"Is there something wrong? Shiina-kun. ”

He didn't have to wait long before Kobayakawa Kazuki's neutral voice came from his phone.

"Is there something wrong with Xiao Nai?" Shiina asked.

On the way back, he had already found an excuse, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, "Your old man asked someone to beat me up."

The girl was silent for a moment and whispered. "Well, Xiao Nai can't take care of herself anymore."

"How is that possible?"

Although he had been mentally prepared, Shiina Kiri was still in disbelief.

It's only been more than a month since she left, and the lively and smiling girl can only lie on the hospital bed and can't move?

After learning about the girl's condition, he looked up the basic information of the disease on the Internet.

Even though ALS is said to be incurable and the disease gets worse over time, the average survival time is three to five years.

"The Blue Sky Family will definitely be able to invite the top medical team!"

It was also because of this that he did not keep Aokora from leaving at all.

And even the time given on the side of the blue subtitles is four months.

Wait, if four months is the countdown to death, then it seems reasonable that the girl's condition is getting worse?

"Yes, that medical team is among the best in the world, and has developed a special drug to delay the disease, and even a few patients have retained their full language skills and most of their mobility as a result."

"However, Xiao Nai's condition suddenly deteriorated."

Unsurprisingly, there will be a "but", a helpless "but".

The special medicine developed by Katsu Takagi was like a life-saving medicine for that patient, and it greatly slowed down the deterioration of the condition.

Relatively speaking, it can even be said that the disease has been "cured", except for the occasional appearance of muscle weakness.

But why can't it cure Qingkong Nai, obviously even if it is in that woman, it has a lot of effect.

"Sudden deterioration?" Shiina Kiri grasped the key point.

He vaguely felt that he had something to do with him, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared today.

Suda of the group, what kind of thing to say, took him to a place before dark.

But these are all nice words.

After the black van on the side of the road opened just now, the men in the suit were all directly beaten with iron rods, and his left hand was still swollen and painful.

If you really just take him there, you can choose to negotiate instead of doing it directly.

In this way, it shows that the people who contacted Suda Zuo must have the intention of letting these people teach him a lesson.

I don't know if this "meaning" is Shiina Kiri, which is expressed by Shinsuke Aoku.

Of course, it's likely that the people under you are observing.

It's as if the dog will make a flattering gesture based on the owner's face.

One thing is for sure, though, that Shinsuke Aozora is unhappy with him.

"Yes, it got worse all of a sudden, I mentioned something to you before."

"Hmm."

He remembered that Kobayakawa Kazuki did say it once, on the way to school on Monday this week, but that time Kobayakawa Kazuki said that Aokuna was a little uncomfortable.

"Can you let me see Xiao Nai?"

"I can't."

Kazuki Kobayakawa explained. "She wouldn't want to see you, and now she doesn't even want to see me."

In fact, although she went to the sanatorium on Friday, she didn't see Aokorna, even though Aokora knew that it was her outside the door.

"She wouldn't want to see anyone if she could."

That pink-haired girl had amazed everyone, she was not only beautiful, she showed amazing talent in all the fields she touched, and she amazed the geniuses who knew her.

She's the most talented one, and she doesn't really need someone else to be the backdrop.

She's actually very proud, and she doesn't want anyone to see her current embarrassment.

Perhaps, because since childhood, that woman has been lying there, and now she is lying there.

She's been through it firsthand, and she doesn't want the pity of others.

"Also, she's emotionally unstable right now, and sometimes she needs to rely on tranquilizers."

Kazuki Kobayakawa will also wonder if Shiina Kiri really has a way to save Aokuna?

If there's no way, then it's better not to see each other.

This wasn't to help Aokuna make a decision, if she really wanted to see him, she wouldn't have to wait for the current situation.

Until Monday, she was able to move on her own and didn't need anyone's help.

Even on Monday, she was only a little unwell.

That day, Aokora would still call her "sister" with a smile, and hug her arm affectionately on the hospital bed, just so that she would secretly bring a matcha ice cream when she came next time.

The girl may just be suddenly hungry, after all, after being admitted to the sanatorium, all the food and drink will be carefully arranged by a special person, which is very light.

It seems that only Kazuki Kobayakawa can meet this request, but unfortunately she did not agree that day.

Well, if she had agreed that day, she would have blamed herself for her illness when the girl's condition worsened.

"Squad leader..."

"Don't be deadly, just say anything."

“……”

"Hello man, did you guess what I was trying to say?" Shiina Kiri was powerless to complain.

Actually, now is not the time to joke, but jokes are always more relaxing.

"Seriously?" Kobayakawa Kazuki's tone finally changed, and he became a lot more eager.

"I haven't said anything yet, are you playing riddles?"

"Be serious!"

"Wait, on the phone, will it be spied on?"

Shiina Kiri had to think about it, after all, he had almost been kidnapped before.

"I'm coming to you now, are you at home?"

"Well, hang up."

"Don't hang up! What are you thinking? I'll be there in a minute. ”

There was a "bang" sound on the other side of the phone, followed by a few "misses......

Rich people are willful, and they have so many maids at home.

Shiina Kiri counted the time, and in less than four minutes, Kazuki Kobayakawa said on his phone. "I've arrived."

This was followed by the sound of the doors closing.

After another minute or so, there was a knock on the door.

"Don't knock, squadman."

Shiina Kiri suddenly stopped in a hurry, because the scene he wanted to see had already appeared.

"Can't you open the door sooner?!"

Kazuki Kobayakawa panted and leaned against the door frame, his face a little angry.

When the car stopped on the side of the road, she told him that she had arrived!

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Shiina Kirishi found out that this tomboy didn't wear men's clothes today?

Although she didn't wear a skirt, the short sleeves were clearly women's.

Moreover, there is actually a amplitude on the chest......

"What do you say?"

Kazuki Kobayakawa turned around and closed the door, then took off his shoes by holding on to the door in the entryway.

Why the hurry?

In fact, although she and Aokong Nai are sisters, the two have really known each other for no longer than Shiina Kiri.

Obviously I was still hostile to Aokuna at first because of my mother's affairs, and when I was in the Sakai bathroom, I still felt that Aokora was provoking her, and I was obviously ......

But Kobayakawa Kazuki doesn't want her to die now.

When you die, there's nothing.

"Let's go to the living room, it won't change."

After the meeting, Kazuki Kobayakawa sat on the sofa and took the water cup handed over by Shiina Kiri, and drank it with his head up. "Can you say it now?"

"Well, I can save Xiao Nai."

"So why do you say it now?"

Her question didn't contain even the slightest suspicion.

"Why?"

Shiina Kiri picked up the water glass in front of him and took a sip.

Because you're too difficult to attack, squad leader, if you're not so arrogant, how can you drag it out until now.

"Because it's a big price."

Shiina Kiri nodded with his head down, his tone a little low.

He might think now that if he had the skill of "acting", the skill experience value would go up.

"What do you mean?" Kobayakawa Kazuki's face froze.

"Literally." Shiina Kiri seemed to have restrained his emotions and said as usual.

Kobayakawa Kazuki remembered that after the boy knew about Aokuna's condition, his expression was excited, and he wanted to say something, but he changed his words in an instant; In that room that only belongs to her, facing her questioning, it means that she doesn't know what it means to save Aokuna......

Her lips trembled. "You're going to die?"

Shiina fog. “……”

Too much brain-filling.

But he still said it through this sentence. "It's not enough to die, it's just a few fewer years to live."

"You'd better be precise! Shiina fog! ”

Kazuki Kobayakawa propped himself on the coffee table and gritted his teeth to look at Shiina Kiri.

"Uh."

The girl's short sleeves are noticeably a bit on the oversized side.

"What are you looking at?" Kazuki Kobayakawa took a deep breath and lowered his head in accordance with his gaze.

"The blue one is kind of cute?"

The imaginary scene did not appear, and the girl calmly held her right hand to her chest.

"Can you be serious?"

None of this matters compared to that "price".

If that "price" can be offset, what if it is shown to him?

"Enliven the atmosphere, enliven the atmosphere, squad leader you should know." Shiina Kiri coughed lightly.

"How can you explain the cost? Have you ever played the game? ”

"What game?"

"It doesn't have to be a game, it's okay, anime, too."

"There will always be props and skills that need to appear because of the plot, like "life sharing" and "soul chain"?"

"To put it bluntly."

"I've already said before, after using this "prop" to save Xiao Nai, I will live a few days less, and I don't know the specific time."

With a series of foreshadowing and jokes before, Shiina Kiri felt that there was no flaw in this lie.

"You ......" Kobayakawa Kazuki looked at him deadly, perhaps because his eyes had been staring for too long, and they were already a little red.

"Why ...... Me"

"What are you talking about, squad leader. You've been asking me since a month ago. ”

"I mean, why should I make decisions for her! Why me! ”

Why is she the one who can let Shiina Kiri into the sanatorium!

On one side is his sister, and on the other side is him.

Shiina fog. “……”

He suddenly realized that this lie would hurt the girl in front of him deeply.

"Because I'm selfish."

But he had to.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, people always have some wishes before they die, and they can make up for their failed lives, if they can ...... death."

"Shut up!!"

Before he could finish his words, Kazuki Kobayakawa jerked up and covered his mouth.

Shiina Kirishi found that this girl who used to be the second in middle school and later had a poisonous tongue actually really cried.

Please, your character has always been a hard-mouthed tomboy, how can you cry so ugly?

Eh, why do you still have a runny nose, I'm really not ashamed.

You're going to make me guilty, because I'm lying.

"Shut up... You shut up! ”

Well, it's still fierce.

If you were another heroine, she might have been unable to squat down, how could she get more and more vigorous!

Shiina Kirishi grabbed her hand. "Can you listen to me?"

"Shut up! I'll let you go see her, you and tell her yourself!! ”

“……”

"The latter words are not very easy to say to Xiao Nai......"

"What do you mean?"

"It's what people wish before they die... Wait, don't cover my mouth......"

Shiina Kirishi watched her finally calm down a little, but she was clenching her fists and accumulating strength, and hurriedly leaned back on the sofa, as far away as possible.

"What wish?" Kazuki Kobayakawa stared into his eyes, but finally didn't pounce.

"I like you."

Perhaps infected by the girl's sad emotions, he didn't want to beat around the bush.

"I want to die...... Well, I hope you can be my girlfriend. ”

Before, he actually thought about using the condition he won in the monthly exam to make Kobayakawa Kazuki agree to be his girlfriend.

But the success rate is actually very difficult to say, so I plan to use it as the last hole card.

"Do you know what you're talking about?!"

"I'm Aokuna's sister!!"

If it weren't for the premise of "death", Kobayakawa Kazuki might have kicked him to death when Shiina Kiri said this.

"Can't you?" Shiina sighed.

"I'm Aokuna's sister..."The girl's tone was much lower.

What is this?

When the time came, Aokong Na got better, but found that his favorite boy was snatched away by his sister.

The two were relatively silent.

Until......

"Here you go."

"What?"

"If you want me, I'll give it to you."

Kazuki Kobayakawa began to undress with an indifferent face.

After a while, the short sleeves were taken off directly, and only a small blue dress remained on the upper body.

She held out her right hand backwards, and she wanted to untie it......

"Wait, wait."

He hurriedly grabbed her hand.

"I didn't mean to do that! I just want to have a relationship with you, not like it has to be! ”

Kazuki Kobayakawa. “？”

"No, it's just a relationship, if you don't want Xiao Nai to know, we can't even say it."

"Cheating?"

Shiina fog. “……”

"How can this be considered cheating?" Shiina Kiri stalks his neck.

Well, how is this not cheating......

Forget it, as long as the blue subtitles are recognized, steal it?

"I just want to ...... before I die"

"You try to die again, believe it or not, I'll kick you to death right now?"

“？？？”

"Will you say yes?" Shiina Kiri is helpless.

Kobayakawa Kazuki was silent for a long time.

"Can you hide it from Yuxia?"

She didn't want the weak heroine to be sad, and felt that she was her best friend in order to snatch the male protagonist.

Obviously, her original idea was to be their best friend, but ......

But why did so many things happen later?

"Yes."

“……”

“……”

"Okay."
