"Please, save her!"

In a daze, Hoshino Kuri heard a familiar voice, and the stupid guy seemed to be begging someone else.

"Hoshino-san, please stand up." Another voice said, "Lady Hoshino has ...... Be prepared. ”

"Please, Ueki, you must have a way, right?" Hoshino grabbed a doctor by the shoulder and said, "Ueki, you're a genius, you're the youngest expert, you must have a way to save her, right?" ”

"Hoshino, in Kuriko's case, forcibly performing the operation will only increase her pain." The doctor, named "Ueki", closed his eyes in some pain.

"Inukai ......" At this time, the woman on the hospital bed made a weak voice.

"I'm here, I'm here!" Inukai immediately walked to the side of the hospital bed and shook the woman's hand.

"Now, I must be ugly like this." Chestnut on the bed asked with a smile.

Her hair had fallen out, which was a sequelae of chemotherapy. The whole person looks very haggard, but just by her facial features, you can tell that she used to be a great beauty.

"No, it's still beautiful, it's as beautiful as ever." Inukai said without hesitation.

"Dr. Ueki." Without going to see her husband again, the woman stared at the doctor in front of her and said, "In the last few days, I want to go home and have a look, is it okay?" ”

"It's okay to go home." Ueki sighed, now that the patients already knew, he didn't have any scruples, "Actually, there is no difference between staying at home and here." ”

"Then let's go through the discharge procedures."

"Chestnuts!"

"Inukai, you know what?" The woman's hand pressed the man's shoulder, "I'm afraid of pain, so, don't continue, okay?" ”

Inukai was stunned, he thought of the painful expression on his wife's face every time he was treated, and finally chose to compromise.

In the afternoon, the door of Hoshinoya

"Chihiro has already gone to summer camp, and I asked Takeuchi to take care of her." Inukai pushed the wheelchair, as if to see what his wife was worried about, and put one hand on her shoulder and said, "Chihiro's child, it's very slow, she won't find out." ”

"It's okay, I'm like this, maybe I'll scare her." The woman's hand rested weakly on the man's hand, "At the funeral, remember to hire a good makeup artist, I'm afraid of scaring Chihiro." ”

"Okay." Inukai Hoshino was silent for a while, but finally agreed.

He originally wanted his wife not to say such unlucky things, but neither he nor her could deceive himself.

Now, Hoshino Chestnut's life is like a candle in the wind, and it may come to an end at any time.

After entering the room, Hoshino Kuri looked at the familiar room, "I haven't been back for a few months. ”

"Four months and twenty-seven days." Inukai's hand is slightly strained.

"Take me to the piano room to see if my skills have deteriorated." A rare flush appeared on Chestnut's face.

"Why don't you forget it......" Inukai said, looking at his wife, "...... state you are now."

"I've made an appointment, I go to Nara to see the cherry blossoms and deer in the spring, and I want to go to the festival to see the fireworks in the summer. Autumn...... I want to see the red maples of Arashiyama, and ...... in winter In winter, I also go to Hokkaido to see the snow in winter. And once a month the ensemble......" Chestnut suddenly coughed violently as she spoke, "what if...... My technical ...... What should I do if I regress and get out of my head when I play in the ensemble! ”

"Chestnut ......"

"Hmm." The woman looked at her husband in front of her, smiled and said, "You say." ”

The man behind her didn't speak, but the tears on her shoulders told her that her husband was crying.

The furnishings in the piano room are exactly the same as when I first left. Apparently, no one had set foot in this room for a long time since she had become seriously ill.

Her hands laboriously pushed the wheelchair wheel, and she picked up the violin, despite Inukai's objections.

It's just that now she has a hard time even picking up the violin. I barely set up the violin, but as soon as I reached the third note, there was a distraction.

"Don't pull it." Inukai's hand grabbed the bow, "The doctor asked you to come back to let you have a good rest, not to let you toss yourself." ”

"Don't." Chestnut frowned and refused, "I can do it, I ...... just now"

"Obedient." Inukai's voice was gentle, but there was a hint of non-refusal in his words.

"Then you can play the piano for me." Looking at Inukai's stern gaze, Kuriko finally gave in.

The melodious sound of the piano sounded in the piano room, but the cheerful music revealed a trace of sadness.

Opposite Hoshino's house, on the balcony of the second-story western-style building, a little boy was lying on Yota, "Mom, are Uncle Hoshino and Aunt Hoshino back?" ”

"There is only the sound of the piano, no violin, and she should not have returned."

The woman sighed, that stupid woman's illness shouldn't come back. It's just that she doesn't know why, she feels empty in her heart, obviously before, she was the one who hated her the most......

"Mom, you're crying."

"Nope." Shiba wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go into the house." ”·

The sound of the piano continued until midnight, intermittently.

Looking at the chestnuts who had already fallen asleep, Inukai breathed a sigh of relief, and carried his wife to bed a little awkwardly, and he went directly to prepare food, "It's really a bit too willful, I always have to eat something." ”

At night, I don't know when it rained, it seemed to be a tragedy, and the curtain was opened.

In a daze, Chestnut heard the cry, and she saw Yelan lying on the side of her bed crying.

She wanted to touch her little sister's head and tell her, "It's okay," but found that she couldn't seem to do anything.

Then she realized that she was lying in bed at the moment. And beside the bed, the elderly couple, who seemed to be their own parents—her memory began to blur a little.

Behind them, there was a silent dog with Chihiro.

It's just that this guy is now crying and mourning, like a lost soul, sitting in a chair.

At that moment, she seemed to understand everything, and turned her head to look at the bed, where there was a person who looked exactly like herself. It turned out - I was already dead.

Coming behind her husband, she wanted to lift the stinking bastard from her chair like she had done all day.

But her hand went straight through her husband's back, and it seemed that she could no longer hold on to anything.

"Oh, so after you die, you can't even hold on to things?"

She went into the room and tried everything, only to find that she couldn't grasp anything, not even the temperature, and she couldn't let herself be seen by others.

Soon, two doctors in white coats arrived at their home.

"Let's confirm the death information." Dr. Ueki said tiredly.

"Name, Hoshino Kuri."

"Former name: Kujo Chestnut."

"29 years old."

"Birthplace, Sumida-ku, Tokyo."

"The cause of death, bone cancer."

"What did you say?" At this time, the nine Yelan on the side of the bed suddenly burst out, "You repeat, what did my sister die for?" ”

The doctor seemed frightened, a little frightened.

"Yelan!" At this moment, a majestic voice rang out, "Apologize! ”

"I'm so sorry, I lost my temper." Looking at her mother's stern gaze, Kujou Yelan finally bowed her head and apologized.

After watching this scene, Chestnut smiled, the little sister was still the same as before, so afraid of her mother.

It's just that I hide the bone cancer, I'm afraid that I will be hated by her for the rest of my life, and I hope she doesn't worry about Inukai and Dr. Ueki.
