121-by fishing up a sunken object...




Before I knew it, an hour had already passed.

You broke up with Ryuka?
'Don't say that!
'Ryuka asked me to get together with you somehow, and my efforts to do so were ......'.
'What? So you're saying Comet's plan is ......?''
'It's not me, it's Ryuka's request...'
'So ...... so ...... so ...... I've been dancing with you ......'
'You're a pain in the ass when you're drunk, you know that?'

Makoto had not changed much, except that he had dyed his hair. To my surprise, he did not go to a vocational school but to a university. He said he was going to study culinary arts at a vocational school, so I thought to myself, you never know what life has in store for you.

'But I'm glad Comet is doing well. ......I went to see him sleeping several times, but I thought he was going to die. ......Ugh, ugh... ...''
'Don't cry all of a sudden there. You're going through a lot of emotional ups and downs. Don't drink any more.
'Sorry ...... but I'm glad you're back ......'
''I appreciate you saying so.''
'But I'm angry that they're going to take Nippa away from me. ......'
'Please take it.'
'You don't mind?

Makoto's eyes lit up and she crowded me. I was not happy to be crowded by a man, so I grabbed Makoto's face and twisted it in the direction where Alina was. I slapped him on the butt and sent him off, as if to say, "Here, there she is, go ahead. He moved to Alina like a dog chasing a ball and got slapped to death. It's a real tragedy. Let's go visit his grave. Perfect.

You're okay. Is he dead?
'No, I'm alive. It should hurt like hell, but it feels good.
'Good for you. A new world is dawning.

Makoto was rubbing his slapped cheek and ecstatic.
I thought. If aliens ever come and explain the human life form, they should not use Makoto Takane as a sample.
His brief moment of joy was ended by the arrival of a smiling Alina. Makoto was pushed away by Alina, but fortunately Masao was there to catch him. Without Masao, Makoto would have been a speck on the wall, dancing with an angel in a world of pleasure.
Sitting next to him was President Alina Hiba, dressed in an elegant indigo one-piece that smelled devilishly good.

(If you let your guard down, it's the Sanzu River: ...... if you let your guard down, it's the Sanzu River: ......)

I began to fight with myself not to go crazy with her beauty.

'You seem to be enjoying yourself. What are your thoughts on seeing each other again after all these years?
'Good to see you all looking well.'
'That's our word for you, isn't it?
'Well, maybe so. Three years is a long time. Tsuru looks like an adult woman, Masao is getting more and more like a monster, and Hakuna is getting cuter and cuter. ......'
'I'm jealous. I'm jealous. I'll be jealous.
'Stop making a straight face. Highlight your eyes.'
'Oh, I'm sorry. I'll just have a drink and forget about it.
'Do you drink a lot?'
'No. One sip and you're in trouble with the police.
'Just drink the water.

Tsuru interrupted our conversation. She, too, appeared to be intoxicated.

'Ah! Comet! Why are you here!
'No, I was there from the beginning, wasn't I? It's my discharge party to begin with, so it's not surprising that I'm there, right?''
'Eh? Didn't you come here for the girls anyway?

Wow, that's a pain in the ass.
Tsuru-san's personality seems to have not changed since our high school days, as she tries to talk me down with a glare and a smirk. He seems to be still trying to make fun of me with a highball in his hand and a wicked smile on his face.

So? So, what do you think?
'What's that?
'You must be talking about the beautiful woman next door, you bagaaaaaaaaaaa!
'It's dripping on your clothes. You're showing through.'
'People aren't born with clothes on!
'Are you sure you're all right, buddy? Chickens can still speak Japanese better than you.
'That's why! You guys are getting married!
''What?''

What the hell is that?
At the same time, Alina was like, 'Noooooo! I screamed and covered both my ears from behind. At first glance, this may seem like a happy body touch, but I was between life and death at this moment. Alina, whose limiter had been opened by the power of alcohol, tried to crush my head with her stupid power. She didn't put her hands on my head. It was more like a shoulder crush. She was pressing down with the bottom of her palm.
Alina is screaming something, but I don't hear anything, just the world creaking. Maybe it's the sound of bones being twisted. I've been hearing this horrible sound for a while now. My face contorts and my vision narrows under the tremendous force. In that small world, a crane was pointing at my face and laughing. No, no, no, please help me. It f*cking hurts! If I didn't have this comfort of Alina's breast against mine, I'd be dead.
I slapped her hip with my right hand and told her I was at my limit. When she released me, I checked to make sure her eyeballs hadn't popped out and her ears hadn't turned to minced meat, then turned to protest Alina.



I'm sorry. Don't hate me. Kyuuu.'
'What's with the moe factor? It's coming to my heart!
'I'm just trying to imitate what Tsuru would say if she were a burly girl. I'm not that kind of character.
'Mr. Tsuru, you're being fought over.'
'Alina. I asked for vodka straight.
'Comet. Help me.
I can't. I'm running away.

Alina tried to stop me by pulling on my sleeve, but I managed to shake her off and run to the bathroom.
I've had a few drinks, but I still don't know how good I feel. I can only urinate more easily.

Hey.

A stranger called out to me from next door. He is probably too drunk to know who I am. I ignored him and continued to pour lemon juice into the urinal, and he called out to me again.

Why are you ignoring me?
'No well ......'
'Have you forgotten me? I'm Takazo Numakura, who violated the law by using his bicycle in the opposing relay with impunity.''
'Intelligence Takazo! Why are you here!
It's a code name I've missed. I was there from the beginning. I was hiding in Masao Tanaka's big body.
'Long time no see! You've got your hair done right, you~! I'm like the son of some zaibatsu!''
'Stop it. Don't look at me when I'm doing my business. You'll get splattered.

Come to think of it, I did something stupid at the gymnastics festival. I don't know how the student council at the time allowed it. I'm glad I had the tool - not the connection - of Niwadatsuru.
After returning from the restroom, I went to talk with Takakura.

I was really surprised to hear that you collapsed. I tried to find out if there was anything I could do to help you since someone close to you and a friend of yours whom you knew well was unconscious. But I am sorry. There was really nothing I could do. I could only pray for your safety.
'No, no, no, thank you for worrying about me. I don't want you to think I've forgotten about you.
'Masao told me that you woke up. I guess he wanted to tell you as a colleague with whom he fought in the gymnastic festival, although we are not on e-mailing terms. It was good to hear your joke again.
'I'm really going to cry...... you're the most sane of the guys I've seen again in the last few weeks......'

While I was feeling very emotional, Masao came to me, dragging his huge body.

'Comet. Congratulations on your release from the hospital. I'm so glad!
Thank you. I'm glad to hear that Masao is doing well.
Thanks to you, I've changed. I can think positively now and there is nothing to be afraid of!
'I didn't do anything special, but I really enjoyed the sports festival. I'm glad I'm a homecoming club.
I'm playing football in college now. I'm sorry, I graduated from the homecoming club.
'That's awesome. Good luck! Just don't get any casualties!
'Yes, sir!

Every time he speaks, his chest muscles are groaning. ....... I wonder how far he is going to go to become a muscle monster.
I was relieved to see 'I LOVE PROTEIN' on his T-shirt, just like him.




Yes, I'm Kasai, the service manager!
Good bye.

I wished her well as soon as she introduced herself in that way at zero distance.
I was relieved that she had not become a pole dancer in an illegal brothel. I had feared that she would become a dangerous person in the future, but it seems that Tsuru has disciplined her well. I am very thankful. She used to be monitored by the KGB, so the fact that she is now living peacefully is a sign that the danger is over.

'Today I was almost molested on the train.
'That's unforgivable. Molestation is the worst act. Someday I'll castrate him.
Hey, it's the worst, isn't it? But I kicked him in the groin as hard as I could, so it's okay!
You did it. You saved me the trouble of castration!
'I'm probably crushed! Yay!'
'Yay! I'm going to die!

What the hell are we talking about? It would be more useful if we were still throwing salt on slugs.



'I was mildly depressed at the time when I heard that the comet was in danger.
'Oh ...... sorry about that ......'
'No, it's just that I was weak, that's why I was so worried. ...... I couldn't believe the comet in front of me. ......'

Oh ...... I've been tormenting a girl in my sleep.
I didn't talk to her much after I first found out how much Shirana liked me and made a break with her. We were both too reserved and concerned about each other. Looking back on it now, it is a page of my youth that was both bitter and sweet.

But sometimes I can't believe it either. I mean, I blacked out during that summer vacation, and the next time I woke up, three years had passed. I have no memory of time during that period. I guess you could say I'm in a dreamless sleep. When you didn't dream, it's only for a moment, right?'


'Yeah. I think I know what you mean. Oh, is it morning already? It's a feeling like that.'
Yes, I do. That's why I sometimes wonder if I'm dreaming every moment I'm talking with Shirana. If you are a normal person, in a dream you are in reality, and you don't know where reality is until you wake up.
It's not that hard. If this were a dream, the comet wouldn't be drunk or unable to taste alcohol, would it?
'Indeed. If I'm still in that hospital room, there's no way I know what it feels like to be drunk, or what it tastes like. This is too much to imagine.
'That's right.

Please don't give me a happy ending in heaven. I'm not going to dance with a bare-chested, feather-wearing, dewy-eyed messenger of God just yet. If he comes for me, I'll call the police and have him arrested for indecency.

'Shirana. You have a boyfriend, don't you?
'What? How do you know!

I said it at random and got it right.

I'm a homecoming girl. Yes, I'm a homecoming club member.
What a disgusting thing to say! d*mn it! I have a boyfriend. ......'
'I wish you happiness. I'll be there for the wedding.
'I don't know about that yet! Just so you know, I'm still dragging my feet! The comet!''
'I'm like a caterpillar being eaten by a swallow, so don't worry about me.
'It's not good to be so down on yourself! It's my first love!
I'm so embarrassed. Ha-ha-ha-ha.'

Oh my God, Alina's looking at me. She's staring at me disapprovingly. If I don't get back soon, she'll give me the middle finger.

Thanks for everything since middle school. For being such a weirdo to talk to.
'No. It's been a pleasure.

Hakuna bows her head with a bow. She will be a good wife for sure. If he's a scumbag, I'll whittle him up in a blender and feed him to the plankton. I apologize if there is a red tide, fishermen all over the country.
