"I just had a dream."

Karuizawa Megumi listened to Kitagawa Ryo narrate his dream. In that world, he and Karuizawa Megumi basically had no intersection. Although he occasionally saw news about campus bullying on TV, he really didn't know Ryo Karuizawa. Megumi Izawa.

"Where is Ichinose-san?"

Karuizawa Megumi pursed his lips, as if he was not satisfied with this dream.

"...I just know the name, a neighbor who moved here not long ago."

Kitagawa Ryo herself was a little surprised. In the dream, Honami Ichinose had no childhood sweetheart named Kitagawa Ryo. She chose to steal hairpins as a gift for her sister on her thirteenth birthday, and was dragged away by her mother. When I got to the store, I went to the lower seat of Zhongtu to confess my sins.

This bad development almost made Kitagawa Ryo feel uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart. It was an out-and-out nightmare.

"It's just a weird dream with no logic, nothing to worry about."

Karuizawa Megumi softly coaxed Kitagawa Ryo, who looked a little ugly:

"The reality is that everyone in the Ichinose family got a card because of you, right?"

"Um."

Kitagawa Ryo responded in a dull voice. He suddenly knew what to write in this birthday card. He picked up the pen and started writing directly on the simple greeting card instead of on the draft paper:

"On Fanbo's sixteenth birthday, what I want to say to Fanbo is:

Time may dilute the memories until they are blurry, but it also proves that the days we spent together were not false. As the body gradually grows, and the mind becomes stronger together with the body, perhaps Fanbo will also hate himself in the future. , but I hope Fanbo can know that who we are now is not the end, and we will not end with who we are now.

I know Fanbo doesn't like memories, and Fanbo always longs for the future, but I still hope you can remember the feelings of the past:

Pay attention to someone's mood, like someone's mood.

Tender mood, warm mood, happy mood.

Sad mood, regretful mood, painful mood.

I don't think these things have any meaning because they make up who you are.

Even if it is trivial, it doesn't matter. I want these emotions to stay in your heart. I hope these emotions can become your will and your weapon.

However, I still hope that you can become a more real person and that you can be happy like other ordinary girls. Fanbo is a person with outstanding talents, but sometimes I also think that it doesn't matter even if Fanbo is just an ordinary person, as long as you can smile. It doesn't matter if you cry or get angry. It doesn't matter if you lose your temper, be willful, and bother me.

I hope you can trust your own soul and make judgments. I hope you can care more about yourself. If there is a situation where you have to sacrifice yourself to save others, don't hesitate to abandon yourself. You are not really helpless. Angels who cannot do anything are not prisoners of original sin who were born with them.

Although these hopes are my arrogance, they are also my most sincere wishes.

Happy birthday. "

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

The first bad news that Ichinose Honami received on his birthday was that his mother collapsed at the company due to overwork. The coincidence of this time even made Ichinose Honami doubt for a moment whether his mother was It was intentional, but then she put the ridiculous idea out of her mind.

Using cold water to stimulate the nerves on his face to force himself to stay awake at four in the morning, Honami Ichinose kept walking through the corridors of the hospital, registering, picking up medicines, consulting, and communicating with people from his mother's company. After everything was done, there was even a faint light on the horizon.

Until this moment, the girl could lean on the blue chair in the hall and take a breath. Her eyelids were hanging down almost desperately as if they were hung with heavy pendants. Her lips were also slightly white, and she was sweating first. The wet shirt that had been evaporated by the air conditioner and then soaked had a sticky feeling on her body. Ichinose Hanami stood up unsteadily and prepared to go home and ask Maki to take care of her mother for a while. She needed a warmer in her current situation. A water bath and a good night's sleep.

After returning home with a strong breath, Ichinose Honami explained the situation to Ichinose Maki, who had just woken up and didn't know what had happened. He also told her the location of her mother's current ward. After seeing her hurriedly go out to the hospital Then he breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a slippery feeling on his fingertips.

There was a small cake on the table in the living room, which was the size Ichinose Honami requested. Because it was not big enough, there were only three candles on it.

"Take a bath first, then go to sleep after taking a bath."

She walked into the bathroom muttering to herself.

"Wow——"

Hot water poured down from the fluffy head, flowing from the girl's hair along the curve of her body to her toes. The obvious temperature difference made her shiver. She rinsed her body quickly and was about to wash it. When I was washing my head, I found that the shampoo on the shelf nearby had been used up. I shook it upside down repeatedly, and finally only a little was poured into my palm.

"Huh, forget it."

The half-side mirror installed on the sink was blurred by water vapor. Ichinose Honami reached out and wiped it to create an obvious bright mark, which reflected her snow-white neck.

Honami Ichinose wiped away the mist on the mirror little by little, and her facial features in the mirror began to become clearer little by little.

She reached out and gently touched herself in the reflection.

"It's okay, it will get better."

The words that had comforted others countless times did not seem to have an obvious effect on her. She saw herself smiling bitterly in the mirror.

There was a cold touch on the glass, and this stimulation made her feel a little comfortable, so she leaned her forehead against it.

A little bit of coldness stimulated the skin against the mirror, and Ichinose Honami closed his eyes.

The white and greasy breasts were squeezed out to a dizzying extent, and the hot and humid breath hit the mirror, forming a new mist.

"Growing up..."

Ichinose Honami lowered his eyes and murmured to himself.

After getting dressed, I walked out of the bathroom, walked straight into the bedroom, and buried my whole body under the quilt. I was obviously exhausted to the extreme, but I couldn't fall asleep.

[Go to his room and sleep]

Once such a thought appeared in his mind, it swept through his body like a flood bursting a bank. Ichinose Hanami opened the door of Kitagawa Ryo's former home with a quilt in his arms.

Sure enough, as long as you lie here, your mind will calm down.

"Birthday, Mother's Good Friday?"

Kitagawa Ryo's words came to her mind inexplicably, and Ichinose Honami struggled to get up. She walked into her living room and found the cake on the table with blurred eyes.

The lighter for lighting the candles was placed next to her. She took the cake and the lighter back to Kitagawa Ryo's room, and sat there alone to light the three candles.

"The next step is to make a wish, right?"

"I hope... my mother's illness will get better soon."

She breathed drowsily into the three flickering fires in her field of vision.

............

I don't know how long I slept, so I squinted my eyes and opened my phone. There were about ten missed calls and unread messages on it, all from one person.

"Hey, Ryo."

He had no intention of watching, so it would be more convenient to call him directly. Although his mental state was obviously a little unstable, Ichinose Honami still made such a decision.

"Fanbo?"

A familiar voice came from the other side of the receiver.

[What would he say? Ask about mother's condition? Are you concerned about my current situation? Or a birthday gift or something? ]

"I'm at your doorstep."

The voice over there rejected all of Ichinose Honami's assumptions. It was not a question but a short statement.

"Eh?"

After subconsciously being stunned for a second or two, Ichinose Honami stammered and replied:

"I, I will open the door for you now."

Standing outside the door, Ryo Kitagawa held a black umbrella in his left hand. Honami Ichinose didn't know when he came. If he counted from the time of the first call, he seemed to have been in front of the door. He hesitated for a while.

"You forgot to take your umbrella away the night before yesterday, and you didn't go to get it yesterday, so I brought it back to you."

Kitagawa Ryo raised his eyes. Hanami Ichinose, who was neatly wrapped in pink pajamas, was in a completely different and beautiful posture.

Her body and personality are getting closer to the future her mother imagined, but the rest is stuck in the past without any real sense.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Noticing the unnatural flush on Ichinose Honami's face, Kitagawa Ryo stretched out his hand, but finally put it down. He could already feel the heat and moisture on the other person's body.

"Won't you come in?"

Ichinose Honami did not answer Kitagawa Ryo's question. She seemed to be obsessed with the question of why he just stood at the door without taking off his shoes at all.

"Do you want me to go out?"

She swayed as if she was really about to step out of the door in her slippers.

"Uh, okay."

Kitagawa Ryo always felt that Ichinose Honami was a little strange today. He had just walked into Ichinose's house after changing his shoes. The next second, his body was pressed against the door by Ichinose Honami. The girl was already fully developed. The body came closer, her chest was placed on his chest, and her toes were slightly raised. Her slender and graceful body was like a full bow at this moment, and her hands opened around his ribs and hugged him behind her.

Hot breath was blowing on Kitagawa Ryo's chest.

"Fanbo?"

It was obviously an extremely ambiguous gesture, but Kitagawa Ryo felt an inexplicable panic at the first moment. He lowered his head and met Ichinose Honami's moist eyes, and his blue pupils were almost filled with moisture. It made him lose his mind all of a sudden.

Ichinose Honami learned to reassure his mother very early, so her crying was never heard.

The tears fell drop by drop, like broken pearls, one by one, running down the cheeks and soaking the clothes on Kitagawa Ryo's chest.

Some people cry because of fear, some people cry because of sadness, and some people cry because of joy.

Crying has always been given various meanings.

But now she was just crying, silently, silently, shedding tears.

Perhaps Ichinose Honami has only now realized that even though she is sixteen years old this year, she is actually just an immature child. However, she had never been willing to treat herself as a child before, so she forgot that she was still a child. Children, since you are already crying, then cry more happily and be a child more thoroughly.

She and Kitagawa Ryo are the only two people in this family now.

So Ichinose Hanami began to narrate intermittently. She was like a devout believer who walked into the church. In front of the warm firelight, facing a kind priest, she told all her feelings and thoughts in detail, and all her hatred. She spoke out all the repressed details of her love and held it in her hands for him to see.

She said she liked Hotaru so much, and she was especially grateful to Kitagawa Ryo for taking Hotaru home after her.

She said she liked him so much. In fact, when she was twelve years old, every paper crane she folded for him had "I like you" written on it.

The fire flickered.

Next to the sleeping girl, the burning candle was weeping drop by drop, until its bottom finally couldn't bear the weight, and half of the candle head rolled aside.

There are paper cranes one after another.

ps: I wish all readers a long (crossed out) May Day holiday and a happy May Day holiday.

ps2: I will post an hour early today, because the author is more free during the holiday, and I plan to open a reward and post a chapter description at one o'clock.

Ichinose Honami's Summer Reappearance: Put a Bounty on It

The first thing to explain is that this book has an outline. Regarding the main line that has been mentioned in the book review area, the author must have been prepared. The main line will most likely start at about 200,000 words. The original meaning of the simulator It is to first let the protagonist understand the background story of the character and provide cheats. Fans who actually teach basically start from the time of enrollment. This book was written because I was interested in what happened to many characters before they entered school.

But since everyone has been pushing the progress, and the author does have free time to code during the May Day holiday, let's open a reward.

Starting from midnight today, for every four hundred recommendation votes, forty monthly votes, and four thousand tips, one update and four thousand words will be added, with a maximum of ten updates. This is already my limit.

Finally, thank you all for reading. If you have any suggestions, please leave a message in the book review area.

Summer Reappearance of Ichinose Honami: Chapter 21: Fireworks Easily Cold (End)

"At around 5 pm on July 20, a fire broke out on the fourth floor of a four-story apartment in Nakano District, this city. Fortunately, the house where the fire broke out had been vacant for a year, so there were few combustibles. Firefighters arrived in time and used high-pressure water cannons and fire extinguishers. The fire was extinguished. As for the cause of the fire, the firefighters said that they have not yet investigated clearly. This incident caused one person to be slightly injured and has been sent to the hospital for relevant treatment."

Karuizawa Megumi picked up the remote control and turned off the TV. Before that, she had been sitting motionless on the sofa for thirty minutes. If not for this action, she would have almost thought she was sitting in a temple. She was a silent statue, but unlike those clay and golden Bodhisattvas, the look she cast towards her opponent was a bit colder and more ferocious than that of an evil ghost. This layer of coldness stood between her and the other side like a wall. Between the waves of Noze.

"Why would you light a candle in an empty room he doesn't live in?"

Karuizawa Megumi's words were thrown at Ichinose Honami like an axe, and the sparks of memories crackled all of a sudden. Both the farthest memories and the most recent memories rushed over from the well in the heart and knocked open the room. The boy at the door and the paper crane burning in the fire crashed into her mind.

"none of your business?"

Ichinose Honami became inexplicably irritated because of Karuizawa Megumi's irritation. She stared at Karuizawa Megumi's face and laughed, then repeated her words:

"What does this have to do with you?"

As soon as her tone became serious, her whole person seemed to come back to her senses. No matter how friendly Ichinose Honami was, she was also the student council president of the school, so she naturally had a leadership temperament.

In the past, Karuizawa Megumi was afraid of living with this kind of temperament. It was probably because the leaders of girls could control the public opinion of the entire class. During the two years of junior high school, she had already suffered from these people, so she became one of them. After Sehonami's expression turned cold, she actually became a little scared.

"...It's still the same."

Ichinose Honami looked at Karuizawa Megumi's shaken look and shook his head. After Kitagawa Ryo was hospitalized for a second time due to the fire she caused yesterday, the hostess of the Kitagawa family finally took the earliest flight from abroad this morning. The flight returned to Tokyo, and as a result, Ichinose Honami and Karuizawa Megumi were all driven back home by their unhappy mother.

"I can't get through and I can't contact you."

This time, it was Ichinose Honami who was guarding the phone. She looked at the unread messages and unanswered calls, and felt a strange pain in her heart, as if she was watching someone helplessly talking to her. It sank to the bottom of the sea in front of him until he completely disappeared.

"..."

There was silence again. Honami Ichinose seemed to realize that what he had just said was a bit serious. He thought about it and planned to apologize to Karuizawa Megumi. But before he could say anything, the screen of his mobile phone suddenly lit up, and the two of them said it in unison. I leaned over, but unfortunately, it was Ichinose's mother's phone number.
