[Projectile] You smile at the hope called despair

"Hinata-kun... are you Hinata-kun?"

By the time Qihai realized that his words and deeds were abrupt, these words had already blurted out.

Sure enough, the other party stood there expressionlessly: "Who is that?"

That's right... Sure enough, it's just a resemblance...

Qihai suddenly felt a little disappointed, but also a little rejoiced——

Although I really want to meet Hinata-kun, but he has already transferred schools.

Moreover, it is impossible to become like this - in the behavior, I can't feel the warmth of being a "human".

Then there are other students in the preparatory course... Wait, is there such a person in the preparatory course?

Moreover, you don't have class and hang out here in the afternoon?

Realizing this, Qihai suddenly became curious: "So... what are you doing here?"

"..."

"It's you who has been hiding here this afternoon."

"..."

"It's you who has been staring at our class for the past few days."

"..."

"It's been here all the time...why don't you come together?"

"..."

"...Are you embarrassed?" When thinking of this, Qihai smiled and reached out to him, "Don't worry, everyone has a first time...Although many people have their own personalities, I believe that as long as you Communicate well and get to know each other…”

The man didn't seem to notice Qihai's outstretched hand, but instead took a step back.

...Are you really afraid of strangers...or arrogance?Qihai thought of that proud freshman of the 78th class.

Although hurt by what he said at the time, Qihai was very glad that she did not back down.

With her classmates and her friends around, she had to find a way to help, and she couldn't escape.

Besides, if it is a difficult boss, you have to find a way to solve it.If you can't do it alone, a group of people will find a way——

This is also the persistence and enthusiasm as a game player.

If there is no patience and interest, there is no way to understand the designer's mind.

The process of clearing a game, even if it is a nonsensical game, is very similar to the process of getting to know others——

Thinking of this, Qihai leaned over.The man dodged away quickly, so fast, it was like a cat whose tail was stepped on.

The scene fell into an embarrassment - if it hadn't been for the conversation before, the other party seemed to be dumb.

Seems pretty bad... Nanami found that there was nothing she could do.

But... No matter who you are, there are things you are interested in... If you don't communicate with each other, there is no way to understand each other...

Since he has been here for the past few days, it means that there is still something of interest... right, about this tree house?

Thinking of this, Qihai regained her confidence: "I think it is very important to express your thoughts frankly... If you are interested, come and take a look? The more people there are, the more fun. Besides, I have always thought this way , if you don’t do anything, nothing will change.”

The man still had a cold face, without any change in expression.

"Why...do you want to do such...inefficient and boring things collectively?"

"Boring... thing?"

"There are better and faster ways to achieve the goal...Obviously without this talent...Why do such time-consuming and meaningless things?"

"...Because it's fun." Recalling the scene at that time, Nanami smiled, "It's the best and most interesting thing to spend happy time with everyone and create irreplaceable memories. And, if everything Isn’t it too monotonous and boring to pursue a goal? Just like a game, if you just pass the level and have no other meaning, then it’s not fun.”

"Boring...the 'teachers' said these things, logically speaking, make no sense."

"Maybe it is..." Qihai sighed, "If it was me before, maybe I would agree with you... because the school also requires this. But now, I think, the 'meaning' itself is probably more than that. Bar……"

The man raised his eyebrows slightly.

"So, do you want to understand together?" Qihai returned to her smiling face, "I think you've been looking here because you want to find an answer, right?"

The man tilted his head and thought for a while: "But...the 'teachers' told me that these things are unnecessary."

'teachers'?What is that... Besides, why do you always feel that this way of speaking... is a bit like... a child?

Nanami looked at his appearance in surprise.

The image and feel... is obviously wrong.

Could it be that there is something wrong with his head and he is recovering, so it looks like he has been ill for a long time?

And the hair is still like this, I feel quite embarrassed... Is it because I can't take care of myself, and there is usually no one to take care of me?

While thinking this way, the man's stomach growled, and the sound seemed very abrupt in the silent woodland.

Suddenly, I felt that this person was kind of cute, especially with so many big contrasts piled up together - Qihai smiled.

"...Is it so funny?" The man's voice was a little chilly.

Although the eyes look a little scary with the appearance——

Qihai still smiled.

"I'm sorry, because... I can't help it. Since I'm hungry, let's eat quickly..." Qihai quickly opened the rabbit backpack that she carried with her, "Although I only have this...but it's still delicious of."

It was two red bean mochi left over from lunch.

The man said coldly: "I also have the talent to make dim sum."

"Yes, yes... I believe... But there is no way to make snacks now, let's eat first... After you finish eating, go home quickly."

This "big kid" is also very competitive - thinking of the neighbor who played games with him when he was young, Nanami couldn't help laughing again.

"...Your eyesight is very problematic."

"Hey?"

Qihai was still laughing, but was suddenly grabbed by the other party's neck, and then pressed heavily against the tree.

"Laughing all the time...you're despising people."

The opponent's red eyes shone with a menacing light, and they looked very strange in the gradually darkening sky.

And the strength in his hand was really heavy...Qihai coughed repeatedly after being pinched.

Although it looks like a child...but it's really, really scary...people...

"... I said it before, is it so funny... Do you know who I am, and do you dare to talk casually like this?"

"...you have been...watching here...the one who talked to you first...well," Qihai tried her best to look directly at the other person even though she was having difficulty breathing, "and...you don't say...how do I know...you are who..."

At this time, the opponent's hand suddenly loosened, and Qi Hai fell to the ground suddenly.

"Cough cough..."

The other party looked at her very strangely: "Even if you are treated like this...why don't you run away? You are not my opponent."

"Because, I like to get to know others, chat and play games together... Isn't it too monotonous to just be an opponent?"

"...Aren't you afraid?"

"Of course I'm afraid. But it's useless to be afraid... Besides, if you wanted to hurt people before, you would have done it long ago. There is no need to wait until now... So, I believe in you. I believe in you and don't want to hurt people."

"Stupid... There is no point in understanding things like people. The 'teachers' said that everyone has a predetermined destiny and is destined to do things. No matter what happens, they cannot be changed."

It's so confusing again...and it's always 'teachers', 'teachers'...

"I don't know what the 'teachers' have taught you...but I think that if you don't find the answers yourself, you may really miss something...just like...the me before. Now I Believe me, everyone I meet is meaningful, they all put forward their own valuable suggestions, let me discover, new fun... So, I will not give up to understand..."

Feeling sad about the opponent's blind obedience, Nanami smiled at him again:

"I'm Nanami Chiaki, a super high school level game player. My previous interest was playing games, but now I'm not limited to this one... Please give me your advice. What about you, what should I call you?"

The man fell silent suddenly.

"...Is there any inconvenience?"

"... Number One. My name is Number One."

Just kidding, this is clearly a code name, how could there be such a name.

"It's called this... It always feels a bit like a work number." Qi Hai was a little dumbfounded, "...Really?"

The other party just looked at it coldly, noncommittal.

"Then, let's call you 'Yi-kun'... Uh, the sound sounds like 'Chuang-kun'..." Thinking of this, Qihai's voice suddenly dropped, her cheeks flushed.

"That person looks a lot like me?" the other party said coldly.

Hey?

"He was the name you called me from the beginning."

Strange words, flat tone, accompanied by expressionless and undulating face, I don't know what he is thinking... Qihai had no choice but to answer along:

"Yeah. Where does Yi-kun live? It's late now, and if you don't go home, someone will worry."

Yijun, as always, was silent again.

Qihai thought, if he was recovering from encephalopathy, he would be afraid if he had no one to accompany him back home, right?

"Then, shall I go out with you? It's dark now... I feel a little scared too!" Qihai smiled and picked up the mochi that had just landed, "There are still snacks, you can eat on the way! Two people walk together Don't be afraid anymore!"

It's a pity that Yijun is still silent.

This way...isn't it okay?Could it be... What are your difficulties?

Qihai looked at him worriedly, trying to see something from that expressionless face.

Unfortunately, nothing can be seen.

"That place...even if you don't go back for a while, there is no problem."

The man suddenly opened his mouth, and his voice remained the same without any ups and downs.

"...I will, make snacks."

A gentleman?

Seeing that he had no intention of going back, and said these words out of nowhere, Qihai invited him to the tree house.

Thus, "LUCKY" ushered in its first guest.
