Chapter 253 The Day of Fall
A girl and a cat stare at each other in the English class.
Outside the window, white clouds are floating and airplane clouds are flying from north to south.
The oak trees are growing strong, the train is pulling out of Yotsuya Station, and the spring breeze is blowing through the playground.
"I'll wait for you outside." The girl's voice almost turned into tangible weight, pressing on the cat's little head.
Miki Kujo stuffed the cat back into the drawer roughly.
She stood up, and the chair bounced away with her long, slender legs, making a sharp sound.
In the classroom, everyone who was studying hard looked over.
"Koizumi Aona" turned around in confusion and saw Kujo Miki. Her eyes slowly widened and her mouth opened.
"Ku-Kujo-san?" asked the English teacher, Aonai Koizumi, tentatively.
Kujo Miki looked at her deeply, then looked at "Koizumi Aona" in front of her and said to her:
"Come out with me."
Without waiting for anyone to respond, she walked towards the back door of the classroom as if no one was around.
When passing by Kiyono Rin, Kujo Miki suddenly seemed to remember something and put her hand on Kiyono Rin's beautiful shoulder.
"You come with me too."
"Refuse... what are you doing? Let go."
No matter how Kiyono Rin struggled, Kujo Miki half hugged and half forced, and took this cold girl, whom even Watanabe Toru dared not violate, out of the classroom in front of all the teachers and students of Class 4.
Koizumi Aona, who remained where she was, was at a loss as to what to do.
Why is Kujo Miki here?
Why was she angry?
Do you know she is not Toru Watanabe?
How do you know?
In short, because the incident happened suddenly and there were too many questions, she lost the ability to think.
The only answer that you know without thinking is: things will be bad when you walk out of this classroom - you can easily conclude this from the gloating or sympathetic looks on everyone's faces.
『Koizumi Aona』 subconsciously looked at her future self on the podium, but the next moment, the thought of 'not letting my future self get hurt' came to her mind.
Just like she would casually ask her future self for money, firmly believing that her future self would definitely give it to her, she would also give everything for her future self.
"Koizumi Aona" took a deep breath, clenched his fists, stood up from his seat, and walked towards the back door of the classroom.
In the corner of her sight, Saito Keisuke posed to protect her neck, and Kunii Osamu gave her a thumbs up with a look of admiration on his face.
"Koizumi Aona" thinks that what they should do is not these, but call the police.
As soon as I stepped out of the classroom door, I heard voices coming from the stairwell leading to the fourth floor. It was the conversation between Kiyono Rin and Kujo Miki.
"…What does it have to do with me whether you believe it or not?"
"I'm in a bad mood right now and I'm not in the mood to argue with you."
"Oh, what a coincidence. I'm in a good mood now."
"Come back!" The command was carried through everyone's heart.
"If you pull my clothes again, don't blame me for being rude." Qingye Rin's voice was so cold that it could freeze the school.
There was a rustling sound of clothes being arranged.
"If you want me to help you, the condition is simple, just call me Onee-sama." 'Koizumi Aona' heard Kiyono Rin speak again - this time, her tone changed from cold to indifferent.
Kujo Miki responded with a mocking sneer.
"Alas." This is the sigh of Watanabe Cat.
"Koizumi Aona" took another deep breath and walked towards the stairwell.
The windows in the corridor were half open, and the petals of the white magnolia in the atrium were blown down by the breeze.
The rose vines in the flower bed are stretching desperately. Only by climbing higher and squeezing out more sunlight and rain can the vines bloom with roses that will make people stop and look in May.
"Koizumi Aona" hid in the corner, and nervously poked out half of her face.
Miki Kujo was standing there, wearing a school uniform with the school stairwell as the background, but she gave people a feeling of elegance and propriety, worthy of being a lady of noble birth.
Kiyono Rin, hugging her elbows like a girl from heaven, looked at 'Koizumi Aona' who was peeking at her with her cold eyes that did not contain a trace of desire.
Noticing Kiyono Rin's gaze, Kujo Miki looked over.
Stern but beautiful eyes looked down at "Koizumi Aona".
Before "Koizumi Aona" could see clearly where the cat Watanabe was, she subconsciously retracted her head.
The look in Kujo Miki's eyes seemed to dig out the soul of "Koizumi Aona" from her pupils.
"Come here." An order that could not be refused.
"Koizumi Aona" peeked in again before cautiously walking out.
The three of them and the cat went upstairs, walked through the overhead corridor without the sound of musical instruments, and arrived at the Human Observation Department for the first class.
Qingye Rin walked to the window as if it had nothing to do with her.
She opened the window, leaned her elbows on the windowsill, supported her face with her hands, enjoyed the gentle breeze, and looked out at the high-rise buildings in Shinjuku.
The roses in the plastic bottle, along with her beautiful long hair, fluttered slightly in the wind.
It's like a picture of a beautiful scenery by the window of a literary girl.
Miki Kujo was sitting on the sofa, with her legs crossed and her arms folded, looking very imposing. Cat Watanabe was squatting on the long table in front of her.
This is a picture of the Queen's interrogation.
"Koizumi Aona" stood at the door, not knowing where she could fit in.
"Teacher Koizumi, please sit down." Watanabe Cat said.
"Yeah!" Like a stranded fish being carried back to the sea by the waves, "Koizumi Aona" responded quickly and sat down in Watanabe Toru's usual seat.
"You two have a very good relationship." Kujo Miki said with a smile that mocked and challenged everything. "That's right, since we share a body, our relationship is naturally better than anyone else's."
It was as if the sky was covered by dark clouds and Shinjuku area was quickly becoming overcast.
"After a month, she will forget this memory," said Cat Watanabe.
“It has already happened.”
"I used my hands, and I forgot the feeling."
"You expect me to pretend nothing happened?"
"Of course not..." Watanabe paused, "But no matter what, Mr. Koizumi is innocent."
There was a quarrel between one man and one cat, and the atmosphere between them was becoming more and more tense.
"Toru Watanabe, are you too arrogant?" Her delicate and beautiful face was filled with gloom.
"Arrogant?" The literary girl by the window took out a white rose from the plastic bottle.
She said in a clear voice:
"You seem to be playing in the palm of your hand, but in fact you are often led by him by the nose, clever Watanabe Toru."
The girl put the rose to her nose and sniffed it gently.
Even though it was the island nation’s most famous flower market – the Ota Flower Market – and one of the most beautiful roses today, it was still hard to tell whether it was the flower that set off the face, or the face that made the flower look better.
"Smart? I don't think so." Watanabe Cat said, "Kujo Miki plays with me because I love her; she is led by me because she loves me as well."
"Enough!" Kujo Miki interrupted the topic.
She looked at Watanabe Neko and said, "Tell me, why didn't you tell me about this in the beginning."
"Maybe I'm afraid you won't believe me." 'Koizumi Aona' took the initiative to help explain, "You see, when I first came here, I completely thought this was a dream. Body swapping is completely beyond imagination."
"Did I ask you to speak?" Kujo Miki still stared at Watanabe Cat motionlessly.
"Koizumi Aona" curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and the fear and embarrassment in her heart diminished.
If Kujo Miki wasn't so arrogant, she would apologize and ask for forgiveness out of guilt.
But what does it mean to ignore everything, treat her as a sinner, and give her orders?
'What's the big deal?'
Feeling the rebelliousness of the sixteen-year-old girl, Watanabe Cat sighed inwardly.
"This incident was totally beyond my expectation," he said. "When it happened, my first thought was that I couldn't let you know. I was worried that you would blame Mr. Koizumi, but I didn't mean to hide it from you."
"What's going on between you and that Koizumi Aona?" asked Kujo Miki.
"It was a pure teacher-student relationship. She came to Tokyo from a public high school in the countryside through her own efforts, so she took good care of me, who was also from the countryside."
Miki Kujo looked at Kiyono Rin at the window.
"Odd or even?" said Qingye Rin.
"Single." replied Kujo Miki.
Qingye Rin stretched out her slender fingers, pinched a rose petal, and gently picked it off.
She gently placed the petals on the clean windowsill and began to pick the second one.
Only then did "Koizumi Aona" realize that the odd and even numbers the two people had just mentioned were referring to the odd and even numbers of rose petals.
But what if I knew?
Miki Kujo seems to trust Rin Kiyono particularly?
Single, double, single, double...
Since there was no headcount, Koizumi Aona had to count silently in her mind.
I thought I would give up quickly or make mistakes along the way, but for the brain, this task seems to be like putting a pile of scattered books in order - although it is troublesome, it will not go wrong anyway.
one.
The number of petals is odd.
Kiyono Rin gently rotated the rose branch and glanced at Watanabe Cat.
If the petal she had tucked in the book wasn't missing, the number would have been even.
Watanabe Neko glanced at the ring in Kujo Miki's hand.
"Go ahead." Kujo Miki said impatiently.
"The truth." Qingye Rin placed the flower branches on the rose petals on the windowsill, creating a unique aesthetic.
Miki Kujo looked deeply at Cat Watanabe.
The cat Watanabe jumped up, leaped onto Kujo Miki's shoulder, stuck out his cat tongue and licked her little face.
Kujo Miki grabbed the cat by the neck and took him down.
The cat's limbs and tail are drooping, and its face is confused.
That doesn't make sense. Kujo Miki should have calmed down a little.
Miki Kujo picked up the cat, checked its claws, and then dropped it on the table.
Watanabe Cat jumped onto her shoulder again, and this time, Kujo Miki did not refuse.
"Is it over?" Koizumi Aona asked tentatively.
"End?" Repeating the word, Kujo Miki snorted contemptuously.
Along with her voice, there was the sound of messy yet orderly footsteps in the corridor.
"Knock knock." A respectful knock on the door.
"Miss." Jingliu's voice.
"Come in."
"Yes!" Led by Jingliu, a group of plainclothes bodyguards filed in.
"What's going on?!" Koizumi Aona stood up in panic and knocked over the chair.
"Take him back." ordered Kujo Miki.
"Yes!" The bodyguard slowly walked towards "Koizumi Aona".
"Kiyono-san!" Koizumi Aona called for help.
"Don't mess up my desk." Qingye Rin walked out of the Human Observation Department.
"Wait a minute!!" Koizumi Aona hid behind the beech table and leaned against the window with nowhere to retreat.
Watanabe the cat mourned for Koizumi Aona in his heart.
Qing Ye Lin just didn't say it, but for a girl occupying his body...
Anyway, it was Kujo Miki who took action, and she wanted to make Koizumi Aona suffer a little. She neither agreed nor opposed it.
He wanted to help, but unfortunately there were outsiders around, so it was better for the cat not to speak.
Only they can be told about the system, even if it is just a superficial and permitted small part.
"Master Watanabe." Jingliu took out a gun and sneered with a hint of excitement that he had finally waited until this day.
"Gun——" Koizumi Aona screamed.
The rebellious heart of a sixteen-year-old girl was completely crushed when she encountered the evil power of a Tokyo lady.
"Meow~"
What meow means: Don’t worry, I’m going to lock you up in the villa and give you good food and drink.
The bodyguards walking in front walked forward and prepared to hold Koizumi Aona's arms and take her away.
"Don't come over here!" Screaming, 'Koizumi Aona' struggled subconsciously.
An extremely exaggerated scene occurred.
The two bodyguards who had just touched Koizumi Aona's arm were thrown far away.
With a clang, bookshelves, televisions, and refrigerators fell to the ground, and food was scattered.
The beech table and sofa are fine because they are close to each other.
"What is this?" "Koizumi Aona" looked at "her own" hand, then looked at the two bodyguards who were thrown out with worry and fear.
The two men's faces were filled with pain and they couldn't get up for a while.
Across from the door of the Human Observation Department classroom, Kiyono Rin folded her arms, leaned her slender body against the wall, and watched the scene with interest.
If she neither approved nor objected to Koizumi Aona suffering a little, she fully approved of Kujo Miki being humiliated.
Miki Kujo reached out and crushed Watanabe Cat's head hard, squeezing his facial features to the point of being almost deformed.
"It's okay to be a little heavier." She said as she walked out the door.
With just this sentence, 'Koizumi Aona' stared at her and rushed towards her while screaming "Ah——"
"Protect the lady!"
Jingliu didn't need to say anything. Even though it was beyond common sense that someone was thrown away just now, the bodyguards still rushed forward and formed a human wall behind Kujo Miki.
『Koizumi Aona』 was scared and panicked.
She didn't know what she was doing or what she should do. She only had one thought in her mind:
I don't want to be taken away. It's all Kujo Miki's fault. Catch her.
The space was narrow and the bodyguards were outnumbered, but she just struggled wildly and threw them all out.
It was just like a movie, the protagonist walked by and the minions were beaten into the sky.
"Toru Watanabe! Stop! I'm going to shoot!" Jingliu was the only one left.
The muzzle of the gun with a silencer was bare and black, and Koizumi Aona was so frightened that she dared not move.
"Break her legs." Kujo Miki ordered with a sneer.
A woman occupies her man's body, and her heart is already filled with rage.
Now, in front of Qingye Rin, all his subordinates were defeated in a few moves, which added fuel to the fire.
Jingliu immediately followed the order and lowered the gun.
Watanabe cat pounced.
Even with [Healing Medicine], being shot would still hurt, and we must not let Koizumi Aona get hurt.
Without waiting for the weak cat body to arrive.
"Bang——", a gunshot rang out.
'Koizumi Aona' was so scared that she even closed her eyes, but her body dodged on its own.
Cat Watanabe landed on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.
<Mastery Level·Dodge>, <Master Level·Free Fighting>, and <Mastery Level·Shooting> finally came in handy, making this body extremely sensitive to firearms.
『Koizumi Aona』 opened her eyes, filled with fear of death .
If it was her own body, she would definitely collapse to the ground at this moment.
But this is Toru Watanabe's body.
The directional nervous system, hypothalamus, limbic system, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, thyroid gland, etc., these physiological mechanisms that control emotions react to the brain with more than just fear.
Fear is only a moment.
Angry! Furious! Why! Do you deserve it?
Before Shizuru fired the second shot, "Koizumi Aona" kicked her away like a rag doll.
"Ugh—cough cough!" Jingliu covered his almost sunken chest, his face full of pain.
While the man was in the air, he couldn't control his body due to severe pain and the gun fell out of his hand.
Watanabe Cat glanced at Jingliu.
Before returning to Iwate Prefecture, this woman deliberately opened the safety of the gun, but he didn't care about it. She deserved to suffer this time.
"Meow~" He called to 'Koizumi Aona'.
Almost enough...
“Ah——” ‘Koizumi Aona’ punched Kujo Miki.
Great power brings tyranny; fear of death brings anger.
Even Watanabe Toru himself has never seen his full strength.
The fierce fist wind tore through the air.
"Little..." Miki Kujo heard Jingliu seemed to be shouting something.
The bodyguard who fell to the ground struggled to get up.
"Meow!"
The weak and vulnerable cat flew far away and hit the wall.
First there was a thud, followed by a slight sound of something falling to the ground, and after that it remained motionless.
Little stars drifted out from the cat.
“Thu——” All the blood color disappeared from Kujo Miki.
Qingye Rin's face turned pale, and with trembling hands, she took out her cell phone and dialed the hospital's number.
"Koizumi Aona" had blank eyes and didn't know what to do.
On the windowsill, rose branches rolled down, and the petals were carried away by the wind.
