At the end of the day, after drinking the soup, Naruse put down the soup bowl, and his evaluation of this unsightly restaurant rose again.

"It tastes so good."

"Uh-huh."

After eating and drinking, he looked at the few girls sitting next to him, and Naruse waited for a while.

Hikaru Takikawa then finished eating, already concerned about the next morning: "I remember that the hotel has breakfast, right?" ”

"Hmm." Naruse nodded, after all, the price was there, and it was unreasonable not to provide breakfast, "Provide a buffet breakfast." ”

"What floor is the restaurant?"

"I didn't pay attention. Let me ask when you go back. ”

"Okay."

After a few people had finished eating and leaving the restaurant, Hikaru Takikawa once again proposed to go around the campus of Tohoku University.

"It's close, anyway, and it's early."

It was originally a predetermined plan, "Okay." ”

The distance was a little closer than expected, and after walking for a while, several people came to the flat area of Northeast University. It is also the seat of the headquarters of Tohoku University and the Faculty of Science, and retains a considerable part of the buildings of the Meiji period.

"It looks old...... Let's go to the place where the exam will be taken tomorrow. ”

"Hmm."

Looking at the sign on the side of the road, Naruse pointed to the road on the left, "Go this way." ”

He led the way in front, and several girls watched as they walked, slowly passing through a large area of Western-style buildings from the Meiji period.

After nightfall, you can still see a lot of wandering figures in the school, and judging from the high school uniforms on some of them, it is obvious that they are also candidates like Takikawa Tsuki.

"Among these people, if you don't know it, there will be classmates after Sister Yue."

"Yes."

"Would you like to say hello and walk around?"

"Forget it."

Walking around, a lawn appeared on the side of the road.

By the light of the street lamp, Starfish looked at the text of a stone tablet on the lawn.

"Miyagi Prefectural Girls' College ......"

"Northeast Imperial University, the predecessor of Northeast University, was formed by the integration of several schools, and this school is one of them." Morimi explained to her, "This is the equivalent of the ruins of those schools. ”

"That's right."

As we walked on, another stone monument appeared on the lawn in front of us, and next to it was a statue leaning against a verdant pine tree.

"Sendai Medical College ......"

Starfish looked at the stone tablet, and then at the statue, and on the front was the name of the person who was erected.

"'Portrait of Mr. Lu Xun'...... He seems to be a very powerful Chinese. ”

Naruse and Morimi nodded together.

"If you have time, you can read his article." Morimi said.

Starfish answered, as for whether she would see it, only she knew.

A few people continued on their way.

Walking along this road to the end, a school building appears in front of you, and that is the examination room where Takikawa Yue will take the entrance exam tomorrow.

Hikaru Takikawa looked back at the road and said to his sister, "Let's take this road tomorrow." ”

"Okay."

"In the school building, can I go in now?"

Naruse walked over to take a look, and soon came back and shook his head at a few people.

"I said it was going to be an exam room tomorrow, but it's already closed."

"Then forget it, just take a stroll around and let Yue get acquainted with the school."

"After Sister Yue entered the school, she didn't attend classes on this campus."

"Huh?"

"After entering the school, all first- and second-year students in the school will take liberal arts classes at the Kawauchi Campus." Takigawa said.

"Is the Kawauchi campus far away?"

"It's not too far, but it's a subway ride."

"The Northeast is so big......"

"The four campuses are separated."

After walking around the flat campus for a while, several people came out of the intersection on the other side and prepared to go back to the hotel.

Looking at the long street under the street lamp, the starfish looked at the sky again.

"It's not snowing here, but it's still cold."

"It's still winter."

Back at the hotel, Naruse went to ask about the location of the restaurant, and the answer was that it was on the twenty-fifth floor, with an excellent view.

Back upstairs, Naruse swiped his card in, and the girls followed—it wasn't time to go to bed yet.

"The double bed in this hotel is also a little too big."

"Actually, it's two beds together."

Hikaru Takikawa lay down on the bed, turned over again, and looked for a gap that didn't exist between the two beds.

"Haruhai can sleep in two beds by himself."

"Well, I sleep here in the first half of the night and that in the second half of the night."

"Haha."

The girls occupied both beds and sat on them chatting, and Naruse stood by the window for a while, sat on the sofa, and looked out the window.

Chatting and chatting, seeing that Takikawa Moon was also looking out of the window, Morimi moved to her.

"Sister Yue, is she nervous now?"

"Huh? It's fine. ”

Takigawa Moon looked back and smiled, "At this point, there's nothing to be nervous about. ”

"I really envy Sister Yue's mentality." She honestly revealed her thoughts, "At this time, I probably can't relax." ”

Takigawa looked at her, "Kazuha is too tight." ”

Morimi sighed lightly, "I can't control myself. ”

"But that's normal, because you're only in the first grade."

"It's going to be second grade soon."

"That's right, but at this stage for me, it's still two years away." Takigawa said.

“……”

Morimi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say, and finally just nodded slowly.

"Hmm...... Two years to go. ”

Takigawa looked at her, and then at Naruse who was sitting on the sofa.

"Hasn't Chunhai's mentality always been very good?"

“……”

The two glanced at each other, and Morimi said, "He is not a normal person, unlike Sister Yue." ”

Naruse quickly fought back, "I don't think you're normal either. ”

Morimi sneered, and he looked out the window again.

"I don't think there are any normal people ......in the top ten of the grade," Starfish whispered to Hikaru Takikawa.

As a result, when she turned her head, Naoko next to her was looking at her with a smile.

“…… Naoko doesn't count. ”

She just smiled.

The small talk continued.

Topics range from the restaurants I just ate at to the four campuses of Tohoku University to the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck many years ago.

Takikawa didn't speak much, but basically listened.

When the conversation turns to areas that she is not interested in, her attention gradually shifts to the person she is talking to.

looked at the girls around her, and her gaze stayed on Morimi and her sister's faces for the longest time.

The mentality of Kazuha and Light would be nice if they could neutralize each other......

This thought popped into my head.

She didn't let it go, but continued to think about it.

These two people are two extremes.

A goal that is too clear and always in mind can turn into a huge pressure that is constantly pressing on the head;

The other is completely unable to find a goal, so he can only use the pursuit of girls to fill the emptiness in his heart.

Even her dependence on her sister is only a piece of those "fillers" for a longer time.

If these two people can neutralize it, Yiba, who is relaxed, and his sister who is no longer confused, what will it look like?

“……”

Having said that, I'm going to take the entrance exam tomorrow morning, and I'm worried about this now, isn't it too relaxing?

Takigawa suddenly patted his cheek.

"What's wrong?" Takigawa looked over, "Is the moon already sleepy?" ”

"Nope."

"But it's really not early." Naoko said, "Sister Yue is going to get up early tomorrow, so let's rest early." ”

"We've got to get up early, too."

"You don't have to get up in the morning, anyway, the exam room is nearby, and it's no problem for me to go alone." Takigawa said.

"It's coming." Morimi said.

Naruse by the window also turned his head, "I don't want to miss the breakfast at the hotel either." ”

Takigawa Tsuki smiled, "Okay. ”

So a few people got down from Naruse's bed, cleaned up a little for him, and went back to their rooms to wash and rest.

Except for Naoko.

Straightening the crumpled sheets, she sat down again, then slowly lay back again, looking at the ornate lights overhead.

"This hotel is even more upscale than the one we stayed in Kyoto last time we stayed."

Naruse was still sitting on the sofa, "Yes, the price is about the same." ”

"The interior of this hotel has been updated a bit."

"That's right."

Naoko stood up sideways and looked at him, "It's so expensive." ”

"Hmm...... I didn't use the previous card when I booked the room, otherwise my mother would have to talk about it again when she saw the bill. ”

"And booked two rooms......"

She paused, her voice softer, "One room is enough." ”

Naruse was silent for a moment, then looked at her as well.

"It's all booked."

She replied softly.

"I'll pay attention next time." He said again.

“……”

Naoko looked at him, and her heart beat suddenly.

"Hmm."

After a few moments, she sat up, looked at the bright light above her head, and stretched her long waist.

"It's time for me to go back to my room."

"Well, good night."
