[Comprehensive] Reasons for not being in love

Planning, LW, promise, and Akashi.No matter how these few key words remind Tomei of the trip to the amusement park on her so-called first date with Akashi.

Now that I think about it, that guy Akashi has been tricking her since then, right?

But even so, Tomei has always been happy with Akashi's routine at that time.It's just that looking at it now, Akashi's object is Fujii Kaori, not her Koga Tona.

Hey, why is she struggling with this problem again... Stop it!

All in all, Akashi Seijuro, who is now 25 years old, shouldn't do such childish behavior again, right?For example, in order to test her, after many years, he pulled out the reason of going to see Hengshan and took her to the amusement park.

Therefore, Tomei once again treated this meeting with Yokoyama quite seriously as a formal occasion.

But in fact, Tomei is still the same as Tucson.On the appointed day, Akashi personally came to Atobe House, and the destination he was going to after picking up Tomei was actually an amusement park.To be precise, it is the same room as ten years ago.

Seeing the iconic Ferris wheel slowly moving in a circular motion like ten years ago, Toname knew that it was too young and naive to use normal thinking to speculate on Akashi's thoughts.

Hehe, it's an old trick.

"Are you looking for President Yokoyama at the amusement park again?"

Tomei has experienced the same routine, and he has some knowledge in his heart, so he was not surprised by Akashi's trip.

"Again?" Akashi quickly caught the key words in Tona's casual words, which even she didn't notice.

Tomei was taken aback, and then quickly added an explanation, trying to be vague, "Ah... that... I heard that President Hengshan will bring children from the orphanage to the amusement park every weekend."

It was supposed to be a normal explanation, but Akashi frowned because of this, and his gaze at Tomei also sank.

"I... am I wrong?" Dong Ming blinked, did she remember correctly?That's what Akashi said ten years ago.

Akashi returned to his usual peaceful face, and then shook his head. He didn't explain further, and replied lightly: "President Yokoyama is indeed here."

Dong Ming breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, she thought Akashi was a little surprised because she knew about it.If she were to be asked, she couldn't possibly say that she knew about it ten years ago, right?

"Let's go, I've already bought the tickets in advance."

After finishing speaking, Akashi turned his body sideways, letting Tona walk a little ahead of him.

Compared with ten years ago, the height gap between the two is bigger.From Akashi's perspective, Toname's figure is particularly petite and cute.Of course, what Akashi cares about is Tomei's various "weird" words and deeds.

It was precisely the fact that Hengshan brought the children from the orphanage to the amusement park. After Kaori Fujii was admitted to the hospital ten years ago due to illness, Hengshan no longer maintained the habit of visiting the amusement park once a week.

Not to mention this matter, even ten years ago, not many people knew about it, let alone why Tomei can directly say it now.

Akashi's eyes couldn't help staying on the girl's gentle and quiet outline for a while longer.He began to become interested in Keigo Atobe's cousin.

"Koga, is there anything you want to play?"

Akashi asked casually, but Tomy felt that the voice seemed like yesterday.

This same questioning in the same scene ten years ago happened only a few months ago in Tomei's timeline.

"Eh?"

She turned her head sideways in shock, raised her chin and looked at Akashi's unchanging peaceful face, the red eyes still couldn't read what kind of emotion was written.

"Aren't you going to see President Yokoyama?"

After Tomei said this, even she realized that this reaction... was exactly the same as what she showed when facing Akashi ten years ago as Fujii.

Why can she step into a trap that she has experienced once!

Okay, okay, she already knew that Akashi would definitely say that he came to the amusement park to try his luck, but he didn't know where Yokoyama was, so let's take a look first.

Of course, if Akashi's thoughts can be easily guessed, then it's not Akashi.

When Tomei thought about it for granted, Akashi's clear voice sounded slowly: "There is still a lot of time, it's rare that Atobe is not here, don't you want to relax?"

"Eh?"

Wait, this script is wrong!

"I think Atobe should have restricted you very much during this time." Akashi said, pointing to his head, hinting at Toname's situation.

"That's right..." Tomei nodded in agreement, she paused for half a second, as if thinking of something again, she suddenly gave a playful smile, "However, Mr. Akashi is not worried at all if I get out What's the problem, my cousin might..." The words ended here, and finally he raised his eyebrows at Akashi inexplicably.

"Well, this possibility really needs to be considered. Compared to this, I'm more interested in Atobe's reaction." Akashi also replied to Eto with a raised eyebrow, and it was obvious on his face that he wanted to see a good show. .

Dong Ming: ...

Forget it, I really can't tease this person, and this is an enhanced version of 10+, so I will definitely be the one who suffers in the end.

Unknowingly, Tomei's instinctive nervousness and anxiety when facing Akashi ten years later gradually faded away in the interaction with the latter.

Yes, why is she struggling so much?Act how you want to behave, Akashi doesn't know what kind of mood she is in, what is she afraid of, Koga Tona!

"Koga, don't you really want to play something?"

Akashi asked Dongmei again if there was anything he wanted to play, and Tomei's answer was still to choose to decline.She felt embarrassed facing the 15-year-old Akashi, let alone facing an adult, not a cousin, how could she be embarrassed!

That being the case, Akashi took Tomei directly to meet Yokoyama.

Looking at Akashi's familiar guide all the way, it's not like he said ten years ago that he didn't know where Yokoyama was.The route was exactly the same as ten years ago. Finally, in front of the carousel, I met the cold-faced and rigid President Yokoyama.

So, can Hengshan's habit be defined as "bringing children to play on the merry-go-round"?Akashi ten years ago was simply teasing her on purpose.

Forget it, she's used to this person, it's been ten years, and she still looks like this...

The Hengshan in front of him is obviously more vicissitudes than ten years ago, but what has not changed is his cold steel face.The spinning pony was bobbing up and down with the music, and Hengshan looked at the children who were already sitting on the pony.

"President Yokoyama, long time no see." Akashi greeted with a clear voice.

Yokoyama and Akashi met face to face, and the two nodded and saluted each other very seriously.The former's eyes that were as cold as a knife's edge naturally fell on Tona who was walking beside Akashi immediately.

Tomei immediately bowed and introduced himself to Yokoyama in a courteous manner: "Hi, President Yokoyama, I'm Koga Tomei, from the Teiko Middle School Student Council."

Speaking of Teiko, Yokoyama's eyes turned back to Akashi, he raised his eyebrows, and said with a low smile: "Seijuro, you brought your own junior here to find me, what's the matter?"

Akashi just smiled and didn't answer.

"You kid." Hengshan admired Akashi and knew him well.Akashi's reaction was as he expected, and he laughed a few times, "Christmas is coming, why did you specially bring the little girl from Teiko over here to remind me? I'm not so old-fashioned that I'll forget what I said if."

What he said naturally refers to the relationship between LW and Diguang.

"President Yokoyama, don't think of me like that. This junior just came to play a game of chess with you." In a humble tone, polite and respectful.But this is the case, Akashi's appearance still looks domineering, and it doesn't make people feel humble at all.

Dong Ming looked at the two of them speechless for a while, did the two start to flirt with each other again...

While in a daze, Tona didn't know that the next second, Akashi called her name, "This time, Koga will ask you for advice instead of me."

Tomei: ? ? ?

Before it was Tomei's turn to respond, Yokoyama's deep and deep voice directly interrupted her train of thought: "Since it is the child recommended by Seijuro, it seems that I have to be more serious."

Wait a minute!What happened when these two people sang together?People stand on the sidelines, and the pot comes from the sky?

"Eh? Mr. Akashi..."

Akashi patted Tomei's shoulder calmly, "Koga, I believe in you."

Wait... Really, this scene looks familiar!Ten years ago, I seemed to be sold like this! Hey!

Despite the infinite roar in Tomei's heart, on the surface she obediently obeyed Akashi's "absolute instructions".Fortunately, when I was obsessed with Akashi, I studied shogi very hard.But then again... how did Akashi know that she could play chess?

Of course, these are all things to come.

Akashi deliberately came to the amusement park to find Yokoyama, and the purpose was naturally not just to let Tomei and Yokoyama meet.After dismissing the two of them to play chess, he sat on a chair not far away, as if he was waiting for someone.

Yokoyama and Tomei, who were concentrating on the chess game, naturally didn't pay attention to Akashi's side. Not long after, a girl who looked like a high school student came in front of Akashi and bowed slightly to Akashi.

'Excuse me, I called you out specially. Akashi gestured to the girl with sign language.

The girl is none other than Yuri Egawa, who is now 17 years old.That's right, the deaf-mute loli who liked Fujii Kaori very much ten years ago.Today, she is two years older than Tona.

Yuri took out a chapter of old photos with badly damaged corners from his pocket, and handed it to Akashi.

The photo was taken at the Diguang playground, and the background is covered with thick snow.Although the color of the photo is blurred and faded due to the passage of time, the faces of the three people above are still very clear - 15-year-old Akashi, [-]-year-old Yuri and Fujii Kaori.

At that time, Momoi kept three photos of this photo, Fujii gave one to Akashi, and the remaining two were for herself and Yuri.However, the two cards that Fujii kept in his hands disappeared as Tona left.The only reason why Yuri has the only one now is that when Akashi showed Lolita Yuri the photo back then, the little girl liked it very much, so she gave it to her.

'It was crumpled up when the Hyacinth House moved a few months ago, and it was almost lost, but it was found. 'Waving his hands apologetically from the inside.

People's memory will be blurred, just like after waking up from a dream, but can't remember the content of the dream.But what is recorded will never be lost.

Seeing the girl in the photo, Akashi's dusty memory seemed to open a floodgate, and the picture gradually became clearer.

'Do you remember her? Akashi pointed to Fujii Yoshiori in the photo.

"I don't remember the name, but..." Yuri's hands paused, "I thought that seeing Brother Akashi again, this older sister would become Brother Akashi's bride." '

Bride... In fact, he can't remember the name clearly, but he just remembers that there is such a girl, who makes him care about the existence of a girl.

Even though he was full of emotions, Akashi still had a calm expression.

'Can this photo be kept here temporarily? '

Yuri nodded.

Akashi carefully put the photo in his pocket.He wanted to confirm one thing, who was Tona Koga, who looked exactly like the girl in the photo.

Although in Akashi's heart, he already had the answer to this question.

From the first time I saw Tomei in the Teiko Student Union Room, and the silhouettes of the two people who almost overlap...

There will be intersections with Koga Touma again and again, the reason is that he went to Teiko to get back the photos that were clipped in the file.That photo was one of the ones taken at the post-Christmas Eve Festival ten years ago, the one without a picture for unknown reasons.

Akashi accidentally met Saijo Eita, the boy who was hospitalized with Fujii Kaori, and Saijo Eita mentioned that there was a girl's name behind the photo.Those photos scattered before Kaori Fujii fell into a coma were scattered in front of Eita.

There is clearly a distance of ten years... Could it be that there is such a thing?

Akashi looked at Tomei who was playing chess with Yokoyama in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
