Society fears that young people don’t want to be literary godfathers

Looking at all the middle-aged people with slovenly beards who are still working hard and struggling, who firmly believe that tokusatsu will have a future, and hope that the great heroes of their childhood can stand up again, the young man did not say much, just spoke one after another He drank the drink in the cup - when the party was over, when he saw everyone waving goodbye to him and his friends, the young man seemed to have come back to his senses, and finally bowed to everyone to thank them.

And it was just when the teenagers were about to leave.

Takano Koichi's voice sounded at this moment:

"Xiao Li!"

"........"

Turning his head slightly and looking at Koichi Takano who stood up and waved to him, Mochizuki suddenly understood:

"What, what's wrong, Grandpa Takano?"

"I say, winter is over and summer is here."

Takano Hiroshi had a loud voice and a kind smile:

"Next spring will come as promised - whether it is the next college entrance examination or life, please continue to work hard."

"........"

My heart was slightly touched.

Mochizuki was stunned on the spot for a while, and then he nodded heavily as if he had come to his senses:

"Thank you very much Grandpa Takano for your continued care - I will come back to Tokyo to see you next spring."

Bring my Waseda University admission letter.

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

Although his health is getting worse and worse, he coughs a lot more than in the first few months, and his complexion is actually getting worse - but when he heard the young man talking about coming to visit him in the future, the old man's smile also followed. emerge.

Although there were many things he wanted to tell him, until the end, he just smiled and watched the boy and girl disappear before his eyes without saying a word.

..... Next time we meet again, we should also bring a smile.

........

Mochizuki was born and raised in a not prosperous town, where there are yellowing bricks, ancient temples, kind people and friends who always stand behind him - it is precisely because of this that the flame in the young heart It will always be as hot as ever.

Perhaps at the first moment, he never thought that one day he would leave his hometown, travel to a distant place with his friends, meet so many seniors in the industry, and be on the set of "Ultraman Tiga".

What was the mood at that time... Mochizuki himself can't remember clearly.

However, he clearly recalled the moment when he left Toyama Prefecture for the first time and went to Tsuburaya Studio. There was a blanket of white in all directions, and snowflakes fell one after another, obscuring the road ahead and seeming to cast a haze on the young man's heart. .

But...it's summer now.

The snow and confusion in winter have melted away under the rising sun, and the street scene outside the window has gradually become clearer. At this moment, everything in the town returns to the young man's eyes.

The train has arrived.

Carrying his luggage and bidding farewell to Tsukawa Yu who said he wanted to go out for fun, Mochizuki and Xu Yuhuai strolled through the summer streets together.

........ The completion of the filming of "Ultraman Tiga" symbolizes the end of a stage.

In the blink of an eye, I have reached the age of 17. It seems that there is not much time left before I truly grow up~

Mochizuki is about to go back to school and enter her senior year of high school. She is about to worry about the college entrance examination and university, and she always feels an inexplicable emotion.

Turning back and looking at Xu Yuhuai in front of him, the young man's voice sounded in the silence:

"...Huaizi?"

"Ok?"

The girl, who was slightly stunned, seemed to be immersed in some strange emotion, raised her head slightly:

"What's going on...what's going on?!"

"Speaking of which, you are in your third year of junior high school."

Pulling the suitcase, Mochizuki's tone changed somewhat:

"...How about, what kind of high school do you want to get into?"

"What kind of high school do I want to get into..."

Gently holding his chin, Xu Yuhuai snapped his fingers and said slyly:

"Of course I am going to Momoyama Garden and becoming your junior school girl - that's weird ("▔□▔)!You are going to college!Wouldn’t it be silly for me to take the Momoyama Garden exam again? "

"...a little bit."

Unable to help being amused by Xu Yuhuai's reaction, Mochizuki frowned:

"I would like to take the Waseda exam...Although I have been out of school for a few months and I don't know if I can do it, but I will try my best and hope everything will end well~"

"Waseda... Brother Mochizuki's goal is really powerful."

Pouting his lips slightly, Xu Yuhuai said:

"How can I put it this way? I wanted to go to Tokyo in high school - after all, although Toyama Prefecture has beautiful scenery and everyone is very simple, I still want to be an actor. If I don't go to a big city, it will be difficult for me to go further."

"Indeed."

Gently holding his chin and nodding his head silently - after hearing Xu Yuhuai explain that he wanted to go to high school in Tokyo, Mochizuki Ri also said this after a moment of silence:

"However, after you enter high school, you will probably be even busier with your studies and acting career - I don't know if I will be able to walk the streets of a small town as carefree as you are now."

"........"

The things that matter most to you.

The girl's heart tightened, but her voice remained the same as before:

"Brother Mochizuki said this, so that after we both graduate, we will never be the same as seeing each other again (/"≡_≡)="

He glanced at Yue Li.

Xu Yuhuai, who was a little afraid of separation, also pretended to be calm at this moment.

And it was precisely when he saw Xu Yuhuai's reaction that Wang Yue cleared his throat and said:

"We won't meet again, maybe not - but if we wait until next year, we may have fewer opportunities to meet."

"...This, this is indeed..."

Although he wanted to deny it, after thinking carefully about Mochizuki's words, Xu Yuhuai finally just sighed and admitted:

"After all, you said that after Ultraman Tiga, you don't want to make any more TV series...and if you think about it carefully, Brother Mochizuki's character is indeed not suitable for the film and television industry, and may be more suitable for behind-the-scenes work. Is this how work works?”

"Yeah...Although I haven't decided whether to continue acting in the future, but after Diga, I should focus on other things. When we go to college, we will have different paths. I’m afraid it will be difficult to get together~”

"...Indeed."

This was the first time he heard Mochizuki talking about such a realistic matter. Xu Yuhuai was silent for a moment and could only nod slowly:

"Tokusatsu dramas usually recruit amateur or new actors, and there are many seniors who will never engage in acting careers after filming is completed... Tsugawa brother is a sports student, and Mochizuki brother works in music, novels and comics. We have to be busy. After the filming of the crew is over, the three of us friends who came out to film together from Toyama Prefecture may really go our separate ways~"

"Maybe~"

"But... damn, why do you say such sad things??o?!"

Barely controlling the loneliness rising in his heart, Xu Yuhuai's voice showed considerable dissatisfaction:

"I just said goodbye to the crew today, and I still feel a little uncomfortable - is this how you treat your acting partners?_?!"

"No... Mainly because I just said goodbye to everyone recently, and I suddenly felt something."

"Okay, okay! I understand (●?ˇ_ˇ?●)!"

Hearing Mochizuki take the initiative to talk about the future, Xu Yuhuai's expression was actually very nervous - but perhaps it was due to the inexplicable emotions in his heart. In addition to being nervous, the girl's words also contained some unwillingness:

"I now know that the three of us will probably never be together in the future, and I also know that you will most likely only be able to accompany me here - so, you are going to throw me aside and tell us in advance that we will only be strangers in the future. ?"

".......not like this."

Mochizuki stretched slightly, but Mochizuki's voice was quite serious:

"Although we may be separated in the future, we will still be very, very good friends...at least in terms of our relationship, I will work hard to maintain it."

"...Is this, like this?"

Caught off guard by Mochizuki's sudden words, Xu Yuhuai's mind went blank for a moment...it took a while before he seemed to realize that something was wrong, and his voice showed some unpleasant emotions:

"......No! What on earth are you trying to say! One moment, he said that we would say goodbye soon like everyone on the crew, and the next moment, he said that we would always be very, very good friends - —This is totally contradictory! Even if we can’t be around each other all the time, we can still be considered good friends!”

"...Of course forget it."

Waving his hands gently, Mochizuki looked at the little girl in front of him who had a quick voice and was much shorter than him. Mochizuki's voice was quite calm:

"The values ​​and content expression of contemporary youth literature are always based on relationships or "bonds" between people - but in fact, youth is not always like this."

"When you grow up, you will understand: Compared with the glue-like distance, maintaining a certain distance is actually the most gratifying thing - because being inseparable is not evidence of a good relationship, and people can actually enjoy the perfect relationship. Loneliness and distance, waiting for the next reunion."

That's it.

Mochizuki paused for a while, then slowly spoke:

"...Do you still remember what I told you when I was on the hospital rooftop and when I sang on the street that day?"

"...?!"

He never expected that Mochizuki would suddenly mention this word at this time, and Xu Yuhuai's expression changed instantly.

"What, what's wrong?"

"Sometimes I always think about the past...When I think about things related to you, I always feel a sense of miracle."

Sit up straight and sit beside Xu Yuhuai. The young man snapped his fingers:

"If you really want to start reminiscing, you and I may have known each other for several years, but the days you and I spend with each other are actually very short. Every time we finish filming, it will end, just like a dragonfly touching water. , leaving almost no trace in peaceful daily life——"

"But...even so, in my ordinary daily life, your appearance always represents the arrival of some kind of strange experience: whether it was when I went to the hospital to watch the sunrise a few years ago, When you were sitting on the ground listening to the songs I wrote in the past, or last year when I was riding a bicycle and met you while filming a commercial, or even acted with you in Ultraman Tega, your appearance gave me a feeling that can be called a miracle. The feeling, even though it was short-lived, was unforgettable for me.”

"'Yi Qi' means a lifetime, and 'Yi Hui' means meeting only once. So Yi Qi Yi Hui means: A person may only be able to meet the other person once in his life, so he should treat the other person in the best way. .”

That's it.

Mochizuki looked at the girl in front of him and couldn't help but snorted:

"Speaking of which, in the past, I always faced you with a one-term relationship, always thinking that I would never meet you again next time - but as time goes by, I see you smiling again and again. When we were in front of me, I realized half-consciously that even if we didn’t meet for a long time, every farewell might be the last time we meet again. We should not be separated strangers after meeting together. , but should be old friends who laugh when we meet each other."

"........"

Hearing Mochizuki's sudden words.

Xu Yuhuai's expression was slightly startled.

"Although we are always separated and difficult to get together, in the daily life full of miracles, maybe we can become good friends who can make jokes with each other. It is because of this idea that I slowly let go of the worry that friends are perishable. I slowly get closer to you... because I no longer worry about the chances of us meeting each other. As long as I can still see you laughing and being silly at me, I suddenly feel that everything doesn't matter."

"Yes, yes..."

With a red background lingering around her ears, the girl's voice trembled:

"...It's so beautiful to say it, but we can't maintain such a laughing and scolding relationship if we really rarely see each other again!"

"....Don't worry, our fate is not something that can be shaken so easily."

"I don't believe it! Compared to a woman like me who just met by chance, Brother Wangyue wouldn't take it seriously at all—"

"Will not."

Seeing the obvious change in her voice, the girl in front of her even started to feel a little unconfident.

Mochizuki's voice had more emotions:

"Because I found that I would be very sorry if I couldn't watch you grow up."

"........."

Go on with this sentence.

Xu Yuhuai's heart also trembled.

The scene of parting with Grandpa Takano and other behind-the-scenes members of the crew came into view. Looking at the boy who was always regarded as a junior by her, but in fact always took care of her, for some reason, the girl's eyes turned red unconsciously.

Turning his head stubbornly, deliberately not wanting to show his feelings in front of the young man, Xu Yuhuai looked at the blue sky.

........It's really strange.

Looking into the distance like this, watching the rising sun burning, the girl always had the illusion that she had not left the rooftop of the hospital that night, but was still staying where she was.

then.

The girl choked and said:
