Seeing him finally come back, Fate asked, "Did you eat out? Can I make something for you?"

"I haven't eaten yet, so you don't have to cook. I'll take a shower and then go out to eat."

"I'm not afraid of trouble."

Zhao Yang patted her head and said, "No need. I also want to eat out sometimes."

"OK then."

Fitt nodded and said no more.

Not long after, Zhao Yang walked out of the apartment again.

Instead of riding a motorcycle, he put his hands in his pockets, walked slowly to the tram stop, and took a tram to the bustling Fourth District.

After eating at a random restaurant, he returned to the station.

But the tram he took did not go to the outskirts, but to the third district.

"Anyway, just go and take a look."

Zhao Yang's real purpose of going out to eat was to observe those universities in person.

The ride wasn't long, and he soon arrived at the central station in the North Third District.

The third district is the university district, which is not as lively as the fourth district.

The four central stations in the third district are surrounded by quiet and beautiful areas, full of elegant places such as bookstores, coffee shops, and dessert shops.

The Central Park here is also a quiet place with beautiful scenery.

The surrounding college students like to hang out and rest here.

...For example, the New Tokyo University of the Arts in Kita-3 has a considerable number of college students who like to come here to practice music or singing.

Like now.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, when Zhao Yang passed by the park, he vaguely heard a pleasant female voice:

"On the other side of the gray sea and sky, there is a fertile land without fighting. Who told me..."

His pace couldn't help but slow down, and his mind seemed to be hooked by this unique voice.

"Still singing so late?"

This thought flashed through his mind, and he wanted to just walk away and not disturb her.

But he suddenly felt that the song was somewhat familiar.

"Holding the water certificate, I endure all these hardships..."

This is Lux's song, Water Proof.

But the one singing was certainly not Lux.

But...

Zhao Yang was attracted by the singing and subconsciously walked into the park.

———This is clearly his solo push, Inori’s voice.

Filled with curiosity, he walked into the park to open a box.

"Flowing broadly and gently, reaching the silent other side..."

Zhao Yang walked briskly, following the sound.

Please, don't be a tank—

He said in his heart.

His steps were silent and without any pause, and he used the skills of hiding his breath that he had learned in the demon world in this difficult situation.

Passing through trees and across flowers, Zhao Yang arrived at the quiet lake.

"No matter when, one day, I will definitely hold your hand..."

Zhao Yang saw it.

A pink-haired girl stood under the street light, singing with her eyes closed.

The soft light shone on her, making her look as if she was bathed in holy light, appearing extremely holy.

at the same time.

I, remember it!

Memory fragments swept in, and Zhao Yang saw images of this girl.

The most eye-catching thing is obviously the sword drawn from the chest.

...Well, it seems she's pretty good with a gun, too?

When the song ended, the girl slowly opened her eyes and immediately saw Zhao Yang.

"..."

"..."

Zhao Yang and the girl looked at each other.

Before he could speak, the girl spoke first:

"Zhao Yang?"

"?"

What's going on? Why was my box opened first?

241 Persuasion

Zhao Yang was surprised: "Do you know me?"

The girl nodded: "Before, you invited me to Miss Lux's concert..."

"You saw me then? Why didn't you talk to me?"

"There are so many people around you, no chance..."

"I didn't expect you to be so socially anxious."

She said silently: "I'm just not good at talking to people."

"Oh."

Isn’t that social phobia?

Zhao Yang was a little confused, but didn't say it out loud.

"..."

"Oh."

Seeing the girl staring at him, he asked uncomfortably, "What's wrong?"

"I do not know what to say."

"Um...are you free? Want to chat?"

"What do you want to talk about?"

Seeing that she didn't refuse, Zhao Yang walked closer to her.

As he got closer to her, he noticed that she was a bit taller than Fate.

He asked, "You are practicing singing here, are you a college student nearby?"

"New Tokyo University of the Arts, Music Department."

"Isn't that a super famous university? Inori, you're so amazing?"

Zhao Yang asked in surprise.

"Yiyi."

The girl listened to him silently and replied.

Zhao Yang reacted: "Your name?"

"Correct."

"It's a nice name. Well, since we are so close, I should call you Qi-chan, right?"

"It doesn't matter."

The girl, Yui Kirei still had no expression.

"Then Qi-chan, you can just call me by my name."

Yui tilted her head and said, "I'm already calling."

"Then keep calling...

Well, now that we have met, we can get down to business."

Zhao Yang's expression suddenly became serious.

"what's up?"

Yui was a little confused.

He said with great sorrow: "You are updating? It's too slow!"

“…The environment is too noisy, and I have to take college entrance exams, so it’s hard to record songs.”

"What about now? You don't have to take the college entrance exam anymore."

"I need to study, and my part-time job is far away. I don't have time."

Yui's words were so realistic that Zhao Yang was speechless.

"What kind of job do you do?"

Zhao Yang asked.

“Part-time job at a convenience store.”

Zhao Yang chatted with her for a few minutes and got a general idea of ​​her condition.

She is an orphan, living in hardship, and needs to work to buy equipment.

"I think I understand, um..."

When Zhao Yang heard this, his old habit of wanting to collect all the people he wanted to enlighten came back.

He began to think about what reasons he could have for kidnapping her.

Yui Qi didn't urge him, but just observed Zhao Yang with interest.

After a while, Zhao Yang, the clever guy, made a suggestion: "If you think the convenience store is far away, why don't you come work for me?

Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to force you. After all, it's suspicious for me to come up and talk to you like this."

"I believe you."

But Yui said: "You have helped me a lot, you are a good person."

Zhao Yang agreed and said, "I am indeed a nice person... Let's put aside the gossip. My office is still short of a receptionist to receive guests. Do you want to try?"

"front desk?"

Yui repeated it.

"Yes, my office is in the East Fourth District, which should be quite close to your school."

Yui said calmly: "I know the location, and I also know where your apartment is."

"How did you know?"

Zhao Yang frowned, wondering: How did she know everything? Did she already have me completely taken advantage of?

“You wrote it on your Twitter.”

Yui said as a matter of course.

"…Well, I really haven't hidden it."
