Touched by a ghost, I choose death

"The list of winners for the piano group will be announced below. The winner of the gold medal is - Seijuro Akashi."

There was no joy of winning the award at all on the boy's immature face, as indifferent as if this No. 1 was a matter of course, he took the award certificate and bowed to the award presenter.

"Congratulations, Akashi-kun." Nanaya standing aside said to him with a half-smile.

She ranked second with a gap of a few tenths, and holding the silver medal in the competition should have been a happy thing, but she felt uncomfortable at all.

In fact, she is not a competitive girl, nor does she have the life principle of "be the first in everything".It's just that the piano is an instrument that she has been in contact with since she was very young, and she has persisted for so many years. From the beginning, she nervously played the wrong one on stage, and later won the gold medal in the piano group of the children's group in various competitions.

As a result, Akashi Seijuro came out halfway.

But man is a very strange animal, and the person who gets your approval the fastest is often your competitor.

The same is true for Qiye. At first she felt sad that he "took away" her first place, but she knew that everything was based on strength, and soon she agreed with him, and her admiration for him also followed. The passage of time piled up.

Akashi occupied more and more territory in her heart, and then the opponent's weight in her heart became less and less, and she regarded him as a reliable friend more often.

Until the third year of junior high school, the relationship between them as enemies and friends was completely broken.

Speaking of which, after entering high school, they rarely saw each other.She is in Tokyo, and he is far away in Kyoto, four hours by Shinkansen and eight hours by night bus.

In fact, Qiye knew very well that if two people want to meet, no matter how far they are, they will overcome it.Don't want to meet, no matter how close they are, they will run away. "No time" and "too far away" are all good-sounding excuses after all.

"Natsuya, I'm very happy," Akashi said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his red and gold pupils were particularly dazzling under the light, "You are finally willing to come out of the cage you set up."

The last time he met at the Ice Emperor Academy Festival, he found that she was gradually no longer autistic, but now she has completely moved from darkness to light.

But she belonged to the light, and now she just returned to her original position.

Qiye looked at the other party's beautiful eyes, the crimson red was as hot as a flame, and the pale gold showed aloofness and nobility.Although there was a hint of tenderness in the words, the sharp and aggressive gaze was impossible to ignore.

Obviously it wasn't like this before.If the Akashi Seijuro she knew in the past hid his sharpness and vigor under a gentle surface, then he is now showing his sharpness and hiding his gentleness under a powerful aura.

She lowered her eyes silently.

The boy was not quite right.She participated in the competition not because she wanted to return to the stage to prove herself, but under Keigo Atobe's half-push, she stood in the center of the crowd with the reason of "winning glory for the ice emperor".In the end, it wasn't that she was willing to come out of the dark corner herself, but was pulled out by Keigo Atobe.

Originally thought that she would be awkward, but on the contrary, she didn't have any resistance.In fact, she is longing for this light and heat in her heart.

"Yes," Qiye breathed a sigh of relief, discarding those distracting thoughts, met those sharp eyes with gentleness hidden, and pretended to say, "I'm also very happy, you are here to watch the game, rather than competing."

"Heh," Akashi caught a glimpse of the faint smile in Qiye's black eyes, and chuckled, "It seems that you are very confident in the result."

"After all, 'I won't lose'," Qiye paused, "without you."

The first half of the sentence sounds extremely arrogant, but in fact it is just a parody of the famous saying of the young man in front of him.She has lost enough times, but she has been successful in piano.The second half of the sentence is purely a joke.

"Let's go backstage and wait for the results," Akashi smiled, not paying attention to Nanaya's joke, "Also, I'm going to Tokyo tomorrow, do you want to come together?"

Qiye was stunned for a moment, a little at a loss for the sudden invitation.However, seeing the boy's eyes suddenly full of seriousness, he immediately understood what he meant.

It was also time to meet the man she had avoided for so long.

For the result of the game, Qiye didn't have much expectations.She went all out this time and performed very well. There is not much suspense in getting the first place.When she stood in the center of the stage and received the award, both her expression and her heart were very calm.It seemed that at this moment, she suddenly understood what Akashi, who was always number one, was thinking.

When a person's strength exceeds that of his opponent by too much, victory is in his pocket.

However, in this world, strength is not the only factor that leads directly to victory, but mentality, perseverance, and luck are also important.So after learning that Akashi's basketball team lost to Kuroko Tetsuya's team, she was surprised at first, but quickly accepted this fact.Of course, this is all for later.

The two schools jointly hold this kind of large-scale competition. On the surface, it is said that friendship is the first and the competition is the second. In fact, each of them competes in terms of the number of winners and gold content.Last time the first prize winner in the piano group was Li Haida, but this time Ice Emperor finally got Ice Emperor. Even though he was a stranger, the students of Ice Emperor were all proud of it.

Everyone in Hyotei's grade knew the name Asahi Nanaya, because she was an exchange student going to Lihai University this semester. She was talked about at the beginning of the semester, but because almost no one knew her, it quickly stopped.

And this time, Qiye, who won the No. 1 piano group in the musical instrument competition of the art festival, has suddenly become the celebrity of Li Haida and Bingdi from an unknown little transparency.

However, such redness is time-sensitive, and it will soon fade out of people's after-dinner chats with the upcoming exams.

Towards the end of the term, the atmosphere of the whole class has also become dignified.No one went to play in the corridor anymore, and Genichiro Sanada was missing a routine of roaring. Qiye felt a little regretful, but soon immersed in the sea of ​​books.

After studying hard for several days, the students finally passed the exam and ushered in their long-awaited vacation.

After the holiday, when Nana was about to pack up and return to Tokyo, she unexpectedly received an invitation from Yukimura to have dinner together.

"It's been a while, Asahi," Yukimura said softly on the phone, "Let's have a meal together when you have time."

After confirming the free time, Yukimura smiled and told Nanaya that he must come, the ending sounds quite meaningful.

I always feel that something happened, is it her illusion?

Although she had some doubts, she was still a little happy about Yukimura's invitation.He can be regarded as her rare best friend in Lihai University.

On the appointed day, Nana dressed up for a rare occasion, and then walked to the door of the private room of a barbecue restaurant according to the address given by Yukimura.

This private room should not look too small, and I always feel that it is impossible if there are only two people.she thought secretly.

However, even with a certain amount of psychological preparation, after pushing the door open, Qiye was still shocked by the scene inside.

In addition to Yukimura, there are also all the main candidates and managers of Lihai University in the private room.Sitting around at this time, some are playing with their mobile phones, and some are chatting in pairs, so lively.When they saw her enter the door, everyone put down what they were doing.

On the wall, there was a big banner with strong brush characters written on it - "Asahi and Seven Nights farewell party, all members of the Lihai Tennis Club will attend!"

"It's finally here!"

"The protagonist is always the finale, pooh."

Looking at the group of teenagers smiling at her friendly, Qiye curled up her mouth from the bottom of her heart.

"Thank you all." She bowed deeply towards them.

In fact, if you think about it, you can figure it out. This is probably Minister Yukimura's suggestion, and these members can arrive so neatly, not only because they followed the minister's suggestion, but also as support and optimism for her.

Seeing her rare smile, everyone was stunned for a moment, but the atmosphere that had been frozen for a moment soon became active.

"Wow, Asahi-senpai's smile is really hard to see, can we buy lottery tickets? Maybe we're lucky." Mori Kosaburo teased.

"Asahi usually smiles a lot, isn't it pretty?" Fumta Marui blew a big bubble, compared to scissorhands, and smiled brightly at Nanaya.

"We have collected good data." Liu Lian'er squinted her eyes, not forgetting to record the data at this time.

This group of people.Nanaya shook her head helplessly, then sat next to Yukimura.

This farewell party was not very grand, it was similar to an ordinary offline party, everyone joked and ate without any scruples at all.But the only difference is the addition of a gift-giving link.

Qiye didn't expect to receive a gift when she left.When she took Sanada's copybook, she was full of gratitude.

After obtaining Sanada's permission, she slowly unfolded the copybook, displaying the large characters on the white rice paper in front of everyone.The pen is powerful, round and thick, with a solemn and vigorous momentum.

——"Open-minded and cheerful."

It really suits her right now.

Qiye also learned calligraphy, but she could barely write characters that could be read with one hand, obviously not up to Sanada's high level.Looking at the familiar style, the banner on the wall must have been made by Sanada.

"Thank you, Sanada-kun." She nodded towards him and carefully put away the copybook.

"We can't relax after returning to Ice Empress!" Sanada said with affirmation in his serious eyes.

In the beginning, she agreed to Nanaya to be the manager of the tennis department just because she believed in Yukimura's eyes.After a semester, he has witnessed her style of doing things with his own eyes, she doesn't say much, just works quietly, and manages many logistics of the tennis club in an orderly manner.And academically, it seems that he was ranked among the top three in the final final exam.Even though she is ugly and sometimes too low-key, he admires her in many ways.

Seeing the farewell gift from the deputy minister, the others also took out the things they had prepared.

So Qiye received all kinds of gifts, and at first glance, they all fit the characteristics of the teenagers.

What Marui Bunta gave her was assorted flavors of bubble gum, which was said to be a limited edition.Hiroshi Yagyu presented a detective novel, Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha.Liu Renji also gave a book, but it is a typical Japanese novel, "I am a cat" by Natsume Soseki.

Qiye never refuses anyone who comes to books. She herself can be regarded as a literary girl. Although she has borrowed these two gifts from the library, she can cherish them.However, the gift from Masaharu Nioh at the same table was a bit weird. Looking at the "chewing gum" in her hand, Nanaya raised her head hesitantly.

Will Nioh and Marui give the same thing?The answer is of course no, and then King Ni gave a smirk and explained to her that this is a prank prop he just bought. was electrocuted.

It's really in line with his usual style.Qiye was a little speechless, but still kept it in her bag.

For a person like her who usually looks very serious, if you want to trick someone, it's a breeze.She silently considered the feasibility of this plan in her heart.

Everyone turned their eyes to Yukimura, who was the only one who hadn't sent a gift yet, and Nanaya also looked at him. (Please support the original version for the rest of the content)
