Narumi Yu watched Imadegawa Chisaka walk towards the depths of the cemetery, but in the end he didn't go in.

Not because of fear.

It's because, in the final analysis, he is just an outsider, and it was through various coincidences that he met a girl who gradually lost her place in the world.

In a place like a cemetery, he also trespassed into it without permission, which was not suitable after all.

Let's follow the route that Imadegawa-sama said and climb up the mountainside to see Kyoto at night......

The cool breeze gently shook the leaves, and the chirping of various insects could be heard from time to time among the trees on both sides of the muddy path, which sounded far away in the silent night.

It's a long way to go, after all, you want to get to the point where you can see almost all of Kyoto. It is obviously not possible to go too low.

Lin Zi blocked the already slightly dim moonlight, and Narumi turned on the flashlight of his phone, and the oval white circle of light shone on the ground, at least allowing him to see the road under his feet.

"It's almost one o'clock in the morning, and even if you climb up, you can't see anything, right?"

When they came out of Zhutian, the street lights had already been extinguished.

Narumi couldn't help but yawn and complained slightly.

But he still climbed up unhurriedly.

Even if he can't see anything, at least it gives him material to write light novels.

And although there is no bright moonlight tonight, there are many twinkling stars.

The starry sky in the open area is also a scenery worth looking forward to.

He saw the walking lantern that Imadegawa Chisaka said, which was quite old, and the light source relied on fire, and it was naturally not lit if no one lit it.

Next to the lantern is a bamboo forest, the wind blows and the bamboo shadow sways on the bluestone pavement next to the lantern.

He couldn't help but wonder why there were bluestone slabs paving the road further up here, but there was nothing below.

It could be local materials, or it could be that the terrain was gentle and didn't need to be paved, and the question that popped into his mind was like what he had worked so hard to climb up for, and he didn't have to find a definite answer.

……

"Here we are."

Narumi Yu looked at the place that had obviously been taken care of and breathed a sigh of relief.

An area on the edge of the cliff is not too small, paved with stone slabs similar to those on the road when you came, and only some weeds grow between the cracks of the stones. The trees and bamboos were all cleaned up, leaving only a four or five meter high maple tree, at this time the maple leaves are golden red, but unfortunately the whole picture cannot be seen clearly at night.

There are stone benches and tables under the maple tree, and a stone lamp stands at the foot of the maple tree.

Narumi turned off the light shining at the maple tree, walked straight to the front, and lay down on the stone table.

Climbing a mountain was really difficult for him with only four points of physical strength, and when he finally arrived at his destination, he had no strength in his body.

[Physical Use Lv.2 (54/100)]

After climbing such a long way, he only added more than ten points, which is about the same as his daily morning run.

The 4 HP shows no signs of changing.

It seems that the system is not as powerful as he thought.

It's just that his efforts are more likely to be rewarded than ordinary people. If you want to get something for nothing, you can be proficient in everything without doing anything, which is obviously impossible.

Maple leaves, stars, breezes, moons.

Narumi looked at the night sky half-hidden by the maple leaves for a long time, listening to the distant sound of the wind and insects in his ears.

The heart slowly calmed down.

Take a commemorative photo until you have to leave, and the light and sound of your phone will ruthlessly destroy this rare silence.

He closed his eyes quietly, and his voice became clearer.

Compared with the noisy cars and horses in the city, under the silence of the mountains and forests, it is easy to hear where the wind is coming from and where the insects are sounding.

He suddenly felt that he was somewhat similar to the stars in the sky, rootless like duckweed, lonely in the sky.

There are stars all around, but I don't know how far apart they are, so far away that it feels like two worlds.

……

I don't know how long later, suddenly a bright light hit his face.

Awakened by the fluttering consciousness, Narumi Yu couldn't stand the bright light, and opened his eyes with a frown, only to see Imadegawa Chisaka holding his mobile phone, and the white light emitted from the flash was bright and dazzling.

"You...... How did Imadegawa-san open his phone? ”

Narumi covered her eyes with one hand, and propped up the stone table with the other. He remembers that his phone needed to be unlocked to use the flashlight.

"The password is the day you get out of the hospital." The girl turned off the light and returned the phone to him.

Also, for Chisaka Imadegawa, who can read minds, knowing a password doesn't seem like a big deal to make a fuss about.

The phone's screen is still on, and the lock screen screen shows the time.

【2：06】

It seems that he did sleep for a while.

It was just after one o'clock in the morning when I first climbed up.

Imadegawa Chisaka stood in an open position, bowed his head slightly, and looked at Kyoto at two o'clock in the morning.

The breeze blew through the girl's hair and skirt, and among the maple leaves above his head.

The raised corners of her skirt could be seen clearly in Narumi Yu's eyes.

If it weren't for the light of the moon, the light in this world couldn't reach the girl's body.

It was the girl herself that shone faintly but enough for him to see.

As early as in the taxi, he had vaguely guessed.

If the girl is not observed by the light, then there is only one possibility why he can still see the girl.

It was just a faint light like fireflies that made him feel uneasy.

It's like a precursor to the imminent disappearance of important people in games and anime, indicating that Imadegawa Chisaka will turn into a point of light and dissipate in the next second.

Turning over from the stone table, Narumi Yu felt a sore back, and sighed in his heart about the importance of good health.

He walked up to Chisaka Imadegawa and followed her gaze down.

Kyoto at two o'clock in the morning is not lifeless.

The scattered windows of residential areas and apartment buildings are still lit, and from here they are only an inconspicuous point of light.

I don't know if it's a young man who stays up late playing games because his body is still young; Or the planning plan did not pass, and the social animal that rewrote it overnight so as not to lose his job; Or maybe it's just an old man who has insomnia and wants to look at old photos and diaries to reminisce about his youth.

Narumi retracted her mind and didn't think about something that was boring and meaningless.

Regardless of age, occupation and other factors, everyone has the right not to sleep at 2 a.m.

If you really want to compare, he himself is even more absurd - he climbed the mountain at two o'clock in the morning, just to see Kyoto, which is almost dark at night.

Moving points of light move straight from building to building, and it is the people who are still busy at night.

The crowded city is like a machine and a heart, the gears are turning all the time, and the heartbeat is rising and falling.

"Isn't Imadegawa-san sleepy?" Narumi rubbed her eyes and yawned.

He has always had a very regular schedule, although it doesn't matter if he stays up all night, but he feels that sleepiness is inevitable, "Let's rest here until dawn, the stone table can barely lie down for the two of us." ”

At this time, when you go down the mountain, you can find a hotel or a manga Internet café where you can rest, and I'm afraid it's dawn.

“……”

Imadegawa Chisaka turned his head and looked at him with a complicated frown.

A look of [knowing that the other party is a pervert, but still can't accept it calmly when he's mentally prepared].

Two minutes passed.

The girl shook her head as if she couldn't stand it.

"Grab my hand later."

The white wings that had been seen once appeared behind the girl.

“…… Yes? ”

Narumi Yu didn't expect this at all, he really wanted to just lie here and rest for the night.

The girl took two steps forward, turned around, and held out her hands to him.

“…… Is it only a gripper? ”

"If it's not for the fear that you'll fall, I'd rather find a stick or bamboo."

“……”

Forced by the girl's unreasonable strength and a somewhat threatening look, Narumi Yu finally stepped forward.

The first time he took Miss Imadegawa's hand, he was thinking all about what was going to happen next.

Flying down from a height of several hundred meters and putting your life in the hands of the other party, it is inevitable that you will be a little worried.

"That, Imadegawa-san...... Don't let go. ”

"Okay."

The girl chuckled, and in Narumi Yu's eyes, her heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat.

It's broken.

The wings fanned a strong wind, and the girl took him to the sky above Kyoto.
