Chapter 12 Morning greetings from Ibuki Tamao
Half a minute later, we were at the end of the floor where the film department was located.
Kiritani Tetsuya, who had just completed the 100-meter sprint, was leaning on the stair railing with one hand and breathing heavily.
"Give."
After receiving the bottle handed over by Ibuki Tamao, Kiritani Tetsuya stood up straight and drank half of the bottle of water in the blink of an eye.
"The preparations for the afternoon have been completed. Tomorrow it will be up to Kiritani-san to perform."
Ibuki Tamao, who was standing quietly waiting for Kiritani Tetsuya to recover, said softly.
"I'll try my best."
Kiritani Tetsuya said with a despairing expression, as if he had not escaped from the "nightmare" just now.
"By the way, what kind of purchasing route have you planned for Utsunomiya-san? Can you let me have a look first?"
Kiritani Tetsuya was actually quite curious as to what kind of route Ibuki Tamao could plan for tomorrow's trip.
"Forgive me for rejecting this."
Unexpectedly, Ibuki Tamao shook his head decisively this time.
"Why?"
"If Kiritani-san knows too much about tomorrow's plans in advance, it may increase the risk of revealing the truth. After observing over the past few days, Kiritani-san is not a person who is good at acting."
"The two have nothing to do with each other," Tetsuya Kiritani couldn't help but complain.
"This is all for the smooth progress of tomorrow's travel plan. I hope Kiritani-san can understand. All Kiritani-san has to do tonight is to look forward to tomorrow's world with Utsunomiya-san and to have enough energy for it.
."
"Forget it, I'll know it tomorrow anyway."
Kiritani Tetsuya waved his hand and gave up the idea of continuing to ask Ibuki Tamao for the travel route.
"Please don't be so frustrated, Kiritani-san. As compensation, I will still tell you the first place she will go to tomorrow. This is also to prevent you from missing the opportunity to meet Utsunomiya-san smoothly."
Ibuki Tamao stood up on his tiptoes and touched the back of Kiritani Tetsuya's head, speaking in a comforting tone.
"I'm okay."
Kiritani Tetsuya, who was being caressed by Ibuki Tamao, suddenly thought of a picture of a gentle mother comforting an injured child for some reason. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and unconsciously quickened his pace and walked down the stairs first.
After finishing the subcontracting operation, the two people quickly returned to the original mobile classroom.
After finishing the preparations for tomorrow's trip, the two of them sat back at their easels with peace of mind and continued to paint their unfinished paintings.
After the club activities, Kiritani Tetsuya happened to finish the oil paintings that were required to be submitted every week, stretched his body that had been sitting for a long time, and was the first to pick up his schoolbag and prepare to leave the art department classroom.
Because he briefly studied painting for a period of time in junior high school, if he just painted some simple paintings that were used as attendance indicators, it usually took him an afternoon to complete them. After all, the things he painted were not sent out of school for evaluation or evaluation.
Holding an art exhibition is quite easy and enjoyable to handle.
Before leaving the mobile classroom, Kiritani Tetsuya glanced at the painting Ibuki Tamao was working on.
Although it is still in a semi-finished state, the level of creation and artistic beauty displayed in it have clearly exceeded Tetsuya Kiritani's previous knowledge of painting.
In fact, from the first few days when Tamao Ibuki joined the club, Tetsuya Kiritani felt that this girl's painting level was far superior to that of Hanada-senpai, who was the head of the art department.
Just because this matter did not have much to do with himself, and because he had been distracted by more important things these days, he did not specifically ask Ibuki Tamao about this matter.
Inwardly amazed, Kiritani Tetsuya withdrew his gaze and walked out of the slightly crowded art classroom.
Considering that he might have to arrive at the place where Miu Utsunomiya would pass tomorrow in advance to look for opportunities to meet him by chance, Kiritani Tetsuya chose to go to bed early after returning home and finishing what he had to do every day.
...
Weekend morning.
Before the sky was completely bright, Kiritani Tetsuya climbed out of bed to the sound of an alarm clock that sounded like a soul-death song.
Not knowing when Utsunomiya Miu would go out for shopping, he could only choose to get up early and stay in bed so as not to miss the opportunity to meet her.
Although it is also possible to ask Ibuki Tamao, who is also a friend, to inquire about Utsunomiya Miu's specific travel time to buy more time for him to sleep in, Kiritani Tetsuya who made this request was also threatened by Ibuki Tamao's plan.
Fall into the excuse of ruthless rejection.
After briefly brushing his teeth and washing up, Kiritani Tetsuya put on a fairly loose casual T-shirt and white shorts and walked out of the house, taking the first train to go to the store location Ibuki Tamao told him yesterday.
By the time Kiritani Tetsuya had completely arrived at the designated destination, it was not yet past seven o'clock. There were few people passing by on the street outside the entire store, and even the number of open stores was less than two hands, making it appear extremely deserted and quiet.
Kiritani Tetsu, who realized that he had arrived too early, also found an open coffee shop nearby, planning to drink coffee to kill the boring waiting time and refresh himself after getting up too early.
Ten minutes later, Kiritani Tetsuya basically woke up from his sleepy state, and the coffee he ordered was just delivered to his table.
“I wonder if having coffee for breakfast is a healthy lifestyle?”
After muttering something casually, Kiritani Tetsuya leisurely picked up the handle of the cup filled with coffee and was about to take a sip when the cell phone in his pocket rang.
"Hello, who's there?"
Kiritani Tetsuya immediately picked up the phone and answered.
"I felt relieved when I heard Kiritani-san's energetic voice."
A nice female voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Ibuki-san?"
Ibuki Tamao called me Kiritani Tetsuya so early in the morning that he was a little surprised.
"I just want to make a call to test whether Kiritani-san has overslept. If so, I can provide a wake-up call for Kiritani-san."
"If I had asked you to wake me up, it would have been too late." Tetsuya Kiritani replied slightly speechlessly.
"This phone call is not just for this matter, but also to tell Kiritani-san what I forgot to mention yesterday."
"What?"
"Remembering that Kiritani-san will be spending most of today with Utsunomiya-san, in order to make the plan go more smoothly, I feel it is necessary to tell you more information about Utsunomiya-san."
"for example?"
"For example, Utsunomiya-san has special abilities. I think this is what Kiritani-san has always wanted to know."
Hearing Ibuki Tamao say these words, Kiritani Tetsu unconsciously put down the coffee cup in his hand, and even his concentration increased to a higher level.
Utsunomiya Miu's special ability as the incarnation of the Lord God is indeed something Kiritani Tetsuya has always wanted to know. He has also made many speculations about it, but due to various reasons and certain scruples, he has never dared to tell Ibuki Tamao
Ask.
"Are you really willing to tell me this kind of thing?" Tetsuya Kiritani still confirmed in disbelief.
"It's okay even if Kiritani-san knows. This is also for Kiritani-san to get to know Utsunomiya-san better."
Speaking of this, Ibuki Tamao paused for a moment.
Chapter completed!
