Tomorrow is the last day of the school trip, and Yuuya probably realized that once the school trip ends, neither Qiong nor himself will be the same as before.
【Are there any plans for free time tomorrow?】
"not yet."
【So, will you go shopping with me for a day tomorrow?】
"..." Chen Xiaofeng did not answer immediately, but became silent.
【Is it better with Xiaoqiong? 】
"No……"
【Then...are you unwilling?】
"It's not that...it's just that Misaka talked to me a lot last night, and I was wondering if I should..."
【That's right...】
"...What I said, Yu, can you understand?"
【...Have you thought it through?】
"Well... I think it's time. Even Minato dislikes me with this kind of personality... So, I think I should seriously think about the future and then think about it seriously."
【Thanks.】
"I should be the one to say thank you."
【Yes.】
Yu drew a smiling face at the end of the sentence. Although it wasn't as good as Qiong's drawing, it still replaced her current mood as she couldn't show her expression.
Then, You took out a box of snacks from the bag on his seat and handed it to Chen Xiaofeng. The box said "Hokkaido Kobe Beef Jerky".
It's meat~ Let's eat one... Although it's time to relax during a school trip, Chen Xiaofeng's nerves have been tense these past few days, which makes him tasteless.
Fortunately, it is Kobe beef jerky from Hokkaido. It is not as difficult to chew as other beef jerky. As soon as you take it into your mouth, the soft and pine flavor spreads in your mouth.
[When Aini came to our room yesterday, she gave us a lot.] Even if you didn’t see it with your own eyes, you can still imagine Aini’s expression when she distributed the beef jerky.
Chen Xiaofeng, who thought the scene was funny, couldn't help laughing, and Yu also drew a smiling face on the paper.
Half an hour later, the bus arrived at the hotel in Hakodate ten minutes earlier than scheduled.
Put your luggage in the room first, then it's time for lunch.
Since he had eaten a lot of beef jerky before, Chen Xiaofeng had hastily settled lunch. The afternoon was free time.
There are no plans for this afternoon. Qiong and Yu are still thinking about things. Aini and the others will probably take Minato out together, so they can spend this afternoon with Yang Ping. Chen Xiaofeng thought about it and left Yang Ping in the hotel for several days.
, as a roommate and almost a team member, Chen Xiaofeng felt very embarrassed.
I plan to go back to the room first and wait for Hinata to finish his meal.
However, on the corridor leading to the room, the blond and blue-eyed girl with a royal demeanor appeared.
Artoria.
"Xiao...Xiao Feng."
The unnaturalness of this title made Chen Xiaofeng tremble in his heart, but Chen Xiaofeng knew that he should not waver anymore. Now that he has decided, he should not continue like this.
"Lily..."
"I heard Misaka tell me about Xiaofeng."
"Um...you...what are you going to do...?"
"Um?"
"……sorry."
"There is no need for Xiaofeng to apologize."
"but……"
"Xiao Feng did nothing wrong. Indecisiveness is Xiao Feng's weakness. Xiao Feng can now make up his mind to change this. As Xiao Feng's hero, I feel very proud. This also proves that I follow a very outstanding king."
"A king...that's really an exaggeration."
"Xiao Feng is my sheath, and I am Xiao Feng's sword... Xiao Feng, no matter what decision you make, I will always be Xiao Feng's sword. No one can call you your strength except me."
Chen Xiaofeng was speechless.
"I heard Misaka say that you have 'that person' in your heart... But I know, Xiaofeng, you are still hesitant. It's like a fish and a bear's paw, right?"
"Um……"
"Then...if Xiaofeng still doesn't understand your own feelings in the end...I hope you can..."
Arturia slowly approached Chen Xiaofeng, then picked up his hand and placed it on his chest.
"I hope you can ask your heart."
…
The evening activity of the school trip is to take a bus towards Mount Hakodate in order to enjoy the famous night view of Hakodate.
It was past eight o'clock in the evening.
The bus moved around the mountain. When it reached the mountainside, cheers came from the front seat of the bus, and among the dense woods, the night view of Hakodate appeared.
Unfortunately, the view from Chen Xiaofeng's seat was not very clear, because the scene was obscured by numerous trees.
Fortunately, after a few minutes, the bus arrived at the parking lot of the observatory.
"Okay, classmates, it's time for free activities."
Under Teacher Xiaomeng's announcement, everyone got out of the bus happily. As agreed, Chen Xiaofeng and You walked towards the observatory together, walked up a few steps, and climbed to the highest point, where the obstacles obstructed the night view.
Just disappeared.
"It's really, really incredible."
Chen Xiaofeng sighed subconsciously.
The road shines like it is inlaid with gems. No, this is definitely not a road. This is a pair of arms that want to embrace the night sky. Like a magnificent picture scroll, the ground and the night sky extend infinitely.
A feeling of excitement and excitement rushed up from Chen Xiaofeng's heart, and all worries were swept away.
The night view of Hakodate is amazing. I have heard about it before, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I couldn't describe it in words. Such an exciting and charming scene made Chen Xiaofeng tremble all over.
Touched exclamations can be heard from everywhere on the observation deck.
It would be nice if there were fewer people coming. Because today's school trip to Mount Hakodate was not only from Changshouji but also one school, so at this moment it felt like there was no place to stay on the observation deck.
The booths that seemed to be very good were already occupied, and it seemed like they couldn't even move.
"Yu, are you okay?"
Concerned about the situation around him, Chen Xiaofeng turned his head.
However, at this time, Yu could no longer be seen.
He wanted to go to a slightly higher place to look for it, but because of the crowd, it was almost impossible to find such a place. Moreover, if he stood still and waited, it would also hinder the movement of others. In desperation, Chen Xiaofeng had to move with the crowd.
Following the crowd, they came to a place slightly lower than the observatory. Here, Chen Xiaofeng found a girl who was at a loss over there, so Chen Xiaofeng felt that he should rush over.
We walked back the way we came, back to the parking lot, and then walked around the parking lot to the other side of Mount Hakodate. Although the angle was not very good, we could still see the night view.
The girl is still there.
"Little Qiong."
Qiong, who put his hands on the railing, slowly turned around.
"You really found a good place."
This is a place where you can enjoy the night view with peace of mind.
"kindness."
Qiong nodded slightly and never took his eyes away from Chen Xiaofeng who was approaching.
