The pirate ship in Hakone is not the kind that hangs on a machine and rocks back and forth like in an amusement park. It is a sightseeing ship that is decorated like a pirate ship and goes up the sea.

Aikawa Yusei and Amamiya Chisome stood at the stern of the boat, looking at the vast sea, with several fish making ripples on the water from time to time.

The waves stirred up like a long white dress dotting the blue sea.

The sky is blue and clear, and the sun hanging high in the west is still bright and dazzling, but it should become dim in the near future.

It was already on the way back, and the training camp had come to an end.

Facing the wet and salty sea breeze, he lifted all his hair back and let them sway more freely and crazily. Aikawa Yusheng lay on the guardrail and enjoyed the tranquility of the moment.

"It's going to be over soon, and I have to go back to face the endless study." Facing the sea and Amamiya Chiran, Aikawa Yuo said.

"I will help you, Wednesday." Amamiya Chiran stood nearby, pressing the hem of her skirt that was trying to let go with her hands - even though she was obviously wearing safety pants.

"Yeah." Aikawa Yusheng nodded and sighed: "The training camp is quite interesting. I don't know when the next activity will be."

"Is every link interesting?" Amamiya Chiran asked.

"Except for yesterday's etiquette training."

As if to resist this, Aikawa Yusheng also unbuttoned the third button of his collar. If the perspective was that of the seagulls lingering on the horizon, he could now clearly look down on his abdomen.

Amamiya Chiran blinked and reflected in Haitian's eyes: "The student union should also pay attention to etiquette..."

"President, your trembling mentality is about to show up again, right? I refuse such activities and I protest." Aikawa Yusheng looked sideways at Amamiya Chiran and expressed his dissatisfaction.

Aikawa Yusheng remembers her theory of "If you are not happy, she will be happy".

"What is trembling?"

"I don't know." Aikawa Yusheng shook his head, and Amamiya Chiran looked at him suspiciously.

Soon after, the ship slowly docked. The car and bodyguards who were already waiting here then boarded the car with Chizo Amamiya. Aikawa Yuo followed the others and took the bus back to Tokyo.

All day today, the seat next to Aikawa Yusheng was empty.

◇

The night view of Tokyo is indeed not as good as the one seen on Mount Hakone. The flashing neon lights completely cover up the light of the stars and the moon, making the night look like day.

Carrying two backpacks and pulling a suitcase, Aikawa Yuo got off the subway station and headed to his apartment in Kagurazaka.

"Dong dong dong! Is there anyone there?"

After pressing the doorbell, Aikawa Yusheng knocked on the door with the back of his finger.

Until the voice-activated light went out, the residents on the third floor did not show up, and the door was closed tightly.

It seemed that neither Tianhe Xia Li nor Shangying Kongfeng had returned yet, their hopes were in vain, and in Aikawa Yusheng's eyes, the night became a bit darker.

He took all his luggage to the fourth floor first and saw his guest at the door.

The crawling puppy had already heard the sound of someone walking on the stairs, huddled in the corner of the cage, and stared at the visitor cautiously.

It seems that I took a special bath before coming here. Although the hair on the body is still alopecia areata, and the overall condition of the puppy does not look very good, it can clearly feel that it is much 'newer' than when it was at Qifengzhuang.

, the hair is also more fluffy.

The speed is quite fast. After paying in the morning, I arrived in the evening, even earlier than I came back.

However, the island country is only so small. As long as you don’t cross the island, the delivery time does not need to be very long, not to mention that you have increased the price.

After discovering that it was Aikawa Yusei, the puppy stood up and barked at him a few times. However, compared with when he was on the back of Miss Miko's hand, both the volume and momentum of the barks were much lower - even

Wagging his tail.

He is really a puppy who knows how to assess the situation - now he may have mistakenly thought that he was its new owner.

Could it be that you are holding back now, thinking about biting your own neck when you fall asleep one day?

Aikawa Yusheng regarded this puppy with the utmost malice.

"Little guy, you have fallen into my hands and are waiting for death." He said the vicious words in a relaxed tone, and the puppy, which could not understand human speech, even barked a few times in agreement.

After opening the door and temporarily placing the two girls' luggage at the door, Aikawa Yusheng walked towards the living room holding the dog cage and his own luggage.

Everything is no different from when I left, except that the water has not been replaced for three days, and the irises grown in hydroponics have become severely stunted. I don't know if I can continue to persist.

After changing the water for it, Aikawa Yusheng shouted to it, "Come on", full of enthusiastic expectations.

After all, this is one of the few decorations in this house.

Aikawa Yusheng opened the small door of the cage and took the puppy out. The posture of holding the puppy was very inelegant - his hands were wrapped around the lower part of the puppy's forelimbs, and the belly and lower parts were hanging freely.

"You're still just a little bitch." After glancing at it from the corner of his eye, Aikawa Yusheng came to the conclusion, "Let's call you 'Fengkong'."

The puppy was quite well-behaved, so it didn't struggle in Aikawa Yusheng's hands. Of course, it didn't react at all to the so-called name - when Kamizakura Kongfeng was present and when he wasn't present, it was simply two dogs.

Put the puppy on the ground and let it step directly on the tile floor. Although it had just taken a bath, Aikawa Yusheng could still clearly see the footprints caused by its walking and a few fallen hairs.

It doesn't matter, I was planning to simply tidy up the room tomorrow, and the floor would have to be mopped, so there would be no shortage of these footprints.

However, the mop at home was broken last time because I accidentally squeezed it hard, so I have to go out and buy one later.

I took inventory of the puppy's dowry, and found that there were not many, including an iron cage that smelled of urine, a dog bowl that smelled of urine, a toy ball that smelled of urine, and a bag of dog food that had no peculiar smell——

Because it is placed on top of the cage and tied.

After pouring some clean water and dog food for it, Aikawa Yusheng went to the bathroom to take a bath.

◇

"We're almost running out of shampoo."

After wiping his wet hair with a towel, Aikawa Yusheng came out of the bathroom, counted the supplies at home, put on his clothes and pants, and went downstairs to the supermarket.

...

"We have the cooking oil." He put the barrel of cooking oil into the trolley. After thinking about it, Aikawa Yusheng put it back and bought two barrels.

One bucket costs 1,200 yen, but two buckets only cost 1,800 yen!

Aikawa Yusheng praised his shrewd mind.

"ここにもういれなくなっちゃったもう,行かなくちゃホントゴメンね..."

The cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang, and Aikawa Yusheng answered the phone while checking to see if there was any more affordable cooking oil.

"Moxi Moxi, hello?"

"Aren't you at home?" Shang Yingkongfeng's clean and pure voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

"Shang Ying?"

"Um."

"I'm not at home now. I'm shopping in the supermarket downstairs. Have you gone home already?"

"I'm at your door now. Has the puppy arrived? The deliveryman called me this afternoon." You can hear a rare hint of urgency in Shang Yingkongfeng's tone.

The consignee and address were filled in with Shang Yingkongfeng's address. It should have been a sign from the girl to leave it at the door of her house.

"We're here. It's at my house. I'll wait until I finish shopping and then go upstairs to open the door for you. You can go home and sit for a while." He hasn't finished shopping yet, and Aikawa Yusheng still needs some time.

"I'm going down now, and I want to buy a lot of things there."

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the daily necessities area."

"Um."

When Aikawa Yusheng was hesitating whether to buy ten wire brushes for 150 yen or 1,000 yen, the girl appeared next to her.

"Which one do you think is more suitable? Whichever one you say, I will buy." Aikawa Yusheng, frowning, pointed at these two things and handed the choice to her.

"You might as well want them all. The wire brush is a consumable anyway. You can try which one is suitable." After taking a casual look, Shang Yingkongfeng said.

"Friends don't lie to friends, then I want them all." Aikawa Yusheng threw both types of wire brushes into the shopping cart.

After buying the mop and shampoo, Aikawa Yusheng consciously pushed the shopping cart to the pet area.

"Its dowry includes... dog food. The original owner said that if you want to change the dog food, you must change it little by little. At first, let him eat the old dog food..."

Aikawa Yusheng repeated the precautions he had heard before, and Shangying Kongfeng listened very carefully. Zhenshou clicked every time Aikawa Yusheng paused in his speech.

Teachers will definitely like such students very much.

This gave Aikawa Yusheng an inexplicable sense of accomplishment that he was more knowledgeable than her in this aspect.

"Did you remember it wrong just now? That's not what the information I checked before said." After hearing this, Shangying Kongfeng questioned one of the points.

"Look."

Shang Yingkongfeng took out her mobile phone and clicked on the memo. There were a lot of notes written on it. Many of the notes were even followed by a website link.

She showed it to Aikawa Yusheng and clicked on a link. The name of the website was Animal House. No matter how you looked at it, it was more authoritative than a boy with an average memory.

"Subject to yours." Aikawa Yusheng's eloquent attitude stopped abruptly.

The teacher definitely doesn't like this student who questions herself. Of course, the most important thing is that when she questions, she is really wrong.

"Which one of these two do you think is more delicious?" Shang Yingkongfeng frowned slightly, showing a thoughtful posture, looking at the two kinds of dog food, a little confused.

"I think so," Aikawa Yusheng said with a dark face, "When you ask me which dog food is better, I suspect you are insulting me, but I have no definite evidence.

I really haven’t eaten it, so I can’t answer this question, but you can buy them both in small bags and try them to see which one you like.”

However, the prices of these two kinds of dog food are quite high. It will not eat better than myself. It seems possible - Aikawa Yusheng.

"Well, that makes sense." Shang Yingkongfeng nodded and put both kinds of dog food into the shopping cart.

"By the way, have you thought about its name? You can't keep calling it a puppy."

"Not yet." Miss Miko shook her head, her brows that had just been loosened were knitted together again. Under the lights of the supermarket, her skin was white and spiritual.

"I have a suggestion."

"you say."

"How about calling it 'Fengkong'?"

"No." Shangying Kongfeng didn't even want to say a few more words.

"Then you decide for yourself. It's a pity that after raising a dog, you can communicate more with it, but it won't understand it anyway. Talking to it will help you to please yourself and improve your mood and mentality.

...You really don’t consider ‘Fengkong’?”

"Regardless of it, if I call it 'koko' I won't give it a name like 'Fengkong'."

Koko (ココ) is the most popular name given to puppies in the island country. Say "koko" in the pet park, and maybe a dozen pet dogs will look at you.

"Your ability to name is about the same as your current level of knowledge." Regarding the fact that you have no ability to name at all, Kamizakura Kongfeng said very elegantly.

"Could it be that if you had a pet, you would call it 'Shengyu'?"

"Yes." Aikawa Yusheng nodded sincerely.

Shangying Kongfeng: "......"

"What do you raise?" Stunned by such an answer for half a second, Shang Yingkongfeng's eyes showed a troubled look, but then she looked at the boy curiously.

"A piece of stone." The original name he gave to his "jade" friend was "Shengyu".

"..." Shangying Kongfeng regretted asking this question and sighed softly helplessly.

You should reconsider whether you should try your best to be friends with him - after all, although he is very old, he may have some brain problems.

"You look down on stones?" Aikawa Yusheng argued. "Stones don't eat or drink. They can be carried with you at any time. They listen to you and don't make noises. They are such good companions. They don't take up any space, and they don't take up much space."

I will dislike how you treat it..."

Shang Yingkongfeng didn't argue with him, but looked at Aikawa Yusheng's eyes, with pity taking up most of the emotion - as if he was looking at a hopeless patient.

"...And even if the stone sleeps for decades, it will still be there when you wake up..." Aikawa Yusheng became more and more powerless as he spoke.

◇

After finishing shopping, the two of them returned to the apartment with all their belongings in hand.

Opening the door, I saw the puppy sitting in the entrance. When the puppy noticed the presence of Kamizakura Kongfeng, he ignored Aikawa Yusheng and walked up to walk around the girl's slender legs, rubbing his head from time to time.

Rub her white socks.

The girl didn't even bother to take off her shoes. With a faint smile on her face, she knelt down and stroked the puppy's head.

"'Fengkong'! Look at what a good thing you have done!" After putting all the things inside the door and discovering the incriminating evidence, Aikawa Yusheng stood at the door with his hands on his hips and said.

The moonlight through the window illuminated a pool of water stains on the tiles.

"Why are you so unqualified? What's wrong with urinating everywhere?" Aikawa Yusheng sighed.

"Woof!" Sure enough, when Shangying Kongfeng was present, the puppy became much more courageous, and when faced with Aikawa Yusheng's gaze, it barked back fiercely.

He is completely different from just now.

At the same time, Shang Yingkongfeng also gave him a cold look at his acquiescence in the name "Fengkong".

"It's still small," she said.

"If you spoil it so much, it will spoil the child."

After mopping the ground with the broken old mop, Aikawa Yusheng threw the mop directly into the trash can, looked at Kamizakura Kongfeng and said helplessly.

"Your luggage is also at the door. That's the one. Did you see it? Do you want me to help you take it upstairs? Where's Tianhe, are you back?"

It was not convenient to ask when I was in the supermarket. After checking that there were no urine stains on the carpet, Aikawa Yusheng sat on it and asked in a slow tone.

"Not yet, I'm just coming back temporarily and I have to go back to the shrine tomorrow." Shangying Kongfeng shook her head.

"Is she okay?"

"Well, it has indeed been verified that she has nothing to do with the attack on you. There is just some information that needs to be verified by her presence."

Aikawa Yusheng nodded and played with the iris, whose petals were already limp because of his hair.

"So what did that 'Himeno' originally plan to do to me?" Aikawa Yusheng was now curious about the matter that had the greatest bearing on him.

"I'm not sure. You need to ask the teacher about this. During the interrogation, only the teacher is present."

It is definitely because Huyue Jingxuexia is afraid that Ji Ye will tell some bad news about her and arouse the covetous attention of other people who may be interested.

You are protecting your own [time].

Shang Yingkongfeng put the puppy into its original cage, took everything with him, and prepared to leave.

When she walked to the door, the miko lady turned her head, her pretty little face seemed to be dizzy at a certain moment, and then she bent down slightly:

"I still need to thank you in person for helping me inquire about buying it, thank you."

"You're welcome, but in return..." Aikawa Yusheng waved his hand.

"I can grant you one more request that is not excessive." Shangying Kongfeng nodded and continued his words.

"Ah? Oh, that's fine, can you make a small request as well?" Aikawa Yusheng had no reason not to agree to Bai Piao's request.

"What?"

"What kind of bird was the 'woodpecker' that day?" This was the 'return' Aikawa Yuo really wanted to propose.

"If I read it correctly, it's a gray starling."

"Is it to protect animals? Can it be grilled and eaten?" Aikawa Grudge Yusheng asked.

"...."

The door is closed.

Why did you leave without answering the question? It's not polite.
