The socially anxious girl doesn't want to stick to me!

But the Sky Palace responded lightly with one sentence, which blocked all the other party's words.

"——Then I'll bring you here next time."

she said.

Igarashi Sakuraba suddenly lost her temper... She wished she could leave this place right now and never come back again. Because it was really torturous! Whether it was a noisy place or a very familiar passerby, Igarashi Sakuraba could never accept it.

Words can deceive, but actions can never deceive.

The fanatical girl noticed the aerial temple that cut in between the two of them.

She silently suppressed her disappointment and asked, "Your friend?" And for some reason, she felt that this newcomer... had an inexplicable sense of familiarity?

"Yeah." Instead, it was Sky God Palace who responded eagerly: "I'm her friend. How about you? I don't think I've seen you before. Let's go, it's time to go back. It's getting late. If it's any later, the dormitory head Fuji Miracle will be checking the rooms."

...Although asking.

only,

No patience to listen to the fanatical girl's answer.

He just wanted to leave here by pulling Igarashi Sakuraba. The fanatical girl noticed it, but she didn't say much either, because she wasn't very familiar with Igarashi Sakuraba.... But she was still a little unhappy.

Igarashi Sakuraba was pushed away again by external forces.

……

She was just about to leave here.

But he noticed the lost expression on the fanatical girl's face again, and couldn't help but hesitate -

just.

Thinking about it.

Deciding to pour out his hesitation, Igarashi Sakuraba stopped and said, "Hey... Can you sign an autograph for her? She's your fan... and she really, really likes you."

The Sky Temple stopped.

Youyou replied: "First, my name is not Hey, my name is Sky Palace - second, it's okay."

There was no rejection either.

The fanatical girl was stunned.

Until the other party took off half of his coat, revealing the iconic logo and name inside - [!Monad]. Immediately, she was ecstatic, absolutely ecstatic! She finally knew where the familiar feeling came from, because the other party was her favorite !Monad! The unhappiness of hearing that !Monad was not open for business was gone, and what she had was even more happy, the only signature in the audience!

It was really a pleasant surprise.

The fangirl hadn't expected that at all.

…I just randomly put together a booth and unexpectedly met !Monad’s friend, and she even asked !Monad to sign for her.

People are really nice!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look over with gratitude.

……

Igarashi Sakuraba wiped his nose.

What are you looking at me for?

Chapter 64: Go forward boldly and don’t look back

It was early morning to end this meaningless farce.

4:30 AM.

Igarashi Sakuraba once again saw the basketball court at four in the morning, but the purple and gold jersey was gone.

……

But so be it.

Tell the truth——

This trip to the nightclub was extremely strange.

Correct.

Inexplicably, it was inexplicably, this was also Igarashi Sakuraba's first intuitive impression. Inexplicably, he ran to the nightclub to watch the performance of the Sky Shrine, inexplicably he was approached by the social bull, and the final autograph plot, was it meaningful? Although the autograph plot was a little pretentious, the man looked at him with admiration in the end, but, just like what happened tonight, whether it happened or not, it didn't matter -

A sense of confusion arises from this.

Igarashi Sakuraba didn't know the purpose of the Sky Shrine.

She just silently looked at the other person's profile - profile. The same sharp angles outlined the arc. The Sky Palace supported his face with one hand and looked at the scenery flashing by outside the window. As mentioned above, it was almost five o'clock in the morning. The sky was slightly bright. There were already pedestrians walking on the streets of Tokyo, and the loneliness and emptiness after staying up all night were also born.

"What's the matter?" He seemed to notice the gaze.

The Sky Shrine turned to look at Igarashi Sakuraba and asked with a bright smile.

Igarashi Sakuraba pursed his lips: "No...it's okay."

"But do you know?" Seeing her say this, Sky Palace withdrew his gaze and looked out the window, but he did not end the topic and continued to talk, chattering: "I can read minds."

I thought it was something else.

Igarashi Sakuraba laughed when she heard the other party's answer. She also said that she had a system.

——There really is a system.

Seeing Igarashi Sakuraba burst out laughing.

Sky Palace was in a good mood. He raised a finger and said lightly, "Well, let me guess. You must be thinking... what's the meaning of tonight? This kind of thing!"

……ah?

Igarashi Sakuraba's delicate body trembled.

How did she really guess it? Could it be that the Sky Palace really has the ability to read minds?

bah bah bah.

How is it possible? It must be just a coincidence... He tried to comfort himself.

but.

When Sky Shrine saw Igarashi Sakuraba's reaction, she knew that she was right and smiled slightly again. She seemed really happy tonight. The bad girl had never been so bright before. Although she was called a bad girl, now she was like a sunflower that had shed its bad appearance, emitting her own light.

"Your expression is really easy to guess," she replied sincerely.

Igarashi Sakuraba thought to himself that he would try hard to have a poker face in the future.

Let the Sky Temple guess the riddle.

Although I didn't say anything.

but.

After organizing her words, Sky Palace continued to say that she was the protagonist tonight, "But, you know what? Life is meaningless. This is the theory I believe in. Birth, aging, illness and death, no more than a hundred years."

Igarashi Sakuraba was silent.

Just listen to the other party's output.

"What is meaningful? In what you do, some people are destined to become noble people and set their goals for it, while others are despicable. There are many different things and people in this world, and I just want to live in my passion, use my favorite calculations, and get everything that should belong to me."

"That's all."

"So, I will be happy to perform on stage, and I will also be happy to win the competition and train hard."

"Love what you love... This is a very cool thing, and I hope you can do it too. I don't want to say, look how cool and passionate I am when I got on stage and led the whole audience today. No, I just want to say that loving what you love makes me very happy!"

"Next I will try to win the games I am going to play."

"Well—that's it."

……

The taxi driver couldn't help but look through the rearview mirror at the two people who were talking about the principles of life.

Said there were two people.

There is only one person, because Igarashi Sakuraba is always the one being output, the silent one.

"Perhaps, I should know what your personality is like." Sky God Palace said again: "However, I also want to say that no one will pay so much attention to you. It's just that you have given yourself a spotlight effect, making yourself feared."

"It's also possible that I'm just being sentimental. Just treat it as just being sentimental."

Talking and talking.

Still saying this with a smile.

His face was filled with a bright smile, which was particularly inconsistent with his shark teeth.

And Igarashi Sakuraba finally stopped being silent.

"Thank you," she said sincerely.

This was the most sincere reply, without any other meanings, just the most sincere thanks, wanting to thank the Sky Palace in front of him. The other party not only comforted him, but also worried that he would embarrass himself, saying that he was being sentimental, and the gentleness could overflow through the screen.

And then.

It was the car driver who started the conversation and got into the subject.

"I probably shouldn't talk to you...but I want to say this." He cleared his throat and continued, speaking or humming, "Go forward boldly and don't look back."

"This is what my mother sang to me when I was still young. She encouraged me in this way. It's normal for you to encounter some setbacks at your age. But life is not a straight track. There are high mountains and the lowest valleys. Just... move forward boldly and don't look back."

Talking about the dearest mother.

The taciturn drivers all have an obvious gentleness.

——Perhaps this world is not as full of thorns as Igarashi Sakuraba imagined.

...but.

Gentle and kind. ——"Thank you." This was the answer Igarashi Sakuraba repeated again and again.

She clenched her fists.

I don’t know what to say or what to think.

The Sky Shrine smoothed the silent Igarashi Sakuraba's hair. He smoothed her hair that was messed up by the wind...behind her ears, without making any other unnecessary movements or speaking, and then he fell silent.

Give her some space to be alone.

Igarashi Sakuraba just looked at the tall buildings outside the window.

"Win the Junior Cup..." Sky God said, "I just think that you deserve to stand higher than this...even, stand at the highest place."

Igarashi Sakuraba did not remain silent any longer.

Just nodded slightly.

Won it: "I will win."

Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely will win!!!
