"It has nothing to do with you. I was the one who brought up the after-school tutoring thing."

After Kiritani Tetsuya finished speaking, Hoshino Aihime looked at him deeply and then spoke.

When Kiritani Tetsuya heard this, he didn't know what to say.

But at the same time, he was silently relieved in his heart.

Judging from Hoshino Aihime's performance just now, this divine girl probably doesn't hold too much grudge against her because of what happened last Friday.

At least judging from the other party's expression and tone of voice, Kiritani Tetsuya couldn't feel any anger at all.

But just before the tense strings in Kiritani Tetsuya's heart relaxed, the girl next to him continued to speak after pondering for a while.

"But if you really feel that you are responsible, you can just turn your head and I can give you a small punishment."

"Sure enough, she was still angry."

Kiritani Tetsuya's heart skipped a beat again.

However, although he felt helpless at Hoshino Aihime's subsequent words and requests, he still turned his head honestly and faced the divine girl's beautiful face and the clear eyes on her face.

At the same time, Kiritani Tetsuya's originally relaxed heart became tense again.

Under his nervous gaze, Hoshino Aiji still had that indifferent expression, but the next second he saw the girl slowly raising her right arm, and slightly clenching her white and tender little hand into a fist.

, and quickly stretched towards the position of his head.

Seeing the girl's sudden move, Kiritani Tetsuya's expression suddenly became panicked, and he subconsciously closed his eyes to avoid looking directly at the tragic scene that was about to happen to him.

But the next moment, the expected pain and loud noise did not come as expected. Just when Kiritani Tetsuya felt a little confused, he heard a slight bang from his forehead.

So Kiritani Tetsuya tried to open his eyes, and saw that the divine girl had stretched out her right hand, and lightly flicked the center of her forehead with her slender and smooth index finger.

After completing this action, Hoshino Aihime retracted her arm lightly, and slowly looked away from the other person, and then said lightly.

"I forgive you."

"......Thanks."

Kiritani Tetsuya responded in a daze, as if he had not yet reacted to the scene just now.

At the same time, he subconsciously touched his forehead, and it seemed that the middle of his forehead still retained the cold touch brought by Hoshino Aihime's index fingernail.

"So this time, are we considered a tie?"

Seeing that the seemingly tense atmosphere gradually calmed down, Kiritani Tetsuya forced himself to calm down his original panic, and then tried to ask.

"That's pretty much it."

Hoshino Aiji simply responded, but at this moment she seemed a little more distracted.

"That's good. Since there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

After hearing Hoshino Aiki's reply, another stone in Kiritani Tetsuya's heart fell to the ground. After that, he smiled and spoke.

After saying these words, he planned to turn around and leave.

"Well, remember to arrive at the student union office on time tomorrow afternoon and bring your study materials with you."

Before Kiritani Tetsuya had even taken the first step, Hoshino Aihime spoke up again.

"ha?"

Kiritani Tetsuya's body suddenly froze in place because of the girl's words.

"Didn't we draw a tie?"

When his body turned back again, he said in confusion.

"It's a tie, but I also said before that if you don't reach the expected ranking in this monthly test, you still have to continue to participate in the following after-school tutoring."

When saying this, Hoshino Aihime looked at Kiritani Tetsuya again, and at the same time, a hint of teasing appeared in the corner of her seductive lips.

"May I ask what the expected ranking was that you wrote on the form last time?"

"..."

Kiritani Tetsuya suddenly fell silent, his face full of doubts about life.

During this period, he had been worried about the possible revenge of Hoshino Aiki, which led him to accidentally forget about it.

Opposite Kiritani Tetsuya, seeing his silent look and the expression on his face, Hoshino Aihime couldn't help but smile, and then she put away her somewhat casual expression and changed it to a slightly serious one.

Open your mouth.

"If you really don't want to participate, that's fine, but you need to accompany me to a place."

"Where to go?"

Seeing that there was still room for change, Kiritani Tetsuya immediately asked.

"Come with me to visit a friend."

Hoshino Aihime replied, a complicated expression that was difficult for ordinary people to detect quickly flashed through her eyes.

"Now?" Kiritani Tetsuya continued to ask.

Hoshino Aihime nodded at this.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. It won't take you too much time." The girl then added.

Not long after, after seeing the other party's agreement, the girl let out a breath and started walking outside the school building.

Seeing this, Kiritani Tetsuya also quickly followed, but after taking a few steps, he saw the girl in front of him suddenly stopped again.

"By the way, can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

Kiritani Tetsuya also stopped when he saw the other party stop.

"If you win this competition, what would you want me to do?" Hoshino Aihime's seemingly leisurely voice continued to come from the front.

"To be honest, I haven't really thought about this. I was just reviewing my homework some time ago."

Hearing the girl's question, Kiritani Tetsuya was surprised and answered truthfully.

"Really? It turns out that my charm is so small in your heart. This kind of problem is not worth spending a few seconds to think about."

The girl deliberately responded with a slightly disappointed tone, and her body that had stopped started to move again.

"It has nothing to do with this. It's better to say that you are too good and put a lot of pressure on me. I really don't have any other energy or thoughts to think about this matter."

Kiritani Tetsuya thought for a moment and then said, at this time he also walked to the girl's side.

These words not only further explained the answer she had just given, but also praised the other person so much that Hoshino Aihime couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Kiritani Tetsuya who had just followed, but she quickly turned back.

"Forget it, I'm just asking casually. In fact, it doesn't make any sense even if you think about it seriously. This situation is impossible to happen anyway." Looking at the road ahead, Hoshino Aihime said lightly.

"I think maybe so."
