Chapter 410 Sakakibara chooses to take the initiative to get out of the haze
Two days later, school.
Sunday ended and today was Monday. After repeated discussions with Tianhai Qimingyue, Tianhai Jiuliuli and Tianhai Qimingyue decided to go to school as usual.
It's just that I selectively avoid someone in school.
But it wasn't until the two of them arrived at school that they learned from Teacher Dokyung during the morning meeting that Sakakibara Raku and Sakakibara Suzu were taking a week off.
After class, Tianhai Jiuliuli took the initiative to find Tianhai Qimingyue to talk about the matter.
"...Where will Raku-kun and Suzu-chan go... They actually asked for a week off. It's almost the end of the term."
Although Tianhai Qimingyue was somewhat curious about someone's mysterious whereabouts, she didn't answer at all because she obviously didn't want to pay attention to that person recently.
"I have no idea."
Meanwhile...on the other side of Tokyo, Kyushu City, Kitakyushu Airport.
Wearing sunglasses, Sakakibara Raku and Sakakibara Suzu had just gotten off the plane, carrying luggage with several pieces of clothing on their backs.
Suzu Sakakihara squinted her eyes and yawned, obviously complaining due to lack of sleep:
"Really... you suddenly said you want to come to Kyushu, what are you doing here?"
As Raku Sakakibara walked out of the terminal with his sister and headed to the hotel, he used maps and mobile phones to plan the next route, and answered at the same time:
"Didn't you tell me earlier? The old man is going to send Yuki to my fourth aunt's house. Since I want to have a legitimate reason to take Yuki home, I have to investigate the matter clearly."
"What the hell..." Suzu Sakakibara held her shoulder bag with both hands, sniffing the sea breeze blowing from the Pacific Ocean in Kyushu City, "Why don't you just tell the old man that you want to marry Yuki? Isn't he happy with this?
?”
Sakakibara smashed the map on his head angrily, "I'm not sure whether the old man will be happy or not. That's not the purpose of taking Yuki home at all."
"What's that?"
"...I told you a long time ago that I need to take responsibility."
We arrived at the hotel and got a double bed suite.
Ah Ling immediately fell asleep on the big white bed.
Rakusaki Sakakibara continued to study the map.
The main purpose of this trip is to find the fourth young lady of the Tianhai family - Tianhai Ling.
Yuki is still staying in Tokyo for treatment.
It hasn't been sent over by the old man yet.
As for Amami Aya’s address—just ask her uncle.
At present, my uncle doesn't know about yuki.
Since the last time he agreed to acquiesce in his relationship with Qijiu, he has moved out with his mother and only occasionally returns to his home in Minato.
Out of sight, out of mind.
At noon, Ah Ling finished her sleep.
The two started taking action immediately.
First, dress up in disguise, put on a hat and sunglasses.
Then based on the address given by my uncle, I found a villa and apartment building near the center of Kyushu and waited there.
The two found a bush and squatted down.
I squatted for three or four hours.
Finally, five hours later, I saw Aya Amami and her son driving home.
Amami Aya's son is about seven years old.
It looks pretty cute. I still have the snacks I just bought in my hand.
Mother and son returned home hand in hand, looking particularly harmonious.
After seeing her brother take the photo with the camera, Sakakihara Suzu asked curiously: "Brother... what are we doing so sneakily? What's the use of secretly taking pictures if you come to see Fourth Aunt and don't show up directly?"
"
"Then let me ask you a question first, Aling."
"Ask me, I'm smart."
"Why was yuki sent to Fourth Aunt?"
"This is not simple. Isn't it just that the fourth aunt is the only place suitable for Yuki to stay?"
"That's right."
"But what does this have to do with you coming here? Fourth aunt and her son look very nice and harmonious. Hehe, little Shota is quite cute."
Sakakihara Raku, who was holding a camera to secretly take pictures, looked over with contempt, "You still don't understand this, I can only say that you are stupid."
"Where am I stupid!"
"clever?"
"Well! The smartest beautiful girl in the world is me."
"If you are smart, be quiet! Just help me. I didn't want to bring you here at first, but I insisted on following you."
"Tch~ Do you have any emotional intelligence? This is my sister who cares about you."
"Oh, thank you very much."
Sakakihara stopped talking and continued to concentrate on his work.
An hour later, during the leisure time after dinner in the evening, Tianhai Ling and her son walked out of the villa.
Sakakihara knew that after waiting for a day, the first opportunity came.
"A-Ling, it's your turn to perform."
"...What? What do you want me to do?"
"Going up, I accidentally bumped into that little shota."
"Huh? I won't do such an immoral thing!"
"Go back and fry the tornado potatoes for you."
"The food that came here! Don't eat it!"
“No limit~”
"The food you came here...is delicious!"
Sakakihara Suzu walked out immediately.
It should be said that he is worthy of being an idol and a person who has the image of an "angel".
Ah Ling's acting skills are very extraordinary.
At least Amami Aya didn't see any clues and really thought she bumped into her accidentally. After Sakakihara Suzu apologized quickly and said a few words with a frown, she just pretended that it didn't happen.
Sakakihara Suzu returned to the bush muttering dissatisfied.
"It's uncomfortable...I was told a few words...Brother, what's the use of taking these pictures?"
"Anyway, it's useful. I gave you a hard time just now. Okay, I've finished harvesting today. I didn't expect it to be so easy on the first day."
On the next day, the third day, and the fourth day... Sakakihara Raku and Suzu were following each other in disguise.
Shopping, going to school, walking in the park... Anyway, as long as it is life, Sakakibara Raku has picked up some materials.
Following until the last day of leave, Sakakihara Suzu still didn't understand what her brother wanted to do.
Watch from behind him in the hotel as he sorts out the photos of Amami Aya, mother and son in his camera.
"Brother, what on earth are you thinking about?"
Sakakihara Raku did not explain, but asked: "A Suzu, do you know how Yuki lived when she was a child?"
"...I don't know. But I know I don't seem to be well-received."
"Well, I'm not popular. You may not know much, but I know that yuki's sister can ignore her hunger and doesn't even bother to share the bread with her. Uncle Ying and Aunt Zi have both said that yuki
He used to be taciturn."
"Then how did you know, brother?"
"Dream."
"A dream?" Sakakihara Suzu became angry and puffed up her face, "You lied to me again."
"Why are you lying to me? In my dream, Yuki and her fourth sister were also like this. I also asked Aunt Zi for confirmation, yes. Aunt Zi heard that the old man wanted to send Zhixue to her fourth sister.
After I went there, I was surprised because this was the first time she knew about it."
"That's nonsense! I've been following them a lot this week, and I think they're a pretty good mother and son. Although she was a bit fierce the first time..."
Sakakihara Raku was silent at first and did not deny this, "It's good, but Suzu, you overlooked one point. The two are biological mother and son... There are always people in this world who are good to their children... Yuki
To them, it was more like an accident.
"Look at how fierce she was when you 'accidentally' bumped into her a few days ago."
"is a bit..."
"We photographed her son playing in the entertainment facilities in the shopping mall. Could it be that Tianhai Ling is more biased towards her son instead of making things fair and just?"
"That's right...but what's the point?"
"Although it's just a corner and cannot be completely determined, it is more or less doting."
Sakakihara Suzu was confused: "I still don't understand the use..."
"It's just a hand card. It must be useful."
"Oh, then we will go back tomorrow?"
"Well, I'm back." Raku Sakakihara put down the camera, raised his hands and stretched them, "By the way, Suzu."
"What?"
"Am I a little mentally exhausted lately?"
"Why do you say that?"
"There are always some strange noises heard in this hotel at night, and they always come from your side."
Sakakihara Suzu was silent for a moment, and then burst into laughter:
"Illusion, it must be my brother. You have to deal with Sister Qiyue, Sister Liuli and Sister Zhixue every day. You are so tired! Hahaha~"
"Too."
*
One week after Tianhai Qimingyue and Tianhai Jiuliuli left home, it was June 10th.
The rainy season has come to an end.
But for Tianhai Zhixue, in Tianhai Zhixue's sight.
Sky.
It's always been gray.
On the hospital bed, Tianhai Zhixue put her hands on the cold window, and through the hazy rain curtain, she saw two figures, one large and one small, on the sidewalk outside the hospital.
She saw a young mother holding a little girl tightly.
The little girl's hair was scattered in the rain like a waterfall. The two of them had no umbrellas, and the mother used her palms and arms to cover her daughter's hair in her arms to shield her from the rain. She ran anxiously and soon disappeared...
His eyes followed the two figures as they disappeared from sight.
The girl, who wore an elastic band on her head after surgery, lowered her face in front of the window.
She always dreams about those childhoods when her mother was not ignored or disliked, and her mother was still alive. Her childhood was half gray and half colorful, and her mother's figure remained among these colors. She held her hand and smiled.
Let's go on picnics with ourselves, attend kindergarten and elementary school graduation ceremonies together... walk through the streets and alleys of the years together...
The mother's profile was blurry, but her hands and heart...were very warm.
As if I really had a mother...
Tianhai Zhixue looked out the window again where the figure disappeared.
The rain is pouring down.
The girl is thinking...having a family that can always be together...must be very happy, right?
...
Dong Dong.
There was a knock on the ward door.
The next person who came in was Uncle Ying, who came to visit him every day...
Ying Bo is a very nice person.
I've been visiting myself frequently recently.
It's just that today, he seemed to have a deep sense of contentment on his face, and he even bent down.
"Ms. Zhixue... I'm sorry, the master can't come to visit you today... He needs to go abroad to talk about some things and won't come back until later... The operation just ended the day before yesterday, and you just woke up this afternoon...
I just went to see the doctor in charge of you, and the doctor said that you urgently need treatment in a normal environment...that is to say, you need to go to Miss Fourth's home as soon as possible."
"What about...Le?"
"Miss Zhixue, the master should have said before that the young master still has his own life and will not come... Didn't you also agree to go to the fourth miss's house?"
Tianhai Zhixue, who had an elastic band tied around her head and had much less hair, lowered her face again when she heard these words.
"Miss."
"..."
"Miss?"
well...
Sakura Guizhong saw Miss Zhixue looking like this.
It's really distressing.
It was hard for Ying Guizhong to imagine that this was the same person as Miss Zhixue three weeks ago.
After the surgery...will the changes be that big?
Regarding this point, Ying Guizhong just asked Zhixue's attending physician a question: "Can emotions really affect the condition in this way?".
The doctor who was extremely knowledgeable and experienced and had received a doctorate from Tokyo University decades ago also had a very clear answer:
"meeting."
And gave a detailed explanation:
"Although emotion itself is not a direct cause of the disease, it can have an impact on the progression and symptoms of the disease. Changes in emotion, anxiety, depression, stress, etc., can all cause physiological changes in the body - such as decreased immune system function and increased blood pressure.
Decreased sleep quality is included in this list. These physiological changes will affect the body's self-healing ability and interfere with the treatment and recovery process of the disease.
"The patient was born with hypoplasia, which led to a certain degree of malformation in her brain development. At this point, modern medicine cannot completely cure this congenital defect. It can only stabilize the symptoms through drugs and replace the lack of substances.
Or hormones... The patient may recover on his own, or his emotions may lead to pheromone disorder in the brain, aggravating the condition.
"The patient's current situation is the latter. As for whether the neural tube malformation suddenly discovered during the examination the day before yesterday was affected by emotions... we can't clarify the relationship. Maybe it is, or maybe it's just a coincidence."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!......
Now look at Tianhai Zhixue's expressionless face.
Ying Guizhong couldn't help but ask: "Miss... don't want to go to the fourth lady's house?"
Tianhai Zhixue still looked out the window, "Didn't Uncle Ying say that I agreed to go..."
"Then...what do you think now?"
"..."
Tianhai Zhixue lowered his head, thought for a long time, and then shook his head.
"I don't know...don't remember..."
"Sister Zi, who came to accompany you for surgery a few days ago, do you still remember her? She was taking care of you yesterday and this morning."
Tianhai Zhixue has no impression at all: "...I don't remember."
...Miss forgot again.
I used to forget things every once in a while, but now I can't even remember what happened the day before yesterday.
If you forget too much, you may not be able to live a normal life in the future.
It’s not even clear what will happen if Miss Zhixue is fostered in Miss Fourth’s home...
"Uncle Ying."
Tianhai Zhixue's expression suddenly returned to normal, becoming innocent and simple.
"I'm here, miss."
Amami Zhixue blinked: "Will Le come to take me home? I haven't seen him for a long time, and Suzu-chan... promised to come and visit me."
"..."
The memory of Tianhai Zhixue is like a hemp rope, making it difficult for Ying Guizhong to answer.
This is almost no longer amnesia.
Already on the verge of going insane.
Sakura Guizhong suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.
Just at this moment, the cell phone rang. He suddenly took out the cell phone in his coat. After discovering that it was a cross-border call from his master from abroad, he quickly stood up and stood in front of the window to answer the call.
"master."
Amkai Soichiro's voice was very brief: "How is Yuki?"
"Not too optimistic..."
"what happened?"
"The doctor said that we must find a normal environment to recuperate, otherwise the treated condition will only relapse...Amnesia is a trivial matter, and I have already seen the signs."
"Neural tube defect?"
"Yes... Sir, you don't sound surprised?"
"...This is not the first time. She has been corrected before, but now she is afraid that it has relapsed with her amnesia. Has she forgotten that bastard?"
Ying Guizhong knew that the master was talking about the young master.
He sighed slightly and said:
"No...just now Miss Zhixue even asked me when the young master can take her home. Only when talking about the young master, Miss Zhixue can be normal...otherwise she just keeps looking out the window, what?
I don’t even want to eat it.”
This time, there was longer silence on the other end of the phone.
"Sir...Miss Zhixue's condition seems to be getting worse and worse."
"I...understand. I will try my best to resolve the matter as quickly as possible and go back. Guizhong, please stay here with her first and don't let her run out alone."
"Understood, sir."
After hanging up the phone, Ying Guizhong looked away.
He was thinking about Miss Zhixue in his mind, and he was also thinking about whether it was really wrong for the master to force Miss Zhixue to go home and cause the current situation...
"Eh..."
He sighed and turned back.
But he froze in place.
Because suddenly there was another person in front of me——Sakakibara Raku.
Raku Sakakibara didn't know when he sat beside Amami Nozuki's bed, with the folded umbrella at his feet, as if he had just come here, and there were still some raindrops on his shoulders.
"Little, young master?"
"Well, Uncle Ying, don't be surprised, I just came here just now."
"happy!"
As soon as Tianhai Zhixue saw him, she stepped forward and gave him a hug, "You're here."
"Well, I'm here. Sorry, I've been collecting information these days."
After not seeing each other for a long time, Sakakihara smiled and hugged her, while frowning and observing the elastic band on her head, "Why are you wearing this? Why is a piece of hair missing?"
"I had surgery." Tianhai Zhixue put her hands on his chest.
"Surgery? Isn't it a minor illness?"
"...I have no idea."
"Does it hurt?"
"My head is dizzy."
"It must hurt..." Sakakihara couldn't bear to look at the way her long hair was missing.
"Le, when will we go home?"
Only then did Ying Guizhong react and interjected: "Young Master... why are you here?"
"I followed here."
Sakakibara turned around and smiled and replied to Sakura Takatada, "I didn't expect grandpa to specially change the ward for Zhiyuki. In fact, it's completely unnecessary, right?"
"..."
Ying Guizhong was not easy to answer, but asked curiously: "Young master, how come... you are coming back?"
"It's very simple. I want to take Zhixue home... I know Uncle Ying wants to ask me the reason for coming back, but before that, I want to ask Uncle Ying, what's going on with Zhixue's illness now?"
"..."
Although I really want to follow the master's wishes and refuse to answer the young master.
You can see how happy Miss Zhixue was after seeing him.
Suddenly I no longer wanted to refuse.
He informed Tianhai Zhixue of its current situation in detail.
After listening to this, Sakakihara fell silent, "It's my fault."
"..."
Sakura Guizhong is not easy to talk to.
According to the truth, the cause of this incident was that the master wanted Miss Zhixue to go home...
The young master and the two young ladies argued with the master, and then Miss Zhixue felt that she had made a few people feel embarrassed, so she took the initiative to leave with the master...
Because of the master's thoughts, Miss Zhixue's feelings were frustrated at an accelerated pace...
"happy."
Raku Sakakihara turned to Amami Yuki and smiled, "I'm here."
"I miss you so much."
"I haven't seen you for a long time, right?"
"Well! I've been looking at the road outside, wondering when Le would pass by there... As long as I see Le, I'll be very happy."
"I'm sorry, Zhixue, I haven't been able to see you these days."
"It's okay...as long as Le Le comes to see me, I'm very happy."
yuki ah...
Sometimes her mood is so pure that people can't bear to destroy it...
"By the way, yuki, I brought you flowers last time. This time I brought you a small gift."
Sakakibara Raku said, taking out a small Puppy Cat doll from behind and handing it to Amami Yuki, "Take it."
Sakakihara Raku knew that little yuki liked cats.
So after seeing Sakakibara Raku bringing her a small gift, she took the doll in her hand and stared at it blankly for a while.
"well......"
Sakakihara laughed: "Does it look good?"
"So ugly——"
"..."
"It's just a gift from Le, so it's not ugly."
"What a stupid girl. Ugly is just ugly." Raku Sakakihara touched the long hair on her back, "Also, why did you secretly get so seriously ill behind my back?"
"...sorry."
As soon as she lowered her voice, Sakakihara couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
This child has been blaming himself.
"What are you apologizing for? I mean you should be happy normally. Get better soon and we will be discharged from the hospital soon. Do you want to go to McDonald's?"
Amami Nozuki held the doll she had just received in her hand. As soon as she heard this, she looked straight at Sakakihara Raku: "...can I go?"
"If you are happy, then I will go with you."
"Le said."
"Yeah, that's what I said."
"...But, but if this is the case...it will trouble Le again...Le, I am very useless, I am always sick...I always forget things, and I have never been able to make anything for Le.
Nothing... can make Le happy."
"It doesn't have to be like this, yuki," Sakakibara said with moving eyes, soothing her petite back, "I'm very happy if someone is willing to accompany me... Don't you always like me to accompany you? Even if I don't do anything,
You are happy too, right?"
Tianhai Zhixue looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "...Hmm."
"So, even if Yuki doesn't do anything and stays by my side, I'll be quite happy."
"...Really?"
"I don't want to lie to you, yuki."
"Well, I believe it."
"How about a smile? Don't always have no expression, just like Qi Qi."
Tianhai Zhixue tried to curl up the corners of her mouth with a half-smile.
You can tell she works hard.
Sakakihara smiled happily and reached out to touch her head.
Tianhai Zhixue really liked him, and after being touched on the head, her mood seemed to relax a lot.
...
Sakura Guizhong was filled with emotions when he saw this scene in front of him.
Before the young master came.
Miss Zhixue has never been happy.
always like this.
When the young master comes, he brings a small gift... a few words will make her happy.
From a few simple exchanges, it seems that the huge emotions between the two people can be seen.
Master... you can't do this at all.
Ying Guizhong even had an additional thought in his mind - Miss Zhixue is following the young master... It's really good.
Raku Sakakibara touched an area behind Amami Nozuki's head where the hair had been completely shaved off, and held his fingers above it for a moment... and then put it down.
"Uncle Ying, I want to take Zhixue back."
"...Can I ask the young master why?"
"Uncle Ying also mentioned Zhixue's symptoms just now. Obviously, I need to bear most of the responsibility for this matter."
"...Young master, you don't need to say that."
Sakakihara shook his head and continued: "Since I caused trouble in this matter, I also need to bear the corresponding responsibility. If I just run away without doing anything, what does it mean?"
Ying Guizhong couldn't help but remind: "Young Master, you have to understand that the key to Miss Zhixue's matter lies in how to deal with the relationship between you, Miss Zhixue, and the young lady. I think what the master said is right.
There is nothing wrong. If you let Miss Zhixue stay by your side, then——"
"Who said that?" Raku Sakakihara took one of Amami Noyuki's hands and saw several needle holes on the back of her hand.
"...?"
Sakakihara turned his head: "Uncle Sakura, who said this?"
"It's Master."
"Yes, it's grandpa. But Uncle Ying, is grandpa Zhixue?"
"..."
Ying Guizhong understood that the subtext of the young master's words was actually saying what the master meant and could not represent Miss Zhixue's meaning.
Sakakibara looked at Amami Nozuki who was watching the lying cat on the left and right: "Grandpa must know about the worsening of Yuzuki's condition."
Sakura Takatada instantly understood what Sakakihara Raku meant: "Young Master, are you sure...? If Young Master appears again, I might be furious."
Raku Sakakihara shook his head calmly and scraped the back of Amami Zuki's delicate hand with his thumb, "It's okay. If grandpa really wants to be good for Yuki, he must also think about how to prevent Zhiyuki's condition from getting worse."
