Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

This autumn rain came suddenly and was far more severe than anyone had imagined.

"It's a good thing we left the cafe early, otherwise we don't know how long we would have to wait for the rain to stop." Yui said thankfully.

"Let me lend you my umbrella for a while." Yukino pointed to the umbrella beside Yui's feet and gestured.

At that time, the sky outside the window was gray and gloomy, covering my heart.

"Then will you two share an umbrella?" Yui began to worry that the two of them would get wet.

Knowing Yui's concerns, Su Qing said:

"It's okay. I can hold two people with my umbrella. Besides, I will take her home first."

"Oh well…"

It can only be like this. Who is it that made me careless and didn't bring an umbrella?

"Ding~ The train has arrived at the station..."

As the train warning sounded, it also meant Yui's departure.

"I'm leaving now. Be careful on your way back." Yui bent down to pick up Yukino's umbrella, walked out of the train, and waved goodbye to the two of them.

"You too." Yukino waved her hand gently and said softly.

"Be careful of puddles and cars on the road, don't get splashed." Su Qing thought about it, and finally only thought of the funny scene of Yui being splashed, so he reminded.

Rather than saying it was a warning, it was more like mocking the other person for being the kind of person who would encounter such a thing.

"I know!" Yui held the umbrella with one hand and made a face at Su Qing with the other.

"Hehe." Su Qing shook his head and smiled.

It was because the wind wasn't strong, otherwise the umbrella would have been blown away and Yui wouldn't know where to cry.

As the train door slowly closed, Yui's smile gradually disappeared from Su Qing and Yukino's sight.

"She seemed to be waving at us."

Although the glass was blocked by the rain, Yukino could still vaguely see Yui's appearance.

There is still a pleasant smile on her cute face.

She waved her hands like a tireless butterfly, dancing in the heavy rain.

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Yukino felt that Yui was waving her hands faster and faster.

"Is she a fool...?"

The train was moving very fast, and Yui's figure soon disappeared from Yukino's pupils.

She turned her head back, and the cute girl with a pink bun on one side who affectionately called her "Xiaoxue" still appeared in her mind.

"It's raining so hard, why don't you go back quickly..." Yukino whispered to herself, just like a guardian who is worried that his child might get into danger if he comes home late.

When you peel off the outer layer called "blame", you will find that it is only a thin layer.

What's left is only the sweet heart called "Care".

"She is just like that. It's not like you've known her for the first time."

“That’s true…”

After a question and an answer, the conversation between the two came to a temporary end.

From the moment the tram door closed, Su Qing's eyes had been fixed on the front.

There happened to be no one sitting there, so it was an empty seat.

And in that empty space there was also a piece of glass, which was also gray.

You can still vaguely see the trees on the roadside and pedestrians hurriedly taking shelter from the rain.

Gradually, Su Qing only saw his own appearance in the mirror, as if he was sitting opposite him.

But on that side, Yui was not there.

And Yukino, naturally, didn't sit there either.

"What are you looking at?" Yukino hesitated for a while and finally asked.

Although I told myself in my heart that I was not alone with the other person.

But after Yui left, this was the first time she was alone with a boy on the train.

No, it actually has nothing to do with boys or girls...

In fact, she was feeling a little embarrassed about her behavior in the cafe just now.

What if, what if he asks me why I did that, how should I answer?

After all, why did I do that...?

"Nothing." Su Qing retracted his gaze and said lightly, "We are about to arrive at the station."

"Ding~ The train has arrived at the station..."

Su Qing moved almost in sync with the tram announcement. When the announcement sounded, he picked up his umbrella, stood up, and walked to the tram door, waiting quietly for it to open.

When Yukino reacted and arrived at the tram door, Su Qing was already waiting for her with his dark umbrella.

"Let's go, I'll take you back first."

"Well, please."

"It should."

The two of them walked in silence towards the apartment where Yukino lived, without saying a word all the way.

Perhaps the only sound is the dripping sound of rain flowing down the umbrella cloth, from the umbrella cap to the umbrella buckle, and finally falling into the puddles on the road.

However, this silence in the rain does not seem oppressive.

On the contrary, there is actually a sense of comfort.

Suddenly, Su Qing grabbed one of Xueno's arms and pulled her over.

"There was a puddle over there just now. You don't want your shoes and socks to get wet, right?" Su Qing explained.

"I, I didn't see it." Yukino lowered her eyes, lightly tied her hair, and said in a low voice.

Because in the past, Su Qing, Yui and she had always been together, and with Yui's presence, the topics among the three of them seemed to never end.

Now that Yui is gone, Yukino finds that she and Su Qing don't seem to have much to talk about.

No...actually it's because of those three kicks I just gave you, right?

Thinking of this, Xueno couldn't help but sigh softly.

She naturally regarded Su Qing as a friend, but unlike the enthusiastic Yui, she was not quite used to getting along with Su Qing.

"Come to think of it, your name is [Yukino], and your sister's name is [Yangno]?" Su Qing suddenly asked a nonsense question.

"I think I have no reason to lie to you." Xueno was stunned for a moment and said, not expecting Su Qing to bring up the topic.

"No, what I mean is..." Su Qing stretched out a hand towards the outside of the umbrella, then quickly retracted it, shook it, and continued:

"You were named Yukino because you were born on a snowy day, while your sister was born on a sunny day?"

"Yeah, pretty casual."

Whether it was Xue No or Yang No, both names came from her mother, and her father had almost no say in the matter.

However, it does fit her style to hastily name the two sisters based on the weather conditions at the time of their birth...

Whenever she thought of her mother, Yukino would fall into silence.

"No, I think this name is beautiful." Su Qing said softly.

"...You don't have to force yourself to praise such a random name." Xueno shook her head, indicating that she didn't care. Since she learned the origin of her name, she no longer had high expectations for the so-called "name".

She is who she is, Yukinoshita Yukino.

This is the only thing that will not change.

"Do you think I'm forcing myself?" Su Qing turned his head and asked back.

"Isn't it?" Yukino also turned her head, and their eyes met, but soon, Yukino looked away first.

After all, she almost stepped into a puddle just now, so she had to pay attention to her feet at all times. As Su Qing said, it would be bad if her shoes and socks were dirty.
