cloudy day

"Silver hour."

Katsura Kotaro was always very serious when he called Sakata Yin, and he pronounced his words very clearly. He would neither mispronounce a word on purpose like a fool, nor call it sticky and gloomy like a middle school student, like a stuck It's like a ghost that can't get up or down in the sewer.

Sakata Gintoki, who just woke up from his sleep, saw the sky from the top of the wig.

At that time, the sky was high and far away, and the clean blue was so clear that you almost wanted to cry, and then the fluffy, grotesque clouds would instantly heal you.

"Yinshi, the teacher will ask questions and recite the text in the next class. I know you must have fallen asleep in the last class, so I came here to remind you."

There is a smug and "come and thank me" mood on the wig's naive face.

If that gloomy guy hadn't appeared, Gintoki would have hummed a couple of times casually, turned over and fell back asleep.

At that time, Mr. Aishan, who was less than one meter tall, walked over on short legs, grabbed Yin without saying anything, and walked out.

The wig wobbled and followed, shouting their names indiscriminately, trying to stop Takasugi and Gintoki who were blatantly skipping class.

Later, when Songyang reprimanded the three of them, the wig explained seriously: "Teacher, I didn't skip class, I went to stop the two of them from skipping class."

So, it turns out that the disease of stupid cuteness... Once the root cause of the disease has fallen in childhood, it can't be cured when it grows up.

Takasugi grabbed his right wrist tightly, Yinshi struggled to dodge the weeds and branches that sprang out from time to time, and by the way complained in his heart: I really want to know how that guy Takasugi didn't avoid being disfigured?

Suddenly realized that he could no longer hear the nagging of the wig-like old lady, Yinshi looked back, the guy had disappeared, he must have gone back the same way to report to Teacher Songyang.

"Hey, Dwarf Cedar..."

Takasugi Shinsuke turned his head and gave Gintoki a vicious look, never expecting that such big watery eyes could have the effect of staring at people.

"Where are you going to take me? Ah Yin, I'm so sleepy..."

"Come with me."

Ai Shan always answers irrelevant questions, and he has never changed his bad habit.I don't know if it's because I haven't been reminded.

"Where are you going?"

"It's almost there!" Gao Shan had already turned his head, and it could be heard from his voice how impatient he was at this moment.

Yinshi didn't bother to ask any more questions, subconsciously reached for Lake Toya with his left hand, in case there was an emergency.

Takasugi Shinsuke kept walking, heading towards the depths of the forest.The deeper the forest, the higher the possibility of hidden dangers.

I must... protect him.Silver thought so.

Suddenly the eyes lit up.

It turned out to be at the top of the mountain.

The dizzy warm wind came from all directions, blowing every inch of his skin.All eyes are the ocean.The sea of ​​green trees and the sea of ​​pure white clouds fluctuate.

The body is as light as a swallow, as if it can spread its wings and fly high in the next second.

but……

"Hey, Xiaoshan, have we been here before?"

Gintoki turned his head, but Takasugi was not by his side.

"Hey, here."

Takasugi's voice came from another direction.Yin Shi looked over in response to the reputation, but suddenly froze in place.

Where Takasugi was standing, there were three small trees standing side by side, and three mottled signs hung crookedly on the thin branches.

— Silver hour.wig.Short (crossed out) Takasugi.

Those names were written by Yinshi.And he didn't even remember.

Gao Sugi stood with his hands on his hips next to the Japanese cedar tree with his name on it, his pretty face glowed with excitement, and he said to Gintoki proudly, "Look, I'm the tallest!"

He didn't talk about the tree with his name tag on it, but he talked about himself directly.

Sakata Gintoki was out of breath laughing.

"Hahahahaha..."

The reason why he laughed so hard was not only because Gao Shan's innocence that finally raised his eyebrows was funny, but actually because he finally remembered, including those things that Gao Shan didn't know.

When buying saplings, Yin Shi specially chose a variety of cedars that don't grow tall - dense branched cedars for him with Gao Shan on his back.

And Takasugi must not know that among the tall cedar trees, there is also a type that does not grow tall.

I remember that when Gintoki handed the cedar saplings to Takasugi, he seemed to say something like "May you grow tall and tall like a cedar tree".The naive Takasugi looked at him for a long time with bright eyes, and then bought him a few candies as a thank you gift without saying a word.During that time, they played two doubles so that Gui was a little jealous.It's just that the two of them had a falling out because of some trivial matter that they don't remember.

Now recalling this incident, and seeing that Gao Shan valued this tree so much, he must have come to have a look every three days or so, Yinshi suddenly felt that he was pitiful, cute, and funny.

Aside from being funny, of course there is a little guilt and guilt.But, sure enough, it was still pretty funny. 【puff】

The embarrassing Gao Shan finally couldn't bear it anymore, staring at his beautiful purple eyes, scowling viciously like an adult, "Why are you laughing! What's so funny!"

"Hahaha...No...I'm not laughing at anything..."

He wouldn't say that it didn't take long for Takasugi to find that the cedar tree that represented him couldn't grow any taller.It must be very uncomfortable to watch the two trees next to you get taller, while your own tree stays at the same height.

Maybe, because of the curse brought by this tree, Takasugi will really not grow taller.

Then he is guilty.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing again.

The wanton joy melted in the midsummer sun, and the warmth of the summer that was engraved on time failed to leave a mark in the cold winter of memory.

It's almost forgotten that we were tired of relying on each other.

When returning with Takasugi Toto, Sakata Gintoki kept rubbing his stomach.

Takasugi's complexion is not very good, it seems that he intends to have a cold war with Gintoki.

Yinshi didn't care, and continued rubbing his belly, then glanced lazily at his gloomy face.He knew that the short cedar would automatically misinterpret the casual glance as a pathetic appeal for peace.

Sure enough.Takasugi's eyes are still fierce, but his facial expression is a little softer, but his tone is still a bit blunt when he expresses his concern: "What's the matter? Eating indiscriminately has finally ruined your stomach?"

"No." Sakata Gintoki shook his head, and replied seriously: "My stomach is cramping with laughter."

Shinsuke Takasugi swept over with a sharp eye.Sakata Gintoki launched the skill "A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water" and successfully blocked it.

Suddenly, there was a strange movement from the nearby bushes, and the two of them turned serious at the same time.Gintoki quickly grasped Lake Toya, turned his footsteps and dodged in front of Takasugi.Gao Shan frowned and was about to drag him to the back, but it was too late.

A black figure rushed over from the bushes, a cold light flashed in Yinshi's eyes, and Lake Toya with his right hand greeted him mercilessly.

"Silver time!"

The wooden knife narrowly stopped at a position about one centimeter away from Gui Xiaotaro's face, and if he took a step forward, he would surely gain the nickname of the frantic noble son in the future.

The author has something to say:

Note: Japanese cedar is a tall evergreen tree, up to 70 meters.Japanese cedar forests account for 12% of the land in Japan and are also the main cause of widespread hay fever.One of the cultivars, Cryptomeria, is popular for its perpetual dwarf shrub shape, reaching a height of only 5 to 10 meters. [The above is from Wikipedia]

PS.I just came across this by accident and came up with this stalk. I don’t know much about this kind of cedar cedar. It may not be scientific. Don’t pay too much attention to it.Just think about how dwarf cedars look crazy when they look at cedar trees that don’t grow at all. Haha o(≧v≦)o~~
