"Let me go back to my hometown to study... Mom, did you explain to Grandpa that those two times were accidents and there was nothing that could be done about it?"

Shimizu Miyoko shook her head inwardly.

"That's your grandfather. He has expressed his thoughts. I dare not say anything."

But the next moment she turned to look at her husband,

"But your father did explain it to him."

"Oh?"

A glimmer of hope appeared in Qingshuichuan's eyes, and he looked at his father.

Qingshuichuan's chin was too high. He put his hands in his pockets and stood up slowly. The corners of his mouth turned up, revealing his white front teeth.

"Then I was scolded by your grandfather."

Miyoko Shimizu added,

"Then he just stopped farting."

"What can I do? The doctor said he can't be stimulated."

So what's with you standing up like you figured everything out?!

"Eh……"

Qingshuichuan could no longer remember how many times he sighed in just over ten minutes.

"Mom...I don't really want to go back to my hometown to study."

He thought about it over and over again and wanted to fight for himself.

When he moved out alone, his initial desire to experience the prosperity of the Tokyo metropolis was no longer important.

The main thing is... now there are people in this city that he cares about...

Well... there's more than one...

“I dare not say anything about your grandfather’s decision.

But I think what your grandfather said is true, ever since you left home to live alone.

I always encounter these bad things. Maybe if you move back home, these bad things can be avoided."

"Mom, why are you so superstitious?"

Qingshuichuan knew the specific reason, but he couldn't explain it in detail.

"Be superstitious if you want to. Your old school is closed anyway, so why don't you consider Grandpa's advice?"

Although it is true that Shimizu Miyoko also likes Shiyu.

However, now that the Internet is so developed, people from all over the world can easily see each other through video chat software.

Besides, three years of high school is not that long. Young people can afford to wait for such a short time.

They both have good grades, so it would be nice if they could choose the same university in the future.

"..."

Qingshuichuan scratched his head in distress.

"I know you don't want to, but even if you don't want to, you still have to go home and see grandpa after you are discharged from the hospital.

Your father and I have no other options, but if you can convince your grandfather yourself..."

There is some hope in the Qingshui River.

"If I can convince Grandpa...how about that?"

Shimizu Miyoko tapped his head lightly.

"Just wait until you can really do that."

outside the ward.

Eriri Sawamura and Utaha Kasumigaoka quietly left the ward door.

He silently stepped back a few steps and stood in the corridor without saying a word.

Chuan (Jun) is going back to his hometown to study...

There was no longer the hostility in the eyes of the two men that they had during yesterday's confrontation.

Everyone seemed a little uneasy at the moment.

Although from Qingshui's mother's last words, it seemed that there was still room for negotiation and negotiation.

But they both subconsciously consider the worst possible outcome.

Shimizukawa's hometown is in Kumamoto, but he never mentioned where exactly.

Even if you count from the most central point of Kumamoto Prefecture, the straight-line distance to Tokyo is more than 900 kilometers.

If you take the Shinkansen... the journey will take at least ten hours.

Even by plane, it would take more than an hour.

Add to that the time it takes to get from home to the airport, and then wait to board the plane...if you also count all these miscellaneous times.

It will take at least four or five hours.

Separate from him?

unacceptable!

But even if it's unacceptable, there doesn't seem to be any other way...

After all, it's someone else's family affair...

"Wow--"

The door of the ward was opened.

Qingshui Wu came out.

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Sawamura Eriri turned around and saw him, temporarily suppressing the sad expressions on their faces and greeting him.

Qingshui Wu responded with a smile, and was not surprised that the two of them appeared outside the ward door.

The mother and son on the other side of the hospital bed were chatting so they didn't notice.

But he was sitting nearby the entire time and could see everything clearly through the crack in the ward door.

"Did you both hear that?"

Eriri and Kasumigaoka were both stunned when they heard this.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's reaction was obviously faster.

She immediately bent down.

"I'm sorry uncle, I wanted to stop her."

Varied……!?

You are a dog!

Or...the dirtiest kind!

Eriri was completely shocked. How could there be such a shameless person in the world!

She swore to God, if this wasn't in front of Uncle Qingshui.

She must raise her foot high and kick the woman in black stockings hard on the butt!

"No, uncle, listen to me... No, listen to my explanation!"

"Alright, alright! It's okay, you don't have to worry about it."

Shimizu Takeshi pressed his hands down to signal the Sawamura children to calm down.

"Actually, it's good that you heard it. It saves me the time of explaining."

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri were stunned when they heard this, not quite understanding what the uncle in front of them meant.

“Back when I graduated from high school and was about to go to university, I also wanted to leave home and go to Hokkaido to study.

But my father, Chuan's grandfather, always disagreed.

He thought I had good grades and there were better alternatives closer to home, so why should I go to study so far away?

But he didn't know that I just longed for the city of Hokkaido and wanted to see the distant scenery and the people far away.

After I failed to communicate with him, I had a big fight with him and went to Hokkaido directly despite his objections. He was so angry that he cut off all my funding.

He also said something like, "Since you're gone, don't ever come back."

My life was quite difficult at that time. Not only did I have to work to earn tuition, but I also had to take care of my studies..."

Eriri and Kasumigaoka looked at each other silently.

The doubts on their faces became even more pronounced.

I don't quite understand why Uncle Qingshui suddenly started telling his own story.

The next moment, Qingshui Wu changed the subject.

"...But even though I made my father so angry, I was able to mend our relationship in the end."

He paused for a moment, staring at the two of them with a dim gaze, and said slowly,

"Do you know why this is?"

Kasumigaoka and Eriri cooperated very well and shook their heads in confusion.

"That's because, not long after that, I brought Chuan's mother back home."

Qingshui Wu looked out the window,

"If Chuan can explain to his grandfather the significance of his staying in this city this time, and make him understand that his decision wasn't arbitrary but that he had his reasons, then perhaps..."

He didn't finish the rest of his words, but laughed. If he continued, it would be too deliberate.

"Oh, by the way, there are a lot of delicious things in Kumamoto, like horse meat sashimi, wasabi lotus root, and elegant seaweed rolls...

The rice, fruits and vegetables grown in our own fields are also delicious.

By the way, girls like you probably like dolls too.

You should know Kumamon, he is very cute, right? There are countless kinds of dolls around him.

If you have the chance in the future, you are welcome to come and play."

After saying these words, Qingshui Wu said nothing more.

He turned and left down the other end of the corridor.

The two girls silently raised their heads in the direction he left.

He stood there and thought silently for a while.

suddenly!

They looked at each other.

He spoke quickly, as if afraid that the other party would get there first.

"Let me go! (I go!)"

The two people said this sentence in unison.

"What are you going to do? (What's the point of you going?)"

Another round of bickering with the sync rate at full.

"..."

The two men stared at each other, neither willing to give in.

Because the sound is a bit loud.

This was noticed by Miyoko Shimizu in the ward.

He pushed open the ward and stuck his head out.
