This was the first time that Su Yu had brought someone near the shop.
Standing at the entrance of the alley,
The girl made a "please" gesture to him.
She said, "Do you want to come in and have a seat? After all, not everyone can find my shop."
Kazuo Saiki nodded and followed Su Yu into the alley.
In the depths of the dim alley,
There was a slightly shabby small wooden door quietly standing there. The sign on the door was written in English cursive,
But it was already blurred.
The alley was a little cold,
But the expression on Su Yu's face gradually brightened, as if she had returned to a place that made people feel at ease,
She reached out and pushed the door open, shouting inside, "Kyōko, I'm back,
There are guests today. "
[So you're not the only one in the shop.]
Kazuo Saiki looked around slightly, and followed behind her,
They walked into the shop.
The girl who poked her head out was stunned for a moment,
Then she smiled at the two of them, "Welcome back,
Su Yu, and this is? "
Almost at the moment when the girl poked her head out,
Kazuo Saiki was stunned on the spot.
[It's really rare. Su Yu actually brought someone to the shop as a guest,
Could it be that she made a friend,
It's really great... Hey,
Boy...?]
Just as he was about to answer her question telepathically as usual,
Saiki suddenly hesitated,
Finally, he opened his mouth and said, "Qi Mu Nan Xiong."
If he spoke telepathically, Su Yu wouldn't be able to hear him. He didn't want to cause such a situation.
She didn't know that the person in front of her was a psychic who could read minds. Kyōko nodded and said, "Nice to meet you, Jun Saiki. I'm Kyoko Sasakawa. I'm currently staying with Su Yu."
After that, she winked at Su Yu and said, "It's rare to have a guest, I'll go make some tea first."
[But this is the first time I've seen Su Yu bring someone to the shop in a long time. Sure enough, this Jun Saiki is special. Should I go out later and let the two of them get along well...]
Listening to Kyōko's cheerful thoughts, Kazuo Saiki sat on the sofa with a calm face.
Ever since he entered the shop, the thoughts of the people within a 200-meter radius suddenly disappeared in his mind. At this moment, he seemed to be in a quiet universe, so Kyōko's thoughts of secretly creating an opportunity for the two of them rang particularly clearly in his ears...
[Then please come out later, Kugawa-san......]
[So, this is the embodiment of the Dimension Wall? This shop is a small world that is completely different from the outside world.]
He couldn't help but look around a little enviously.
"I don't usually receive guests, Jun Saiki, don't mind." Su Yu tilted her head and smiled at him while holding her chin with one hand.
"Kugawa-san is different from you," he explained briefly.
"Ah, Kyōko." Su Yu looked in the direction of the kitchen. "I tricked Kyōko from another world. She's a cute girl, right?"
[Is it okay to say that?]
Before he replied, Su Yu continued, "The more I get along with her, the more I feel that Kyōko is really a good child. She has been working hard and has infinite love for the sun every day. Compared to me, she's more like a real person."
Hearing this, Kazuo Saiki turned to look at her, but he only saw a faint smile on the girl's face.
"Such a sunny and cheerful girl should have a gentle life." She put one hand on the back of the sofa and chuckled again. Her eyelashes fluttered, and the emotions in her eyes couldn't be seen clearly. "There will be many friends who like her smile, and there will be family members who love her. Even if she occasionally encounters difficulties, in the end, she will definitely get through it safely."
The girl's whispered description seemed to be able to show such a lively life.
"I want to give everything back to her," Su Yu said in a low voice, but her tone became serious. "When I think about the reason why she lost everything is because of the items I created, I feel very sad. If I don't do something, I won't be able to calm down."
"There's a voice in my heart that keeps saying that only by doing this will it be the right thing to do." She gradually clenched her hands on the sofa. "I will never be an absolute righteous person. In this case, I will insist on doing what I think is right. That is the path I will take."
"In order to give everything back to Kyōko, for more children who have the same experience as Kyōko, I will not stop moving forward."
She would not stay for anyone.
This answer had already faintly surfaced before. At this time, the girl emphasized it again, but it was just to spread everything out.
After a long silence, Saiki nodded and said, "Yes, I know."
He knew that she had her persistence, but was he really going to let go like this? Perhaps in the future, he would never meet a second Su Yu. Was it really the best choice to end everything like this?
But how could he be willing to not be with someone he liked? Especially when it was his first time falling in love.
He had a faint feeling that even if it was only for a few days, it would be fine.
The two fell into silence. Perhaps the faint conversation outside disappeared. Kyōko came out with a few cups of tea and desserts. "I just tried to bake some cookies this afternoon. If you don't mind, please try it."
Su Yu instantly returned to her usual playful appearance. She stood up to help Kyōko set up the things and said, "Kyōko's cooking is getting better and better. Jun Saiki, you must try it."
"Well, thank you." Saiki briefly thanked her and reached out to pick up the teacup.
— —
By the time the two walked out of the shop, the sun had already set.
The exit of the alley seemed to have become extraordinarily long. The two walked slowly at the same pace. Su Yu suddenly felt uncomfortable with the silence.
"Usually, there are no customers coming here. Jun Saiki, I hope you don't mind." She said casually as usual and turned to look at the boy beside her.
"I don't hate it," Saiki replied faintly. "Next time, try harder."
Will there be a next time?
Su Yu was silent awkwardly. She actually didn't resist the boy's approach. In fact, Kazuo Saiki was a very special person in the thousands of worlds to her. She could see something similar to herself in him, which made her feel very close to the boy.
In a sense, he was omnipotent. He was also used to hiding in the crowd as a bystander.
She sighed almost inaudibly and retracted her gaze.
It was precisely because of this that she couldn't hurt him like this. Knowing that she couldn't stop, she still wanted to take away his sincere feelings. This kind of behavior was completely overboard.
"Qi Mukun …" She called the young man's name and couldn't help but stop in her tracks. "Our alliance … should end here."
Hearing this, the young man stopped and looked back at her quietly.
"I can take care of the following matters by myself. There's no need for Jun Saiki anymore." Su Yu spoke more and more fluently. Her tone was still so light, as if she had never been troubled by this before. "More contact is not good for me or for you, so let's end it here."
"In the future, just treat me as an ordinary classmate from next door, okay?"
She raised her head and showed a rare obedient smile. The girl's hands were behind her back. At this moment, she was looking at him sideways. The light from outside the alley shone in, and the warm orange light soaked her upper body. At this moment, her obsidian-like eyes were staring at him without blinking, as if she was using all her strength to tell him:
I don't care.
Saiki stood in the same place, speechless. He met the girl's indifferent eyes. She was clearly saying that they were no longer friends, but he inexplicably felt that her gaze was very gentle. It was different from before. That gaze was like a feather brushing against the tip of his heart, causing him to tremble slightly.
"I don't care."
The boy opened his mouth.
He took a step forward, closing the distance between the two of them. He said in a low voice, "It's fine if it's only a few days."
If he didn't use all his strength to hold on when he could have it, then he would be left with endless regret. On the contrary, even if he had it and then lost it, he would not regret taking this step.
He stretched his hand forward in front of the girl, as if making a silent invitation. Su Yu subconsciously held her breath. She looked down at the hand in front of her.
The boy's hand was white and slender, and the shape of his bones was very beautiful. At this moment, his hand was stretched out in front of her, as if he was ready to accept everything that the future could bring.
Sweetness, warmth, happiness, or... loss.
He stood in front of her with a calm expression. His cheeks were illuminated by the warm light from outside the alley, appearing hazy and gentle.
Su Yu saw her hand reach forward uncontrollably, and gently placed it on the hand. After a while, she heard her own voice say, "Do as you wish..."
Since he was willing to accept all the results, then she had no reason to reject him.
As soon as her voice fell, she felt that the young man's hand suddenly tightened and pulled her into his arms. Qi Mu Nanxiong's breath suddenly wrapped around her. He lowered his head and pressed it against her cheek, seeming to sigh softly.
No matter what, cherish the time you have now. If this relationship must have a time limit, then use all your strength before it burns out.
