In the world of Zongman, the ruthless monks just want to play badly

Finally, he just sighed and said, "Let's go. I'll take you home."

……

Chihaya Aine forgot which book she had read this sentence from.

There are some roads in this world that seem very long when you walk with other people, but when you walk with someone hidden in your heart, they are so short that you are reluctant to take a step.

Walking on the deserted path, she truly felt this feeling.

Under the bright incandescent street light, the young man's shadow was stretched out very long, and when it passed over her skirt, it was like a piece of ink-colored silk, mixed with the faint fragrance of plants, which made people's hearts move.

Aine secretly looked at the boy next to her. His handsome profile was shrouded in the soft incandescent light. He was as great as a work of art carefully crafted by ancient Greek craftsmen, without a single flaw.

At the beginning, his gaze was a little restrained, and he only dared to observe with the corner of his eye. Later, he became bolder and bolder, and he didn't even pretend.

Feeling the undisguised and frank gaze, Bai Li had no choice but to stop and turn to look at her.

"Why do you keep staring at me?"

"Because it looks good!" the girl said without hesitation.

But she quickly realized what she had said, blinked her left eye, and gave a cute wink, "Hey, it was just a joke, don't mind~"

You better really be kidding.

Bai Li sighed, looked at her helplessly, but didn't say much. He just turned around and started walking again.

Having managed to get away with it once again, Aine breathed a sigh of relief, raised a slightly smug smile, and followed briskly, stepping on his shadow with her toes.

It was obviously a very childish game, but she never got tired of it.

As this long yet short journey was about to come to an end, the outline of a familiar building could be vaguely seen in the distance.

The girl stopped, raised her head and looked at the twinkling stars in the sky.

It was a beautiful night, the stars were shining brightly and even the moonlight was gentle.

It makes people want to say something that has been hidden in their heart for a long time.

"Ali, have you seen 'Night on the Galactic Railroad'?" she asked.

"Night on the Galactic Railroad" has a national influence in Japan. The author Kenji Miyazawa is known as the "Hans Christian Andersen of Japan". Although it is a fairy tale, many well-known game producers and even literary writers have been deeply influenced by it. Bai Li nodded.

"The story is about a brother and sister named Ah Xiang and Ah Zheng. They take the Milky Way Express to a place called Southern Cross Station, which is said to be the only way to reach heaven."

The summer breeze blew through the night, like a mother's gentle caress. Aiyin put her hands behind her back and walked past him. Her small leather shoes kicked the stones on the roadside, and the sound was broken in the wind.

"Later, they met the protagonist, Giovanni. They chatted together, looked at the scenery outside the train window, and told the story called "Scorpio Fire". They were reluctant to say goodbye to Giovanni until the train arrived at the station."

"But they finally got off at Southern Cross Station because only here can they reach heaven, where their father and mother are."

As if he had a premonition of something.

Bai Li was silent for a while, without interrupting, just quietly listening to the girl tell the story whose ending he already knew.

"I really like the theme song from the movie. It's called 'One Night'. It's a pity I didn't have the chance to sing it just now."

She hummed a tune softly.

"Melody plays (かな)でるSETSANA(せつな)を时(とど)けたいだけ

I just want to convey the moment when the melody plays

小(ちい)さな手(て)を包(つつ)み込(こ)むように

Like a tender palm wrapped gently

あなたさえいれば风(かぜ)はBLOW(ふ)くの?

If you were by my side, would the evening breeze be willing to stop by?

……

The girl stopped, turned around, and playfully stuck out her tongue. "I haven't sung in a while. How's it going? I hope you're not out of tune, right?"

Bai Li was silent for a moment, then said, "There are three wrong pronunciations in English."

"Don't be so serious at a time like this!"

Aine pretended to step on his shoes, but burst out laughing.

She continued walking forward on the white curbstones, like a nimble deer stepping on piano keys bathed in moonlight.

"Ali, do you know?"

The girl stood there gracefully, her hair and skirt flying in the wind like a blooming flower.

"There is also a galactic train in my heart, and you are the only Southern Cross Station."

The moment she turned around suddenly, thousands of fireflies rose from the bottom of her eyes, reflecting a bright and brilliant smile and cute pointed fangs.

So only being with you is heaven.

Chapter 250 The moon is very bright, it is useless even if it is bright, and it is also bright even if it is useless

"Ali, I like you."

It turns out that saying these four words is easier than you think.

There was no blushing or heartbeating, no hesitation or hesitation. The girl was just stating a fact. I said it and you heard it, that's enough. She was very serious, like a nail hammered into wood.

Bai Li was silent for a while.

Aine's confession was completely unexpected to him, perhaps because the atmosphere before was too appropriate, or perhaps because of that one-minute kiss.

In short, the pink-haired girl's friendship with him seemed to have deteriorated slightly.

Just like a certain Ms. Guiqulaixie who wishes to remain anonymous, and an Archangel from Shimokitazawa who followed suit.

Every time this happened, Baili couldn't help but miss an old friend with blue hair.

I miss you, Xieliang.

He is good at talking but his body is more honest than anyone else. He is the last barrier to the band, but no one has taken action against him for such a long time. He is great, no need to say more.

But now it’s too late to miss Xie Liang.

The most urgent matter is how to deal with Aine's confession.

There is an old saying that goes, "Too much debt is no worry."

A debt of love is also a debt.

When their friendship went sour for the first time, his mentality was still in a complicated state of "I treat you as a friend, but you want to sleep with me?"

But this is the third time.

Kita, Nijika, and——Aine in front of me.

From unexpected, to helpless, and then to commonplace.

It’s not that he is familiar with the situation, but Bai Li is definitely no longer the rookie recruit. What kind of scene has he not seen?

He didn't hate Aine, otherwise he wouldn't have done the kind of intimate contact that only existed between lovers to her in karaoke.

But Aine didn't know him well. It would be fine if they were just friends, but now their relationship was about to change, and the girl should have the right to know some facts.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but his mouth was pressed against by a slender finger.

"This isn't a confession, I just wanted to say it."

The girl in front of him looked at him intently and said word by word, "There's a girl named Chihaya Aine who likes you and wants to be with you forever, that's all."

"So," she actually smiled softly, "no matter what your answer is, she will still like you and pursue you as she pleases, until she is with you."

If a boy said this, it would undoubtedly be the ultimate pervert's declaration.

But from her mouth, one can only feel simplicity and passion.

The evening breeze lifted the girl's cherry-pink hair, and her gray eyes were so stubborn and bright under the street light.

Then she turned around, waved, and walked away without any regrets.

"Good night, and see you tomorrow."

The moonlight adorned the road ahead for her, and the girl's light skirt fluttered in the wind.

Love is a matter between two people, but love can only be related to one person.

Just like the moon tonight, it’s useless to be bright, but it’s bright even if it’s useless.

Just like I like you, liking you is useless, but I still like you even if it’s useless.

……

The night is as dark as ink.

Sitting on the last tram going home, Bai Li lowered his head and quietly looked at the messages on his mobile phone.

【Chihaya Aine: I'm already home! 】

Chihaya Aine: I had a lot of fun today. I've already said it, but I still want to say thank you for coming with me.

[Chihaya Aine: A-li, love~]

Although she had said similar things to me in a joking tone before, my mood at that time was completely different from now.

…I can only say that after the confession, this girl stopped acting.

Bai Li sighed.

The first time is strange, the second time is familiar. He didn't have any other extra feelings, just a little Muggle.

Aine chose the same approach as Kita, confessing unilaterally but without waiting for his reply, she left freely.

But she is bolder and braver than Kita.

That notice was more like a declaration of war than a confession.

This war called "love" was started by her and was destined to end with one side being conquered.

……

Thirty minutes later.

"Brother, you came back so late today! A full fourteen minutes and twenty-seven seconds later than the agreed time!!"
