Sakayanagi Arisu: Is This Enough? / Sakayanagi Arisu Trusts Her Choice
Hashiba Hikaru listened intently, preparing to silently take notes, because the item description of the [Heaven-Sent Medical Kit] contained a passage about the details of the illness; the more details one knew, the better the treatment would be.
"I have a heart condition caused by a congenital defect. I've had this problem since I was a child. I usually need a cane not because there's something wrong with my legs, but because I can't do strenuous activities, which would increase the burden on my heart."
Sakayanagi Arisu spoke calmly, seemingly unconcerned about the cruel twist of fate.
The girl could feel the pity in Hashiba Hikaru's eyes, but from the day she accepted her fate, she would not give up on the world because of her physical defect.
"I see."
Hashiba Hikaru nodded, then continued, "Didn't the Chairman take you to see a doctor? What did those people say?"
"I've seen many doctors, but this kind of congenital defect is not easy to treat. My father has also taken me to many hospitals in foreign countries, but there is still no good solution."
Sakayanagi Arisu comes from a wealthy and influential family, so money is no object, but having money doesn't mean you can cure all diseases in the world.
"Hmm, I understand. Is Classmate Sakayanagi's heartbeat normal normally?"
"It's alright, I just jump a little slowly."
Sakayanagi Arisu nodded calmly.
After writing all these things down, Hashiba Hikaru still seemed to have some doubts.
He felt that simply hearing verbal descriptions wasn't enough; he thought that if he could feel the other person's heartbeat himself, he might be able to get a more accurate answer.
But in that case...
Looking at the thoughtful expression on the boy's face, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't understand why he had such an expression. If it was just out of concern, wouldn't that have been enough?
"Classmate Hashiba asked me so many questions about my health today, do you perhaps have a way to cure me?"
Her tone was somewhat self-deprecating.
"More or less, but I need some more data."
Hashiba Hikaru's gaze was very honest as he stared at Sakayanagi Arisu's pretty face, his tone somewhat ardent.
"... Um?"
Originally, Sakayanagi Arisu was just saying it casually, but she didn't expect Hashiba Hikaru to answer so seriously. Having spent so much time with the boy, the girl knew that his attitude was not a joke.
"Does Classmate Hashiba really possess medical knowledge? Even if she does, the school doesn't have the facilities for her to treat me, does it?"
The silver-haired girl's words carried a hint of inexplicable emotion.
"Hehe, how should I explain this to you..."
Hashiba Hikaru touched her hair, her voice gentle, "I don't know if it will work, but I'm willing to try my best. I just don't know if Classmate Sakayanagi will believe me."
"..."
After thinking for a long time, a smile appeared on Sakayanagi Arisu's lips.
I'm willing to believe you.
Chapter 624 Sakayanagi Arisu: Is this enough?
After finishing her work at the Student Council, in order to reduce the risk of exposure, Hashiba Hikaru decided to take the [Heaven-Sent Medical Kit] to Sakayanagi Arisu's dormitory to ensure everything went smoothly.
Walking down the street, Sakayanagi Arisu couldn't help but feel curious as she looked at Hashiba Hikaru carrying her schoolbag. The backpack looked bulging, as if it contained something.
"Is there any medical equipment in Classmate Hashiba's backpack?"
"That's right, you'll find out soon enough Classmate Sakayanagi."
"Hehe, you really have a lot of secrets. It's making me more and more curious."
Sakayanagi Arisu withdrew her gaze and looked at the other person's profile again.
"Don't be too curious. My goal is to cure you. If I can't, then there's nothing I can do."
Hashiba Hikaru knew that the system's products should be fine, but to avoid any surprises, he lowered the other party's expectations beforehand, so that there would be an unexpected surprise instead of another disappointment.
"Yes, I understand."
Sakayanagi Arisu. In any case, she had already made up her mind that her future life would be firmly tied to Hashiba Hikaru. No matter how many secrets the other person had, the girl would eventually find out.
After entering Sakayanagi Arisu's dormitory room together, Hashiba Hikaru put her schoolbag on the desk and then asked Sakayanagi Arisu to sit on the bed.
"..."
Although she followed instructions, after seeing Hashiba Hikaru lock the bedroom door from the inside, Sakayanagi couldn't help but feel a racing thought. Of course, she was looking forward to intimate contact with the boy, but not in this situation.
"Don't be too nervous. I just want to hear Classmate Sakayanagi heartbeat. It will help me understand your situation better."
Hashiba Hikaru didn't take the first-aid kit out of her bag; instead, she reread the detailed instructions on the lid.
In order to treat the congenital heart defect, in addition to understanding the past experience, he also needs to listen to the other person's real heartbeat. This would probably meet the requirement of "knowing detailed information". Then it depends on what kind of medicine the system will provide.
"Can you listen to the heartbeat?"
After listening to the other party's explanation, Sakayanagi Arisu seemed to understand something. She didn't know why, but even though the other party was just a boy her age, the girl trusted him at this moment.
"Yes, it's just to listen to the heartbeat."
"In that case... that should be more convenient."
Without much hesitation, Sakayanagi Arisu sat down on the bed and took off her school uniform jacket, revealing a pale white shirt underneath.
"Uh, actually you can just listen to the heartbeat through the school uniform, since there are only two or three pieces of clothing in total."
Hashiba Hikaru was actually a little embarrassed. He and Sakayanagi Arisu hadn't reached the point of intimate contact yet. Although she was quite attractive, she was completely different from the other girls. Without a natural progression, it was unlikely that they could force their way closer.
"But didn't Classmate Hashiba say that we need to hear more clearly? If we're talking through clothes, there's bound to be some mistakes, right?"
Although Sakayanagi Arisu's face flushed, the other person was someone she liked, so despite her shyness, she didn't mind him seeing her body.
"Well."
Just as Hashiba Hikaru Sakayanagi Arisu didn't stop. After taking off her school uniform jacket, she actually took off her white undershirt. The next second, her light blue underwear and a large expanse of snow-white skin instantly came into the boy's view.
"..."
"Wait... wait!"
Just as Sakayanagi Arisu put her hands behind her back, seemingly intending to untie her bra straps, Hashiba Hikaru immediately stopped her.
"Well, that's pretty much it. Just listening to the heartbeat, no need for actual physical contact."
Hashiba Hikaru sighed, looking at the girl's smooth, jade-like skin. His heart couldn't help but feel a little hot, but the boy had seen enough of this kind of sight that he wouldn't actually show any signs of losing his composure.
"Does Classmate Hashiba think this is enough?"
"Um."
Seeing the boy's trembling appearance, Sakayanagi Arisu's face was still flushed, but a captivating smile appeared on her lips.
"Classmate Hashiba must have seen many girls' bodies, right? Why are you still so shy?"
"The situation is a bit different, Classmate Sakayanagi, you'd better not say anything for now, or I'll get distracted."
Hashiba Hikaru took a deep breath, shook her head, cleared her mind of all distractions, and slowly knelt down in front of the silver-haired girl.
Okay~
In fact, Sakayanagi Arisu just as shy as Hashiba Hikaru, but she was just trying to distract herself by talking. It was the first time the girl had let a man see her upper body in only underwear, so of course she was a little uncomfortable. Even her calves in white stockings were trembling a little.
"Phew, here I come."
Hashiba Hikaru took a deep breath and leaned her head against Sakayanagi Arisu's chest. With only one last layer of restraint on her upper body, the girl's fragrance became even stronger, and with his approach, it all rushed into the boy's nose.
"Hmm."
The silver-haired girl let out a soft moan.
When Hashiba Hikaru's head touched Sakayanagi Arisu's chest, he shifted his position and used his right ear to listen to the other's heartbeat.
Is this okay?
"Um, please keep quiet, Classmate Sakayanagi. Your heart is beating very fast right now."
Because he was listening to the heartbeat, the boy's right cheek inevitably touched the other person's bra and smooth skin.
"Good."
The boy couldn't help but swallow hard; he was genuinely nervous. After Sakayanagi Arisu pressed his chest against Hashiba Hikaru's, her slender arms instinctively wrapped around his head and pressed it forcefully against her chest.
"Wait... don't move, Classmate Sakayanagi."
"..."
Although Sakayanagi Arisu didn't speak, her movements didn't stop, and Hashiba Hikaru didn't dare to struggle too hard, after all, he still needed to listen to her heartbeat, and he just wanted to resolve the issue once and for all.
"Phew~"
After being firmly held in the girl's arms, Hashiba Hikaru's face was even closer to her skin. He experienced a very special feeling. Although she was also a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, the smoothness of her skin was astonishing.
The only regret is that Sakayanagi Arisu's chest only has a slight bulge, but this makes it easier for Hashiba Hikaru to listen to her heartbeat. If it were Ichinose Honami, it would be a bit troublesome.
Time ticked by, and after about two or three minutes, Hashiba Hikaru patted the other person's hand and said softly.
"Okay, I've finished listening."
"Um."
Chapter 625 Sakayanagi Arisu believes in her choice.
After listening to the girl's heartbeat, Hashiba Hikaru walked quickly to the backpack she had brought.
He placed his hand on the [Heaven-Sent Medical Kit]. The method of using this item is actually very simple: after you mentally review all the relevant information about the illness, the medical kit will automatically produce the corresponding medicine.
The boy breathed a sigh of relief. The items given by the system never had any problems, and he hoped that this time would be no different.
"Click."
The lid of the [Heaven-Sent Medical Kit] seemed to hear what Hashiba Hikaru was thinking. After he silently recited the relevant symptoms of Sakayanagi Arisu, the latches on both sides of the kit made a crisp sound.
"Is Classmate Hashiba already ready?"
Sakayanagi Arisu put her white shirt back on, her school uniform placed aside. The girl leaned against the headboard, watching Hashiba Hikaru's back intently.
"More or less."
Hashiba Hikaru nodded, opened the lid, and the medicine inside came into view. It was a box of very ordinary-looking capsules, with an instruction manual next to it.
[Heart Disease Treatment Capsules, taken once daily, followed by an hour's rest, for seven consecutive days, can help repair congenital defects.]
"It should be fine."
The boy opened the medicine box containing seven capsules, turned around, and walked up to Sakayanagi Arisu.
"This is the medicine I prepared; it can cure Classmate Sakayanagi's health problem."
He handed the capsule to the silver-haired girl, whose gaze held a complex mix of emotions as she carefully examined the medicine in her hand.
"Did Classmate Hashiba prepare this medicine in advance? You didn't do anything just now, you only took it out of the box."
Because of her weak constitution, Sakayanagi Arisu had taken many different types of medicine since childhood, but the medicine that Hashiba Hikaru gave her this time was very special. Not only did it not have a name, but more importantly, the smell of this box of medicine was very special, making it impossible for her to guess the ingredients.
"I can't give you a very specific explanation. Just know Classmate Sakayanagi this is the medicine I prepared for you. I believe it can cure your problem."
Hashiba Hikaru naturally wouldn't explain the [Stock Market System] to anyone, and Sakayanagi Arisu was a very special girl. Even without answering her questions, the boy still believed that she would eventually accept it.
"Since you put it that way, are there any precautions to take when taking the medication?"
Sakayanagi Arisu squeezed the capsule box in her hand and looked up into Hashiba Hikaru's eyes.
"There are seven pills in total. Take one pill a day for seven days and your condition should improve. Note that you should rest for an hour after taking the pills."
Hashiba Hikaru smiled. The items produced by the system had rarely had any problems, and he believed that the other party's congenital disease would definitely be cured.
"Alright then, I trust Classmate Hashiba. Let's try today's portion and see."
Although Sakayanagi Arisu felt that the medicine in his hand was a bit strange, he had an inexplicable trust in Hashiba Hikaru, and the two of them had an inseparable relationship.
The girl didn't think the other person was being silly; if it wasn't going to work, Hashiba Hikaru wouldn't have gone to all that trouble.
"Then I'll go get you a glass of water."
Upon hearing this, Hashiba Hikaru quickly fetched a glass of warm water for Sakayanagi Arisu, while Sakayanagi Arisu calmly sat on the bed with the medicine in her hand, watching the other person's actions.
