[Comprehensive] Escape from shame is useless

It was the first time in years that I felt so refreshed.

Hearty and exhausted, physical fatigue and spiritual satisfaction filled her whole body, which made her emptied her brain, and she could only passively let this feeling wash over her, and could not raise a little bit of resistance.

The last bit of reason left made Jasmine also stand up unsteadily, and left the auditorium before everyone else had recovered, and returned to the student union room of the club building, took off her wig, and changed into a dress , put on a school uniform shirt.In the end, I still couldn't persist until I took off the contact lenses, so I collapsed on the sofa from exhaustion.

Dimly, she realized something.Whether it was the people who played with her today or the people who heard her music, no one showed any pain.

Her music doesn't necessarily bring people pain...

Right?

After Akashi opened the door with the key, what he saw was that Jasmine was also dead asleep on the sofa.She was really tired, she didn't even wear knee socks, she was lying on her bare legs, and the top two buttons of her shirt collar hadn't been buttoned in time, revealing her slender collarbone and fair skin.

Most importantly, even in her sleep, she still showed such a calm and happy smile.

Are you happy?But it's just a school's cultural festival, such a simple stage can make you so happy.

It's as satisfying as ever.

Akashi sat down beside Jasmine, brushed the strands of hair from her cheeks, lightly touched her still warm skin with his fingertips, and spoke in a voice that would not wake her up:

"If you are satisfied with just this, I will be very troubled. This is just the beginning, there are more and bigger stages waiting for you, and more people are waiting for your comeback."

"Hmm..." Feeling uncomfortable on her face, Jasmine also slapped his hands away, turned around and continued to sleep, with her left hand hanging in front of him like that.

Jasmine's hands are delicate and small, but the knuckles are very long, and the bones are so soft that it seems that it is not enough to grasp it, and it seems that it will break if only a little effort is used.But recalling the decisiveness with which her fingertips pressed down on the strings, and the strength with which the strings seemed to be broken when she swung the bow, one can't help but be puzzled.

Where did she get the strength to support such a high-intensity performance?

For so many years, he always pays attention to this strange question inexplicably when listening to her playing the piano.

Akashi put Jasmine's hand back on the sofa, and lightly touched the palm of her left hand with his fingers.The tactile sensation is the same as in memory, with a little effort, a small dimple can be pressed down.The fingertips slowly slid across her fingertips to feel the direction of her palm lines and the depressions of each finger crevice, like some kind of endless game that made him happy.Finally, along the fingertips outward, along the side of the ring finger, touching the full callus on her fingertips.

Jasmine's fingers were pressed straight and she made an uncomfortable grunt, trying to pull it away but was caught by Akashi.He inserted five fingers into the girl's fingertips with his backhand, clasped the back of her hand and raised the whole hand, closed his eyes and kissed every fingertip of her devoutly.

"Tell me, if she knows that you have done such a perverted thing, will she still trust you as she does now?"

At the door, my wife Yuno quietly appeared, sneering with a cold face.

Unwaveringly, Akashi kissed the back of Jasmine's hand one last time, and put her hand back.Then he took off his coat and put it on the girl before walking out of the room first.Yuno glanced at the girl's satisfied sleeping face, and the cold eyes showed a little warmth, and then closed the door lightly.

"Thanks to your assistance for this plan, my wife." Akashi loosened his tie and leaned against the desk.With words of thanks in his mouth, his face was as arrogant as ever.

"Oh," Yunaipi replied with a half-smile, "I want to emphasize again, I will only help you this time."

"It's enough." He smiled resolutely, "Through this experiment, I basically know everything I want to know. What happens after this has nothing to do with you. You'd better not hinder me."

"I'm not interested in you, Akashi Seijuro, but the matter with Jasmine, no matter how big or small, is related to me." Yuno took a step closer, "I don't care what you plan to do, if it hurts her, I will definitely do anything The price will stop you, too."

Akashi smiled, but said nothing.Walking to the window, looking at the people leaving in twos and threes near the school gate, he said pointedly:

"In this world, everyone needs to be where he should be. For students, go to school when they should go to school, leave school when they should leave school, read when they should study, eat when they should eat, Sleep when you should be sleeping. You, me, and Jasmine are all the same, and we all have to do what we should do."

"You are the only direct heir of my wife's family. With your character, even if you are a woman, you will not give up the position of head of the family to the person who separates the family. In the future, you will definitely need to recruit a son-in-law to consolidate your position."

Although he was right, Yuno was upset and wanted to stab him: "So, even if you play basketball well now, you haven't considered the development of the NBA at all?"

Unfortunately, Akashi never wavered on this point.He never denies the importance of basketball to him, but it's not like Jasmine also does music, he can't live without it.He nodded of course, "Yes."

"Since you understand that talent is not the only criterion for determining the future, why do you insist that Jasmine must also become a musician?" She couldn't understand this from beginning to end.

"Couldn't she be a professional tennis player? I heard that Ms. Kanai Miwa really wants to bring her into the professional tennis."

If we only talk about talent, Jasmine is also talented in violin, tennis, and even cooking. Why does Akashi completely ignore other possibilities and only want her to become a musician?

Miu Kanai could understand that she wanted Jasmine to join the professional net. After all, she was a rare tennis player herself, so she naturally hoped that her friends who were on par with her would be able to reach the top with her.

But Akashi is different.What on earth is he thinking?

"Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second." He smiled contemptuously, as if he didn't pay attention to Miu Kanai, "Jasmine also has no obsession with winning or losing, so Jin Jing can't do it."

"You didn't answer my question, Akashi, why are you a musician?"

He avoided this question, so does it mean that there is something inside that she doesn't know?

It was Akashi who experienced what happened back then with Jasmine, and it was Akashi who fully understood her past.She only had some indirect knowledge of that matter, and it was inevitable that she would make mistakes in judgment.It's about Jasmine's future, and she has to weigh every penny.

However, things are not as she thought.

"Because this is the right way she should go." Akashi said firmly.

After waiting for a few more seconds, there was still no further text, and Yuno finally realized that he had finished answering.

"That's it?" What the hell?

"Then what else do you want to hear?" Akashi asked back, with an attitude of course, as if what he just said was "1+1=2", a truth that doesn't need to be repeated at all.

Yuno felt that she was going crazy, why didn't this person understand?

"The reason, why do you think her becoming a musician is the right way."

"Because I am Akashi Seijuro, my choice has never been wrong, and my words represent correctness. Besides, hasn't today's incident proved that my choice is correct?"

It's fine if he doesn't mention it, but when he mentions it, Yuno wants to strangle him to death.

"By luck that may only happen once?"

"This is not luck, but the result of the plan."

As early as two months ago, he had agreed with Miki Kiyoshi of the orchestra department that he would play with Jasmine this time at the Teiko Festival.Ueno Airi is also very similar to Jasmine in terms of height and eyes, so as a shadow dancer, she participated in the orchestra during the first practice period.

Three days ago, Ueno Airi broke up with her boyfriend who had already cheated on her publicly, creating the illusion that she was hurt by love, paving the way for her sudden disappearance today.In fact, Ueno Airi never showed up at school on Teiko Matsuri, but stayed at home, waiting to watch Miki Kiyoyoshi's live broadcast.

As for Yuno, she received a custom-made wig and colored contact lenses yesterday, trying to look exactly like Ueno Airi.It was also on the day of the Teiko Festival that she encouraged Jasmine to pretend to be Ueno Airi, and let her appear in Teiko with black hair and red eyes.

But according to the original plan, she needed Jasmine to bring the violin as well.But in the actual operation process, Yuno found that persuading her to carry the violin on her back on the way to the Teiko Festival is too far-fetched, and it is easy to expose the plan.In the end, Akashi temporarily brought the "Viotti" at home for Jasmine to use.

Three hours before the performance, Miki Kiyoshi, who had been in charge of contacting Ueno Airi, suddenly told the orchestra members that Ueno Airi was missing, and everyone would naturally take the initiative to look for her.At this time, the only thing that can be found in Teiko is Kuroki Jasmine who looks almost exactly like Ueno Airi while wearing a mask.

According to her weakness of reflex arc length and her curiosity about "playing with Akashi Seijuro", she will inevitably be brought into the music classroom and brought to Akashi because she can't refute in time.Even if she had time to refute, they also had a backup plan, so that she could finally participate in the name of Ueno Airi, and the worst case was just to let the band members know this fact.

One ring after another, the joint efforts of the four made Kuroki Jasmine and Akashi Seijuro play with the orchestra at the Teiko Festival, which became a "established future" that cannot be changed.This plan cannot be summed up in terms of luck.

If one had to talk about uncertain factors, it would be whether Jasmine's self-awareness was able to bypass the terrible curse that had entangled her body for so many years in the name of Ueno Airi.At this point, he is only [-]% sure.

But even if it's only [-]%, he has to bet this time.

"I succeeded, my wife, and it proves me right."

As soon as the voice fell, the room fell into an eerie silence.

After a while, Yuno took a deep breath and kept telling himself that this guy was like this, and if he got angry with him, he would lose.But--

"I don't know, didn't you know beforehand? She almost fell ill when she was backstage just now!"

As one of the participants in the plan, she has been watching Jasmine secretly from the side all the time.Because she has been watching, she is so angry at this moment!This person, the proposer of this plan, actually concealed the most important part of the whole plan!

She had misunderstood it all along. It wasn't that Jasmine didn't want to play in front of others, but that she would get sick if she played in front of others!

But knowing this, he still proposed such a plan!

What for?Is it really for Jasmine?

What the hell was that dream that she would rather risk her falling ill to realize?

"Do you really know what you are doing? Akashi Seijuro!" Yuno clenched his fists and asked.

"I don't understand why you are angry, my wife Yuno. According to my estimation, Jasmine will not collapse so easily. Facts have proved that she did not really fall ill, did she?"

"Why not? Not everyone is like you, she is a human, not a machine! What if it really breaks down?"

"If that's the case, I also have my solution, and you don't need to worry about it."

No matter how impeccably and confidently he spoke, Yuno was not entangled by his logic.

"Scheme plan, plan plan, is there nothing else in your mind except these cold things?" She even felt that she was not talking to a living person at all, but a computer, just covered with a layer of human It's just skin.

"For example?" Akashi raised his eyebrows, unable to sort out the central idea of ​​her words.

"For example, Jasmine's mood! Have you considered it?" As her friend, shouldn't this be their top priority?

"Didn't you agree to cooperate with my plan because you knew she wanted to play with the orchestra? You forgot?" Isn't this called consideration?All of what he did was not just looking for something to do on a whim, because he knew and was sure what Jasmine also needed.

"These are two things!" Such an obvious question, why did she need to say it so bluntly? "What I'm talking about is that Jasmine doesn't want to perform on stage at all. Why don't you understand?"

"She doesn't want to go on stage, it's just an illusion caused by illness." Without this illness, she would not be what she is now, and she would never be timid about performing on stage.He knew her better than anyone, including Jasmine herself, and she loved the stage.

"PTSD is a problem of mood!" If it's not a cold or fever, but if you just take a medicine and you can get better, what do you need a psychiatrist for? !

"As for mental illness, I have more say than you, my wife." Akashi didn't care about using his case as a bargaining chip, as long as he could make his words more convincing.Mood problem?Does it help to solve the current problem?If not, it is a meaningless distractor.

"Indulging in such innocent emotions will only make people weak, and it will not help in the treatment of the disease. She just needs to keep moving forward. Throw away those meaningless so-called 'moods'."

"What if she doesn't want to move forward?" Yuno asked, this is the point of this question! "Anyway, PTSD will not have any major impact on life. I know she doesn't want to face it, why do you have to force her to face it? What's wrong with staying where you are, why do you have to force her to move forward? Is it gone? Can she not live on the road of music?"

"The one who doesn't understand anything is you, my wife." Akashi suppressed his smile and raised his right hand in front of her, "As early as 7 years ago, the moment she handed her violin to me, she has The choice is also in my hands."

"now I understand."

She was too naive, thinking that Akashi, like her, was in love with Jasmine, and all actions were based on Jasmine's wishes.But the reality is not like this. What he cares about and what he loves is not so much Jasmine herself, but Jasmine's radiant piano sound.As long as the sound of the piano can resound throughout the world, it doesn't matter whether she is happy or not.

Now he is simply confusing his own thoughts with Jasmine's own wishes, forcibly legitimizing the process of realizing his selfish desires, and attaching a banner that is for Jasmine's sake.

No matter how plausible the words are, the fundamentals are crooked, and they are nothing but sophistry.

Who is this kidding?Who is this trying to deceive?

Who can be fooled?

"The reason why I agreed to this plan is because Jasmine also said that she wanted to cooperate with the orchestra once." At this time, Akashi gave this opportunity, and relying on this consensus, she agreed to this plan.

"But that's all. Her illness doesn't allow her to go any further. This has nothing to do with our wishes, it's her own will."

"PTSD is treatable, and this experiment is a good proof." He retorted calmly, "Don't you want her to recover?"

"If the treatment process will bring her pain, I would rather she never be cured."

Is this bad now?The environment carefully screened by them is clean, pure, without any impurities from classmates and friends.Living in such a "sterile" environment, doesn't Jasmine also live happily every day?

Why do you have to force her to recall the past that she doesn't want to remember?

"You are avoiding the problem, my wife." She didn't have this kind of character originally, but she was extraordinarily indecisive when it came to matters involving Jasmine.

"Only when this disease is cured can she come out completely and regain the ability to choose her own life."

"Hmph, that sounds nice, didn't you just say that the choice is in your hands?" Yuno sneered.

Akashi was not annoyed, and said lightly: "At that time, she will understand that my arrangement is the most suitable future for her."

Going around, didn't she end up wanting to control her life?

This guy is such a pathetic paranoid.

"Although I don't agree with your motives, it's not impossible for me to assist you in the treatment of PTSD. But I have one condition—" Yuno raised the corners of her mouth maliciously, and said with a smile, "Please treat Akashi-sama first." Get rid of your schizophrenia. Otherwise, what you say will not be convincing."

Before Akashi could say anything, she spread her hands and sighed pitifully:

"But it's a pity that people like you who don't understand people's hearts probably won't have this possibility in this life."

"It's not good for you to provoke me, my wife." Akashi narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Don't forget your identity."

"...my identity?"

Yuno was shocked.

Her identity?What could she be?Isn't it Jasmine's friend, otherwise what else could it be?

What does Akashi mean by that?threaten her?Use the Akashi family to suppress her?

Yuno grabbed his collar, so fast that Akashi couldn't even react.

"What identity am I? What identity are you talking to me with? Akashi Seijuro, you'd better think clearly. Think clearly before talking." Now there are only the two of them here. In terms of combat effectiveness, my wife Yuno can beat me ten seconds later. Akashi Seijuro.

threaten her?Are you out of your mind?

He was silent for two seconds, patted her hand away, and straightened his collar.

"In short, there is no room for compromise in this matter."

He seemed to regain his composure.

Yes, re.

But this does not mean that he discovered his problem, it just returned to the original appearance disguised by layers of calmness and rationality.

He could realize how meaningless his attempt to threaten Yuno was, and he could also realize that he was angry because he couldn't convince Yuno with logic.

But he probably couldn't figure out what he was missing.Just like how even if he calmed down, he still couldn't figure it out, why he still prepared a backup plan when he clearly believed that Jasmine would not get sick during this performance.Regardless of whether the so-called solution is useful or not, its existence is simply unnecessary, isn't it?

Otherwise, he would not be in the current state of split personality.

The anger just now dissipated, and instead, Yuno developed a subtle sympathy for him.But she quickly extinguished this "weak emotion".After all, "indulging in such naive emotions will only make people weak", he is an enemy, I sympathize with what he does, hehe.

"Ah, it's the same for me."

You are bound to lose.

Because Akashi Seijuro, you don't understand people's hearts at all.

The author has something to say: Yuno: You don't understand people's hearts.

Dumb Hairy King: Huh?I always feel like someone is calling me...?

Tristan: It's all my fault_(:з」∠)_
