241. The Day of Conversation(1/2)
The setting sun is like fire, burning the whole of Tokyo.
Amidst the accustomed sounds of musical instruments, there was suddenly a clear sound, it was a metal bat hitting a baseball.
"W-what did you say?" "Koizumi Aona" responded in a panic.
"Where did Watanabe go?"
"What did you say? How..."
"Answer me." Qingye Rin's voice was lower than usual, and his tone was slightly accentuated.
The expression on that backlit face could not be seen clearly, but "Little Aona" felt tremendous pressure.
Her throat was dry and she swallowed uncontrollably.
The still cold wind in early April blew through the elevated corridor on the fifth floor, dancing Qingye Rin's long hair, slightly lifting her skirt, and pouring into her collar and sleeves.
But she ignored the lifted skirt, and the wind that poured into her clothes couldn't make her colder. She only wanted to know one thing now...
"Watanabe, Toru Watanabe, where have you been?" Kiyono Rin took a step forward and walked into the shadow of the club building.
Losing the light, "Koizumi Aona" finally saw the face of the girl in front of her clearly.
Cold and pale, his hands were tightly holding the shoulder strap of his schoolbag.
Angry, surprised, scared.
"Koizumi Aona" stared at her in shock.
Although they had only known each other for one day, the impression of Qingye Rin's calmness and indifference to others had already been deeply ingrained in her heart.
This kind of Kiyono Rin now showed an expression... like that of a child who has lost his parents.
"Koizumi Aona" remembered something that happened a long time ago:
When I was a child, my grandmother had a cat. After my grandmother died, my father, who didn't like cats, planned to abandon it.
Her father was riding a bicycle, and she was sitting on the back seat of the bicycle holding a cardboard box. In the cardboard box was the cat that was about to be abandoned.
They had walked a long way, and to her at the time, it was as if they were in another country. The cat was abandoned along with the cardboard box on an unknown roadside.
When her father took her back, the cat kept chasing her.
The father rode hard, and the cat tried hard to catch up.
Finally, my father got tired, stopped his bicycle, picked up the cat, and said, "Go back."
This incident happened when she was three and almost four years old. She had obviously forgotten it long ago, but now it suddenly and clearly appeared in her mind.
The Kiyono Rin in front of her reminded her of the cat desperately chasing the bicycle.
"Go back." Her father's words when he and the cat were hugging each other came back to her ears again.
"Koizumi Aona" made the same choice as her father. She said:
"I'm sorry, I don't know where he went, but he must still exist and has not left you. I came to this body in the first class in the morning, when the physics class said, 'This is not a dream.'
"
After listening to her words, the beautiful girl in front of her seemed to feel a little relieved, and then she frowned again, her actions were so painful to see.
"Koizumi Aona" even wanted to walk over and stretch out her hand to smooth her.
"Who are you?" Qingye Rin asked again.
"My name is Koizumi Aina. I am sixteen years old. I seem to be from the past." "Koizumi Aona" answered in an uncertain voice.
"Koizumi Aona?"
"Yeah." "Koizumi Aona" nodded, "She looks very similar to Watanabe Toru's English teacher. Her two friends, Fujiki Koko and Miyazaki Miyuki, are also my current classmates, but the relationship is not good.
."
"From the past to the present, the body I occupy is still..."
In the corridor, several people from the calligraphy department were walking out carrying buckets of water.
From what they were saying, it seemed like the first grade spilled ink on the floor during the recruitment process, and they were going to clean it up before going back.
Rin Kiyono looked away from them and subconsciously gave "Toru Watanabe" a look, indicating that he should go outside the school to continue chatting.
Then, she remembered it again.
In front of her eyes, there was only the body of a man named "Toru Watanabe". The person who could read her eyes was no longer there.
Just like the sunset in front of you, orange and red like fire, but without any warmth.
"Let's go." She whispered and walked towards the teaching building.
"Oh, okay." "Koizumi Aina" quickly followed.
When they arrived at the shoe cabinet, "Koizumi Aona" looked at Kiyono Rin awkwardly.
"This." Rin Kiyono pointed to Toru Watanabe's shoe cabinet.
"Thank you Kiyono-san!"
"Koizumi Aona" quickly opened the cabinet, there was a crash inside, and a pile of letters fell out like a tidal wave.
"What is this?" "Koizumi Aona" was in a hurry. She thought she would not be able to catch it. Who knew that there was such a big pile, but not one fell to the ground.
"Love letter." Qingye Rin put on her shoes, "Also, you are not allowed to laugh from now on."
"No laughing? Why?"
"This is the reason." Qingye Rin pointed to the pile of love letters.
In the past, Toru Watanabe would only receive love letters from a few enthusiastic fans every day in the morning.
Today, because "Koizumi Aona" laughed so many times, many girls couldn't control their urge to express their love.
After changing her shoes and leaving Kamikawa, Rin Kiyono brought "Koizumi Aona" to her apartment.
"Koizumi Aona" told Kiyono Rin everything she knew.
Regarding "kissing in front of the mirror", "One Hour Locker Room" will definitely not tell it, and it will definitely not let the second person know.
"From what you said, plus the fact that it was Toru Watanabe himself before today's physics class, we can probably conclude that as long as you fall asleep over there, you will enter Watanabe's body."
"Yeah." "Koizumi Aona" nodded.
"But," Qingye Rin put the index finger of his right hand against his lower lip, "Watanabe should have discovered his situation as soon as possible, why didn't he tell me."
She seemed to be talking to herself, so "Koizumi Aona" decided not to interrupt.
After a while, Qingye Rin said to her again:
"I have something to tell Watanabe. Can I trouble you to get some sleep? That means you wake up from the 'past'."
"I don't know if it can be done."
"Try it."
"Okay...wait a minute!"
"What's the matter?" Qingye Rin frowned slightly.
Although the appearance of the "Toru Watanabe" in front of her had not changed at all, every move she made, even the way her lips opened and closed when speaking, made her extremely psychologically uncomfortable.
This has nothing to do with "Koizumi Aona" herself.
What she hates is just the fact that someone is using Toru Watanabe's body.
"Well," "Koizumi Aona" said, "I don't know if I can come back, so I want to take a look at the lottery, horse racing, and exam questions in two years."
"Search for lottery tickets and horse racing on your mobile phone, and I'll get you questions." Qingye Rin walked to the study room.
"Koizumi Aona" found that her memory has become particularly good. She memorized all the complex numbers and so many test questions in a short time.
"Why am I so powerful!" She couldn't help but boast to herself.
"Let's start quickly." Qingye Rin could probably guess the reason, but she was not in the mood to explain at this time and just wanted to see that person again as soon as possible.
"Koizumi Aona" got what she wanted, and lay on the sofa contentedly, ready to let this body "sleep" and wake herself up.
This process took about ten minutes, which was a long time, but not an insomnia-inducing time.
During this period of time, Qingye Rin had no expression on his face, his eyebrows were lowered, and he looked very calm.
But from the moment "Koizumi Aona" was lying on the sofa, holding her elbows with her hands and leaning against the wall, her movements did not change at all, until Toru Watanabe opened his eyes.
"Maybe," Toru Watanabe lay on the sofa without moving, "I need a knee pillow to fall asleep."
"Get up!" Qingye Rin scolded in a cold tone.
After failing to pretend to be stupid, Toru Watanabe sat up and said with a smile:
"What Nagai Kafeng said is indeed true. Changes are not limited to the autumn sky, the political affairs of the court, but also women's hearts."
When he was away just now, Qingye Rin was nervous and uneasy; when he came back, he didn't even let him lie down on the sofa - isn't this just the fickle nature of a woman's heart?
Qingye Rin had a cold face and ignored his proud look: "What's going on?"
"I still want to know what's going on." Toru Watanabe sighed, "That day, oh, yesterday, when I came back from school, Mr. Koizumi - the one in the school - asked me what I was going to write on the career path questionnaire, and then we chatted
