The girl under the cherry blossoms, her smile is like a flower

"Brother Feng!"

"Kyomiya-san!"

The two girls ran over anxiously. Rina stood directly in front of Qing Gongfeng, looking at this and that. After checking around and finding that everything was fine, she took a long breath.

Yuka Hazuki saw a familiar face.

"Kyueda?!"

"Yuhua..."

A very forced smile appeared at the corner of Koike Hisae's lips, and things got worse. Koike Shizuko stood quietly behind her and called "Hazuki-senpai". She had met Hazuki during the last video call at Forest School. Flower once.

Hazuki Yuka immediately understood the cause and effect. She pointed at the middle-aged man lying on the wall who was still rocking for some reason, with an angry expression on her face.

"Is he the one bullying Hisue?"

She just saw it before her eyes. This hateful man not only harassed Hisae, but also beat up Kiyomiya-san. It was so bad!

This was also the first time Qing Gongfeng saw Ye Yuehua angry. How should I put it, his whole person became vivid instantly.

"...This is my father," Koike Hisae's expression was dull and his voice was apologetic, "I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone."

"what?!"

Yuka Hazuki covered her mouth, and her eyes suddenly changed when she looked at the middle-aged man. She was a little disbelieving and confused. She didn't understand why Hisue's father had a conflict with Kiyomiya-san.

"Sister, father seems to have fainted."

Koike Jingzi tugged on Koike Jiuzhi's clothes, and suddenly, several people looked at the drunken man lying on the wall.

Qing Gongfeng walked over in two or two steps. Xiaochi's father's eyes had been closed. He checked and found that his breathing was steady. He probably drank too much and got angry before he fainted. According to his experience, , nothing serious.

"It should be fine. Of course, if you're worried, you can go to the hospital for a checkup."

Qing Gongfeng asked the question to the Xiaochi sisters.

"Senior, does it really not matter to father?"

Koike Jingzi asked worriedly.

"From my point of view, it's okay, Xiaochi...uncle is just like falling asleep."

As if in response to Qing Gongfeng's words, Xiaochi's father started snoring the next second.

Several people felt relieved.

However, Sister Xiaochi was in a bit of trouble. The adult man, who was almost incapacitated, was very heavy. With two thin girls, it was naturally difficult for him to take him home.

"In this case, I will send Uncle Koike home. Hazuki-san, please go with me. As for Rina," Qing Gongfeng touched Rina's little head and said warmly: "Rina will go home with the Minister first. ”

Qing Gongfeng has thought about this allocation. They are all friends, and they will definitely help if they can.

Hazuki Yuka is friends with Koike Hisae, and is also a friend with Rina. It would definitely not be good for him to go to a girl's house in the middle of the night, so he asked Hazuki Yuka to accompany him as a friend of the two, so that Rina can rest assured. Some.

Rina nodded reluctantly. She actually wanted to go, but she didn't know Koike Hisae, so she couldn't help or speak. It would only be embarrassing if she went, but luckily Yuuka-chan was there.

After giving Rina a gentle hug, Qing Gongfeng, with the help of the Koike sisters, lifted Koike's father on his shoulders. Suddenly, the strong smell of alcohol enveloped him, and the smell was not pleasant.

"I'm really sorry to trouble you, Kiyomiya-san."

Koike Hisae's expression at this moment was extremely complicated, like a stray cat that was suddenly fed by someone. It was timid and shrinking, not daring to accept other people's kindness, and afraid that the warmth would be fleeting.

"Thank you, senior."

The two of them walked behind Qing Gongfeng and supported him a little. Not far away, Chiyo from Huashanyuan arrived late.

"Mr. Buchou, I will leave Rina to you. Please send her home."

Hanayamain Chiyo stopped and nodded.

She had just walked a little faster than usual, and the weather was sultry, and she was already sweating, so she didn't see anything.

However, she probably guessed some.

Watching Rina and Hanayamain Chiyo get into the car, Kiyomiya Kaede carried Koike's father on his back and walked towards Shinjuku Station with the three girls.

This combination is really strange. It attracted the attention of many people along the way. Qing Gong Kaede didn't care, Koike Hisae was obviously thinking about something, Koike Shizuko kept excited eyes on Qing Gong Kaede, and the thin-skinned Hazuki Yui The flower has lowered its head.

None of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Fortunately, this place was not far from Shinjuku Station. Even though Qing Gongfeng was carrying an adult man on his back, he still walked at a slow pace. Within a few minutes, several people arrived at the station.

After explaining clearly to the tram mediator, he entered the carriage. There were many people inside. A few people found a corner. Naturally, they no longer had to carry people on their backs in the tram. Qing Gongfeng put Xiaochi's father down and held him up. With one arm, he leaned on the armrest.

"Kyomiya-kun, I'm sorry, and thank you."

I don’t know how many times Koike Hisae has said similar words.

He smiled helplessly.

"Xiaoike-san, please raise your head."

Koike Jiuzhi raised his little face obediently and stared at Qing Gongfeng without blinking.

"No one can guarantee that their life will be smooth sailing, so at this time, the importance of friends is revealed. Help each other and get out of trouble together. In the end, all we need to do is laugh together."

When he said that, Qing Gongfeng glanced at Hazuki Yuka, and Hazuki Yuka happened to be looking at him. Suddenly, that rainy afternoon seemed like a new sprout emerging from his memory.

"Yes, Kiyomiya-san is right," Yuka Hazuki grabbed Koike Hisae's hand, "Kunee, everyone is a friend, and there is no need to say thank you or sorry between friends."

Koike Hisae felt his eyes heat up and opened his mouth, but could not speak. He turned his face to look at the night scene outside the window.

After a long time, she softly said "hmm".

Shizuko Koike saw this scene in her eyes, and all the melancholy in her heart disappeared. While sighing that her sister had made a good friend, the thoughts she had in her heart also became more determined.

She looked at Qing Gongfeng, her eyes burning, and her little fists clenched quietly.

Koike's home is in Nakano District, not too far from Shinjuku Station. Koike Hisae must have valued this, so he worked part-time near Shinjuku Station.

After getting off the car, Qing Gongfeng carried Xiaochi's father on his back. Under the leadership of Xiaochi's sisters, he turned several corners and came to a house that looked very old.

The street lights were a little dim, and from time to time they would suddenly dim for a moment, only to return to their original brightness after a few seconds.

It had just rained. If you are not careful, you might step into a puddle. The roads here are obviously not well maintained.

Koike Jiuzhi took out the key from his bag and opened the courtyard door. Several people walked in. Qing Gongfeng smelled the smell of earth after the rain.

"You two, please come in. There's a bit of a mess at home. I'm sorry."

Koike Hisae turned on the lights in the room. Qing Gongfeng stood in the entrance and looked in. The living room was simply decorated, but it looked very clean, but it was a little too clean and lacked a lot of life.

"There's no need to change your shoes, it's just time to mop the floor."

Seeing Qing Gongfeng and Hazuki Yuka standing at the entrance and not coming in, Koike Hisae knew what they were thinking and said this.

"This floor is cleaner than my hands, so there's no need to mop it. Besides, our shoes are full of mud and water, and it's hard to clean them up if they get on the floor."

Hazuki Yuka also nodded. From her usual exchanges with Koike Hisae, she knew some of the situation of the Koike family, but now it seems that what she thought was too simple.

Most of the burden of life falls on the two sisters. They study, work part-time, and are responsible for housework.

Understanding that the two just didn't want to cause trouble to themselves, Koike Hisae warmly accepted their kindness and took out two pairs of slippers from the shoe cabinet.

"I haven't had any guests at home for a long time. My slippers have been left there for a long time and are gathering dust."

"It's okay Hisae, Kiyomiya-san and I will be here soon."

As she spoke, Yuka Hazuki put on her slippers and neatly placed the small leather shoes she had taken off aside.

However, Qing Gongfeng had some trouble changing his shoes. He was about to ask Hazuki Yuka to help support his arm and rub the shoes off himself when Koike Hisae squatted down.

She grabbed Qing Gongfeng's heel, raised her delicate little face and said.

"Kiyomiya-kun, please lift your feet first."

"...Actually, it doesn't have to be like this. I can take it off myself." Qing Gongfeng was a little uncomfortable. His wife squatted down to change her husband's shoes when he came back from work. He had only seen this kind of thing on TV, let alone He said it was the first time in his life that a beautiful female classmate changed his shoes like this.

"It's okay, Kiyomiya-kun just lift your feet."

Looking into Koike Jiuzhi's eyes, Qing Gongfeng felt a little touched in his heart, and he slowly raised his legs.

It was obviously the same pair of eyes, but they were very different from the ones when they first met.

At that time, Qing Gongfeng and Hazuki Yui finished their day shift and walked to the club activity building, where they met Koike Hisae. This was the first time Qing Gongfeng and her met.

The long and narrow fox-like eyes reveal a hint of cunning, pride and disdain, as well as the sparkle when seeing prey.

But now, those eyes are still beautiful, but the tenderness and tenderness inside make people feel their heart for no reason.

After changing into slippers with the help of Koike Hisae, Qing Gongfeng carried Koike's father and walked into his room.

After some actions, Xiaochi's father was placed, and they walked out and closed the door.

For a moment, after hearing no noise outside, Xiaochi's father slowly opened his eyes while lying on the bed, his face no longer arrogant and angry.

His eyes were blank, and there was uncontrollable nostalgia and sadness in his cloudy pupils.

"Hitomi..."

"Kyueda, Shizuko..."

"sorry..."

"sorry......"

"..."

Two lines of hot tears finally flowed down. The middle-aged man choked silently on the moonless night.
