In the afternoon, Dou Tang took Huai Yin to the aquarium, where they ran into Kume Chinatsu at the entrance.
Kume Chinatsu pouted slightly, looking a little unhappy, but she couldn't help but feel overjoyed when she saw Tou Tang appear. She staggered over to his side.
"Um... Kiryu-kun, are you done with your work?"
Dou Tang felt a little apologetic for his sudden departure earlier, scratching his head and saying, "I'm done with work. I'm really sorry about what happened earlier..."
"It's okay, it's okay!" Chinatsu Kume quickly waved her hand: "Being suddenly asked to appear on camera... you must have felt really awkward, right? I'm sorry, Tsukishima-nee is just someone who acts on a whim..."
At this moment, she noticed that Huaiyin had changed her hairstyle. She didn't wear any braids, and her smooth and soft long hair draped behind her, making her look graceful. However, her expression was not good. Even though she was sulking, her pursed lips made her look extremely cute.
"What's wrong with Huaiyin?"
Dou Tang explained somewhat embarrassedly, "I accidentally got something dirty on her head earlier... so I went back to the house to wash her hair."
Huaiyin gave a cute hum and sulked with her arms crossed.
But she wasn't unreasonable. Although she was sulking, she would still glance at Dou Tang from time to time, as if hoping he would come and coax her.
But who is Dou Tang? He's the ultimate indifferent person. Although he really wanted to coax Huaiyin, he didn't say it in the end, which left Huaiyin somewhat disappointed.
He was always responsive to every request in life, but always shallow and restrained in matters of the heart.
The three of them went to meet at the entrance of the aquarium and found that Nagaibuki and the other two had also finished their IV drips. After confirming that they were in good health, they arrived at the entrance of the aquarium.
Ms. Xingzi, holding a small red flag, was adjusting her portable megaphone like a tour guide, while many students were already talking to each other in front of her.
"Kiryu-kun!" Mizue waved; she was the most outgoing person.
The six of them gathered together, greeted each other, and then Ruizhi and Xiangmiao went to find their own small groups. After all, normal students would have their own social circles, and it was impossible for someone like Doutang, whom they had only known for a few days, to immediately win them over just because of the protagonist's halo.
However, Nagaibuki and Kume Chinatsu stayed behind because they belonged to the student council. Nagaibuki was too busy with student council affairs to have any close friends in class, while Kume Chinatsu...
She spent almost no time at school and had very few friends.
After all, she was an idol, and many of her classmates admired and respected her, but no one dared to take a step forward.
She wouldn't have dared to do that before, let alone now that she's so close to Dou Tang.
It should be noted that Dou Tang is now famous at Yi Yan Private Academy, and has even solidified his reputation as a delinquent. The delinquents' attitude towards him makes the rumors of his origins in the underworld seem more credible.
Kume Chika, who was associated with Dou Tang, was naturally even more unapproachable.
However, Chinatsu Kume didn't care.
Kume Chika smiled and took Kaion's hand, followed closely by Toudou and Nagaibuki, who stood in front of Kyoko-sensei.
Aquariums and marine life have always held a rather unique place in Japanese folklore.
May the famous aquarium theorem bless me so that my confession of love will be successful!
This is one example.
Aquariums have long been considered by young Japanese men and women as the ideal place to enhance their relationships. When the blue water curtain hangs down in front of you, and the waves surge behind the several-meter-high glass wall, with schools of fish flowing and swaying in the air, you look at the person you like next to you, only to find that they are also looking at you.
The two were bathed in the shimmering light of the sea, and life from the ocean slowly passed by them, but they could only see themselves in each other's eyes.
A smile exchanged between them, a joyful meeting, and your relationship is already halfway done!
Express your feelings, say some ambiguous things that only riddle-like people can understand, but don't confess your love. If the other person blushes, their heart races, and they are at a loss for words!
That's it!
This is the aquarium theorem!
But if you stand in front of a glass curtain wall and look at the other person, you'll find that they're looking down at their phone, chatting with someone else without even glancing at you, or busy running around looking for the best angle for a selfie but don't want you in the picture at all.
Hmm... When I get back, I'll burn the aquarium ticket stub, then pretend to be an adult and go to the convenience store to buy a bunch of alcohol. I'll eat cheap takoyaki while crying to my friends about how much I love that person and drowning my sorrows in alcohol.
Such criticism is a bit too harsh, but that's the truth.
No one can resist an aquarium, no one!
But Dou Tang doesn't care!
Looking at his excited classmates, Dou Tang had a...
Annoying.
Why are these people so excited about just looking at fish?
Speaking of fish, how about we go back to that izakaya tonight? I'd like to learn how to make that sashimi shreds dish... It seems like Huaiyin really likes it.
Ms. Kyoko waved her little flag: "Alright, students! Look over here!"
The students lined up, while Dou Tang stood at the very back, his towering 1.83 meters making him stand out.
Seeing that Dou Tang had also arrived, Teacher Xingzi nodded in satisfaction, and then called out each student's name before explaining, "Alright, students, it's now... 2:30. Let's wander around inside for half an hour first, and then we'll go to the aquarium's open-air theater to watch the marine animal show. Don't forget, we'll be at the open-air theater at 3:00!"
The students responded that they should, and Ms. Kyoko nodded and began leading the group into the room.
As soon as they entered the aquarium, the students scattered like birds, and a few pairs of boys and girls quietly slipped away, avoiding the crowd.
Dou Tang suddenly remembered her own past; there was once a young man who confessed his feelings to her sister, and then…
……
What did I do after that?
He squeezed Huaiyin's palm, raising an eyebrow as he thought.
...It seems like they beat the other side so badly they were hospitalized...?
At this moment, Ms. Kyoko walked over, looked at Toudou and said, "Kiryu-kun, I heard that you went to the hospital to see Nagato and the others. I was quite surprised."
Nagaibuki and Kume Chinatsu were right next to him. Nagaibuki smiled when he heard this. It was obviously him who told the teachers. He wanted to take this opportunity to improve Doutang's image in the teachers' eyes.
After all, Dou Tang had so confidently told him that he wasn't a delinquent, so he should help clarify things for him!
I wonder what his reaction was after learning that Dou Tang had more than a dozen bald underlings and had defeated dozens of people.
Ms. Kyoko exchanged a few pleasantries and then let the four of them go, since it was free time afterwards.
As soon as the group disbanded, Kume Chinatsu and Ayane excitedly grabbed each other's hands and rushed into the underwater tunnel, taking pictures of each other, leaving only Toudou and Chang Yibuki walking together.
Looking at the petite and gentle Nagaibuki beside him, Tou Tang suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Nagaibuki smiled shyly, wanting to find a topic to talk about.
"Kiryu-kun... do you know anything about fencing?"
fencing?!
Dou Tang's face immediately darkened.
Chapter 109 is just too gay!
Seeing that Dou Tang's expression was off, Chang Yichui also became somewhat timid and shrank back.
"Kiryu-kun, did I say something strange?"
"No...it's nothing, please continue." Dou Tang's expression was strange, but he thought to himself that the other person probably didn't want to play some kind of 'jill bumper' game with him, and that he was just overthinking it.
But there's no way to stop thinking about it, after all, Nagaibuki is really the kind of boy who is very thin and cute, with a gentle and soft personality, even...
Hmm... he's even closer to the definition of a Yamato Nadeshiko than Chinatsu Kume?
Dou Tang suddenly shuddered, stopping his increasingly bizarre thoughts.
"Look at Kiryu-kun's body, it's really very muscular. Do you work out regularly?" Nagaibuki looked at Toudou's body with some envy.
Dou Tang coughed twice.
Why is this person mixing up one obnoxious line after another?
"I guess so, since I often encounter some physical labor when I'm working. Changjun, just say what you want to say."
Chang Yi let out an "oh," and the two walked through a long corridor. On both sides of the corridor were various jellyfish being raised in tanks. The two stopped in front of a tank window.
Chang Yichui stood with his hands behind his back, smiling brightly. His dimples were very obvious when he smiled, and he looked quite... no, very cute.
"Recently, the fencing club asked the student council for help. They said there was a fencing competition between various universities, and they won a silver medal. They wanted to take advantage of this momentum to recruit some new members and asked if I had any good candidates."
He stretched out his slender, fair fingers and tapped Dou Tang's chest. His fingernails shimmered and glistened under the mesmerizing jellyfish-shaped lights, making them look exactly like a woman's fingers.
"That's why Kiryu-kun was the first person I thought of! After all, Kiryu-kun is very strong and has recently been harassed by delinquents. If he joins a club, he can practice all the time after school, which will prevent those delinquents from blocking his door!"
That sounds like a good idea.
Nagaibuki continued, "Hehe, actually I used to be a member of the fencing club too, Kiryu-kun, you see."
After saying that, he took out his phone, found a photo in his album, and handed it to Dou Tang.
The person in the photo is wearing a tight-fitting fencing outfit, with a slender and well-proportioned figure. Their long legs are comparable to those of any female model, and they are crossed together.
He held his sword naturally with one hand, while the other hand gripped his helmet. His long, smooth hair cascaded over his delicate face, giving him a charming and alluring look. Not to mention his half-closed eyes, slightly weary, his gaze unfocused as he looked down at the ground, with beads of sweat dripping from his drooping hair.
……
Dou Tang's eye twitched.
This is a photo that would cause countless screams if it appeared on any crossdressing enthusiast forum.
Dou Tang coughed, trying his best to clear his mind of those useless thoughts, shook his head and handed the phone back: "I'm sorry, Changjun, I have to spend all my time after school with Huaiyin or working."
. "
Nagaibuki was a little disappointed. She took back her phone and tightened it in her back pocket, saying, "Okay... it's alright, Kiryu-kun. You're doing this for your sister. I'll find someone else."
Dou Tang breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, the jellyfish swaying and fluttering nearby caught Nagaibuki's attention. His eyes lit up and he said, "Kiryu-kun, shall we go see the jellyfish?"
The two arrived at the jellyfish tank. Nagaibuki seemed very interested in these lazy and dreamy creatures of the ocean, resting her hands on the glass and watching intently.
"Wow... Kiryu-kun, look at this! This jellyfish looks like a water balloon!"
Dou Tang didn't rush to answer. Instead, he looked around and saw Kume Chinatsu and Huaiyin taking a photo together not far away, which put his mind at ease.
He looked at the introduction on the side and read it aloud.
"Uh, the globular comb jelly is a species of jellyfish belonging to the phylum Ctenophora, class Tentaculata, order Coccidioides, and genus Ctenophora. It is also known as the globular lateral arm jellyfish..."
He continued reading until the last sentence, when he choked up.
"Female, hermaphroditic..."
He glanced at Nagaibuki, who was still intently focused on the jellyfish, and suddenly shuddered.
No, no... why does the atmosphere always feel weird when I'm alone with this guy? Damn it.
"Ahem, Nagatoshi, shall we go find Kume and the others?"
Chang Yichui took two photos with some reluctance. He seemed to really like jellyfish, biting his lower lip and looking back every few steps, making Dou Tang feel like a scumbag.
The two passed by a tall glass curtain wall, behind which was a large ocean pool where a wide variety of marine life swam freely.
Chang Yi's eyes lit up.
Dou Tang quickly stepped forward to stop him: "No, no, no, Chang Jun, let's watch it together with Kumi and the others later, okay?"
Damn it, there are couples all around us whispering sweet nothings. If I were to stand next to a handsome young man like you, what would happen?
"okay."
Pulling along Nagaibuki, the two quickly went to find Kume Chinatsu and Ayane.
The two were taking a picture in front of the shark tank, pouting.
The sharks behind them seemed to have some intelligence, swimming around the two of them. Huaiyin saw the sharks constantly entering the frame through the selfie camera and smiled happily.
When Toudou arrived, Kume Chinatsu quickly came up and pulled him and Nagaibuki back against the screen wall of the shark tank.
"Don't move, don't move, I'll take a picture of you!" Kume Chinatsu took two steps back and excitedly picked up her phone, but after a while, she put it down again, her face full of confusion.
"Huh, that's weird..."
As if sensing something, the sharks in the pool behind began to dislike being photographed, and even avoided coming near the glass side, gathering at the other end of the shark tank.
Dou Tang turned around, frowned, and took two steps back.
Only then, as if given permission, did the sharks begin to slowly approach the glass.
Chinatsu Kume's eyes widened: "Eh? Kiryu-kun? Try taking a few more steps forward?"
Dou Tang hummed in agreement and moved closer to the glass curtain wall. Sure enough, the sharks flicked their tails and swam away again, completely ignoring Dou Tang.
...Did the shark reject me?
