I am only one world away from Yukinoshita.

“Yes,” Kiyoyori realized his tone was a bit harsh, “I’m sorry, teacher.”

"Poetry Feather".

"Huh?"

“I already told you, call me Shiyu.”

Kiyoshi was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm sorry, Shiwa-senpai."

Kasumigaoka turned around and hummed softly, "Come with me to the bookstore."

Kiyoshi was about to refuse.

"Come with me and I'll forgive your rudeness earlier."

Kasumigaoka turned her head and glanced at Kiyoyori with an arrogant air.

It seems we won't find the results we're looking for here either.

"I'd be happy to oblige."

..................................................................

Kasumigaoka Utaha is one of the two goddesses of Toyonosaki Academy. She has a tall and curvaceous figure, and her legs covered in black stockings are particularly eye-catching. Her long hair flows with her movements, and her aloof temperament keeps all those who want to flirt with her away. Even when she is reading a book while walking, she can still walk with the demeanor of a supermodel.

Kiyoshi, walking beside her, thus became the focus of everyone's attention.

Kiyoyori was practically led out of the school hand in hand by Kasumigaoka the entire time. She could hear the students whispering among themselves, which were mostly about their longing for Kasumigaoka or their jealousy of Kiyoyori.

Kasumigaoka seemed completely unaffected, continuing to walk through the campus as if nothing had happened, and she didn't let go of Kiyoyori's hand until she stepped out of the school gate.

"Um, teacher..."

I was glared at fiercely.

"Senior Shiyu..."

"Is there something you need, Shimizu-kun?"

Was it a deliberate mispronunciation? Probably...

"What is Utaha-senpai's schedule?"

Knowing he had upset the other party, Qinglai carefully chose his words, afraid that the other party would find a point to attack.

"Does Shimizu-kun suffer from 'seven-second memory syndrome'? Or is it that your brain, which is as small as a goldfish, simply can't hold anything other than a first-year girl with 'snow' in her name?" Kasumigaoka spoke very quickly. She walked in front of Kiyoyori, her leather shoes stomping loudly, each stomp sounding like a countdown to life being struck on Kiyoyori's heart.

Qinglai dared not speak.

Kasumigaoka suddenly stopped and turned around, and Kiyori, whose mind was wandering, bumped into him.

"Shimizu-kun seems so distracted, could it be that you're still thinking about that girl?" Kasumigaoka's pomegranate-red eyes stared at Kiyoyori as if he were a dead man.

Although he was indeed thinking about that person, Kiyoshi shook his head against his will due to his surging survival instinct.

Kiyoyori's actions earned him a kind smile from Kasumigaoka.

Kasumigaoka tossed her hair across Kiyoyori's face and walked straight into the bookstore. The air still carried the scent of Kiyoyori's shampoo, but Kiyoyori, his face covered in hair, pulled a strand of black hair from between his lips with a complicated expression.

Senior Shiyu is the one who suffered from hair loss at such a young age.

Kiyotomi entered the bookstore, and a strangely punctuated female voice came from the sensor. She glanced at the sign and headed towards the light novel section. The bookshelves were filled with all sorts of light novels, some placed in the most prominent positions, while others could only stay in inconspicuous corners. Kiyotomi picked up a very familiar book from the bookshelf marked "Bestseller" - "Love Metronome".

This book was once placed in the most inconspicuous corner of the bookstore, but now it is placed in the most eye-catching area.

Kasumigaoka is not here.

Kiyotori quickly spotted Kasumigaoka, who was standing in front of a bookshelf, quietly reading a novel. Kiyotori didn't disturb him, but instead looked at the new books in the section.

During this time, she has been troubled by memories and that person, and has no time to focus on new works. Perhaps, immersing herself in another world can help her forget the troubles in this world.

Kiyoshi picked up a novel at random. The cover featured a girl with long black hair, wearing a somewhat familiar school uniform, with two small red bows hidden in her long black hair.

Kiyoshi's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.

Open it.

Open it!

Do not!

Do not open!

It felt as if two little people were battling inside Kiyoyori's mind. Kiyoyori's hands trembled as she opened the novel, flipping through the pages rapidly, as if searching for something.

[Service Department.]

Kiyoshi took a deep breath and then exhaled with a trembling voice.

[Yukikinoshita... Yukino...]

Upon seeing this name, Kiyoyori's eyes instantly blurred with tears.

Ah...it's her...

I remember now, I remember now, your name.

Your name is Yukino Yukinoshita, you are Yukino Yukinoshita.

Yukinoshita Yukino! Yukinoshita Yukino! Yukinoshita Yukino!

Kiyoshi gripped the pages tightly, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Yukinoshita... Yukino...

I remember you, but why—

Ah, I can't stop crying.

Tears welled up in Qinglai's eyes, dripping onto the paper, spreading, drying, and blurring her vision. She could no longer see her name or remember her face.

"Shimizu-kun?"

Kasumigaoka, who was engrossed in his book, heard a sudden sob coming from inside the bookstore.

It was that girl; she laughed and then cried, cried and then laughed again.

"Kiyori-kun? Kiyori-kun? What's wrong?"

Kasumigaoka quickly stepped forward, helplessly wiping away the girl's tears with his hand, but he couldn't find the reason for her crying.

"Shiyu...senpai..."

Kiyoshi sobbed and called her name.

"I'm here, I'm here..."

Kasumigaoka placed Kiyori's head on her neck and soothingly stroked her black hair.

"I remember now, I remember now..."

"Her name!"

"Yukikinoshita, Yukino..."

original,

Between you and me,

They were separated by an entire world.

Chapter 49 The First Snow After Parting with Her

"Qinglai! Is the room cleaned?"

Kiyoshi picked up a stack of drawing paper, all of which were portraits of a girl she had no recollection of. She flipped through the paper curiously, but there were no markings except for the word "snow" written by herself.

When was this drawn?

"Chiang Lai!"

"immediately!"

Kiyoshi called out to the door, casually tucked the papers into his sketchbook, and picked up the dumpling at his feet.

"It's not hair removal season, so why is my room full of your hair?"

As Kiyotori walked, she bent down to pick up clumps of fur from the ground. The furball on her shoulder, however, was restless and struggled to get off Kiyotori.

"What are you doing? Ouch—"

Caught off guard, Qinglai was hooked by Tuanzi's claws. He released the wretched little devil in pain, and Tuanzi used Qinglai's shoulder to leap onto the desk. It rummaged through the books on the bookshelf and pulled out several books.

"Can't you be a little more obedient..." Kiyotaka stepped forward and pressed the spot where the claw had just scratched him.

The desk I had just tidied up was now a mess again.

Kiyoshi angrily grabbed the little dumpling's tail and shook it, but the little guy surprisingly didn't resist. Instead, he focused on opening his sketchbook and finding the drawing paper that had been stuck inside.

It patted the portrait with its little cushion and called out to Qinglai in a babyish voice.

"So, you like her?"
