Tokyo Love Story

No matter how rough a gem is, more than one person will see its potential.

What’s more, these people have already begun to shine.

As for the outcome, we'll have to wait and see.

Anyway...

Kashiwagen Shiori narrowed her eyes slightly, and ripples appeared in her beautiful eyes.

I don't think I will lose.

She thought so.

There was a power outage for the whole day, so I wrote this in an Internet cafe. To be honest, it's a bit embarrassing.

Thank you for the reward from Mr. Tubinan Bowan, and the monthly tickets from Mr. Weizheng Bafang Yumian Xiaoshusheng and Mr. Xiziliang. Your support is my motivation for writing.

Another question, everyone thinks it is better to update together or separately.

Chapter 96 Movie [3K4 middle chapter]

After dinner, to Kitagawa Che's surprise, Kitaen Rin did not choose to watch the TV series that she, Ejima Ta and Tsugumi Serina used to watch. Instead, she changed the channel and watched a romantic movie with a cool tone.

For him, he doesn't think it matters much. After all, to put it bluntly, when watching TV in the living room after dinner, it's not about whether the program is good, but just about the atmosphere of watching together.

It is just like countless young people do not understand why their parents lie on the sofa, watch TV, and fall asleep while watching. What they want is not the TV program, and it does not matter whether the TV program is good or not. What they want is just the faint sense of security given by the steadily beating screen, which can give their nerves that have been tense all day a rest and temporarily relax.

This is why most children would kindly turn off the TV for their parents at such times, but would soon hear their parents wake up from their daze and say, "Who turned off the TV? I was watching it."

So the TV was turned on again.

Tsugumi Seina looked at Kitaen Rin thoughtfully for several times. She could feel that something was wrong with the other party today, just like the state of a girl who has a crush on a boy and meets a strong competitor.

Her expression remained calm, but one could still see the anxiety and panic in her heart in her every move.

After hesitating for a long time, Tsuchiya Seina swallowed the inferences in her heart. Since she didn't say anything, why should she point it out?

The teacher's attention then returned to the TV screen.

The story is told in the cold-toned images of the film.

In July of 1915, the American Civil War entered its fourth year.

In Petersburg, Virginia, the artillery fire had been going on for weeks, with the North and the South attacking and defending each other, but neither side could advance a single step.

In order to break the current deadlock, the Yankees dug a tunnel underground under the Southerners, where tons of explosives were quietly stored.

In the trench, the young man from Lengshan Town took out the worn-out book his sweetheart had given him, the letter tied with the book, and the photo sandwiched in between. His expression was gentle yet sad. He had a lot of things to say to her but he didn't have time to say them before they went their separate ways.

In the dim tunnel, a match lit up and the fuse of the explosives was quietly ignited.

Amid an explosion that resounded through the sky, the roar of artillery shells, the sound of gunfire passing by the ears, the dusty smell of gunpowder and blood together constructed the extremely cruel side of the war.

In the chaos of the battlefield, the young man witnessed his fellow comrades from the same hometown die in front of him.

When he dragged the cold corpse across the battlefield where both sides were killing each other, his heart suddenly became desolate.

At night, another mopping-up campaign initiated by their side started. During the war, in order to save his comrades, the young man was shot in the neck and was subsequently sent to the field hospital.

At the moment he was shot, many scenes flashed through the young man's mind, one of which was what he said to his sweetheart, "I will be back."

In the hospital, a kind female nurse read the letter sent by his sweetheart to the unconscious young man. The words "Come back, I've been waiting for you" awakened him and ignited the light in his heart, letting him know that in the distance, there was also such a person who was looking forward to and waiting for him day and night.

So, before a gloomy dawn, for those words and for his own promise, he jumped out of the window of the field hospital and embarked on the journey home.

But the gloomy weather seemed to be foreshadowing something.

Deserters will be hunted down and shot by the local militia.

As the plot deepened, Kitagawa Che was gradually drawn into it, as was Kitagawa Rinne who was sitting next to him.

Even when Ejima Miu, who was sitting on the short sofa, quietly got up, went to the kitchen to cut some fruit, then turned back and put the fruit plate on the coffee table, neither of them noticed.

War and going home, these two key words were gradually and powerfully linked together.

The heroine, who has never been involved in worldly affairs, has suffered repeated setbacks in life, but life is always like this. When things are not going well for you and you feel that everything is terrible but you still grit your teeth and persevere, the dawn will come quietly.

A helper, or a temporary guest, broke into the heroine's life.

As a woman herself, she taught this young lady, who once knew nothing about housework and farm work, to take care of everything. The tedious and busy chores made the heroine overwhelmed, but her female cohabitant could always make her laugh in various ways.

During this period, the movie also entered a brief period of warm tones.

The war and the cold reality began to push her towards another important stage in her life. During this process of change, she remained unchanged and still missed the young man who had already embarked on the journey home, traveling through mountains and rivers, and overcoming many dangers.

The head of the militia stationed in Lengshan Town is a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh. He constantly harasses the heroine.

Faced with such harassment, the heroine resisted and clearly refused. At the same time, she longed more and more for the return of the man she loved.

The living room of the Kitagawa family fell into unexpected silence, and everyone was drawn into the plot.

The plot develops step by step, just like what the saying describes, all reunions after a long separation are mostly unexpected encounters. In the snow, the young man and his sweetheart met unexpectedly.

The movie has officially entered its climax.

In the snow, in front of the bonfire, the two hugged each other and talked to each other, and some things happened as it should.

Although it was just a short clip, Kitaen Rin'in's breathing became inexplicably rapid, and her face unconsciously turned red. The same was true for Ejima Myo.

On the other hand, Tsugumi Serina was very composed, with a peaceful look in her eyes. When she was in the university dormitory, she and several roommates had gathered together to watch more exciting things, so this was just a step up.

But Beichuan Che sighed softly.

The more the plot develops in this direction, it naturally means that the next ending will not end with a happy ending.

Kitaen Rin noticed his sigh.

She subconsciously turned her head and looked at him, but she read an indescribable melancholy between his brows.

The so-called tragedy is to smash beautiful things into pieces for people to see.

The more beautiful this moment is, the more painful it will be next.

The movie continued, but Beiyuan Linyin's mood became inexplicably heavy because of his sigh, and she seemed to feel something from his sigh.

The young man eventually encountered the rural militia that was hunting down deserters.

The leader of the rural militia who frequently harassed the heroine was killed along with his entire team by the hero, but the young man was also fatally shot in the final match.

In the woods, when the last gunshot rang out, the heroine seemed to have anticipated something and ran towards the woods desperately.

But it's always too late.

The young man staggered and fell in the snow, and his bright red blood dyed the white ground red.

In the last moments of his life, he smiled, looking more relaxed than ever before.

In times of war, perhaps only the soul can cross thousands of miles to return to the person you love.

This time I am leaving, but I am staying forever.

The heroine threw herself on the young man, and warm tears kept falling.

After the last kiss, everything came to an end.

Beiyuan Rinyin turned her eyebrows and looked at Beichuan Che with a somewhat moved expression, and there was a hint of complexity in her bright eyes.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Ache, have you seen this movie?"

"No." Beichuan Che shook his head.

"Why did you sigh?"

Beiyuan Rinyin pursed her thin lips gently.

"I just guessed the direction of the plot." Beichuan Che paused and explained in a low voice, "In literary works, the more brilliant something is, the more beautiful it makes people feel. When the audience consciously focuses on its beauty, it is often the moment before it reaches the end.

“There is an irresponsible saying that goes like this: There is no classic without tragedy.

"Of course, this is just irresponsible talk.

"There's no need for tragedy for the sake of tragedy, but if you think about this movie carefully, it actually gave quite a lot of hints in the beginning."

At this point, Beichuan Che couldn't help but say a few more words, "It's just like the white moonlight in the memory that most people recall, that is, the so-called first love. Because the love is not obtained, or it ends without a disease, it makes people toss and turn in sleep. After all, the person in the memory always makes people worry about it."

Ripples appeared in Beiyuan Rinyin's beautiful eyes. She was so moved by the plot that her eyes were red, but she keenly caught the key words.

She blinked and asked in a casual tone, "Ah Che, you sound very experienced. Have you had several relationships?"

In Kitayuan Rinyin's memory, Kitagawa Che had never been in love, but the fact that he was talking so eloquently at the moment made her feel a little sour for no reason.

The first sign of love is possessiveness, and she is no exception in this regard.

"Uh..." Beichuan Che smiled awkwardly, knowing that he was the type who would make mistakes if he spoke too much. "You've never eaten pork, but you've seen pigs run. Linyin, you must have heard a saying that most of the emotional gurus who give advice to friends on relationships are single."

"Is that so?"

Beiyuan Linyin's brows relaxed for no reason, and her tone unconsciously became softer.

"Of course." Beichuan Che nodded. Things of the previous life belong to the previous life, and things of this life belong to this life.

He has indeed never been in love in his life.

"Then Che, you better seize the moment." Beiyuan Linyin smiled faintly and said with a double meaning, "Like you said yourself, you must cherish the present moment."

"Hey!" Tsugumi Seirina frowned and coughed lightly. She turned her head and her eyes passed Beichuan Che's Adam's apple and fell on Beiyuan Rin's face, "Um, can you take care of the feelings of an older young woman, a little... understand."

She didn't finish her words, but the expression on her face that said 'I should be under the car, not in the car' was too obvious.

It’s a pity that there is no Adu in this world, so she has no way to take out her mobile phone and play the current BGM for herself.

You two should consider the feelings of single people!

Tsugumi Serina roared viciously in her heart.

Hearing this, Kitaen Rinin lowered her eyebrows in embarrassment, her soft black hair covering her picturesque blushing face, and her body unconsciously moved closer to Kitagawa Che, avoiding Tsugumi Seina's scorching gaze.

Looking at this scene, Ejima Mia's mouth corners unconsciously lifted up and revealed a faint smile, but she was extremely restrained and did not make any sound.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the living room changed from the silence just now to become inexplicably cheerful and lively, like a jar of intoxicating girl's red wine.

That’s right, Tsugumi Seina’s expression became more and more subtle.

If this isn't bullying singles, then what is?

Buzz. Buzz.

Suddenly, the cell phone in Beichuan Che's trouser pocket rang.

If there are any typos, please point them out. There were typos mentioned by readers in the first 75 chapters, but I don’t have the permission anymore, so I can’t change them (sad). I can only ask the editor for permission on Monday.

Chapter 97 Invitation

"Sorry, I'm going to take a call."

After taking a look at the caller, Beichuan Che stood up, walked to the study on the first floor, and closed the door.

The call was from no one else but Kashiwagen Shiori, who had pushed the atmosphere in the auditorium to another climax this afternoon.

In the last two seconds before the ringing sounded, Beichuan Che answered the phone, "Good evening, Senior Baiyuan."

"Isn't this name too strange?"

On the other end of the phone, Bo Yuan Shizhi frowned slightly and teased him in a light-hearted tone, "Mr. Colleague, are you trying to draw a line between you and me?"

"No, didn't I call you that before?"

Beichuan Che didn't quite get what the girl meant for a moment.

"Woo, stop talking, I understand."

Kashiwagen Shiori pretended to be aggrieved and even sobbed softly.

"I think you're hacking me, but I have no evidence."

Beichuan Che was silent for half a second. He did not choose to cooperate and take out the script of the sad drama. Instead, he uttered these words slowly.

"Hiss, is it so obvious?" There was a hint of surprise in Kashiwagen Shizhi's voice, and she immediately continued the conversation, "Then, Mr. Colleague, are you willing to be my CPU?"

"The answer is no. But..." Beichuan Che paused and changed the subject, "If you pay more, then yes."

"That's boring and too straightforward, Mr. Colleague. You won't be able to get a girl like that."

There was a hint of smile in Kashiwagen Shiori's voice, but a hint of sadness flashed across her brows. What she said just now was both a joke and her true feelings.
