[Black Basket] Together with the Light

"It's raining outside." Midorima Aikai, who was washing dishes, turned to Takeuchi who was on the side.

Takeuchi was cutting fruit, and looked at the knife in his hand without looking up: "It's okay, I'm bringing an umbrella."

"Be considerate." Sister Midorima didn't bother to let Takeuchi stay anymore, she sighed and turned around to continue washing the dishes. The sink is facing the window. At the turn of spring and summer, there is still the last trace of the sky after dinner. bright.

"Going to school alone, checking the weather forecast before going out is an essential step." Takeuchi put the sliced ​​oranges into the fruit plate, then smiled and looked at Midorima Aihai, with a somewhat smug expression A little teasing, "Enjoy the days when you are finally served by others."

Aihai Lvjian raised a foam-stained bowl from the sink: "Where am I being served!"

Takeuchi stuffed a small tomato into her mouth.

Midorima Aikai puffed her cheeks and was unable to speak, she glanced at Takeuchi sadly, then turned back to continue washing the dishes.

After eating the fruit and helping to clean it up, Takeuchi got up to say goodbye.

Midorima Aikai was a little disappointed, but she didn't hold on to Takeuchi either.

No more children.

If Takeuchi was still a middle school student and the adults were not around, staying overnight on a rainy day would be justified, but she is now a college student with the ability to act independently.

It is impossible for Takeuchi to ask Midorima to send her back to school, but it is polite to send a section when the guest leaves, and Takeuchi cannot refuse.

When Shintaro Midorima and Keko Takeuchi went out side by side, the shower had stopped, the ground was wet, and there was a faint earthy smell in the air.

Zhu Nei turned his head and motioned Midorima to look at the house next door: "Who lives here now?"

Midorima glanced and replied: "One family."

Takeuchi: "..." It seems that this family is quite unpleasant.Thinking of the unpleasant person living in his former home, Takeuchi felt a little sad.

"Send me a message when you get to school."

Midorima sent Takeuchi to the station, and waited for the girl to get on the bus before going back. He said so sternly when he left.

Takeuchi smiled wryly: "It's really..." She didn't complain, "I see."

When the bus arrived at the subway station, it was raining again. Takeuchi looked up at the timetable of the train entering the station. The electronic screen showed that it was nine o'clock.

On weekends, at nine o'clock, the subway station was very lively, full of people of all kinds, but not noisy at all. Takeuchi took out his mobile phone and turned it to silent before entering the train.The train arrived at the station 10 minutes later. Takeuchi was familiar with the road and the old horse knew the way. She found the exit she wanted to go in the intricate and complicated Tokyo underground transportation system. After standing at the exit, she hesitated.

I don’t know when the rain started to get heavy. It was raining heavily and it was windy. Even if you held an umbrella, you would get wet. There were many people standing at the entrance of the subway station, holding umbrellas in their hands but refusing to leave. They wanted to wait for the rain to subside. some.

Summer has not yet arrived, and the temperature at night is a bit low. If it is another day, Takeuchi will not care, it will be wet if it is wet, just go back and take a shower.But today... relatives are here.

Thinking that he was not in a hurry anyway, Takeuchi wandered between waiting at the subway entrance or going to the basement floor for a cup of milk tea, and finally decided to wait in a place where he could see the rain.The girl stood among the crowd, taking out her mobile phone to kill time.The subway station is very close to Dongda University. I don’t know how long it will take for the rain to subside. Takeuchi sent a text message to Midorima: "I'm here."

The reply from the other end was quick, with two simple words: "Received."

Then Takeuchi surfed Twitter, and every time he refreshed, it was full of news from the madman Kise, the latest one: "I'm hungry." Below is a picture of Oden.

Takeuchi carefully stared at the store in the corner of the photo for a while, and it became more and more familiar to him. Isn't this the milk tea shop on the lower floor where she hesitated to go for a drink?

Kise's message was sent 10 minutes ago. Takeuchi looked at the rain that hadn't abated at all, put his phone in his pocket, opened his umbrella and walked out fearlessly.

East University is considered half of the scenic spots, and the subway station is very recognizable. Huang Lai posted such a picture... Brave little friend, I will come to play with you after I have completed the stunt of Heizi_(:з」∠)_

The wind was strong, and the umbrella surface was sunken by the blowing. The steel umbrella ribs stood strong and upright. Takeuchi held the umbrella handle tightly with both hands and walked forward against the wind. She was thinking of Kise's tweets, thinking of what he said about being a model He doesn't like being prying into his privacy - Kise's behavior obviously doesn't match his goal.Although he kept calling him Erhuang Erhuang, Huang Lai was actually the same at all, not confused.

Don't want to sacrifice so much for the model.

Kise didn't want to sacrifice more than privacy for the model.

It is close to Dongda University, and there are many people who look like college students. Young people are impatient. Due to economic and status reasons, they will not dress like those experienced people at the subway entrance. There is no need to be afraid of getting wet with expensive suits, so most of them choose to wear clothes with Takeuchi also marched in the rain, and some people didn't even hold an umbrella.

Takeuchi squinted and looked at the person without an umbrella from under the edge of the umbrella. It turned out to be a girl, who was vaguely familiar through the rain curtain.

Takeuchi was stunned for a moment, and lifted the umbrella, and the person walking in front of him was indeed someone he knew.

"A Ning?"

Takeuchi yelled, but the drenched girl didn't respond.

There is an intersection ahead, and the signal lights on the opposite side can only see a blur of colors, red and red.

Leng Ning looked up and looked at the opposite side, and then looked left and right. There were no vehicles. She hesitated for a while, and then stepped down the sidewalk and stepped on the zebra crossing.After taking the first step, the rest will be logical, and she took the second step without hesitation.

Then she was pulled back by Takeuchi.

"Don't, don't, just wait a bit." Zhuuchi said and pulled Leng Ning back, the umbrella propped on the heads of the two of them was just more talk than nothing.

Leng Ning turned to look at her in a daze: "Mr. Zhuuchi..."

The voice was soft and floaty, and Zhu Nei was startled.

Just in time, a car drove past, the headlights illuminated Leng Ning's face, and there was a red and swollen palm mark on the right cheek.

"What, what's going on?" Takeuchi looked at the distraught girl in front of him, and he was also in a mess. The umbrella on his head couldn't stop the rain at all, and the rain dripping down his back made Takeuchi regain his senses, "Go back to the dormitory first." .”

A moment later, when the two girls returned to the dormitory, they were already wet from the inside to the outside. Under the bright lights in the corridor, Leng Ning came back a little bit. She took out the key from her pocket stiffly, opened the door, and lifted the key belatedly. Hands blocked the palm prints on his face.Her eyes dodged, and her voice was full of tears: "Takeuchi-kun, thank you for today."

Takeuchi didn't know what happened to Leng Ning, and didn't know how to comfort him, so he simply skipped over and just said: "Take a bath and change clothes, be careful not to catch a cold."

"Yeah." Leng Ning made a move to close the door, "Takeuchi-kun too."

"If there is anything I can do to help, just knock on the door next door." Before Leng Ning closed the door completely, Takeuchi smiled reassuringly and said so.

Back in his dormitory, the first thing Takeuchi did was of course take a shower.

Leng Ning's state made her very worried, so she specially turned on the ringer of her mobile phone and took her mobile phone into the bathroom.

According to the usual direction of the story, the current situation is definitely going to be a climax...

Takeuchi wiped the shampoo on his head, thinking happily.

After taking a hot bath safely and comfortably, Takeuchi felt a little better, thinking that the author had a bit of a conscience.

She thought again, it seems that she heard that this is a journal?

Before the thoughts in his head were finished, the mobile phone on the sink rang, it was Kise.

"Hey?"

The voice on the other end was noisy, and Huang Lai's tone seemed anxious: "Xiao Zhizi, where are you now? Did you see Aning?"

"I'm in the dormitory now, and Aning is back, and I met her on the way back." Takeuchi answered Kise's question, and then asked, "What happened?" She didn't mention the slap on Leng Ning's face for now print.

"Huh——" Huang Lai obviously breathed a sigh of relief, "I won't be able to tell for a while, I will call you later. I will report to Aning's parents first."

"Okay." As soon as Takeuchi finished speaking, Kise hung up the phone neatly.

Two minutes later, Kise called, and the environment over there had become much quieter.

"In general, Aning wants to enter the entertainment industry but her parents don't agree." Huang Lai said this, "Ah Ning's parents are very traditional, so I don't need to explain the reasons for their disapproval. Before she signed up, The interviews were all kept from her family, and she also paid attention to the information on the registration form. The address was filled in the school, and the contact information was all her personal. She went home for the sports meeting today and answered the phone call from the studio I was overheard by my mother."

Kise ended the sentence with a not-so-obvious sigh.

He paused for a while and said again: "I didn't realize until I received a call from Aunt Leng that Aning is Chinese, Xiao Zhizi."

Huang Lai's words were very abrupt, Takeuchi was taken aback for a moment, then a flash of light flashed in her mind, she caught something, she slowly and tentatively said to herself, "She wants to be a full-time actress. "

"Yeah." Kise responded affirmatively.

In the fast food restaurant where the sound of the rain was cut off, Kise faced the glass wall and straightened the bangs that were drenched on his forehead after being drenched. It was no surprise that after hearing Takeuchi's answer, the reflection of himself raised his face. A faint smile.

She can understand what he said cryptically, and there is indeed a tacit understanding between them.

In the Japanese entertainment industry, the grading treatment of artists is very obvious. The low-level artists are even "abused", the managers don't show good looks, the work meals are rice and pickles, and the rest time is infinitely squeezed and so on.After entering the industry, you have to go through the stage of trainees. During this period, various benefits and benefits are extremely low, and it is even more harsh for non-national artists.

Leng Ning is an international student at the University of Tokyo. You can't get into a world-renowned university with money. She must have strength. Studying in such a school can basically be called an elite.

She doesn't have to worry about work, she has a bright future.

Why be an artist?

Takeuchi then asked: "Do you want me to persuade her?"

It's rare for Huang Lai not to play tricks: "Yes."

But Takeuchi played tricks: "Why me, you know her better?"

"If you can't do it, I'll come again." Huang Lai dragged his tone and played tricks, and then he became serious again, "I'm a boy, some things are not easy to say, and Ah Ning may not be able to listen to them. After so many years I haven't seen you, and if you say you are familiar, you are really not very familiar."

The author has something to say: I think... just staying for one night is not enough for me...
