Chapter 24: What is the Hidden Thing Beneath Loneliness?

In a few days, it should be a Saturday afternoon. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Just like the winter in Chiba last year, it becomes very cold as soon as it crosses December, yes, it's very cold, and the sun that can still occasionally come out last month is not visible at all this month, and probably, because he is looking forward to Christmas too much, he has become an honest good boy who hangs red socks and hides in the quilt all day.

In short, even during the day, it will become gloomy and gloomy, and it looks like the end of the world is coming, and not only that, but today's climate really makes people feel bad things other than cold and oppressive - it has been drizzling since the morning, and it adds a bit of stickiness out of thin air in this oppressive weather, if it is not an optimist, I guess the mood will be affected just by seeing such weather.

When the bell rang for the end of class, I looked out the window and let out a soft sigh when I was inadvertently affected by the weather.

After all, when I was in a daze, I thought of many recent events, although it all seemed to be over.

Commissions, conflicts, collaborations, commotions, and suddenly my desk became lively.

These things turned into silhouettes and floated past me page by page, as if they were reminiscing, but more often than not, they were reflecting... I thought about it alone.

[Hey!Biqi Gu-kun, class is over!]

With a "snap", my desk shook slightly, and when I came back to my senses and raised my head, Nogawa looked excited and appeared in my sight.

Aha... No, no, why did you come back to your senses and face this face? Ever since this guy found out what had happened, he had become a little... I had to deal with topics that had nothing to do with me during recess, and I was forced to go to the lounge bar for two days to team up and play video games for a few hours.

As I said earlier, there was a lot of activity at my desk, but most of it was just this guy and Wu Liu, and I could only deal with it with the tone of "ah", "um" and "almost" most of the time.

[Ahh I know. ]

[That....]

Takeru, who was standing next to Nogawa, slung his shoulder bag over his shoulder, tidied up his neckline, which was not messy at all, and kept signaling to me with his eyes.

[I still have something...] You guys go first, right?]

Through Wu Liu's reminder, I remembered... On Tuesday, Liu Wei spoke in the activity room and sent out an invitation

"If you can, let me have a treat on Saturday this week."

While the guys were discussing something that embarrassed me, and it seemed that they were about to have a celebration, Liu Wei suddenly closed the book in his hand and invited everyone.

The time was set on Saturday, and the location was at Liu Wei's residence, and the decision was not discussed, but she said it with a smile without any sense of disobedience, and then it was decided.

That's why I'm here... It can be seen that these two guys have been specially dressed, and even Nogawa's slightly obese figure has been changed into a set of gray and black clothes, probably if he can, I guess this guy will wear a formal suit...

[And... Things?]

After Yeyue packed up her things, she tilted her head slightly to look at me and asked with doubt. After all, I usually feel like I'm the kind of guy who doesn't have any reservations except to study and go home.

[Well, Yono said... Let her know when I'm leaving...]

[Eh, can't you make a phone call?]

As soon as the words fell, Nogawa asked

[This guy has been off the phone since noon.]

... Definitely on purpose, this person.. But halfway through, I sent a message of "I'm at my place with Xiaoxue Nai" to me, and then I didn't respond at all.,Damn... By the way, the phone under the snow is also turned off, so now it has become a situation where you have to go.

Then, after Nogawa and Wu Liuleng glanced at each other, they silently gave a thumbs up with a look of "we understand".

[Then, let's go to the tram stop and wait for you.] ]

[Well, come on, Hikiya Warriors!]

After that, Nogawa made a cheering gesture to me, and then walked out with Wu Liu, shaking his hand... This action is redundant. And, what is that last warrior referring to... Aha.

While sighing, I also got up from my seat, looked at it, and didn't find Liu Wei, probably went to get busy first.But then again, until now I still can't believe that this is an invitation from her personally.

After all, all of a sudden... The contrast is a bit big, and it's hard to accept, isn't it?

[Let's go.] ]

[Hmm.] ]

And just like that, Yeyue and I walked out of the classroom as the last people.

[Please.] Wait a minute. ]

Walking out of the classroom door, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him, and when he looked back, Liu Wei was standing by the wall at the door with his schoolbag in both hands... She hasn't been back yet, she.

[Sister Liu Wei?]

Yeyue was also a little strange, so she screamed softly.

Liu Wei just bowed slightly to the night moon, and then said to me

[... I have something to say to you. ]

[Me?]

I pointed at myself with some disbelief, but Liu Wei nodded slightly in confirmation.

[What?]

[...]

After a short silence, she bit her lip gently, as if she was hesitating something, but in the end, she seemed to have made some decision and began to ask softly

[.... Why, to this point?]

His eyes were fixed on me, as if he was quite obsessed with the answer.

[I just did what I wanted.] ]

[So why?]

Liu Wei's tone suddenly became a little urgent, as if he was desperate to get an answer, and an anxious look slowly appeared on his face.

[.... Why...]

I repeated it softly, I thought about it too, but...

[Before answering this question, can you tell me why you are still obsessed with this question? ]

This kind of thing is not the case of those so-called praise of failure as the mother of success, and they can't get any experience from the past to make up for their own shortcomings, if you have to say it, you can probably think of it as a piece of black history and sink it in your memory. After all, when I met that guy yesterday, I was glared at with angry eyes...

Then there was a silence that was neither long nor short, and then as if he was deflated, Liu Wei began to talk slowly, as if he was recalling the past

[There is no return without paying.] This is the family motto that I have heard and learned since I was a child, because of my parents' business relationship, in the past ten years from elementary school to high school, I have changed many schools, and the longest one stayed for two years, although it was not long, but many things happened...]

Speaking of this, a self-deprecating smile began to appear on her face, shook her head slightly, and then sighed

[For example, when I was sick, I was accompanied only by the occasional nurse, when I was warned not to appear in the class again, I had to ask my parents to transfer to another school, and after being confessed by the thugs at the school gate, everyone stayed away from me, and after receiving inexplicable letters and fruit baskets in the desk box, rumors began to circulate that I was being fostered....]

At this point, she paused again, slowly looked up at me, and smiled self-deprecatingly, as if she were speaking to herself

[I used to talk to someone at first, but after a while, everyone ran away and started to cut off contact with me... I couldn't understand it before, but gradually I thought about it - I didn't give anything, and it was natural for others to do it. So, the choice I made was to transfer or leave that place, always. So, why?]
