Chapter 14

The only thing between me and Fujinaga was the strange chirping from the horns of birds and beasts.

Of course, the tiger in the cage had no interest in these humans and had been asleep.

Sorry, is the name wrong?Because I never thought I would say hello from there, I couldn't help but feel silent for a moment, which made Fujinaga a little doubtful.

Ah, no, huh.I'm Mukai but...

but?Fujinaga stood up with his knees on his hands, turning his whole body toward this side.

No, it means you recognize me

That's because it's the next table, there are still no ups and downs and sounds and sights that reflect likes and dislikes.

There is no way to imagine what the emotions are born in it.

Fujiyong looked at me from head to toe.

So, why is Mukai here?

Passing time

Oh, that's the same as me. It looks boring... No, Fujinaga really thinks it's boring.

Yawned gently.

It was clearly in conversation with classmates, but it did not hide it at all.

……

...For a moment, there was a subtle atmosphere, making it hard to imagine that this would be a conversation between classmates and the next table.

I'm afraid that both Fujinaga and I think so.

What to do in the future?The problems all come together on this point.

Let us be considered classmates, and this off-campus study is also part of the same group.

So at this moment, OK, then goodbye, I feel that I can't say anything.

...Ah, but if it were Fujinaga, would you leave from the other side without authorization?We must also consider whether this situation will occur.

In the end, I pushed all the annoying characters to Fujinaga, and I just kept silent there despicable and timid.

Mukai, is he alone now?However, unexpectedly, Fujinaga wanted to continue the conversation.

The intention of asking the question must be to know whether I am alone at this moment or really alone to visit the zoo.

Ah, I am also alone, answered so concisely and clearly.

Fujiyong gently turned his head.

……I also?So, I realized that I had made a mistake here.

Although it is an objective fact, it is very hasty and determined that Fujinaga is also alone.

That... no, because Fujinaga seems to be alone too... It is impossible to hide it now, so I'd just give it honestly.

Fujinaga nodded in agreement.

AhAh, indeed. She returned to the reaction of not leaving any joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

Although it's not impossible to go back once, it's very troublesome to have to go back and forth to be honest.

Then, wouldn't it be better to have a rest by the way

So that's it. Maybe I didn't expect that Fujinaga opened his eyes wide and expressed his approval.

This should be the first time I have seen her express her feelings a little.

However, the zoo is not bad occasionally. Fujinaga turned to the tiger and looked over the side. There was a breeder coming out.

Ignore the sleeping tiger cleaning in the cage, won’t you be afraid?

Where is Mukai?

Um?

The zoo, aren't you happy?

Well, it's just average.At least, it doesn't feel like a person should come.

That's it Ah Hearing my answer, suddenly Fujinaga's eyes fell down with contempt.

...There is no place to laugh at.

Just as he was thinking hard to grasp the key points, Fujinaga took a step forward.

Fujinaga passed by me and left on his own.

Sure enough, it is still Fujinaga's style.

As expected, this scene ended on its own.

Considering that I am alone and lack of sociality in my behavior, this is already very rare.

Fujinaga, who had been like this, had disappeared for a while, appeared in front of me again.

Are you a little reluctant to leave the tiger?Just thinking so.

Groups, they are together. Only this sentence was left, and Fujinaga walked forward with his back to me again.

...This is what this means?I came back specifically and told me that it was the same group.

This is, it is equivalent to saying "Come on" I have no idea why Fujinaga came back to invite me.

On the first day of transfer, I chose the isolated guy myself.

It is hard to imagine that I would take the initiative to contact me for no reason.

Or, I know that I am monitoring someone.

...No, I can't help but complain about being an impossible self.

I don’t remember any flaws revealed, and there is no chance to reveal flaws.

So, I decided to follow Fujinaga first.

In order to follow the completely distant back, I ran away.
