Chapter 113: Qingshan Li Has to Go Because Mikami Ai Is Going
"Stop rubbing it." Mikami Ai said with contempt, "I'll take you to the infirmary."
"What infirmary for a minor issue like this?" Qingshan Li didn't really want to go.
"I caused it. If I don't take you to the infirmary and you go blind because of it, I'll probably lose my appetite for two days, and my sleep will be affected too."
"Then let me ask, what degree would it take to make you feel guilty for a lifetime?" Qingshan Li was curious.
"Give up."
"Understood."
Qingshan Li knew why she had no more troubles.
The two arrived at the infirmary, and Kuze Oto stared at him for a while.
Yes, that's right. No matter how you thought about it, he came a bit too frequently — frequent enough to suspect he had ulterior motives toward the beautiful medical teacher.
But this time it really had nothing to do with him; it was an unexpected disaster.
"Every time the girl accompanying you is different." After watching for a while, Kuze Oto said.
Qingshan Li was just about to explain when Kuze Oto added, "Perhaps that's the reason you get injured so often — what happened this time?"
"When I turned around, my ponytail swept his face. Please check his eyes, Teacher." Mikami Ai explained.
Qingshan Li spoke up: "Wait."
"Sit there." Kuze Oto pointed at the stool.
At a time like this, shouldn't he be allowed to explain first that he wasn't a scumbag who changed female companions every day?
The two ladies completely ignored his wishes, doing as they pleased with Qingshan Li.
Mikami Ai watched him, Kuze Oto peeled his eyelid open, then stared at the round, large thing, observing carefully.
"Nothing serious. Rinse with saline solution."
Kuze Oto walked away, bringing back a small bottle of saline solution and medical cotton swabs.
"Tilt your head 45°."
"Which direction?" Qingshan Li asked.
"Don't move." Kuze Oto held him down, positioning him properly herself.
Just as she was about to use the saline solution, the infirmary door was suddenly pushed open.
"Teacher!" A crowd of boys and girls surged in.
Judging by the sound, the situation was urgent.
"You two find a bed, pull the curtain, you come help him." Kuze Oto handed the saline solution and cotton swabs to Mikami Ai.
The two walked to the bed by the window. Mikami Ai pulled the curtain, and when she turned to face Qingshan Li, a smile appeared on her pure, stunningly beautiful face.
Qingshan Li dodged backward, his legs hit the bed, no way to retreat further.
Mikami Ai walked over slowly.
"." Qingshan Li's lips moved.
Mikami Ai made a gesture of not hearing clearly.
". Mikami Ai. Queen." Qingshan Li said softly.
Mikami Ai gazed at him, the smile on her face hard to conceal. Her eyes shimmered, as if just washed with saline solution.
Qingshan Li turned his head 45° to the side. From outer corner to inner corner, Mikami Ai rinsed his eyes with a flowing motion, then wiped the eye sockets with cotton swabs.
Warm Sunday, Mother cleaning his ears; pattering rainy day, Ono Mika cutting his hair; Ono Mizuki wearing an apron, cooking in the kitchen.
At these moments, a warm current would flow through Qingshan Li's heart.
The saline solution was cold, but Qingshan Li's heart slowly warmed up.
"Don't blink!" Mikami Ai scolded softly.
Qingshan Li didn't blink, staring fixedly, intently, at a proximity never before experienced, gazing at Mikami Ai.
Mikami Ai was very serious, not daring to be distracted.
"Very dangerous." He said.
"So don't move!" She said.
It was noisy outside the curtain; something seemed to have happened.
"Actually I can rinse my own eyes." He said.
"Sorry." She said softly, "Eyes are precious. I shouldn't have made that kind of joke."
". You smell really good, Mikami Classmate."
Mikami Ai stopped, took out two cotton swabs, stuffed them into Qingshan Li's nostrils respectively, then continued washing his eyes.
After a while, she silently turned away, her slender shoulders trembling slightly.
"Mikami Classmate?"
"Don't speak." His nasal voice made the laughter in Mikami Ai's voice deepen, almost uncontrollable.
"The saline solution is going to flow into my mouth, really."
At this moment, the noise outside grew loud, loud enough to break through some barrier, suddenly becoming clear in the hearing of both Qingshan Li and Mikami Ai.
"They clearly did it on purpose!"
"Too hateful. The court is first-come-first-serve. They arrived late themselves, why should we give it up to them?"
"They even deliberately injured Mihara Classmate!"
"This is the infirmary. If there's a problem, go find the Class Monitor or Student Council." Kuze Oto's voice was cold.
Outside quieted down, but just by feel, one could sense the atmosphere hadn't eased.
Mikami Ai looked at Qingshan Li. Qingshan Li pointed at his own face — the salt water really was about to flow to the corner of his mouth.
After the people outside left, she said: "It seems an incident occurred. We must go stop it."
"Forget it, I'm not really Kamen Rider." Qingshan Li had already had enough of incidents.
That's right, I'm talking about the Old Gymnasium Girls' Restroom Incident!
Mikami Ai obviously also knew why he was so resistant, and couldn't help but laugh: "Although this morning was an accident, in the end nothing was accomplished, but you gained points in my book."
"Is that the 101-point scoring system where you can do whatever you want to me?"
"101 points is just the score for marriage; wanting to do whatever you want to me is a separate score — are you going or not? As a Photography Committee Member, you have this responsibility and obligation." Mikami Ai said.
"I'll go." Qingshan Li said, "But I'm only responsible for finding a teacher."
Pulling back the white bed curtain, after asking Kuze Oto about those people's class just now, the two left the Infirmary.
"Why do you care so much about these things?" Qingshan Li was Curious.
"I've told you, I have no Trouble; a life like this cannot grow, I need to temper myself."
Unlike the envy when hearing these words for the first time, Qingshan Li right now only hoped to ruthlessly temper Mikami Ai.
"What are you thinking about?" Mikami Ai suddenly asked.
"I think you're right; recently I've been tempered often, so I've grown a lot."
Mikami Ai stared at him for a while; Qingshan Li didn't look sideways, walking straight ahead.
She laughed and turned her face away.
The two arrived at the Old Gymnasium's Table Tennis Area; amid the heated training, two groups were arguing fiercely.
"We were here first!"
"That's still no reason for you to hog so many tables; just because you went to the Cafeteria first, do you have the right to eat all the food in the Cafeteria?"
"How is there no reason? Also, why did you injure Mihara-san?!"
"We already said, we can't play table tennis; the ball accidentally flew out, and we apologized to you too!"
They really started arguing.
Qingshan Li scanned around; didn't see a teacher.
The Ball Games Tournament is a whole-school activity; teachers can't oversee everything, most likely they're supervising the more dangerous Basketball, Volleyball, Baseball.
He stepped back a step, preparing to go find a teacher.
A pulling force suddenly came, dragging him back.
"Let go." Qingshan Li said to Mikami Ai.
"Stay by my side." Mikami Ai acted as if she didn't hear.
"No."
"I'm afraid I'll get hit if I go alone."
"I'm also afraid of getting hit."
"Aren't you good at fighting? Those little punks were no match for you." Mikami Ai said.
Right, he still has this kind of Character Setting.
"Why do you have to personally go up and resolve the conflict? Isn't finding a teacher more Efficient?" Qingshan Li pulled his sleeve back from her hand.
"There are teachers in School; what about outside School? I've told you, the Mikoto Family likes to use poison; in this kind of situation, even the law is useless; in the end, people still have to rely on themselves."
"Fully agree, so please rely on yourself too."
"I'm a very unreliable person," Mikami Ai took out her Mobile Phone, "one careless moment and I'll send the wrong message, and just happen to forward a Secret that can't be told."
"."
In a certain sense, this also counts as relying on herself.
The two pushed through the crowds, heading toward the eye of the storm.
"Brother~"
"Miyuki, you're here too; you look cute in Sportswear; perfect, I'll take your picture."
"Apology, Miyuki, I'm borrowing your brother first." Mikami Ai laughed and grabbed the Camera.
"Li!"
"Ono Mihana!"
"Ono Mihana, I'm borrowing your little brother first." Mikami Ai continued walking forward.
Mikami Ai, you don't have 101 points, you're not qualified to call Ono Mika 'sister', right?
