[1bitHeart] The closed world of you and me

"It's true to say that... It's just that you didn't talk about this topic before. Brother Men, you suddenly said that, did you start to feel that I was in the way, so you wanted to drive me home?"

Probably because even if he didn't read his mind, he could keenly hear the meaning from the door's words, so Nanessi asked directly, with a slightly hurt tone, and carefully observed the door's expression, showing a little pitiful expression When he did something wrong or wanted something more expensive when he was a child, he would usually put on this face to look at his parents, so he was very familiar with this expression.

When Men was young, because he could see the values, he knew that this trick was especially useful for people who were not familiar with him, who hadn’t hated him yet, or who had a milder personality and a more talkative personality. Even parents who get along day and night have a certain chance of softening their hearts. , but it was also the first time to be stared at by "myself" like this, and to feel the feeling of someone who was once looked at like this by myself──especially when I realized that now, to me, Nainasi has become like an "other" It's not 'self', so the pitiful staring is not completely useless for him, even if he knows that there are not too many real emotions in it, the door still expresses the original plan to say it outright and ruthlessly.' That's it" I swallowed it back, and now I may have imitated my appearance and pretended to be "Brother Men" for too long, the brother mode will automatically start, and I will switch to a more gentle and patient attitude and say:

"It's not like this, it's just that there may be more things after a while, and I may not have the energy to distract you to take care of you. It's fine if you always stay at home like when you first came here. Now you have to work and go Those who make friends always walk around in places I can't take care of, and I also worry about what happens to you when I don't notice."

Said some comforting words, but even though his tone softened a little because of Nanessi's expression, and he still didn't intend to change his mind, after a pause, he continued:

"Not to mention this, you have been here for a few months, and your parents have always been worried about you. You know, they always hope that you can go back to school, even if you are in the original school. None of my friends want you to go back. Auntie and the others also said before I brought you here that if you don’t want to stay there to go to school, you can transfer to other schools. Whether it’s making friends or other things You can start again in a new place──Just like you have made friends in the streets nearby, I think even if you go to other schools, the situation in the new environment should be fine, so I just I think it is almost enough for you to end your recuperation and go back to Zhenbai Town."

What Men said is actually true, if it wasn’t for his own selfishness when he took Nanessi away in the first place, it wasn’t really just a good-hearted cousin who refused to go to school because he was traumatized in school, so he brought him here To recuperate physically and mentally, he should have talked about this issue when Naixi regained his energy and started to make friends everywhere, instead of waiting until today when he suddenly found that his mentality had changed unconsciously, and then he mentioned it to Naixi This thing comes.

"...Can you really not stay?"

Probably what the door said was reasonable, but Nanessi didn't whine like an ignorant child and said that she didn't want to go back, she just looked at the door and asked for further confirmation.

"Well, after all, there's no need for that anymore, right?"

Knowing that they are the type who have no choice but to accept and comply with the demands of others' strong attitudes, rather than resisting, the door's tone is soft, but it is rare to reveal a bit of toughness that cannot be refused. A question of reluctance.

It can probably be seen that this time the door really intends to send himself home, and Nanessi did not continue to argue, but just lowered his eyes and remained silent for a few seconds as if thinking about something, then nodded as if he had made up his mind, and then he continued He looked up at the door and said:

"Then I know. However, I want to call and talk to my parents about this matter in person, and it will take a little time to say goodbye to my friends because of the part-time job, so I want to wait until next week when I am preparing to go to school. thing, okay?"

"Well, no problem. It's rare to make friends and say goodbye to them when you're about to leave. If you have trouble with your part-time job, you can come to your brother. I'm going to communicate with him."

Seeing Naixi nodding, her expression didn't seem to be reluctant or perfunctory, she listened seriously and made a decision, the door was relieved, but it probably took a while, even if it was his own decision , but suddenly wanted to separate, but at the same time, he also had a feeling of reluctance in his heart, so when he heard the conditions attached by Nanessi, the door agreed without hesitation.

Anyway, he is not bad for the past few days, and even though he didn't bring much luggage when he came here, except for a few uniforms, he changed his underwear and a few very old black and white game consoles, but he stayed for a while, Some clothes have not been sent back after washing, and there are a few more newly bought clothes for him to take back. Nanessi bought a bunch of games and game consoles by himself, which are scattered everywhere in the apartment and need to be cleaned up. It's also a lot of work, and it's impossible to pack up all day tomorrow and pack Nanessi and luggage back to Zhenbai Town, so I don't mind too much if you give it a few days—it's just that when the agreed time comes, Nanessi will still be there. If he intends to be lazy, he will not soften his heart and will drive people home directly.

"Well, I know! Brother, don't worry, it's late tonight, and my parents are probably asleep. I'll call tomorrow morning, good night today!"

Probably because the problem was solved and Nanessi, who was relieved, showed a smiling face. After speaking, he yawned as if he was sleepy again, and then closed his eyes to get ready for sleep.

The door has no objection to this either. After the matter on his mind was resolved, he began to fall asleep like Nanaixi, but before falling asleep, he looked at Nanaixi's sleeping face with closed eyes for a few seconds, and saw Nanaixi's face. There is no sentimentality or nostalgia due to parting, and sleeping faces that have not changed much as usual. Even though they know that they are such characters that once they make a decision, they will not be unwilling to be obsessed with hesitation, but how much Still a little uncomfortable.

I don't want to keep it any longer... Anyway, I have kept it for a few months.

The door couldn't help poking Naixi's forehead with his hand. Nanaixi should not be asleep, but he was probably sleepy, and he didn't open his eyes to see why the door poked him suddenly. He just shrank back a little, adjusted his posture and continued to sleep up.The door didn't have to be poked until Nanessi opened his eyes, but he just yawned a little, closed his eyes and got ready to go to bed.

■

The next day was another day off without work, so Nanessi went to bed late, and when he woke up, the first thing he saw was the familiar pillow—so he knew it was probably him holding the pillow again. Let's take a step.He rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed to see that the door was no longer in the room, and he probably got up first to go to the management room.

Probably because of the heavy rain that fell yesterday afternoon and finally ended this morning. Even though it was still summer, the air was much cooler and more comfortable than the previous few days. This made Naixi feel sleepy when she wanted to go back to sleep. But even though his head was still a little hazy, he vaguely remembered that he had something to do today. He rolled over on the bed, got up obediently, changed his clothes slowly while half asleep and half awake, and left the bedroom.

Probably because of the conversation before going to bed last night and sleeping a little late, even after changing clothes, Nanessi’s head still hasn’t returned to normal operation, until she walked out of the room and saw Potete flicking her tail to look through the pages in the living room. Newspapers, while Lan is sitting on the side and staring at the TV screen with her chin in her hand—probably because she became interested in the TV program after watching it at dinner last night, and she also turned on the TV to watch it when she got up this morning. When I got up, there were two other residents in the house.

"Good morning, Miss Potete, Miss Lan, did you two get used to sleeping well yesterday?"

Now that she saw it, even though she knew that her short hair was messy and her appearance was not neatly groomed, Nanessi still greeted her aloud instead of going directly to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth, and look in the mirror. Shun the messy hair.

"Morning. Good! Lan, I slept very well! The quilt is very soft! Very comfortable!"

This is Lan's lively answer, while Potete's answer is more casual:

"Yo~ Morning. Speaking of which, your elder brother also asked this greeting once when he saw the two of us when he woke up in the morning. If it is said that yesterday, I still don't believe that you and that handsome little brother are the same person. , but now I can’t believe it—you even have the same tone of voice when you ask this question.”

Having said that, it was probably because he had finished reading the newspaper. Potete brushed the newspaper aside casually, seemed to hesitate for a moment, but after a false cough, he asked Nanessi:

"By the way...well, I passed by the door of your room last night when I was going to the bathroom, and I overheard some conversation. Are you really planning to go back to your hometown? I thought you would insist on refusing to the end. Listen to what you said yesterday. In other words, you don't look like it doesn't matter if you leave here now."

"Ah, you heard about this matter. After all, what Brother Men said is not unreasonable. If there is no suitable reason, it would be strange if I persisted? And I said that I would go back to my hometown, but I didn't say that I would go back after I went back." Don't come back any more!"

Nanessi blinked her eyes in surprise, but she didn't mind too much—after all, she chose to talk to Lan and the attached Potete to tell the secret in the hope that he would not have something that is not easy to discuss with people who don't know the inside story. There was someone to talk to, and he didn't think it was something to hide, so he answered Potete's question straightforwardly.

"……What's the meaning?"

Surprised by Nanessi's answer, Potete asked, but Nanessi didn't answer right away—after being asked this question and remembering the most important things he needs to do now, he had already started calling home Let's go, ready to solve this matter first.

Regarding the matter of going back to study, after Nanessi made a decision and idea last night, he planned to make a quick decision—if it was delayed too late, the door would think that he had forgotten to deal with it, and he would call home first. It would be troublesome to decide the matter, so he had to deal with the matter first while there was still room for maneuver.

So thinking about it at this moment, he was not in a hurry to go to the bathroom to tidy up his grooming, so he sat down on the sofa, turned on the phone function of the BitPhone, and dialed the number at home.

'Hello──this is Qiqijia, who is it? '

Probably because she was in a good mood, her mother's voice on the phone sounded lighter than last time, and Nanessi couldn't help but smile, and replied cheerfully:

"It's me~ Mom! I talked to Brother Men last night, and I decided to go back to school! So I specially called Mom to tell you guys!"

'Huh! ?Really?But, Sijun, are you completely alright?You made a decision so suddenly, didn't you force yourself because of what someone said? '

It was probably because Nanessi spoke suddenly, and just as soon as he answered the phone, he directly stated the purpose of the call. His mother seemed unable to react for a while. With a character that is easily influenced by those around her, and would give in to other people's strong demands, she immediately asked with a little worry.

"Well, it's okay! It's not someone else's suggestion, it's my own decision! But if possible, I want to go to the school here, because there are friends I met after I came here, and I don't want to break with them Contact──Is this okay?"

In order to reassure the mother on the other side of the phone, Naixi vowed to guarantee that this sentence is not wrong in a certain way. Although it was suggested by the door, the door is originally another future self, so it is not wrong to say so. Lied──, and then he brought up the main reason why he said yesterday that he wanted to call himself, that is, to get ahead of the door and ask his parents to change schools and specify where to go.

Just like what Men said, he was probably really worried about his condition, even though originally because of his character, his parents planned to let him go to school in a local area where his parents could take care of him at any time unless he went to other places for college entrance examinations. , after he started to refuse to go to school and stayed at home, after knowing what happened in the school he originally attended, although his parents mainly persuaded him to return to the original school, it seemed that his condition was worse than they thought, worrying I also tried to talk to him about letting him transfer to a foreign school. It’s just that at the age of 14, although he didn’t realize it at that time, he was not completely unaffected by the collective termination of friendship, because that kind of The blow was somewhat depressed, and after listening to it, I just obediently said "I will think about it", and then continued to immerse myself in the world of the game to escape reality.

Just like this, I skipped school for more than half a month, and just before the parents' worries reached the critical point of explosion, the door appeared as if the timing was right, and then I should know everything after that── As a 'cousin', after talking with his parents, he successfully persuaded and comforted the parents who were already a little anxious at that time, and then brought him here from his hometown to live a life called 'recuperation'. But in the days when I was living a life of squatting at home in an upright manner, the matter of 'transferring schools' mentioned earlier naturally disappeared.

And Nanessi also thought about it, although he was very reluctant to go back to school life that lasted for several years and was full of various exams and homework, but since he was reborn to this age, he planned to return to the management room again in the future. For this job that he is familiar with and volunteers for, even if his professional level is sufficient, the corresponding academic qualifications are still necessary—after all, it is an agency affiliated to the government, and going to work there will not only be his own ability and academic qualifications, but also be rejected. One of the most important points, so going back to school is really a necessary matter that he cannot escape.Even if he no longer goes to the management office in this life, but works in other places as a programmer, no one will believe the ability of a programmer who dropped out of junior high school. It is the most straightforward letter of guarantee for newcomers before they show their talents. If it is too ugly, it will be difficult to find a good job.

And since it is necessary to go back, it is only a matter of time when Naixi wants to go back to school. If it is only for academic qualifications, it depends on what he likes. It doesn't matter where he goes to study—and in his hometown, in order not to stimulate the slender nerves of those former friends, Nanessi really doesn't plan to go back to study there, and if his plan is successfully completed, he probably won't in the future. Because someone's disappearance forces him to choose a special school, the choice of school is quite free.Therefore, in order to keep in touch with his friends here and have a more legitimate reason to stay here and continue his plan, he decided to act first before talking to his parents, and to take the initiative when he still has the right to choose. Put forward his wish to attend the school here.

'Is that so?That would be great──At first, when I heard the news about Damen Jun from my father, I was worried that it might just be a white lie.Is it a school near Lanyang Street... Okay, I got it!I'll discuss it with your dad when he comes back from work tonight. '

Hearing that Nanaixi's voice didn't seem to be fake, and she also believed that the children raised by her family would not lie to their parents, the mother's voice seemed to be relieved, and then she agreed.

Naixi was not surprised by this, his character of being able to make quick and clear decisions whenever necessary was actually cultivated by his mother who had a positive and straightforward personality, and he also believed that he really loved him The son's parents will definitely agree to his request, but even so, they still feel warm in their hearts, and they can't help but continue with a cheerful voice full of laughter:

"Thank you mom! By the way, I have forgotten a lot of things in the subjects I need to study in school, so next week I want to go back to my hometown and review the contents of the textbook. I can ask mom to help me get the information I received earlier. Put those old textbooks from the warehouse in the room?"

'Well, yes!Can I put it on the desk first? '

Hearing Nanessi's positive response, and knowing that he will not stay on Lanyang Street until they settle the matter of transferring schools, but will come back first, I feel that my mother's voice has also become very happy, not at all. Responding hesitantly, he asked at the same time.

Afterwards, the mother and son had another conversation, and talked about other trivial matters in life, and finally ended the phone call. After successfully achieving the goal, Nanessi showed a sense of joy that the plan had succeeded after hanging up the phone. With a very mischievous smile, he smiled and said to the stunned Potete:

"Well, the solution is what you heard—I will go back to my hometown for a while, and I will come back after my parents have dealt with the school affairs!"
