"Did so many things happen?" Dong Hua lowered her eyelids, stretched out her fingers and scratched her cheek with some guilty conscience, "I'm sorry... I forgot everything."

"It was a strange classmate at the time," Akashi patted her head indifferently, "It's normal that Donghua didn't take it to heart."

As he spoke, he gently took the photo frame from Donghua's hand. Even after several years, the photos inside were still well preserved, with bright and clear colors.Akashi's slender fingertips slowly brushed across the crystal panel, as gentle as a handful of slowly flowing fine water. The girl he depicted was wearing a complicated and gorgeous long dress, standing among all the performers, holding a Rose is looking at the camera with a calm expression.

However, the facial features are thick and colorful, and under the bright white light, it contrasts with a bit of freshness and beauty.

"However, if you still feel sorry," Akashi put the photo frame back to its original place, turned his head and smiled at her, and there was a bit of cunning in the curved arc, "Can you play a song for me?"

Dong Hua was startled, and then realized after blinking in a daze.The boy's calm and gentle red pupils were close at hand, and the two of their eyes just met in the air. Donghua immediately turned her head away with a blushing face. She cleared her throat to cover up, walked to the piano with her skirt in her hand, and played the piano. Sit down: "What do you want to hear?"

"The one you played for him," Akashi sat on the floor with his knees bent on the floor indifferently, and smiled at her with his elbows on his knees, "the lullaby that grandma used to lull you to sleep—if you can, Now please play for me."

Donghua paused, her gaze slowly sank, the sunlight from outside the window crept in inch by inch, covering her face with endless tenderness, and the fine dust had nowhere to hide in the beam of light.After a while, the girl's eyelashes, which were reflected in gold, flickered, and she nodded slightly: "Okay."

So she opened the cover of the piano, and her slender and slender white fingertips climbed up to the keys, and the full and penetrating syllables flowed smoothly from her hand immediately, which was different from the one played for that person—the tone turned to sad and clear The background color is darkened, and the girl in a white dress no longer runs with a bouquet of flowers in the bright sunshine, but slows down, sits on the stone steps in the rain, hugs her knees, her eyes are quiet and peaceful. Talk to him about something.

The melody hovers melodiously in the air, like wisps of rain, and finally dissipates slowly and transparently.

The piano room was silent, only the slight sound of the curtain being lifted by the wind.

It took a while before Akashi clapped his hands, and the monotonous syllables exploded, breaking the silence, and at the same time making another person in the room withdraw from the emotional vortex: "Compared to the previous one."

Dong Hua immediately came back to her senses, and turned her head to look over in a daze, the faint worry in her face was still deep in her eyes and never faded away.

Akashi met her eyes squarely, and smiled slowly: "I still like this version better—what does Fuyuka think?"

Immediately, she frowned slightly, lowered her eyelids in surprise, stared at her knuckles, wondering what she was thinking.

Dust floats quietly in the air.

After a while, the emotion in her eyes was like ice that was slowly melting, and it became clear in vain, and she closed her eyes softly and smiled with some relief: "That would be great."

Akashi stood up from the floor: "Go and have a rest, before lunch I will call—"

The last syllable was stuck in his throat, as if a soft wind was blowing into his arms, Akashi opened his eyes wide, and subconsciously stretched out his arms to hug the girl who suddenly rushed over.

Donghua hugged his neck tightly on her tiptoes, buried her face in his shoulder socket, until her breath was completely stained with his smell - that kind of clean and warm herbal aroma with body temperature.She just moved her head a little, resting her head on his stiff shoulders, breathing tightly, as if what she said next would make her very embarrassed, Dong Hua bit her lower lip shyly, whispered firmly to him In the ear: "...can you stay with me for a while?"

The girl in his arms was like a poor kitten caught in the rain. Akashi paused for a moment, and then his eyes melted into a smile. His warm palm passed through the long hair that fell down, and pinched the back of Donghua's neck: "certainly."

Back in the room, Dong Hua let go of his little finger, took off his shoes first, quickly ran to the bed, knelt down on the carpet, and beckoned to him with bright eyes.

Akashi laughed dumbfoundedly, took off his shoes and walked over to sit beside her.

Dong Hua stretched out her hands to tidy up the spread out skirt, glanced at the cat climbing frame that had been placed in the room out of the corner of her eye, and thought with some gratitude: "Fortunately, No. [-] is still playing outside."

"Does Donghua want to play with something? Or talk?" Akashi propped his chin and tilted his head to look at her.

"...When you say that, I suddenly don't know what to do." Dong Hua loosened her shoulders in frustration, and unconsciously grabbed his hand, playing with the boy's slender fingers one by one.

Akashi opened his hand and let her pinch it. After thinking for a while, he suggested, "Play chess?"

"But a game of shogi takes a long time," Donghua puffed her cheeks, "and the game will unconsciously become a competition, and the mind is very tired."

"It's not shogi," Akashi turned his wrist, squeezed her palm upwards, stood up and took a small box from her desk, "it's backgammon."

"Huh?" Dong Hua looked at the small translucent box in front of her, and blinked with some doubts, "Gobang?"

"Haven't Donghua played this before?" Akashi took out the chess pieces from the box with great interest, and spread the chessboard between the two of them, "I saw this by accident when I went to the convenience store."

"..."

Donghua was silent for a while, and wanted to say that she actually played with Yukimura Seiichi in Kanagawa when she was a child, but combined with the previous few times when she mentioned Yukimura, the red-haired boy always behaved differently, no matter how slow she was, she could still detect it. What's the problem.

"Well, I really haven't played it before." Donghua pursed her lips, and nodded firmly in order to confirm what she said.

"What color chess pieces do you use?" Two hands were stretched out in front of him, and there were two colors of chess pieces in the white palms of the young man.

"White." Dong Hua obediently cupped her hands into a bowl, indicating that he could turn it upside down.

Akashi put Kuroko on his side: "You first?"

"Hmm—" Dong Hua tilted her head and thought for a while, "Let's guess the punch."

"..." Seijuro Akashi suddenly glanced at her with a smile, "Are you sure about Fuyuka?"

"What's so uncertain about this?"

The red-haired boy seemed to be having a headache, while shaking his head, he reached out and untied the cuff buttons: "I'm absolutely sure."

"...Don't say such things in such a tone." Dong Hua couldn't bear to look directly at her and turned her head, but she couldn't help laughing, "You always feel so outrageous when you say this."

"But it's true." Akashi stretched out his fist.

Dong Hua raised half of her eyebrows in disbelief: "No matter how absolute you are, it's impossible to win all battles in boxing games, right? You're not a person with superpowers."

"Then—one, two."

The two gestured at the same time.

"..." Dong Hua looked at his "cloth" in disbelief, and then looked down at her "stone", "What a coincidence?!"

"It's not a coincidence," Akashi looked at her leisurely, and turned his wrist with an expression of "I just said so", "It's absolutely."

"..." Dong Hua straightened her back unconsciously, and took another deep breath, "I don't believe it, it must be a coincidence, let's come again!"

"Stop playing backgammon?" Akashi smiled helplessly seeing her suddenly serious expression.

Dong Hua turned her head and glanced at the hanging watch, crossed her fingers, turned her wrist ready to go, and said solemnly: "There is still a long time before lunch, backgammon will be played later, I must prove--this It's just a coincidence, it's an uncertain event!"

"Okay," Akashi nodded indulgently, "You decide."

…………

Dong Hua stood on the carpet dumbfounded, looked at her palm in disbelief, and revealed such a strong suspicion for the first time: "...is it a lie???"

Akashi Seijuro-kun, who just won 37 wins and [-] draws, gently reminded: "No."

"This, how is this possible!" Dong Hua grabbed his hand, brought the young boy's white palm to her eyes, widened her eyes in disbelief, and carefully measured them inch by inch, "You don't really have super powers. Ability?!"

It's the kind of person who wears green glasses, has two large lollipops on top of his head, and talks fast.

Akashi cooperatively stretched out his hand and was turned over by her, with a complicated expression on his face: "No matter how hard Donghua looks for it, he can't find the mechanism. This...is a human hand."

"But this is too strange," Dong Hua frowned, "I haven't won any of the fifty rounds, how is this possible?"

"Midorima said the same thing before," Akashi squeezed his chin with two fingers, as if recalling, "but he didn't win until graduation." (Note)

"..." Donghua straightened up, her complexion suddenly returned to calm - so calm that she was a little numb, and then she remembered something, and her eyes lit up, "What about tossing a coin? Can Seijuro predict the literal and flowered noodles?"

"I haven't tried it," Akashi said, and then raised the corners of his lips confidently and gently, "but I think there should be no problem."

Donghua didn't want to question any more, she quickly took out a coin from her wallet - that was just brought by Akashi for exchanging currency value for her a few days ago, otherwise neither of their wallets could find the coin Come.

"This, Seijuro, please throw it away." Donghua pursed her lips, put her hands on her knees, and watched his movements seriously.

Akashi didn't refuse at all. He held the coin in his palm and tossed it up. The coin rose and fell in the air, and the boy clasped it on the back of his hand neatly: "Yes."

Moving away the hand on the back of the hand, Donghua immediately leaned forward to look: "Ah, it's really a word!... Seijuro, you—"

"Too powerful?" Akashi held the coin in the palm of his hand, tilted his head and smiled at her, and there was a bit of vivid complacency in the curved arc.

"No," Dong Hua ruthlessly opened his hand and took the coin back, "I've surpassed the realm of 'powerful', I just want to say something ridiculous."

The author has something to say:
