On the other side of the duel with Kazuo Kiriyama and Hayashi Ka - the northern end of the island - is a towering cliff with a steep rock wall that rises high and steep into the sea, and the terrain is treacherous. The height is about 20 meters, and below is the fierce sea water.

At the top of the cliff is a small square, on which a weed of grass grows like a crown. The sound of waves crashing against the shore came up along the cliff face, and the broken waves dispersed into a fine mist, which danced with the breeze.

"Well, those two people? What do you want to do? After a fierce battle with Kazuo Kiriyama, Lin Hua, who was looking for prey, walked to the beach and suddenly saw a man and a woman standing on the edge of the cliff under the searchlight.

These two are the girl who threw the backpack back to Kitano, Sakura Ogawa, and her boyfriend, Kazuhiko Yamamoto.

Now the silver-white moonlight shone gently on the two of them.

Their calves left the ground and hung over the edge of the cliff.

Ogawa Sakura's right hand and Yamamoto's left hand were quietly clasped together.

The two walked slowly along the edge of the cliff.

They are a recognized pair of lovers in the class, perhaps because of their complementarity, compared to the stubborn Ogawa Sakura, the current Kazuhiko Yamamoto seems to be more depressed.

Suddenly, Sakura Ogawa stopped and looked into the distance.

Ahead is a cliff.

"It's so quiet!" Looking up at the night, I don't know if it's a sign of farewell, countless bright stars in the sky, hanging above the sky, Ogawa Sakura whispered.

As far as girls are concerned, her hair is cut very short, her forehead is wide and full, and her side face has beautiful lines that make her look like she is smiling. The stature is very tall, and the overall impression is slender.

Now she sits with her back straight, as usual.

When I found out that Kazuhiko Yamamoto had finally arrived here, the two of them hugged for a while, and her body was like a wounded bird, and there were bursts of trembling.

"yes, it's quiet." Like Sakura Ogawa, looking at the sky, Kazuhiko Yamamoto pursed his lips and replied.

Except for the bridge of his nose, his facial features are still upright.

The gaze that was originally looking at the sky dome was slightly withdrawn to look at Ogawa Sakura.

In the moonlight, there was a large dark sea, and the shadows of darker islands were scattered among them, and the vast land could be seen in the distance.

Whether it is the shadow of the island or the land, it is dotted with shining lights.

That large piece of land should be Honshu Island, right? A little later, it was half past three in the morning.

Between the lights that emerge in the darkness, there must be many people who are still immersed in a peaceful dreamland.

Maybe there are a few candidates of my age who are staying up late to study.

It all seemed like it was right in front of them, but for the two of them at this time, it was no longer a world within their reach.

"I'm sorry, Sakura," Kazuhiko Yamamoto said, standing behind with some self-shame and guilt, "I can't help. ”

"It's okay, it's enough for you to come with me. And I'm very happy to be here, to have this kind of luck to meet you. Smiling lightly, Sakura Ogawa shook her head and said

"And this, thank you so much." Sakura Ogawa and Kazuhiko Yamamoto held hands, and she looked at the small bouquet in her other hand and said.

It was Kazuhiko Yamamoto who came here and met Ogawa Sakura, and picked it on the way to walk, and put it together in a bunch with several small flowers, which looked like a white alfalfa.

The tiny stems are densely populated with petals that look like cheerleaders' balls.

It's not a gorgeous flower, but that's the only thing it has at the moment.

"What will happen to us?" Kazuhiko Yamamoto asked with a little drift in his eyes, his words full of fear for the future.

Without answering, Sakura Ogawa just continued to look down at the small bouquet for a while, and then said as if talking to herself.

"We, we can't go back together. I can't go shopping and eat ice cream together anymore. ”

"No, it won't!" Trembling all over, Yamamoto He shook his head, but a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Maybe it's just to comfort yourself, thinking that there was Fumiyo Fujiyoshi, Kazuhiko Yamamoto and other classmates in the previous Kunishin Keishi, how could they think that the so-called rules of the game that Kitano said were fake?

"I only know one thing." Looking at her boyfriend with a look of fear on her face, Ogawa Sakura raised her head, looked at the sky and said lightly.

As if to stop Kazuhiko Yamamoto from speaking, Ogawa Sakura continued in a somewhat tough tone, "It's useless to resist. I'm well aware. I heard that my father had always been very unimpressed with the government's actions. I didn't expect ...... one day."

Kazuhiko Yamamoto felt a tremor from Ogawa Sakura's body through the hand he was holding.

"The police officer came to my house and killed my father. There was not even an arrest warrant, and without saying a word, he just shot. I still remember it happening in that tiny kitchen at home. As a young child, I leaned back at the dining table while my mother hugged me tightly. After that day, I still had to eat at the same table, and I have been growing up until now. ”

Sakura Ogawa turned her face to Kazuhiko Yamamoto.

"It's useless to resist." He shook his head slightly, and his trembling voice was a despair of reality.

After more than two years of dating, I heard about it for the first time.

Even after the first physical union of the two at Ogawa Sakura's house a month ago, Ogawa Sakura still didn't mention it.

Kazuhiko Yamamoto knew that there were many other things that he should have said, but he still said what he thought was a stale dialogue.

"You must be upset, right?"

"No, I'm happy because I'm about to be freed, with Kazuhiko."

"What?" Kazuhiko Yamamoto asked strangely.

"I would never participate in this kind of game." Sakura Ogawa threw her bag off a cliff.

As if thinking of something, Kazuhiko Yamamoto watched his schoolbag disappear into the black sea below, and his face turned pale.

"Isn't there anyone to help us?" Unable to bear the fear of death, Kazuhiko Yamamoto squatted on the ground and cried spinelessly.

Tears slowly slipped down the gap between his fingers and dripped onto the ground, splashing a trace of dust.

"No one can come and help us." Sakura Ogawa knelt down on one leg and said softly to her boyfriend.

But inadvertently, tears also slipped down his cheeks.

The two men wept silently.

However, in the midst of sadness, neither of them noticed that a black figure with a silver hockey mask looked at the two quietly, and there was a weird smile under the hockey mask. "Actually, I can help you get free!"

Kazuhiko Yamamoto touched the neck ring on his neck that was shining under the searchlight that was flashing back and forth, and said with a wry smile: "Do we still have a future and forever?" ”
