Pipa line

At noon that day, Weiming climbed up to the top of the building with a CD and Walkman borrowed from Yuesen, intending to take a lunch break to listen to the music on the CD.At noon, everyone usually stays in the classroom to eat homemade bento or go to the canteen to buy bread and drinks to satisfy their hunger. Few people go to the rooftop.But when Weiming pushed open the heavy iron gate, he was surprised to find that there were already people on the rooftop.

A listless figure was turning his back on her, leaning on the railing and staring at the sky above his head.

"—Senior Huoyuan,"

Weiming called out hesitantly.

The figure moved and turned around.Hirohara waved at her feebly, "Ah, Koyanagi."

It's really Senior Huoyuan, but why is he listless like this?

It's not easy to pretend not to see it in this situation, Weiming pursed her lips and walked over, "Senior Huoyuan... what's wrong with you?"

"Ah, it's nothing." Huoyuan lowered his head: "I'm just recalling some things when I first learned the trumpet."

"..." Weiming knew that it was best not to say anything at this time.

"When I was in elementary school, I was actually on the school's track and field team. And just like Tsuchiura, I was the main force in the team." Huohara smiled at her reluctantly: "So when I learned that I was going to quit the track and field team, The teacher who instructed me severely scolded me."

"..."

"That was really a long time ago. Once after training, I ran to the school's grove to rest, and then I heard the seniors of the school's guard of honor playing the trumpet. At that time, it was almost like being possessed Yes, I go to eavesdrop on seniors' practice every day, and I never thought about whether such behavior would be annoying."

"..."

"Later, that senior was probably moved by me, but it might also be because she had had enough of me. She borrowed a trumpet from the guard of honor and told me to try playing it. "

"That was the first time I touched a trumpet."

"You should be able to guess what happened later. I retired from the school's track and field team. Although I was severely scolded by the teacher, I still insisted on joining the school's guard of honor and learning the trumpet, and I have persisted until now. He lowered his eyes: "I really really like the trumpet."

"..."

"But now, I feel so at a loss." Huoyuan looked at his hands: "I almost forgot the reason why I first learned the trumpet, and I almost forgot that I just liked the trumpet in the first place." That kind of mood, it’s scary, isn’t it? I almost... lost the qualification and courage to go on.”

"..."

"Actually, for people like us, the scariest thing is that we can no longer continue to study and play our favorite musical instruments?" Huoyuan raised his head and looked at the sky: "The third selection competition When Hino had such an accident, she must be very sad, right? Since that day, I don’t seem to have seen her touch her violin again.”

"……"is that so?

"Obviously I used to come to school early and then go to practice the piano. I used to be able to find her in a certain piano room during my lunch break. I used to practice for a long time before leaving after school... But now it's gone. Hino must feel so uncomfortable."

……is that so?Hino-senpai's heart...is it so uncomfortable?

"Ah, I'm sorry for making you hear so many nonsense words." Huoyuan managed to pull himself together: "If you've heard those words, forget them, and don't take them to heart. I hope they won't cause you any trouble. That's good."

"No, that's nothing."

The two stopped talking.

After blowing the wind on the roof for a while, Huoyuan raised his hand to look at his watch: "Ah, Xiao Liu, I have something else to do, so I'll go back first. You just have to forget what happened just now."

"Senior Huoyuan," Weiming said suddenly, "Perhaps I should thank you."

"Eh? Why?"

"Because—" the black-haired girl raised an index finger to her lips and made a silent gesture: "Don't say it."

"--what?"

Time and space go back a little, and the scene returns to the teak house before school this morning.

The big Japanese-style house was very quiet, so quiet that only the occasional croaking of frogs could be heard.

"...Study abroad?" Yuki Azuma was startled for a moment, "Why... all of a sudden..."

"Actually, I have been thinking about sending you to study in England a long time ago." The teak old lady knelt by the small table, her waist straightened.She said in an irresistible tone: "If you want to shoulder the important task of assisting the teak family's business in the future, the background of returning from overseas will add a lot to you. So, before going to university, you should go to the high school over there as soon as possible Let's get used to the environment."

"But," Yuki raised his head anxiously, "the school music competition hasn't—"

"Don't talk back! Azuma!" Interrupting Yumu Azuma's words forcefully, the old lady Yumu's sharp eyes slammed on Yuki Azuma's face like a whip: "To put it bluntly, music can only be a hobby after all, right? .Don't forget what you promised me back then!"

"..."

"All in all, although there are still some complicated procedures to go through if you want to catch up with the new semester over there, we will take care of them for you." The old lady teak stood up, announcing that this one-sided conversation ended here End: "You pack your things and get ready to go as soon as possible."

"..."

Teak lowered his eyes, and clenched his hands on his knees.

Getting off his family's car, Azuma Yuzuki walked silently on the way to the music department.It was rare today that there were no members of the teak guards who followed him step by step, so he took off the disguise of a smile, and there was a cold chill in his eyes.

Again.

Again.

He, Azuma Yuzuki, will always be the son of the Yuki family first, then the younger brother of the older brothers, and finally himself.His fate has never been controlled by himself.

"Yuesen, good morning." A familiar voice came, he raised his head, and quickly fixed his eyes on the girl not far in front of him.

"Well, good morning." Yuesen nodded to the black-haired girl who was chasing him, "Wei Ming."

Teak's pupils constricted for a while.

Unnamed?

Since when?

"I've already listened to one of the CDs you borrowed from me. It's very good~" The girl's expression was very lively, she raised her head and smiled at Yuesen, her big black eyes narrowed into crescent moons: "Thank you recommended~”

I don't know if it's his illusion, but Yuesen's expression seems to be much softer than when he was facing others: "It's just as long as you like it. Don't rush to return it to me. You can come to my house to pick it after listening."

"はい~"

CD?Again?The Yuesen family?

When did these two become so close?

Yuesenlian...

Teak slowly narrowed his eyes.

He is in a bad mood now.

So, better not be what he thinks.

——————————————————————————————————————

During the lunch break, Yuesen was practicing in the piano room.In the middle of the practice, the door of the piano room was knocked twice, and it was pushed open before he could respond.Tsukimori raised his eyes and saw Azuma Yuzuki, who was always smiling but expressionless at this moment, was standing there, looking at him silently.

"Yuesen-kun." Teak closed the door behind him: "Are you free? Let's talk."

It can only be said that Azuma Teak really deserves to be a member of the Teak family, and he has imitated [-]% of the old lady Teak's irresistible demeanor and tone.Yue Senlian then put down the violin on her shoulders, put the violin back into the case and locked it after thinking about it, turned around and met Teak's persuasive gaze: "What's the matter? Senior Teak."

"Since everyone is smart, then I'll cut to the chase." Yuki stared straight into Yuesenlian's eyes: "I want to talk to you about Liu Weiming."

"Yuesenlian, do you like Liu Weiming?"

"..." Yue Sen was silent.

"Yue Senlian," Teak's voice was icy cold, and he said every word: "Answer, I'm asking you something."

The atmosphere was frighteningly oppressive.

"...Yes." Yue Sen clenched his fists, his voice was not loud, but he was unusually firm: "Yes."

This kind of answer, which was obviously obtained after careful thinking, made Yuki more angry than the reckless answer that came out of his mouth, and his face was even more frosty: "Really?"

"Yes."

"Oh, that's really a coincidence." The tone was obviously a chuckle, but there was no smile in Teak's eyes: "I like her too, what should I do?"

"..."

"..."

The piano room was terribly quiet, and the two stared at each other unwillingly to be outdone, like two mature lions preparing to fight for territory, confronting each other refusing to give in.

And the usual confrontation results in either your death or my death.

After a while, Yuesen's voice sounded faintly.

"...Senior, what do you mean by saying this to me?"

"What do I mean, don't you know?" Teak raised the corner of his lips: "I don't believe it, Yuesen."

"..." Yuesen didn't speak.

"What's the matter? You don't think I'm the usual me?" Teak chuckled a few times, but the false smile quickly disappeared: "If I say this is the real me, how will you treat it?"

"..." Yue Sen opened his mouth.

"Yuesenlian." Yuki Azuma folded his arms around his chest: "I advise you, it's best to give up as soon as possible."

"...Impossible." Yue Sen, who had been silent for a long time, finally said.

"Oh?" Yuki Azuma pinched her chin with one hand, with a cold smile on her lips: "Really?"

"……Yes."

"That's good." Yuki Azuma stared into Yuesenlian's eyes, and said slowly, word by word: "We each rely on our abilities and compete fairly."

"Look at the end, who will win."
