The bell for the first class in the morning rang. Mandarin teacher Jiang Yue walked into the classroom of Class A of the year and noticed two empty seats on the same column at a glance.
"Chairman."
Kinoshita Masashi quickly stood up, "Teacher..."
"Why didn't Yoshikawa and Soya come to class?"
"Yoshikawa was feeling uncomfortable and went to the health care room to rest. Soya said..."
Nakaetsu pushed the reading glasses on his nose, and his stern eyes shot over him. Kinoshita Kazushi immediately stood up straighter, "He didn't come to school this morning."
"Where has he gone?"
"I have no idea……"
Not to mention Kinoshita Masashita in the classroom, even Soya himself didn't know where he was going, but as the tram on the Huxi Line went further and further.
And his thoughts at this time were not on the unknown destination.
He turned his head and looked around. Kyoko held her schoolbag and leaned against his shoulder, her eyes slightly closed, and her breathing sounded calmly.
This posture has been maintained for more than ten minutes, but she did not fall asleep, but was just resting with her eyes closed.
With Zong Gu watching her, her sleeping environment became much more stable, but she also became unable to fall asleep - although she was extremely tired and relaxed at this time.
Indulging in the dreamy reality, she was unwilling to fall into a better dream, and unconsciously resisted sleepiness with her will.
I don't know how long it took, but the tram began to slow down again.
"Neihara Station - Terminal Station, Nagahara Station arrived -"
After traveling north, the tram finally arrived at the terminal of the Huxi Line. The door opened and the few passengers in the car got up and got out of the car at this time.
Kyoko also opened her eyes and took a deep breath of the moist air that poured into the car as the door opened.
"I'm at the terminal, do you want to get off?" Zong Gu looked at her.
"Um."
She sat upright and had another hand in front of her.
"I can get up by myself..."
The hand was held up on its own initiative. The palm of the hand was warm and moist, and it seemed to be soaked in tears that had not yet dried up.
"Let's go."
Kyoko shook a little while being led out of the carriage by Soya and stepped onto the platform again.
Although she was mentally relaxed, her body, which had not been sleeping all night, was still tired and hungry.
Zong Gu turned to hold her arm, "Is it okay?"
Kyoko stood firm, "It's okay..."
He looked at her for a while, and when what he wanted to say was about to be released, he was swallowed again.
Her first self-exile had just begun.
"Have Kyoko been here?"
"Si Asaicho... I've been here a few times a long time ago."
“I’ve only been here once.”
Zong Gu no longer remembers that he came here last time to deal with the commission, but he remembers something else clearly.
Walking out of the station, he asked Kyoko to sit on a nearby bench, then turned to the bakery not far away.
In just a moment, he came back with a paper bag and a can of hot drinks.
"Try it."
Kyoko opened her eyes, was stunned for a moment, and then raised her hand to take the donut he handed over.
"Thanks."
Zong Gu sat down next to him, took out a donut himself and bite one fifth of it.
The long drizzle brings coolness, which is particularly obvious to tired people. The freshly baked donuts are sweet and soft, and emit heat, making it even more difficult to resist its temptation.
Kyoko finished eating soon, and Soya pushed the paper bag containing the donuts to her, and pulled the can of hot drink open.
"I've had breakfast, and the rest are all from Kyoko."
“…”
She nodded and continued to eat.
Zong Gu opened his phone and flipped through it. He simply replied to the few people who sent me a message to ask. Then he stuffed his phone into his schoolbag and put it in the open space to look ahead.
The drizzle is like silk, and the sight goes over the layers. Near or far away buildings, you can see the mist and mist floating in the distance, and the fog locks on the top of the peaks, as if it is the production base for all the rain and clouds in the sky.
The glass ceiling extending above the bench is actually very small, and the ground a few steps away is wet and tiny rain flowers are shining.
At this time, most of the commuting hours between students and office workers were already past. After a busy morning, the station gradually became calm and there were few people in a minute.
It's the countryside after all.
Soya looked ahead, Kyoko quietly ate the donuts, occasionally taking a sip of hot drink, looking at the same storm as him.
At one moment, she suddenly spoke: "Does Zong Gu want to go back to school?"
"Does Kyoko want to go back to school?" Soya asked.
He put the last bit of donut in his hand into his mouth, and Kyoko said a few seconds later: "I don't plan to go back."
"So too."
Kyoko looked at him, "I don't know where to go next."
"My words..." Sogo handed over a tissue, "It's fine wherever you go."
"Didn't Zong Gu ask anything?"
"It's probably not the time yet."
She didn't say much, took the tissue and wiped her mouth, and then a few fingers.
She pinched the tissue into a ball and threw it into the trash can along with the beverage can and the paper bag containing the donuts. She looked at the sky.
As long as you don’t go home or go to school, you can go anywhere.
Kyoko opened her umbrella and turned around, Soya also stood up with her schoolbag.
Leaving the station, she looked around at the intersection, and the umbrella next to her squeezed over.
"It seems like a shopping mall over there, and the streets look a little cleaner than here. Come and take a look."
"Um."
Without any cover, a small pool of water accumulates on the ground at the intersection, reflecting the beating red numbers. The zebra crossing is lying at the bottom of the water, shaking slightly with the rain.
A few seconds later, the red light turned green, Zong Gu's eyes turned, and after a collision with her, he looked forward.
Crossing the road, Kyoko looked at the shopping mall gradually approaching, without the urge to enter or the idea of resisting.
"Go in and take a look?"
"good."
There are three floors on the ground alone in the shopping mall next to the station, and there is also a circular pedestrian street mainly composed of snack shops on the underground floor. Unfortunately, it is still early and most of the shops have not started business yet.
Zong Gu was a little regretful. After a walk around, he returned to the ground and went to the third floor on the ground.
It was said that it was a shopping trip, but in fact it was just walking around the aisles on each floor.
Clothing stores, jewelry stores, cosmetics stores, and any other places that girls will be interested in, Kyoko passes by at a glance. The place where the two of them stayed the longest is the elevator entrance on the third floor.
"Are you not interested?"
She turned to the side and yawned silently.
"fine."
The two of them didn't stop for much, and returned to the ground and left the mall from the exit on the other side.
Pulling out the umbrella, Zong Gu looked at the surrounding buildings. Before he could find the place he wanted to go next, he saw the police standing at the intersection.
“…”
With eyes facing each other, the other party noticed him, and then walked over.
"Please wait a moment-"
Zong Gu stopped and sighed in his heart.
On the morning of non-off days, I wandered around in my school uniform, and it was indeed too conspicuous.
"High school student?"
The police uncle, who was between his thirties and forties, stopped in front of Soya and looked at Kyoko behind him again.
"At this time, if you don't go to school, what are you doing here?"
Even though the person in front of him was not a teacher in the school, Zong Gu couldn't speak, saying that they just wanted to skip school.
"A little bit of a thing..."
"Which school are you from?" the policeman asked, staring at the school badge on Soya's uniform's chest, "Are the students from Tamkai University... How could they run to Nishiasai Town?"
Soya looked back at Kyoko, signaling her to rest assured, and said after returning:
"We didn't catch the tram to the school, so we just stroll around the neighborhood. Sorry, we'll go to the station right away."
"is that so."
The police looked at them suspiciously, then stretched out their hand.
"Please show your student ID."
The two of them happened to have their student IDs on them, so naturally no one could show them, so the suspicion on the policeman's face aggravated a little.
"Do you live in Nishiasaicho? Where is the specific location of your family? Can you contact your parents now?"
“…”
Zong Gu had some headaches.
Although he also understood that the police officer in front of him was just performing his duties normally. It was because he and Kyoko looked a little abnormal that he was interrogated by the police...
Wait, being questioned by the police?
Zong Gu took out his wallet and took out a black card from it.
"I am a member of the Spirit Awareness Organization and are investigating supernatural incidents here. Please do not disturb my work."
“…”
Kyoko looked at him, then took out a black card that was exactly the same and showed it to the policeman in front of her.
"Me too."
The police uncle was stunned.
He looked back and forth at the two of them, and the cards in their hands, and then picked up the intercom on his shoulders.
"Called to Yongyuan Jiaofan (police station), and two bad high school students were found near the station..."
