After taking a final sip of miso soup, Naruse put down the soup bowl, and his evaluation of this humble restaurant rose again.
"It tastes really good."
"Yeah."
After eating and drinking, Naruse looked at the girls sitting next to him and waited for a while.
Takigawa Hikaru continued to finish eating, and was already concerned about the next morning: "I remember that the hotel has breakfast, right?"
"Yeah." Naruse nodded. After all, the price is there, so it doesn't make sense not to provide breakfast. "Buffet breakfast is provided."
"Which floor is the restaurant on?"
"I didn't pay attention. I'll ask you when I get back."
"Okay."
After everyone had finished eating and left the restaurant, Hikaru Takigawa once again suggested going to the campus of Tohoku University.
"It's very close anyway, and it's very early now."
This was the established plan, "Okay."
The distance was a little closer than expected. After walking for a while, a few people arrived at Tohoku University's Hirakata City Campus. This is also where the headquarters of Tohoku University and the Faculty of Science are located, and a considerable number of buildings from the Meiji period have been preserved.
"It looks very chronological... Let's go to the place where Yue will take the exam first and have a look."
"Hmm."
After looking at the sign on the roadside, Naruse pointed to the road on the left, "Go this way."
He led the way, and several girls watched as they walked, slowly walking through a large area of Meiji-era bungalows.
After dark, many figures can still be seen wandering around the school, and judging from the high school uniforms some of them are wearing, they are obviously candidates like Takikawa Yue.
"Among these people, there might be some classmates after Sister Yue."
"Yes."
"Want to say hello and go shopping together?"
"Forget it."
While walking around, a lawn appeared on the side of the road.
By the light of the street lamp, Haixing read the words on a certain stone tablet on the lawn.
"Miyagi Prefectural Girls' College..."
"Tohoku University's predecessor, Tohoku Imperial University, was formed by the integration of several schools, and this school is one of them." Morimi explained to her, "This area is equivalent to the ruins of those schools."
"That's it."
Continuing to walk forward, another stone tablet appeared on the lawn in front, and there was a statue next to it, leaning against a green pine tree.
"Sendai Medical College..."
Haixing looked at the stone tablet and then at the statue. On the front was the name of the person whose statue was erected.
"'Portrait of Mr. Lu Xun'... He seems to be a very powerful Chinese."
Naruse and Morimi nodded together.
"If you have time, you can read the articles he wrote." Morimi said.
Haixing responded. As for whether she would go and see it, only she knew.
Several people continued to move forward.
Walk along this road to the end, and there is a teaching building in front of you. That is the examination room where Takikawa Yue will take the entrance exam tomorrow.
Hikaru Takigawa looked back at the road and said to his sister: "Let's take this road tomorrow."
"Okay."
"The teaching building, can I go in now?"
Naruse walked over to take a look, came back quickly, and shook his head at a few people.
"It is said that it will be used as an examination room tomorrow, but it is already closed."
"Forget it then, let's just walk around and let Yue get familiar with the school."
"After Sister Yue enrolled in school, she no longer attended classes on this campus."
"Huh?"
"After enrolling, all first- and second-year students in the department will take liberal arts classes at the Kawauchi campus." Takigawa Yue said.
"Is the Kawauchi campus far?"
“It’s not too far, but you have to take the subway there.”
"The Northeast is so big..."
"The four campuses are separated."
After walking around the Pingpian campus for a while, a few people came out of the intersection on the other side and were ready to go back to the hotel.
Looking at the long street under the street lights, Starfish looked at the sky again.
"Although it doesn't snow here, it's still very cold."
"It's still winter."
Back at the hotel, Naruse asked about the location of the restaurant, and the answer was that it was on the 25th floor, with a great view.
Back upstairs, Naruse swiped his card to go in, and the girls followed him in - it wasn't time to go to bed yet.
“The double bed in this hotel is a bit too big.”
"Actually, it's just two beds pushed together."
Takigawa Hikaru lay down on the bed, turned over again, and looked for the non-existent gap between the two beds.
"Chunhai can sleep on two beds alone."
"Well, I'll sleep here in the first half of the night and that side in the second half of the night."
"Haha."
The girls occupied both beds and sat on them chatting. Naruse stood by the window for a while, then sat on the sofa and looked out the window.
While chatting, I saw Takigawa Yue looking out the window in a daze, and Morimi moved towards her.
"Sister Yue, are you nervous now?"
"Huh? It's okay."
Takigawa Yue turned around and smiled, "At this point, there is nothing to be nervous about."
"I really envy Sister Yue's mentality." She honestly revealed her thoughts, "At this point, I probably can't relax."
Takigawa Yue looked at her, "Ichiyo is too tight."
Morimi sighed softly, "I can't control myself."
"But this is normal, because you are only in the first grade."
"It will be second grade soon."
"That's true, but at my stage, there are still two years left." Takigawa Yue said.
"..."
Mori Jian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. In the end, he just nodded slowly.
"Well... there are still two years."
Takigawa Yue looked at her and then at Naruse sitting on the sofa.
"Isn't Chunhai's mentality always very good?"
"..."
The two looked at each other, and Morimi said: "He is not a normal person, he is different from Sister Yue."
Naruse quickly countered, "I don't think you are normal either."
Morijian sneered and looked out the window again.
"I think there are no normal people among the top ten in grade..." Haixing quietly said to Takigawa Hikari.
As a result, when she turned around, Shangzi next to her was looking at her with a smile.
"...Shangzi doesn't count."
She just smiled.
The chat continues.
The topics ranged from the restaurant we just ate at, to the four campuses of Northeastern University, to the devastating earthquake and tsunami many years ago.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Takigawa Yue didn't speak much, she mostly listened.
When the topic turns to areas that she is not interested in, her attention gradually shifts to the person talking.
She looked at the girls around her, and her eyes stayed on the faces of Morimi and her sister for the longest time.
It would be nice if the mentality of Kazuha and Hikari could neutralize each other...
This thought suddenly came to my mind.
She did not let it go, but continued to think about it.
These two people are two extremes.
A goal that is too clear and kept in mind may even turn into a huge pressure that is always on your head;
The other one can't find a goal at all and can only use the pursuit of girls to fill the emptiness in his heart.
Even her dependence on her sister is just one of those "fillers" that lasts a long time.
If these two people could reconcile, what would it look like with a relaxed Kazuyo and a sister who is no longer confused?
"..."
Having said that, I will take the entrance exam tomorrow morning. Is it too relaxed to worry about this now?
