Chapter 486

He was confident that Yukinoshita Yukino would call him to further confirm his identity.

Everything was as he expected and arranged; next, he just needed to act normally to dispel the girl's final doubts.

"..."

Lin Ye looked at the girl who was just staring at him and continued, "You can trust me; I want to help you."

"There is someone else here."

Lin Ye looked puzzled, "Someone else? No way!"

He looked around, but didn't find anything.

"An invisible person."

"..."

Lin Ye walked quickly to the girl's side, "Why do you think so? Did he attack you?"

He became nervous.

Yukinoshita Yukino briefly recounted everything, from the Service Department classroom door suddenly opening, to her hand being poked, and then to the suddenly ringing phone vibration sound.

Only, she didn't say that the moment the phone vibrated was exactly when she sent the message to Lin Ye.

"An invisible person? Why does it sound so much like a ghost!"

"..." This time it was Yukinoshita Yukino's turn to be stunned.

A ghost?

Yukinoshita Yukino remembered some information she found on the internet.

Half-true and half-false, but since she had encountered such an abnormal thing herself, it wasn't impossible that ghosts really existed in this world.

"If it were a ghost, it wouldn't just poke my hand,"

if a ghost was looking for her, it must have a purpose; generally speaking, shouldn't it kill her?

Otherwise, why look for her? It couldn't be just to deliberately scare her, right!

"That's true,"

Lin Ye agreed, "But if it were a person, if I had such a magical ability to become transparent and disappear, I definitely wouldn't just poke your hand, Yukino."

Yukinoshita thought about it; compared to the hand, other parts are clearly more attractive, and even...

"You really are much bolder and more lecherous."

The black-haired girl looked up and said, her words revealing a trace of dissatisfaction.

The humiliation and shame caused by being seen through and having her intimate clothing taken away were things she could never forget in her life.

"This... accident, accident, it really was an accident, wait,"

Lin Ye suddenly thought of something and immediately stared at the girl, "Yukinoshita, you don't suspect me, do you!"

"..."

Yukinoshita Yukino was astonished, and even more at a loss, because she hadn't expected Lin Ye to speak so bluntly.

Lin Ye showed a flash of anger, but quickly became disappointed and regretful, "Also, it's not without reason that you suspect me because of the unpleasant things before,"

his expression became more and more uncomfortable, "But do I have any need to do that to you?"

Facing the girl's gaze, Lin Ye continued, "We are already in contact and communicating; I could openly ask you to hold hands, so why would I sneakily poke your hand."

Seems... like... Lin Ye has no need for this at all.

"I said no, do you believe me?"

Lin Ye, standing in front of the girl, placed his hands on her shoulders, looking down and meeting her gaze,

Yukinoshita didn't answer for a long time, and a touch of sadness appeared on Lin Ye,

"Since you don't believe me, just assume it was me! That way you'll feel better; do you want to call the police to catch me, beat me to get revenge, or..."

"Really... wasn't it you?"

"You really do suspect me."

One sentence made Yukinoshita Yukino's heart tremble; a kind of unspeakable guilt was constantly spreading.

"Sorry, I, I just..."

"Understand,"

but the next sentence made Yukinoshita astonished,

"But I can't completely accept it."

Lin Ye looked at her with a slightly sorrowful expression, "I believe what you said; this wouldn't be your illusion, I will help you find him; if he dares to scare you, I won't let him off, but... forget it, I'll go back to the classroom first, he shouldn't be here anymore."

After finishing,

Lin Ye turned and walked toward the classroom door.

But before he had walked three steps, the black-haired girl followed and blocked Lin Ye's path,

at this time, the girl stared at Lin Ye's lonely expression, and a sharp pain was spreading in her heart.

"Lin Ye, I just..."

Yukinoshita Yukino's cold voice revealed a touch of anxiety.

"No need to say more."

But the girl didn't move an inch, staring tightly, her eyes revealing a sense of guilt for her suspicious behavior.

"It poked your hand, right!"

"Mm."

"I have a method, but you might not be very willing."

"What method?"

Lin Ye reached out his hand, "You know, what will happen if you touch my hand."

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned.

She knew, and she had experienced it even more.

"Forget it, this method isn't suitable either."

Lin Ye withdrew his hand, but it stimulated the girl, making her step forward twice, purse her lips, muster her courage, and hold Lin Ye's hand.

The moment they touched,

Yukinoshita Yukino only felt a chill.

She knew what had happened.

In a flash of lightning, Yukinoshita Yukino snatched the object from Lin Ye's left hand.

"It wasn't you."

"Mm, believe me now."

"I apologize to you for my suspicious behavior, I hope you can accept it."

"I accept it."

Lin Ye answered solemnly,

his goal had been achieved, but his mood was inexplicably complex.

"I'll treat you to a meal as an apology."

"A date?"

"No,"

she denied it flatly, "but it can be considered one of the ways for me to have contact and communicate."

"Okay, Yukinoshita, you treat me to a meal, I have no reason to refuse."

The matter was settled.

Yukinoshita Yukino temporarily set aside her suspicion of Lin Ye.

All the evidence and information so far indicated that it had nothing to do with Lin Ye; she had suspected the wrong person.

The greatest possibility was that the phone vibration at that moment was just a coincidence, happening to hit the moment she sent the help message.

But could there really be such a coincidence in this world? However, thinking of Isshiki Iroha and Lin Ye's words, she felt that this was probably really just a coincidence!

"If he dares to appear again,"

if 'he' appeared again, she would definitely make 'him' reveal his true form.

In her heart,

Yukinoshita Yukino silently made a decision.

Thinking that there was a transparent, invisible existence beside her, watching her, staring at her, Yukinoshita Yukino felt a chill down her back, and her heart felt creepy.
