Xia Fan seemed to be very surprised by Ziyuan's words, "Traverser? Shion nodded very seriously. Teacher, I know it sounds like a joke, but it's not. Then, she took out her phone from Chihiro's bag hanging from the back of her chair behind her, trying to find those text messages and show them to Xia Fan......

"Huh? Odd? Yesterday was fine! —"But she immediately found out that Chihiro's phone couldn't be turned on. "What's going on? Is it a glitch? Suddenly, anxious and embarrassed, she didn't know what to do, and her eyes circled back and forth between Xia Fan and the broken mobile phone several times. Looks very flustered......

"Teacher, it's true! Chihiro told us what he told us personally! She reluctantly put aside the mobile phone that could no longer be turned on, lowered her gaze slightly, and whispered again. Could it be that Chihiro fell into the water today and broke her phone? At this time, Izumi interjected from the side.

"Possibly!"

Her words instantly relieved Shion. "Maybe it was broken when it fell into the water!" Shion excitedly grabbed Izumi's hand and said as she nodded. Then, his gaze turned back to Xia Fan's face. "Teacher, please trust us!"

"But now you don't have any evidence to convince me." Xia Fan reminded the two of them in a somewhat cold tone. "Relying on that alone, I really can't believe what you just said—" Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Shion show a very disappointed expression. "But ......!"

And so is Izumi. Unlike Ziyuan, she probably expected Xia Fan to say this, right? So the expression didn't change much. At this time, the light overhead flickered a few times. No one spoke, and the room fell silent.

"In other words, just fix this phone and let you see the evidence, right?"

Suddenly, Zi Yuan raised her head and looked at Xia Fan's expression very seriously. Judging from what she said just now, it seems that Shion doesn't want to give up yet. "yes." Xia Fan nodded. His expression became more serious. "I see."

"I'll fix it."

He Quan looked at Xia Fan on the side, and then at Ziyuan, and smiled a little helplessly. She couldn't help but sigh and turned her face to Ziyuan's side—"You said you want to fix it, but how do you fix it?" Could it be that you have studied Aster? ”

Unexpectedly, Ziyuan, who was poked in the sore spot by this question, immediately began to wander away, "No? She said with her head down and a red face. So what are you going to do? Izumi was so surprised that his voice changed, and he couldn't help but ask in a disgusted tone.

"I think there should be a place in this town where you can fix your phone!"

At this time, Shion, who felt unwilling, raised her head and emphasized this point while waving her hand in protest. "Indeed—" At this time, Xia Fan couldn't hold back any longer, and told her seriously while holding back a smile very hard. "Look!"

Suddenly, Shion straightened her back to Izumi and said. "The teacher said yes!" The triumphant look seemed to show off to her. "So, when are you going to go?"

"Tomorrow!"

As a result, early the next morning, Izumi was called by Aster. — The sound of her knocking on the door was so loud that it was even more annoying than the occasional cicada chirping outside the window. "Izumi! Izumi!! ”

Izumi sighed, sat up from the bed with his hands propped up, put on a sandal, walked to the entrance, and then yawned as he opened the door to Shion. "Don't knock, it's noisy to kill you......" As soon as the words fell, I saw Ziyuan's face appear in the field of vision.

Today she seems to be in a good mood and her mood is high. "Prepare ready, it's time for us to go!" Then, he pulled Izumi out of the door. "Got it, got it! Let go ......" Izumi waved her hand away with some reluctance, and only then did she see me standing next to Shion.

He also looked like he hadn't woken up, his hair was messy, and his upper and lower eyelids were almost stuck together several times...... At this time, she suddenly realized one thing - it seemed that she had only approved a shirt and came out!

"I'll change my clothes!?"

In an instant, Izumi, who was so shy that smoke was almost emitting from his head, fled back to the house with his head down, quickly closed the door, and only came out of it again after a few minutes. At this time, she was wearing a navy blue jacket and a light blue dress with a snowflake pattern on the edges.

"Let's go." Shion gently pushed me away, took Izumi's hand as if he was still angry, and said.

So, we came to Center Street. It used to seem to be very lively, and there were many people who came here on weekdays. "Why is it so deserted now?" You can still see people and various shops on the street. But it always feels like everyone is doing their own thing—

This strange dullness made Hequan feel a little disagreeable, so she felt strange and turned her head to ask Xia Fan, who was walking beside her. "I think it may be due to the flooding of previous years, right?"

She looked around, and the people passing by had expressions that seemed to be preoccupied, and she also felt a little sad. So despite some hesitation, I patiently explained the reason. "I remember about three years ago, there was a big flood in the town. Perhaps, it's because of its influence, right? ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh. Her expression was also a little gloomy...... "The flood at that time submerged most of the town......" At this point, she raised her head and looked at the cumulonimbus clouds that slowly drifted over from the other side of the sky and finally stopped overhead.

"That's ......"

"Hmm."

At this time, the voice of Shion, who was originally talking to Lola, also became smaller. We all fell silent and walked forward together. Not long after, I found the shop that Xia Fan said yesterday next to a fruit stand. This is a recycling shop......

The shelves behind the boss are stocked with all sorts of things salvaged from a nearby junkyard — old batteries, parts, kids who don't want them, or ragdolls that they're tired of playing...... In short, various.

"Excuse me, can you fix this?"

I fumbled out my phone from my trouser pocket, walked up to my boss, and asked across the counter. She was looking down at the calculator in front of her. "Mobile phone? It looks pretty new, and you're going to sell it? ”

"No, I was asking if it could be fixed."

"How is it broken?" The boss looked at the phone in my hand and was silent for a while before raising his head and asking. "I fell into the water and couldn't turn it on." Then he said before he asked why. The boss thoughtfully shifted his gaze from my face to the phone I was holding.

Reaching out and holding it up, he held it up to his eyes and looked at it for a moment. "Yes, you can come back tomorrow this time." And then say to me. Then he pressed the calculator in front of him again. "Thank you." After thanking us, we left.

By this time, the sun had already set. In the alley next to it, there is a faint smell of sporadic wine. There were a few young men, walking there. "Could it be a bar?" Xia Fan nodded.

"Yes."

Xia Fan nodded lightly in the direction that Aster was pointing. "Let's go back." Then we went back the way we came. Before you know it, night has fallen, and it is completely dark...... It seems that I can't even see the edge of my feet.

But the successive cicadas are becoming more and more energetic. I couldn't sleep because I was so noisy by them that I was going to go for a walk outside. As a result, when I came outside the house so as not to wake up the others, I found that Lola was also on the pier not far from here.

Maybe she was attracted by the loneliness she exuded at this moment, right? Before I knew it, I had come here. When he came back to his senses, he was already standing behind her. "Can't sleep?"

She asked with her back to me in words written in her notebook.

It was only in a moment of surprise that I slowly turned around. "It's amazing, you can find it—" I said with some admiration as I walked over to her. "In order not to disturb you, I deliberately took off my shoes!"

As I spoke, I shook the shoes in my hand and showed her. Lola smiled, then sat down, then reached out and patted the seat next to her, as if inviting me. That's when I realized she wasn't wearing shoes either.

Instead, it was natural to dip your foot into the water after a few probes on your toes. In an instant, the water was over the instep of the foot, and it did not stop until it was close to the ankle. "It's so comfortable!" At this time, with an expression that seemed to be enjoying herself, she gently put her hand on my shoulder......

Suddenly, looking at her squinted, uncomfortable expression, I also felt itchy. So, too, she learned to put her feet in the water...... "It's just comfortable, but it's still a little embarrassing if you don't talk like this." So I asked her while making a splash.

"This morning, when I fell into the water and sank, I felt like I was being pulled. Do you know who it is? ”

"I don't know—"

At this point, Lola turned her face to where I couldn't see, and replied in a whisper. "That's right! I asked in a daze! Suddenly, I felt a little regretful for my impulsiveness, and at the same time, because of this, it made the otherwise good atmosphere a little stiff......
