Chapter 128 Leaving
"It hurts, it hurts."

"Brother Shu, what a jerk! Your face hurts just from eating. How can you go to school like this? Your face is all bruised and swollen."

The little girl puffed up her face and looked angry, but she was very careful in feeding the child.

"So I have to take a few days off."

"What about Brother Shu's work at school and the wind band? Everyone is waiting for Brother Shu to rehearse!"

".We can only leave it to you, Mr. Akai, for the next generation."

The most important reason why Fujii Itsuki did not take the initiative to tell Chitose about her relationship with Kuka Ryuichi was that he did not want to make her worry.

But how could this be hidden from Qiansui?

He didn't go to school and asked Akai Muzi to take his place in the class. When Chitose called to ask about it, he understood the whole story.

Eating the food bought by this girl.

My heart feels warm.

"Does Chitose feel like before?"

"before?"

"It's about me and Hayakawa and the others standing up for the welfare home."

"How can this be the same?" Yang Kui Chitose sat beside his bed, picking up the food in the bowl.

Fujii Itsuki smiled and said, "I mean fighting. Even though I've graduated for seven or eight years, I still think that fighting is the right thing to do. It's just that my physical ability seems to be not as good as before. I'm not as strong as before."

"Brother Shu's heart is not old, but his body is old!"

"Yeah, my body is getting old. I've been working so hard in Tokyo for so long, I feel like I've overdrawn my body's energy for at least the next ten years."

"In the next ten years? Brother Shu, it won't be too late, right?"

"What's wrong?" Fujii Itsuki didn't react for a moment.

"It's just that, that." Yang Kui Chitose spoke hesitantly and her face turned red.

Fujii Itsuki immediately frowned and gave the girl a slap on the face.

"pain"

"You still feel pain? You have no respect for your parents."

"Hehe~"

Yang Kui Chitose doesn't care what her brother Shu says.

Anyway, I will be Brother Shu’s good wife in the future, so I must worry about Brother Shu’s masculine abilities!
Although this kind of thing is extremely embarrassing
"Of course I hope Brother Shu is in better health and younger! That way, his waist will be stronger."

".More?"

"No more, no more!" Yang Kui Qiansui was afraid of being beaten, so she quickly changed the subject with a smile, "But it's good for Brother Shu to know that he's old!"

"Hmm? I'm old and okay?"

"Very good!" Yang Kui Qiansui fed him another mouthful of food, "Brother Shu can be fed like this for the rest of his life!"

"."

this
This smile.
Why does it sound and look a little scary?
Probably an illusion.

Qiansui is just a little more possessive. If you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with these words for a possessive person.

Fujii Itsuki said earnestly: "Chitose, don't make such jokes in the future, otherwise I would think you have learned bad things."

".I, I, I, I! I really didn't! I just heard a lot of girls in the class discussing this. They were even more excessive. And they were in class."

Yang Kui Chitose said this, becoming embarrassed.

“They were watching it during class!”

"."

Fujii Itsuki choked for a long while.

Now Chitose is in her second year of high school, and so are those girls.

It must be the time when I'm curious about this kind of thing.

But he was still watching it in class.

Do you want to organize an x ​​knowledge safety education class in your class someday?
Let everyone have a correct understanding of what needs attention in this regard.

Jiuhua is the same child who has no correct standard when it comes to "liking".

"Who applied the potion to these small scars on Brother Shu's hands and legs? You're so careful." Yang Kui Qiansui said in a cute tone, "Jiuhua? Speaking of which, where is Jiuhua?"

"Jiuhua went to buy me some fruit."

"The medicine for Brother Shu's injury—"

"These were painted by the kid Matsumae." Fujii Itsuki answered casually.

"Matsumae?" Yang Kui Chitose said these two words slowly, and then she smiled cutely, "Hey, Xinchun-chan cares about Brother Shu so much?"

Whenever Fujii Itsuki talks about Matsumae Shinharu, he has to sigh.

“This time, the Matsumae kid helped a lot. Chitose, you also know that she is from the Matsumae family. Even if the Matsumae family chooses to withdraw the lawsuit, I will be imprisoned for ten days or half a month for the crime of dueling.

"Not only have I been released on bail, but this incident will not affect my future work. I really owe Matsumae Shinchun a big favor."

". Was it Xinchun-chan who took the initiative to help?"

"That's right, but Jiuhua went to talk to Matsumae Shinchun about it."

Yang Kui Chitose was very surprised, "Doesn't she have a bad relationship with Xinchun-chan? The kind that won't give Xinchun any face at all."

"Yes. That's why——"

Fujii Itsuki was about to speak but stopped himself before he could finish his words, but Yang Kui Chitose had already seen something in her brother Itsuki's eyes.

this.
Not good, not good, not good.

Brother Tree feels sorry for Jiuhuayue!
During this time she would work hard making sushi every afternoon.

What happened?
Wasn't Jiuhua completely defeated by me in the last selection?

How come it still appears?
"Chitose?" Fujii Itsuki saw Chitose Yangkui biting her lips.

"Ah! It's okay. Oh, by the way, Brother Shu, you said that Jiuhua-san is leaving Otaru, right?"

"right"

"She's really leaving?"

"Yes." Fujii Itsuki was quite sad. "Jiuhua used conditions to exchange, otherwise her father would not have withdrawn the lawsuit against me. This is really - oh, it's hard for her."

"Brother Shu, don't blame yourself! It's just that the person who tied the bell has to untie it himself! Wasn't it because you, Brother Shu, took the initiative to help Jiuhua-san?"

"That's what I mean—"

"Brother Shu, let's talk about Jiuhua-san leaving."

Yang Kui Chitose was very sad, "I am a little reluctant to see Jiuhua-san leave. Although we are competitors in the wind instrument club, we practice our wind instrument skills in the same place every day."

Fujii Itsuki looked at Chitose for a long time, trying to catch something on her face.

"Chitose really thinks so?"

"Really! I wanted to invite Jiu Huayue to have a meal before she leaves!"

Fujii Itsuki nodded, now completely believing it.

Qiansui would never lie to herself no matter what, this is 100% certain.

But doesn’t Qiansui have a bad relationship with Jiuhua? Why is he feeling sad about Jiuhuayue leaving now?

At this time, Yang Kui Chitose couldn't tell what she was feeling.

If you want to talk about happiness, of course there is.

But when he thought about his biggest threat leaving just like that, he was still a little dazed for a moment.

She really couldn't bear to part with Jiuhuayue.

It was as if the Demon King's nemesis, the Hero, had suddenly disappeared.

Chitose Yang Kui felt very lonely.

This is really...

Now, who is my opponent?

Who else?

"Is Mr. Fujii feeling better?"

Chitose Yangkui saw Matsumae Shinharu walk into the ward.

"Matsumae, have you finished dinner with Sakura?"

"Ah."

"Thank you for your help."

"I can't say," Matsumae Shinchun said worriedly, "Teacher, is your knee okay?"

"Yeah, much better. Although it was very painful when the gout fluid was drained, I'm in a lot better condition after hanging the anti-inflammatory fluid for an afternoon." Fujii Itsuki replied with a smile.

"Then I'm relieved. Ah, Chitose, good afternoon."

"Um"

Chitose Yangkui was stunned for a moment, then nodded to Matsumae Shinharu.

Xinchun-chan, why are you dressed so beautifully today?
The combination of a dress and a western-style vest makes her look like a young lady. There is also a butler following behind her.

Chitose Yangkui suddenly noticed how Kokoroharu-chan called herself just now.

"Wait a minute, Xinchun-chan, why are you calling yourself by your own name in front of Brother Shu?"

If you say "I", this is a normal name.

But if she calls herself "Xinchun", it's very feminine and also represents a certain intimacy. When did Shu Gege and Xinchun-chan become so close?
Because of the big mistake at the Jade Fox Festival last time?
impossible!

Just as Matsumae Shinchun was about to speak, Fujii Itsuki said, "Chitose, Matsumae and I are now privately considered as senior and junior brothers and sisters."

"Yes." Matsumae Shinchun nodded in agreement.

"Master brothers and sisters?!"

"In other words, Matsumae is now my sister."

"Sister, sister?!"

Chitose Yangkui saw Brother Shu smiling at Matsumae Shinchun, and Matsumae Shinchun also smiled back at Brother Shu, and the two of them had a very good understanding of each other.

It was as if the two were born as brother and sister.

Do not!
its not right!
Am I not the only one who is Brother Shu’s sister?!

Isn't it just me.? ! !

"Shu, Brother Shu, what's going on?" Yang Kui Qiansui's emotions were in turmoil, but he appeared normal on the surface.

"Chitose, you don't know?" Fujii Itsuki felt strange.

"what do you know?"

"My relationship with the professor. You and Matsumae are so close, you should know about it."

"Chitose, don't you know? I thought Chitose had already known this from the teacher." Matsumae Shinchun was also surprised.

"What?" Yang Kui Chitose was confused, "Brother Shu and Xinchun, what are you talking about? The professor is Professor Fujinomiya of Brother Shu's university, right? What's wrong?"

Seeing this, Fujii Itsuki looked at Matsumae Shinharu and explained:
"It was only after I returned to Otaru that I found out that Professor Fujinomiya was a pseudonym for the professor. Professor Fujinomiya's actual surname was Matsumae, and she happened to be Matsumae Shinharu's mother."

"what?"

"In other words, my teacher is Matsumae Shinharu's mother."

".!"

Yang Kui Chitose couldn't believe it.

The professor that Brother Shu respected so very very very very much in the past was Xinchun's, mom? !

How could there be such a coincidence in the world!

Fujii Itsuki saw Chitose's expression and added, "It's just such a coincidence."

Matsumae Koharu said in a reserved manner: "When Mr. Fujii first arrived, I didn't expect such a coincidence when chatting with him. This may be God's will."

Wait!
Wait!
Chitose Yangkui's brain is a little confused now.

If it is said that Brother Shu and Xinchun have this kind of relationship.

Doesn't that mean that the relationship between the two of them has been very close for a long time? !
No wonder!
No wonder she always felt that what Xinchun said to Brother Shu was particularly abrupt during the Jade Fox Festival.
Isn’t it just an ordinary teacher-student relationship between the two?

How can you say something like that!

Now that it seems like Kokoharu-chan could say such outrageous words, it might be because of the Matsumae family behind Kokoharu--!
Chitose Yang Kui realized that she had discovered a super super super bomb!
She can trust Xinchun-chan, she is her good friend.

But the Matsumae family is a super family!
"What Kokoharu-chan said during the Jade Fox Festival—"

"Tama Fox Festival?" Matsumae Shinchun blushed when she thought of what she said that day and avoided looking away.

"Xinchun-chan" Yang Kui Chitose was a little absent-minded, "Xinchun-chan was forced by her family to say that, right?"

".Yes, that's right."

"Now, is your family still urging you, Xinchun-chan?"

"Well," Matsumae Shinchun thought about it carefully, "Please don't worry about this, Chitose. My family won't force you. This is a modern society now, and my family won't do anything excessive."

call--

That's good, that's good.

Without the pressure from the Matsumae family, what am I afraid of?
Xinchun-chan is still my good sister!
Yang Kui Chitose's mood improved and she began to smile again.

At this time, Jiu Huayue happened to come to the ward after buying some fruits.

The three girls gathered together, and Chitose Yangkui suddenly made a suggestion.

"How about this! Jiuhua-san happens to be leaving soon, how about we hold a farewell party for her tomorrow?"

Jiuhuayue frowned: "What?"

Matsumae Shinchun: "But Chitose, your relationship with Satsuki is not——"

"It's okay, it's okay. The competitive relationship between Jiuhua and I has ended perfectly, hasn't it?"

Jiuhuayue held the fruit and lowered her head, still feeling unwilling.

But she really had no intention of going against Yang Kui Chitose.

She hated the little thoughts of girls competing with each other the most.

The one who has the most thoughts is her former good friend, Xinchun.

And she couldn't say anything more to Xinchun.
After all, she ran to Xinchun's house crying last night and begged her for help.

"Xiaoyue, are you really leaving?"

"Ah."

Jiuhuayue felt that Xinchun must be happy in her heart, happy that she was about to leave.

When I pleaded with her yesterday, didn't she also have the selfish motive of getting rid of me?

Xinchun, my childhood sweetheart.

Really. No mercy at all.

"This is such a pity." Matsumae Shinchun said regretfully. She really didn't want her friend to leave. She saw that their relationship was getting better after this incident.

"But don't worry, I'm just going there for a while, I'm not not coming back."

Matsumae Shinchun's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"of course."

"Brother Shu, are you going to the farewell party?" Yang Kui Chitose asked.

"Farewell party, right? Speaking of this, I really don't want to leave," Fujii Itsuki pondered for a moment, "I can get out of bed and walk tomorrow, OK, if you want to hold it, I can go. Alas, it's really a pity."

"It's okay, it's okay! Brother Shu should happily send Jiuhua off! We'll meet again if we're lucky. And Jiuhua also said that she'll only be gone for a while!"

Yang Kui Qiansui turned to Jiuhuayue, and the hostility in his eyes was gone:
"Of course, whether or not the person is willing to accept this farewell party depends on the person concerned—"

"What's the matter? I accept it."

Jiuhuayue is a very decisive and sharp-witted woman.

"OK!"

Yang Kui Qiansui clapped his hands.

"Then it's happily decided! I'll prepare delicious food in the store tomorrow! Everyone remember to come on time!"

There will be a farewell party tomorrow, and it has been decided to send Jiuhuayue off to Tokyo.

The place to eat is at Yang Kui's house.

Fujii Itsuki felt that this could be considered as a way to repair the relationship between Jiuhua and Chitose.

Lying on the hospital bed, it was late at night.

Chitose, Matsumae, and Kuka have already left.

Before Jiuhua left, she gave herself one more look, a look that was full of reluctance.

Fujii Itsuki looked at the streets of Otaru city for a while. It was already eleven o'clock, so he prepared to go to bed.

He kept thinking.

The way little Jiuhua hid in her arms and cried this afternoon.

Those tears, in fact, contained more than just the feeling of being moved that he stood up for her and beat her father for her, right?

And she was reluctant to leave Otaru.

She was really reluctant to leave me, so she cried so loudly in my arms, which was totally unlike her usual tough and individual self.

When Fujii Itsuki thought of Jiuhuayue’s crying, he felt a little sore in the corners of his eyes.

I'm going to talk to her father tomorrow.

We also need to send away Jiuhuayue.
What is Xiao Jiuhua doing alone now?

When I send her off, will she be as sad as Chitose was when I was leaving Otaru?
Xiao Jiuhua said she would just be away for a while.

How long is this period of time?
Will I never come back?
Hasn’t this kid just been learning to play the trumpet with Jujuzawa’s sister for a few days?
Didn't she just start working as a salesperson in a supermarket and has been working hard for a short time?
Are all her efforts to live a better life in Otaru going to be wasted?
Didn’t she say that she also had a dream of standing on the national stage with me?

These ones
Are we going to give up all this in vain?
A mess of thoughts.

Fujii Itsuki finally knew it.

The child Xiao Jiuhua is willing to exchange her freedom for her own freedom.

In order to compensate herself, she was willing to do the things she least wanted to do.

Everything she had done in Otaru, her actions, she was now willing to give up for herself.

——Go to Songqian and plead with the father who beat her.

Perhaps it was the realization that a person who lived under the same roof with him every day was about to leave, or perhaps it was the recollection of the day when Jiuhuayue tried hard to learn how to cook and fed him. Fujii Itsuki felt a sense of parting in his heart and was reluctant to leave.

tomorrow
Let’s see tomorrow.

See if the conversation with her father leads to any improvement.

He really can't bear to part with this child now.

Fujii Itsuki tried his best to calm himself down, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
