She was full of vigor just now, but suddenly she fell on the pillow like a puppet with its strings cut, and fell into a deep sleep.
There was no way, too much had happened today and she was too tired.
Preparing for a trip, saying goodbye to friends, meeting the mysterious "Shiro," entering the human world for the first time, heading to the beach, and finally visiting a convenience store, where I befriended a human cosplaying as a demon...
These incredible things constantly stimulated Yuyi's brain, and now she can finally calm down.
The night deepens...
I don't know how long it took, but Yuyi turned over like a kitten, breathing sweetly, and at this moment...
"Click."
The car shook slightly and the sound of the door being locked was heard.
Yu Yi was very sensitive to such sounds. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and got up from the quilt in a daze, with a few pink hairs sticking up on her head.
She looked towards the driver's seat and found...Ye Shi was gone.
"Yashio..."
Yu Yi murmured lazily and looked out the window.
The car was parked in a parking space near a convenience store. The light was sufficient and at least I could see things clearly.
Next to a vending machine not far away, the mechanical light illuminated a tall woman, it was Yoshito.
She bent down to pick up the coffee from the food compartment, strolled in the deserted night, and slowly walked to the bench next to the street light and sat down.
"Ye Shi...can't sleep..."
Yu Yi dragged her aching body to the car window, reached out to touch the cold glass, and stared at Ye Shi sitting on the bench. Her vision gradually became clear.
"..."
Ye Shiqian took a sip of coffee and then put it on the seat next to him.
Under the moonlight, she slowly bent down like a withered plant, her elbows supporting her knees, her fingers intertwined, and her blood-red eyes revealed sadness.
Yu Yi sat in the car, took a breath of cold air, and her pupils contracted violently.
She seemed to have never seen Ye Shi like this before.
This is... what loneliness looks like.
What's going on?
“…”
Ye Shi sat on a bench, collecting her thoughts, the sea breeze ruffling her hair. At this moment...
"despair"
There was movement from the direction of the car.
Ye Shi was shocked and quickly stood up and ran over as fast as he could.
"Who?"
With a strong hostile tone.
"Wha-meow?! I-I just..."
The first thing that caught Ye Si's eye was Yu Yi who was about to get off the car and her frightened expression.
"Aren't you asleep..."
Ye Shi slowly breathed a sigh of relief and asked with red eyes filled with complicated emotions.
"I'm sorry, I just..."
Yuyi placed her hands on her chest and looked up into Ye Si's eyes, unsure how to answer.
Noticing the look in his lover's eyes, Ye Shi probably knew what was going on. He sighed silently and put a coat on her.
"Let's... chat for a moment."
...
...
The chirping of summer insects is accompanied by the sound of nearby waves.
The cold railings feel rusty and must be from many years ago, but on the other side of the railings is a fascinating scenery.
"Is that... a human city over there?"
On the other side of the sea, it is a city that never sleeps.
The dazzling sunlight cuts through the night sky like a giant diamond, and even the sea surface reflects the bright sunshine.
"Yes, the city."
Ye Shi looked at the city across the sea, his red eyes revealing a strong sense of disgust, as if he was looking at something completely different from Yu Yi.
Yu Yi clutched the clothes she was wearing to prevent them from being blown away by the sea breeze, and just then she discovered...
"Over there, it's the Demon Festival."
A blazing bonfire was lit on the beach not far away, and a group of young people gathered around the flames, singing and dancing to their heart's content.
Yuyi remembered that the two human girls had said that they would hold a "Demon Festival" at the beach, but she didn't expect it to be so close.
"Want to go?"
Ye Shi leaned his weight on the railing, looked at the flames not far away, and asked Yu Yi.
Yu Yi was willing to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to communicate with humans who liked demons, but...
She glanced into Ye Si's eyes, shook her head, and refused:
"No, that kind of occasion is not suitable for me."
"Yeah."
Gradually, the sea breeze became stronger and stronger, and the sound of the waves became more violent.
"Yaito."
At this moment, Yu Yi finally mustered up the courage to ask:
"Do you...hate humans?"
The beach at night is completely different from that during the day.
It was a surging darkness, like a giant monster that was devouring something and crawling towards the land in the darkness.
The sharp sea breeze whistled in my ears, and the cold touch penetrated into my skin, making me feel very uncomfortable.
"Do you...hate humans?"
The questions raised by Yu Yi were like cold sea water, drowning Ye Shi's heart.
"I..."
Under the dim streetlight, Ye Shi slowly lowered his head, his red eyes dimming as if eroded by ink:
"I...maybe I hate it."
The sea breeze blew her long black hair.
Yu Yi noticed her sad expression, reached out to touch the cold railing, and her mood also became a little depressed:
"That's true. After being exploited by the bad guys for so long, it's only natural that Ye Shi would hate humans..."
She learned about the tragic past from Ye Shi's narration.
Ye Shi was used as a killing tool, running endlessly on battlefields around the world, participating in wars in the name of "peace", and after completely losing his usefulness, he was discarded as garbage.
She remembered clearly that when Ye Si recounted this history, his tone was very calm, as if he was showing a wound that had healed.
However, Yu Yi also knew that the trauma caused by those things would never disappear.
"I didn't expect to return to the human world again..."
Ye Shi originally thought that he would spend the rest of his life in the demon world, staying with Yu Yi until the end of his life.
But now, she returned to the place she hated the most.
This feeling is very uncomfortable.
It was like looking at a tombstone built by someone else. To humans, she was already "dead".
She was sentenced to death by the very humans she had tried so hard to save.
perhaps...
This is the ending that mankind expects.
In the end, after her "death", the world remained unchanged.
The city on the other side of the sea is still so dazzling, like an untouchable star.
On the other side of the light, in the invisible darkness, there are still countless dirty things surging, breeding terrible conspiracies.
Her existence is like a stone dropped into the Dead Sea, unable to create even a single splash.
"What is the meaning of my existence?"
Ye Shi looked down at his own shadow under the streetlight, feeling as if a hole had been dug out in his chest and an immense emptiness.
...
"Yashio..."
Yu Yi looked up at her lover beside her, her cherry eyes reflected the other's confused face, and her chest ached slightly.
She wanted to comfort Ye Si, but she didn't know how.
but...
She is Ye Shi’s lover.
As a lover, when you see the other person's sad expression, you have to do something.
"Yaito."
Yu Yi pursed her lips slightly, her eyes became firm, and she took the initiative to hold Ye Si's hand.
"What's wrong..?"
Ye Shi felt the warm touch and was stunned for a moment.
"follow me!"
Yu Yi didn't say much, held her hand tightly, and pulled her towards the beach.
rustle...
The shoes made a loose sound when they stepped on the sand.
The sea breeze howled.
The two walked on the beach at night. It was pitch dark and they could only see the general outline in the moonlight.
The sound of waves grew louder and louder, and the sea water kept surging in the darkness, as if it could swallow the two of them at any time.
Ta-ta...
As my shoes dipped into the sea water, the icy cold penetrated my body.
"Yuyi..."
Ye Shi was worried about something unexpected happening, so he stopped immediately, took Yu Yi's hand, and asked:
“Why do you do this…”
They stood in the cold water, surrounded by darkness, with waves rolling around their ankles.
Yuyi is a child who is afraid of the dark. Ye Shi can feel that she is very scared through the trembling of her palms.
But she still did it.
"I'm not sure either."
