Chapter 2 Reunion at Wuzhen High School
In a high-end dessert shop on the commercial street of Tokyo's Wuzhen High School
The girl looked at the human beings coming and going outside the window a little blankly, even through the window can feel the smell of iron fire and gunsmoke, this is the place where the martial arts detective high, a group of crazy teachers use abnormal education methods to train a new generation of martial detectives.
To tell the truth, the girl was a little tired of such a place, but she still had to lift her spirits, for carelessness could be a big problem in this dangerous school.
On the bright side, if you don't pay attention to the battle between students, you will be injured, and if you don't pay attention when you try your ability, you will be hurt by your own ability, and even the tide that lurks behind the stable appearance of the school can tear people apart lightly.
But the maiden had to stay here, because one of her vital friends was still in this dangerous place.
The girl, who had been assigned the position of guarding Singapore by the division headquarters, hurried to the school by plane after learning about the disappearance of the boy and the girl's coma to take care of the girl who was still sleeping.
Thankfully, the girl didn't seem to suffer much damage from someone's protection, just falling unconscious from the blast wave and mental turmoil.
"It's been a month...... Hoshikawa-san, there is no news yet......", the white girl pressed her head against the glass, as if she wanted to become calmer.
"Do you mean...... Even he couldn't dodge such a deadly attack...... Scarlet God...... Is this kind of existence really something that humans can resist?", the girl couldn't help but shudder a little as she recalled the name.
But the boy who can easily solve any difficulties is extremely vulnerable in the face of such a powerful force, and even the boy can't resist Cunzài, can he still hope to defeat her?
The girl is lost in thought, and having experienced many trials and frustrations, she has tried to use her wits to understand and speculate on these things. She's not stupid or demented, it's just that her inertia doesn't really want to face some things in reality.
The waiter's voice interrupted the girl's thoughts, a platter of fruit ice cream dotted with fresh pulp was placed in front of her, and the girl took her attention back, looking at the dessert in front of her, but somehow she couldn't whet her appetite.
"Really...... I don't have any appetite at all......", after the girl tasted a few bites, it was now a little difficult to swallow, obviously it was already the food she once wanted the most and loved, why did it have no taste at all now?
The girl still remembers the moment when the teenager invited herself to enjoy dessert boldly, and somehow she suddenly felt a little lonely in her heart.
"Really...... I'm sure I'm overthinking it...... It must be because it wasn't all the distressed wallets that were invited...... Wow, it seems that the cost of living this month has become tight again. The girl looked at her shriveled purse, her eyebrows furrowed, and seemed to mind the matter.
But the girl actually knows her own thoughts, a certain existence that is hidden in the corner, usually covered up by her own silly smile.
When was it? Maybe it was the first time we met? Or maybe it was the rescue that came all the way at that time? The girl couldn't remember clearly, but she vaguely remembered that the boy once shared an umbrella with her on a rainy day.
But...... Those are already in the past, and the girl will snuff out all the signs of qiē, because she knows that this comrade-in-arms of hers may have extraordinary feelings for that girl, which she has never seen before.
"Well...... Let's go see that guy from Riko...... Maybe it might be better to bring her some dessert?", the girl looked at her empty purse, smiled wryly, and bought a dessert that Riko liked again, and headed towards the dormitory where only the girl was left.
But perhaps the girl didn't expect that she did see the face she had missed for a long time, and she also saw the smile of her friend, but she didn't expect that she could only sigh helplessly, burying everything in her heart, leaving only those illusory and warm fragments in her memory.
..................
A girl lying on a table
The not-so-gentle light shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the girl's face, and the golden curls seemed to be a little dimmer than before, and the girl's sleeping face was more melancholy and apologetic, as if she was distressed by some scene in the dream, and seemed to be silently sad.
"Chen!", the girl suddenly woke up from her dream, calling out a nostalgic and secure name, as if she wanted to suppress the sadness in her heart.
"Whew...... It's just a dream...... Really...... Why is it so realistic...... Why isn't it true......", the girl raised her head in a trance and looked at the table and chair in front of her. There was also a tea set on the table, which the girl remembered was something that teenagers would use when they enjoyed black tea.
"Really...... Riko is so stupid...... I can't tell the difference between reality and dreams...... Tatsu is gone. ", the girl murmured in a low voice, as if trying to persuade herself to face such a fact.
The boy may not be gone anymore, right? Countless times, the girl will think about this, because she has not been able to find out the whereabouts of the boy for a long time. The world's top hacker ability, just to find the traces of the teenager, may be a little ridiculous to say, but the persistence in the girl's heart is unimaginable to others.
The boy who was willing to stretch out his hands in the dark quagmire, the boy who was willing to share his pain with the girl, the boy who understood and could give the girl a warm embrace, maybe had turned into nothingness at this time, right? In the scene that she could never forget, the boy disappeared as if it had never appeared.
Sometimes the girl can't tell the difference between fact and illusion, is the mysterious boy a real existence, or is it her own pitiful fantasy? The girl sometimes doesn't want to pursue these things, she just wants to see the boy's smile, even if she knows it's illusory.
"But...... Even in a dream...... I can't see ...... clearly", the girl slumped limply in her chair, her fingers inadvertently touching the silver chain on her wrist.
"Maybe Riko hasn't woken up yet?", the cold touch brought the girl back to reality.
Reality or illusion doesn't have much meaning for the girl at this time, because something that can support her seems to be gone.
The girl seems to be still in a trance between waking and trance, and unconsciously walked to the research room where the teenager used to be, where countless manuscripts and materials are piled up, which seems to be the research that the teenager once did.
"Although a lot of it looks like you can understand...... But I still can't understand it...... Sure enough, have you forgotten it? Even his voice will be unfamiliar, right? Riko is also forgetful......", although the girl said this, but the auditory hallucinations echoing in her ears were the young man's soft words, like a breeze, which could smooth out all the waves.
Although the girl kept persuading herself and hinting to herself, she was still unforgettable. The look on the young man's face when he resolutely pushed himself out, with a little guilt and determination, suddenly ignored the disaster on his side.
"Ah...... It's been a long time since I had breakfast...... Maybe you want to go out and eat something?", the sound of protest came from the girl's stomach, and the girl suddenly remembered that she had not eaten today.
Perhaps motivated by hunger, the girl reluctantly combed herself, standing in front of the windowsill and looking at the world wrapped in silver light.
"It's snowing, it's ......", Riko changed the clothes on her body, although the whole person looked much more energetic, but the sadness and loneliness in the corners of her eyes could not be hidden.
"Riko wants to go out and play happily!", the girl seemed to say this reluctantly, planning to go out alone and fill her stomach.
"Riko?", a somewhat illusory voice seemed to reach the girl's ears, the girl was stunned, and gently touched her forehead, as if she was wondering if she had auditory hallucinations again, and it seemed that this feeling had often appeared recently.
"Riko?!", the girl heard the familiar voice again, but still thought it was her own auditory hallucination, and stopped paying attention to it.
But what the girl didn't expect was that a pair of hands gently hugged her, and the warm and familiar body temperature and breath continued to come.
"Phantom ...... Hallucinations can be so realistic......", the girl froze in place, obviously feeling that she was still in a dream.
"Stupid...... I'm real...... You can't be stupid and hallucinate, are you?", Riko could feel the boy's exhalation blowing on her neck, and a strange feeling of warmth spread from her neck, and the girl couldn't help but tighten her body, but it touched the boy's body.
Maybe it's a chest that's wider than the girl.,But there's an incredible sense of stability.,The girl really understood.,Sure that it's not someone else who hugs her.,It's a teenager who has disappeared for a long time.。
"Tatsu ...... It's true...... Is it you?", the girl didn't dare to turn around, as if she was afraid that this qiē was all illusory, just like what she had seen in her dreams, as long as she observed it carefully, it would appear that qiē was a dream thing.
"Of course it's me, sorry...... You've been waiting for a long time......", Tatsumi gently hugged Riko, maybe a little more apologetic on his face, but more of a joy.
Riko turned around lightly and hugged Tatsumi with all her might, pouring every bit of her thoughts into it, as if she no longer wanted to be separated from the boy.
"I'm really sorry......," the boy whispered in her ear, hugging the girl's slender body.
The haze and pain on the girl's face all disappeared, and only the smile from the heart remained:
"Welcome back, Tatsu!"
The boy and the girl hugged each other, but the girl who was standing under the windowsill, carrying a cake and preparing to go upstairs, witnessed this qiē, silently blessed the two of them in her heart, and left alone.
