[Net King] Winter Snow

When Uemura Yuriko and Harada Yoshihei came out from the student union together, it was already late.The color of the setting sun outside the window of the teaching building became almost invisible, leaving only the dark blue tone like night in the sky.

Saying goodbye to the boy with gentle hair at the entrance of the corridor, Yuriko Uemura felt a little regretful.Although I originally promised Yoshihei Harada to go to the student union together to familiarize myself with the environment, but I didn't expect the two of them to stroll around for nearly an hour. When the girl noticed the time on the watch again, the sky was infinitely close to dark blue.

The girl looked at the stairs, then at the corridor leading to Group C, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards the classrooms of Group C without hope.Although she didn't think Genichiro Sanada would still be waiting for her in the classroom after such a long time, there was still a feeling of undying hope that Huang He couldn't die, which drove the girl to confirm the boy's departure.

Standing at the door of the classroom in Group C, Yuriko Uemura put her hand on the handle of the door panel. Afraid to see the empty scene after opening the door, the girl paused for a long time before biting her lower lip, mustering up the courage to pull it hard.

As the sliding door of the classroom was opened little by little, Yuriko Uemura saw a person meeting her eyes in the already dim classroom.

"Genichiro?!" Unbelievable that Sanada Genichiro was still there, Uemura Yuriko couldn't help but exclaimed.

"En." The black-haired boy just nodded and answered the girl dully.

Seeing Genichiro Sanada pick up the uniform bag from the side of the desk and slowly walk towards her in the night, Yuriko Uemura was speechless for a moment.

Every time in the past, because the boy had the position of a disciplinary committee member, Yuriko Uemura sat in the classroom and waited for him to finish his inspection.She has sat in the classroom countless times and watched the students around her pick up their schoolbags and leave one by one. After saying goodbye to them with a smile, she lowered her head and wrote her homework until Genichiro Sanada opened the door of the classroom and said something to her. "gone".

She had never experienced anything like this before, opening the door of the classroom in a teaching building where the crowd had dispersed, and seeing someone waiting for her to go home with her from beginning to end.

——Unexpectedly heartwarming and moving.

"Let's go." Genichiro Sanada said in his usual low voice when he walked past Uemura Yuriko.

"Yeah." With a big smile, the girl quickly followed the opponent's pace.

When I walked out of the school gate, the sky was completely dark, and the street lamps on the street were turned on one by one.The warm orange light against the glass windows of the merchandise store, Yuriko Uemura could see herself and Genichiro Sanada walking side by side, with the perfect height difference like a couple.

"Hey, is Genichiro going to the tennis club?" Yuriko Uemura asked, turning her head to ask the boy beside her.

"Well, with my classmate Yukimura." Genichiro Sanada nodded.

"Sure enough." The girl shrugged and continued, "When I came to the gate of your group at noon today, I saw that you and the boy named Yukimura seemed to be chatting very speculatively. Later, when Harada came to my side, he also mentioned you. Going to the tennis club."

When he heard Harada Yoshihei's name, Genichiro Sanada's originally calm eyes suddenly rippled a little. The boy seemed to want to frown, but before frowning, he seemed to think of something and said, "When school is over Is it...?" Genichiro Sanada's voice was a little dry.

"What?" Yuriko Uemura tilted her head to look at Genichiro Sanada as if she didn't understand the boy's words.

"Harada-kun came to see you, is it after school?" Sanada himself didn't know why he would ask such words, but when he heard Yuriko Uemura mention Yoshihei Harada, the two of them couldn't help appearing in his mind The back view of leaving Group C together.

Without immediately answering Genichiro Sanada's question, Yuriko Uemura stared at the boy for a while before saying, "No, it was during lunch break, she said she saw me wandering around the door of Group C and came over to ask if I was okay .”

"..." Genichiro Sanada fell silent for a moment after hearing the girl's answer.

"But when it comes to school, I did meet Harada." Yuriko Uemura did not notice Sanada's reaction at all, and continued to recall, "He told me that Genichiro, you went to the tennis club to hand in the club application form. , and asked me if I want to go to the student union together to have a look... Well, that's why I made you wait so long, I'm sorry."

"Are you going to the student union?" Seizing the key words in Uemura's words, Genichiro Sanada asked.

"Well," nodded casually, Yuriko Uemura raised her index finger and gestured in the air, "Because Genichiro has already decided to go to the tennis club, and I don't have any interested clubs here, so it happened that Harada asked me if I wanted to join him at noon. Join the student union, and I agree."

Seeing the girl standing next to him keep talking about what happened today, Genichiro Sanada felt a little impetuous for no reason.In the past, the topic of Yuriko Uemura was always about trivial matters, but today I don't know why Harada Yoshihei can be mentioned in every sentence.

"By the way, I also met a super cute girl today, named Chu Liangxue." Seeing that the topic of Yuriko Uemura finally left Harada, Genichiro Sanada heaved a sigh of relief, "Just sit with me Earlier, you had bento with me at noon."

"Not only that, but she also seems to like our group's Nioh-kun. Ah, Nioh-kun is her childhood sweetheart's neighbor. When Harada came to see me at noon, that Nioh-kun dragged Chuliang away in an ambiguous way."

"But then it was too much. After Harada left, I sat in a daze in my seat, but Chuliang asked me if I liked Harada. It was really... too much!"

"Pa—" Suddenly, Genichiro Sanada's uniform bag fell to the ground.

"Xianichiro...?" Seeing the young man bending over to pick up the bag, Uemura Yuriko's eyes became worried, "What's wrong, you've been a little strange since just now..."

The girl's words stopped Genichiro Sanada's movements, and the black-haired boy couldn't help tightening his hand holding the uniform bag, "It's okay, maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

Yuriko Uemura looked at Genichiro Sanada's steps forward, and lowered her eyes a little.The boy's words were obviously an excuse, but it was his own wrong words that made Sanada Genichiro become abnormal, and Yuriko Uemura had no idea.

Seeing that the black-haired boy was already ten steps away from her, Yuriko Uemura woke up suddenly, and ran forward quickly to catch up with him.

The street lamps on the street were still shining continuously, and the soft and bright light stretched the shadows of the boy and the girl very long.The figures of the two people looked as if they were walking side by side on the ground, but in fact the distance between Sanada Genichiro and Uemura Yuriko was even further than before.

The girl didn't know how to describe the strange atmosphere at the moment, since that moment just now, she didn't know what to say.Silently walking home with that boy, Genichiro Sanada also kept silent.

Uemura Yuriko was not used to the deathly silence, and she peeked at the boy beside her from the corner of her eyes from time to time.But the other party's face was hard to see under the night.

"That..." Yuriko Uemura finally couldn't stand the atmosphere, and opened her mouth.

"You're here." It was Genichiro Sanada's deep voice that spoke at the same time as the girl.

After being told by the black-haired boy, Yuriko Uemura realized that this was already the range of the street where she lived.The girl looked at the road she took to go home, then at the road Genichiro Sanada took when he turned right, and finally evoked a faint smile, and said softly, "Then I'll go first, bye."

"See you tomorrow." Genichiro Sanada's voice was unexpectedly different from his usual full-bodied voice for some reason.Uemura Yuriko couldn't see the other party's expression, and the street lamp behind the boy made his face hidden in the hazy darkness.

Walking on the uphill road, Genichiro Sanada felt that his condition today was simply terrible.It was his worst mistake to constantly feel irritable because of Yoshihei Harada. The boy never thought that the fact that Harada's name was constantly mentioned by Yuriko Uemura would make him feel so irritable.

And his own behavior made the boy feel extremely bad. When he heard someone say that Uemura likes Harada, his brain seemed to be bombarded by something, and suddenly went blank. For a moment, he didn't even want to hear Yuriko Uemura mention about Harada Yoshihira again. any sentence.

This completely irrational behavior shouldn't belong to him at all, and the inexplicable low air pressure even made Uemura Yuriko silent in the second half of the road.The boy felt that things should not have developed like this, and he also wanted to tell Uemura Yuriko that he was really fine, but when he saw the girl's cautious eyes cast on him from time to time, his mood became even worse.
