The so-called rest,That is naturally escape,This,Whether it's Kazuya or Ayase,Both know this.,However,Since this matter has been decided,The two naturally tacitly hid this idea in their hearts.,Pretending to have nothing to do.。

Obtaining the consent of their parents is not a difficult task, this brother and sister are so sensible and reassuring to them that they have almost never failed in making decisions on their own. Therefore, although they were a little surprised that Kazuya agreed to accompany Ayase to the United States so easily, and were also a little surprised by the speed with which the two of them prepared their luggage and set off, but out of their trust in Kazuya and Ayase as always, the Aragaki couple still left the little worry in their hearts behind.

Kazuya and Ayase were not informed of this plan, and no one around Kazuya and Ayase could grasp what they wanted to do from their every move. Kazuya, as always, listened carefully to the school, participated in the team's training, and participated in Blessing-Software's activities - but there was a lot of silence on the issue of Lunya's script, and everyone just thought that it was just the after-effects of the previous emotional outburst. Ayase also maintained a dignified image in school, and continued to work seriously after class, except for Kanako, a brokerage company, no one can find out the turbulent feelings hidden behind this 15-year-old girl - although Kanako knows some about Ayase's future, but, under the coercion and temptation of Ayase herself, Kanako's classmate still obediently chose to shut up.

And after returning home, Kazuya and Ayase have a tacit understanding to carry out their own luggage sorting work. Boys' luggage is always simpler than girls', so, sometimes, when Kazuya feels that he has nothing to do, he will knock on his sister's room door, and then just walk into Ayase's room, and don't try to help, just quietly watch Ayase's busy appearance. Usually at this time, Ayase would smile sweetly back at Kazuya, and then continue to get busy.

After getting things ready, Kazuya chatted with Ayase for a while, and sometimes, he complained that this year's Toonosaki's freshman level was not ideal, and whether he could make it to the prefectural caucuses without his help, and sometimes, he would tease Ayase about how many part-time jobs Ryūya had taken on, and then the money from these part-time jobs quickly disappeared in the process of buying a house.

And Ayase listened quietly to Kazuya's complaints, and sometimes she would lie on her brother's lap and say, "Without my brother, Toyonosaki really can't do it!" Sometimes, she keeps waving her hands and shouting tired words like "I really can't understand someone like Yasui Senpai". And at this time, Kazuya will just shrug his shoulders and move on to the next topic.

Kazuya doesn't remember the last time he and Ayase got along in such a harmonious mode, maybe it was when he was with Eiri Riri, maybe it was a long time ago, when Kazuya gradually realized that Ayase had grown up, he no longer had too close contact with Ayase. However, in this pre-departure preparation stage, when Kazuya found that he had abandoned all his social networks and emotional networks, Kazuya felt that it turned out that it was not a big deal to talk to Ayase in this most relaxed posture.

This further makes Kazuya a little self-deprecating, if it weren't for his previous overprotection and over-care, maybe a lot of things that make people feel a little excessive in Ayase won't happen, right? Perhaps, as long as I had a similar chat with Ayase once a week, a lot of things would have changed before, right? He has been deliberately avoiding Ayase and keeping a distance from his sister, which leads to the fact that he can only rely on Ayase at this irretrievable time, and finally leads to such an ironic evasion ending.

In this way, Kazuya ushered in the last night before leaving for the United States.

This night, he also received an unexpected phone call.

Dividing line-

"Tomorrow, you're leaving, right?" When Kasumigaoka Shiyu's melodious voice reached Kazuya's ears, Kazuya was obviously a little overwhelmed.

After being silent for a long time, he said a little weakly: "Senior Sister Shiyu, how do you know?" ”

"Don't worry, I didn't tell the others," Shi Yu on the other end of the phone smiled lightly and said, "Ying Lili, that stupid guy doesn't care about you, and that girl Kato Hui also deliberately ignored you, but that doesn't mean I won't pay attention to your situation, that turmoil, I'm not there after all, isn't it?" ”

"Just because you're not there doesn't mean that Senior Sister won't be sad, right?"

"Yes, to be honest, I was very angry when Ying Lili told me about it, but, for me, I was just angry, unlike that guy, from the beginning, I had nothing to lose, I was a woman who used to rob men with her, for me, one more competitor is also a robbery, and one less competitor is also a robbery."

"What Senior Sister Shiyu said is really above board!" Kazuya replied with a wry smile.

"But, Ying Li is different," Shi Yu continued as if it was none of her business, "although I don't want to admit it, but she is the one who has been waiting for you the longest, and after she is with you, she should also be the one who suffers the most, because this is the first time that the two of you have reconciled since they were separated - but I haven't been dumped by you like me I don't know how many times!" ”

Shi Yu was a little self-deprecating, and Jean He was also a little embarrassed, so he didn't know how to reply to Shi Yu.

"So, from the beginning, Ying Li was the one I was most afraid of, wasn't it? For Kazuya you, you finally made a choice, at least you can choose one person, for me or Kato, the loss, it's almost the same as before, it's a big deal that you can't pay attention to you, but Ying Lili, but to go through the pain from possession to failure, from this point of view, she naturally doesn't want any situation beyond her expectations. ”

"So, is that why she said Kato was too cunning?" Kazuya muttered.

"Yes, I haven't said anything, but I suddenly stepped in and made myself feel a great sense of threat, but I didn't expect this kind of situation at all, from the perspective of Ying Lili, it was enough to make her feel that she didn't know what to do, right? So that's where her sudden explosion came from. ”

"But, why did Senior Sister Shiyu tell me this?" Kazuya clenched his phone tightly and asked puzzled.

"Probably because you're leaving, right? It's not your cool-down or relaxation process for everyone—I know you want to say that. Shiyu stopped Kazuya from trying to explain his words in advance.

"For everybody, everybody knows, it's an escape choice that you make when you don't know how to be good, right? But you were the one who made this choice, so I'm embarrassed to say anything. It's just that I'm thinking that if one day, if you really don't want to run away from the problem, I think it's only her idea that will make you change your mind. ”

"What is Senior Sister Shiyu talking about, Ying Lili's thoughts?" Kazuya asked in a daze.

"That's right, it's Ying Lili's thoughts, okay, I'm really unwilling, but I must say again, although Kazuya is now very irresponsible to escape, but, you are a responsible person, a person with an excessive sense of responsibility. This means that you still have to come back in the end and give Ying Li Li an explanation, because, now, she is still your girlfriend, isn't it? ”

"Why do I always have an awkward feeling when I say such things!"

"That's right," Shi Yu smiled lightly, "It's awkward because I, as a competitor of Ying Lili, am mentioning that guy's good, but what, this kind of battlefield for grabbing men, in different situations, should be taken differently in strategy, isn't it?" In the current situation, the most important thing is to pull you back, so you have to rely on the strength of the opponent, which is also no way. ”

"Actually, Shiyu-senpai thinks too much, I'm just accompanying Ayase to the United States, she has a bit of a job there, and by the way, we can take a look at her friends-"

"-Don't worry, Kazuya, you still don't know your sister too well, if you are still like this after you come back from the United States, your lovely sister will think of other ways to help you 'relax'."

"Sister Shiyu, it's still a little wrong to say that about Ayase?" Kazuya glanced at Ayase, who was happily humming a little song to tidy up things, and frowned.

"I'm not saying that your sister is bad, that child is really a very cute child, and everyone likes it. In the past few days, in fact, I have been thinking a lot, your sister really cares about you. Shiyu said, "Or, in fact, many people should have noticed, whether it's Ying Lili or Kato Megumi, but they didn't take it too seriously before!" But you're going to the U.S. together, right? I'm just worried, so I'll just say a few more words. ”

"Ayase will help me, huh?"

"Yes, help you, but help you with your thoughts or help you with your real thoughts, these are two different things, I won't say anything else that affects your feelings, I wish you a happy America!"

"Then again, how did Senior Sister Shiyu know that I was going to the United States?"

"Although you hide well in school, I also have other channels, for example, you have explained to your editor named Qingwu, it may be difficult to contact you because of the time difference in the next period of time, and then investigate a little, in fact, many things are about the same."

"Senior Sister Shiyu has the potential to be a detective!" Kazuya paused and said with some jokingness.

"yes, maybe I can transform into a college love detective novel next!"

"You think you're talking about Ice X?"

"What is this?"

"Ah, well, isn't there anything online in this world?"

"All in all," Shiyu's voice became serious, "Kazuya-kun, I know that you can't change your mind now, but I'm sure you'll come back, or rather, when you feel that escaping can solve everything, what I want to tell you is that you have a problem that you need to solve on your own, and all of us are waiting for you to solve this problem - if you are not willing to give others an answer, then, at least, you should give Eiri an answer, and that's it." ”

"I feel, senior sister, you really know Yingli very well!"

"Yes, it's often your enemies who know you best!"

Kazuya could almost see Shiyu on the other end of the phone gently stroking his long hair through the phone, Kasumigaoka Shiba, at the perfect time, inserted a perfect set of phones, and then, in Kazuya's heart, laid a very small wedge.

"Brother, who were you talking to on the phone just now?" Ayase's nonchalant voice came.

"Ah, nothing, what about the editor of the editorial department, he seemed to want to ask me what to do with the second volume of the next novel, and I told him that I would write it to him if I had time when I went to the United States." Thinking of Shiyu's evaluation of Ayase just now, Kazuya's brows furrowed, and in the end, he still didn't tell Ayase Shiyu's call.

"Isn't there something too much to do with this editor, I really think that my brother will find out about telling him that you are going abroad." Ayase sighed and said.

"Anla, Anla, we'll leave tomorrow anyway, and after we're gone, we can't hide it, right? Could it be that someone will go to the airport tomorrow to block us? It's a joke, right? ”

"Okay," Ayase said, biting her lip, "all in all, I still think it's awkward, and besides, is the second volume of the novel really in such a hurry?" ”

"It's just perfunctory, it's really not good, I can come up with a few other projects to fool them." Kazuya spread his hands and said casually.

"Is it perfunctory?" Ayase nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Then Ayase understands, it's better for my brother to solve these things by himself, right?" ”

"That's right, I'll just solve it myself, Ayase should concentrate on work!"

"Yes, okay." Ayase nodded obediently and turned away.

"Okay, although Senior Sister Shiyu's words are somewhat psychologically complicated, but, these things or something, let's decide when the time comes!" Kazuya smiled and looked at Ayase's back and thought to himself.

Therefore, he naturally didn't notice that Ayase turned around, gently biting her lip, her unwilling nervous eyes, and her clenched fists.
