Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 396

After school in the afternoon, several people still went to the library to review first, and did not go back until school time.

The "floating" study session went to Hai Xing's house today, and dinner was naturally settled at Hai Xing's house.

After dinner, Naruse and Naoko helped wash the dishes.

"Today is the last study session, right?"

"Well, the exam starts tomorrow."

"It's a pity... I feel like I'm going to run out of ingredients in the refrigerator."

If it continues, it will be his turn to hold a study session at his house tomorrow.

"Well, if I knew it earlier, I would have brought some ingredients over."

"I forgot."

"Me too."

After washing the dishes, Naoko went upstairs first, and Naruse was dragged by Seiichiro Maki to chat for a while.

"Thanks to Chunhai's tutoring before each exam, Haixing's grades are looking better." Seiichiro is filled with emotion, "At this time last year, I was worried that Haixing would not be able to graduate from high school."

"The starfish is just not interested in learning, lacks guidance, and its head is... relatively smart."

"Fortunately, Chunhai is back."

"Even if I don't come back from Tokyo, I still have Yiye."

"Kazuyo...these children became friendly again because of Chunhai's return."

Naruse pursed his lower lip, smiled and said nothing.

"there's one more thing……"

Seiichiro hesitated for half a minute before continuing, "Are Harumi and Naoko dating now?"

"Yes."

"Is that so..."

He nodded, with a complex expression on his face, but in the end he didn't say much, just patted Naruse on the shoulder.

Naruse just pretended that he didn't understand anything.

"It's almost time for the study session to start. I'm going upstairs."

"Go."

When he arrived on the second floor, he found that the door to his original room was open. Naruse walked over and realized that several people were here.

He walked into the room and looked around, "It's so clean."

"Well... I lost everything that should be thrown away, and put the rest in the utility room downstairs, so this place is free." Hai Xing said.

"Use it as a guest room." Naruse sat down next to Naoko.

"No, it's just empty for the time being." Hai Xing was also embarrassed in front of them, saying that he would actually sleep here at night.

"Let's start the study session. The exam will be tomorrow, and I will consolidate it for the last time today."

"it is good."

After several study sessions, the process and mode have basically been fixed:
First sort out the knowledge points within the scope of the exam, and then do the questions in a targeted manner, keep doing the questions, and ask for advice if you don’t know it, that’s all.

And now there are some changes.

Naoko is in charge of tutoring Takigawa Hikari, Morimi is in charge of Haixing, and Naruse is in charge of providing tutoring for the two tutors when necessary.

"Shangzi, how do you do this question?"

"Let me see."

"Yiye, look here..."

"Take a closer look at the topic."

In this mode, most of the time, Naruse has nothing to do.

"Is this low table from Starfish's room?"

"Yes, there is nothing in this room. We moved it here after dinner."

"No wonder it looks familiar..."

Morimi, who was answering Haixing's questions, raised his head and glanced at him, "You seem to be very free."

"Yes."

"Can't you find something to do?"

"Looking for something to do, you and Shangzi are busy, should I ask Mr. Seiichiro to come up and give him counseling?"

"..." Hai Xing also looked over.

"For example, replace me or Naoko, let's take a break or something." Morimi said.

Naruse had no objection, "Yes."

Shangzi smiled, "I'm not tired yet."

"Are you tired, honor student?"

These two...

Sen rolled his eyes and continued to lecture Hai Xing.

After watching them for a while, Naruse got up and turned around in the room, came to the window, and looked at the street outside from a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar angle.

He lived here for two years, he thought.

He had lived here for two years, she thought, what is he thinking now?

Will you miss the time you used to live together?

Will you remember the secret that only each other knows...

Staring sideways at his back, Hai Xing had mixed feelings.

When she regained her senses, she realized that the three girls beside her were all staring at her.

"..."

Shangzi's face was as calm as water, while the faces of the other two were more or less helpless.

"Are you tired of Haixing?" Hikari Takigawa was the first to ask.

"...Well, I'm a little tired."

"Take a break." Takikawa Hikaru said, and smiled at Shangzi beside him, "I'm a little tired too."

"Ah."

Mori didn't say anything, just fell back and lay on the tatami.

Staring at the ceiling in a daze for a while, she suddenly raised her hand and pinched Hai Xing's waist.

She screamed, and hurried to the side to hide.

"Ichiba...?"

"It's really difficult for you to study seriously for a while."

"..."

"I'm tired. Naruse Harumi, you can teach your sister yourself."

Naruse by the window had already turned his head, and now he also responded.

"Take a break and talk."

Hikaru Takigawa crawled over from the other side and lay down next to Morimi.

The latter turned to look at her.

"Are you really tired?"

"Ah."

"Haixing, you also come and lie down."

"Oh……"

Hai Xing looked at them and lay down beside Sen Jian.

"Shangzi."

Hikaru Takikawa on the ground raised one hand, his thumb and other four fingers closed together, opened and closed, like an open duckbill.

"Let's lie down together for a while."

"Okay." Shangzi smiled, stood up to have a look, and lay down beside Haixing.

"..."

Hai Xing tried her best to hide her surprise and a little uneasiness, when the hand on the other side was suddenly held.

The duckbill turned to the window again, opening and closing.

"Isn't Chunhai coming?"

"I'll let it go."

Naruse looked at the four people on the ground, and didn't act stupid.

"If you feel tired, just finish it early today." He added, "It will be almost done by nine o'clock."

"Well... okay."

Takigawa Hikaru was the first to express his position, and the remaining three people remained uncommitted.

"Sure enough, lying down is the most comfortable position."

"Yes."

After lying down for a few minutes, Morimi, who was the first to lie down, was also the first to sit up, and then pulled Haixing up as well.

"Are you coming anyway?" Naruse asked.

Morimi ignored him.

Naoko and Takikawa Hikaru soon got up and continued studying.

Naruse also sat back and asked them to adjust their positions, taking care of Hai Xing and Hikari Takikawa from left to right.

Facing the last study session that started again, several people inexplicably became more serious, so that no one noticed the passage of time.

This made Seiichiro Maki, who went upstairs to see this scene, very relieved.

"Mr. Seiichiro." Naruse, who had his back to the door, was the first to notice his arrival.

"It's getting late, I still have an exam tomorrow."

"Wow, it's already 10:30..."

Hikaru Takikawa glanced at the time, "This is definitely the most serious hours of my two years of high school study."

Naruse opened his mouth, forcing himself not to worry about her study attitude in the past two years, "Then let's stop here today."

"it is good……"

Several people stretched their waists and packed up the things on the table.

"Is Kazuha going to sleep at Haixing's house today?" Hikaru Takigawa asked.

"Ah."

"You can sleep at my house tomorrow too."

"talk later."

"So perfunctory!"

"There's an exam coming up."

After packing their things, Naruse, Naoko and Hikaru Takigawa said goodbye to the two of them and Seiichiro, and left Haisei's house.

Da da da--

The rain was still falling, but not too much, Naruse opened the umbrella, and Shangzi ducked in, holding his arm.

Hikaru Takikawa opened his umbrella, holding the drizzle and breeze, and followed the two of them.

"The exam is tomorrow."

"Ah."

"Although I don't worry too much now, I still hope that the exam will be easier."

"I hope so."

At the intersection, the two sides separate.

"Good night."

"Good night, Shangzi, Chunhai."

The rain became crystal clear under the street lamp, Hikari Takikawa waved his hand and walked forward alone.

After all, the range of light was limited, and she quickly stepped into darkness.

Seeing such a change from the corner of the eye, Naruse turned his head and glanced, the other shoulder immediately sank.

"so tired."

He lowered his head, kissed his girlfriend on the forehead, and when he raised his eyes again, he only looked forward.

"Going home."
