Chapter 53 Chapter 53 Record Breaking
Momozawa Airi used to live with Matsuda Jinpei, so she naturally knew that he was not a morning person.
Sometimes, Jinpei Matsuda would close his eyes and subconsciously stretch his arms around her waist.
Airi Momozawa's early morning ritual, which she had struggled to get up due to her survival instinct, was interrupted, and she collapsed again in an instant.
...So, since she was not very determined, she would basically fall asleep in Jinpei Matsuda's arms again in a daze.
Then, he was woken up by Jinpei Matsuda who was slowly waking up at the right time to get up.
"Wake up." Poking her face.
“…Zzzzz” He turned over unhappily.
"It's time to get up. You have classes this morning." He poked her face again.
“…I’m sleepy.” Hiding under the quilt.
"...Aren't you studying hard?" He pinched her face gently.
“……!” He suddenly opened his eyes.
...Another outcome would be that Jinpei Matsuda picked her up from the bed and ruthlessly stuffed her into the bathroom.
Therefore, when Momozawa Airi learned about Jinpei Matsuda's daily routine after entering the police academy, she was shocked.
Jinpei Matsuda now wakes up earlier every day than the first uncle who sets up a vegetable stall near her home.
Usually, when she slowly got up and washed up at home, Jinpei Matsuda had already finished his sweaty morning jogging training on the playground.
“…”
Thinking of how Jinpei Matsuda now has to get up early every day to run and train, Momozawa Airi couldn't help but be amazed.
The police academy seems to have a lot of physical training, which feels very tiring.
But it seems... her boyfriend is pretty happy in the police academy?
Jinpei Matsuda seems to have made a lot of new friends and hangs out with them almost every day.
When Momozawa Airi made a video call to him one time, she vaguely saw several figures flashing by in the background of the screen.
I didn't see clearly.
All you can see is a very blurry and dynamic series of "standing up - opening the door - closing the door - corridor - opening the door" movements.
It seemed that the moment Matsuda Jinpei answered her call, he returned to his dormitory at a speed that was almost invisible.
With the sound of the dormitory door closing, the lively male chatter was isolated outside Jinpei Matsuda's room.
I could still vaguely make out the words, "I actually beat Xiao Zhenping in arm wrestling for the first time ever—even though he withdrew midway, it still counts as a win—"
Momozawa Airi: "..."
Oh wow.
There is one more happy second-year graduate student in the world.
*
In the police academy dormitory.
Recalling the figure that had just rushed out of the door like lightning, Zhu Fujingguang, who was still in the waiting area for arm wrestling, felt a little dazed.
"Is there something urgent, Matsuda?"
He was very considerate and worried about his colleague: "Could something have happened...? But just now, when Matsuda saw the phone, he seemed to be smiling..."
He had been friends with Matsuda Jinpei for a while, but Morifushi Kagemitsu had never seen him smile like this.
It can be considered that there are some——
A gentle... smile.
Hagiwara Kenji, an insider, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Judging from the way Jinpei stood up so quickly, he must have gone to call his girlfriend."
Zhu Fujingguang: “?”
Date Hang: “?”
Another insider, Rei Furuya: “.”
Hagiwara Kenji: "Jin Ping has a girlfriend~ She's a super cute girl~"
Zhu Fu Jingguang: "Huh?"
Date Hang: “Huh??”
Jianggu Ling: "..."
Zhu Fujingguang was puzzled and turned his head to look at the calm face of Furuya Ling: "Zero, do you know this too?"
"..." Furuya Ling nodded slowly, his expression subtle, "Ah, I've met them both by chance before."
Even though he has known the truth for a while, Rei Furuya still feels a little shocked.
Hagiwara Kenji straightened his sleeves, which he had casually rolled up for the arm wrestling match, and said casually, "They've known each other for several years. I was a bit shocked when I first found out."
"I'm used to it, and you should get used to it in the future too."
Kenji Hagiwara nodded with a smile, suddenly took out a lollipop from somewhere and put it into his mouth.
Zhu Fujingguang: “?”
Jianggu Ling: "?"
Date Hang: “?”
Get used to what...?
Kenji Hagiwara looked at his three stunned classmates calmly, raised the corners of his lips, and his voice was a little unclear because of the candy in his mouth.
"Come on, keep going. Who's going to break up now?—"
*
After a period of observation and thinking, Momozawa Airi very considerately chose a suitable time to call Matsuda Jinpei.
She very carefully made a schedule of both parties' availability and compared the time periods one by one.
It wouldn't interfere with his training time, nor would it take up his time playing with friends, and it would also fit in with her free time in the evening.
It was around eight o'clock in the evening.
Momozawa Airi happily circled the eight o'clock time period with a red pen.
It’s decided to be you!
…
First day of adjusting your calling schedule.
Momozawa Airi, who had just finished taking a shower, stared at the notes on the screen for a while, then suddenly picked up a mirror to look at herself.
After confirming that she looked good, she leaned against the doll on the bedside and slowly pressed the call button.
After a few rings, the call was connected.
"you--"
Momozawa Airi cleared her throat and looked up at the screen.
After just one glance, her voice froze.
Smooth jawline.
Rolling Adam's apple.
Sweat slowly dripped down the line of my neck.
…
Jinpei Matsuda lowered his head slightly, looked at her with lowered eyes, and greeted her casually.
"Did you just take a shower?"
His voice was a little hoarse, and he was even breathing softly.
Momozawa Airi, whose hair was still a little damp: "..."
Why! Is! This! Perspective!
This! Kind! Of! A ...
…
Momozawa Airi held up her phone in confusion, having completely forgotten what she wanted to say.
After a long while, she secretly swallowed her saliva and spoke haltingly.
"You...you you you you what are you doing..."
...Why aren't you wearing a shirt?
Momozawa Airi hadn't seen Matsuda Jinpei so frank in a long time, and her face instinctively turned red.
The thin blush spread to her ears at an extremely fast speed.
“…”
——It’s not like I haven’t seen it before! What’s there to be shy about?
Momozawa Airi was secretly preparing herself mentally while her eyes drifted around.
...Finally, I just stayed glued to the screen.
"Plank."
As if he felt that the sweat that had been lingering at the ends of his hair for a long time without dripping was a bit annoying, Matsuda Jinpei shook his head gently, and the slightly damp curls swayed with his movement.
Talking disrupted his regular breathing rhythm.
Matsuda Jinpei paused, his Adam's apple moving slightly. "When you called, I was just about to break my own record."
The implication was that he took advantage of the record-breaking opportunity to do a plank while answering the phone.
“…”
Even through the screen, Momozawa Airi seemed to feel the overwhelming male hormones.
The pair of clear blue eyes that looked straight at her seemed to be tinged with a hint of moisture.
She instinctively wanted to move back.
The doll that was leaning against the bed had been slowly sliding down the bed, and her shifting sitting position had obviously accelerated its falling trend.
Click.
The doll fell to the ground.
Without anything to lean on, Airi Momozawa suddenly fell onto the bed with a thud.
Momozawa Airi: "..."
She held her cell phone high, lying on her back and looking at Jinpei Matsuda on the screen.
This perspective... No, something's wrong.
Momozawa Airi suddenly sat up straight, sitting upright on the bed: "Then, how long will it take you to break the record..."
“…One and a half minutes.”
Matsuda Jinpei replied softly.
Momozawa Airi: "Well, then I can still witness it..."
In order not to affect Matsuda Jinpei's performance, Momozawa Airi chose to spend this minute and a half calmly and steadily.
silence.
silence.
silence.
…
How can I be calm while listening to the panting coming from the phone? Ahhhhh——
Momozawa Airi forced herself to remain calm and counted the time in her mind to one and a half minutes.
“…One and a half minutes have passed!”
She held up her phone with one hand and patted her arm with the other.
Make a popping sound.
To round it off, it's applause.
"Congratulations on breaking the record."
Momozawa Airi licked the corner of her lips unconsciously.
And on the screen, Jinpei Matsuda still maintained that perspective and that posture——
Still in plank position.
Momozawa Airi: "?"
She leaned closer to her phone, thinking that Jinpei Matsuda was so absorbed in his plank work that he didn't hear her.
"It's time already."
Momozawa Airi gave a serious reminder.
Matsuda Jinpei responded, "Yeah."
Momozawa Airi: "...Then why don't you rest?"
Even while maintaining this posture, Matsuda Jinpei continued in a leisurely tone, "Of course I want to see if I can set a new record."
Momozawa Airi: "..."
*
After chatting for a few more sentences, Matsuda Jinpei groaned, suddenly loosened his arms, and his tense body slowly relaxed.
He picked up his phone, sat casually on the ground, and exhaled: "How long?"
Momozawa Airi reported a very perfect number.
She paused and pretended to be calm as she looked at Jinpei Matsuda on the screen.
Her boyfriend might have forgotten or something, but he hasn't put on his shirt yet.
Momozawa Airi took a furtive look.
...This muscle line is so beautiful.
Momozawa Airi took another furtive look.
Wow, the arm line is also very good...
"What are you looking at?"
Jinpei Matsuda blinked slowly and raised his voice to ask.
"..." Momozawa Airi was suddenly caught and instinctively avoided his gaze, "Nothing!"
She pursed her lips and forced a change of subject.
"...Zhen Ping, is it my illusion?"
"It seems...your physical fitness is much stronger than before you came to the police academy."
Momozawa Airi thought of the very long duration she had just recorded and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Are you usually very tired from training?"
Hearing this, Matsuda Jinpei raised his eyebrows and replied in a relaxed tone, "Not bad."
The physical training at the police academy is quite intense, but it is relatively easy for him who exercises regularly.
And professional training can indeed improve physical fitness.
Momozawa Airi blinked her eyes and said, "So, do you exercise on your own at this time every day?"
Matsuda Jinpei pondered for a moment, thinking that Momozawa Airi might want to call at another time: "Yes, actually I—"
His words "Actually, I'm free at 7 o'clock" were interrupted by Momozawa Airi's words with a hint of excitement.
"Then let's call at this time next time."
Momozawa Airi pretended to casually raise her hand to adjust her hair, her tone very serious.
Her eyes once again secretly glued to Matsuda Jinpei.
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Momozawa Airi changed the subject again: "Will you be able to go out this week?"
Matsuda Jinpei nodded: "Yes, it's been a month."
Momozawa Airi was a little frustrated: "Ah... I don't have to work this weekend, and I wanted to bring you a love bento that I made myself."
"Now that we can go out, we can go out and play on the weekend. We don't need my lunch box anymore."
She lay on the bed, holding the phone upright with both hands, feeling a little depressed.
"...I need it." Matsuda Jinpei paused and looked at her.
There was a hint of an awkward smile in his clear eyes.
After a while, he added: "You can go for a picnic."
Momozawa Airi: "Hehe, you're right =v=, then we can eat lunch together!"
Matsuda Jinpei nodded cheerfully, saying lazily, "Okay."
Momozawa Airi's brain was working quickly: "What does Senior 2 like to eat? I'll make some for him too - and your friends too."
Then she also sent some food to Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu, after all, it was rare for her to go to the police academy =v=.
I'm here.jpg
Momozawa Airi quickly made calculations in her mind.
"..." Matsuda Jinpei paused, then leaned back calmly, his back against the wall, "Hagi likes to eat in the cafeteria, and so do the others."
Momozawa Airi: "?"
She was stunned for a moment and commented, "What a unique hobby."
Jinpei Matsuda curled the corners of his lips righteously, but did not respond.
Momozawa Airi thought about it and readily changed her plan: "Then I'll bring them some snacks - buy a lot of snacks so you can share them."
"Well... buy more of your favorite food—"
She felt that her selfishness seemed a little too obvious, and she buried the lower half of her face in the quilt embarrassedly, leaving only a pair of bright eyes exposed.
Then he added, trying to hide his mistake: "After all, I don't know what they like to eat...but I know what you like to eat."
Jinpei Matsuda suppressed the joy that was faintly rising in his heart and nodded calmly.
"It doesn't matter."
Matsuda Jinpei paused, remembering the group of classmates who often complained that "the cafeteria is too ordinary and there are no delicious snacks in the canteen", and added without blushing.
"They don't usually eat snacks."
Momozawa Airi blinked her eyes and exclaimed in admiration: "Wow, your peers all have such healthy and wholesome lifestyles."
Matsuda Jinpei nodded calmly: "Yes."
