Chapter 421 Quietly, the Seven Bright Moons of Tianhai squat by the bay
Kanbaru Suzu felt that her brother was a little too ridiculous.
How could he tell his father-in-law about his smacking of legs?
Although he’s not the real father-in-law yet, he’s almost there... If I dare to tell Zhixue’s story, isn’t that asking for death?!
...This matter was really difficult to accept. Kanbaru Suzuchi was stunned for a long time before slowly speaking.
"...Brother, did he really say that? Then...then, uncle...haha, uncle, what do you think...?"
Kanbaru Suzu didn't know if there was something wrong with her head.
She actually felt that her uncle's tone on the phone was so calm that he was completely lifeless!
How can you not be angry when something like this happens?
Brother, she can be regarded as the daughter of an uncle who broke her legs...
Sure enough, after he asked this question, his uncle remained silent for a long time.
[Not too surprising.]
"Huh...?!" Kanbaru Suzu was extremely surprised.
[Ling, I had a vague idea of Zhixue's thoughts long before Xiaole confessed to me. Regarding Zhixue... I can clearly say that the current situation is not only your grandfather's fault, but also mine.
part of the responsibility.]
"...?" Kanbaru Suzu couldn't figure it out even more. Can this be blamed on her uncle? Isn't he a scumbag?
[The matter of treating Zhixue is a long story. Xiaole and I have told it. But it’s actually not that complicated...
[The Tianhai family has always been indebted to Yu Zhixue.
[She was born in the Tianhai family, but suffered prejudice from her family because of her mother's death. She was born with a defect, and was not valued by the Tianhai family. Even her father did not value her existence in the past.]
"..."
Kanbaru Suzu listened quietly, holding her cell phone, and glanced at Tenkai Nozuki who was staring blankly at the ceiling in the rest area.
[I was in the UK when Zhixue was born, not long after Liuli and Qiyue were born. During those ten years or so, your grandfather and I had conflicts and had no contact with the family, so I only knew about the news that my mother died in childbirth.
[I remember the first time I met Zhixue. It was the first time I met the old man after I returned to Japan after many years... I just came out of his study. It was midnight, and Zhixue appeared barefoot.
On the carpet in the corridor outside the study.
[I stopped and she stopped too, looking straight at me.
[I didn’t know her at the time, so I thought she was a child from a visiting family, so I asked her who she was and why she was still here so late.
[Zhixue looked like something was wrong at first glance. Faced with my inquiry, she just said blankly that she was hungry and came out to look for something to eat.
[I had important things to do at that time, so I didn’t pay much attention to her. I just told her a direction and watched her leave in front of my eyes. I walked out of the hall and came to the door. At this time, your uncle Ying had already opened the car for me.
When I got to the door, I took the opportunity to ask which family the girl I met just now was from.
[Your Uncle Ying looked at me with an indescribable expression, and then tactfully conveyed to me that that is my youngest sister, who is already ten years old.]
The uncle stopped here.
Even though there was no special tone, when Kanbaru Suzu heard it, she felt like her uncle was mocking himself.
This is not difficult to understand at all, his uncle is Zhixue’s only brother.
However, as a brother who is related by blood, he has never said a word to his sister, and he doesn't even recognize her.
[Later, out of curiosity about this sister I have never seen for ten years, I asked you, Uncle Ying, to find out about her situation... The more I got to know her, the more I felt how ruthless your grandfather was. It has been more than ten years since I arrived.
Only now did I remember that Zhixue was his daughter.
[She has nothing, no classmates, no friends, no one she knows, not even real family.
[The family also knew that the old man did not like Zhixue, so they would not mention her existence in front of him.
[For more than ten years, she seems to have been forgotten in the corner by your grandfather. Every time, your uncle Ying takes her to the hospital for routine check-ups.
[Ling, what do you think Snow like this has ever had?]
"..."
It was difficult for Kanbaru Suzu to answer, or in other words, she was unable to answer.
As the eldest daughter of the Tianhai family, Yuki can have everything, but can have nothing.
They are two extremes from when I was a child...my family had no money, but I had an older brother...but I had a mother.
If you think about it carefully, although that period was painful... it was actually quite happy...
There is a guy who makes me happy every day...
[Therefore, after Zhixue came to this house for a period of time, I vaguely sensed that she would start to rely heavily on Xiaole. Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli had proved the precedent, so it was not surprising.]
"Then what uncle thinks about my brother is——" Kanbaru Suzu was careful not to speak too fully.
But...as expected, my uncle was not without some thoughts, and seemed to be a little angry.
His tone became solemn.
[As a brother, I hope Zhixue can live a happy life.
[Similarly, as a father, I hope that my daughter can live a happy life.
[I failed to care about them, so naturally I cannot deprive them of their right to pursue happiness.
[For Qijiu, he should bear corresponding responsibilities and fulfill the responsibilities of his status. This is a fact he has promised. If he really has any unrealistic ideas, without Qi Mingyue and Jiu Liuli, I will be the first
Go find him. Under these preconditions, there is nothing wrong with giving Zhixue some love from family.]
"..."
Okay...good guy, how did you convince your uncle?
Obviously I can still feel that my uncle is angry, but it is also a suppressed anger.
There was obviously something restricting my uncle from returning from vacation immediately and giving him a slap in the face.
Kanbaru Suzu didn't know what her brother said, but she was very curious...very, very curious...
"...Uncle, uncle, my brother...did he say something special?"
[…]
[Your brother, let me and your mother try to believe him.]
"Xiang, believe him?"
[Yes, I believe in him. I believe that he can handle the relationship between several people so that everyone can have a recognized result. And he has also made a promise to us. If he fails to do so, he does not need us to deal with his affairs. He will do it himself.
Will jump into Tokyo Bay.]
...
The call with my uncle is over.
Although she failed to achieve the purpose of using her uncle to interact with several people, Kanbaru Suzu felt that she saw her brother's actions from another angle...
He said that he could handle the relationships between several people.
But in the end, how to deal with it?
Kanbaru Suzu put down her phone and stared at Amami Nozuki sitting in the rest area, puzzled.
*
The night wind in the early morning in summer is moist and cool.
Standing on the edge of Tokyo Bay, looking at the ferries with neon lights flashing on the bay, even Tianhai Qimingyue himself couldn't understand why he came to this place after school.
Welcome the sea breeze with your cheeks, and feel the vastness and prosperity of the sea and the city with your floating hair.
The reflection of the city shines on the river like glass.
...
There was movement on the phone.
You don't need to look at Tianhai Qimingyue to know that it's your sister asking where you are again.
Not only did he not attend her basketball training today, he also sneaked out while she was taking a shower without telling her in advance.
...It’s strange that my sister isn’t worried.
Speaking of which, I hardly talked to my sister today, right?
Why?
Tianhai Qimingyue thought about it in her heart, and in the end she could only blame the answer on the fact that her sister's current ideas were different from her own.
Because of the differences in ideas, Tianhai Qimingyue felt that even her sister... couldn't understand what she was feeling now.
She held up her arms, which were slightly chilled by the sea breeze, and looked at the sea surface of Tokyo Bay, watching the sightseeing boats cruising above for a while... Then, by accident, she crossed the guardrail and walked towards the edge of the bay.
The Seven Bright Moons of the Sky Sea came to the top of the embankment, squatted down, hugged their legs, lowered their heads, and looked towards the sea.
She stared at her floating reflection in the bay, at her face on the water that was blurred by the night wind, and at her face curved by the waves.
Cold...sea water?
How would it feel if you plunged headfirst into it?
In recent years, the treatment effect of Tokyo Bay has not been very good. There should be a lot of pollutants from chemical plants in the seawater, right?
Oh, if you die in there, I'm afraid your death will be ugly...
However, since death is already dead, there is no need to worry about what will happen after death.
Why should things after death be so important?
Tianhai Qimingyue squatted on the beach and gradually became quiet, but the wind kept ringing in her ears with the sound of the returning tide. She felt the wind and the movement of the sightseeing boats passing by on the bay. She didn't know what she should do.
What, what goals should we live for in the future... This kind of hard-to-see future reminded her of the way her sister was abandoned by her mother in the past.
This is probably the feeling of being abandoned by someone you trust...
"Here, take it, I just bought it."
"..."
Tianhai Qimingyue hugged her legs and turned her head in hesitation.
A guy who shouldn't be here appears at an inappropriate time.
And he sat down on the embankment, with his legs hanging outside, holding in his hand the sausage in a biodegradable plastic box...
Amami Qimingyue first looked at the object in his hand, and then looked at Kagura Raku's side face staring across the bay.
His hair was blown by the sea breeze, as if he was sighing.
"Classmate Tianhai Qi Mingyue, the scenery here is nice. How did you find this place?"
"You...why are you here?"
Kanbaru Rakuquan pretended not to hear. He placed the disposable lunch box between the two of them and continued to eat the unfinished sausage in his hand.
While he was eating and admiring the night view of the bay, he answered the wrong questions:
"Well, this should be one of those niche attractions that no one has ever discovered. No, it should be said that it feels like a 'secret base' among children. It only belongs to the two of us."
Tianhai Qimingyue hugged her legs, her expression dissatisfied, but her tone was normal, "I'm asking you a question."
"Speaking of which, is this a place we discovered together? There is sea breeze, city, neon lights, and you can also see the Linhai Bridge not far away."
"Kanahara-san."
"It's very beautiful, and it feels like a good place to rest... Wait, did I say something wrong? You are squatting here alone in Tianhai Qimingyue, doesn't that mean - "
well...
A certain person talks to himself and has a shameless attitude that leaves Tianhai Qimingyue helpless.
"Are you simply thinking too much and thinking that I will completely deny my own value because of certain things? You are wrong. I am Tianhai Qimingyue. I don't need someone, even one person, to live as a matter of course.
And live better.”
"Of course."
Kambara stood in front of the bay and nodded seriously, "You are Qimingyue. Is there anything that you can't do? Is there anything that you can't do? You are so good. You don't know how much you have learned since you were a child. What can others do?
When you are playing, you are trying to restrain yourself. When others are enjoying happiness, you are trying to improve yourself... Who can find someone as outstanding and beautiful as you?
"So Qi Mingyue-san, it doesn't matter whether you have someone or not."
"..." Tianhai Qimingyue didn't know how to continue what this guy said.
Kanbaru put the sausage bamboo skewer in his hand into his disposable box, stood up on one foot, put his hand on his knee, and said softly while enjoying the sea breeze:
"I think someone actually understands that Qi Mingyue has become independent a long time ago and no longer cares about someone's existence... The reason why she still cares is actually because she was restrained by some things in her childhood.
She, she regards that shadow as her lifelong longing, and is willing to give absolute trust to it.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But once that shadow overlaps with someone now, and she is deceived by someone, she will not hesitate to deny that someone has become no longer harmonious.
It’s the same as before.”
Shen Yuanle turned around, looked at Tianhai Qimingyue, and said with a smile:
"Actually, isn't Qi Mingyue able to run far away a long time ago?"
"...You think I don't want to? Now that things have happened, is there anything in you that I can trust?"
"July..."
"Pay attention to your identity, Kanbaru-san. First of all, we only have an ordinary relationship now. Secondly, you suddenly appeared here. I have reason to doubt your purpose."
The indifference of Tianhai Qimingyue made Kamara Raku feel that she was different from before.
And she stood up directly while speaking, obviously not wanting to have close contact with herself.
Kanbaru saw this and knew that she was really angry and disappointed with herself.
"It was Liuli who called me here."
"......What?"
"Liu Li said that you disappeared suddenly in the middle of the night. She searched for you for a long time and contacted you for a long time, but you didn't reply... She could only ask me to help look for you."
"...And then you went out to look for me early in the morning?"
"Otherwise?" Kanhara asked.
"hypocritically."
"Why is this fake? You disappeared, and Liuli asked me to help look for you, so why didn't I come out to look for you? Not only me, but Ling and Zhixue also came out to look for you."
"hypocritically."
"Qiyue, I have not lied at all in my concern for you."
"hypocritically."
Tianhai Qimingyue was very unhappy and had no trust in this guy at all. "Have you forgotten what you said not long ago?"
"I don't think there is anything wrong with what I said. I must also be responsible for Zhixue's matter."
"Why do you say you should be responsible? Then shouldn't you be responsible for me and my sister?"
Rarely, Tianhai Qimingyue raised her voice when she spoke.
Kanbaru didn't want to offend her, so he lowered his voice and said:
"I will also be responsible for you and Liuli."
"...But it's a pity that someone didn't do it."
"Listen to me first, Qiyue... I know you can't trust me, but please listen to what I have to say... Don't you also know what happened between Zhixue and me? If I put Zhixue
What will happen to Zhixue if she is left alone in the hospital? Her illness has reached a very serious stage."
"She can be sent to her aunt's home after treatment."
"Then what? Qi Qi thinks that Zhi Xue will be fine after going to her sister's house? Qi Qi, don't forget, who looked down on Zhi Xue before? Her fourth sister's family also has a son with a very bad temper. Qi Qi
Do you think it will be fine if Zhixue is sent back?"
"That's better than staying by your side. Her pain for you is only temporary and will be forgotten soon."
Kanbaru shook his head: "But what about the fact? The fact is that Zhixue has forgotten everything, but she has not forgotten me, and she has been looking forward to me visiting her... She is treated every day and takes medicine every day, and her life is very uncomfortable. Even Sakura
Bo also wanted to make her happy by saying, "I will go see her."
"Also, why can you say that Yuki's feelings are temporary? You have been chasing a certain shadow for more than ten years in July, and why do you think that Yuki will forget it so easily?"
Tianhai Qimingyue frowned, "Isn't that a good thing you did? Why do you care so much about others?"
"That's why I have to take responsibility."
Kagawa Raku's expression suddenly became serious:
"Don't forget, in July, I did something as good as this to a little girl under the bus stop more than ten years ago."
"..."
During Tianhai Qimingyue's slightly stunned pause, Kambara continued to speak seriously:
"Qi Mingyue, if I were the kind of person who would die without saving anything, then I wouldn't have chosen to say hello to the little girl who was injured in the fall that day, and I wouldn't have taken care of you in Qi Mingyue at all.
Feel... In July, you can take a good look back. Are the snow conditions you had before and now the same?
"You said in Qiyue that you should be responsible for my own actions. Since I have made mistakes, I must bear the corresponding responsibility. Didn't Qiyue let me be myself before, let me put myself, Kanhara Le, this
If you follow through to the end, it is also a lie to deceive me? Aren't you also deceiving me? "
They both fell into silence.
Kanbaru doesn't want to quarrel with Qiyue.
July is not very rational right now...
Taking advantage of the surrounding environment to calm down, Kanbaru said to her again:
"In July, Zhixue has been blaming herself for her inner thoughts... When she sees us quarreling, she will think it is her own fault. Don't you like Zhixue very much too?
?You also wrote in her handbook that if you have any trouble, you should come to Sister Qiyue. So, don’t avoid me on purpose, okay?"
Tianhai Qimingyue took a deep breath and crossed her arms, "...I'm a little confused."
"I know."
"Let me tell you first, I have no intention of forgiving you."
"no problem."
"As for things in school, forget it... I'm too lazy to avoid you. Since I don't care anymore, I can just treat you as a passerby in school."
"Of course."
Tianhai Qimingyue had no intention of continuing, "Then that's it for today. I don't want to say anything more...Thank you for running out to find me early in the morning today."
"What about basketball practice? You won't avoid Zhixue and me in July, will you?"
"I do what I say."
...
Watching Tian Hai Qi Mingyue walking back, her unusually lonely figure in the night wind, Kambaraku breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that persuading Qi Mingyue was successful... but not completely successful yet.
As for the grilled sausage that was given to her just now...it seemed like she was the only one who ate it.
