Tokyo Girlfriend Illustrated Book

"Before I read that book, it had nothing to do with me. It was no different from thousands of other books. They were all things I wouldn't even look at even if I had insomnia. But when I read it, I would even talk about it at a time like this, when I was happy."

Yamauchi Sakura's voice seemed a little ethereal in the bathroom, just like the white steam that kept drifting to the courtyard along the air flow.

"Do you really feel happy now?" Mitsuha asked coldly.

Sakura turned her head in surprise and said in surprise: "Huh? Mitsuha, when did you become so strict? I bet even Yukino must feel happy today."

Yukinoshita Yukino turned her face away quietly. She didn't want to lie or admit that she was really happy today.

Well, there was no need to ask now. Mitsuha knew the answer in an instant. Because she was also very happy.

"Hahaha, that's it. On a day like today, it's just the Earth orbiting the moon... the sun... etc... it's rotating!"

Sakura's voice suddenly rose as she spoke, and she slapped the water in surprise:

"Today, the Earth actually rotated by itself!"

Her voice was full of emotion, the kind of happiness that made her want to cry.

"Hey, Mitsuha! Yukino! Today! Today, the Earth didn't just keep rotating around the sun, but rotated by itself! It's amazing, it's already a mature Earth, you know!"

Sakura held Mitsuha in one hand and Yukino in the other, asking with surprise.

"..."

"..."

The two people whose arms were grabbed looked at each other from a distance, and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

This guy, is his head confused from soaking in the hot spring?

Although they thought so in their hearts, they were very wise and didn't choose to talk to each other. Who knows if Sakura would lead the topic to publish a paper to announce this great discovery to the world in the next second. The best thing to do at this time is to ignore Yingliang. Her interest is always in waves, and it will soon fade away if no one pays attention to it.

Sure enough, the next second Yingliang gave up the great research of studying the earth and returned to her topic.

"The strong and mature, brave and confident earth turned a circle, so we got a day. There is nothing special about such a day. After all, there is tomorrow after today, and there is the day after tomorrow after tomorrow. But today is different. Today, I, Xiao Xueno, Mitsuha, Kyosuke...we went out to play together on the Victory Swallow, so today became very special.

My time, my existence, is because I am happy with everyone, quarreling, eating and drinking, and shopping together, and I feel it myself.

It's not that my existence depends on others, but..."

Yamauchi Sakura frowned in distress and shouted:

"Anyway, you understand, just like "The Little Prince", just like this day when the earth rotates, it's because I and everyone chose each other, so we are connected and become special."

Yukinoshita Yukino frowned tightly, as if there were countless broken threads in her head, and she was desperately connecting the same thread together.

In her life plan, she will definitely take philosophy as an elective in college in the future, and must study for a master's degree in philosophy after graduating from college, so she had a lot of feelings about Sakura's words in an instant.

Miyamizu Mitsuha also frowned, but she quickly spoke:

"Kyosuke once said to tease Yotsuha that we should learn to listen to the sounds of food, so that the dishes will become more delicious. You all know how serious that guy is when he teases people, so Yotsuha believed it.

Since then, Yotsuha pays special attention to the origin information every time she goes shopping in the supermarket. If it is convenient, she will ask the supermarket staff. If it is not convenient, she will check the food labels herself. If she buys beef, she will even find videos of local ranches to learn about the grass that cattle eat..."

"Yotsuha told me that she can taste the unique flavor of the cattle's hometown. ..."

Miyazu Mitsuha said in a complicated tone:

"She often regrets that if she could communicate with the pigs and cows while they are alive, or simply raise them directly, she would definitely be able to eat more delicious meat."

"Hahahaha, Kashiko-san will definitely agree with this!"

Sakura laughed, after all, Kashiko's catchphrase is "I'll treat you to a meal when the cows at home grow up."

Yukinoshita couldn't help laughing, Hojo Kyosuke and Yamauchi Sakura were both as unscrupulous as her sister, and they were not too serious about teasing people. She had no doubt that these guys would jump off the building first in order to trick people into jumping off the building. They just had such awareness.

"Although Kyosuke's words were meant to tease Yotsuba, in my family... I mean, in the teachings of my family's Miyamizu Shrine, the so-called gods are the connection between people and everything. Drinking barley tea will make us connect with the earth and plants, and the house we live in needs to live in harmony with the land...

I think that's what you mean, Sakura?"

Sanye touched her hair subconsciously while speaking, but she didn't touch the orange and red knotted rope. Although she didn't have the same connection as Kyosuke, she undoubtedly had a connection with Sakura and the others. If she hadn't exchanged souls with Kyosuke, then Sakura would be just a stranger to her like everyone else in the world, and they wouldn't be able to sit in the same pool and enjoy the hot springs.

Thinking of this, the miko lady's eyebrows became very gentle. Even if it is just a small thing like sitting on a bus by chance, if you realize how rare it is, it is enough to move people, let alone someone like them, becoming Even if you like a man, you won't hate each other's best friends. If you think about it carefully, it's like the goddess of luck is always floating in your head.

The emotions she had accumulated on the table tennis table disappeared without a trace in an instant. She slowly turned her head and looked at Yamauchi Sakura gently, but she saw a pair of confused eyes.

"Um?"

Mitsuba frowned, and Sakura nodded quickly and praised: "That's right, that's it! I'm so touched!"

Yukino didn't speak. She was trying to understand the thoughts of the two people beside her.

"Anyway, you both asked me once, aren't you scared?"

Sakura spoke again. None of the three mentioned that incident, but they all knew it.

"Of course I'm scared. I'm so scared that I'm shaking all over."

She said slowly in a bright voice:

"To be honest, when I was very young, I can't remember whether I was in third grade or fourth grade. I watched a movie at Kyousuke's house. It was a horror movie. I can't remember the name clearly. In short, it was the kind of movie with clothes on Big-breasted beauties in bikinis, and movies with screaming and ketchup flying everywhere. Although I can’t remember the content, but in terms of breasts and figure, the heroine is probably not as good as Shiyu, but compared to you, Yukino..."

"Idiot! Let's get down to business!"

"Hi hi hi~~"

Sakura smiled.

Although Yukino's tone was stern, at this time she also understood why Sakura was always talking about such serious things, but she always interrupted them with nonsense words. It wasn't that she had ADHD and couldn't control her thoughts, but that she was using this method to ease her and Sanye's emotions.

That guy, she was worried that the heavy pressure would make herself and Miss Miyamizu sad...

The evidence for this inference is that the miko lady over there was in a significantly calmer mood than when she left the entertainment room with a gloomy face.

Of course, it's also possible that Yamauchi Sakura himself couldn't... couldn't bear the pressure of seriously discussing that time.

but! That's no reason for this guy to joke about his size!

"At that time, a very powerful question suddenly popped into my head, why should those people be afraid?"

Yamauchi Sakura said:

"Why should you be afraid of those supporting characters who run around screaming and then die easily?"

"Because a murderer is chasing them?"

"Of course this is the reason, Yukino-chan, please don't treat me like an idiot!"

"Speak quickly, or I'll leave if you keep trying."

As soon as Miyamizu Mitsuha heard this, he immediately organized: "No! Yukino, you can't leave. I absolutely don't want to be tortured by this guy alone."

Sakura held each person's arm with both hands and expressed with practical actions that no one was allowed to leave. She said in an erratic voice:

"I know those people ran away because they were afraid of being killed. What I'm confused about is why they were afraid of being killed and why they were afraid of death."

Yukino and Mitsuha both had expressions of understanding on their faces. Although the fear of death is engraved in human genes, if a kindergarten child has never seen a gun or a knife, she doesn't know what these things will do to her. What kind of injury, then when she saw a pervert walking towards her with a knife and gun, maybe before the knife and gun came, the only thought that appeared in her head was "What does this uncle want to do?" To outsiders, she might look like a mentally retarded child, but in fact, she had no idea that the weapon would bring her death.

At that time, Sakura was thinking about why death was so scary. In other words, what is death.

"You all know that Kyousuke has been very smart since he was a child."

Appeared, appeared, appeared, exclusive lines for childhood sweethearts!

Sanye subconsciously thought that if Ying Lili heard this, she would immediately become jealous.

"Kyosuke made me understand the horror of death with just one sentence."

Sakurara's words made both Mitsuha and Yukino open their eyes. It was unusual for a third-grade child to clearly understand the meaning of death.

The girl blinked and turned her face left and right. Her bright amber eyes glanced back and forth on the faces of Mitsuha and Yukino. She was very satisfied with the seriousness they showed towards her boy.

She cleared her throat and sat up straighter.

"Death means that you and I will not be able to meet each other tomorrow."

Yamauchi Sakura said this, or in other words, Hojo Kyosuke said this to her many years ago.

"Death means that you and I will not be able to meet each other tomorrow."

Mitsuha Miyamizu subconsciously repeated in a low voice.

die? tomorrow? Can you and I never meet again?

This is nonsense. Is there still tomorrow after death?

However, she had experienced...or rather, seen that terrifying other timeline in Kyosuke's body. It is very clear that when she stood on a hill in Itomori Town and watched the comet falling from the sky towards her, she shouted loudly at that time:

"生まれ変わってまた会いたい!" (Even if I am reincarnated, I want to meet you again!)

The strongest desire that bursts out under the fear of death is both desire and fear. I still want to see you again in the next life, but what I’m afraid of is that I won’t be able to see you again after death.

This is truly the truest understanding of death.

Suddenly, Mitsuha Miyamizu felt as if his heart was being pinched by someone, and it hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.

She closed her eyes in pain, and two lines of clear tears silently fell from the corners of her eyes.

"Kyosuke, she..."

The girl whispered softly.

She couldn't imagine how Kyousuke felt when he saw her tragic death. The pain she felt in empathy at the moment was only one tenth less than that. And at that time, Kyousuke still had hope, he knew that he had successfully changed the future.

But, what about Sakura now?

She knew she was going to die, and she knew she would soon have a tomorrow where she wouldn't be able to see Kyousuke. How scared she must be.

If it were me, if on the day I took the train to Tokyo...if I knew at that time that I was going to die under a comet that night, would I still choose to go to Tokyo to meet Kyosuke?

If he had not given the headband to Kyousuke at that time, Kyousuke would no longer exchange souls with him; if he had not exchanged souls, Kyousuke would no longer be so sad when he died.

This is still under the premise that there is already hope of changing destiny.

At this moment, Miyamizu Mitsuha understood Yamauchi Sakura.

Because she gave the answer in her heart.

She wanted to knock that idiot to the ground and wake her up, but she finally realized that the real idiot was herself.

Sakura, how on earth did she do it, and why can she still smile so happily?

Mitsuha Miyamizu was sure that the smiles on Sakura's face she saw were sincere and full of happiness.

Thinking this, she asked doubtfully.

"Of course it's because I'm happy!"

Yamauchi Sakura answered casually, and then spoke eloquently:

"You all should be able to understand how scary this sentence is. I was so scared that I cried on the spot. Even though Kyosuke made me three desserts in a row, he didn't stop even though he had finished eating them. By the way, I'm telling you Let me tell you a little secret, no matter how delicious the dessert is, it will become unpalatable if saliva is mixed in it, so I was even more sad at the time.”

"Nonsense, eating while crying will not only cause tears, but also risk choking, and it's not good for digestion."

Yukino complained subconsciously. Her head was full of all kinds of messy thoughts at the moment, and she said this completely subconsciously.

Sakura was obviously very satisfied with the praise. She didn't look at the complicated expression on Mitsuba's face. (End of chapter)
