Chapter 497 Maiko uproots the weeping willow (Earth)

and so……

Maiko hugged her knees on the hospital bed and recalled her "past and present lives."

So the last time I committed suicide was because the love letter I wrote to Yamato Aya was taken away by Koharuhikazu, and he reprimanded me as a senior. I couldn't think about it for a while, so I took sleeping pills and committed suicide?
Because consciousness and personality are intertwined, when Maiko recalled that shameful past, she felt a little sad, and she was also more puzzled. The thought came to her mind, "This is it, is it worth dying for?", but thinking about it again, When I read this letter again, the memory of my death suddenly attacked me, and I even became depressed to the point of vomiting blood. This kind of psychological quality is so fragile and frightening that it is not surprising to commit suicide for this reason.

So how to view and deal with this matter...

Maiko thought.

……

Maiko's vomiting blood was not the final result of the love letter incident.

When I returned to school yesterday afternoon, everyone looked at Maiko strangely because Kasuga Kazuo had copied and distributed a large number of this love letter. Almost everyone knew about it, so this was also the reason why Maiko vomited blood.

It is not unusual for students to have feelings for each other in Takarazuka. After all, what niobashi spends 10 years learning is "how to like otakus." Many otakus' feelings for otakus can be expressed in any situation, even What is shown in the interview footage, if it is just acting, must be real enough. Will the ever-lasting emotions on the stage really not spill over into real life?

From this point of view, it is not surprising that male players who have retired from the group, especially those who were once brilliant as TOP male players, are unable to change their identities and remain unmarried for life. After all, Japanese society is relatively conservative, regardless of the official No matter how the government calls for "leaving Asia and joining Europe", folk customs will not change just because a few big figures say a few words.

This is the problem Maiko faces.

It can also be said that there is no problem.

If she were still the same Maiko she was before she committed suicide, she might drop out of school.

But now, when Maiko faces those looks and discrimination, her confused expression is also in her heart. She only has four words in her words. What’s the pressure?

Therefore, the next day, Maiko appeared in class as usual, and the teachers did not show a unique attitude towards Maiko. Even though probably every teacher knew about the existence of the letter, this was how Takarazuka management treated students. A "little trick" attitude, pretending like nothing is happening.

A busy day has passed again. Courses such as ballet, vocal music, Japanese dance, musical instruments, music theory, etc. have filled every student's day. They only have some free time before going to bed at night, so Akimichi Rin and Koharuhiwa's dormitory door opens. was struck.

Koharuhika went to open the door, and then took a step back, as if there was a monster standing outside the door.

Qiu Daolin glanced curiously, his expression quickly changed, and his eyebrows were twisted together defensively.

"Hello, senior!"

"Hi, senior..."

The two people outside the door bowed.

It is Maiko Hoshikawa and Kana Ogura.As the main messengers and executors of distributing the love letter, Akimichi Rin and Koharu Kazu did not expect that Maiko, who had been publicly executed, would dare to visit her home without hesitation. According to their understanding of Maiko, Maiko should be eager to commit suicide at this moment to apologize. That's right, if I don't commit suicide, I'm afraid I will have to drop out of school.

Their estimate was correct. The previous Maiko Hoshikawa had "committed suicide to apologize" after the love letter was discovered. Now this one has lost her sense of shame because of her "death". In other words, it's not that she has abandoned it, but she just can't empathize with her.

Therefore, in Japan, you can live a pretty good life as long as you live shamelessly.

"What are you doing here?" Koharuhi asked warily.

"Because both Maiko and Rin-senpai are rehearsing "The Truman", I specially came to visit the senior to get some knowledge and guidance." Ogura Kana's words are very respectful, but these words are to avoid Koharuhikazu and to Akimichi Rin said.

From Yamato Aya's mouth, Ogura Kana learned that Koharuhikazu was the one who distributed the love letter, so she was full of hostility towards him, but she did not know that Koharuhikazu was just the executor.

"What teaching?" Qiu Daolin wanted to drive them away, "I'm about to go to bed and I don't have time to teach you."

After all, she is only a 20-year-old girl. Even if she has thoughts and actions of bullying, she will still feel uneasy and awkward when she suddenly has to face the person being bullied. In addition, the girl's intuition tells her that Maiko Hoshikawa is not a good person. Tokiaki Dorin then remembered Maiko Hoshikawa's nickname of "Weird Girl" and felt even more uneasy.

So Maiko spoke out her request in a low voice, "I want to ask Rin-senpai to quit playing the new role in "The Truman" at the Takarazuka Grand Theater and give me the opportunity. After all, you can do two performances. I just want one game..."

This request was so outrageous that Akimichi Rin and Koharuhikazu were stunned for a few seconds, and then Koharuhikazu showed an angry expression on her face. She said: "Hoshikawa Maiko, how dare you ask such a question to your senior sister?" What a disrespectful request! The new official opportunity is the decision of the directors, directors and teachers, can it be given privately among the students?"

Maiko said: "But Rin-senpai is the first graduate student in 60 years to get a new job opportunity right after graduation. I believe Rin-senpai must have a way..."

At this time, Akido Rin said: "You actually made such a terrible request with such a low-brow attitude. Maiko Hoshikawa, you are really scary. What will happen to you if I don't agree?"

"I only have one chance..." Maiko said sadly. There was water-like tenderness between her eyebrows. Just like Qiu Daolin said, she was used to "lowering her eyebrows to please her eyes". When she looked up at people, it was as if the setting sun was shining in. In the soft pool water, there is a graceful clear light rippling with the eyes.

But such a soft girl said something surprising, "If Rin-senpai doesn't agree, I will use all means..."

"Hoshikawa Maiko, are you threatening senior?!" Koharuhikazu made a mocking and threatening voice. She probably knew Akimichi Rin's background. Even the directors had to bow their heads in front of him. In Takarazuka, Akimichi Rin was What methods can the future queen, a poor girl like Hoshikawa Maiko, use?
But Kasugazu forgot that all it takes to kill the former "eternal Prime Minister Abe" is a black gun.

So the next second, Koharuhikazu first saw Maiko Hoshikawa's weak face and turned around, then there was a moment of trance in time and space, and then there was a "Bang!" sound, Koharuhikazu felt severe pain in her back, and so on When she woke up, her throat was stuck and she couldn't breathe. All of this was done by the girl from a poor family in her eyes.

Akimichi Rin was even more horrified. She saw Hoshikawa Maiko pinching Kasugazu's neck with one hand, like beating a stuffed toy, and easily knocked it against the wall next to the door, making a heart-stopping collision sound. .

Maiko looked at Akido Rin. Her expression was still soft and weak, but her words were already chilling, "Senior, I don't have much time. I can do anything..."

boom!Maiko punched the wall next to Koharu's face. More frightening cracks appeared on the white wall, and the mark of a fist was deeply imprinted in the cement.
