After a long struggle, the three of them leaned back and collapsed on their seats, waving their hands weakly, "Okay, okay, Kagome, just smile normally, you're not bad looking anyway, you look good no matter how you smile."

"So this morning, Hojo-kun and I were unhappy because of this. Love really makes people blind. Hojo-kun is so miserable~ Kagome, you need to be more confident."

Kagome rubbed her face with both hands and nodded obediently.

"Yeah, I know, Hojo-kun... I will apologize to him."

Seeing his obedient appearance, Yuka couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if there was such a person chasing me~"

"Yes." Kagome put down her hands and said seriously, "Yuka is very beautiful, has a good personality, and many people like you." When he graduated from junior high school, he remembered that Yuka seemed to have been confessed to.

"Huh? Huh? Really?! You're not lying, are you?" Yuka straightened up with his eyes shining, "Who is it? Who is it? Is it from our class?"

When Yuka heard the gossip about himself, he immediately became excited.

Kagome smiled slightly, "Keep it a secret."

"Ah..." He became depressed again.

"Hey, are boys so reserved when pursuing someone? I really don't mind being more direct."

Yuka stared at Kagome, with envy in his tone, "Can't there be more bold and straightforward people like Kagome?"

Kagome shrugged and comforted her by example, "I was rejected."

"Uh." Yuka thought about it and it made sense.

The four of them talked about some skills in pursuing people. It was getting dark, and there were exams tomorrow. Kagome ended the topic with Yuka and others with reluctance.

He gained a lot, and the experience that he couldn't feel when he was a female body, well, it was normal. When he was a girl, he never thought that one day he would pursue a person of the same sex.

After returning home and having dinner, he talked about some exams with his grandparents.

Late at night, after taking a bath, he came out of the bathroom with wet hair dripping with water, which fell on his clothes and spread out in a ball.

Kagome's mind was not on her hair at all. She casually pulled a towel and put it on her head, and focused on writing something on the table.

"Smile more, keep a proper distance, and consider Kikyo's feelings more..."

The pen tip paused.

"Kikyo's feelings." Kagome's expression was erratic for a moment, "It seems that I have never talked to Kikyo about her..." thoughts about me.

Because I was afraid of hearing something I didn't want to hear.

The warm light on the table illuminated the paper, and a drop of water from the end of her hair dripped on her fingers. The cold touch gradually calmed Kagome's irritable heart.

"Okay, let's talk about it."

It won't be too bad, Kagome didn't want to give up anyway, as Yuka and the others said, only understanding can go deeper.

He may... never understand Kikyo, relying on everything he has experienced in the future, he thinks he understands Kikyo.

However, Kagome realized that he was the only one running ahead, and Kikyo had just been resurrected. She had just woken up from a nightmare and was about to face an irreversible situation...

Kagome's fingers curled up and clenched the pen, breathing heavily.

Kikyo.

He added a burden to Kikyo.

Giving gifts, confessing, escaping... Every courage was tolerated by Kikyo.

But he interrupted Kikyo's words out of fear and rejected Kikyo's idea.

Kagome's heart was heavy and her lungs had some difficulty breathing. He stood up and opened the window to let the evening breeze blow into the room.

Fresh air rushed into her nose, and Kagome looked in the direction of the Bone-Eating Well, with a slight ripple in her eyes.

Don't panic, don't rush.

Meeting now will only end in a shaky way. Kagome's eyelashes trembled slightly, hiding the haste in her eyes.

Kagome shook her head and slapped her cheeks hard, "I'll go there after the exam. What's the rush?"

After thinking for a while, he took out the bottle of soil from Kikyo's grave from his backpack. Since he couldn't see her, he could take a part of her body and have a look.

Facing the moonlight, Kagome held up the small glass bottle. The grave soil was like ink under the night sky.

With a slight turn of her wrist, the grave soil inside turned smoothly. It was not as thick as ordinary soil, but like... like, like Kikyo's hair.

Kagome's heart skipped a beat.

The dark room, the sleeping face, the eyelashes that could only be seen when approaching, the hair that the tip of the nose touched, the silence of the four eyes looking at each other...

Several images quickly jumped in her mind, and Kagome's ears received the feedback from her brain a beat later, and gradually became hot.

Kagome rubbed her ears and muttered softly, "What's there to be ashamed of? It's just that I was caught...ah! Don't think about it, go to sleep!"

Even the evening breeze couldn't calm her down. Kagome turned and went into the house. Her back looked like she was running away in a panic.

The lights on the second floor were turned off, and the night was dotted with stars. The modern starry sky is slightly inferior to that of the Warring States period.One step ahead.

Kikyo looked up at the stars. Inuyasha sat on the branch of a big tree beside her. He put his hands behind his head and leaned against the tree trunk.

Up and down, Kikyo glanced at Inuyasha on the treetop. The red figure was interspersed among the green leaves. Kikyo's eyes were hazy. This scene... was familiar after a long time.

However, soon, the whole peaceful scene was destroyed by Inuyasha's noisy mouth.

"Damn it, why did Kagome take so long to go back? Isn't one day for the exam enough? I think he's just being lazy. Do you know that the more days the Four Souls Jade is out, the more trouble it will cause? There are eight pieces! All in the hands of that stinky wolf. Isn't Kagome in a hurry?!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Inuyasha looked down with Tessaiga in his arms, and said indignantly, "Kikyo! If he doesn't come tomorrow, shall we go find him?"

"..."

"You two are reincarnations, there must be a way to make that well hand over the people, right Kikyo?"

Kikyo was silent. The Bone-Eating Well... She had never gone down there. Before she became a shrine maiden, she knew that the well could devour the corpses of monsters. There were also curious humans who jumped in, but they got out the same way they entered, just like ordinary abandoned wells.

Only Kagome was special.

Inuyasha's question... Kikyo closed her eyes and said in a calm voice, "Inuyasha."

"Don't block the well."

The dog's ears twitched twice quickly, and Inuyasha smacked his lips and looked away angrily, "...If you don't want to go, then don't go."

It was quiet for only a few minutes. Coral and Miroku, riding on Mica, came from a distance, and Inuyasha saw them at a glance.

"Finally back."

Inuyasha jumped down from the tree dissatisfied, "Why did it take a whole day to find a monster."

Mica fell, shrank, jumped to the side of the tree and rested, it flew for a day.

"Too good at hiding. Qibao's father also knows the magic to hide his breath. Yunmu's nose can't smell it at all. He can only rely on Qibao's memory to find it."

Miroku looked tired, pounded his shoulders, and looked at Inuyasha impatiently and complained, "I should have let you go, Inuyasha, your nose might be able to smell it."

"Ha, of course my sense of smell... Damn, I'm not a dog!" Inuyasha reacted and was furious.

"Well, it's almost the same."

Miroku scratched his ears and ignored him, and stopped talking. Although Inuyasha would be more restrained with Kikyo, but... if Kagome was there, he could fight back.

"Is Kagome not back yet?" Miroku asked casually.

"It will take three days." Coral put down the flying bone and took off the demon-killing suit. She recalled what Kagome had said, "There are still two days left, but it may be a little later. Kagome said she would go shopping after the exam."

"Oh~ I'm really envious of Kagome's supplies." Miroku touched his chin, thinking of the ramen that can be eaten by soaking in hot water, and sighed, "It's really convenient, ninja food."

"Yeah, it tastes delicious. This time I specifically asked Kagome for more and brought it back for Kohaku and the others to taste."

The two of them communicated as if no one was around.

"Hey, don't ignore me..."

Inuyasha half-opened his eyes, looking resentful.

"Coral."

"Hmm?" Coral stopped and looked at Kikyo blankly. Call her?

Kikyo scanned several people one by one, "Where's Shippo?" There was a little guy missing.

"Ah." Coral explained, "Shippō and his father said he was going back to discuss some things with other monsters of the same race. We didn't ask for details."

Didn't follow.

Kikyo had the answer in her heart.

"Of course he went back to hide." Inuyasha took it for granted, "Shippō is so weak, don't let him run out and be eaten by unknown bastards, and drag others down."

"Inuyasha, Shippō is still young." Miroku was helpless, and the word "drag" was too much.

Shippō was very worry-free along the way, trying to make himself look more reliable, never bothering them, even if he was worried about his father, he never asked them to put down what they were doing and save his father.

Everyone knew it well.
