lost to yellow ball

Okinawa is made up of many islands, and Kiri and the others are located on one of the popular tourist spots.

Although Kogoro Mori's "luxury tour group" does not quite match the word luxury, but the location of the hotel is very good. The beach is only a few hundred meters away, and there are all kinds of entertainment facilities around.After Kuri Kushima went to change into her swimsuit, Sonoko Suzuki hugged her arm.

"Why are you dressed so conservatively?"

Jiri Kushima: "..."

She looked down at the top-down swimsuit she was wearing. Although it wasn't as hot as Sonoko's, she couldn't be called conservative either.At least everything that should be exposed was exposed, and there were many eyes staring at her at the moment, but when she thought about the styles Sonoko had chosen for her when she was shopping for swimsuits, she suddenly understood.

"Take back your hooligan statement."

Jiu Dao Ji Li withdrew his hand, "Do you want to dive or just take a dip in the sea?"

Before changing her swimsuit, Yuanzi sent Xiaolan a text message, asking her if she would like to take the child with her, but the other party replied that she was eating smoothie and making sand sculptures with the children...

What a miserable high school girl.

"Snorkeling is fine... it's a bit late now." Suzuki Sonoko thought for a while, "Let's just swim casually, Ji Li, you haven't swam for a long time." She remembered that Ji Li used to like swimming very much, but Haven't been in the water since the incident at the resort.

"Well, I haven't been in the sea for almost a few years. I will swim in the swimming pool when I go home for the New Year..." Kudao Jili and Sonoko went into the water together. Both of them have good water skills and quickly stayed away. On the beach, swim to a place where there are not many people.

This sea area is really crystal clear, especially the characteristic light strips at the bottom of the water. Even at night, tourists will not feel the depth and danger of the sea, but are full of dreamy beauty.

Kili Kushima, who hadn't been in the sea for a long time, emerged from the sea. She stretched out her hand and scratched her wet long hair back casually, revealing her smooth forehead. She casually glanced at Suzuki Sonoko's appearance behind, and said with a smile: "Sonoko, haven't you been swimming for a long time?"

Suzuki Sonoko said angrily, "I'm not as physically strong as Ji Li."

Looking around, she suddenly pointed to the rocky cave in front, and said with a smirk, "I wonder if there will be such a young couple over there, do you want to scare them?"

"Over there, I just saw a person go into the water and swim away." Jiudao Jili said: "Besides, since you think so, everyone must think so too. If this is the case, there should be no pair in the cave People are right, couples are afraid of being disturbed."

Suzuki Sonoko: "Oh, you have a lot of experience."

Kushima Jiri was silent for a moment.

Not particularly rich either.

"Let's go, let's compete to see who gets there first." Without waiting for Suzuki Sonoko's answer, Kuri Kushima plunged into the water and swam forward.

The cool but not bone-chilling sea water wraps Kudao Jiri's body, as gentle as the mother's hand described in the book, soothing her heart that has not been relaxed for a long time.She went deeper and shallower, and on the ground, it was just a white streamer adorning the back of her swimsuit. At this moment, it fluttered behind her with the buoyancy of the sea, which was beautiful.

"Ji Li—wait for me!"

When Suzuki Sonoko was about to chase after her, she suddenly noticed a man swimming towards her.

"Hello, I can't go any deeper here."

His skin is a healthy wheat color, with deep contours, and he stopped beside Yuanzi with a smile: "There was a sign, but it seems to have been taken off today. I just want to go back, can we have a glass of wine together?" ?”

Suzuki Sonoko's saliva almost flowed down.

"Okay... okay."

"My name is Yajima Yuta, how about you?" Yajima Yuta walked to the shore while chatting with Suzuki.

"My name is Sonoko Suzuki. I just arrived in Okinawa today... Is your accent a local?" "Yes."

When the two were swimming back slowly, Suzuki Sonoko stopped suddenly, and she said in a hurry, "Oh, no. My friend is still there!" Just now she was mistaken by her beauty, and she just realized it Ji Li still doesn't know what can't pass now!

Yajima Yuta frowned. He looked back at the direction of the reef cave and said, "Well, I'll go back to find her, and you go back first."

"I will go with you!"

"no!"

The sudden sharp sound startled Suzuki Sonoko.

Seeing the fear on Suzuki's face, Yajima Yuta calmed down and said, "It's really not safe at night, how about this, I'll take you back, and then ask the security guard to pick her up."

he suggested.

"But..." Suzuki Sonoko was not at ease.

"Then I'll go find that lady, how about you go back first?" Yajima Yuta showed the ID of the beach security officer hanging around his neck, and said solemnly: "Leave professional matters to professional people. And in case something happens, if there is only that lady, I have the confidence to bring her back, but if you are added, then the three of us may not be able to come back. Okay, Miss Suzuki?"

"But it's not far from that rocky cave..." They decided to go there just now because they saw someone coming in and out, and it wasn't very far away. Suzuki said, "Catch up now, and I should be able to bring Ji Li back immediately." .”

"Is it Miss Ji Li? Because there are many reefs and aquatic plants nearby, it is not suitable to go at night." Yajima Yuta sighed, and some melancholy appeared in his eyes: "I understand that you are worried about your friends, but this is the only way In order to ensure her safety to the greatest extent, isn't it? I"

"I have a jet ski parked over there, but it can only hold two people..."

Suzuki Sonoko agreed with Yajima Yuta's persuasion, and she instructed: "Then you must be careful!"

"no problem!"

Yajima Yuta smiled.

Seeing this, Suzuki Sonoko swam back to the beach out of reassurance for the professionals.

When swimming back to the crowded place, she met Yukimura Seiichi.

Seeing Sonoko Suzuki who was with Gili in the afternoon, Seiichi Yukimura quickly called her to stop, "Miss Suzuki!"

"You're not that..." Ji Li's ex-boyfriend.

Suzuki Sonoko swallowed those words back, "Ji Li went to that reef cave..."

Yukimura Seichi looked in the direction Suzuki Sonoko pointed, and frowned, "Isn't it forbidden to approach there after ten o'clock?...I'll go find him, please go find the security officer!" From the very beginning, he was a little bit I had a bad premonition, and now I only came here to tell Ji Li's friend, and then swam towards the cave.

"We didn't know it before, but a security officer has already passed by... Hey, hey! It's not suitable for swimming at night over there! Listen to what others have to say!"

Suzuki Sonoko didn't even have time to call Yukimura to stop, and just watched him swim over there.

"Are current high school students so good at swimming?" Suzuki Sonoko was puzzled, "And someone has already picked up Ji Li."

He didn't listen to others' words, no wonder Ji Li broke up with him.

What's the use of looking good.

Suzuki Sonoko snorted softly, and walked towards the bank. She decided to ask another security officer to go there.

Kudao Jili touched the stone on the cave with one hand, and then suddenly surfaced, feeling the pleasure of breathing fresh air suddenly after holding his breath for a long time.

She supported the reef with one hand and looked behind, only to find that the back was empty.

"Yuanzi?" she called out loudly.

It stands to reason that although Yuanzi's speed is not as fast as hers, it is not so much slower.

She yelled twice more uneasy, and dived into the water in surprise, trying to confirm whether Yuanzi was in the sea.But the light strips on the bottom of the sea were all turned off after she opened her eyes and searched for a while.The suddenly dark environment forced her to float back to the surface of the water.

And in this case, it is a bit unsuitable to swim back.

Jili Jiudao could only go ashore temporarily and walked into the cave. There was a tall lamp inside. I heard that it used to be used to guide the fishing boats at night. Bright.

She touched her chest, it was empty.

I regretted not bringing my mobile phone because I thought it was troublesome.

"--who……"

His ears were sensitive enough to detect the sound behind him, but Ji Li, who still didn't react fast enough, felt a sharp pain in his neck, and his eyes went dark.

……

…………

When she regained consciousness, she was lying on the rough and cold ground. The sound in her ear and the environmental reasons made her brain wake up quickly.

"... Yukimura?"

As soon as she got up, she saw Yukimura Seiichi being pressed to the ground by a strange man. Before she realized what happened, a bright light flashed in front of her eyes - it was a knife!Kili Kushima stepped forward almost immediately to pull the man away, but the man's reaction was extremely sensitive, and the hand holding the knife immediately swung towards her in the opposite direction.

But at the same time, the situation of Yukimura Seiichi being oppressed on the ground immediately improved, and he directly lifted the man from his body.

"Ji Li is careful!"

The man who was thrown aside got up and stabbed towards Kuri Kushima, Yukimura Seiichi, who subconsciously stood in front of Kili, let out a muffled snort.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kili Kushima suddenly tripped the man with his legs, then picked up a stone from the side and threw it at his back.

"Go!" She took Yukimura Seiichi's hand and ran directly into the cave.

Atobe Keigo said with a bad face: "So you left her there alone?"

His complexion was by no means good-looking.

Standing aside, Ninaku Yushi persuaded: "Don't worry too much, Atobe. Didn't Ms. Suzuki say that a security officer has passed by? We'll just wait here for a while."

It was also only when he discovered that it was the second lady of the Suzuki Consortium who had just approached him.

The character is really unexpected.

Mao Lilan stretched out her hand to comfort Suzuki Sonoko and said: "Ji Li will be fine, and you may be more dangerous in the past, Sonoko, it is right not to come back and call someone."

She was referring to the fact that Yuanzi called two security guards to go there as soon as she came back.

At this time, although a few of them were a little anxious, most of them were anxiously waiting, and didn't think that anything would happen to Kudao Jiri and Yukimura Seiichi.But within 10 minutes, things got complicated.First, Yuanzi came back and called the two security guards to come over, and told them with a serious face that no one was found, and soon...

The police are here.

They cordoned off the entire beach.

Because someone found a dead body on the beach.

"What do you mean you can't get close?" Atobe Keigo's cold eyes swept over a police officer who had just stopped him, and stopped on a police officer who was obviously more responsible.

"Our companion is still in the cave." Genichiro Sanada also took a step forward. His tall and strong figure gave people full pressure.

But the police don't take soft food. He knocked his hands impatiently: "There is a criminal case now, and the security officer who just discovered the body has already said that your two companions have not been found. The police have also sent Staff went over to check, now you just stay here and wait, don't get close to the crime scene."

"Besides, the current is very fast at night, there are many hidden reefs, and the wires of the submarine lights have been damaged. Now even experienced sailors cannot easily go there. Don't make trouble for the police!"

On the other side, Mao Lilan also went to find his father and wanted him to come and help.

As a result, Mori Kogoro, who was supposed to drink with Ichiro Yamazaki, lay alone in the bar drunk, unconscious.

"Dad! Get up quickly—" Mao Lilan pushed her father hard, but it didn't work at all.

She sat powerlessly on the ground, Shinichi...

If Shinichi is here,

Enough……

Perhaps the gods heard Mao Lilan's prayer, and a miracle happened.

Kudo Shinichi, who had been missing for half a year, appeared on the beach.

Liu, who was in a stalemate with the police along with everyone in the tennis club, saw Kudo Shinichi who suddenly appeared, and sensitively noticed several incongruous places, such as his clothes did not fit at all, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in his mouth , wearing trousers but only casually put on a pair of beach slippers.

too weird.

For the time being, Kudo Shinichi has no time to control what others think of him. He just drank Laobaigan because of some accidents. At this moment, the excitement of turning back into a high school student has not yet passed, and he is facing the murder case and Ji Li's disappearance.

"Mr. Yajima Yuta, you stopped Suzuki Sonoko just now and went to the reef cave to find Kushima Kiri, right?"

Yuta Yajima, who was mentioned suddenly, nodded.

Kudo Shinichi's name is so easy to use, and the police didn't mind his intervention in the case at all, and even opened the notebook very seriously to record information at any time.

"Sonoko also met Yukimura Seiichi on the way back, that is to say around 45:55 Yukimura Seiichi followed you to the reef cave, and around [-]:[-] the new security guard also went to the reef cave... ...But at [-]:[-], the two security guards who went earlier came back, but you didn't come back until [-]:[-]..."

"Can you explain what's going on, Mr. Yajima Yuta."

Keigo Atobe had just finished contacting the marine search team, and when he came back, he heard this passage, and his rationality told him that it was the best choice to hand it over to the search and rescue personnel, but his emotions still went to Ji Li directly like Yukimura Seiichi. impulse.

His fingers habitually touched the mole of tears, trying to calm himself down.

If this Yajima Yuta really did it...

There was a glint of darkness in Atobe's eyes.

"..."

Kuri Kushima tore off all the decorative tapes on her swimsuit, and with a very bad complexion, made a simple hemostatic bandage for Seiichi Yukimura.

I just didn't expect that the man would pull out a gun when he came after him. Fortunately, this cave is deep and dark, and there are many places connected to the sea water. She and Yukimura hid in the sea water and held their breath to avoid each other. search.But because of this, Yukimura's wound was stained with seawater, and the blood didn't stop immediately, thank you very much, that person left soon, otherwise he would have been soaked in seawater like this....

With slightly trembling hands, she tightly tied a cloth strip on Yukimura Seiichi's arm, but fortunately, the bleeding was barely stopped, and Ji Li's heart was a little more at ease, but she was still very angry: "Why do you want to hide when I can hide?" Come here to block? It feels good to be like this now? Next week is the Kanto Tournament, so you still like tennis? Do you love your body so much?"

Thinking about if the knife could be more accurate... Kudao Jili cursed without hesitation: "Are you sick?"

"...Sorry, the situation was a bit urgent at that time." Perhaps because of the blood loss, Yukimura Seiki's pale Asakori smiled, as if trying to dispel her uneasiness in the fierceness.He raised his other hand, wanting to touch Ji Li's hair like before, but finally hung it for a while, and then put it down.

"Ji Li, don't be angry." He looked at Ji Li and said softly.

Taking a deep breath, Kushima Jiri closed his eyes, "Did you bring your mobile phone?"

Yukimura Seiichi shook his head, because he came here in a hurry, so he didn't bring anything, and now thinking about it, he was a little reckless.But luckily he came over impulsively, otherwise... His expression darkened.

Because of the incident just now, Kudao Jiri sneered and sneered, "It's really easy not to have your mobile phone with you." Seeing Jili mentioning this, Yukimura Sei The city was silent for a moment.

"It's my problem." He sighed softly, "Kudo-kun told me what happened in the apartment."

Kushima Jiri looked up at him.

"I asked him to tell me," Seiichi Yukimura looked at Ji Li. After that phone call, he realized that he had missed a lot of things, and what he missed was irreversible. "It happened in the apartment where I lived, and I also I heard the news of his arrest. But I never asked about it carefully, nor did I think of it on the phone you gave me that day."

"And that day when you were alone on the road... I couldn't even forgive myself."

Hearing what he said, Kushima Jiri lowered his eyes slightly.

"It's all over, and I'm not angry anymore."

This sentence of 'don't get angry' made Yukimura Seiichi feel a dull pain in his heart more than anything else.

"After I know what happened, it's useless to say anything." His hand moved slightly, as if he wanted to do something, but he finally calmed down. Yukimura suddenly smiled, "Before I saw you, I had a lot of regrets." I want to talk to you."

His voice was still calm and gentle, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was the same as usual.

"After seeing you, I realized that words may be the most powerless thing in this world."

"Yukimura Seiichi, you know that's not why we broke up."

Kushima Jiri's expression finally calmed down, she leaned against Yukimura Seiichi's side, "I sometimes wonder, do you really care about me?"

"No matter how much you do in life for me, I don't feel happy without you around. You had the chance to do it, but you didn't."

"Ji Li..."

"Shh, don't talk, don't move." Kushima Jiri glanced at the wound on Yukimura Seiichi's hand anxiously. She was almost glad that she chose this swimsuit when she picked it up. Now she can only hope that Sonoko will bring it soon. Someone came to them, and she knew that Yukimura must save his energy and cheer up under such circumstances, so she wanted to continue chatting with Yukimura Seiichi.

"say something."

Yukimura Seichi said: "Okay." He thought for a while, "Can Ji Li tell me what you were like before?"

Kushima Jiri was taken aback for a moment.

"Did Shinichi Kudo tell you something?"

He shook his head.

"Even if you find out in this way now, we've already broken up, and we won't go back to the past." Kili Kushima looked into his iris-purple eyes, staring deeply.

Yukimura Seiichi paused: "I really want to know about Ji Li, even if it's just a trivial matter."

"Even though we've broken up."

In the past, he didn't ask because he didn't want to embarrass Ji Li.He knew from Liu that after Ji Li transferred to another school, he kept secrets about his previous school. He guessed that it was a bad past, so he never took the initiative to find out about it, fearing that Ji Li would be unhappy.

But his thoughtfulness seems to have been misplaced.

Why wouldn't you want to know everything about the person you like?

Seeing Yukimura Seiichi's pale face, Kuri Kushima softened her heart. After thinking about it, she decided to start from the beginning.

"My family...you should know something."

Yukimura Seichi nodded, "Mom often talks about Madam Kushima."

The corner of Jiri Jiudao's mouth twitched, "My parents are married and have no feelings for each other." She has never mentioned this matter to anyone, but when she mentioned it now, she was calm: "I haven't enjoyed it. The love from parents, Yukiko's sister often looked down on her when she was very young, and she was taken from the villa to Kudo's house, and lived with Shinichi."

"Perhaps seeing that I was adapting well, my mother simply fired the nanny who took care of me since I was a child, and went to live happily."

In these years, apart from the regular money coming in from the bank card, Jiri Jiudao is almost an orphan.

"You may not feel anything, but... that woman may chat with Aunt Yukimura more often than I do."

Speaking of this, Kushima Jiri sighed and did not go too deep.

"When I was in elementary school, I thought that Ice Tei Elementary School was my property, no one could bully the people of Ice Tei Elementary School, and I didn't allow my classmates not to listen to me.

When she talked about this, she slightly bent the corner of her mouth: "It may sound a little childish and robber logic, but this is me. Xiang Riyue, you should know who it is?"

Seiichi Yukimura, who was listening quietly at the side, responded.

"He was very naughty when he was a child, and he ate my cake once." Kushima Jiri smiled again, "I thought he offended me, so I made him not eat dessert once in school for a week , That's why he's afraid of me now."

"Even if that piece of cake is something I don't want, I don't allow others to touch it. I really can't be considered a kind person at that time."

Later, when he entered the Ice Emperor, Ji Li, who had long regarded the elementary school as his own, would be willing to let the Jingwu Atobe family dominate.An independent discipline committee member, established the executive committee, and became the president of the Western Sword Club in an unreasonable way.

I also had the experience of threatening the teacher and entering the student union to challenge the case.

Kushima Jiri deliberately made himself bad and annoying, and was also extremely jealous and possessive.

"Growing up with me, Hochotaro is inseparable just because he joined the tennis club. I haven't spoken to him for two years."

In the world of the 14-year-old Kushima Jiri, Feng abandoned her first, but she said it first.

But Yukimura Seiichi seemed to only hear those good things, and there was never a moment of disgust and dislike in his eyes watching her.

From the resort murder case in middle school, to Orihara Rinya, until Ji Li had nothing to say, he slowly put his hand on top of her head.

Ji Li is like an insecure child with high self-esteem. If her own things tend to leave, she would rather throw them away than be 'abandoned'.

Because of family reasons, the nanny who was close to her since she was a child was easily dismissed just because she was hired by her parents, and she had no right to keep her.This formed Ji Li's character of enclosing land as king, from kindergarten to junior high school.She regards her friends as belongings, and once they jump out of her range, even if it is only a step, she will never allow them to come back.

How did such a once sensitive and extreme personality become what it is now?Yukimura Seiichi couldn't even imagine what Jiri just laughed off lightly, what kind of mentality she felt when it happened.Falling in love with him, restraining my temper for him, it's only natural to endure him again and again.

"I didn't do a good job and made you sad."

"sorry."

Jiu Daoji ideally said something, but was interrupted by the movement outside.

"someone is coming!"

Yukimura Seiichi felt a large area of ​​white noise in front of his eyes, and his face was as pale as a dead person.

"Jingshi?...Jingshi, don't scare me!"

Kili Kushima panicked for a moment when she realized something was wrong, and she shouted loudly: "There are wounded here, can you hear it—"

They were quickly found. In addition to professionals, there were also Keigo Atobe.

"Ji Li!" Keigo Atobe found her one step faster than anyone else. After confirming that Ji Li, who Yajima Yuta said had been shot, had no wounds on his body, he felt relieved. fall.

"I'm fine, but Jingshi is injured!"

Atobe Keigo noticed Yukimura Seiichi who was sitting on the ground and had closed his eyes. He glanced at the injured part of Yukimura, frowned and picked him up: "Go, I'll take you out, rescue The team is outside, and they looked in another direction."

They only walked a dozen meters forward before meeting other people, and the rescue team was well-equipped, and they gave Yukimura emergency treatment as soon as they boarded the yacht in the sea.

When they got back to the shore, there was already an ambulance waiting by the side.

Watching Seiichi Yukimura get into the ambulance, Kuri Kushima's tight strings suddenly loosened. She staggered and almost fell, but Keigo Atobe helped her in time.

After Ji Li stood firm, Atobe Keigo still did not let go.

He rarely had such an ugly face. When he knew that Yu Yajima was shooting into the cave like crazy, and also said that one person was injured, he never had the idea of ​​wanting to kill someone.

Although Keigo Atobe did not participate in the resort murder incident a few years ago, he clearly remembered that Kudao Jiri went out alone because of his unhappiness with Kudo Shinichi, and was finally found with the corpse and was listed as a suspect human.And this time, Ji Li went to an area that is forbidden to enter after ten o'clock without authorization...

"How many times do you want to learn such a lesson?" The anger welling up because of worry made Atobe Keigo sneer and said, "You just enjoy the feeling that everyone is worried about you? Kushima Jiri, There must be a limit to bloggers’ eyeballs.”

Yuji Shinozu who just came over and was about to say a few words of concern: ...

Is Atobe mad?

He didn't even look at Jiri Kushima's expression now.
