the wall weakly, just at this moment, cousin Qiu Ling opened the door and came back.

"Liu Lixue, Auntie is fine."

Every time she came back, the cousin would comfort her in this way, and she didn't know what to do even though she was taciturn.

"I've been bothering my cousin recently..."

"fine."

Yichuan Liulixue hid in the corner of the small room, silent under the dim light, her helpless pupils reflected in the dark windows.

I still remember the despair after hearing the news a few days ago, as if the sky was falling.

What my mother had was gastric cancer, in the middle stage, also called advanced gastric cancer.

Gastric cancer has a very high cure rate in the early stage, but there is almost no hope of cure in the advanced stage, and Yichuan's mother's condition is in between.

In a regular hospital, after receiving reasonable treatment, it may be cured well, or it may not be cured, and no one can tell clearly.

No one wants to watch their family members die, so even though the mother objected and wanted to be discharged from the hospital, Liu Lixue and her cousin tried their best to persuade her to stay. Relatives who heard the news from their hometown also visited the hospital recently.

Although she reluctantly persuaded her mother to wait for treatment, Yi Chuan's mother also lost her job. After all, her poor physical condition is really not suitable for going to work.

Then there is a more serious problem, where will the cost of cancer treatment come from.

Not to mention whether advanced gastric cancer is curable or not, even the cost is astronomical for the Yichuan family.

The doctor seriously explained that Yichuan's mother's stomach cancer is relatively serious, and she is already in the late stage of advanced gastric cancer.

A conservative estimate is at least 300 million to 500 million yen.

What is even more desperate is that even if the operation is performed, it may not be successful.

I raised money from relatives, but this is an ordinary family, so I can't raise much.

Bite the bullet and endure the confusion and helplessness of the future, Yichuan Liulixue has recently been working part-time in the restaurant after school, and helping out in the amusement park on Saturdays and weekends. She can barely maintain the current situation, but it is not enough for the cost of the operation.

Yichuan Liulixue, who has already lost her father, does not want to lose her mother to bear the pain of parting, no matter what, even if the sky collapses and the earth collapses, she still has to grit her teeth against the depression of the mountains.

Even though this frail girl has recently shown her amazing strength, she will still hide in the corner of the room sobbing late at night.

The current pain and difficulties are nothing, but what is even more desperate is that the future cannot see the direction of the future.

The girl huddled in the corner buried her face in her knees, and slowly raised her reddish eyes after a long time.

The girl draws someone with a pencil without saying a word, even though she tries to draw the cheerful and sunny smile of the person she loves, which is the most caring she lacks at the moment.

Unknowingly, however, what was drawn was a portrait of an expressionless figure staring at him, a portrait of Kashiwahara who would never have shown such an expression at that time.

click...

The tip of the pen broke, and with the sound of tearing, the broken pencil was deeply engraved on the drawing board behind the manuscript paper.

'Student...'

Under the dim light, the girl with her head bowed whispered the name of the person she loved. How much she wanted to be cared and saved at this moment, and to feel the warm embrace of her junior to dispel the despair in her heart.

However, Kashiwahara-san must be hugging another girl and showing the smile she most wants to see.

Unknowingly, the pencil at Yichuan Liulixue's fingertips kept trembling.

The manuscript paper with portraits was torn all over the floor.

The shadow that sat withered until late at night did not move for a long time.

In the distance, an embarrassing bark came through the window.
-
On LINE, Ono Miwa invited Kashiwahara to the commercial street in Bunkyo District.

By the way, Kashiwahara honestly told Asaba about the childhood sweetheart Miha Ono.

"..."

Asagi, who thought she would get to the bottom of it, just glanced at him, as if she was satisfied with his initiative to inform, she snorted lightly and ignored it, and didn't warn her.

Facing the flow of people, I sat down with Miu Ono in a very nice coffee shop, there were not too many people inside.

Miha Ono pulled Kashiwahara with ease, ordered a cup of matcha latte and cream puff dessert, and asked Kashiwahara what he wanted with a smile.

"Yeah, is Miha's boyfriend?"

The young female clerk seemed to be quite familiar with Ono, taking advantage of Kashiwahara's scrutiny, she secretly pulled Miu Ono and whispered.

"Hee hee." Ono just showed an ambiguous smile. The young clerk didn't know why, but he looked at the delicate lines of Kashiwahara's cheeks and snickered. It should be Ono's boyfriend, right?It was the first time in a long time that Ono brought friends of the opposite sex here.

Kashiwahara finally smiled and ordered a glass of freshly squeezed juice and milk pancakes.

"Hey, do you only drink juice when you come to the cafe, Kashiwahara, you are very strange."

Ono rushed to pay, and sat in a corner of the coffee shop with Kashiwahara.

Listening to the soft melody, Bai Yuan smiled, he is not used to drinking coffee.

The female store manager was taking care of the green plants outside the coffee shop at the door, Bai Yuan looked away, but was very curious about Ono's purpose.

There are girls who keep inviting him for no reason, and they are still childhood sweethearts. This time it is definitely not the three major illusions in life. Kashiwahara doubts whether Miu Ono likes him.

Logically speaking, Kashiwahara should not make a wrong judgment.

However, what is interesting is that he saw that Miu Ono acted like a close friend and didn't overdo it, and she didn't mean to confess, she just often invited herself to go shopping together.

In this case, Kashiwahara can't just say 'I'm sorry, I don't like you'

If Ono didn't like him, it would be terribly embarrassing, and he was acting affectionate by himself.

Kashiwahara bit the milk pancake, and suddenly regretted that he had invited Ono to a few meals.

Of course, it was just a joke. Since Ono Miha treated her like a friend, Kashiwahara also treated her with the same attitude. During the chat with Ono, I found that she would not intentionally bring up some ambiguous topics, but instead just talked about interesting daily life. "Dating" and "confession" are completely irrelevant.

Miu Ono said that she wanted to buy some personal items, and asked Kashiwahara for reference, such as which color hairpin looks good...

At about 07:30, under the glow of neon lights, we said goodbye.

Watching Kashiwahara leave, after a while, another female high school student wearing a peaked cap approached Miu Ono.

"Yeah, Bo Yuan really looks good when he smiles."

At this time, Ono Miu showed a nympho that she would never have when she was with Kashiwahara.

Izumi Ryoka on the side saw it in her heart, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

I walked around the beauty store with the giggling Meiyu, and they didn't take the tram home together until nine o'clock.

The girl's body swayed slightly with the tram, staring absently at the figure on the window in a daze, and suddenly saw Miha kicking her calf and tilting her head to look at her contentedly:
"Linghua, I seem to really like Kashiwahara."

She said with a slight smile, as if from the bottom of her heart.

"Is it?"

Izumi Ryoka also showed a smile, and suddenly talked about the exam.

When they got off the platform and got out of the station, the homes of the two girls were not far apart. When they first found out about this, they were quite happy.

Bathed in the cold moonlight, only the sound of pattering footsteps could be heard, and Izumi Linghua fell slightly behind her, staring at her best friend in front of her with complicated eyes.

Recently, Miu and Kashiwahara's passionate relationship has been seen by her eyes. Every time Miu would excitedly tell her some interesting stories with Kashiwahara, as if she was a girl who fell in love and longed for her first love. At that time, Izumi Ryoka would always With a smile on his face, he responded nonchalantly.

But at this moment, her eyes are full of complexities, with loneliness, silence, and a slight disgust in them.

Going to the crossroads under the sycamore tree and preparing to say goodbye, Miu Ono stared playfully at the fallen leaves under her feet.

Izumi Ryoka, who was silent for a long time along the way, finally couldn't bear it, and suddenly stopped her friend.

"What's wrong?" Ono tilted his head in doubt.

"I have to tell you Kashiwahara Kiyoaki's true face."

Izumi took a deep breath, with a serious expression on his bright little face.

"Eh?"

Ono was taken aback.

"Actually, Kashiwahara Kiyoaki is not as gentle and handsome as he looks on the surface. He has a very dark mind and likes to play with women's feelings. When he was dating me before, he was dating other women at the same time. This guy is really bad Well, in the end he said nonchalantly 'Isn't this normal', a complete scumbag, a scumbag, a bastard who takes pleasure in harming women, his temperament has confused many people, as far as I know, the second grade and There are quite a few girls he has been entangled with, and he likes to see girls being cheated and revealing his true expression of despair, he is such a pure bastard..."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Izumi had no time to catch his breath, and looked at his friend seriously:

"If you fall in love with such a guy, it is definitely a terrible thing. I didn't make it clear to you before... Now I see you getting deeper and deeper..."

"Eh, so?"

The slim girl was stunned, and responded with some surprise.

"Yes, that's it!"

Izumi Ryoka clenched her slender fists and swore that, although she felt uncomfortable and awkward when she slandered Kashiwahara behind her back, after her "artistically processed" remarks contained a lot of private goods, But more is urgent.

She absolutely doesn't want to see her friend getting deeper and deeper, being dragged into the quagmire by Bai Yuan! !

Hequan Linghua thought so, and found an appropriate reason for his current behavior.

"Also...he's dating Asaba Chizuru now, maybe he's dating a senior from the literature department, or even dating an organ...you don't need me to tell you about such a guy..." she added.

After listening, Ono Miha suddenly couldn't help but snort:
"It's not so exaggerated, haha, he admitted to me that he was dating Asaba, as for that senior sister and the organ..."

"You know?!" Izumi Linghua kicked her feet anxiously, and said angrily, "Since you know he has a girlfriend, why..."

"Hee hee, am I not bad?"

Ono Miha blinked:

"Anyway, they're not married, so why can't I pursue them? Hee hee, seeing that he hasn't refused after being with me for so many days, doesn't it prove that he is interested in me?"

Izumi Linghua, who didn't know the truth, only knew that they had a lot of contacts these days, and didn't know what they talked about specifically, but it didn't prevent what Ono said was going to the place she least wanted to think about.

"But, but you actually like such a playful..."

"Hee hee, because I like him, it would be a pity to make Asagi feel that way, what do you think, Ryoka?"

"..."

Looking at the laughing Miha, Izumi Ryoka completely lost her voice, she was shocked by Ono Miha's concept, she should have reprimanded her how could she hold this kind of thought, but she still couldn't say it with her lips pursed, she took two steps back in a daze, and suddenly said Sorry, I hurried home with my schoolbag in my arms.

Under the street lamp, Miu Ono stared at Izumi Ryoka's hurried back.
