I'm in Teresin, dedicated to playing badly

"But even so, you still trust me, don't you?"

"of course."

Shinji Kitahara responded without hesitation.

Then I realized something was wrong.

Wait a minute, this sounds like I've been completely fooled...

"It's not because we're stupid, it's because this trust is mutual."

Satomi Hikaru said earnestly.

"It's not just that you trust me, I trust you with all my heart."

People who live a life of privilege are extremely sensitive to malice.

Conversely, if you treat him with all your heart without any malice, he won't notice.

They might even reciprocate with the same kindness.

This is also one of the reasons why Kozo Satomi likes Shinji Kitahara.

She really liked that sweet taste.

"Um, Guangzuan, how old are you...?"

Shinji Kitahara hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

“I know, and I know your bottom line, so I won’t do anything out of line at the moment.”

Kozumi Satomi sat there very obediently.

"However, when the time comes, or if you ever change your taste and want to try something unripe, I hope you will come to me as soon as possible..."

"If you don't want to come, I can come to you."

This is a threat! A blatant threat!

Despite the threat, Shinji Kitahara felt somewhat at ease after hearing it.

"You are a good boy."

Shinji Kitahara praised him sincerely.

Having been jumped on so many times, this was the first time he had ever met a horse girl who was so honest and followed the rules.

Although the feeling of having everything arranged is somewhat terrifying, Shinji Kitahara doesn't actually mind it much.

Just as she said, she had absolute trust in him, so he trusted her too.

Moreover, if he had a choice, Shinji Kitahara would be more than happy to have someone else handle things for him so he could go off and slack off and enjoy himself.

but.....

"Isn't this not good?"

Satomi Hikari blinked.

"...What's not good?"

Shinji Kitahara was somewhat puzzled.

"That's exactly the kind of performance you're giving."

Kozumi Satomi's expression remained unchanged, but a strange glint appeared in his eyes.

"I've been trying my best to restrain myself so as not to betray your trust, but your current behavior..."

She leaned forward, reached out, and stroked Shinji Kitahara's cheek.

Eyes blurred.

"It's really a bit too tempting."

"Don't force me to make a mistake now."

“My dear, Kitahara trainer.”

Chapter 320: The Northern Black Steed

To be honest, when he first saw Hikari Satomi, he still wanted to advise him to think it over.

But after the conversation, he felt that he should be considering himself, not Satomi Hikari.

After all, young girls are not that mature, and even if he really likes her, Shinji Kitahara would feel a little guilty.

But Satomi Hikari...

Um......

From any perspective, he is the one who is mentally immature and has to worry about being deceived.

In short, let’s take it one step at a time.

Wait, something's not right... Did I forget something...?

As Shinji Kitahara was about to part ways after finishing his conversation with Mitsuzumi Satomi, he suddenly remembered something.

"What about Xiao Bei? How come she's in that group too?"

"Well, that's a question you'll have to ask yourself."

Satomi Hikari gave him a meaningful look.

It's not a complicated matter.

The businesses in the northern region have a slightly shady side.

Out of concern for the safety of Kita Genko, the Kita family rarely allowed her to be involved in family affairs and were happy to see her with the young lady of a prestigious family like the Satomi family.

But it is precisely because of this 'protection' that, although he has a good personality and is willing to help others, he doesn't have any particularly close friends besides Hikari Satomi.

For example, those who want to be friends with her often find themselves chatting with two burly men in sunglasses and suits with tattoos glancing at her from time to time. Their demeanor suggests they've been through a lot.

The sense of oppression was immediately overwhelming.

It's not fair to blame the Northern Family for being overly cautious, given their family-based nature.

Although attacking a horse girl, especially a young one, might anger the three goddesses, there's always the chance of encountering a reckless fool.

Does the Northern Black Steed not know all this?

She really doesn't know.

Just as someone who grows up in a honey pot becomes insensitive to sweetness, the Northern Black Horse, who grew up in the North, is also somewhat insensitive to certain things.

Even though the family has tried their best to prevent her from coming into contact with those things, some details are still unavoidable.

A burly man in a suit, tattoos, and sunglasses? Aren't those everywhere?

Sinking Tokyo Bay? I've heard my family mention it a few times; it seems to be some kind of entertainment project.

I've always heard of the Yakuza, but I've never seen one. Is it really not just an urban legend?

Hmm? You're asking what my family does? I'm not really sure...

That's about it.

She is not lonely; after all, her personality and abilities are what they are, and she can basically chat with people wherever she goes.

But we ended up getting along well.

Her upbringing has led her to believe that this kind of social interaction is normal.

Until she met Kozo Satomi, until she met Shinji Kitahara.

Xiaozuan is her best friend and her closest confidante.

She initially saw Shinji Kitahara as a friend as well.

Later, after we got to know each other better, he became my older brother.

after that......

"Trainer Kitahara, I would like to meet the Emperor-senpai."

"Okay, I'll take you there."

“Trainer Kitahara, I’d like to take a walk around Tressen.”

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Trainer Kitahara, I've run into some trouble..."

"Trainer Kitahara, I'm having some troubles..."

"Trainer Kitahara, how do I do this...?"

"Trainer Kitahara, I..."

When did that pure emotion begin to change?

The Northern Black Horse was unaware.

Perhaps it was when he helped her in various ways, or when she encountered some troubles and confided in him at night, or when he fulfilled whatever she asked for.

Is that the feeling of friendship? It doesn't seem so.

She was very close to Kouzumi Satomi; in fact, one could say that he was her only friend before she met Shinji Kitahara.

But we're just friends.

Although Satomi Kozumi seems quiet, you'll find that she's actually a bit too self-centered once you get to know her better.

They're the kind of people who act on a whim, without considering the feelings of others, and just push forward with their own plans.

—Although Northern Xuanju is not qualified to comment on her in this regard.

For example, she likes to hang lanterns when she sleeps. The first time she asked Hikari Satoshi to crawl over and stay with her for a night, she hung them up all night.

It made the other person's dark circles very bad, and they even had to buy a special eye mask afterwards.

But Shinji Kitahara is different.

He didn't always dote on her; at times, he would teach or even scold her.

But that only increased her affection for him.

She didn't have a condescending attitude, and the content of her teachings and reprimands was all what she believed to be correct.

You could even say it suits her preferences.

Northern Black Horse is a good boy.

She is lively, optimistic, cheerful, helpful, and very loyal.

She had always longed to be the kind of woman who was unassuming in ordinary times, but could step forward and turn the tide in the event of a crisis.

In her eyes, Shinji Kitahara was that kind of person.

The little things that happened every day were fermenting, and the genuine feelings that had been lacking for a long time were made up for.

Every time we spent together, every time we communicated, every time we poured our hearts out.

From acquaintance to getting along, and then to becoming familiar.

With each step forward, her feelings for him deepened.

Although at the very beginning, it was Satomi Hikari who went to see and leech off Kitahara Shinji in various ways under her name.

But later on, she took the initiative more often.

Even if Mitsuzu Satomi didn't intend to, she would secretly find opportunities to meet with Shinji Kitahara, and they even secretly exchanged contact information.

Shinji Kitahara had no suspicion of her since she was still a child. He not only exchanged contact information with her, but also, with a calculated move, showed her things she shouldn't have seen.

Super Speed ​​King, Treson Guardian, the Past, Horse Girl Hunting, Investigating the Black Market...

Each one struck a chord with her.

She knew it was wrong, but she just couldn't help it.

Although he appears innocent and lively, there's a touch of madness in Kita Genko's personality.

After all, she was a horse girl from the north, and she was also close friends with Mitsuzumi Satomi.
