When a person is used to seeing fixed scenery, he will always have a wonderful sense of familiarity when he sees similar scenery again, which is the so-called sense of déjà vu. This will make you feel that you are still in your own place.
In a familiar environment, and this also applies to other things, such as time.
Basically living a repetitive life every day made Xia Zhi spend several days as if they were yesterday and today. He lay well on the bed, with light shining in through the curtains, and there was a little bit of life in the dim space.
There was light, and this light also became an opportunity to stimulate Xia Zhi to wake up from his sleep.
When consciousness gathered from the chaos, Xia Zhi suddenly opened his eyes, sat up straight, said "fuck" and then slammed out of bed. The appearance of this bright light meant that it was time for Xia Zhi to wake up.
There is a big gap from the time I woke up before, in other words: "I'm going to be late!"
I opened the quilt covering my body and was about to get out of bed. I picked up my phone and took a look. It was eight seventeen.
"There are only thirteen minutes left!?"
Calm down! Calculate carefully, if you run towards school from now on, it is still possible to walk into the classroom before class! Run all the way, hope you still have the strength!
Damn it! Why didn’t the alarm clock go off today?
…
Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment, then picked up the phone and took a look. Well, it's the weekend.
In just over ten seconds, Xia Zhi went from extreme shock and panic to mental exhaustion after suddenly finding out that he was somehow safe, and fell on the bed again. After thinking about it, he opened the bed
The quilt was also pulled up.
"It turns out that today is already the weekend..." Xia Zhi sighed: "Then let's go to sleep."
Closing his eyes and curling up in the quilt, Xia Zhi regretted his action of lifting the quilt just now. Most of the heat in the quilt had been blown away by the wind. Now he was not a person who could sleep comfortably.
Fortunately, the whole process did not take more than a minute, and the quilt was not completely cool.
Hiss...it's so cold...
The temperature seems to be a little low today. Fortunately, today is the weekend, so I can sleep in bed later. I don’t have to go to work or go to school, and no one will disturb my rest...
"Ding~dong~"
……between.
What bastard wants to disturb my sweet dream this early morning when it's not even nine o'clock!?
Xia Zhi pulled the quilt over his head, trying to block out the sound of the doorbell at the apartment door, and pretended that nothing happened. It kept ringing for more than ten seconds, and then it finally fell silent. Xia Zhi continued to ring the doorbell as if he thought the other party had given up.
, when he had already left, the mobile phone that had just been thrown next to the pillow beside the bed suddenly vibrated.
Is it over yet...
Slightly unhappy, Xia Zhi turned into a quilt slime again, stretched out his hand to grab the vibrating mobile phone, and then retracted his hand into the quilt. As the main body, he looked at the dazzlingly bright mobile phone screen in the quilt, above which was
The interface to remind you of incoming calls, and the person calling is——Tachibana Aya.
Xia Zhi really wanted to throw the phone to a place where the vibrating sound would not be transmitted to his ears, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be no such place in his apartment except the living room. If he wanted to go out to the living room...
…It’s better to just get up and forget it.
So, Xia Zhi nestled under the quilt and answered the phone.
Before the word "Hello" was uttered, Tachibana Aya's words came through the mobile phone like a barrage of words.
"Xia Zhi, what are you doing? Open the door! It's freezing outside!"
Xia Zhi was stunned for a moment: "What did you say? It was too fast, I didn't hear clearly."
"Open the door quickly!"
Xia Zhi sighed, so after another minute or so of nestling in the quilt, he still had to get up.
"Wait a moment."
Xia Zhi once again lifted the quilt, and this time the little heat turned into a butterfly and flew away. He found his slippers, put them on and walked to the entrance. Anyway, he was wearing these clothes in summer.
Casual clothes were used as pajamas, and it didn't matter whether to change clothes or not. But...the temperature was really low, and Xia Zhi's resentment was building up.
Crossing her arms, she walked to the entrance and opened the door for Tachibana Aya. As soon as she pressed the door handle, Tachibana Aya opened the door herself and jumped in. She quickly closed the door, as if something terrible was looking for her outside.
"Huh...it's so cold today." Tachibana sighed.
"I know you still come to disturb my sleep..."
"Hmm? Is it time to go to bed now?" Tachibana Aya stared at Xia Zhi with wide eyes: "Didn't you notice anything different about me today?"
Xia Zhi held her hands and looked up and down carefully at Tachibana Aya. She was indeed a little different today than usual.
"The clothes you wore today are really cold."
It's not the original school uniform with a suspicious black coat, nor the later casual cross-dressing. Today, Tachibana Aya wears something different from the past. A black peaked cap is worn on the top of her head, and her long shawl hair is originally spread out.
It was also tied into a ponytail and stretched out from the back edge of the peaked cap. It looked different from before, and seemed to be more energetic.
Xia Zhi was wearing a synthetic sky-blue top that he could roughly guess the thickness and warmth from just looking at the material. A gray shirt could be seen from the exposed part of the collar. The lower body was a pair of dark gray slim-fitting jeans, which Xia Zhi took a look at.
She wanted to chop off a section of her long legs, but she did so on her own legs.
If you ignore this part, Tachibana Aya's outfit can almost interpret the full meaning of the phrase "be graceful, not warm". She probably has a bad brain and only wears such a few clothes on such a cold day.
Just go out.
Tachibana Aya puffed out her mouth unhappily and made a cute sound like "Mmm~" as if she had escaped from the two-dimensional world: "Have you forgotten what day it is today?"
"Today?" Xia Zhi thought for a moment: "Isn't today the weekend, the day to sleep in?"
"We're going out to play today! Let's go to the beach together!"
Tachibana Aya couldn't help but say, with reproach in her eyes. Xia Zhi ignored her look and took a breath of cold air. Her originally vague consciousness was frightened to wake up by her words.
"Are you serious? Today?" Xia Zhi asked with a doubtful tone: "It's such a cold day, are you sure you want to go to the beach? Did your brain freeze yesterday?" As he said that, he stretched out his hand towards Tachibana.
Cai's forehead was touched.
Tachibana Aya slapped his hand away: "How rude. I'm not sick and talking nonsense. Didn't we already agree a few days ago that we are going to the beach today?"
"It's agreed, but isn't it too cold?" Although he doesn't know what the specific temperature is today, it is definitely not high. If possible, Xia Zhi wants to stay indoors all day today.
.
"How can humans be defeated by nature?" Tachibana Aya waved her fist. Unfortunately, probably because of the cold, her body was trembling slightly, and the fist she was waving was also trembling. The corners of Xia Zhi's eyes twitched.
"Don't tremble when you say this." Xia Zhi reluctantly made way for the passage from the entrance to the living room: "Go, sit by the stove for a while, and I will pour you a cup of hot water."
"I'm not cold!" Tachibana Aya retorted, her eyebrows almost raised.
"Yes, yes, you're not cold." Xia Zhi grabbed her waving fist, and the cold feeling spread from the other's hand to his own: "It's so cold. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."
"……oh."
Natsuki let go of Tachibana Aya's hand, turned around and walked into the kitchen to boil water.
This large naughty child's hands were almost as warm as the wall and she was still talking nonsense. Xia Zhi really wanted to catch her and give her a spanking. However, this was not really a naughty child, or she had already left the scope of children.
What a naughty kid, Xia Zhi can't turn his ideas into reality.
When Natsuki came out with a cup filled with hot water, Tachibana Aya had already shrunk into the kotatsu. On the basis of a normal human sitting posture, except for her body, which was still outside the kotatsu, her hands and feet had already
She reached inside the kotatsu and lay down on the table with an expression of enjoyment. She was already a mature useless person.
Xia Zhi put the two cups on the table, sat down opposite Tachibana Ayai, and then shrank in.
Hiss...it's so warm...
There was an expression of unfulfilled enjoyment on his face.
Feeling that another person suddenly broke into the kotatsu world, Tachibana Aya moved her head, rested her chin on the table and looked at Xia Zhi: "I'm just taking a little rest, I'm going to go to the beach later."
"It's such a cold day, can't you go at another time? You're already so cold."
"I'm not cold!" As if to prove that she wasn't cold, Tachibana stood up straight in an instant. However, her hands still lingered on the warmth of the kotatsu and refused to stretch out from inside.
Xia Zhi rolled his eyes.
"Have you had breakfast?"
"No."
"What do you want to eat? Can you make an omelette?"
"Okay~"
Although he asked a few questions, Xia Zhi still did not move - he had not yet accumulated the willpower to get out of the kotatsu.
Tachibana Aya took her hand out of the kotatsu and grabbed the cup filled with hot water. The heat of the hot water was weakened by the cup wall and transferred to her hands in a very subtle and comfortable manner.
"Then...are you not going today?" Tachibana Aya asked.
After all, it is very cold today. Going to the beach in autumn or winter is really not a good idea. There are no people and you probably can’t go to the sea to play. It is probably quite boring. Besides, it would be bad if you get sick... Tachibana Aya’s
There was melancholy in her tone, and Xia Zhi, the master of color science, could easily hear the difference between her tone and usual.
Enjoying the warmth of the kotatsu, Xia Zhi sighed: "It's very cold today..."
Tachibana Aya also sighed after hearing this.
"Go back and change into thicker clothes later."
?
…
!
Tachibana Aya looked at Xia Zhi with her big eyes open, with a dull expression on her face due to surprise. Xia Zhi found it funny and couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't say I wouldn't go, why are you so disappointed?"
She has already decided to go before, so Xia Zhi will not break the contract temporarily. Moreover, if she does not go this time, this guy will probably be very disappointed, right? Although it is not good to always follow her wishes, but a promise is a promise.
It is something that needs to be followed carefully.
After confirming that she heard correctly, Tachibana breathed a long sigh of relief, and then nestled in the kotatsu in an even more decadent posture, with a smile on her face.
Although it was very unpleasant, Xia Zhi did think of one thing, and that was...
