Cherish the time

Suddenly encountering such a drastic change, the whole person's emotions are suppressed, and there is an urgent need for a way to vent.

otherwise…

The existence of Taya Ryo is about to be destroyed from the inside out.

Takebu, who was watching from a distance, touched his chin subconsciously, remembering Shinto's exhortation to him to "take good care of Ryo Toya".

So he stepped forward and patted Taya, who was deserted outside the operating room, lightly.

A warm breath was sent into the opponent's body by him.

The green-haired young man rolled his eyelids and fell sideways.

...

……

"...Xiao Liang? Xiao Liang?" Shinto Hikaru waved his hand in front of him, "What are you thinking?"

--what?

Ta Yaliang froze for a moment, then replied subconsciously, "...it's nothing."

"Are you afraid?" Shinto asked him with some doubts, "If you are afraid, you should stop playing this game."

--what?

Only then did Taya Ryo divert his mind a little to observe the surrounding situation.

When he was distracted, the mountains and seas of noise, laughter, and exclamation rushed into his ears, and together with the endless and dotted amusement facilities in his eyes, they instantly brought him into a huge world. in the amusement park.

And in front of them, there is a "SteelDragon2000" introduction sign.

Taya Ryo: ...

Kondo quickly understood his silence correctly and turned a corner to line up next door.

Until the two got off the same bumper car, Taya Ryo had almost accepted this setting, and played happily with Shinto.

— In fact, he had long since disliked playing in places like amusement parks.

But the one who can't stand it now is Shindo Hikaru.

For Taya Ryo, as long as he can stay by Shinto Hikari's side, he is very happy.

As soon as they started playing, it was a posture of not wanting to stop until they visited the entire amusement park.

Spinning Cup, Leaping Frog, Flying Carpet, Pirate Ship, Space Ship, Riptide Burial...

The two played more and more excitingly. When they finally came out of the haunted house, they looked at each other, and then pointed at each other's pale face and laughed.

The young man's laughter burst out of his chest, the crowd, and the boundless blue sky!

Everything seemed so pleasant.

Apart from…

Taya Ryo paused for a while while holding the water gun.

Except... what?

Shinto next to him quickly shot down the last target that stood up, and then a big "YOUWIN" jumped out of the operation panel in front of Shinto.

Shinto made a "YES" gesture and laughed happily: "I won!"

The smile on his face was so bright that Taya couldn't help but want to smile back.

"Want to eat ice cream?" Shinto, who won, was in a good mood, "I treat you."

"Uh... ok."

As soon as Shinto opened his mouth, Toya Ryo's attention was immediately attracted, and he forgot the little bit of something wrong that he had just noticed.

The two bought ice cream and came out, and saw the tall Ferris wheel standing directly in front of them.

"Playing?" Shindo Hikari tilted his head and motioned, "Isn't this kind of scary?"

"Not afraid." Taya replied briefly, without trying to argue that he didn't want to ride the roller coaster because he was afraid.

So the two lined up in the line of the Ferris wheel.

These two tall and tall adults, each holding a three-ball ice cream, stand out in the line, not to mention how conspicuous they are.

As the team moved forward at a constant speed, there were always groups of little girls sneaking a few glances at them and then chirping and laughing together.

Taya Ryo, like Shinto Hikaru, is the type who doesn't care much about the opinions of others, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with his actions at the moment.

——But how to eat this thing...it really stumped him.

Seeing Taya Ryo's tangled expression of not knowing where to start eating the ice cream, Shinto made fun of him a few words and motioned him to move his mouth from the side.

The green-haired teenager Ai Ai took two bites, and almost pushed the ball on the top to fall off. Seeing that, Shinto called "timeout" nervously.

"Why do you use so much force when eating! Just lick it casually," the blond young man told him nervously, "it's too wasteful to drop it on the ground."

Seeing him so nervous about the ice cream, Taya Ryo felt a little weird, but more importantly, he saw the other party's rare and lively surprise.

So he licked the mango ball on the top obediently, and when he saw the other party nodded with an expression of "a child can be taught", he couldn't help laughing sullenly.

The two of them chatted while eating ice cream, the things they talked about were very complicated, and there were huge jumps between them.

But the two were able to continue the chat that might be difficult for others to understand.

Just because they already know each other better than they know themselves.

"Speaking of it, Xiaoliang," when they talked about the silly cat on the roof of the chess academy, Shinto suddenly asked, "Do you remember the chess game I played last time?"

— last time?

Ta Yaliang was stunned for a moment, unable to remember when they "last" played chess.

"How can you not remember," Jin Teng saw that he didn't respond, and suddenly frowned a little resentfully, "Think about it when you go back, you must remember it."

Ta Yaliang nodded subconsciously, and saw the other party smile helplessly.

"...after all, that chess game... you played so well."

When he smiled, the whole person changed back to the appearance in Taya Ryo's memory.

...so warm and genial...you can't help feeling nostalgic for him.

Ta Yaliang's heart moved, and a faint pink appeared on his face.

A restlessness quietly rose in my heart.

…he wants--

"Ah, the Ferris wheel is here." Shinto suddenly patted him, and got into the cockpit of the Ferris wheel first.

Taya followed suit.

Things like the Ferris wheel first appeared to compete with the Eiffel Tower in Paris, but because of its unique entertainment, it became a kind of amusement project that everyone loves.

It's just that later some painful and hypocritical human beings began to attach various romantic and beautiful love legends to the Ferris wheel.

Fortunately, Toya Ryo and Shinto Hikari didn't know about those nonsense, so they didn't have any obsessions like "must kiss on the top of the Ferris wheel". They just watched the scenery change outside the window and showed admiration. .

When they reached the middle of the ferris wheel, less than a kilometer in front of them, a roller coaster full of passengers was slowly heading towards the top of a huge steel monster.

Shinto's eyes suddenly brightened.

After hanging in the air for two seconds, the car of people screamed and dived down, the sound was so loud that it could almost spread throughout the amusement park.

——In fact, when they played all the way before, they heard this kind of undisguised scream every few minutes, and they almost became a habit.

"When I leave later, I'll go play. How about you wait for me down there?" Shindo Hikaru's eyes lit up, and finally he couldn't help but turn around and ask him, his tone revealing that he was undisguised expect.

Ta Yaliang agreed casually, but finally felt something was wrong.

——Is now... the time to play this kind of thing?

Why does he feel that... there are more important things waiting for him...?

Ta Yaliang thought for a moment, but couldn't figure out what it was.

His thinking seemed to be stuffed into a large group of vague clouds and fog, covering some important things, which made him feel a little unreasonable.

"Small light!"

Just when he was restless, Shinto grabbed his hand with great interest, "Look below."

Ta Yaliang, who was suddenly caught by him, was stunned for a moment, and then looked in the direction of his line of sight, and saw a group of people parading in Pokemon doll costumes coming down.

The leader is a fat guy, who is walking forward while talking with a microphone.

Ta Yaliang glanced at the blond young man sitting opposite with some doubts.

Familiar figure, familiar appearance, familiar voice, familiar clothes...

But he just felt...

— not right.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, no matter how he looks at it, he feels that something is wrong.

The doubts in my heart swelled up.

He frowned, always feeling that Hikari Shinto was not like this.

——He should be clear and cold, flat, calm and introverted... like a deep well with no bottom to see.

"...No." Ta Yaliang suddenly muttered, and suddenly broke away from the opponent's hand.

The excited blond boy looked at him with some doubts, "Xiao Liang...what are you doing?"

"...You are not Hikari Shinto." He said softly, his tone was unprecedentedly serious.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shinto frowned, and tried his forehead with his hand, "Do you have a fever?"

Taya avoided his hand, feeling an indescribable feeling that seemed to burst through his chest.

"You're not Shinto Hikari."

He spoke word by word, trying to find out the source of the discomfort in his chest through this sentence.

Shindo Hikari had an expression of "you are cured if you are sick", and finally wanted to reach out to pull him.

"...All right, all right, I'm not Shinto Hikaru."

"Anyway, I've had enough fun today, how about going back after a while...?"

He paused without a trace, his tone full of helplessness.

Ta Yaliang dodged his hand, not letting the other party hold him.

"You're not Shinto Hikari..."

"because…"

"Because of what?" the other party asked him in a coaxing tone.

"because--"

Ta Yaliang gritted his teeth and said, panting as if he was fighting something invisible, his whole face flushed red.

"because of him--"

"Ok?"

"Because Shinto Hikaru——is about to die!"

He finally couldn't restrain himself from yelling, and all the suppressed emotions in his heart burst out suddenly.

For a moment, the entire playground came to a standstill, except for the two who were still confronting each other, everything else was fixed at the moment when his voice just fell.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird.

Ta Yaliang panted and looked at Shinto, but saw that the corner of the other party's mouth was slightly hooked, but there was a very familiar look of helplessness on his face.

"This kind of thing...Of course I know."

Shinto Hikari sighed, shoulders on both sides drooping visibly.

"—and now, you know too."

After he said this with a loving expression, his whole person gradually became transparent.

Ta Yaliang was stunned for a moment.

"Goodbye, Xiaoliang."

"Although I didn't make it into a roller coaster...but I'm very happy today."

The clear voice gradually became smaller, farther away, until it was as soft as a whisper.

"...the rest of the way..."

"...Only you can go alone..."

As soon as this sentence was finished, Shinto, who was so transparent that there was almost no outline, disappeared from Taya Ryo's eyes together with the entire static playground.

——!

Taya woke up suddenly, and then began to cough violently.

——His posture was wrong when he fell asleep, and now he was choking on his own saliva, and he couldn't breathe for a while.

Just as he was coughing uncontrollably, the red light outside the operating room quietly went out.

A doctor in a white coat came out.

The Shinto family, who had been waiting for a long time, gathered together.

Taya's heart also rose to her throat——

The author has something to say: the full conclusion of the extra episode!
