I watch them leave.

Ancheng hugged the village, and Kato Reika followed them quickly, as if they would be swallowed by a monster if they stayed a second longer.

The village has completely lost control over its body, limp like a bug.If An Cheng carried it on his back, he would just hit the ground hard like an apple falling in accordance with the principle of gravity.

In order to get away from me and Dazai quickly, Ancheng directly hugged the village, two short men of about the same height piled on top of each other, feeling inexplicably happy.

"Mr. Dazai, I'm leaving first." I waved my hand and said goodbye to Dazai. Although I had a little fun, Dazai's super-class behavior made me feel like I was hollowed out. It really takes a price to make trouble. I can't afford it. rise.

Dazai took out a dagger from somewhere and handed it to me, smiling mysteriously: "Little Ayako, save your strength."

"……Oh."

So after finishing the conversation, the eldest lady who can clean up her debut and the loyal dog's subordinates parted ways.

Under the shadow of whirling trees, I sat on a bench in a grove.A sense of loneliness that I hadn't shown all this time suddenly emerged, biting my heart, and flowing through the arteries all over my body.

The sun was already in the west, and the entire campus was so quiet that he could only feel his own existence.The hidden corners of the campus have been searched, and the fragmentary clues can be integrated with only one thread.

The novelty of this place is all gone now, and I want to go home and sit quietly with a paintbrush for a day.

Will someone notice that I'm missing? Is the lily in the vase still blooming?

I think it's all negative.Ugh, that's terrible.

"Crack."

The soles of the shoes stepped on the leaves and the leaves made a crisp sound.

Facing the light, I narrowed my eyes slightly: "It's you, Xue Nai."

"..."

Tanaka Yukina sat beside me quietly, not speaking.

When I didn't get a response, I turned around naturally, took a deep breath, and relaxed my body against the back of the chair.

Tanaka Yukina's back is straight, her side face reflects a few fine specks of light leaking from the leaves, her overly white skin seems to be stained with pink, her delicate features, at this angle, are almost blurred with the picture in my memory faces overlap.

When I was young, I loved to play cats and dogs, and I often played around wildly. At that time, all worries were still far away from me. I wanted everything and liked everything.

When I first saw Tanaka Yukina, I was full of fear, and I didn't look at her carefully when I saw her again. Now it seems...

"Xue Nai gave me a feeling... I saw you somewhere a long time ago, like in a dream." I said something like a little boy approaching a girl, and I blinked my eyes in embarrassment after I said it, and ended sit up.

Tanaka Yukina looked at me and blinked, "Little Ayako, very cute."

Little me?There seems to be a blurry picture flashing in my mind.

At that time, I was tired from playing, so I raised my head and looked at my elder sister who was quietly watching me gossip. With a childlike childishness, I asked in a childlike voice: "Sister, Mom said she was going to become a lily. In another place, will I also become a lily in the future?"

"...No, Ayako will grow up and protect her mother who has become Lily."

Memory is really a magical thing, it is buried by fine sand, sealed in the depths of time, and sometimes it will show its feet inadvertently, as clear as yesterday.

I see, she is Tanaka Yukina.Appeared in front of my little me by chance, and after disappearing, I asked all the adults: Oh, there is no such person, is Ayako the older sister I met in my dream?

Time and memory are intertwined. Gradually, when I occasionally think of it, I only feel it is a blurred dream after a nap.

After the fog was cleared, the clues shone with golden light, and I listened intently.

"I didn't expect Ayako to come here," Tanaka Yukina showed a strange smile, with soothing brows and eyes. "Help her, I'll take you home."

"She means...Miss Ghost?" My heart was pounding, as if I heard the blood pumping.

"Miss Ghost?" Tanaka Xue Nai spoke extremely slowly, but she enunciated clearly, earnestly and cutely. "She has a nice name—Dong Chuan Xun."

I silently recited the name of Miss Ghost, and nodded.

"Xun's family background is not very good, but she is optimistic, cheerful and serious in her studies. She is expected to be admitted to the best high school in the local area. Everything is slowly getting better. Xun is very content."

"Until the third year of middle school, Xun's original Japanese history teacher was pregnant and went home for vacation, and the new teacher Shirota Hiroo was transferred to their class."

"This is the beginning of all nightmares..." Tanaka Xuenai paused, as if thinking about what to say next.

"...It's the pervert Shirota Hiroo. After being hurt by him, I felt that I was a shame to my parents. I hanged myself in the dormitory when I couldn't think about it for a while. Now that I think about it, it's really stupid to leave my parents because of this kind of person!" Tanaka Yuki Nai's expression suddenly became vivid, and she smiled at me with a relaxed tone. "You really scared me last night!"

"Xun...I'm sorry." I apologized not because I frightened her, but because I suddenly wanted to say "I'm sorry" to her.

"What, don't worry about such trivial things."

Tanaka Yukina's face of Xun's expression disappeared, she slowly blinked and continued: "Ayako knows my story, I went back to the dormitory after the incident, the world was empty, I thought I just need to summon the pen fairy, put me Take it away so you don’t have to face all of this.”

My throat seemed to be choked, and I stared at her blankly.

"I told Bixian, save me, take me away." She smiled, "So Xun came, that idiot told me that death is the most worthless thing, so she used all her strength to take me away." I hid."

"I know what the main line is to survive for seven days, and the branch line is to fulfill the wish of the pen fairy. They come and go in batches, die and become disabled, and the time is constantly reset. Different memories are stuffed into their minds. In the end, I was the only one who remembered."

"Even if it is Xun, this memory will disappear after the time is reset. Maybe I, who have lost my sense of existence, even ignore time."

Tanaka Yukina raised her head, and it was only when I faced the light that I could see clearly that her eyes were not pure black, but vivid dark brown, full of lingering water waves and slight regret.

I lowered my head uncomfortably, and unconsciously grabbed my thumb with my index finger, "...Why did Xue Nai know me when I was a child, we are obviously about the same age."

"I guess...it's the difference in the world line," Tanaka Yukina's eyes were in a trance, "I am not in the same world as Ayako. When Ayako helps Kaoru to fulfill her wish, the cycle will be broken, and after time flows again, Ayako will be a complete outsider. will go back."

My eyes were staring at me, the matter was complicated but I grasped the point: I can say goodbye to this place after fulfilling Xun’s wish, and everything will return to a peaceful daily life.

"I understand, I will try my best." With a heavy heart, I felt extremely ecstatic to be able to go home, but also felt ashamed of my joy, taking advantage of Xun's wish... I am so despicable.

Tanaka Yukina held my shoulders, her voice neither happy nor sad: "If it wasn't for Ayako, there would be other people. Compared with those wicked people who were alive, Ayako's help will make Xun happier."

"…yes."

I asked myself in a small voice, is that so?

Tanaka Yukina left.

From the initial fear and bewilderment, to the later carelessness, and now the stability.

I looked up, looked at the dim yellow and chaotic colors of the world through the gaps between the layers of leaves, and fell into a dazed fantasy.

The guess that the pen fairy is the female ghost has been confirmed, and everything will be clear from now on, and it will be over soon if there is no accident.

The main purpose of letting Kato Reika and the three of them go to "Pen Fairy" is to distract them. After understanding what they need, there is no need for them to follow behind as an unstable factor.

After sorting out my thoughts, I stood up. After sitting for a long time, I suddenly stood up and a gray snowflake appeared in front of my eyes. I pressed my temples and waited quietly for the confused vision to disappear.

The leaves are rustling, and the mighty wind knows it's time to get down to business.
