Sunday without Qi

——Kissing the god of death, the soul will be taken away.

When I left Yato's lips, the thing that disappeared from my body didn't come back.I scratched the air in confusion, but nothing happened.

It was still raining as hard as it was.

Yetou's face was covered by the soft street lamps, and at the same time immersed in the grand rain and fog, it looked very hazy, and the expression on that blurred face at the moment looked too unusual - I have never seen him show such expression.

"What?" He looked at me quietly, and then waited for my answer with bright eyes.

My throat choked.

With my feet tilted, I subconsciously avoided Yato's sight, and turned to Akashi: [Did you see it? 】

In a very inappropriate scene, Akashi's face was clearly embarrassed. He glanced at Yato and then at me with uncertainty, before slowly saying, "If you see the line, you have seen it, but It was just now..."

He turned around and pointed to Kamijou, who was supporting one of them. At that time, one of them had passed out, and every cell in Kamijou's body was filled with panic and worry.

[Heart to heart. 】

[I use this super power to lock myself with one party, when I kiss Yato, he will kiss Kamijou too. 】

[Although it is convenient and will promote the development of things, the person who is bound will have great sequelae.But don't worry too much, it's just that you will lose consciousness for a while. 】

Akashi nodded, and went to Kamijou and Yifang with an umbrella, "I see. Let Kamijou not worry."

【Um. 】

As soon as I answered a sentence, someone grabbed my cuff.

Yato stood behind me with no emotion in his voice, he asked me: "Is that so?"

What is this like?

When I turned around, he lowered his head, his forehead covered his eyes, "So, like that day, it was an accident?"

He was talking about the time we fell at the dance in Capipa Park.

It's strange, the way he said this was completely different from the way he looked at me just now, less expectant, more like, as if he was asking me for comfort.Didn't even care if I was lying or not.

Doesn't this guy not care?

I still remember his clear eyes at the ball, and his embarrassing moment of forgetting a clean heart.

But no matter how you look at it now, it seems that you care about it to the extreme.

So much so that it cannot be ignored at all.

At that time, was it a deliberate disguise?Once again, I was at a loss because I couldn't see Yato's mood and inner voice.

And this time, annoyance and boredom mixed with tension swept my brain.

【you--】

Just as I was about to speak, Kamijou's voice came into my ears, he was persuaded by Akashi's indiscriminately fabricated rhetoric, and excitedly confirmed again and again, "That means it's all right?"

Akashi smiled.

"That, that..." But Kamijou trembled violently again in an instant, and at the same time, burst into tears, "Accelerator just kissed, kissed me just now...what's going on?"

"Show the truth." Akashi was still smiling, "That's the way it is. I think with one side's personality, the thing I don't want to do is not even knowing how to lie."

Akashi is really good at reading people's hearts.

"Huh?" Hedgehog, your heartbeat seems to exceed 180.

Yeto slowly tightened his grip on my sleeve, he took a deep breath, and uttered the words clearly in the noisy rain, "Qimu, people with super powers really have nothing. Can't."

"Even if it is a fake emotion, it can be deduced into reality."

【…】I pursed my lips.

"Yeah." Yato raised his face slightly, his eyes were half-closed, his eyelids were much thinner than usual, and now he looked at me with a bit of sharpness and determination, "I know."

Yato took two steps back, and I subconsciously wanted to grab him.

【No, I don't have...】

I could have said something at first, but Yato had already pulled out his cell phone, he answered a call, and gave me a sideways glance, "What did you say?"

Then I couldn't speak.

【have a job? 】I asked him.

A strange look flashed across Yato's face, and I saw that he was holding his cell phone upside down in his palm, and his fingertips were a little tight.

"Ah, I'm sorry, it's work." Yato followed my words and nodded, evoking a brighter smile, "I'm busy, so I'll leave this to you. Please, Saiki."

He didn't use the usual method of teleporting through the phone communication, but turned around and rushed into the pouring rain.

How could there be a job at this time?

It's clearly a crying expression, why do you have to force a smile.

hateful.

I drop the umbrella. For the first time in 16 years, I didn't use teleportation, but like this, I ran hard in order to chase someone I wanted to catch.

【Yatou——】

[You stop for me! 】

Yato, as if he couldn't hear him, jumped onto the fence and stepped on the branches without looking back.

The next moment, I appeared above Yato, grabbing him by the neck involuntarily.We fell from mid-air and rolled into a nearby mud hole.

I spread my arms and lay on my back in the mud. Yato was riding on my waist. He couldn't breathe steadily. He looked up at me in surprise for a moment, and then quickly buried his head down.He wanted to get up and walk away, but I grabbed his wrist.

[There is no false relationship between the two of them.I can hear them, it's not something I faked with super powers. 】

I plucked away his wet hair and saw his red eye circles.

"That's all?" His face was slightly cold, "Heart-to-heart, you can just find Akashi, right? Then why did you kiss me?"

There is no deterrent effect in this way, but like a wronged little animal.

【are you angry? 】

[Sorry, I should have asked you before kissing. 】

Yato shook his head, "No, I didn't mean to say that."

I looked at his face, and a lot of information suddenly flashed in my mind, whether it was the smiling Yato, or the lonely Yato, whether it was pestering me as a magic weapon, or taking care of me who was infected by an unknown disease. Well... the many things that have happened to Yato in the past month or so, when I look at them from the third vision, without exception, the center is me.

The clouds open and the moon shines.

【Do you... like me? 】

It was like a veil, which was finally lifted by me.Yato's face went blank for a moment, and I knew I was right.

After a brief silence, Yato lowered his hands, his eyes were bloodshot, and a pale chuckle rose from the corner of his lips.The time around him seemed to have stopped flowing. He choked for a while, and managed to squeeze out a few thin words from his throat, "You said it, yes."

"I do. But that's why..." Yato grabbed the fabric on his chest, and he repeated, "That's why it shouldn't be like this."

"I've restrained myself very much. Next time, don't do this kind of thing again."

Kissing at the prom, naked in the bathroom, even just then—do you have to numb yourself like an idiot and pretend nothing happened?

Moreover, this kind of thing is...

[... Which kind? 】

Yato didn't say anything.

"Wait for me to come back..." He slowly got up from me, stood on his feet unsteadily, and smiled not so brightly, "...we can get along as usual. Say hello to me, dislike me, and be with me Fighting... just pretend that these things didn't happen today, turn back time, and go back to the way we started, okay?"

He couldn't wait for my answer, so he took it on his own, "You acquiesced. Then it's settled. When I come back, everything will return to normal."

Yato tied his hair back with a rubber band, looked up at the sky and walked past me, "Stop this rain, it's been a long time, you should catch a cold again."

[Yato——] I turned over.

Maybe his footsteps were a little nostalgic, but when I shouted out, he refused to stop.

My eyebrows trembled, as he said, with a wave of my hand, the heavy rain stopped instantly, and the sun climbed into the clouds.Yato's figure was first clearly traced by the sunlight after the rain, and then it was so far away that he disappeared.

This time, I didn't follow.

Watching him go, I slam myself back into the puddle again.A small patch of rain fell in the air against my face, but otherwise it was sunny.

Akashi was still waiting for me at that intersection, he stared at the puddles on the ground spreading out, which was very interesting.

I looked at his back and thought of what Yato had said.

——Why not Akashi instead of me.

I don't know... I didn't even think about choosing, subconsciously I chose Yato.

"I asked Yifang and Kamijou to go back first." Akashi probably wanted to ask where Yato was, but looking at the atmosphere, or seeing me covered in dirt, he knew he shouldn't ask.

【Um.sorry to bother you. 】

"Combining the time when the two of them were in Kapipa Park, I can roughly guess the direction of the line and the position of the node. To be more precise, it needs to input data simulation on the computer, and the result will be available within a few days." Akashi It has always been very reliable, "At that time, if you feel better, we can try."

[Well, thank you. 】

I walked back, and suddenly heard Akashi shouting from behind, "Wait."

What?I turned around in a daze.

Akashi gestured towards me from a distance away, "Do people with superpowers also get coerced by others to do something?"

I opened my mouth, and just about to ask him what he meant, Akashi shook his head, "It's nothing. I said, where you usually like to stay more, maybe you can see Yato."

Apart from my home, I have been going to Antarctica more and more recently.

But Antarctica is all about freezing winds and flocks of toddler penguins, and no one here.

In fact, I can't find Yato anywhere.

He told me he would come back, but he didn't tell me how long, when he would come back, or where he would come back from.

Yato was completely gone.

It's as if a shooting star streaked across the sky, and the swallow's tail dissipated, leaving no memory for the world.

One day, two days...

The window specially reserved for Yato remained as it was.

During the day, late at night...

The bedding was spotlessly clean.

There is one less existence in my life, no, it is not so much that it is missing, it is better to say that it seems that there has never been a trace of the other party.

I was called by the teacher tonight because I was distracted in class.

Mob, who was sitting at the table behind me, cared about me carefully, and I thanked him. Then I suddenly remembered his powerful superpowers, and I couldn't help but stop him: [Student Yingshan, have you done anything wrong? 】

The black-haired boy blinked blankly, and after a while, slowly showed a bright and soothing smile.

"Just choose the important parts with your own mind and live it," he said.

Use your own ideas...?Up to now, in the 16 years of my life, which one thing is not my own idea?Which one thing is not the result of my own choice?

Yes, no.

I will never do something I don't want to do.

[Thanks, classmate mob. ] A string in my brain was suddenly touched. I rolled the textbooks into the backpack, changed my shoes in one go, and ran out of the school at a speed that was extremely inconsistent with my normal style.

Breeze brushes hair.

The imprint I left on the window sill reacted—the balance of fate might have tilted slightly in my favor, and I knew that Yato had returned.

The moment I opened the door, I couldn't wait to teleport to my room.

Yato was still wearing his iconic tracksuit, lying on the bed with his face sideways.The hair is smooth and soft covering half of the face, and the ends of the hair are scattered on the white quilt.He suddenly pulled out a hand and waved at me in a strange gesture, "Good morning, Xiao Nan."

I put down my satchel, took a deep breath, and walked over to see him.

He drank some wine, and there were two red lines on his face.Just like the way he used to be begging and lying on my bed after drinking for the first time, he was as shameless as ever.

Yato took his usual role very seriously, as if nothing really happened.

But I know, it happened, there was something missing in me that couldn't be brought back in time or role-playing.Time must move forward.

[It's already dusk. 】

"Don't care so much about it. It's a joke." Yato continued to smile at me sloppily, moaned and squirmed twice, and heyed twice stupidly.

According to the script or as usual, I should be very disgusted and kick him out of my noble and clean bed.

Maybe even send him to Antarctica to sober up.

But as I said, some things have long been different.The smell of alcohol on Yato's body, the bitter taste when he burped, I just feel a kind of beauty that I haven't seen again for a long time.

Bringing hangover soup, I sat next to him and gently pushed him: [Get up and drink. 】

Yetou didn't respond, and it took a long time before he snorted stubbornly, "No, don't eat."

The willful appearance is also the same as before.In fact, Yato never got drunk when he drank, all he drank was beer, he often pretended to be drunk and went crazy, just because my reaction was funny.

And today, presumably Yato thought it was a good time backtest.

I pulled him up from the bed, and Yato had already started yelling "no" or something like that - usually when I pick him up, he likes to make trouble for no reason.

But I just pulled him against the back of the bed with a very patient look on my face.

So he followed suit and opened his second line of defense.The whole person curled up, and pulled out the wine bottle that he appeared in a lot of scenes from his arms, "You don't have other plans, do you?"

[You drink the hangover soup first, and I want to talk to you after drinking it. 】

His pupils shrank for a moment, and then he said a few more words about my ruthlessness, and obediently downed the bowl of soup.

I sat on the edge of the bed, [I have something to tell you about the incident on the rainy night. 】

The face of the "drunkard" who was still sluggish suddenly changed, he was pale, he jumped off my bed, grabbed my arm, trembling, and could barely complete a sentence, "Didn't you say it? Goodbye as if nothing happened."

【Yatou——】

I grabbed his hand with my backhand, Yato struggled, and in desperation, I actually used the original voice.My throat was so sore that I could hardly pronounce it, and now it sounded even more trembling, "Don't go!"

Yato was pulled back by me, and his body wobbled back.

It was too late to adjust, and without even thinking about it, I pressed against the tip of his nose and kissed him solemnly.Yato stared blankly at me.Like venting, countless emotions fell on this kiss, and the oppressive warmth and numbness came from the lips. It was different from the first accident and the second peck. This was a long and deep kiss that brought The crazy beating of the heart.

Sensing Yato's calmness, I let go, and hastily poured out a bunch of words: [Listen, people with super powers never let others do what they don't want to do, and they won't do what they don't want to do. 】

【You see, every act I do is my will. 】

[Don't worry, I'm responsible for myself. 】

Yato didn't move, he asked me in a low voice, "What do you mean?"

His deer-like eyes and expression made me quite helpless, and I didn’t think about how to say those words. Now I feel rash when I say it casually, and I may run out of words when I say it solemnly. I'm really scared of you.I almost confessed to you directly, and you are still asking me what I mean. 】

"What?" Yedou was stunned, and when he saw the seriousness in my eyes, he burst out laughing, "Why didn't you say it earlier."

Immediately, Yato was startled belatedly, "By the way, did you speak just now?"

I was stunned, and immediately raised my poker face, and replied blankly:

[You heard it wrong.I say that all the time. 】

"Really?" Yato suddenly smiled softly.

Then his tears fell uncontrollably.As if a floodgate had been opened, Yato's tears grew more and more, and he was sobbing on the ground out of breath.

I saw him trying desperately to wipe, but he couldn't clean it.

Crying happily.

The author has something to say:

Falling in love is so difficult... so difficult... so difficult...

After two days, I finally wrote my confession

The relationship line will not be advanced for the time being, but it is still the kind of daily interaction~
