MTL - Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home-Chapter 79 Hishida's mind

   Chapter 79 Hishida's Mind

  The world is always full of bad tastes. For example, the more you want to find things, the more you can’t find them, and the more you don’t want to see people, the more you meet.

   This is the current status of Hishida.

   Looking at the first-year student above who was about to go downstairs, her expression first changed to disgust.

   The mood that originally wanted to go to the rooftop for lunch disappeared instantly.

   However, Kato Yusuke didn't react. Even if he saw her senior, he didn't seem to see her. He walked past without saying a word and walked downstairs.

   Seeing this, Hishida's expression darkened.

   "Hey, first grader." She stopped the other party, and in the face of the boy's suspicious gaze, Hishida couldn't help but speak.

   "You better stay away from Sawamura-san, don't tarnish her talent."

"boring."

   Kato Yusuke withdrew his gaze and raised his feet to continue going downstairs.

   Maybe it was the eyes that deeply stimulated Hishida, causing her to make an extremely irrational behavior in this situation.

   "If only people like you disappeared—!" Hishida said so, and threw the thing in his hand.

  唰—

   The bento box that came out of his hand flew straight towards the boy's head. Judging from the strength when she threw it, if she was smashed by this one blow, it would never end well.

   "Let's at least lie down in the health room for a day."

   Kato Yusuke, who was thinking about this, raised his arm, his slender fingers spread slightly, and the flying lunch box was caught in the tiger's mouth, and then he held it in his hand.

   "In addition, this time has already been said three times, so I have to solve it." He raised his head, his eyes became a little cold, "What do you want to do? Hishida-senpai."

   Hishida, who was enveloped by an indescribable sense of oppression, could not help but take two steps back, and then said sternly, "I'm just protecting Sawamura-san..."

   "Guard?" Yusuke Kato interrupted her, "Let's not talk about your violence against me, what do you mean by guard?"

   "Sawamura-san is perfect, beautiful and humble... At the same time, he has talents that we don't have. You have no idea what kind of changes such a person can bring to the art world!"

  Hitsuda's face became slightly distorted.

   "So I absolutely do not allow anyone to desecrate Sawamura-san's talent. This is also the consensus of everyone in the art department! Because she is destined to shine in the future of the art world!"

   Kato Yusuke was silent for a while.

   "talent"

   This is what he has heard countless times from other people about Eiri, and this is especially evident in the art department.

  Thinking about Toyama Harumi's lonely expression when talking about this, he opened his mouth and asked an unrelated question.

   "...I wanted to ask before, but the third graders who still come to the art club to participate in activities every day seem to be the only one."

   "Even if you don't take into account the high school seniors who dropped out of the club for the sake of entering school. Judging from the fact that the current club members are all first-year students, this is obviously not normal. This situation is caused by Sawamura-san, right?"

   "No—!" Hishida's voice became sharp, white light reflected on the lenses of his glasses, "It's not Sawamura-san's fault, it's just that they can't stay here because they are too weak!"

   "Can't win awards, can't get recognition, feel pressure, watch others keep improving but stagnate. People who quit the department because of such boring reasons are not eligible to stay in the art department."

   Her words changed.

   "Besides, what if you don't get an award? As long as Sawamura can be in the art department... winning this kind of thing is easy. We mortals can just leave our dreams to her to realize it, right?!"

   Sure enough... When the gap is large enough, the former longing becomes a kind of inferiority complex.

   is like the weeds in the flowers, everyone's eyes are attracted by the brighter things, and naturally they can't notice the weeds on the side.

   If things go on like this for a long time, some people will not be able to accept this situation and quit, and even those who stay will become his extreme character.

   He thought he was doing something beneficial to Eri, but he never considered the client's thoughts.

  So Kato Yusuke raised his head and said unceremoniously to Hishida: "Forcing things that you can't do on others is really shameful and selfish."

   Hearing what he said, Hishida couldn't help but glared at Yusuke Kato and said, "What do people like you understand—!?"

   "I only know that everyone has their own pursuit and love of things, and there is no obligation to live for the expectations of others."

   Kato Yusuke did not avoid Hishida's gaze, and said in a flat but powerful voice.

   "I don't know why you joined the art department, and I'm not interested in knowing it. But right now, you're just a poor worm living on other people's bodies."

   "It's ridiculous that you not only don't know it yourself, but also want others to change according to your ideal, don't you think it's too much?"

   "Stop joking!" Hishida denied excitedly: "We joined the art department because of our love. You have no idea how much effort everyone has put into this!"

   "Then are you still working hard? If it's really for love, whether you can harvest and grow in the process should be far more important than winning an award, right?"

"…Eh?"

   Hishida's expression froze on his face, and the other party's calm words were like an invisible sword, piercing straight into his heart.

   "Must refute!"

   Obviously she thought so, her lips kept twitching, but she couldn't utter any words.

   Seeing this, Yusuke Kato shook his head, put the other party's lunch box on the handrail of the stairs, and said something like this.

   "You know the truth of the matter, and I don't care... But there is one thing I hope you will keep in your heart."

   "Take it as a piece of advice." He glanced at Hishida with cold eyes that did not contain the slightest emotion, "Don't mess with me again, or it won't be so easy next time, senpai."

   At this moment, as if he was being targeted by some kind of ferocious beast, Hishida's heart palpitated for a while, and cold sweat flowed from his forehead unconsciously.

   When she finally came back to her senses, the boy had long since disappeared in the stairwell, only the bento on the handrail was standing there, quietly witnessing this scene.

   A sense of powerlessness hit her body, and she couldn't help leaning on the wall and sitting on the ground. Holding his knees with both hands, he didn't say a word for a long time.

   Then, Hishida took off his glasses and buried his face in his arms. Along with the sound of the flowing wind, a small whimper was mixed in, and he didn't know where he would fly.

  …
