The news of Shuer's "happy vacation" at the Continental Library Society was not hidden, especially when Corrie "inadvertently" spread the bad news - many people wrote to Shuer.

Among the more serious people is Akta, the guy who went to work in other cities can think of Shuer, which is really touching, and I asked him why he couldn't think about it.

Even Jolina wrote to her, presumably because she was too bored at home, and she didn't have a specific address about the goldfinch, so she changed direction and harassed Shuer......

Others, there are many people they don't know.

Most of them are condolences.

Is it that terrible? Shul smiled bitterly in his heart when he received the letter.

——

It had just snowed the other day, and the silver surface of the transit place was covered with a thick layer of snow, and Shul came out of the post office, stepping on the ground covered with blood, and there was a clattering sound.

There was no color in the sky - a dull lead color, sandwiched between the generally high floors, and one breathed this narrowness and heaviness in one's breath. Xiuer, who was not very afraid of the cold, also raised his hand, and more pretended to pull the neckline of the black coat to make himself feel more comfortable.

What is the weather in the west like now--Shuer's mood was a little erratic, and he inexplicably remembered something else.

Something that seems to be haunting my mind all the time.

"Huh, Shuer-san?" was interrupted at this moment.

He looked behind him and saw a girl in a gray coat.

“...... Nina?" Shul has a good memory.

Eventually, Nina and Shul went to a nearby café and sat down to talk.

"I just saw you all of a sudden...... Feeling like it's going to be a waste of your time?" Nina sat down, a little embarrassed.

"Nothing happened today. Shuer, who happened to be resting today, smiled at her and pointed to the menu, "I look at you cold, and I have something to say." ”

Nina was stunned and very grateful: "Thank you very much!"

She did have something to say to Shul - and Shul seemed to be a non-formalistic person, but in fact, he knew a lot about things.

"It's nothing if it's cold, my hometown is in the north, and it's often colder than it is now. Nina said.

But that was a long time ago.

"What do you want to say?" said Shul to her, and when the coffee was served, he took a sip and put the cup down—the cup tapped lightly on the base, and the sound was crisp.

"I didn't expect to see you here...... Actually, it's still the same thing before......" Nina saw Xiuer's movements, with a hint of casualness in her elegance - it still made her feel a little restrained in comparison, and carefully picked up her milk tea, "I caused you trouble, but then even Professor Herris couldn't find a way to make me remember......"

This incident—something that happened at the athletic tournament, there was no news about it later, and there was nothing Shure could do to follow up.

"I think Teresa-san should think...... It's hard for me...... Ah, of course it's not that she cares about anything, it's that I care about these things...... Oh no. Although she wanted to say these words early in the morning, Nina couldn't organize her words properly.

Shul probably understood what she meant: "You want to apologize to Teresa, but you're afraid of her, so you haven't said anything and come to me?"

Nina nodded: "Because it feels ...... If you could tell me about it, she would forgive me......!

After saying that, Nina remembered that the two were not together at all.

Although it feels ...... And together there is no difference.

If the two have nothing to do with each other, then no one really believes it.

But it's not good to be too direct...... Thinking of this, Nina was entangled again.

In particular, Shuer's expression looked a little trance-

"I'm so sorry!" Nina almost cried, what did she say!

"Huh?" Shul came back to his senses, looking at her expression, a little sorry, "distracted...... I'm sorry. ”

......: "It's hard to believe that you're a wandering person." Nina thought to herself, not speaking, but it was already obvious on her expression.

Of course, Shuer saw it, and smiled blindly: "Aha, in fact, you don't have to worry too much, Teresa won't care about this, if she really has any opinions about you, she will be killed in front of you a long time ago." ”

It sounds so subtle and comforting...... Nina was sad and cried with a sad face: "Are you sure?!"

"Probably ......"

"Shuer-san, is really amazing!" Nina was silent for a while, leaned her neck and drank a large sip of milk tea in one go, almost choking, wiped her mouth, and said suddenly.

What kind of play is this—Shul smiled, didn't speak—didn't know how to answer.

"I'm sure Teresa-san thinks - she's so hard to understand, very powerful and can't guess, I don't think I'm in the same dimension as her at all. Nina's next words basically hit the nail on the head of most people.

Shure couldn't help but be stunned, was he sure what Teresa thought?

"Actually, I don't know. Shure's next words were a little dumbfounded.

It's heart-wrenching to think about it — Shul is sure he's not joking.

He knew that there were many mysteries about the golden finch and that she had an unbelievable character, but he couldn't know anything from her about these things, and some of the assumptions in her behavior were only based on assumptions, and he was a little confident in saying it, but he still didn't understand her after all.

It's really heart-wrenching.

The gentle and polite Shuer was a little upset at this moment.

"Well, I didn't mean to say that! After all, you haven't known each other for a long time, and you've only been in contact for a short time! It's hard for her character to open up to people, right...... At least...... Where did Teresa go, I suddenly wanted to ask......" Nina saw that Shuer's expression changed, and the whole person panicked.

But she really, very, doesn't, can speak.

I haven't known each other for a long time→ so I don't have any status in the minds of others;

It's hard to open up to people→ so you don't know anything about it;

Where did Teresa go→ she was simply left here now, nowhere to be found.

The knife is bloody......

"I'm sorry!" Nina was tired.

"It's okay......" Xiu'er's expression at this time was more ugly than crying.

"At least...... At least...... At least now, you miss her a lot?" Nina's words were not only heart-wrenching but also illogical, and even those who listened carefully did not quite understand what kind of brain circuit she was.

Although Shul didn't quite understand it, he was still in a bit of a trance because of her words themselves.

Missing?

Shure turned his head to the west, for the first time in this time.
