However, the tall and thin figure in the field of vision did not stop because of this.

Looking anxiously at the disappearing figure of the other party, Sakurai gasped in frustration, looked painfully at the two security guards who were tightly restraining him, and pleaded in his eyes: "Sir! Please! Can you help me get that Someone stop?..." Stretching out his hand and pointing at the tall man at the end of the road, Sakurai said dryly, "That's the tall man!"

Hearing this, staring at Sakurai's moving and sincere expression, the two security guards could not help but subconsciously look towards the end of the aisle.

Clenching his fists tightly, Sakurai stared at the distant silhouette with tearing eyes, afraid that if he moved his eyes, the convenience would disappear immediately.

However, across the thick human wall, the two security guards glanced at each other, then shrugged helplessly, and looked sideways at Sakurai's distorted face: "Sorry sir, we really can't help you."

After finishing speaking, Sakurai couldn't resist, and the two quickly backed away from the security gate with his body on his back.

"Wait! Please! Wait!!" With his feet desperately rubbing against the ground, Sakurai used all his strength to stop the movement of the two, but it was in vain.

——Sure enough, is it too late?

"Let me go! Please!..."

The security gate gradually moved away, and the figure of that person had disappeared around the corner.

"Please...let go..."

The corners of his lips trembled, and Sakurai's voice slowly softened.

After being dragged a long distance away from the security gate, the two men let go, with an apologetic expression on their faces: "I'm sorry." They patted him on the shoulder, and the two stopped talking, looked at each other, turned and left.

Stunned on the spot, Sakurai bowed his body fiercely with his head bowed, gritting his teeth tightly, feeling the sour pain raging up from his chest, as if it was about to tear his entire sanity apart.

His shoulders trembled uncontrollably, his chest heaved violently, and he clenched his fists tightly.

——They, that’s all, right?

"Senior..."

——They can only do this, right?

"Fujimoto...senpai..."

——However, I have a lot to say, and I haven't had a chance to talk to that person yet...

A drop of glittering and translucent slides down from the color line.

——Really, is it too late? ...

The corners of his lips trembled, and Sakurai heard his gradually uncontrollable sobs spread along the already hollowed out chest cavity.

Covering his forehead with one hand, he gasped violently, rubbing the boiling tears on his painful face regardless of his image.

His throat was so dry that he was about to suffocate, he clasped half of his face with five fingers, and slowly squatted down.

——Why, is it in this mood now?

——As if you missed something important, can't bear it?

--why?

——Sakurai Kaiichi, what are you suffering from?

——It was just a missed opportunity to confirm the lie.

——The man who disturbed all the good things in your memory has left, isn't it as you wished?

——Isn't it... Should you be happy?

Tears are still falling.

He instinctively shrunk his shoulders, desperately suppressing the uncontrollable trembling.

——What are you crying for?Shouldn't you be laughing?

Crouching on the ground, he sobbed softly, like a helpless child, longing for redemption.

He reached into his pocket with one hand, and slowly took out an item and put it in the palm of his hand.

- Basketball key chain.

Looking at the worn surface of the pendant, Sakurai inexplicably felt a pain in his heart again.

——Fujimoto-senpai, don't forget me. ——

Slowly rubbing the faded surface of the pendant with his fingertips, Sakurai's eyes were hazy, recalling that he gave this pendant as a gift to the man two years ago, full of anticipation.

--do not forget me. ——

Tears slowly fell on the surface of the pendant, and Sakurai slowly tightened his palms until the stiff pendant hurt himself.

——The other party...has actually kept this thing...

——How did he spend the past two years, do you know?Because he failed to save your mother at that time, he was in so much pain that he had to take sleeping pills every night to fall asleep.Basketball is what he loves, but because of physical reasons, plus things about you and your mother when playing basketball, he feels that he is not worthy of realizing his dream!He decided to give up!All for you! ——

Chiba's screaming voice echoed in his ears again, and Sakurai couldn't help closing his eyes tightly.

Slowly and stiffly, he took out the phone from his pocket, looking at the time displayed on it, Sakurai suddenly felt a burst of despair in his heart.

——9:08.pm

In ten minutes, that person will leave.

Subconsciously opening the address book, Sakurai found Fujimoto's number.

Calling up the delete interface, Sakurai's fingertips tremblingly hung on the "Delete" key.

However, it was silent for a long time, but did not press it for a long time.

Gritting his teeth, he controlled his messy breath, exited the delete interface, and brought up the dial interface again.

——Then, just dial one last time.

Anyway, it must be a busy tone.

Then, take it as the last help to make a decision for yourself.

——The decision to remove the other party from his mind forever.

9:10pm.

Sakurai pressed the dial button.

Staring blankly at the ground, Sakurai numbly squatted on the spot, waiting for the busy tone he had heard several times.

"Om-"

"..." Frowning, Sakurai moved his shoulders.

"Om-"

Subconsciously pulling the phone away from her face, Sakurai stared at the screen wonderingly, noticing that there were no other calls coming in.

The busy tone waiting by the ear still did not come in.

Sakurai put the phone to his ear again and held his breath.

"Om-"

"Om - hum -"

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The sound of something vibrating became clearer and clearer from far to near.

"..." Squeezing the phone, Sakurai pricked up his ears, inexplicably feeling his nerves gradually trembling.

Stiffly maintaining the movement of squatting in place, Sakurai did not move, and did not hang up the phone.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The sound is already very clear.

Right behind... him.

Letting the dull vibration rage behind him for a moment, Sakurai dryly took the phone away from his ear, and pressed the end button with trembling fingertips.

——The vibrating sound behind him also stopped abruptly.

On the ground, the shadow cast by the white light on the zenith of the waiting hall was covered by a tall figure.

He glanced at the phone again.

9:12pm.

Trying to adjust the exhalation that seemed to be about to stop, Sakurai slowly stood up from the ground again, his eyes wandered, hesitantly, as if he had lost all judgment.

Behind him, the oppressive sense of existence slowly penetrated from his back to every inch of his skin.

Thoughts were blurred, Sakurai tried hard to move, but his body seemed to be cursed, unable to move at all.

"Kay."

However, just when Sakurai's mind was blank, an unusually familiar and steady voice suddenly touched his ears.

"Why are you here?"

For some reason, hearing the voice that was close at hand, Sakurai felt the crystals in the corners of his eyes surge out again inappropriately.

"..."

Lowering his head and clenching his fists, Sakurai fiercely bit the corner of his lips, trying to suppress the violent sobs.

In the palm, the touch of the key chain became more and more vivid.

"Kay?"

The other party's voice didn't fluctuate at all.

"..."

He wanted to respond to the other party, but just as he opened his mouth, the trembling throat stopped him from continuing to speak.

——Doing not want the other party to see his embarrassing face, he didn't turn around, and tried his best to suppress all the slight sucking sounds.

After waiting in silence for a moment, Sakurai heard a small wry smile behind him.

Immediately afterwards, the person behind him moved and said in a clear voice, "Sorry, I know you don't want to see me." After a pause, the other party's voice was faintly dim, "Don't worry, after tonight, I won't Appear in front of you again."

After speaking, the other party seemed to have no intention of explaining anything.

After a while, Sakurai heard footsteps coming from behind him.

Looking back like an electric shock, his face was full of pain, and his voice hoarsely called: "Wait!"

In the field of vision, the tall figure froze and gradually slowed down.

Staring at the body line with his back to him, Sakurai stretched out his hand to wipe away the tear stains on his face stiffly, trying to restrain the trembling Adam's apple: "I ask you... Are those things true?"

Hearing this, the shoulders of the person in front trembled.

"Is what Qianye said true?..."

Step by step approaching the man in front, Sakurai's eyes were hazy, and tears slid out again.

"..."

"Tell me, is it true?..."

Standing one step behind Fuji itself, Sakurai felt that the turbulent emotions were about to be overwhelmed.

After a long silence, Fujimoto turned around helplessly.

He just opened his mouth to say something, but his eyes were full of tears and bloodshot Sakurai, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

The four eyes met, and the corners of Sakurai's lips trembled.

Even though he kept his face expressionless, the broken bead still rolled down along the line of his face disobediently.

"..." His eyes dimmed for a moment, and Fujimoto was speechless.

"It's all true, right?"

"..."

"You almost died in order to save my mother?"

"..." Staring at Sakurai with complicated eyes, Fujimoto was speechless.

For some reason, looking at the extremely gentle gaze of the handsome man opposite, Sakurai suddenly felt an unprecedented pain in his heart.

——Don't...don't look at me like that again...

Gritting his teeth, opening his eyes sideways, Sakurai Ren's cheeks were surging and crystal clear, trying to stay calm: "Answer me."

However, just as he was shielding the turbulent undercurrent in his heart, the handsome man who was close at hand slowly took a step closer to him.In the next second, before he could react, a big warm hand covered his cheek, gently stroking his skin, wiping away tears.

"..." The body line froze for a moment, Sakurai felt the unusually gentle touch in a daze, and cast his eyes on the bright-eyed face in front of him.

"Kai." His eyes were smudged, Fujimoto didn't answer Sakurai, but let his fingertips trace the tears from the corners of Sakurai's eyes to his chin, "Take care of your body, don't try to be brave."

After finishing speaking, a piercing wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips, Fujimoto reached out his hand to the end of Sakurai's hair, and rubbed it softly.

——Just like when we first met on the court that year.

After a while, he withdrew his palm wordlessly, and Fujimoto lowered his eyes.

However, Fang was about to turn around and leave, but the boy in front of him suddenly leaned forward.

In the next second, before Fujimoto could react, the forehead of the other party hit his chest heavily, and his hands tightly grabbed his chest and he remained motionless.

"..."

Widening his eyes in astonishment, Fujimoto was stunned.

Stiffly letting the other party hold his arms tightly, Fujimoto looked down at the top of the other party's silver hair without saying a word, his eyes gradually became solemn.

"you this……"

I don't know how long the stalemate lasted, the person in front of the chest lowered his head and spoke in a dull voice.

The fingertips clenched again, as if to tear Fujimoto's chest apart, Sakurai gritted his teeth, and the newly gushed tears soaked the chest of the person in front of him.

"You bastard..."

"..."

"...A selfish bastard to the end..."

His shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and Sakurai shook his head in pain.

"..." Looking at the person in front of him speechlessly, Fujimoto sighed slightly, "Kai, let go, I have to catch a plane."

"You self-righteous bastard..." As if not hearing Fujimoto's words, Sakurai continued to hold his chest, gasping for breath.

"..."

"In the past two years, do you know how much pain I have had?!..."

"I know."

"No! You don't know!" Holding on to the other party, Sakurai refused to look up.

"Kai." Let the other side's forehead rest against his chest, Fujimoto's voice was steady, "What happened to your mother back then was not your fault." He lowered his head, and he reached out his hand to hug Sakurai's body back, but his palm froze. After a moment in the air, he gave up again, "Learn to forgive yourself."

Listening to the other party's words, Sakurai's shoulders trembled violently, and then he raised his head abruptly.

"You don't understand anything at all, so don't presumptuously guess my mood, understand?!"

"..."

"The thing about you donating blood is true, right?!"

"..."

"Then why didn't you tell me the truth? Eh?! You think I'm too weak to take it, don't you?!"

"..."

"You think you're protecting me like that, don't you?!"

"..."

"I feel like I've done something heroic, don't you?!" Sakurai's eyes sparkled fiercely.

"..."

Sneering, Sakurai wiped away his tears viciously: "You don't even know what the root of my pain is..."

"..."

"Yes... I can't save my mother. It is indeed a huge pain in my heart. But..." Gritting his teeth, he closed his eyes fiercely, "But what made me most unacceptable at the time was the fact that you didn't save my mother !” Frowning in pain, he sobbed intermittently, “If the person you are most attached to is the root cause of hurting your mother, how are you feeling?!!”

"..."

Hearing the phrase "the person I love the most" from the other party, Fujimoto opened his dark eyes dumbly.

"And now...you find out like an idiot that you have hated and complained for two years, but in the end, everything is just a lie! So how do you respond?!"

"..."

"A lie in the name of 'protecting you'!"

He has been in pain, he has complained, and he even thought that when he sees Fujimoto again, he will make the other party die badly for the rest of his life.

however……

Even so, so what.

He knew that his pain did not only come from that blazing resentment...

And... hate.

——I hated myself for not being there.

——Hate myself for knowing that Fujimoto failed to save his mother, but still wanting to excuse him.

hatred……

——Even after so long, I still can't forget Fujimoto himself.
