On the day of the school-level referee, Eiji Mizuhashi picked up his schoolbag and ran to the courtroom as soon as he got out of school.

She believes that a warm-hearted and kind senior like Makoto Kyushu will never seriously violate the school rules and become an "immoral student".

So even if she is weak and useless, she hopes to give her senior a boost and cheer him on the school-level referee.

But that day was also the day when the nightmare began again.

"Yo~ Mizuhashi-san, are you going to see a school-level referee?" She is stopped in her way by two boys in her class, who are the bad students who often bully her.

If it had been before, Eiji Mizuhashi would probably have trembled with fear. But since she had the encouragement of her seniors, she was able to harden a little: "I'm sorry, please get out of the way!" ”

"Eh~ Those seniors are really good to you, they can actually make you have the courage to speak to us with this attitude~" A student crossed his arms and sneered:

"But behold, their days are at an end."

"What... What do you mean? "Eiji Mizuhashi is nervous.

"Don't lie to yourself, Mizuhashi." Another student said, "How can that Kyushu senior of yours win the school-level referee?" What's more, I heard that there is still the Ministry of Information behind this matter! He's completely finished! ”

"Thoroughly... Finished? Eiji Mizuhashi's eyes showed unease: "Impossible! The seniors will definitely win! I believe in him! ”

"My friends in the Discipline Committee have already told me that the referee is just a formality." The student swore by this:

"Makoto Kyushu is now the common enemy of the Information Department, the Student Council, and the Discipline Committee! He will definitely be dropped out of school! Absolute! ”

Hearing the news, Eiji Mizuhashi was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and his body trembled suddenly, and he almost fell to the ground.

These days, Bad San has been saying to him, "No problem, Brother Kyushu will definitely be able to create miracles." But Eiji Mizuhashi is actually very clear that the hope of victory for his predecessors is extremely slim.

Finally, there is a senior who is willing to care about himself, why did it evolve to this point? ... Eiji Mizuhashi felt that the world was too cruel.

"But, my father is a county councilor, so he has some power." At this time, one of the students showed a treacherous expression:

"If I ask my father to intercede for the senior, the school may be able to open up to him~"

Hearing this, Eiji Mizuhashi stretched his brows and hurriedly asked, "Is it really possible?!" ”

"Eh~ Of course you can!" A bad student reached out and put his arm around Eiji Mizuhashi's shoulder: "We've always been friends, right~"

Mizuhashi Eiji's heart sank and asked, "You... Does talking count? ”

It's so easy to deceive, this stupid man... The bad student thought so and nodded, "Of course, as long as you make us happy, I will go and ask my father to help." ”

Eiji Mizuhashi bit his lip lightly and lowered his head weakly: "What do you want me to do?" ”

"I can't play with you during this time, our high school life has become boring~" The bad student laughed triumphantly:

"We can't find a "friend" to replace you during this time, but we're holding back our anger. So you're willing to play with us, Mizuhashi~? ”

After hesitating for a moment with a painful expression, Eiji Mizuhashi said in a voice that was about to cry, "As long as you can help the seniors."

Then, Eiji Mizuhashi was taken into the empty classroom by them.

"Haha, Mizuhashi's reaction is so funny!"

"Wait... Wait a minute... Is it a girl? ”

"How can anyone come to school dressed as a man? Sick! If someone finds out, you won't be able to tell! ”

"Don't panic yet! Shuiqiao, spare you once today, and forget this matter first! If you dare to go out and talk nonsense, I will ask my father to withdraw all those seniors from school! ”

Even if the two of them were usually arrogant, they were just "problem students", and they immediately understood the seriousness of the matter, and they didn't dare to do anything to her, so they fled the scene in a panic.

After all, if this matter is poked out, I am afraid that it will not be perfunctory for ordinary "student play", and it may even make them be labeled as "harassment" or even "sex crimes", causing them to be pointed at for the rest of their lives.

After a long time, Eiji Mizuhashi wiped the wound on his forehead, sorted out his crumpled school uniform, and walked out with a wrecked expression.

Obviously protected by seniors, he was still bullied, and he had to affect the seniors... It's so stupid, it's so useless.

People like me don't deserve the protection of seniors at all.... Eiji Mizuhashi thought with great shame, and wanted to choke his neck on the spot.

After that, she had to hide this humiliating memory.

In the class, the two students came from time to time to question whether they had stabbed the matter out, and kept threatening to let their father go to the chairman of the board of directors and withdraw all the seniors from school.

At lunchtime, she wanted to ask her seniors for help countless times. But the words are always stuck in the throat again, and they can never be spoken.

She was afraid that what the two classmates said was true, and their father really had the strength to fire the seniors.

Looking up at the seniors who greeted her, Eiji Mizuhashi couldn't imagine the expressions on their faces that blamed them after they got the withdrawal notice.

Yes, just bear with it... Just keep on with it, just as you did before. Although my life will be more painful, everyone can live in peace and sound, which is also my way of repaying my seniors.

Eiji Mizuhashi kept persuading herself in her heart, but it made her feel heart-rending pain and could barely breathe.

Throughout the life of "Mizuhashi Hideji", although there are no big ups and downs, they are all tragedies one after another.

Her parents love boys and pour all their love into her brother, treating her only as a drag bottle.

In the past, the girls' group in the school was jealous of her good looks, so they spread rumors that she went to the hotel with her uncle, so that she was ostracized by her classmates.

So she became obsessed with light novels, immersing herself in fantasy stories.

But even this last dream harbor doesn't seem to be very popular with her. She tried to submit light novels but repeatedly hit a wall, never succeeded, and no one was even willing to encourage her with a "really hard work", which made her feel like a waste without any talent and value.

By the time she entered high school, she was already in a state of self-decadence.

She pretends to be a boy because she is afraid that the girls will be jealous of her and gossip.

But after pretending to be a boy, some boys thought she was weak and easy to bully, so they came to her to find fault.

Her heart was already withered and numb, and she just continued to endure everything in silence. It's like a walking corpse staggering to the end of life, but you don't know why you keep moving forward.

Until a month ago, her predecessors gave her the first light in her life, making her understand what "friendship" and "youth" are, but it also became the reason for her complete collapse.

Because since then, she who has enjoyed the light can no longer get used to the bleak life she used to have.

She finally understood that the so-called "despair" is the hope of gaining and losing.

......

After school, Makoto Kyushu went to help the store manager distribute flyers.

At this time, it is approaching summer, and the weather is gradually getting warmer. After handing out the flyers, he wiped his sweat and decided to go to a nearby coffee shop to blow the air conditioner and take a break.

He had been sitting in the coffee shop for a short time, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice:

"Oops, long time no see, little brother in red~"

Makoto Kyushu turned his head vigilantly and found that it was Miss Fortune Teller whom he had met on the street earlier.

"You haven't contacted me at all during this time, but that's to be expected, after all, your common sense makes you distrust the guidance of fate." Night Tour Tianyin held a cup of coffee and sat next to him without authorization:

"I feel that your fate has changed, let me help you divinate again."

"I'm sorry, Miss Nightwalk." Kyushu Makoto sighed and politely declined: "I'm going to work soon, let's talk about it next time." ”

Night Tour Tianyin couldn't help but take out a deck of tarot cards from the pocket of the black skirt and drew two of them.

"Ahh Night Tour Tianyin drew out a [Queen] card and smiled softly:

"The [Queen] of your destiny has returned to her throne. The haughty queen loses everything after her disgrace, but she also gains even more precious treasures. From then on, you'll be more in the power of your life. ”

Immediately afterward, she drew a second card, but her expression became worried: "This is... The Great Reverse [Love]..."

"The Great Reversal?" Makoto Kyushu had never heard of this word.

"Will die." A terrible word suddenly popped out of the mouth of the night wandering Tianyin: "[Love] will die." ”

"What do you mean? What do you mean to die?! Kyushu Makoto also became nervous, staring at her with anxious eyes:

"You make it clear! If you think your divination is true, then tell me what exactly is meant by "love"? It sounds like a matter of human life! ”

"I'm sorry, guest..."Night Tour Tianyin shook her head in frustration: "I don't have the ability to spy on its true identity, but the results of divination tell me that [Love] will encounter an inevitable catastrophe of death, and her fate has reached the end." ”

"Why do you fortune tellers always like to be so alarmist and not explain?" Kyushu Cheng was annoyed by her and complained: "You just want to induce panic among the guests, take the opportunity for them to cheat money!" ”

"Those soothsayers who deceive others are indeed like this..."Night You Tianyin put away the tarot cards without saying a word, and had nothing to refute at all.

At this moment, Makoto Kyushu's mobile phone rang, and the caller ID was "Sakufumi Yagawa".

"What's the matter, Senior Sister Yachuan?" Makoto Kyushu picked up his phone and asked curiously.

This is the first time she has taken the initiative to call herself since the two added contact information to each other.

[I was discussing my graduation plan with my teacher just now, and after I saw the Mizuhashi student walking in the direction of the rooftop, her eyes were not quite right. Sakifumi Yagawa's tone was a little nervous.

"Strange... Mizuhashi-san hasn't participated in the club, so he should have gone home at this point, right? Makoto Kyushu wondered:

"Why is she still in school?"

[I saw her ten minutes ago, and I'm home now.] But I don't think it's quite right, so it's better to contact you. It always feels... There was a smell of wanting to die in her body. 】

"Want to die?"

[Probably I saw a lot of people die in front of me when I was a child, so this feeling is familiar to me. I don't have her contact information, you can care a little bit. 】

"Then I'll contact her right away." After Makoto Kyushu finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Immediately afterward, he called Shuiqiao's junior again, but found that he couldn't get through.

"Strange... She's off? Makoto Kyushu looked puzzled.

The night tour Tianyin next to him bit his fingernails and read in pieces:

"[Love] is dead... Why do you die in love? It's weird..."

Somehow, Makoto Kyushu suddenly became uneasy. It was as if a voice was telling him:

Hurry to school!

"!" Makoto Kyushu slapped the table and got up, and rushed out of the coffee shop as fast as he could.
