I, Minami Kotori, Son of the Sun

Today the sky was overcast and the sunset could not be seen, but in fact it was already dusk - she was alone and distraught on the swaying tram, with light and shadows flickering in the mirror, and she seemed to see the girl leaning on her shoulder again.

It seemed that I could smell the faint fragrance of the girl's hair.

My mood is like the dark clouds outside the window, so bad that water is about to drip out.

As mentioned before, several life-and-death experiences made it impossible for her to avoid the feelings of a young girl.

All she could see was the girl's face. She knew she was being mean, but she couldn't get rid of the thought no matter what.

She didn't know how she got off the tram. When she came to her senses, she saw the familiar Nan family courtyard in front of her.

"Little Bird, come back... Hey! Why don't you even open an umbrella?" Bai Li pulled Little Bird in, but realized something was wrong. He stood on tiptoe and looked around, but he couldn't see the other person. "Where's Sanye?"

Hearing the noise, Nan Saori also came over from the living room, holding a wet towel in her hand. While wiping Xiaoniao's wet hair, she asked, "Did the child go home?"

"I ask you, where is Sanye?" Bai Li continued to ask.

"She..." The bird was speechless for a moment, and could only choke with sobs, unable to say anything.

Like a fishbone stuck in the throat.

Seeing this, Bai Li's eyes gradually became sharper and he pulled Xiaoniao's hand without saying a word.

Minami Saori looked at her two daughters running away and tilted her head in confusion.

In the small bathroom, water was flowing - Bai Li was running hot water for the bird.

"She...confessed?" Bai Li spoke slowly.

"But, but I refused." Xiaoniao said quickly, thinking Bai Li was jealous.

Bai Li was speechless for a while, her mood was very complicated.

Why is this?

"You're going too far. You should take things slowly..."

"I've been very tactful! Should I accept her?"

Bai Li was silent and turned to get the hot towel.

"Speak..." Xiaoniao held the small hand holding the hot towel, looked at the petite person in front of him, and almost begged, "What about you? Why, you are always like this..."

You obviously like each other so much, why do you keep pushing her away and giving her to others?

The little bird couldn't understand.

"Because, I am already very satisfied, little bird..." She smiled, tears welling up from her eyes.

After a long silence, Bai Li spoke first, but he was still concerned about others: "Did you send Sanye back well?"

"I, I'll make a phone call and ask."

Apparently, no.

"The user you dialed is powered off. Please try again later."

The two looked at each other.

"Bai Li, I..."

"What are you waiting for? Go find it!" Bai Li shouted.

Looking at the bird's back as it rushed away, Bai Li felt a pang of sadness and loneliness in his heart.

"What, maybe you don't care?" That was just a lie.

"But, I'm already very satisfied." This is not a lie.

. . .

However, no one answered Sanye's phone call, and the family rushed out to look for her.

After learning what happened from Bai Li, Saori was very anxious, but she didn't have the heart to blame her eldest daughter.

The girl probably had some thoughts about the bird, but it was the children's own choice and she could not interfere, nor did she have the right to interfere.

. . .

"Really, what am I doing? I'm like an idiot." Her carefully dressed dress was stained with mud, there was a bloodstain on her hand, her hair was wet and stuck together, she felt terribly uncomfortable.

She ran away madly with her sprained foot, as if that would allow her to escape to the past, to a timeline without the confession.

But it was just a fantasy after all, and the pain of reality has now caught up with her.

When she came to her senses, she was not only completely unable to walk, but she didn't even know where she was in the world swirling with heavy rain.

All I knew was that there was wilderness everywhere, and there was not even a shadow of a house. Fortunately, I found a bridge, so I rolled and crawled down the slope. Not only did my clothes get torn, but even my hands were scratched by the sharp grass tips. I finally squatted under the bridge to shelter from the rain. I wanted to rub my eyes, but the blood on my hands blinded my vision.

My eyes were stinging terribly. I finally used my remaining right eye to turn over my phone, but found that the old and broken phone had stopped working due to the rain.

She was desperate and started crying like a child who hadn't gotten her candy - maybe even worse than that.

The pain of a failed confession is intertwined with the pain of a series of bad luck.

With blurred vision, I saw that the rain outside was getting heavier. Besides my own howling, the sound of raindrops rolling on the ground occupied all my hearing.

The rain was pouring down and she was crying loudly, but her body's perception was the opposite - she felt increasingly calm.

She was a useless child, and had always been like that - she was bullied at school for being cowardly, and she didn't get along with her father at home. That day, her mother-in-law desperately sent her out, but she lost her memory out of fear...

However, it was precisely because she was a useless child that she met the knight who could clear all obstacles for her.

So she began to think that she was at least lucky enough.

Then she became brave, confident, strong, but also greedy.

She was too greedy, but the knight belonged to no one, at least, not to her - at least, the princess the knight was supposed to protect had never been her.

She is too self-righteous.

The lucky girl who had the honor of being with the knight was not her.

"What an idiot." Now, thinking about how Sister Xiaoniao rejected her without hesitation, she even wanted to laugh.

No one will come to see her in the rain anymore. She has lost that person forever.

"Three leaves!!!"

But, such a voice still came.

"Is it an illusion?"

She raised her head and used her cold hands to try to brush away the water droplets blocking her eyelashes.

"Why? Why, is it you?"

She looked at the petite figure running up the riverbank.

That's the lucky girl.

. . .

In the end, it was Bai Li who found Sanye.

"Sanye!" The petite figure who ran over shouted at the top of her lungs.

It seemed like a surprise, but also like a relief.

Why would she care about me? Why? Sanye couldn't figure it out.

The umbrella was over her head, and she felt a coolness in her eyes, and then the discomfort in her eyes disappeared.

Although she didn't know how she did it, she managed to see the girl in front of her clearly.

Half of her body was exposed outside the umbrella. To be honest, she had just seen Bai Li holding an umbrella, but now she saw that the girl's clothes were dripping with water.

It was as if she had just swum in the sea - wait, it seemed like she had just come from the riverbank.

She began to wonder if her brain was frozen. How could a normal person walk on the water? This is under a bridge.

She smiled bitterly, probably discovering the truth.

"My Lord God, I am already dead, so please fulfill my wish. I want to be reincarnated as a handsome man in Tokyo in my next life, or in New York at least..."

She still retained a bit of rationality. She knew that Sister Xiaoniao had someone she loved and they were in love with each other, so she would not bother her in the next life.

"Sanye! Are you stupid?" She was hit by a small knife in the hand, which hurt a little, but not much.

"Aren't I dead?" Sanye opened her eyes wide, looking puzzled, and even a little... unwilling?

"Pah, pah, pah, it's almost New Year's Day, what stupid things are you saying?"

She felt a warmth in her body, and the small wounds all over her body began to heal, with a rustling sound and a little itchy.

"Am I still alive?"

"...." Bai Li was silent for a while, "The person who meets someone after death is most likely a mentally retarded blue-haired goddess. You met me, which means you are still alive."

"Is that so?" Sanye was shocked.

"It's like this, cough cough..." Bai Li nodded and tapped his dizzy head.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

It is somewhat awkward for love rivals to meet.

But now he is no longer a love rival, she has been clearly rejected.

"Xiao Niao, she told me that you might be here. Was this where you first met?" Bai Li started the conversation first.

"Bridge arch? Is that what Sister Xiaoniao told you?" Sanye felt a little aggrieved despite her surprise.

It made her look like she was picked up from a garbage dump.

"Uh..." Bai Li was stunned. As she said before, her head was a little dizzy. Otherwise, with Bai Li's ability to run trains, how could she make such a mistake?

It was actually Pegasus who discovered Sanye. Under Baili's order, it began to search in the mirror world, and finally saw Sanye curled up under the bridge through the water.

But Bai Li rushed into the mirror world without asking clearly, which resulted in her falling into a flooded river as soon as she came out of the mirror world. She was nearly blown away by the umbrella she was holding - fortunately, Pegasus was reliable enough to take her to the shore.

Otherwise, let alone Sanye, even Bai Li would have been given away like the Calabash Brothers.

"Are you okay?" Sincerity is the quickest way to speak, so Bai Li changed the subject and began to care about Sanye.

"It's okay, completely okay?" Sanye looked at his hand. The wound was gone, not even a scar was left. He moved his feet again, and he looked like a human being again.

"Did you do this?"

"Uh... um." Bai Li hurriedly put his hands behind his back, but the spray in his hand was still seen by Sanye.

"Is it Sister Xiaoniao's magical little prop?"

"Magical props?" Bai Li was stunned, and then watched Sanye take out a bottle of spray from her small bag - she still had a small bag, but it couldn't hold much, even a bottle of water had to be carried in Xiaoniao's shoulder bag.

"This..." Bai Li took a look and knew that this was a gadget produced by the system, "The little bird even gave you this."

"Well, well, I'm not showing off. If you want, I can give it to you..." As she said this, Sanye seemed to have made a strong decision and held the treasure worth 20 points in front of her.

Then he showed an expression of complete reluctance, just like an elementary school student when his teacher confiscated his toys.

"Just keep it..." Bai Li was embarrassed. What's the use of her having that thing?

Hearing this, Sanye immediately withdrew her hand and put it into her bag at lightning speed.

Noticing Bai Li's gaze, she smiled shyly.

"It was you who said no." These words were expressed in those clear eyes.

What a cute child.

"But, did Xiaoniao give me this too?" Things in the system are also secrets. Xiaoniao is not as indifferent to Sanye as she said.

"You're really weird. I'm obviously a bad woman who wants to steal Kotori away." Mitsuha sighed. Compared to her, she, who tried to steal Kotori away on a date alone, seemed like a stupid and bad cat.

In a novel, she would probably be the villainous bad woman who would be killed in the first few dozen chapters and would be infamous for eternity.

Bai Li could only smile bitterly and shake her head when she heard this. She was indeed very strange.

In fact, her love was very humble. She just wanted to be by the side of the bird, but the bird selflessly gave her everything.

It was as big as an entire garden, but she was just an unloved stray cat in her previous life, so she often felt that she was not worthy of her.

I am flattered and grateful, how can I ask for too much?

"I now know why Sister Xiaoniao likes you. Be more confident. You deserve it." Sanye comforted the little guy in front of her.

Looking closely, the white-haired loli was so small - Sanye suddenly felt confused. How could she have felt hostile towards such a cute little creature?

"If I had met you first, maybe I would have fallen in love with you too?" Don't forget, her original dream was actually to become a handsome guy in Tokyo.

The initial goal was naturally to marry a cute girl in Tokyo.

As for meeting the cool girl in Tokyo, that will happen later.

"No, I can't stand it." Bai Li waved his hands repeatedly. Why do those women who can't get the bird like to say this?

It makes it very difficult for her to be a human being...or a God.

"But, I still want to be with her... Don't get me wrong! I have given up, but..." Mitsuha tried to re-examine her feelings.

In addition to admiration, she is not inferior to anyone in terms of friendship.

"I just, just want to help her." Whenever Sanye thought of Xiaoniao fighting alone and pretending to be strong, she felt sad.

If you can't be a lover who accompanies him/her every moment, then at least you can be someone who can share his/her worries and solve their problems.

"Power, God, please give me strength." The little witch began to pray - in front of Bai Li.

"Hey, do you think I'm stupid? No! I'm telling you, God has responded to me."

"Sanye..." Bai Li touched Sanye's head and couldn't calm down for a long time.

Xiaoniao is so lucky to meet such a good girl.

Even the god Bai Li was moved.

"God has decided to grant your wish once again." She spoke slowly.

The girl may do this for now, but as a god, she cannot hide anything any longer.

"Eh, again?" Sanye opened her eyes in surprise when she heard that.

I saw the little girl with snow-white hair, holding a broken arrow in her hand, the tip of which was an ancient and mysterious dark gold color.

"Lord God?" As a shrine maiden who served the shrine day and night, she felt the sacred and inviolable aura.

"Are you ready? I'm going to fuck you."

The huge arrow seemed like it could kill an elephant in one blow, but when she thought about what would happen next, she was filled with infinite courage.

"I'm ready."

"Don't worry, the pain is only momentary. I have seen unlimited potential in you." Rather, the white substitute has already appeared vaguely.

It's just the finishing touch.

The girl closed her eyes, feeling as if something was new in her body, yet nothing seemed to have changed.

"Try it, and you will know it." Bai Li said with a smile.

Sanye looked at the heavy rain and suddenly had an idea. Now, all she needed was a thought and the sky would clear up.

If you want it to thunder, it thunders; if you want it to wind, it winds; if you want it to rain, it rains, anytime and anywhere.

There is no need to waste mental energy shouting at the sky anymore.

She seemed to possess incredible powers.

Now, she is thinking: "May it clear up."

Please clear up the sky which has been gloomy all day.

The next moment, brilliant light broke through the clouds and sprinkled on the earth. It was clearly the sunset, but it was so warm.

"What a powerful force!" She raised her eyes and saw a white shadow, and that shadow was also looking at her.

"Sanye, you are really amazing." Bai Li admired sincerely, "Your stand-in's name is..."

"【Weather Report】!"
