The gymnasium suddenly became quiet; the sounds of music and people's discussions all disappeared.

The thunder and rain outside hit the eardrums even more violently.

"The kingdom can forgive the knight, so why can't you forgive her?" Watanabe Toru's eyes, which were slightly darker than those of ordinary people, looked straight at Kiyono Rin.

"Some people can forgive betrayal, some people can't, they just choose differently."

"She kept her promise to you, but she broke it because of something that ordinary people could never do... So you're going to expel her from the fairyland too?"

Qingye Rin fell silent and lowered his eyes slightly.

Kujo Miki, the Kujo family, and the scene when she was four years old surged in her mind.

Just like a gear, once life turns in the wrong direction, it will always be wrong.

Fighting alone for a long time will either lead to collapse or to possess determination and will that are unimaginable for ordinary people.

Kiyono Rin raised her eyes and her gaze fell on Watanabe Toru's face.

"That's right," she said.

The thunder was dull, but the audience turned a deaf ear to it, forgetting that it was a typhoon day and looking at the stage nervously.

"What's going on?" Ikki Aoi was confused and worried.

"Don't worry, leave it to Watanabe." Koizumi Aona looked at Watanabe Toru on the stage. She trusted him more than herself.

Watanabe Toru stared at Kiyono Rin.

Starting at the age of four, one person persisted for thirteen years.

She stood alone in the boundless wilderness. Watanabe was fascinated by her beautiful figure and admired her from the bottom of his heart.

But compared to all this, no matter what she thought or what path she planned to take in the future, Toru Watanabe wanted to see her laughing in the crowd - this was his arrogance and selfish opinion.

"Only by caring for each other and understanding each other can life be happy." This is the life he learned from Kujo Miki and Koizumi Aona, and now he tells it to Kiyono Rin.

"Everyone has his own happiness. If you live according to your own will, you can also be happy."

"It's certainly right to stick to your principles and stick to yourself. I won't say it's wrong either. But I want you to give up and leave Wonderland."

"You betrayed me?" Qingye Rin's voice really turned cold.

The typhoon seemed to have just discovered the stadium and swept in suddenly.

The clouds followed closely behind, furious, and threw lightning fiercely to the ground. The sky was as bright as day, and then there was a loud bang and it exploded violently.

The world is shaking.

"No." Watanabe Toru closed his eyes.

"Let me give up, you are telling the truth." Qingye Rin said slowly, enunciating each word.

"No."

Qingye Rin sneered and looked sharply at Watanabe Toru who had his eyes closed.

"You love Kiyono too much to look at her objectively and think about everything from her perspective."

"You and Kiyono Rin are so close that you can't think calmly."

"Kujou is responsible for the family and cannot see through lies, but you asked her not to lie, even though she has already stopped lying to you!"

"Meiji has made efforts, but what about you, Qingye? If you want to be friends with someone, do you care about each other at least? Do you just let others cater to you? "

'Love is not one-sided, it is mutual!'

A series of plans, a bunch of principles, and a basket of words that had been thought of long ago supported Toru Watanabe to get here and stand on the stage.

but……

Only by being cold-blooded and ruthless can one remove the private feelings, find a solution, and fulfill his wish - but he still can't do it.

He opened his eyes and looked at Kiyono Rin.

That pretty face, filled with anger of betrayal and an expression as cold as ice.

If this wasn't a stage for a drama performance, she would have already turned and left.

Even though her eyes were as cold as a blade, making people dare not look directly at her; even though she was stubborn, cold and ruthless... Toru Watanabe still liked her hopelessly.

'All the flowers bloom for you, you are so different.'

No matter how many choices he has in life, Toru Watanabe has only one choice: to love Kiyono Rin.

"You better stop it." He said coldly.

At this moment, the typhoon fled in panic and the clouds dared not make even the slightest sound.

Everyone held their breath, and Qingye Rin looked at him in disbelief.

"The world outside is very exciting," said Toru Watanabe. "There are witches who can sympathize with the devil, and witches who make deals with the devil because they love the gods and don't care about the gods' feelings. There are all kinds of people and all kinds of things. Don't you want to go and see? Why do you want to stay in this cold wonderland with only flowers?"

"No? Is that wrong?"

"No. It's wrong."

"reason?"

"No reason."

"Are you being unreasonable?" Qingye Rin sneered.

Toru Watanabe thought of Asuka Mai and didn't care about anything, even his wishes, as long as she was with him.

"You are the only one who can make me act so recklessly, worry so much and work so hard," said Toru Watanabe.

"..." Qingye Rin fell silent and turned her face away, avoiding his sight.

"I won't force you to make any choice, but I want you to answer me now: Do you regret it? Have you ever thought about reconciling with her?"

In the script, fairies can't lie.

In reality, Kiyono Rin would not lie.

I don't know when the strong wind stopped, and the silence like the drizzle falling on the eaves was taking place in the gymnasium.

After a long time, Qing Ye Lin spoke calmly:

"……Have."

……

"The fairy admits her mistake, and the world comes to an end." Watanabe Toru clapped frivolously, as if the confrontation just now had never existed.

Only then did the people come back to their senses, and they were amazed.

"What a cunning devil!"

"He pretended to be a good person and took the initiative to persuade the fairy to forgive the girl. I was wondering why, but that's how it is!"

"Could it be that the devil prepared the map from the beginning?"

"Perhaps the witch, miko, female knight, and young girl were all used by the devil. They are the devil's pawns. The devil's target was the fairy from the beginning."

“So this is what the end of the world means.”

The audience was eager to discuss their understanding of the plot, and only came to their senses and applauded vigorously when they saw the curtain slowly fall.

Watching the curtain gradually closing, Toru Watanabe breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's completely different from the plan." Miki Kujo said beside him.

"That's it. That's enough."

At this moment, Qing Ye Lin suddenly walked up to him and whispered, "I have something to tell you later."

"..." When Toru Watanabe saw her sharp eyes, he wailed in his heart.

"Miji..." There came a day when he actually asked Kujo Miji for help.

"Go, dear." Kujo Miki said with a smile.

Backstage, people applauded.

"fantastic!"

"What great acting, I thought they were really arguing!"

"Yeah, I was shocked!"

"We are the Oscar-winning male and female protagonists, this is nothing." Watanabe Toru responded.

After changing their clothes, Toru Watanabe and Rin Kiyono came to the corridor leading to the school building on the second floor of the gymnasium.

The typhoon has stopped and it is drizzling.

Before Kiyono Rin spoke, Watanabe Toru said like a child: "I'm sorry for being mean to you, but that's because I like you."

"I guessed what you were going to do on stage when I got the script."

"So you were ready to reconcile with Meiji a long time ago?"

"Don't change the subject." Qingye Rin glanced at him.

"You are not one of them either." Thinking this, Watanabe Toru became more and more worried.

There was one thing in this whole thing that he could not justify in any way, and Kiyono Rin obviously noticed it.

"In Karuizawa..."

really.

"…Because if you had said it directly, I wouldn't have agreed to perform in a play, so when we were in Karuizawa, you deliberately talked about our first meeting and led me to sing the same tune, as if you liked this way of chatting, so you decided to perform in a play on the spur of the moment - you lied to me?"

"No. I just said it casually."

"Take advantage of my nostalgia for the past..."

"If I step down, will you forgive me?"

Qing Ye Lin looked at Watanabe Toru coldly: "Open the window."

"Do you want me to jump?"

As soon as the window was opened, fresh and comfortable air rushed in immediately. Summer was completely over and Tokyo had completely entered autumn.

Qingye Rin took a deep breath into the cool night air.

"Um, Kiyono-san, R-san?"

"What can I do with you?" Qingye Rin turned her head and smiled helplessly, "You like me so much, and I like you so much."

Watanabe Toru was speechless.

Is his mood at this moment the same as when Qingye Rin heard him say on the stage, 'You are the only one who allows me to act so recklessly and who cares so much and works so hard'?

……

Although the typhoon has stopped, the tram service has not been restored and the school is worried about letting the students go back so late, so they still have to stay in school overnight.

When it was time to sleep, Miki Kujo slept between Toru Watanabe and Rin Kiyono. She didn't want to sleep next to them even if there was a girl.

Qingye Rin lay in the dark, thinking about everything she had experienced on the stage today.

At that time... maybe I was really too cruel to Kujo Miki.

She closed her eyes and questioned her innermost thoughts.

Do you hate Kujo Miki?

Hate.

Do you hate being with Kujo Miki?

Don't hate it, get used to it.

What if I continue to be friends with her?

...It's not impossible.

At the age of four, who made more mistakes?

Kujo Miki broke the agreement first, but since she was only four years old at the time, she didn't lie at all, so she was a little more wrong.

Qingye Rin exhaled.

In the darkness, she reached to the right and touched Kujo Miki's slender fingers.
