I am the emotional sustenance of your deceased

It’s really... a long detour.

You will never understand me, and you will never know how torturous it is to travel alone.

But even so, it doesn’t matter.

At the very end, the most passionate tear fell from the corner of Yao Lenai's eye.

It dripped into the river, and in an instant it seemed to boil the whole world.

【it's over. 】

"I took out a lot of trash for you, do you despise me?"

Lenai felt like she was acting coquettishly. She was clearly no longer a little girl, but she was still acting coquettishly in a little girl's voice.

So shameful.

"No, we are friends, and this is what friends should do."

"When I feel sad in the future, I will choose to talk to Lenai," Chitose smiled and brushed Lenai's hair aside, revealing her small and delicate face. "I hope Lenai can push me into the water so that you won't see my tears."

"it is good."

Are you still comforting me after all this? Stupid Chitose.

Being led ashore by hand, Chitose looked at the swaying green dots in the distance, shook her head, and invited Kaname:

"How about going to my house to eat..."

"want."

"puff."

The answer was really quick.

"But I'm tired."

Le Nai stretched out like a cat: "Hold my hand and walk with me."

……

Under the cover of night, the girl dragged the smaller girl along and trotted home.

Chitose Noshiro fulfilled her promise to Rakuna Kaname.

At the beginning of summer, she will return from Hida and return to Kaname Rakuna.

Although, the fulfillment of this promise was not in the simulation, and too many years had passed since the promise was made.

But at least it was fulfilled, wasn't it?

"Xiao Lenai, you just said something wrong."

"what?"

Kaname Rakuna looked at Noshiro Chitose in confusion, who turned her head away and slightly opened her lips:

"Your summer isn't over."

"because…"

"Our summer has just begun."

Ch430. Hiding in the sunset, a lonely outsider

The time goes back to more than an hour ago.

At that time, the bell for the end of get out of class in Tsuki no Mori rang, and everyone said goodbye to each other gently. The words that reflected their upbringing became more three-dimensional with the blessing of honorifics.

"Su Shi, see you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow, Shinomiya-san."

Words like these surrounded Wakaba Mu. When someone said goodbye to her, she would respond to each one in a measured manner.

But if Ye Mu’s mind is not here.

She wanted to play the guitar, and this desire was hard to suppress, but she also wanted to go somewhere——

"The watering can is gone."

It only took a few minutes to reach the Horticulture Department, and when he arrived, Wakaba Mu found that his former bandmate Nagasaki Suyo was also there.

Nagasaki Suyo is her friend, a very good friend.

But Nagasaki Suyo didn't like to communicate with her recently, and didn't visit her in the gardening department very often.

The gardening department of Tsuki no Mori was once very prosperous, and many excellent gardening works were even sent for exhibitions.

But just like Crychic, after the glory came the endless darkness and sadness. There would no longer be afternoon tea gatherings discussing music scores, and similarly, the Gardening Club no longer had any members other than Wakaba Mutsu.

Except for one person—

"Su Shi, why are you here today?"

"Because you're thinking about harvesting cucumbers, can Xiaomu do it alone?"

"It works."

"..."

Nagasaki Suyo in front of him became visibly embarrassed, but Mu actually meant that he didn't want the other party to be tired.

Su Shi has been acting strangely lately.

If we count from two weeks ago, Su Shi was just an ordinary divorced wife. Although she had a lot of resentment, she was not so bad that Mu would call her "weird".

But starting from one day two weeks ago, her partner Nagasaki Suyo seemed like a different person.

No, it should be said that it was like being possessed...

"Su Shi go and rest, I'll take care of it."

He retrieved his watering can and found out that it had been taken away by the department next door. Wakaba Mu stood beside Nagasaki Suyo without any temper and carefully pulled the former's sleeves a few times.

"It's okay, let me help you."

"..."

[That's terrible, Nagasaki Suyo.]

Two weeks ago, Wakaba Mu remembered that Nagasaki Suyo suddenly did not come to school for several days in a row.

And when he saw Su Shi again after the period without him ended, he was completely a different person.

One person is in a daze, one person is smiling foolishly, one person is feeling sorry for himself, one person is crying bitterly, one person is overjoyed, and another person is muttering to the air.

All this was discovered only by Wakaba Mutsu, who had been observing Nagasaki Suyo. For this reason, she had to continue to bury that terrifying possibility deep in her heart.

【Su Shi, maybe she has a mental illness.】

very scary!

Su Shi was suddenly so nice to her today. Did he have any requests to make to her?

Mu went forward to harvest cucumbers with Su Shi. She was anxiously waiting for Su Shi to speak.

In the past, Su Shi had been friendly with her just to find out about Xiangzi, but she hadn't seen Xiangzi since she left Noshiro's house a few days ago.

Although Ruoye Mu had a blank expression on her face and her hands never stopped moving, her mind was actually full of the scenes of that day.

At that time, her face was flushed due to excitement and fatigue after the performance, and Xiangzi was shocked when she saw it.

Since then, he could no longer contact Toyokawa Shoko, and Wakaba Mu always felt that he was blocked by Shoko.

But Mu asked Xiangzi's good neighbor and his good friend Noshiro Chitose, and Chitose said that Xiangzi was at work and was bullied by her, so he had no time to reply.

[Oh, you just don't have time to reply. That's fine.]

Mu tilted his head to look at Su Shi, holding a dozen cucumbers in his hand.

They are fat and look a bit like amputated loofahs.

So, today...Su Shi will ask——

"I've finished picking. I'm leaving now because I have an appointment. Xiao Mu, is it okay for you to go home by yourself?"

Su Shi looked as if he had accomplished something great. He wiped the dust off his hands elegantly with a handkerchief, turned around and handed over the bagged cucumber army.

"Oh. Oh. Okay. I can get home on my own. See you later, Sushi."

"Goodbye, see you tomorrow!"

Nagasaki Suyo...the classmate who was suspected of having split personality and schizophrenia just walked away like this. Wakaba Mutsu, who stayed behind with two large bags of cucumbers, watched blankly as the other party disappeared at the school gate.

"Really gone..."

Mu walked around with the bag in his hand, and there was a hint of subtle surprise in his muttering to himself.

"I never thought it would end like this."

Even... Toyokawa Shoko doesn't care anymore? Sushi is definitely suffering from schizophrenia.

Wakaba Mutsu was becoming more and more worried but she had no choice. She walked out of the school gate and wandered around Tokyo, where almost no one cared about her, but she cared about many people.

That's the way it is.

……

dusk.

Holding the cucumber with his hands in front of him, Ruo Yemu slowly raised his head to look at the fiery clouds in the sky.

Orange, pink and cucumber-like clouds moved along with her.

"What a nice view."

Also, so lonely.

She wandered around the area alone for a long time and had no desire to go home. The driver wanted to take her home but was rejected by Mu.

【Take your time to go home…After returning home, I played guitar again and ended the day.】

Too boring.

puff-

The girl's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of something falling into the water. Mu Shou turned his head and saw that it was a girl who fell into the water from the rocks in the stream beside her.

Go save her!

The thought came to her mind quickly but also disappeared quickly, because Mu saw someone had already jumped into the water before her.

Moreover, Ruoye Mu will never forget the girl who jumped into the water to save others.

White hair, red eyes, and a sleazy figure.

【It’s Chitose Noshiro! 】

"Rock God!"

Mu squatted down and put the cucumber away. In fact, he was very curious whether it was necessary to go down to rescue the person in such a shallow river.

The evening breeze whistled and swayed, blowing the fresh scent of Ruoye Mu's body far away. The next moment, the scene that should have been a girl saving another girl turned into a scene of two girls hugging each other and talking to each other in front of Mu's eyes.

"..."

Although he didn't know why, he always felt strange in his heart. He reached into the bag and took out a cucumber. If Ye Mu didn't mind or hesitate, he would have bitten it.

They spoke loudly to her unclear thoughts, hugged each other and wiped each other's tears, their feelings were so sincere and beautiful.

Even the setting sun on the horizon was reduced to a backdrop for the girls.

When the devil comes, the girls are in the river, and the world behind them is all orange...

The scene was elegant and beautiful. But while Ye Mu was enjoying the beautiful scenery, he felt sad.

【I wish I had a friend who could play pranks like this with me. 】

Unfortunately.

“Even my parents didn’t want to take care of me.”

She hides in the sunset, an outsider who does not belong to any picture.
