Inaba Tsukiyo didn't intend to hide either, she was no longer in the original state of having no identity, and it didn't matter if she was discovered.

She went on singing there, not caring if she was seen or not.

The other party quickly climbed the nine flights of stairs. When the man came to the botanical garden on the top of the building panting, he saw a girl in a plain white dress holding a broom and singing a beautiful song under the sunshine. melody.

Even though the girl looked so petite, the boy was immersed in this wonderful singing, as if even the depression of being ostracized recently disappeared.

He didn't immediately disturb the girl's singing. The boy stood quietly at the stairs, as the only audience here, watching the girl's performance.

Soon, the performance was over, Inaba Tsukiya trimmed her hair, turned to look in the direction of the stairs, and smiled.

"It's not polite to keep looking at girls, classmate. If you're not a peeping tom, it's better to speak up."

"Eh? Ha! Ah! Yes... I'm sorry! This lady! Well, because your singing voice is so beautiful. So I'm a little intoxicated, I'm sorry."

The boy scratched his head shyly. He also realized that his behavior just now was very rude, and it was still towards a strange girl, so it shouldn't be.

"Hehe~ Although I am very happy with your praise, this is not a place where students should come. Except for the ninth floor, the other floors are open to students, but the botanical garden on the top of the building is not open to students except for some people. Oh."

This is a lie, no matter who is eligible to come here, it's just that she lied to prevent this boy from coming here again.

"I see, I know."

The boy scratched his head, suddenly thought of something, nodded to Inaba Tsukiyo, and smiled.

"I am a student entering this year, Kazuya Kujo from Neon, please give me your advice."

"Kazuya Kujo... Hehehe~ I'm an Oriental. I'm Inaba Tsukiya, please give me your advice."

Inaba Tsukiyo opened his eyes slightly, looking at Kujo Kazuya in front of him, a plan gradually formed in his heart.

Chapter 018: Kazuya Kujo

"Eh? Inaba Tsukiyo? Are you a neon person too?"

Kazuya Kujo looked at Tsukiyo Inaba with some excitement, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, he didn't expect this kind of plot to happen to him.

Kazuya Kujo was born in a military family, and his family conditions were not bad, but the pressure made him a little breathless, so he came to this place far away from the neon lights, wanting to escape from that home.

It's just that the students in this school are not as friendly as expected, and all the students avoid him. At first he thought it was just these students who were xenophobic, but later he finally learned about the rumor about the [Black Death Visiting in Spring].

Because this rumor made all the students think that he was a symbol of the curse, basically everyone avoided him. Although no bullying happened, he still felt very helpless in this situation.

Originally, I just planned to come here to look up information, but I didn't expect to be able to meet someone from the same country as me here, which is really lucky.

"It can't be counted. It's just that my mother is a foreigner, and my father is a Neon person. I am a mixed race, so I know a little Japanese."

This sentence was not spoken in French, but in the Japanese that Kujo Kazuya was familiar with, and it was through this language that he believed that Inaba Tsukiya was like him, a neon person.

As for mixed blood, Kujo Kazuya also accepted it. After all, that beautiful silver hair is not a common phenomenon in Neon. Except for a very small number of people, most of them have black hair.

When he thought that the other party was from the same country as himself, Kazuya Kujo's spirit gradually relaxed, and the feeling of being rejected by others during this period of time could not help but improve a lot.

【Um?What is she doing on a moonlit night? 】

Victoria, who was hiding in the cabinet and waiting for Inaba Tsukiyo to drive Kazuya Kujo away, was a little strange.

In the past, when someone came over, she was the one who hid. Inaba Tsukiya tried to drive people away. This was already a routine. She felt that Inaba Tsukiya would chase people away as usual this time. Why is the situation different this time?

Also, what Inaba Tsukiyo said just now was not French?How is this going?

Victoria quietly opened a gap in the cabinet, and this small gap happened to be able to see the picture of Tsukiyo Inaba and Kazuya Kujo.

I saw Kazuya Kujo leaning on the guardrail of the stairs, and Tsukiya Inaba standing there holding a broom, listening to what Kazuya Kujo said with a smile.

Because neither of them spoke French, Victoria couldn't understand what they were talking about, but the only thing she could be sure of was that they had a good chat.

【what is this?Even though I was still hiding here, I actually went to chat with this boy, and I had such a good chat.What does that mean? 】

Seeing the scene of Kazuya Kujo talking with Tsukiyo Inaba, Victoria couldn't help feeling irritated. She puffed her cheeks and looked at the two with dissatisfaction, but she didn't rush out, but hid here to check the situation .

As long as there is something wrong, she will rush out immediately!As for what's wrong?Even she couldn't tell.

"Hey~ Are you rejected by your classmates because of your black hair and black pupils? It's really a disaster. But it's just that the students believe those rumors. As long as there is no disaster around you, the so-called god of death will not attack you. Self-destruct."

"It would be great if this is the case. The situation is not that bad now. Basically, the students who reject me are all students, and teachers and other staff are not in this situation."

Kazuya Kujo scratched his head helplessly. The alienation from his classmates made him somewhat uncomfortable. Fortunately, the help of the teacher made him feel a lot more comfortable.

In addition, he had just come to this school not long ago, if he flinched here, he would definitely be ridiculed by his brothers when he went back, and he didn't want this kind of thing to happen.

"Actually, you don't need to pay too much attention to those students, Mr. Jiucheng. I think the most important thing you need to do now is to change a certain idea of ​​yours. It's the [third son of an imperial soldier] you mentioned when you introduced yourself. Change your mind."

"Eh? Is there something wrong with this statement? I really am..."

"No, you didn't understand what I meant, Mr. Jiucheng. I don't mean that there is any problem with your identity. To be honest, I don't know what kind of identity you have in Nihong. Today is me and you first meeting."

Before today, Inaba Tsukiyo had no contact with Kujo Kazuya at all. This guy only came to this academy this spring to study, and the two had no contact at all.

So Inaba Tsukiya didn't know the identity of Kazuya Kujo at all, and he didn't know much about his "third son of the imperial soldier".

"Then you mean..."

"What I mean is that your current thinking is limited to the concept of [the third son of an imperial soldier]. If you don't have this concept, who do you think you are? Jiu Cheng-kun."

"...I, I don't know. I can only be regarded as a mortal at best."

Kazuya Kujo said with some uncertainty, what else could he be without this identity?He had never thought about this question.

He looked at his hands in confusion, never expecting that just abandoning this concept would give him such great confusion.

"Mortal...mortal? How many people in this world are not mortal? Mr. Jiucheng."

Inaba Tsukiyo chuckled a few times, and after Kujo Kazuya's attention returned to her, she spoke again.

"Think about it, Mr. Jiucheng. Those students who regard you as a black death are just because of your black hair and eyes, so they stubbornly think that you are an existence that brings disaster. Now you have to do more than just avoid, Instead, face up to these gazes and use your own actions to prove to those people that you are not a god of death. You are Kazuya Kujo, a man from a distant eastern country."

"Don't think about your messy identities, such things as [the third son of an imperial soldier]. Not many people in this country understand what this is. You just need to be yourself, you know?"

"....I see."

The confusion in Kazuya Kujo's eyes gradually disappeared. At this time, she seemed to have figured out something clearly, and she became more confident.

"Thank you, Ms. Inaba. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would still be thinking about some messy things?"

"It's just that you care too much about those people's opinions. As long as you jump out of it and look at those classmates who are talking about you, you will think that they are just teenagers. It's no big deal."

Rather, only children and superstitious adults would believe such strange rumors. Kazuya Kujo cared too much about the relationship with other people, so it became like this.

"Okay. It's been long enough, now please leave here, don't bother me to clean up, Jiu Cheng-kun. And it's about time for you to go back to the dormitory, otherwise the students may have some strange rumors Oh."

Noticing the depressing atmosphere constantly emanating from the cabinet, Inaba Tsukiya knew it was time to drive Kazuya Kujo away, and immediately issued an order to evict the guest.

"Huh? Ah, um, okay. I'm leaving now."

Looking at the broom in Inaba Tsukiya's hand, Kazuya Kujo, who thought she was working, was about to leave here when his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"What? Is there anything else? Jiucheng-kun."

"No, that. I just wanted to ask, can I still come here?"

Kazuya Kujo said with some embarrassment, maybe because of the same reason as a neon person, Kazuya Kujo wanted to come to her to understand.

It seems that his goal has been achieved, Inaba Tsukiyo nodded slightly, and shook his head under Kujo Kazuya's expectant gaze.

"This is not a place where students should come, Jiucheng-kun. And there is a limit to acting like a baby, you are a boy. If you rely too much on girls, it will be a bit ugly."

"Hold... sorry, I see."

Kujo Kazuya lowered his head a little disappointed, and he also realized that what he did was disturbing others too much.

"Unless there is something troublesome or something that needs my help, please don't come to this place, Mr. Jiucheng. Otherwise, if the school staff finds out, I can't intercede with you."

With his back to Kazuya Kujo, Inaba Tsukiya suddenly spoke when the other party turned around and was about to leave.

"Miss Inaba..."

"Don't be too happy, sometimes I want you to do something for me. I can't leave school casually, so when you leave school, you have to bring something back for me, you know?"

"Well! Put it on me."

It was just running errands, Kazuya Kujo didn't think it was too much, and even felt a little bit profitable.

After Kujo Kazuya left in satisfaction, Inaba Tsukiyo smiled slightly. Either the child didn't understand the situation, or he was that good old man, or he was really stupid.

Didn't you notice that her real purpose is to make her a tool person?Forget it, anyway, she just asked this guy to do some simple things, not to let him commit crimes, it doesn't matter.

Except...she has a big problem to deal with right now.

"Moon~night~"

Like a voice coming from the depths of hell, Inaba Tsukiya still felt himself shivering from the cold even though the sun was shining on his body.

After Kazuya Kujo left the botanical garden, Victoria had already walked out of the cabinet.

She moved her tingling limbs a little, and came behind Inaba Tsukiyo with a smile on her face, her lovely voice tinged with chills.

"Just now... you seemed very happy. Would you like to have a good chat with that boy?"

"..."

It seems that it takes some time to coax this princess of her own.

Chapter 019: Pull the Hook

"What's the matter? Are you jealous? Do you feel unhappy when you see me chatting with boys?"

Facing Victoria's bulging cheeks, Inaba Tsukiyo came to her with a smile and reached out to hold her hand, but she avoided it.

"Hmph! Don't touch me! You actually let me stay inside for such a long time, you seemed very happy just now?"

"That boy is also from Japan. The language I communicated with him just now is Japanese. You shouldn't understand it?"

Victoria is good at many languages, but it is not clear whether there is Japanese in these languages. The wisdom she shows is much stronger than that of a mortal.

"You don't think I'm interested in that boy, do you? Really, just think about those messy things. I can't even see what he looks like. How could such a thing happen? Don't you think it's love at first sight? Is a corny plot going to happen to me?"

Noticing that Victoria might be jealous, Inaba Tsukiya couldn't help teasing, she reached out and stroked Victoria's immature cheeks, and when the other party was about to get angry, Inaba Tsukiya slightly opened his eyes and showed a very forced smile.

"If...if I could, I'd really like to sacrifice something of myself to get back a few minutes or even a few seconds of vision. Then I can get a good look at you, Victoria."
