【Chenghua】Your hand in mine

>>>>>>

It was freezing in the middle of the night, even Kakyoin had a fever.When he was young, he could run around in Central Asia in two. In winter, Jotaro, who walked behind, wore a vest and a jacket on one arm, and he was fine no matter how cold the wind blows.The illness came like a mountain, and Kakyoin asked for leave to rest at home for two days, and he didn't go to work at all-he had to help Jotaro through this difficult time.

From the ticket to the hotel, Kakyoin took care of everything, and the air ticket was excluded. Considering the mental state of the other party, the scenery on the ground would make him relax.Jotaro didn't know about this plan until he was dragged out of the bed that morning. He went to soak in a hot spring first, and then stopped by to visit Kakyoin's parents. It was logical that he would also visit Kujo Sadao and Hari when he returned.According to Jotaro's character, he would definitely not want to appear in front of his parents in his current appearance, but Kakyoin thought very clearly that family affection and growth environment, these things that accompanied Jotaro for the first half of his life would help him.Even though he didn't want to go back to his own home at all, it was a necessary sacrifice.

So they took the first Shinkansen and sat with a group of gray-haired old men and women, looking very, very young.I don’t know how long I haven’t traveled according to my own ideas. Although I have traveled all over the world because of work, compared with the telegraph poles running back outside the window, the wilderness has no time limit and no purpose.I feel pretty happy.

The car traveling at a constant speed made people feel drowsy, Jotaro put down the back of the seat, dozed off intermittently, shaking his head, and finally settled down next to the shoulders of the people around him, he didn't know if he was asleep or not.Kakyoin switched the page-turning hand to the other, tilted his shoulders a little, lowered one shoulder, and Jotaro's breath was sprayed directly in his ear.He thought of the pair of red spherical earrings, which were his favorite things when he was young, but was once disliked by Jotaro, saying that they kept hitting his face.

"Then you can sleep next to it." Kakyoin replied bluntly, Jotaro squinted his eyes, clamped one of the red agates between his nose and upper lip, and refused to leave.Later, he stopped doing this, and the earrings were put away in the deep drawer without anyone mentioning it.

His thoughts were interrupted, the train shook a bit, awakening Jotaro, leaning on his shoulder and asking, how long has it been and when will we arrive.

"Sleep, I will call you when we arrive." The answer was irrelevant.He hummed in a daze, buried his head completely, raised the brim of his hat, and took it off. In the black hair, he could faintly see graying spots scattered here and there.

After getting off the Shinkansen, I changed the bus once, and there were still people in the same compartment. It was only after the two middle-aged people realized that they accidentally entered a senior tourist group by mistake.The bus was full of local dialects, and some people spoke to them. Kakyoin repeated a few words loudly, and the other party waved their hands and said that I don't understand, and then sat back.When they arrived at the destination, their bones were exhausted by the bumps of the mountain road. The car hadn't stopped yet. The old people got out of the car with big bags and small bags very excitedly. There was an endless line at the front desk. .

"...these old people are really energetic." The last car they got out of was Huajingyuan, holding his buttocks and dragging the only suitcase of luggage.

"It looks like we won't be able to squeeze in for a while. Go eat first?"

"……Fine."

This hotel is not big, and the hot spring pool is next to where we live. Throughout the afternoon, the sound of laughing and fighting in the open-air hot spring can be clearly transmitted to the room.Kakyoin obviously picked a wrong time, finally checked in and entered the room, and changed into a bathrobe, but could only curl up and watch TV.In the evening, the noise moved to another place, and this was the chance to go for a soak.

Jotaro is not very interested in soaking in the hot springs. After 5 minutes in the water, he went ashore and sat on the edge of the rock, watching Kakyoin soaking in the water with a towel on his forehead, with a look of enjoyment on his face.A cold can only be completely healed after soaking in hot springs, Kakyoin said, even when he swam, the towel around his crotch was only tied in a knot, and it was about to fall down—it doesn’t matter if it really falls off, the Emperor will help pick it up, promise Taro thought, his feet got entangled inadvertently, he pulled down, and fell into the water with a plop.

"Hey..." Jotaro choked on water and shook his head desperately.It smells like sulfur.

"Sorry sorry," Kakyoin said with a smile, swimming up to him and covering his head with the towel from his forehead. "It's all here, it's a pity not to stay for a while."

No way, I finally soaked with him until his body turned red before leaving.As a result, Kakyoin was greedy and went to soak again before going to bed. When he came back, Jotaro had already fallen asleep, and he also fell on the tatami, falling asleep in a daze.

The elderly tour group didn't look like they would leave immediately. The next day they went around the neighborhood - a temporary plan B.Compared with the hotel, the mountain forest is much cleaner. In addition, there was a little rain last night. The flower buds of the crabapple were full of water and hung their heads, forming a long red track along the slope road leading to the mountain, like a natural The landmarks are average, so that people will not get lost.Wearing clogs, Kakyoin stepped cautiously on the fallen leaves of the evergreen forest, and the leaves kept swirling and falling. In the season of chilly spring, it looked a bit like late autumn.

The middle-aged duo stopped and walked, and the clogs tapped slowly, being attracted by the birds on the roadside from time to time.When they reached the highest point, the clouds and mist in the mountains quietly dissipated, and they climbed up to the observation deck next to the shrine on the top of the mountain—the old wooden boards creaked, and no one had stepped here for a long time—the surrounding scenery was panoramic.Perhaps because of the northerly location, the withered cherry blossoms in the city have just bloomed here. When the wind blows, countless pink and white petals flutter down one after another, spreading a layer of foil on the surface of the lower green forest.Unlike the wild cherry trees in the mountains, the cherry blossom trees in the shrine are artificially planted, but unfortunately there are not many visitors, and few people watch them.

The shrine does not occupy a large area, and there is no trace of human habitation, but it is still clean and tidy.Although the sparrow was small and well-equipped, the two bowed in front of the torii gate, stepped into the realm of the gods, and then used a wooden spoon to clean their hands with a wooden spoon in a pavilion on the approach road, and walked slowly to the hall.

Thinking about it carefully, I haven’t made a wish at the shrine this year, but for various reasons, I can make up for it now.The money box was moldy, and the ropes and bells were hanging boringly.The two walked over at the same time, Hua Jingyuan took out the coin purse, took out two five-yuan coins, one for each person, rang the bell, put them into the cash box, and clapped twice.As for the wish, good health - this is what I say every year. At the beginning, it was a bit of a routine. As I grow older, I will gradually withdraw from studies, progress and work, and only this is left. Simple, weigh It weighs more than anything else.It is more like a proxy, telling the gods their implicit truth, such as luck, such as avoiding death.

But now, Jotaro still has some formless and unspeakable impulses in his heart. He can't find a word to express it, and he can't express it clearly.Kakyoin was on his right, blind eyes couldn't see, so I don't know what kind of expression it was.

Out of etiquette, no one spoke for a long time after leaving the shrine.The downhill road was more difficult than the uphill one. Kakyoin was in front, shaking his hands, and his sleeves were dangling in the air; Jotaro walked behind with arms folded, walking steadily step by step.

"What wish did you make?"

"Tell me about you first."

"It doesn't work to say it."

Kakyoin sometimes acts like a child, like now.Most of the time, he is very serious and meticulous, which is especially reflected in his clothes: all clothes must be buttoned to the top row, and he will never forget to tidy up the collar, and the sleeves must be rolled up neatly, and both sides are the same height ,What.But Jotaro seems to always, or inadvertently, find the threads on his clothes, the occasional wrong button, the curled up lock of hair, and the unshaven chin.Of course, this is just a metaphor. In his eyes, the petty actions of his friends are nothing more than a kind of gap. Through it, he can see a flawed but more complete Noriaki Kakyoin.

So when I heard Jousuke describe the other Kakyoin he saw in the hospital (the one who was interrogated), there was even a trace of jealousy buried in his bottomless expression.He felt ugly, and thinking of this, he couldn't help but follow the other party's mischievous trap that didn't match his middle-aged temperament.

"We, and everyone we know, are happy and healthy."

"So coincidentally, so am I."

It's so easy to say "what can't be said".

"I thought you'd make a wish to retire early."

"I do have this idea, but there are still less than ten years left, and Ren Ren will pass."

50 years old is the retirement age stipulated by the SpeedWagon stand-in messenger department. It seems that their salary is better than the outsiders, and the retirement age is also earlier, but correspondingly, the risk is also high, and the task is usually accompanied by danger. Not everyone inside can do it. until retirement.Although Dongsuke Jousuke joined later, the situation is much better than before. I heard that there is another stand-in in Italy who has the same ability as him, and he is also of the Joestar family. For various reasons, he could not be recruited, and I don’t know more details. Well, after all, Jotaro didn't say anything, let alone met that person.

"Having said that, life after that is really hard to imagine... I feel like there will be nothing to do."

This is the truth of Kakyoin.After Jotaro's accident, the plan that he had planned before was pushed back and started again. The reason is unknown. He felt that it was not what he really wanted. The life he wanted to live seemed to be missing something. He always felt that something was different. too same.

After staying in the hot spring hotel for several days, after visiting all the places that can be visited, Kakyoin began to slowly pack up and prepare to go home to visit relatives.Jotaro had the feeling that he was stalling until the other party said it was time for us to go.On the way home, his complexion was also not very good. He changed his previous chatty state and became silent, unwilling to say anything.

When the car drove into the urban area, many people got out of the car, and they were the only ones left in the car to go to the more remote suburbs.After buying some gifts symbolically, Huajingyuan led the way to an old mansion. The wooden sign at the door was beaten by wind and rain, and the name of the owner could barely be seen.He rang the doorbell, and after an unknown amount of time, the Japanese-style sliding door opened a crack, and he looked out with one eye.An old woman with gray hair and an unhappy expression opened the door and shouted in the local dialect.

"You still have the face to come back!"

"Just passing by." Kakyoin also replied in dialect, raising the visiting salute as a signal.

The old woman ignored him, and looked Jotaro up and down, her eyes like searchlights.As if remembering something, she screamed that you are not allowed to come in, then slammed the door shut and locked it.

Being rejected from the house by his mother, Huajingyuan lost his temper instead, as if the mission had been completed, the haze along the way was swept away.He stretched his hand through the gap in the railing, put the visiting ceremony there, and shouted towards his house, which was regarded as a greeting.The two surviving old men hid, and none of them came out, even though this was Kakyo-in's revisit after two years.After finishing everything, he took Jotaro and left without hesitation.

"I forgot which year or when I came back and told them that I broke up with my girlfriend, and I don't plan to look for it again, that's it. When I was in love, I kept urging to get married. The older generation can understand, after all People who grew up around me have three generations living under the same roof, and it is quite unfilial for me to do so."

But you're still not married, you should have tried.Jotaro didn't say it, it's not good to meddle in the affairs of other people's family anyway, and he felt that his position was not qualified to say that, so he swallowed the words with the sesame dumplings bought at the door.

As for Kakyoin's parents, he only met a few times in the corridors of the hospital. Even so, Jotaro was deeply impressed by the tradition and conservatism in his bones.They seemed to hate him very much. Although they didn't say anything, they couldn't hide their expressions. During the conversation with Joseph, they even conveyed Kakyoin's sudden change of temperament and the fact that he was transferred hundreds of kilometers away without saying a word. The reason for this is attributed to his grandson, that is, himself.Joseph tried to explain the double to them, but it caused an electric shock reaction. They stubbornly believed that people with doubles were possessed by the devil.

"OHMYGOD!!! How can there be such an ignorant person!" Joseph gave up, and asked them directly how much compensation they wanted, and if they could solve it with money, they would simply use money to solve it.

We haven't seen each other since then.Unexpectedly, after so many years, Jotaro is still unpopular, and Kakyoin's mother can stare at him through a hole, although, well, the big turning point in Kakyoin's life is indeed related to Joestar's family affairs, which cannot be escaped , but back then, the time he spent with Huajingin in the hospital far exceeded that of his parents.

"Sorry, if I knew this earlier, I should have avoided it."

"It's okay, the relationship was not good before. I thought they were finally willing to let me in. Fortunately, I booked another room, otherwise I will sleep on the street tonight. What do you want for dinner? The beef tongue nearby is quite famous. Go to Eat? I'll take you around tomorrow."

"it is good."

Kakyoin took a bite of the dumpling, and the black and black sesame stuffing came out and splashed on the table.

>>>>>>

After returning from the ghost gate, Jotaro stepped into his house for the first time. Although he had already called in the taxi that came, he was still uneasy.The driver looked at him through the rearview mirror from time to time, hesitant to speak.

Holi was waiting for them at the door in a plain kimono.She is old, but still elegant, with docile silver threads, her hair is pulled up in a bun at the back of her head, and she is decorated with a tasseled hairpin.Seeing Jotaro, Hari looked at her only child with pity, and gave him a hug.

"Jotaro, my son, welcome back."

If it was a young man, Jotaro would have been annoyed, and then pushed Holi's lips that came up to kiss him on the cheek.Since when did he learn to accept his mother's outpouring love calmly, and as a reward, he would also embrace her, but this time it took a very long time, and his mother's shoulders seemed to be still trembling.Reunited after a long absence, thousands of emotions welled up in my heart, Jotaro didn't say anything, just patted his mother lightly, he scared her.

When they parted, the corners of He Li's eyes were dry again. She looked at her son again, raised her hand to stroke the wound on his right cheek, and her movements were very gentle.Jotaro said I'm fine, but I can't see, so don't worry.She pursed her lips, nodded with a smile, then turned around, said hello to Kakyoin beside her, and led them into the house.

Facing He Li, who may be his first love, Kakyoin has never been stingy with compliments, complimenting everything from clothing to hair accessories, ignoring Jotaro's dark face.He didn't know how many times he stepped here, walked through the courtyard and corridors, and came to the guest room with ease.The beds have already been made, including those in Jotaro's room. He Li has always been very careful. Considering that they are exhausted, they prepared these in advance.They were indeed very tired. After finishing the polite words, they rested in their respective rooms for an afternoon.

For dinner, Holly prepared traditional Japanese dishes.To Kakyoin's surprise, Jotaro's father also appeared at the banquet. In his impression, he was a busy man traveling all over the world, so he didn't even have a chance to meet him.In recent years, Kujo Sadao obviously felt that his body was not as good as before, so he announced his retirement, and lived in seclusion at home since then, spending his old age peacefully.He was wearing a dark kimono with dark patterns, and he looked respectable, but he showed an active spirit that did not match his age.

According to Sadao himself, after retiring, he studied rock music in the field of home transfer, and put aside the jazz music he had played all his life.In the afternoon, he just went to listen to the live at the venue, and said that although the young people don't understand what they do, they can learn something, but the sound is too loud.

Jotaro frowned and said that the place was crowded and crowded, don't be pushed down.Sadao said it was okay, took out a signed group photo, and said that he had seen it a few times, and the band promised to prepare a VIP seat for him.Holly echoed with a smile, and told Sadhu not to throw those things around at night, it was noisy, and the reason the neighbors didn't complain was because the house was big.

"Then I'll go to my friend's place to stay for a few days, and you can rest well here." Sadao said.

Everything and what.

He is indeed a very trendy old man, Kakyoin sighed, and it is not surprising why He Li was willing to marry to Japan when she was young. The few Yamato traditions have been inherited, and the reliability is almost unreasonable.

Unexpectedly, Zhenfu actually left.Kakyoin thought it was just a joke, and at night the old man was nowhere to be found.

"He's the kind of guy who made his home all over the world before he met my mother. He never settled in one place. If it wasn't for her, and later for me, I wouldn't have bought a house here. And then... as you can see, He has been living in his own life, and marriage is just a formality, but it does not allow him to take care of his family." In this regard, we are very similar, Jotaro emphasized.

At this moment they were walking in the back garden, following the stone path past the carp pond.In the distance, Holly's figure appeared in the main house, dimly illuminated by the lamp.

"Your mother... Ms. He Li, she is very strong." You are the same, Kakyoin thought.This topic has no beginning, and once it is brought up, it cannot be stopped. "When I saw her for the first time, I was surrounded by a gentle force, not strong, very natural. But anyone who has been in contact with her will not leave her in misery, even if I am not one The stand-in messenger will also follow you to Egypt."

When he said this, the old wounds on Kakyoin's eyes seemed to be a little deeper under the night.

"You have also met my mother. I have no idea about her. I just think that if they have the opportunity to meet, will they be affected. Everyone deserves happiness. Ms. He Li taught me I have also taught you this point—Jotaro, you have a good mother, think about her, don’t always live in self-blame.”

Jotaro neither nodded nor shook his head, the scar hiding his expression more and more skillfully each time.They were speechless, they walked out of the back garden, the last quarter moon hid in the clouds, and the surroundings were completely dark.Jotaro said hello, and then went back to sleep in the house, Kakyoin didn't feel sleepy, walked around the courtyard a few times, sitting alone in the spacious front yard in a daze.Wan Lai was silent.

"Dianming?" He Li walked through the vestibule with a bundle of clothes in his arms, saw Kakyoin sitting alone, and called his name from the back room.

"Ms. Holly? It's all over...do you need help?" He got up, but was stopped again, Holly told him to sit there and not move.After a while, she took the jug and wine glass to the vestibule, poured a glass of wine, and pushed it in front of Kakyoin with her fingertips.

"This is……"

"Long time no see, let's chat." A gentle smile appeared beside his eyes.Kakyoin relaxed, said thank you, and took a sip from the cup.

"How's your health recently?"

"Don't look at my age, I have a great body." Holly clenched her fists and clenched her elbows, doing a gesture like a poster in the 30s in the United States, showing that she was tough. "Where's Dianming?"

"It's okay, it's just..." I just don't know if I should talk about Jotaro's recent situation.The long wound on his face was scary enough, and he wasn't sure Holly would be able to listen to the story calmly, so he swallowed halfway through.

"It's okay, let's talk. I want to know what happened to Jotaro's child, besides, it should be Noriaki's suggestion to come back this time?" He Li's eyes seemed to understand everything, a little sad.

"Then I'll be rude." Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Kakyoin changed his posture with his legs crossed casually, sat upright, and told He Li everything from the accident to this trip, omitting the promise The severity of Taro's injury and most of his own subjective feelings are described in a straightforward manner, trying not to let personal emotions affect He Li.There are only two people in the courtyard, the wind winds around the Japanese black pine planted in the courtyard, and the rustling surrounds it, making the sound of Huajingyuan extremely clean.His tone didn't change too much. During the whole process, Holly listened quietly, filling the empty wine glass from time to time, and there was no extra movement, as if afraid of disturbing the narrator.When the topic finally came to an end, there was only half of the wine in the jug, and the other half slid down the esophagus into Kakyoin's stomach. This will soothe the rough mood.It was also because of the wine that the three or two sentences stretched infinitely like wings. After an unknown amount of time, all the sentences walked around the entire empty mansion, returned to the vestibule, and stopped abruptly.

Holly closed her eyes.After a long time, so long that Kakyoin felt sorry, she opened her eyes again, blinked a few times, and let go of her seriousness. "He is always like this, he doesn't tell me what happened, and he carries it by himself." She said, her eyes looked into the distance, and then gathered on Huajingyuan's face. "But about Noriaki, he often tells me about you. Jotaro hasn't come back many times in these years. Every time we chat, he rarely tells me about his own thoughts. The most talked about, apart from his family, is Dian Ming you - sit here, as now."

"Me? No, this, Ms. He Li..." Countless similar scenes flashed through my mind instantly, and my face was as hot as burning.

"When I heard your story just now, I felt very similar. How is it like... I kept thinking and thinking, and suddenly remembered that a long time ago, Dianming had just been admitted to the hospital and hadn't woken up yet. Dad and I went to visit you together ...remember my dad?"

Kakyoin nodded.Mr. Joseph - though dead many years, remains in his heart an important friend and comrade in arms.

Holly went on to say that they were sitting together on a chair in the corridor, and Joseph suddenly said something, but he didn't expect Jotaro to be right.Back then, when the medical staff rushed to the seriously injured Huajingin, seeing the tragic state, they felt that he could not be saved.Jotaro rushed into the cordon, grabbed one of them by the collar and yelled, "He's still alive! Are you blind and didn't see it? Don't tell me before you're sent to the hospital! Get saved or I'll beat you all up! Go!" If Joseph was not present, he might really beat the person who said no to his teeth.What happened afterwards was just like what Kakyoin had heard. I was indeed still breathing. Although my chest and abdomen were pierced, Dior’s fist was still a few centimeters away from my heart. It was these few centimeters that saved Kakyoin from death. Rescued back.

This time, it was Kakyoin's turn to be silent.He Li's voice was not very real, as if it came from a far away place, awakening some remaining memories in his mind, Jotaro's figure overlapped with himself: the 17-year-old Noriaki Kakyoin and the 42-year-old Kujo Jotaro once struggled between life and death, and the 18-year-old Kujo Jotaro and the 41-year-old Noriaki Kakyoin said the same thing—how could it be possible, there was a gap of more than 20 years in between, it seems that after so many years, he still Jotaro Yuri has been missing some very important things, and he can't explain clearly, messing up Kakyoin's head in a mess.

He picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank a glass.So his face became even redder, and he couldn't see it hidden in the darkness. He Li raised the pot, and he stretched out his hand, and there was another full cup.Consciousness kept falling, Huajingyuan didn't feel drunk, he forced himself to concentrate on listening, because Holly was still talking, rambling on.

"...the way you speak is so similar... many things are very similar. As a mother, I can see that he has never been good at expressing himself, and he takes everything on himself. His work is smoother than his family, and he can really understand him. There are very few people, even I can't guess his mind, but some knots can't be solved by parents, besides, I'm already this age, I'm an old woman... I still have a closer peer, a It will be better, friend."

"...can you see that he...has a problem?" These were the last words Kakyoin said to He Li that night. He leaned against the wall, his head drooping involuntarily.The flagon was empty early.

"Of course... not only Jotaro, but also Noriaki. The person you cherish may be right in front of you, don't miss it..."

"...you are probably the person Jotaro wants to entrust his whole life to. He has always cherished you. I had a hunch before, but now I am finally sure..." Ms. He Li's voice gradually weakened, like a passing away. spring breeze.I don't know if I heard the words behind.

"Dianming, Dianming?"

Kakyoin closed her eyes and fell asleep, and did not respond to He Li's call.She smiled, decided not to leave so soon, and stayed with him where she was.

Jotaro didn't sleep.Kakyoin's words stuck in his mind, and the insomnia that had finally been relieved came back again. Lying in the room and staring at the ceiling was of no avail, so he put on some clothes and walked to the courtyard, only to meet his mother and Kakyoin.

"mom?"

He Li immediately made a quiet gesture, pointed to Erhua Jingyuan beside him, and said with a embarrassed smile: "I prepared some wine for him, but it turned out to be like this by accident... I'll take care of you later."

"He's not in good health and can't drink too much..."

While talking, Kakyoin recovered a little bit of clarity, he shook his head, said sorry and tried to get up, before sitting down again before he could stand still.

"You don't move." Jotaro put up one of his arms helplessly, wished his mother good night, and dragged his friend to the guest room.Kakyoin hangs half of her body in mid-air, saying uncomfortably to put me down, put me down, a strong smell of alcohol can be smelled from a close distance.He couldn't explain the reason to the drunkard, and with this in mind, Jotaro ignored him, dragged him all the way to the room, put him on the bed, took off his shoes and socks, and covered him with a quilt.After tidying up and preparing to leave, Huajingyuan grabbed a corner of his clothes and said in a daze, let's sleep together.

Jotaro squatted down, and the hand grabbed his hand, not very strong.Huajingyuan said with a big tongue: "If you... still have nightmares, what should you do." After speaking, he pulled the person under the quilt.

Partly because it seems reasonable, and partly out of lack of reason, Jotaro obediently sneaked in as he wanted, the quilt for one person was not enough at once, Kakyoin hugged him, smiling, not knowing why he was happy.

>>>>>>

Early the next morning, the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little delicate.Kakyoin and Jotaro were unusually quiet. Although the two of them were not talkative people, He Li was the only one who greeted them during breakfast. She probably guessed what happened last night, and left after eating her portion There are two people left, you look at me and I look at you.

It's no wonder that when I woke up in the morning, I found myself hugging my friend intimately in the same bed. Even after living together for many years, Kakyoin instinctively kicked Jotaro out of the bed the moment he opened his eyes.As the one with a clear mind, Jotaro didn't know how to explain it, he couldn't say that you were drunk and I helped you back and then you invited me to sleep together and then we slept together, why does it sound weird?Jotaro was struggling with how to speak, so Holi knocked on the door and said that it was time to eat, and called them by their names.

It's really getting darker.

As a result, for several days in a row, the two of them were unable to speak a few words, and spent different time periods alone with He Li, cooking or doing housework, and going shopping together.Despite her advanced age, He Li's bargaining skills still stunned the two relatively young men, watching her smilingly cut the price in half, and the shop owner willingly gave away half a pack of freshly made tofu, The next one had the same result.

Kakyoin has not enjoyed this kind of feeling of going out with his mother for a long time. He is very happy to be with He Li, and she is also very happy. kimono get ready.I believe in Noriake’s aesthetic more than Jotaro’s, she said.Kakyoin thought of Jotaro's outfit, the purple jacket and snakeskin pants, and thought with a wry smile, it was indeed very special.

No one brought up the topic of that night.In the second half, Kakyoin was drunk, and only he knew how much he had heard.But his performance was the same as before. He Li accepted it as soon as he saw it, and focused on the matter of the two going home to visit relatives.The older generation can only help so much.

They stayed at Kongtiao's house for more than three weeks and almost a month, and the days on the calendar are almost six months, summer is long overdue, both of them changed into summer clothes, and the spring clothes couldn't fit, so they collected It's in Jotaro's closet, I'll pick it up again when I'm free.I'm used to living in Kakyoin, and I don't want to leave too much. Jotaro reminded him that if you extend your vacation, you will really retire early. Then he woke up like a dream, and hurriedly bought the return ticket.

He Li was very reluctant, and sent them all the way to the station, hugged them at the gate, and said to come back to see more.Jotaro nodded, until they disappeared, she still stood there looking around, refusing to leave for a long time.

The two sat side by side in the waiting room, almost half an hour before the boarding time.The only suitcase was very heavy. Before leaving, Holly stuffed it full. Jotaro kept staring at it, and suddenly asked, how much of your vacation is left?

"Isn't it Jotaro, you want to go back so soon...?"

"There is a place I want to go, before I go back."

Kakyoin looked into his one and only eye, not joking.He stretched out his palm, fingers spread out.

"Enough, it won't take long."

So 10 minutes before departure, they left the waiting room and bought tickets again, and fled to the opposite place from home one hour later. Riding the fresh and unfamiliar scenery all the way, they arrived at the last station of the journey at dusk. destination.

The sea, the boundless sea.There wasn't even a road sign for where to get off, and the driver chugs away before he could ask.Kakyoin had no choice but to toss a coin to determine a direction. Jotaro pulled the box, sniffing the salty smell of the wind, and the two walked side by side on the coastal path.

"Why do you suddenly want to come here?"

"Nothing, just go."

Fortunately, I found a way to the beach along the direction determined by the coin.At the beginning of summer, there were not many people playing at the beach, only some children who lived by the beach were splashing in the sea early with their swimming rings in their arms.They spent some money to store their luggage with the owner of a shower place, and they continued to walk forward, a lot of sand got into their shoes, Kakyoin simply took off his shoes and socks, and carried them in his left hand, Jotaro followed suit, carrying them in his right hand, The soles of my feet are warm after stepping on the sandy beach that has been in the sun for a whole day.

The setting sun was hanging in the air, and it no longer had the menacing aura of noon. It was covered with a gentle orange color by the sky, and dyed the sparkling sea surface yellow.Kakyoin squinted his eyes and couldn't see the other side of the sea. He turned his head to look at Jotaro, his green eyes filled with half the world's sea, and it was also calm.

"When I first returned to Japan, it was easy to have a dream. I dreamed that I was rolling in the torrent. You know what happened next..."

Kakyoin has been waiting for this moment, but did not expect it to come so early.Jotaro's heart is like an old door, which can't be pushed open and has no key. Now he opened a crack by himself. He stood up from the cobweb house and walked out, his face was much more vicissitudes than when he locked himself in.He is like a person who has not seen the sun for a long time. His life is already past noon.
