Chapter 411 Birds and the passing night

The roof of the guild hall is an open rooftop. The iron door looks very new, but it has a lot of dust. It seems that few people have set foot here. The door is ajar at the moment, and a small clean mark has been wiped on the door handle.

.

Pushing open the door, the field of view suddenly becomes wider. Late at night and early in the morning, in the deep night in the distance, the lights of the city merge into a bright but empty sea.

The girl was hiding on the side of the staircase building.

When the door was pushed open, the creaking sound made her heart beat several times faster, followed by a small complaint of "No one is there, I just heard footsteps."

The girl squatted on the ground, her little head buried deeply in her arms, praying for the other person to leave quickly.

Not long after, the iron door closed again. The girl waited for more than ten seconds to confirm that there was no other movement before raising her head. She raised her neck and stared at the deep and endless night sky above her head, feeling a little lost for no reason.

Do I want to be found? she thought.

Since what happened at Fuji-Qiu, she likes to be alone more and more.

Even in a busy lounge, I would habitually find a corner where I would not be disturbed and sit quietly. I would quietly watch the conversations among the people, and occasionally I would find my own reflection acting willfully and coquettishly among them.

Sometimes my mother would sigh, "Asuka has matured a lot too." It turns out that people really do grow up quickly overnight and their personalities change drastically.

She breathed out a breath of white mist, and watched the white mist being soaked by the night and finally disappearing, and her mood became even more gloomy.

It's time to go back.

She stood up slowly, rubbed her frozen fingers and walked towards the entrance of the stairs. However, the moment her fingers touched the door handle, she was caught off guard by a sudden sound beside her.

"So it's you here, Asuka."

Little Asuka knew who the voice was without turning around. Her heartbeat was almost frozen, but she gritted her teeth and turned the handle indifferently, planning to leave just like that.

"Asuka, why do you run away when you see me?"

Who would have thought that Wu Geng would take the lead and put his hand on the back of Feiniao's hand, which was holding the handle, but he was unwilling to let her leave safely.

Wugeng's hands were also cold, but Xiao Feiniao's body temperature suddenly rose a few degrees, as if he had been burned, he retracted his arms, frowned, and glared at the culprit who looked innocent in front of him.

"What are you doing!"

"Asuka, are you angry?"

"Of course, if you stop me and don't let me go back, anyone will be angry."

"No, that's not what I'm talking about," Wu Geng shook his head, leaned a little closer, and his voice was much gentler, "Are you still angry about that time in Fuji's emergency?"

When she mentioned this, Xiao Feiniao suddenly felt a suffocation in her chest that she couldn't spit out or swallow. However, it must not happen here, otherwise it would appear that she, Feiniao, is still concerned about this matter.

Seeing Wu Geng blocking the door, with no intention of getting out of the way, Xiao Feiniao pushed away a few steps and distanced herself. Being too close to Wu Geng made her emotional easily. However, she didn't expect that as she retreated

, on the fifth watch, I took a few steps forward.

Do you think this is dancing? Xiao Feiniao felt a little angry again.

But after all, she has matured a lot and successfully suppressed the little emotions in her heart: "No, this kind of thing can't be forced. Frankly speaking, after talking about it, I felt much more relaxed."

Xiao Feiniao felt a little complacent in her heart. This answer did not deny it sincerely like the little girl, but also faintly revealed the freedom and relief that the previous things were in the past tense and have now been put aside. Of course, such an attitude,

Only she knows the elements of being a bit brave.

Wu Geng pursed his lips, feeling a little frustrated because he didn't hear the answer he wanted.

"Then why have you been avoiding me, Asuka?"

"How could I avoid you?"

"You just saw me down there and you hurried up, right?"

This little thought was exposed, and Xiao Feiniao was a little panicked, "No, I have been staying on the rooftop to watch the stars."

"Star?"

Looking up at midnight, all that can be seen in the deep night sky is the bright moon hanging high and the looming North Star. As an international metropolis, Tokyo has a lot of light pollution. Where can you see it so easily in the countryside?

Star.

"My eyesight is better..." Xiao Feiniao continued to talk harshly.

"Where are Gemini, Taurus, Cancer and Leo? Point it out to me."

"Here, here...here, and here."

"You can point to the four constellations just mentioned in reverse."

"Leo...is...is...here?"

Looking at Wu Geng's expression of covering his mouth and suppressing laughter, Xiao Feiniao finally couldn't help it anymore and threw his hand angrily: "You stinky Wu Geng, you are trying to trick me on purpose!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he opened his eyes slightly as if he noticed something.

"I finally said it. It's the first time since Fujikyu," Wu Geng smiled, "call me 'stinky Wu Geng'."

Xiao Feiniao felt as if she had been hit in the weak point for a moment, her nose felt sore, she opened her mouth, and her little hands that were shrunk in her down jacket clenched tightly into fists.

Why?

Why do you come over to me after I've avoided you like that? Don't you like me? Then don't talk to me. It's because you're always like this that I misunderstood you... I thought I could do it myself, at least

...At least I can always stay by your side...

"You heard wrong!" She turned around in a hurry, no longer looking at the fifth watch. She was afraid that she would accidentally expose her weakness and fear of loneliness.

"How could I hear it wrong? My hearing is very good, at least my eyesight is better than that of a bird."

Feiniao sniffed and changed the subject in a muffled voice: "What are you doing here at five o'clock?"

"What about you, Asuka? Everyone is in the lounge. Nanxiang-san said that we will leave soon, and the barbecue restaurant has been booked."

"I...I want to come out and get some air."

"Oh..." Wu Geng nodded, "So it's not about looking at the stars."

"..."

Wu Geng smiled and stepped forward, walked to Asuka, and looked up at the thick sky. Most of the stars were hiding behind the clouds because they were shy.

"When you look at the night sky like this, don't you think of a song?"

"What?"

""Foretold Romance"."

Xiao Feiniao was silent and didn't reply. When the MV for the song of the constellation was being filmed, their relationship was not as complicated as it is now.

——Among the gleaming twelve constellations, there is your and my destiny. Even if we cannot see it now, we will be attracted to each other because of that power.

Is it because Virgo’s Five Watches and Leo’s Birds are not compatible?

However, they could obviously get along happily before.

Xiao Feiniao hated herself for being so sentimental. After a few months of cooling off, she only had time to cover her heart with a thin layer of ice crystals, and most of it melted as soon as she got closer at five o'clock.

She shook her head and pursed her lips, not wanting to stay around Wu Geng any longer and continue to torture herself.

"I'm going back."

But when he turned around, Wu Geng grabbed his right hand violently. He subconsciously retracted it, but this time he failed.

Just when the little bird was confused and flustered, Wu Geng looked at her slyly, her eyes so bright and sparkling. It seemed that all the stars that had never appeared in the night sky were hiding in her pupils.
