Chapter 13 The Redemption of Indulging in Darkness

Pu Xia's words were like a stone breaking the peace, causing ripples in my heart.I tried not to think about it, but his voice began to replay in my mind more and more clearly.

...When I saw you half a year ago, you were also sick from the rain, right?

Besides you, your mother has no alibi either.

I did conceal the fact that I had been to that bungalow half a year ago. On the premise that no one knew about it, the spearhead of the case was still aimed at me. Can't get rid of it?

As for the mother, I didn't listen to Uraxia's details about the so-called absence of an alibi.But after her nervous breakdown, she did sneak out of the hospital for a while.And after Lan Yuan Masaoyu was killed, I didn't go to the hospital to visit her for a few days, and then I heard from the doctor at the time that she had a serious illness.

If all of these can be connected by causality, make a bold guess. If my mother secretly left the hospital and went to the bungalow that night, her health was not good. reasonable.

While I was thinking this way, another voice in my heart denied me again.The mother I have seen all this time is a woman who is too weak to be attacked by a single blow. In a mentally abnormal state, how did she brave the heavy rain?

I'm not an idiot, and I wouldn't fail to hear Pu Xia's two words. He was implying that my mother and I, who didn't have an alibi that night, were definitely the murderer, although there was no direct evidence that they were the murderers.In addition to what he said earlier that he believes that I am not the murderer, then the issue he has always wanted to talk to me is very likely to be about the connection between my mother and the case.

At this point, I dare not continue to think about it.

After that incident, I was so cold-eyed and ostracized in Tokyo that I thought about committing suicide many times, but my mother who was still by my side gave me the determination to continue walking in a gray world.If even my mother becomes a lie, my world will definitely collapse until there are only broken pieces left.

My mother and I chose Kanagawa because when we decided to leave Tokyo, my mother said that she wanted to see the sea.Although the apartment where I live can hear the sound of the sea, I have never fulfilled the promise I made with my mother.

After being fired by Yutian, I still haven't found a new part-time job.I had almost no club activities, and after saying goodbye to Eriko after class in the afternoon, I left the school directly.

With the rare good weather, the complicated mood also eased a little.If I met Puxia in the hospital, before he told me that sentence, I would run to the hospital immediately, but now, I don't dare to face my mother.

The afternoon sun is not very hot, but when it shines on the skin, the warmth feels like being baptized.I followed the signs, but walked along the side of the road aimlessly.

Thinking about it now, my life is really as monotonous as clear water.School, hospital, part-time job, home.Other than that, there is nothing left.Under the premise of not having a part-time job and not daring to go to the hospital, I didn't know where I should go for a while.

After being away from the incident for half a year, people and things from the past kept rushing into my life like a flood.At a loss, I started to escape again... No, after rejecting Urashita, I already started to escape.

As we walked slowly, we gradually heard the sound of waves.When I came back to my senses, I realized that the line of communication between the sea and the beach had quietly entered my field of vision.

His eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the deep blue, and the sea under the sun shone like magic.The waves, with pure white foam, flowed over the sand over and over again.

I took off my leather shoes and stockings, and stepped on the beach with my bare feet. The warm sand on the soles of my feet felt itchy.I walked towards the surface of the sea, and gradually, the sea water covered the soles of my feet from time to time, bringing a chill for a while.

I don't know when it will be possible to watch the sea with my mother.After Urashita left, I didn't ask my mother anything about him.Urashita's words really made an impression on me, and I also admit that I really want to know the truth of the follow-up.

There are two reasons why I didn’t ask my mother directly. The first is because I’m afraid that she won’t be able to bear it, and I will directly lead to a mental breakdown after I bring up the incident. All are affirmed.

Looking at my mother's gentle appearance at all times, I didn't say a word.Because I was afraid that those gentle smiles that only my mother would show me would turn into hypocrisy in an instant.

"What should I do..." I sighed and said to myself.

The sea and the beach, which are completely exposed to the sun, are unbelievably bright.In the lonely world with only one person, I have never been able to free myself from the shadow in my heart.Sometimes I wonder if I have the right to be illuminated by such sunshine.

Walking forward step by step, the sea water gradually spread from the ankle to the knee.The sun piercing my eyes made me a little dazed, and in my half-closed eyes, only the blue color of the sky and the sea was left to form a whole picture.

If I yelled for help before I sank into darkness, would someone pull me out of it?

The legs are soaked in the sea water, the cold touch and the warmth of the sun form a strong contrast.When I was still in a daze, as if reflecting my inner voice, I was suddenly grabbed by my wrist and pulled back forcibly.

"Lanyuan-san! It's dangerous to go any further!"

The clear boy's voice came to my ears like a chant of redemption, and I was pulled back a few steps staggeringly, and the shadow of the boy standing against the light hit my face.

I opened my eyes wide and looked at the blond boy pulling me back, it was Ryota Kise.He was wearing a white shirt, a dark blue bowler hat, and the leg of his cropped trousers was wet from running straight into the water.

"Kase-kun?"

There was a slight tremor in the bottom of my heart, and Kise, who was standing against the backlight, was like bright and shining sunlight, and his dazzling appearance made people yearn for it.I probably understood why I couldn't help staring at him every time I saw him.He is another way of existence of sunshine.

"Lanyuan-san, are you unable to figure out something? If you go on like this, your mother will be very sad..."

He eagerly babbled a lot of words to me not to commit suicide, and he held my wrist tightly and never let go.

"I didn't want to kill myself..."

It wasn't until I silently said this sentence that his earnest persuasion came to an abrupt end.Then he breathed a sigh of relief, let go of me, and wiped his forehead, "This is so frightening to death, I thought... But speaking of it, why did Lan Yuan-san come here?"

In fact, I don't know why I came here, it's just an aimless transition.Instead of answering Kise's question, I asked the same question, "Why is Kise-kun here?"

"A set of exterior scenes was shot here, and I saw you walking into the sea just after the end..."

"Kise-kun is a graphic model?"

"It's a part-time job as a model...Wow, you don't know, how sad!"

"..."

It's completely different from Kise before the misunderstanding was solved. Compared with the time when he was indifferent and alienated, he at this moment is completely unlike the kindness I've seen before.

I dare not stay in front of Kise for too long, I am afraid that he will gradually think of the case in Tokyo half a year ago when he looks at me.

"Then, goodbye." I nodded slightly and said goodbye to him.

Walking away from Kise's side, when he lifted the leather shoes he took off, Kise stopped me loudly, "Aihara-san, please wait a moment!"

Turning around, the boy standing in the sun seemed to be endowed with light.I looked at him, just for a few seconds, and couldn't help being fascinated by it.

After he stopped me, he quickly ran up to me, his eyebrows slightly arched, "Um... is Lan Yuan-san angry with me?"

"What?" I didn't understand why Kise asked so suddenly, there was a little worry in his expression.

"I suddenly ran into the rain that day..." He looked down at my face, his golden-brown eyes were lowered with seriousness, "Am I angry at the previous misunderstanding? Or because I asked for my name... "

I looked back at his handsome face, didn't speak, and didn't show any expression.He seemed to become more and more anxious because of my reaction, "I've heard about Lan Yuan-san's name, I definitely didn't say it to get closer...but I did hear it, that... that is, Lan Yuan When Yuan Sang was in middle school, he won a prize in a mathematics competition, right?"

When I heard the last sentence, I was stunned, "So you know it because of the competition?"

"Well, that's it."

The moment he got the affirmation, his heart suddenly relaxed.What Kise is to me has nothing to do with the case of Aihara Masaoyuki.I'm glad he didn't know about that.

"I'm not mad at Kise-kun."

"Yeah, that would be great!"

He regained the same smile as Sunshine, looking at him like this, it felt like warmth flowed from the bottom of my heart.

"Thank you, Kise-kun."

"Eh? Why do you say thank you again?"

I shook my head and continued to say thank you.

I thought, if I looked at him more, would I not be so depressed?

Before I explained that I wasn't trying to kill myself, Kise's grip on my arm was genuine.At the moment of being pulled, apart from being surprised, I was undoubtedly palpitating.Feeling his strength, I seem to have regained some sense of my own existence.

The world may not be as cold as I imagined.His appearance was like a ray of light penetrating into the darkness, gradually infecting me.

I looked up at Kise, the too bright sunlight blurred my vision.I think, I might really start to have a crush on him.
