Chapter 852 [Chapter 4] 272
Tears welled up in Liu Quan's eyes instantly.
really weird.she thinks.
The melody that floats in from the window is obviously so brisk, so shocking, and so full of energy.
Why did I only feel a burst of deep sadness when I heard it.
It seems to be an ominous prophecy, announcing the signal of parting.He couldn't come in front of her, and she couldn't go to him; just like the last time we parted, there was a brisk melody resounding outside the window, but the heavy sadness and pain of separation almost hurt the whole heart.
She stared at the face on the screen in front of her.
At this moment, one of his hands was resting against the side of the screen, with the palm facing her, and she could clearly see the thin calluses on his palm due to long-term sword practice, as well as the deep and clear palm lines.
In his palm, the lifeline was straight and long.
So, he can live, right?When Awashima came in to report just now, he had already mentioned the fact that "the Dresden stone slab was destroyed"; then, there is no crisis of dropping the sword, and now he can always live in that world, as a support for the world, maintenance The pillar of peace has a long and glorious life, right? !
Now, his palm is open and pressed against the screen.Beside his palm, is his face.If she stretched out her hand to cover his palm now, it would look as if her hand was caressing his cheek through a screen.
However, that is just a visual illusion.She is, from now on, she will never touch his cheek, his hands, this person, right? !
She just stared at him with sadness in her eyes.Until he seemed to be aware of her sadness, so he turned the corner of his lips towards her helplessly, and the gaze he looked at her became gentle and apologetic, with a hint of comfort and expectation——
Be brave and trustworthy.
His eyes told her so.
Because, you are a good boy——
Yes.she thinks.
I know.
Because, I will always be a good boy in your mind, right?
Because it is a virtue to live bravely no matter what happens.
She looked sadly at his face which could not be touched on the screen, and slowly stretched out her left hand, following his example, she spread her five fingers slightly, but did not immediately cover her hand where his hand was, Instead, as if nostalgic and attached, he gently traced the outline of his cheek on the screen with his fingertips.
As if aware of what she was doing at this end of the screen, Munakata Reji slightly raised the corners of his lips.
Then, as if intending to confess at the last moment, he said suddenly:
"...In the past, at those critical moments when the situation didn't seem to be going according to my wishes, I wondered whether it was my destiny to die in battle..."
Liu Quan:! ! !
Her eyes widened uncontrollably for a moment!
Those scenes that I have seen in the main control room of the Government of Time - the battle of the Pillar Tower, the break of the sword of the Blue King, and the shocking rattling sound of his sword of Damocles , the scene full of cracks from top to bottom suddenly appeared in her mind.
...was that the moment he was talking about?Ready to fight to the death? !
However, Munakata Reiji did not continue to describe his inner feelings when he was facing the last moment of his life. He just looked deeply into her eyes and said, "...just as it is your destiny to keep going forward."
Liu Quan:? !
Munakata Reishi lowered his eyebrows, his expression suddenly became extremely calm and gentle.With a certain powerful certainty.
"Even without me, you will find a better way to continue to move forward bravely. I believe so."
Liu Quan:! ! !
Tears streamed down her face, rolled down her cheeks, fell from her chin, and onto the table.
However, she tried her best to nod vigorously at the person on the screen, showing a bright smile, as if affirming his statement.
I will be brave.I will live bravely, bravely face every difficulty and every enemy that I will encounter in the future, and bravely move forward in the direction of the righteousness that you and I firmly believe in, and become people who can make their respective worlds better. A dependable and trustworthy force—
So, shall we give the promised high five?
She finally spread out her five fingers, and covered the palm and five fingers tightly on the screen where his right hand was close to the other end.
There was a screen—their two hands overlapped there.
Tears finally rolled down her cheeks, but she tried her best to lean her upper body forward, and tried her best to show him a huge smile with eight teeth on the screen.
Her throat tightened.Almost unable to speak.However, the next moment, she heard her own trembling voice, saying clearly:
"In that song, there are a few words, I like it very much."
She paused and took a deep breath.
"'Just be brave enough to go your separate ways'—"
"'Never say goodbye 'cause we'll be seeing each other soon - so let's give a promised high five now'."
After hearing her response, Munakata Reiji's brows and eyes slowly stretched behind the pair of thin-rimmed glasses, becoming peaceful and gentle.He pursed his thin lips, smiled at her, and nodded slightly; then, he slightly curled his fingers covering the screen, and tapped the screen twice with his fingertips.
There seemed to be a trace of sigh in his smiling voice; the deep and mellow voice said to her gently: "Good boy."
The alarm of the small spherical timer next to it rang beeping at this moment.
The screen went black in an instant.Munakata Reiji's face disappeared from the screen.
But Liu Quan kept the action of covering the screen with his left hand for a long time, and did not move.
Yes.
Those times with you are the best days of our youth.
and so.
For those thanks that haven't been said well, let's give you a high five in return.
She stood blankly in front of the completely black screen, as if she had been sitting there for a long time.
Strangely, the singing voice coming from the window was always the same one.
【Compared to holding back tears
Why don't you let yourself cry
是 的
There will be many, many hardships
Please dry your tears and stand up]
Liu Quan slowly withdrew his left hand from the darkened screen, stood up slowly, walked to the open window, leaned on the window sill, and looked down.
Outside the window is the atrium full of people.During the relaxing tea break, many people poured out of the building and came to the courtyard to enjoy the baptism of today's bright sunshine.
The song repeats itself on a loop, singing:
[The melody of cherry blossoms can be heard everywhere
In a blink of an eye, it's the day of parting again
In that corner on the schoolhouse wall
Keep the messages that everyone secretly wrote]
Liu Quan held down the window sill with both hands, then slowly leaned his upper body forward, leaning out as much as possible, as if he wanted to stand in the window, and also hoped to bathe as brightly and warmly as possible until today. Some are sunny and sunny.
[Take off the familiar school uniform
All the flowers are bathed in the spring breeze
Soon it will all be blown away
Then I will dream new dreams]
Accompanied by such singing, the door behind him opened with a click, and the footsteps that went out before sounded.
It's Shoji Fujisawa who's back.
Liu Quan was still standing in front of the window and didn't look back.
She heard Shoji Fujisawa's footsteps around the desk, and he seemed to pull out his chair and sit back down again.After a moment of silence, he spoke.
"You don't look like you've successfully completed your mission," he said.
Liu Quan was still standing with his hands on the window sill, facing out of the window.
"It didn't work." There was a ghostly smile in her voice.
"The only mission I have failed so far... I will return it to you."
There was a refreshing sense of defeat in her tone, like a moment when she readily admitted that she was also incapable.Fujisawa Shoji was silent for a few seconds, then laughed.
"Hehehe...It sounds like you don't mind talking about your failures publicly?" His laughter seemed to contain a little probing intention, "Are you able to face your failures frankly so soon? "
Liu Quan was silent for a while, then suddenly pushed hard on the window sill with both hands, turned around halfway with that force, stood firmly against the window frame, stood with his hands around his chest, and raised his chin slightly.
"Hey~" she replied, "It's not so much 'frankly face', it's better to say--I'm quite proud of it?"
Fujisawa Shoji was taken aback. "……What?"
Liu Quan looked directly at him with a smile, not feeling guilty after failing the mission at all.There was something called bravery on her face.
"My mission failed, which means that Li Sijun and I have passed the test." She said clearly, "And I'm proud of it—it's such a simple thing."
The author has something to say:
February 12:

Here is a dialogue between the head of the office and the girl about fate, before the sword is dropped in the head of the room's comeback.
Because thinking of using it here also has a sense of fate [Hey!

Same as the last chapter, the soundtrack is BacKNumber's "ChristmasSong" that everyone is already very familiar with, please listen to the link by yourself hhh
