Chapter 12: Belonging to Chixia's Persistence
When she arrived at China's classroom, she learned from her classmates that Chinatsu seemed to have gone to the rooftop of the school.
After that, Hachiman hurried towards the roof of the school.
"Squeak~squeak~" Hachiman opened the door to the rooftop and saw a red-haired girl standing in front of the railing, looking straight into the sky in the distance......
Suddenly, a sense of loneliness emanated from Chinatsu's body, and Hachiman's heart couldn't help but hurt, and he forced a smile and said:
"China, what are you doing here? It's time for class, let's go back......"
Hearing the familiar voice behind her, Qianxia hurriedly wiped her eyes with her sleeve, turned around and said:
"Biqi Gu-kun, why are you here?"
Looking at Chinatsu's slightly red and swollen eyes, Hachiman asked:
"Chixia, are you crying?"
"No, it's just that the wind here is too strong, and the sand is blowing into my eyes," Chixia quickly retorted.
"Okay, let's go back, it's almost time for class" Without giving Hachiman a chance to continue asking, Chinatsu ran downstairs.
Looking at Chinatsu's back, Hachiman couldn't help but think:
"Wouldn't it be better to let Chinatsu quit that photography department......"
In the midst of such thoughts, the bell for school gradually rang.
When Hachiman walked into the department, he saw that he was already sitting there under the snow, drinking black tea and reading a book.
Seeing this pleasant appearance under the snow, Hachiman couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, and asked in a deep voice:
"Under the snow, you can enjoy a day, I wonder how your commission is completed?"
Hearing Hachiman's inquiry, he said without raising his head under the snow:
"You don't need to care more about Qigu-kun than Qigu-kun, you better do your best!"
"Hehe, don't I care!? Did you know that Chinatsu didn't have a good time in the photography department, and she even cried today......" Hachiman said loudly.
Hearing Hachiman's angry scream, he slowly closed the book in his hand under the snow, and said with a flat face:
"I know, that photography department is an 'empty shell' club, and none of the members of the department are good at photography, and I also know that Chixia has been wronged in it......"
"Then you also introduce this club to Chinatsu, what the hell are you ......," Hachiman said hurriedly.
"I did it on purpose, it would be more conducive to Chinatsu's entrusted solution," Hachiman interrupted Hachiman forcefully.
Hearing that the snow was deliberate, Hachiman couldn't help but froze.
Ignoring Hachiman's reaction, Yukishita said calmly:
"Chixia wants to change her shy personality, and the best thing to do in a short period of time is to make herself tough, so you need some external stimulation"
"And when I looked through the introduction of the school's club, I found that the photography department was a good 'help', so I introduced this club to China."
Hearing the "amazing" remarks under the snow, Hachiman couldn't help but ask:
"If you do this, aren't you afraid of leaving a psychological shadow on Qianxia? What if Thousand Summer doesn't become tougher, but becomes weaker? ”
"This will never happen," Yukishita affirmed.
"Why?"
"Because I've been there," he replied quickly under the snow.
Looking at the sadness that flashed in his eyes under the snow, Hachiman felt that the words came to his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
"Because of the experience, I understand that in that situation, people's psychology either chooses to resist or choose to swallow their anger, but no matter what, that shy personality will change." Snow continued.
Looking at the woman in front of him, known as the "Flower of Kaolin", Hachiman gradually recalled his childhood experience under the snow in the original book.
When Xue Nai was in the sixth grade of elementary school, he was very popular with the boys around him because of his excellent appearance and excellent grades, but he was also isolated because of the jealousy of the girls of the same level, and he had the experience of hiding his slippers 60 times, of which 50 times were girls.
It was this experience that made the snow under the snow what it is today.
And it was precisely because of his experience under the snow that Hachiman couldn't find the words to refute it, so he had to say:
"I'll go back today, and I'll solve this problem in a better way than you."
With that, Hachiman left the department.
……
"I'm back"
When Hachiman returned home, he saw that his sister was already preparing dinner.
Seeing his brother returning, Komachi said happily:
"Welcome back, wash your hands and get ready for dinner"
Smelling the aroma of the food, Hachiman's originally low mood gradually improved.
"I started"
As these words fell, Hachiman picked up his chopsticks and stretched them out for the meal......
After eating, Komachi suddenly asked:
"Tell me, brother, what happened today?"
"Nothing happened," Hachiman disguised.
"Hey, brother, we are also family members who have lived for more than ten years, I have long understood your habits, and it is impossible to lie in front of Komachi. This sentence scored very well in Komachi's heart. Komachi said with a smile.
Looking at Komachi's pure smile, Hachiman's mood slowly relaxed, and he said:
"Can you hear me a little bit?"
"Of course, I'm listening"
……
Next, Hachiman told all about Chinatsu......
After listening, Komachi thought for a while and said:
"Brother, the reason why you are in a bad mood is because you think that Sister Xuexia's actions are a bit too cruel, but because of Sister Xuexia's experience when she was a child, you don't know how to respond, right?"
"Well, that's probably it," Hachiman replied.
"Hmm~, actually, do I think there is any point in arguing with your sister under the snow? What matters is the wishes of the parties, and if the parties really don't want to, she can withdraw at any time," Komachi said.
"Ah, yes, it's really Chinatsu's own opinion that matters," Hachiman said with a sudden realization.
With that, Hachiman immediately made a call to Chinatsu.
"Hey, who is it?" After a while, Qianxia's voice was heard.
"It's me, Hachiman"
"Hey, Biqi Gujun, what's wrong with why it's late?"
"Qianxia, are you convenient now? Can you come out for a while? I have something very important to tell you. ”
"Alas~alas~alas, what does important~important thing mean"
Hearing the intermittent sound on the phone, Hachiman's mind came to mind of a red-faced girl holding the phone, looking at a loss.
"It's not something important, it's something important that you have commissioned," Hachiman explained.
"Oh, okay, can we meet in the park next to my house?" Chixia asked.
"Well, yes, I'll see you later"
After saying that, Hachiman hung up the phone and said to Komachi:
"Now I'm going to go out for a while"
"Well, let's go, brother," Komachi said with a smile.
……
When Hachiman arrived at the park, he saw that Chinatsu was already waiting there, so he said:
"Sorry for the wait"
"It's okay, I just arrived," Chixia said softly.
"So, Biqi Gu-kun, what is the important thing you are talking about?" Chixia asked suspiciously.
"Listen, Qianxia, the photography department is actually an 'empty shell' club, and the four people in it are actually not good at photography, they just want to unilaterally call you, you can quit that club at any time." Hachiman said solemnly.
To Hachiman's surprise, Chixia did not show a look of surprise, but said:
"Actually, I knew it on my first day in the department"
"Then why are you still inside," Hachiman asked, puzzled.
"Because I want to try to change myself on my own, and I don't want to always rely on Yukishita and Hachiman," Chinatsu replied.
"It's okay, since I've taken over your commission, I'm bound to help you, so you can rely on me as much as you want," Hachiman said, patting his chest.
"Biqi Gu-kun, you are really gentle, ordinary people will do so much for others," Qianxia muttered to herself.
"Huh? Chinatsu, did you just say anything," Hachiman asked.
"No, you heard me wrong," Chixia explained.
"Now, Hachiman, do you know my favorite quote from 'The Wind Rises'?" Chinatsu asked, facing Hachiman.
"Well, I don't know," Hachiman replied honestly.
"Actually, I like the opening sentence of this book the most - even if the wind rises, life will not give up. No matter how difficult life is, as long as you don't give up, you will always get better. Chixia said.
"You said yes, Hachiman, so please let me stay in the photography department for a while."
Looking at the girl in front of him, Hachiman had an emotion of "admiration" for the first time.
This may be Chixia's own insistence......
