Salvation equals death

"...So, the coach disappeared for so long, did he make his debut?"

Kise Ryota looked at the image on the big screen in downtown Tokyo speechlessly. The silver-haired girl in a white dress who looked like an angel was standing next to the blond man dressed as a devil. She obviously sang crazy music like heavy metal rock, but The power of the girl's soft voice bursting out in an instant was no less than that of the blond man.

"Awesome, coach, you are not overwhelmed by Buposhang at all, but when did you become so familiar with Buposhang? Obviously I came first!" Huang Lai said whether to cry or not, although he My career is a model and my career is a singer, but because the two have similar styles of painting, it is inevitable that fans will often compare them. Seeing the coach cooperate with his opponent, I really feel uncomfortable.

"It's just a cooperative relationship. I'll kick him after the release of this new song." Vera typed on her laptop without looking up. The company insisted that she and Buposhang form a "Sun and Moon" group. Although she was the one who stole Buposhang's popularity, Buposhang was also very satisfied with her singing skills, which was mutually beneficial.

Vera herself is very professional and ethical, not to mention other things, she is really talented in composing music, even if they are at odds, they should still be able to get along well.

The premise is that Vera has not met a girl who yelled "Elf princess, are you an elf princess" when they met for the first time, and who was so considerate and thoughtful to herself, and who happened to be a girl who was not broken by the scum—this name was "Mogami Kyoko" The girl in the house has now been successfully promoted to be Vera's best friend, fulfilling Vera's last wish of "having more than two best friends".

So, why do blondes and silver hairs have to make a combination of the sun and the moon?Isn't Alice still cute?Well, but who is Alice?

"All in all." Vera closed the laptop and said deeply, "Because I have already won the first place in the country in kendo, so I am going to change my target and continue to learn."

This answer was too much to say. Qingfeng didn't dare to complain because of her all-time obscene power, so she could only cover her mouth and let out an unpleasant chichi sound. On the contrary, Huang Lai probably didn't hold back her mouth, and her face was full of black lines. Blunted: "Coach, you think you are playing a simulation O student to brush up your achievements in life!"

Damn, this unlucky kid is talking nonsense.

Vera was not angry, she held her head and said calmly: "You are right, so I am going to fight for this year's Naoki Award and Akutagawa Award."

Generation of Miracles: "...Are you serious?!"

Vera is not joking either, she has indeed worked hard to fulfill her "last wish". The wishes she collected are all the "things that others want to achieve most in their life", but in fact she doesn't have much to do after many things are completed. On the contrary, the feeling of emptiness deepened a bit, so she thought, maybe she didn't do enough.

Thinking of this, Vera couldn't help putting in 12 points of energy, keeping her feet on the ground, coughing up blood while writing lyrics and composing music in the middle of the night, and the Miracle Generation who thought she was just joking found out half a year later that she had really achieved After winning the Naoki Award and the title of the monthly single sales champion, they all lost their voices by coincidence.

The Generation of Miracles, who had already begun to feel a little lazy, resumed training silently.

#Coach motivates my studies. #

Akashi Seijuro, who has always been better than his peers, bought his own coach's album "Gravekeeper" and the book "The Cat Who Calls at the Port" with an attitude of appreciation and learning, and he has been in a life of doubt for a long time in the state.He suspects that the little coach is a patient with split personality just like himself, and he may even have been in the gangsters. Maybe the highest achievement of reaching the top of Mafia is in the life achievement column. Otherwise, how can normal people write the life of the mafia so realistically?Even if it is described from the perspective of a cat?

But speaking of this character who took pleasure in suicide and finally made the protagonist an eternal tomb keeper...why does it sound so similar to the writer Dazai Osamu?

Vera once became a myth in the college, but this didn't stop her body from getting worse day by day.

Coughing up blood and physical weakness are just trivial things, what is even more frightening is that her five senses are gradually disappearing.

During an appointment with Qi Mu Lizi at a dessert shop, when Vera found that she couldn't taste the taste, she smiled and pushed the dessert to Lizi, thinking calmly that time was running out.At first it was the sense of taste, then slowly the sense of smell, hearing, vision... When the sense of touch completely disappeared, she would completely become a cripple who could not perceive the outside world.

The candle of the soul has burned to the end, and it is time for her to find a grave for herself.

The best cemetery is in a quiet and pleasant place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It doesn't need to be too lively, but it shouldn't be too desolate either.A populated town is the best, and she hopes to be buried in a high place, where she can overlook the whole town from top to bottom, see the setting sun every morning and evening, and hear the sound of the wind blowing the whole world. Even the soil smells fresh and moist.

She thinks that the small town that Natsume loves is very good, and it sounds like a very gentle place.

"What are you looking at?" Akashi, who had finished his training, stopped in front of her with a scarf on, looking at the travel brochure she was flipping through in her hand, "Are you ready for a graduation trip?"

"No." Vera smiled, raised the booklet in her hand, and showed the young man in front of her the green rice fields on the cover, "I'm thinking about where I will live in the future."

The girl's answer is always unexpected, but Akashi has become accustomed to it. He sat down beside her, took the booklet in her hand, looked at the charming town scenery like a watercolor painting on it, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said sharply: "This This kind of place is suitable for the elderly, and young people tend to lose their spirits and gradually lose their self-motivation after living for a long time."

After finishing speaking, the young man seemed to be trying his best to moderate his tone, but the words he blurted out were still somewhat commanding: "You are excellent, and there is still room for improvement in the future. The bustling Kyoto will be more suitable for you, Luoshan The university is ranked first in the comprehensive ranking, I think with your grades, it is more than enough to be admitted to Luoshan, although I don't understand why you choose an unknown PK private school, but if you transfer, I can help you."

The boy's words were extremely blunt, but Vera laughed so hard that tears were about to come out, she said cheerfully: "Akashi is preparing to test Luoshan?"

The boy glanced at her, and said solemnly: "Yes."

"When you are in the first year of high school, I will be ready to graduate in the third year of high school. Are you so reluctant to part with the coach?" She smiled and unscrewed the bottle cap of the energy drink and handed it to him.

"No." The young man's expression was reserved and indifferent, refusing to admit this hypocritical statement, "You are excellent, and I need the assistance of excellent people, and I will definitely win more victories in the future. Go to the new The convenient location means a new beginning, and although I have the confidence to do my best again, I think my cooperation with you can continue.”

Facing the young man's determination to "follow me and have meat to eat", Vera was overjoyed. She didn't say yes or no, but just stood up and stretched.The girl stretched her body and stretched her limbs, making her waist look extraordinarily slender. The boy subconsciously looked away, but felt something suddenly buckled on top of his head.

"Send your graduation gift in advance~!" Vera said with a smile, "I made it myself, whether you like it or hate it, please accept it gratefully, otherwise the coach will be angry. I know Now you don't like others to disobey you, but let's make a final compromise and let me be happy before I leave."

Akashi didn't understand her subtext, just raised his hand and took off the hat that was on his head, staring quietly for a long time...

"...Thank you, but who is this uncle?"

"Well, he is a very great hero."

Vera tried to imitate the expression of the Q version of the character on the hat, but failed in the end and laughed out loud. Her eyes were very gentle, as if the magnificent setting sun at dusk was fixed in her eyes: "I don't remember his name. , but he taught me a lot, he told me - "The more anxious you are, the more you have to smile", the smile can convey happiness and hope to everyone, and the person who can become the pillar of others is the one A real strong man, I think he makes a lot of sense."

"Akashi, those who always win are strong, but those who can afford to lose are truly brave."

"Gentleness has never been weak, but the quality that should not be let down in this world. Whether you were before or you are now, you are essentially a gentle child."

"So, don't forget your original intention."

After the girl finished speaking, she waved to Akashi, and walked out of the basketball court with her backpack in her hand: "The last game of junior high school, enjoy the fun of playing basketball."

Akashi watched her walk into the bright sunshine, even though he didn't care about her words, he still couldn't help recalling the mood when he played basketball for the first time.The memory of his first exposure to basketball came from his mother, who was the gentlest and safest haven, and basketball to him was the only fun that could relieve stress under the strict teaching of his father.

When did it change?He doesn't know either.But his second personality is born for victory, once he fails, he will lose the meaning of existence.

Whether it's Kuroko or Generation of Miracles, everyone prefers the gentle and polite No.1 character.

This is the first time someone told him that his cold machine, which only knows victory, is also "gentle" in nature-it was only in order to be able to continue playing basketball with everyone that he woke up.

Akashi lowered his head, looked at the peaked cap embroidered with the devilish smile of a muscular man in Q version, with a cold face, thinking to himself, it's so ugly.

He thought about how he would face a broader stage and more difficult challenges after entering Luoshan.

But he never thought that this was the last time he saw this little instructor who was always smiling, as if wind and rain couldn't break her in the slightest.

——He never thought that she, who was born as bright as a summer flower, would really sleep in such a place in the end.

……

The old iron train made a "rumbling" sound, and the sound of the rails rubbing against the station was a little uncomfortable, but soon, this impetuous mood was blown away by the oncoming wind.

Walking out of the platform, you can see endless forests, flat rice fields, quiet trails, and the dark blue sky that looks like a blur of oil paint, and white clouds that form snowflakes.Red torii shrines evoke the ringing of majestic bells, babbling brooks and rivers dappled in sunlight.

Living in such a gentle place, it is destined that the people here are also gentle.

Pedestrians on the street walk slowly, with soothing expressions. Even if they don't smile, their eyebrows and eyes are always peaceful.

Vera held Shuzhuwan's hand and quietly looked at the pleasant scenery in front of her. After a long while, she slowly let out a mouthful of foul air, coughed softly, and wiped away the blood on the corners of her lips with a handkerchief. But trembling because of the force, faintly tingling veins: "Are we there yet?"

Shu Zhuwan was silent, he bent down and picked up the thickly dressed girl, in the posture of holding a child, as if he was holding a sick kitten, and walked slowly towards the field path.

"I don't want to see Uncle Zi and Natsume." The girl buried her face on his shoulder, shaking her feet in a daze, and said, "Brother Hengci, have you bought the house? And my graveyard."

"En." Shuzhuwan responded gently, and he raised his eyes slightly, his golden eyes shone with delicate soft light, "How about buying a courtyard on the mountain and planting white roses in it?"

The girl in the arms lowered her head and breathed with some difficulty, but she still replied obediently: "Okay, thank you Brother Hengci."

"Is there any unfulfilled wish?" He held her in both hands, he could only lower his head, and put his face lightly on her forehead.

"I can't remember..." She said sullenly, as if she contained infinite grievances, regretful and at a loss, "I really can't remember..."

The fire of her soul has long been burned out, and what has supported her to survive until now is nothing but a ray of obsession.

"Sure enough, I'm still not reconciled..."

Her sigh was carried away by the wind, and finally fell into the ears of one person. The pink-haired boy appeared out of nowhere above the small town, and landed on the ground lightly like a bird.

He stretched out his hand expressionlessly, and grabbed the shimenawa rope that was invisible to others in the void but did exist.
