179.

[Ahhh, I'm so glad Toru is okay. I cried out loud. I was really afraid that the old thief would just kill him in the plot. After all, dying on his birthday is a lifelong pain.]

[Then I might just go to your house with a kitchen knife in hand...]

[Hiss, why did the anesthesia fail? This sudden cough clearly means he has woken up. Chiyodani Toru is really good at pretending to sleep.]

[My old habit came back. I was so angry and distressed. I really wanted to catch him and put him in a small dark room!!]

[Wuwuwu, I can do this in the small dark room (crying with my hands covering my mouth)]

[Maybe I'm used to the pain? Whether it's my own disease or a sympathy I got from my early childhood, if it lasts for a long time, I'll become resistant to the anesthetic (lightly)]

[Wuwuwu, stop using the knife!! The kid is stupid! I was still grinning when I saw the police academy group sticking together. Are you all microscopes?]

[By the way, have you noticed that Zao only discovered Toru's existence after seeing the photo, but Toru had always known about Zao's existence.

Doesn't this prove that empathy is completely one-sided? No wonder his parents wanted to send him away... I was blindly abroad, and I guess I also participated in a lot of surgeries and research.]

[Oh shit! He’s only twenty! ! ]

[Today is the end of the 21st! I wish Chiyotani Toru a peaceful life and reunite with his sister soon (Little Cat Prayer.jpg)]

[srds, the police academy team, quickly beat up this bastard who just finished surgery and pretended to be asleep and still wanted to die! ! ! ]

Although the police academy team usually works together, they have distinct personalities and naturally make different choices when faced with different things. It is very common for many problems to arise along the way.

Especially Furuya Rei and Matsuda Jinpei. After the two had a fight on the first night of school, their relationship has been out of control. Even though their relationship has improved a lot, they still awkwardly oppose each other all day long and enjoy making each other angry.

But there was only one thing they agreed on:

The young man froze in the middle of the road, turned around and looked at them in surprise. There was no confusion in his dark eyes as if he had just woken up from surgery, but rather more of a sense of guilt in the face of their sudden appearance.

His left arm was wrapped in a bandage and plaster and he could not move, but his right hand was still stretched forward. Because the infusion tube was stretched straight, the infusion needle that had just been placed by the nurse had a tendency to move outward, causing the blood to flow back to a certain extent.

I don't know if it was because of the pain he realized belatedly, but Chiyodani Toru visibly gasped and swallowed. His fair face puffed up involuntarily, making him look even more innocent and weak.

Fūya Rei took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, walked over quickly and pressed him directly on the bed.

Through the thin hospital gown, he could feel the young man's cold and thin arms. Fōtani Rei pulled the quilt over him with a stern face, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the person behind him.

"What did you want to do just now? Do you know what's happening to you now?"

Matsuda Jinpei rushed forward, thinking that he couldn't disturb the others' rest, so he forced himself to lower his voice. However, the gnashing of teeth in his voice could not hide his desire to beat someone up.

It was like a series of criticism sessions. Several people were completely unable to remain calm when facing their peers who had been doing this since they woke up. They wanted to vent all the panic that was about to jump out of their chests on the person in front of them with words.

"You went too far this time, Toru." Date Kou looked at him deeply. "The hospital almost issued a critical illness notice. Did you know that you were just that close to bleeding to death?"

"Don't talk about that. I really want to know how you could close the door to the rooftop?"

"I called hundreds of times but you didn't answer?"

Kenji Hagiwara and Kagemitsu Morofushi stood in front of the bed, turning off the lights above their heads, without even smiling.

If the students in the police academy saw this scene, the rumors that had finally been quelled would probably become more rampant again.

The black-haired young man tried to close his eyes as if to pretend to be dead, but under the scorching gazes of several people, he opened them reluctantly, revealing a pitiful look.

"You guys..." Chiyotani Toru's voice was still hoarse and weak. He hesitated and whispered, "Why did you suddenly appear?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang almost laughed angrily: "You are still asking us now? What were you going to do just now?"

God knows how many people finally decided the winner by playing rock-paper-scissors and planned to follow them one by one.

As a result, when I went over to take a look, I found that the young man sat up suddenly as if he was in a nightmare, and his eyes were not even focused on the things in front of him. He turned over in panic and touched the cabinet next to him, as if there was something he had to find.

His movements were so fast, as if something was chasing him, and his posture was so skillful, as if he was sure that thing would appear on the table.

Zhu Fu Jingguang subconsciously moved his gaze to the cabinet.

The small black cabinet had three layers of drawers, but on the top there was only a vase without flowers, a stack of upside-down disposable cups, a box of tissues, and a small calendar. It looked like there was nothing worth taking.

"I'm not planning on doing anything."

Even though the effect of the anesthetic had worn off and the pain from the wound was coming back, Chiyodani Toru didn't pay any attention to his own body. Instead, he focused his attention on them, and his first reaction was to question their existence.

Zhu Fu Jingguang could only barely see a few things from the thin body that was shaking involuntarily due to pain.

He still feels pain.

Even though he had just woken up, cold sweat caused by the pain once again covered his forehead.

Even in this situation, he wanted to sit up and talk, but Furiya Rei's hand firmly pinned him to the bed, making him unable to move.

Combined with what Chiyodani Toru said just now - why did he think they wouldn't be here?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Morofushi Kagemitsu's face turned gloomy. He shuddered when he saw that even Hagiwara Kenji, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but stick close to Date Kou.

Not to mention the person who is being targeted by his low mood.

Chiyoya Hayato was confused.

Just "pop", very quickly, I was surrounded and had no power to resist at all.

Where on earth did these people come from? !

She took a breath and almost choked on her own saliva. After coughing twice, she answered honestly, "I want to check the time."

"Just, take a look..." She whispered, "I didn't expect you to show up so suddenly."

"It's okay, it depends on the time. You're not in a hurry to reincarnate." Matsuda Jinpei said unhappily, "What if the wound bursts?"

Even as he said this, he took out his cell phone and looked at it: "It's 11:30 now."

Today hasn't even passed yet, but she finally caught up.

Chiyotani Saori heaved a sigh of relief and put away her guilty conscience.

Although she learned from the comics that the police academy team originally had a plan, it now seems that no one will agree to let her leave the hospital to celebrate her birthday.

In conclusion...can she expect a happy birthday later?

Speaking of which, Chiyoya Saori has never celebrated her birthday properly since her parents left. Although the Kuroba family and Hazuka Yuto have asked her about it, she always felt that it would trouble the elders too much and chose to decline.

The boy Hei Yu Kaito thought that she didn't like birthdays, so he was very cautious every time the day came, for fear of bringing up her sad memories.

In fact, Chiyotani Saori just felt it was unnecessary.

But from a friend's perspective, it seems a little different.

But before that...she felt she was a little bit dangerous.

"Does it hurt?"

Furutani Rei took a piece of paper from the side and helped her wipe the cold sweat off her forehead. His purple-gray eyes were slightly narrowed, as if he was still observing her micro-expressions.

Chiyoya Saori blinked her eyes and smiled at the group in a flattering way: "Actually... it doesn't hurt that much."

The painkillers worked. Although her body reacted to the pain, she herself could not feel it at all. But in this case, saying it didn't hurt seemed to be the same as not saying it at all.

She felt that she was in a difficult situation. If she told the truth, she would be considered a liar, but if she lied, she would feel guilty. So she had to choose a word to compromise.

But now it seems that these guys don't need Chiyoya Saori's answer at all.

The faces of the people standing there became even more sullen; they were not pleased by her at all.

Chiyoya Saori couldn't help swallowing again and felt that it would be a bit difficult for her to hear "Happy Birthday".

Kenji Hagiwara took some water from a cup beside him, walked carefully to her right side, put his arm around her neck, and put the water to her mouth.

"Have a drink before we talk." He sighed, "Oigawa Arata is fine. He has been taken away by the police. The rest of the matter has been handed over to the police. Just take a good rest. Got it?"

Chiyoya Saori nodded madly while drinking the water and almost choked herself on it.

No one asked her why she looked at the time, and she herself was not sure why she was looking forward to her birthday. After all, judging from Chiyotani Toru's thinking, he probably couldn't think of the police academy's plan.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. The person lying down drank water intermittently with anxiety in his eyes, while the person standing up was filled with anger and relief, and was so overwhelmed by his emotions that he couldn't speak for a moment.

Chiyodani Toru was still able to talk to them vividly, and the thrill of the day seemed to have passed so easily.

All his emotions were still hidden under the smile on his face. Even if he didn't say it, everyone knew that if he encountered such a situation again next time, he would save people without hesitation.

In fact, it wasn't just him, everyone present had this realization.

As companions and friends, they sincerely hope that Chiyodani Toru will be fine and not be on the verge of life and death every other day. The nurses who come to the hospital have become familiar faces.

At this time, the nurse finally came with a group of doctors, and several people were driven out of the ward without hesitation. The last thing they could see was the stiff expression of the person wrapped in a white coat lying on the bed.

It was like a lamb suddenly surrounded by a group of wild beasts. Its desire to survive instantly exploded, but it could do nothing but blink its eyes hard, trying to ask its companions for help.

It's actually quite funny.

Then they turned around and left the ward without hesitation.

Standing in the corridor, the five people looked at each other, some of them were still unable to react.

Hagiwara Kenji sighed: "Toru's speed of regaining consciousness is the first time I've seen it."

"It's not a good thing that the anesthetic is ineffective early." Furiya Ling said unhappily, "That guy has developed drug resistance after going to the hospital so many times."

Zhu Fu Jingguang twitched his lips: "This shouldn't be the case...right?"

Many people may not experience anesthesia more than a few times in their lifetime. Chiyodani Toru is only 20 years old this year. He must have gone through a lot to not be able to cure this.

"Next time, just deal with him by paralyzing an elephant." Matsuda Jinpei said darkly, "This guy is still too energetic - he should be beaten to death!"

Date Kou rubbed his brows and said, "Then everyone needs to work harder in the fighting class. Now only Zero can fight Toru to a draw, right?"

Matsuda Jinpei's expression froze, and he immediately said, "If it weren't for the fighting class, I wouldn't necessarily lose in a normal fight!"

"Come on." Furiya Ling glanced at him coldly and continued, "After all, Toru has woken up. Let's go buy him some blood-replenishing soup later. It seems that everyone hasn't eaten yet, right?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang nodded: "We can take turns eating later. We still need to take care of him until his injury is healed."

Having said that, even though they were given special permission not to go back to school today, they still had to go to class as usual.

Several people couldn't help but rub their brows with a headache, and could only hope that nothing unexpected would happen in such a strict hospital environment.

As for the hospital shooting that happened earlier—it’s like winning the lottery if you encounter something like this once!

"Next..."

They looked at each other and immediately felt a tacit understanding.

Kenji Hagiwara walked to the chair next to him and opened the bag on it, revealing a pile of angular gift boxes.

"That guy can't eat cake anyway, so I didn't bring any snacks you made." He said, "Turned out the gifts - is there anything else to prepare?"

Jinpei Matsuda stood there, pressing the volume on his cell phone, turning it up to a level that could not be heard in the room. The clear tune of "Happy Birthday to You" came out from the phone.

"It doesn't feel like a birthday." He smacked his lips in annoyance. "It doesn't feel like a birthday. Hagi, you should have taken out the birthday cake I made. Even if you can't eat it, it's still a ceremonial thing to just look at it!"

"Just take mine."

Fūya Rei rolled his eyes at his ulterior motive.

Morofushi Jingguang chuckled, took out his notebook, tore off a page, and started drawing a cake based on the picture on his phone.

Furuya Reminato was beside him, instructing him: "Hiro, can you draw a slime on it?"

"I brought a blue pen." Yi Dahang took out a pen from his pocket and handed it to him, saying with some emotion, "I finally caught up."

Hagiwara Kenji put his arm around Matsuda Jinpei's shoulder and smiled in a promotional way, "Guess what expression that guy will have next?"

"That idiot probably never expected that we would do something like this, right?" Matsuda Jinpei complained, "He'll probably be shocked."

"Indeed." Hagiwara Kenji stroked his chin, "Let's see if we can take some black history photos when the time comes."

…

The doctor didn't talk for long. After all, it was already late at night, and even if he needed to study something, he didn't need to be in such a hurry. He just prescribed some more painkillers for Chiyoya Sayori and told her to take the medicine on time.

Chiyoya Saori expressed some helplessness as she watched a group of mermaids rush out and the ward returned to its original quiet state.

I don’t know how much time is left. I wonder if those guys are so angry that they have completely forgotten about her birthday!

Thinking of this possibility, Chiyodani Saori felt like crying but had no tears.

Suddenly, the light in the room was turned off with a snap, as if haunted. The door of the ward opened, but no one came in.

Chiyoya Hayato was startled and subconsciously tried to sit up with her hands on her hands, but unexpectedly a loud "bang" was heard the next second.

The five men rolled in in a well-trained manner, as if they were doing cross-country training, and went straight to her bed, pressing something directly against her chin.

"Don't move." Matsuda Jinpei said in a vicious voice, "You have been kidnapped, now close your eyes."

Chiyoya Saori was almost frightened to the point of sitting up by their unconventional actions. She closed her eyes and couldn't help but complain, "What are you guys up to?"

Isn't it just a matter of saying happy birthday?

In the next second, a familiar melody appeared in the room. Five people's high and low voices rang out along with the melody, and they hummed along with the tune somewhat awkwardly.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

"Remember to make a wish, idiot!" Jinpei Matsuda heard a voice in the middle of singing, and he suddenly stopped and directed his attack at someone lying dead on the bed, "Don't just stare blankly."

Chiyoya Sayori didn't expect that under such circumstances, they still insisted on the sense of ceremony, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

She closed her eyes completely and made a silent wish.

The song faded away and the voice stopped, but the melody remained. As the lights turned on, the light penetrated through the thin eyelids and entered the pupils, and Chiyotani Sayori opened her eyes.

She squinted her eyes and before she could say anything, she found that Furuya Remo came over and pointed his finger at her forehead without hesitation.

“Bang!”

A crisp sound came from the melon seeds on the head, and you knew it was definitely cooked.

Chiyotani Hayato was stunned: "You——"

Before he could finish his words, Furuya Rei simply stepped aside, allowing Morofushi Kagemitsu who was behind him to come up and directly press down on Chiyodani Sayori's shoulders.

The brown-haired young man smiled at her and extended his hand without hesitation.

After him came Matsuda Jinpei, followed by Date Kou and Hagiwara Kenji. None of them held back this time and hit her in a harsh way, avoiding any injuries.

Chiyogaya Saori was pinned down and unable to move: “?!”

This happy birthday is nothing like what she imagined!

"Okay, last step."

Morofushi Kagemitsu looked at the black-haired young man whose forehead was flushed and whose expression was still dazed, and took out the cake he had drawn with a sigh of relief and placed it in front of Chiyoya Sayori.

The cake was painted with a black fountain pen as the base, and six blue slimes were spread on top. The slimes were stuck to each other and all had cute Q expressions drawn on them. The slime on the top had 21 hairs. A closer look revealed that it was a three-layer deluxe version.

"It's your birthday cake tonight, eat it."

He smiled and whispered the devil.

Chiyoya Hayori: "???"

It’s someone’s birthday, with sweet and delicious cakes and blessings from relatives and friends.

For her birthday, five gorilla-style brain-destroying blows and a paper cake that can only be looked at but not eaten?

This doesn't make sense!

The five people looked at her completely dumbfounded expression, and at first they couldn't help laughing, and then they leaned over and hugged her one by one without hesitation.

"But I still want to say it - Toru, happy birthday."

“We are so proud of you.”
