[Comprehensive Manga] Ann

"Lost lamb, confess your sins and pray to God."

"I haven't done anything bad."

"What happened to the wound on the face?"

"Fall down the stairs."

"Oh, really? You've fallen down the stairs five times this month, tripped over your shoelaces three times, accidentally bumped into a power pole once on the road, and the next time you can think of something like an earthquake. A reason to innovate?"

The old man in a black priest's attire sat on a chair, resting his chin with his hands, with a calm expression on his face, obviously already accustomed to the frequent incidents of teenagers.

"Stinky old man, you're so annoying!"

The teenager sitting in the confession room blushed, and then spoke loudly as if to cover up his embarrassment.

"Really, when I was a child, I followed behind me every day, and my father and father called me, how cute. Is it because I have entered puberty now?"

Fujimoto Shiro sighed, and then said regretfully.

"I've grown up! How can I describe it as cute!"

Okumura Rin spoke violently, scratching his hair vigorously with one hand, but he seemed a little fortunate that he was sitting in the confession room, and Fujimoto Shiro outside couldn't see his blushing expression now.

"Hey, our little Okumura Rin has finally grown up."

Fujimoto Shiro spoke slowly, and it was easy to hear the meaning of ridicule in his words.

"Now that you've grown up, do you have a little girlfriend now?"

Shiro Fujimoto spoke casually, thinking that his son sitting in the confession room should hastily refute himself again, but the strange thing is——there was silence.

Usually, not speaking means—by default, right?

Rin Okumura, by default, has a little girlfriend?

"You kid! How dare you secretly find a little girlfriend in a little corner that Dad doesn't know about!"

Fujimoto Shiro stood up quickly, then ran into the confession room, and then locked Okumura's neck with his arms, roaring with shock and anger.

"No, no... let me go, you old man!"

Okumura, who was strangled by his arms, struggled hard, making intermittent sounds from his throat.What's more, what is a small corner that Dad doesn't know!Does such a wonderful place really exist?

"Tell me, who is the other party, where did you meet, and where has it progressed?"

Shiro Fujimoto let go of Rin Okumura, then pushed his glasses, showing a deep and serious expression.

"This... this kind of thing, don't worry about it."

Okumura, who was sitting on the floor, froze for a moment, then turned his head away, his ears were a little red, and his eyes were wandering as he spoke.

"Oh, really? From your expression, you can tell that you must like other girls, but you don't know how to do it, right? Don't you really need your father to give you some advice on emotional counseling? Dad, I don't prohibit it." Puppy love, after all, youth needs the irrigation and nourishment of love!"

Fujimoto Shiro said with a hearty smile, looking at the silent Okumura Rin, he knew he must be right.This kid really inherited his romantic and unrestrained qualities, but I'm really curious about what the girl this brat likes looks like. It seems that I'm going to visit Rin Okumura's school recently.

In other words, this kid's aesthetics should be fine, right?This is a question worth exploring.

"...I don't need you to care about it!"

With a blushing face, Okumura hurriedly stood up from the ground, and hurriedly walked towards the room with his pockets in his pockets.

"Oh, I'm so old, even Lin has already started his first love."

Seeing the back of Okumura leaving, Fujimoto Shiro laughed heartily a few times, and Okumura's pace became faster.

"Hmm, I just heard the conversation between my brother and my father."

Before he entered the room, he saw his younger brother, Yukio Okumura, standing at the door of the room and looking at him with a smile. Although he was a little shorter than himself, he looked much calmer than him, and he was more stable than him, regardless of his grades or other factors. All of them seem to be more than one grade better than themselves.

"Ah, I heard that."

Okumura was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with some entanglement. Because it was his younger brother, Okumura admitted this time that he was not as awkward as before.

"Is that girl beautiful?"

Okumura Yukio followed Okumura Rin's footsteps into the room and looked at Okumura Rin curiously.

"...Well, it's beautiful."

Okumura Rin sat on the table, recalling the appearance of Masato Ezaki in his mind, and then said it.

"Sure enough, it's still very strange. My brother actually has a girl he likes?"

Okumura Yukio looked at Okumura Rin and burst out laughing, this is really a strange thing.I remember that Okumura Rin said before that girls are usually chattery and cry when they encounter troubles. It is better to provoke as little as possible, but now he even said that he liked a girl and praised her for being beautiful.

"Tch, what's so funny."

Okumura Rin looked at the smiling Okumura Yukio, rubbed his messy hair with his hands, and his face turned red again.

"Is there any particular reason?"

Okumura Yukio looked at Okumura Rin curiously, thinking that the girl that his brother likes must be different from ordinary people. For some reason, a strong muscular female man suddenly appeared in his mind... How is this possible!

"Yeah, there's no reason, it's just..."

Rin Okumura raised his head, trying to come up with some suitable reasons, but no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't come up with any special reasons, as if he fell in love for no reason.

In fact, he didn't pay much attention to Masato Ezaki at the beginning, he didn't even know her name, but she was just a classmate in the class, and she was always calm when sitting next to her. The total dialogue is estimated to be no more than three sentences, although sometimes it is annoying to have a group of chattering girls around her.

Another time, on the way to school, he saw a few senior boys from an unknown school surrounding Ezaki Masato by the wall, as if they were bullying her.

fight.

This word seems to always surround Okumura Lin. I don’t know why even if he promised the stinky old man not to fight, something always happened around him, and then the familiar violence happened involuntarily.

And then—the devil.

Yes, after a fight, those people always say that about themselves, like a devil.

"Why, how can there be so much strength...Evil, devil...go away!"

Knocked down to the ground by a punch, the senior boy who seemed to be able to hear the sound of his own bones breaking raised his head to look at Rin Okumura with difficulty. With a terrified expression on his face, he moved his body back tremblingly.

Finally, screaming, he escaped with the three other boys who were also beaten to the ground.

"cut."

Rin Okumura was wiping his nosebleeds at the time, and was punched in the face by a man in the middle at the beginning. Looking at the group of boys fleeing in a hurry, Rin Okumura was a little angry but fought again. This time, he should not be beaten Let's see it again, you smelly old man.

However, Okumura's movements stopped suddenly, and then he remembered that the girl was still standing there, she must have been frightened, maybe she was so frightened that she stood there and cried, or she turned around and ran away crying up.

Anyway, it wasn't the first time he was treated as a demon, and he was used to it.

But the strange thing is that when he turned around, he didn't see any frightened expression on the girl's face.

Instead, he just stood there indifferently, and then - played with his mobile phone.

Seeing herself turn around, the girl put her phone back in her bag, said thank you, and left.

And his expression must be very dull, he stood there blankly watching the back of the girl leaving, as if he didn't expect the girl to leave so indifferently, there was no... normal girl's reaction at all.Instead, when he walked a dozen steps, he turned around and told himself that he would be late if he didn't walk quickly.

It didn't - it was regarded as a demon.

Probably this kind of cognition made me feel a little happy, and then I couldn't help but pay more attention to this girl.

Her name is Ezaki Masato, which doesn't look like a girl's name at all;

She likes to paint her fingernails and changes the color every week;

Every time she goes to school, she passes by a playground and stops to take a look;

When she was in class, she always drew on paper, but every time she drew a variety of landscapes;

She only eats instant noodles every time at noon, and she still eats them dry;

There are always many girls who like to surround her, even though she doesn't speak much...

I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but suddenly from that day on, it seemed as if I found a bright spot in the darkness, and then followed it involuntarily, until I found more and more fragments of light appearing in front of my eyes.

In the line of sight, it seems that I can't move away from her gradually. Every time she finds her sight, she will move away uncomfortably, her heart beats faster, her face feels a little hot, and the face of that Masato Ezaki keeps appearing in her mind. Even if you don't smile, you think it's beautiful.

From the ignorant heart seems to be slowly growing a kind of light feelings - probably like it.

So, I fell in love with it.

But for someone like me, I guess even things like liking people can make a mess.

"elder brother?"

Okumura Yukio looked at Okumura Rin who didn't answer his question all the time, as if he was caught in his own thinking, reached out and patted Okumura Rin on the shoulder.

"Uh, huh? Yukio, what, what's the matter?"

Rin Okumura reacted suddenly, and then seeing Yukio Okumura's somewhat dissatisfied expression, Rin Okumura laughed, as if he couldn't remember what Yukio Okumura said to him just now.

"Hey, brother, have you ever thought about confessing?"

Okumura Yukio sighed, and didn't expect to get the answer he wanted to know from Okumura Lin's mouth, but it's the first time that my brother likes a girl, so he has to give it a little push?

"Huh!? Confession?...No, no, absolutely not."

Okumura yelled in surprise, then immediately waved his hands and shook his head, his face flushed.

"Since you dare not say it, how about... a love letter?"

Seeing Okumura's exaggerated reaction, Okumura Yukio laughed.

"Love, love letter?"

Okumura paused, staring blankly at his smiling brother.

then--

Now, Rin Okumura was walking slowly with a love letter in his arms, all the way to the door of Masato Ezaki's house.Knowing where Masato Ezaki's home is, in fact, he accidentally discovered that Masato Ezaki's way home was on the same path as himself, and then accidentally followed a few more steps, so he accidentally found out.

"Ah! Damn it, in the end, in the end, do you want to give it or not!"

Rin Okumura just stood in front of the mailbox like this, his face was a little red, his brows were furrowed deeply but he had a very tangled expression, Rin Okumura took out a white envelope from his schoolbag with trembling hands, it was still last night, It was written under the guidance and revision of Yukio Okumura.Really!How could he write such a thing!

Rin Okumura pinched the envelope tightly, but Rin Okumura let go of the creases on the envelope anxiously, trying to smooth it out in a hurry, with a nervous expression on his face.

"Forget it! If, if you don't give it, you will definitely be laughed at by the smelly old man and Xuenan!"

Recalling this morning, everyone in the monastery was looking at me and giggling, and some people wished myself a successful confession, and then I remembered that I left the love letter on the table in the morning and forgot to clean it up.There is also the stinky old man who laughed and said that he has grown up and has the demeanor of his past, and then let himself wear a new shirt, but kicked it out impatiently.

Okumura made up his mind, blushed around his ears, quickly handed the envelope to the mailbox, then turned around quickly with his fists clenched, took a deep breath, and walked quickly towards the monastery.

No matter, don't think about it, just leave it like this, put it in anyway!

"Well, you, are you a real person's classmate?"

"……um, yes."

Suddenly a person passed by, and then the voice of that person interrupted his pace. Looking back, it was a woman in her early forties, holding a watering can in her hand, her brown hair was coiled up, and there was a gentle look on her face. smile.

"Didn't you come to find the real person? Why don't you go in and see him."

"...I, I, I won't go in."

"So, you two are good friends?"

"Uh, probably, maybe." Okumura Rin rubbed his hair in embarrassment, then nodded.

"That's good. That kid finally made friends with a boy. I'm really worried. The real kid, for some reason, has only been in contact with girls since that day, playing with girls, going shopping and so on. Ah, by the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Rin Okumura."

"Rin Okumura, can Auntie ask you something?"

"Okay, what?" Okumura looked at the elder's sincere eyes, but couldn't say anything to refuse, so he could only nod.

"Can you often take real people to play basketball, play video games, watch some fighting movies and so on, even if it's a fight, it's fine, as long as you don't get hurt."

"..." Rin Okumura stood there silently, looking at the real person's neighbor aunt in surprise, but he couldn't understand what the aunt was talking about.Why do you want to ask him to let Masato Ezaki do these boys' things.

"The real person is also a poor child. He was originally a good boy, but he was stimulated by his parents' car accident..."

"Wait! What are you talking about!? Man, man, boy?"

Rin Okumura heard something immediately, his eyes widened, and he looked at the woman in disbelief.

"Aren't you good friends? You don't know this?"

"Know what?" Rin Okumura swallowed, looking at the woman with eyes almost terrified, but the bad premonition in his heart was getting bigger and bigger.

"Master Ezaki, he's a boy."

A cherry blossom falls quietly from the top of the head, commemorating Okumura Rin's first love that has sprouted but failed to bloom.

The author has something to say:
