Kaori Miyazono changed out of her hospital gown after a long time and dressed up a little.

To be honest, all I did was ask my mom to help me wash my body and hair, and then I changed into my school uniform.

Sitting on the hospital bed, I looked out the window with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, patiently waiting.

At this time, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

The next moment, several doctors in white coats walked in.

Noticing her dejection, the attending physician, after examining her body, slowly spoke:

“Ms. Miyazono, your physical condition is no longer suitable for walking around, but considering that today is indeed a very important day, after much consultation, we will reserve ten minutes for you.”

"The school officials will be here soon, and we will accompany them throughout your graduation ceremony."

"If you feel unwell, please let us know immediately. Graduation can be postponed, but illness waits for no one."

"Yes, thank you, I understand." Kaori Miyazono nodded with a smile. "I still want to chat with Arima-kun, and I have a lot to say. I won't force myself."

"That's good. If you take good care of yourself, the success rate will increase on the day of the surgery."

"Would the success rate have been higher if the surgery had been performed a day earlier?"

"You don't need to worry about that. After comprehensive consideration, we believe that April 1st, a month from now, is the most suitable time for the surgery."

"It feels a little strange to have surgery on April Fool's Day," Kaori Miyazono couldn't help but chuckle.

During our conversation, there was another knock on the door.

The next moment, the principal and teachers of Sumiya Middle School, along with the Musashino group including Masamune, entered, led by Arima Kousei.

"Excuse me, Miyazono-kun."

Principal Mogu whispered a few words to the doctor, then slowly walked to the side of Miyazono Kaoru's bed.

“Principal…” Kaori Miyazono opened her mouth but couldn’t say a word. After struggling to get out of bed, she gripped her skirt tightly with both hands.

She was actually quite touched; she hadn't expected the principal to come and hold a graduation ceremony just for her.

But more than anything, I felt uneasy and guilty. Had my performance really met the graduation standards? Could I really graduate normally like this?

"Miyazono-kun, you are the pride of our school. Thanks to you and Arima-kun, our school's enrollment will be much easier in the next few years."

"Despite insufficient attendance, due to your outstanding contributions and the fact that you have already secured a recommendation for high school admission, our school has decided to hold Kaori Miyazono's graduation ceremony now."

After receiving the graduation certificate from the homeroom teacher, and with another teacher in position holding a camera, Principal Mogu slowly handed the graduation certificate to Kaoru Miyazono.

At the same time, the camera accurately captured this scene.

"Congratulations on graduating from Mokutani Middle School, Kaoru Miyazono. Good luck in your upcoming high school life."

"Yes, thank you very much, Principal."

Although she felt like crying, Kaori Miyazono was mostly happy, so she smiled as she pleased.

The camera on one side captured the scene again with pinpoint accuracy.

Following the principal, the homeroom teacher continued:

"Miyazono-kun, I've always seen your hard work. Although you got a high school recommendation through your violin performance, you've fallen too far behind in your academic studies."

"Therefore, if you need any make-up lessons later, you can call me. All the teachers, including myself, will be available whenever you call."

"Yes, thank you very much." Kaori Miyazono bowed her head slightly again.

To avoid disturbing Kaori Miyazono too much, the school staff left the ward in an orderly manner after handing out the graduation certificates and waited outside.

Meanwhile, the Musashino group also stepped forward to talk to Kaori Miyazono.

Although they have a very close relationship, because the anime needs to keep it a secret from Kaori Miyazono, both Masamune and Mashiro claim to be related to Kousei Arima.

"I didn't expect Arima-kun to have an uncle in addition to his cousin." Kaori Miyazono looked at Director Nakamura with surprise. "My name is Kaori Miyazono. Nice to meet you."

“I am Arima-kun. I am very grateful for your help.” After returning the greeting, Director Nakamura continued, “Ms. Miyazono will have many more opportunities to interact with us in the future, so I am just here to say hello. Please take care of me in the future.”

"Kaoru, do you still remember me?" Shizuka Sakaki stepped forward.

"Of course, I've always been very surprised that Arima-kun has such a beautiful older cousin. However, Shizuka-nee only came once, and she's never come back since."

"I'm quite busy with work, and besides, I'm also trying to avoid bothering you and Arima."

"They're cousins, so why does my cousin Sakaki always call him by his surname, Arima-kun?"

"Because I only met Arima recently. Before that, I had been living in Yamagata Prefecture. I had only recently arrived in Tokyo and had just learned that I had a cousin."

"Mmm... I understand that feeling."

After looking at Shizuka Sakaki, Kaori Miyazono turned her gaze to Masamune and Mashiro.

"Why are you all here? Have you finished the previous painting?"

"I've finished drawing it. We'll look at it together after you recover," Mashiro said softly.

"Sure. Next time, could you draw a scene from a performance I did with Arima-kun?"

"can."

"Huh...? You've seen our performance before?"

"No."

"Well... I'll let you know in advance if there's another performance, so please be sure to come and visit."

"Ah."

"By the way! Let's exchange contact information, that way it will be easier to keep in touch later."

Kaori Miyazono subconsciously searched her body, then suddenly realized what she had done and sighed helplessly:

"Arima-kun, why did you and my parents confiscate my phone? It's so inconvenient not having a phone."

"Don't think I don't know that the radiation from a cell phone is negligible."

"Give me back my phone."

“No.” Arima Kousei said without hesitation, then glanced at Masamune. “We can’t take even the slightest risk. Don’t worry, I’ll add Shiina as a contact person on your phone so you can contact her later.”

"That's too much! So Arima-kun has such a strong personality? I misjudged you."

Kaori Miyazono pouted, then turned to Mashiro and asked with a smile:

"How did you know I was at this hospital? You two aren't related to Arima-kun, are you?"

Mashiro glanced at Masamune instinctively, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Masamune was taken aback for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

Previously, whether it was contacting hospitals or attending graduation ceremonies, I had never met with Kaori Miyazono directly; I had contacted either her parents or Kousei Arima.

Therefore, from Kaori Miyazono's perspective, the two of them and she only met once in the park.

"No, we are your relatives."

"Huh...? My cousins?"

"That's how it is. If you don't believe me, you can call your parents."

"You're so mean, saying that even though you know my phone was confiscated. But, well... I trust you. Please take care of me from now on, cousin."

"Me too, nice to meet you."

Chapter 123 Tomoya Okazaki, whose entire life was filled with regret

After chatting for a while, Masamune and the others left the ward, leaving more time for Kaori Miyazono and the others.

As they were about to leave the hospital, Masamune noticed that Mashiro had suddenly stopped in her tracks, and he instinctively looked in the direction she was looking.

At the edge of her vision, a man was standing on the road smoking.

He was probably in his early twenties, but he was unshaven and unkempt, completely lacking the energy and spirit expected of someone his age. Instead, he looked like a middle-aged man.

It's just an ordinary scene of someone standing and smoking, but it inexplicably gives people a feeling of despair so great that they can't even stand up straight.

From Masamune's eyes, he could tell that she wasn't thinking about anything else; she was simply considering what the scene would look like when drawn.

It must be said that, as someone who doesn't paint often, Masamune also felt that this scene was extremely vivid.

After a moment's thought, he pulled Mashiro along and went up to strike up a conversation:

"You look familiar. Have we met somewhere before? My name is Hayase Masamune. What's your name?"

“Okazaki Tomoya.” The man glanced at Mashiro behind Masamune and silently stubbed out his cigarette.

"Huh…?"

Masamune looked surprised, and after a few seconds of stunned silence, he suddenly realized what was happening.

Previously, he had considered producing CLANNAD next season, but because he didn't know where Hikari-zaka Town, where the people involved lived, was located, and because the people involved were not celebrities, he ultimately decided to postpone the production.

Unexpectedly, I met the male lead here.

Judging from his age, the story is clearly over, so it's unclear which storyline this Okazaki Tomoya belongs to.

"I was fortunate enough to see one of your drama club's performances before. How is Nagisa Furukawa doing now?"

“Nagisa… has passed away.”

"Excuse me, when did this happen?"

"That was five years ago."

Is it Tomoya Okazaki from the main storyline?

"I see... Did you come to the hospital because someone in your family is sick? If there's anything I can help you with, please don't hesitate to ask."

"...Can you lend me some money?"

"can."

? ?

Okazaki Tomoya was slightly taken aback, and it took him a while to recover.

These days, he has been trying to raise money everywhere to treat his daughter's illness, and he has contacted everyone he could.

But after searching through all my relatives and friends, I still found that there was still a big difference.
