When Mai suggested that she cook dinner, Shiraishi was filled with gratitude and expectation. And Kazuka's "curry" was unexpectedly accepted, which made Shiraishi smile bitterly, secretly criticizing Kazuka's "success".
Halfway through the journey, Mai suddenly mentioned the connection between Uzuki and Kirishima Touko, which made Shiraishi realize that Touko's existence might be connected to more unknown stories.
He curiously asked Kazuka if she knew the details, but Kazuka's reaction seemed a little careless, as if she was not very interested in this topic.
During the conversation, Mai gently pinched Shiraishi's cheek, reminding Shiraishi not to talk too much in her unique way. At that moment, the air in the car seemed to solidify, and Shiraishi felt the complex emotions of warning and tenderness in Mai's eyes. He quickly changed the subject, trying to ease the subtle tension.
As the car continued to move forward, the conversation between Shiraishi, Mai, and Kazuka also wandered between relaxation and seriousness.
"She expressed a strong desire to come forward and say hello in person, but unfortunately, this expectation seems to be an elusive phantom. In this digital age, even those manufacturers who decided to use her songs mostly communicate with her through the invisible bridge of e-mail, as if she is in a world that is neither completely isolated nor inaccessible.
Such a situation makes people feel a deep sense of powerlessness, like being in a maze, surrounded by walls, with neither the revelation of the entrance nor the dawn of the exit.
I know that if I want to solve the doubts that linger in my heart, the most direct and effective way is to talk to her face to face, but the premise of all this is that fate can arrange for us to meet again...~..."
"It seems that the only clue at present is the girl who goes to the same school as you." Shiraishi said softly, with a subtle sense of helplessness and hope in his tone.
Indeed, compared to the miniskirted Christmas girl who seemed to exist only in dreams, Akagi Ikumi, as an alumnus of the same school, seemed more real and approachable.
As the car slowly drove into the familiar neighborhood, the outline of Kanazawa Hakkei Station gradually became clear. It was waiting there quietly like an old friend, indicating that the school was not far away.
The time spent with Mai passed by like flowing water, leaving only the indescribable warmth and reluctance in my heart.
"Remember to stay awake in class, don't let the knowledge slip away from your eyes." Mai's gentle voice was a bit joking. She stopped the car at the roundabout of the station and watched Shiraishi get off the car.
Shiraishi smiled and replied: "If I could meet you again in my dream, maybe I really couldn't help but take a nap." Mai heard this, and smiled slightly, and said "idiot" silently with her lips, and then drove away. That smile was like a ray of warm sunshine in spring, warm and bright.
In the afternoon, after two classes, Shiraishi went to the ATM to withdraw money, and then walked into the school cafeteria. It was already crowded with people.The crowd was bustling, and hungry students were sitting or standing, looking for their own place.
Shiraishi was walking through the crowd, searching for empty seats, and at this moment, a familiar figure jumped into his eyes - Mido Miori, who was sitting alone at a table for four, with her bun tied casually behind her head, looking particularly refreshing.
"Excuse me, is anyone sitting here?" Shiraishi asked politely, but he was prepared to be rejected. Miori raised her head, still holding the unswallowed udon in her mouth. She deliberately made an unhappy expression and responded to Shiraishi's little "revenge" when they first met with her eyes.
Shiraishi chuckled and sat down opposite her shamelessly, as if such interaction had become a tacit joke between them.
"Shiraishi, why are you alone today?" She asked casually, and at the same time noticed the open lunch box on her table. Obviously, she also came here for the free hot tea.
Miori, with a look of "you know the answer but still ask", replied: "As you can see, who else is there besides you?" They smiled at each other, and the air was filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere.
Talking about Mai, Shiraishi learned that she was busy with various jobs recently, but even so, she was still able to balance her studies. This persistence and perseverance made people sincerely admire her.
Just as Shiraishi was sighing, Miori took out two small and exquisite jam bottles from her bag, marked "strawberry" and "blueberry" respectively. Shiraishi was a little surprised and didn't understand what they meant.
(Wang Haozhao) "Is it Jam Festival today?" Shiraishi asked half-jokingly, but he knew nothing about such a festival. Miori shook her head and smiled: "Jam Festival? That's not today. This is just a good thing I found by chance, and I thought maybe I could give it to you and Mai-senpai to taste."
It turned out that this was just her intention, simple and pure.
Shiraishi took the jam bottle, and a warm current surged in his heart.
This is not just a souvenir, it carries the joy of Manami getting a driver's license and the warm memory of celebrating with us. Yesterday, we drove to a distant place and chose a special journey as the starting point of her new journey. The feeling of free galloping is still unforgettable. .
