Chapter 73 Sleeping(1/2)

After seeing the person clearly, Zonggu lay down on the hospital bed again after the accident.

"It turns out to be Jingzi. Did you skip class too?"

Seeing that her usual bed by the window was occupied, Sugawara Kyoko sat down on another adjacent bed.

"I just came here to rest."

"Yeah."

It seems that she came back from Kyoto very late yesterday.

Zonggu covered his mouth and yawned, "By the way, I saw that photo."

"Photo?" Kyoko looked at him, "What photo?"

“‘Destroy the devil with one arrow’.”

"..."

She pursed her lips and said after a while: "If you want it, Sogu, I can give you that calligraphy."

"I don't want it."

Zong Gu had just started to feel sleepy, and he suddenly woke up with a smile, "If it's something practical, I might accept it."

Jingzi said no more, lay down on the bed and closed the curtain.

Zonggu shook his head and closed the curtain on his side.

As soon as he sat up, her voice came from behind the curtain again: "Sotani-kun, I heard Miss Noma talk about yesterday's events, thank you."

Soya was startled, and then he remembered that he was on the field trip with Minami Noma on her behalf.

"You are welcome."

He lay back on the hospital bed without closing the curtains, "Now this is my job too."

She seemed to laugh, but quickly stopped.

"I heard from Ms. Noma that the resentful spirit in yesterday's incident mutated into an evil spirit. Before the incident got worse, it was Soya-san who took action to eliminate it."

"Easy to do."

Kyoko was silent for a while.

"Sotani-san, I want to see the complete report on this incident as soon as possible."

Zonggu turned to look at the curtain, "Why?"

"Because Ms. Noma spoke very highly of Soya-san's actions in this incident... I want to know the details."

"Really?" He smiled, "You don't have to wait so long, I can tell Jingzi now."

As if waiting for his words, the curtain next to him suddenly opened.

Jingzi sat on the edge of the bed with a calm expression: "Please."

"...If you look at it like this, I can't tell you."

Zong Gu motioned her to lie down and said he didn't mind.

"I would mind."

"I just want to lie down," Soya said. "I would mind even more if Kyoko looks at me with such a serious face."

"..."

She had no choice but to lie back on the bed and look at him sideways.

Zonggu was lying on his back, looking at the ceiling above his head, "Where should I start?"

"From the very beginning." Kyoko said immediately, "I want to hear the complete process without omissions."

"The beginning...it was yesterday at noon."

"Um."

"I'm eating."

"Have a meal?"

"Jingzi came to find me."

"..."

Jingzi immediately fell silent, just looking at his unchanged expression, not knowing whether he was deliberately teasing her.

"There's no need to start talking about it so early... Let's start when Soya-san meets the client."

Zong Gu pondered: "Let me think about it, when I saw that smelly old man..."

"...That's so rude, Soya-kun."

"When Ms. Noma told Kyoko, that's what she called her, right?"

Kyoko did not deny it.

"In short, please call him your client."

Zong Gu turned his head and looked at the bed next to him. She was lying on her side, with her serious face under her long hair.

"All right."

He took a deep breath to regain some energy from his fatigue.

"Yesterday, when we saw the client, it was about four o'clock in the afternoon..."

No one disturbs them, and time flows quietly in each other's conversation.

The sun outside the window climbed higher and higher towards the zenith, and the sounds in the health room became lower and lower, gradually becoming silent.

"Oh."

After a while, the health teacher who had been away for a long time finally returned and soon discovered something unusual.

"Is anyone resting in bed? Do you want the teacher to check?"

No response.

She walked over and saw two students lying on two hospital beds respectively, with the curtain in the middle open, sleeping opposite each other.

"Well, is this a new way for young lovers to play..."

...

Zonggu didn't open his eyes until noon.

"..."

Looking at the closed curtain of the bed opposite, he was stunned for a while, then looked back out the window, roughly estimating the time.

"Is it already noon?"

He sat up and saw only a pair of indoor shoes on the ground, so he opened the curtain opposite.

The bed was empty, and Kyoko had indeed left.

Because of some unavoidable entertainment, she went to bed very late last night, but it was still much earlier than him, and she didn't need to catch up on too much sleep.

"Oh, you're awake."

Zonggu followed the sound and then noticed the health teacher sitting in the office, "Which class are you in?"

"First-year Class A, Soya Yoshiaki."

"Sotani-san, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No. I just didn't sleep well last night."

"That's good. You can't stay up late too often. You have to pay attention to rest."

The health teacher nodded, pointed to the bread on the table and said, "There are only about twenty minutes left for lunch break. Souya-kun, please eat this and go back to class."

"..."

He was startled for a moment, then went over to pick up the bread and found that it was a special offering from the convenience store on campus.

Because of his poor condition, he did not prepare lunch for lunch today.

"Thank you, Tsukishima-sensei."

"No need to thank me."

Health teacher Tsukishima Chiaki stared at the mobile phone lying on the table, and took a moment to glance at him, "When Soya-san was sleeping, several girls came to see you. This is the one left for you by the most beautiful girl."

"……Yeah."

"Who do you think Soya-kun is?"

"..."

What's going on with this teacher?

"Sorry, I don't know."
