Chapter 48 Missing You (Seeking votes and continued reading)

Inside a reasonably sized hotel.

Away from Tokyo.

Kitagawa Ayane arrived at her destination around 9 p.m., and was given an admission pass and hotel room key by the staff of the economic seminar.

She pushed open the door and entered.

I entered the hotel room with a bit of discomfort.

Look back again.

The female staff member who led her there had disappeared down the corridor.

Kaka-

She almost subconsciously turned on all the lights, and the entire suite was suddenly brightly lit, with every corner bathed in soft light.

Kitagawa Ayane stared blankly at the light above her head, the light illuminating her cascading black hair and turning a few strands of hair on her forehead golden.

He was stunned for a moment.

She then remembered to put down her backpack, take off her dirty black leather shoes that she had been wearing outside, and put them on the shoe rack along with her phone.

The schoolbag was placed on the shoe rack next to the entrance, and the shoes were placed below it. After doing all this...

Kitagawa Ayane's feet, clad in black over-the-knee socks, touched the ground.

She felt a smooth and warm coolness.

Anyway, we finally arrived at our destination.

Kitagawa Ayane, however, was completely confused about her own feelings at that moment.

She lowered her head.

She felt neither excitement nor joy at the impending achievement of her goal. Faced with this suite, which was much larger and better than she had imagined, she didn't even feel like walking around and looking at it. To be precise, the first feeling that welled up in her heart was confusion.

Then, she felt very disappointed.

A sense of loss and abandonment.

Her heart felt empty, as if it had withered and dried up without blood. She couldn't feel a vibrant beating; she only felt that her light and shriveled heart was falling into an abyss like a fallen leaf.

It fell for a long time, but never reached the bottom.

This endless cycle continues, sinking ever deeper.

Perhaps they were too tired from the journey and didn't get enough rest.

Kitagawa Ayane thought to herself.

She felt she should take a shower to clean herself up and refresh her groggy head. Besides, it was already late, so she should rest a bit before reviewing her speech. Time was actually very tight.

She walked to the edge of the bed, lifted her little bottom, and sat on the soft bed, starting to quietly take off her over-the-knee socks.

It was carelessly thrown on the ground.

Then came short skirts, tops, safety shorts, and bras.

One by one.

Finally, he wrapped himself in a pure white bath towel and quickly walked barefoot into the shower room.

Turn on the switch.

Warm water sprayed from the showerhead, pouring down her head and slowly flowing over her entire body. She simply tilted her head back, letting the water engulf her mouth and nose, as white steam gradually filled the entire shower room.

After a series of "whooshing" sounds of flowing water.

She came out drying her hair, followed by the sound of a hairdryer on the vanity.

Perhaps I should try on the clothes.

She thought this after drying her hair.

She borrowed a small suit jacket from Kaoru Murayama to wear to her speech the next day, but she hadn't tried it on yet and figured it wouldn't fit well, since Kaoru was shorter than her and her size was smaller.

He took out neatly folded clothes from another bag in his schoolbag.

In front of the full-length mirror.

Soon, Kitagawa Ayane was completely transformed. She wore a neatly tailored blazer with clean hem and collar, and long trousers that were fitted at the waist and stretched taut by her thigh muscles.

Turn around and look to the side.

She felt that she had suddenly gained a more mature air.

It's quite suitable.

She thought about it and took off her clothes.

So what should we do next?

Kitagawa Ayane asked herself.

She quickly folded the clothes back and put them away. She took out her speech and looked at it. Her diary was also put out and placed on the table, but the pen remained untouched.

It's still that feeling...

Unexpected.

Kitagawa Ayane suddenly scanned the entire suite, her gaze sweeping over every corner. She looked left and right, appearing rather neurotic.

Lingering.

She felt a lump in her throat.

Pain, discomfort, loneliness, and despair caused her to furrow her beautiful brows.

What an unfamiliar place this is! Why did she come here? In the blink of an eye, she has crossed hundreds of kilometers, and she has suddenly lost her sense of geography, not understanding what kind of space she is in.

The world we are familiar with.

It was as if she had vanished, never to be found again. She had passed through the thick barrier of time and space, growing further and further away from her home.

Kitagawa Ayane hurriedly got up and paced around the suite, sometimes staring blankly, sometimes standing still.

After a while.

A slight smile played on her lips, and her eyes began to redden. A tear uncontrollably streamed down her cheek, and she collapsed to the ground, hugging her knees tightly.

She had never felt so anxious and helpless.

After shedding tears for a moment, Kitagawa Ayane suddenly remembered something and quickly started looking for her phone in the suite.

She lifted the covers, rummaged through her schoolbag, pulled the headboard, went to the shower, and even flipped through the clothes she had just folded.

The more they couldn't find her, the more anxious they became, and the more anxious they became, the less they could find her.

At last.

I finally found my phone on the shoe rack where I changed shoes.

With trembling hands, she clicked the screen to open LINK. At that moment, seeing Lin Ze's name in her contact, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She now knew why she was feeling so bad.

Because there is no Linze in this city.

She has no doctor, only her illness.

Without much thought, and not wanting to think, Kitagawa Ayane clicked the button to make a temporary call, then sat on the floor and waited quietly.

on the screen.

It shows that a call is being made.

Kitagawa Ayane was filled with anxiety and anticipation, staring intently at the screen as she waited.

It was accompanied by a "ding-dong" sound.

Kitagawa Ayane's eyes lit up. She eagerly bit her moist lips, brought the phone close to her ear, and looked on with anticipation.

"Hello, what's up?" A calm voice came from the other end.

The moment she heard that voice, Kitagawa Ayane's shoulders suddenly relaxed.

An irrepressible joy shone in her eyes.

"you you."

"What's wrong with me?" Lin Ze asked, puzzled, on the other end of the phone.

“Dr. Lin,” Kitagawa Ayane suddenly felt very wronged, and she whispered, “I… feel very uncomfortable.”

She was naked, hugging her knees.

But I didn't feel anything was wrong at all, and was completely absorbed in the phone call.

What exactly is causing the discomfort?

"I don't know, I just feel like my heart is empty."

"Can't sleep?"

"I haven't tried sleeping yet."

"Have you written in your diary?"

"No..." she said cautiously.

"If you don't write it, don't blame me for being ruthless later."

“I know~” Kitagawa Ayane’s voice softened instantly as she blurted out.

There was a brief silence.

She pouted her moist lips slightly, as if complaining about Lin Ze's heartlessness.

"Dr. Lin, what is our next treatment plan?" Kitagawa Ayane asked, trying to make conversation.

I'll let you know when the time comes.

Are you asleep?

"No, I'm reading a book."

"If I lied... you wouldn't really turn against me, would you?"

"You still want to lie?"

"No, no, no... I was just, just asking." Kitagawa Ayane guiltily moved her phone further away.

Even if they are hundreds of miles apart, there is only the connection of signals.

She still instinctively felt fear.

"No, but if I say it will delay your treatment, then it will be delayed."

"Doctor Lin..."

"You said."

"Talking to you makes me feel much better, and I feel much more comfortable," she whispered.

"Yes, try to control yourself and don't let your behavior change, even if it makes you feel good. Always remember that."

"I will be obedient."

"Is there anything else?" Lin Ze asked from the other end of the line.

"Dr. Lin, your voice is so beautiful," she whispered, her voice barely audible, her face flushed.

This is almost unlike any other Kitagawa-senpai.

Being in a foreign place, she was incredibly sensitive and even realized her dependence on Lin Ze.

"I'll hang up now if there's nothing else."

"But I have one last thing to say."

"I'm listening," Lin Ze said patiently.

Kitagawa Ayane hesitated for a moment, then raised the phone's microphone, parted her lips slightly, and raised her delicate cheeks.

Her gaze flickered and shifted, finally settling into a blush.

"Dr. Lin, I wanted to say... the dog misses you..."
