Chapter 13 Thinking about Me
"Then what happens next..."

Shimizu returned to his room, locked the door, and lay on the bed, deciding to sort out the current situation.

It took him two and a half years to complete the first round of the game, and he has now forgotten some of the plots at the beginning of the game.

"But what happened to Amamiya today?"

Not to mention the way Amemiya Iori got closer to him every time they were alone, what shocked Shimizu Mi the most was that Amemiya Iori actually called him master.

Even in Act 1, she had never called him that.

Even though he had been in love countless times before, Shimizu Mi could not understand Amemiya Iori's feelings.

Thinking of this, Shimizu remembered that he had not yet thanked Amamiya Iori for helping him buy ingredients today.

Pick up the phone and click on Amamiya Iori's name in the contacts.

Just hit him like that.

It was past ten o'clock, and even though she might not be asleep yet, calling at night might cause trouble to others.

"If you don't answer after two rings, hang up..."

Shimizu thought so, but...

She answered immediately!
"Shimizu-kun, what's wrong?"

The soft and sweet voice of Amamiya Iori was immediately heard from the other end of the phone.

"Uh... sorry for calling you out of the blue."

Amemiya Iori answered the phone very quickly, which scared Shimizu Mi.

Judging from her speed, it would have been impossible for her to answer the call so quickly if she hadn't been holding the phone.

Qing Shuijian couldn't help but wonder, is she also considering calling me? But that shouldn't be possible, he thought with a wry smile.

"It's okay. I was actually wondering whether to call you. After all, the way we just separated was not a good one."

Indeed, the separation was not a pleasant one.

He still doesn't know why Kondo Aoi hates him so much. Although he cares, he doesn't intend to ask.

"Part of me was debating whether or not to call, but I was also thinking maybe Shimizu-kun would call. Looks like my wish has come true."

"..."

Amemiya Iori's words made Shimizu Mi feel a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

How could she say such embarrassing words so casually?

For Amamiya Iori, this was by no means a calculated act, and Shimizu Mi knew very well that this was her sincere words without any falsehood.

"By the way, Shimizu-kun suddenly called me. Is there something wrong?"

"I want to thank you for coming to help me buy ingredients today."

"Is this the only one?"

The words coming from the other end of the phone seemed to see through Qing Shuijian's thoughts.

Indeed, if this was the only reason, he would only need to send a thank you text message and there was no need to call her late at night to disturb her.

In fact, Shimizu Mi was very clear that he had just chosen to call because he had been thinking about Amamiya Iori and suddenly wanted to hear her voice.

Having said that, he couldn't just say nothing, so Shimizu immediately answered Amemiya Iori.

"Because I want to hear your voice." After listening to this, Amemiya Iori was silent for a while. Shimizu was wondering if something happened to her, when he suddenly heard a series of dong dong dong sounds.

"Shimizu-kun, come on. I'm very happy to hear you say it over the phone, but please say it face to face next time!"

"Then I'll talk to you again in person tomorrow."

"Shimizu-kun! Why are you on the other end of the phone right now! If you were by my side, I could hug you tightly!"

"That... is such a pity."

"Yeah! This distance is bothering!"

Amemiya Iori should be lying on the bed talking on the phone now.

The thumping sounds just now might be the sound of her feet tapping on the bed. It is a lovely sight to see Amamiya Iori behaving in such a childish way.

"Can I hug you tighter next time we meet?"

As we chatted, I felt relaxed, so I habitually said something like I did in the first act.

By the time Shimizu realized this, it was already too late.

As we all know, voice calls cannot be withdrawn.

Just as he was thinking of various remedies——

"Of course, as long as it's Shimizu-kun, you're welcome anytime! Even if Shimizu-kun doesn't want to, I'll do it!"

The unexpected answer surprised Shimizu.

"Yes, really..."

"Yes!"

Qingshuijian heard the loud "bang bang bang" sound again.

It seems that when Amamiya Iori's excitement or happiness reaches its limit, she is used to kicking her feet to release her emotions.

Next, Shimizu Mi chatted with Amemiya Iori for a while.

When the time was almost eleven o'clock, Shimizu began to consider ending the call.

"I don't want to. I want to continue chatting... Is that not okay?"

"..."

Qing Shuijian sighed helplessly. Although it would be fine to continue chatting for a while, he had to go to school tomorrow morning. He thought that they should both go to bed, and he hardened his heart.

"We can meet at school tomorrow, right? So let's stop here for today."

"Well then... just bear with it for today."

After that, Shimizu Ken accompanied Amemiya Iori, who was reluctant to hang up, and delayed the call again and again, and finally ended it.

"Thank you so much for today, in every way. Good night, Amamiya."

"Well, call me anytime, okay? Good night, see you...啾～"

Just like that, the phone call was hung up, and the last voice made Qingshuijian fantasize a lot.

Sure enough, even in the second round, he still couldn't guess what Amamiya Iori was thinking.

Lying on the bed, Qingshuijian stared at the ceiling in the dark and couldn't help but start thinking about what he should do next. However, he still couldn't resist the sleepiness and soon fell asleep.
