Chapter 268 The Curse of Always Being Trapped in the Sports Warehouse

After confirming that Amamiya Iori did have the idea of ​​succeeding the student council president, the two of them set off again and soon arrived at the school.

After a summer vacation, they returned to the familiar teaching building. Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori changed their shoes in front of the shoe cabinet and headed towards the classroom.

But before that, Qingshuijian saw a very interesting scene when he passed by the playground on his way to the teaching building.

"……Um?"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Shimizumi suddenly stop, Amamiya Iori turned her head in confusion. She also looked in Shimizumi's direction and stopped.

"That is—"

Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori saw - Ishikawa Shinichi and Onodera Rin.

The petite and energetic Onodera Rin can be recognized from a distance. Her cuteness has not diminished at all, but there is a bit more awe in her expression, which personally feels very fresh.

As for the guy with the flat head who can be recognized no matter how you look at him, it is undoubtedly Shinichi Ishikawa.

The two of them started dating after the school trip before the summer vacation, and after that, the two who were both baseball bats often talked to each other.

However, since Shinichi Ishikawa was facing away from Shimizu when meeting them, his expression could not be seen, but Onodera Rin responded to him with a smile on her face and looked very happy.

At this time, the two of them seemed to have finished their conversation. Onodera Rin said to Ishikawa Shinichi, "See you later," and turned and left.

When Ishikawa Shinichi turned around, Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori could see his red face.

Shinichi Ishikawa blushed, with the corners of his mouth raised, and he looked very shy, unable to hide his happiness.

At this time, Shinichi Ishikawa, who was walking towards this side, also noticed Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori.

"Ah, it's Amamiya-san. Long time no see!"

"……haven't seen you for a long time."

"Long time no see, Ishikawa-san."

Ishikawa Shinichi's voice sounded more energetic than usual.

"Ishikawa-san, you two are so affectionate even though you've only been dating for a short time?"

Because of the scene where Shinichi Ishikawa and Rin Onodera were talking just now, and Shinichi Ishikawa's shy expression, Iori Amamiya couldn't help but tease.

"We've just started dating, and we haven't reached the stage of boredom yet. For an inexperienced couple, this is only natural."

Ishikawa Shinichi scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

The so-called burnout period refers to the period in which two people feel cold or bored with their feelings for each other after dating for a period of time, and they no longer have the enthusiasm and freshness they had at the beginning.

Perhaps because Shinichi Ishikawa mentioned the word burnout period, Amamiya Iori couldn't help but imagine what her relationship with Shimizu would be like after it completely cooled down, and her expression became a little melancholy.

Impossible, impossible!
There is absolutely no possibility of any burnout between my dear and me.

After Amemiya Iori shook her head vigorously, Shimizu asked her what was wrong with some concern.

"Iori, what are you doing...?"

"No... I was just thinking, what should I do if my dear and I enter a period of boredom..."

"Amamiya-san and Miki are entering a period of burnout?"

The baseball in Shinichi Ishikawa's hand fell to the ground with a thud and rolled away.

"If Amamiya-san and Jian's relationship cools down, I really want to see it. Although I want to see it out of curiosity, it is absolutely impossible."

"If that really happens one day, the world will be destroyed."

Ishikawa Shinichi smiled innocently.

"Eh, you actually said it like that..."

"Yes, because judging from your usual relationship, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible."

From Shinichi Ishikawa's personal perspective, he seemed to really feel that such a thing could not happen, and kept nodding his head.

However, Shimizu thought about it carefully and found it difficult to imagine the relationship between him and Amamiya Iori cooling down.

If such a day really comes, it will probably be just like what Shinichi Ishikawa said, almost like the end of the world.

……

……

When the three of them returned to the classroom together, the homeroom teacher, Hoshinomiya Mizuki, came in almost right after them, and the morning meeting on the first day of school was about to begin.

Shimizu returned to his seat, and soon the morning class began, and the battle against sleepiness began.

Although I rested for a while on the train this morning, it was not enough to make up for the sleep time I lost due to my part-time job, and I still felt tired and sleepy.

Even so, Shimizu Miyabi would pinch her cheeks or thighs to stay awake and try to avoid falling asleep.

As time passed slowly, it was soon time for lunch. The rising sun made the sunlight more dazzling.

When Shimizu finished lunch and went to the toilet, he happened to see Amamiya Iori talking to a male tutor on the staircase platform.

Shimizu remembered that the young counselor seemed to be called Hamasaki. He had a shaved head and seemed to be the coach of Shinichi Ishikawa's baseball team.

"Amamiya-san, I heard that you and Shimizu-san have been getting very close recently. Is this true?"

"What's the problem with this?"

Amemiya Iori was probably suddenly stopped on her way back from lunch, and it can be seen that she was very confused at the moment.

"Well... although it's a bit inappropriate to say this behind your back, some students said that they saw Shimizu-san often going to bars and other places during the summer vacation, so the teachers are very worried about you... How about you talk to the teachers?"

Shimizu Ken, who was standing behind the corner of the stairs, couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. It seemed that what Ayase Kotone said on the train this morning came true.

Although I don't know which nosy student saw me and told the teacher, there is nothing I can do about the fact that I would be considered like this if I hang out in places like bars every night.

After all, a high school student who hangs out in bars every day, with a title like this, probably no teacher would like this kind of student.

But despite this, Shimizu Mi's usual grades are still good. This is probably the reason why Mr. Hamasaki still has reservations when evaluating Shimizu Mi.

"We teachers exist to protect our students, so Amamiya-san, if you need any help or have any unspeakable secrets, please tell me."

It's not surprising that Mr. Hamasaki would think this way.

Because if an excellent student like Amamiya Iori had too close contact with students who often frequented bars, it must be due to some ulterior motives.

However, there was no hidden secret between Amemiya Iori and Shimizu Mi, which meant that Mr. Hamasaki's worries were completely wrong, that's all.

At first, Shimizu Mi was thinking about whether he should go up and say hello to Amemiya Iori and go back to the classroom together, but looking at the current situation, he decided to wait until the appropriate time to appear.

At this time, Amamiya Iori seemed to have something to say.

"Teacher Hamasaki, I think you're overthinking it. The reason I'm in contact with my dear is out of my own will. Ah, if you think that my answer was deliberately said because I was bewitched or threatened, then you are wrong."

"Amamiya-san, I..." Teacher Hamasaki was about to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Amamiya Iori.

"teacher--"

From Shimizu's angle, he couldn't see Amemiya Iori's expression at the moment, but Mr. Hamasaki didn't know what he saw and took a step back.

"As for why dear appeared in the bar, I hope you can investigate it thoroughly before discussing it, instead of just listening to other people's hearsay and slandering dear's efforts behind his back."

"Amamiya-san, what I want to say is—"

This time, Amemiya Iori did not interrupt Mr. Hamasaki, but directly made the sound of moving forward.

Although the sound of Amamiya Iori's footsteps was small, it was enough to stop Mr. Hamasaki from continuing.

However, after walking a few steps, Amamiya Iori suddenly stopped again.

"Teacher, didn't you just say that teachers exist to protect students?"

"Ah...I did say that, but what's wrong?"

"Then isn't he a student, dear? Doesn't slandering him contradict what the teacher said?"

What Amemiya Iori said must have been very cruel to Mr. Hamasaki.

However, I think the other party came to talk to Amamiya Iori about these things today not only because she is an excellent student, but also because he thinks that Amamiya Iori is likely to be the next student council president, so he doesn't want any trouble to arise.

"Although I am very unwilling, I can understand the teacher's feelings. However, based on this understanding, I will still choose to follow my heart. My dear teacher, he is a very gentle person. When I was in the abyss and needed help the most, he helped me."

"……Eh?"

"Teacher, if you are really worried about me, then thank you, but you don't have to bother me again in the future."

While Shimizu Mi was still quietly waiting for the follow-up, Amamiya Iori had already come down the stairs, and Shimizu Mi, who was leaning against the wall, was immediately discovered by her.

"Oh, honey?!"

Amemiya Iori looked at Shimizu Ken in surprise, only to realize that everything he had just said had been heard by Shimizu Ken.

"You just said a lot of shameful things."

"So my dear heard it all... But it doesn't matter, I didn't lie, I just said everything I thought."

Then, Amemiya Iori seemed to have thought of something, smiled slightly, and hugged Shimizu Mi.

Just like that, she stood on tiptoe desperately, trying to kiss Shimizumi.

Although it was behind the corner of the stairs, if Mr. Hamasaki in the corridor walked a few steps forward, he would probably see this scene.

But even so, Amemiya Iori still kissed Shimizu Mi.

……

As the originally dazzling sunlight gradually became softer and turned orange, the last physical education class this afternoon was almost over.

"worn out……"

"Thank you for your hard work, dear."

Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori are packing up the sports equipment used in physical education class.

Although boys and girls had physical education classes together outdoors, since it was Shimizu's turn to be on duty today, he naturally took charge of cleaning up after other students left school, and Amamiya Iori volunteered to help.

Being alone with the heroine in a sporting goods warehouse seemed to be a very common situation.

In many romantic comedy comics or animations, there is often a classic scene where the heroine is locked in a sporting goods warehouse together.

However, being locked out of a warehouse from the outside is not something that could happen in reality.

"Honey, if this were a comic or something, this would be the direction where you would be locked up, right?"

"That's right..."

Huh? Qing Shuijian was surprised and doubtful in his heart. For a moment, he couldn't help but wonder if he had just said what he was thinking by accident.

"Looking at your expression, dear, that means you were thinking about the same thing just now, right?"

Amemiya Iori felt happy because they were thinking of the same thing.

But after all, in this situation, I can't help but think so.

Usually, the male and female protagonists are locked up, and then by luck and coincidence one of them takes advantage of the female protagonist, or some heart-pounding, anticipatory interactions occur.

While thinking about this, Qingshuijian put all the equipment in order and put it back in place.

"Then we should probably..."

"It's time to go back" - just as Qingshui Jian was about to say this, there was a rattling sound behind him, and the door of the warehouse where they were was closed.

"……what?"

"……oops?"

Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori turned their eyes behind them at the same time.

The door that the two of them had walked in through earlier was completely closed, and the clanging sound of the lock vibrated their eardrums.

Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori were stunned by the unexpected incident and stood there in a daze.

"……what!"

At this time, Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori finally ran to the door in panic.

It's just that because the two of them were a step too slow, there was no movement on the other side of the door, and there was no response even if they shouted.

"seriously?"

"So this kind of thing really happens..."

Shimizu Mi and Amamiya Iori were just discussing the situation of being locked in a sporting goods warehouse, but just after they said that such a thing could not happen in reality, it happened immediately.

Now even Qing Shuijian couldn't help but feel distressed.

"How to do this?"

Amemiya Iori looked at Shimizu for help.

"..."

It was already some time after school and most of the students had already left school, so there probably wouldn't be anyone around.

In the entire sports warehouse, apart from the main door, there is only a small window on the wall that lets in light.

However, I don't know if this window is big enough for people to pass through...
