If I don't capture the girl, I will die

Although it didn't rain heavily, if you wanted to walk home without an umbrella in this kind of rain, there was still a very high chance that you would catch a cold.

Ji Qi and Yukinoshita were forced to take shelter from the rain under the eaves of a store that was either closed or bankrupt.

All I could hear was the sound of raindrops falling.

They both sighed at the same time.

They could only stay under this small roof and wait quietly for the heavy rain to subside.

The increasingly heavy rain made Ji Qi feel as if they were isolated from the world.

Quietly watching the scenery under the rain in front of him and feeling the unique fragrance emanating from the girl, Ji Qi gradually calmed down.

“When will this rain stop?”

Her slightly damp long black hair fell behind her, and her slender body was still straight. Even in such a situation, Yukinoshita Yukino was still so elegant.

She seemed to be asking Ji Qi, but also seemed to be talking to herself.

Ji Qi, who was not sure whether Yukinoshita was talking to him, replied casually: "Who knows."

scare--

Following the sound, the moment their eyes met, to be honest, Yukinoshita was startled.

She was just talking to herself.

When did this person come to her side?

I remember they seemed to be walking together just now.

That makes sense.

Unlike her usual aggressive demeanor, Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the endless rain outside calmly, and she remained silent.

What should I say now?

Yukinoshita Yukino is different from ordinary girls. Even in this situation that is easy to make people imagine, her fantasies will not be shaken.

Forget it. I don't want to think about these things that ruin the mood.

"Meow?"

Just when Ji Qi was thinking this, Yukinoshita Yukino next to him suddenly let out a cute little meow at the rain curtain outside?

Hello, what kind of development is this?

Did he hear it wrong?

Looking at the extremely delicate profile of Yukinoshita Yukino, Ji Qi was a little confused.

Just when Ji Qi thought it was just an illusion, he glanced casually and saw a cardboard box behind the green trash can not far from them?

Thinking of Yukinoshita Yukino's sudden meaningless pronunciation...

No way?

Is there such a suffocating operation?

By the way, how much do you like cats, Yukinoshita? How can you hear a cat meowing from such a distance, with the sound of rain all around?

This is not something that cat lovers can explain. It’s some kind of superpower, right?

It seemed to answer the questions in Ji Qi's mind.

At first, Yukinoshita Yukino frowned subconsciously, and then walked out of the roof without hesitation, and walked towards the cardboard box with the sound of stepping on water.

She didn't care at all about her school uniform and hair getting wet in an instant.

That's indeed the case.

Ji Qi rubbed his brows helplessly. Is there any need to hesitate at this time? Of course he chose to catch up!

Feeling the coolness brought by the rain falling from the sky, Ji Qi trotted to catch up with Yukinoshita Yukino.

When they arrived, as expected, the wet cardboard box contained a shivering pure white kitten with amber eyes. Only the occasional faint meow of a cat could be heard through the drizzling rain.

Is this how Yukinoshita noticed that there was a cat inside? It must be some kind of superpower!

The person who abandoned the kitten still had some conscience and did not throw it directly on the street. Otherwise, without the shelter, the kitten would have been in great danger after being exposed to the rain for so long.

It’s not optimistic now.

Even though Ji Qi knew nothing about the condition of animals, he could see that the kitten was in very bad condition.

Yukinoshita Yukino squatted down, not disliking that the box was next to the trash can, and wanted to try to touch the poor kitten to warm it up. But she thought that her hands were also cold, so she suppressed this desire.

Her beautiful face, wet with rain, first showed pity and distress, and then turned completely cold.

It seems like he is very angry at the person who did this.

Come to think of it, as a complete cat lover, although I know that this kind of thing happens every day and is inevitable, I still can't stand it when it really happens in front of me.

After a pause, Yukinoshita Yukino picked up the dirty cardboard box, turned around and stared at Ji Qi, and said softly:

"Ji Jun, how far is your home from here?"

Seeing Yukinoshita, who was soaked by the rain and covered in mud, but still hugged the cat tightly, completely different from her usual dignified and elegant demeanor, Ji Qi was stunned.

Her carefully styled black hair sparkled like sugar in the dark sky after being drenched by the rain. Her eyes, as beautiful as blue glass beads, shone with a brilliance that had never changed.

At this moment, the unique presence and beauty of the snow seemed to be carving a path directly out of the heavy rain.

Ji Qi suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief that began to spread from his heart to his entire body.

Even if it rains heavily, there is no way to wash it away.

"Ah... very close."

……

Chapter 65: Yukinoshita is a kind girl

There was a reason why Yukinoshita asked where Himeshichi's family was.

First of all, her home is still some distance away. And the luxury apartment where she lives has a clear rule that cats are not allowed - otherwise she would have gotten one long ago.

Secondly, according to her rich experience, since it is a stray cat, its physical condition could not have been very good before it was abandoned, but now it is just a little cold. There is no need to go to the pet hospital.

Knowing that Ji Qi's home is very close to here, the expedient plan is to find a place to take care of it as soon as possible. Other things are not important. In this weather, it is simply wishful thinking to want to take a taxi, even though Japanese taxis are famous for being expensive. If this continues, the kitten's physical condition will definitely get worse and worse.

If Ji Qi was inconvenient or unwilling, she even planned to exchange it for a favor.

But Ji Qi didn't do that, which made Yukinoshita like him a lot more.

As for asking Ji Qi to adopt this stray cat he had just met, it was a bit difficult.

She hadn't thought of this yet.

The heavier the rain, the fewer people there were on the street. If anyone had nothing to do and was strolling in this kind of weather, it would mean that all Japanese people were crazy. Occasionally, someone holding an umbrella would look at Yukinoshita with a bit of surprise.

After walking for about ten minutes, a residential area appeared around the entrance.

Ji Qi and Yukinoshita walked into one of the buildings on the second floor.

Ji Qi took out a pair of brand new cute ladies' slippers for Yukinoshita as a spare for her sister. Her body temperature was constantly being taken away by her wet clothes, so she hurried to the living room to make a cup of boiling hot tea for the two of them.

"Thank you...please get me a hot towel. I need to keep it warm. Be careful not to get it too hot."

Yukinoshita didn't drink the tea, and her voice sounded unusually anxious.

The kitten's body was a little stiffer than before, which was a very bad sign.

Ji Qi nodded and didn't ask why not give it a bath first. Yukinoshita seemed to be very experienced, so just listen to her.

He got a hot towel as she requested and prepared a dry one for each of them, then returned to Yukinoshita's side.

At this time, Yukinoshita Yukino forgot to say thank you. She was focused and gently wiped the kitten's small body with a towel. Her whole body exuded a gentle temperament that was completely different from her usual self.

“Do you have a space heater or heating pad at home?”

"Does anyone still use this now? Let me think about it. I seem to remember there was one."

Looking at Yukinoshita who was completely focused on the cat, Ji Qi replied helplessly.

Rummaging through the drawers in the living room, Ji Qi found an old heating pad that was probably a few years old.

Tried it and it actually works.

Ji Qi, amazed, handed this to Yukinoshita.

"Is there anything wrong with it?"

Ji Qi looked at the kitten whose fur was gradually becoming smooth and asked. Damn, I envy this kitten who is enjoying Yukinoshita's gentle service. It should be a female, right? It must be a female, right?

If it's a male, forget it now, but I won't forgive you in the future!

A loving and kind girl is very likable.

No one wants the girl they know to be a cold-blooded person.

Especially when this attribute appears in a girl like Yukinoshita, it brings a strong contrast.

"It shouldn't be a big deal."

After carefully wiping the cat's entire body clean and placing it gently on the heating pad, Yukinoshita breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the steaming cup of tea, and said with relief.

"That's good. Now you should take care of yourself. How about taking a shower first? I have some spare clothes for my sister that can be used for you." Looking at Yukinoshita who was staring at the kitten, Ji Qi shook his head.

Objectively speaking, Ji Qi's love is a little more than that of ordinary people. He likes cute animals, but not to the extent of Yukinoshita Yukino.

He didn't say much when he brought this stray kitten home. Anyway, he has the final say in the family now.

"Although this is the most correct thing to do now, I still find it incredible to hear you say it so naturally."

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the kitten, Yukinoshita stared at the kitten with her glowing eyes. In the empty living room, if you listened carefully, you could even hear a sound like "meow" coming out of her mouth.

"It's just me and my sister living at home, so there won't be any problems, don't worry."

"From a purely female perspective, it's actually more dangerous."

Yukinoshita reluctantly turned her gaze from the kitten's body to Ji Qi's face, her tone slightly strange.

"You just said it, didn't you? Putting aside other things, this is the right thing to do. Can you please hurry up? I'm waiting for you to finish washing so I can go wash myself."

Ji Qi, feeling wet and uncomfortable, began to complain unconsciously. To be honest, he was qualified to complain. He accompanied Xuexia in the rain and helped her take care of the kitten. He was busy all over. It was okay to complain, right?

Although Yukinoshita Yukino is very beautiful, Himechi is now somewhat immune to beautiful women.

"Just to make it clear, I have a fifth degree in Aikido, okay?"

There was no complacency or boasting in her tone, as if she was simply stating the facts in order to prevent someone from having bad intentions. As Ji Qi said, Yukinoshita clearly understood these principles, and after a moment of hesitation, she agreed directly.

Ji Qi's mouth twitched fiercely. So, as a grown man, it seems that he can't beat Yukinoshita?

Feeling so ashamed!

And…does he look like that kind of guy?

What a dog bites Lu Dongbin!

Ji Qi said without any good mood: "Really? Then you are great. Go wash up quickly. I will find some clothes for you."

"Thank you for your help today. And...thank you."

Yukinoshita, whose entire body, including her underwear, was soaked, glanced at the kitten who was quietly lying on the heating pad and recovering, and her softest spot in her heart was slightly touched. Even her tone became gentler.

The previous dissatisfaction with Yukinoshita's attitude instantly disappeared after hearing this sentence.

Seeing that there was a lot of dirt on her school uniform, Ji Qi waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I've been so taken care of by you these past few days, so I'll just treat this as a small reward."

Yes. No matter what Yukinoshita Yukino's purpose was, it was a fact that she, who had always been among the top three students in her grade, took at least two hours a day to tutor herself.

From a student's perspective, this is already a tremendous help.

But Yukinoshita didn't think so.

She wouldn't lie to herself.

Without making any comment, she asked Ji Qi to look after the kitten for the time being. Then, following Ji Qi's instructions, she walked gracefully towards the bathroom.

Yukinoshita Yukino is a kind girl.

Ji Qi was extremely sure.
