Ema's younger brother

Hinata Moto doesn't like school.

For him, school is the teacher's disgust, the classmates' rejection, the greedy gazes of countless monsters, and... the grades that are always at the bottom.

Yes, in the eyes of others, Hinata Chen, who has supernatural powers and sounds so awesome, is a bad boy—a bad boy who is much worse than Asahina Yusuke.

Therefore, in order to prevent Ema from being blamed by others, Hinata Chen always went to the school alone, and never talked to Ema in school, and even insisted on his relationship with Ema when others asked him I and Ema are strangers.

"Let's go separately next?"

After getting off the tram, Hyuga Motomo broke free from Ema's hand, his head drooped slightly, and his tone returned to his usual concealed indifference.

"Why?" Ema clenched her fists, nails sinking into the soft skin, "Is Chen still unwilling to go to school with me? I don't care about other people's comments. I was not strong enough before, but now it's different .”

"Chen, I want to protect you."

Every word she said was extremely solemn, and her eyes that were crystal clear under the sun were full of determination—like a believer who was walking towards the Holy Land step by step, her piety was shockingly pious.

But I don't need your protection.

The words that almost blurted out were swallowed by Hinata Chen, he stared at Ema's beautiful and clean face, and fell into silence.

The scene was deadlocked for a while.

Yusuke, who was standing next to the two of them, looked at the expressions of the two of them, and scratched his red hair like flames: "Ahaha, if you don't leave, you will be late... What can we talk about while walking?"

After he finished speaking, he took the lead to drag away Hinata Chen who was as stubborn as a cow, and then lowered his voice and whispered in his ear: "I said, why are you so stubborn, you won't die if you walk together."

"Hmph." Hinata, who had no idea what he was insisting on, turned his head and snorted softly, his dark red eyes narrowed slightly, "How could Yusuke, an idiot who dare not even confess, know what I'm stubborn about."

"You, you, you know me, me, me—" Yusuke, who was stuttering, carefully glanced behind Ema who was frowning slightly, and heaved a sigh of relief after making sure she didn't hear Chen's words, "Don't tell your sister! "

He threatened Hinata Chen viciously.

The threatened boy Hyuga tilted his head calmly: "It depends on your mood."

Yusuke: ...

"Chen and Yusuke-kun already have their own little secret?" Ema trotted a few steps and walked side by side with them, with obvious gloom in her slightly curved eyes.She took Chen's left hand as if nothing had happened, and squeezed away Yusuke who was beside her.

Hyuga Chen's eyes dimmed for a moment, and then quickly returned to normal. He bit his lower lip hesitantly, and finally decided to explain to Ema: "I'm sorry... I'm afraid that others will exclude you because of me, after all My popularity in school is very poor, and I have fought with others, if they seek revenge on you, I will not be able to protect you well."

He looked serious, his eyes softened unconsciously, like a little beast whose heart had been unloaded, finally willing to reveal his softest part.

"It's okay!" After hearing these words, Ema hurriedly expressed her determination, "I believe that my friends will not alienate me because of you, and they will not be indifferent to other people's bullying me, and even if it is true What's the matter...ah, and Yusuke-kun!"

Ema looked at Yusuke with eyes full of expectation, and the strength in her hands increased a little unconsciously because of nervousness.

Hinata Chen frowned slightly uncomfortable, but did not remind Ema to relax.

Yusuke, who was stared at by the goddess in his heart with such pitiful eyes, nodded without hesitation: "Don't worry, Chen, I will beat back anyone who dares to trouble Ema. of!"

It turns out... Before I knew it, someone was already protecting my sister so sincerely?

Ryu Xiangchen's heart suddenly throbbed, he pretended to be happy and raised the corners of his lips to show a gentle smile, but his soul was empty and panicked as if he had fallen into an abyss, and some kind of warm light dissipated little by little .

——The rest of the journey was completed in a harmonious atmosphere with Hinata Chen's unexpected cooperation.

——Ema and Yusuke think so.

However, in fact...

I'm probably a very strange person.

Hinata Chen obediently followed Ema, ridicule and disgust flashed in his dark red eyes.

Every time I unconsciously guard against and hurt people who want to get close to me, even if I was still smiling at one second, I would feel disgusted and irritable and want to escape the next second... Obviously I have decided to get along well, but when we meet Suddenly erected an insurmountable barrier.

——Hinata Ash's emotions are pathological.

Extreme lack of love, extreme longing for warmth, but also suspicious.

Why are you being nice to me?

If you treat me well now, you will definitely leave in the future, right?

Most definitely.

So absolutely can not deliver the real feelings.

——If you invest in feelings, you will definitely not receive the same return, and you will definitely be betrayed in the end.

Hyugachen's world has always been nothing but disgust, fear and rejection. He grew up in the sky full of malice. He thought that he would become invincible. He thought that no one could easily hurt him. He thought that his world could only be With Bei Dao holding this fetter, he thought...

——All his self-righteousness was shattered by the fact that Bei Dao Zhi left.

Suddenly lost the only spiritual support.

From then on, he had to face the hideous ghosts and monsters alone, he had to face up to the world that he had always regarded as an enemy, and he had to force himself to open his heart to accept a new tenant——All of Hyuga Chen’s strength was built on one person He can become invincible for this person, and he will collapse and despair because of this person's departure.

This is... the way of life of a human named Hinata Chen.

——Live for one person.

So after Bei Dao Zhi left, the collapsed Hinata Chen cut his wrist without hesitation, and did not use any things Bei Dao Zhi had prepared for him that could instantly heal his injuries.

——Why are you still alive?

— After losing the reason for living.

His world is bleak, he can't see his future, he can't find the courage to support him through the thorns... So, why should he live?

——"Don't be afraid, sister will protect you."

The weak girl hugged him firmly and bravely in the ward filled with the smell of disinfectant, stopped the ugly and greedy spirit covered in maggots, and pulled him out of the abyss of fear.

——"You are just too worried."

The eldest man with purple hair and brown eyes quietly walked to him when he had another emotional breakdown, his eyes were bent and he showed a soft and warm smile like a spring breeze. He said that all the brothers of Asahina's family would become a barrier to protect him.

——"Welcome to Asahina's house."

The handsome monk in purple cassock poked his head lightly, blinking his beautiful eyes with a gentle look.

……

Fragments of light permeate the world, dispelling the despairing darkness inch by inch—the world dotted with light slowly reveals a dreamlike and intoxicating beauty.

It was as if the gauze in front of him was finally lifted, so he could finally see the kindness expressed by others.

but……

why?

Why do you want to be nice to me?

Hinata Chen didn't understand these good intentions, couldn't understand them, and couldn't even believe them, so he began to question, struggle, and guard against, but he couldn't avoid becoming obsessed.

——"Master, it would be fine if I hadn't been born...It's obviously such a painful thing to live."

"Ah, ah, will my idiot apprentice also think about such profound questions?" Hearing these words, Bei Dao shook his head with a smile, and then put on a very serious expression, "Xiaochen, Master now wants to tell you the most important thing."

"most important thing?"

"Yeah." The monk who is always carefree at this moment frowned softly, "You have to remember that this world created you not to make you die of pain and despair...but to tell you that there will always be someone who is gentle Treating you, there will always be someone who treats you like life, there will always be scenery to make you stop, and there will always be sunshine for you."

——Chen, this world never let you be born because you hurt you, it loves you seriously.

——it wants you to understand that there is always someone waiting for you to come home through the storm.
