Because Tokyo is so small, you managed to ambush the blue-haired girl, who spotted you immediately and jumped into your arms.
[By the way, you also discovered the triangle version of Hatsune Miku.]
[Recently, your subordinates who were tracking the other party have sent word. As you suspected, Misaki Miku has once again misunderstood the incident involving Toyokawa Shoko, and the matter is because of her.]
Just like the death of Mizue Toyokawa before, this time Nakano Toyokawa was kicked out of the house, and along with her, Shoko Toyokawa was also kicked out. Misaki Hatsune felt it was her fault.
[So, you sent your men to lure Miku Miku onto this path, so they would witness Toyokawa Shoko throwing herself into your arms in anguish.]
[Afterwards, under the watchful eyes of Miku Miku, "I can't go to Xiaoxiang with him!", you rode your bicycle with Toyokawa Shoko to your house.]
The rain was drizzling down, and the sky looked as if it had been coated with a layer of lead gray, making it hard to breathe.
Fine rain slanted down onto the roof of a dilapidated house, dripping and pattering on the broken tiles, as if the old house itself was sighing softly.
Rainwater dripped from the eaves, forming thin streams around the rotten wooden pillars, and slowly seeped into the cracks in the already waterlogged stone slabs in the courtyard.
The air, damp from the rain, carried a musty and musty smell, mixed with the scent of earth and old wood, which made Toyokawa Shoko shiver involuntarily.
Her light-colored clothes were already soaked through in the rain, and the originally soft and light fabric clung tightly to her body, vaguely outlining her slightly trembling curves.
The shirt clung to her skin, water dripping from the collar, like a white flower wilted by the rain, shivering with cold yet stubbornly standing tall.
The knee-length gray plaid skirt, with delicate pleats and understated lace trim, was just like Toyokawa Shoko's usual reserved and proper attire.
But now, the skirt had become heavy, its edges stained with mud, and it drooped slightly, groaning softly in the wind and rain.
"Wakaba, you."
She wanted to speak, but the guilt she had always felt prevented Toyokawa Shoko from saying anything.
In the past, the young lady of the caged bird didn't know why Ichinose Wakaba left. But now, after experiencing the harsh realities of life, Toyokawa Shoko understands.
Especially 34 Miosaki Erju (four) Dam Four saw Ichinose's father lying on the bed drooling.
"Grandpa made it."
The answer is obvious, isn't it? Toyokawa Shoko couldn't understand why Ichinose Wakaba would leave the Toyokawa family when she was 6 years old.
I can't understand why my grandfather delegated my father's power so soon after my mother's death, and I can't understand why my previously kind grandfather would be so heartless as to kick my father out of the house.
The wind lifted the hem of her soaked skirt, gently patting Toyokawa Shoko's calves, the chill penetrating her skin and reaching her heart. The blue-haired girl bit her lip, struggling to suppress the fleeting urge to tremble. Her head was slightly lowered, a few strands of rain-dampened hair clinging to her cheeks, sliding down her chin, making her expression appear exceptionally quiet and defiant.
Having cared for her father for some time, Toyokawa Shoko has become stronger than before.
But at this moment, she couldn't help but feel sad. The misunderstandings that had been going on all along, plus the fact that all of this was caused by her own family, made her feel terrible.
Tears streamed down her face as she said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Toyokawa Shoko's shoulders trembled slightly, her lips were pale, yet she kept whispering, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
It was as if she wanted to express all the unspeakable regrets and pain in her heart.
"It's not Xiangzi's fault."
Ichinose Wakaba's voice was deep and gentle, like a breeze that penetrates the years, gently blowing open the corners of the blue-haired girl's heart that had long been frozen.
Toyokawa Shoko froze, her tears seemingly freezing in that instant before gushing out even more profusely.
Those arms, which she had repeatedly depicted in the depths of her memory, were now gently yet firmly encircling her.
After many years, the warmth she felt again made Toyokawa Shoko's body tremble slightly. She rested her head on the man's shoulder, her lips parted, but she could no longer utter a word.
Tears fell silently, no longer from regret, but because at this moment, Toyokawa Shoko was finally able to loosen the pain that had bound her for too long.
Now I understand why this story wasn't bad; Dio initially pretended to be a good person, using bad to counter good.
This simulation failed, but it will surely be useful next time.
Chapter 154 What right do you have to bear the burden of my life?
[On a rainy night, Toyokawa Shoko lies in your arms.]
The long-awaited warmth made the girl unwilling to leave your embrace.
[And you, after calming the girl down, told her to take a shower, otherwise she'd catch a cold, and shooed the reluctant Toyokawa Shoko into the bathroom.]
Because you need to take care of your mentally challenged father, the apartment you rented is quite dilapidated, but at least it has a bathroom.
So, after preparing your T-shirt and shorts for Toyokawa Shoko, you went outside.
Outside the door, the Miku ...
Please don't hurt Xiao Xiang.
[Thinking about how Nagasaki Sase didn't leave all night, Misaki Hatsune mustered up her courage and wanted to use this incident to stop you from harming Toyokawa Shoko.]
You didn't answer, you just stared directly at Mitsuko Miku, as if to say, "How dare you talk to me like that?"
[If it weren't for Misaki Miku's actions, Toyokawa Shoko's mother would still be alive, and her father wouldn't have been kicked out of the house.]
This concept exists in Miku's mind like a thought imprint, because of your actions behind the scenes.
Compared to me, didn't you have a better chance of getting close to Xiangzi by using your sister's identity?
[Faced with your words, Miku Miku, her face hidden, sadly left.]
Afterwards, back in the room, Toyokawa Shoko had already washed up and changed into your T-shirt and pants.
The loose-fitting clothes concealed the girl's figure, preventing any view, but soon, Toyokawa Shoko, who had burst into tears in your arms, told you how good the food was at the Toyokawa family home.
Is Xiangzi hungry?
[When the Uber delivery order was brought out, the yakiniku bento from Jojoen made the young lady, already aware of the rising prices, nervously push it away—Wakaba would get her pay docked.]
On her way back earlier, Toyokawa Shoko learned what kind of work you've been doing lately.
After leaving the karaoke bar, you started driving for Uber.
[Because I caused you to lose your job and not even get paid for your part-time work, and now your life is even more miserable than Toyokawa Shoko imagined.]
【Wakaba and I will go together to apologize to the person who took the order and try to get them to stop complaining.】
[Faced with a kind young girl, the darkness in your heart is momentarily dispelled.]
[However, the heavy rain and the sight of Toyokawa Shoko, her eyes red from crying and shivering with cold, make you unwilling to give up such a good opportunity.]
So, you refused anything more important than Xiangzi, so let's consider this a long-awaited reunion~
With your comforting words, you and Toyokawa Shoko enjoyed this long-awaited fine cuisine together.
The warmth of relying on each other made Toyokawa Shoko feel like she was dreaming.
[These past few months, you've been putting on a brave face, making Toyokawa Shoko want to rely on you a little longer.]
However, their peace was broken.
【Wakaba, I brought some ingredients】
[After receiving no reply from Toyokawa Shoko, Nagasaki Sosei, her eyes red from crying, stayed at the ring for a long time, until all the people who had suffered so much left.]
[Afterwards, heartbroken and devastated by the loss of something important, Nagasaki Sase thought of you.]
The girl, wanting some comfort, went to the supermarket and bought some groceries.
[In the past, Nagasaki Sase had done this many times.]
But this time, she met Toyokawa Shoko.
Looking at Toyokawa Shoko nestled in your arms with such happiness on her face, Nagasaki Sosei thought of that person who had previously said, "I want to disband Kulai Xiku"—why?!
[Nagasaki Sase couldn't understand why Toyokawa Shoko, who had previously so resolutely declared that the group would disband under such difficult circumstances, was now nestled happily in his arms.]
Similarly, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't understand it either. Nagasaki Sase was still asking Shoko, "Who is Shoko?" before, but now he's showing up at her door with groceries—how many times have you done this so skillfully?
[Toyokawa Shoko's gaze lingered on the keys in Nagasaki Sase's hand for a long time, then she snuggled even closer into your arms.]
Having lost her mother and with her father reduced to a state of despair, Toyokawa Shoko has no one left to rely on but you.
[Afterwards, through your explanation, Toyokawa Shoko understood your relationship with Nagasaki Sase.]
"Thank you for taking care of Wakaba all this time."
Standing under the dim light of the old house, Toyokawa Shoko bowed deeply to Nagasaki Sōse before her.
The wooden floor was damp from years of neglect and had a faint musty smell. You could hear the echo of rainwater dripping from the eaves into the puddles outside.
The blue-haired girl's hair was still dripping with rain, and her obviously ill-fitting T-shirt clung to her body, but her movements were meticulous and without any shyness.
Even though the clothes were loose, the neckline had slipped down to the collarbone, and the sleeves were long enough to cover the fingertips.
Toyokawa Shoko's bow remained upright and elegant, as if she were standing in a banquet hall rather than in this dilapidated living room.
When the blue-haired girl raised her head, her eyes revealed a seriousness and clarity that she had not shown before. Her voice was low and slow, but every word was spoken clearly.
"Wakaba is my only family... Thank you, really, thank you for taking care of Wakaba all this time."
The room was quiet, with only the soft sound of rain hitting the window and the ticking of the second hand of the old clock in the corner.
Nagasaki Sōse remained silent for a moment, only looking at Toyokawa Sōko, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity in her embrace.
Previously, Toyokawa Shoko addressed Nagasaki Sosei as "soyo," but now she addresses him as "you."
What this signifies is self-evident at this moment.
"Xiao Xiang, no, I didn't mean to withhold information about Ruoye."
At this moment, Nagasaki Sase panicked. She felt that if she didn't explain herself clearly, both Toyokawa Shoko and Ichinose Wakaba would leave her.
So, pleading and crying, Nagasaki Sase grabbed Toyokawa Shoko's hand. However, she forcefully pulled it away.
"Xiangzi, I told Soyo not to tell you."
Despite Ichinose Wakaba's explanation, Nagasaki Sōse's actions were undoubtedly a betrayal to Toyokawa Sōko. She thought back to how worried she had been about Ichinose Wakaba during that time, searching everywhere for her.
As a result, Nagasaki Sase clearly knew, but he pretended not to know and watched her run around everywhere.
Even if it wasn't Nagasaki Sase's fault, Toyokawa Shoko couldn't forgive this behavior at this moment—do you know how much I longed to see Wakaba?!
When faced with Toyokawa Shoko's words, "I don't want to see you," Nagasaki Sawa felt as if the sky had fallen—"Don't, don't hate me, Shoko!"
As long as Xiangzi is willing to forgive me, as long as Xiangzi is willing to return to Kulaixiku, I am willing to do anything!
Unfortunately, Toyokawa Shoko once again shook off Nagasaki Sase's hand—"You're just a student, what right do you have to say that? What right do you have to carry my life on your shoulders?"
Chapter 155 The Bad Woman's Soyo
[Nagasaki Sasuke walked away dejectedly, her clothes completely soaked by the heavy rain outside.]
Previously, the coldness in Nagasaki Sase was even more unbearable than the physical cold.
[And as you got up, preparing to follow, under Toyokawa Shoko's surprised gaze, you said, "Soyo, it's dangerous for you to follow alone."]
[Enable augmented reality mode?]
【Yes. 】
The perspective shifts, and a girl soaked in the rain appears in front of Ichinose Wakaba. Her dark blue school uniform is drenched by the rain and clings tightly to the thin shoulders of the brown-haired girl.
Nagasaki Sase's hair was already soaked, and water droplets dripped down her forehead, obscuring her eyes, but Ichinose Wakaba could sense that she was being looked at.
And so, under the girl's gaze, Ichinose Wakaba raised the umbrella in her hand, walked over, and tilted the umbrella toward her.
"You'll catch a cold like that, soyo."
From Nagasaki Sase's perspective, she was simply walking, head down, letting the rain slide down her eyelashes, as if trying to wash away the troubles in her mind.
Footsteps were drowned out by the rain, hoping someone would catch up.
However, when Nagasaki Sōse thought of Ichinose Wakaba and Toyokawa Sōko snuggling together, he felt it was impossible.
But she was still hoping.
And now, that expectation has come true.
"So refreshing—!"
The voice cut through the rain, familiar as ever, tinged with a hint of panic.
Nagasaki Sase paused for a moment, then slowly turned around.
The figure holding the umbrella was running towards them, splashing tiny water droplets at their feet. Their breathing was slightly rapid. In order to catch up with Nagasaki Sosei, the figure didn't even bother to take shelter from the rain.
You really caught up with me.
In that instant, Nagasaki Sase felt a slight tightening in his chest, as if touched gently by something soft. Looking at his slightly disheveled appearance and the umbrella in his hand, askew from the rain, she suddenly smiled.
It wasn't the kind of polite smile you give to others, nor was it a self-deprecating smirk.
