"Mind if I'll give it to you alone?" Yukimura said with a smile.

"Mind me!" However, before Qiye could speak, the others rushed to answer.

"Minister, it's a bit unkind for you to remain mysterious at this time, poof." Nioh complained on the sidelines.

Seeing that Yukimura didn't plan to take out the things and couldn't satisfy their curiosity, everyone expressed dissatisfaction. Yukimura ignored the indignant gazes of the others and looked at Nanaya seriously.

"Of course I don't mind." Nanaya nodded.

Since the protagonist said so, no matter how curious they are, everyone is helpless, and they can only blame Yukimura. But who of those sitting here would dare to blame him?

However, when the waiter brought the meat, these dissatisfaction and regret were instantly forgotten by them. Because the crowd quickly entered the barbecue zone.

Qiye was the first time to eat with a group of athletic teenagers, and when she saw this battle, she refused at first. The freshly cooked meat on the baking tray was snatched up in the next second, and her chopsticks were not embarrassed when they were in the air.

"Eat with them and react quickly." Seeing Nanaya's confused look, Yukimura chuckled and put a slice of yakiniku into her bowl.

"Thank you." She looked at Yukimura gratefully, feeling that he was as considerate as ever.

Qiye looked at the situation on the table and sighed that the amount of food for adolescent boys was really shocking. Even Yagyu Hirushi or Yukimura Seiichi, who usually look like gentleness, are quietly picking things into the bowl at this time.

Halfway through the meal, everyone slowed down and began to chatter more.

Manager A came over with a drink: "We usually work together, thank you for your hard work, Asahi-san." ”

"No, you've helped me a lot." Seven nights took a drink in return.

"Anyway, I don't have Asahi-san's mobile phone number until now......" Before he finished speaking, the people around him began to coax, and in the ridiculed eyes of everyone, Manager A's face gradually turned red, "Eh! As a friend, it's not too much to leave a mobile phone number! ”

"Speaking of which, I don't have Asahi-san's mobile phone number either!"

"Neither do I."

“……”

So after finishing this drink, on the mobile phone address book of Seven Nights, in addition to Jibu, Huangse, Yukimura, Akaji, there are a lot of phone numbers.

She was in a good mood throughout the whole meal, and it should be said that she hadn't experienced such a relaxed and pleasant meal for a long time. She is used to walking alone, even eating, and it is a rare opportunity for a large group of acquaintances like this to gather together to eat and chat.

After being stunned, she met Yukimura's eyes, those blue-purple eyes were full of affinity, just a gentle glance, which made her understand what he wanted to express.

You're not alone.

Yukimura-kun, it's really gentle. He was different from all the boys she had ever met, and he was so contradictory that I couldn't describe it.

He is cold and arrogant most of the time, like a noble cat, and you always feel a sense of distance from him. Especially on the court, it is extremely decisive and ruthless, and the mental destruction of the opponent is terrifying.

But sometimes he is as gentle as water, very detail-oriented, and always so understanding, unconsciously making people covet his warmth.

Nanaya felt that if he didn't have the same ability as him, he would definitely not enter the heart of this beautiful boy full of contradictions.

For the second time in her history, she felt like she had this unique ability, and it wasn't all bad.

When I came out of the barbecue restaurant, it was nightfall. After saying goodbye to the others, Yukimura and Nanaya stroll through the streets at night.

The streetlights glow orange and appear extra warm on winter nights. Greeted by the cold sea breeze, Qiye couldn't help but shiver, and quickly put his hands in his pockets to keep warm.

Yukimura took out a wrapped gift from his bag and handed it to Nanaya with a smile.

Qiye thanked him, and then couldn't help but look up: "Can you open it and take a look?" ”

"Absolutely, I hope you'll like it." Yukimura nodded.

Qiye carefully tore open the wrapping paper, and then what greeted her was the set of supernatural ancient books that she had been thinking about for a long time.

How could you not like it? It was definitely the best gift I received tonight.

"I'm glad," Nanaya thanked from the bottom of his heart, but he was still a little confused, "Don't you need it?" ”

"Actually, I don't need this anymore." Yukimura breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of melancholy in his indifferent tone.

"You mean!?" Nanaya immediately reacted to the meaning of his words.

In other words, is his ability gone?

"Yes, you're right," Yukimura paused, "I'm not much different from a normal person now. ”

He still remembers the last time he went to see a psychiatrist some time ago, and he told him in amazement that he had basically recovered his fù normal. Whether this was good news or bad news for him, he himself did not know.

But he knew that she probably really left.

"Congratulations?" Qiye muttered, but his mood was a little complicated. It's hard to tell if it's because he's happy or if it's because he's lost his kind.

"That's not necessary," Yukimura could probably guess Nanaya's thoughts at this time, and couldn't help but ask gently, "Has Asahi thought about the future?" ”

"I've thought about it, but it doesn't seem to work." Seven nights bowed their heads, and the last note was accompanied by a soft sigh.

She thought she was still happy that Yukimura had lost her ability and turned back to normal. After all, the existence of this ability is bound to do more harm than good, and being able to see strange things will inevitably cause a lot of trouble, and it is always in a state of turmoil on a psychological level.

But as far as she is concerned, if one day her abilities disappear, she herself will probably disappear from this world.

She looked up at the sky, and a few stars twinkled in the inky sky. The night was quiet, but her state of mind was hardly calm.

"Can you go to a place with me," Yukimura opened his mouth, seeing her looking at him suspiciously, and added with a smile, "I'll send you home safely later." ”

"Actually, I'm more worried about you, after all, criminals still look at their faces first." Qiye glanced at the boy whose boyfriend was explosive in an instant, and couldn't help but joke.

"Hehe, it's not funny at all," Yukimura narrowed, "even then, I'll make them understand that there is a price to be paid for looking at faces." ”

Qiye caught a glimpse of the young man's brighter smile, and he didn't dare to say anything.

She finally understood that this young man looked like a dog, sometimes gentle and sometimes cold and arrogant, but she still couldn't avoid the fact that the cut was black!

Thinking of his agility in fighting the mountain monsters, she was convinced of what he was saying.

In short, Yukimura Seichi told us that people should not be disgraced!

Nanaya followed Yukimura and unconsciously walked to a nearby park. She looked at Yukimura suspiciously, not knowing what the purpose of coming here at night was, but the other party just smiled and led her to the river.

"I heard that there are river lanterns here." Yukimura's warm voice sounded again.

Qiye looked at his line of sight, and saw a few faint lights on the river. Approaching the riverbank, a closer look reveals that it was a river lantern of a different shape, emitting a glimmer of light that dyed the dark surface of the water gold. Walking upstream, floating lights flooded at them. The lamps swayed slightly with the flow of water, and slowly flowed down.

They are like stars in the night sky, flickering and flickering, and they are exceptionally bright in the dark.

Seven Nights once read a saying in a book that the river lantern is the guiding light of hell. Legend has it that the road from the sun to the underworld was pitch black, and if there was no light, they could not see the road ahead, so the relatives of the deceased lit a river lamp to guide them to the underworld.

"Do you want to put it?" Qiye looked at the small river lantern vendors not far away.

Since I came here on purpose, I guess Yukimura had an idea to put a lamp on it, and the purpose is obvious.

"Then let's play with it." After saying that, Yukimura walked over, and when he came back, he held a lotus lantern in his hand.

Nanaya took the matchbox in his hand, wiped one, and lit the wick. The light of the fire suddenly flew high, and she hurriedly took a few steps back, watching it flutter several times before daring to approach again.

Yukimura smiled and watched Nanaya's actions. The light of the fire reflected on her countenance, and it was especially clear in the darkness of the night.

He dragged the lotus lantern and carefully placed it on the water. The glimmering river lantern soon drifted away with the current, and finally became a small point of light.

The river lantern carries their hopes, and they go down the river, wondering if they can convey this heart to the people they miss?

Nanaya breathed a sigh of relief and followed Yukimura along the river. However, the further down the river, the less light in the river was, and more of them were unidentified objects floating on the surface of the river.

"This ......" Nanaya's eyes widened, and then he calmed down again.

Yes, after all, this river lamp is extremely fragile, and it is not easy to float to the end of the river when it hits a reef, is overturned by the current, or is blown out by a strong wind. Even if these undesirable factors are avoided, they will eventually stagnate because the wick burns out.

"It's going to be destroyed." Yukimura's expression was indifferent, as if he had expected this situation for a long time.

So why put it in the first place?

Nanaya didn't ask, but Yukimura seemed to know the doubts in her heart, and explained with a smile: "I don't know if she will be on that dark road, but how long can it be lit." ”

Whether it's true or not, take it as his good hope. In this world, it's always good to miss a little.

"That's it" Qiye nodded clearly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his mind was delicate.

Should I say that he deserves to be a Pisces boy? With unrealistic fantasies, as well as good hopes.

"If one day I ......" she looked at the sparkling water, and after thinking for a while, she finally said lightly, "Yukimura, will you put a river lantern for me?" After all, that dark road sounds creepy. ”

"There won't be a day." Yukimura immediately replied to her.

"I mean if."

"There will be no ifs."

"Well, I didn't expect you to be quite stubborn in this regard." Seven Nights sighed helplessly.

"Why do you say that all of a sudden?" Yukimura frowned, and met the dark eyes of Nanaya, but there was no trace of affection in those quiet black eyes.

"Life can always guess the beginning, but it is difficult to guess the end," Qiye paused, "especially in this era of accidents." ”

Seeing the lonely river lanterns floating on the river, she couldn't help but think of many things in her heart.

She helped Jibu resolve her grievances with the resentful spirits, helped Chiaki reunite with Takema, and witnessed her sister's disappearance with Yukimura.

If she disappears into an unfathomable fate, who will chase her without hesitation?

"Don't overthink it, Asahi." Yukimura breathed a sigh of relief and patted Nanaya's shoulder.

"I'm thinking too much, sorry." Qiye bowed his head, and his eyes were covered with long bangs.

At this time, there was a soft singing voice not far away, and a gentle male voice was intoxicating for a moment.

Nanaya and Yukimura stood on the riverbank for a long time, and it was not until the end of the song that they turned away from this place of hope and sorrow. And the song always echoed in my head, and it didn't stop for a long time.

"I have turned into a thousand wisps of light wind, soaring in the infinite expanse of the sky." (Please support genuine for the rest.) ）
