Chapter 420: South of the Border, West of the Sun

Just right, seeing your happy appearance, so happy with your happiness. - Haruki Murakami, "South of the Border, West of the Sun"

After rescuing the white dragon, his line was temporarily hidden. Chihiro plans to take the witch contract seal that the white dragon spit out and return it to Granny Qian.

Before that, she went to meet the faceless man again. At this time, the faceless man, because of his sadness, poured plates of food into his mouth while giving out gold. The original thin body size has become extremely huge because of this.

Looking at such a faceless man, Chihiro fed him the remaining half of the river god Maruko again.

Immediately Chihiro walked around the soup house and walked outside, and the faceless man vomited all the way and followed her all the way. Gradually, he spit out his negative emotions and **, and returned to his original appearance.

In this way, Chihiro went to the middle of the vast sea, and in the sea, there was a train line. It should be an extremely beautiful scene, and it can be said that Miyazaki perfectly recreated the most beautiful and dreamy fantasy in everyone's hearts.

Chihiro holds the ticket given to her by her grandfather and stands on the platform waiting for the train. Fang Baobao, who had turned into a mouse, was dragged by the fly to Chihiro's shoulder and sat down peacefully. At this moment, the faceless man, who had walked a long way in the sea, followed.

Chihiro asks him, are you going with you too? The faceless man let out another inexplicable grunt.

The train parted into the sea and slowly entered the station, splashing with wisps of clear waves.

After they got into the car together, Chihiro, who was sitting on the seat, pointed to the bench next to her: "Come and sit, but you have to settle down a little." ”

The obedient faceless man slowly walked over and sat down. The chubby rat nestled on Chihiro's shoulder pointed to the flies flying overhead. Let it hang itself up and fly to the window.

Fang baby lying on the window edge. Looking happily outside, I have never seen the world before.

The train travels through the sea, past isolated islands with only one house and one tree, past a distant town, and past a strange station called Marshara. In fact, it's not surprising that Chihiro, who has been in this world for so long, became as stable and quiet as Kim Taeyeon next to her when she returned to quiet.

The end is near. The train in the middle of the sea drove from dusk into the dark night, and there was no superfluous sound at the moment, only a very shallow and soothing dubbing, which coincided with the meeting.

When the lights come on, only Chihiro and the faceless man are left in the carriage. When they arrived, they got off the bus and a jumping street lamp came to show them the way.

I don't want to walk, I want to experience the feeling of flying. Continue to order the fly to fly with itself. Unfortunately, it neglected its own weight, and after a short while, the fly began to lose its altitude weakly, and finally flapped its wings with great effort. He fell to the ground as if he was about to die of exhaustion.

Seeing this, Chihiro wanted to hold the fat mouse back on her shoulder, but the mouse with a very interesting expression turned her head and snorted, and walked up without seeing it. To be exact. It's a four-legged ~~~~~

Walking through the forest path illuminated by street lights, they came to Granny Qian's place.

And so. The story begins to regress, and the plot begins to be supplemented and restored. And there are some gentle explanations.

When Granny Qian was telling a story to Chihiro, she found a fun toy, a fat mouse, and ran very the mouse flywheel. The back of this wheel was also transformed by Granny Qian and connected to the wool used to knit sweaters, and the fat mouse that had been running frantically for many laps would stop from time to time, lie on it and stick out its tongue to catch a few breaths, and then continue to run after it has eased up.

That look, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but laugh again.

Even when Granny Qian brought the dessert to the table, the baby mouse who asked about the taste climbed onto the table again. It moved to the plate, grabbed a biscuit and nibbled wildly, then hugged one on each of its left and right paws, and flew away again.

It's really a cute and explosive guy, Kim Tae-yeon's relaxed laughter hasn't stopped for a long time.

As for the faceless man, he was holding a cake plate in one hand and a fork in the other, eating quietly. After leaving the materialistic place, he returned to his innocence.

Finally, the end is approaching. After settling the matter between Granny Tang and Granny Qian, Bailong flew over to pick up Chihiro back, and the faceless man said that he wanted to stay and help Granny Qian knit sweaters.

The soft light changes, and the train in the sea when it comes turns into a white dragon in the sky when it returns. Chihiro, who falls behind in the soup house, soon arrives at the last moment, and she needs to find her parents on her own.

In the end, it was obvious that through the connection of family affection, she found it.

The fairy tale is complete.

In this movie, I only saw one image from beginning to end, that is, Chihiro Ogino standing in place with her hands tied, looking up at the faceless man holding out his hand in front of him.

At that moment, Chihiro Ogino's shadow and Kim Taeyeon's shadow overlapped together. Compared with Chihiro, who is innocent, simple and kind, but can bravely face life, Kim Taeyeon is only one thing different.

―――――― she always cares about the feelings of others, and would rather be wronged than unhappy. As soon as the other party was lost, she was nervous. As soon as the other party apologized, she softened her heart, and even felt that she was calculating when she was angry. She stupidly carried the happiness of others, and sometimes froze in place and gasped.

――――――But I know that her sensitivity is because of kindness. But a kind person will not suffer in the end, and there will definitely be more people who love her in return.

The curtain turned black, the exit lights lit up, but no one was here today.

More than two hours of movie, just like that.

Just after midnight, I took Kim Taeyeon's hand and came out, said hello to the movie theater staff, and then we walked out through the main entrance.

As soon as I came out of the cold-winded street, I pulled Kim Taeyeon beside me squarely in front of me. The collar of the stupid coat was open again, and I sighed and helped her close it properly.

Later, I inserted my cold hand into my collar and warmed it for more than ten seconds. Wait until you have a little warmth on your hands. I took her hand again and put both hands. Put it in your own pocket.

Kim Taeyeon, who didn't move the whole time, looked at me without taking his eyes off for a second. There was something sparkling in her eyes. I think she has felt the change in me, my choice......

So, let's take a step together.

In order to take care of her little short legs, I try to take as few steps as possible with each step. In order to take care of my long legs, she also tried to take a little more step with each step.

In the afterglow of my eyes, she lifted her calves straight and fell straight down, which was a cute stride that made me smile warmly.

Walk in the direction of parking, the first half of the journey. She didn't speak. But in the second half, she opened her throat shallowly.

"When you have time, remember to thank the staff, after all, it is not easy to find the source of this "Spirited Away", and it is even more difficult to empty a screening room to show us in a prime time. It's also a shame that you really opened the exit, and it's troublesome for others to this point. ”

Sure enough, she still clearly knew that although the favor I borrowed for this movie was not too heavy, at least it would not be too easy.

It's not the first time I've put myself in such a shoes and reminded me. Anyway. Every time I listen to it, I feel that for a long time, all the cold wind cannot enter my heart.

So I smiled faintly and nodded, "Yes." I know. ”

To be honest, it's really a bit too much to trouble others this time. But I don't think it's worth it. There is no such thing as worthiness or worthlessness in matters related to her.

Crossing the streets of Zero, which is not long at all. Before getting in the car, I looked up at the night sky. I found a lot of shining dots scattered in between.

At the last moment when I sat sideways in the car and closed the door, I couldn't help but think: it will be sunny and foggy for a long time, and it will be cloudy for a long time and foggy.

Maybe tomorrow morning, oh no, it's this morning......

After the eastern fog, it is sunny.

The temperature was very low in the middle of the night, and as soon as I got into the car, I noticed a light layer of hoarfrost on the front windshield of the K5. So while igniting the engine to warm up the car, I took a small towel from the door storage box and handed it to Kim Taeyeon next to me and asked her to wipe the white mist off the inner glass.

Next, I had to take her for an injection.

After a few minutes of hot drive, I followed the path shown by Kim Tae-yeon and drove to a clinic near her dormitory.

I don't know if it's because of the cold wind blowing back and forth twice, after getting out of the car and entering the clinic, the guy already looked a little dizzy, and the condition of the paper piece Tai was completely revealed.

After taking the body temperature, the diagnosis given by the doctor was not a big deal, but it was indeed a cold and fever.

I sat next to her when the injection was given, and the nurse's gaze was a little strange, but neither of us cared.

Even when the nurse looked for veins on the back of her soft white hand, I quipped, "I guess it's not easy to find, so let's just start and see if I can cure the convulsions." ”

It's because of the kind of head I opened, and for more than 20 minutes that the bag of anti-inflammatory drugs went down, the two of us pinched each other the whole time.

Although he was bickering again, it finally stirred up this guy's spirits a little.

After the injection, I went to the car in advance to turn on the heater, and then I sent her to the downstairs of the dormitory warmly.

Originally, I was going to let her go up by herself, but when I saw the state, I was a little uneasy. So I got out of the car, chased after her, and took the little one by the hand and went upstairs.

Entering the quiet room, Taigu, who had changed into slippers, opened the doors of the two rooms and took a small look, then turned back to lip sync with me. That means, "Two pigs are snoring." ”

There is really no good research on whether Shun Guipani snores when he sleeps. Anyway, I didn't hear anything through the door, and I guess it was a deliberate smear by this bad guy.

Slowing down, I first told Taigu to wash up, and then went to the kitchen to boil water with some medicine prescribed by the doctor.

After fiddling in the kitchen for a while, I entered Tegu's room with the tray. There were two cups on the tray, one of which was freshly boiling hot water and still steaming. In the other cup, it is a medicine that has been boiled with boiling water and then warmed. The white mist was above it, just faintly drifting. (To be continued.) )
