Ome Quartet of Snow Country

Chapter 178 Accident
Approaching and colliding, in just a split second, the two who were gliding at high speed fell to the ground at the same time, and rolled uncontrollably all the way on the snow slope until one of the figures was first stopped by the woods below.

"Well!"

Naruse groaned when his back hit the tree trunk, and the severe pain behind him also temporarily relieved the dizziness caused by rolling all the way down.

"pain……"

The goggles are cracked.

Leaning against the tree trunk that blocked him, he endured the pain and slowly sat up.

And at this moment, another figure tumbled out of the wind and snow and rammed straight into him.

"..."

Naruse opened his mouth, feeling pain all over his body, all he could do was follow his instinct and close his eyes.

boom!
cold.

pain.

Boundless cold.

Unstoppable pain.

"..."

Takikawa Hikaru opened his eyes suddenly, waking up from a brief coma.

The sky was gray, the wind and snow were violent, and she was still the same as before she was knocked unconscious.

"It hurts, hurts, hurts..."

She lay on the snow and raised her arms a little, but the result was severe pain all over her body, and the little strength she had gathered dissipated again.

Looking at the black branches above her head, she lay down for a while, and she regained her strength, and the pain has eased a lot.

Fingers, wrists, and entire arms.

One hand was deep in the snow, supporting her to get up with difficulty.

"..."

It wasn't until this moment that she realized that what she was leaning on behind her was not a tree trunk, but a person.

What was discovered next was his identity.

"Chunhai...?"

He was unconscious, but his body was still her support at this time.

"Chunhai... Chunhai!"

She yelled twice, but he didn't respond. As soon as she raised her arm, she felt severe pain all over her body.

After a while, she removed the ski with only one piece left, and then got up.

"Chunhai..."

She wanted to lift him up, but stopped before doing it.

"Don't move around..."

Hikaru Takikawa endured the pain again, bent down a little closer, and patted his face lightly.

"Chunhai, Chunhai."

"..."

He frowned, but his eyes remained closed.

"..."

Although he didn't wake up, he finally had some reaction.

After ruling out a possibility that he didn't even dare to think about, Takikawa Hikari breathed a sigh of relief, and his body relaxed a lot.

"It hurts..."

The wind and snow continued to blow and became more and more violent.

Thinking of the reminder from the staff at the cable car station, her heart tightened again.

The snowstorm was going to get bigger and bigger, and they had to get down as fast as possible.

"Spring Sea!"

She slapped his cheek a little harder, and after a few tries, he gradually became more responsive.

After more than half a minute, he finally opened his eyes.

"..."

His eyes fell on her face, and his eyes rolled again, taking in the surrounding situation in his eyes.

"Light……"

"Chunhai." Her face was crying and smiling, and her voice was trembling.

He closed his eyes and opened them again quickly, "I'm fine."

Hikaru Takikawa held his hand, "How do you feel about your body?"

"It hurts like hell."

"Can you get up?"

He closed his eyes again, and in the pain, he roughly felt the situation all over his body.

No noticeable tingling sensation...

Opening his eyes again, Takikawa Hikaru widened his eyes and looked at him with worry on his face.

"It shouldn't be a big problem..."

Enduring the pain, Naruse sat up with her help, leaning against the tree trunk that blocked him and her.

Looking at the tiny cuts on his face, Takikawa forced himself to calm down.

"Chunhai, we have to go down the mountain as soon as possible."

With the wind and snow blowing on his face, Naruse nodded.

"Can you walk?"

He tried it, and his body ached.

Gritting his teeth and enduring it, he finally stood up.

"no problem……"

Not to mention that each other's skis had fallen off, and there was no way to continue sliding in this state. The two leaned against the sparse or dense branches in the woods and moved laterally until they found the protective net next to the snow track.

Holding on to the protective net, the two struggled to move along the way. After more than ten minutes, they finally saw the third person in the wind and snow.

"Hey... what's going on with you... I'll call someone!"

After a while, the staff who heard the news rushed the two of them to the medical room of the ski resort at the foot of the mountain.

The doctor examined both of them.

After confirming that they were in good health, with only a few bruises, the two were sent back to the hotel to rest.

Shangzi and several members of Naruse's team also rushed back.

"..."

Seeing Naruse lying on the futon, Shangzi's legs went limp.

Zhong Yuanxue stood aside and quickly supported her, but was almost brought down by her.

"Konaka-san... don't worry, Naruse-san is fine."

"Shangko." Naruse also supported himself and sat up, reassuring her with practical actions.

——although the way he grinned in pain made her even more worried.

After confessing a few words and letting Naruse take a good rest, Yuki Nakahara left the room first to visit Hikaru Takikawa who was also lying in the room.

Several boys in the same group also left one after another after confirming that Naruse didn't have any major problems.

He and Shangzi were the only ones left in the room.

Seeing her silently looking at him, Naruse forced a smile.

"It's actually just a fall... It's just a few more bumps."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Shangzi had two lines of clear tears in his eyes, and then lay down on his quilt, his shoulders shrugged slightly.

"..."

Taking a deep breath, Naruse took her hand and squeezed it lightly.

"Feel sorry."

After Shangzi finished crying, he comforted her with the doctor's words, and she felt a little relieved.

"Fortunately, I am strong enough."

Naruse touched his right cheek again, "The only injured part is probably here..."

Maybe it was a fragment of the goggles, or it was scratched by a tree branch. There was a small cut on the right side of his face, which has already been dealt with at this time.

Shangzi stretched out his hand, stayed above the wound for a while, and then landed a little lower.

"..."

Feeling her gentle touch, Naruse closed his eyes, exhaustion caught up with him at this moment, constantly impacting his consciousness.

"I want to sleep for a while."

"Ah."

After he fell asleep, Shangzi got up and left his room after a while, and went back upstairs to check on Takikawa Hikaru.

Her condition was better than Naruse's. Apart from a bump on her forehead, she didn't even have any obvious trauma—of course, bruises on her body were unavoidable.

She propped herself up to sit up.

"Sorry, Shangzi, I was the one who bumped into Chunhai..."

Shangzi shook his head, just letting her rest well.

Hikaru Takikawa wanted to say something else, but she said, "Recover as soon as possible, don't let Sister Yue worry."

"..."

She had to lie down obediently.

After staying with Hikari Takikawa in the room for a while, Naoko went downstairs to look at the sleeping Naruse before leaving.

As time passed, the sky gradually darkened.

Naruse lay down on the futon.

When he was half asleep and half awake, someone touched his face again.
