Chapter 21: Is This the Reality?
Get out of the jewelry store.
"It's raining?" Chie Kamikawa raised her snow-white forehead and blinked her slender eyelashes.
I was chatting with my classmates and didn't notice that it was raining.
Mizushima Iori proposed: "The rain is so heavy that it won't stop for a while, so let's go back to the jewelry store and buy an umbrella." ”
Not much.
They came out again, each with an extra umbrella in their hands.
"Let's go."
Mizushima Iori walked out with an umbrella.
It was raining heavily.
The sky was cloudy, dark clouds were rumbling, and thunder sounded from time to time.
There are fewer people on the streets, the bustle is gone, and the atmosphere is cold.
Chie Kamikawa's mood was not affected by the bad weather in the slightest.
People are in a good mood, and everything they see is good.
This is the case with Chie Kamikawa.
The rain hits the bricks and tiles of the Japanese-style roof, and in the ears of Kamikawa Chie, the sound of hitting is crisp and pleasant.
I looked up slightly and looked at the Japanese-style eaves of the houses on the street next to me.
The rain splashed down and flowed into the eaves of the ditch bars, and the sound of the water murmured.
Two distinct sounds on the roof meet.
Looking at the ground.
Under the heavy rain, small puddles formed on the ground.
The rain falls, the big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate, the crystal is sprinkled, the sound is like a rattle, and the hum and light are intertwined.
Listening to the echo of all kinds of rain in my ears, like various musical instruments, playing a symphony, Kamikawa Chie stepped over a small puddle.
That's when it happened.
Chatting with Mizushima Iori, Chie Kamikawa looked at the corner of the street under the eaves.
There's an old homeless man there.
He stood under the eaves to hide from the rain, but the rain was too great and the eaves were too small to hide from much rain.
Most of my hair was soaked, and my clothes were all wet from my shoulders.
Due to the wandering, the other party's body looked thin and thin, and there was nothing at hand to block the rain, so he could only rub his arms with both hands to resist the cold rain.
"Ahh
The old wanderer sneezed.
Because it was too cold, he leaned into the store next to him, only to be chased out like a fly.
He had no choice but to go back to the side of the roof.
"Ugh."
The old wanderer sighed.
When will the rain stop, it's so cold.
It won't rain for a day, and there doesn't seem to be a place to hide from the rain in this place.
Call~
The old heaven is like an old wanderer, and a gust of wind blows.
The wind is mixed with the rain, and in this autumn season, it is cold.
The old homeless man shivered and wiped the rain from his face.
I'm not going to freeze to death today......
"Huh?"
Suddenly, the sad old homeless man was stunned.
What about the rain?
It was raining in front of him, but he found that the rain had not fallen on him.
The old homeless man subconsciously raised his head.
On the top of his head, I don't know when there was an umbrella, and next to him, there were more girls, and the umbrella was held by the other party.
Looking at the umbrella, looking at the girl.
The old wanderer was stunned and unexpected.
This girl didn't happen to be next to him by coincidence, and it happened to be an umbrella covering him, but the girl was giving him an umbrella.
His eyes fell on the girl's shoulder.
Because the umbrella was not large, the girl deliberately covered the old homeless man, and her left shoulder was partially wet by the rain.
"Old uncle, this umbrella is for you." Chie Kamikawa handed over her umbrella.
The old tramp was stunned.
This is the first time that someone has handed him an umbrella since he was robbed of his house by his son and kicked out, and he became a homeless man.
Until he took the umbrella in his hand, the old homeless man did not come back to his senses.
"Goodbye, old uncle."
Hearing this, the old homeless man came back to his senses and hurriedly spoke: "That...... Take your umbrella back, give me your umbrella, you don't have an umbrella. ”
Chie Kamikawa smiled and pointed to Mizushima Iori and Komuro Mie who rushed over.
"It's okay, I'll just use an umbrella with my friends."
"My God, Chie said why are you running so fast, it turns out to send an umbrella, you ......"
Mizushima Iori wanted to say that Chie was stupid, that she was just a bum, but seeing that the old tramp was there, she didn't say the last words.
Chie Kamikawa seemed to know what Mizushima Iori was going to say, and hurriedly said.
"Iori, let's go, aren't we going to eat dessert."
As she spoke, she squeezed to Iori Mizushima, who had bought a big umbrella, and smiled, showing her cuteness.
Just when the three of them were about to leave, the old homeless man wanted to thank her.
"Yo, little sister, do you want to eat dessert? We're going to eat too, or we're going to eat together. ”
A voice like a duck's voice came.
Not far away, five or six young people walked.
The one who opened his mouth was a young man with Japanese-style bangs.
With one hand in his pocket and the other with an umbrella, he strode over.
The behavior is full of ruffianism.
The other youths were no better, all wearing studs, tattoos, and blonde hair.
Seeing that six young people who were obviously social gangsters came over, how could the three elementary school girls in Kamikawa Chie not be afraid.
Subconsciously leaning timidly together.
The six youths surrounded them, as if they could not see their fear.
"Little sister, what kind of dessert do you like to eat? Tell me, don't worry, we're not bad people. ”
Japanese-style bangs are mixed up, with a frivolous tone, revealing a smile that he thinks is very elegant.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Fu Ken Moriji, you can call me Moriji, these are my friends, his name is Nakata, and that one is called Digging ......"
"yes, yes, we're not bad people."
The other youths chimed in, and then stepped forward to strike up a conversation.
"Little sister, what's your name? Don't be afraid, I just saw you so cute and wanted to treat you to a meal. ”
"Eat a P's meal, didn't you hear people just say that they want to eat desserts, hehe, I know a dessert shop is good, I'll take you there."
"I also know a dessert shop is delicious."
"Dessert, my favorite thing to invite girls to chocolate bars."
The last young man's words caused the other thugs to burst into laughter.
The laughter is unbridled and very obscene.
Where have the three daughters of Kamikawa Chie seen such a scene, and they are extremely scared.
Three little girls from middle school in the country are huddled together, not knowing what to do.
The rain is still falling.
Heavy rain poured down.
Faced with the encirclement of social gangsters, Kamikawa Chie was scared in her heart, just like Mizushima Iori and Komuro Mie, her body trembled with fear and her legs became weak.
At this time, she felt that everything had become terrible.
The faces and words of the social gangsters scared her.
To her ears, the pleasant sound of all kinds of rain is not beautiful at this moment, but gathers in her ears, like a drum beating irregularly, which looks noisy and harsh.
Nissan......
Chie Kamikawa, who was scared, remembered Uekawa Zun.
At this moment, someone on the street and in front of other shops walked out, and they looked this way.
These people are men and women, teenagers, adults, and middle-aged people.
There was pity in everyone's eyes.
Most people just watched, and only a very small number of people wanted to come to Chie Uekawa.
As a result, as soon as he took a step forward, he was not stared at by the social gangsters, stared back, and dispelled his thoughts.
Otherwise, he was pulled by the people around him, and looked at the people around him shaking their heads and words, and the pace stopped.
In the end, no one stepped forward to relieve them of the siege.
Not a single one.
They were just watching, talking and talking.
And when Chie Kamikawa looked at them and cast a pleading gaze.
These people all turned their heads and avoided their eyes for help.
Either pretend you didn't see it, or just walk away.
Seeing this, the three of them did not feel colder and colder for a moment than they did now.
