[Comprehensive] Escape from shame is useless

White top, sea blue skirt, blue bow tie representing the first grade, and finally tidying up in front of the mirror.

"Jasmine too, let's go?"

"I am coming!"

Picking up the tennis racket and the piano case, she ran towards Yuno who was waiting for her at the entrance, stepping on the cool summer wind.

"I'm Kuroki Jasmine, I took a leave of absence last semester due to physical reasons, and today I'm officially back from recovery. Please take care of me as an ordinary transfer student. My hobbies are tennis and violin, and my ideal in life is..."

Under the curious eyes of the whole class, Jasmine also took a deep breath, and smiled shyly but frankly amidst the chirping of cicadas in midsummer.

"Become a violinist."

The day when you say this as a matter of course, will not cause ridicule, will not cause disaster, will not bring any misfortune, has finally come.

On this day, Kuroki Jasmine also officially became a student of Class 3, Grade [-], Xing Zuo General Subject.

A big step towards her brilliant dream.

"I always feel like a familiar scene. Yuno took me across the campus to find the head of the tennis club."

After school, I took the club application form and walked side by side with Yuno on the boulevard. Many students I didn't know along the way would still greet Yuno respectfully.Except that the school uniform on his body has changed, it seems to be no different from walking on the campus of Lihai University.

"No matter where it is, Yuno is still so powerful."

Not only broke the record for the highest score in the school entrance examination as a general subject, but also won the approval of 80% of the students in the school including the music subject in just one month, successfully completed the re-election of the student union, and became the president throne.

"Of course." She brushed her hair back confidently, "If that kid can do it, why can't I do it? The mere position of student council president is only something I don't want, and there is nothing I can't get. "

"Yes, my wife is the best!" Really, you have to compare with Zheng Jun in everything, Yuno really refuses to admit defeat.

There are not many people in the tennis club of Xingzuo, and there are no more than 20 people in total, so there is no distinction between men and women, and everyone is active in the same club.Unlike other schools, except for the occasional football team that sends teams to participate in competitions, most of the sports clubs in Xingzuo are just for hobbies, and everyone is happy to play like a house.

"Student Kuroki, do you really not mind a club like ours?" Holding her application form for membership, the minister Chi Yelan had a headache.

Maybe other people don't know, but for him who pays attention to the tennis world in middle school, he is very clear about the meaning of the name Kuroki Jasmine.It is really too violent to let this person who defeated the strongest U17 Japanese female player Miwa Kanai last year in such a club.

"It's okay, it's better this way. Actually..."

After she explained her reason for choosing Xing Zuo and her plan to spend most of her time on the violin, Chino finally accepted her application with peace of mind.

"Our club has regular activities every Monday and Thursday afternoon. There are no morning training and evening training, and it doesn't take up weekend time. Of course, if you want to play tennis, you are welcome to come anytime. Then Kuroki, welcome to join the Star Tennis Club."

"Yes, please teach me more in the future, Minister Chino!"

She always felt that everything was going smoothly in the direction she wanted.

After successfully finding the teacher to apply for the permission to use the practice room, he sent off the student council president who had to deal with a lot of affairs, and Jasmine also came to the practice tower alone.

"There are still 5 minutes until 2 o'clock, is it almost? No. 036..."

Xingzuo's practice tower is open all day, whether you want to use it during lunch break or after school, or even during class time, as long as you don't worry about absenteeism affecting attendance.Students' applications start at least half an hour, and there is no upper limit.In other words, as long as your physical and mental strength persist, you can use it until the school closes at 8 pm.

As expected of high school, the school leaving time is two hours longer than that of junior high school.

"Number 036, ah, this is—"

Before he finished speaking, the door of the practice room was pushed open from the inside, and a black-haired, red-eyed girl from the music department came out carrying a piano case and lowering her head, muttering something.The moment he realized that there was someone else in front of him, and raised his head——

The piano case in his hand fell to the ground with a bang.

But she didn't notice it, she just stared blankly at Jasmine, without saying a word but her eyes became more and more eager.

"That, that..." Although Chao Yiqin was not broken, the presence and temperature of the other party's sight was too high. Infected by this weird atmosphere, she took a step back subconsciously.And I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that this person looks familiar?

"Ah! I, I, my that, I, ah, my four, I am, that, I..." The girl regained her senses because of her estranged retreat, and suddenly became incoherent, as if she was also very concerned about her behavior at the moment. Desperate, seeing that his face was flushed and tears were about to fall, but he still couldn't finish the sentence smoothly.

"Uh, don't be in a hurry, come on, take a deep breath first... and then exhale..." After the other party did what she said, Jasmine came closer and asked, "How is it, is it better?"

"Yes, for you, oh no, for your inconvenience!" The girl bowed at 90 degrees, and when she raised her face, the golden treble clef clip holding her bangs reflected a dazzling light.She was still blushing, clutching the hem of the skirt with both hands nervously, and tremblingly said to Jasmine: "I am Airi Ueno from Class 1B, and Jasmine Kuroki, it's my honor to meet you for the first time, Very, very happy!"

grown ups?I actually have a day when I am called an adult... My mood is so complicated!

Hey, wait, what did she just say her name is?Ueno...Airi?Isn't that the name-

"Ueno-san, are you also a Teiko graduate?"

"Yes!"

In the dry practice room, the sound of the piano flows quietly.

Jasmine also closed her eyes, and she could also imagine the appearance of the strings shining golden in the sun, and she could also feel the slight vibrations when the bow hair brushed against the strings.Then the vibration was transmitted to the body of the piano, resonated, and transformed into melodious music, and then along her body, spread to every corner of her body, from hair tips to fingertips, from eardrum to blood, flowing fine and soft love language.

But this sense of happiness suddenly shattered in the next second, and when the bow was lowered, the piano suddenly made a piercing sound.

Jasmine also lowered her bow, and sighed silently as she looked at the finger that was obediently resting on the strings but suddenly became uncontrollable.

Saying that the medicine will not affect the body is really just a reassurance for her.I don't know if Dr. Luma lied to her when she said that it will be better after a while.But even if there is really no way to recover, she can only continue to pull it on.If it doesn't work for a month, it will be a year, and if it doesn't work for a year, it will be ten years, until her hands are obedient again.Just like what I said to Tsukimi Riha at the beginning——

[For people like us, maybe everything is lacking, the only thing that is not lacking is a lifetime of time. 】

Fortunately, that Ueno classmate didn't agree to her request to visit her practice just now. Now her violin is really not in a state that can be played for others to listen to.

In the practice room, the sound of the piano sounded again, and the sound was still as gentle as before, as if the terrible harsh noise had never appeared before.Jasmine, who was immersed in the music again, didn't know that the person she thought had left was sitting on the grass outside the window, listening to her music and crying quietly.

"Ueno-san, what are you doing here?"

At this moment, another person appeared on the lawn outside the practice room.The red-haired girl was wearing a general department uniform and walked over with a piano case.When he got closer, he noticed the tears on Ueno's face that he hadn't had time to wipe away, so he quickened his pace in surprise.

"What's the matter with you, isn't there something--um!"

Then Ueno, who reacted, covered his mouth and dragged him down.

"Keep your voice down! Don't disturb the people inside practicing!"

the people inside?Ah, I seem to have seen just now that the people inside are also wearing the uniforms of the general department.In this school, besides myself and Tsuchiura-kun, did other children from general subjects use the practice room?

She rushed to Ueno and nodded, and Ueno heaved a sigh of relief and took his hand away.

"Actually, I came here just now because I was attracted by the sound of the piano." She sat down beside Ueno and said in a low voice.

Gentle and clear, the melody is so beautiful that people can forget their troubles. It seems that every note is shining, and every phrase is pouring out words of love.She didn't know about the technical issues, but she could feel the love from the heart exactly, it was indeed so warm that people couldn't help but wet their eyes.

"It's the first time I've heard such a beautiful piano sound and such a warm "Song of the G String"..."

—It would be better if it didn't end abruptly at the climax.

It was the first time that she was so eager to listen to the whole song, it was as bad as letting her take a bite of a delicacy she had never tasted before, but not letting her finish it.So I walked this way unconsciously, wanting to continue listening.

"Ah, it stopped again." This time it stopped at the penultimate bar, which was slightly better than the first time.

"It'll be fine, the fairy of music will definitely bless her..." The people around her sighed in a very soft voice, like praying or prophesying.She turned her head curiously when she heard the words. Under the sun, the black-haired girl closed her eyes piously, put her hands on her chest, and poured out her wishes to the legendary fairy that might exist on this campus.

Yes, such beautiful music, if Lily hears it, she will be very happy.

After the melody in the practice room stopped for the third time, Ueno stood up while leaning on the wall, and held out his hand to her:

"Let's go, Hino-senpai."

"But—" She still wanted to hear it, at least the whole song.

Hino looked reluctantly at the glass window beside him, the girl in the room turned her back to this side, her brown hair was incredibly soft in the sunlight.

"I want to listen to it in the future. There will be opportunities." Presumably Master Heimu doesn't want people to hear such half-toned music, otherwise how could she, who has always been easy to talk, refuse her request to visit just now.

"Does Ueno know her? It's a pity that a performer like her failed to participate in the school music competition..."

The so-called intramural music competition was a music competition held by Xingzao last semester.This competition is different from other competitions in that no musical instruments are distinguished, and all participants compete on the same stage, playing self-selected repertoires with the same theme.The most special thing is probably the reason for the start of the competition - when there are students in the school who can see the elf of music, the elf Lily will ring the big bell in the forest square, which is the signal to start the competition.

Kahoko Hino, from Class 2, Year [-] of General Studies, is the only person in this school who can see elves besides the principal.

"A person who plays the violin very well? A first-year general subject?"

As the sun was setting, Hino was carrying the piano case and walking side by side with the blue-haired boy in the uniform of the music department on the way out of school.

"Well, her piano sound is very beautiful! How should I put it..." She carefully recalled the feeling at that time, and described it very vaguely, "It's like the warm sun in winter, the drizzle in spring, hazy but Very real beauty."

"...I don't understand what you're talking about, Hino."

"Ahaha, sure enough... But I don't know much about technology, and I can't explain it in detail." Hino scratched his face in embarrassment, and then suddenly remembered something, and said, "Ah yes. Yes, Ueno-san said that person is her dream object! I remember the name—”

"Ueno, she said that?"

Airi Ueno, the principal of the Star Orchestra, one of the participants of the school music competition, but because the time collided with the foreign concert that he had already scheduled to attend, he only participated in the first competition and then withdrew from the competition up.But even if it was just a short performance, her impressive playing skills and strong and mature emotional expressions have been unforgettable to all of their competitors.

The person whom Airi Ueno, who has already started to make a name for herself in the world, yearns for?Or peers?If such a person really existed and also studied at Xingzuo, how could no one notice it for a whole semester?

Hard to imagine.

Ultimately, this is the only conclusion to be drawn.

"Yes, it's Kuroki, and the name is Kuroki Jasmine. Although I haven't seen the face, but just hearing the name is great, Tsukimori-kun, don't you—huh? Tsukimori-kun?"

After walking a few steps, Hino realized that the person walking side by side had already stopped, covered half of his face with one hand, and repeated what she had just said in shock:

"Heimu... Jasmine also...?"

That is a name that exists deep in memory.I thought it would slowly fade away with time, just like other things that have always been, crushed by the giant teeth called time, and become garbage that no longer occupies memory space.

But it wasn't until the moment when she was mentioned by Xiang Suizi that he realized how deeply he remembered the name, the person, and the music she played.So much so that I can still clearly recall every time she plucked the strings seven years ago, the expression on her face every time she danced the bow, the emotions expressed by every note, every phrase, and——

Her fingertips were stained red with blood.

That Paganini in the Heisei era was hailed by his parents as an angel of music, but in the end he was dragged into hell by the world as the dawn star.

The author has something to say: It is now September, the second semester, and Jasmine also took a whole semester vacation.

I'm actually a little tangled, because Ji You said that A Zheng and Jasmine are also dating and I can finish it.

I haven't finished writing the things I want to write... For example, the story of Yuno, the story of Jasmine's return to the stage, the story of those who bullied Jasmine in the music competition, etc...

Do you still want to watch it?Uneasy 00
