[Comprehensive] Arabian Nights

"Summer is over." Yue Gongdie said to herself, "Mom, I'm back, just in time for school to start."

This summer has been a little short, maybe just a little bit for her.

At the end of spring, her mother suddenly said that she had found advanced gastric cancer, but she had decided to give up treatment.

Because they have no money.

They live hard in the lower class of the city, and they do their best to survive every day, and they don't have any extra money to do other things.

No money to buy beautiful clothes, no money to eat cute cakes, no money to attend class reunions, school trips.

There used to be confusion and resentment, but all these disappeared when I saw my mother cleaning the city hard.

From childhood to adulthood, every day my mother would go out in the middle of the night to clean up the city, and then before the sun was born, she would return to their small rented house like a mouse to prepare lunch for her.

She used to feel ashamed and hated why she had to live such a life.

But now, she no longer has a mother, and this family, which was struggling to maintain a balance, was completely shattered.

Just got back her mother's ashes after cremation from the funeral bureau, Yue Gongdie needs a new urn to replace the temporary box that hit her mother's ashes.

This light and heavy weight in her hand is already her last sustenance in this world.

Yue Gongdie closed her eyes, and the image of her mother smiling at her while enduring the pain of the disease reappeared in her mind. She couldn't help holding her breath, and tears almost came out of her eyes.

"Mom, it's over, it won't hurt anymore." Yue Gongdie said softly, touched the urn in her hand, and walked into the funeral shop wearing her old but still neat dress, wanting to buy an urn Put mother's last sustenance in it.

After greeting each other politely with the clerk, Yue Gongdie started looking for the urn she liked.

My mother actually liked exquisiteness very much before she was alive, but she never showed it, because they had no money and no qualifications for exquisiteness at all.

But in the end, Yue Gongdie hopes to give her mother the best home.

She took a fancy to one of the wooden urns at a glance. The light-colored body of the box was exquisitely and smallly carved with cherry blossoms. The petals of the beautiful cherry blossoms were gradually dyed pink, and a little yellow appeared in the tenderest flower center.

What a beautiful box this is.

Moon Palace Die fell in love with this urn almost at first sight, and she had an intuition that her mother would also like this, because there was a kimono at the bottom of their box, which was said to be worn by her mother during the coming-of-age ceremony, during the hardest time of their family , mother gritted her teeth and insisted, and didn't take that kimono out.

This box looks like that kimono.

Yue Gongdie stretched out her hand, wanting to pick up the urn, but in an instant she saw the price beside the box.

20 million yen.

The price of 20 yen hurt her eyes and hurt her heart.

All the property of their family is only 23 yen left.

She still needs to go to school, she needs to live, and she still needs to pay rent.

The oppression of life made Yue Gongdie a little out of breath. She saw her fingers involuntarily turned to the box marked 3 yen next to her.

It was a very ordinary urn with nothing on it, just a piece of black paint, no cherry blossoms, and no carvings.

"That's it." Yue Gongdie heard her own nervous voice.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The clerk replied, "I will go to the warehouse to pick up the goods for you."

"Thank you."

The shop became quiet again, Yue Gongdie couldn't help but focus on that beautiful box again.

I don't know if it was fate or coincidence, but at this moment, through the glass window behind the shelf, Yue Gongdie saw two people passing by outside the window, they were a couple, the man was tall, his face was blocked by the shelf and he couldn't see clearly .

But she could see that woman clearly.

That was her half-sister.

The child of the woman who took everything from her mother.

She looks like a princess, wearing a pink dress that is as tender as a flower bud, with beautiful long brown hair, delicate makeup on her face, and candy-colored lips that look like jelly in the sun.

She walked in the sun, and she was completely different from her in the dark.

Yue Gongdie blinked, she saw the bag in the woman's child's hand.

She had seen that bag before, it was the latest product released by C's family this year, and in the class, the girl sitting next to her opened a magazine in her hand, and it happened to be the pattern of that bag.

That bag has a market value of 30 yen.

... At this moment, Yue Gongdie felt that something in her heart was broken.

Why!

Why is the world so unfair?

Even though my mother did nothing wrong, she was kicked out of that house. Why are people without morals always not punished? Why is it that the more despicable, the happier? !

In this world, is it true that only the wicked can taste the final fruits of victory?Only the shameless deserves everything?

But they can only retreat again and again because of their kindness, and finally they are driven out of their castle, struggling to live without everything.

The two of them were obviously just snuggling up to each other to keep warm in their own little corner, they just wanted to live without disturbing anyone or being disturbed by anyone!

Why does this world want to deprive even such a small wish?

Yue Gongdie saw her own reflection on the glass.

She realized that she didn't know when to cry, she blinked and saw tears dripping from her eyes.

Why teach me to love the world?

Obviously this is such a cold and cruel world!

Those two people had already walked away, and Yue Gongdie felt that something in her heart was also walking away with her.

"Miss, it's ready." The clerk's voice sounded from behind, and he said in surprise, "Ah, miss, did your hand hurt?"

"..." Yue Gongdie looked down, and found that she didn't know when her nails had pierced her palm, and the blood was sliding down drop by drop along her white fingers.

"Ah, please let go first, I'll take care of it for you." The clerk lured Yue Gongdie to a chair beside her and sat down, and immediately went to take out the medical kit, and said in a babbling voice, "Please forgive me, you hurt yourself like this, die My relatives will not feel at ease."

"Yeah." Yue Gongdie replied softly.

"Disinfection will be a bit painful." The clerk said with concern, "Please be patient, it will be fine soon."

Moon Palace Butterfly feels no pain at all.

...Maybe she's dead too.

The only one left alive was a beast named [Moon Palace Butterfly], which was devoured by hatred.

If being a human is too tiring, I don't want to be a human anymore.

Nobody cared anyway.
