There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

Kato Megumi responded expressionlessly. Although her facial expression did not change, she felt more and more uncomfortable and shocked in her heart.

I responded to him without thinking just now, but this kind of conversation seemed to have happened before... not long ago, but also like it was a long, long time ago... in my previous life?

Why did he suddenly feel even more disgusted? Even his stomach was churning, and he felt like vomiting?

"Sorry, sorry." An Yilun scratched his head embarrassedly and asked awkwardly: "What's the matter?"

"..."

The girl did not respond to the other party's question, but frowned slightly, as if she was in deep thought.

Ever since she graduated from elementary school, she felt that she had forgotten something. Maybe it was something, maybe it was a person... She instinctively felt that what she had forgotten was very important, maybe even more important than her own life.

At first, she would be very sad...but gradually, even the feeling of sadness disappeared.

Since middle school, she often had strange dreams. Sometimes she would wake up in shock, and sometimes she would burst into tears for no apparent reason. But when she opened her eyes, she could not remember anything in the dream, not even the vague image.

Today, it was the first time that I had such a strong sense of déjà vu when I was awake. Is it because of Amai? I see him in the classroom every day!

He dresses very rustically, has few friends, and plays games as soon as get out of class is over. I heard from the American students in the back row that he is restless in class, almost never paying attention, and secretly reading novels every day...

But the strange things that happened to me were not just seeing Amai-san today.

Since elementary school, strange things have never stopped happening around me. I am often ignored, but every time I am ignored, even if the consequences are serious, it is resolved by some inexplicable force.

For example, during the summer vacation when I was in junior high school, my parents were preparing to go to my hometown in the countryside to visit the graves of my grandparents. But before I went out to go to the toilet, my father drove away.

But when she called her father, a pleasant ringtone did ring on the coffee table. When Hui was about to call her mother, her father had already driven back because he had forgotten his wallet in the living room. At that time, she clearly saw him put it in his chest pocket.

For example, when I went to the aquarium with Liumei, they were queuing up to buy tickets while I was queuing up to buy ice cream and drinks...

But on their way back, they had an argument with the ticket inspector and ran to the ticket purchasing point angrily to question him. The reason was that the tickets they had just bought were missing a corner inexplicably and they forgot to buy their own tickets.

Fortunately, the admission ticket was damaged, otherwise I would have to wait in line for a long time again.

For another example, on the day of duty, I stayed in the indoor gymnasium to organize sports equipment. The physical education teacher forgot that he was still in the small warehouse and directly locked the door of the gymnasium. But soon, he unlocked the door and returned to the gymnasium because he forgot his coat on the coach's seat.

It seems like there is some force that has been protecting me and reminding all those who ignore me.

It also seemed that I subconsciously ignored the fact that I was being protected?

Why is this so?

The occasional awkward feeling, and the familiar Aki-san...

"Kato-san?"

While Hui Chang was in a daze for a long time, her direct gaze made Aki Tomoya feel a little embarrassed.

The boy 'woke up' Hui, and suddenly he noticed that the girl's eyes were on the game console in his hand, so his eyes lit up and he tentatively handed over the PSP.

"Do you want to try..."

Aki Tomoya's sudden action did interrupt Hui's silence, and when faced with the game console handed over, she did not take it, but subconsciously asked: "Aren't you dead?"

"..."

"..."

It was quiet, eerily quiet. Even the boy next to Tomoya Aki looked over with surprise.

"Eh?"

"Dead, dead?"

The boy looked at Hui in astonishment, but in this confusion, his enthusiastic eyes gradually turned cold. Finally, he quietly took back the game console, pushed the frame and continued to play the game.

From his disdainful look, it can be seen that Amami Tomoya already knew what the girl wanted to say. She probably said the wrong thing. It was not "Aren't you dead?" but "Go die quickly, you otaku!"

He was used to this kind of thing. It turned out that girls didn't understand games. Three-dimensional women were not worthy of experiencing the beauty and ultimate touching moments of this world.

At this time, Hui Ye realized that she had said the wrong thing, but instead of apologizing, she felt that being disliked by Aki Tomoya was an insignificant matter.

She turned her head woodenly and stared at the front seat in a daze.

Why did I say this? Why did I not feel the slightest bit of guilt after saying such harsh words to Aki-san?

Tomoya Aki...died???

Suddenly, Hui felt a headache, and the inexplicable pain mixed with a huge dizziness swept through her brain. Her breathing began to quicken, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.

She lowered her head in a daze, her slender hands tightly grasping the plastic armrest...

"Click."

The sudden crisp noise, accompanied by the sound of swallowing saliva, brought Hui back to reality. She turned her head to look at Aki Tomoya in confusion, and lowered her head again following his frightened gaze.

I saw that my hands were tightly gripping the armrest of the seat, and this thick plastic with extremely high hardness was actually crushed by my bare hands!

The confused girl stared blankly at her slender palms and murmured in a low voice: "I must have forgotten something... very important."

……

After more than five hours of trekking, the bus finally arrived at the hotel booked at the Nagoya tourist attraction.

Before getting off the bus, the teacher noticed the handrail that was crushed by Hui, but maybe it was broken to begin with. As for Amaki Tomoya, who was hesitant to speak, he lowered his head under the calm gaze of the girl.

The tour is planned for tomorrow, so there will be free time in the afternoon. The premise is to keep communication open and form a group of at least three people, and then you must return to the hotel before dinner.

Although they were very tired after the long journey, Risa and her friends decided to go for a walk in this unfamiliar city, thinking that if they caught up on some sleep in the afternoon they would suffer from insomnia at night.

As soon as the four Chinese students studying in the United States walked out of the hotel, the fatigue on their bodies inexplicably disappeared. They fully demonstrated their girlish nature. They would buy and try almost any unfamiliar snack they saw, and would silently look at the local specialties and occasionally buy some.

They were as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline, and they didn't feel sick at all like they had just gotten off the bus...

But no one noticed that although Hui was as quiet as usual, there was a hint of complex emotions in her eyes.

She followed her three friends silently, looking at their cheerful backs, and felt the strange feeling she had on the bus again.

Lonely?

The girl frowned in confusion. Why did she feel lonely? She was shopping with her friends, but she felt like she couldn't fit in at all. They were having so much fun now. If she approached them and started a conversation, they would definitely be shocked.

Rumi would complain in shock, saying that she had scared her again, Tomoko would tease her and call her an idiot, while Risa would hold her forehead with her hand, looking helpless.

"It's weird."

Hui stared with bright eyes and murmured in confusion: "Why didn't I have this feeling before? I'm used to being ignored by everyone..."

The girl stopped walking, and her best friends who were talking and laughing gradually walked away. But just as they were about to disappear from sight, Risa, the "temporary team leader", suddenly got a ring on her phone. While answering the call, she also glanced at Rumi and Tomoko.

The next second, the three of them became panicked. Risa hung up the phone in a hurry and began to look around nervously.

Tomoko took out her cell phone, pressed a few buttons quickly, and then put it to her ear. When the ringtone in her backpack rang, her best friend in the distance looked over, walked through the crowd, and made eye contact with the tourists and Hui.

"Is this a call from the teacher to check on me? Why would he suddenly call to ask about my situation?"

Seeing her best friend walking back angrily, Hui's eyes were surprisingly calm. "Is it that the power that has been protecting me has started to work again? It is that power that makes the teacher worried, so I called the leaders of each group to inquire about the situation..."

The three best friends walked over quickly. Although Rumi looked angry, the concern in her eyes was not fake. Tomoko and Risa took her hands and asked softly if she was feeling unwell.

But at this time, Hui was certain that she was protected by an invisible force that was protecting her from harm.

Risa and the others' faces suddenly became blurry, and the strange feeling of dizziness on the bus came over them again.

Chapter 8.5 Stupid Senior... I Miss You (Second Update, K)

The night is hazy and the warm street lights illuminate the quiet park.

A short-haired girl in a white dress sat on a bench. She quietly listened to the noisy chirping of insects in summer, stared at the warm street lights, and watched the moths fluttering around the lights.

Today is the third day of the training camp. We are still in Nagoya, but the students took the bus back to Tokyo in the morning.

Yes, she was ignored again.

When Risa and the others in the same room started packing, Kei also packed her things, and when they left the room, she followed them.

But when everyone gathered at the door, Hui suddenly remembered that she had left her cell phone in the room, so Hui clearly told the teacher that she wanted to go back to get her phone and asked her to wait a few minutes before running back to the hotel.

However, when Hui returned to the hotel entrance, she could only see the back of the bus driving away.

Why is this happening? When I told the teacher about this, he nodded and told me to hurry up, but it was only about five minutes of waiting for the elevator to go up and down and looking for the phone.

As the bus gradually disappeared from sight, Hui suddenly recalled a key point. When she was talking to the teacher, he was holding the roster and preparing to call the roll, and subconsciously put a check mark behind Kato Hui's name... So when calling the roll, he accidentally skipped it.

At that moment, the familiar feeling of being abandoned swept over her body again. In her daze, the girl also recalled some other things.

……

When she returned to her room, she gave the backpack to the temporary caretaker. Now she only had a cell phone. This time, the power to protect herself did not work.

Hui lowered her head slightly and looked at her turned-off phone, and smiled helplessly, "Maybe if I could turn it on now, there would be countless missed calls in my phone."

"Why do I feel like my life is fake? I've experienced a lot in the past two days, and visited many places of interest, but it's like a slide show. In the last scene, I just arrived in Nagoya, but now I'm left behind, alone in this strange city?"

Suddenly, she pulled out a pendant from her neck, took it off and quietly admired it in the palm of her hand.

This is a pure white jasmine hairpin. This thing should be on the head, but she has been treating it as a pendant since elementary school, hanging it close to her chest.

Hui stretched out her fingers and carefully held the hairpin in her hand. Under the warm yellow light of the street lamp, this cute little thing also exuded a warm color.

"The street lights are also warm in color, because they warm every lonely person, so we must be stronger."

The girl gently turned her hairpin and murmured to herself, "Xiao Xiaohui, the word 'loneliness' is really too lonely, because it doesn't even have an antonym."

Yes, Hui remembered, because she had been in the park since the morning, and she had been thinking about her life all day.

"That ghost face was scary, and my head hurt a lot. The night in the kindergarten was very dark, and I hated the dark..."

Clear tears rolled down her eyes. The girl, who hadn't drunk any water for a day, had chapped lips and her voice was a little hoarse.

"But, ever since I heard the word 'crybaby', I'm no longer afraid, and I don't hate the darkness anymore... because in the darkness, there is your presence."

Yes, I remembered it.

Stupid brother...how could I forget you? Why would I forget you?

Memories of kindergarten, warm embraces, doting eyes... my tenth birthday, a cake that was sweet to the heart, and the words "goodbye" written in extremely gentle handwriting.

All of them disappeared, along with the memories. The only thing left was this hairpin in front of me, which I had no idea where I got it from, but subconsciously believed was very precious.

"In fact, you have always been here, right? It is you who protects my strength."

Hui tightly grasped the pendant, looked around at the empty space, and asked softly, "You are here, right? You must be by my side and can hear what I say, right? Because you said you would accompany me as I grow up."

The girl reached out her hand to wipe the tears from her face and forced a sweet smile, "I haven't grown up yet. I just turned sixteen this year, and I still have two years to become an adult."

She looked at the hairpin quietly, and said softly as if she was confessing: "When I thought about it during the day, I thought I was suffering from delusional disorder. But this hairpin reminds me all the time, and makes me tell myself again and again that you really exist. You can't not exist, because..."

Because, if you don't exist, then what is the point of all the love I've had for you for so many years? Am I in love with someone who doesn't exist?

There may have been only dependence in kindergarten, but that dependence had actually turned into love a long time ago, and I fell in love with him completely on his tenth birthday.

But as a primary school student at that time, I didn’t understand what love was. I just felt that I was forgetting something very important and a very important person.

But what else could I do at that time? I could only cry, cry hard...

"You are real, aren't you?"

Hui turned her head again and looked around at every dark corner of the park, the children's slide, the children's beach, the jigsaw puzzle, the small swings...still no response, everything was quiet.

"I remember now. You can show up now. Come out, stupid brother!"

Still without a response, the girl lowered her head in disappointment and whispered, "Observable universe, Laniakea Supercluster, Virgo Cluster, Local Group, Milky Way, Orion Arm, Gould Belt, Local Bubble, Local Interstellar Cloud, Oort Cloud, Third Planet in the Solar System."

"Earth, Eastern Eurasia, Northwest Pacific Ocean, Japan, Tokyo, Bunkyo Ward, Mingqing Kindergarten... This is where we met... I remember it, I remember it... cough cough..."

I forgot to charge my phone last night, and it turned off the moment I got it.

Her wallet was back in her small backpack. The penniless girl hadn't had any water for the whole day, and her throat felt as if it was smoking.

Although every word she said was torture, she still stubbornly muttered to herself: "Come out... didn't you say we could meet again? Didn't you make an agreement? You big liar... cough... ..."

"I need your help now. I've been abandoned again, alone in a strange city. You're the only one who won't ignore me... because you said you're a ghost who protects good children."

But suddenly, Hui's difficult coughing suddenly stopped, and she lowered her head and looked at her side in a daze.

A bottle of drink and a piece of bread appeared out of nowhere on the seat. The bread had chocolate filling, and the oolong tea drink was steaming, with the pull ring also broken open.

Hui stared at the food that appeared beside her in disbelief, her watery and lost pupils shining with surprise and joy.

After she carefully put the hairpin on her neck, she stretched out her hand tremblingly.

As if she had found a treasure, she held the bread and iced oolong tea in her palms. The corners of the girl's mouth slightly raised, and her eyebrows curved like crescents. On her usually very plain face, a brilliant smile appeared.

That look was also infatuated.
