Chapter 167: Pace
Back home, Tsukasa Aoki looked at the three unread text messages on his phone, and still clicked on them with some discouragement.
These three messages were all sent by Xinmei Zhaoqiao, and the words were full of apologies and sadness.
"Si Jun, I'm sorry, my brother is a big idiot, I've already scolded him, Si Jun don't be angry."
"I messed up on today's date, sorry, I'm really sorry."
"I will definitely compensate Si Jun well next time, please forgive my brother's Meng Lang."
Aoki Tsukasa looked at Teruhashi's sincere words, and only hummed and replied halfway: "Forget it, we can't count it as a date, it's just a game between classmates, you and your brother make it clear, he shouldn't be so angry." ”
Aoki didn't think the word dating was appropriate, so he pointed it out.
As a result, Teruhashi Xinmei on the other end of the phone only felt that her heart snapped and shattered, and she sat on her pink princess bed with a dull face: Why did Si Jun say that this was not a date? Obviously, we drank coffee together, went shopping, and played games......
Is it because he hates me?
It's over.......
Zhaoqiao Xinmei wanted to cry a little, buried her head in the quilt angrily, and slapped the pillow with both hands: "It's all your fault, stupid brother!" Why are you doing this? ”
Outside her door, Teruhashi Shin was still chattering and explaining: "Xinmei-chan, don't be angry, he's just your classmate, but I'm your Ernie sauce!" ”
"Hate you! I don't want Ernie sauce like you! Teruhashi Xinmei only felt sad and angry in her heart, her brother was still making trouble here, and immediately lost her temper with him, and shouted to him through the door: "Don't bother me, go away!" ”
Listening to the sound of Teruhashi Shin outside the door, Teruhashi Xinmei hugged her mobile phone and cried with a sad face, kicking the quilt in annoyance, not knowing how to make up for her relationship with Aoki Tsukasa at all.
Si Jun must be very sad now, right? Must be disappointed, right? You must feel inferior because of your brother's words, right? I've managed to get to where I am now, damn it...... Ahhh
Teruhashi Xinmei was irritable and wanted to shout.
And what about Tsukasa Aoki at this time?
Tsukasa Aoki knocked on the door of the dome and asked in a soft tone, "Dome?" What are you doing? ”
The matter of Teruhashi Konomi has long been left behind by him - anyway, Teruhashi Kokomi also apologized, and as for his brother, it is estimated that he will not be seen in the future, and Aoki Tsukasa is not too angry.
A muffled voice came from inside the door: "Play games." ”
"Can I go in?" After Aoki finished speaking, he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside.
Pushing open the door, the dome was still in the familiar old position, sitting in front of the computer and operating the mouse and keyboard to play. Her small body was shrunk in a chair, her silver hair wrapped around her body, like a delicate porcelain doll, and there was an indescribable sense of fragility in her beauty.
This time, the game played is not the 'Last Survivor' that I played before, but a MOBA-type battle game. Aoki Tsukasa doesn't know much about this.,But it seems to be similar to the LOL that I've seen others play a long time ago.。
Dome controls a beautiful girl with two guns, and she is killing all sides - anyway, Aoki Tsukasa sees that she has killed those small soldiers one after another, and she should not be weak.
Aoki Tsukasa came up behind her, sat on the floor and leaned against the edge of the bed, his tone with a hint of anticipation, "Is Qiong interested in going out for something together in the evening?" I just have something to find Wumore Liuli, just that black cat. The café where she works seems to have a lot of good food. ”
Tsukasa Aoki just doesn't want her to stay at home every day.
Dome replied nonchalantly while playing the game, "No, I don't want to go out." ”
"I stay at home every day, I don't like to open the windows, and the whole person is going to stink." After Aoki finished speaking, he saw that the dome turned his head angrily and glanced at himself.
"I didn't...... And, Sco, can you talk to me without talking to me like a child? After Qiong finished speaking, he seemed to be afraid that Si would misunderstand something, and added: "Words like this metaphor are usually said to five or six-year-old children." ”
Aoki Tsukasa only smiled when he heard this, put his hands on his knees behind her to support his face, and said leisurely: "There is no difference between Dome and a child when he is willful." ”
"......" Qiongqiong glanced at him and did not speak.
"If you don't want me to say that, just clean up and go out with me for a while. Let's go have a drink, eat a cake and come back, and it won't take an hour or two. Aoki tried his best to persuade him, he really didn't want to stay at home every day, even if it was just to go out with him every day and go around the edge of the house, it would be better than now.
Dome sighed, his voice a little tired: "Do you have to go out?" ”
"It's just that I want to go out for a walk with you." Aoki's voice was gentle: "Every day you play games here alone, I don't know what to do to accompany you." ”
The psychological problems of the dome are not something that can be left alone. Tsukasa Aoki wanted to make Dome feel cared for as much as possible, and he thought that would be the best help for her.
“...... I know. After Qiong finished speaking, the sound of tapping on the keyboard was much faster, and he said calmly: "Nasi will go back to the room first, and I will go out after playing the game in a while." ”
Aoki stood up happily when he heard this, looked at her back and smiled, "Then it's decided, I'll wait for you." ”
"Hmm." The dome hummed faintly.
Tsukasa Aoki walked out of the room, gently closed the door for her, and sat in his room holding the medical book and read it carefully.
I don't know how long it took before the door opened on the other side of the dome. Aoki Tsukasa stretched, took the hat and buckled it on his head, and brought the disposable mask given by Teruhashi Komi, wrapped it tightly, and walked out of his room.
As soon as she went out, she saw the dome that had been tied with a double ponytail, holding the black rabbit doll she gave her, standing timidly not far away, with the small bag she had bought before hanging on her shoulder.
The hem of her long white dress showed two small feet with white socks, snow-white forearms were faintly visible on the loose cuffs, and there seemed to be some uneasiness in her eyes on her expressionless face.
Tsukasa Aoki smiled and nodded at her, "Ready?" ”
"Hmm." Qiong glanced at him, his eyes were a little tangled, he turned around and wanted to go downstairs first, but after taking two steps, he stopped again, lowered his head and whispered: "I, I suddenly don't want to go again." ”
Aoki Tsukasa walked behind her, reached out and touched her little head, and said softly, "It's okay, let's just go out for a walk, if you feel uncomfortable, we can come back at any time." ”
Qiong pursed his lips when he heard this, didn't say anything more, and walked down the stairs.
Putting on his little black leather shoes, Dome watched Tsukasa Aoki push the door open, took a deep breath, tightened the rabbit doll in his arms, and stepped out of the room.
The late autumn sun was moving earlier than usual, and the sun was already faintly dim, and the dome looked blankly at the familiar and unfamiliar streets around him, and instinctively followed behind Aoki Tsukasa, grabbing the corner of his clothes with one hand.
When Aoki saw her appearance, he was distressed and a little sad, and stretched out his hand and said softly: "Come on." ”
Qiong's fingers twisted tangled on the corner of Aoki's clothes, and slowly stretched out his little hand and put it on Aokiji's somewhat rough big hand.
"Let's go." Aoki Tsukasa smiled at her, took her little hand, and led her slowly into the distance.
"Today, I went to the café with Miao Fujiwara, the friend who came to the house last time, and Kokomi Teruhashi." Tsukasa Aoki recounted the events of the day with her, trying to organize the language and try to use the story to attract Dome's attention.
But Dome just lowered his head, and in his sight, only his small black leather shoes gradually coordinated with Aoki Tsukasa's sneakers, and as he walked, he felt the same peace of mind as he had been in the shopping street.
She was originally very uneasy and frightened, but was dissipated by the warmth from Aoki Tsukasa's hand, and she raised her head, and Aoki's slightly emaciated back looked extremely tall.
Stupid, I said I didn't want to come out.
Because...... That makes me feel like I can't do anything but rely on you.
With a faint sigh, Dome quietly quickened his pace, only to get a little closer to Aoki Tsukasa because of this.

PS: The last chapter before it hits the shelves, let's think about a small theater!
The cold wind was shining, and the author tightened his coat, leaned his back against the wall of the alley, and lowered his hood: "Did you bring something?" ”
"Brought." Another hooded man pulled out a bright silver safe from behind him.
The author entered the password, opened it and looked at it, the paper inside was blown by the wind, making a rattling sound, and the author narrowed his eyes: "Is it enough?" ”
"They have rewarded so much, these manuscripts should be enough." The man nodded.
The author smiled wickedly (emphasis added) and closed the lid of the safe: "Actually, I'm a pigeon..... The tentacle monster, the outbreak on the shelf, is stable. ”
