Chapter 312 The Endo Family

"Endo...Endo..."

In the early morning, at the door of Endo's house.

Shimada pressed the doorbell and called out to Endo inside the house.

Click!

Following Shimada's shout, the closed door of Endo's house was opened, revealing a pale middle-aged female face.

"Mama Endo."

Seeing the figure appearing in the house, Shimada quickly restrained his voice and said to the woman.

"So it's Shimada."

In the crack of the door, Mama Endo turned her gaze to Shimada at the door, and the expression on her face paused before replying.

"Are you here to go to school with Endo?"

"In this case, we may have to wait a little longer, Endo is still eating inside."

"go to school?"

Hearing Mama Endo's words, Shimada couldn't help showing a puzzled expression.

"However, the school has already sent a notice that the school will be closed for a week from today, and the specific start time will be notified later. Didn't you receive the notice, Mama Endo?"

"is it?"

"Maybe I was busy preparing breakfast in the morning, so I missed the call from the school."

Upon hearing the news of the closure of the school from Shimada's mouth, Endo's mother made a thoughtful expression on her face, and then said with a dissatisfied expression: "Really, what happened to Horikawa High School during this period of time, why is it not moving?" Those who don't go to school..."

Standing at the door, Endo's mother murmured to herself for a long time before she seemed to realize it belatedly.

Leaving Shimada at the door, he said with an apologetic face, "I'm really sorry, Shimada-kun, I made you stand outside for so long, so are you here to play with Endo?"

"I……"

Opening his mouth, Shimada was about to explain the reason why he came to find Endo, but he couldn't help but stop when he got to his mouth, and finally nodded.

"Welcome, welcome, Endo is inside."

Seeing this, Endo's mother at the door pulled the corner of her mouth and showed a kind smile to Shimada, and stepped back to open the door to make room.

"So disturbing."

Nodding to Mother Endo in front of the door, Shimada walked into the house politely, changed his shoes and put them in order, then walked towards the living room.

"Endo, far..."

Coming to the living room, the first thing Shimada saw was Endo at the dining table, and Endo's father.

Endo's father is a seemingly taciturn existence, with a gloomy face, eating breakfast expressionlessly.

"Shimada, why are you here?"

Sitting on the other side of the dining table, he noticed Shimada appearing at home, but there was no surprise on Endo's face, but he still spoke calmly.

"I'll go to school with you after I finish this last bite."

"About going to school, I just heard from Shimada that Horikawa High School will be closed for a week from today, so Endo, you don't have to go to school today..."

Following Shimada back to the house, Endo's mother told Endo who was eating breakfast about the closure of the school.

"The school is closed, why is it closed again after a good time, Horikawa High School is really getting worse and worse."

Hearing the news that Horikawa High School was closed, Endo didn't wait to react.

Endo's father, who was eating opposite, put down the chopsticks in his hands angrily, and said with a cold snort.

Shimada once heard Endo mention that his father also attended Horikawa High School, so this may be the reason why he was so angry.

After finishing speaking, Endo's father's eyes fell on Shimada again, and he frowned and said: "Even if the school is closed, the studies that should be done can't be stopped, it's because of a guy like you who is fooling around, that the Our family's Endo's grades have been dropping, tell me, what are you looking for Endo for?"

From Endo's father's tone, Shimada sensed an unwelcome feeling.

This makes Shimada a little strange, it's not that he has never been to Endo's house.

When he came here before, although Endo's father didn't say anything, his attitude was not as bad as it is now.

"Dad, Shimada is here to discuss with me about studies."

And under the unkind eyes of Endo's father, Endo who was standing beside him suddenly spoke.

Swallowing the last bite of rice in the bowl, he looked at his father in front of him and explained calmly.

"Yeah, Father Endo, I'm here to ask Endo a few questions about his studies."

Staring, silently watching Endo in front of him.

Endo's father glanced back and forth between his son and Shimada, and then he seemed a little unwilling to say.

"Better so."

"My child's father, it will be late if you don't leave. Don't forget that you have to go to work today."

At this time, Endo's mother, who had been silent beside her, spoke, as if to remind Shimada to save her.

"I'm leaving."

At the reminder of Endo's mother, Endo's father left home with a reluctant expression on his face.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Shimada couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Under Endo's father's gaze, he always felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

"What's the matter, Endo, why do I feel that your father doesn't seem to like me coming over."

"do not know."

Facing Shimada's question, Endo shook his head.

"Okay, Endo, you and Shimada can go upstairs to play together, and let mom clean up the things on the table."

"Okay, now you can speak, Shimada."

Coming to the room on the second floor, Endo looked at Shimada and asked.

"It's fine, why did you come to my house suddenly?"

Walking into the room, Shimada subconsciously glanced at the direction of the bed. After confirming that there was no figure under the bed in Endo's house, Shimada seemed relieved and said: "He came to my house !"

"Him? You mean..."

Following Shimada's gaze away from the bed, Endo made a puzzled expression on his face when he heard what he said, and then suddenly said: "You mean that guy."

"Yes."

Nodding his head, he recalled that he had been lying in bed all night, staying motionless and frightened until morning.

Shimada's face paled a little.

After dawn, he almost ran out of the room at the fastest speed without any hesitation, and he didn't even have the courage to look under his bed to see if the other party was really hiding there.

"Last night, I was lying on the bed, and I accidentally saw him sneaking into the window of the room, and then hid under my bed. The whole night, I was separated from him by a bed board."

Shimada didn't even know how he survived that night. Under the fear, he didn't even have much memory about last night. All he could think about was that he was under the bed, he was under the bed...
