Chapter 23: Through (3)

"Well, don't you really stand up?"

Looking into her eyes, I stiffened a little, but I just stood up like that. It was a young girl who spoke, with almost sickly white skin, white like curdled milk. Her left eye was covered by the hair in front of her, a pale pink color that seemed to bloom in the autumn breeze as if the cherry blossoms were blooming against the season.

She seems to be a little taller than Li Xinmu, and I had this feeling at first glance when I was still on the ground.

But when I got up, I got a very heartbreaking fact.

She doesn't seem to be much shorter than me.

Li Xinmu's height is a definite 158, which she said personally. Actually, this should be the normal height of a girl, but the thing that gives me a headache is that I am not really tall.

I'm still in the growth period, well, so it definitely doesn't matter if I'm 168 tall!

And the girl in front of her looked like 166.

It makes me a little uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?"

"Ah, not really."

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"Ah, not really, ahem."

"But you're staring at me."

The girl, who was only a little shorter than me, bent down a little and stretched out her hand to the cat not far away, and the cat reacted very differently from me, it did not hesitate, unhurriedly, and gracefully walked with a real cat step, rubbing against the girl's hand.

Tsk, although I understand that I have only met this cat for the first time, but somehow I have already lost in the upper place!

But then I noticed something that was not quite normal, and there was a bandage around the girl's forearm, which was exposed.

What is this? Is Secondary 2 sick? Is that so?

"Ah, hello, my name is He Xi, the second class of high school."

"Ah, senior sister."

I felt a sense of failure in another dimension, and although age was not a big problem, I felt that I would be sad if I was called a junior.

"Poof, what's that tone?"

This senior sister named He Xi smiled lightly, which made me a little more uncomfortable.

"Hmmmm, ah, Senior Sister He!"

"So what's your name?"

"Hmm, Lu, Lu Yu, the first class of high school."

She really looks good when she laughs.

She had picked up the cat and stroked it gently, and the cat narrowed its eyes as if it was enjoying it. This kind of picture is too beautiful, in the corner of the school, only I see such a picture. A young girl gently hugs a beautiful cat, her pink hair swaying gently in the wind, like a cherry blossom in full bloom.

Senior Sister He is very weak, this is the first impression I get, whether it is her appearance, or tone and voice, it is the feeling of being weak. It made me forget that she was actually that older than me, and that this weak posture is everyone's weakness.

Her voice was like a breeze blowing, the warm breeze of spring, but without any strength. I also have a new understanding of the word "spring breeze", and talking to her is like bathing in the gentleness of the spring breeze.

But there is also a deep sense of powerlessness that makes me a little confused. In her gentle voice, as if something was mixed in with it, I have no way to explain it, it may be my delusion.

But the feeling lingers.

I would love to ask about the cat though, especially the hollow in its ears.

But I still didn't ask, and even though I had a specific reason for this, there was still nothing I could do to destroy the environment.

"What do you think of it?"

"It's beautiful."

He Xi didn't look at me, she gently kissed the cat's forehead, as if talking to herself.

"yes, how pretty."

The visual shock brought by heterochromatic pupils is intense, and those eyes seem to be peeking into everyone's heart. In these different colored eyes, one green and one blue, I saw the amorous nature of this cat.

It seemed to wonder, and although the wound no longer hurt, its eyes told me that there was still a place where the pain would never go away.

That's its eyes, that's its heart.

He Xi bent down again and put the cat down, her slender figure made me a little worried, afraid that it would break like this.

"The ······"

"Its ears, right?"

Actually, what I wanted to ask was that it was a little late and I wanted to go home, but since I had spoken it for me, I didn't choose to refuse.

"You know what?"

Her eyes were a little blurry, and her eyes, which were originally crystal clear and green, seemed to melt, and finally turned into tears in the corners of her eyes.

"I know, I know."

Her tone was still soft, and full of that feeling of powerlessness, and the spring breeze finally turned into the sound of rustling leaves.

I felt a terrible sin, and it would have been better if I had said that what I wanted to ask was not about the ears. It didn't make sense, but I felt guilty.

The cherry blossoms fall from the trees, beautiful and sad.

"It's okay, it's okay if you don't say it."

It was still sunset, and I felt helpless, a helplessness in the face of an even more helpless existence.

“······”

“······”

"That." &"That's right"

We seemed to be walking the same path, which surprised me a little.

I pushed my bicycle, which had been labeled with a note saying "refuse to steal", and finally met the weak girl at the school gate.

No, it's another encounter.

"I'm sorry!"

Huh?

"Why say I'm sorry, don't make such a nonsensical apology!"

Unconsciously, my tone began to change from the original awe of the senior sister to pure complaining, is the distance between people so easy to shorten? Then why can't cats, it's really the reason why they can't communicate, if they can talk to cats.

Ahem, what was I thinking.

"Well, are you going this way too?"

She tilted her head, her eyes like the waters of a lake in March, clear and green.

"Actually, that's what I asked."

I laughed a little, and she was also pushing the bike, and the bike was obviously better looking than me, which gave me the urge to change cars.

Ahem, it's going to be marketed, it's not good.

"Do you ride every day?"

Isn't this nonsense?

"Well, what about you?"

"Me too, I don't live far away, I walk too slowly, and it's too annoying to take a car."

"Each other, each other."

“·····”

“·····”

Hey, Lu Yu, find a way to say something!

Otherwise, this time home will become a silent 30-minute walk!

We were all pushing, but none of us were on it. In addition, I had a hunch in my heart that grew stronger with the passage of time and the shortening of my distance from home.

She's still next to me.

And I seemed to be able to see the embarrassment on her fair face.

Ahem, is that really the case?

That day, Lu Yu knew for the first time that it was not only the old people who were queuing up to measure blood pressure in his community, but also a senior sister from the same school.
