Chapter 1.14

Chapter 1 — The boundary line, the marriage between a girl and a wolf . Part 14

There was a big uproar in the entire school, so sixth period became self-study .

I had nothing better to do so I just gazed listlessly at the ambulance that was carrying Budworm . My appearance was quite peculiar as I was still wearing my sports uniform but no one said anything .

Half of the students were in the rear side of the classroom, consoling Mouse and asking things out of curiosity .

And only a few of the most serious students were studying by themselves .

Not a single one of them spoke to

me, but that was to be expected .

I calmly crossed my legs and stroked the window glass with my fingertips .

An invisible wall .

After classes had ended, I had to be the one to explain what had happened there in place of the female teacher, who had turned almost hysterical .

I was sitting on the leather sofa in the principal’s office, answering the inquiries made by the principal and the police officer sitting in front of me as honestly as I could .

“I don’t completely know what happened, just that a large dog dropped in suddenly and attacked the two of them . ”

“I wonder why you were left unharmed

unharmed though . ” The young officer with a gentle appearance casually asked .

“I don’t know,” I answered again . “It must have been some sort of coincidence . ”

He didn’t ask anything else after that .

For me, that was the most honest reply that I could give .

Heading back home, I was once again walking along the familiar road situated at the border between the forest and the city .

I was alone, walking on the asphalt illuminated by the few city lights that managed to infiltrate past the fences of the houses .

The entrance to the toilet had been restricted, so in the end I wasn’t able to recover

to recover my uniform and was still in my sports uniform .

Truth be told, I didn’t like my current appearance . It wasn’t a matter of whether it suited me or not, I simply didn’t like it . It was really irritating, and I brushed my hair away for the umpteenth time .

The chilly autumn wind blew pleasantly on my nape .

I walked, stopped for a bit, then walked again .

Together with my pace, a second pair of footsteps stopped, then started again . It was a really conspicuous way to tail someone .

After this repeated for a few times, I was tired of whoever it was .

I was .

I turned around and called out .

“Do you need something?”

It was Mouse, alone . On her small braided face, there was panic mixed with invitation .

Perhaps because it was cold, or perhaps because she was afraid, her thin legs were shaking ever so slightly .

“Uhh, umm, yeah, err…”

She seemed to be looking for something as her eyes darted here and there, continuously muttering senseless words . After two… three minutes, she finally got to the point .

“Tsukagi-san, err…” Her fear increased . “Umm, where’s the dog?”

“Dog? As you can see, there’s no dog around here . ”

“What I mean is…that dog, it was yours, wasn’t it?”
