At that mont, even Nakano Youko, who usually lacked common sense, could tell that Beichuan Si didn’t like people calling him Mage anymore.
She hurriedly covered her mouth and coughed twice, fearing that she had offended Beichuan Si again.
After all, Beichuan Si was not only the Beichuan Master, but also from Bunkyo District... no... After witnessing Beichuan Si’s abilities, Nakano Youko even thought it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him the biggest delinquent leader in all of Tokyo.
And she had once been doubtful about the rumors of Beichuan Si having killed soone, but now, if anyone said that Beichuan Si’s actions just now didn’t resemble those of a killer, she’d be the first to argue with them.
"I haven’t killed anyone," Beichuan Si’s voice suddenly sounded.
"Ah?" Nakano Youko opened her mouth wide, turning back in astonishnt to look at Beichuan Si.
Beichuan Si was looking back at her, "Isn’t that what you were thinking?"
Under his gaze, Nakano Youko also swallowed hard and then frantically shook her head, "No! That’s not it!"
"Really?"
Seeing Nakano Youko’s expression, Beichuan Si couldn’t be bothered to deal further, and casually said, "You go back and find an excuse to fool your parents, call Mirai for my address."
Having left her with those words, Beichuan Si didn’t bother with the young girl’s myriad thoughts anymore, and he turned and left.
She had already called him Mage many tis, and Beichuan Si had noted each one down in a small notebook he carried.
After ntally noting that she had called him Mage three tis, Beichuan Si took out his mobile phone again.
He needed to make a call—
...
That night, Nakano Youko stayed at the Beichuan Si’s house.
According to Nakano Youko, she was a mber of the track and field club, and solely based on test scores, she wouldn’t be admitted to so universities.
But Nakano Youko really wanted to go to college.
During her second year of high school, she had to train hard and vie for a sports scholarship slot.
Therefore, attending club activities was partly because of the pressure from the school and partly her own issue.
Not everyone was like Shen Gu Mirai or Beichuan Si, who seed to get great scores without much study.
Nakano Youko told her parents that the track team had a two-day and two-night intensive training camp, and she had to attend. Although it was sowhat deceptive towards her parents, if she didn’t cling to Beichuan Si’s coattails, forget about track practice—she feared she might even lose her life within those two days.
Now, Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai were accompanying Nakano Youko on their way to Ochasaki Middle School.
Ochasaki Middle School was not in the Bunkyo District, so they took a public bus, and after leaving the Bunkyo District, it took about fifteen minutes to officially reach Ochasaki Middle School.
Beichuan Si carried a light blue backpack, with a Shinra Bell attached, and hanging at his collar was a small raggedy doll.
The raggedy doll looked very old and frightening, resembling the kind of ghostly doll used in movies. Considering Beichuan Si’s identity, Nakano Youko didn’t dare say anything even though she saw it.
He and Shen Gu Mirai got off the bus, followed by a pale-looking Nakano Youko.
Seeing her staggering, Beichuan Si asked, "Are you very tired?"
"Yes," Nakano Youko patted her face, nodding weakly.
After experiencing yesterday’s events, she probably wouldn’t have been able to sleep easily even if she were in her own bed, let alone on the unfamiliar couch at Beichuan Si’s house. She didn’t even dare to close her eyes, fearing so faceless woman might crawl out of a dark corner and silently drag her into the darkness.
She even had Beichuan Si turn the TV to face the wall.
Nakano Youko feared sothing might crawl out of it—
"Ochasaki Middle School has arrived," Shen Gu Mirai’s voice ca from the front, her eyes twinkling, looking very pleased.
Seeing her like that, Nakano Youko felt jealous again.
She couldn’t understand why Shen Gu Mirai was so carefree, seemingly unafraid of the tired woman lurking in sleep or dark corners, and instead seed excited and happy to be staying at Beichuan Si’s house.
But what she didn’t know was that part of Shen Gu Mirai’s happiness ca from getting back the Mouchi Stone Chain.
It was the first official gift Beichuan Si had given her, and honestly, she had been very reluctant to lend it out at that ti.
Now that she got it back, how could Shen Gu Mirai not be happy?
Another part of the reason was quite simple—there was no one at Shen Gu Mirai’s own house, and staying at Beichuan Si’s house gave her a warm and lively feeling, which was the main reason for her good mood.
Seeing Beichuan Si every day, how could she not be happy?
Of course, such nonsensical reasons were not sothing she could casually talk about. If Beichuan Si knew, he would definitely think he was dealing with a crazy girl.
Therefore, she had to maintain restraint, restraint, and more restraint!
Shen Gu Mirai thought so, smiling radiantly as she turned to look at Beichuan Si—
Beichuan Si was watching her.
His eyes intent upon her.
Shen Gu Mirai’s smile stiffened.
Beichuan Si watched her for a while and then, as if nothing had happened, shifted his gaze and asked, "This place is Ochasaki Middle School?"
The buildings here were much more spacious compared to Kyubei.
"It’s been too long since I’ve been here... but looking at it now, it seems there hasn’t been much change," Shen Gu Mirai looked around, her eyes sparkling.
