I push the child!

Chapter 62 60. Please watch me carefully

Where the corridor and the exit connect, snow-white lights come down from above, making the phantom on the ground even more invisible.

Standing in front of the open door, Mucun Taku hugged his chest, sometimes looked down at the spotless floor, and sometimes stared at the swaying toes that were bored.

There was only his weak breathing in the silent corridor. He took out his mobile phone and reconfirmed that Ai Hoshino had read the message.

In the next second, there seemed to be a sudden sound of footsteps coming from a very far away place.

The voice was hurried and irregular, quite different from the usual calm and unhurried voice, but Makimura Taku was too familiar with it, it was Hoshino Ai.

The footsteps came closer, and he moved his body away from the door, turning his head to look at the sound.

There was an unforgettable fragrance in the windless aisle, and Hoshino Ai, who was wearing make-up and playing songs, rushed out from the corner.

The long purple hair drifted to the side with inertia, and the ribbon with the bow was swaying lightly in the air.

Ai Hoshino stopped and looked straight at Taku Makimura.

She was so beautiful that even though the sweat soaked through her eye makeup, it still couldn't hide the light in her eyes.

"Makimura..." Hoshino Ai leaned on the wall with his hands, his body was still panting uncontrollably, but he had already called out Mumura Taku's name first.

Looking into her eyes, Mucuntuo showed a reassuring smile and walked over a few steps: "It's too urgent."

"That's because..." Hoshino Ai was still panting, but her eyes were locked on Mucun Taku's face.

Mucun Taku glanced at her, shook his head helplessly, walked to the position in front of her, and flicked her forehead with his hand.

"It hurts." Ai Hoshino covered his forehead with both hands, peeking at Takumi Makimura's expression from between the hair that hung down.

"There is no reply to the message."

"Ah, didn't you come back?"

"if not?"

Ai Hoshino raised the mobile phone in her hand, and just looked at it symbolically: "Yes, it seems that I have indeed forgotten it."

"Too urgent." Makimura said.

"Feel sorry."

"What's the matter, it's not like you to apologize."

Ai Hoshino looked up at him, opened and closed her lips slightly, trying to say something.

"This is not an apology!" "I learned from you, Mucun!" "Oh, I'm Ai Hoshino, I should be more polite!"

But when the words came to her lips, she couldn't help but think of the failed performance on the stage, and Gao Sanya's expression of disappointment that couldn't be concealed when she left the stage.

Obviously everyone has worked very hard, and obviously there is only one last step left. If it is because of myself, because of myself alone, everyone can only come here...

Thinking of this, Ai Hoshino's eyes dimmed.If so, she could not forgive herself.

"This expression..." Mu Cuntuo said softly.

"..." Hoshino Ai didn't know where to look, so she could only stare at the corner, biting her lower lip.

There were only the two of them in the corridor. Behind the open door was the stairs. Go down the stairs and go far away to reach the auditorium.

The walls with good sound insulation are completely impenetrable to any movement on the field.

The slightly dazzling light shines on the top of Hoshino Ai's head like the sun, refracting the shimmering hair, which makes people want to caress it gently.

Hoshino Ai's breathing sound disappeared at some point.

In front of her, Mucun Taku just let out a sigh of relief, and he took two steps back.

Ai Hoshino raised her head completely in shock, looking at Taku Makimura with a confused expression.

"You have worked very hard." Makimura Taku said softly.

Hoshino Ai was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly and said, "What, I don't want to hear such comforting words."

"It's actually very useful, right?"

"No." Ai Hoshino said, "Not at all."

"Excellent show."

"It sucks..."

"Everybody loves you guys."

"..." Ai Hoshino lowered her head, she remembered the trending tweets she saw in the room——

"It's not good-looking", "Disappointed", "Sure enough, it's an unknown small group, it's my fault for expecting too much", "The appearance gave me a bright feeling, I didn't expect it to be completely ordinary"

……

If you do it all over again, will it be better than last time?she thinks.

But soon another voice popped out of my mind: It's hopeless, acting like this is really a waste of everyone's time.

Maybe it will turn out like this.

She stared at the light and shadow on the floor, broken into two pieces in the long pattern.

"Thinking about it again?"

"Hmm..." Ai Hoshino shook her head, with a smile on her face, "I'm remembering."

"I've seen the trending searches." Makimura Taku subconsciously glanced at her phone.

Hoshino Ai blinked and said, "Then you should have seen it too."

"No matter what those people say," Makimura Taku said seriously, "In short, I like your performance very much."

Ai Hoshino blushed for a moment, and turned away from looking at Mucun Taku: "But no matter what you say, Mucun." Having said that, she took a quick peek at Mucun Taku, and continued to look elsewhere, "No matter what you say, you can't change it. Fact, isn't it?"

Mu Cuntuo pondered for a few tenths of a second: "Yes."

"Then what's the point of saying that?"

"Pointless."

Hoshino Ai visibly paused.

She closed her lips tightly and stared at Takumi Makimura from bottom to top, the shadow cast by her slender and thick eyelashes reflected in her eyes.

Those eyes were so dazzlingly beautiful that Makimura Taku almost forgot what he was going to say.

He cleared his throat: "It's like knowing that I can see through all lies, but you still choose to lie to me."

Mucuntuo walked up to her and stopped, Hoshino Ai raised her face a little higher, still looking at him.

Mucuntuo couldn't help raising his hand, and when he hung it over Ai Hoshino's head, he froze.

Hoshino shrank back, but did not avoid it.

Her head was as low as before, even lower than before, as if she was matching with Takumi Makimura's movements.

She also raised her hand, but it was between her chin and her chest, and the other hand was hidden behind her in a daze.

From the beginning to the end, Hoshino Ai didn't make a sound. Mucuntuo looked at her, and she glanced at other places, but looked back the next moment.

Mucun Taku snorted amusedly, and touched the top of Hoshino Ai's head with his hand.

As imagined, soft and smooth, with some body temperature, people want to keep touching it.

Makimura Taku said in a consistent tone: "Whether it makes sense or not, I want you to know that this is enough."

Ai Hoshino didn't move, her head was lowered, her eyes didn't know where to look, and she didn't speak.

Mucuntuo only touched it for a while, then he took off his hand: "I'm sorry, I was careless."

"No, it's nothing." Ai Hoshino seemed to be still awake.

"What about the other three?"

Only now did she react a little: "You mean Watanabe and the others?"

"Ah."

"They are all in the room." Ai Hoshino asked, "Do you want to go there together?"

"If possible," Mu Cuntuo thought for a while and said, "Let's go there later."

"late?"

"Yes."

Ai Hoshino thought of something, looked at the time on the phone, shook her head and smiled and said, "I sacrificed my lunch to accompany you, Mucun."

"This is fair," Mucuntuo said lightly, "I didn't eat either."

"Okay." Ai Hoshino smiled again.

During lunch time, the two did not go to the lounge.

Mai Watanabe sent a message to Ai Hoshino, asking where she had gone. Ai Hoshino was still thinking about the reason, and Mai Watanabe said that President Saito came to find them in the lounge and probably had something to say.

Ai Hoshino glanced at Taku Makimura next to him, and simply typed in the dialog box: My stomach hurts, I have to stay outside for a while before I can go back!

"Is it necessary to lie?" Makimura asked.

"Just say what you want." Ai Hoshino clicked send as if nothing had happened.

After a few seconds, Mai Watanabe sent a message back: "Are you okay, Xiao Ai? ≥﹏≤Do you want me to take care of you?!"

"No need! No need!" Ai Hoshino sent.

"If you feel uncomfortable, please send me a message, we are all here!! ヽ(ω)"

"You guys eat first, don't wait for me!" Ai Hoshino said.

"OK!" Mai Watanabe replied.

Ai Hoshino turned off the phone screen.

Since the top and skirt of the clothes had no pockets, she had to hold her mobile phone in her hand.

In fact, she and Mucuntuo didn't know the way. The two of them wrote down the original location, turned a few times along the corridor, didn't take the elevator, and climbed up from the stair passage for an unknown number of floors. out.

Where they were, in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the midday sun shone in from outside.

Clouds float above countless buildings, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Hall, which is more than 240 meters away, is in the center of the distant horizon.

They stood in the tall building, leaning on the railing by the window, looking at the Asakusa in the distance, and at the tram passing through the low buildings.

"It would be great if the wind could blow." Hoshino Ai put her head on the railing and said suddenly.

"There are many windy places." Mu Cuntaku was beside her.

"But it doesn't feel like this in another place."

"What do you feel?"

"Hmm..." The sun moved slowly, Hoshino Ai covered her head with her hand, she narrowed her eyes, "Maybe, it feels like I want to float away with the wind."

"That's it." Makimura Taku could understand that feeling.

Ai Hoshino turned her head to look at him, wondering what she was thinking, and turned back again.

The two looked at the white clouds floating in the sky, and no one spoke.

"It's so annoying." After a while, Ai Hoshino said.

"Still annoying?" Makimura Taku glanced at her.

"definitely."

"What can you say to make you feel better?"

Hoshino Ai snorted, then smiled at him and said, "If you ask me like this, what worked before doesn't work anymore."

"Then don't say anything?"

"Don't say anything..." Hoshino Ai thought about it and said, "You want to stay silent like this until dark? Mucun."

"It's not impossible."

"I just 'stomach hurts.'"

"Looks like it should have been a bigger lie from the start."

"Aren't you very honest? That's nothing."

"It's not me who lied anyway."

"That's right." Ai Hoshino said with a straight face.

"Besides," Mu Cuntuo looked at the blue sky, "I don't hate lies, I'm the only one who is honest."

Hoshino Ai smiled: "Say something like that again."

"what happened?"

She turned around, her long hair danced lightly, her little hands were crossed behind her, and she stepped forward obediently: "Lie!"

"Really." Makimura Taku turned around and leaned against the railing.

Hoshino Ai stopped in her tracks and looked up at the high ceiling. Her tone became very calm, but her words carried complex and turbulent personal emotions: "I just think it's a lie."

Makimura said, "That's a lie."

Ai Hoshino faced him again, smiling triumphantly.

The golden sunlight spread between the two of them like tinfoil, and Takumi Makimura's shadow extended to a distance of one meter in front of Ai Hoshino.

"But." Makimura Taku said.

Ai Hoshino gave a slight snort, staring at him intently.

"If B Komachi only comes here, next..."

"I don't know the details." Ai Hoshino interrupted him with a lowered voice.

"That's it." Mu Cuntuo said ponderingly, "President Saito, he should have other preparations at the beginning, right?"

"President..." Hoshino Ai had no confidence, "I haven't heard him say that."

"so."

"Yeah." She quickly responded.

"You don't have to think so much." Mucuntuo told her, "The result hasn't come out yet, and there are still opportunities."

"I hope so too..." Ai Hoshino murmured.

Makimura Taku shook his head and smiled.

He couldn't remember how many times he said this sentence: "You are Ai Hoshino."

That one said time and time again that she was amazing, that she wanted it all, that she was the most greedy girl in the world.

Up to now, he has exposed his fragile and wavering side time and time again.

Even her self-confidence is a lie.

After hearing this sentence, Hoshino Ai just looked at him blankly.

It seemed that only those eyes belonged to her, as for the rest of the body, they couldn't move.

"No matter what the ending will be, if it's you, you should be able to accept it calmly."

Hoshino Ai's pupils shrank suddenly.

At that time, I wish I had seen you at that time, Mucun.

The warm sun that got into the building brushed Ai Hoshino's eyes.

She took a deep breath, her chest covered by the white cloth heaved up and down, and her bright eyes reflected a bright light.

"Yes, I can accept it." She smiled.

Because those eyes are looking at me, Ai Hoshino thought.

From now on, please keep an eye on me.
