I was in Conan, and after picking up Xiao Ai, I was chased by Hongzi.

Chapter 314 Faint thunder, hazy sky

"Ahaha..." Hiroshi Otoi quickly changed the topic, "The movie is about to start, let's go there quickly."

Because I wasted some time changing clothes, it was already dark when I entered the screening room.

Miyuki Miyazaki was also slightly relieved, at least no one would see her outfit...

In his daze, he didn't notice the steps at his feet, and he fell down.

Then fell into a warm embrace.

"Miyuki," Otoi Hiroshi rolled his eyes, "Why are you always so careless?"

Miyuki Miyazaki supported his arm and stood firm, "What always? In the morning, it was obviously you..."

"What about this time?"

"It's because it's too dark this time."

Sitting on her seat and raising her head, Miyuki Miyazaki stared blankly at the screen in front of her.

The tram speeds past, and the scene changes to a lake full of emerald green.

On the sparkling lake, the branches of willow trees hang down in the water, which looks like a real scene. It is hard to imagine that it is a painted scene.

All in all, very beautiful.

Returning to the inside of the tram is the inner monologue of the boy.

"Strangers' umbrellas wet the corners of school uniforms, the smell of mothballs comes from someone's suit, the body heat of others clings to their backs, and the turbid air-conditioned wind blows in our faces."

Miyuki Miyazaki gradually became immersed in the movie, and subconsciously wanted to put her arm on the armrest, but she touched his hand.

"Sorry." She quickly retracted her arm.

Under Otoi Hiroshi's smiling gaze, she pretended to focus on the screen.

But I was thinking in my heart, it turned out to be a man's hand.

Although he is ten years younger than me, but...

But his hands are much bigger than mine.

If he holds his hand in his palm, he may not be able to break free.

"No, no, Miyuki, what are you thinking about?!" She shook her head, trying to get the chaotic thoughts out of her mind.

It rained all the time in the movie, giving it a slightly lonely atmosphere.

She quietly whispered into Hiroshi Otoi's ear and asked, "Is this really a horror movie? It doesn't look very similar."

"Do you think I will lie to you? Miyuki." Hiroshi Otoi turned his head and said seriously, "Soon, this boy will meet the cat demon who has ruined his life."

"So that's it..."

In the rainy season of midsummer, with faint thunder and a hazy sky, a boy held an umbrella and wandered to the Japanese Garden in the center of Tokyo.

At this time, there was already a woman with lonely eyes sitting under the pavilion, holding a can of beer with her soft fingers.

Strangers bowed silently and took shelter from the rain under the roof.

"Pay attention, this woman is the cat demon." Otoi Hiroshi reminded.

"Yes." Miyuki Miyazaki looked serious and was mentally prepared in advance.

The spring water in the mountain stream was flowing gurglingly, and the sound of rain falling continuously seemed to fall directly into the heart of the boy in the pavilion.

Qiuyue, who aspired to become a handmade shoemaker, kept drawing drawings on paper, but her eyes were gradually and subconsciously attracted to the woman opposite.

He raised his head secretly, and in front of his eyes, he saw a woman with slender ankles and delicate little feet wearing black high-heeled shoes.

She looked sideways into the distance, feeling lonely and mysterious.

Inadvertently, the drop of the eraser led to the first conversation between two strangers.

Let Qiuyue ask: "Have we met somewhere?"

Noticing the school badge on Qiuyue's school uniform jacket, the woman named Yukino stood up with a smile.

"Perhaps I have actually seen it..."

"Faint thunder,

hazy sky,

But I hope the wind and rain will come,

I can keep you here. "

Miyuki Miyazaki leaned on her arms and seemed to blend into the rain. She kept reciting Yukino's words with a slight smile on her face.

"Very beautiful words," she looked at Otoi Hiroshi, "This woman doesn't look like a cat demon."

"Miyuki, how could you be deceived by her appearance? Look again."

In the following days, it rained continuously.

And young Qiuyue is also looking forward to meeting her again.

Raindrops continued to fall into the pool, causing splashes. The rainy day became a silent tacit understanding between the two, and the sound of rain fell in the heart, causing faint ripples.

Qiuyue was still secretly watching her, her cute little toes hooked on her high heels rocking back and forth, and the beer in the can kept flowing into her mouth.

The two of them silently enjoyed the tranquility brought by the rainy day.

He who skipped classes and she who skipped classes had a vague understanding.

Gradually, the two communicated more and more, and the distance on the bench became closer and closer.

From God's perspective, everyone also knows why the heroine likes beer and chocolate.

With the gradual loss of taste, these two things were the only flavors she could experience.

The two became more and more familiar, so Qiuyue mustered up the courage to say to her——

I want to make a pair of women's shoes, but I still lack inspiration.

So, knowingly, Xueye was confused, took off his high heels, and put his feet on the bench.

Slender, white and tender, soft, with crystal-clear toes.

Qiuyue carefully picked it up, held her ankle, and measured the scale quietly.

After the dark clouds gradually opened, the light and shadow fell, and the small pavilion seemed to be independent of another world.

It seemed to reflect the young man's gradually opening heart.

Miyuki Miyazaki gradually realized that something was wrong at this moment. This didn't look like a horror movie, it was more like——

Youth love story.

It's just that the age of the male protagonist and the female protagonist is quite different.

She secretly stared at Otoi Hiroshi's profile, and the moment he turned his head, she focused her eyes on the screen again.

The sound of leaves rustling in the distance came, and the rain, maple leaves, and Xueye's short hair swayed in the wind at the same time.

Until this moment, the boy still knew nothing about her, no matter her age, occupation, any worries, or even her name - despite this, he was still deeply attracted to her and couldn't resist.

After this time, the sky was clear every day in the following days, and Qiuyue could no longer find any reason to skip class.

Xueye, who thought he was relieved, actually didn't want the rainy season to end.

She sensed his thoughts and felt the answer in her heart.

The two people's lives were temporarily separated due to the end of the rainy season.

Finally, one day in September.

In the corridor of the school, Qiuyue saw Xueye who was walking out of the academic office and was about to resign.

"Teacher Yukino!"

The shouts from the classmates around her made Qiuyue freeze on the spot.

He originally thought that the only difference between them was age, but it turned out that there was also an insurmountable wall of identity.

Miyazaki Miyuki completely understood. She turned her head and glared at Hiroshi Otoi fiercely. This guy actually brought her to watch...a movie with this theme.

Facing her questioning gaze, Otoi Hiroshi's eyes trembled, "Miyuki, would two people who love each other really choose to separate because of their differences in status?"

"How do I know?" Miyuki Miyazaki did not dare to look directly into his eyes. She subconsciously pushed her hair behind her ears and lowered her head and said, "I have never been in love..."

------------

As Xueye's identity became clear, Qiuyue also heard about her.

The school violence extended to her body, and she eventually lost her sense of taste due to excessive psychological pressure.

The origin of everything is funny, because a certain bad girl coveted Xueye's boyfriend, which caused public opinion to turn towards Xueye, and even caused trouble to the parents.

In the end, the school chose to give up on Xueye for the sake of reputation and not wanting to make things worse.

The matter ended there.

Qiuyue, who knew everything, found the bad girl who was the source of everything, but was severely beaten.

But a certain emotion welling up in his heart made him continue to resist. When he fell to the ground, he got up again, and continued to resist...

"Miyuki," Otoi Hiroshi stared at the male protagonist on the screen and said softly, "If you have anything, you must tell me and I will help."

"Ah?" Miyuki Miyazaki laughed and clenched her fists with confidence, "No one in the school dares to provoke me. If anyone dares to be an eyesore, I will let him feel the iron fist of justice."

Otoi Hiroshi curled his lips, "Tch, I don't understand the atmosphere at all. But when I see this kind of thing, I will inevitably consider whether the people around me will be in the same situation... and I will be very worried."

The sounds in the movie disappeared, the whispers in the screening room, the crunching of food, all disappeared.

She looked at his side face, tilted her head and smiled lightly, "Okay, speaking of it, this is the first time in my life that I feel protected by a boy. But..."

"but?"

Miyuki Miyazaki poked his head, "I just hope you don't bully others."

"No way." Hiroshi Otoi rolled his eyes.

For him, except for Koizumi Anko, Kuroba Kaito, Nakamori Aoko, and now Miyazaki Miyuki, everyone else in the school is just a person from two different worlds.

My opponent is more terrifying and darker——

The other side of the world.

Qiuyue, who was waiting for the rainy day, involuntarily came to the pavilion where the two met on a sunny afternoon.

Xueye stood by the lake, with tiredness in his eyes.

She was startled when she saw the scars on Qiuyue's face, and vaguely guessed what happened.

"Faint thunder,

hazy sky,

Even if it doesn’t rain,

I will stay here too. "

Qiuyue met the Japanese song that Xueye had recited before. The breeze blew and the leaves rustled.

The next moment, there was a heavy rain, thunder and lightning, as if God was giving the lost two people a chance to understand their hearts.

Yukino's home

The two of them, soaked by the rain, were cooking and making tea.

Qiuyue held the teacup in her hand and felt the happiest moment in her life so far.

The boy's impulsiveness made him choose to confess his love.

As expected, Xueye chose to refuse in the name of the teacher.

Unable to accept it, Qiuyue rushed out of the door.

to the end

There was a heavy rain and thunder, and Xueye, who recognized his inner feelings, stood barefoot on the stairs, and took Qiuyue into his arms.

Their story ends here.

Of course, it's not completely over.

Later, the two continued to live their own lives and worked hard to change themselves.

Looking forward to the day when we meet each other again.

Just like Qiuyue secretly made a decision——

If one day you can walk more steadily and further, go see her.

……

After the movie ended, the huge lights in the theater brightened, and the changes in the lights made people feel a little dazed.

The crowd stood up in twos and threes and began to exit in an orderly manner.

After a while, Otoi Hiroshi stretched and looked around. Except for a few singles huddled in the corner, waiting for the last to leave, most of the people had left.

"Okay, let's go, Miyuki."

Miyuki Miyazaki lowered her head and her shoulders were shaking slightly. Hiroshi Otoi thought that she was still immersed in the story and her emotions could not be suppressed.

The hand fell gently on her shoulder.

But was pinched.

"This!" Miyuki Miyazaki's eyes widened. She pinched his wrist with one hand and pointed the other hand at the screen. "Is this the horror movie you mentioned?!!!"

"Yes, yes..." Otoi Hiroshi smiled awkwardly.

"Didn't you say that Yukino is a cat demon?!"

The only single dog left at this moment was frightened by Miyuki Miyazaki when passing by, and ran away in panic.

Well, in addition to being single, I also have some social fears.

"It's a lie," Hiroshi Otoi said seriously, looking at Miyazaki Miyuki, "because the real cat demon is right in front of me."

"Huh? Huh?" The cat ears on Miyazaki Miyuki's head were trembling, and the cat's tail behind her was also wagging in confusion.

Otoi Hiroshi rubbed his eyes, a little unbelievable.

Sure enough, it's all an illusion.

It's all because of her panic look just now, which was a little too cute.

"That is to say..." Hiroshi Otoi casually pushed Miyuki Miyazaki's hand away and grinned: "Miyuki is the scariest!"

Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared around the corner of the screening room.

Miyuki Miyazaki realized that she had been tricked by him, and stamped her feet on the ground angrily.

"Yin! Well! Hong!"

……

"Really, I didn't expect you to be so childish and do such childish tricks."

Miyuki Miyazaki changed back into short-sleeved shirts and jeans, dragging Hiroshi Otoi with two big bags on his head in his hands, walking heavily.

Otoi Hiroshi curled his lips, crossed his arms, and let her drag him forward, "It's not that Miyuki, you are too pedantic and live like an old man every day."

"Crap."

"Yes……"

"Also," Miyuki Miyazaki stopped and looked down at Hiroshi Otoi, "you are not allowed to call me by my name in the future."

"Why? Should I call you Miyazaki? This feels weird."

Miyuki Miyazaki's brows twitched in anger, "Call teacher!"

"No," Otoi Hiroshi pouted, "Here, Miyuki is Miyuki."

He stood up and patted the dust on his butt, put away his playful expression, "Or does Miyuki also want to treat me like Yukino and Qiuyue draw a line between each other?"

"I, I didn't mean that, it was just..."

"only?"

"That's nonsense, shut up." Miyuki Miyazaki turned around and walked forward, not wanting Hiroshi Otoi to see her expression.

"Ah... Miyuki, wait for me~"

Although he could catch up quickly, Otoi Hiroshi deliberately fell a few meters behind her, almost as fast as a turtle.

"Miyuki~"

"Call me teacher."

"Miyuki~Miyuki~"

"Call me teacher!"

"Miyuki~Miyuki~Miyuki~"

She suddenly stopped, it started to rain, and the thin rain gradually became a rain curtain. She lowered her head and stood there quietly.

Let the rain fall.
