At noon, the first middle school affiliated to Wutong College in the city.

Just after the music of the school day, the crowd at the school quickly disappeared.

In the corridor, a group of active boys held basketballs and walked towards the outside of the school building.

"Hey, it's full, it's full, do you feel that there's something wrong with school, I always feel that something is wrong lately......" A boy shivered for no reason, he looked suspiciously, and then pushed his companion next to him. Seeing that his companion didn't pay attention to him at all, he immediately put his arms around his neck and threatened: "Your sister, you guy didn't listen to me at all!!"

Under this threat of violence, the companion named Keman finally came back to his senses. It seems that he has not been threatened like this once or twice, he skillfully bent his knees and squatted, leaned back to let the person behind him hit the wall of the corridor, and then he triumphantly broke free and mocked: "You know it's powerful, your trick has long been useless!"

"I'll go, it's going to hurt, idiot. The boy hugged his head and shouted.

“...... No way. Keman was obviously a little panicked when he heard the cry of pain, he walked over and rubbed his head: "Kitten, are you okay, did you hit your head......?" By the way, what you just wanted to say, I'll just listen to you. ”

Rubbing his head, which was still a little painful, the boy continued the topic just now: "Do you feel that there is anything wrong with the school, I always feel as if something has changed, it is different from before...... Well, that's it, it's just that there's something different about it!" The more he elaborated, the more certain his tone became.

"Kitten, didn't you wake up and say something stupid!"

"You two goods, I'm serious!! you don't all think I'm talking nonsense!" Seeing that these friends around me are all talking nonsense, the kitten is fried!

"How is it possible, how can you serious kitten talk nonsense!" Another classmate walked up to him with a serious face and said, "We understand...... You haven't woken up yet, you're talking in a dream, aren't you? Hahaha, didn't you say that you didn't sleep well last night when you were in class, and it's normal to talk about your dreams, we understand. Don't worry!" After speaking, he was very righteous and patted him on the shoulder.

"Second goods, you guy doesn't believe me at all!"

"Sleeping Cat~"

"Kitten who can't wake up~"

"Wow, the sleeping cat is going to become a tiger!!" several friends taunted.

Hmph, whoever makes him usually the most proficient in taunting skills, it is rare to have the opportunity to tease him, how can he miss it!

“...... How can it be repaired!"

"Okay, okay, no kidding, since you said there was something wrong, then you can tell me exactly where it is. There's got to be a little bit of a change. Perhaps it was just because the kitten was injured that Keman was a little upset, and he stopped the taunts of several people.

"I really can't say this. The kitten scratched its head and sighed helplessly.

"That's not the end of it. ”

The kitten still didn't give up: "But I always feel that there is a change there, it's different from before!"

Seeing him so sharp, Keman, who was a sworn friend, set his steps and stared at his eyes seriously: "Kitten...... Do you think that change is serious, will it affect our lives?"

"No, probably not. ”

"Will that make it easy for us to pass tomorrow's exam?" he had a headache at the thought of tomorrow's English test.

"How is it possible, you guy is so lazy, you either secretly read novels or sleep in English, I haven't seen you memorize words seriously, and you deserve to fail the exam this time!"

Keman was slightly embarrassed, and muttered in a low voice: 'If something like English hinders world peace, we should resolutely resist it', and then, he calmly spread his hands: "Isn't this over, no matter what the change, good or bad, it will not affect us, and it can't help us, so why bother with it......! Let's go, I have a headache when I talk about exams, and I'm going to play ball!"

“...... That's right. The kitten scratched his head and trotted a few steps to keep up with the three dead friends: "But if you want to pass the exam, it's impossible, dream about it!!"

.........

Life is always like this, every now and then something changes, but this change is in a very wonderful state that it will not affect you and you will not let you notice it. Or maybe you notice it and forget it...... People are always like this, they are only willing to see things they are familiar with, and only this familiar feeling can make them feel inexplicably safe.

In the hallway, a girl looked out the window at the old playground and listened to the teenagers talking.

As a junior high school student, she looks more mature than girls of the same age, with a slender and tall body of 1.66 meters and a simple school uniform, and the whole person exudes a youthful beauty. Her black and green hair was bound by a white streamer, and there was a touch of melancholy on her delicate cheeks, which seemed to be a little annoying.

"Li Qingye, hurry up, you sweep the floor today, you are not allowed to slip !!" Just when the girl was looking at the playground in a daze, a girl who was also wearing a school uniform ran out of the classroom of the junior high school next to her, and complained loudly at her: "You guy was not there when he was on duty last time!"

“...... Aha, is there such a thing?" Aoba came back to his senses, a little embarrassed.

"Of course, I helped you sweep last time, otherwise you will be miserable, and the old class will definitely punish you for sweeping for a whole week!!" Seeing her friend's confused look, the girl suddenly became angry, grabbed her hand and said as she walked: "I really don't know why you guys like flowers and plants so much, don't you feel annoyed to water them every day!"

She pointed to the pot of Wenzhu by the window and said: "Look, there were only a few light poles left in the pot at the school gate, and it was about to be demolished by those boys in front of me.

As she spoke, the girl grabbed Aoba's arm and dragged her to the classroom: "Come and sweep the floor!

"It's snowing, slow down!"

"No, or you'll run out to water those flowers and plants again, and you'll never go back!"

"No, no, no......"

"Really?"

"Well, at least not until the classroom is cleaned. ”

"Well, I knew. ”

.........

In the middle of the old playground, under the plane trees.

"Ahhhh

"It's almost summer, what's so strange. ”

"Who said that, you guy must be a freshman, otherwise you wouldn't have said that!"

"Wasn't it hot in the summer, just kidding!"

"Of course it's hot in the summer, but ah, it used to be very cool under this tree, and when all the hot wind flows into the shade of the tree, the unbearable heat will disappear, and the cool will be comfortable. The man lifted the corner of his coat and wiped his sweat, shook his finger and pointed to the huge plane tree, and said, "You know, my family lives next to the school, and since I was a child, we have been playing under this tree every summer, and it is cooler than other places...... It's really nostalgic. ”

"This guy must have not learned biology well, and he doesn't even know the effects of transpiration......" The man pouted and turned to ignore him. It's cooler under the trees in the summer than elsewhere – this kind of thing is perfectly normal.

Aoba carries a kettle and waters the Sycamore Tree, which is the symbol of Sycamore Middle School.

Taking advantage of her lunch break, she had already watered the two flower beds around her, leaving only this huge plane tree. The nearly fifty-meter canopy of plane trees covers half of the playground, and patches of verdant trees also dance lightly in the wind, bathed in the summer light, as in the past, absorbing too strong sunlight.

When she had finished pouring the water, she reached out and touched the dark brown bark with some sadness.

"Sick?" I don't know if it's an illusion, Aoba thinks that the canopy of this sycamore tree seems to be smaller,

Raising his head, a pillar of light was transmitted from the huge shade of the tree, and the patchwork of light spots was like a charming star in the blue sky and starry in the middle of the night. Closing her eyes slightly, the light of noon passed through the swaying branches and leaves, and fell on her face, warm, not scorching, like the softest stream of warm water, flowing down her cheeks.

Suddenly, a coolness hit.

It seems that there really is a small stream of water falling on her face!

The cool stream flows along the eye into your body and into the depths of your soul.

Aoba opened his eyes and reached out to touch it, but there was nothing.

...... Odd.
