Liuli's efficiency is much higher than Gen Chitose had imagined.

After saying this, she started buying tickets.

Gen Chitose was even a little uneasy. In his life, which was not long but already heavy enough, no one had ever been nice to him for no reason.

Yuan Zhisheng might be one of them, but that's not without reason.

They had shared the same womb before birth and depended on each other for fourteen years after birth.

Sometimes, he would feel that all the kindness Yuan Zhisheng showed him was forced, and that he was oppressed by the unchangeable blood relationship.

That's why the other party was able to kill him so decisively only after knowing that he was a ghost.

"Are you planning to leave Yokohama?"

Liuli looked up at him with a puzzled look in her eyes, "Can't I leave here?"

Yuan Zhinu shook her head awkwardly, feeling that her words were a bit rude, so she couldn't help but feel sentimental and self-pitying.

"That's not what I meant. I just thought you liked this place very much."

His voice softened. "I've read your book. In your writing, Yokohama is a very beautiful place."

Liuli paused for a moment as she swiped her fingers on the phone. She was not a patient person, especially when she no longer needed to tolerate others.

Explaining one's inner thoughts is a tiresome and futile task.

"Yuan-kun, you have to know that if a person falls in love with a place other than their hometown, it's usually because there are people in that place who make them feel at home."

"For me, I don't like this country, nor do I like any city in this country."

Liuli said calmly, "Yokohama is no different from any other city. It's just a temporary place to stay. It doesn't matter whether you like it or not."

“So-called beauty is something fleeting and fragile, disappearing in the blink of an eye.”

Genji didn't continue the topic, but instead asked, "If possible, would you please call me by my name?"

"Call me a young girl. The name Yuanjun always makes me feel like you're calling me brother."

Liuli nodded indifferently and continued to click away on her phone.

She couldn't help but frown as she lowered her head. All the tram tickets for today were sold out. It didn't take much to guess that this was definitely the result of someone doing it on purpose.

Yuan Zhinu stared at her silently and asked softly, "How about we go by plane?"

Seeing Liuli's look, he added, "I can fly a plane. I'm good at it."

"But isn't this illegal?" Liuli hesitated and asked, "Don't island nations have airspace rights?"

Yuan Zhinv burst out laughing and said in a serious tone, "We can take the Silver King's route. The Gold King pays a lot of money to the Americans every year."

"Tsk." Liuli tutted in dissatisfaction, "The taxes I pay every year are not a small amount."

"There's no way. Tax thieves are something we'll never be able to eradicate."

When he said this, he sounded like a child imitating an adult's tone, with a kind of pretentious seriousness and cuteness.

So the two of them looked at each other and laughed together.

"Then we'll take a plane." Liuli said, "The Yokohama underground organization has many private planes, we can just rob any one."

"We're flying directly from Yokohama to Tokyo. Are you sure you're okay?"

Genji nodded seriously. "I'm not sure about the others, but I'm good at flying a plane and singing opera."

After hearing the latter part, Liuli was silent for a moment, and then suddenly laughed again, "I had an ex-boyfriend who sang opera very well."

"Can you sing 'The Drunken Concubine'?"

Genjiro shook his head uncomfortably. Most of the songs he could sing were traditional repertoires of the island country. Although he had thought about learning the culture of the ancient country, he was unable to learn those complicated characters in a short period of time.

Liuli smiled again, this time a little softer than before, "Then you should learn it. 'The Drunken Concubine' is very nice."

"Can you sing?"

Liuli shook her head. "I know a few lines from The West Chamber, but I can't sing The Drunken Concubine. I prefer The West Chamber."

As she spoke, she placed the knitting box on the table and began to sort through the items inside.

Akutagawa was unilaterally abandoned by her yesterday, and no one knows where he is now. She doesn't care much about this.

With the arrow in hand, supernatural powers and a stand, neither the Akutagawa siblings nor Yosano Akiko and Edogawa Ranpo are necessary anymore.

There was no need to stay in Yokohama, and there was no need to say goodbye.

Just leave.

In the woven box were neatly folded skirts, a small box of sparkly candies, a miniature passport, and tickets to the aquarium and the amusement park.

It was sorted by Yosano Akiko, she is always very careful.

In any aspect.

Liuli closed the weaving box and turned to look at Yuan Zhinu who was arranging flowers. "I'm done. Let's go."

Yuan Zhinu came over to help her carry the suitcase and calmly took her arm. "Do you want to clean up the flowers in the house? Otherwise, they will all wither when you come back."

"Need not."

Liuli glanced around the entire house: the huge floor-to-ceiling windows facing the sea, the various oil paintings, the old-fashioned Western European clocks, the antique Steinway piano...

Roses and blue lotus flowers bloomed, violets and hydrangeas intertwined, and on the wooden cabinets were colorful crystal marbles and sparkling multicolored candies placed in glass jars...

It is so gorgeous that it dazzles the eyes, yet it also carries an inexplicable warmth.

"Time will stand still in this house from the moment I leave."

Even if all the shells on the seashore shattered into dust like glass, even if the dusk on the horizon died and resurrected thousands of times, even if the eight years she and Lan Tang had spent together became an insignificant prequel to her future life...

There are always some things that will never change.

"Now, it's time for us to leave."

……

"You really don't want to say goodbye?"

On the plane, Gen Chinu asked cautiously.

Just as he said, he was indeed good at flying planes. After Liuli stopped the time at the GSS base camp, they picked a plane quite calmly and flew away.

"There's no need." Liuli looked at the sun setting in front of her and suddenly felt like they were chasing the sunset.

"Saying goodbye is a cruel and meaningless thing that gives people unrealistic expectations."

She thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "If I want to take revenge on someone, I will say goodbye to him and make an appointment with him to meet again."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Genji asked softly. His hands were steady, but his voice trembled slightly. "If we set a deadline, parting wouldn't be so sad."

"No, that's not the case." Liuli closed her eyes and half-reclined on the chair for a nap. "In prison, people will find that there are often more suicides during Christmas than usual."

"Because prisoners hold out hope that they can go home on that day, or that someone will come to visit them."

"Once your hopes are dashed, the disappointment you receive will be greater than ever before."

"Fill his heart with hope first, and then you can make him die of despair faster, because all you have to do is destroy his hope."

“Easy and quick.”

Genji stopped talking, Liuli's breathing gradually calmed down, and the world became unusually quiet.

"Oh my god——"

Hearing the little girl's scream, Liuli opened her eyes and looked in the direction he was looking.

Outside the glass window, the coastline of Yokohama Port is clearly visible, and the setting sun at dusk casts a shallow light and shadow on the sparkling sea surface.

The golden beach and the blue sea turned crimson.

That is……

Tens of thousands of roses covered the entire beach and ocean, and the crimson sea of ​​roses almost submerged the sky.

In the sunset, in the sky, everything you see is red.

It's like an endless, never-ending fire that can burn the whole world to ashes.

Romance and beauty are common.

This sentence suddenly flashed through Liuli's mind. She looked towards the center of countless roses, where stood a small black shadow, like an eternal reef in the flowing water.

"I'm going to buy enough roses to cover the entire beach."

"Then I'll confess my love to you with a rose in my hand."

This is exactly--

Bright red roses covered the entire beach and even the sea.

It was as if at this evening, all the roses in the city belonged to her at this moment.

So beautiful, so romantic.

Like a beautiful lie, a romantic dream.

……

Dazai Osamu held a bouquet of red roses and watched the plane fly away in the direction of the setting sun.

He stood at the forty-fifth sunset, in a sea of ​​hundreds of thousands of roses, looking up at the white bird leaving the embrace of the roses.

"Goodbye, Teacher Liuli."

"Goodbye, my little prince."

he thinks--

One day, the fox will adapt to this human body.

Then, love the person he has always loved in a human way.
