[Comprehensive] How to kill a rabid dog gently

Cheng's first encounter with the "Headless Horseman" happened in a video store.

Although the video store is unavoidably ordinary as a stage for legendary creatures, but considering that this Irish goblin, which exists as a fantasy species, lives like ordinary people in modern Japanese society, it seems that this scene is not so absurd.

Of course, this is all for later. What Cheng saw at this time was only a woman who was also wearing a helmet indoors. Although she couldn't see her facial expression, she clearly conveyed distressed emotions-this point Cheng is Judgment made based on the fact that the other party is tightly wrapped in black clothes, but still cannot conceal its graceful curvilinear body characteristics.

To Celty, a headless fairy living in Ikebukuro.For Strullsen, he is indeed distressed now.

Before starting today's delivery work, she suddenly remembered that the new series of "Stranger Things" dvds that she has always loved have been on sale for several days, but due to various reasons, she has not been able to purchase them... Let alone why the headless goblin She is interested in Japanese ghost talk dramas (not to mention being scared occasionally). In short, in order to ensure that the discs can be obtained smoothly, she drove her beloved horse that turned into a black motorcycle and rushed to the nearest video store early in the morning.

What Celti didn't expect was that when she walked into the store, another woman was picking up the last box of "Stranger Things" on the shelf...

Celti immediately groaned in her heart, and (because she lost her head) she did not have the ability to speak, and immediately typed a line of words on the pda frantically, showing to the clerk——

"Is there still stock? Stranger Things?"

"Sorry, that's the last one."

The other party added kindly.

"By the way, since the day before yesterday, several other stores in the surrounding area have been sold out, so this should be the last one in the local area, and the next batch of products may not be released until next month..."

As a result, the mysterious urban legend "Headless Horseman" with a bit of horror and psychedelic color, its body Celti, fell into deep depression.

When she began to regret not actively buying it on the day of release, a pair of white hands handed the disc to Serti.

"Although I am very interested in this series, I just wanted to buy it on a whim on the way. You probably like it more than I do, so if you don't mind...here."

Celti took the disc in a daze, and the other party smiled at her, and then walked out of the video store. Celti looked at the soft back of the other party, until the clerk asked her if she needed packaging.

——What a kind person.

Celti thought, she felt the weight of the disc in her hand, and suddenly felt a new emotion of regret.

—Oops, forgot to thank you.

"The person I admire is a super cute and attractive woman."

Silla sometimes behaves like this, which is in contrast to his lack of interest in the outside world most of the time. When he mentions his unrequited love, he will immediately fall into a state of fanaticism and obsession.

"Obviously, I usually show a mature personality, but I am interested in weird TV dramas such as "Stranger Things", and I am afraid to stay at home alone because I am scared-of course I am very happy to immediately drop out of school and stay with me all the time. She's there, but she's always insisting she at least has to finish school—how thoughtful she is!"

"You should distribute some of the enthusiasm you use here to other areas."

Even Orihara Rinya was getting bored with his chatter that lasted for half an hour. He rested his chin on one hand and leaned against the window sill with his face facing outward, so that no one could find where he was looking.

"Lin Ye? Lin Ye! Are you looking there again?" Silla looked innocent, but told the truth straight to the point, "—the infirmary? Do you care so much? The reason for changing the window seat is to be able to See that corridor outside leading to the infirmary?"

"..."

Lin also paused, and turned to look at him.

"That's it."

"Have you caused trouble for Mr. Kawasaki again? I said Linya, I think you should change your awkward way of doing things occasionally and establish normal interpersonal relationships."

...One of the only two friends of Kishitani Shilla who said such words in his life so far is Orihara Rinya, and the other is Heiwajima Shizuo, and it is through his introduction that the two people who are extremely incompatible Get to know each other and form the now hostile relationship of tit for tat.

If there is only one person in the world who is not qualified to criticize Orihara Rinya's interpersonal relationship, it is Kishitani Shilla.

"Silla..." Lin Ye said, "What kind of position do you use to preach to me?"

"just kidding."

Silla laughed very brightly.

"However, there is at least one aspect in which I am more confident than you in making suggestions. Lin Ye—Why don't you try to like someone?"

"Don't be silly, don't I like a lot of people?"

"It's not in that sense, I mean love... Ah, Lin Ye, you don't want to say that you are in love with all human beings, right? It's not like that... Forget it, I have to force you to understand the meaning of love I’m wrong to have such a beautiful relationship.” Silla sighed, “Let’s put it this way, do you want to find someone who is different to you?”

"No."

Orihara Rin also replied firmly.

"Love must be equal. If something like that happens, it can only mean that my love is polluted by impurities—only this is absolutely not acceptable."

"Oh? That's right."

Kishitani Shilla pushed his glasses, thinking of the headless goblin he loved so much, his eyes became gentle and quiet, and there were other things that were hard to see through.

"If that's the case, Lin Ye..."

He said.

"Then you have to be very, very careful."

The infirmary has become very busy recently.

This is not just because the flu season is gradually entering. Many students who visit the infirmary are not physically unwell... Many of them simply come to talk about their troubles.

Chengya was not quite sure who was the first child to do this. For her, she just talked to the students as usual, understood their feelings naturally, and then gave suggestions naturally.

All in all, I don't know when, the concept of "it's okay to confide anything to the gentle Kawasaki-sensei" gradually spread in Raishin High School, and the infirmary where Cheng worked part-time as a psychological counseling room.

Cheng didn't have any objection to this... It's better to say that to a certain extent, she quite liked this kind of work.

This gave her the opportunity to see the unique rich gestures of "life" itself.

Today, after the last class of the afternoon also started, Cheng finally got some free time.

According to experience, no one will come until after school.

Usually at this time, she might count the medicines, or read a book by herself, or just think aimlessly, watching the clouds in the sky gradually turn into sunset glow.

Orihara, who knocked on the door today, also broke her usual trajectory.

"Orihara-kun, what's the matter?"

"If you come to the infirmary, there is usually only one reason."

Orihara Rin also chuckled, as if he had never had any bets, and he had never done anything bad—or good—as a non-normal student, and he said it as usual.

"It would be great if the teacher would allow me to take a break here."

Even so, Orihara Rinya's attitude did not show any sign of asking for advice. He opened the curtain familiarly, and then lay down on the bed.

The curtain fell again, separating the two people in the infirmary.

Cheng then continued with what she wanted to do just now... She opened the medicine cabinet and checked the remaining quantity and expiry date one by one.

The silence lasted for a while, until Lin also broke the short peace.

"Teacher, have you heard anything interesting recently?"

Cheng continued with the work at hand.

"Whether you have it or not, you can't tell Orihara-kun."

"The teacher is so heartless." The young man said briskly, "But I actually know the most interesting things—does the teacher still remember Honda in class C? The one who tried to steal medicine from the infirmary?"

His clear voice was gradually stained with malice, like a flawless flower petal slowly being infused with the venom dripping from the snake's teeth.

"Actually, I sent him here."

"I told him that if he stole the medicine from the infirmary, he could avoid the trouble of going to the pharmacy to buy a large amount of sleeping pills, and he would not be suspected... In this way, suicide would become very simple."

"In the original plan, if poor Honda-kun died due to this, Mr. Kawasaki must be very painful and blame himself. I really want to see such a teacher..."

"Anyway, I didn't get what I wanted, Orihara-kun."

Cheng just checked the medicine containing sleeping ingredients, she replied calmly.

"Yeah, Mr. Honda not only failed to steal the medicine, but also gave up the idea of ​​suicide because of the teacher's words... I was so surprised that I almost forgot to be depressed."

"Speaking of which, the matter of Hirano has something to do with Orihara-kun, right?"

"Are you talking about that cornered third-year senpai—it's me, too."

There was interest in his tone, childlike innocence, and horribly cruel because of it.

"Sister Hirano, who grew up in a harsh home education environment, unexpectedly found a boyfriend of an unemployed young man in society in order to escape the pressure, and even became pregnant... Isn't it natural that she would be desperate because of her cowardly personality? That's why I suggested that she find Talk to Kawasaki-sensei."

"I'm actually just curious about what the teacher would do... If it is revealed, Hirano-senpai's fragile mental state will suffer a terrible blow, so it is not surprising that she is insane, but if Kawasaki-sensei chooses to help her hide it ... Hirano-senpai's mother is an important member of the parent association committee."

Orihara Lin also said.

"I will dutifully write an anonymous letter to let her know about this incident and Mr. Kawasaki's dereliction of duty. Then it will inevitably turn into a big incident, and the ending may be even worse."

Hearing this, Cheng even bent the corner of his mouth.

"Then, Orihara-kun is probably also disappointed, right?"

"Yes, even I can't imagine how the teacher persuaded Hirano-senpai to confess to her family and get forgiveness. This matter was not even known by a third person... It really hit me hard."

"However, I am also sure..."

"The teacher is indeed a terrible person."

"Really? From this, I am sure that Orihara-kun is a coward who dare not confront me personally."

She put a box of medicine back to its original place, and said unhurriedly.

"What's wrong, Orihara-kun, don't you have the confidence to win..."

She smiled.

"Speaking of which, it's true that we didn't win."

There was silence on the other side of the curtain.

Cheng didn't continue to provoke the other party, but she didn't seem to care about the possibility of the other party being angered. She was still doing her own thing. At this time, she had almost finished checking all the medicines. When she was about to close the cabinet door, Orihara Lin also spoke. up.

"Teacher, I feel a little uncomfortable, can I ask you to come here?"

Combined with the sinister atmosphere at the moment, Lin Ye's abrupt speech sounds like a vortex hiding a deadly reef from any angle.

But just as Lin Ye guessed, this woman who was so calm and conceited still walked towards him.

The shadow she cast on the curtain is getting closer and closer, and Lin can't tell what mood he is in at the moment, he should be very angry, because he seems to feel the blood that is speeding up and rushing through his veins , but his mind was unusually calm.

Like a dormant cheetah, he waited for the other party to approach.

The moment she touched the curtain with her hand and was about to lift it, Orihara Rin also clasped her hand firmly.

He violently pulled her towards him, and at the moment when the other party fell due to loss of balance, Lin Ye wrapped her arms around her waist to remove most of the impact force, and then, the position was reversed, he leaned over and pressed her wrist, He slightly supported his body on his knees, almost straddling her waist.

Cheng's hair spread out in this accident, and the deep chestnut hair with a warm color like honey was in stark contrast to the pure white sheet. Lin Ye's eyes first fell on the end of her hair, and then he stared at the end of her hair. looking into her eyes.

But her eyes are like a windless lake, so gentle and quiet that even the wings of birds passing over the water cannot make ripples.

"Can't even this scare you?"

His voice could be called calm, but Orihara Rin also knew that it was the result of suppressing his anger.

The boy lowered his body and picked off the top button of the opponent with his fingertips.

"In other words, it doesn't matter what I do, teacher?"

Compared with any vague and sticky ambiguity, there are more teeth gnashing emotions in these words, before Lin Ye had time to make the next move, and when Cheng was about to speak——

The door of the infirmary was pushed open.

Orihara Rin could hardly help laughing.

"Don't move, you will notice the shadow on the curtain."

He whispered in Cheng's ear, such a movement created the illusion of being rubbed together.

In fact, sometimes the entanglement of hate has an intimacy that is not inferior to that of love, so Lin also thinks this scene is not very strange.

"What would happen if you were seen... Teacher?"

He called out the title at the end of the sentence deliberately very slowly.

At this time, someone came in, and the other party seemed to be surprised by the empty infirmary. After walking a few steps, he stopped, and stopped at a position less than half a meter away from the two of them, separated by a layer of curtains. .

"Whether it's me...or you, will..."

Lin also continued talking.

If he wasn't leaning against the other party's neck, and he didn't want to end the current situation too easily, he really wanted to see Cheng's expression, find the cracks on that face...and see her composure completely shattered.

What made him a little dissatisfied was that the visitor quickly turned around and left the infirmary, closing the door at the same time.

"so boring……"

Lin also complained in a low voice, straightened up, and for a moment, he loosened the restraint on Cheng, and in this very short moment, Cheng broke free from the other's imprisonment...in turn, he pressed the boy on the bed.

"...Teacher, have you ever learned joint skills or jujitsu?"

Lin Ye's surprise didn't last long.

"never mind……"

He was not troubled by the situation at the moment, he stared at the woman's face... from her eyes to the half-closed eyelashes, and then to the slightly frown.

"What are you going to do now? How angry are you? By the way, as for the dagger, I have it in my pocket—"

Lin Ye's words stopped abruptly.

Cheng put his forehead close to his, and their contact lasted for about a few seconds, when Cheng walked away from him and sat down by the bed, his expression was still frozen at the moment of shock.

"Sure enough, I have a low-grade fever...so..."

Cheng said to him.

"So you are the type who is afraid of loneliness when you are sick, Orihara-kun?"
