Xia Jing himself also understands that the righteous and strict rhetoric is just his own defense.

In fact, in his heart, he can't forgive the other party at all.

He wouldn't do anything to hurt the other person, but if he could be as sarcastic and sarcastic as he could, he would.

"Ah, why do you say that?"

Xia Jing said coldly: "Maybe there is nothing wrong with you, but what you do is really weird, it makes people feel terrifying, it's a monster, Fang Yuan's matter is completely your fault!" ”

Hearing this, Li Qi fell into a short silence.

Xia Jing didn't speak, and kept staring coldly at Li Qi, whose expression became sad.

Long......

“…… Is it? ”

Li Qi spoke first, breaking the awkward silence.

"Sure enough, Ajing, you are no exception......"

As Li Qi said this, he suddenly burst into tears, and tears flowed down like a bank.

Looking at the crying and sad Li Qi, Xia Jing felt a little guilty in his heart.

There was also a slight pain in the heart.

"Ah Jing, even you say I'm a monster, but I'...... I like humans a lot, and I've made a lot of friends, so can't that? ”

"What's the matter with me!"

Driven by feelings of sympathy and anger, Xia Jing roared to himself.

"Ah Jing, I also treat you as a friend, I like you very much! But...... I don't really know what to do. Those who are important to me may all die because of your relationship! So...... So I just want you to answer my question! What the hell happened to my sister and Riko...... If I don't know the answer, I'll ......"

Ahhh That's it.

If he could, Xia Jing also wanted to trust them.

Li Qi, who is always weak and silly, but has a gentle personality. An Ye, who is bold and can call him a brother like a buddy, and Ye Ya, who is proud of Fang Yuan.

None of them are bad guys, and Xia Jing doesn't want them to betray his impression of them at all.

"I hate that I was born with this body."

Li Qi said in a crying voice.

"Even if I'm chatting with everyone at school or hanging out together, I always have a pimple in my heart. When I think that I have unspeakable secrets and no one knows the real me, I feel as if I don't have half a friend. So...... So, I took the courage to confess, huh? ”

Li Qi seemed to be talking to himself. It's like talking to a third party other than Xia Jing.

"I thought this person could be trusted, so I confessed. I confessed to the other party that I was not human, and I also presented evidence. But it still failed. I freaked out and was told that I was a monster......"

"Hey...... Wait a minute. ”

When Xia Jing heard this, he realized that something was wrong.

- Have you ever had the courage to confess?

Xia Jing did show a rejection attitude towards Li Qi just now, yes. The problem is that Xia Jing didn't know from her own mouth that she belonged to the same clan, but only after reading Anye's list. Besides, I don't know what "evidence" there is.

That...... Who did she confess to?

Li Qi muttered words while groping for things in his school bag.

"I like humans."

She raised her head and looked at Xia Jing.

That look was different from the usual Hizaki.

"But I hate humans the most. I've been working hard to be loved by everyone, and I insist on pretending to be cheerful to make everyone happy...... But as soon as I knew that I was different, I immediately turned my face and didn't recognize anyone. Eh, why can't you accept me? I've tried so hard, why can't I?

It's just that kind of ...... Is it important to have a gloomy and introverted personality and never try to deal with others? Because she's also human? Unforgivable. It's unforgivable, right? ”

“…… Li Qi, it's hard to ......"

She pulled out a cloudy black metal fan from her bag.

"Don't you ......?"

"We met in cram school when we were in junior high school, and we became good friends all at once, and then I fell in love with her. She is different from me, who is just doing superficial work, she is really cheerful and lively, and as long as she is with her, she will be very happy. Xia Jing should be no stranger to her, right? Because the title 'Ah Jing' was originally used by her. ”

When Xia Jingsheng was called like this by Li Qi for the first time when he was in high school, he did have a sense of déjà vu. But there has never been a shortage of people who have called themselves this before, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

Deceitful. This can't be true.

It turned out that the person had been close to his eyes, how could this be-

Li Qi, who opened the fan, took a step towards Xia Jing with a frozen sneer.

"I'm sorry I lied to you about something. I...... The ceremony has already been performed. ”

Her fingers holding the fan looked extraordinarily white.

That's right. The girl's skin was also very white.

The height is also close. It was about the same height as Xia Jing, who had not yet grown taller at that time.

At that time, I was often talked about my height.

You haven't grown taller yet, have you? I wonder you've stopped developing. Alas, what do you think?

Xia Jing began to think back. It was the second semester of the first year of junior high school.

She didn't care that Fang Yuan, who was suddenly thrown a topic, was overwhelmed, but that was also her unique intimate performance. I probably want to start a topic and let the two people who haven't officially met a few times talk about it.

In this way, maybe Fang Yuan has been interested in herself since then.

I remember one time when I accidentally said something like "That girl feels so gloomy", it made Pear a little angry and said, "Please, people are good girls." Considerate and gentle.,Personality and strong.,It's the opposite type of me.,It's so cute! ”

I don't understand Fang Yuan's charm, which proves that Ah Jing is still just a hairy boy-she said again.

“…… Pear. ”

"That's right, Ah Jing."

Li Qi smiled.

"Lili, she's right here. Who taught her to reject me...... I had to use the robbery. ”

Did you kill her?

"Are you even ...... Fang Yuandu? ”

"I didn't take the lead."

Li Qi ignored Xia Jing's hope to hear her say no in person, and his attitude was simply affirmative.

The person who proposed it was a student in the same grade of the volleyball club, because she was unhappy with Fang Yuan's classmates. I don't know the details, the reason seems to be that the boy she likes confessed to Fang Yuan's classmate, but was rejected. It's boring, right? Humans really have enough of it.

So, actually, I didn't want to join. But...... Later, I learned that person was the 'good friend' that Riri often talked about, and I couldn't help but want to test it. Is Fang Yuan as strong and gentle as Lili praised? Is it more valuable than me to be a friend? ”

The fan was gently waved by Li Qi's hand.

At the same time, a transparent and sharp object was lifted and slashed across Xia Jing's face. Xia Jing reflexively reached out and touched it, and the pain on his face slowed down and struck. It turned out that there was a cut on his cheek.

"It's called silver."

Is it one of the so-called ritual items?

The iron fan let out a low sound.

"The pear pear was also killed by it. And Ah Jing too...... Ah Jing, who rejected me, will also die under this fan. ”

Li Qi's face lost a smile.

The classmate who was usually stupid and always smiling is gone.

"It's ...... Why? ”

In Xia Jing's heart, sorrow and pain are far greater than anger and resentment.

The prisoner who killed the pear. One of the murderers who killed Fang Yuan.

Obviously, the object of hatred is in front of him, but what envelops Xia Jing's heart is only a sense of emptiness. It's the same as when I first learned that my sister and Riko were missing—it was a feeling of someone close to me disappearing.

I was so eager to know the truth before, but now I feel that I should not pursue it if I knew it was like this.

"Farewell, Ajing. I shouldn't have expected that much. ”

I'm afraid that just like Xia Jing, who feels betrayed, Li Qi also feels that he has been betrayed, right?

Am I going to die like this? Just when Xia Jing was thinking like this in a daze-

“…… Call it a day. ”

An inexplicably arrogant but childish voice behind him brought him back to his senses.

"Leave Xia Jing's side...... Li Qi. ”

Li Qi's hand holding up the iron fan also stopped.

"What are you two doing? Is. ”

Ye Ya's tone sounded like a sigh, and at the same time, it also carried a sad charm.

Li Qi, who looked stunned, said the person's name.

"Ye Ya ......"

Her jet-black hair hangs straight down her back, complemented by a pure white antique dress with a red peony pattern.

She approached slowly, then ......

…… As if he wanted to protect Xia Jing, he stood in front of Li Qi.

"I'm sorry, Xia Jing."

Ye Ya turned his neck and showed a lonely smile on the side of his face.

"I'm not going to make excuses. Anai was indeed human...... It must be harsh to your ears. ”

"Ana, Ben is a maid who serves the elder sister of Miss Ya."

A female voice came from behind with staccato speech. It's Ana.

"The one who made Anai is the former patriarch. It is said that I left my last words before I died, and I did this voluntarily. ”

After finishing speaking, Anai bowed to Xia Jing and apologized: "It's me, I can't explain clearly." ”

The huge white wooden box behind her shook as well.

"Xia Jing, there is only one thing I hope you can understand. Anai is not what you say she is. She was not only the day my father, mother and sister were killed, but she was also the lifesaver who helped me get out of trouble, and at the same time the only ...... I have at the moment Family. ”

Xia Jing was speechless.

Before thinking about the question of belief and unbelief, I was already overwhelmed by her momentum.

Ye Ya's eyes and voice were so straightforward and clear. If she could lie with such a look, it would only be that this guy must be a rare fraudster of our time.

"It seems that our family's ugliness has caused you trouble. Is the injury okay? ”

"It's, it's okay."

"Great." After Xia Jing nodded reflexively, Ye Ya said with a smile. With an expression that seems to feel relieved from the bottom of my heart.

"So...... Li Qi. ”

Ye Ya reconfronted Li Qi.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Her face sank.

The aura exuded by Ye Ya and the previous whole reversal was not an exaggeration to say that it was harsh.

"I didn't want to believe it...... Is the result real? ”

"What...... Is it? I don't understand ......."

In comparison, Li Qi's appearance is obviously very embarrassed.

"I ...... It's just that...... I just quarreled with Ah Jing......"

Ye Ya interrupted the unjustified quibble and began to investigate.

"Say! The day I hid here. I put several stickers in the building with a description of my nest in unintelligible characters. The person who found the sign was Anno, and she seemed to tear it off immediately after reading it. After all, the information can't be leaked to the people of the prosperity faction. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Yawaner smiled and said: "This move is really verbose. ”

"Later...... Anno obviously notified you of this news through some text message. But what are you doing? ”

"I ...... In the ......"

"'I'm really sorry I didn't notice the notification.'" That's what you said in the first place, right? But is that really the case? If so, why did it ...... that day? Will you not participate in the bullying of Fang Yuan in the art classroom? ”

"Hey, what do you mean by that...... Yes? ”

Xia Jing couldn't help but ask.

Ya replied, "I have listened to all your previous conversations. It seems that you also have a share of the gang that usually bullied Fang Yuan. The problem is, I didn't hear you at all when I was hiding that night...... You knew I was hiding there, didn't you? That's why I didn't join them. ”

Li Qi trembled in shock. Was it said by Ye Ya?

"And, how did you run to school that day? The village was hit by a fire, and the whereabouts of everyone in my family, including me, were unknown. Not only the Prosperity faction, but also the companions who support our family have all asked for leave from the school to search for our whereabouts, except for you; and leaving the village to live, and the attitude of how to deal with the sudden accidents of the family...... Anno only. ”

Indeed, on Friday Day, Li Qi looked no different than usual.

It's really not quite right to think about it now. The village has been burned down, how can you still come to school as if nothing happened? And even if someone in the class mentions the fire, she has the impression that her face will not change.

"Anno contacted you at dusk when he learned of my hiding place, so that the news could spread. But you didn't hear back, so she set out to rescue me. It's just that when she arrived, I had just finished the ceremony, and Xia Jing had fainted. ”

Ye Ya looked at Xia Jing teasingly and smiled, but his expression and aura immediately exuded a sharp aura.

"Actually...... I will only let you go to school alone today, it was Lin Yu's suggestion. ”

Lin Yu ...... She? ”

I've never heard this name Xia Jing, probably from the same clan, right?

She said that if Li Qi was a traitor, he might take this opportunity to contact the Prosperity faction. But I'm against it, huh? Because I don't believe you'd do such a thing. ”

"Hey, what about Anno?"

"I'm sorry, Natsujing. Anno is in charge of monitoring you and Li Qi under my orders. Leaving Li Qi alone, I'm worried that you'll be implicated by those Prosperity faction people, so I have to make this decision. ”

Xia Jing didn't realize that he was being watched at all. Maybe it's a wonderful item called something.

"Anyway...... The ending was completely different from what I expected, and it turned out to be the way it is. ”

After muttering softly, Ye Ya fell silent for a while.

The intelligence and Ye Ya's soft exclamation were inversely proportional, flooding Xia Jing's mind.

Xia Jing couldn't absorb the situation in an orderly manner. What's going on in short?

On the day Fang Yuan died, Li Qi was not at the scene.

The reason is that she betrayed Ye Ya and her family. So does this mean that at that time, she was too difficult to deal with just to avoid her betrayal being exposed, so she didn't have time to participate in the game of bullying her classmates?

If Li Qi is really like this, then it also indirectly proves that An Ye has nothing to do with Fang Yuan's bullying. Ye Ya is naturally the same - everything is a misunderstanding caused by Xia Jing's horns.

However, the murderer of the pear is definitely Li Qi. In addition, Fang Yuan has been bullied for a long time, and Li Qi's participation is also a fact.
