Nanami's Battle Royale

Spoiler - National Letter Day

Guoxin had a dream.

The dream is very realistic, as if the reality is really a world.In the dream, there is Shiroyan School, there is the bastard Kitano, there is Shuya, and there is Nakagawa.There's graduation trips, and there's...a battle royale.

Everything seemed to be exactly the same—he thought so until his own collar blew out his throat.

The countdown on the neck ring grew more urgent.He couldn't escape, and all the friendly classmates in the past ran away screaming, and no one could save him.He finally saw his friend, and stretched out his hand in despair, as if wanting to grab the last straw.

"Qiuya!"

"Guoxin!"

At the same time as the huge roar sounded, the eyes were blood red.He felt the rain of blood falling, it was his own blood.Without the strength to support his body any longer, Guoxin fell to the ground.He didn't die immediately, and he could even feel Qiu crying on top of him.

The blood flowed more and more, and the consciousness gradually became blurred.He thought: It shouldn't be like this, he shouldn't die now.Something... something has changed.What's not there.

what is it then?

At the end of consciousness, he remembered a person.The person he should dislike the most, the person he hates the most—unknowingly, he has become the person he cares about the most.

...By the way, it's Nanami...Why isn't Nanami here...?

Then he woke up with a start.

The neck is fine and the collar is still on.He unconsciously turned his head and looked around.Qiu was also taking care of Nakagawa who had fainted from heatstroke, and Shogo Kawada, who had just been rescued by Kyouichi Motobuchi, smashed a pot of rice, smelled it, and prepared to cook.

This is an old clinic, and he is still alive, this is the reality now.

How could he have such a dream?

Guoxin scratched his slightly upturned hair, then pressed his temples hard, covering all his expressions under the shadow of his arms.He definitely felt that he hated Qihai.At first, he was nosy to prevent him from taking revenge on Kitano, and then he always blocked himself and Zhong Chuan's classmates. The withdrawn one had no friends except Zhong Chuan.It was because of Zhongchuan's gentleness that he took care of this person.He often quarreled with her, although it was always one-sided, but it was because this person didn't even respond to the quarrel that made people feel angrier.

He just hates her.I hate that she never has a surprised expression, hate that she only cares about Nakagawa, hate that she covers her mouth so close to keep herself quiet, hate that she holds herself down and shouts "Calm down!" Pulled himself behind his mouth, hated her... died before they could find her.

Even in the initial death list.

That's not right... He hasn't found the person who has been expressionless to punch her, and he hasn't told her aggressively that he shouldn't be smart enough to treat himself as a protector in the future, and he hasn't ridiculed her that if he is afraid, he will barely protect her.He hasn't said anything to her, hasn't hit her, hasn't won an argument—he hasn't... so much to say to her.

From six o'clock in the morning to now, Guoxin has not been thinking for a moment that if they hadn't met Akamatsu Yoshio at the beginning of the battle royale, if they hadn't escaped; if he had waited until Nanami... she would definitely not die, he would definitely not let her dead.She saved his life, no, even if she didn't save him, he wouldn't let her die.Even if he is afraid, but only her, only in front of her, Guoxin will never show timidity, and will never run away.No matter how brave he is, he will never let himself fall into a disadvantage in front of her.

But the more I assumed this way, the more I thought about possible better results, the heavier my heart became, and I was so sad that I couldn't breathe, as if I had lost something that I had been ignoring, but it was very important.Guoxin thought that everything would return to normal when he woke up, and forgetting her was like forgetting those classmates who had died.But I didn't expect it to be like this even in a dream.

Why was it when she died...?So uncomfortable, so heavy, so...hateful.

Hate Kitano, hate battle royale, hate this government and this world... What I hate the most is the person who killed her.

Guoxin's usually pure eyes were stained with darkness, he clenched his fists, and buried his whole face in the darkness.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally picked up his backpack.

"Shuya" he said in a low voice, "I still...I want to find Nanami"

Qiu Ye, who was suddenly called out, was really stunned for a while, and repeated in a daze, "... Qihai?" It took him a while to realize, "Qihai is not..."

His unfinished words were abruptly interrupted.

"Even so, I want to look for it!!" Guoxin yelled as if his nerves had been stung.Qiu Ye's eyes widened, looking at him in disbelief.Facing Qiu Ye's expression, Guoxin turned his head a little off guard and calmed down, but his fists were clenched tightly.

"Although I don't know who killed her..." Guoxin's voice was low and dark, unlike the cheerful voice in the past, dark and even ominous.He said firmly, "I will definitely avenge her."

Qiu Ye was momentarily at a loss for words.Even after living together in the orphanage for three years, he had never heard Guoxin's tone so fierce.Finally, Qiu also remembered something, and he asked, "What about Nakagawa?"

Guoxin seemed to have just remembered Zhong Chuan, and subconsciously looked at the person who was still sleeping on the bed, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, then he gradually became firm, looked straight into Qiu Ye's eyes, and said solemnly, "Naka ​​Chuan will be counting on you." "

Guoxin is not tall, and even his face is cute, but his expression is so serious that Qiu can't help but nod his head.Seeing Qiu Ye nodding his head in agreement, Guoxin finally smiled, but the smile was obviously not lighthearted.He hugged Qiu Ye tightly.

"You and Nakagawa must work hard...to live well"

His tone was heavy with emotion that he didn't know. Guoxin knew that he might never see them again.Death doesn't seem to be scary anymore, he died once in that dream without her, but even so, even knowing it, there are things he wants to do no matter what.

For him now, this is the only thing he wants to do and must do.

To avenge the girl he has always hated and opposed.

In the end, without waiting for Qiuya's reaction, Guoxin quickly grabbed his backpack and ran out the door.

Kawata, who watched from beginning to end, was smoking a cigarette, and asked Nanahara Akiya nonchalantly, "Qami... is he someone he likes?"

"No..." Qi Yuanqiu was stunned for a moment and retorted subconsciously, but then he was not sure.He shook his head, not knowing who he was convincing, "They... don't know why, but Guoxin has always hated Qihaisang. Guoxin himself said that he likes Zhongchuan."

"I've always cared about it, maybe I don't know when I will gradually fall in love with it." I don't know who I thought of, Kawata was slightly distracted.When he came back to his senses, he had his own smile, "Does that kid really know who he likes? Maybe you didn't care... But when he was in the classroom, his eyes were always on the Qihai he hated, and not...she"

Kawata gestured to Nakagawa with his chin.Kawada clearly remembered that when he was in the classroom, Qi Hai unexpectedly asked him to confirm the information, and when they exchanged less than a few words, there were several eyes following him, including Guoxin.That kind of pure and undisguised embarrassment and hostility is the unspeakable deep and shallow thoughts that belong to the young man alone.

It’s just how long it’s been... Kawata took a deep breath, looking at the photos in his wallet—the girl he loved so much was in the photo, and she was also buried in the battle royale three years ago...

Seven Principles gradually became astonished in Kawada's words, and then seemed to know something unbelievable for a moment.He rushed out the door, but there was no one to be seen at the door.

Guoxin likes Qihai, what he likes is actually Qihai...
