Chapter 8 Dream

　　During this period, students at Jujutsu High School could take a short vacation, something Kojima Kei had known for a long time. Geto Suguru always went home during this time, spending the rest of the day with his parents and staying by his side.

　　Ignore everyone else, it's just him.

　　At that time, Kei Kojima really thought that this man liked her.

　　In other words, I like myself who has given everything.

　　In Kojima Kei's eyes, only Geto Suguru is the most important person, and even his mother has to sit in the back row.

　　When Geto Suguru was not around, he retreated into his shell, and only his mother could gently tap on his shell.

　　In his impression, his mother is always busy and never by his side, so whoever spends the most time with him treats him the best.

　　At that time he...

　　Why can't I see the person who is most important to me?

　　His heart and eyes are filled with Geto Suguru, and he wants to be with this person at all times.

　　But now, he doesn't want to.

　　"Okay, it's on the way anyway."

　　Geto Xiayou agreed casually.

　　He made a simple gesture, and a white crane slowly emerged from the sky. He raised his hand and gently stroked the crane's head. The crane rubbed his neck affectionately, making a cooing sound.

　　"But, Kojima-kun, can you accept my delivery method? People who are afraid of heights may not be able to sit on it."

　　He turned his head to look at Kei Kojima, who seemed to have been petrified, his eyes dark.

　　You don’t want to go back with me...

　　What an understanding junior, his thoughts are written all over his face.

　　Ye Moth Zhengdao had no expression on his face:

　　"A man shouldn't be afraid of heights. Kei, you... huh? Where did everyone go?"

　　"Sorry! Mr. Nightmoth! I'm really afraid of heights!"

　　Before Yega Masamichi could finish his words, Kojima Kei had already run away, and his voice came from afar:

　　"I don't need a ride, I can take the bus myself! No need to bother you, senior. See you at the start of school!"

　　Ye Moth said: "...Hey! Don't run! Um...you've already run far away. You're walking really fast, little brat."

　　Geto Summer Oil shrugged:

　　"It seems that my junior brother is unwilling to go back with me. Teacher Ye Moth, don't worry. My junior brother has his own ideas."

　　Ye Moth Zhengdao held his forehead:

　　"Okay then. Jie, you should go back soon too. Don't keep your family waiting too long. You haven't been home for a long time this time, and they are still waiting for you to come home."

　　Xia Yujie smiled and said, "Okay."

　　Ye Mo Zhengdao turned back to the school. There were only a few people scattered around the school gate.

　　Geto Suguru stood at the door, looking in the direction where Kei Kojima escaped, and was silent for a moment.

　　After a while, he patted the white crane's head and took it back:

　　"Sorry, I'll take you out to play next time~"

　　"Gu~"

　　The white crane cried out reluctantly, turned into a ball of white light and flew into Geto Suguru's sleeve.

　　Geto Suguru tapped the ground with his toes a few times and slowly walked towards Kei Kojima.

　　The other side.

　　Kei Kojima has already found the bus stop for the school to return to the city.

　　The Spell Academy is located deep in the mountains and forests. Although the road is flat, it still takes a long time to walk there. Spellcasters who have the conditions will drive or ride a bicycle by themselves.

　　The College specially opened a fixed dedicated line to provide services to other sorcerers or logistics staff who have difficulty commuting to work.

　　However, the students had their day off early today, so Kei Kojima was the only one waiting for the bus.

　　Every bus departs on time, and there are always ten minutes before the next bus leaves.

　　Kei Kojima looked at the empty carriage and felt very comfortable. He walked to the last row and sat down by the window. He put on headphones and listened to music while waiting.

　　Although this car is slower, it is safe at least!

　　Being alone with Geto Suguru, flying in the sky on his white crane, who knows what would happen if that guy gets unhappy and throws you down!

　　When the time comes and no one helps you, you will be at your wit's end.

　　A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. The most primitive means of transportation is the safest!

　　Kei Kojima missed his mother after not seeing her for almost two months. Although they communicated almost every day, this was the first time they had been apart for such a long time.

　　His mother is his only relative in this world and the only person he trusts.

　　It's a pity that I didn't get to bring back my sorcerer's certificate this time. It was such a failure. Otherwise, my mother would have been very happy!

　　Teacher Ye Mo said that he did not need to take the exam for the time being and would wait until next year to take it with other first graders.

　　Of course, more importantly, Kei Kojima is too weak now. Even if he participates, he will most likely fail. It is better for him to continue practicing in school.

　　If you fail to obtain the certificate, you naturally cannot participate in the mission and will not receive any salary.

　　Kei Kojima used his pocket money to buy some special products from the technical college for his mother. Teacher Ye Ga said that his mother used to like the snacks here very much.

　　He was carrying a full backpack and felt excited at the thought of going home soon.

　　Time is up.

　　The car started slowly. Although there was only one passenger, the driver still drove away diligently.

　　Kei Kojima opened the window and was about to get some fresh air when he saw someone waving at the car on the side of the road.

　　"Master, wait a minute~ I want to get in the car too." The figure shouted.

　　Kojima Kei: "!!"

　　The second before the person who stopped the car looked behind it, Kei Kojima quickly closed the car window, closed his eyes in panic, and pretended to be resting.

　　The driver slammed on the brakes, the car slowly stopped, and opened the door.

　　Kojima Kei's whole body tensed up, and the car shook a bit. He heard someone get on the car and talk to the driver:

　　"Sorry, Master, I was delayed for a while and didn't have time to get on the bus."

　　"It's just a parking lot, no big deal. There aren't many people here anyway, so get in quickly."

　　The driver said with a smile, obviously recognizing the person who just got on the bus:

　　"You actually took the bus home today? —Suyu-kun."

　　"Well, it's just a good opportunity for me to take a detour to do something. Thank you, Master." Geto Suguru said gently.

　　"Okay, sit tight, I'm going to continue driving~"

　　"good."

　　The car body was shaking, and with his eyes closed, Kei Kojima heard footsteps approaching.

　　Kei Kojima held his breath and prayed in his heart:

　　Don't come over here! Don't come over here!

　　Go sit in the front! There are so many seats! Why do you have to come here?

　　Didn't you summon the white crane? Why don't you just ride it home? What are you doing here?

　　Kei Kojima lowered his head and curled himself into a ball as much as possible.

　　Don't see me.

　　You can't see me.

　　Please sit in the front.

　　Geto Suguru stood in the aisle in the middle of the car, walked slowly forward, his eyes fixed on Kei Kojima sitting in the back seat.

　　The junior brother's head was almost under the car. Every time he took a step closer, he could see the ball shaking.

　　It's really fun.

　　A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He walked slowly to the second to last row and paused for a moment. Feeling that this little quail was about to lose its breath, he laughed and spoke softly:

　　"Ojima-kun?"

　　Kojima Kei: "..."

　　Kei Kojima is playing dead.

　　Kei Kojima pretended not to hear.

　　"Asleep?"

　　Geto Suguru muttered to himself, as if he had accepted this decision. He stopped playing with the child and found a window seat in the second to last row.

　　Nothing happened.

　　The car started again, and after a full five minutes, Kei Kojima opened his eyes a little, secretly looked around, and saw someone with a bun in front of him.

　　Kei Kojima frowned, unable to understand why this guy appeared here.

　　Damn it, the return journey was originally leisurely, but now Kei Kojima just wants it to end quickly, to end quickly, so that he can go home quickly.

　　...He didn't want to stay in the same space with this person anymore.

　　“Snap!”

　　A voice suddenly came from the direction of Geto Suguru.

　　Kei Kojima was startled and opened his eyes, but saw that Geto Suguru had opened the window, with his arm casually resting on the windowsill, his posture very relaxed. His attention seemed to be only on the scenery outside the window, and he didn't care at all about Kei Kojima who was in the same car.

　　Kei Kojima secretly glanced at Geto Suguru's movements and felt a little regretful.

　　If he had known this would happen, he should have waited until they all left before setting off.

　　...It’s so painful!

　　Driver, drive faster!

　　Geto Suguru usually controls the birds to fly directly out of the mountains. This is simple and efficient, and he can also return home earlier.

　　However, since this timid junior student was unwilling to take his express train and only wanted to take the bus, he naturally could not force him. There was nothing for him to do when he returned anyway, so he might as well buy some local specialties, chat with his parents for a while, and then come back.

　　It's nothing important, so you can go back slowly.

　　Geto Suguru's arm, which was leaning on the window, suddenly paused.

　　This is the process every time he goes home. He has a deep relationship with his parents, but there is no need to rush home.

　　But he just had an illusion.

　　It seemed that every time he rushed home, it was to meet someone.

　　But who is it to see?

　　In that city, besides his parents, who else is important to him?

　　Why doesn't he have any impression at all?

　　Geto Xia Yu looked at the scenery outside the window and kept walking backwards as the wheels rolled.

　　He closed his eyes and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

　　"Jay!"

　　"Jay!"

　　"Why did you come back just now? Woo woo woo..."

　　Geto Suguru doesn't feel that he must exist in this world.

　　He is just an ordinary person.

　　But in that beautiful dream, there was a person who always looked at me with a warm hug, passionate words, and eyes full of love.

　　At least in the heart of the person in the dream, Geto Suguru must be a special person.

　　In his dream, Xia Yujie saw himself reaching out and stroking the man's cheek:

　　"Why are you losing weight again?"

　　"Didn't you eat well again?"

　　His tone was filled with worry.

　　But that person threw himself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and cried:

　　"I missed you... I don't want to eat without you... Why did you come just now!"

　　Every time he was in a hurry, he had no time to tidy up his appearance. He only had time to wipe the sweat from his face and hug this person in his arms.

　　That ardent love enveloped his lonely heart, washed away the fatigue deep within him, swept away all the accumulated pressure, and made his soul feel extremely comfortable, as if he was soaking in a hot spring.

　　Who is it?

　　Who is this person?

　　Geto Suguru suddenly opened his eyes.
