"There will be a performance of Macbeth in five minutes. Have you seen this one?"

"I have read Shakespeare's original works, but this is really my first time for a drama."

The two found the best viewing seat and chatted for the last five minutes before the show started:

"Although 'Macbeth' is also one of Shakespeare's "four great tragedies," most people seem to have only heard of "Hamlet."

"There are also people who regard 'Romeo and Juliet' as one of the four great tragedies."

Shiina Hiyori covered her mouth and chuckled:

"Which of the four tragedies does Ryo like best?"

"Hamlet?"

"why?"

"Perhaps the final scene of the heroine Ophelia left a deep impression on me for the first time. She died in the river of flowers. It was really amazing."

"But this kind of love tragedy is..."

Shiina Hiyori wanted to say something more, but the lights above her head dimmed, the curtain on the stage opened, and the drama performance was about to begin.

Kitagawa Ryo relaxed his body and curled up into the large and comfortable seat. Just when he was about to take back his right hand that was on the armrest, he was unexpectedly held tightly by the other hand.

In the darkness, Kitagawa Ryo couldn't see Shiina Hiyori's expression clearly, but he finally didn't break away, but felt the other's fingertips pry open his closed fist and penetrate into his palm.

Perhaps Kitagawa Ryo's words just now caused some stimulation to Shiina Hiyori. She used the heat of her palms to send a message to Kitagawa Ryo, like two ants meeting each other and reaching out each other's tentacles. She was waiting. Kitagawa Ryo's response.

Shiina Hiyori is a girl who looks light and airy, but once she gets serious, she is surprisingly stubborn. Kitagawa Ryo scratched her palm.

This action made Hiyori Shiina's nerves relax. She seemed to be relieved, but she never let go of the hand until the end of the play.

The actors on the stage bowed to the only two people in the audience. Kitagawa Ryo and Shiina Hiyori responded with warm applause. Only then did they realize how long they had been holding hands, so that they were in each other's palms. The other person's temperature still remained, and there was a strange temperature difference when it struck his other palm.

"Shiina-san is actually not alone this time."

It seems that this troupe is quite familiar with Shiina Hiyori, but thinking about what the girl said before about reserving the theater, it can also explain why the elderly man who calls himself the troupe leader kindly walked down the stage to talk to Shiina Hiyori.

"Hello, I am Kitagawa Ryo from Class C of the first year. Hiyori has been entrusted to you to take care of me during this period. Your performance is very superb, especially the scene where Lady Macbeth comforts Macbeth, which is really amazing."

Kitagawa Ryo took the initiative to introduce himself, with impeccable etiquette.

"You are a rare polite child. At first, I thought he was a boy who reluctantly came to watch the drama to accompany Hiyori. I didn't expect that not only could he endure it to the end, but he also listened to your words and knew a lot about dramas, right? "

"I just read the complete works of Shakespeare. Rather, after watching your group's performance, I can realize the difference between scripts and dramas. It is really a wonderful art to interpret those lifelike words in reality."

"It seems that there are children who have the same interests as Shiina-san."

He was a little happy to be praised by Kitagawa Ryo. The old man also stroked his white beard and cast a joking look at Hiyori Shiina:

"And the relationship seems to be very good, after all, they held hands the whole scene."

At this time, I realized that my actions were being watched by the actors on the stage. Shiina Hiyori was also a little shy, hiding behind Ryo Kitagawa and only sticking out a small head.

The old man was a little surprised by Shiina Hiyori's appearance. After all, in the past few days, this girl who always came here alone always looked lonely, sitting there all day long, even until the theater closed. , he took the initiative to remind the other party that Shiina Hiyori would leave. Originally, he thought that Shiina Hiyori was isolated, but looking at the current situation, Shiina Hiyori at that time might just be in a state of longing and loneliness. .

Thinking of this, the troupe leader also said with great interest:

"There are only two of us, Shiina-san and Kitagawa-san, today, but if we put on another drama, we won't have enough time."

"I think both of you are kids who are interested in drama. If you two are willing, why don't you try to act in a short segment yourself?"

Shiina Hiyori seemed to be quite interested in this proposal, with an eager expression on her face. Kitagawa Ryo couldn't help but agree, so he nodded and agreed:

"Which one does Hiyori want to act in?"

"Hamlet!"

Shiina Hiyori smiled slyly at Kitagawa, her eyes bent into the shape of a crescent moon:

"But you want me to magically change the script."

----------------------------------------

Kitagawa Ryo put on his performance clothes in front of the standing mirror backstage. His white gloves gave people the impression of a noble man. The black piping embroidered with elegant patterns extended along his sleeves to his upper body. He was dressed straight and neatly. Wearing the costume of a medieval prince, even the actors in the troupe nearby sighed, as if Hamlet, the real Prince of Denmark, had appeared here.

The clip selected by Hiyori Shiina is the "Death of Ophelia" mentioned by Ryo Kitagawa before. Ophelia is Hamlet's fiancée. She deeply loves Hamlet and has no choice between her father and her lover, and finally commits suicide. Drowning in a river covered with flowers.

This play was originally Ophelia's one-woman show and the final scene, but Hiyori Shiina unceremoniously altered Shakespeare's original work.

Beichuan Liang picked up the curtain and looked at the stage. In the background, flowers were already covering the ground.

Shiina Hiyori was standing at the other end of the stage.

The girl is wearing a pure white dress. The skirt is cut into countless folds, and the gauze is covered with a layer of mist.

The uneven lace on the cuffs showed a feminine figure, and the gemstone decorations spiraling down from the shoulders shone brightly. Shiina Hiyori closed her eyes and put her arms on her chest, making her look like a princess in the clouds, but also like a princess in the clouds. The sleeping beauty, with silver hair reaching her waist, gives an elegant and gorgeous impression.

"And will he not come again? [Will he come again?]"

The narration begins.

Music starts.

"And will he not come again? [Will he come again?]"

"No, no he is dead. [No, he is dead.]"

"Go to the death-bed he never will come again. [Go to the death-bed he never will come again.]"

In the background of sad and helpless sounds, the girl walked step by step to the flower burial place and lay down in the sea of ​​flowers.

"I'm back. (I'm back)"

Kitagawa Ryo walked onto the stage and came to her according to the script Hiyori Shiina gave him.

He knelt on one knee beside Hiyori Shiina and held up the girl's right hand.

However, Shiina Hiyori did not wake up and recite the words as in the script. Kitagawa Ryo glanced at the girl's cheeks strangely. Her eyelashes, as long as black butterflies, were trembling, and her cheeks were blushing like the sunset all the way to her ears.

Kitagawa Ryo had no choice but to bite the bullet and act out.

He pressed his lips to the girl's right hand, which was wearing a white lace glove. Kitagawa kissed her softly, as if there was a furry barrier between her and the girl's skin.

"FOREVER WE ARE ONE (We will never be separated)."

Kitagawa Ryo whispered.

The sound of flash photography was heard from the audience.

Megumi Karuizawa's Autumn Remembrance: Chapter 37: I Want to Know Your Past

Picture: "Karuizawa Megumi", location: "Images/1657293671-100312294-109017188.jpg"

"Boss, do you want to go swimming with us?"

Daichi Ishizaki, who lives in the same room, once again invited Kitagawa Ryo. Two days have passed since the special exam on the uninhabited island. The first-year students who had recovered their strength were still waiting tremblingly for the second exam that the school might arrange. , although the class teacher of Class A also said "Please enjoy your summer vacation" at the end of the special examination on the uninhabited island, but the entire first grade who foolishly believed in such words last time was thrown into the trap on the first day of summer vacation. An uninhabited island.

This "vacation" lasted for two weeks in total. The special test on the uninhabited island took up one week, and the next week was spent entirely on the cruise ship. Therefore, many people speculated that the location of the second test was on the cruise ship. However, after two days of nervous tension, the school never sent out any relevant information about the exam. The ship gradually became as peaceful and peaceful as it should be during the summer vacation. The students who put aside their worries finally began to enjoy this luxury cruise ship. facilities on.

"This should be the end of the exam."

"The exam on the uninhabited island takes up one week, and it is reasonable for the students to relax in the remaining week."

With this idea in mind, the first-year students also enjoyed singing their youth on this cruise ship. I even heard that there were several couples who came and went in pairs.

"Boss, are you still staying in the dormitory and playing games?"

Ishizaki Daichi had already changed into his swimming trunks. Since there was a swimming pool on the cruise ship, he often saw men and women wearing swimsuits walking in the corridor these days.

"Well, don't worry about me. Just have fun."

Kitagawa Ryo waved the handle in his hand and turned his attention back to the electronic screen. He brought it from school, but because he had been staying on an uninhabited island before, he didn't have time to play with it until these two days.

Albert Yamada and Daichi Ishizaki, who lived in the same room as him, both went out for swimming. Ryūen Sho didn't know where he went to detect intelligence. Compared with most students who had already relaxed, he always thought that there were still many people left here. In less than a week, the school will definitely conduct another exam.

"came back?"

Controlling the character on the screen, Kitagawa Ryo heard the sound of the door opening and thought it was Ryuen Sho, so he asked casually.

"Hmm? It's me."

But the person who entered the room after pushing the door open was not the Ryuuen Sho that Kitagawa Ryo had expected, but a completely unexpected candidate.

"Oh, it's Hui..."

"————?"

Kitagawa Ryo raised his head suddenly, not even noticing that his character was instantly killed by a combo of moves from the BOSS. He pulled off his earphones and looked at Karuizawa Megumi standing at the door of the room in disbelief.

"Why are Hui here?"

Getting off the bed and putting on his slippers, Kitagawa Ryo walked over to Karuizawa Megumi, twisting his sore neck:

"Because I haven't seen Ryo on the boat for two days."

Wearing a sleeveless white dress, Karuizawa Megumi walked into the room with her sandals and closed the door.

"Have you been playing games alone in your room these days?"

Seeing the large display screen and handle placed on the small table on the bed, Karuizawa Megumi opened her mouth slightly in disbelief.

After all, this is a luxury cruise vacation that you may not experience once in a lifetime. There are actually people squatting in the room playing games without any interest. No matter how you think about it, it feels like a waste of resources.

"No way, I always go to the theater in the evening to perform... ahem, watch plays."

Kitagawa Ryo quickly vetoed Karuizawa Megumi's words in an effort to prove that he had no problem with social interaction.

"It's actually a theater."

Karuizawa Megumi sat on Kitagawa Ryo's bed and sighed and complained:

"No wonder I can't find you in swimming pools or high-end spas in the past two days. Speaking of which, not many people will go to the theater."

The girl's eyes became sharp:

"I remember that only Shiina-san from your class liked to go there."

"Of course not. Ayanokouji from your class also goes there often. Last time, we watched "Icarus" with your Class D teacher, Chabashira-sensei?"

"Eh? What is Icarus, the heroine of "Heavenly Things"?"

She seemed to have touched on Karuizawa Megumi's knowledge blind spot, and she asked in confusion.

"It's a story in Greek mythology. Together with his father, he made wings from bird feathers and wax, and tried to fly out of the prison in search of freedom. However, he disobeyed his father's advice and got too close to the sun. In the end, the wings failed. The wax between them melted, and a figure fell from the sky to the bottom of the sea and died."

"Oh... I didn't expect Ayanokouji to watch a drama with this kind of plot."

Karuizawa Megumi nodded as if she understood. She had taken off one of her sandals at some point, and her two straight and slender calves, which were usually wrapped in stockings, were now exposed. Swinging from side to side, the other sandal was hanging on the foot and bumping against the ground.

"Is the play good?"

"It depends on personal interests, but Hui doesn't seem like someone who would be interested in this."

Kitagawa Ryo expressed his views tactfully.

"Ryo, are you saying that I don't know enough about art and don't have the same hobbies as you, so you don't want to be with me?"

"Why are you talking so fast?"

Kitagawa Ryo covered his forehead and looked at the angry girl in front of him. When he looked at the white skirt on her body, he always felt like he had seen her before.

"How's it going? It looks good."

Seeing Kitagawa Ryo looking at her intently, Karuizawa Megumi also smiled and lifted the hem of her skirt. If it weren't for sitting on the bed and taking off her shoes, she would have to stand up and spin around to be satisfied.

"It's quite beautiful."

A very cool and summery outfit. Compared to swimsuits, Kitagawa Ryo actually prefers this kind of casual clothes, which has a more friendly everyday feel.

"But then again, apart from going to the theater and playing games in the room, hasn't Ryo ever been to the swimming pool?"

"Super big and lively."

Karuizawa Megumi opened her arms as if she wanted to show it with action, but she forgot that it is best not to make such large arm-raising movements in this kind of sleeveless dress, otherwise it will be easy to show through...

But seeing that it was indeed something else, Kitagawa Ryo asked subconsciously:

"Do you go to the swimming pool often?"
