As they grow up, everyone has their own dreams, and this is true of Haki, and this is also true of Winter.

"Is the way to let free growth first and then suddenly tell the truth gentle, or cruel?" Spirited the tea brewed by Haki, and continued to listen to Haki's next story.

…

"Princess." Rin Dong brought a bowl of noodles, and after Haki hid in, he hadn't eaten for a long time.

“… If you can, please call me as you always do. ”

"Yes... It's time to eat, Hayaki. "Rindon puts the noodles in front of Hachiki... Haaki was hungry early, but he wasn't in the mood to eat.

“… Am I feeling sorry for myself again? Haaki said softly: "I've experienced so many things, but I'm still very fragile, and I really haven't grown at all." ”

"No, what Haaki did made Rin Dong very envious."

Rin Dong had already told Saki about her, so Saki knew that Rin Dong and himself had a similar fate and were inextricably linked.

"The moment Rin Dong learned about it, he also thought about resisting... That is, to run away. ”

However, Winter didn't have the courage to do it, even if it was just to escape from the tragic reality that didn't give Winter any choice at all... Winter can only obey. ”

Haaki was lying on the window, looking outside, still familiar with the street, but at this time he felt that he was about to be separated from himself.

"Do we really have no choice?"

The period of hiding here has calmed down a lot and made Hayaki think a lot.

"Very early on, Saki didn't know what to do in the future, just spent his life in vain... And now, Haki has a very clear goal, but reality has played a big joke on himself. ”

"Saki wants to be a doctor, not a queen!"

Rin Dong is deeply touched by this, so he tells Hayaki that she also has her own dreams.

It's just that, like Haki, Rin Dong also had to give up his dreams and learn how to be a good captain of the guard instead.

“… I'm sorry. Hakuki said softly: "In a sense, it was the winter of Hayaki that became what it is now. ”

“…”

"Rin Dong will wait," Rin Dong said, "Rin Dong will take care of Haaki until Haki wants to come out." ”

“… Thank you. ”

In this way, Saki hid in Rindong's house for two and a half days, and Rindong didn't tell anyone... Until the situation was a little serious, I went to find Akina.

As a good friend, Rin Dong is very afraid to tell Akina about this, and so does Hayuki.

Also as good friends, at this time, it seems that the only thing that Cold Winter and Saki can rely on is Akina.

"Hachiki at home in the cold winter? Is Winter the Queen's Chief of Guard the heir? ”

Knowing the two things together, Qiu Na's heart was shocked, but he didn't expect the two good friends to have such an identity. At the same time, Qiu Na also dispelled the idea of reporting at the first time, and she wanted to help her friends!

Akina and Hayaki met, and Rin Dong arranged it, but the result couldn't be considered too good.

Hayoki couldn't accept this fact, and couldn't accept that his previous efforts were all in vain, and he finally got such a result.

Akina was also helpless, but Hayaki finally stabilized his mood a little and promised Akina to tell those people where she was. At the very least, don't keep those people in a state of anxiety anymore.

However, Hayaki wouldn't leave the house, and only told the people that she was safe now.

“… To get out of the early minutes, she needs to untie the knot by herself. Akina said so, but there was no good way to unravel it.

Rin Dong kept watching, she also didn't know what to do, or maybe she was even more confused... Perhaps, when he knows about Saki's final decision, Rin Winter will also make his own final decision.

So, Hatsuki and Rin Winter lived together, in this house.

At first, Hakiki had been lying on the window to look at the outside world, and slowly, Hayaki began to pay attention to the situation in the house... In fact, this room was previously Winter's room, and there were a lot of her belongings.

For example, comic books on the table, drawing boards and other items in the corner... That's right, Winter's dream is to become a cartoonist!

"Can you watch these? Winter. While eating, Hayaki asked, pointing to the pile of items in the corner.

Rin Dong heard Haaki's words, lowered his head and was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking. Soon, Rin Dong nodded and agreed to Haki's request.

For Rindon, there is a little secret in that pile of items, although it may not be in the future. If you let Haaki look at it, maybe something will change.

There are a lot of things there, there are books that have been used to study in the winter over the years, there are also many drafts of drawings, and there are some works that the winter likes.

In his free time, Hakuki has been reading these times, so he knows how hard he has worked to learn to draw over the years.

Although, early periods soon discovered that Winter's paintings seem to have a strange direction... Ahem, that's the most important secret. In addition, looking at the traces of these items, Hayaki already knew what kind of effort and time Rin Dong had put into them.

However, once you accept the identity of the successor of the chief of the guard, you can't become a manga artist anymore, and the pain in your heart is quite understandable... When I saw the details of the painting, I thought, 'If I could just disappear like that, I would say,'

When he took a bath at night, Hayaki stopped at the door, looked at Rin Dong who had just come out of the bath, and couldn't help asking, "If you give up your comic career, will Rin Dong be willing?" ”

“…”

"Unwilling." Rin Dong took off the bath towel he used to wipe and looked at the ceiling, his eyes showing mixed emotions.

"But I can't change it." The most helpless thing is this, the whole thing is not transferred by the will of the two little girls.

Just as Natsumi had to leave Fangwen Academy and even leave the city for family reasons, the choices they could make were limited.

“… So, is Winter ready to give up painting like this? ”

"Give up?"

Winter was silent, the girl had given a lot to the comics, and no matter what, she couldn't easily say that she had given up drawing.

"I... Probably... I had to give up being a cartoonist. ”

Looking directly at Haaki, Rin Dong spoke with a hint of trill, but he still said it.

"As the Queen's Chief of Guard, it's really not suitable to be a cartoonist... Besides, what Rinwinter likes is some paintings with strange directions. ”

The last sentence is very interesting, what kind of strange painting is it?

After hearing Rindong's words, Hayaki shook his head at her, and then closed the bathroom door with a lot of helplessness in his eyes.

Listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom, Rin Dong sighed and walked towards the room... Out of the corner of his eye, he swept over the objects, and Rindong closed his eyes and stopped thinking about it.

A few days have passed, and Saki has been living here without leaving the house.

The next morning, Hayaki woke up from his sleep to find that it was cold.

"Winter, are you painting?"

After getting up in the early days, I found that Rindong was painting... For the first time in recent days, Rin Winter has not touched a paintbrush since he knew his identity.

Haaki's voice was not small, but there was no response from Rindon, and it seemed that he didn't hear it. Her expression was very focused, as if she had put aside all her worries and was concentrating on the painting in front of her.

The window was open, and the view outside was easy to see, and Hayaki looked outside and instantly guessed the reason.

It was snowing, and there was a white snow scene outside.

Although it is not goose feathers and heavy snow, such a scene is enough to inspire creation, and it is because of this that the winter has not been written for a long time, right?

Hamaki thought that although he didn't have much of a chance to write after becoming a successor completely, he was fine now... Walking over gently, Hayaki wanted to look at the painting created by Rin Dong from the side.

“…”

Hayaki's eyes widened and his lips moved slightly, as if he was frightened.

The sudden heavy snow inspired the bitter winter, but it's not the right direction, right?

The content of the painting is not complicated, it is also a scene in the snow, but why do the characters wear so few clothes?

“…”

Hey, this is the eighteen prohibitions, right? It's definitely eighteen forbidden!

Hayuki's face turned red... I really don't know how to do it in Rinwinter, so I draw this kind of scene with a calm expression.

I don't look at the paintings of Winter anymore... I know the orientation of Rindong's creation, but I still go to see it, is Haki being reduced after staying in the house for a long time?

"Good, done!"

Rin Dong finally put down the pen and breathed a long sigh of relief... Looking out the window at the snow that had stopped, I felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction, and the negative emotions that had accumulated during this time disappeared all at once.

Sure enough, it's the best drawing!

A look of joy appeared on Rinwinter's face, and a rare smile that he hadn't seen in a while... Early Ji saw it on the side, and in a trance, it coincided with the previous figure of Winter.

Rindon's personality is a bit introverted, and she rarely communicates with outsiders outside of Akina, and Hayaki is one of her few friends. However, when we get along together, in fact, Rindon often smiles.

That smile was blissful, just like it is now... Unfortunately, when the excitement subsided, the smile of happiness and satisfaction disappeared.

"Hachi..."Rin Dong remembered the scene just now, and said very uneasily, "I'm sorry, just now..."

"Hamaki understands."

A girl named Hayaki walked to the window and stretched out her hand, grabbed a handful of snow from the edge of the window, and soon turned into ice water and ran away.

"Winter likes to draw so much, is it really good to give up?"

Without turning around, Hayaki stood at the window, as if asking Rindong, and as if talking to himself.

Winter was silent, of course she didn't want to, that's why she was so uncomfortable all the time!

“…”

"I want to go out."

The girl who hasn't seen the light of day for a long time, when she says this, it means that she will accept all this.

"But, Hakuki..."

Rin Winter is a little flustered, and it seems that Saki has already made a decision, but she is still a little unprepared... Especially today, it is even more difficult to give up again.

Hayoki came to Rin Dong and hugged her tightly.

"Don't give up drawing... Promise Hayaki not to give up drawing! ”

It was as if he had been practicing penance in the cave for a few days, and after seeing the winter painting, he was finally no longer confused.

Winter may no longer be able to be a cartoonist, but that doesn't mean he can't create anymore... Hayoki later regretted that he asked for Winter so much at the time, and every time he wanted to be reprimanded because of the inadaptability of the content, he would be blocked by this sentence.

It's the same with Haki, the previous efforts will not be in vain... Early minutes became a doctor to treat Harusato's illness, but it is not necessary to be a doctor to treat Harusato's illness.

It's okay to be a queen, Saki knows that it may be difficult, but Saki has already communicated, it's all her own choice!

Winter felt the embrace of Haki, and the heart that Haki wanted to convey... Obviously, the rumor arrived, and Rindong also made a decision.

The two beautiful girls hugged each other and cried in the house, and then walked out together.

“…”

"Early Age, Winter..."Akina, who had been in a state of worry, finally relieved and patted her chest.

"Princess Hachiki, Chief of the Winter Guard." The old man had been waiting outside, and when he saw the early age and cold winter that came out, he showed a relieved expression.

"Take me to the Queen... My mother. ”

After Haaki came out, there was a natural rise of nobility on his body, and he was no longer an ordinary female high school student in the past!

"Yes, princess." Rindong, like Hachiki, also accepted his role the moment he came out.

…

Back to reality, in the room of Winter.

"Ahem, can I let go?" After listening to the story, Lie was silent for a long time and said this sentence.

In the room, Ryu and Saki hug each other, mimicking the scene before Saki and Rin Dong leave the room. Although Ryu didn't quite understand why he did this, and it was inconvenient to take pictures, Haaki's request was not refused.

At this point in the story, it also came to an end, and Hayaki gently said the last paragraph after letting go of the arms that were wrapping around.

Hamaki met with her mother, the current Queen, and made a pact.

In fact, the situation is not so bad that it is necessary to let Hatsuki take the throne, and the current queen is fine. So, there is still some time for Haaki, at least until he graduates from high school, and he can still be free.

Although it can't be compared to the freedom it once was, and you have to start learning a lot of things related to being a queen, it's also rare.

After the dust settled, Hayaki decided to record it all, so he asked the support department, and the rest of the story was to relive the process with Lie.

“…”

It's a long story, and Lie feels very relaxed after listening to it, and the busy days are finally coming to an end.

I take a lot of photos in the camera, and when I get back, I will sort them out, and I will wash out the most important ones and make a thick album.

Ryu lay on the floor, and Hayaki sat down with a smile and looked at each other.

“…”

Is this the end of the story? Of course not, even if Hayaki accepts all this, Lie doesn't think it's a happy ending for everyone.

Stretching out his palm, the corners of Lie's mouth went up... The story of the early age is over, and next, it's time to listen to Lie!

"Hayaki, if you can, I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to visit Haruri, okay?"

"Huh?" Hayoki was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded and agreed with Lie's words.

Mabe. Haruri, and Qi. Natsumi, Nomaki. Autumn, winter... What a beautiful story, wouldn't it be a shame to end like this?
