I won't be a loser.

The three of them sat quietly in a car and slowly arrived at the underground parking lot of the port apartment. After getting out of the car, they entered the elevator and went up to the apartment that belonged to them. Then they led Sanye into the apartment together.

A guest room had been prepared for Sanye. Feng Xiaochun rested early and went into the bedroom. Xianren accompanied Sanye to chat about some things. After calming her fluctuating emotions, Xianren left her room and returned to his own bedroom...

Thank you all for your monthly tickets and blades! Thank you all for your recommendations!

Everybody's Sage: 407. The raging storm unfolds, a three-way duel!

Sanye, who was sitting in the room, was unable to fall asleep peacefully after Xianren left. She sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking towards the door. After her brother left the room, she was like a puppet, without any movement.

It was more than half an hour later that she slowly came back to her senses. She looked back at the exquisite and gorgeous room and couldn't help but pursed her lips slightly.

Compared to her hometown in Itomori where she has always lived, a luxurious room like this one, full of modern style, is her ideal and dream home.

But for some reason, she didn't feel too happy at the moment. Instead, she felt an indescribable loneliness. She sat alone in this room, with her hands on the bed sheet, gently stroking the smooth bed surface, and biting her lips.

"Tomorrow, I will go back..."

She sighed, took out her phone from her shirt pocket, opened the contact list, looked through the list of her contacts, then slowly put it back in her pocket and unbuttoned her shirt...

The wise man had already lain down in the bedroom, closed his eyes, and was about to rest, but his chest suddenly felt heavy.

When he opened his sleepy eyes, he saw his wife, wearing gray and black soft pajamas, sitting on him. Her petite body and gentle posture did not make him feel any pressure. He half-closed his eyes and looked at his wife, not knowing what was going on.

"It's time to rest, let's go to bed early."

"Shouldn't the wise man go and accompany her?"

"Who?"

His thoughts had become quiet, and he had almost given up thinking. He squinted his eyes and looked at Feng Xiaochun in front of him lazily, without thinking about the "she" the other person was talking about, and asked back casually.

"Three leaves."

"You're not a child anymore. You shouldn't be afraid of sleeping alone."

After the wise man finished speaking, he was about to close his eyes, but he suddenly felt something was wrong in his mind. He opened his eyes and looked at Feng Xiaochun who was sitting on him.

"What do you mean?"

"You're leaving Tokyo tomorrow, aren't you going to say goodbye to her?"

"I'll send her off tomorrow and say goodbye. Don't think too much and get some rest."

Looking at his wife in front of him, he stretched out his hands, placed them on her slender waist, hugged her to the side, and lay down on the bed. He covered her with warm and soft bedding, and without thinking about those troublesome things, he closed his eyes and said no more.

Faced with the wise man who remained silent, did not give any direct answer, and just closed his eyes and prepared to rest, Feng Xiaochun did not continue to ask questions. He also closed his eyes and rested quietly.

After a quiet night, Xianren, who had not done much activity, woke up early, walked out of the room, prepared breakfast, and woke up Xiaochun and Mitsuha.

The three of them had breakfast together and then took a car back to the apartment. After tidying up a little, the driver first took Kento and Koharu to Toyosaki to go to school, and then took Mitsuha to Tokyo Station.

When they got out of the car, the combination of Feng Xiaochun and Xianren attracted a lot of people's attention, but for Xianren who was about to leave Fengzhiqi, there was no need to hide it.

"Is it okay to come to school with such fanfare like this?"

"Hmm? I guess it doesn't matter. I'm leaving Toyosaki soon anyway. Even if people find out, it won't have much of an impact and will be forgotten soon."

"But not everyone will forget about this, right? Aren't you worried about them asking about you?"

"It feels like it doesn't matter. In this school, there are only three or four people I care about."

Blinking and looking at Xianren's calm expression, she felt that Xianren today was in a different state from yesterday. She stared at Xianren for a while and did not continue asking.

Instead, Xianren looked at Futaba Rio, as if he wanted to ask some questions, but he quickly looked away without asking.

"How is Yoshida Saki?"

"What did you do to her?"

Futaba Rio raised her head and looked at Xianren, with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

"Hmm? No, I just wanted to ask about her current situation. I don't go there often, so I don't know much. After all, she's a girl who likes me, so it's normal to pay a little attention to her personal situation, right?"

"You know she likes you, but you're so reluctant to make a move on her? If you take the initiative, she won't refuse, right?"

"Gratitude and liking are two different things. Considering her situation, it would be a bit excessive if I did something to her. Besides, I don't have any special feelings for her. I just treat her as... a friend."

Faced with Kento's words, Futaba Rio naturally would not believe that it was such a simple matter, but it was also a fact that Kento did not take any action against her.

"It's still the same as before. It seems like he's always been very careful."

"I don't have much confidence. It's normal to feel uneasy after something like that. Never mind, let's take it slow. There are still two months left. Suddenly, I feel a little reluctant to leave."

"Then stay?"

"I'm a little tired of it."

Futaba Rio stared at Kento and remained calm at what he said. This was Kento's usual style, and given his personality, his words did not surprise her at all.

Xianren, who was sitting in the laboratory, raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the classroom. Then his gaze slowly drooped and landed on Futaba Rio. He was about to say something, but felt that there was nothing to talk about. The interests and hobbies of the two... seemed to be slightly different.

"After you go to Chiba, are you planning to live there?"

"I'll probably rent an apartment. Buying one seems a bit troublesome, and there are also handling fees. If housing prices continue to rise, I might consider buying a house in Chiba."

"luxury."

"By then, I'll come back to Tokyo occasionally, but definitely not every day. It takes more than an hour to go back and forth, and I can't stand it every day."

"I can also go to Chiba to find you."

"Welcome."

When talking about Chiba, the two of them suddenly had a common topic. They had not fully considered some things in Chiba, so it was a good thing to have someone to think with them. So they analyzed the preparations needed to go to Chiba with Futaba Rio in front of them.

Mitsuha left Tokyo, and without her sister by her side, life seemed to become quiet for Kento. Mitsuha's personality was a bit noisy, but with her by his side, life became more colorful for Kento.

But after Mitsuha left Tokyo, he felt that his life had returned to its original silence, and he was wandering around in a triangle route centered on Gokokuji Temple, Koishikawa, and Minato Ward.

Today I will stay with her for a while, tomorrow I will stay with her, yesterday I was with her...

I gradually began to feel mentally exhausted. Every day after school, I couldn't help but go to a quiet little coffee shop alone and sit there for a while.

Just like a man who doesn't go home after work and hides in his car to smoke alone, the feeling of desolation and loneliness lingers quietly in the heart of a wise man.

If he can't live with the girl he likes and get along with her, then living apart and keeping a distance from her like they do now can be considered a punishment for his 'philanthropy'.

'Let everyone meet?'

The wise man, who was drinking coffee, suddenly had an idea, but was silent for a moment. He felt that this matter was a bit risky, and he didn't know how many people could accept it... It seemed that basically everyone could accept it.

There are quite a few people who know that he is married.

'A larger residence?'

The wise man had some thoughts in his mind. He probably thought about the direction he needed to work towards during his next period. He finished his coffee, sighed softly, and began to prepare himself in his heart...

2 month 11 day.

It was a legal holiday, but only one day, and the 12th was Friday, so he had to go back to school. Xianren, who had a rare free time, came to Mito Yuge's residence. Looking at Mito Yuge who was at home on vacation, the two looked at each other for a while, and then quietly looked at the blue sky outside the window and the occasional white birds flying by.

No one spoke, but neither of them disliked the quiet atmosphere.

"At the end of next month, I will be leaving Tokyo and heading to Chiba. I won't be in Tokyo for a long time."

"Ah."

"Do you want to go with me?"

Mito Yuge was a little surprised, and her eyes fell on Xianren. Facing Xianren's question, she looked at the person in front of her and opened her mouth. In her heart, she was naturally very happy to follow Xianren and go to Chiba together, but her path to further studies was in Tokyo.

"I plan to target Musashino."

"Yeah, those in Chiba are still a little bit worse. I really asked a strange question."

"No, no..."

Xianren's eyes fell on Mito Yuge. He could always feel a sense of tranquility from the girl in front of him that was not in line with this era and this city. Perhaps this was why Xianren would help her and stay with her.

Different from the intoxicating gentleness and comfort of Futaba Rio, Mito Yuka gave him a purer feeling, like a mountain spring, able to wash away the restlessness and anxiety in his heart.

Leaning on the edge of the bed, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Time passed like this for the two of them until evening. Seeing the dusk and sunset glow, Xian stood up and picked up Mito Yuka...

"Are you going to college?"

During the holidays, it was a rare opportunity to play games with Akihisa Yoshii and Yuji Sakamoto. When I heard that Kento would leave Tokyo and go to Chiba to attend university at the end of this semester, Akihisa Yoshii was not paying attention and was taken away by Kento with a series of moves.

"Uwaaaa! Damn it! That's so despicable!"

"Who told you to be distracted?"

Sakamoto Yuji, who was sitting nearby with a Coke in his hand, also looked at Xianren with a hint of surprise.

"Are we going to Chiba after this semester?"

"It's more or less like that. When I get there, I'll still go back to Tokyo, but it will take three or four years."

"in this way."

Yuji Sakamoto didn't really care. They would have to separate sooner or later. He just didn't expect that Kento would be ready to leave here at the end of his second year of high school. It's not that he couldn't do it, but he felt that such a thing was a bit too troublesome. His current life was very comfortable and there was no need to leave high school so early.

"Does anyone else know?"

"Nakano should already know, but the others don't."

"You didn't tell Sawamura?"

Kento, who was playing the game, did not give an answer, but Yuji Sakamoto knew the answer. He didn't understand why the other party didn't tell Sawamura. It seemed that Sawamura cared about Kento very much.

But after all, it was someone else's emotional issue, so Yuji Sakamoto didn't speak rashly. He just sat quietly on the sofa and watched the two of them PK.

"Ah—I lost! Damn it!"

3:1

Xianren was slightly ahead, Akihisa Yoshii stood up and handed the controller to Yuji Sakamoto, and the two of them re-selected the map and characters and started the competition.

"Are you going to live in Chiba from now on?"

"No, I'll have more free time than in high school, but traveling back and forth between Tokyo and Chiba is such a waste of time. I'll probably only come back during the holidays."

Faced with the answer from the wise man, Sakamoto Yuji relaxed a little, but the speed of pressing the buttons on the controller increased suddenly. Compared with Yoshii Akihisa, Sakamoto Yuji was more troublesome.

Yoshii Akihisa, who came back with a Coke, looked at the two people fighting and his eyes fell on Xianren.

"There must be a lot of mature and lovely older sisters in college."

"..."

"..."

For a moment, Kento and Sakamoto Yuji fell silent, not knowing how to respond to Yoshii Akihisa's novel perspective.

After staying there for three hours, when it was almost dark, the wise man invited the two to go out for dinner.

Yoshii Akihisa, who spent almost all of his living expenses on games, was naturally very happy. Seeing Yoshii Akihisa's reaction, Sakamoto Yuji did not refuse. They went to a nearby ramen restaurant together. The three of them ordered three extra-large tonkotsu noodles. Kento added a little chili, and Yoshii Akihisa sprinkled a few more sprinkles.

Looking at the two of them, Sakamoto Yuji hummed and sprinkled two more spoonfuls on Yoshii Akihisa's portion.

"How childish."

Xianren picked up the chili powder that Yuji Sakamoto had put down and poured some more.

"Tsk."

By the end, all three of them had their ramen covered in a sea of red. After exchanging glances, they all gulped it down with strange sounds of "Mmmmm" and "Ouch!" Yoshii Akihisa kept pulling out tissues to wipe his snot and tears.

Sakamoto Yuji was sweating all over, his face flushed red, and Xianren wasn't much better. He couldn't help but grin and breathe in the cold air. He picked up the water cup and poured water into his mouth...

Chiba New Story: 408. A new beginning, a brave man embarks on a journey

Chiba, walking on the way to Chiba University, Xianren, who was still unfamiliar with this city and didn't know anyone, quietly came to the campus of Chiba University, entered the classroom where he was going to attend class, and sat down in an empty seat.

……

Two months have passed since February. Kento, who originally lived in Tokyo, followed his original plan and ended his life in Toyogasaki after completing his second year of high school and went to Chiba University.
