Outside, it was dark, and the evening breeze was steep.

Naoki Natsume stood in the doorway, tightening the collar of his coat and looking out at the coastline to the north.

The sunset hung on the horizon, hazy, and soon the sky would close its eyes.

Walking to the next room, the door was open.

Thinking that since the school doctor Nanami bought this house, and the key was also sent to Asai by her, she must have a backup.

Pushing open the door and entering, Nanamiya stood quietly in the courtyard.

Hearing the noise, she turned her head: "Does she usually come over to clean up?" ”

Naoki Natsume nodded: "Basically, I come over every day after dinner to stay for a while." I go to Sapporo for an internship during the day, so I guess she will also find time to clean up. ”

Nanamiya was silent for a moment when she heard this, and looked at the corner of the courtyard.

She was probably a little melancholy, and wanted to say something but couldn't open her mouth in the end, and only paused to continue when the atmosphere really needed some progress.

"This was supposed to be a vine." She said, pointing to a dirt side in the corner of the yard.

It's empty and there's nothing there, but it's a little different from other concrete floors – like a vegetable garden that has been dug into the concrete-paved ground.

Naoki Natsume replied, "Mao told me that there were not only vines here, but also a lot of vegetables. There are varieties of peppers and cabbage...... It was her mother who planted it. ”

"Does she often tell you about the past?"

"Hardly speaking," Naoki Natsume said, "except for the after-dinner stroll here." ”

Nanamiya nodded lightly: "It's expected, and it's all about her mother, right?" She didn't have a good relationship with her dad. ”

"Sure enough, you actually still know Mao, can you tell me about Mao's childhood? Especially the difference between her and the present. ”

To tell the truth, I've been chasing more with reading books recently, switching sources, and reading aloud with more timbre,.. Both Android and Apple are available. 】

"If you want me to say that there is no difference between that guy when he was a child and now," Nanamiya smiled, "It's just the same child's temper, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered with the question of what the name is...... It's crazy, Mao Asai Nanami or something, and now I still have a headache. ”

Naoki Natsume nodded in agreement, to be honest, he also had a big head when he first heard about it from Mao last night, but when he went to the shrine today, he learned something.

It's crazy, she actually saved herself...... What did you do before you lost your memory?

"Come with me to the back room." Nanamiya laughed at herself, "She can't have torn that painting off, right?" Anyway, that's my masterpiece, and with my current reputation, Nanami's oil paintings are very valuable. ”

Naoki Natsume felt a pang in his heart when he heard this: "What do you mean?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, little one." Nanami Ye pushed the door in and saw the painting hanging in the living room: "Referring to the oil painting, this should be the last oil painting I painted in my life, to pay tribute to the teacher who has died." ”

After saying this, she was suddenly stunned: "To put it this way, when I painted this painting, it was also because my heart was like ashes and I was redeemed, and I once felt that I had to say goodbye to my former self, so I decided to paint this painting and be reborn...... Could that child be the same thing? Do you think that if you change your name, you will be a different person, and your former self will be considered dead? ”

"Well, I think the past self she said is dead, it should be literal." Naoki Natsume thought for a moment and said after careful use.

"Heh, I really don't understand what kind of temper she's up."

Nanamiya shook his head slightly, just Naoki Natsume didn't understand.

The room was cleaned up, except that there was no furniture anymore, everything seemed to be alive.

A house that is inhabited by people actually has a special atmosphere, as long as you enter the door, you can feel it.

Even if the furniture is decorated, if you don't live in it for a long time, you can feel that there is no life in the room as soon as you enter the door.

For example, after buying the house, she felt that way when she came to see it.

But when I came back today, the room was cleaned up so comfortably, as if the original family of three still lived here, and now they just went out for a walk and came back in a while.

"Little one, do you want me to transfer this house to Mao Xu?" Nanamiya asked suddenly.

Naoki Natsume was stunned: "Why do you ask that?" The transfer of ownership should be your family affair, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Nanamiya glanced at him and said, "Now she lives in your house because she doesn't have a place to go, right?" Maybe after the transfer, she will move back in. ”

After a pause, she continued, "Actually, you two sleep in the same bedroom, right? ”

"This ......"

Naoki Natsume didn't know how to answer, he didn't want to lie, but it was still a little embarrassing to be asked this kind of thing.

Nanamiya didn't force the question, because she already knew the answer.

When she was talking to Mao in the bedroom just now, she noticed that there were clothes and daily necessities for both of them in the room...... Naoki Natsume's computer and pants, Mao Xu's pajamas and hairpins.

These are all things that are only available in the bedroom, which proves that the two of them have been sleeping together for a long time.

"After the house is transferred, you and her may still separate." She asked, "Is it okay?" ”

Naoki Natsume didn't think about it, but replied very sincerely, "I still don't think it's something I should decide. Even if my relationship with her has become better now, it is her own business where to go, even if she will move back to live alone, even if there is less contact in the future, as long as she is willing, I will support it. ”

Nanamiya raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and looked at his expression seriously.

After a while, he asked, "This is your attitude, I already know it...... What about what you really think in your heart? ”

Naoki Natsume didn't hesitate: "If that's really the case, I'm going to die of sadness." ”

"What I do is different from how I think," he said, "I'm just an ordinary person and not a sage, and of course I'm selfish in my heart, and I really want to keep Mao by my side...... It's okay to even get married like this, she doesn't need to work hard, I always have some savings at home, just like this, two people live together, have money and a house, I will also treat this relationship well, and it will definitely make her happy. ”

"But I can only think about these things in my heart, and it is a shackle to say it. She has a sense of guilt towards me that I can't understand, so she's done a lot of things for me, but ......"

Natsume pursed his lips, and for some reason, he finally said what he had buried in his heart for a long time in front of Nanamiya.

Maybe it's because she can't reveal her heart in front of Mao, because she is really distressing; Or they said this in front of their senior sisters and in front of Amamiya Chizuru, and they didn't understand.

At this moment, Nanamiya has become the object of his confiding.

She paid silently out of guilt, and felt that she deserved it. But I had a memory problem and didn't know why she did it. In my eyes, she just suddenly appeared for no reason, and then treated me well for no reason, and felt that it was not enough, and she should pay more...... It makes me feel happy and guilty at the same time! In the world, apart from parents and relatives, who would be so good to a person for no reason? ”

"I don't know what I did to make Mao so moved...... Well, now I have a little clue, but even so, I don't think I should let her do that. ”

Naoki Natsume looked at Nanamiya firmly: "It doesn't matter to me what repays the favor or atonement, because I have amnesia, I forgot." Now the fact is that Zhenxu is kind to me, and she pays so much, which is completely unequal to my dedication...... Which man is not impressed by such a girl? So in my heart, it's hard to end up except getting married right now. ”

"Really?" Nanami Ye smiled slightly, and the hand in his pocket quietly clicked the hang up button: "What do you think, I already know very well." I believe there will always be a chance to convey it to Mako. ”
