[Comprehensive] Manna's Summer

65#ry

After that day, time still flows.

The dead return to eternal peace, but the living continue to live.The sun still rises, the river still flows eastward, and everything on this little blue planet is still the same as yesterday.

But, maybe something, got a little better.

"Good morning, Classmate Nuliang."

After entering the classroom, Kuroko Tetsuya greeted Nuliang Rikusheng.Behind him, Vulcan Da I saw Lu Sheng's face, and his face turned blue by conditioned reflex.The Hundred Monogatari on the day of the autumnal equinox left him with a huge psychological shadow. Vulcan fainted the moment he saw the ghost, and he fainted until the next morning.From then on, when he saw Lu Sheng, he would reflexively think of the horrible scene that day, and even the voice he greeted Lu Sheng could not help but feel weak.

"Morning, good morning, Nura."

"Good morning, classmate Heizi, classmate Vulcan."

Nuliang Rikusheng raised his head from his book and nodded to the two of them.

He didn't explain to them what happened to the sword in his hand, his transformation, and how he met Mana that day.Kuroko didn't ask, and Kise, who occasionally came to Seirin to look for Kuroko, even if he saw Nura Rikuo, he didn't intend to come to ask.Everything that day seemed like a good dream, and it became their common secret.No one will question it, and no one will bring it up again.

That is a thing of the past.

"Speaking of which, I heard you say that your parents went to Aomori a few days ago?"

"Well, father will accompany mother to relax and pay homage to the shrine there."

"The shrine in Aomori is pretty good. The scenery is better, and it's good to go there to relax."

"Yes."

Through Kuroko Tetsuya's efforts, the relationship between the parents has become much more harmonious, and the mother has gradually been able to accept the fact that the eldest daughter has passed away, and supported them together, and slowly walked out of the pain.This trip to Aomori was their attempt to let go of the pain.

"Reila Serizawa's court day is coming, do you want to go see it?"

Hei Zizhe was also taken aback when he heard Lu Sheng's question, but still nodded.Serizawa Leila went to the police and surrendered after Baimonuto.However, drunk driving and hit-and-run, the surrender after a lapse of one year did not reduce her sentence much.Ichinose Qiao, who assisted her in destroying evidence to conceal the crime, will be prosecuted as a secondary crime.After the procuratorate prosecuted the two, the sensational death of Mana finally came to an end, and the media rushed away like crazy leeches, eager to scrape the two people's foundations to pieces.At the same time, due to the crackdown on the drug trafficking/drug case of Dikoji Co., Ltd., the news that their brokerage company cookiemusic gave their artists drug use leaked, Honjo Ren was also forced to rehabilitate the drug st and had no choice but to disband.

"I will go." Heizi sighed, "Student Dixiaolu and Jiugao will also go."

——Even if Mana forgives, I will never forgive.

At that time, Erica Futekoji who said this to him, although she was smiling on her pretty face, there was a dark poisonous fire burning in her eyes.

"I heard that the prosecutor's attorney this time is Kensuke Komimon. It seems that Serizawa Leila and Ichinose Qiao's sentences will not be shortened."

"Student Fuekoji convinced the procuratorate and lawyer Gu Meimen at the same time through Akashi-san's relationship. But I don't know if he paid for it or not."

After all, that lawyer Gu Meimen is famous for not seeing the money but not selling it.

"...She came out of the Juvenile Delinquency Center so soon?"

"Student Di Xiaolu was only 15 years old when she poisoned her sister. She was protected by the juvenile law. In addition, she pleaded guilty with a good attitude, so she was released from the correctional center two months ago."

Due to the Juvenile Law and Kuga Kaoru's strong public relations, Erika's poisoning/poisoning of Mana was not reported by the media.

"Aren't you unwilling?" Lu Sheng asked Heizi.

Heizi was silent for a moment, then turned his gaze out of the window.

"...My sister didn't resent her."

and……

"Such a result is already enough punishment for Di Xiaolu."

He knew the man's character.The fact that she couldn't get the punishment she deserved for hurting Mana was enough to make her miserable.She will spend the rest of her life atoning for her crimes.

"This is enough."

Nura Rikusheng nodded understandingly.

Vulcan Tai I turned my head and joined the conversation between the two.

"Today, that guy Qingfeng will come to play basketball, our friendly match with Tonghuang, would you like to come and see Nuliang?"

"No, I have something to do this afternoon. Say hello to Qingfeng and my classmates for a long time."

Aomine Daiki and Kuga Aoi officially dated not long ago.When Aoi catches up with Aomine to play and Jiu Wo Aoi has not announced, Aoi will disguise himself and come over to watch him play secretly. The relationship between the two is also an open secret in the Tonghuang basketball club.It is said that Aomine's teammates are very envious and jealous of him being able to associate with the popular idol, and Aomine's life in the basketball club is also considered to be in dire straits.

In the drug/drug incident, not only cookiemusic was found to have problems, but even Jiugaoi's agency Garia was exposed to the incident of using its artists to sell/drug.Jiugaoi terminated the contract with Garia and signed with lme company instead.Although President Taroda was very interested in throwing her into the club, Kugaoi firmly rejected President Taroda when he saw the dazzling pink uniform of the department.Since Kuga Kaoru was behind her smiling at Baotian with a ghostly face, Baotian had no choice but to give up this very attractive idea (for him).

Although he also terminated the contract with Garia, Kuga Kaoru did not follow Kuga Aoi to lme.To be precise, he has completely bid farewell to the entertainment industry, returned to work in the company of his elder brother Jiugaguang, and became the head of the marketing department in a short period of time.According to Jiugaoi, Jiugaguang scolded Mr. Xun severely after he knew what he had done, and brought him back to his company, telling him to "use his talents on the right way, don't torment you all day long." younger sister".Currently serving as Kugaoi's manager is Sha Koichi, Tsuruga Ren's manager.And the producer is the oldest and most legendary gold medal producer in lme.

And the first thing this new producer did after taking office was to invite Erica Dikoji back to bios.No one knows how he did it, but when Erika Futekoji appeared behind her at Kugaoi's new album concert, many fans cried on the spot.

Erika Futekoji's ruined voice is not coming back, just as many things will never be the same again.However, she is currently learning guitar from Kaoru Kuga, and will return to the team as a guitarist.It is said that when she was performing at the West Exit Park in Ikebukuro, she met a boy named Okazaki Shinichi, who was also a guitarist, and the two became good friends.

The past cannot be changed, but every day that follows is a new day.

The commercials of Ryota Kise and Kyoko Mogami are playing on the big screens in the streets of Tokyo. As a hot young model, Kise's career is getting better and better.However, he is studying hard recently, and it is said that his goal is to be a pilot in the Aviation University.

The big and small record stores on the roadside are covered with bios album posters.Under the huge bios word art on the poster, there is a pure white figure behind Aoi and Erica.Nura Rikusheng could recognize Mana at a glance.

That's how Kuga Aoi and Futekoji Erika remember Kuroko Mana.Never forget, always be with you.

And what about Nuliang Lusheng?

He often dreams of Mana.

That brief encounter was an all too real mirage.It's like a big dream. After waking up, everything is the same.

In the end, however, something was different.

For example, Lu Sheng often stares at the weeping cherry blossoms in the courtyard in a daze, for example, he never wants to go to the fox’s wedding banquet, for example, whenever the fox rains, his eyes will always drift to the door of the old house, for example, the moonlight is very good At night, he always likes to sit on a tree and drink alone, with two wine saucers.

What meaning did that girl who briefly appeared and disappeared in his life mean to him, because Lu Sheng refused to say, so no one knew.

However, only one thing is clear.

That was the phrase "I love you" he said to her at that time, definitely not a lie.

Maybe one day we will meet again.Maybe we will never meet again.Time turns everything into the unknown.

However, fortunately, he still has such a long time, which can be used to wait and choose.

☆、【HappyEnd · The Forever You Embrace】

【HappyEnd·The Forever You Embrace】

16 years later.

01

I heard a very nostalgic song.

Kugaoi raised her head in surprise and saw her daughter in the courtyard.The little girl was singing and watering the roses. She had just entered elementary school, and she had a face and long black hair very similar to her mother.Childish singing wafts through the courtyard in spring, as if covered with a layer of warm gold by the sun.What she sang was the same song that Kugaoi had heard that girl sing for her in that coffee shop many years ago.

"...

でいごの花も散りさざ波がゆれるだけ (Erythrina flower scattered microwave jiggle)

ささやかな兴せはうたかたの波の花 (Small happiness is like a wave of nothingness)

ウージの森森で歌った友よ (Friends who sing in the sugarcane forest)

ウージの下で八千代の别れ (I will say goodbye to you forever under the sugar cane)

......"

What a distant song that is.

The years are like a river, which flows tiredly and long, taking away the once intense feelings and the once youthful youth.However, there are always some things that will not disappear.They are like fragments of light, scattered in this river, flashing subtle rays of light.Those were really tiny brilliance, but she treasured them and kept them in her heart, never forgetting them.

Just like that day, in the sunset that seemed to dye the air orange, the figure of that girl singing.

Until now, many years later, it is still dazzling and unforgettable.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

Hearing her daughter's voice, Jiugaoi came back to her senses. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears and showed a nostalgic smile.

"It's just that I remembered a friend from long ago."

"That must be a nice guy."

Facing Aoi's surprised eyes, the little girl gave a slightly embarrassed smile.

"Because, mom, when you mentioned her, your eyes were very gentle."

Holding her daughter in her arms, Aoi said softly.

"Yeah, that's really a very good person."

02

With a bouquet of Rosemary roses in her arms, Erica Dixiaolu walked to the tombstone, quietly watching the smiling girl in the photo.She is 31 years old, and there are fine lines around her eyes, and the signs of aging have quietly climbed onto her hands.However, the girl in the photo is still the same as before. 16 years have passed, they are all old, but she is still a girl forever.

Presenting a bouquet of pure white flowers, Erica sat down with her back against the tombstone.

"I'm here to see you, Manna."

Habitually, she took out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket, lit one for herself and held it between her fingers but did not smoke. Erika raised her head and stared at the snow-white clouds flowing in the blue sky.

"Aoi's daughter is also in elementary school. During the opening ceremony, she sent the child to school with Aomine, and it caused a great sensation. Speaking of which, even now, I think it is incredible that Aomine can marry her I still remember that when Aoi said she was going to marry Aomine, Kaoru-kun's face turned green. It was the first time I saw Kaoru-kun showing that expression. Also, you should really see that Aoi is pregnant In the group photo of their family when they were together, Guangjun and Xunjun held a handful of gunpowder behind Qingfeng and pressed against his head, it was just hahaha."

So many years have passed, even the sensational BIOS lead singer's marriage turmoil (Aomine Daiki at least received thousands of threatening letters from fans for marrying a national idol), has gradually calmed down.Regarding the happy and stable married life of the two, most of the fans still expressed their blessings.Except for the period of pregnancy and childbirth, Aoi's career has not been greatly affected.After all, after Erica returned to BIOS 16 years ago, BIOS has gradually transformed from an idol group to a powerful band.Even without any promotion, the album can sell well after it comes out.Last year also opened a second world tour.After going through so many things, the two have been able to grasp the balance between business and art very well.

"I met your brother some time ago. We met in the mall by chance, and we went to drink coffee together. His wife is pregnant, and he came to buy baby products. Congratulations, you are going to be an aunt. "

The relationship between Erica and Kuroko, after the case of Mana was solved, became strangely relaxed, maintaining a delicate balance.Neither friend nor foe.

"Everyone is doing well, so don't worry."

Standing up, Erica said with a smile.Then, she reached out and touched the girl's face in the photo.

"I'm doing well too." She whispered, and then laughed again, "This sentence is a lie."

The wine-red eyes were slightly bent, and the smile lines climbed up the corners of the eyes, and she quietly leaned her forehead on the tombstone.

"I'm not happy right now, and I'm not unhappy. It's just that everything is in the past."

Yes, it's just that it's all over.

"I'm leaving, Mana."

03

Even though he has become a pilot, Kise Ryota still insists on playing basketball every week.Now, he is OneonOne with Vulcan Taime who just came back from the United States in the basketball hall.At the end of the round, Kise sat on the ground exhausted and gasped for breath, took the towel thrown to him by Vulcan and wiped the sweat off his face,

"Sure enough, he's a professional player in the NBA. He can't beat you at all."

"Nonsense. I've had a hard time in the NBA."

"I saw you on the sports channel some time ago. You played well, and the last slam dunk was really cool."

"You're not bad, Captain Kise."

Kise smiled, unscrewed the sports drink bottle, and finished a bottle in a few strokes.After drinking, he lay down on the ground indifferently, spread his hands and feet wide open, and looked at the ceiling of the basketball hall.

"Among our group, only you and Xiaoqingfeng have embarked on the career path."

Aomine Daiki retired a few years ago because of an old elbow injury. At that time, Kuwo Aoi went to the United States to see him because he was too worried about him. The scene of the two going out together was photographed by the paparazzi, and the relationship was exposed.Amid the uproar of public opinion, Kugaoi withstood the pressure and announced the news of her love affair with Aomine Daiki.Soon after, the two announced their marriage.

Heizi Tetsuya is a kindergarten teacher. I don't know whether to say it is unexpected or expected. He is very popular with children because he is quiet and calm and is also trusted by parents. When I was 26 years old, I fell in love with my school girl and got married. She was also quiet and got along very well with Heizi.The material conditions can't be said to be very superior, but when Kise visited Heizi's house as a guest, he could always feel that kind of peaceful happiness.

Akashi Seijuro inherited the family business as a matter of course, and was even rumored to have an affair with Erika Futekoji at one point - Kise broke into a cold sweat for Akashi when he heard the news.Even in his heart, Captain Akashi is omnipotent and will always stand at the top of the food chain, but as long as he thinks that the object is that Erica...he can't help but worry about Akashi, not just for personal safety, but from head to toe, from the inside to the inside. external concerns.Fortunately, the two of them broke up peacefully in the end. Kise breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the news—as God testifies, he has prepared a gift for visiting the intensive care unit.

Midorima Shintaro became a doctor, Murasakihara Atsushi opened a dim sum shop, and everyone had their own lives.As for Erika Fute Koji, although there were intermittent news about her dating with others after Akashi, most of them were very short-lived, so short that they could only be called dewy marriages.She has never been married.I visit Mana once a month.When Kise went to pay homage to Mana, she would occasionally meet her.

"How about you, how have you been these past few years?"

Vulcan poured himself a bottle of sports drink and asked Kise.Kise smiled and nodded.

"pretty good."

After all, we have to forget the dead to live after all.

That's the right way to live.

04

"I am back."

Hei Zizhe also opened the door and greeted the inside.

"You're back~"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at the coffee table smiled and nodded at him together.Heizi put down the bag in his hand, walked towards the Buddhist altar dedicated to Zhen Nai, tapped the monk's chime lightly, and clasped his hands together.

"I'm back, sister."

The girl in the photo was smiling, and the corners of Heizi's mouth couldn't help but relax, revealing a slight smile.

After returning to the living room, his wife and mother were sitting in front of the coffee table, looking at the dictionary with frowning faces. Seeing him coming, they quickly dragged him to the table, pointing to the dictionary and asking him for help.

"It's really difficult to come up with a name..."

"A name for an unborn child?"

Heizi thought for a moment.

"... How about calling it 'NOZOMI'?"

Hope, NOZOMI, hope.

"It seems pretty good..."

"It's really good, what do you think, old man?"

"Ah, it's okay."

"Then call it 'Wang'!" Heizi's mother touched her daughter-in-law's belly and smiled gently, "Please teach me more in the future, Xiao Wang."

Hei Zizhe also looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes softened.

We will usher in a new tomorrow.

06

Nanakuri Mana, 15 years old, her family moved from Amami City to Tokyo because of her father's job change.It's about to usher in my first day as a transfer student at Saotome Gakuen.

For Mana Nanakura, who dreamed of becoming a singer since she was a child, Saotome Gakuen is the perfect school.For her who has been learning jimabai from her grandmother and mother who are chanters since she was a child, it is very novel and interesting to be exposed to different singing styles.Because the principal of Saotome Academy has some friendship with her grandmother, she specially opened a back door for her. As long as she passes the entrance examination, she can enter the academy to study.Nanakuri Mana lived up to expectations and passed the test with a good result.

Because Nanakuri Mana hasn't got her new school uniform yet, she still changed into the sailor uniform she wore at her old school.A pure white sailor suit, the sailor collar is almost black navy blue, trimmed with two white edges, the skirt is the same color as the sailor collar, the skirt reaches below the knees, revealing the slender calves.

Making a cheering gesture to herself in the mirror, Nanakuri Mana went out with her schoolbag.

The long two three-strand braids hung behind her like a cat's tail. The girl was walking in the morning light, looking curiously at the scene on the streets of Tokyo while walking.When he walked to the bus stop, he even helped a female white-collar worker pick up her documents that had been left on the floor.

There is still a long ramp from the bus station to Saotome Gakuen. There are Yoshino cherry trees planted on both sides of the road. It is in the flowering period, and the flowering is just right.Nanakuri Mana looked at the cherry blossoms in the distance, lost her mind for some reason.From a long time ago, she had an illusion, as if there was something waiting for her under the cherry blossom tree.Just like a long-ago agreement, it doesn't make people afraid, but on the contrary, it makes people feel a little sad.

The spring breeze shakes the cherry branches, blows the flowers all over the ground like spring snow, and also shakes the girl's long hair.She subconsciously raised her hand to press down her temple hair, and when she regained consciousness, there was already a young man standing on the tree.

Nanakuri Mana has a secret.

She can see monsters.

While still in Amami City, she was friends with many of the local goblins.Because of this, she was not afraid of this young man who suddenly appeared on the cherry blossom tree.There was a slight smile on her fair face, and the girl's eyes were soft like the spring breeze blowing flowers and leaves at this moment.

"Sakura, it's beautiful."

Time seemed to stand still, only the sound of the wind was still clearly audible.

After a long time, the young man on the tree smiled.

"……yes."

The flower branches swayed, and the petals of the Yoshino Sakura fell down one after another. When they fell to the ground, it was as quiet as snow falling.The young man jumped down from the tree, put one hand on Nanakuri Mana's right shoulder, and his toes landed on the Sakura Fuki that covered the ground, silently.

The youth's voice rang in the girl's ears.Like a sigh.

"Finally, I met you."

"I heard from Ghost Lantern that you are a shop where wishes can come true. Can any wish really come true?"

Hearing this sentence, the dimensional witch Ichihara Yuko narrowed her eyes slightly, and the corners of her lips curled into an unpredictable arc.

"That depends on what price you pay."

Nuliang Lusheng was silent for a moment before continuing.

"I want to go back in time and save a person, can it be done?"

"can."

The voice of the witch in the dimension was indifferent, and her gaze on Lu Sheng was very unpredictable.

"However, the price is high."

"What price?"

The witch lowered her eyes slightly, staring at the reflection of the black tea in the teacup.It took a long time before he gave an answer.

"—You and her [destiny]."

The crimson eyes slowly lifted up, staring at Nura Rikusheng's face.

"Is that all right?"

Nura Rikusheng's breathing stopped for a moment.

"【edge】?"

Ichihara Yuko turned her head slightly, and turned her eyes to the distance, avoiding Nura Rikusheng's sight.

"Meeting is [fate]. Go against the current time and save her life, and you will lose the [fate] to meet her. Once the red thread of fate is cut off, it will never be connected again no matter what. If you lose [fate], you In this life, I will never meet her again. Even so, do you want to make a deal?"

Miss Yuko picked up the bong and took a puff, exhaled a long white smoke, watching the smoke rise and dissipate, her voice seemed so indifferent.

"I want you to think clearly. 'Wanting to be with her' and 'wanting to keep her alive' . . . are two completely different desires."

No matter how long it takes to wait, I want to be with her too.and.Even if I lose her forever, I want her to live.These are completely different, and can even be called diametrically opposite wishes.

Nuliang Rikusheng closed his eyes.

"...Even so, I want to trade."

Ichihara Yuko watched him quietly.

"Have you figured it out?"

Lu Sheng opened his eyes and nodded slowly.The boy's eyes are clear and firm, he has made up his mind.

"I hope she can live as Kuroko Mana, she is the best girl in the world and shouldn't die that way."

Miss Yuko nodded silently.

"I understand." She pushed the table away and stood up, "In that case, come with me."

Ichihara Yuko led Nuliang Rikusheng through the long corridor and into the courtyard.It was still sunny, but the sun began to rain. The rain washed the grass greener, and the air was filled with the smell of rain and soil.Lu Sheng looked at the rain screen and was slightly lost in thought, but one hand gently pushed behind him.

"It happens to be Fox Rain."

Signaling Lu Sheng to walk into the rain curtain, Yuko Ichihara raised his hand, and the abundant spiritual energy in the world surged, and a black magic circle suddenly rose under Lu Sheng's feet. In the intense air flow, time and space were distorted.

"I will send you back to before the girl died. Whether you can change her fate depends on yourself. Remember, you only have 9 hours, and you will come back here once the time is over."

The water flow twisted violently and gathered together, Lu Sheng looked over in surprise.

"Aren't you going to take the price?"

"Give it to me when you come back." The witch's voice almost sighed, "Now, let's go."

The water swirls and jumps towards the sky, time and space are violently distorted, the magic circle glows with dazzling light, and with that light, Lu Sheng disappears from the spot.

Jun Xun stood behind Yuko Ichihara on April [-]st, hesitantly opened his mouth.

"Wait until he comes back to collect the price...is it okay, Miss Yuko?"

Ichihara Yuko stared at the fading rainstorm and shook her head slightly.

"It's ok."

There was a look of melancholy in the crimson eyes.

"At least, let them meet once."

***

[Yeah, the poison|drug was put by me. 】

【As for the reason, Mana will definitely not understand. 】

Kuroko Mana quietly looked at the two emails on her phone.His fingers trembled a few times before he typed the first word on the phone keyboard.

'Ai...'

"It's dangerous to stand here."

A hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her from the side of the road to the inside.Mana raised her head in surprise, and found that standing in front of her was a strange boy.Wearing a blue kimono, he looked even more upright and handsome.Mana subconsciously followed his strength and took a few steps forward. After the other party let go, she bowed slightly to thank him.

【thanks. 】

"You're welcome, after all, that's what I'm here for."

The boy smiled at her, and Mana felt that his smile made people inexplicably worried about him.She put her finger to her lips and thought for a while, before deciding to ask the first question that popped into her mind.

【Do you know me? 】

After typing this sentence on the phone and handing it over, Mana tilted her head curiously.

"Yes, I know you." The young man smiled, "However, you haven't met me."

【Then, let me introduce myself.I am Kuroko Mana. 】

Mana smiled and stretched out her hand to him, seeing the puzzled look in the boy's eyes, she typed a sentence on the phone with the other hand and handed it over.

[Should we get to know each other from now on?what your name? 】

"... Lu Sheng (RIKUO). Just call me Lu Sheng."

RIKUO.

The girl silently said the name several times between her lips, and nodded slightly.Lu Sheng held the outstretched hand and looked at her with complex and unspeakable eyes.

"Sure enough, this is you."

'Eh? '

Mana opened her eyes slightly.There was a sudden pain in the back of the neck, and the eyes suddenly darkened.

The last words I heard were the boy's slightly apologetic "I'm sorry".

***

When Mana woke up, she found that she was in a completely unfamiliar Japanese room. A man with long silver and black hair was sitting beside her, wearing a blue kimono that she was familiar with. The moonlight shone on him. Reflecting his figure more and more lonely, the gilt golden eyes stared at her intently, as if staring at a dream that would soon dissipate.

"...RIKUO?"

Sensing something was wrong as soon as she opened her mouth, the girl subconsciously rubbed her throat, her eyes widened in surprise.

"my voice?"

"I asked a friend to help you cure your throat." Lu Sheng said lightly, "If you were invited directly, you would definitely not come, so I used some extreme means, sorry."

Mana's shoulders relaxed, and she sighed slightly.

"It's not good to do this, it's too scary." Mana smiled, "But thank you anyway."

"It's nothing. It's a pity if you can't hear such a good voice." Lu Sheng seemed to recall the music classroom under the sunset, the girl singing along with the piano, "That's the most beautiful voice I've ever heard. beautiful singing."

"Really..." Mana turned her head slightly, "By the way, how do you write RIKUO's name?"

Lu Sheng looked at her, grabbed her hand suddenly, and wrote Chinese characters on her palm.

"... Lu Sheng." Mana withdrew her hand, pressed it to her lips, and repeated the name, "It's Lu Sheng."

Just as Lu Sheng was about to say something, the ground suddenly shook.Mana wobbled a bit, grabbed his sleeve to sit still, Lu Sheng reached out to support her, raised his head and glanced out of the window, he didn't know what he saw, he narrowed his eyes with interest.

"It's General Blackfish's Hyakki Night Walk..." muttering to himself, Lu Sheng turned around and held out his hand to the girl, "So, do you want to see the cherry blossoms?"

"But it's September?"

Lu Sheng raised one corner of his lips, which made his smile look quite wanton, and his gilt pupils were so bright in the dark that they were almost magical.

"There are not only cherry blossoms on the land, but also in the sea." Lu Sheng looked at Mana with leisure, "How about it, do you want to go?"

Mana turned her head to the side and thought for a while, then reached out and held that hand, raised her face, a gentle smile appeared on her fair face.

"Then, I'll leave it to you."

Lu Sheng smiled, held her hand and pulled her into his arms, hugged her horizontally amid the girl's slightly surprised cry, and walked towards the door.Mana subconsciously clung to his shoulders to prevent herself from falling, raised her eyes, and met the man's smiling eyes.

"You don't seem to be afraid of me."

Mana was stunned, and then smiled: "I don't know why... I just think you won't hurt me. Besides, Lu Sheng saved me, didn't he? After seeing so many doctors about my throat, they said there was no way, and Lu Sheng cured it I, don't I?"

"...What, you semi-instinctive creature. Have you acted on your feelings so far? This is not possible, it is very dangerous." Lu Sheng put his hand on Mana's face, "Especially when facing a man like me. when."

Mana just looked at him quietly: "Then, will Lu Sheng do something bad to me?"

"..."

"No way." Mana smiled slightly, "That's enough."

Lu Sheng supported his forehead weakly, and sighed a long time.

"Really... I lost to you. Hold tight, we are leaving." Lu Sheng turned his head and shouted out the door, "Hey, is the car ready?"

"Huh?—Huh!"

The demon car burning with turquoise flames carried the two of them to the sky amidst the girl's exclamation. Mana leaned on the car window and looked down at the lights of Wanjia below, her eyes widened in surprise.

"It's so beautiful...will they see us?"

"No. Humans can't see Oboro."

Mana stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch the sky, and spread her five fingers as if she wanted to reach into the sea of ​​clouds. From Lu Sheng's perspective, the stars seemed to flow away from her fingers.That scene suddenly overlapped with the scene of her disappearance. Lu Sheng grabbed her hand subconsciously, and then let go as if he woke up.

"Sorry." Lu Sheng withdrew his hand and covered his face, "I just..."

Mana stretched out her hand and gently held Lu Sheng's hand.Her hands are so soft, continuously conveying the warmth that belongs to the living. Lu Sheng looked at her, but saw the girl showing a gentle smile.

"Although I don't know what you're thinking, but you...are a little sad now." Mana pulled his hand closer, and looked at him tenderly, "It's okay. No matter what you are thinking, you will be fine. Because you are a land student, there is absolutely no problem."
