Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 250
The sunset is fading.

The warm light fell on the side of a certain house in the distance, reflecting a splendor and dragging a long shadow behind.

It's getting late.

After standing by the window and looking at it for a while, Haixing looked away, and then returned to sit beside Naruse.

He was still fiddling with his phone.

In the past one hour or so, he sorted out a table with the advantages and disadvantages of several well-known beauty schools in Tokyo.

Seeing him flipping through the website she couldn't understand and filling the form with content, Hai Xing's eyes slowly moved up to his face.

One of the comparison items in the table is the distance from the school to Matsu Chiaki's apartment.

"Will you come to Tokyo by then?" She asked suddenly.

He paused for a moment without looking up, "What am I going to do in Tokyo?"

"Go to college."

"I can't get into Dongda University."

"Last time you said you could pass the exam."

Naruse glanced at her, "I never said that."

"Said!"

"No."

"I must have said that!"

"there has never been."

The two looked at each other with confidence in each other.

"Mind your own business first."

Naruse looked away first, and the short argument was also a kind of rest for him.

He covered his face and rubbed it twice, and then checked the time, only to find that it was past five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Why is it so late... Go home first, I will continue my research at night."

"Oh, good."

"Haixing, let's go back first, I'm going to the handicraft club to find Shangzi..."

Shangzi was standing at the door of the department room.

She didn't know how long she stood there until she met his line of sight before walking in.

"The starfish is here today, too."

"Ah, um... I want Chunhai to help me plan my career path."

Shangzi came over, looked down at the form on Naruse's mobile phone for a few moments, with a slightly relaxed expression.

"Haixing is determined to go to Tokyo to attend a beauty school."

"For her, this is the best choice." Naruse said, "Otherwise, one day, you may hear the news that Mr. Seiichiro sold the hotel to his daughter to repay the usury."

"How could it be so exaggerated..." Hai Xing's rebuttal was weak.

Shangzi smiled and looked at his phone again.

"this is……"

"The data of several well-known beauty schools in Tokyo, Haixing can't decide, I'm going to sort it out and make a chart that is easier to understand."

"Is it complicated?"

"well enough."

Shangzi nodded and said nothing.

"Has the handicraft society disbanded?"

"What time is it?"

"Then go back."

"Ah."

Naruse picked up his schoolbag and left.

As soon as he came to the department, he was studying career planning for Haixing, and he hadn't even opened his schoolbag.

Locking the door, the three of them went downstairs.

"How was the club meeting?"

"The content of the club exhibition next week has been decided."

"Society Exhibition, does every club have to go there?"

"No, you have to sign up for this. If Chunhai finds it troublesome, the restoration department doesn't have to sign up."

The club exhibition is one of the most important publicity methods for club recruitment in the new school year, and it was also the focus of discussion at the club meeting inside the Restoration Department last semester.

It's just that with Shangzi and other members returning to the handicraft club, the recruitment of the restoration department suddenly lost its meaning - there was only an empty shell left.

"Even if you don't recruit new people, you can take this opportunity to promote it." Naruse said.

After all, the Restoration Department is the club that Shangzi created from scratch. Even if it is now reduced to a vassal of the handicraft club, he does not want to lose the meaning of its original establishment.

Shangzi looked at him and smiled.

"As long as Chunhai doesn't find it troublesome."

"The minutes of last semester's meeting are still there."

"It's all in the filing cabinet in the department."

He was also present at the association meeting of the Restoration Department, but he basically didn't hear anything. He had to look through the minutes of the meeting to see what they were planning at the time before making a decision.

"I'll see tomorrow."

Hai Xing was listening quietly, and suddenly said, "I want to help too."

Shangzi looked over, and she continued:
"It's just a few days before school starts, I don't have much to do...is that okay?"

Naoko smiled and looked at Naruse.

He shook his head, "I said it just now, there is nothing that needs your help."

"I can do anything."

"Then next week's club exhibition, let Hai Xing and the first-year freshmen introduce the restoration department."

"..."

Starfish suddenly opened his eyes wide.

When she first entered school last year, she also participated in the club exhibition in the gymnasium. She had long forgotten what was displayed on the stage. Still impressed.

"No, I can't do it...I don't know what to say."

"So forget it." Naruse said.

"I can help with other things."

"There's nothing else the Restoration Department can do right now."

There was nothing to do with him, Haixing looked at Shangzi again, "Shangzi..."

Shangzi looked at her and suddenly felt that she was a little cunning.

——Chun Hai could easily say no, but she couldn't.

"If starfish really has nothing to do recently, you can come to our handicraft club to have a look."

"Eh?"

Shangzi smiled slightly.

"For this year's recruiting, the handicraft club is going to do a lot. You can see a lot of interesting things, and there may be many places that need the help of starfish."

"……All right."

Hai Xing could only agree, "Then I'll come and have a look tomorrow... just tomorrow, I'm clumsy, so I probably can't help much."

"nothing."

After leaving the school, the three of them didn't plan to go anywhere else, and planned to go home directly.

When passing the Yumino Cafe, Hai Xing noticed the motorcycle parked outside, and then saw Takikawa Hikaru sitting in the cafe.

She was sitting by the glass window facing the street, facing two second-grade girls. You kept talking, but she just listened with a smile.

"..."

After all, they are friends who grew up together, Hai Xing can occasionally see her perfunctory from her unchanging smile.

"Light."

Following her line of sight, Shangzi also saw Takikawa Hikaru in the coffee shop.

Naruse glanced at the two girls opposite her.

"Did you come here for coffee?"

The three of them slowed down, finally attracting a bored glance from Takigawa Hikaru in the coffee shop.

"..."

The two girls sitting opposite saw her shining eyes for the first time today.

"Feel sorry."

She stood up, and the smile she showed was much more touching than before, but it was a pity that this was the last smile before parting.

"I have to go back. It was a pleasure drinking coffee with you, let's talk next time."

"Ah good……"

Hikaru Takikawa came out with his schoolbag.

"Are you going back?"

"You're not waiting for us, are you?" Naruse said.

"No." She smiled, "It's just that I have nothing to do, and I'm drinking coffee here alone."

one person……

Naruse glanced at the two girls who were still sitting inside.

"When I came back to my senses, they sat across from each other."

"They certainly don't think so."

"Haha. Go back."

She got on the motorcycle, "I can take one."

The three of them looked at each other, and Naruse and Shangzi's gazes focused on Haixing's face.

"..."

She sat on it.

The two walked, Hikari Takikawa controlled the speed of the car, and slowly followed with Haixing until the bus platform.

"We're going back first."

"Well, be careful on the road."

Saying goodbye to Naruse and Naoko, Hikaru Takikawa twisted the accelerator, and the speed of the car increased sharply.

Hai Xing screamed in a low voice and hugged her waist tightly.
