Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 33 The Confession of Failure

The teacher in the health room seems to be on leave today. Nozomi Arakawa found medical alcohol and red medicine in the medicine box.

Jinna sat on a chair, and Arakawa squatted down in front of her, dipped a cotton swab in medical alcohol, and prepared to wipe her wound.

"I can do it myself." Shinai blushed slightly.

"Really?" Nozomi Arakawa handed the cotton swab to Marina, "Then you can do it yourself."

Zhennai was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect that he would not do it if he said he would not do it, without any ambiguity at all.

She had no choice but to take the cotton swab to disinfect her knee resentfully, but how could she endure this pain?
As soon as the cotton swab touched her knee, the alcohol irritated her cracked knee, causing her to inhale in pain.

But she still insisted on disinfecting herself, and then applied red medicine.

"I knelt all night yesterday, so my legs must be numb now?" Arakawa Wang said.

"You can see, it's a little bit, but it doesn't matter." Jinna smiled, "Um, do you have time after school today?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Miki wants to thank you in person." Marina said, "Can you please go to Chuangu Hospital to visit her this afternoon, her health is not very good, so she can't come to school yet."

"Patients should rest in peace and recuperate. It's not too late to thank you for later."

"S-That's right."

Marina did not expect Nozomi Arakawa to refuse so firmly.

Miki was pretty and had many suitors. No boy would refuse a pretty girl's request.

— not to mention the girl's thanks.

"I've really gotten to know you these days, Arakawa-kun." Marina sighed.

"Really, maybe you just met another person? The matter between you and Aitiaosha should be over, so I'll go back first."

"Arakawa-kun!"

Shinna stopped him.

"I also want to thank you for saving my friend... Really, thank you very much. I don't even know how to repay this kindness."

Mariina stood up from her chair and bowed deeply towards Arakawa.

Arakawa waved his hands, said nothing, and closed the door of the health room when he went out.

Originally, he wanted money, but he still couldn't get rid of this face.

……

Still a lackluster history lesson this morning.

Finally, it was lunch break. Just as Arakawa and Daisuke were preparing to go to the cafeteria for lunch, Aijosa stood up from his seat.

"Well, can Arakawa-san come to the grove behind the school after school?"

Aijosa lowered her voice, "I have something to say to Arakawa-san."

"Okay." Arakawa nodded.

He didn't even need to think about it, he knew that Ai Tiaosha had come to ask him for a photo.

Regardless of whether Ai Tiaosha posted the photo on the Internet or something else, he would hand over the photo, even if Marina might hate him because of it, he would still give the photo to Ai Tiaosha, this is an agreement.

……

In the cafeteria, Daisuke ordered two portions of pork chop rice.

Nozomi Arakawa and Daisuke sat in a small corner corner, chatting while eating.

"Oh, I didn't expect that Morishita would apologize..." Nakayama Daisuke said with emotion, "Could it be that his conscience discovered it?"

"Maybe the conscience is always there, it's just that I did something wrong." Arakawa Wang chewed on the pork chop.

"Speaking of which, I'm really uneasy recently." Daisuke muttered, "Did you watch TV last night? It seems that someone died recently, and it seems to be a serial murder case. The victims are all women. So far, there have been Four victims."

Arakawa was stunned for a moment, and the image of a ghoul immediately appeared in his mind.

"We are both men, so we should not be in any danger." Daisuke said, "But I have to tell my mother and sister that it is better to stay at home these days. In our country, it always feels too depressing. If a person is depressed for a long time, he will become a pervert...Don't you feel this way?"

"I don't know if it will become abnormal, but it's really bad for mental health if you suppress it for a long time." Arakawa Wang said.

"Besides, don't you feel that the murderer has a cowardly feeling, and only picking weak women to attack is simply a typical bully!" Daisuke said angrily, "Don't let me meet that perverted murderer, otherwise I will go up and down. Use left, right, left, right, BABA to hit him with a set of nirvana."

Nozomi Arakawa was too lazy to complain. Isn't this the life-changing secret book of "Contra"?Mao’s nirvana!
But when he thought that this was a parallel world, he was relieved.

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about reality!" Daisuke said with a bitter face, "What are you going to do for the mock test in the afternoon?"

"Wait, there is a mock test in the afternoon?"

Arakawa stared blankly.

This morning Qiu Xue just put forward the conditions for entering the top three in the school. Is there a test in the afternoon?

Doesn't this mean that they don't even give them a chance to hold Buddha's feet?

Nozomi Arakawa wondered if his sister bought the school teacher to get the time for the mock exam.

"Yes, we are about to enter the third grade, so we have to assess everyone's grades... Hey, you haven't forgotten this, have you?" Daisuke was shocked, "Have you reviewed?"

"no!"

Arakawa Wang was determined, with a hint of sadness in his solid tone.

"Then I'm finished!" Daisuke hugged his head in distress.

"What the hell are you doing if I don't review?"

"It's because you don't review that I'm going to die!" Daisuke grimaced, "Whose work should I copy now?"

Nozomi Arakawa's mood suddenly calmed down.

Who cares, the morning and evening exams are the same, so it seems that the matter of transferring by myself is a certainty.

Since you can't resist, it's better to enjoy...

Thinking about it on the bright side, if I met a girl who liked each other after transferring to another school, wouldn't I have a girlfriend?
Sitting in the classroom in the afternoon, the teacher came in with a serious face and distributed the test papers.

After some dying struggles, Nozomi Arakawa gave up thinking and stared blankly at the ceiling after the exam.

He finally understood something now.

Man is pushed to do everything - except math.

Today is Friday and there are no club activities.

So Daisuke pestered Arakawa Wang to go to KTV again, but Arakawa Wang rejected him on the grounds that his butt was uncomfortable.

"You are so coquettish, you sing with your voice, it's not about your butt, you must have a sore throat!" Daisuke said.

"But the correct way to sing is to exert force on the abdomen, and now my butt hurts when I exert force on my stomach!" Wang Arakawa spoke plausibly.

But Daisuke Nakayama is not discouraged, Arakawa can't look away, he still has many friends in the football club!

When everyone in the classroom was almost gone, Nozomi Arakawa closed the "Mizukage Ninja" comic book and came to the grove behind the school.

At this time, Ai Tiaosha was already waiting there, the setting sun reflected the forest red, and the mottled shade of the trees swayed.

"Awaited?"

"Nothing, just worrying about whether you will come." Ai Tiaosha said.

"You want a photo, right? I'll send it to you now."

Arakawa Nozomi took out his mobile phone. He always meant what he said.

"No." Ai Tiaosha blushed, "Morishita is already preparing to transfer schools, so the photos and the like are no longer needed."

"Really?" Nozomi Arakawa was puzzled.

Why did you call me here if it wasn't for the photo?

Ai Tiaosha took a deep breath.

"Arakawa-kun, I like you, please, please date me!"

It seemed to take all of her strength to utter the words, but that was about the volume.

But it is undeniable that she fell in love with Nozomi Arakawa who saved herself from bullying.

Nozomi Arakawa was a little overwhelmed.

It would be fine if the girl he liked was there, but he had no feelings for Ai Jiaosha.

Some trouble, should I reject her, or should I reject her?

But direct rejection might hurt the girl's heart, right?

What should I do?
By the way, why don't you think of a reason to make her hate me?
In the brief silence, Arakawa Wang racked his brains.

Suddenly Daisuke Nakayama's face flashed in his mind.

Brothers!
It's up to you!

"I'm sorry." Arakawa Wang closed his eyes deeply.

Ai Tiaosha's lips trembled.

"Can, can I ask the reason? Do you have someone you like?" Aijousha refused to give up.

Although I look very ordinary, girls can become beautiful through makeup, and I have confidence in my figure!

As long as I work hard to change myself... I will definitely be able to compare with the girl Arakawa-san likes!

"Actually," Arakawa Wang said with a deep expression, "I like men."

Ai Tiaosha petrified on the spot, the expression on his face was stiff, his whole body was like a sculpture.

She really wanted to deny this statement, but looking at Nozomi Arakawa's serious eyes, and then thinking that Daisuke Nakayama usually came to stick to Nomo Arakawa when he had nothing to do, Aijosa's three views split.

It turns out that's the kind of relationship they have.

No wonder Zhongshan and Arakawa-kun have such a close relationship. They must have...already...

"The friendship between men is sometimes not necessarily pure."

Nozomi Arakawa gently pressed his chest with his right hand, lowered his eyes, and smiled softly as if remembering something beautiful.

Under the setting sun, Ai Tiaosha froze first, then ran away in embarrassment.

The first first love in her life... Oh no, the first time she confessed to her crush, it just ended in failure.
