Chapter 262: Parting, Walking to the Sky
Perhaps, there is indeed some kind of unique fate between him and her...... Probably?
Although the two have not met many times, they have not had many experiences with each other. But it seems that there is some special coincidence every time.
At first, when I met on the rooftop, she thought it was some kind of pervert who broke into the girls' school.
As a result, at night, I unexpectedly met at a convenience store where I worked.
Later, because of the wind club, he came to the convenience store again, and helped her solve the unknown creature by the way.
That night in the dim alleys of Kyoto, standing in front of her, "I'll help you solve the next thing", and then, more than a dozen Jidao were solved in one sentence.
I still remember the shocking scene - and of course, the image of running back to the convenience store together in embarrassment is also impressive.
Obviously, a few minutes ago, he was saying "omnipotent".
Later, it was a matter of summer vacation.
It was a normal part-time job at a convenience store again, and he suddenly appeared, from Tokyo to Kyoto.
If it's off work or it's not her time to work, the two will stagger it. But no, that's how we met.
He confided in her.
Later, it was time for the national competition, and in Nagoya, he was just going out for a casual stroll, but as a result, he was able to meet him who was also going out.
At the end of the national competition, he said this to her:
"I'm probably not going to Kyoto, but if you have any questions, I won't mind if you come to Tokyo to talk to me."
β¦β¦ Speaking of which, that's why she suddenly wanted to come to Tokyo, right?
On the rooftop of a high-rise building in Kyoto this morning, it was clear that it was better to ...... than to continue like this and face this kind of choice, which is not possible no matter which one is chosen Leap down.
Then, just like that, one last look at Kyoto, and as a result, he met his students.
Even from the sky, the two people on the street, especially the student who claimed to be a contractor, were dressed up really prominently.
Looking at her, she remembered the teacher, remembered the words he had said to her, and she came to Tokyo.
With a hot head, I took a two-hour drive from Kyoto to Tokyo, crossing things in Japan.
Outcome...... Not at home.
Feeling like it wasn't necessary to calm down, she took a step towards the tram tracks.
But......
At this moment, Ye Yueli looked at the hand that grabbed her arm in a daze, and then looked forward along the arm.
Familiar faces, soft lines can make people feel inexplicably reassured.
His voice with surprise in his ears quickly calmed down after a brief reaction.
A smile hung on his face, a smile of hello.
"Ah, it's Hazuki-sanβwhy are you here?"
ββ¦β¦β
"This is Tokyo, right? It wasn't like I was entering the train stop and suddenly crossing over to Kyoto, right? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Hmm...... I don't know what the situation is yet, but good afternoon. β
ββ¦β¦β
Before she could answer, behind her, the tram came to a stop and stopped.
The doors were opened.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa took a look.
"The car has arrived, do you want to get in the car? Maybe you can talk about it after you get in the car. β
ββ¦β¦β
Reya Hazuki also glanced back at the train that had stopped behind her, and then turned back.
How do you describe her mood now...... I thought that was it, and then, out of nowhere, it appeared on this tram platform.
Maybe there really is some strange coincidence.
I have mixed feelings......
But.
Reya Hazuki masked the fluctuations in her eyes, avoiding Tetsufumi Hirakawa's gaze and instead staring at his hand that had grabbed her arm.
Then he spoke in the same tone as he always did.
"How long are you going to hold a high school girl's hand?"
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
A moment of silence and ...... At the strange glance of the people who were riding the train around him, Tetsufumi Hirakawa let go of his hand with some trouble.
"Huh...... There's a difference between arms and hands...... And please don't use this misconception, I don't want to be noticed by the police because of this kind of thing. β
ββ¦β¦β
Reya Hazuki ignored him, turned around, and walked towards the open car door.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa sighed and walked over as well.
"How did you come to Tokyo?"
ββ¦β¦β
Didn't wait for an answer.
"Well, to change the question - where are you going now?"
"I don't know." Reya Hazuki, who had found a place on the train, finally answered.
There are a lot of people on trains in Tokyo. Tetsufumi Hirakawa was squeezed in front of Reya Hazuki, quite close.
He tried his best to keep his distance and looked down at her.
"Don't know?"
"H-what about you?"
"I, I'm going to the studio now."
"Studio?"
"Well, comic studio. Let me tell you, I resigned before. β
"Have you changed your career to become a cartoonist?"
"If I want to draw, I'll only draw stickmen...... "Tetsufumi Hirakawa laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "It's the main writer, and it's related to literature, so I'm going to try it." β
"That's it."
"Well, what about you? How's it going? β
"It's okay." Reya Hazuki said casually.
"Hmm."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Silence fell.
Reya Hazuki stood quietly, and so did Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who glanced at Reya Hazuki a few times, and looked away out of politeness, not staring all the time.
Waiting until the train stopped and walked, and it was almost time to reach the studio, Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at the station name.
"It's almost time to get to the studio." He said.
"Hmm." Reya Hazuki nodded.
"Have you figured out where to go?"
"It's my first time in Tokyo."
"That's right...... Shall I walk with you? β
"Where's the studio?"
"It's not a big deal, it's too late to go tomorrow."
ββ¦β¦ Thank you. β
The thanks were whispered.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't care and smiled: "It's nothing. β
Although I don't know why Reya Hazuki suddenly appeared in Tokyo, no matter what, it should be the thank you she accompanied him before.
"Where are you going?" Reya Hazuki asked.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa thought for a moment and replied, "I was going to go to the studio and have dinner, so now, let's go to dinner first, right?" You haven't eaten it yet, have you? β
"Not yet."
"Let's go, then."
The tram arrived.
β¦β¦
Dinner was ramen, and the money was from Tetsufumi Hirakawa.
"Just take it as a thank you before, you're welcome." - That's what I said.
After dinner, I walked out of the shop, and it was almost six o'clock in the evening.
This bustling shopping street is beginning to show another side of Tokyo.
After the sky darkens, neon lights and billboards that create an atmosphere are lit up and seep into the night, shining brighter than day.
"Now, where are you going?"
"Any options?" Reya Hazuki stood at the crossroads, her eyes and face, all kinds of lights intertwined, and around her were figures coming and going.
Tokyo is a strange city to her.
"This ......," Tetsufumi Hirakawa thought.
However, no results were thought of.
"It's true that I've lived in Tokyo for a long time, but I don't really go out."
"......" Hazuki Reya glanced at him.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa put on a helpless look.
Reya Hazuki stopped looking at him and looked around. Colorful lights, full of prosperity. It is indeed a city that is different from Kyoto.
Suddenly, Reya Hazuki noticed it and pointed to the distance.
"Let's go there."
"Huh?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked suspiciously at Reya Hazuki's hand.
In the background of night, among the arches of high-rise buildings, there is a huge illuminated Ferris wheel.
"Ferris wheel?"
"Hmm."
"Okay, then, let's go."
β¦β¦
You can see the distance of the Ferris wheel, but if you actually have to walk there, you will have to waste a lot of time.
So I took the tram again.
I got off the tram, walked a few more steps, bought a double ticket, lined up, and got on the Ferris wheel.
"Why do you want to come to the Ferris wheel?"
When boarding the Ferris wheel, Tetsufumi Hirakawa asked casually.
And this question, Ye Yue Reya did not answer him.
She sat quietly in the cockpit of the Ferris wheel, slowly rising, quietly looking out the window at the world.
At night in Tokyo, the lights fill the night, the cabin is isolated from the noise, and the city that never sleeps.
Tetsufumi Hirakawa looked at her quiet side face, paused, and sat down in the seat across from her.
He also looked out the window.
This seems to be his first time riding the Ferris wheel, right?
The Ferris wheel gradually rose up, and the silence continued to spread in the cockpit of only two people. Outside the window, the night of Tokyo opens up more and more scenery as the altitude rises.
High-rise buildings dispel the lights of the night, and the endless wisps of pedestrians ...... Highlight the prosperity of the modern city.
It's getting farther and farther off the ground.
Sumida River jumped into his eyes.
In the world of human civilization composed of lights, a black band divides the lights on both sides of the strait into two.
On both sides is the bustling night, and in the middle, the Sumida River flows slowly in the dark.
It flows quietly through the endless "strip of light", a bridge that connects the two sides of the Sumida River, to Tokyo Bay.
In the dark night, in the distant Tokyo Bay, there are invisible waves rolling in the darkness.
As the cockpit of the Ferris wheel heads towards the highest point, you will have a panoramic view of everything in Tokyo.
In the quiet, noiseless confined space, a soft Kyoto accent sounded at this time.
"My father confessed to my mother on the Ferris wheel."
ββ¦β¦β
Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was still staring out the window, listened to the sound that broke the silence abruptly, was stunned for a moment, and looked to the side.
What he saw was the side face of Reya Hazuki...... Printed with colorful reflections on the windows.
She continued to speak softly, in the enclosed space, the voice floated into her ears, as if she was close to her ear to speak, soft and glutinous, very good.
"That's what my mother says most often."
"I want to Keisuke ......" her tone changed, as if she was mocking...... It's like her mother's tone, right?
As soon as she imitated the first sentence, she couldn't help but laugh, and the "snort" leaked.
"She always uses this sentence to open her mouth, showing off non-stop."
In the dimness, Ye Yue Limi's smile came into view...... Tetsufumi Hirakawa vaguely felt that there seemed to be a crystal light in her eyes.
However, it is clearly laughing.
"I want Keisuke to be the first time, and it was romantic when he confessed to me."
"At night, we boarded the Ferris wheel together, and as the altitude continued to rise, when we looked out the window, the brilliant night view continued to appear in our eyes."
"And when I was immersed in it, the sound of double yellow pipes suddenly sounded in my ears."
"Melodious and beautiful, gently ringing, lingering in the ears."
"At the top of the Ferris wheel, he used the night of the whole city as a backdrop, blowing the melody he composed for me."
"He confessed to me."
"How's it going, romantic, huh?"
ββ¦β¦β
Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced out the window, and then looked at Reya Hazuki beside him.
High in the sky, at night, melodious melody......
"It's very romantic." He nodded.
"Hmm." Ye Yue Reya replied softly, "She always likes to show off to me, the matter between her and her father. β
"Growing up together, childhood sweethearts, elementary school together, junior high school together, high school admitted to a school, three years in the same class. After graduation, they were also admitted to a university together. β
"I'm tired of being together like this, even after getting married, it's not enough, I have to be together."
"I've been married for more than ten years, and they are still in front of me every day...... It's a little unbearable. β
Reya Hazuki remembered something and laughed again.
"Is that so?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa laughed a little, imagining the picture, do you still show affection for the same parents in front of your children...... It's really frustrating.
"Hmm." Reya Hazuki nodded slightly.
She looked out the window.
The Ferris wheel has reached its highest point.
Tokyo is brilliant at night.
At that time, it was in this kind of scenery that her father blew the double yellow pipes and confessed to her mother, right?
It is indeed a beautiful view.
"It's beautiful." Reya Hazuki said as she leaned on the window.
"Hmm." Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was sitting opposite, agreed.
"It makes people want to jump."
"Hmm...... Huh?! After subconsciously agreeing, Tetsufumi Hirakawa was immediately frightened and looked towards Reya Hazuki.
Glancing down again.
"Well, why can't you?"
"Really?"
"I'm going to die."
"Yes."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The highest point of the Ferris wheel is only for a moment.
After crossing the highest point, it began to slowly descend.
The last part of the journey was quiet, and the two watched as the cockpit got closer and closer to the ground until they stopped.
β¦β¦
"Well, thank you for today."
"Nothing."
"It's time for me to go."
ββ¦β¦β
"What, can't you bear me?"
Walking on the road away from the Ferris wheel, at the moment of farewell, Reya Hazuki looked at Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was staring at her side.
"Noβit's just ......"
Tetsufumi Hirakawa shook his head, looking a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like Ye Yue-san, you are not the same today as before."
"Is there one?"
"Yes."
"Somewhere is different."
"Hmm...... Some ......" Tetsufumi Hirakawa picked the right adjectives, "and some were too quiet." β
"Quiet...... Do you mean I didn't scold you much today? Reya Hazuki stared at him curiously.
"This ......," Tetsufumi Hirakawa was still thinking.
Ye Yue Limi suddenly took a step to the side exaggeratedly, as if she was frightened: "Hey, you still have to think about this question, you don't really think about it, do you?" β
ββ¦β¦ No, how to put it, if you look at it purely from the perspective of finding anomalies, this is really an anomaly. β
Ye Yue Reya's eyes began to reveal a familiar look of looking perverted: "So you are really a pervert, right?" If you don't get scolded by me, you still feel that something is wrong. β
Tetsufumi Hirakawa retorted weakly: "Please listen to others...... I just felt that something was wrong, not that I wanted to be scolded. β
However, Reya Hazuki really didn't listen to him.
After thinking about it for a while, he actually used a gesture full of disgust to agree to the request that he didn't know who it was.
"Then as a thank you for accompanying me today, I can barely satisfy your perverted fetishes."
She stopped, faced him, the corners of her mouth raised the arc of disgust, with a nice voice, soft and glutinous Kyoto accent.
"But what do you want to hear? bakaοΌ hentaiοΌ urusaiοΌ β
ββ¦β¦β
The classic triple hit, it's true that it sounds good, but Tetsufumi Hirakawa doesn't have this fetish.
"Alright, it's okay, please stop." He was defeated.
Ye Yue Limi chuckled: "Is it really not necessary?" It's a good time to satisfy your perverts, and then it won't be. β
ββ¦β¦ Not at all. Tetsufumi Hirakawa sighed.
"Okay." Reya Hazuki seemed to have some regrets.
"See you again now, right?"
"Well, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
left, but after a few steps, Hirakawa Tetsufumi suddenly turned around and shouted at Hazuki Reya, "When are you going to go back to Kyoto?" β
Reya Hazuki's answer came: "I don't know." β
"Don't know?"
"Tomorrow." Changed his words.
"Oh."
Tetsufumi Hirakawa nodded, and now he is completely gone.
β¦β¦
After saying goodbye to Tetsufumi Hirakawa, Reya Hazuki climbed a tall building.
As tall as the Ferris wheel, high enough to overlook the night of Tokyo, it's so high that you want to ...... Leap down.
She never thought of going back to Kyoto.
