After Boqi moved into my closet, the quiet life is gone forever

Su Shi's voice was choked and anxious

"Saki-chan, if you're not here, what can I do to get you back? I'm willing to do anything I can...!"

Su Shi knelt on the ground and begged with tears in her eyes, but her words and the easy kneeling posture had the opposite effect.

Xiangzi took a deep breath when he heard this, the fire in his brain was instantly ignited and his expression became terrifying.

"...How confident are you that you said that?"

"what?"

Xiangzi questioned in a voice as cold as the Arctic wind.

"You're just a student. Do you think you can shoulder the responsibility of someone else's life? Do you understand how heavy it is to say you're willing to do anything? Don't say things you can't do!"

After saying that, he looked at Chaoyang fiercely.

"But, I really..."

Even so, Su Shi did not give up and still held Xiangzi's hand, trying to persuade him.

But Xiangzi shook off Sushi's hand with all his might, his words even colder than the previous one, making the listener subconsciously want to curl up for warmth, but in the morning sun, it was as beautiful as the northern lights.

"You are a person who only thinks about yourself."

After saying this, Xiangzi mercilessly cut off Su Shi's last hope. She turned around, her figure lengthened under the lights of the park, her steps firm and without any hesitation.

Su Shi knelt on the spot, his whole body trembling, his eyes full of disbelief and despair.

Chaoyang glanced at Su Shi who was kneeling on the ground and knew that she had finally given up this time.

He stood up from the bench, walked out of the park and planned to call a taxi to take Su Shi home.

"……What do you mean."

"boom"

After walking out of the door, a lady's handbag was thrown to Chaoyang, who caught it easily. Xiangzi was standing beside the wall.

It seems that he is waiting for me.

"Did you call me here just to see this kind of plot? Are you satisfied now?"

Xiangzi folded his hands over his chest, waiting for Chaoyang's answer. Although Xiangzi's attitude was still cold, everything had to be compared. Compared with before, Xiangzi now could only be considered friendly.

"Even if I wasn't here, you would have done something like this with her sooner or later, right? She would have done it as long as there was a glimmer of hope. I was almost moved by her just now and wanted you to accompany her to reorganize CRYCHIC."

Chaoyang said with a smile.

"Do you think water can flow upstream?"

"No."

Chaoyang actually wanted to say yes, after all, the monsters in the other world could do it easily, and he had also learned water magic, so he could do it if the water flow was not strong.

But I won’t be so clever at this time.

"The same past times will never come back. ...Don't even think about getting away with it...I just got off work and was called over. She just said she contacted Mu, but she didn't get through. Are you behind this? What's your purpose?"

Xiangzi's shoulders shook, and he seemed angry again.

"Me? I'm just trying to get someone who lived in the past to live in the present again. It's both helping her and punishing her."

"This is just for this time. If you do this again next time, our contract will be void. Even without you, it will only cost me a little more, and I can still achieve my goal."

Xiangzi was bluffing this time, but she really didn't want to be toyed with by Chaoyang, so she had to bet that he really wanted her.

"I know, I know. There won't be a next time. It's almost over between you two anyway."

"..."

Xiangzi silently looked back at the park. Although he couldn't see what was going on inside from the entrance, he was afraid that it was still

"Go take her home."

His expression revealed a hint of melancholy and a hint of tenderness.

But it disappeared in a flash, and he returned to his usual cold and indifferent face, and walked home quickly without a care in the world.

Chaoyang sighed.

"It turns out this guy isn't as heartless as I imagined..."

Chaoyang scratched his head and walked back into the park.

Su Shi was still kneeling there without moving. He had suffered such a severe mental blow that he had not yet recovered.

Consciousness escapes into the world of fantasy.

"There's no other way. I'll just have to inconvenience you and let you stay on my back for a while."

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

I remember how lonely I was when my mother and father divorced.

At first, life with my mother was very hard, but my mother worked very hard, and the family gradually became wealthy and lived in a huge luxury apartment in Roppongi that I had only seen on TV.

Life has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

But the loneliness did not disappear from me, rather it became even worse.

Because it is common for my mother not to come home, although the house I live in has become bigger, it has also magnified my inner loneliness.

"I've been all alone."

"Ah."

Then, I enrolled in Tsuki no Mori as my mother wished.

But in fact, I was very scared inside. I was afraid that as a commoner, I would not fit in.

Just as I guessed, I was still alone after entering school.

"If I were needed by others, I wouldn't be lonely, right?"

"Is that so?"

Thinking this way, I began to take the initiative to take on housework, and I would always help those in trouble at school. Although life was tiring, it also felt fulfilling. But I didn't understand at the time whether it was fulfilling because of the busyness or because I was no longer lonely.

After gradually developing good relationships with classmates, he was invited to join the ensemble club.

When choosing musical instruments, I also chose the double bass that everyone had left out.

More and more people rely on it.

but……

“This isn’t where I belong.”

"really."

Just when I was wondering if this loneliness would stay with me forever, she appeared.

It was as if a white light illuminated my eyes.

"Is this Nagasaki Suyo-san? Excuse me, but are you interested in forming a band?"

After a performance at a music festival, Saki-chan appeared in front of me with a smile that could light up my world.

But at that time, I joined the band simply because if someone needed me, I would agree. I didn't have any special thoughts about the band itself.

"From now on, we are a band... a community with a shared destiny to play music together."

After listening to Xiangzi's words, I was also very excited and felt warm in my heart. That day I finally understood what it felt like when loneliness disappeared.

"But it's all over, CRYCHIC."

Suddenly, the appearance of this sentence shattered the whole world into pieces, and Su Shi lost his footing and fell into the endless abyss.

She kept falling... falling...

307. Coming to the Su Family Again

A strong wind blew on Su Shi's body, and the coldness around her stimulated her. She, who had been falling into the abyss in her dream, gradually woke up.

"Um...well..."

I could faintly smell the stench of sweat, the sound of other people breathing, and the sound of objects colliding.

"Hey, are you awake?"

“…!? Why, why are you putting me down now!?”

When Su Shi woke up, she immediately found herself on Chaoyang's back and struggled to get down.

"Don't move if you want to die. Hey!"

As Chaoyang said this, he leaped up with all his might. His fingers dug into the cracks in the wall. The night wind whistled past them, and Sushi was startled to realize the environment they were in.

"Here, this is! Outside the building???"

Despite this experience, Su Shi's voice was filled with barely concealed panic and shock. Her hands clutched Chao Yang's clothes tightly, trying not to look at the dizzying heights below. She felt every cell in her body screaming, the cold wind at high altitude slicing her cheeks like a sharp blade, and her heartbeat was as rapid as a drum.

"So you're still afraid? I thought you were so devastated that you lost all other emotions."

Chaoyang, who was struggling to climb the wall, teased Su Shi behind him.

"You...you! Is this how you come to my house? Just go through the door normally!"

Su Shi finally understood how Chao Yang had gotten to her house. She'd suspected it before, considering Chao Yang's previous actions had already proven him to be superhuman. But now, she felt his strength all over again. He climbed with one hand while carrying her on his back, holding Su Shi with his other hand. He used a belt to support both of them, constantly swinging himself and jumping. His jumps, suspended in mid-air, were even more terrifying.

"I can't help it. You're unconscious and I don't want to be taken away by the police."

Chaoyang replied with a smile.

"Don't move, we're almost there."

"I didn't move!!! Please go through the main door next time! If you really can't, I'll even give you my house key! Don't go this way to my house anymore!!! If possible, I hope you won't come to my house!!!"

"So, should I jump now?"

Chaoyang deliberately asked Su Shi back, and as he spoke, he loosened his hands and suddenly fell down.

"Ahhh!"

After falling a short distance, Chaoyang heard Su Shi's scream and casually inserted his hand into the wall.

"So is it going up or down?"

"Please, please climb up first!"

Under Chaoyang's torture, Su Shi had already forgotten what Xiangzi had just done.

Chaoyang stopped procrastinating and climbed up again with a smile.

Soon he climbed onto the balcony of the Su family's house on the top floor.

Su Shi opened her eyes, looked around, and after making sure she was standing on solid ground, she took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself. Her legs were still trembling slightly.

"vomit!!!"

After all, during the climb up just now, Chaoyang carried her on his back and completed several difficult 360-degree turns, which was more or less too stimulating for ordinary people.

Su Shi finally couldn't hold it in and vomited.

This was the first time Chaoyang saw a girl other than Pochi vomit.

He didn't dislike it at all, he just squatted down and patted her back.

"You...this..."

Su Shi was so immersed in the life of the eldest lady that she could no longer think of any curse words.

"Sorry, sorry, I overdid it. But do you think you're not so sad now?"

“…Get out of here!!!”

After vomiting, Su Shi finally rolled out.

"Ahaha, calm down. I'll make you some tea."

Chaoyang said as he walked into the house. He had completely learned the shamelessness of Sandwich Sauce.
