[Black Basket] Hello, world

She sat on the triangular chair in front of the window like a sculpture, the sunlight passed through the open floor-to-ceiling windows, figures, home furnishings, and even the dust in the air could not hide.Silence or loneliness brings a desolate atmosphere. She seems to be stagnant at a certain moment, holding the tail of that moment with her right hand and pulling it slightly, and the chirping sound is undisguised. More than ten years of practice and the hard work that was once called talent, just like beginners who don't understand the various complex rhythms, or complete laymen, relying on the mechanical operation of the arms alone, the pieces are scattered and out of shape.But who can say that every note of it is not full of sadness?

And who can't say it?

In the early morning of June, Xue had an irrepressible negative attitude towards everything that would happen next.

"Don't pull any more..." Leon couldn't help but walk out of the room when Xuela reached the end of the first song, "The bento is ready?"

"In preparation." Xue's gloomy look made Leon unable to say words of encouragement when he turned around.

"Accept the fact that it's not as bad as you think. You can't be negative about life."

"It's not that I'm negative, it's that I think the other party will be negative!" Xue leaned on the head of the piano.Thinking of Ziyuan's undisguised reluctance and troublesome expression when school was over yesterday, she was upset, obviously she was the one who was dragged along. "'Please leave the bento to you, it's not convenient for me to make it here', you still say that! Ahhh, why is it so troublesome. Touching my thinning face, I feel distressed!"

Today's snow painting style is not quite right, but Leon still captured the point, "How much weight have you lost?"

"Five catties." Xue leaned half on the piano, holding the piano in one hand, and stretched out the other hand with the strength to throw out the whole arm, "I lost five catties in just half a month! Five catties Ah! It's getting closer and closer to one hundred."

Today's snow is indeed not in the same style as usual. "I'll have fewer things to do after these two weeks of work," Leon rubbed Xue's head, "Keep going. Eat your favorite Chinese food tonight."

Snow managed to regain her spirits, and couldn't make Leon worry too much, but Chinese food... She remembered that she was preparing a bento.

... She fell asleep, lying on her stomach by the low table, with her hands under her head.The warmth from the outside fell in, covering her.Atsushi Murasakihara came in from the basketball court, wanting to ask her when she was leaving, but she was silent after bending over to enter the room.He sat on the other side of the table, picking up the magazines on the floor.

"Hmm, the latest issue is tomorrow." Turned a few pages and looked up at her sleeping face, "I'm defenseless...how long will I sleep."

"Let's go then."

"Ah, you're awake."

"Not asleep." Her voice was very soft, with hidden fatigue, "Playing with children is too exhausting." After maintaining the original position for a while, she opened her eyes, and the sunlight fell into it, so she could see clearly The slightly colored iris, the light hides half of her and throws it into the darkness in an instant, leaving a residual warmth.

Ziyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, stood up, her head almost touching the ceiling, "Yeah..." Ziyuan said, "How about going to eat dessert to replenish your strength." She raised her head and smiled.

The two were walking on the path, Ziyuan took a little bigger steps, and Xue walked faster than usual.Both parties were silent until they passed through the park and a group of children were playing.

"Snow likes children?"

"Yes, although it is very tiring...probably driven by a sense of responsibility."

"Oh—responsibility? In my family, there are three older brothers, one older sister, and one younger sister. I don't know what the elder brother thinks, but I think children are very annoying."

"But they like Zijun very much, don't they? They just think Zijun is tall, and they won't notice your impatience."

"That's why it's annoying. Snow has many brothers and sisters?"

"...No," Xue said, "there is only one younger brother. Although we rarely see each other, we will always think about each other."

Atsushi Murasakihara likes to be with good-looking people, which he doesn't even realize.Maybe some face control, he will pay special attention to the appearance and expression of others.For example, when Chi Wai is angry, the pupils of his eyes become slender, and the curvature of his mouth becomes larger than usual; when Shi Zai is happy, his eyes glow, and he rarely shows a toothy smile; when Xue talks about his younger brother, the smile on his face is too sincere. Distorted, the lower eyelids are a little tight, the corners of the mouth are stretched softly but unnaturally, like the romantic portraits people have seen, it is an unreal expression caused by the creator's excessive blurring, but it is indeed in the same place It was revealed under the idea of ​​"holding something up and not wanting to talk about the same topic again".

"Zi Jun likes comics?"

"Will watch JUMP."

There were not many common topics, so when they were about to pass through the park, Murasakihara once again brought up the issue of Akashi's personality change, which he was slightly aware of but not sure about.Xuejian took the lead and talked about his one-on-one with Akashi, the Eye of the Emperor (she said it in a cadence in a playful way).At this moment, the phone rang, and Xue took it out of her pocket. Unexpectedly, her hands were so cold that she stiffened, and fell to the ground with a "slap", with the screen facing down, and there was no sound immediately.

Both of them froze for a moment, Xue squatted down unhurriedly, and turned the phone around.

"It looks pretty broken like this."

Xue turned the screen to Ziyuan, but her fingers loosened again, and she fell to the ground again. When she picked it up, most of the screen in the lower right corner was broken, from fine cracks to single deep marks from the frame to the inside.Her fingers slide over the crack,

"I'm really not suitable for using a mobile phone."

"The phone call just now..."

"Ah, I almost forgot." Xue turned to the missed call, "It should be fine, I'll call back later." The caller was a manager who hadn't seen him for a long time. Knowing that she was almost ready to make an appointment for work, "How long will it be?" She put the phone back in her pocket, feeling a little distressed.

The newly opened dessert shop did not disappoint. She ordered today's recommended almond meringue, strawberry sponge cake, tofu cheesecake ice cream, and mango pudding. Zi principle is to order a portion of chocolate-related desserts, "Be careful in your body Too much sugar." Looking at the sweets in front of her and Murasakihara who was savoring carefully at half the speed, Yuki said with a smile.

Ziyuan took a sip of the hot chocolate, biting the spoon and shaking it, "It's all right." After speaking, he glanced at Xue, "You," Xue uttered a questioning word, watching as Ziyuan wiped the left corner of his mouth with his finger and put it on his tongue Licked, "Cream stained."

Xue felt the heat coming from behind her ears, took out a handkerchief and wiped it, "Is there any more?"

Murasakihara shook his head, "I also want to be a pastry chef~ Just make whatever you want to eat, and you can taste different flavors every day."

"Sounds good, how about opening your own shop in that case, you can make money and taste it every day, and the equipment is more professional."

"Hmm, good idea."

"So, in Tokyo?"

"Huh? Tokyo... I don't really like crowded places, it's very troublesome."

"How about overseas? Paris."

"sounds good,"

"If you open a store in the future, I will definitely come here every day. The desserts made by Zijun are absolutely delicious."

"I'll give you a discount then."

"Ah, that's it."

It can also be a lot of fun to immerse yourself in fantasy.Xue picked up the cup and took a sip of the hot black tea. Her hands and feet gradually warmed up. The warm air in the store made her feel more and more sleepy, but she had already missed her lunch break, and this place was not a suitable place.Ziyuan commented while tasting, and Xue occasionally said a few words.She propped her chin on one hand and looked out of the window. The walking crowd, moving vehicles and all kinds of stationary signboards all became objects of hypnosis at this moment.

"I'll just sleep for a while..." She muttered, and a familiar voice came from her ear, and someone whispered her name softly.

"Snow, snow, wake up, it's time to go home."

Opening her eyes, she managed to get up, her body felt a little stiff, "What time is it?" It was already dusk outside the window, "I have slept for so long——Sei?" Akashi Seijuro was sitting opposite her, replacing Murasakihara The expressionless face of the red-haired boy shrouded in orange and jet black reminded her of her younger brother's full of life when she was a child. She liked to rub his round face, and he always pouted to show his reluctance, "because You were made by my sister", he emphasized this point, time and time again, the scene echoed in his mind like a huge clock, and it lingered for a long time.It took a while for Xue to make a sound, the voice was extremely slow and then suddenly accelerated, "Japan is so small—no, why are you in Akita? How long does it take to come here from Kyoto?"

"I'm from Tokyo, about four hours."

"Ah, where is Zijun?"

"Zi Yuan left. I didn't expect you to be able to fall asleep here."

"I've been arguing with the kids all morning, it's exhausting."

"Yes, let's go. Do you know that Yangquan is participating in the preliminaries in the county today?"

"...I don't know. Did you come for this?"

"No. Do you remember what day is tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow? Today is June 6, tomorrow—" Xue almost stayed in place.

"It's okay, Leon and I have made a plan, he said that you are not in a good state recently." Sure enough, I even forgot about this matter, and I am really not in the state, "What happened?"

"..." Snow sighed, "Yu Sato is back, in Yangquan, it's so troublesome." She still didn't want to say the name.

"I see." Akashi was silent for a while, "I think you'd better let him give up as soon as possible." He suddenly bent his mouth, "This matter will be resolved soon." He lowered his voice when he said the last sentence, as if Muttering to himself, surrounded by the solemn atmosphere brought by thinking, Zheng is like this, giving people a sense of peace of mind, and Xue feels a lot more relaxed inexplicably.
