Touko seemed to see through his thoughts. She gently stepped on the heels of her boots and spun around Shiraishi, with each step following a mysterious rhythm.

"You who opened your eyes and wanted to expose the true face of the Christmas messenger must be a bad kid, right?" Her eyes were always fixed on Shiraishi, with both teasing and deep meaning.

The students around hurried by, some looking down at their phones, some chatting and laughing in groups of two or three, but no one noticed this charming miniskirt Christmas girl. She was like a phantom that only existed in Shiraishi's world, making people feel both novel and unreal.

Just as Shiraishi was immersed in this sudden wonderful feeling, Touko suddenly made a request: "I have a "zero five zero" request." Shiraishi quickly responded: "What request?"

"Can you stop sending gifts?"

There was a hint of urgency in Shiraishi's words.

When Touko heard this, she raised a playful smile: "Okay." Her answer was simple and direct, but it made Shiraishi feel a little disappointed. "Eh, is it okay?" He couldn't believe his ears.

"Because the gift is already shining." Touko said, opening the shrunken white bag in her hand, which was empty.

"How much was originally in that bag?" Shiraishi couldn't help asking. Touko stretched out a finger, and the action was both mysterious and tempting. "One?"

Shiraishi asked tentatively. Touko shook her head and laughed like a silver bell: "How is it possible? Don't joke, okay?"

"Ten?" Shiraishi guessed again, but he already had an ominous premonition in his heart. "Puff puff~ Wrong answer." Touko's laughter was like a spring breeze, but it also made Shiraishi's heart sink to the bottom of the valley.

"One thousand?" Shiraishi almost gritted his teeth to say this number, but Touko's reaction made him more convinced that he was still far from the truth. "Not enough at all. Don't underestimate the Christmas messenger, okay?"

Toruko's tone was a little provocative and a little proud.

"So... 10 million?" Shiraishi finally said the number that shocked him. Toruko nodded with satisfaction: "Yes. About 10 million."

10 million? This number exploded in Shiraishi's mind like a thunderbolt, and he could hardly believe his ears. Toruko seemed to see through his shock and confusion, and she gently pointed to the students passing by: "So, that person, that person, that person... I gave gifts to them."

The "10 million people" that Toruko mentioned lightly, does this huge number mean that in a corner of the world, there are countless young hearts that are inadvertently touched by this sudden "gift"?

Shiraishi tried to outline such a scene in his mind, but no matter how he tried, he could not imagine the picture clearly. Ten million people, each of them has an unknown emotional story in their hearts. If these stories suddenly burst out because of Touko's "gift"

, what will happen?chaos and complexity? He shook his head, trying to drive these unrealistic imaginations out of his mind.

"Christmas messengers can't work on days other than Christmas, right?" Shiraishi finally couldn't help asking the doubts in his heart. This was both a question about Toruko's ability and a persistence in the real world he lived in.

Toruko smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to hide endless secrets. "It's not that I want to give it, but everyone wants a gift. That child is one of them."

Her eyes penetrated Shiraishi and fell on the female student who was walking slowly in the distance - that was Shiraishi's classmate, Akagi Izumi.

At this moment, Shiraishi's heart suddenly tightened. If Toruko's words were true, then has Izumi also been affected by this "gift"?

He recalled every encounter with Ikumi, especially the brief conversation at the university entrance ceremony, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart..0

"What do you think, Futaba?" Shiraishi turned to Futaba Rio beside him for an answer. This rational and calm friend always gave him the most pertinent advice at critical moments.

"I think it is impossible to prove that this is true, nor can it be proved that this is false." Rio's answer was both objective and helpless, which just reflected the dilemma they were facing.

"Well, I think so too." Shiraishi sighed, with mixed feelings in his heart. If all this is true, then it undoubtedly confirms Rio's previous bold hypothesis-the one who triggered puberty syndrome is the college students who depend on the atmosphere.

This hypothesis originally sounded absurd, but in front of Touko's "gift", it seemed to have a hint of rationality.

"If this is true, Shiraishi, what would you do?" Rio's question made Shiraishi fall into deep thought. He smiled bitterly, "Anyway, you will be shocked first, right? But I don't have the ability to save everyone from puberty syndrome." There was a hint of self-mockery in his words, and he also revealed his helplessness towards reality.

"You mean 10 million people? 2.8" Shiraishi confirmed again. This number was still too huge for him to bear.

"Yes, 10 million people." Rio's answer was firm and calm, as if reminding Shiraishi that no matter what the truth was, they had to face it.

However, Shiraishi shook his head, "Unfortunately, I'm busy with Miss Mai and don't have time." Although this sentence sounds a bit irresponsible, it is the most true portrayal of his heart.

In this seemingly absurd world, he prefers to cherish the people in front of him and enjoy ordinary and real happiness.

As for Yu Shi and those who may be affected by the "gift", Shiraishi is concerned, but he also understands that he is powerless to change anything. .
