The morning sun has been rising from the sea level for a long time, and the heat is slightly diffused in the long cloudless sky, but it only adds a little insignificant temperature to the place where the sun touches.

The cold wind was still blowing through the town, not to mention the small cliffs outside the town that had no shelter.

"Hmm......"

As soon as she got out of the alley, the girl behind the island wind shrank slightly, but she didn't slow down her steps, and followed the island wind in front of her.

"Why...... Want to come to this kind of place? ”

The girl behind her asked, looking left and right.

Shima Feng quietly walked to the edge of the cliff, looked at the horizon that had long since turned from bright red to white, let go of the food basket in his left hand, and put it on the edge of the cliff, while he slowly sat on the ground, and then sent his legs out of the cliff.

"Eh......"

But the girl in the back was shocked and seemed to be a little worried.

"Are you afraid of heights?"

Island Wind turned back slightly and asked her.

"If you don't mind, you don't have to get too close."

Then he turned back like this, not forcing the girl to lean over.

"Hmm...... No, it won't. ”

The girl seemed to think for a while, waited for a long time, and then slowly approached Shimafeng and knelt beside Shimafeng.

It's also thanks to the fact that the girl is a ship girl, so she won't feel that the instep of her foot will hurt when she hits the rocky ground of the cliff.

“……”

Then she looked at Shima Feng with a slightly puzzled look, just like she had done in the street before.

"Hoo ......"

Daofeng still understands what she wants to express......

"Why did you come here? ……”

After thinking about it for a while, Daofeng said very quietly:

"It's nothing special, I just think it'...... It's easier to chat in an open area. ”

Daofeng's expression was very serious, and what she said at this time was what she was thinking.

Maybe the girl's opinion was different from the island wind, she just looked at the cliff blankly, and swallowed a little.

Chat in such a place...... Will it be easy?

It's true that I can't quite understand her (Shimakaze)'s thoughts......

However, the island wind in front of him moved his hands behind him slightly, leaned back, looked up at the cloudless blue sky, and shook his slender legs.

The girl was sure that she (Island Wind) did not feel dangerous at all in a place like the cliff.

"That'...... So why...... ...... with everyone."

I think I want to say why the island wind is different from everyone else, and I don't hate myself...... The girl was nervous at this time, or perhaps because she didn't want to talk about it at all, and stopped halfway through speaking.

"Ship mother...... I'm from somewhere else, so it's natural that I don't have the same concept as the people in the town...... At least in our place, the shipwives are very friendly, and there is nothing to hate. ”

Shimakaze naturally said this about something he had never experienced before.

"I've lived here for a few years...... But I don't understand why everyone else hates the ship's mother. ”

What she said before was fake, but every word of what Shimakaze said now was the real doubt in her heart......

When Yan Feng heard the ship girl, he would change all the expressions on his face at this time to indifference, and the people in the restaurant would change their color when they heard the word "ship girl".

Even Ling Yixiao saw a passing ship lady a long time ago, and she would cry for some reason.

So now the island wind suspects that even the scene that almost no one in the town often goes out is also caused by the word "ship mother".

The girl in front of her, after listening to the words of the island wind, her moist face, which had calmed down a little, turned a little pale.

“……”

Both parties were silent, not knowing what the other was doing, because neither could see the other.

"Hmmm......"

It wasn't until another gust of wind blew that the girl on the side of the island wind raised her lowered little head slightly.

"Because only by doing nasty things...... It's going to be hated......"

The girl said such a rightful thing.

“……？”

But the island wind heard something a little bit of meaning.

"In other words, whether you volunteered or not, you have done some so-called 'things' that the residents hate?"

It's so explicit and straightforward.

“……”

Silence is the best response for a girl.

"But if you look at it according to me, you don't look like a person who can do anything bad."

Shima Feng still swung his legs, turned his head sideways to look at the girl, but said very calmly the words that pierced the girl's heart.

"I ......"

Maybe the island wind was right, the girl bit her lip, and the hands pinched on the small skirt used force unnaturally.

But it's not that I'm not convinced by the words of the island wind.

“……？”

Island Wind just said it casually, and she didn't know why the girl was so emotional, she thought that the other party would accept it very calmly, and then asked some other questions.

But after a while, the girl's hands slowly relaxed, as if swallowing her breath, and wiped away the tears that were about to overflow.

"I didn't ...... It's okay. ”

Although the girl said this, the island wind looked like she didn't hear her true intentions.

“…… Forget it, you have your opinion, just don't get too tired. ”

Daofeng looked at the sea level in the distance, and replied so lightly, the girl expected, and everyone else was so perfunctory.

"Hoo ......"

The girl just turned her plea back into the same timidity as usual, and no longer said anything that could save the situation.

Place your hands on the ground at your side and help you get up...... There was no point in the girl continuing the conversation.

Somewhat puzzled, he turned around and silently took the same small steps as before, lowering the same small head.

The cold wind blew, but it was more bitter than when it came.

It's just that the sun's rays are sprinkled, not the same as when he was there.

"Because of how I feel...... It's the same as blowing snow. ”

The silver-haired figure behind her that had never moved made her walk stop again.

When she turned around, the girl realized that the delicate face in front of her was not owned by ordinary people.

Only at the moment when I couldn't speak, I saw that more depressed eyes.

Looking back at the snowy island wind, he no longer made a sound, but turned around again and looked into the distance.

After a long silence......

"No...... If you could, just now...... Let's just not hear it. ”

The words that never trembled were dwarfed by her movements.
