Chapter 131: Walking on the ancient bridge of Chiba.

After bidding farewell to Ibuki and Yusuke Yoshimura, Otosaka Yuyuki and Yukinoshita boarded the bus.

When the bus passed the Nakajima Bridge in Chiba Prefecture, Yuu Otosaka rang the bell and got off here with Yukinoshita.

It is a bridge with a quaint atmosphere, and although the bridge body has been made of reinforced concrete, the railings still retain the wooden structure, which is very historic.

“Is there anything special here?”

Holding up the railing under the snow, he asked.

“It’s nothing special, I just want to take a walk by the river with my classmates under the snow on an autumn afternoon.”

Otosaka Yuu looked at the white waves rolling on the water.

“Lying.”

Otosaka Yuu smiled and said, “Actually, because I heard that you can clearly see Mt. Fuji if the weather here is good, I want to see it with the minister.” ”

“It’s such a boring reason.”

“Boring?”

Otosaka Yuu turned around and looked at the side face under the snow who was looking into the distance,

“There are people in this world who like the sky, there are people who love flowers, and there are people who are fascinated by trams, don’t you think they are all boring.”

“Nope.”

Yukinoshita denied it in a casual tone,

“I just want to be sarcastic about you, what other people like, I’m not interested in knowing.”

“It’s really cunning, Lord Minister, if you say this, even if I am sarcastic by you, it will be difficult for me to be angry.”

Yukinoshita turned his head and looked at Yuki Otosaka.

She brushed her hair behind her ear and said with a smile: “This is one of the means to make disobedient members fall in love with me.” ”

Chiba’s breeze brushed her cheeks, her long hair swayed gently, and there was a fragrance that made Otosaka Yuyu feel very comfortable.

“If you say your purpose, I won’t be moved at all.”

“It’s okay, it’s too simple, I don’t want to do it.”

Yukishita is full of confidence.

“Admiration.”

Otosaka Yuu nodded, and his gaze followed the endless river under the Nakajima Bridge again, looking into the distance. Far away, on the river beach, there is a bird with snow-white feathers parked, and there is something in its mouth.

In order to see clearly, Yuu Otosaka poked his head out of the railing.

Yukishita glanced at him, and compared to him, the wooden railing seemed too low, and he always felt that people could easily fall. She subconsciously reached out and gently tugged on the corner of his school uniform.

“Pond Heron? Herons? Or an egret? ”

Otosaka Yuu turned his head,

“Lord Minister, see what that is?”

Yukishita quietly let go of his hand, followed his gaze just now, and said, “You catch it first and let me see it clearly before I can tell you what it is.” ”

“Let’s go then! I see that it is quite fat, and I can already think about the scene when roasted, the grease dripping on the fire charcoal, in and out of the flames. ”

The two walked down the stairs next to the bridge.

“Yukishita-san, do you like chili powder for barbecue? I have heard that some people like to eat it with white sugar, which is simply an unimaginable perverted behavior. ”

“When eating roast suckling pig, I occasionally try the perverted behavior in the mouth of Otosaka-san.”

“When I think of the way my classmates under the snow eat white sugar, this way of eating is also cute.”

The two chatted while leaning over.

Unfortunately, before the two approached, the white bird raised its long neck, swallowed the fish in its mouth, patted the surface of the water with its wings, and flew away. The two continued to stroll along the riverbank, walking on the stone-paved embankment.

Luxuriant willow branches that shine through the sun’s light. There are benches placed by the river, where joggers or tourists rest.

“Your song is very good, why haven’t I heard you sing it before?”

“Well, for all sorts of reasons, I don’t really like singing.”

Under the glow of the sun, the surface of Chiba’s lake shimmers with colorful light, and the water hits wooden stakes or stones, splashing white droplets. He remembered the past when he was forced by his classmates to go up to the podium to sing and lost the boss’s face in his previous life.

In the distance, the peaks of early spring, still dyed red and yellow.

She retracted her gaze and noticed that Yuu Otosaka had folded a miscanthus from the surrounding weeds, swinging it as she walked. I don’t know why, she suddenly became happy, and a faint warmth filled her chest.

“Otosaka-san, would you like to hear my story?”

In an emotion that she had never felt before, she said this.

“I’m not interested in other people’s past.”

Otosaka Yuu stopped waving miscanthus and turned to look at her,

“Except for Lord Minister, Yukinoshita did not express any opinion on this sentence.”

“I have always lived without expectation.”

She said,

“Don’t associate with anyone, do nothing without expecting a response from others, and don’t need a response from others.”

Otosaka Yuyu didn’t say a word, staring at the reeds not far ahead.

“I have a very good sister, no matter how good I do, the people around me always praise the perfect existence without flaws, and I have been like a by-product of my sister since I was a child.”

“I can probably guess such a past.”

Otosaka Yuu nodded. The two were in the shadow of the maple tree, heading towards the reeds.

“At that time, I was jealous of my sister. Why do people’s eyes always focus on her? Why didn’t my parents look at me more? ”

Not far away, two girls were sitting on the edge of the river beach, and the narration stopped under the snow.

When she was far away from the two, she laughed at herself: “At that time, I felt that everything around me was full of malice, and sometimes I even complained that my parents didn’t care about me and didn’t let me be born in the first place.” ”

The two walked to the reeds, and Otosaka Yuu sat down on the old bench. He patted the extra spot beside him and motioned for Yukinoshita to sit down as well.

Under the snow, she pressed a pleated skirt and sat beside him in a very ladylike manner.

The two sat in the shade of the trees and watched the rushing river side by side for a while.

“I don’t think it’s you.”

Otasaka Yuyu said,

“You are essentially different from them, you are the flower blooming in the wrong season.”

“Wrong season?”

“The focus should be on the flowers, right?”

Otosaka Yuyu looked at her,

“I like you a lot… of character. ”

Yukishita put his hand on his chin and laughed happily with a hint of mischief: “Tell me separately?” ”

“Don’t even think about it, I just like Connor.”

After decisively refusing, Otosaka Yuyu looked into the distance again,

“I thought you would be in a negative mood now, but I didn’t expect to be joking.”

“The world is not gentle with negative people, Otosaka-san.”

“That’s what you said about me last time.”

Otosaka Yuyu shook his head slightly amused.

He wanted to say something comforting, but Yukinoshita was not someone who was weak enough to need comfort, and he said this to win his sympathy.

What’s more, he has never had the same experience, no matter how he puts himself in his shoes, the comfort he speaks out is also separated by a layer…. The breeze blows and the leaves rustle overhead.

A leaf that looks tender green falls on the knee under the snow.

She gently picked up this leaf, greeted the sunlight squeezed in from the leaves, and whispered in a clear spring deep voice: “The wind is up, do you want to try to live?” No, it doesn’t need to be. ”

Otasaka Yuyu suddenly became sad, and he realized that the past under the snow was not just what she had just said. He picked up a fairly intact leaf from the ground.

“It is precisely because of the growth and elimination of green leaves that cherry blossoms bloom here when April comes.”

Yukinoshita laughed and withdrew his hand holding the green leaf.

“I just suddenly remembered this sentence, Otosaka-san doesn’t have to be in such a hurry to comfort me.”

“….. I’m just talking casually, you think too much. ”

“Otosaka-san, you really like to lie.”

Yukishita smiled helplessly, his slender hand briskly turning the petiole of the green leaf.

“I’m so sorry to live like you hate.”

Otosaka Yuu apologized without apologies.

“Sometimes even if you hate it, you still have to endure it, life is like that.”

“Indeed, but I’m a little sad that you say that.”

“I just said that I don’t expect anything from anyone, right?”

Yukishita looked at him.

“Yes.”

Otosaka Yuu threw the leaves in his hand under the still bare cherry blossom tree.

“This attitude continued until you appeared, and I had expectations for you, although I was very reluctant to admit it.”

“What kind of expectations?”

“I don’t know.”

Under the snow, his gaze turned to the river, revealing a thoughtful expression,

“This feeling is very vague, and I have to say it… It’s like I fell into Chiba’s lake now, I don’t expect anyone to come to save me, whether they will come to save me, I don’t care, but if you don’t jump down right away to save me, I should be angry. ”

“The water is so urgent, and there are so many stones, what if I drown?”

“So do you jump or not?”

3.7

“What is there to say about this.”

Yuu Otosaka replied,

“No matter when you fall into any river, I will not hesitate to jump down and save you.”

“Then you have to exercise your swimming skills, with my caution, if you really fall, it must be the most dangerous river.”

Yukinoshita said with a slight smile.

That smile was like a floating cloud in the distance, flowing in the air like quicksand.

“Just fall into the river, I still have the confidence to save you.”

Otosaka Yuu picked up a stone on the ground and threw it out.

The snow caught up with the stone.

Until it disappeared from view, the stone did not fall.

“Otosaka-san, you are obviously very smart, but you deliberately pretend to be very stupid and casual, and somewhere deep in your heart, you must look down on everyone and think that everyone is an idiot, right?”

“There is absolutely no such thing.”

Otosaka Yu Yaguchi denied it.

“Well, lying again.”

Yukinoshita said with a smile.

The surrounding area is overgrown with weeds, unknown flowers bloom everywhere, and reeds almost as tall as a person sway comfortably in the wind. The sun went a little further to the west, the shade of the trees overhead deviated, and the two bathed in the sun.

In other words, why is the intuition under the snow so sharp?
