"Prayer---------!!!"

"Pray—!!"

"Mr. Kiori------!!!"

Amidst the tragic shouts of the crowd, a slipper drew a not-so-elegant arc in the air, and hit Kiori directly on the back of the head.

"—!"

Kiori, who was only one step away from falling from the building, fell on the roof like this.

"?!"

Everyone was stunned, and then looked at the person who threw out the slippers—Dongyue who was panting beside Fengdou.

Because the sprained right foot is not convenient to wear other shoes, Dongyue wears slippers when she goes downstairs to buy drinks.Fuyutsuki's first reaction when he saw Qizhi about to jump off the building was to take off the slippers under his feet and throw them in the direction of Qizhi.Unexpectedly, Fuyutsuki's throw was extremely precise, and Kiori, who hadn't eaten normally for several days and hadn't drank water for a whole day, fell to the ground with a single blow.

As for Dongyue, she never expected her reflexes to be so good.At the moment of throwing the slippers, not only the angle was visually checked, but also the hit point of the slippers was visually checked.If the hit was wrong and the slipper hit Kiori's back or legs, Kiori's thin body compared to a man would probably fall directly downstairs.

Moving forward with her sprained right foot, the limping Dongyue had some difficulty walking, but her walking speed was not slow.

As soon as Qizhi sat up from the floor of the roof, Dongyue had already walked in front of him.In the surprised eyes of everyone, Fuyutsuki straddled Kiori's body in front of the Asahina brothers who followed behind him.

Snapped--!

Fuyutsuki raised her hand and slapped Kiori, who was immobilized for a while because of her weight, with all her strength.That crisp voice was especially loud in the night wind.

Having not slapped anyone in the face for a long time, Dongyue made a fist with the hottest pain on her palm, and then gave Qizhi an iron fist.

"doing what……!"

Before Kiori could finish his words, he was punched again on his handsome face, and this punch tore the corner of his dry mouth, causing a trace of blood to flow from the corner of his mouth.

"You're going to die anyway. Then it doesn't matter what happens to your body?"

There was a bone-chilling coldness in Dongyue's voice.

"What is this little pain?"

On that snowy rooftop, Dongyue once shed many tears.Wanting to die, she found that she was so cowardly when she was only one step away from death, so cowardly that she dared not die.If it was Fuyutsuki at that time, seeing Kiori who wanted to commit suicide now, maybe Fuyutsuki at that time could not help but praise Kiori's courage and Kiori's sincere and warm sincerity to Donghua.

(But that's wrong. It's not right.)

After meeting the knight whose greatest wish is to live and be loyal to his master, after meeting the young director who has lived under the shadow of his father since birth but still relies on his own strength to open up his own future, after meeting After that "Ikebukuro is the strongest" who suffers from his own strength and temper, after meeting the demon brothers who are the children of the devil but want to live as humans, after meeting the holy knight who harbored and raised the son of the devil, after meeting Unaccepted by the people of Beijing, the leader of the ghost clan who accepted the curse in order to keep his clan alive, tried to protect the people around him and bring peace to the world after experiencing the sorrow and pain caused by the war. After the White Yaksha and Qiangwei imp, after meeting the Fujin God who only knows how to kill but wants to bring people happiness, and wants to become the God of Fortune... after meeting the one who doesn't know how much it will cost The time also hopes to regenerate the homeland after the black | cat, after meeting an opponent that he may not be able to surpass in his eternal life, and the golden retriever dog who continues to move forward with a shining light, Dongyue is almost in pain Feel the "desire to survive | desire".

(Everyone is eager to live.)

(Everyone is working hard to live...!!)

There are too many beings in this world who want to live and continue to live.There are too many lives who are trying their best to live even in deep pain.Countless beings want to live, very much want to live, want to live with all their strength, want to live without leaving any regrets, want to live as if they are burning until the last energy is exhausted.

(so I won't allow...)

(——abandoning the life that so many people long for without authorization!!!)

Dongyue's anger is not only towards Qizhi in front of her, but also towards her past self who easily thought of ending her life.

"...I-I'm already...too tired..."

Scattered words overflowed from Kiori's lips, and the weak voice made those who heard it unable to restrain themselves from wanting to sympathize with him and pity him.

"...I can't find any... reason to live..."

Hot tears rolled down from the godless eyes.Kiori held Dongyue's right hand that had slapped him and punched him, and begged, "Please let me... free and sleep..."

"Then give me a reason why you can hurt people who care about you at will."

Pulling his trembling right hand from Kiori's hands, Fuyutsuki punched Kiori's face again.But this time, before Fuyutsuki's fist landed on Kiori's face, Fuyutsuki's raised fist had already been grabbed by Tsubaki who rushed forward.

"Teacher-chan! That's enough! Kiori just couldn't think about it for a while—"

"Ms. Hoshino!"

"Leave the next thing to us—"

The voices of Tsubaki and Asahina's brothers sounded one after another, but Dongyue turned a deaf ear.

(if,)

(If only my family were the ones who could spot me...)

(If only my family were the ones who could stop me when I wanted to commit suicide...)

"Why should they bear the grief caused by your selfishness?!"

Dongyue's tightly clenched fists were still trembling after being caught by Tsubaki.

"You don't have to think about anything when you die! But what about your family?! You have to watch you be born and watch you grow up, and then you want them to cook for you after watching you kill yourself in front of them. What?! Have you ever wondered what kind of mood they will use to watch you go?!"

Dongyue didn't want to cry.She didn't even think she had the stance to cry at all.But her tears still rushed out of her eyes.

(Ah, I'm so envious...)

(If anyone could shed a tear over my death, how I'd be—)

"You might see winter flowers! And then?! Do you want your family to cry over the pictures you have left?! You want your family to miss them like you miss winter flowers Is it you?! You want your family to feel the same as you... No! Is it pain above you?!"

Dongyue's anger pierced through the body like a sharp sword, making Qizhi feel the harshness in his heart, but also awakened his original consciousness like waking up from a dream.His whole body trembled like an electric shock, Kiori opened his mouth silently.

"So many people want to survive! Even if it's just for one day! So many people are eager to live longer and longer!! Donghua must also want to live, right?! At the dying moment A moment! Dongyue must also be thinking about surviving! To live with her parents, family, relatives and friends... to meet you again, to fall in love with you for a lifetime!! To go to the ends of the earth with you, right?!"

Fuyutsuki, who was held by Tsubaki, roared sadly, and her tears splashed on Kiori's cheeks.

"What are you who just give up what Donghua desires the most?!... What are you who just give up so many lives that people can't dream of?! You are, you are...!!"

If it survives...

That knight might be able to match his master with the person his master admires?

Maybe that king can save her country?

Maybe the paladin could watch his bloodless sons grow up?

The owner of the master house and the deputy head of the ghost can continue to protect the noisy companions, right?

That god will become a god of good fortune that will never be forgotten, right?

If it survives...

Those children who died before they were born, those children who haven't opened their eyes to see their parents, maybe they can shake their parents' hands?

Those parents who are seriously ill and bedridden may be able to take care of and love their children a little more?

Those who have lived in the hospital for many years and don't know what the outside world looks like may be able to experience the world more?

If it survives...

How many people will smile because of the presence of their loved ones?

How many people will feel happy because of the existence of their loved ones?

"...Death... Can you be worthy of anyone?"

Grabbing Qizhi's collar with her left hand, Dongyue's tears fell down: "Will Donghua be happy when you die? Donghua, your lover, is selfish enough to hurt someone who values ​​you Do you want to accompany her? If you were the one who died at that time, would you want Donghua to abandon all those who valued her and come to you?"

"——————"

Kiori was speechless.It's not that he doesn't know what words to use to refute Dongyue, but that he has forgotten that he can still refute Dongyue.

(Winter Flower——)

She is gentle, she is warm, would she be happy for her own death like that?Would she be so selfish that she would go to accompany her by herself even if she hurt someone who valued her?

"Pray for weaving. 』

(How can it be.)

The soft call of winter flowers seemed to come from my ears again.The slender figure of Donghua seemed to appear in front of her eyes again.This time, Qizhi still can only watch Donghua leave alone with her back turned to herself.

"farewell. 』

This time, Kiori shed tears again.

Tears bursting like a bank seemed to reopen a heavy fog, allowing Kiori to hear the surrounding voices again.

"Qiqi! Mi, Mi will never be self-willed again...! So Qiqi, Qiqi, don't leave Mi, okay? Qiqi——"

Ya hugged Kiori's arm and cried pitifully.

"To be honest, I just want to beat you bastard right now!"

Gritting his teeth, Yusuke's eyes were red.

"If you want to beat me, please let me beat you first."

You Jing who spoke seemed calm, but his reddish eye sockets and the trill in his voice had already exposed his true mood.

"Looks like you need to find a rope to tie someone up."

"I agree."

The person who made the ghostly statement was none other than Azusa, who has always been a prudent gentleman.Tsubaki is naturally the one who agrees with Azusa.

"Mr. Kiori...!"

Ema had been crying for a long time, but she was still afraid.

"I don't want to do things for my younger brother at this age..."

He pretended to smile lightly, but his face was still pale.

"Tsk."

Feng Dou flicked his tongue to the crowd, and there was still a faint sparkle in the corner of his eyes.

"Pray for weaving,"

Yachen rarely lowered his face, he slapped Qizhi on the right cheek with a little sullen expression on his face.

"Don't waste your life in vain."

Yachen didn't criticize Qizhi any more, he just tremblingly put down the hand that slapped his younger brother not so hard, and then pressed his younger brother's shoulder with that trembling hand.

"Fortunately...you didn't...otherwise, I—"

Qizhi couldn't see the expression on the face of Yachen who lowered his head, but Yachen's hoarse voice had told him everything.

He glanced at the faces of the people around him, and at the other end of the rooftop where Hikari, Zao, Lucu, and Subaru were running towards us one after the other, apparently in a hurry, and even Julie the squirrel was there.

(...winter flowers.)

Calling Fuyuka's name again in her heart, Kiori made a decision.

(Sorry, I can't get to you. Thank you, I love you, and—)

Kiori, who was left alone by Donghua, turned around and found that there were so many people behind him waiting for him to discover their existence.

(farewell.)

This time, Kiori was finally able to take a step towards the people who had waited for him for a long time and silently guarded him for a long time.
