Ye Yue Limi may not know that she is going to "call the police to arrest him" at this moment, and she has no deterrent power at all.

"Call the police to arrest me?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa's hand had no intention of taking it away.

Ye Yue Reya immediately nodded affirmatively: "Well, of course, the perverted idiot who casually manipulates the female high school vividly has to be arrested." ”

"That's right."

"So don't you take it away?"

“……”

“……”

"Hey."

In his silence, he seemed to be really dissatisfied, and raised his voice.

"In the face of a cute girl, can you finally restrain yourself? Stretching out the hand of sin, even if you embark on the path of crime, you will not hesitate to decide to satisfy your perverted desires - you are really hentai, right? ”

“……”

"If you don't take it away at this point, is my face so comfortable?"

“……”

"You're hopeless." The corners of Ye Yue's mouth were still curved, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles.

It's just......

Tetsufumi Hirakawa watched her quietly, his hand rubbing lightly on her tender face.

The girl was obviously laughing, but the tears overflowing from her eyes couldn't be stopped, and the more she wiped it, the more she wiped it, the more it flowed, and it fell to the ground.

"Hazuki." He finally stopped his useless work and spoke softly.

"What." The soft and glutinous voice, but the tone is very unpolite.

"If you're sad, it's okay to cry out loud."

"Crying, who cried, where?" Reya Hazuki pretended to look around.

“……”

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa did not say anything.

"You're not talking about me, are you?" As if she had finally found out, the girl pointed to herself, and then immediately denied with a smile, "I didn't have it." ”

"Nope."

"Now that the doctors have said that with sufficient treatment costs, my father finally has the possibility of being cured, I should be happy, right?"

Asking rhetorically, as if convincing herself, her smile became more pronounced.

"And ah, when my father recovers from his illness, there will be no problems."

"There won't be any problems."

"Now this mother who became like this because of her father's illness will not be gone."

"She'll go back to the way she used to be, the way I remember it."

"She will pester her father, she will play a little temper with her father, and her father will love her very much and never abandon her."

"Maybe the relationship between the two of them will get better and better."

"That's a good thing to look at, isn't it?"

Tears continued to flow, and the smile remained on her face.

Reya Hazuki asked and answered herself.

"It's a good thing."

"So, there's no need for my mother to remember this, just act as if it didn't happen."

"I'll just pretend it didn't happen."

"No problem."

"Don't affect their feelings."

"As I said earlier, I'm going to college right away anyway."

"At that time, it will be my mother who will always be by my father's side."

"As long as that's it...... As long as that's it...... As long as that......"

“……”

As she spoke, Ye Yue Reya's voice became smaller and smaller, until she completely lost her voice.

In the tears that could not be stopped, the smile on her face became more and more difficult to hold, and finally, in an instant, it collapsed.

She threw herself into Tetsufumi Hirakawa's arms at once, burying her face in it.

She couldn't stop crying, and tears welled up.

"That being said, but, but, but, ...... Hiragawa "

"But no, it really doesn't work!"

"I still can't convince myself, I can't convince myself!"

"What should I do?"

"What should I do?"

"I feel so sad when I think about it."

"I'm so sad, Hirakawa, I'm really sad."

"She's my mother."

"Why, why did she do this? Do this kind of thing to her daughter? ”

"Hirakawa, what do you think I should do?"

"Am I going to use hypnosis to forget about it?"

"What the hell am I going to do?"

"What should I do?"

"Whew-"

“……”

The girl's heartbreaking cry sounded in her chest, on the shore of the Uji River, and the sound of the wind continued.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa was silent, letting the girl wet his clothes with tears.

A betrayal from someone closest to you is undoubtedly painful, and a betrayal from a close mother is enough to destroy one's psychological defenses.

So in the face of the situation that her mother wanted to push her into the abyss, Reya Hazuki stood on a tall building and wanted to jump.

The pain in her heart is unimaginable to others, but it is difficult to imagine.

Being able to imagine is because of being able to understand the cause of her pain;

It's hard to imagine because people who haven't been treated like this can't imagine the extent of this suffering.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa couldn't fully imagine it, but he knew and felt sorry for the girl.

He reached out and stroked her back, over and over again.

……

……

……

Eventually, the crying gradually stopped, turned to sobbing, and as time passed, it stopped completely.

Reya Hazuki was still lying on his chest.

"The ......"

Tetsufumi Hirakawa let go of his hand and tried to speak.

"Hazuki?"

“……”

There was no response, and the girl lying on his chest trembled slightly, but did not look up.

"Hazuki-san?"

“……”

"Hello?"

“……”

Still no response.

"You can't fall asleep, can you?"

It wasn't until this sentence was said that there was finally a voice.

"What." In order to hide the crying, he shouted loudly.

"......" Tetsufumi Hirakawa blinked, looking at the girl who wasn't going to get up yet, "It's time to get up, right?" ”

"Shouldn't people like you be happy that a high school girl is giving her a hug?"

"Not at all. On the contrary, it is still troublesome. ”

Reya Hazuki finally bounced away from him and raised her head to stare at him: "What bothered you?" ”

Hirakawa Tetsufumi looked at Ye Yueli's red eyes, and then lowered his head and gestured with his eyes to the water stain on his chest: "What else can you bother, your clothes are wet." ”

"Is this the time to care?" Reya Hazuki's tone was fierce.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa laughed suddenly: "Looking at you like this, you know it's okay." ”

Ye Yue Limi pursed her lips, turned around, and walked forward.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa followed.

"How does it feel?"

"Okay."

"Hmm."

"It's—" Suddenly turned.

"What's it?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa asked.

"I just didn't pay attention to it, and I was taken advantage of by a perverted teacher who likes female students."

"Is this also taking advantage? You pounced on it. ”

"Why not, why don't you push me away? Sure enough, you have a desire for my body, right? ”

“……”

"So, what were you thinking when you held me just now? Wouldn't you even have the child's name in mind? ”

“……”

Reya Hazuki can always think of strange angles,

Tetsufumi Hirakawa smiled lightly, did not answer, and turned to look at Ujigawa beside him.

In winter, the water level of the Uji River drops compared to summer, and the river flows more slowly.

Looking at it like this, but Ye Yue Remi was not satisfied.

"I'm talking to you."

I couldn't get a reply for a long time, so I urged him.

"What were you just thinking?"

"What was I thinking?"

"Well, it must be some kind of perverted idea, so I don't dare to say it."

“……”

The wind from the Uji River swept across the water, carrying its vapor with it.

The winter wind is still a little cold, blowing through the dry cheeks of tears, bringing coolness.

Ye Yue Limi stretched out her hand to wipe her face, tidied up her somewhat messy bangs again, and restored them to neatness, and then, she turned around as she walked in front.

"I can't guess it, will I?"

The corners of her mouth hooked into a smile, and she said it as if provocatively, and after the words fell, finally, the figure in the field of vision who was quietly looking at Ujigawa turned his face to respond to her gaze.

She blinked, and then she saw Tetsufumi Hirakawa's gaze—the moment when the clouds obscured the sun and the sky darkened, she saw his eyes:

Gentle, like the surface of the Ujigawa River, with an infinitely gentle gaze.

"I'm thinking...... Thank you for your hard work, Ye Yue-san, I really worked hard for you. ”

“……”

"It's going to be sad to encounter this kind of thing, right? It should be said that sadness is inevitable, so it's okay to cry if you want to. ”

“……”

"Also, fortunately, I met you in time yesterday, grabbed you, and was able to accompany you to solve this matter, without letting you face it alone...... I'm glad I did. ”

“……”

"That's what I just thought, Hazuki-san."

“……”

“……”

“……”

The unexpectedly straightforward answer made Ye Yue Liya silent and stunned.

The wind carrying the moisture of the Uji River once again swept through the ends of the hair and the ears, and the slight coldness irritated the cheeks and eyes.

When he came back to his senses, Hazuki Reya hurriedly turned back and didn't say a word.

……

The next topic started when Reya Hazuki slowed down.

Walking in front, she gradually fell behind, and before she knew it, she came to Tetsufumi Hirakawa, who was walking behind.

The two returned to walking side by side.

After walking a short distance side by side, she suddenly spoke, breaking the silence between the two of them with only the sound of footsteps.

"Hey."

"Well, what's wrong?" Tetsufumi Hirakawa responded softly to the girl.

Reya Hazuki looked like she had something to say.

"Speaking of which...... There's another question you haven't answered me since last night. ”

"What's the problem?"

"Why would you want to pay for my medical bills...... I handed it in again today. ”

It turned out to be this problem...... Tetsufumi Hirakawa glanced at Reya Hazuki.

"Can't you?"

"Weird, right?" She stared at him and muttered, "So much money, you just paid it for me...... Are you rotten good? ”

"It's not for you, you have to pay it back." Tetsufumi Hirakawa corrected.

"I can't afford it yet."

"Then I have to pay it back."

He replied casually.

But......

"Hey—" called out to him again, apparently not satisfied with his answer.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't play dumb, you know that, right?"

"What do I know?"

Reya Hazuki's eyes were still red, and she looked a little aggrieved.

She frowned.

"Even if you say you want to pay it back, you know that I can't afford to pay back so much money...... At least for a short time, no, even if it's a long time, it will definitely not be repaid, after all, in this case, I paid the medical bills for me, which is no different from playing in the water, right? ”

“……”

"Right?" Reya Hazuki looked at him, "So much money, why?" ”

“……”

"You don't really want to keep me, do you?"

“……”

"Ah...... This ......" Tetsufumi Hirakawa dragged his tail note and turned forward.

"Answer me, is that okay?"

“…… Okay, okay. ”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa replied helplessly, then lowered his head and thought about it seriously, and began to answer.

"If I had to say it...... I probably don't care that much about the money, do I? ”

"Why?" Ye Yue Reya immediately asked.

"Don't worry." Tetsufumi Hirakawa told her to calm down.

Then I thought about it and continued to explain.

"Of course, I don't mean that I don't feel sorry for the money...... Seriously, I must be distressed, what about so much money......"

"I just think it's more important to be a concrete, living person in comparison, right? …… The meaning of this sentence is, I think you will be more important than the money. ”

"It's not important to be heavy, it's a comparison."

“……”

In the silence of Hazuki Reya, Hirakawa Tetsufumi explained in an unhurried voice.

"And, of course, the ...... I consider myself a capable person. ”

"Hmm...... I don't think I think I do, you know, I have that ability. ”

"It's a terrifying ability."

As he spoke, Tetsufumi Hirakawa stopped, and then in the strange gaze of Reya Hazuki, he faced the Ujigawa and made a gesture in his memory.

"What about omnipotence...... Remember? ”

"Obviously, I have such ability, but now, I have met a person."

"She's standing on the rooftop, and because she doesn't have enough money for treatment, her family is facing breakdown, and she's going to jump now."

"If you don't have such ability, forget it, even if it's me...... To be honest, it was hard for me to be generous and almost hesitant to decide to help. ”

"But I have."

"I have such ability, I threaten to be omnipotent, do I still hesitate?"

"Obviously I want to help each other in my heart, but do you still have to struggle?"

"No, I don't think so."

"If that's the case, it's too vulgar, a little family, I don't want this."

"I have the ability, I have the capital, so I can do whatever I want."

"I can do whatever I want, and I don't have to dwell on the little things that don't matter."

"If you don't get it yet, you can't get it yet...... I don't care. ”

"The most important thing is."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa squinted his eyes in the wind and turned back, looking at the speechless Hazuki Reya.

"Hazuki-san, I know you."

"To know you means that in my eyes, you are a concrete, living person."

"It is not a person who lives in the abstract in the invisible illusion, marking the ethereal concept that life is priceless."

"I know you, I can see you, I can reach you."

"I know your sadness, I can understand your pain, when I see you sad, broken, and want to jump because of these bad things, I will feel sorry for you, I will want to hold you, I will want to stand by your side and help you."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa approached and stood in front of her.

Reya Hazuki's gaze followed him blankly, following the soft face in his field of vision.

He spoke softly to her, his soft voice blowing like a drizzle.

"And as I said, I have the ability...... Right? ”

"So there's nothing to worry about, I choose to help you according to my own heart."

"Although I paid such a large sum of money at one time, it was really distressing...... I don't regret it, though. ”

"Also, don't worry about whether you can pay back such an inconsequential triviality, and if you don't pay it back, you have to pay it back...... It's just a joke. ”

"You've worked hard, Hazuki."

"It's really hard."

Hazuki Reya saw Tetsufumi Hirakawa reach out and gently stroke the top of her head...... It was warm.

He smiled warmly at her.

"You're already having a hard time with this kind of thing, don't put pressure on yourself."

"I hold you back, but I don't intend you to live in debt that you can't pay off...... It's also too painful. ”

"In the coming days, please live well...... I know, though you don't seem like much of a problem right now. ”

"But your mother's affairs will always be in your mind, and you will be sad."

"Only in this regard, I can't help you, all I can do is stand by your side and help you solve other problems."

"So, don't worry about the treatment fee, it's okay, I'll help you."

"Don't overthink it, okay?"

"It really doesn't matter."

“……”

Reya Hazuki suddenly wanted to cry.

"Okay, okay, okay, okay."

The figure in front of her gradually became a lake, and gently brushed her fingers over the corners of her eyes.

"Let's live well...... Don't think about jumping off, okay? That's what I want to say to you. ”

Reya Hazuki couldn't hold back any longer, and she slammed headfirst into his chest.

"Shhh...... Seriously, it hurts. His wry smile rang in his ears.

But Ye Yue Reya didn't care anymore, she hugged him hard, hugging this body that reassured her, made her greedy, and made her not want to let go.

The tip of her nose smelled the smell of him, a good smell, and she could still hear his heartbeat, thumping heartbeat...... And her own heartbeat, which was beating violently now.

She remembered the time he held her from behind, when she looked up at the quiet night sky, and when she lay on the warm bed, he sat on the side, flipping through the book.

You can't do it if you don't take the chance...... He's leaving, leaving Kyoto and returning to Tokyo.

The thought of this made her so sad.

She doesn't want this, she doesn't want this.

She wanted this person to hug her tightly, run to her desperately for her, save her, and she also wanted him to be able to accompany him gently, even if it was to stay by his side and watch him flip through the book, and say goodnight to him, this is okay, this is okay.

But no, he's going back to Tokyo soon.

Ye Yue Remi choked up a little, and her voice was crying.

"Hey...... Hirakawa. ”

"I'm here."

"I'll give you one more chance now, one last chance."

"Well, what chance?"

Hazuki Limi sniffed and asked loudly.

"You're going to take care of me, aren't you?"

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa paused with some distress and replied.

"Ah...... This one...... To be honest, I don't have any money because of the cost of treatment. ”

"It's free."

"There's a saying that the free ones are the most expensive."

"Aren't you your favorite high school girl?"

“…… There is no such statement, right? ”

"Do you really not want to? One last chance...... It's really the last chance. ”

“…… I'm sorry. ”

“……”

“……”

Warm body, and a slightly cold wind.

Reya Hazuki's hand clutched Tetsufumi Hirakawa's clothes tightly, her face buried in his chest.

It's obviously the expected answer, and the answer you know when you ask, but ...... Still, it's still so sad, it's so sad, it's really sad.

Her voice trembled, and she couldn't tell the difference.

"What about you...... Then you ......"

She took a deep breath and crowed out loud.

"Then you give me a reason, give me a reason not to like you."

“……”

The voice suddenly became low.

"Okay......"

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa sighed softly.

The soft and glutinous girl in her arms, her voice was light and fluttering, and she couldn't stop the trill.

His hand rested on her equally trembling shoulder.

"Hazuki ......"

"As I said, I'm glad I was able to find you in time, hold you, and stand by your side to help you."

"I'm glad I didn't leave you alone with such a bad thing."

"I'm here to help you, and I hope you can live well."

"What if...... If I happen to be one of the motivations for you to live a good life in the future...... I'm honored. ”

"Thank you too, thank you for liking."

“……”

“……”

"But...... I already have jasmine. ”

“……”

"So, I'm sorry."

“……”

The cold wind seemed to have become colder, and in order to escape, Ye Yueli hugged her tighter, and when she wanted to melt in, her body trembled even more.

Tears welled up.

"I know, I know......" she said tremblingly, like a frightened little animal, "can you keep me...... Can? May I? ”

“……”

Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't speak again, he just touched Reya Hazuki's head and rubbed her long hair.

So, on the shore of the Uji River, which flows quietly, the girl began to sobble uncontrollably.

The wind also blew.
