"Hmm..."After Qian Yu walked into the furniture store, he was startled by what he saw.

The whole furniture store was much more luxurious than the last time he came, and both the scale and the decoration had risen more than one step.

"It's you!" The new owner of Kasuga Noya, whom Chiba had seen before, said hello. "Want to buy something?"

"I'd like to order some security agencies," Chiba said. "Security for windows and doors."

When people are unhappy, it is said that they can recover their mood by burning money to buy things, and Qian Yu only now realizes that this is true.

"Okay," the shopkeeper's expression was a little serious. I'm not good at designing this kind of security mechanism, but I'll try my best, come with me. ”

"You don't have to design it," Qian Yu shook her head. "I have always been responsible for the design of this kind of mechanism, and the old shopkeepers usually do it for me according to my requirements."

"Ahh All right... Please follow me. Ifukubu! Take a look at the front desk! ”

Ifukubu? After Qian Yu heard this surname, he was slightly surprised.

He had only heard the surname once, but Chiba felt that this Ifubu was probably the one he knew.

"Yes!" As a familiar voice sounded, the red-haired woman stepped out of a backstage door that led to the workshop. "Ale?"

Ifubu Hachihiro looked at Chiba with some curiosity. "Hello..."

Really... In Kasuganoya's furniture store, if there is a clerk surnamed Ifukubu, Ifukubu Hachihiro, who lives in Okugiran, is naturally the most likely candidate.

"Why are you here?" Qian Yu wondered.

"Can't you do it on a whim?" Ifukube Hachihiro glanced at him. "I suddenly wanted to work part-time, and then I found this furniture store of Kasugano - ah, now this furniture store seems to have received two strong injections, so it has been upgraded to a wood products store. As long as it's woodwork, you can get it here. ”

"Little one, aren't you coming in yet?" The shopkeeper asked, standing at the door of the workshop, turning his head.

"Ah, I'm coming!"

…

In the orange house, the door was opened after the lock was issued.

“。。。” Qian Yu opened the door and took a look at it to find that there was no one in the room, so he breathed a sigh of relief - if Gray Yuan Ai was in the house now, Qian Yu didn't know how to face her.

Pouring a glass of white wine, Qian Yu took a sip as he walked up to the second floor with the glass and returned to his room.

It's okay when I didn't think about it, but once I thought about Gray Yuan Mourning again, my thoughts immediately became chaotic again.

Putting the wine he had only drunk on the bedside table, and throwing his bag onto the chair, Qian Yu lay down on his own bed.

I couldn't stop caring about her, and her appearance recurred in my mind, especially her faint smile.

This is more than 17 years, more than 6,000 days, 150,000 days, 131 seconds, I have never experienced emotions in 131 seconds—complete confusion, chaotic thoughts that come from nowhere... These emotions spread like a plague.

Qian Yu glanced at the wine glass in the afterglow and sighed.

Just like Li Bai said, is it more sad to raise a glass to pour sorrow?

Next, Chiba lay on the bed like a corpse, only his eyelids occasionally closed and moistened his godless eyes—proving that he was still alive.

What kind of existence is it for himself?

Impressions of her... Erudite, very mature in thought... Belch... Looks good, too... In addition to the occasional harsh complaining, the temper is also very good.。。。

But even so, it was a kid ten years younger than himself! Seventeen-year-olds like a seven-year-old? Crazy, right? Humbert hasn't done that either, has he? (Humbert, the male protagonist of the novel "Lolita", marries the landlady because he is infatuated with the landlady's daughter...) Yes, this classic 1958 novel is probably the inspiration for "Father's Love Like a Mountain"... ）

That's right, it's ten years old...

Qianyu's expression suddenly relaxed. There is such a moat as ten years old.,For the time being, I can convince my heart to calm down.。。。

If you still like her after ten years, then let's talk about it.

After all, if you can change back, you will basically have to say goodbye to everyone, including Gray Plains, so you don't have to worry about it. If you don't look back, why don't you forget. Tomorrow and night, you are no longer strange.

If you don't change back in ten years...

If you don't change back, after spending another decade of unnutritious student time, she and Gray Yuan will probably be 17 years old in mental age. If fate really drove him down this path, then he would choose to follow his heart.

Qian Yu sat up from the bed and took a deep breath, his eyes no longer confused.

This matter has nothing to do with me in the short term, so don't think about it now.

Chiba felt a little hungry and decided to go downstairs to the kitchen to get something to eat.

When he opened the door, Gray Plains, who was holding food, happened to pass by his door, apparently intending to go back to his room.

The two men looked at each other.

Although I cleaned up my mood, I found that the impact of my heart on Gray Yuan's mourning was difficult to eliminate. Qian Yu didn't know how to face the gray plain mourning now. The gentle expression that he had used most often to Gray Yuan before had now turned into a flame that scorched Qianyu's heart, and he was really afraid that the emotions he had managed to hide would burst out again.

Calm down, calm down.

The corners of his mouth that were about to be raised were immediately suppressed, replaced by a mechanized polite expression.

Then, both of them immediately looked away and looked in other directions.

Gray Yuan Ai stopped for a moment and continued, and Qian Yu walked out calmly as if he hadn't seen anything after Gray Yuan Ai left.

Both of them have their own secrets, which are like a high platform rising under their feet. In each of them, they and the other have such insurmountable obstacles. But as soon as any one of them tells his secrets to the other, the two towers will be placed side by side in the hearts of both of them, and the so-called insurmountable obstacle will cease to exist.

However, no one will. After all, if you tell your story, they will definitely think that they are crazy. Frankly, there may be a 0.00001% chance of success, but it also means that there is a 99.99999% chance of creating a gap between yourself and the other person that can never be bridged. After all, even if the other party doesn't think that he is paranoid, he will probably retreat because of the age difference between the two parties.

Although it is likely that you will only lose everything if you wait, if you find it out now, I am afraid that it will mean losing it immediately.

Let this dream be done for a longer time, even if it is just a dream, just a dream with no hope, let this dream wake up a little later.

A sigh appeared at the same time in the kitchen and in the room where Gray Plains mourned.
