"What does it mean?"

He scratched his head and wondered, no matter whether it was Tang poetry, Song poetry or Matsuo and Furukawa's poems, he could not find similar sentences.

"Sure enough, feelings are still too difficult to understand."

The man shook his head and sighed.

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

Karuizawa Megumi stopped.

Whenever Karuizawa Megumi sees this woman named Eura, she can't help but feel disgust and hatred welling up from the bottom of her heart, but she herself knows very well that buried beneath these emotions is a deep Fear and avoidance, just like she chooses to take time off from swimming lessons and closes her eyes every time she takes a shower. She avoids this woman she has not seen for two years, even though the scar on her waist and abdomen has long been There was no more bleeding, but Megumi Karuizawa still wouldn't touch it.

She put this person and the scar she had given him into a cage, sealed it, and sank into the deepest well. But when they saw each other again, the other person did not ferment, rot, or disappear. Karuizawa Megumi looked at the person in front of her. A girl of the same age as her felt a strange sense of disharmony in her heart.

The face that has been flashed back countless times in her memory has not changed much from two years ago. It seems that it has only been enlarged a few points according to the proportion of the facial features. The overly thick makeup makes her look like an apple soaked in preservatives. , glowing with an unnatural red and white color.

"Hey, Karuizawa, we haven't seen each other for two years, right?"

The lips covered with bright lipstick opened and closed, and the words that came out of them made Karuizawa Megumi feel as if she had been hit hard by something oncoming, making her almost unsteady.

But Karuizawa Megumi still protected Ichinose Maki. The screen of her mobile phone hidden in her right hand behind her back was lit up.

"What, is it someone Huimei knows?"

The short-haired man standing next to Emi Emi looked a few years older than her, about twenty years old. He smiled and put his arm around her shoulders:

"How about giving them a discount?"

"They are just my former classmates, the kind with whom we have a very bad relationship."

"Really."

The short-haired man raised his chin at the two of them, pointed to his right white running shoe and said:

"Then there will be no discount. Seikei is one million yen."

"It's just a little muddy, why does it cost so much money, and why are you arguing with a cat?"

Ichinose Maki held the cat and stuck her head out from behind Karuizawa Megumi and shouted.

The cause of the incident was that Hotaru accidentally touched the other party's shoes while running blindly on the mountain road. Although the other party kept shouting about the limited edition brand, in Ichinose Maki's view, an apology plus reasonable compensation was enough. enough.

"What does a little brat know?"

The short-haired man took out a cigarette from his pocket, completely ignored the "No Smoking in Attractions" notice on the side, lit it and held it in his mouth.

"One million yen, as long as the compensation is paid, we brothers will leave on the spot."

Karuizawa Megumi looked at the five or six bad-looking students following him with some fear. On this rugged one-way mountain road, she did not have the confidence to run with Ichinose Maki, who had basically no physical strength left. There are many people at the foot of the mountain.

"Brother Jian, actually I have another way."

Karuizawa Megumi watched Emi Eura clinging to the man's ear like a snake, spitting out the letter and whispered:

"If you can't afford to pay, can't you just ask her to lick it clean for you?"

The other party's words were like a sharp knife that reopened the scabbed wound. Karuizawa Megumi pursed her lips tightly. She looked at the former classmate who bullied her for the first time, even if the other party was using the knife with pure malice. After stabbing a knife into his left abdomen, Karuizawa Megumi was ordered to drop out of school. However, Karuizawa Megumi's life has been ravaged to a state of disarray. From the age of fourteen to now, when he was sixteen, he was branded by the other party as "being raped". The symbol of "bully" remains closely associated with her.

"It's fine."

She comforted Ichinose Maki in a low voice.

In the past, when she was bullied, Karuizawa Megumi would choose to cry to her parents and complain to her teachers, but the final result was not the end of the bullying, so she learned to be silent and accepting. She would sometimes lick girls' shoes. After being splashed with water in the toilet and cleaning up the dead mice in the desk, she went to the nearby woods to cry alone. She hugged a tree and a stone and cried, treating them as one living thing after another. She fantasized about what she was doing. Create the image of a protector for yourself.

Of course, these wooden and stone protectors would not really stand up and walk to protect her. The only thing they could teach Karuizawa Megumi was loneliness and patience. With these two skills, she stumbled Until now.

Until a few days ago, they suddenly came to life and really extended a helping hand to her.

Ichinose Maki's mobile phone had been turned off an hour ago, so Karuizawa Megumi could only operate the mobile phone with his hands behind his back to send the location and recording to the first person in the first row of the address book.

After doing all this, Karuizawa Megumi really raised his head and looked directly at Emi Eura.

She believes that the other party will come, and the other party will definitely come.

Karuizawa Megumi has only known Ryo Kitagawa for a few days, but during their short time together, if anything, Karuizawa Megumi was confident that he could surpass Ichinose Honami.

Then there is only trust in him.

enough.

ps: The actor is the most important CG in the second line, but when I wrote it, I always felt it was a little different from what I had imagined. I kept revising and revising it, which was a bit nerve-wracking_(:з」∠)_. It probably still needs another chapter.

Ichinose Honami's Summer Reappearance: Ichinose Honami's Summer Reappearance: Chapter 14: Actors (End)

It has to be said that although there is a straight hiking trail leading to the top of the mountain, most tourists do not choose to follow the hiking trail up the mountain in a disciplined manner. In fact, there are actually various people stepping on it in the nearby mountains and forests. For many tourists, the winding path seems to bring them closer to nature. Because the scenic area will be closed regularly to clear the forest, there will be no danger of wild beasts. If it weren't for Ichinose Ho Because Bo was wearing a skirt today, maybe the two of them would choose this path.

After climbing along the hiking trail for half an hour, I caught a glimpse of a pavilion for tourists to rest. There was also a large vending cabinet inside. Kitagawa Ryo went up to take a look. They probably had some drinks, snacks, drinking water, etc. The price is also a bit more expensive than outside.

"Take a break?"

Looking at the time on the watch, Kitagawa Ryo led Ichinose Honami to the pavilion and sat down. There were not many tourists today. Maybe it was because the weather was too hot. Most tourists chose to climb to the mountainside and then take the cable car. After reaching the top of the mountain, Kitagawa Ryo and Ichinose were the only two people in the pavilion.

"Um."

His forehead was already covered with a layer of fine beads of sweat. Ichinose Honami was panting slightly and sat aside to rest. He subconsciously took out his cell phone as if to check his sister's location.

"I feel like Fanbo is a little absent-minded today. Are you tired?"

Kitagawa Liang lay on his seat and raised his head to count the patterns on the top of the pavilion. The sculptures seemed to be cuckoo birds. There were one, two, three, four, four in total.

"fine."

Honami Ichinose also put away her phone with some guilt. Although she was a little surprised that Ichinose Maki's position had been parked in a certain place motionless for nearly 20 minutes, it was not easy for her to ask about her sister at this time. Karuizawa Megumi, who was with him, just said apologetically to Kitagawa Ryo:

"Maybe it's too hot."

The sun on the horizon was indeed fierce. She took out a handkerchief from her bag and handed it to Kitagawa Ryo while wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"Fanbo."

Every time he opens his mouth, he can't help but feel a thrill, as if his heart rushes to the clouds for a moment, and then hits his chest again.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

But she still had to pretend to be nonchalant, like an actor who had failed in her performance and was trying to finish her lines.

"I dreamed last night that we were playing together when we were kids."

Ichinose Honami looked at the smile on the lips of the young man sitting opposite her. She resisted the topic with some inexplicable annoyance.

She is a girl who is more enthusiastic about the future than the past. When Kitagawa Ryo was seventeen, she still missed her seven-year-old days, but when she was ten, she wished she could suddenly turn twenty. This is a strange gap. The feeling made her feel a strange hatred well up from the bottom of her heart.

Almost every moment of Kitagawa Ryo's childhood was filled with the shadow of Ichinose Honami, but in Ichinose Honami's childhood, besides Kitagawa Ryo, there was also a sister, a mother, and someone whose faces were so blurred that they no longer recognized each other. Father, Honami Ichinose often dreamed of a faceless monster when he was a child, and his mother was followed by the monster.

It wasn't until later that she figured out that the monster was actually her father, because she had never seen this man since she could remember, let alone remember what kind of face he had.

Fortunately for her, she never had such a dream after Ichinose Honami was twelve years old, because she could finally drive this non-existent man out of her life. From reality to dream, she She would never mention the word father again, which made her feel more relaxed than ever.

"Well, what did you dream about?"

She asked another unnecessary question completely out of context. If she were a normal Ichinose Honami, she would definitely notice it, but at this time, she was already in a state of confusion, but she just fell into some of her own negative emotions and tried her best to Suppress those turbulent things back into his body, and then transform back into the original Ichinose Honami.

"I just dreamed about the soda-flavored popsicles we used to eat for 60 yen."

Kitagawa Ryo didn't seem to notice the strange behavior of Ichinose Honami, still describing to him the things that could no longer be bought as if he was immersed in memories.

"Oh, that one is really delicious. I remember there is still a chance to win a prize, right?"

When Ichinose Honami raised her head again, she returned to her usual gentle and approachable nature. It was a matter of making up her mind in the first place. Now that she had come this far, she had no intention of leaving any way out for herself.

But when she came into contact with Kitagawa Ryo's dark eyes, she still felt a little cruel. She originally focused on other people's feelings more than her own character. If she was allowed to become an actress, the audience in the audience had not yet expressed their opinions. Sehonami himself would probably feel embarrassed for them.

"Well, here's another one."

Kitagawa Ryo just sighed softly:

"It's a pity that you can't buy it now. Maybe children in two years' time won't even know that this kind of popsicle exists."

"Can't it be enough for those who have eaten it to remember it?"

Honami Ichinose also followed his example, holding his head and sighing:

"But it's really cheap. If you win the lottery, wouldn't it be equivalent to thirty yen per stick?"

"When I was little, I didn't know how to calculate this. Every time I won a lottery, I just felt that I had picked up 60 yen in vain. Sometimes I was reluctant to exchange it for new popsicles."

Honami Ichinose burst out laughing at Kitagawa Ryo's serious tone:

"Wouldn't the leftover sticks feel dirty?"

"No no no."

Kitagawa Liang shook his hand and vetoed:

"It needs to be washed and put in your pocket for storage. Now that I think about it, I will show it off in front of other students. If it gets soiled or snatched away by someone, I will sue the teacher and get it back."

"You boys are really exaggerating."

Honami Ichinose looked at his phone and asked with some confusion:

"Did Maki send you a message? I couldn't contact her an hour ago."

Kitagawa Ryo took out his mobile phone after hearing this. Because he planned to spend time with Ichinose Honami today, his mobile phone was always on silent mode.

He opened his phone, and the first thing that caught his eye was the location and recording from Megumi Karuizawa.

The sending time is——

Three minutes ago.

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

In fact, Megumi Karuizawa is definitely a beautiful girl who is much beyond the standard line, but sometimes her appearance may not necessarily be a good thing for girls, just like now.

According to Emi Eura, the other party is just a weakling who can't argue or resist when others ravage her. Whether he is dragged into the toilet by girls and beaten with water, or forced to pick up an overturned bento with his mouth and Whether it was eating or being pulled down her skirt in public, Karuizawa Megumi would endure it obediently.

If it hadn't been for the knife he stabbed into the opponent's abdomen, he might have been able to play with this toy for two more years.

Emi Eura picked her nails and thought a little regretfully that she and Karuizawa Megumi were the same type of girls, but compared to Karuizawa Megumi, she was more accustomed to interpersonal communication, so that was the reason why she had so many problems when she first entered junior high school. Over time, he became the leader of the girls' group, and naturally isolated Karuizawa Megumi and bullied her.

After all, why was he so unhappy with her in the first place?

Emi Eura looked at Megumi Karuizawa who pursed her lips sinisterly. Her blue pupils looked at her without fear, and even stared back fiercely.

Tsk.

It was only then that Emi Eura was sure that the reason why she started bullying Karuizawa Megumi was actually the simplest jealousy and malice.

She just wanted to see this annoying face trampled under her feet.

"Didn't you hear what Brother Jian said?"

Emi Eura continued to urge her, and she had even made plans. As long as the other party gave in, she would definitely step her back into the ground without hesitation.

"Or do you want to be beaten by me here again...?"

Brother Jian on the side stopped Emi Emi's intimidating behavior. He smiled and said to the two of them:

"Actually, it's not impossible to discuss. I don't want to lose money and I don't want to lick my shoes. If we go down the mountain in a while, how about having a drink with my brothers?"

There were roars of laughter from the group of delinquents behind, and Emi Eura's face was a bit ugly, but knowing that she couldn't offend Brother Ken, she could only continue to lock onto Karuizawa Megumi's movements like a poisonous snake.

"My boyfriend will be here soon. He just went to buy water."

Karuizawa Megumi took a step back, as if there was really a person standing in front of her.

"Boyfriend? Then we really need to run."

Emi Emi seemed to have found a sense of presence, stood up and laughed at Brother Jian beside her:
