Tokyo Ghost Diary

"That's it, you write first and I'll go out to do some errands." In front of the antique store, Gen Hoshino put on his shoes for going out and said hello to Yu Shimizu who was sitting in front of the desk writing furiously. left.

Shimizu Yu glanced expressionlessly, then lowered his head and continued working, like a ruthless homework machine.

,,,,,,

In the quiet antique shop, only the "tapping" sound of the wall clock on the wall indicated the flow of time. After an unknown period of time, Yu Shimizu finally shook off his sour eyes after finishing his most annoying math homework. wrist.

After flipping through the exercise book full of imitations of someone's handwriting, Shimizu Yu pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "Bloody hell..." He didn't know who he was talking about.

However, just when she was about to get up to pour herself a drink and take a rest, the door of the antique store was suddenly pushed open with a crisp sound of wind chimes.

Shimizu Yu thought it was Gen Hoshino who was back and didn't even want to take a look.

However——“Senior~——!”

An energetic, sweet and pleasant voice broke in, followed closely by a beautiful girl wearing a baseball cap, a white T-shirt and denim shorts who appeared in the antique store.

Shimizu Yuu, who was attracted by the sound, was stunned for a moment. He was a little surprised at how beautiful the girl was, and even more surprised that there were still customers coming to the store in this unlucky place? No...what did the little girl shout when she came in just now? Senior? Oh, acquaintance, that’s okay.

However, just to be on the safe side, Shimizu Yu asked tentatively: "Well, who are you looking for?"

In fact, after entering the door and seeing only a strange girl in the house, Kiryu Ruoha was a little stunned. Her first reaction was that she was looking for the wrong place, but after thinking about it, she really followed the navigation strictly, and The iron sign in front of the door is also marked with the words "antique shop". It can't be wrong, right?

Kiryu Ruoha blinked her bright big eyes and looked at Shimizu Yu with a cute smile: "Hello, I'm looking for Hoshino Gen. Is Hoshino-senpai here?"

"Oh, he, he has been out for a while, he should be back soon. Speaking of which, you are..." Yu Shimizu is a little curious about the relationship between this lively, well-behaved, and very cute and beautiful girl and Hoshino Gen. , although from the title, it seems to be a relationship between a junior girl and a senior, but thinking about the boy's behavior in school, it doesn't look like he would go to the junior high school to socialize.

"Huh...fortunately I went in the right direction!" Kiryu Ruoha, who seemed to be relieved when she found out that this was indeed Hoshino Gen's residence, patted her chest with a sigh of relief, and then gave Shimizu Yuka a cute and bright smile: "I My name is Kiryu Ruoha, and I am a second-year student at Segawa Private Academy Junior High School.”

After saying that, seeing Shimizu Yu still staring at me with curiosity on his face, Kiryu Ruoha said in surprise as if he had just realized something: "Eh? Are you asking about my relationship with Hoshino-senpai?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a few touches of red glow appeared on his pretty face, like the young cherry blossoms blooming under the white clouds in spring.

His eyes also became evasive, and he seemed to be shy and said: "Actually, I don't know how to define my current relationship with Hoshino-senpai."

After saying that, Kiryu Ruoha scanned the layout of the antique store, then looked at Shimizu Yu who was stunned and asked with a smile: "Do you want to change shoes?"

"...the cabinet...there are disposable slippers in the cabinet..." Qing Shuiyu replied subconsciously in a daze. At the same time, the shock in her heart was no less than the shock on her face.

After all, Kiryu Ruoye's tone and appearance when he spoke just now were too easy to arouse people's imagination.

At this moment, Shimizu Yu completely misunderstood. She swallowed her saliva and her mind was almost blank, wasn't it? That guy actually has a girlfriend? Or a cute girl in junior high school? ! That boy likes someone younger than him? ! Although it is normal for children to fall in love in junior high school these days, that guy... that guy...

Yu Shimizu's thoughts were completely confused. Thinking about the image of Gen Hoshino in her mind, and then thinking about the fact that that guy actually had a girlfriend, this shock almost shattered her worldview.

At this time, Kiryu Ruoha, who had changed into disposable slippers, had already happily arrived in front of the desk: "Can I sit down?"

"...Um, please."

By the way, if you were that guy's girlfriend, you should be more comfortable here than me, right?

Shimizu Yu looked at the girl in front of him who could guess how popular she would be in school without having to go into details. He still couldn't accept the fact that Gen Hoshino actually had such a cute girlfriend.

It's not that Xingyuan is unworthy. After all, in terms of appearance and ability, that boy is definitely a top-notch beast. It's normal for girls to like him, but... But you ignore others in school, and others talk to you. You only embarrass others when you talk to them. You have such a bad personality in private, and you have no sympathy for girls. How can you fall in love when you are like this?

Inexplicably, Shimizu Yu felt irritable and didn't want to do work anymore.

"Ah, by the way, I haven't asked Miss you yet, may I ask you..."

Kiryu Ruoha, who was sitting on the side of the table, also curiously asked Shimizu Yu.

Qingshui Yu was in a state of confusion at this time, so he replied casually: "I am his classmate and I work here."

"Oh - that's it." Kiryu Ruoye rolled his big eyes when he heard this, and his smile became brighter: "That's my senior. The senior is willing to let you work here, senior. You must have a good relationship, right?" "

Upon hearing this, Shimizu Yu, who was already irritable, suddenly became excited: "What's so good! That guy is just one..."

Halfway through her words, Shimizu Yu suddenly stopped. Seeing the curiosity on Kiryu Ruoye's delicate face and the doubts in her big watery eyes, she remembered that the other party was the girlfriend of that boy Hoshino, and that his daughter was behind his back. It was really despicable to say bad things in front of her friends. She pouted glumly, swallowed back her words about the bastard, and said casually: "That's it."

Although she didn't say everything, who is Kiryu Ruoha? Looking at Shimizu Yu's performance just now, and then thinking about Hoshino Gen's usual behavior, she suddenly raised the corners of her pink lips, but her tone did become serious and heavy. A little more:

"It's really hard for me, senior. Hoshino-senpai is good at everything, but sometimes he's not easy to get along with. But you may not know, senior, that Hoshino-senpai is actually a very gentle person. He just became so bad because of the environment in which he grew up. It's just that he lacks love. It's not that he is difficult to get along with, but he just doesn't want to trust others. His coldness and harshness are actually the protective layer he has built for himself. If someone can really get into his heart, then for that person, Gen Hoshino-senpai will definitely be the best person in the world!"

Shimizu Yu stared blankly at Kiryu Ruoha, who looked serious and serious, but made her look even cuter. If she had doubts about Kiryu Ruoha's identity as Hoshino Gen's girlfriend before, then at this moment, she I almost believed it, and felt that if it was the girl in front of me, it would be quite normal for even that boy Gen Hoshino to fall in love with her.

However, what Qingshui doesn't know is that what Kiryu Ruoha just said was not at all what she said, but a few words from the personality profile of Hoshino Gen by the psychologist in the special task force... The most she did was to These are just a few words with some modifications.

Buzz buzz—!

At this moment, the roar of a motorcycle engine stopped in front of the antique store from far away, followed by the sound of wind chimes——

Hoshino Gen opened the door and walked in.
