As soon as the production meeting of the animation production company ended, Yuu Kamiya came to the hospital where Alice Kumamoto was staying and asked about her physical condition. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The reply given by the doctor in question was that he was overworked and severely deprived of sleep, and although he could be discharged on the same day, it was best to stay in the hospital for observation and minimize the intensity of work in the future.

"Tuk Tuk~"

Outside the ward, Yu Kamiya politely knocked on the wooden door, and saw Alice Kumamoto lying on the hospital bed from the glass window nodded to him before pushing the door in, and put the fruit basket bought from the supermarket on the bedside table, Yu Kamiya sat on a stool and looked at Alice Kumamoto's side face, she is a mature female type, her charm and temperament are completely different from Uehara Emuetsuki, and when the golden hair is completely put down without restraint, it shows a completely different temperament from usual, not the noble and dignified in the past, nor is it simple and simple, Rather, it is a gentle and elegant intellect.

Yu Kamiya took out the red apples in the fruit basket, skillfully peeled them with the attached knife and nodded, "The doctor's diagnosis is overwork and severe sleep deprivation, so Miss Kumamoto has a good rest in the past half a month, and she will continue to stay in the hospital for two days for observation for the sake of insurance." ”

Kumamoto Alice grabbed the white sheets of the hospital bed, frowned and said softly: "I really haven't rested much in the past few days, but now I feel much better after resting, and it won't hinder my work." ”

Kamiya was stunned for a moment, the action of peeling the apple in his hand stopped, and he felt that the exotic classical woman in front of him had become a little unfamiliar, and said dumbly: "Aren't you the same as Aoi who belongs to the doctrine of not working overtime, why do you still want to go to work at this time." ”

"The animation project of "5 Centimeters per Second" is very important."

"Let the teacher hear this, she will probably let me fire you again, I have tried to let my body fall for work, but after being taught by the teacher, I no longer have this kind of thought." Kamiya Yu shook his head and chuckled, his eyes showed a little nostalgia and continued to comfort: "You can go back again when you are in good health, don't worry about the project of "Five Centimeters per Second" for the time being, I will arrange it." ”

"A production meeting has been held just now, and the other supervisors have also given satisfactory answers, and when you are fully recovered, you can officially devote yourself to the animation production of "Five Centimeters per Second"."

Feeling the concern in Kamiya Yu's eyes, she hesitated for a long time and replied, "I understand." ”

Kumamoto Alice looked at the scenery on the windowsill, her supple blonde hair was a little dazzling in the sunlight, and Kamiya Yu couldn't see her cheeks but could hear her asking softly, "Even so, will you let me go back to [Rim no Kong] to resume my role as art director." ”

Kamiya Yu's head: "You are fully capable of serving as the overseer of the art department. After speaking, he cut off part of the peeled apple and handed it to her: "Please use it, it tastes quite sweet."

Kumamoto Alice turned around, picked up the part of the apple and didn't eat it for a long time, and seemed to feel powerless for a long time, so she put the apple slice on the sheet and laughed at herself: "Kamiya, are you pitying me?" ”

Feeling the emotional ups and downs of her voice, Yu Kamiya put down the apple and shook his head and said, "I said, you have the ability to act as the supervisor of the [Yuanzhikong] Art Department, which is recognized by both the teacher, Aoi and Qianxia. ”

"What about that anime?"

Yu Kamiya knew that she was talking about "Five Centimeters per Second", shook his head and said naturally: "You just rest for a few weeks, it won't have a big impact." ”

Alice Kumamoto curled up, her head buried deep in her knees and did not speak.

Kamiya Yu could only sit awkwardly on the side, not knowing what she was thinking, for her overwork, Kamiya Yu took it for granted that he was also partly responsible.

"In the end, I couldn't do anything."

Yu Kamiya heard her whisper, and when Alice Kumamoto raised her head again, her sapphire eyes overflowed with tears, and she looked at Yu Kamiya and smiled reluctantly: "I'm sorry for bothering you." ”

Kamiya Yu stood up, intending to leave her alone and said, "It's okay, then I'll come back in a few days, by the way, what do you want to eat?" Aside from the anime, I'm probably just a little confident in my cooking. ”

Alice Kumamoto shook her head in distraction: "It's nothing. ”

"That's it, please take good care of your body, [Yuyuka] everyone is also very worried about you." Yu Kamiya smiled awkwardly, turned around and left the ward after speaking.

Until the ward became quiet again, Kumamoto Alice hesitantly picked up the apple that Kamiya had peeled and took a small bite.

"It's so sweet."

Her emotions are very complicated now, she almost didn't control her emotions just now, Kamiya Yu's comforting words are as sharp as a knife in her heart, and a few weeks off will not affect the animation project of "Five Centimeters per Second", even if she doesn't know much about the animation industry, she knows that the absence of the art department supervisor will definitely have a major adverse impact on the animation production, and if it doesn't affect anything, it just shows that she is not important to the animation project.

Withdrawing from the British social scene and being expelled from her family, Kumamoto Alice is tired of her previous way of life, and her recent life has been bumpy, so she can't find any sense of belonging.

It's just that it's clear that she failed, and instead became a drag on everyone.

Kamiya Yu's attitude of comforting her has just become what she cares about the most in her heart, knowing that Kamiya Yu's every word is not malicious, she still feels unacceptable. When Yuu Kamiya gave her the apple, she even felt the urge to smash the apple into Yuu Kamiya's face.

It's just a simple vent of anger, the anger of being extremely disappointed in herself, and even the opportunity to return to [Fate of the Void] is a pitiful element for others, so what is the difference between her and the flattery she used to shake her head and tail at the powerful in the British social circles?

Alice Kumamoto wants to prove herself, and even more so to show her abilities in front of Yu Kamiya, so that he will at least regret his decision to fire her back then.

The pungent smell of disinfectant in the hospital made Alice Kumamoto feel more and more uncomfortable, and she collapsed on the hospital bed and buried herself in the pillow and still couldn't sleep as before.

-- Ability to serve as a supervisor of the art department.

Yu Kamiya's voice sounded in her heart, feeling so oppressed that she couldn't breathe, this sentence she would probably accept calmly before, stemming from her confidence in her own abilities, but a day ago she had just seen Yu Kamiya's level of painting, with the comfort that allowed her to rest well, and the praise became a harsh irony.

Not necessary, not useful, but dispensable, her last pride was lost at this moment.
