Chapter 4: The Invisible Angel Only Fools Can See

"On the side of the road?"

"Where you got into a car accident."

Is it really related to a car accident?

Narumi Yu stacked four books in volumes 2 to 5 of "The Autumn Rain of the Nai River", "Can you take me to see it?" ”

The girl didn't respond, but stood up and walked out of the library door.

He was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly put the book back in the light novel area and went out to keep up.

Miyuki Nishimura was still looking down at her phone and didn't pay attention.

There are not many pedestrians on the streets, each of them rushing with purpose, and no one seems to want to stay too long under the gloomy sky.

"Far away?"

"Not far, twenty or thirty minutes." The girl said without looking back, and her steps were a little faster.

But fortunately, Narumi has a height advantage and can easily keep up.

Soon he noticed a problem.

The girl's sense of presence seems to be very low, and passers-by, both men and women, sweep their eyes past her, even if they look at them.

In contrast, there are a lot of eyes looking at him, especially when the two are talking.

It even made him start to think about whether there was something about himself that obviously didn't fit the neon lifestyle.

"Narumi Yu, my name. Can you tell me your name? It's easier to talk. ”

Before the girl walking in front of him could respond, passers-by looked at him with strange eyes.

"Imadegawa Chisaka."

"How did Imadegawa-san know I was in the library?"

"It just so happened." The girl's tone was not cold.

Narumi Yu also wanted to ask her why she jumped out of the window in the hospital, but some couldn't stand the gaze of passers-by and didn't speak.

The two stopped talking, and like the other pedestrians, they hurried in silence and lifelessness.

"Here we are."

The T-junction on the north side of Arakawa Park.

As he walked through the park, Yu Narumi saw that the ward office was next to the park.

In other words, the accident happened right behind the ward office building.

There are no signs of damage to the public facilities and buildings around the intersection, and two clear brake lines can still be seen on the ground. From the center of the intersection, a distance of more than 10 meters is extended.

Narumi raised her phone and took a picture of the intersection.

"The driver didn't compensate you?" Imadegawa Chisaka was puzzled.

"The first time I saw the intersection of Imadegawa-san, I took a picture to commemorate it."

"......" the girl looked at him with the eyes of the unsorted and stuffed garbage bags on the side of the street, "It's still within my tolerance to confess when we meet, but this sentence just now is really a little disgusting, Narumi-san." ”

"I'm sorry." Yu Narumi shows enough sincerity.

Because he has no memories related to the car accident, even when he arrives at the scene, he doesn't have much real feeling in his heart.

Naturally, the expectation that the scene would be used to stimulate memory recovery was also disappointed.

I don't feel it at all.

Although he didn't hold out much hope, he tried to ask: "Is there any contact information for the driver?" ”

I didn't think about it when I was in the hospital, and I didn't bother to go back when I thought about it, so I had to give up in the end.

"Nope."

Imadegawa Chisaka answered cleanly, turned around and left.

Narumi hesitated for a moment and chose to be a tailgating idiot.

He always feels that there is a difference between girls and ordinary people, and maybe he can gain something by keeping up.

Before he reached the next intersection, he was discovered by Imadegawa Chisaka.

"Perverted?" The girl frowned and stretched out a hand to tighten her neckline.

"No, it's stupid." Narumi was too lazy to make excuses like coincidental travel, so he admitted it calmly and looked at her.

"......" Imadegawa Chisaka couldn't stand the staring, and sighed, "Forget it, you can't do anything." ”

At the same speed as when he came, Narumi Yu's first tailgating was so easy that he didn't even need to hide himself.

The girl finally stopped in front of the building one house at a time.

"Your home?" Narumi asked.

"It's not."

"Oh."

"Narumi-san, even though I used my imagination to the fullest, I overestimated your incorruptibility."

"Thank you."

"......" Imadegawa Chisaka walked up to a black Toyota parked under a carport and introduced him, "This is the car that hit you at the time." ”

At the intersection of the car accident, he clearly said that he did not have the driver's contact information, but he brought him to the driver's house?

Bear two faces under one hood?

Tsundere?

Just as he was thinking wildly, Imadegawa Chisaka's warning voice came, "Please recognize the reality, Narumi-san." Or I'll help you recognize reality. ”

Narumi Yu immediately put away his thoughts, and he didn't doubt that the other party had that ability just because he jumped from the second floor of the hospital five or six meters high without changing his face and was unharmed.

He walked up to the car and reached out and touched the front cover.

"Let's recognize the reality." Imadegawa Chisaka watched his movements and repeated.

Narumi Yu knew that this was the time to refer to his idea of trying to recall his memories before the crash through the car.

There was a hint of schadenfreude in his tone this time.

"Mind reading?" Narumi retracted the hand that had been placed on the car and gave it up for the time being. Curious why the other party knew what was going on in his mind.

"It's not."

"What's that?"

"From your tone and expression...... Forget it, it's a mind-reading. Imadegawa Chisaka didn't bother to explain, so he asked him rhetorically, "So, are you still going to knock on the door and ask the driver himself?" You may not be very welcome right now. ”

"Always try."

Narumi said as she rang the doorbell of the driver's house.

"Wait a minute......"

Click-

After a while, a middle-aged man with a slightly decadent expression opened the door.

"I've been waiting for a long time, what's the matter with me......" The man recognized Narumi Yu, his eyes gradually widened, and his face was full of incredulity, "Naru, Narumi-kun?!" It's been restored?! ”

"Well, it's recovering well."

"It seems that the legend is true...... I did meet ...... It's okay...... Thanks to the ward office...... "The middle-aged man's mental state was a little wrong, and he was muttering in fragments, not knowing whether he was talking to him or talking to himself.

"Nakashu-san?"

"Huh? Yes! I'm sorry...... I lost my mind for a while, congratulations to Narumi Yu on recovering...... At that time, it was also because I was driving incorrectly, so I'm so sorry......" The middle-aged man woke up and hurriedly bowed to Narumi.

This state wants to know the specific situation of the car accident, which is a bit unrealistic.

In hindsight, it seems that a car accident affected the driver more than he......

"It's okay...... At least I'm back now. ”

"Ah...... Well. has been restored...... It's all right......"

Imadegawa Chisaka, who was watching quietly, sighed, walked over to Narumi Yu, and raised his hand at the middle-aged man.

Under Narumi's gaze, a white-gray mist slowly gathered in the girl's palm.

"Huh?! How so? The driver, who saw the fog, was so frightened that he took a step back into the hallway and tried to close the door.

But at that moment, the fog drifted in front of him and melted into his body.

"Ah......h

"Huh?"

The driver's panicked screams stopped abruptly and scratched his head,

"That...... You are...... Is there anything you want me to do? ”

Fortunately, I saw the system in the morning, and the sudden surreal event, although it surprised Narumi a little, was not too obvious on his face.

Contacting the strange reaction of the pedestrians on the road, he suddenly thought of something, and stretched out his hand to Imadegawa Chisaka next to him, "It's not me, it's her looking for you." ”

The driver looked suspiciously in the direction he was pointing, and his gaze didn't stop at all on Imadegawa Chisaka, "Ah......?" Isn't Narumi-san alone here? ”
