February 2005, 12, New Year's Eve.

It has been a week since the last time we broke up at the racecourse with Shi Er in the Zen Academy, and the two have not been in contact with each other. Kamo Rei is living his life as a senior high school student step by step, preparing for the approaching final exam. .

Kuihuang High School had a holiday on the 28th. During the whole week of New Year's holiday, Lian wanted to stay at home and play games, as if stepping out of the apartment would kill him.

But his dream was completely shattered on New Year's Eve. When ordering at noon, he called ten restaurants, nine of which were closed for the holidays, and one did not provide delivery during the New Year. The family ran out of ammunition and food. It will be useless if you go down.

Rei Kamo remembered that this was 2005, not 2015. At this time, the catering industry had not yet been involved in the New Year's day like later generations and had delivery services.

At this time in previous years, Kamo Rei hadn't severed ties with the family yet. Although he didn't inherit the spells, as the only eldest son, he had a whole day of entertainment to do, and it was impossible for him to be as idle as he is now.

Generally speaking, at the New Year's Eve banquet, the eldest son of the Kamo family faced a group of famous magicians with their jaws raised to the sky.Kamo Rei can only use their nostrils as eyes most of the time, complete a lot of meaningless banquet procedures with a blank face, and then wait for the New Year's Eve, bell ringing, first visit to the temple...

After finishing everything that the eldest son should do, the sky is basically dawn, but he can't sleep yet. At six o'clock in the morning on the first day of the new year, he has to sit in a room with dozens of people from Kamo's family and listen to the patriarch's long speech speak.This is not over yet, for the next whole day, he has to wear a heavy monozuke hakama, keep a kneeling posture, while smirking, while dealing with the guests who come to visit one after another.

——Therefore, the New Year has always been a kind of torture for Kamo Rei.

After finally being able to lie down like a salted fish for the New Year's Eve, but without a big meal, Rei Kamo felt sincere pain.

He tossed and turned on the carpet in the living room, but he was too lazy to go downstairs, the cold wind was biting outside, and only the heating in the apartment could comfort his wounded heart. Just after he rolled back and forth 108 times, killed the game's big boss level 25 times, got the When the most difficult achievement in history was "unscathed", the doorbell was suddenly rang.

Who is it?

Kamo is a little dazed, he has lost the sense of time in a dream, and he is still wearing a light yellow cartoon bear pajamas - bought a cotton quilt as a gift, the pajamas buttons are undone, and the corners of the collar are rolled and crumpled Yes, decadent and sloppy.

The boy put down the handle, slowly got up from the ground, and used his fingers to straighten his messy hair that was up to the sky. His eye circles were red from staying up late, and he yawned. His light golden eyes instantly seemed to be soaked in a pool of water.

He didn't know who would knock on his door at this time, and he hadn't told anyone where he lived since he moved to the new apartment.

Oh, except for one guy.

Kamo Rei didn't wear slippers either, she walked to the door with bare feet, asked "Who is it", released the lock, and turned the doorknob——

"Surprise!" The girl's sweet voice sounded.

Rei Kamo was slightly taken aback, a black-haired head with a red bow poked into the crack of the door, before the boy could react, the girl's brown-black eyes quickly swept across the room, "There is no one hiding."

After the surprise, the blond boy had a helpless expression on his face, "Senior Diva, who can I hide?"

An Ge Ji giggled in a very unladylike manner, and didn't say who was hiding. She squinted her eyes and stared at the young man, took a step back, and opened the door, "Dangdangdangdang——"

Kamo Rei had already seen the extra pair of legs protruding from the crack of the door, but she still let out a wow in cooperation with the diva.

Mingming stood behind An Ge Ji, her light blue hair was tied up high, and a bow was tied with a black string, and she could tell it was Die Ji's handwriting at a glance.

"Sister Mingming."

Ming Ming stared at Kamo Rei's face, and chuckled sharply, "Hey, you seem a little disappointed, who are you waiting for?"

Kamo was stunned, was he disappointed?

He shook his head, "I'm not waiting for anyone, but if I have to say it, I'm looking forward to the pizza delivery behind the door."

"You won't—" An Geji stepped into the entrance and saw a stack of neatly folded takeaway boxes, "I pity you to eat this at home?"

"Is there any problem?" Rei Kamo scratched the back of his head, "I don't want to go out during holidays."

Angeji sighed heavily.

"Isn't the diva senior also the type of hangover on the rest day?" The boy smiled and said, "Obviously I can understand it."

Diva: ...

An Geji pulled Mingming to block the door, and interrupted: "Okay, okay, I'm here today to take you to a dinner party."

"Dinner?" Kamo Rei was a little puzzled.

"Yes, New Year's tradition."

"Why didn't I know there was such a tradition before?"

"The tradition just decided this year." An Ge Ji clapped her hands and said in an unquestionable tone, "It's all right, I pity you and change your clothes quickly, we'll start right away, there are still a few high school students staying in Tokyo waiting with us."

Kamo asked confusedly, "Who?"

"First graders." Mingming replied instead of Diva, "The three of them are the only ones who can handle emergencies, so they were forced to stay in school together with us."

With a super nanny and two first-level magicians, it's no wonder Gaozhuan is unwilling to let go.

Kamo Rei first showed the original expression, and then there was some pity - he is familiar with this, college students do not have vacations, and they are often dragged to do coolies in the middle of the vacation, very sad, at least social animals have laws Guaranteed rest days, unlike high-level specialists, 365 is on call 007 days a year.

Fortunately, Kamo Rei slipped away ahead of schedule.

"Hurry up and change your clothes!" Angeji pushed Kamo Rei's back into the room, "It's almost 05:30, everyone is waiting!"

Kamo Rei was dragged into the car in such a muddle-headed way, driving in the dark, Ange Ji sat in the co-pilot, licking the popsicles that came out of the boy's refrigerator while turning her head and winking at the boy, "We are I worked so hard to prepare the ingredients all afternoon, and the guy who didn’t work will go buy cantaloupe to make amends later!”

Kamo-rei suddenly understood the good intentions of this guy. The diva senior has been very worried about him since Kamo-rei left Kamo's house. Today, such a strange dinner tradition is probably because he is afraid that he will feel uncomfortable staying at home alone.

In fact, Kamo Rei really wanted to say that he was okay. He watched Diva and Mingming discussing the evening meal with great interest, and a slight smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

"By the way, pity, I want the most expensive Yubari honeydew melon." Mingming added without hesitation, "For the accommodation fee at my house tonight."

"Accommodation fee?" Rei Kamo was puzzled.

"That's right, tonight we are having dinner at the villa in the suburb of Mingming." An Geji said with a smile, "I bought a lot of beer, and everyone decided to watch the New Year's Eve together, and no one will send you back when the time comes. "

When Kamo Rei heard that the singer was going to drink, he suddenly hesitated whether he should go or not. After all, the last time the singer was drunk and forced him to wear a priestess costume and teach him how to sing left a great psychological shadow on him. , although it was stopped by Mingming in the end, but Kamo Rei felt scared when she saw the diva for a long time.

There was a moment of silence in the car, obviously Mingming still remembered what happened back then.

She paused, then said indifferently: "Every person will be charged an additional [-] yen venue fee for drinking, and please clean up the next day. I don't want to clean up the mess for the drunk."

An Ge Ji was very incomprehensible, she tilted her head in confusion, "Are any of us drunks? No."

Rei Kamo: ...

He decided to change the subject and asked Mingming: "Sister Mingming, isn't your home in Tokyo? Is it okay if you don't go back?"

Mingming shook her head coolly, "It's okay, my parents are planning to have another child, and I will be the biggest light bulb when I go back."

She said, parked the car, pulled the handbrake, turned to look at Rei Kamo, and pointed to the high-end fruit shop on the corner, "Yubari Melon."

Rei Kamo shrugged helplessly and got out of the car to go shopping.

Mingming’s villa is in the same direction as Gaozhuan, both located in the suburbs of Tokyo. Although the nearby infrastructure is not perfect, there is only one 24-hour convenience store within a radius of two kilometers, but fortunately, the environment is beautiful and the air is fresh, much more comfortable than in the city up.

The three got out of the car with a big bag full of things. They not only bought melons, but also bought a lot of snacks and drinks.

As soon as he entered the door, cheerful laughter came from the backyard.

They put down their things, went around, and found that the swimming pool was filled with water. In the middle of December, a certain future strongest magician jumped into the water wearing only a pair of duckling shorts, as if he couldn't feel the cold.

There was a girl standing by the pool, she was wearing a comfortable thin sweater, she seemed to have just come out of the heating room, holding a cup of hot coffee in her hand, watching her companion dangling in the water with a blank expression, the other party kept yelling , "Glass Glass, it's really exciting!"

Jia Ruozi turned his head and saw the three people not far away.

"That guy did it himself." Jiarui Niuzi immediately distanced himself from the relationship.

Gojo Satoru heard the movement, turned his head, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Li, come down and compete!"

Kamo Rei silently took a step back, ignoring this guy's familiarity—they haven't met a lot, haven't they?

Standing in place with arms crossed, the white-haired boy turned his head and said, "I'll pay for the water."

Mingming relaxed her standing posture, spread her hands and made a gesture of please.

Ange Ji: "Where's Jie?"

"Still preparing the soup base, what are you saying that the seasoning is not enough." Gojo Satoru scratched his head, "Hey, it's so troublesome, why don't you ask the restaurant to deliver some food, or call my chef."

An Ge Ji put her hands on her hips, "Then there won't be any festive and festive atmosphere at all."

They went in first to change their slippers, and then went back to the pool together, freezing all the drinks and wine they bought outside, so that it would be cool when they ate later.

Gojo Satoru leaned against the edge of the pool, asking for someone to throw him a can of soda.

Xia Youjie was in the kitchen, and the three girls, Mingming, Diva, and Nitro, were hanging up festive lights. Kamo Ren glanced at him, thinking that this guy was willing to hide the magic spell for him, so he kindly took a can and walked to the pool hand it to him.

Who knew that before the soda was handed out, this guy suddenly grabbed his calf, Lian was unprepared, and was dragged into the swimming pool.The cold water immediately penetrated into his clothes and enveloped him in an instant. Fortunately, with the blessing of the flames of the peacock pupils, otherwise the boy would have been terribly frozen.

He jumped up and stood up, his eyes widened, "Are you crazy?"

"I want to see your technique." Gojo Satoru didn't hide his purpose, a pair of faint blue eyes patrolled Kamo Rei, and said pleasantly, "Sure enough, there is fire in his body."

Rei Kamo: ...

It was already wet, and he was not in a hurry to go up. He took off his coat so as not to stick to his body and feel uncomfortable. He leaned against the pool and was slapped by Gojo Satoru again.

The white-haired boy raised his eyebrows: "I see that you are super strong, do you want to compete?"

Kamo is indifferent: "No, I'm not strong at all, I'm a salted fish, please let me go."

"Pity!" An Geji had just finished hanging the colored lanterns above her head, and when she turned around, she saw her pale, slender and weak(?) junior soaking wet in the swimming pool, and the smiling white hair next to her was obviously the culprit.

She ran to the pool, dragged Kamo Rei up—of course, Kamo Rei also actively cooperated—and glared at Gojo Satoru.

Gojo Satoru raised his six eyes in confusion, he was the one who dragged Kamo Rei down, but why did this girl have a protective expression on her face, as a conjurer, it is impossible for that guy to be afraid of the cold.

But the white-haired boy obviously underestimated the image of Kamo Rei in the hearts of his classmates.

Now that the diva saw it, she had no choice but to continue acting.Rei Kamo blinked expertly, water dripping down his cheeks.

The young man's face was pale, his platinum hair became dark after being wet, and the strands of hair stuck to his cheeks in a mess, making him even more fragile.

Kamo Rei even sneezed greenly.

Ah Chirp.

Pure and unaffected, she looks like a sickly beauty at first glance.

Um Diva's eyes flared up.

Gojo Satoru: ……………?

Sorry, who is this?

This is the guy who chopped up the super magic spirit so that his mother didn't even recognize it?

Rei Kamo stood behind the diva, showing a shallow smile at Gojo Satoru, not mocking, but purely wanting to laugh.

The six-eyed boy who had just entered society was stunned, feeling the malice of the world for the first time.

In the end, it was Xia Youjie who pushed open the glass door and yelled "Come in for dinner" to a group of guys in the backyard, and the stalemate at the scene eased.

Angeji guarded Kamo Rei to enter the door cursingly, and Gojo Satoru was also muttering cursingly for some reason.

·

New Year's Eve, eleven thirty.

The black-haired man stepped up the iron stairs of the rental house. He was carrying a plastic bag. Every step he took, he could feel the shaking under his feet. The lamp above his head was broken three days ago. The landlord returned to his hometown for the New Year, and no one came to fix it. .

The corridor was dim, only the light from the side of the road came in through the iron frame, and the faint stairs on the ground could be vaguely seen. Zenyuan Shier stopped at a certain floor, slowly took out the key from his pocket, and opened the door.

"Boy, eat—" The man suddenly closed his mouth, the lights in the room were not turned on, and Hui seemed to be asleep.

He put the red bean rice cake soup bought on the street on the shoe cabinet, closed the door, changed into his slippers, stood in the hallway for a while, then turned around and picked up the rice cake soup and put it in the refrigerator in the kitchen.

He walked into the living room again, and the TV screen was pitch black. He forgot to pay the fee a month ago and stopped the program.

At this time in previous years, he was either running around receiving commissions, or sitting in nightclubs all night. This was the first time he came home so early.

Zenyuan Shi Er thought dully, it seems that it has been more than eight months since the last time he went to the bar. Thanks to that brat, he went whoring for nothing after a fight, which left him with a deep psychological shadow, which caused him to shudder when he heard the word bar. frown.

However, Shi Er has no interest in going out. He just finished a mission this afternoon and just came back from the airport. Although he is not physically tired, he is still mentally tired.

He thought for a while, went back to the kitchen, sat at the dining table, ate the rice cake soup he brought back, and while chewing, flipped through his phone to see if there were any missing task emails or text messages, and deleted a bunch of messages from the mobile phone operator. Happy Holidays SMS.

Just as Zenyuan Shier put it down, the screen suddenly lit up.

He paused, and the sender was "Little Golden Retriever".

Since the racetrack was separated last time, this guy seemed to be annoyed by what he said, and he never took the initiative to contact him again. He didn't expect to send him a text message now.

Zenyuan Shier buckled up his phone, ate the rice cakes slowly, then turned on the screen after a while, and opened the text message from Kamo Rei——

[Happy New Year, thank you for your care in the past year, I wish you good health and happiness]

It looks like a group of blessings.

Chanyuan Shier lowered his eyes, read the words for a long time, his face showed no emotion, and he didn't return, turned off the screen, and put the phone back in his pocket.

Throwing disposable bowls and spoons into the trash can, the man was about to go straight to bed, and halfway there, he found that the door of the second bedroom was wide open, moonlight and neon light penetrated into the room, and the vision of the sky and the curse could be seen clearly.

He clicked his tongue and walked in.

The boy fell asleep lying on the carpet, and beside him were two stupid dogs, one black and one white, who didn't know what they were doing. They would rather huddle together than put the kid on the bed.

After Zenyuan Shier entered the door, the two jade dogs smelled the smell of the man. They turned their heads and found that he was a familiar person, so they hummed twice, turned into a shadow, and disappeared in the darkness.

The man was about to lift his son by the collar and drag him onto the bed, when he found that this guy was pressing a few pieces of paper, and there were a few colored crayons scattered beside him - no need to think about it, that guy Kamo Rei bought it for this kid .

He paused, lifted Hui's shoulders, and lifted the boy onto the bed. The kid was very sleepy, so he didn't wake up.

Zenyuan Shier thought that if this guy grew up to become a conjurer, how many times his vigilance would be beheaded.

He turned around, and there was a thumping sound under his feet, and he stepped on the paper on the carpet.

Zenyuan Shier glanced down, and his footsteps stopped abruptly.

A picture drawn with colored crayons on paper, three stick figures holding hands, one black head, one yellow head, holding the head of a short sea urchin in the middle, next to two four-legged animals, one black and one white, at the bottom of the picture , and a row of crooked caterpillars, Shier looked at it for a long time before realizing that it was a line of words——

【おBirthday おめでとう, おfatherさん】[1]

The man stood still for a long time, sighed faintly, and picked up the paper from the ground.

·

The sukiyaki pot has been refilled three times, and it was eaten up by the group of half-grown teenagers in Gaozhuan. In the end, all the dishes were eaten, only the soup was still simmering, and there were a lot of empty beer bottles and beer bottles under the table legs. Drink cans, everyone basically drank a little too much, only Gojo Satoru, who didn't touch alcohol, remained sober.

But it doesn't matter if this guy is sober or not, his behavior is just as bad. Taking advantage of Xia Youjie's drunkenness, he found a piece of paper and signed it with the other party, coaxing the ball-headed boy into a "bondage" and washing him for free. A month's worth of socks.

On the TV, "Red and White Songs Battle" has come to an end. An Geji took out a portable microphone from nowhere and sang "Love and Tears Follow" loudly along with the TV drunkenly. Yes, I don't know how many bottles I drank, half of the wine on the table was settled by these two guys.

"Why are you always looking at your phone?"

Kamo paused, looked up and saw Mingming staring at him, he tapped the screen, and said in a low voice, "I'm sending holiday greetings."

"Group sending?" Ming Ming raised his eyebrows and shook his phone, "Why didn't I receive it?"

"I didn't receive it either!"

An Geji suddenly rushed over with the microphone, and hugged Kamo Rei's shoulder like a big sister. This guy was drunk, and he patted Lian's back with his palm, and he was a little slurred, "Hey, Lian, you are actually tall. Pretty good."

Rei Kamo glanced at the drunk, and poked his finger on the screen a few times.

Ding dong.

Ding dong.

Ding dong.

Ding dong.

Ding dong.

The mobile phones of the five people present rang at the same time.

The blond boy shrugged, "Look, I sent it, the text message is just delayed."

Mingming glanced at Lian with a half-smile, but didn't reveal anything, just turned on the screen and sighed, "'Happy New Year', enough concise greetings."

Kamo Rei pretended not to hear, he was not drunk at all, if he wanted to, he could use blood and flames to decompose the alcohol in his body, those things would never reach his brain and affect his thinking.

He was not teasing the young man anymore, and turned his head to encourage the nunnery girl to continue singing.

Kamo watched them arguing for a while, then looked away and lowered his head.

His mobile phone screen was still on the SMS page, but the message had been sent for a long time and he had not received a reply.

"It's snowing!" Jiaru Nitrozi suddenly sighed.

Everyone turned their heads in unison to look out the floor-to-ceiling windows. The silver-white snow was falling down like feathers, exuding a layer of faint fluorescence.

"Wow, Chuxue!" Gojo Satoru didn't know what teenage romance comics he had read, "I heard that confessing love during Chuxue will definitely succeed!"

They played and opened the window directly. The conjurer was not afraid of the cold, and they went out of the backyard in the wind. Gojo Wu dragged Xia Youjie and jumped into the swimming pool. Who knew that a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the swimming pool at this time Then, the two teenagers broke the ice abruptly, splashing a large amount of ice water, and An Geji scolded for a while.

Boom———!

Suddenly, gorgeous fireworks pierced the sky, shining brightly in the dark blue night, and the entire sky was like a mirror of a kaleidoscope, full of blazes and fiery trees and silver flowers.

The clock reached twelve o'clock, and the calendar turned over another year.

The noisy and cursing voices stopped, and everyone raised their heads to the sky, with stars shining in their eyes.

The heavy snow reflects the fireworks, the cold and the heat intersect, and the sky and the earth are shining brightly.

"Happy New Year!" The boys and girls shouted in the snow.

Gojo Satoru set off a big splash, and Diva and Glass jumped out of the pool to join the fight.

"Wow! Sister Mingming, your swimming pool has been cracked by Gojo Wu!"

"what?"

"I'll pay for it, Nitro, it's too much for you to sue! Diva, I saw you sneak attack! Cover me, Jie!"

The lively scene made Kamo Rei a little dazed, at this moment there was a sudden vibration in his pocket.

He lowered his eyes amidst the noise—

【Happy New Year, kid】
