Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Almost Physiologically Dead

He planned to stay here and wait for the police officers to arrive, but Asano Nazuki kept giving him a look as if he were a monster, which made him a bit uncomfortable.

Looks like she was scared. Shirakawa Sawahei thought to himself.

However, as a single straight guy whose age is the same as the number of years he’s been single, he’s powerless when it comes to comforting girls. So he could only choose to stare back at Asano Nazuki, both of them just looking at each other.

The little girl sighed and said gloomily, "Shirakawa, aren’t you planning to explain anything?"

"What’s there to explain?" Shirakawa Sawahei asked in confusion, "I acted in self-defense."

Asano Nazuki said speechlessly, "I’m not asking you to explain that..."

"Shirakawa, have you ever learned any martial arts or similar skills?"

"Sort of, I know a bit..."

Pah!

Matsuo Shigeru, who had been in a dogeza position, not daring to lift his head, cursed inwardly at the pretentious guy.

I hate people who pretend to be weak the most in my life! They all bully others!

"Who did you learn from?" The little girl persistently asked.

Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at her and thought to himself, do I really need to tell you that I learned my skills from Hayakawa Kashi?

"From books."

The little A-girl didn’t speak anymore, she frowned, seemingly unhappy with Shirakawa Sawahei’s attitude.

"Shirakawa..." Asano Nazuki said, "Do you really dislike me..."

"I know it, I know it all, obviously Shirakawa has been avoiding me all the time, but I still stubbornly want to cling to you... Whether in the club or in the class..."

"I must seem really annoying, right?" Tears suddenly welled up in Asano Nazuki’s black-and-white eyes as she wiped them while speaking.

Shirakawa Sawahei was stunned.

The little girl’s tears fell just like that, without any emotional brewing.

He initially thought this drama queen was acting, but if her acting was this genuine, then she must have a talent for acting on her dashboard.

She really just cries like that...

Shirakawa Sawahei suddenly had a bit of a headache, he didn’t have any major ill feelings towards this transfer student little girl, he just felt that her approach to him seemed not pure, hence he was a bit cautious.

But even so, there’s no need to cry so sadly...

Anyone who didn’t know might think we broke up.

Until the police came and took those people away, the little girl’s tears continued to flow incessantly. Shirakawa Sawahei had to go buy a bottle of water to prevent Asano Nazuki from crying herself into dehydration.

A member of the police who was making a record couldn’t help but say, "Hey, young man, why don’t you comfort your sister, girls tend to be more vulnerable when they are scared."

Shirakawa Sawahei’s face went dark, "She’s not my sister."

Upon hearing that, the person gasped, about to reach for the handcuffs on his waist, but then Shirakawa Sawahei continued, "She’s my... classmate."

"Oh, not your girlfriend. I thought you were dating an elementary school student..." The officer sighed in relief.

Asano Nazuki: ???

Being humiliated in person again, she couldn’t help but cry again.

Even though she cried for acting, the grievance was real. With her sweet little angel face, everywhere she went, she only received affection and praise. When had she ever been treated like this by Shirakawa Sawahei?

Damn it, this life, I will never reconcile with these sis-cons!

After the police officers left, only then did Shirakawa Sawahei squat down and sigh, "I’m sorry."

The little girl sobbed and said nothing.

He carefully chose his words and said, "Actually, I learned my skills from a girl..."

"Because she didn’t allow me to disclose it, so I kept this fact hidden."

Shirakawa Sawahei didn’t feel this counted as deceit, his skills were acquired from the learning program, and she wasn’t aware, so she couldn’t have agreed to let him reveal it.

The little girl paused for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Was it Hayakawa Kashi?"

Her tear-filled eyes stared straight at him, seemingly trying to discern something from his gaze. Of course, Shirakawa Sawahei wouldn’t be scared by such a minor test.

He replied calmly, "No."

"Why do you think it was Hayakawa?" he asked back, "Are you very familiar with her?"

The little girl wiped her eyes and explained, "Because you seem very close to Hayakawa, and she’s very strong... so it’s natural to have such suspicions..."

Now it was Shirakawa Sawahei’s turn to look at the little girl. He stared for a moment before withdrawing his gaze.

His intuition told him, this little girl indeed had some issues.

Asano Nazuki’s heart pounded, in her rush, she forgot to set up any cover and directly asked this question.

Looking at that pale face, it seemed he almost suspected something.

Damn, I was careless! Just you wait, pretty face, one day when we fall out, I’ll make you realize the terror of Lady Kaori!!

She secretly set this flag in her heart, her expression turned from cloudy to clear as she said, "Oh, I see... I misunderstood you, Shirakawa... Sorry..."

"Shirakawa, you won’t blame me, right?"

The little girl’s expression was so pitiful, anyone who saw it would want to gently reassure her it’s okay. Even if she caused great trouble, this angelic smile alone would be enough for many to forgive her unconditionally.

Shirakawa Sawahei supported her to stand up, noticing the dust on her skirt, he frowned and instinctively wanted to reach out and dust it off. But halfway, he remembered this was a girl, so his hand halted mid-air.

That was close, almost a social death.

Shirakawa Sawahei withdrew his hand, thinking it was fortunate she wasn’t Ise Yu Yuzhijin, otherwise, he’d have to face questions about whether he had ulterior motives.

Seeing Shirakawa Sawahei retract his hand, the muzzles of a certain group of bodyguards hiding in the shadows also silently retracted.

Young man, I didn’t expect you to be so bold. You almost died a physical death.

"How are you getting back?" Seeing the evening approaching, Shirakawa Sawahei couldn’t help but ask.

"I’ll take the train." Asano Nazuki pretended to look pitiful and said, "Shirakawa, do you want to join me?"

"No, I have something to do."

Shirakawa Sawahei checked the time, it seemed he still had extra lessons to attend today.

The tutoring originally scheduled at the school library had to be moved to another place because Ise Yu Yuzhijin felt there wasn’t a study vibe in the library.

If Oga Masato hadn’t caused trouble about finding people for revenge, he’d probably already met Ise Yu Yuzhijin at the ramen shop by now. Upon hearing this, Asano Nazuki’s tears almost started flowing again...

"So... Shirakawa still dislikes me, right..."

"..."

"...I’ll walk you back."

Hearing these words, Asano Nazuki gave a bright smile, her face showing a look that could belong to either a little angel or a little devil.

"Thank you, Shirakawa!" she said with a sweet smile, with a subtle glimmer of coldness in her eyes.
