"Reiko..."

Kanzako Yuuto looked at the girl and said hesitantly.

His voice is not loud.

It was as if he was afraid of disturbing the girl.

But the girl standing at the door did not respond to his call.

She walked silently from the door to the bar and sat down.

She sat quietly.

He didn't even raise his head to look at Kamisaka Yuuto.

The expression on that face was particularly gloomy.

There is a heart-wrenching sadness in the silence...

Kanzako Yuuto took a deep breath. He didn't know whether to speak or shut up at this moment.

Opening your mouth to comfort or ask suddenly will only arouse impatience and irritability.

Even friends have their own corners that cannot be touched by others....

After hesitating for a moment.

He chose silence.

But he did not choose to remain still.

He turned and went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Erina and Hisako were resting together.

When they saw Yuuto Kanzaka coming in, they wanted to say hello, but they saw Yuuto Kanzaka's somewhat silent expression.

They gave up the idea of ​​saying hello.

Instead, he looked at Kanzaka Yuuto's movements.

Kamisaka Yuuto cut a piece of sweet potato.

Cut it into hob pieces, and fry the sweet potato pieces in a pan.

In the boiling hot oil, these sweet potatoes, which are slightly white on the surface, turn golden.

He took out these fried sweet potato pieces again.

Then I put in a few more rock candies.

The cooking steps are now clear.

He was going to make shredded sweet potatoes.

This dish was the first dish Reiko ate when she came to the restaurant.

Back then, even though there were big and small footprints and dust on her body, Reiko's face was not as sad as it is today....

Yuuto Kanzaka does it very seriously.

He didn't speak the whole time, he just concentrated on cooking....

With the final move, the shredded sweet potatoes are ready.

He placed the plate, held it in his right hand and walked out.

At the same time, there was a small dish of cold water in his left hand.

Before eating, the shredded sweet potatoes must be dipped in water.

Otherwise, it will be burned.

Tah——

He brought the food in front of Reiko without saying a word.

The girl raised her head and glanced at Yuuto Ban.

Those eyes were full of confusion and complexity.

There are also messy blood streaks...

"Eat."

Kamisaka Yuuto sighed and said lightly. 947 He folded his arms and leaned back against the bar.

Reiko also lowered her head and looked at the plate of shredded sweet potatoes in front of her.

Her eyes were slightly absent-minded.

Yun The water mist blurred her vision.

She stretched out her hand and held the chopsticks to pick up a piece of sweet potato. She dipped it lightly in the water and then put it in her mouth. The girl's face swelled a little because of this.

Her chewing and swelling gradually changed.

Reiko's breathing gradually became heavier.

Under the gaze of Kamisaka Yuuto, a drop of water fell from her lowered face.

It should be tears.

Kamisaka Yuuto Sighed again.

The cheerful and generous girl in the past and the girl who bowed her head and wept silently now.

It's hard for people to associate them with each other.

It's just the fact....

There is no always sunny blue sky.

Dark clouds will come from time to time...

Saitama, who was also sitting at the bar, glanced at Reiko, and then withdrew his gaze.

He couldn't handle a girl crying like this.

It would be more suitable for him to just watch from the sidelines.

"Thanks."

Reiko put down her chopsticks.

She raised her head and smiled a little reluctantly at Kamisaka Yuuto.

The seemingly relaxed expression could not cover up the fact that her eye circles and nose were red.

But at least it was better than when she first entered the store. Much better.

Although cooking can’t speak.

But in many cases, cooking is no worse than words.

"Want anything more?"

Kamisaka Yuuto also said with a smile.

Reiko tilted her head slightly, she said with a smile:

"Can you give me a drink?"

Dang.

Reiko once again put the empty wine glass on the table.

At this moment, the girl's face was already showing a dizzy state of drunkenness.

However, the girl obviously did not realize this situation.

She still smiled and asked Kanzako Yuuto to continue. Pour the wine.

Or maybe, she realized it.

It's just that she didn't want to leave the moment.

"OK"

Kamisaka Yuuto agreed softly.

Then he held the handle of the cup and came to the barrel to get another glass of wine for Reiko.

From the time he promised to serve Reiko the wine, she has drank seven glasses now.

She used The glass is not an ordinary wine glass, but the large glass that Dadi and the others always use.

Such a large glass can hold four or five ordinary glasses, which is equivalent to a whole bottle.

In other words, Reiko has drunk at least seven bottles..Perhaps because girls are different from ordinary people, they are also particularly good at drinking....

"The wine is coming."

Kamisaka Yuuto brought the wine glass in front of the girl.

Reiko smiled at Yuuto Kamisaka a little confused.

She held the handle of the cup and drank directly again.

But halfway through the drink, she put down the wine glass.

The look in the girl's eyes She was obviously in a daze at the moment.

It was the empty look that would inevitably appear after drinking too much.

She looked at the wine sloshing in the glass quietly. She raised her arm slightly and rested her chin on her wrist.

After a long silence, , the girl spoke:

"If only I were a complete monster..."

Reiko said calmly, and then she suddenly smiled.

But this smile made Kanzako Yuuto look a little inexplicably sad.

Her eyes became a little darker and darker.

Like those old people who have seen through the vicissitudes of the world.

Just like those people who were beaten and bruised......

"What happened?"

Kamisaka Yuuto asked.

Reiko's initiative to speak was a good opportunity for Kanzaka Yuuto.

The girl's nose trembled slightly.

She took a deep and somewhat nervous breath.

The corners of her mouth curled up hard. Smile, it just doesn't look good

"If you were a monster, life would be easy."

Reiko said with a faint smile, looking at Kamisaka Yuuto.

Her face was as cheerful and bright as before.

But her hand holding the handle of the cup was trembling slightly.

Even though she didn't take it seriously every time she said it, but in Reiko's mind In her heart, she is also longing for human friends with whom she can get along well.

The last time she came to the store, she told Yuuto Kamisaka that she had made a good friend.

She was a human, not a monster.

She was a girl..

She is a girl who loves to laugh and can listen patiently to Reiko's monster stories.

She is a girl who can ignore Reiko's nickname of"freak" and make friends with Reiko.

She is a girl who truly accepts Reiko.... is the first and only one...

The ordinary human friends Reiko made in a real sense....

Kamisaka Yuuto still remembers Reiko’s expression when she told him the story. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

That was the girl’s sincerely happy smile. as bright as a star...

But not all relationships have a happy ending.

Just like most stories worth remembering are tragedies.

That girl is dead[]

It's suicide.

Because of my own illness, I don’t want to continue to be a drag on my family.

So, the girl chose death.

She met Reiko the day before she committed suicide.

Everything is as usual.

She smiled as she listened to Reiko's strange stories.

She was surprised from time to time and scared from time to time.

There was no strange behavior at all.

Just the next day.

She just left...

Like a gust of evening wind, it goes away invisibly.

Reiko only found out the news the day after she left.

She accidentally heard fragments of things about girls from the monsters' words. (caad)

Only later did I fully understand everything.

When Reiko stood alone in front of the girl's grave, she understood at that moment.

It turns out she knows very little about girls.

She didn't know she was sick, nor did she know her family was in distress, nor did she know how she felt on her last day....

She just cared about the joy of finding a human friend. and ignored other...

By the time she understood, everything was over.

Even an irrational thing like a monster cannot change life and death.

The sign of termination was drawn at sunset on that day.

Reiko left the tomb in a daze.

She couldn't remember exactly how long she stood there.

I just remember it was so cold that day.

It's so cold that even when the sun shines on you, you feel a biting chill...

Just like people who have never seen the sun will not know the pain of darkness.

Once you have crossed the darkness.

When you fall into darkness again, the pain and despair will expand unimaginably....

The despair caused by those who have been bullied, betrayed and insulted will never be compared to this day.......

Reiko took a sip of wine quietly.

She finished all this calmly.

There were just two traces of tears running down her face.

The girl pursed her lips and forced a smile again.

"It's really tiring to wander between monsters and humans like this."

Reiko said.

There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.

Kanzaka Yuuto sighed slightly.

Now he finally understood what Reiko said before.

If it is a monster, it would be fine.

The girl is at the intersection of humans and monsters. time.

Even if you can remain friendly to humans, humans will not treat you kindly because of it.

Even if the monsters have friends who can understand them, in the end they are still humans and monsters.

In the end, they will still be hostile to most monsters.

If you stand on the side that is resented and hated by both sides, it is better to choose one side and join it completely.

That will save you worry....

Kamisaka Yuuto took a gentle breath

"When you are tired, come here. Although it may not provide any great service, the food and wine are still enough."

He said with a faint smile.

Reiko looked at Kamisaka Yuuto, she was silent for a moment and then smiled.

"That's right."

After she said that, she drank the last sip of wine in the glass.

Then she wiped her mouth with the back of her hand a little boldly.

Then she raised her hands hard and stretched.

"My mood is much better now than before. It seems that drinking is still useful."

The girl said with a bright smile.

Her eyes were still slightly confused.

But her overall appearance was much better than before.

"Drinking too much can be bad."

Kamisaka Yuuto smiled and shook his head.

"It’s really great that I can tell you these things here in Kamisaka tonight. It’s time for me to go home. It’s easy to get sleepy after drinking too much."

Reiko stood up. Her body swayed slightly, but she still tried to stand still.

Kamisaka Yuuto was a little worried.

"Is it okay?"

"Well, it’s okay!"

Lingzi said with a smile.

"I'll bring the money for tonight's food and drinks tomorrow. I really didn't bring any money tonight. Kamisaka, please keep the accounts first."

"OK"

Kamisaka Yuuto smiled and nodded.

Then Reiko turned around and left the store.

Kanzaka Yuuto looked at the girl's back and couldn't help but compare in his heart.

Compared with other girls or peers, Reiko is extra mature..

Even though she has suffered many blows, Reiko has never resented anyone.

Her emotions have always been well controlled.

However, it is precisely because of this maturity that it makes people feel more distressed.

Before leaving, Reiko Behind that calm smile, there is so much suppressed sadness hidden.

No one can know those emotions.

All the suffering and sadness are just borne quietly by the girl herself....

Kamisaka Yuuto sighed silently.

He thought of Reiko's words again.

If it were a monster, that would be fine.

At first glance, you might think that the girl has lost hope in human life.

But think about it carefully.

There may still be a glimmer of hope for the future of the girl in it.

It is precisely because I still hold on to hope that I tremble slightly when I say these words.

The helplessness in her tone was actually the girl's hesitation.

Even because humans have been hurt so many times.

In the end, Reiko still had hopes for mankind and the future....

Kamisaka Yuuto couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this....

"Reiko, are you okay?"

"Reiko-sama, are you okay?"

"Sister Reiko, it doesn't matter. Do you want to drink?"

"Boss Reiko, do you want to go play?"

When Bing in kimono and a group of monsters gathered in front of Reiko, Reiko's eyes couldn't help but feel a little sour.

Yes....She still has so many monster friends who care about her.

You can't stay immersed in the past.

The road ahead is still long!

Look forward!

"Let's go have a drink!"

Lingzi stretched out her hand and cheered.

All the monsters responded directly.

"Reiko, can you continue drinking?"

"certainly!"

Lingzi said to C with a smile.

When a group of monsters and a human girl were noisily rushing to an abandoned shrine, the moon in the sky also came out from the cover of the clouds.

Under the moonlight all over the sky, no monsters paid attention. I saw the girl looking at the moon.

It was a look of nostalgia and gratitude.

(Ye Zi, you should take care of yourself over there!)

The girl said quietly in her heart.

Please give me flowers, review, and reward. , please decide by yourself.
