Conan's Dark Night Festival

I have spoken, and there are times when the century-old iceberg is helpless, "Why am I here? I have the habit of staying in the classroom after school. If I am not here, where am I?"

"Speaking of which, are you sleepy, big detective?"

...Shiho is here, talking about what I just said in my sleep!

Stupid, she must have heard it!The conclusion immediately drawn in my mind made my face heat up. "That...that, that Shiho." I turned my face away uncomfortably, and stammered to combine the words, "Just...just..."

"What happened just now?" She flipped through the magazine in her hand and responded indifferently.

"Just now..." As if I had made a lot of determination, I said it in one breath, "What I said in a dream just now! Can you pretend that you didn't hear anything?!"

"Huh?" Miyano Shiho put down the magazine and touched my forehead with his left hand, "Do you have a fever? How can you pretend that those words are not..."

Seemingly because she sensed that my body temperature was wrong, her words suddenly stopped, and her tone was still light, "Zheyu-jun, you really have a fever, it's so hot."

...Hehe, you are wrong, it is not because of a fever that it is so hot.

I patted her hand off, "I don't have a fever."

"Oh? Really." Hearing what I said, Miyano Shiho showed a look of nothing to do with him, and still said in that light tone, "It's best if you don't have anything to do, save me from dragging you, a huge monster, to the infirmary again .”

"Hey..." The woman's mouth is still so unpleasant, I glanced at Miyano Shiho who was reading a magazine seriously at this time.However, did she hear the previous sentence that appeared in the dream just now?If you really heard it, it would be embarrassing.

I stared straight at her for a long while, and suddenly found an imperceptible blush on Miyano Shiho's cheeks, and sighed in surprise, "Really, you will blush too."

"Stupid... idiot! Why are you staring at me all the time!" Miyano Shiho yelled at me angrily.

"See if you've acted strangely because of what I just said in my sleep!" I squinted my eyes, and poked Miyano Shiho's cheek, which was almost punctured with a finger, "Sure enough! What did you hear!"

"That's because you've been staring at me, okay..." Her beautiful icy blue eyes turned into the shape of a half moon.

"Oh? Really?" I also pretended to pack my backpack calmly, stood up and imitated her appearance and said, "That's the best. I'm leaving first, and it's time for school to be over. You should go back early, being molested Don’t ask me for help if the uncle is molesting you.”

"...childish," just before I stepped out of the classroom, I heard her snort softly, "who would ask for help from a pig like you."

Ah, this woman with a poisonous tongue... Forget it, adults don't remember villains.I'd better find Xia Chuan and go back together.

......

In the evening, the last piece of blue in the sky was swallowed up by the red clouds, and the breeze mixed with the elegant fragrance of flowers blew across the lake on the bank of the embankment, causing circles of ripples.Xia Chuan, who was walking ahead, stopped suddenly, which made me feel strange.

"Xia Chuan?" I called softly.

"Hey, Xi Ye?" She turned around, and the tone of the syllable was too gentle, "Am I so insignificant to you?"

"Eh?" I was stunned, and then smiled awkwardly, "How come. What's wrong with you?"

"You like Miyano Shiho, right?" She didn't answer my question, but continued to smile gently and asked like this.

"Like... Miyano Shiho? Natsukawa, are you thinking..."

Before she could finish her words, she interrupted abruptly, "I know. Because I've been looking at you all the time, I know."

——"When I go out with me every morning, I go to the convenience store to buy canned milk. Then force it into Miyano Shiho's hand, and say domineeringly, 'Don't drink coffee, it's not good for your health. Also, If you don’t drink it, then the friendship between us will come to an end.” When I watched her drink the milk, I could see the curvature of the corner of your mouth, so gorgeous that even the sun would be ashamed.”

——"That day, the day I didn't go back with you. I saw it from the window of the chemistry research classroom. I saw Miyano who hadn't come out in the teaching building because it was raining without an umbrella. You handed her the umbrella. When she refused, I think you probably said something like this. 'Xia Chuan also has an umbrella, I can go back with her.' Or, 'Anyway, I haven't planned to leave so early, I'll be back when the rain stops. You go first' or something."

"Then, it is your freedom to like Miyano Shiho, and I have no right to interfere at all." She watched my eyes gradually fill with tears, but still stubbornly refused to drip, "But ah, that night I After holding you and crying bitterly, I thought... I thought Xiye would definitely come to ask."

"What happened to you that day, why did you cry so sadly?" A gust of wind blew the tears from her eyes, and the girl in front of her struggled to smile, "But... everything is what I thought. What are you talking about?" I didn't even ask, and I was still heartless all day long. It's as if that incident never happened."

"So... I want to ask..."

"I want to ask, am I so insignificant in your eyes? Right." I took her words like this, took a step forward, leaned forward, hugged her tightly, and felt her body Freeze, "Are you an idiot?"

"Eh?"

"I didn't ask because you didn't seem to want to talk about it. Baga..." The curly chestnut hair of her shawl exudes a faint smell of lavender. It doesn't matter if you like Shiho or something."

So, can I ask you not to smile so ugly?

——So, can I ask you not to smile so ugly...

Always cry because of me, I will die of guilt.

"Cry out," I hugged her tighter, hoping to give her some sense of security, "No one will call you a crybaby..."

——"If you want to cry, just cry loudly. No one has ever said that you can't cry."

No one can limit your behavior, let alone deprive you of the right to grieve.

"Cry out, Xia Chuan."

I first heard her whimpering softly, and then crying like a torrential rain. Her eyes were buried in my arrowhead, and it was wet in an instant.

In her cry, I heard loneliness, that kind of incomparable loneliness.

Probably because I was afraid that I would no longer be needed by others.

Really a hopeless idiot...

【Chapter58】Miyano Shiho's Diary (1)

[1]

If there are really coincidences in this world, then I hope... such a coincidence is not true...

Appeared, looks like.The boy who used to shine brightly in my life, the boy who laughed even the sun was ashamed, the boy who gave me warmth when I was afraid.Then he told me: "Zheyu Xiye, my name."

Then he said, "Well... what about you? What's your name?"

At that time, I was silent for a long time.It's so funny to think about it now, but at that time I was silent on the surface, but countless sorrows flashed in my heart.Obviously it's just a stranger whom I haven't known for long, it's not him, isn't it?

Yeah, it's not him—

Zheyu Xiye, Kudo Xiye.

Same name, similar looks, same smile, but not him.

This boy is just like the boy back then, still without any hesitation and without rejection of my self-isolation, without any scruples without disgust, and without stinginess, he said to me: "Hey, don't be so uncute."

——"I don't mind sitting together. Sitting alone in this seat where there are no people at the front and back tables, it's very lonely."

Such a coincidence coincides with many aspects, but why is it not him? Why does this young man's warm blue eyes, which are clearly biased toward warmer tones... show a stagnant desolation.

What to do, I really hope he is him...

What to do... I really hope that such a coincidence is not true...

Hey, Miyano Shiho—

You are right?Seeing that guy with a hippie smile all day fainted at the door of the classroom, how could you stop because he didn't tease you like he usually does with a smirk?

You should pretend you didn't see anything and walk away indifferently, right?You shouldn't have lifted him up to the hospital, who was heavy for you, right?You should have sent him to the hospital and left as if it didn't matter to you, instead of asking the doctor if he was okay before getting an answer, right?

yeah, i should do that...

Because I am a cold-blooded animal in the mouth of the students in the class.

No cold-blooded animal would do such a stupid thing.

Perhaps, as a cold-blooded animal, I can step on him who fainted.

Then he said indifferently, "I stepped on you and dirty my shoes"?

However, I can't control it——

I can't control it, what should I do——

He looks so different from what I imagined him to be when he grows up
