I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

Shinji Kitahara felt obligated to help them resolve this matter and had no intention of backing down.

But while he was determined not to back down, Shinji Kitahara didn't want to do something wrong with his good intentions, so he was quite cautious when he spoke.

After Zhou nodded, he hesitated for a while before tentatively speaking.

"Did she say something to you after she went back?"

After a moment's hesitation, Zhou nodded slightly again.

"That's it..."

Shinji Kitahara nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

"Are you feeling betrayed by your friends right now?"

nod.

"You're confused, you don't know what to do, and you don't know how to get along with her?"

nod.

"If possible, would you like to restore your relationship to what it was before?"

nod.

Well, the case is solved. That idiot Ms. Cao must have gone back and confessed everything.

Shinji Kitahara nodded inwardly, then his expression gradually turned helpless, and a look of disappointment resurfaced in his eyes.

Although he did encourage Grasshopper to take the initiative yesterday, he didn't expect her to be this proactive!

When they finished talking yesterday, Shinji Kitahara thought that Ms. Kusa had finally figured it out.

But it turns out that she has only six of her seven orifices open, and is completely ignorant of the others.

Not to mention, it's obvious that Special Zhou's heart is still tied to Silent Suzuka, and his affection for her hasn't even reached the required level. He might not even know whether Special Zhou is actually Suzuka or not.

Confessing your feelings directly under these circumstances would be suicidal.

Moreover, judging from Ms. Cao's cheerful appearance, she might have been particularly upset that Zhou had replied that he needed to think about it and was still harboring illusions.

You're committing a terrible sin, Ms. Grass.

Do you think you deserve all the assists I gave you?

Shinji Kitahara thought bitterly to himself.

However, no matter how much you might criticize Ms. Grass's amazing moves in your mind, or how much you might want to bring her over and punish her, that's all for later.

The most important issue right now is how to appease the current extraordinary week.

After a long silence, Shinji Kitahara spoke again.

“Zhou, listen to me. I know it’s hard to accept when something like this actually happens to you. You’re probably feeling really bad right now.”

"But you don't need to worry about it too much."

"After all, you are still young, and you have plenty of time in the future, so there's no need to rush into making a decision."

"Even disregarding other factors, you're both about to debut. It's not too late to make a decision about this after you've completed your three-year training..."

"Besides, on the bright side, at least Grasshopper doesn't mean you any harm, and for some people, this might even be a good thing..."

...No malicious intent? Something to be happy about?

Originally, upon hearing Kitahara Shinji's words, Special Zhou thought that he had realized something.

She huddled in his arms, too afraid to move, her face flushed red, feeling as if her thoughts would be exposed at any moment.

But gradually, as Shinji Kitahara's story unfolded, Special Week also slowly realized that something seemed a little off.

Mr. Shinji, you don't actually think that Kusakami has feelings for her in that way, do you...?

Zhou was particularly clear that Cao Shangfei didn't have those kinds of feelings for her.

At the very least, if she really had those kinds of feelings for him, she definitely wouldn't have been so quick and proactive in helping him get ahead of her before.

Even so, although Zhou knew perfectly well that Kusakabe didn't have those kinds of feelings for her, she thought that given Kitahara Shinji's blockhead nature, he might actually think that way.

Especially since I didn't notice it before because I wasn't aware of it, but now that I think about it...

At multiple points in the past, Shinji Kitahara seems to have repeatedly provided her and Hibiki with opportunities to be alone together, and engaged in various actions that appear to be helping them...

As the memories deepened, Special Week's expression became subtle, and he even temporarily stopped caring about the grass flying incident.

Seeing that she seemed to be in a better mood, Kitahara Shinji thought that his comforting words had worked and was just breathing a sigh of relief when a small voice came from his arms.

"Fool."

Shinji Kitahara was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.

"What? Did you just say something?"

After a moment of silence, the voice rang out again.

"Shinji-san is an idiot."

Kitahara Shinji: "......?"

I was comforting you, how did you become an idiot? How could you repay kindness with enmity?

However, in the face of Kitahara Shinji's doubts, Special Zhou did not offer any explanation.

Because at the same time she figured this out, she also realized that if used properly, this point might be useful in some areas.

Even so, after realizing this, she couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Shinji Kitahara.

She clearly liked him, but he ended up helping someone else pursue her...

With this thought in mind, she gently climbed up Kitahara Shinji's chest and then gently bit his neck.

"hiss--"

Shinji Kitahara gasped.

But it didn't actually hurt. After all, Zhou Ke couldn't bear to hurt her most precious treasure, so she only bit it very lightly to express her dissatisfaction, without even leaving a tooth mark. It was more like a kiss.

As for Shinji Kitahara, he wasn't actually in much pain; he just wanted to comfort her and cheer her up.

Then, after a while, as the 'biting' ended, Shinji Kitahara patted Special Week on the back and whispered.

"How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?"

"......No."

Zhou turned her head away angrily, refusing to meet his gaze.

Seeing her like this, Shinji Kitahara breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could even catch his breath, Zhou spoke up again.

"Shinji-san, am I really that good? Even Kusanagi..."

She deliberately didn't finish her sentence.

Because of the previous setup, Shinji Kitahara naturally misunderstood it as something else, and chuckled as he rubbed her head.

"Of course, our little special week is such a lovely child, of course it's wonderful."

"...Liar."

Under Shinji Kitahara's questioning gaze, Special Zhou looked at him with a pout and said seriously.

“Even though Mr. Shinji doesn’t like me.”

Hearing her words, Shinji Kitahara was taken aback, then smiled with a hint of helplessness, rubbing her head as he spoke.

"How could that be? I really like you, Xiao Te Te Zhou. But there are different kinds of liking. Grasshopper's feelings for you are one kind, and mine are another..."

Shinji Kitahara suddenly stopped speaking halfway through his sentence.

"Hey Zhou, what are you doing?"

Sensing the sudden shift in position of the delicate body in his arms, now pressed directly against him, and seeing the face that had suddenly moved so close, Kitahara Shinji felt a sudden sense of foreboding.

And soon, his premonition came true.

"I know you're only saying this to comfort me, Shinji-san, but I don't want this fake affection. I want you to genuinely like me, Shinji-san..."

"No, especially Zhou, listen to me, there are different kinds of liking, just like your mother..."

The words stopped abruptly.

With a soft, warm touch, Shinji Kitahara's words were once again cut off.

However, this time, because Zhou was reluctant to use any harsh methods on Kitahara Shinji, he was only gently held by her and was not pressed onto the sofa.

But not being forced onto the sofa doesn't mean this time is better than the previous times; in fact, it could be said to be worse than all the previous times combined.

Because of the previous times, although he was forced onto the sofa, he basically had no contact with them other than verbal exchanges.

But now, Zhou Ke is sitting in his lap, or even pressed against him.

As the mouth movements intensified, Zhou's body also began to sway slightly.

Unlike other female horses, Zhou's body is quite well-developed, and her body is relatively wide.

While it may not reach the level of a super-small bay where it's almost overflowing and you could sink into it, it can still be described as lush and soft.

Not to mention that she was still pressed tightly against Shinji Kitahara's body, and once she started moving, those few thin layers of fabric could not block the transmission of that soft touch at all.

The lingering sensation from the previous 'biting' hadn't yet dissipated, and the awkwardness in the mouth was still palpable, coupled with the soft touch brought by this uninhibited contact...

Shinji Kitahara wanted to tell her to get down quickly, but the problem was that his mouth was gagged and he couldn't speak.

As for pushing her away, although Zhou did not restrain him forcefully.

The problem is that even among Uma Musume girls, Special Week belongs to the category of those with exceptional strength.

Even without using force, and without resorting to special methods that might harm Zhou, it would be very difficult for him to pry her open.

Then, after many unsuccessful attempts, this continuous stimulation occurred.

As a physically and mentally healthy man, Shinji Kitahara inevitably experienced certain reactions.

I also felt it during the special week.

After realizing it, and after a brief pause, despite her face turning as red as a freshly cooked shrimp, she resolutely continued her actions.

a long time.

The 'biting' finally ended.

Special Zhou slowly raised her head, looking at the man in front of her with a slightly unfocused gaze.

"Shinji-san, I..."

Subconsciously, Zhou seemed to want to say something.

She had barely opened her mouth when clear footsteps sounded outside.

And then, once again.

The footsteps stopped.

There was a knock on the door.

Chapter 148: Something's probably broken somewhere.

When the knocking sounded this time, Shinji Kitahara did not panic or despair as he usually did; in fact, he was not even emotionally affected.

It's not that he thinks the current situation is normal and there's no need to avoid others.

But after all, he had already experienced this twice before.

Once you've tried it, you'll get used to it; the second time, you'll get used to it; and the third time

Even in the instant he was ambushed by Special Week, he had a vague premonition that this situation would most likely occur again this time.

Upon hearing the familiar knocking sound, instead of panic or despair, there was even a strange sense of "I knew it" in their voice.

After marveling at this, he began to wonder if he had some special ability, that whenever something like this happened, he could immediately summon a horse girl under his name to knock on the door.

However calmly and with a sense of awe, Shinji Kitahara knew that this situation was awkward.

Especially since the situation this special week is different from that of Elisei, we can't use experimental accidents as an excuse to get by.
