Kitahara Sora silently cleaned up the dishes and prepared dinner for one person and placed it at the door of Lingyin's bedroom. He knocked on the door politely but got no response. He could only put the tray at the door and told her to go do the housework.
I don't have to go to school tomorrow, so I'll mop the floor first. Well, then wash the clothes... There are no clothes to wash, so the girl washed them the same day she changed them, and then I'll wipe the house with a rag. Okay, it's very clean, so it must have been wiped just now.
There was no need to look at his own room. It should be very tidy except for some layers of dust, so Kitahara Sora had nothing to do.
After being busy for more than half an hour, Kitahara Sora could only come to the door of Lingyin's room again. After heating the dishes, he knocked on the door again, but there was still no response. He shouted inside a few times but there was no answer. But how could he not eat? He could understand the psychological gap of this girl. At best, she was just in a bad mood. When someone has always treated you badly and suddenly changed his attitude towards you, she would definitely not be able to bear it. What's more, she still hated herself so much, and still took care of herself for so many years.
Beiyuan Kong didn't know what he could do for her. She didn't lack money, and after dealing with those bad guys, no one would bother her anymore. But no matter what, he couldn't let her suffer anymore. At least he had to treat her well during the seven days he was here. So Beiyuan Kong apologized secretly, reached for the door handle, and planned to force his way in.
But with just a little force, the door lock opened with a click. Maybe she forgot that she usually locked her door no matter whether she was in her room or not.
After entering the room, I felt it was dark. It was already dark. She didn't turn on the lights or open the windows. The light from the corridor shone in, illuminating her back. After walking in, I found that she was lying on the table, crying herself tired and fell asleep.
He sighed softly, placed the food beside her, then took a blanket from the cupboard and covered her shoulders. Just as he turned around, her shoulders trembled and the girl woke up faintly.
When Bei Yuankong walked to the door, she asked softly, "Who are you? Are you Bei Yuankong, or Yin Yun..."
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I will take good care of you now, and no one will bully you anymore."
Kitahara Sora paused and continued, "I usually don't make promises easily, but I will definitely fulfill the promises I make. You can continue to hate me, scold me, or even hit me, but you can't stop me from taking good care of you. I'll put dinner there first, remember to eat it, I'll come to check in half an hour, if you don't eat it I'll heat it up for you again, if you pour it out, then I'll serve it to you again. If you keep pouring it out, then I'll make it for you again, as a midnight snack. There are still ingredients left, I can keep cooking until tomorrow morning, if that doesn't work I can go to the 24-hour convenience store to buy you a bento, you must eat."
Kitahara Sora's voice was very gentle, without any ups and downs. He seemed to be willful, but there was an unquestionable majesty in it: "Leave all the housework to me these days, you just need to go to Sobu High School honestly, and you don't have to worry about anything else. You can refuse, you can resist, but it's meaningless. I will let Yukinoshita forcibly transfer you to another school, and you will continue to go to Chunyang High School. They will not let you enter the school again. I mean what I say. Also, if you don't eat, I will really do this meaningless thing for a whole night, on the premise that you can play with me for a night. Can you bear not to sleep? If you don't eat, I won't let you sleep peacefully."
Kitahara Suzune stared at Kitahara Sora blankly. Since the lights were off in the room and he was facing away from the light, she couldn't see his face clearly. But at this moment Kitahara Suzune really felt that he was different. It really felt like a different person. She knew Kitahara Sora very well.
He always looks gloomy and lifeless. He will not tell his parents when he is bullied at school. No matter how much tender love his parents give him, they cannot change his mind. He always speaks so little, and there seems to be a faint aura around him. If it must be named, that aura can be described in one word.
That's 'sorrow'.
Once, Kitahara Suzune even heard her mother crying secretly. She cried and asked her father if they had done something wrong. Why was the child like this? Was it a mistake to adopt him into their family?
She has always hated him. From the beginning, when she was young and her values were not yet fully developed, she hated him for taking away their parents' love. When she grew up a little, she no longer had such childish thoughts, but her parents were gone. She still hated Kitahara Sora because he did not fulfill his responsibilities as an older brother and even asked her, his younger sister, to do all the housework. Except for washing his own underwear, he would just leave his clothes there after taking a shower and leave them there unattended. If she didn't help him wash them, he would go to school in dirty clothes.
For a while, he had a strange smell on his body, and I couldn't stand it anymore, so I helped him wash his clothes.
He is a scumbag. He will never feel what others are thinking and will only think about himself. In other words, he deserves the bullying. Anyone who sees him will hate him from the bottom of their heart.
But why did it happen suddenly? Why did he do a 180-degree turn? He could actually cook, and his food looked good. He stood up for himself and punished the bully who bullied him. He could even cut off the bully's finger without batting an eyelid. Was he originally this kind of person?
No, no matter how much a person changes, it is impossible for him to change so much. So even though Kitahara Suzune felt it was unbelievable, she still chose to believe the words of Yukinoshita Yukino and Kitahara Sora. But can they stop hating each other if their souls have changed?
Lingyin's eyes turned red again, and tears unconsciously slid down her cheeks.
"Why...why are you suddenly so nice to me? My life is actually over."
"Not yet, you still have a long way to go." Kitahara Sora shook his head and turned on the light. The soft incandescent light made Ling Yin squint her beautiful eyes subconsciously. He continued, "You were just bullied. I have already solved that problem for you. Tomorrow I will investigate who else has bullied you. None of them can escape. You are only a freshman in high school. I believe that as long as you have a positive attitude, your grades will gradually improve."
Kitahara Sora walked in slowly, and gently placed his palm on her head: "You will go to a good university, meet a guy you like, and then have a relationship, or you can go to Sobu High School and find a good boy, and experience new and strange experiences that you have never experienced before. After graduation, you can enter the society or be a housewife. It's up to you. You still have a long life. Mom and Dad are gone, and I will take care of you like they did in the future."
He smiled bitterly: "The premise is that I can continue to live, so, Lingyin, I will introduce myself to you again now."
"Nice to meet you. My name is Kitahara Sora. From now on I'm your brother. Please take care of me in the future."
Are you reintroducing yourself? Do you want me to get to know you again? Or are you really no longer yourself?
In fact, after her parents left, Suzune wanted to have a good talk with Kitahara Sora several times. She wanted to tell him that she could try not to hate him, and hoped that he could cheer up, and they could work together to live a good life.
But the other party completely ignored her and did not contribute anything to the family. It was like her parents had brought home a disgusting parasite. He exploited his parents and himself. He did not know how to be grateful and did not even have normal human emotions.
Why does someone like him appear in the world!
But, have you become a 'person'?
He appeared in front of me when I was most desperate, drove away the demon that bullied me, talked to me seriously for the first time, and made serious promises to me. Has he really changed? In fact, I have had enough of this kind of life. I want to die. Maybe dying like this will be happier than living. Maybe I can see my parents again.
But, but, but!
Have you really changed? You didn't lie to me, did you? Even if you lied to me... it doesn't matter...
Thinking of this, Kitahara Suzune couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears. She kept wiping her tears and sobbed, "Is it true? Are you really not him? Is it true..."
She cried very sadly, perhaps she had hated Beiyuan Kong to the point of numbness, and hatred had become indifferent when it reached its extreme. She had long ago fantasized and hoped that he could become a better person, and sometimes all she wanted was an apology.
She also started to curse him, and her curses were very unpleasant, asking him to get out, get out of her house, but no matter what he said, the abnormal 'brother' just ignored him. She didn't cook for him for a while, and he refused to eat until he fainted from hunger in the room.
Later, Lingyin got used to it. She knew that Kitahara Sora must be a person with personality defects, and she could only go on like this. Maybe when she or he became an adult, she could get rid of him completely.
But today everything changed, and developed in the direction she had imagined. She was actually very afraid of being alone. When she was little, she needed her mother to tell her stories every night before she could fall asleep. When her parents were not at home, she could only hold her doll and talk to herself. So after her parents left, she at least felt that she was not alone at home. Although her brother did not look like a living person, at least he was not alone.
He said, "No, it hasn't been like that since half a year ago. I wanted to talk to you several times, but Lingyin seemed to hate me, so I didn't force it."
"You won't lie to me, will you? I don't actually believe what you said, but you've never lied, because you haven't said anything to me... But am I really not alone anymore? Can I study hard now?"
"You can study with peace of mind, Lingyin. You can make new friends or have a relationship. But I have to approve who the other person is. I am just like you. You are my only relative."
Kitahara Suzune wiped away her tears vigorously. Her small nose was red and looked very cute: "Then..."
"Then you have to eat first."
Kitahara Sora rubbed her head: "Or do you want me to feed you? I don't mind."
"No, no need."
When the other party asked this question, the girl suddenly panicked, quickly picked up the bowl from the table, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone: "I, I can eat by myself. I'm a high school student."
Kitahara Sora sighed again. This girl looked too much like Yixing Liuli, whether it was the slightly upturned eyes that looked a bit sharp or the teardrop mole, it was just like the real version of her. But the temperament and personality were very different. Liuli was proud and indifferent, and this cold personality was very similar to Yukino, who also had a poker face all day long and was called the "Ice Queen".
But Lingyin only looks aloof, her real personality is that of a delicate little girl. She bears responsibilities and pressures that she shouldn't have at her age. She is too kind, so kind that she is a little stupid. She is the kind of "saintly" character that Kitahara Sora read in novels before. Although she sometimes says very unpleasant things and often scolds her original body, she has done what she should do and also what she shouldn't do. If she were her, she might have killed that guy long ago.
It was also because of her that the original body did not die early and persisted until her arrival.
She was wrong. The original Kitahara Sora had no personality defects. He was just a purely selfish scum. He would work hard for himself and would not consider other things because he knew that Kitahara Suzune would not leave him alone and would not watch him die. That was why he exploited her so unscrupulously...
Kitahara Suzune started eating, taking small bites of rice with the dishes.
She picked out the green peppers while eating stir-fried meat with green peppers, and only ate the meat. Although Kitahara Sora picked the large green peppers that were not spicy, she still didn't eat them. She couldn't change her little girl's habit of being picky about food, but she didn't look annoying, but rather cute.
However, she thought about it, put the green pepper back in the bowl, and stuffed it into her mouth in one go as if she had made up her mind. She has learned to be frugal, and she won't buy it on her own initiative because she hates it, but it would be a waste if she didn't eat it after cooking it.
She picked up a piece of braised pork and chewed it hard, mumbling with rice, her cheeks puffed up like a little hamster, and a drop of oil accidentally flowed down from the corner of her mouth. This scene almost broke Bei Yuankong's defense. How could there be such a cute girl, and she is his sister! The original body is so stupid! If such a person appeared in front of him, he would probably not survive for five minutes!
She probably hasn't had such a sumptuous dinner for a long time because she is blackmailed by those bad guys every month.
Even though Kitahara Sora came to this family, the food in the past six months has not been very good. It is usually the most ordinary omelette rice, or relatively cheap seafood, because Japan has abundant seafood, so it is cheap. What she eats the most now is vegetables. A small plate of vegetables has been eaten by her because she can't afford vegetables normally. This thing is much more expensive than meat here.
Kitahara Sora took out a napkin from the toilet, folded it and gently wiped the corner of the girl's mouth. The other party was obviously stunned, and her body trembled and she shrank back. After seeing that he did not take the next step, her cheeks blushed and she continued to eat the rice. She was afraid.
She was like a frightened little rabbit, having suffered too much grievance and torture. She had been holding on, but perhaps she could not hold on for much longer. If I had not shown up today, she would have been photographed by those female gangsters and uploaded to some website, and what I might see tomorrow would be her cold corpse.
Should I call Yukino and ask her to talk to Aunt Yukinoshita and step up the intensity? Let the three of them commit more crimes in the juvenile labor camp, or make someone cripple them, or even just kill them. Even if the Yukinoshita family is not convenient to do it, I can find a way to do it myself.
It was decided that all of them had to die! After all, what these people did was no different from murder.
Japan has laws to protect minors, but Kitahara Sora doesn't have such laws. If you do something, you have to bear the consequences. We are all human beings for the first time. It's not easy to live in this world. You don't know what you should do and what you shouldn't do when you are 16 or 17 years old? Why can you escape accountability just because you are young?
If this hadn't happened in the real world, Kitahara Sora would have killed them right there...
"Hiccup~"
Just when Kitahara Sora was daydreaming, a cute burp brought him back to his senses. Kitahara Suzune blushed, and was so shy that she didn't dare to raise her head.
The meal was so delicious, much better than what she had cooked herself, that she ate it without caring about her image, and only felt full after she had finished all the food.
"Finished?"
"Um--"
Kitahara Sora put away the dishes and turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he paused and said, "Go wash your face later and then you can rest. I have already washed your clothes. Your underwear is still in the special basket. You can wash them separately tomorrow. I will prepare your lunch box for tomorrow. As for Suzune, you can just report to Sobu High School tomorrow. A teacher will meet you at the door."
After saying that, Kitahara Sora closed the door and walked away without giving the other party a chance to reply.
As the footsteps faded away, the room returned to silence.
Lingyin stared blankly at the closed door, tears streaming down her face again.
I now believe that you are not him, that's great...
In fact, after my parents passed away, I wanted a brother. I am not so willful anymore, I don’t get angry as much as I did when I was a child, and I don’t need someone to read me stories before I can fall asleep anymore…
It's a good thing you're not him.
But why did you come now?
Chapter 8: Captain's Authority
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the gap in the curtains onto Kitahara Suzune's pretty face. The dazzling light made her frown slightly. She subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands and uttered in her sleep like a whimper.
She turned over and changed her posture, preparing to stay in bed for a while longer. However, she quickly stood up in a moment, turned her head to look at the alarm clock beside the bed, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and panic immediately dispelled her hazy sleepiness. She lifted the quilt and prepared to get dressed.
It's already half past seven!
I usually get up at around 5:00, so why didn’t the alarm go off today… No, I think I canceled the alarm on purpose yesterday…
Oh, yes, yesterday...
Kitahara Suzune stopped her panic. Were those things that happened yesterday true? Thinking of this, the girl's heart was in suspense again. So she put on her clothes and opened the bedroom door, and she heard the sizzling sound of frying coming from downstairs.
When I leaned over to take a look, I saw a figure wearing an apron tinkering in the kitchen.
"woke up?"
Kitahara Sora stuck his head out to take a look at the girl in cute pajamas with fluffy hair, then turned back to continue frying eggs: "You can have breakfast after you wash up. Sobu High School starts at 8:30, so there's still time. Put the lunch box on the table, don't forget it when you go out..."
She clapped her cheeks with both hands. It was real, not a dream or delusion. Yesterday, he forced her to turn off her alarm clock. He made dinner for her. Yesterday, she went home and took a shower and fell asleep on the table. He brought the meal to her room, and she cried out of grievance. He said a lot to her, but she almost forgot it all. She only remembered that he said he would protect her and would not allow anyone to bully her anymore.
At that time, I still hated him, but I still accepted him.
As she thought about it, Kitahara Suzune felt wronged again and wanted to cry again, but now was not the right time. She could only pat her cheeks gently to calm down and then go to the bathroom to wash her face and rinse her mouth.
When she came to the living room, Kitahara Sora was already sitting at the dining table waiting for her.
"It's just simple milk and bread. I added a fried egg. After eating, go to school and welcome a new life."
Lingyin stared blankly at the breakfast in front of her. If time permitted, she would occasionally eat at home before going to study, but most of the time she chose to go hungry in the morning. The pressure of life was all on her shoulders, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Don't like milk?"
Seeing his sister's stunned expression, Beiyuan Kong frowned and muttered: "I remember you sometimes drink milk... If you don't like it, forget it. Don't force yourself to drink it. I'll go get you a glass of water. Do you want juice or..."
"No, no need."
Just as Kitahara Sora stood up, Lingyin called him in a panic: "Um, I drink the milk, no need to bother."
The girl took the milk cup and took a big gulp. She drank too quickly and coughed violently, and the milk sprayed out, all over the table. She subconsciously wanted to apologize, but saw that Beiyuan Kong had stood up. He took a rag from the kitchen and wiped it clean, then looked at her seriously.
"Don't be so restrained. You were the one who did all of this before. To put it another way, you've taken care of me for half a year. To be honest, we're already acquaintances now. We'll continue to get along this way in the future. Please get used to it. You deserve it."
Lingyin lowered her head, took the tissue handed over by Kitahara Sora, and silently wiped the milk stains from the corners of her mouth. He was very strong, and there was no emotion in his tone. There was a feeling of not being able to refuse, but it just gave her the illusion that he was very gentle. Shaking off the messy thoughts in her heart, she began to eat the bread in small bites. The bread was sandwiched with sweet and sour strawberry jam, just like her current mood, very complicated.
After stuffing the last bite of bread into her mouth, Kitahara Sora pushed the plate of fried eggs in front of her. The latter began to eat in silence. When she finished the fried eggs, she took the initiative to drink the last half cup of milk in the cup.
Kitahara Sora pushed the lunch box in front of her again: "I have never made a Japanese bento, you can open it first and give me your opinions. I will try to improve it tomorrow. What's inside..."
"No, don't say it..."
After Lingyin summoned up the courage to shout it out, she became hesitant again. After a long while, she managed to utter one sentence: "We'll know at noon."
In the past, when her mother prepared lunch boxes for Kitahara Suzune, she would never allow her to open them in advance, because she would secretly throw away vegetables she hated, such as green peppers, but sometimes she would put food she liked in them. So she developed a habit, and every time she opened the lunch box at noon, she would feel excited.
If I have to make an analogy, it's the feeling when playing a card drawing game. If you draw a green pepper, it's a black card, and if you draw your favorite food, it's an SSR.
It has been a long time since anyone made a lunch box for her. She knew what she had made, so she hadn't experienced this feeling for many years. When someone made a lunch box for her again, Lingyin somehow did this childish thing.
Beiyuan Kong knew this because he had seen this scene when he retrieved his original body's memory, so he just nodded and said nothing.
"Okay, Sobu High School is closer than your previous school, so you don't have to rush." Kitahara Sora handed her the schoolbag and continued, "Go home on time in the evening, I'll prepare dinner for you, and I'll go out and buy a phone later. We'll exchange email addresses when you get home from school. I lost the phone before."
The girl silently put on her schoolbag, walked to the entrance and put on her shoes. After opening the door, she paused, as if she was having a fierce inner struggle. It took a while before her lips moved.
"I'm leaving now."
"Be careful along the way~"
-------------------------------------
Yukino stared blankly at the surrounding environment, with twinkling eyes, as if she had entered a dream, it was incredible, because this place... was too beautiful.
She has arrived at the game space. Unlike the chaotic white when she entered before, this place has completely changed. She is now in a forest, but it is just an ordinary forest and it certainly won't make her feel such a shocking beauty.
Because this forest is like a forest in a fairy tale, no, it's even more beautiful than the forest in a fairy tale!
The ground is covered with emerald green grass without any gaps of yellow soil. The flowers all over the world are colorful but not dazzling because of the green embellishment. Looking ahead, there is a green island surrounded by a clear stream, and a carpet covered with flowers extends in a spiral to the center.
The stream was clear, the water was gurgling, and from time to time, unknown small fish would jump out of the water lively. There were strange trees all around, and spiral-shaped trees were floating in the air. The sound of birds' laughter and singing could be heard from the branches above.
There are also several towering trees around, whose branches block the sky. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, shining on the body, making people feel extremely relaxed both physically and mentally.
