On this hand.

"What on earth is going on? Why?" He squinted his eyes and covered his aching heart. "When I try to recall that memory, I always have this feeling?"

Doubt accompanied by sadness filled Haoshu's heart at this moment.

creak

The door was gently pushed open, and Liuli poked her head out from behind the door.

"Brother, wake up."

A gentle voice interrupted Hao Shu's thoughts. He raised his head and looked at Liuli's lovely face. He was slightly refreshed and greeted her with the unique voice of someone who had just woken up in the morning.

A hoarse, low voice sounded softly in the room.

"Well, good morning."

"Huh?" Liuli was stunned after hearing Haoshu's response and asked with her head tilted.

"Is my brother back to normal?"

"Huh?" Blinking in confusion, Hiroshi could only respond with confusion, "What do you mean?"

He got out of bed, walked to the door and faced Liuli. Their bright eyes met each other, and Liuli took a step back as if she was shocked.

"No, no, no, nothing."

Under Hiroshi's puzzled gaze, he turned around, lowered his head and walked away quickly.

"What kind of situation is this?"

Looking at the departing figure in confusion, Hiroshi shook his head and ignored it. He went downstairs to tidy up and wash up, then returned to the room. He took off his pajamas and changed into school uniform. He stood in front of the mirror and pulled the knotted tie hard.

"Well, preparations are complete."

He nodded with satisfaction at the image in the mirror, and pulled his lips together again to form a smile.

"Let's start a new day."

Dong dong dong

The sound of footsteps coming down the stairs quickly was heard, and the family was sitting together warmly in the restaurant downstairs.

"Hiroshi is here, come in and have breakfast."

"Okay, Mom."

He smiled and nodded to his mother. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Haoshu always felt that his family's eyes were inexplicably focused on him today.

"Why are you looking at me?"

He twisted his body awkwardly and asked in confusion.

"Brother, you don't seem to be acting strange today. You should say you're quite normal."

Hinata looked at Hiroki oddly and whispered.

"Was I weird before?"

His Adam's apple rolled and Hiroshi asked with his eyes wide open.

"It's not yesterday. Yesterday's brother was weird."

Liuli on the side chimed in.

"Hmm."

As Liuli explained, everyone else at the table nodded in agreement.

This is the same problem just now. Although you said so, I still can't understand it.

"Strange? What a strange method?"

While asking the question in confusion, he pulled out a stool and sat down. Today's breakfast was rice with saury and miso soup.

Well, it looks like it should taste good. I started eating while waiting for Liuli's reply.

"How should I put it, brother's behavior yesterday was not like brother, brother," Liuli said with a hint of hesitation, "it was like another person, like a..."

"Like a girl." Zhu Xi said loudly with a snotty nose.

"Huh? But how come I didn't know? Why don't I have any impression of it at all?" He looked up at the other people at the table in confusion. There was a seriousness in their eyes, and they didn't seem to be lying. So, was it really true?

"So, what exactly happened?"

He complained softly, took a few bites of food from the bowl, and stood up from his seat.

"I'm stuffed"

Hiroshi picked up his schoolbag and waved goodbye to his family.

"Hey, is this all you've eaten?"

"Ah."

He smiled and nodded in response to his sister's doubts, then stood at the entrance to put on his shoes.

"Well, I'm going out first."

Turning around and opening the door of the apartment, he wouldn't say that he couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere.

What exactly is the situation?

Why do they look at me so strangely?

With this strange feeling, I walked out of the house.

The morning breeze and familiar scenery blowing in your face.

Leaving the small home and entering another world.

The sense of vastness that suddenly unfolds in the field of vision, the feeling that the sun suddenly becomes dazzling for no apparent reason, the familiar scenery that can be seen suddenly unfolds with the shadows, the changes in light and shadow, the transition from darkness to light, the scattering of light and other feelings penetrate into the eyes.

The clear sky was as beautiful as a baptism of azure water. Thousands of cars carrying hundreds of people and trains carrying thousands flowed through the streets.

This was a familiar scene to him, but for some reason he felt an inexplicable palpitation.

Before he knew it, Hiroshi was standing by the handrail, gazing at the street as usual.

Trying to lock someone, only someone.

It was a street with cherry blossoms covering the hillsides in spring, where a familiar figure whose name I didn't know had met me before.

who are you?

What is your name?

The temperature here has changed a lot recently. It is already late autumn without us noticing. Everyone please take care of yourselves. This is the author Totoro, who is typing with a high fever.

Chapter 58: Traces Left by Hiroki Gogen

The weather is sunny, birds are singing and flowers are blooming. This is a country town completely different from the noisy city. The people living in this small town are all caring old people.

There are no famous mountains or rivers worth mentioning, nor any eye-catching specialties.

As for a small town deep in the mountains, one where chickens and dogs can hear each other and neighbors live in harmony is probably the most appropriate image.

Walking on the street, you can clearly feel the heartwarming atmosphere of this quaint town.

Work from sunrise to sunset, this is a peaceful place with a slow pace of life.

"Michiru, it's time to get up. If you don't get up now, you'll be late."

The mother's gentle call woke the sleeping girl.

"Well"

He murmured drowsily, burying his face in the soft pillow, muffled sounds coming out of it.

"Five more minutes of sleep"

"No, don't sleep any more. This is your fourth five-minute sleep. You're already so old, why can't you be more sensible? Mom will be very troubled if you continue like this. You were so good yesterday and got up, why are you back to your old ways today?"

As mentioned above, Mrs. Bingtang is a very gentle person. No matter how much her daughter stays in bed, she will only ask in a soft voice.

Of course, if you ask for too much, it will become nagging.

As expected, the girl got up from the bed slowly as usual. Perhaps it was influenced by the atmosphere of the small town. The people here have surprisingly good tempers and are very lazy. Well, they are really lazy.

"Really? I've told you so many times that you should button up your pajamas even when you're sleeping at home."

The daughter in front of me was so lazy that she didn't even bother to button her clothes, exposing a large area of ​​white chest. The clothes originally had a row of buttons, but only one button was struggling to support the girl's well-developed body.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

At this moment, Michiru waved her hand carelessly and smiled indifferently.

"We're at home anyway, no one will see us."

Mrs. Bingtang was troubled by her daughter's carelessness and sighed softly.

"I've already told you that you're an adult now and you're going to enter society. Girls need to learn to take care of themselves."

Although what he said made sense, Michiru, who had heard it no less than a hundred times, had already ignored it and said with a smile.

"It's not like you can't go home just because you've entered society. It's so nice for you to stay home with mom so she doesn't get lonely."

Mrs. Bingtang glared at her daughter in annoyance at her twisted logic.

"Mom will get old one day too. What will you do when I am old and can no longer take care of you?"

Hearing her mother about to start another endless speech, Michiru walked forward, hugged her mother's arm affectionately, and used her coquettish tactics.

"You'll definitely be married by then, so why not find a husband who'll take care of you? Mom, don't worry about me. I need to change now and I'll be in the breakfast room later."

He pushed and shoved with a smile, then closed the door with a wave of his hand.

The room returned to silence again. Michiru sat softly on the ground, leaning lightly against the wooden door.

"Getting married?"

The delicate and soft lips gently uttered this blushing and heart-pounding word, and then buried her head in her legs.

"I wouldn't think so much!"

He jumped up from the ground like a spring, put his hands on his hips and shouted into the air.

"Anyway, the most important thing right now is to live happily every day. Daily life is the best!"

but

Before that, you still have to study hard.

She lowered her head dejectedly, walked to the mirror and tied her hair up.

The button that had been sticking to its mission finally lost its position, and the pajamas slipped off the crystal smooth skin and fell to the ground.

She stretched out her hands to put on the summer school uniform, then lowered her head to tidy up her bangs and nodded with satisfaction.

"I'm ready to go!"

He happily picked up the schoolbag on the desk, went downstairs excitedly, picked up the lunch box prepared by his mother from the table, picked up a piece of bread on the table and ran out.

Mrs. Bingtang, who was carrying fried eggs, just came out of the kitchen and saw her leaving.

"Hey Michiru! At least have a good breakfast."

Michiru stopped jogging upon hearing the call and spoke while standing still.

"Well, bread is enough. I'm going to be late, so I'll leave now."

After saying that, he disappeared like a rabbit, leaving his mother with a helpless look on her face.

"This child was so well behaved yesterday. I thought she had changed, but she couldn't hold on for just one day and went back to her old ways."

The person is no longer there, leaving only empty sighs.

Michiru ran out of the house. Her home was near the town center. She had to pass through the town's shopping street to go to school. Because it was in the countryside, the land price was cheap and the planning was convenient. However, the designer widened the road of the shopping street a lot and planted cherry trees on both sides. Although the season for cherry blossoms to fall has long passed, the lush scenery in the early morning always makes people feel good.

"Hey, isn't this the child of the Bingtang family? He's still so energetic."

A tall and thin old man came out from a nearby grocery store. When he saw Michiru running towards him from a distance, he smiled and greeted her.

"Good morning, Grandpa Natsuki. You seem to be in the same spirit today."

Michiru smiled and greeted the old man. She was very respectful to the elderly.
