[Kuroko's basketball] Ome

It was two days later when he finally realized something was wrong, probably because the weather was getting colder, and it was rare for the girl next door to climb up to his balcony barefoot at night, and Midorima subconsciously opened the window while heaving a sigh of relief. Slits... Habits are really scary things.

Midorima Shintaro is a person who pays great attention to the rules of life. After realizing that the behavior of the girl next door can be called an idiot, it is unlikely to be corrected. The time to implement this work and rest plan is not long, but it is enough to make the young man in the green room feel annoyed by the sudden change.

Yes, the time has come, the person who should appear has not appeared, and he doesn't know what to do now.

Kaitou Xiongba was leaning on his desk leaning against him. Opposite him was a wolf with a big tail and a scar on his face. One of the wolf's eyes was covered with a blindfold. In his hand was a big knife. Showing a hateful expression, it is said that the scar on its face was drawn by Xiong Ba on the opposite side.

Thinking of the serious look on the girl's face when she said this, Midorima couldn't help but rubbed her forehead with a headache, took off the two puppets and opened the drawer and threw them in. He was stunned for a small Renyi cat figure.

"Give this small one to you, and take it with you as a talisman. Maybe Renyi Cat won't bully you anymore."

That was after he lost a pair of glasses at the claws of Renyi's cat a few days ago. Even Midorima doesn't like to carry dolls that are not lucky things with him. She originally planned to refuse, but she couldn't help but say Pushing it to him, he turned and climbed back to his balcony.

Stretching out his hand to take the small thing that can be held in one hand, he realized that there was an extra rope on it. At first glance, it looked similar to the mobile phone pendants sold in the world, and the corners of his mouth raised quietly when he didn't realize it. However, the boy's voice was still awkward.

"Like a fool."

The girl who climbed the balcony to harass him for an hour every day, rain or shine, suddenly disappeared, and the boy noticed that there were traces of her passing everywhere in the room in just a few months.She did not know when to find the red package, and now it was safely put on the alarm clock, and he was also unknowingly getting used to seeing the bright red every day when he opened his eyes.The green frog was locked in the cabinet by him after his return. She came several times but couldn't find it. Later, she was always attracted by other things. Frog too... Frog seems to be completely abandoned by her After touching the back of his head, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but his heart was inexplicably strange.

Even though the girl seems to have an extraordinary love for all the puppets, but the feeling for the green frog is different, he vaguely has this feeling, because it is the only one she sneaks in in the middle of the night and wants to take it away thing.

Thinking of this, he suddenly picked up the frog doll and walked over to open the glass door of the balcony. The lights on the balcony next door were brightly lit. The girl was sitting on the balcony with a stool and resting her chin with her hands as if watching the stars. Midorima was startled, subconsciously He was about to turn around and go back to the house, but suddenly heard Chihaya's voice that seemed to be talking to himself.

"Porco Rosso, tell me, do the stars here look better or those in Kyushu?"

Porco Rosso was strangely silent...it's weird not to be silent.

"Okay, Flying Bear, tell me." The girl turned and patted the brown bear with an antenna on its head, "Porco Rosso is a city pig, so it's only natural that you don't know, but you are a native-born country bear."

"boom"

There was a lot of noise from the balcony next door, Chihaya immediately stopped talking with the puppets, and turned her head, the neighbor boy was lowering his head and rubbing his head, holding something he hadn't seen for a long time in the other hand.

"Frog to help you!" She stood up in surprise and lay down on the balcony, habitually about to climb over the wall, but suddenly remembered something and put her legs down, "Xiao Zhen hasn't slept so late."

"Just finished my homework, come out to blow some air." The young man in the green room responded frankly, not to mention that he actually came out of a sudden brain twitch, the girl opposite blinked, and seemed to completely believe his words , he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh..." She responded with a drawn out voice, and then turned her gaze to the starry sky above, "Xiao Zhen doesn't seem to like to come out at night, the stars in Tokyo are very beautiful."

"Compared to Kyushu?" After saying this, Luma was stunned, and then secretly annoyed, but Chihaya didn't notice his strangeness at all, and suddenly turned her head to look at him.

"Xiaozhen asked a strange question. The stars are not the same everywhere." She had a puzzled expression of "Have you never taken astronomy class?" Midorima's face was distorted for a moment.

"I'm going to bed." Angrily leaving this sentence, he turned around and was about to leave, but the girl suddenly spoke again.

"However, people in Tokyo are quite different from people in Kyushu."

Midorima paused, remembering the rumor that even he, who never pays attention to gossip, heard about it not long ago, he pushed his glasses unconsciously.

"Things like that... People are different from each other. It's because your expectations of people's hearts are too high." He used a word that sounded profound, and the girl who had always been dull instinctively rolled her eyes.

"Expectation value?"

"It means that you think too well of people's hearts...you are too well protected."

This remark hit the point, Chihaya was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face suddenly showed an almost sad color.

"You're right, I actually..."

Her grandfather is a very strict person. Most of the time, girls who don’t come home in the middle of the night or run wild outside in the rain will be severely punished. It is the grandmother who cleans up the mess every time.She has two uncles who live not far from her grandfather's house. She and those cousins ​​often go out to play together. The village is not big and the terrain is not complicated, but the small woods and ponds in the village are the most suitable for playing hide-and-seek Place, that was her favorite game when she was a child. Many times, when she was saddened by her grandfather's reprimand, she would run to hide alone.

"It's strange, no matter where I hide, grandpa can always find me..."

At that time, she always felt that grandpa was a very magical person, and she respected that elder a lot, and gradually became more in awe, and became even more afraid to get close to her after a long time, but the girl had in her heart that she was deeply loved. So I gradually learned to be clever and play a little naughty within the scope allowed by my grandfather.

That was probably the only setback in her young life.

"I have never seen the outside world. When I was a child, I always thought the world was only that big. Later, when my mother came to visit me occasionally, she gave me those books... I like the stories described in the books very much, and I always think 'so the outside world' It’s like this’, maybe Xiaozhen you said, I have too high expectations for people’s hearts, but even if I understand this, I still feel very depressed.”

When it came to the end, it felt like weeping, Midorima suddenly felt his scalp go numb, worried that she would really cry again, so he hurriedly turned around and looked at her.

"Life is unsatisfactory in all likelihood, not everything will develop in the direction you expect, and you should be prepared to fail at the very beginning... At this time, think more about those who love you, and the rest will not care what they say Just don't worry about it."

At that time, the boy had not yet become a generation of miracles, and he did not have the belief that he would never lose. He was just an ordinary boy who was full of expectations for victory, so he talked about these great truths clearly and logically. The girl on the opposite side stared at him. Almost flustered, he suddenly laughed.

"Pfft, Xiao Zhen looks so nervous..."

Who did that?

Midorima froze for a moment, then turned around uncomfortably and went back to the house, but suddenly heard a familiar "boom" sound from behind, turned his head and saw the black-haired girl barefoot on the balcony of his house, the corner of his mouth There was a twitch.

"What are you going to do?"

"The weather seems to be getting colder." She widened her eyes and rubbed her feet underneath to keep warm.

"If you know it's cold, put on your shoes and go back to your room to sleep."

"But I want to sleep with you..."

"...Get out." Someone is more than just too good to be protected.

"...There is no one in my house." The girl's voice suddenly quieted down, and Midorima's hand that was closing the door paused, and then she remembered that today her mother seemed to say that she would work the night shift with the aunt next door, and her father was doing it again. Working long-distance transportation, he is often away from home... Looking down inadvertently, he saw the girl's feet that were still curled up, and the boy became even more anxious.

"You wait."

After he finished speaking, he closed the door and got busy in the house. The girl stared at the closed glass door curiously. A gust of night wind blew by, bringing the chill of early autumn. She shrank her shoulders unconsciously and stood on tiptoe. Standing on tiptoe to try to see what's going on inside, Menhuo was pulled away, the girl who was unsteady threw herself towards Midorima, and the boy nimbly stretched out his hand to hold her shoulder.

"What are you playing with?"

"What are you doing?" She asked as she poked her head into the room. Because of her constant care, she quickly noticed something strange in the room. "What is that?"

She pointed to the green lump next to the desk, Midorima turned her head and snorted.

"You sleep here."

"Oh, okay." The girl ran in barefoot with infinite joy, and quickly got in at the moment when regret flashed in the boy's mind, but suddenly poked her head out of the sleeping bag.

"Good night, Xiaozhen."

Midori was dumbfounded.

It seems too late to regret now, and it’s not time to go to bed, Midorima sat back at the desk and tried hard to ignore the fact that there was one more person in the room, and the ball in the sleeping bag seemed to be really happy after saying good night. Falling asleep, Midorima rested her forehead with one hand, only to realize that the book in her hand had been held upside down.

So what the hell is he doing.

"Is Xiaozhen still asleep?"

A girl's muffled voice came from the sleeping bag, Midorima snorted softly, Chihaya suddenly opened the sleeping bag and sat up.

"Can't sleep."

"I'm sleepy." Midorima immediately said wisely, put down the book in his hand and lay back on the bed, continuing to ignore the extra person in the room, but suddenly heard the sound of something mopping the floor, he sat up hastily, black The hairy girl was pulling a sleeping bag towards the empty seat beside his bed, and he suddenly lost all sleepiness.

"what are you doing?"

"I have insomnia, I can't sleep because I can't hear people's voices." Chihaya explained very seriously, ignoring the expression of Midorima's eyes that were about to protrude, she picked a suitable place to spread the sleeping bag over, and then got into it again.

"Good night, Xiaozhen."

"Are you kidding me, do you really want to sleep here?" Midorima growled in disbelief.

"Good night, Xiaozhen." She repeated stubbornly, her calm appearance formed a sharp contrast with the current green room.

"Hey you……"

"I've said goodnight three times, and Xiaozhen wants to say it too." She finally raised her head to look at Midorima, her eyes were wide open, looking quite sad, and Midorima backed away subconsciously.

"……Good night."

"Well, Xiaozhen also went to bed early." The girl who achieved her goal finally lay back in her sleeping bag and fell asleep again. The corner of Midorima's mouth twitched, and she finally gave up reasoning with the aliens. She turned around and lay back on the bed, staring at the ceiling for a moment but didn't know. how to sleep.

I also couldn't understand how things could develop like this.

After being in such confusion for an unknown amount of time, Midorima was suddenly moved by the sleepiness that finally fell, and was about to fall asleep with heavy eyelids when the girl's voice sounded again in the room.

"Xiao Zhen, are you asleep?"

"..."

"Xiaozhen, Xiaozhen..."

"Sleep!" God, is it too late for him to regret it now?Can this neighbor be thrown out?

"Oh." Midorima's impatient wavelength was finally received by the aliens, and the girl's voice lowered unconsciously. When Midorima heard her say something very softly, she turned sideways unconsciously, but the girl no longer After speaking, he stared at the green ball for a long time, until he heard the girl's steady breathing... Luma suddenly wanted to curse.

He didn't remember how he fell asleep. He opened his eyes, put on his glasses, and looked at the ground intuitively. The sleeping bag and Chihaya disappeared together. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his aching forehead. a creature.

The number of visits to his room is second only to the neighbor girl...no, maybe some creature more than her.

"You bastard..." He hurriedly turned over and jumped off the bed to drive it out, but he seemed to have stepped on something under his feet. The young man was stunned, lowered his head, and a white envelope was lying on the floor.

There was no postmark, no stamp, and only the words "Xiao Zhen received" were written on the envelope. Midorima's eyelids jumped for no reason, and an ominous premonition just emerged, and two things like movie tickets slipped from the envelope.

"Dear Xiaozhen, in order to repay you for taking care of Aren, I invite you to my autograph session, it's the VIP seat."

The scalp-numbing address, the tone of the age-old voice, and the graffiti of Sadako at the end are the masterpieces of the long-lost upstairs "Fang Neighbor".

"Boring." He picked up the two tickets and threw them towards the trash can. The Renyi cat, who had been silent all this time, suddenly jumped in that direction. Yearning eyes.

"Xiaozhen, I went to see sister Masadako's Twitter, she said that she is also in Tokyo, I wonder if there is a chance to meet her!"

How could there be no chance, isn't it just upstairs.

He couldn't say that, although he probably didn't want the weird-minded girl next door to be more influenced by that woman, but occasionally he thought that if the girl who was full of expectations for an idol knew the legendary truth Sadako is a sloppy cooking idiot, and she will definitely show that frustrated look in her eyes again.

He was the one who was unlucky at that time.

Just when the boy was thinking more and more irritable, Huamao suddenly bit the two tickets and ran out, Midorima was taken aback, and instinctively tried to stop it.

"and many more!"

Of course Renyi Cat wouldn't wait for him. How to make Luma fall into a more miserable state is all its source of entertainment. The little guy slipped down the tree familiarly.

"Shintaro, it's time for morning divination."

His father's half-suspicious reminder came from outside the door, and the young man in the green room was shocked. He hurriedly opened the door, and before he came to the living room, he heard the gentle voice of the fortune-telling sister.

"Summer and autumn are transitional seasons. Shouldn't there be some leisure activities on sunny mornings on weekends? In addition to your own plans, there are occasional unexpected little things. Remember to keep a good mood for the day, and good things will happen, especially for Cancers. you."

"Shintaro?"

Seeing his son rushing back to the room after listening to the radio, Midorima's father yelled in confusion. The boy who had already run away naturally did not answer. The doorbell at home suddenly rang. He walked over to open the door, with long black hair The girl immediately bowed down to him respectfully.

"Hello, Uncle, is Xiaozhen there?"

"Uh..." Didn't this kid come in over the balcony every time?

Despite the slander in his heart, the elders are still gentle and gentle with a calm smile.

"Xiaozhen is in his room, you can go there by yourself..."

"Thank you Bo..."

"I'm going out for a..."

The voices of the two stopped one after the other, and Midorima who ran out of the room glared at the girl who probably entered his house from the main entrance for the first time, and the latter shook the things in his hand happily.

"Xiao Zhen, I just found something good downstairs!"

Seeing that what she was waving was exactly what he was about to go downstairs to find, Midorima's expression immediately became very exciting. The father folded his arms around his chest unconsciously watching his son's excitement, and saw his always awkward son insist on He turned his head and snorted.

"Not interested in."

"I knew it would be like this, so I already called and made an appointment with Pickup..."

The hand holding the glasses froze in the air, and Midorima suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

It's like being tricked into eating a moldy biscuit by my cousin a long time ago, it's faint, but it lingers in my mouth for a long time and can't disappear...

The so-called self-inflicted suffering is a beautiful sadness.
