"Ah!" Uchiha Hiko suddenly sighed inwardly. When he turned to look at Shizuku, he caught sight of the view before her and hurriedly pulled the White Shinigami Uniform higher, his face flushing red.
The sunlight was just right—warm but not scorching, like the blazing sun in winter, bringing warmth without making one feel unbearably hot.
A complicated look appeared in Uchiha Hiko's eyes—pity, confusion, or perhaps affection?
After crying for a while, Shizuku looked up and met Uchiha Hiko's eyes. "I thought you weren't going to come save me."
"I thought you'd been lying to me all along!"
Uchiha Hiko opened his mouth awkwardly. "How could I not come save you?" At that moment, he did not dare meet Shizuku's gaze at all!
Her eyes were so pure, so gentle, completely unlike the fierce impression she had given when they first met! She was so obedient that he could not help wanting to pull her fiercely into his arms!
"Ah!" Only then did Shizuku realize that aside from Uchiha Hiko's White Shinigami Uniform cloak, she had nothing else on.
Her face instantly turned crimson, and she leaped down from Uchiha Hiko.
Yet whether from excessive nervousness or embarrassment, she failed to steady herself or use the power in her body the instant she jumped down.
She fell straight down. The wind lifted the white Shinigami uniform, and a chill ran over Shizuku's body as she cried out loudly!!!
"Don't look!!!"
Uchiha Hiko turned his head away, then suddenly realized that if this girl fell straight down like that, she would get hurt!
He shook his head helplessly at Shizuku, who was nearly at the ground yet still had not reacted.
Diving downward, Uchiha Hiko rushed straight toward Shizuku. At this point, he could not be bothered with rules like men
