But...can the composure he possesses now be comparable to that of him when he was a child?

Not causing trouble to others, for Hashimoto Nanami, this was the biggest aura point she had in Hirai-san in her eyes when she was in elementary school.

He is considerate and sensible, and always returns to his residence alone after school.

On my days off, I go to the supermarket alone to buy the ingredients I need for cooking at that time, just like if the furniture in my rental area breaks down, I will replace it myself.

Hmm... He also easily solved the coal and electricity problem at his home, not to mention saving his family a lot of money in the high cost of professional repairs.

Just the fact that he had rich life experience made my mother at that time extremely surprised, and she sincerely fell in love with this foreign boy.

During the three months he stayed in Asahikawa, his understanding of the school's surroundings far surpassed that of Hashimoto Nanami, a local.

Is the memory too strong?

However, he does have a photographic memory, and he can recite the knowledge in books by heart after just reading them once.

Hashimoto Nana is not the type who has a strong desire to win, but she is deeply stimulated by her opponent, so the only way to deal with it is to read.

The energy brought by a person immersed alone in the world composed of words can sublimate the body and mind.

Being constantly transformed and reborn in this state is the most wonderful thing I have long thought.

Even the moment before these people spoke, Hashimoto Nanami, who introduced herself calmly, thought so.

But...the world in books and the real world are destined not to be connected.

We can understand the character outline of each character in the book through the written stories composed by the author from a God's perspective, and try to figure it out.

But no matter how you guess about the people you face in reality, you can feel that there is an impenetrable wall between you and them.

Therefore, at this moment, I look directly into the eyes of "them" with different appearances in the crowd.

In just a moment, a disgusting fear arose spontaneously.

Social phobia is the biggest weakness in Hashimoto Nana's character.

Taki would continue to cast warm gazes whenever he looked at her, and the warmth revealed in those eyes would make him feel encouraged. The phenomena displayed by these people were different.

It seems that after the girl knows these people, she will ridicule herself even more unscrupulously, just like those people in school separate her from the whole world in an isolated way.

In the end, all that was left was the boring experience of chest pain even when I breathed.

"I am... 19 years old this year. From now on... please take good care of me."

Standing under the tent, Hashimoto Nana lowered her head and looked at her feet.

Surrounded by these sights that seemed full of interest, but in fact those interests had quietly turned into contempt a long time ago, a sense of superiority that Tokyoites have over country people.

Moreover, Nana Hashimoto never thought of scolding these people loudly.

"What's wrong with Asahikawa? Asahikawa is a much better place than Tokyo." Or squinting at the other person in a bad tone.

"Don't underestimate Asahikawa, you money-worshiping girls from Tokyo."

If you want to make a girl from Tokyo angry, simply using "worshiping money" as the reason would be a very good excuse.

Women from most places look down on Tokyo women. They think that these people of the opposite sex who always dream of marrying a white-collar man with a stable income, a civil servant, etc. can spend the rest of their lives in peace. Of course, if they can marry

There is nothing better than joining a chaebol.

Rather than saying that he has his own set of strict standards for marriage, it is better to say that he is looking for a suitable... successor.

And what she has to pay is just the conditions needed to become a "perfect wife".

Generally speaking, women in Tokyo have been labeled as "scheming" for a long time.

It seems that it will be a very difficult challenge for Nana Hashimoto to become friends with these Tokyo girls in the future.

The breeze blew by, and the long hair that was already draped over the shoulders was blown one by one.

No matter when the gust of wind stops, the hostility lurking around shows no sign of disappearing.

Maybe they will continue forever, as long as I continue to chat with Hirai-san and look very close.

Therefore, how to deal with this situation has become a question that I must consider next.

Or he might try his best to endure it, being indifferent to the people around him, praising and slandering him like he used to do in the past.

No matter whether you know or are not aware of the teasing of your classmates, you can always react easily and resolve it at critical moments.

Or they may keep hypnotizing themselves, telling them “they are just irrelevant people”.

No matter what, if you don't resolve the immediate crisis, it means that you will soon be eliminated from the survival of this new place in Tokyo, and then you will board the train back to Hokkaido with a variety of emotions such as disappointment and regret.

Your family will accept you as always, that's all.

I have always shown that I am very strong, and I put all the responsibilities and burdens on my fragile body. Occasionally, I show a rare vulnerability when facing people who are close to me and can trust me. This is not a shame.

idea.

Let go of everything and accept other people's arrangements.

Kenta kept saying, "Sister, it would be great if you could find a boyfriend in Tokyo. I would also be very happy to have someone who can take care of you as my younger brother."...

A man who can take care of himself, not only take care of himself but also lead himself, and also make himself feel excited, is a dream come true for such a man.

Nana Hashimoto, who was in a haze, began to fantasize about the crazy thoughts that were suppressed by reason after the death of her father.

After all, I am also an ordinary girl.

Then... suddenly there was a hint of warmth on my shoulders.

Turning his head, what came into view was a hand with a healthy complexion.

The fingertips are transparent and have been trimmed and trimmed. There is no dust in the nail caps.

Following this hand, she saw a look of sincere comfort from Taki, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will dare to bully you."

With me here, no one dares to bully you.

Hashimoto Nana's eyes widened at the direct impact of these words.

Although I feel a little embarrassed to say this, when I heard the opposite sex say "protective" words to me for the first time in my life, I would have felt something numb all over my body before, but at this moment, like magic, my heart that was about to die started to beat again.

.

Thanks to his hands and these words, she realized how cold her body temperature had become.

In this way, can it be understood that his uneasiness, embarrassment, and the fear sweeping over him were all felt by him in front of him at this moment?

In fact, I almost forgot, Takiichi is also a person who is very good at observing others.

Some forgotten moments from those three months began to come back like a tidal wave.

On the first day we were tablemates, my body suddenly broke out with gastroenteritis before physical education class. The things in my stomach were twisted together like a rope tied in a knot, and the pain was unbearable.

When the classmates around him thought he was just sleeping on the table, he was the first to notice something strange about him.

He was almost hit by a basketball on the sports field, and he was the one who quickly hugged himself from behind and fell to the ground...
